AUSTRIA AND RUSSIA.

DESPATCH OF PRINCE GOATCHAHOFF.
T. PETERSBI7RO, Axiom 2.

A despatch has been published from Prime I
Gortchakoff to Councillor de Knorring, Charge-
d'Affaires at Vienna, upon the 27th ult., with
regard to the note of Count Rechberg of the 19th.
The despatch expresses surprise to find that
Count Rechberg has hinted the poesibilityof Russia
entertaining a reservation, and proceeds :
"If this viewof the subject has been put forward
by Count Rechberg from a desire to remove all idea
of a separate agreement, which might be judged
incompatible with the engagements contracted by
Austria, and with the point of departnre with which
she connects her measures, let us hasten to bear
witness that no agreement whatever has taken
place between her and ourselves upon the subject
of the late overtures. We have deduced no ap-
probation from the Austrian note of the 18th
June, and have anticipated her refusal of a con-
ference. We have not dreamt of establishing any
assimilation between Galicia and Poland, but tra-
dition, precedents, and the assistance received by
the insurgents from Galicia attest their common
interests, and show the necessity of an understand-
ing between the three northern courts.
The proposition for a oonferenoe was concei►ed in
a friendly spirit, in conformity with the relations
and interests of the two courts, and we should re-
ject any different interpretation."
The despatch terminates with an expression of
Prince Gortchakoa's regret that the note of Count
Rechberg presages a different impression.
