LATEST INTELLIGENCE.

(REUTER'S TELEGRAMS.)
AUSTRIA.
VIENNA, SEPT. 23, Evening.

The Obendpost (the evening edition of the Wiener
Zeitung) of to-day says :—"lt was owing to the
relations of Austria, both at home and abroad, that
she has hitherto failed in cone:tiling a loan. Now,
however, the position has changed. Instead of an
absence of producers, and an importation exceed-
ing the exports, producers are now numerous, and
our exports arc considerable, trade, commerce, and
shipping being thereby favourably influenced.
Taxes are most regularly paid. A speedy concla.
sion of peace will c luse the extraordinary war ex-
penses to ceaso, and the outlay already incurred
will be returned by Denmark. We may therefore
hope that the moment is favourable to the negotia-
tion of a loan, if not abroad, at least at home."

FRANCE.

PARIS, SEPT. 23, Morning.

The Constitutionnel of today, in an article exa-
mining the Franco-Italian Treaty, shows that " the
Imperial Government has been faithful to its mis•
sion. Ever convinced that the temporal power of
the Pope was not opposed to the liberty and inde-
pendence of Italy, it was sufficient for the Govern-
ment to know bow to await the proper moment to
effect a solution which should at one and the same

time put an end to the retrograde tendencies of
the Holy See, and the revolutionary tendencies of
Italy. We ought to congratulate ourselves that
time has rendered possible the combinations which
will accomplish this double result so necessary to
the tranquillity of Europe."
