The Vienna Gazette of the 15th contain,. an Im-
perial Patent, dated Jan. 11, abolishing trial by jury
throughout the empire.
A letter of the same date informs us that the Drily
Netex has been prohibited in Austria.
Our correspondent writes:
VIENNA. JAN. 12,
l'roposals are in active preparation tor a new
Austrian loan to bo effected in the foreign market.
The urgent necessity of this measure to carry on the
machinery of government is stated to have been the
real cause of the retirement of Baron Krauss from
his lute post as Minister of Finance. Though an
able, hard working, honourable man, he had con-
trived one way and another to lose the confidence of
the commercial world, partly by his interference with
private interests and partly by the unlucky nature of
his financial measures, and, it being thus felt
on all hands that no radical improvements
could be carried out under his administration, it be-
came necessary to appoint him a successor. The
precise nature of the views of M. de Baumgartner is
not known, but it is rumoured that the new loan like
the former one will he employed chiefly to diminish
the present paper currency, and consequently to
raise its value in exchange tor foreign bills.
The second note of the President of the French
Republic to Prince Schwarrenberg contane .1 the
strongest assurances of a pacific policy, and the re-
appointment of M. de Flahault as minister of Franco
to this court, which is a good deal talked of, swim
to imply the best possible feeling between the two
powers.
There may be expected very shortly, if reports in
official quarters are to be believed, some fresh impe-
rial rescripts concerning the new organic laws of tho
, empire. They will refer chiefly to the privileges to
be regranted to the nobility, the encouragements
to he held out far entailing estates upon the eldest
sons, and the legal exemptions to be claimed by
them.
