occurateW defined, and the actual course cf evtuts depends on causes still very imperfectly known. The seizure of the Principalities of the Danube by Russia, and th tone of Prince MenschikofFs mission, which lel to thtt invasion, were undoubtedly duig acts of aggrssi j!i; an I hi I Russii been able to follow tip the policy shn then first avowed by a vi-orous and immediate attaiK on Lonstinti'' pi ana t.ie itiritisn empire, ii would not here been e&sy for ths Wes tern powers, at this time, to oppose er effectual birrier to her progress. Rut Russia, after having committed an act of lawless agression which roused all the oth?f Stites of Karops to resistance and hostility, stoppra short on the Dint oa, either for the want of tht means or 01 resoiuiion to iae aavaniace 01 ner f t . i r t suenoriiv a; mat moment, ane nau at-1 rjidy gone too fr for the maintenance of peace -she did too little for success in war. The interval wliich elapsed since the pisiage of the Pruth, enabled Turkey to assemble a large army and improva ner mimary position on e Dinube and the Balkans, while the Wes-: - -1 . . . . tern Powers have occupied the Black Sea and the Baltic, and their armrs arc on their way to the theatre of war. Thus, in fact, the war, which began by a bold but useless step of aggression, seems destined to assume at a very early period, on tha part of Russia, a defensive rather than an offensive character. In point of military tactics, it becomes a serious question whether Russia can attempt to a lvdi;ce upon tho centre of Turkey in Europe, in the presence of the forces

But we .are not informed that anything of this kiad has yet beun. These jnilitarr obstacles are by no nean3 th? most fcrmibla which the Ern,.eror Nicholas has to su.rnonnt. Tr.e hinguige and attitude of the uman powers, though not yet entirely satisf.ctory to u3, is far less so to him. JI has palpably fjiled in obtaining not only their co-operat'ou, but even their neutrality. He sees that those Governments which he regarded as his firmest a'liei, have been driven by his misconduct and by a sense of their own interests and indapendence, to sign protocols identifying their policy in principle with that of the powers who have already declared war against him. Although he affects to regard with scorn the popular judgement of free nations, he eannot be ins.nsibl. to the fact that his policy has tetn .condemned throughout the world, and that from the confines of Finland to thozs of HuDg.ry. an ardent desire has awakened in Europe to shake off the incubus of Russian supremacy. In return, therefore, for tho menaces he addressed a year ago to Turkey, he is menaced with the lcs3 of the dearest objects of Russian policy. The Baltic is entered by a fleet of matchless power, and. th. Scandinavian nations on either cost of the Sound, hail with enthusiasm the flag of Napier and the .lotting bulwarks of Eng Jnd. The Ilanie Towns ftictly forbid

atitmpltasupply the enemy with !r(,nUab:id of v,ur. The Courts of Northern Germany, ami possibly of fome ! other northern Slates at- reminded that

j if they give way to their private svmpa- ! thy with the Russian alliance, they will forfeit the confidence of their subject?. and that even the ncutraliiy they seek to . liUUl illC 1 I 1 II I J I'all lit B 13 KJ I ty ot the pt rope is raised to its highest pitch. Th. last propositions from St. Petersburg amount to en offer to evacuate the Principalities in exchango for th withdrawal of the fleets from the Black Sea and the B.tsphorus; and. although the Emperor Nicholas cannot for a moment have I supposed tha : the Wf etrn Powers would Russia at a more convenient season, yet this proposal has probably been made to satisfy the most pressing demand of the (ierman powers and to detach them from the Quadruple Conference. It is important to note that since the rejection of these terms by France and Kurland, tho last protocol of the Four Goernrnent6 has nevertheless been signed; and we hare ye: j, P6tn ,vhat tj.e nfxt move of u.e K'lisun cabinet rill 5ft on the re ceipt of ihis i nteltifeaee. While Russia is thus driren to con tract her pre tension and to fall back on the defensive, r.fter threatening the Porte with summary veangence, the policy of the Western Powers which was strictly defensive it first, and is still defensive in principle, has gradually led them to ; rPSOive upon more offensive Operation. CJ r. ...i... v.,.?; 0 , r ptace consistent with the general inter ests of Europe and tho safety cf tha Turkish territories. England and Franc aro compelled to attack her, and to inflict unon her 8ub;Pcls :n thft Bal.:c ftnil p,lftfk i Sea a portion of ihoie etile which Rus .;. h.a sn .pUntlnMr ;r,fi;,.ta,t n - - sia has so unrelentingly intlicted on oth era. It is, indeed, stated in Paris we know not with what truth that a formal offensive and defensive treaty has at length been signed between the Western Powers. Be this as it may, it is certain that England and France cannot lay down their arms until they have effectually prevented the possibility of a repetition of these outrages. Had tho Fwing of Prussia signed the Quadruple Convention T.-hen it was proposed to him, such an arrangmnt might hava had the effect ; Nicholas is iustlr emosed. But as thai a Convention was defeated by the intrigues of the Court of Berlin, we ara pe.fectly free to take such a view of the case as ou: policy suggests, and the success of our arms may justify. At present all these causes, partly military and partly political, tenil to prolong for a while the suspense which hangs like a thunder cloud over Europe. To-morrow the cloud may fall, and the first results of the war will clear away all that Is still indefinite and obscure. Genius rushes like a whirlwind talent n;nrchs like the cavalcade of heavy men and iiCT7 horses cleverness skims like a stvollov? n a summer evening with a sharp shrill nCte and a sudden turning. Tho man of gentuS dwells with men and with nature; the mat; of talent in his study; but tho clever man dances here, thero and every where, like a . butterfly in a hurricane; striking evrV-S 8nJ enjoying nothing, but to light t90 be dashed to pieces. The man of. talent will attack theoriesthe clever man will aesail the individual and slander private character. But tha man of real genius despises both, he needs none, he fears none, he divts in himself; shrouded in the consciousness of hia strength; he interferes with none, and walks forth nn example that 'eagles fly alone, they aro but sheep that herd together- ft is truo that should n poisonous worm cross his path he may tread it under his feet; should n cur snarl at him he may chastise it; but he will not, cannot attack the privacy of another. Cltvar men write varies, men of talent write proso, but the man of genius writes p oetry.

Do you see thai beautiful girl spinning round in tho vnlt2 with that Austrian attache the crystalized f'jreigner opposite to you, who is such a revolving pillar of diamonds? YeS. see the lovoly blond if jou meet her with the bare arms and naked shoulders; a custom that by courtesy, is called full dregs. 'What a rate she is goin nl! Precisely, the TimVs steam engin is, in quickness, c SlotV coach compared to her!

Why. as long a3 .lie cap, till four cr fivo in tho nmrnifi till .vax nd!e begin t.. dicop, till the musicit ns have nearly played themselves to sleep, until ehe has not a partner left to dance with, and then, loath to leave. . ho goes unwillingly home to begin the same dance again the following e vening. How often does this occur? Four or fivo and sometimes six times a week; and frequently there are two or thrre balls on th. same evening, and she ha been to a concert a pic nie or matinee, perhaps, in the 'day time. What, only think of the exercise. Well, that is something, to bo sure and if the c.!culaticn could be mada, it i . I ... .1. i is probable it would be ascertained by the j most generous cabman's incasuro, that that young lady does not dance less than twenty miles iu the course of an even ing and that is only allowing at the rate of four miks an hour, which jou will acknowledge is absurdly moderate for human waltzing. Multiply this by six and you will have the sum total of 120 miles dancing by i youn lady iu the period of one week. And this, recollect, i independent of fetes, fancy fairs, flower shows an 1 other amusements that demand some degree of exercise during tho day. And now. do you know who this young lady is who dances her 120 mi!e3a week? Who is it who goes through an amount of labor only equaled by the poor fellows who walk their thousand miles in their thousand hours? You will never guess, and so I do not mind telling you. She is the same young lady whom we saw stretched out at full length on the sofa, who looked so weak that ho would have fainted if any one had nsked her to walk across tht 6trret; ytho was so ner vous that sho could Lot bear the slightest noise, or endure the small. st keyhole of fresh air; who was so woe begone that she could not talk, laugh or open her yes, or touch a singl thing; so helpless that she could not havo moved off the couch by herself, not even if the house had been in flames; who looked in fact such a lack-n-daisical bundle of shawls and prostration, that you must have doubted in your own mind whether she could ever stand upright again on her two legs. Yes. sir, that young lady whoso prowess you have been wondering at this evening is that same poor, delicate creature; and allow me to say, sir.

Professor Haddock :hu eloouentlr discourse? concerning the seus.s: The senses are the most astonishing pans of nature. What can surpass in mystery, the familiar act of vision, in which this little ball of painted humors, as it turns at will in its socket, now traverses the cope of Heaven, and holds converse with the stars, and then gathers in its contemplations to concentrate them upon an insect's wing, or the petals of a flower. The eye in fact creates the blut arch above us, aad spread, the colors upon the iky, paints the fields, and sees the rainbow in the clouds. There is no arch above, no color in the sky, no rainbow in the clouds. They are the magic wonders of the aye itself. And the ear, what is the power it possesses to wave off the air into music, and fill the world, which else had been silent ever more with the sweet harmo nies of nature and of man. Nor is thetouch less marvellous alive all over, and in the seemingly coarse and clumsy finger's ends possessing a delicacy of perception, n minuteness of observation, an etherial sensibility of which the eye itself is incapable. So there are the phenomena of life in the human body, so unsconciously prodceed that weknowtnot of their health, and the complicated action of all this machine, all so quiet and noiseless, ax to be unthought of and unsuspected, till some accident disturbs or jars. Truly wc are fearfully and wonderfully made. The Chita Trade. We believe the time is not far distant when a large portion of the tr.de of Northern and Central Indiana, which has heretofore been poured into the lap of Cincinnati, will be given to Chicago. To bring this about seams to ba the determination of the business men of the latter city. The following from the Chicago Tribuno contains an inkling to that effect: The merchants, especially of Northern Indiana, would much advance their interests if thay would come to Chicago and make their purchases instead of Cincinnati.

'Alu.! how fallen how abject!" Louisville Courier. Demnil- cf the Air.rrirnn Sinkt. r cunrcriiin? rafca. Correspondence the Loailon Times. Madrid, April 13, 1S51. The Gazette appears with an extremelylong "exposition"' to the Queen, followed by two Royal decrees and a host uf regulations relating to the i.land of Cuba. The object of these is to establish a registration of slaves, which, it is balieved will prove an efficacious check upon the importation of slave, from Africa, to encourage marriage among them, and to permit the importation of free labor Spanish, Chir.tse, or from Yucatan. The alleged motives ol these decrees are the scarcity of laborers in Cuba, the desire ef the Spanish Government strictly to ob serve treaties, to prevent trade in slaves, and avoid disputes with England, and the wish to increase the amount of the island's productions. There will not be wanting persons who will look for other motives behind thesa, and behold in the above measures a hint thrown out to the United States. The Spanish feeling with respect to Cuba is that it must either continut Sjianish, er become Negro, and that they would sooner emancipate the blacks and let the Island be converted into a second San Domingo, than see it fall into the hands of tha Americans. The present decrees seest to indicate a desire to increase the free population of the island, perhaps as a counterpoise to tho American settlers; and itmay possibly also hava the effect of improving the condition and lightening the load of the negroes As regards putting an end to the slave-trade, that must always e'epend more on the conscience of the Captain-General for the time being, thftn on laws made in Madrid. It is stated that the American Minister has demanded of this Government the recall of Captoin General Pezuela, nnd that the officer who succeeds him should have power to settle upon the spot such disputes as that arising out of the affair of the Black Warrior. A large sum of money is also said to have been demanded, but the amount named is so disproportionately large that I abstain from mentioning it.
