ATTSTRIA.

VIENNA, MARCH 11.—This morning Lord John
Russell, or rather Mr. Hammond, the Under Sec-
recary of State, sent off a messenger with de-
spatches to Loudon. During the last three or four
days the Special Commissioner has had several in-
terviews both with Canit Buol and Baron Bour-
queney, and he has probably now forwarded to the
British Government a detailed account of what
has occurred since his arrival in this city. No-
thing is yet positively known relative to what has
takea place between Count Buol and the Repre-
sentatives of the Western Powers.

According to a Vienna paper the four points
or conditions will be retained as the basis of the
negotiations for peace ; that is, their number will
neither be increased nor diminished. The arrange-
ment relative to the Principalities will in all like-
lihood lead to very animated discussions, but the
greatest difference of opinion will be manifested
when the Congress has to provide for the future
balance of power in the Black Sea.

A letter from Vienna, of the 9th, in the Breslau
Gazette, says :—" It is said that another circular
was yesterday despatched by the Austrian Cabinet
to the German States, in which they are informed
that Count de Rechberg is charged with the task
of again proposing to the Diet the mobilisation of
the federal army, and in which that measure is
strongly recommended to the German Cabinets.
It is said that in this despatch, as in that of Feb.
16, Count de Buol insists on the necessity of being
prepared in arms for every eventuality ; and it is
added that the death of the Emperor Nicholas had
not in any respect modified the march of the nego-
tiations, as the instructions of Prince Gortschakoff
have been confirmed by the new Emperor of
Russia."
A letter from Vienna states that the Austrian
Court is to go into mourning for ten days, on the
occasion of the death of Don Carlos.

The Augsburg Gazette contains a letter from
Vienna of the Bth, which says :—" There was a
second meeting held at the hotel of the Minister
of Foreign Affairs, at which Lord John Russell,
Lord Westmoreland, Baron de Bourqueney, M.
Prokesch-Osten, and Count de Buol, were present,
and which lasted the whole morning. It is said
that all the plenipotentiaries have agreed on giving
to the future conferences such a form as to insure
the most complete secrecy."

A TMTP. TA TT MP nrrr. A vr_
FRANKroRr, March 12.—The following is a sum-
mary of a circular, addressed by the Austrian
Government to all its agents in Germany, under
date the sth inst.:--

M. de Buol states that when he informed the
Austrain agents in Germany, in hiS despatch of the
28th of February last, that at the sitting of the Diet
of the 22d of February the Austrian proposition
made in pursuance of the Federal decision of the
Bth of the same month had met with opposition on
the part of the Prussian Plenipotentiary in the
Diet, he might still doubt that those objections, yen
bally made, and under the reserve of a written de-
claration, • which might be delivered later, could
really find their place in the deliberations of the Fe-
deral assembly. But the Austrian Plenipotentiary,
President of the Diet, has just addressed to the
Cabinet of Vienna, with his written report on the
subject, the Prussian declaration (a copy of which is
annexed), which M. de Bismark has caused 'to be
inserted in the minutes of the sitting of the 22d.
Baron de Prokesch has likewise delivered, in
writing, his counter declaration (a copy of which is
equally annexed). The Cabinet is, consequently,
called upon to adduce, on its side, as respects the
declaration of Prussia, the observations it has al-
ready expressed in i ts despatch of the 28th February,
and it has not only approved, in the most formal
manner, the reply which the Plenipotentiary-
President conceived himself authorised to make, but
has moreover instructed Count de Rechberg to give
plainly to understand, in the deliberations of the
Diet, in order that no doubt should remain en the
subject, that if the communication, made by tie
Imperial Government, with regard to the state of
the Austrian army, should be the occasion of any
observations in the sense of the Prussian declara-
tion, or in a sense which would give to that decla-
ration any practical consequence, the Imperial
Government would be under the necessity of de-
positing a formal protest on the subject. The
Government of . . . . to which this despatch,
completing that of the 28th February, is to be com-
municated, will appreciate, the Cabinet of Vienna
has no doubt, the importance of the motives which
impose upon that Cabinet the duty of making
known in the least unequivocal manner the opinion
it entertains with regard to the declaration which

Prussia, it regrets to say, considered to b© com-
p ttible with the Federal decision of the Bth of
February.

According to an Odessa letter of the 27th ult. in
the Alilitarische Zeitung, the Russian troops are to
he formed into two armies about the middle of this
month—one under the command of General Osten-
Sacken, occupying the banks of the Tchernaya ;
and the other, under General Read, operating
against the Turks at Eupatoria. The Russians
before Eupatoria have been reinforced by a corps
under Paid'loff, and by a division of Light Cavalry,
under General Rusoff. A Dragoon corps passed
the Isthmus of Perekop at the end of last month.
The Grand Dukes Michael and Nicholas went
from Sebastopol to Simpheropol on the 21st, and
returned on the following day. General Luders
is at Odessa.

The Minister ofWar at Turin has issued a circular
informing the commandants of the army that in
consequence of the state of war between Sardinia
and Russia, no more furloughs are to be granted,
and all military men on furlough are to return to
their respective regiments before the end of the
present months.

A letter from Bellinzona of the 9th, in the Pied-
monte of Turin, states that the differences existing
between the canton of Ticino and Austria are about
to be settled, and that new instructions have been
sent for that purpose by the Federal Council to the
delegates at Milan. The Grand Council of Ticino
has ordered the election of three of its members
according to the new Constitution.

The Independance Beige states that a new French
corps d'armee is to be formed, composed of the
troops now stationed near Boulogne. It will be
styled the Army of the North, and Marshal Bara•
quay d'Hilliers will have the command.
