VIENNA, MAM! 30.—The Emperor has been confined main days to his bed with a fever bat is no recovered. It now appears certain that the occupation of the countries of Salzburg and Pawl ceded to Austria, is only retarded by the settlement of the indemnities claimed by Bavaria. The State Conference is now occupied, by order of the Emperor, with the important question, whether or not it would he for the advantage of Austria to create a marine for the protection of her flag in the Adriatic ? be greater part of the Council are of opinion that it will not be neces. sary ; and that it is sufficient to maintain a good understanding with Great Britain and the Porte, in which case our navigation is not likely to be molested. `clic last acsouuts from Turkey state, that the Ittoinaa Porte formally refoses to acknowied4: he inilepeoilance of the lonian lsles.

PARIS, APRIL 9-4 t Was lately annoubced by several intim-11s, and we repeated it onrselve•, that their Royal highnesses the D,il;L: and Matiarne the Duchess of Angoulerne had pail it visit to the , Duchess of Reggio, who lay in a few d;lys ago. The: probability of this statement, which howt.yer is not true, consisted in the well.known senti ments that animate Ail the princes of the Royal Family, in the gratitude which they feel, and which they love to manifest, for services rendered, in the estcetn which they so strongly profess for all great characters, particularly such as are elevated by a frank and loyal attachment to the good cause. But theJontnals neglected to oberve—and the ex cuse of this neglect is to be found in tie long inter •ropt ion of our ancient customs—they had not re fleeted, that the impnlse of princely sensibility is often restrained by what art. rall . rit the Laws of Etiquette—rigid la ss, 'reg !wed by decorum, the 'more exacting in their &lief Vance, because t h e y relate to external foruk, which are as liable to be, overlooked, as they are necessary be maintain ed and übserved. 'I heir Royal Highnesses were content with sending to enquire at the Ditches of Reggio's, thus reconcilinp,. the severity of de corum with time regard n'hich the first Princes of. the Blond may think they have to the elevnted rank of 'Marshal Doke of Reggio, and ►l;itlies - teent for . qtralities which elevate hitit stilt above his rank.

Mr. LAINn, the Chairman of the Chamber of Deputies, tendered his resignation to the King in Consequence of the debate which led to his leaving the Chair on the 8, h, as recorded in our transla tions from the Paris Papers yesterday. On the 9th, biiwever, he took his seat as usual, and a letter from the Duke of Ittcnectau was read, in which the King requested, and almost commanded IJAfIJIt to retain his station at least till the discus sions rut the Budget were clused. Should the present temper of the Chamber however conti nue, it is probable that the Budget Will not be gone through previous to some measure respect ing.t he Law of Elections being carried. The de bate on this subject was appointed fur Wednes day, and the remainder of the Budget for Ss , turday, (Thursday and Friday being holidays), aod the dispute resolves itself into this state, —the Chamber insists on passing a lawn for total elections, as in England, instead of re newal by fifths, and until they accomplish this purpose, refuse to terminate the Budget, or in other words, vote the supplies. Either the Mini sters and the Peers must yield, or the Chamber be dissolved and tbelornter, or et any rate it of this rupture. The trials for the escape of LAYALETTB ,COMB on the 22d.
