LONDON, TUESDAY, JUNE 23. rSTRLIN FLV.INCE. RINI F. the great catastrophe of 1861 i, Austria has completely and deservedly regained the sympathies of Western Europe•. And when we say " Austria " we mean that Imperial and Royal °civil tumid which was so long the personi- Scation of military and priestly despotism, RS much as the populations 50 long the victims of that dark and frivolous misrule. It is difficult to risilise the change that has come over the spirit of a blind and obsti nate Court since it learnt the uses of adversity and found the seed of a better future in a soil harrowed by calamity. Who can recognise in the FRANCIS JosErit of to-day the creature of a Ciumuilla, the pupil rather than the insister of a SCHWARZENBEIRI and a BACII Who can recognise iu his Empire the sacristy. the confessional, the guardroom of 1t4.)2 ' Who can rec•o„nise in the populations under Ws May the insurgents of and the sullen malcontents of that disastrous decade of re action from the comps 4 of Hungary to the Italian war of independence ? That Power which was the byeword of liberal Europe, the central type and Pxample of re tirus.ion and reaction, is now regarded with any and admiration by the liberals of France, with u loon sympathy by the liberals of denntiny, with confidence and hope by the forlorn I HZ vl <.f what WAS 04.!` P wit's attain tire soil err•ouraging iaternA by East snot TI rcuglu ut Et. rope, and :ravine* nicest thin au la:glued, the diseu.-sions ut the P.srl ia rut ut at Vienna and the' wine am I liberal premiums of legislation which are bringing Austrian instituti I into learnmay with modern civilization, are wangled with an intelligent and sincere solicitude. Under happier conditions and in a very different seat. from that of the Congress of Vienna and the Holy Alliance, Austria, since the decisive victories of her great German rival, his regained her old rank and authority in a State system funda mentally transmuted and renewed. The Emperor FRANCIS Josses has frankly surrendered himself to the inevitable change, and has pledged, not his word only—for the word of a Sovereign counts for little on the Continent -but the security of his Crown, to the maintenance of parliamentary in stitutions and the public liberties, and has chosen from among the exiles and rebels of his earlier reign the ministers and administrators of the new regime, under the presidency of an enlightened statesman who has no sympathy with a bitter and evil past and is responsible for none of its dis graces and its wrongs. Unfortunately it is not enough for M. DR Beusr and his colleagues to resolve to be liberal, peace ful, economical, and solvent for the future, when they find themselves encumbered at every step with the faults and follies of their irresponsible protheessent, with millions of public debt nu:k -ite:4ly incurred and recklessly squandered by the pride and vainglory of an absolute monarchy, for the sake of keeping hostile populations and alien provinces in subjection by a vast army of parade. The financial beggary of Austria is the legacy of Austrian absolutism, not like that of Italy, of a great experiment of national revival and reconstruction. The Parliament at Vienna, composed for the most part of men of serious intelligence and habitat of business, has already decided with equal energy and capacity such vital questions as the supremacy of the civil power and liberty of conscionce. It has sanctioned that reconciliation with Hungary which is the keystone of the new constitu tional Empire. Then CAMP the crucial test of its enlightened patriotism, the question of tarmac. How to bridge over the Apia of annual detieits how to escape an imminent bankruptcy ? By increased taxation? By the strictest re tiencliment in all brunches of the public expendi ture ? Found policy is sound finance; and the domestic and foreign policy of Austria, under the new rigime, so far as it was a policy of peace and liberty, was calculated to revive the credit of the State. Nothing but a policy of peace abr rid and liberty at home could insure retren-b -meld. A determined policy of retrenehment, especially in the indite," departments, would, perhaps, enable an Austrian loan to float in the money markets of London and Pan:. But meanwhile the problem of how to meet the preening &mantis upon the Treasury— how to make two ends meet from month to month —presented itself to the Parliament at Vienna. After insisting on the severe et retrenchment, and on a policy of peace and liberty, the legisla tors of the Reichsrath appear to have shrunk in stinctively from the facile but fatal temptation of of a loon, and, strong in the consciousness of their honest intentions, to have resolved to inflict a moral lesson upon those public creditors who had lent millions upon millions to the uses of an absolute military monarchy. Accordingly, in spite of the gentle remonstrances of the Government, the majority of the Reichsrath agreed totem the coupons I o f the public debt, in other words, to reduce the income of those foreign scripholders who had sustained by their subscriptions that despotic system which was shuttered at Solferino, and Jinully collapsed at Satlowa. This vote of the Austrian Reiehsrath, however intelligible and even defensible in their own point of view, was less likely to prove palatable in London and in Paris. At Amsterdam, it appears that our sagacious and fur-sighted Dutch friends had taken the precaution to provide before hand, as M. de BEUST puts it, for " these "risks and chances," by discounting, year by year, from the capital invested in Austria the interest exceeding 5 per cent. English mid French investors have not been so prudent, and it was lately represented to the Austrian Minister at the Court of St. James's, by a deputation of bankers and merchants, that this taxation of the foreign debt would affect very injuriously the credit of Austria. To this advice Count Areoxsri made the best reply he could in his new capacity as the re presentative of a constitutional Power. In an ably-written despatch, dated the 9th instant, M. DE Iteurr comes to the aid of the Ambassador, and pleads with " the City of London " against " exaggerated apprehensions." Ho states with much exemplary frankness all the diffi culties under which Austria labours in the attempt to emancipate herself from the errors and dangers of the past ; he excuses " the passions and jealousies of a young " Parliament," and admits on its behalf a certain want of " that self-possession " which experience gives under similar cir " eumstanses to the House of Commons." With ready tact and acuteness M. DE BEIIST appeals to Mr. GLADSTONE'S " wise precepts" and repeated eloquent denunciations of " the pernicious system of loans ;" he reminds us that " Rome was not " built in a day," and that if the Austrian Parlia ment will but balance its budgets, it may deserve the favour of the most eminent financial authori ties of the epoch. M. de BEEST'S strongest argument, as addressed to public opinion in Eng land is, that since it was impossible to impose new burdens upon the Austrian taxpayers there was no choice between a ratification of the measures proposed by the majority of the Parliament, or a coop d'etat—and that "There is no longer any reason for coups " tritat in Austria." M. DE BEEST therefore recommends " patience" and trust in the " incal " culable resources" of a peaceful, free, and re generated Empire. M. DE BEEST has made the very best of a bad case, and if he can convince " the " City of London" that he has curried to the utmost point retrenchment of expenditure in thosebranches of the public service which are least congenial to a policy of peace, we daresay his appeal to " patience " will meet with the indulgencv it de- SITNTS. TIIE CITY MKETINII. THE wliniruble advice given by Mr. Ptcgwtex to his followers to "sl t with the largest crowd" whenever they found themselves struggling amid rival li litienl hosts, was exceedingly difficult of accomplishment ut the Guildhall yesterday. The niost prudent visitor could not estimate on which side the it pponderuting strength of lung and muscle lay. The roughs unit the long-shore menboth did their spiriting with i,o good-will that each svelter in turn was niade to feel the impotence of one voice against hundreds, and when all was over a EXPRES, l•e riled sense of uproar. turmoil, assal pugitisin, was 1. ft ti cis the Milli,. 'lh.• reports !la. this morning's " opus add little to the pirticulars given in the Strand Faliticn of yesterday's Repress. A ft w mere gentlemen went through pantomimic gt slieuhstion to the meeting, and talked con dentially to the reporters; but the le ding incident of the day's riot W :t4 the personal scuffle we described last evening as taking place between the dignitaries on the platform, and the criticism it evoked from the mob. That a well known Couservativa• Alderman should, while panting anti bn•athless, be cheered fur his pluck, and be jocularly bidden to bind himself over to keep the pears.; that gentle men hitherto believed to be of ultra-pacific ten dencies should follow the navies , of the Game Chicken to Mr. Tools, and administer "stiff 'one" under waistcoats by way of constituting 01(.11180 VIM the physical champions of u great principle; and that neither the LORD MAYOR nor his friends, nor the people of opposite opinions were ismiitted to speak, ore incidents making rather a bitter commentary upon our remarks of last Saturday. We then declared the dignity of the City to be involved in the conduct of this meeting ; and we now maintain that dignity to have been remorselessly dragged in the dirt. Our outspoken protests against " lacking the meeting " were unfortunately dis regarded, and the result is the miserable fiasco I ecorded to-day. When newspaper correspon dents are able to give " half-a-crown and " a pint of beer" as the exact price paid to each unofficial disturber of the peace ; and can describe the altercation between the hirers and the hirelings as sexy in the public streets and taverns near Guildhall after the money was earned, " the " Loup MAYOR'S meeting to consider the Irish "Church" reaches depths of degradation men of all opinions must wish it to have escaped. THE QUEEN AND HER GUESTS. AT the Royal Breakfast yesterday everyone seemed to suffer from the atmosphere except the QUEIN.i, and her MAJESTY never looked better or stronger in her life. So true is it that " the " wish is father to the thought," that these words have been sometimes used convention ally; but no ono who passed the royal tent could fail to observe and rejoice over the more than healthy and happy—the radiant, beaming aspect of the QUEEN. At no period of her reign has her MAJESTY seemed in heartier spirits than while she was extemling a gra cious welcome to her guests yesterday. Tlu delicate loveliness of the Princess of WALES, and the cordial accord between her and her royal mother-in-law, were as manifest as ever; and if, to some minds, the canvas tents, the Tyrolean singers, the gay dresses of the ladies, and the in spiriting strains of the band, occasionally suggested a garden entertainment, of a type more popular than exclusive, this only heightened the enjoyment by the sub-flavour of piquancy it gave. The people whom, for numerical reasons, it was impossible to in. vite, regretted that the Breakfast was not given at Windsor, where thrice the number of yesterday's guests could be easily distributed about the grounds. But to those present the cultivated beauty and the comparative seclusion of the Buckingham Palace gardens made a fete there appear appro priate enough. It is worth remarking that although the male costumes were not so absolutely ludicrous as was feared, they were far from graceful or becoming. When will the Prince of WALES introduce the promised velvet, and so make the fashionable English gentleman a less absurd contrast to the bright colours and flowing gauzes of his wife and daughters than he was yesterday? MR. BARRY'S friends in the House of Com mons are determined to press for an inquiry into the circumstances connected with the late com petition of architects for the erection of the new law courts. Last night a petition from Mr. BARRY, praying for the appointment of a select committee, was presented, and on Friday next Mr. LOWE will move that the prayer of the petition be grunted. Mr. liforrnatr CHAMBERS on Thursday intends to inquire of the Film COMMISSIONER of WORKS " if the intention of the •' Government to appoint Mr. STREET (whose de " sign was approved by the judges for elevation " only), sole architect of the New Law Courts was " communicated to the Royal Commission, and " whether the royal commission has expressed any " opinion on the appointment." Mr. Bryrritcx also will ask whether the judges were unani mous in recommending Mr. STREEr's de sign as the best for external elevation, and will propose that the design be ex hibited in the library "in order that the House " may test the decision of the judges." Mr. E. W. PUGIN has a letter in this morning's Timm, the professed object of which is to support the selection of the- Government, but the effect of which is to throw discredit upon his old opponent Mr. BARRY. It is anything but edifying to find one architect writing to a public journal of another, that his design "is about as giddy, " puerile, and firework sort of a design as could " possibly be produced; there is positively not " one vigorous, sober, or manly line in it from ono " end to the other." What would be said of Mr. MILEAts were he to write to the Times in terms like these of a picture by Mr. Flinn Mr. GRANT DUFF intends to put to the PREMIER a question which has come to the lips of many within the last few days. The reports in the daily journals represented the right hon. gentleman to have used words in his speech last week at Merchant Taylors' Hall, to the following effect : " When we acceded to office the name of England " was a name of suspicion and distrust in every " foreign court and cabinet. There was no possi " bility of that cordial action with any of the " great Powers which is the only security for " peace, and in consequence of that want of cor " diality wars were frequently occurring." Mr. GRANT DUFF will ask Mr. DISRAELI on Thursday whether, when he made that statement, he was aware that, when Lord DERRY was forming his administration in 1866, his Lordship earnestly requested Lord CLARENDON, who had been Foreign Minister in the previous Government, to retain the seals of the Foreign Office ? Lord CIARENDON seems destined to be a source of diffi culty to Mr. DISRAELI in the nice maintenance of his relations with Lord CLAnEsuox's distin guished relative. On Saturday last the Rev. William Collings Mathinni, clerk, M.A., was instituted to the rectory of Dicklebergh, in Norfolk, on the presentation of the master, fellows, and scholars of Trinity College. DEATH OF THE DEAN OF KILLALA.—At his residstice, Brookview, Militia, on the 19th instant, the Veiy Bev. James Collins, D.D., Dean of Hillala, breathed his list. A distinguished scholar, he dedicated his great talents to the ministry. Ho soon became well known as miund divine and an eloquent preacher. At the time when evangelical doctrines wore unpopular ho was their firm supporter sad advocate. After some twenty years' active labour in the diocese of Bilmore, he was presented to the deanery of Killala.—DsOlus litemits9 EAANG. JUNE 2,t; Di: It et NT ENI 1'0114491 , • (THIS DAY.)

In the reason and conscience of this nation, judgment bassos(' against it, and its defeat are re sort to the last hope of a dincredited party and a failing 12141 , c that of staving off the inevitable verdict by raising every false issue that ingenuity can conceive, and putting every conceivable obtacle in the way of justice. All over England the misting's held on this subject are either limited to supporters of the establishment, like the one at the Cannon-street Hotel, or are assailed and disturbed by the noisy ruffianism of the district, organised to prevent any expression of opinion. The lifer seproaches the liberal organisers of London for having been thus surprised. There has been blundering remewheie; end these are not times when blunders ought to be tolerated by the chiefs of the party either in the City or elsewhere. The members of parliament for London, and the other distinguished liberals who appeared upon the platform, owe it to themselves and their cause to hold another meeting at once, and to take proper stops to en sure order. If they do not, the same cowardly tactics will be followed by the terries at the election, and it is better to stamp them out at once. The Telegraph would have the liberals throughout the country understand that the result of yesterday's meeting is in no sense a defeat of their party or an injury to their enure. It simply arose from the fact that one side is con fident and fearless, the other desperate and unscrupulous. Had the liberals followed the example of their opponents, and packed a meeting of their sworn adherents, there would havelbeen no risk of the fiasco of yesterday. TILE MAW LAW 001:11M. The award of the judges in the matter of the now law courta was, says the Times, that Mr. Street's outside wai the best, and Mr. Barry's inside. Mr. Barry's courts were the beat, but Mr. Street had put the best face on his. This was the very ordinary case of a man having to choose be tween two sisters, the one nenaible and good, the other pretty and perhaps witty. Most men prefer the latter, and that, it appears, is just what government has done. In so doing we are quite sure they will receive the sym pathy of nine-tenths of the British public, excluding, vf course, lawyers, frequent witnesses, and habitual liti gants. THE DOMAN CATUOLIC BISHOPS AND THE GOVERNMENT. It will be interesting to the Daily Ne,re to know what Mr. Disraeli could say in refutation of the insinuation that the government " waited for a considerable time for the purpose of seeing how far the bare offer of a charter for a Catholic university might be made to servo political exigencies." Lord Mayo is distinctly called on by the Irish roman catholic bishops to declare whether he holds the negotiations which have taken place between the government and the hierarchy to be at an end. The bishops declare that they did not break them off, and that they are willing to re-open them. If Lord Mayo ea r that the matter is absolutely terminated, there will be some plausibility in the suspicion that Mr. Disraias overtures to ultramontanism in March and his incendiary orangoism 114,Itine are electioneering tricks. We doubt if the English protestant/I will be such easy dupes as the Irish catholic bishops seem to have been. Vu Court. PECKINGIIAM PALACE, Joss 22. The Queen, Prince and Princess Louis of Hesse, Princess Louise, Prince Arthur, Prince Leopold, and Princess Beatrice, left Windsor Castle this morning at half-past 11 o'clock, and =rived at Buckingham Palace at half-past 12.

The Prince and Princess of Wales, accompanied by the Crown Prince of Denmark and Prince and Princess Louis of Heim, went to the St. James 'd Theatre yesterday evening. BREAKFAST AT BUCKINGHAM PALACE. Her Majesty the Queen gave a breakfast yes terday afternoon, from half-pad four to half-past seven o'clock, in the gardens of Buckingham Palace, where tents had been erected and preparations made for the occasion. The following royal visitors arrived shortly after half past four o'clock, and were received at the garden en trance of the Palma, by the Vice-Chamberlain, and con ducted to her Majesty's tent near the ornamental water: The Prince and Princess of Wales, accompanied by the Crown Prince of Denmark, and attended by Viscountess Walden, Lieutenant-Colonel Reppel, and Captain Lund. The Prince and Princess Louis of Hesse, attended by Baroness Glancy, Baron Von Rabenau, and Major Von Meese. Prince and Princess Christian, attended by Lady Susan Melville and Lieutenant-Colonel Gordon. The Duchess of Cambridge, attended by lady Geraldine Somerset and Major-General Lord F. Paulet. The Duke of Cambridge,attended by Colonel Tyrwhitt. The Prince and the Princess of Teck, attended by Lady Caroline Cust and Colonel Clifton. The Duc and Duchemie d'Aumale. The Duke and Duchess Philip of Wurtemberg, attended by the Countess Auorsperg and Baron Guttenberg. The Queen, accompanied by Princess Louise, Prince Arthur, Prince Leopold, and Princess Beatrice, conducted by the Lord Chamberlain, and attended by the Duchess of Wellington (Mistress of the Robes), and the Duchess of Roxburgho (Lady in Waiting), entered the gardens at 5 o'clock, and proceeded to her Majesty's tent. Refreshments were served in tents upon the ground, and also in the lower dining-room of the Palace. The bend of the 2nd Life Guards (conducted by Mr. H. Freehnert), and the band of the Grenadier Guards (con ducted by Mr. D. Godfrey), played alternately during breakfast. Bor Majesty's Private Baud was also in attendance, under the direction of Mr. W. G. Cuisine. The Tyrolese Singers wore in attendance, and had the honour of performing before her Majesty. The Earl Brownlow and Lady Adelaide Talbot, youngest daughter of the late Earl of Shrewsbury and Talbot, were married yesterday according to the rites of the Established Church, at Ford Castle, Northumberland, the scat of Louisa Marchioness of Waterford. Lady Marian Alford and a few relatives of both families were present at the solemnisation. In the course of the week the Earl and Countess Brownlow will go to Compton Winyatea, the Marquis of Northampton's seat in War wickshire, where they will remain a short time. On the 10th of July Mr. Fawcett will move, " That, in the opinion of this house, catholics, presby teriane, and other inhabitants of Ireland, will not bo placed in a position of equality, in reference to university education in that country, with those who aro members of the Established Church, until all religious disabilities are removed from the fellowships, scholarships, and other honours and emoluments of Trinity College, Dublin." As an amendment to Mr. Fawcett's resolution, Sir Joseph WHenna will move to leave out all after the word "until," in order to insert the words "Her Majesty's subjects in Ireland, of various religious denominations, more particu larly catholic@ and presbyterians, shall be afforded by the state equal advantages in respect to education, and equal protection for their religious faith, to those now afforded by Trinity College, Dublin, to the protestant Inhabitants of keland." la& F6REIGN N E WS.

According to the Mrre.tneurinHee of Vienna the old Prince exclaimed. with tears in his eyes -" fiervia, my dear country, what trials have you yet to pees through !'• The effect pro duced on the Prince of Montenegro by the crinin also appears to have been immense. According to the Debaffe of Vienna, the Sovereign of the Blank Mountain, on being informed of the murder, on mediately left his rosidenee at Cettigur and shut himself up in the castle inhabited by his mother • thinking he was there alone in safety from the• re volvers of the assassins. A letter from Vienna, in the North I.:osier', C.f.- rrsrvvdenre, says: I Lave reason to believe that nu has just mule over tures at Vienna, Paris, and London, atte ding the d tire of the St. Petersburg Cabinet to participste iu the undar ntanding between the three powera concerning event.; ani eventualities in Servia. A personage of great importance arrived in Vienna yesterday• namely, Mischa, the richest man in all Servia, who could buy up the whale princi pality with his gold, and who has been long thought to expire to the dignity of prince. In the meantime he his built, at Belgrade, a magnificent palace, which he has prevented to his country, and which is now the Academy. He boa no NMI, but one of his daughters is married to the president of the Senate, Marinovitch; the other, to Pierre Karageorgevitch, accused, rightly or wrongly, of at least com pli c ity i n the eesssieslion of Prince Michael.

Ile said : —"Rome must be a holy spot. The sanctity itself of the ground we tread imposes upon each of us the duty of edifying the world by his exaniple. God weighs in the balance of justice our sufferings and our acts. May it be said of modern Rome : what she does not possess by arms she holds by religion." On this occasion the l'ope has accorded an amnesty to all prisoners, excepting those con demned for theft or forgery- having less than six months to suffer ; those whose sentences have further to run will have one-third of the period deducted, provided it dues not excc,sl y,• Political prisoners are included in the act of cle mency.

Tampa, and an intimate friend of the late Cardinal Andrea, is said to possess several p:gx•rs in the handwriting of the late cardinal. lie communi cated some of these notes to an advocate w'ao has just published a work on the cardinal. Of the cardinals in general he says, " They are almost all black and absolutist in opinion." Cardinal Iteisach—ln respect for the Jeciite he is one of the blackest of all. Hu is one of the prineijul authors of the syllabus. Cardinal Barn iho—ldes an ile to the Papacy, but will never succc..l. hypocritical, and mediocre. Patrizzi—ln reality an arrant fool. Torsi—Archbishop of Pisa, essentially film k, and a downright enemy of Italy. Paunebiauce—l3 ex tremely anxious for the I'apacy ; but (Juidi, who is an abler man, has a better chance. There is reason to believe that the next Pope will b 3 a monk--Ouidi the Dominican, or Pannebianco the Cur defier. This Paunebianco is a Sicilian. lie is a Sixtus Quintus. He keeps himself in the back ground, and in reserve. Of all the Sacred College he is the member whose secret iutrigues require most watching. Ho says he is quite black, but in reality he is capable of becoming a Clement XIV. He does not like the Jesuits. In fact, no monk does ; thut is the ride. There are two men in the household who are indispensable to the Pope—Mgr. Cenni, his trainbearer, and Filippani, a laie. Antonelli has always the same confessor as the Pope. If the Pope changes, be changes also. The present sonic •sor [1066] is the Jesuit hither Migitardi ; a geed man, cold, a censor of the prelates whose little scandals he ferrets out, in conjunction with Mgr. Cenni. The Pope listens to the gravest charges of immorality, requires to be told the minutest details, but never takes severe measures. There are at least 20 prelates whose lives arc a scandal. In general, the clergy are more pure than is believed. The prelates who give most scandal by their ecceutric imme talities are three. The Pope is perfectly aware of this. There are thirty pages of notes in the same style. (THROUGH RR. REUTER'S ActExcr.) AUSTRIA. VIENNA, Jv 22, EvE:frsa.
