The measures which she sew has in execution are two-fold :—the ooe for organising a national key en Inesse, by calling out the entire male population of the country, capable of bearing anus; and •he other for establishing, by ballist„ en army of re serve of tifty-two battalions, or sy,ooo ineu, to be exercised at given periods, and to recruit the regi ntents of the film. These arrangements were en forced with such promptitude, that the contribu tion of Vienna to the cony of reserve, amount ing to 750 raeu, wan raised in a week. The Government has declared these measures to be purely intended for the defence of the Empire ; but a variety of circumstancesconnected with them, so strongly indicated an approaching rupture with France, et the date of the lust accounts, that the Austrian treasury bills had experienced a consider able depreciation, and numerous speculations had been undertaken, in anticipation of a war. The French Ambassador.

With some modification the proposal lies been accepted, and seine corps of Prussians are in motion; but the French have not given up any of the fsrtresses, and the orders "teatinued on the 30th ult. fey the formation of trench Camps near Havelberg, et Ruppin, and at (.:harlottimburg.

But we annex more weight to .the avowed opinion of Sir JOHN GORE, igthat he considered Durowe's defeat as inevi table," than to the letter in question. A very *holt time will pa obably relieve our anxiety on this most interesting point; but in the interval it is impos sible to forget the recent defeat of the Spaniards ou the nth of June, in their attack upon I)veoser's .teeny, which, it seems to be admitted, is seveuteen thousand stronz.
