ALLEGED ALLIANCE BETWEEN AUSTRIA
AND RUSSIA.

The Morning Chronicle publishes the following
in a second edition :

" Intelligence just received from a sure source at
Vienna is to the following effect:

"No doubt whatever now remains of the fact
that Russia has decided on renewing her old
alliance with Austria, under the provisions of a
treaty prepared by M. de Balabine and Count
Reohberg. This treaty is on the eve of
being signed, and will be carried to St. Peters-
burg by Prince Alexander of Hesse. The
news of the Prince having quitted Vienna for the
Russian capital may, whenever it arrives, be taken
as a signal that the document has received the neoes-
sary signatures. We have excellent reasons for be-
lieving that ita provisions will be found to be as
follows:

" 1. The most ample concessions as to all that re-
gards the Holy Places at Jerusalem will be made
by Austria to Russia.
" 2. With a view to eventualities that have every
probability of being realised, Austria agrees to
conform her policy to that of Russia as to the
Danubian provinces and Bernie.
" 3. In compensation for these concessions in the
East and on the Danube, Russia will guarantee to
Austria the whole of her territory, including Hun-
gary and Venetia, against insurrection and foreign
foss."
