The hiding-place of Signor Mairiiti is still an
enigma. All search has proved abortive. Many
think that he is at Milan. It is, however, very
doubtful if he ever ventured so far within reach of
the imperial clutches.

GERMANY.
The Minister of Police at Vienna has revived the
decree, published at the time of the Haynau affair
in England, against English travellers in Austria.
The Austrian Ambassador has addressed to the
President of the Confederation, a written reply,
which persists in all the accusations already brought
against Tesino, but without any proofs to support
them.
The Prussian Gazette states that Lord Westmore-
land had presented an official note to the Austrian
Ministry from the English Cabinet, containing ,a
formal expression of their intention rigorously to
suppress any conspiracy fomented by foreign refu-
gees against the continental powers. This paper
adds, that Austria is rapidly preparing the neces-
sary documents for the legal prosecution of the
proscribed by the British court.
The Emperor of Austria held a grand reception
at Vienna on the 13th ; all the foreign ambassa-
dors were present. The physicians of the Emperor
who attended him after the attempt to assasinate
him, MM. Seeburger and de Wattman, have re-
ceived distinctions ; the first has received the Cross
of the Order of Leopold, and the second has been
made an Aulic councillor and a baron.
A letter from Vienna, of the 14th, states that
both General Haynau and. the Archbishop of
Vienna, whose death has been announced, died on
the same night of apoplexy. The Archbishop had
been at the head of the clergy of Vienna for 21
years, and was distinguished for his literary ac-
quirements, He was 76 years of age.
Haynau was in his 67th year, and was on the
point of receiving a new command in Italy. The
man who did so much to repress the revolution the
cut down himself on the famous 13th of March, the
anniversary of its :breaking out.
The Papal Nuncio at Vienna and the Primate of
Hungary have been raised to the dignity of
Cardinal.

missaries returned to Cattaro from Podgarizza.
The Turks had retired from Montenegro, but Omer
Pacha still kept a garrison at Spuz and Podgarizza,
while he himself had his camp at Skutari. All
hostages and prisoners taken by the Turks were to
be given up ; and, on the other hand, the
abla guns
seized by the Montenegrins at Godirie and Zk
were to be restored to their former proprietors.
Omer Pacha's request that the inhabitants of Spuz
and the surrounding district should be allowed to
continue their field labours unmolested, was well
received by the two commissaries, who caused mea-
sures to be taken for their protection.
We read in the Voss Gazette :7--" The federal
contingent is one per cent. of the population, in
conformity with the Convention of 1818, 1819, and
1820. At that period the total population of the
States of the Confederation was 30 millions ; it is
now 43 millions. The federal army is, therefore,
300,000 strong, or rather less than one per cent. of
the population, divided in the following manner
Austria, 94,000 men and Prussia, 79,000 ; Bavaria,
35,000 ; Wurtemburg Hanover, 13,000 ; Sax-
ony, 12,000 ; Baden, 10,000 ; making a total of
243,000. The other 57,000 are divided among the
other States, and form contingents, varying from
a maximum of 6,000, which is for the Grand Duchy
of Hesse, and a minimum of 55 for the principality
Lichstenstein."

TURKEY.
Accounts from Constantinople to the sth by way
of Marseilles, and to the Bth by way of Vienna,
have arrived. They dwell principally on the mis-
sion of the Russian Minister of Marine, General
Prince Menschikoff, and are of considerable interest
and importance. The object of the General appears
to have been to show more hauteur to the Turkish
Government, and in a more public manner, than
Count de Leiningen, the Austrian Envoy, dis-
played. Before embarking at Odessa, he passed a
review of the Russian fleet in the Black Sea, and
of the corps of disembarkation which Russia has
kept on a war footing in the port of Sebastopol
since 1833. Twenty-seven vessels of war—ships
of the line, frigates, or large steamers—and 30,C30
soldiers, were assembled on this occasion ; and the
greatest eclat possible was given to the review
with, it is supposed, the view of causing it to
be known at Constantinople. The General
then proceeded to Constantinople on board the
Russian war-steamer the Foudroyant, and ar-
rived in that city on the 28th February. He
was accompanied by Count Dimitri Ness.slrade
as ..
secretary, by two generals, one of them Ge32:-al
Nipocatscinski, commander-in-chief of Vie sth
corps d'armee, by two admirals, ore of them' Vice-
Admiral Corniloff, commanding the naval forces in.
the Black Sea, by two colonels and two lieute,,ant-
colonels as aides-de-camp, and five captains as
ordcrly officers, Since the celebrated e nbassY of
Koutousoff at the end of the last century, no mis-
sion of the kind has been seen at Constantinople.
Prince Menschikoff and his suite were received, on
disembarking at Topkhane, by all the employes of
the Russian Embassy, and by between 6,000 and
8,000 Russian subjects or members of the Greek
religion ; and he was escorted by them with great
po np to his hotel. On the 2d March, the Pr:nce
went to the Porte to pay a visit to the Grard
Vizier ; but, contrary to all usages, he did not ap-
pear in the uni:o7m of his grade, but in plain clothes.
What took place in the interview is not precisely
known ; but what is certain is, that whe aon taking
his leave the Grand Vizier invited him, in conformity
with the diplomatic usage at Constantinople, to paya
visit to the Minister of Foreign Affairs, Fuad Effendi,
who was waiting to receive him, he replied in a very
loud and very disdainful tone, and before several
witnesses, that he would not see that minister, as
his Government, and especially its accredited mi-
nister at Constantinople, M. Ozeroff, had to re-
proach him with several breaches of faith. In con-
sequence of this Fuad Effendigave in his resignation.
It is said in one of the letters from Constantinople
that the demands made by Prince Menschikoff on
the Grand Vizier, and supported by this demon-
stration, were not less offensive to • the Porte than
the remarks on one of its ministel.2. It was said
amongst other things (but this statement must be
received with doubt) that the Prince demanded, in
the name of his Government, that the Emperor of
Russia should hence^o7th be officially recognised as
the protector of the Greek Christians, subjects of
Turkey, as France has been fir some centuries of
the Catholics in the Levan anti that the e'ection
of the Patriarch of Constple should hence-
forth be made by.the Greeks, and confirmed by the
Emperor of Russia, to the• exclusion of the Sultan,
who at present has the right of nomination and
investiture. The day after this interview Fuad
Effendi was replaced (as already announced) by
Rifaat Pacha, who had b-.,•en nominated ambassador
at Vienna, and who is considered one of thest chanti iefs
of what is called the Austrian party at Con-
nople. The ministers held a council the same day,
and put themselves in communication with the
foreign diplomatic body. On the 4th March, either
on the solicitation of the Divan, or spontaneously,
the English charge d'affaires, Colonel Rose; accord-
ing to another letter from Constantinople, proposed
to send a steamer to Admiral Dundas, commanding
the English fleet in the Mediterranean, who was
then at Malta, inviting him to approach the Dar-
danellesid,

A letter from Constantinople of the sth says
" The 'arrival of the Russian special ambassador,
Prince Mentschikoff, has excited great sensation
here, and he is said to be the bearer of anentien
ultima-
tum from the Emperor of Russia, which will
of no modification. He is accompanied by the
General-in-Chief of the Russian army m Bessarabia,
and the admiral commanding the Russian fleet at
Sebastopol, who are placed under his orders, and
will, in the event of the Porte refusing to complyi
with the demands of Russia, return to their posts
and commerce ope7ations. What these demands
are has not transpired officially. Report says that
the Emperor of Russia insists, among other things,
on a revision of the decision relative to the Holy
Places, on the cession of a tract of territory of 134
square miles near Ararat, and the recognition of the
independence of the Montenegrins."
A Belgian paper publishes a 'telegraphic dispatch
from Marseilles, dated Thursday evening, to the
following effect
"The English steamer Caradoc has just arrived from
Constantinople. It brings the intelligence that Prince
Menschikoff does not regard as sufficient satisfaction the
dismissal of the Turkish Minister of War. He has pre-
sented an ultimatum, which the Divan has refused. The
Sultan has invoked the immediate help of France and
England. The fleet of Sebastopol was ready to start for
the Bo3phorus."
