AUSTRlA.—According to the Silesian Gazette of
the 2.5 th instant, news had arrived from Vienna, by a
traveller, who left Florisdorf on the day previous.
The latest intelligence, that of the 24th, is given u
follows:
Sian ism night the city is completely blockaded. Prince
Wisdieshgrats removed his head-quartered yesterday at
sots, from Stazamersdorf to the palace at debenbrann. This
swami the twenty-four hours which he bad given
to the town to capitulate had expired, end Vienna
was immediately Missed ia by the tri. The
report of heavy rune was heard daely after ;
the gaze of the citizens near the bridges am the Danube
were dim/lined at the imperial troops, to preexist their
advance, bat the imperial batteries replied so vigorously
that three guns were soon dismantled. The first sortie of
the Viennese was made on the Nusedoef line, but with little
remit. It is reported that the Hungarians have attacked
Jelleshieh's camp.
At half-put three in the afternoon the two bridges (the
railway and Danube bridge) were cleared. White digs
were heisted sepia them, and the troops crowed.
The artillery is still firing along the Meador( line, and
as hotel oubi& the lines is sae man of Hama.
A coeflagration is also visible in the Wieden faubourg,
out the two little bridges over the wealled HiSserwasier, a
branch of the Danube, were se on Ire at six in the seining,
to provost the advance of the troops.
A heavy firing is now heard in the Brlgittenan.

sad thoreoommendatlon of the jury had been taken fully into
consideration, end be (Mr. Justice Mauls), had endeavoured
to lad some point favourable to the prisoner, but after
mature reflection. he meld see nothiag to justify a deviation
from the coarse that had bean panned with regard to other
persons who had been convicted of the rase Genes. The
prisoner was a person of education, and it seemed to the
court that the education he had received, and the intelli-
gence he consequently perered, aggravated, rather than
mitigated the °item. lie wee but a youth, it wee tree, still
the crime bad not been committed in the heat
of a moment; he had regularly, day after day,
and week alter week, associated with those who had not the
advantages he had, and who were plotting and devising
means to carry out their most deliberate designs. The con-
ceit sad arrogance of the parties would have been of the
most ludicrous character bat for their alarming tendency.
In their designs, however, they had forgotten the forte that
could be brought spinet them—the force of the well-dis-
posed people of this country, who would not votively
salmi& to have their throats cut and their property burnt by
a gang of ipersat and desperate ruffians. Had their deign
been completed, murder, on an extensive scale, would bars
been committed, and public buildings and warehouses would
have been raced, which was equal to raying that tho ci of
London would have been burnt to the ground. That
such atrocities had not been committed was owing to the
vigilance of the government; and ; had but one single 7iie
been sacrificed, no doubt they would have forfeited their lives
for their crime. There was nothing to stify any difference
in this ems, and the sentence was that the prisoner be trans-
ported for life.

TIIE ZOLVEREIN DUTIES.—With reference to the
increase of duties nn woollen and Oh goods recently im-
posed by the states forming the Z Arent°, it is stated that,
pending the derision of the question by the several states,
orders are about to be transmitted by the Prussian govern-
ment to their cusioin-house authorities to take the same
measures in respect of goods of British origin as have been
speed upon with regard to Belgian prods 's; and
to keep • particular account of such goods so may In
tomtitsd with the nodular/ toollisoloo so so to MOW, a
reimbitnemint oldie duties alteady paid, if, 'ventrally, and
as there is reason to expect, a reimbursement should be de-
cided upon.
FATAL EXPLOSION or FIRE DAMP IN A COAL-
pm—Nearly thirty lives were swilled on Saturday by an
explosion at a pit on Cleator Moor, within three miles of
Whitthaven, belonging to the liermalit• Minim Company.
The victims were nearly ail Irish Roman Catholies, leaving
In hind them lags families in a state of fearful destitution.
Only one man escaped alive. The bodies, twenty of
which were brought up in rapid succession for two
hours, were dreadfully scorched, particularly about the
hands, legs, and face. It is conjectured that the occurrence
originated in bad ventilation, or in some of the pitmen
having removed the top of their safety lamps to light their
pipes, in • part of the mine where they considered themselves
safe, when, the door of one of the sidings being leR open, •
current of air was sent and exploded. A searching inquiry
will be made before the coroner of the liberty this day.
