THE INSURRECTION AT VIENNA.

BRILMLAIY, Ocr. 8.
I have been induced to remain here (instead of en-
deavouring to return toViennu) by the eircumstatee
that the line of railway has been broken up on various
points ; and also on account of the facilities one hes
here of acquiring ample information of the occurrence.
in the Austrian capital, facilities which would not be
at hand•in any other place between this and Vienna.
On attentively looking over the mass of correspond-
ence, as well as the printed details, which arrrived
this evening relating to the insurrection, or rathee,
perhaps, revolutior, in that metropolia, I find that in
yesterday's despatA I have omitted nothing of any
interest, and that all the statern^ nts therein are fully
confirmed. There are a few more particulars, how-
ever, respecting the outbreak which I may now add,
as well as further accounts up to a later date than the
one raentioecd in my precedieg conimunicati. n.
During the 6th mullet encounters took place in
almost every leading thoroughfare, and frequently
.be-
tween different bodies of national guards entertaining
opposite political principles. The national guards of
two districts, the so-called Kii-othner and 14imm. r
quarters, who were long distinguished for their at-
tachment to the inipmial house, and for their anti-
popular demonatratione and tendencies, woained an
obstinate contest with the insurgents, in ender to pre-
vent them from ringing the alaruin bell in B;ephen's
Church. The above national guards were finally re-
puttied from the church by the national guards of the
tour su'eulks, who took possession of the above edifice
after having killed the captain of their opponents.
The chief points in which serious encounters oc-
curred sera on the Oraben and llof and in the Bogner-
game, in which places the people were the victors.
It is now stated that the two battalions of grena-
diers, whose refusal to march against the Hungarians
was the cause of, or pretext for, the insurrection, be-
longed not to a German, but to an Italian, or so-called
Italian, regiment. Upon that point, however, the
assertions are contradictory. The chief brunt of the
'tuna on the imperial troops was brae by the so-
called Natißall regiment, or Galician one, which fired
unremittingly upon the inseirgeet grenadiere, the
academic lesion, and a number of the national guards.
The Nassau regiment lost three pieces of artillery and
had 50 killed, including Gen. Bully. On the other
side 40 fell dead or mortally wounded. One of the
two bridges across the Danube, which, as stated yes-
terday, were destroyed by the insurgents in order to
impede the march of the troops, was used for railway
purposes, the other for general passage. After its
defeat the Nassau regimeut retreated to the Au-
Garten.

The working claws wore chiefly armed with iron
crowbars and lances, and were frequently heard roci
ferating " Death to Latour," the Minister of War,
whom they accused of having issued an order to deci-
mate the two battalions of grenadiers, and to bombard
the city.
About 3 p.m. the defeated Nassau regiment forced
its way into the city, and commenced a destructive
fire. It was, however, obliged a second time to re-
treat. The grenadiers, the students, ai.d the national
guards fought desperately. None of the barricades
were attacked, the military leaving enough to do with
their open and unsheltered antagonists.
The following are the members of the committee of
safety : Feister, Uoldmark, Klandi, Borrosch, Fiachhof,
and Pilleradorf. There are two or three more, but
their names have not transpired. The arsenal was
defended by 400 soldiers (atter all their other com-
rades had been obliged to evacuate the city, and even to
retreat to some distance from it) and some 20 national
guards. Numerous persons were killed or wounded
during the siege of that edific:. It was solely
through the intervention of the Diet that the besieged
were allowed to withdraw quietly from it. A por-
tion of the building has been destroyed by fire.
About midnight the Diet received from the deputa-
tion appointed to wait on the Emperor the following
official reply :—" In conformity with the request of
the Diet, I shall form a new popular (wolksthiionliches)
ministry, including Doblhoff and HornbosteL" Thin
answer, which was read aloud, amidst deep silence,
called forth enthusiastic blade of applause, particu-
larly from the public galleries. " I expect," confirmed
the Emperor, " from the loyalty of the Viennese that,
mindful of the favour which I have ever displayed
towards them, they will direct their attention to the
restoration of order." The concluding portion was re-
ceived with slight applause and much hissing.
It is assertedthat,on the night of the sth the" demo-
erotical union" had plentifully distributed money and
liquors amongst the two battalions of grenadiers, and
had secretly concerted with them the means of arrest-
ing their departure for Hungary. The movement of
the students towards the railway in order to break up
the commencement of the line was the result of • re-
solution to that effect, passed on the morning of the 6.h
in the Hall of the Academy the students vehemently
declaring that the defeat of the Hungarians would be
the signal for the oppression of the entire empire, and
its subj. ction to military tyranny. The " academie
legion" has severely suffered, having exposed itself
to the greatest dangers during the entire day and
night of the Orb.
The commencing of the firing is variously attributed
to the academic legion, and to the Nassau regiment.
Certain it is that, at an early hour, the students
formed into platoons, and kept up an obstinate fire
upon the cavalry escort of the two grenadier batta-
lions, which, however, forced them to retire into the
interior of the city. Several Magyars were conspi-
cuous as popular leaders. Thousands of armed pea-
sants armed during the afternoon.
Count Latour was found concealed in a wardrobe,
after a rigorous search throughout his office and resi-
dence. I have nothing to add to the particulars
(respecting his death) forwarded yesterday.
The proclamations and decisions of the Diet on the
oth were issued and arrived at through the all bat
una&mous vote of some 180 members, the remainder
(chiefly Bohemians and SI evenians Proper) having
deemed it prudent not to make V sir appearance. The
president of the Diet, Herr Strohbach, had previously
refused to take the chair, upon the ground that the
legal number of members was not present. Every
important detail connected with that sitting was
forwarded to you yesterday.
The victorious insurgents demand the perpetual
banishment of the Archduke Lewis and the Arch-
duchess Sophia. The latter they describe, in other
words, as
An At, stirring him to blood and wife.

Before the people forcibly ob.ained admission into
the office of the Minister of War some general officers,
a student, and a national guard, appeared at one of
the windows with a flag of truce, and one of them
threw down a piece of paper which contained,
freshly written, the following words " The
firing is to immediately cease on both sides,"
signed "Latour, Wessenburg." The cuiras-
siera and grenadiers within the building were
unable to oppose any effectual resistance to the infu-
riated multitude, who demanded the life of Latour.
Save that unfortunate minister, no other person in his
office and residence was injured; but a general and
other officers were taken prisoners and conveyed as
hostages to &place of safety.
The proceedings of the Diet on the morning of the
7th I have already communicated to you. I have to
add that it resolved to issue a proclamation to the pro-
vinces, and to send a memorial to the fugitive Eve-
ror so soon as his place of refuge, which some say is

or will be Prague—others, Linz—is ascertained.
Daring the 7th a number of troops encamped on the
so-called Belvidere height, and, it is said, erected bat-
teries thereon, resolved to hold out to the last.
So mach for the completion of tho lengthened ac-
count which I transmitted yesterday. Now for the
newest and latest details.
The flight of the Emperor did not produce, as was
probably intended by the court party or camarilla,
the great sensation which was felt ou the occasion of
his first withdrawal to the Tyrol. Mach less did it
call forth any expressions of regret. The parting
threat to seek the means to " free his oppressed people
of Vienna from the yoke" was treattd not with
scorn, but with the utmost indifference. Tim people
of that capital now allied—u the French would say,
par la force des teMements—with the insurgent and
half victorious Magyars of Hungary, feeling con-
scious of their strength, and being quite reedy to cope
with—cow the main hope of the court party—the
Bin of Croatia and his horde of ill-disciplined

Slaeonians.
Up to It) pm. last night, the Diet was en perm-
nenee. At that hour the members retired to rest.
This morning they assembled again at an early hoar,
and passed unanimously six resolutions to the follow-
ing effect:—The Diet which, as a constituent one,
cannot be dissolved before the fulfilment of its mission
(you wal perceive that it here asserts its co-sovereignty
with the throne), resolves uncle r preseut circumstances
not to separate, but to remain true to its duty; the
Diet represents all the nations of Austria which have
elected it ; it is the only constitutional and legal organ
between the constitutional monarch and the SOVEREIGN
. . . .

PHUPLL (a'c in the original in large letters), for the
preservation of the unircurubered (untserlaimmert)
liberty of the people and the hereditary throne ; no
moral force shall be exerted to compel the deputies to
remain ; and that the Diet will in a constitutional way
adopt legal mea.ures for the preservation of the
Fatherland, the freedom of the people, and the here-
...

. .
ditary throne.
The general belief is that the Emperor has gone,
not to Linz, but to Prague, whither the Czech mem-
bers of the Diet have also proceeded. The present
number of deputies in Vienna is 251. A number of
the, working chews have forwarded an address to the
D'et stating that they are opposed to all anarchy, and
that the liberty of the people is their only object. It
was unanimously resolver, that this address be printed,
and that the signers of it receive the thanks of the
house.

The committee appointed by the Diet for the main-
tenance of order las organised a mobile national
gourd ; and Cie abwe legislative body has also nomi-
nated a commi,saiiit under Colonels Catanelli and

Stopnicky, fur the providing for the enerrzetic defence
of the city. The ample provisioning of the city is en-
trusted to the common council.

The Diet has issued its address to the people of
Austria. It seta forth that the Diet, in unison with
the people of Vienna had endeavoured, during the
first moments of the 6th of October, to oppose re
ectionary ea well as anarchical principles; that it had
declared itself permanent ; appointed a committee for
the vrelervation of order; sent a deputation to the
Emperor in order to fulfil, in unison with him, the
wishes of the sovereign people ; that his Majesty had
been graciously pleased to accede to the demand for
a new and popular ministry, but that on the 7th he
bad taken the deeply-to-be-regretted resolution to
remavo from the vicinity of the capital. The pro-
clametie,n adds thet thereby the freedom and welfare
of Fatherland are endangered ; and that it is neces-
sary for the people of Vienna and Austria in
general to manifest the same spirit of moderation that
they evinced in May last. It concludes by an-
nouncing that Dobblhof, Hombostel, and Kraus have
been entrusted with the business of all the other
ministers ; and that a memorial has been cent t his
Majesty so that he will bo informed of the true
state of things.
Letters from Pesth describe a victory over the
Croatians, who were left by the HMI in their former
position (probably Stuldweessenburg.)
A letter from Ptah, dated Oct. 4, says :—" The
provisional government, which is invested with un-
limited power, and which acts under the title of
Committee for the defence of the country, has added
to its number several members of the extreme left.
The name of provisional government or dictatorship,
has not yet been openly mentioned here. Last night
about 6,000 peasants, mostly armed with scythes, and
some also with guns, arrived here by the S'zolnoker
railway. Last night the Minister-General of War,
M. Messaros, and Gen. Kiss, arrived nom the camp. '
They were stopped by the people, and were obliged
to address them from the balcony of the hotel, the
' Queen of England.' The Minister of War
stated that Jellaellich had broken the armis-
tice of three days, which he had requested, and
had been granted, inasmuch as within that time he
had fled with the greatest part of his army. He was,
however, being actively pursued, and would certainly
be annihilated ; and, if he should escape with his life,
he would never forget that he had been in Hungary.
About 30,000 men, whom Jellachioh had left in his
camp, wish to capitulate. Transports of prisoners,
artillery, and ammunition, continue to arrive here
daily. About 1,500 prisoners who were taken to-day
at Stahlweissenburg have just arrived."

PRUSSIA.—The Berlin papers of Oct. 10 have
reached us. Amongst the received rumours of the
day at Berlin is one to the effect that negotiations are
still pending for the declaring of the king of Prussia
Emperor of Germany, on the condition that he form
a distinct kingdom out of the provinces of Prussia,
Pomerania, and Posen, for his brother the Prince of
Prussia; and another out of the Rhenish provinces
and Westphalia for the son of Prince Charles.
It may be °beeped here that, admitting for
a moment that there is any ground for the ru-
mour, these are not the times in which entire pro-
vinces can be disposed of at the will of princes or di-
plomatists. The provinces of Prussia and Pomerania
might not be altogether dissatisfied with such an ar-
rangement (for they are much attached to the Prince
of Prussia, and hold Berlin in aversion), but it would
be far otherwise with the Polish portion of Posen, and
as for the Rhine land, its disjunction would be the
immediate signal for the proclamation of a republic.
It is asserted that Austria has positively refused to
join the Zollverein.
The leading railway capitalists are about to make
arrangements for further abridging the time required
for the journey bctweea Berlin aad Paris, and be-
tween Hamburg and Cdly (in the direction of
Trieste). It is probable that night trains wit be
placed on the line from Cologne to Brussels.
The salary of the Belgian minister at Berlin has
been reduced one-half. As might be expected, the
events in Vienna were the all-engrossing topics of
conversation in the capital. They have not been
without their effect on the constituent assembly,
several members who had sat in the centre having
taken up their places on the left. Moreover, some
amendments (proposed by the latter) in the Game
Bill—amendments which a few days ago had no
chance of being passed—were on the 9th voted with-
out opposition. Very numerously attended public
meetings were held on the 9th, and the speeches were
more than usually bold. The principle of fraternisa-
tion between the military and the people was fre-
quently alluded to and upheld. As was the case with
Belgium at the time of the lest French revolution, it
is fortunate that the present Prussian cabinet is not
en unpopular one, otherwise the events in Vienna
would have, almost of necessity, evoked similar de-
monstrations here. As matters stand even now, there
is no lask of apprehensions respecting future dis-
tarbanna.
The ling has proclaimed an amnesty for all politi-
cal ofissees in the province of Posen up to the let of
July, 1848.
HAMBURG.—Our correspondent writes, under
date Oct. 10 :
The elections engross attention here. The choice of mem-
bers to the constituent assembly began last Saturday at
Ritrebuttel (Cuxbsvon). The eight members it returned
are all moderate reformers, the candidates of both extreme
parties haviog been rejected. The same results are to be ex-
pected of other districts t the conservatives, or patriots as
they call themselves, will not compromise; they will have so
candidate but of their party ; and if they succeeded is their
object we should have but little reform. This consideration
made several liberal men separate from them and suite with
the moderates, Tomorrow one of the city districts will have
to vote, the result is looked forward to with a good deal of
scanty. Is the duettist of Schleswig and Holstein all is
quiet for the present. The democratic clubs had a sass dae
at Rendsburg a few days ago, where tt.ey came to the rsseld-
tfonagainst the obnoxious clauses of the armistice, blew
mining not to yield, and if other mew s fail they would se-
fuse to pry taxes. The Asiatic eviler& is still here, but the
cars era not /11 bad as heretofore. Those who die are
mostly hard drinkers, or people who were eating fruits to
excess. There are no bulletins published far fear of alarm.
in nervous people. We had very sultry weather until last
night, which may have been the cause of the malady not
abating.

EXCIIANOES.
•
The editor of the h'con.ow,st has, at length, produced the
first of his promised a-ti.s act attic:, s on this branch of the
eurreney quer ion. We r.hret our itaollity to auger th 4 re-

prices" which ha. recently annihilated perhaps one-third of
the entire capital, tixid and Chating, of the country ? To
this question, we presume' the reply of Sir Rotert reel will
be cmclusive, at least to the editor et the Economist,
namely, that the system now in operation is an imme-
