PRUSSIA.

BERLIN, Sept. 24.—The National Zeitung to-day
publishes a synopsis of the Austrian Note of the
14th inst., which is of so remarkable and interest-
ing a nature that I cannot refrain from sending it
to you. The editor has prefaced it with some few
words, which so entirely express my own views
that the most expedient course will be to trans-
late them as they stand. After premising that the
Not© is dated September 14, and is addressed to
the Austrian representatives in all the States of
the German Confederation, except the two Meek-
lenburgs, they being the only Governments that
did not join the treaty of alliance of April 20,
he says :
"This document is skilfully enough calculated on the
one hand to define and retain the perfectly neutral
position that the Austrian Cabinet now observes in

the war commenced against Russia ; on the other
hand, to keep public opinion, in so far as it had in-
dulged in the assumption that Austria was very much
of accord with the Western Powers and hostilely
disposed against Russia, in that way of thinking ;
further, to preserve an external appearance of per-
fect identity of feeling with Prussia much more than
seems actually to exist ; at the same time to draw
Prussia towards herself by a conciliatory acquiescence in
the wishes of her Cabinet, and to make Austria, in con-
trast to the backward, inactive, expectant attitude of
Prussia, appear as the active, combative representative,
And supporter of interests hich are not simply German
and Eufopean, but are averred to be the only real Ger-
man interests, par excellence, that are brought into ques-
tion."

The New Prussian Gazette states, under the head
of Vienna, that the Austrian Cabinet has sent to

St. Petersburg, in reply to the note of Count Nes-
selrode of the 26th ult., a note in which Austria
again insists on the four propositions.

TRANCE.

The Moniteur publishes the following telegraphic
despatch from Therapia, 17th :

" 3IARSHAL DE SAINT-ARNADD TO THE MINISTER OF WAR.

"Bivouac of Oldfort, 16th.—The allied armies landed
at Oldfort on the 14th without meeting with any resist-
ance. The troops are full of ardour. The Tartar popu-
lation appear very favourably disposed. We are estab-
lishing ourselves by the landing of the cavalry and the
materiel. This is a laborious operation, and is some-
times impeded by the wind ; but it advances, and I hope
to be prepared to leave to-morrow. The ensemble of
our debut is very satisfactory."
The following private telegraphic despatch has
also been received :

"MARSEILLES, 26th,—The courier which left Con-
stantinople on the 15th merely announces the march of
25,000 Turks on. Ibrail, and the junction of the corps
commanded by Schamy with that of his lieutenant,
Daniel Bey, in order to make an attack on Tiflis." The
Turkish army in Asia, which is waiting for its new
general-in-chief, Ismail Pacha, occupies the camp
abandoned by the Russians near Kars. Since
his departure from Silistria, Ismail Pacha has
been the object of continual ovations on the part
of the Ottoman troops whom he meets on his road.
The Thabor, which left Constantinople on the 20th, is
expected here on the 27th or 28th. She will bring de-
tails of the landing of the allies in the Crimea. Accord-
ing to notes exchanged between the governments of
France, England, and Bavaria the cabinet of Munich
has just sent M. Maurer, ex-Minister of Justice, on a
mission to King Otho."
The Minister of War has lately taken measures
to have the frontier-zone of France more strictly
watched over ; and to that effect he has addressed
a circular to the prefects, officers of gendarmery,
and commanders of fortified places, stating what
points that surveillance ought to be more particu-
larly directed to, and the nature of the acts of
preservation that ought to be carried out.
