Show agn 11 1 1 igli r through gh the courtesy of elder eider john W young we are enabled to furnish our readers the following interesting vi fay lay ard 3rd 1865 DEAR DER JOHN W YOUN YOU N since writing to yew from liverpool I 1 have you yon arg probably aware appointed to a accompany 9 span oud bro ge ra IV P to austria in accordance with this is appointment we left london on the lith of january and arrived here on the of the same month stopping in rotterdam two days in munich one day and in salzburg one oile day since our stay here I 1 have tried to 0 forward the interest of the cause which we represent the universal sway and dominion of the mother of abominations has bound her children not only hand and foot batso but so that they can not even wiggie wiggle and there Is a natural apathy which ch nearly all have to a religion which requires men to do right and an utter ignorance among all classes of the bible and und its contents I 1 believe that thirty nine fortieths of the people never have read the bibi d a large proportion pr of them thiem never see W one the religion which the people have just suits them as it requires nothing on their part but to ba be ignorant and to leave their souls in the hand handi of the priests who are supposed to know all the mysteries of the kingdom and can call send souls right into heaten for the consideration of a lew few the catholic religion 13 19 admirable in all its for the accomplishment of its purposes and worthy of its author who really ought to have a toast drank to him for his strenuous efforts in pro producing dueing such sueh a chef I 1 will close my coiner comments ruts rits on this thil point olat for fear my may inay be too manifest gest rest I 1 spend my timo time in reading schiller goethe the bible in german tim the latter is the only re figous book of any description which we have with us and the newspapers of this city and I 1 go 0 a strolling in the public gardens and parks with with which vienna richly abounds nearly every afternoon I 1 had the honor of seeing their imperial majesties the emperor and empress of austria a short time ago together tb gether with a large number of the austrian nobility As his imperial highness was on this occasion bareheaded I 1 had a good opportunity of taking a and a survey of his bis head and I 1 must say that I 1 was considerably disappointed in him the empress Emp rests Is handsome and wore on this occasion a dress the trail of which reached readied out some home twelve to fifteen feet behind and was wits carried by two servants the other ladies ladled of the court were breed dres ed in the same manner there Is not llie the same mame exclusiveness with tho the austrian nobility tv ax am with the english the emperor olten otten rides ride gut without any attendants and X L yesterday saw his daughter the archduchess atch arch duchess duchess gisela walking around in the garden amongst the people attended by her governess vienna is bee becoming orning one of the handsomest cities in ili europe the old part of the city Is built very compact the street streets fl are so narrow that persons can carry on a chit chat from one window to that of the opposite neighbor the houses are very high and large there are houses in vienna lich lieh which kich contain 2000 inhabitants every house is entered from an inner iriner court to reach which one has to pass tIl rough through a large lare doorway leading from the street anese larger doors aro are shut throughout the city precisely at 10 pm and oile ofie one has to pay to get in alter that time they say that this is a precaution against thi thieves ves and robbers but I 1 think it is a money donop monopoly oly as the receipts of the siper isper geld door money are very large old vienna was waa forni formerly eny surrounded by an un enormous wall and moats the city in its growth crowth has spread itself outside these walls and lilt felt lext tile the old town surrounded by a hollow circular city it was resolved in december 1837 1877 to ju tear down town the wall nil fill tip up the ditches and huilda build n fashionable street in the place thereof the old city and is called ring street alter F even seven years of labor tearing down what it ii required generations to build the tild work wa was s finally completed con and the street thrown open to the public day ay before yesterday timid great festivities and dis display desplas pias plaS in which the he imperial family faintly and a large number of the nobility participated bro P and I 1 also joined ourselves to the gap gaping kaping rig ilg multitude to get to see their imperial highnesses ac c which we succeeded in doin A portion of this new street is already built up with palatial residences similar to the I 1 in paris parts and the rest will wili be soon to produce all ali this splendor there are about as ai many women employed to perform the drudgery tich such A as rum digging picking wheelin g barrows mix mixing ing mortar carrying carrying bricks ac as men which curses cu r s Cs the whole thing in my estimation and throws ta i rows s iv dark mantle over the whole fabric there are e tho thousands mands lands of proud women here so haughty that they will arcely scarcely bc deign to trend tread on these streets which their own sex x have toiled and sweated to build admirable consistency people talk about slavery in america hut but there is a slavery in europe as degrading as menial as poisonous leonous to society and an as damnable arn ain nabie in the eyes of god as ever curs cursed the soil of the south and in my y estimation more so for lle ile lie the slaves here are of our own it color and god has ha 4 never said to them nor to to their fathers gaser iaser a servant of servants shall thou be this sivery slavery does not extend to the body alone but also to tile thie mind and spirit there are as many people in austria who can neither rend nor write as am there are arp negroes in the same condition in the south and this ignorance is controlled and directed into t fhe the ile lie channels of superstition bythe by the whore of the whole earth for fear you may get a wrong impression I 1 will here state that among the better class classes education Is very highly cultivated and when a man has a good education in austria it ls is very thorough but there are in austria about slavs or sla sia vales who are but a few degrees elevated in the seale scale of being above the american indians and some of them will compare favorably with pali pah edes of washington agton county this class form excellent food for tife tue enormous austrian army which in times of peace numbers the principal topic tople afloat here liere now is the as damnation saM nation of president lincoln I which created quite a stir tl r throughout all europe erp and ad nearly all th the aeu european r throughout governments overn ments have addressed letters of condolence to the several american ministers residing in the their irrespective respective governments jt it Is wonderful ho thoroughly union everything has been in europe since the fall of richmond and the apparent complete success of northern arms papers which were fire tire eat ing defenders of the southern cause have turned their coats and ina una ind n see what a horrible t thing h 1 ug slavery Is 18 and ana raise is the hue and cry d down 0 wn with the rebellion what a charming thing popularity Is methin methinks hs if lee had given grant a sound thrashing thras hg and sherman had been driven back tile tilo tone would have been hurrah for the southern confederacy Ton down with the northern tyrants they knew the american republic could not standi stand well give them an example of a government overna nten in the empire of mexico emperor 3 max f ax is the boy to show them a thing or two I 1 lilt I 1 I 1 I 1 ac ac ac c true to the old maxim one must howl with the wolves 11 the european pr pressas press essis ls now of the opinion that thel american G ON mm ent Is ls some pumpkins epkins 11 and not a few fear tear 1 that I 1 lie the d drunken ake n tailor tallor from ten nessell nessa will after he has dispatched the southern rebellion lay rough hand hands on mexico and canada as indemnities for the damages caused by their respective governments irr lie giving iving ald aid and support to the I rebels 1 P before the prest dents uenta death the papers teemed with surreptitious reports about the character of the vice president but since he be lias h aa become chief magistrate of a conquering nation his character does not look BO so black aa as it did but on the contrary he la is a pretty smart chap to raise himself from poverty le nty to auch a liel hecht ight and they think thinh they eav had a better make friends with him for fear lie will give them trouble the german papers throw all the blame upon england for lor giving countenance to the rebellion anil and say my that the southern knives and bayo bayonets nels neis were sharpened on english whetstones whet stones and england true to her policy Is now trying to make friends with the victorious north I 1 would not have you get the impression that I 1 am turning politician by no means I 1 arniere am merely a looker blooker on and it Is somewhat interesting to me roe to seg sea
