boudinent of two hours, the city of Olen seerendmed

The Minister of War at Vienna has addressed the
following circular to all the generals in command:
Complaints have bean made for some title in regard to
military expressions which are calculated to dkquiet the
public, by making the sentiments of the imperial army
appear hostile to the institutions which his Majesty has given
his people, and this refers especially to the corps of °facers.
It is my imperative duty to maintain in Ike army unity of
sentiment, conscientious discharge of duty, and unbounded
obedience to the orders of the august monarch, consequently
also respect for the constitutional institutions of the state,
and net to sufhr any one to speak spinet the will laid down
by the socersign, or against the new form of the state. I
easidentlystspeet that in future it will be considered a leered
ditty to the throne and to the country to avoid every rise to
sosmations of this kind, and that all the officers will act in
this respect to all their subadinates.

A deputation of the national guard yesterday

the city was sufficiently protected by troops. The
reply of the Minister of War was as follows
" There are at Vienna and its vicinity 40,000 men,
and, in case of need, these may be easily reinforced."

body. About 40 soldiers belonging to the so-called
garde di, ro•pa in Potsdam were enlisted on the night
of the tird inst., on the charge of having committed
