AUSTRIA.

A letter from Vienna, of the 15th, States that
the Austrian Government has addressed a very
energetic note to the Swiss Government, on the
subject of the late insurrectionary movement at
Milan. It complains that the canton of Tessin in-
directly favoured the movement. The Austrian
Government demands satisfaction, and reserves to
itself the intention of enforcing it if necessary.
The blockade of the frontier is strictly main-
tained. Not a single traveller is allowed to cross.

The same letter states that the Austrian Govern-
ment has addressed an energetic note to the Eng-
lish Government, complaining that Mazzini and
Kossuth are allowed to get up coispiracies in
London, and publish proclamations in the English
journals of a nature to provoke insurrections.
A telegraphic dispatch from Vienna, dated the
17th, says
:
"Notwithstanding the resumption of hostilities be-
tween the Montenegrins and the Turks, the Stock Ex-
change to-day has been very firm. It is positively
affirmed that Austria will endeavour to obtain the adhe-
sion of the other German States to the Austro-Prussian
commercial treaty."
Another telegraphic
dispatch received from Ger-
many announced
he important fact, that a very
extensive and well-organised conspiracy, for the
overthrow of the Austrian rule, has just been dis-
covered in Hungary.
A report has gone the round of the journals, of
the French and British Governments having ad-
dressed an " identie note " to Austria relative to
her concentration of troops on the eastern frontier.
There exist grounds for asserting that this report
, is unfounded.

DEATH FROM THE BITE OF A GLA.NDERED
—Last night Mr. William Payne held an inquest at St.
Thomas's Hospital, on the body of William Edwards,
who came to his death under the following singular
circumstances :—lt appeared that the deceased was an
ostler, in the employ of Mr. Scuse, a cab-owner, of Ken-
nington-cross, and had the care of five horses. Last
Tuesday fortnight he was in the act of administering
a medical ball to one of the horses that was ill with
a fever (as the master stated), and while doing so
- the horse closed his teeth upon, or they came in
contact with the back of his right hand, by which it was
lacerated, and although it soon showed signs of in-
flammation he refused to have medical advice, until
Wednesday last, when he went to St. Thomas's Hospital;
but although he received every attention he only lived
until three b'clock on the following morning. The jury
put various questions to the witnesses as to the state of
the horse at the time, and at length the master admitted
that when a veterinary surgeon had seen it he had con-
demned it, and it had been sent off to the knacker's, but
he did not know that it was diseased with the glanders.
Mr. Walter Tyrrell
, house surgeon, said the deceased
was brought to the hospital on Wednesday last, with
his hand and arm in a mortified state. The deceased
told him that it was produced by the tooth of a diseased
horse. He became weaker and weaker, and died on the
following morning
after his admission. The jury re-
turned a verdict of " Accidental death."
