AUSTRIA.

A Vienna letter in the Cologne Gaulle says:
"All the concessions the Austrian government will
consent to are the abandonment of the Duke of
Modena and the Duchess of Parma; it will not
renounce the restoration of the Grand Doke of
Tuscany, nor consent that Romagna shall be de-
tached from the papal states. There is no lesson to
expect any change in the Austrian policy on these
points. The Emperor has personally declared that
no consideration shall induce him to depart from
these conditions."
