AU STRIA.

A letter from Vienna in the Hamburg News says
that the Governments of Florence, Rome, and
Naples have already replied to the circular despatch
of May 18th, and express their perfect concurrence
in the views therein expressed by Austria.
The Breslaw Gazette asserts that Austria intends
to recal her Chargé d'Affaires from Turin, on ac•
count of a new note said to have been addressed by
Count Cavour to the Court of St. Petersburg, and
containing complaints against Austria, on account
of the attitude she has assumed with regard to Sar-
dinia.

centrating their troops. No amnesty had been granted
by the King of Naples on his tote-day. Poerio and
the political prisoners still continue to be subjected
to all the horrors of their imprisonment, and an
attempt of some five hundred political prisoners to
escape from the Bagni at I'rocida had been punished
with unexampled severity. At Rome on the Mb
a Consistory would be held for the election of five
new cardinals.
AMERICA.

The intelligence by the Asia, arrived on Monday,
states that Mr. Crampton was dismissed on the 27th
according to rumour, but nothing confirmatory of
the statement had been received. On the 28th, the
morning of sailing, a telegraphic message was sent
by the New York Consul to Washington asking for
intelligence, and the answer returned was " Nothing
later to communicate."

Mr. Crampton was said to be absent from Wash-
ington at his country residence.
The Washington correspondent of the New York
Herald, writing on the 24th ult., says :
Mr. Crampton was dismissed to-day, as I stated in my
despatch last night he would be. The thing was so quietly
done that but few even believe it now. Mr. Crampton's
despatch carrier left this afternoo.i with the answer of Mr.
Marcy to Lord Clarendon, which will go to Europe by
to•morrow's steamer. Senator Meson, of Virginia, de.
spatchett the news this afternoon to Cincinnati. Action with
regard to Crampton was promised before the delegates left
here for that city; indeed, it was positively demanded by
the friends of President Pierce before they would agree to
make a move in his behalf. The message to Congress is
expected tomorrow, and the official announcement will
shortly be made public.

This statement, however, is not confirmed by any
other of the New York papers.
The correspondent of the New York Daily Times,
writing on the 24th, says :
I have fresh information to-day which satisfies me
entirely that the Cabinet is a unit in the determination to
dismiss Mr. Crampton. The papers will be ready early next
week. At the same time a very conciliatory despatch is to
be addressed to Lord Clarendon, probably putting the dis-
missal chiefly on the ground of Crampton's personal com-
plicity in violating our laws, instead of because of the
British Government having violated our sovereignty.
And again on the 25th :

Secretary Marcy's despatch will be likely to cause a
sensation in England. It is believed that Crampton has
authority to give, and will give immediately on dismissal,
such orders to the British squadron at the West Indies as
will be likely to lead to a sudden collision. The President
contemplates a message to Congress on this subject to-
morrow. President Pierce will, doubtless, be glad of such
an occurrence, to draw the minds of the country off from
Kansas and the assassinations here.

The same correspondence of May 27, of the
Journal of Commerce, says :

The President's message on the enlistment and Cramp-
ton affair will be communicated to Congress to-morrow. It
was delayed for a day by additions.
Civil war has broken out in Kansas.
The Nicaraguan Minister bad protested against
the recognition by the President of General Walker.
Senn Marcoleta urges that nothing has occurred to
justify the acknowledgment of a state of things in
Nicaragua, which has been "created and maintained
by American adventurers who, more than once, have
been qualified by a highly-placed public functionary
as pirates, robbers, and assassins, whose conduct dis-
honoured the Union." He declares that this recog-
nition involves "the most flagrant violation of all
divine and human laws," but he trusts in God that
"the atrocious acts" of the Filibusters "will not go
unpunished."
