AUSTRIA.

Accounts have been received from Vienna to the
25th. The victory of the Ithperialists over Georgey
turns out, as we yesterday said it would, to be no
victory at all. The real facts of the case are as
follows :—The Hungarians having crossed the
Waag on the 19th and 20th instant, suddenly,
made a violent onset on the Imperialist po-
sitions, and penetrated even into the centre of
them, and after a battle of three days with the two
Imperialist armies, the Hungarians retreated to
their former positions, but not without having, by
their razzia, done considerable damage to the Impe-
rialist corps. The Russian General Paniutin was
wounded, and the very fact that the Anstrian bulletins
remain silent on the subject of the killed and wounded
and the captured canuon and men, shows that the
intelligence which they have to communicate on that
score is by no means cheering.
The Austrian papers publish a decree of the Aus-
trian Commander-in-Chief, General Haynau, in
which that military chieftain states that the inhabi-
tants of the barough of 136-Shay Fang, having aided
and abetted the Hungarian insurgents in their
attack upn the brigade of General Wyss, he (Gene-
ral Haynau) has ordered their town to be burnt and
annihilated, and that this order was executed on the
21st inst.

The Kane,. Zeitung, in reporting this fact, adds—

"The Hungarians,—too, have been guilty of similar
atrocities in the course of lazt year, but those who com-
mitted them were unorganised Guerilla bands. No
general of the Rebel hordes,' no leader of the enemies
of humanity,' has ever done what an Imperialist and
Austrian General dares to do in the 19th century."
The cholera and the typhus continue doing their
work on the Imperialist armies. Three hundred sick
soldiers (none of them wounded) were brought to
Vienna from Oedenburg on the 24th inst.

CRIMINAL COURT (THIS DAY.)

The July Session of the Centrgl Criminal Court was
opened this morning before the L,rd Mayor, the Com-
mon Serjeant, Aldermen Sir Chapman Marshall and
Salomon, accompanied by Mr. Sheriff Finnis and Mr.
Sheriff Goodhart. _

The grand jury having boon impannelied,
The COMMON SERJEANT proceeded to deliver the
charge. Ho said this, in all probability, would be the
last occasion cmwhich a grand jury would b 3 summoned
in this court, a Bill having been introductql into Parlia-
ment for its abolition. There was really no c if.es in the
calendar that requirtd any observation. They were
principally cases of cutting and wounding, and of petty
larceny.
The grand jury then retired.

MARLBRO'-STREET-( THIS DAY.)

SHOPLIFTING.--Ann Harris, a dressmaker, who re-
fused to give her address, was brought betere Mr. Hard-
wick, ch,rged with having stolen from the shop of
Messrs. Williams and Hatton, silk mercers, 272, Regent-
circus, 14 yards of black silk, value 2/.
John Breskspeare stated that he was assistant to
Messrs. Williams and Hatton, 272, Regent-circus. On
Saturday evening, about six o'clock, the prisoner came
into his employers' shop to purchase some goods. There
were several pieces of silk lying on the counter close to
where the prisoner was standing ; and whilst the young
man, who was serving the prisoner, turned round to get
SOrird article which he wanton, he (witness) saw her take
a piece of black silk from off the counter, and conceal it
under • her mantle. The young man having given
the prisoner her change, she left the shop; and he im-
mediately went over to the young man and informed him
that the prisoner had stolen a piece of silk from his
counter. Witness then went out after the prisoner, and
took the piece of silk from beneath her mantle.
The prisoner said the silk had accidentally bung to her
cloak, and begg( d of him to let her go, and not give her
in charge. A constable at that moment came up and
took her into custody.
The prisoner, who denied stealing the silk, was com-
mitted tor trial.

PERSIA.

The Journal de Constantinople of the 14th has a
letter from Tre:iisond, containing the latest intelli-
gence from Persia. The Salar (one of the insurgent
chiefs) was still blockaded in Meched, and dangerously
ill. His brother-in-law, Jaffer Kooli Khan,who headed
the Coords and Turcomans, had made his submission,
and had gone to Teheran,where the Persian Government
had received him with high honours. The surrender
of Meched was daily expected. Sultan Moorad
Mirza, uncle to the Schah, had assumed the command-
in-chief of the Persian army ; he had carried by
storm, after a siege of 55 days, the fortress of
Sebzewar, where the sons of the Salar Emir Islam
Khan and Hajji Mehemet Khan had retired. The
former had succeeded in making his escape. Some
chiefs of Fars had risen against the governor of that
province, Nizam Eddoolet Hussein Khan, to avoid
the payment of 800,000 tomaums of taxes (forty
millions of francs), in arrear for the last 18 months,
and also to declare the independence of Fars.
Hajji Kawane, Beghibeg of Shiraz, and the Ilbeghi
of the wandering tribes of Fars, were at the head of
the insurrection. Ever since the 221 October last
an army of 22,000 men had invested the citadel of
Shiraz, a building which scarcely deserves that
name, as it is open almost on every side and com-
manded by the houses around. Its garrison consisted
of 500 able men only, who however contrived, by
prodigies of valour, to hold out for 118 days, and
but lately surrendered, in consequence of the want
of provisions."

BADEN.

A letter from Frankfort, of the 27th, says :—" The
great body of the Imperial army is to arrive to day
at Carlsruhe, and join the Prussians. The Prince of
PRUSSIA 15 to command the united army. General
PEUCHNER resigns his post of General of the Em-
pire, and resumes his rank of Lieutenant-General in
the Prussian army."
According to accounts just received, the federal
fortress of Itastadt, in the Grand Duchy of Baden,
has been evacuated by the insurgents and surrendered
to the Prussians. This, one of the strongest fortified
places in Europe, and ie last bulwark of the insur-
rection, has thus fallen into the hands of the Prus-
sians, and the insurrection may be considered to be
completely repressed. It is known that the Archduke
JOHN, as representative of the Central Power, in-
tended to besiege this fortress with the troops of the
Empire and gain possession of it expressly to prevent
its falling into the hands of the Prussians : but they,
it seems, were beforehand with him.

THE COAL TRADE.

TO THE EDITOR OP THE SU_
Sxn, May I beg the favour of yo
misleading
uto correct amg
f"onudnd place undjci statement, which has un-
n the Leeds Intelligences' of
fortunately
to-day.
Under the bead " Barnsley" we have as follows :
" The Coal Trade.—On Tuesday a numerous meeting of
the coal owners was held at Mrs. Hawkesworth's, the
Royal Hotel, when it was agrecd to reduce the water
sale of coal 64. per ton, on the Ist day of July next."
Now, Sir, no coal owners' meeting was held at the
Royal Royal on " Tuesday" last, and no such resolu-
tion has been passed at any meeting of which I have any
knowledge. The alleged reduction is, therefore, as
baseless as it is mischievous; it is calculated to produce
consternation and alarm in other colliery districts, and
beguile coal-dealers into premature and embarrassing
contracts which may prove only a mockery and a de-
lusion.

As you wield a six-day power, while the Leeds In-
telligencer is merely a one-day-power, and as your circu-
lation is so much in excess over that of a weekly paper,
your obliging insertion of the above will cause the truth
to prove more than a sufficient counterpoise to the error,
and obviate no little confusion and loss.

I remain, Si:, yours, &c.

Chairman of the Yorkshire Coal-trade

" The war of Denmark (says the Independance of

Our correspondent at Hamburgh writes that the
Danish Government, upheld by public opinion, per-
sists in its first conditions, and will carry on the war
rather than make any concession. General RYE ap-
pears to have made some lately successful movements,
which have placed the troops of the empire in rather
a difficult position. These partial advantages can
only more and more confirm the Danish Government
in its resolution."

SCHLES WIG-HOLSTEIN.

- - - - -
HADERSLEEEN, JUNE 26.—Everything is appa-
rently in statu quo at Fredericia, but the general
impression is that hostilities will be commenced
in the course of a few days. The northern
army has now established its head quarters at Aar-
huus. The Imperial troops have advanced two
leagues and a half further southward, but it seems
to be dubious whether or not Randus has yet
been occupied by the Prussian corps. It is true
that on the 21st they were already confronting the
enemy's troops, and a geneeal engagement was ex-
pected, when orders were suddenly given to
halt. The right wing of the Prussians remained
standing, the Danes on the right fell back
upon the peninsular of Kelgemas, while the centre,
composed of Bavarians, made a forward movement,
not a shot was fired on either side.
Reports of an approaching armistice, and of the
amicable solution of the pending negociations are in
continual circulation, but they are reports only
and nothing definite or decisive appears to be yet
determined upon. The large demands made on both
sides, not only relative to the main question, that of
the future relation of the Duchies to Denmark, but
to the blockade expenses and the expenses of the war
under this long contested question, are extremely
difficult to settle. The appearance of the gros of
the Russian fleet will doubtless have some weight ;
as yet only a few isolated frigates and other Russian
vessels have appeared in sight.—Hamburgh Papers.

THE INSURRECTION IN BADEN.
The Grand Duke of Baden was expected at Darn-
stadt on the 26th ult.
The state of siege in which the province of Stark-
raburg had been placed, is removed by order of the
Minister, not a single instance having occurred there
in which martial law was applied.
The Mayence Gazette states the capitulation of
Rastadt is certain—but the Cologne Gazette of the
30th says :—" That the steamer which has just arrived
from Mayence brought no intelligence of the oc-
cupation of that fortress by the Russian troops,
but stated that the fortress had been allowed
three days to capitulate. Private letters assert that
Rastatt has been taken, and that Mieroslawsky, fol-
lowed by the insurgent army, has retired beyond the
Murg. He did not wish to weaken his forces by di-
viding his army, which he must otherwise necessarily
have done, and therefore was obliged to stake the
fortress.
The Karlsruhe Journal, of the 28th, says nothing
of the surrender of Rastadt.

numerously signed by landowners and farmers in DPr-
byshire, praying for a rc-enactmcnt of the corn laws. The
Noble Duke thought their Lordships were trying the
loyalty of the petitioners too far in refusing to do any-
thing for them.
Earl FORTESCUE presented petitions in favour of
an alteration in the terms of the education grant.
IRISH POOR-LAWS.

Earl FORTESCUE presented the report of the Cora
mittee on the Irish poor laws.

ENTAILED ESTATES.

The Duke of RICHMOND presented the report of
the Committee on entailed estates, and moved that the
report be received.—Agreed to.
The NOBLE EARL then brought in a Bill to
carry out the recommendations of the Committee. The
object of the Bill was to enable owners of entailed
estates to borrow money for the purposes of drainage.
The Committee thought it was of great import-
ance that this Bill Should 'yang during the present
session, and he sholud like in the next session
to have the Committee reappointed, in order to
carry the investigation of the subject still further
He should not be able to move the second reading of the
Bill next week, because he should be obliged to attend
his duties at quarter sessions, and he hoped the Noble
Earl at the head of the Woods and Forests would take
charge of it aad give it the support of the Government,
as, unless the Government took it up, there was no chance
of the Bill passing during this session.
The Earl of WICKLOW hoped the measure would
be extended to Ireland.

The Duke of RICAIMOND had ,713..
ino o jecton to -4
ex-
tend the measure to Ireland, but he had been long
enough in Parliament to know that any question con-
nected with Ireland gave rise to lengthened debates, and
he was exceedingly anxious that this measure should
pass during this session.
The Earl of CARLISLE cordially approved
of the objects of this Bill, and although he
would not undertake to state that no alteration
could be found necessary; yet with thatproviso he would
be happy to give to the Bill every support in his power.
Lord BEAUMONT said that no Drainage Bill would
be effectual until they had a law for regulating the out-
lets of drainage. He hoped Government would intro-
duce a measure authorising two-thirds of the landowners
of a district to erect engines for drainage, and to levy
rates for the purpose of defraying the expense of such
engines.
The Bill was then read a first time.
SOUTH AUSTRALIA.

Lord MONTEAGLE presented a petition from the
inhabitants of South Australia, to which he wished to
draw the attention of their Lordships. The petitioners
prayed for a reduction in the franchise proposed in the
new constitution.

are all involved in this election and rejection of Baron
ROTHSCHILD. The son of the Duke of RUTLAND,
my Lord Jous MANNERS, is put forth as the cham-
pion of the Peerage, and affects to be in favour of pro-
tection to " native industry." Is this protecting native
industry, to fine and imprison an industrious man for
following his peaceful occupation ? Lord Joas
MANNERS professes to belong to the Young England
school, so anxious for the social amelioration of the
people. Is this social amelioration, to compel the po-
pulation to have dirty faces and grizzly beards on a
Sunday ?
Yet these are the results arising from making
religious opinions a test for Legislators. Already
the Duke of RUTLAND nominates his two sons
for two out of the forty counties of England—
Leicestershire and Cambridgeshire, to say nothing of
his influence in other counties. Is not one-twentieth
part of
.the county representation a sufficient share
for this grasping Legislator but that he must seek to
nominate to the representation of the city of
London also ? However, the movement will render
it necessary to carry the war into the enemy's camp,
as it is proposed by the Duke of RUTLAND to add the
city of London to his close boroughs, it will be-
come necessary for the friends of civil and
religious liberty to rescue Leicestershire and Cam-
bridgeshire from his nominesship by the creation of
freeholds. The contest between the Peerage and the
People having been commenced must be proceeded
with in real earnest—and " may GoD defend the
right !"
London, England, 1849-07-02

THE NAVIGATION LAWS.

Mr. HERRIES wished to put a question to the Nuble
Lord at the Head of the Foreign Department respecting
the [ ran bill ty that existed of any relaxation being made
in the navigation• laws of the United States, in reply to
the relaxation which had been made in our own laws,
and it so when such concession was likely to be wade.
Lord PALMERSTON said that the Constitution of
the United States ri quired that the President was
obliged to grant relaxations in the laws which regu-
lated the commerce of that country in ports in the
Pacific, no: ports belonging to the United States, equal
to those granted by the Powers holding any other pos-
sessions in that ocean, but he had no expectation that
any present:relaxation of the American tariff would at
present be made.
RETURNS OF ECCLESIASTICAL PLURALI•
London, England, 1849-07-02

SCOTCH BILLS.-PUBLIC HEALTH BILL.

AN HoN. MEMBER referred to the Scotch Marriages
and Registration Bill. He understood they were not to
be proceeded with. What did the Noble Lord propose
doing with the Public Health Bill and the Town's Im-
provement Bills ?

Lord JOHN RUSSELL said there were all important
Bills, and he should be glad to have the opinion of the
House whether they should be proceeded with or not.
The Scotch Members had certainly expressed a strong
disinclination to the Scotch Bills.
JUVENILE OFFENDERS.
Mr. ROEBUCK wished to ask the Attorney-General
a que.tion with respect to a Bill which, though it had
not exited much attention, was, nevertheless, to his
mind, one of the utmost importance—the Juvenile
Offenders Bill.—(Hear, hear.) As the Members con-
nected with Quarter Sessions would be absent next week,
he hoped he would not then bring it on, but he hoped it
would be proceeded with this Session.
The ATTORNEY-GENERAL intended to proceed
with the Bill this session, but should not bring it for-
ward rrod
that to we

Members had given up the Thursdays, that the
Government would not now press for the
Tuesdays, for if they did, how was it possible
at the hour on which such questions might
come on as a difference of the Irish Church.—(Loud
laughter.) It was quite evident that the Noble Lord
had no conscience.—(Renewed laughter.) Ile did hope
then that the Government would not deprive private
Members of the only advantage that they possessed.
MERCHANT SEAMEN'S FUND.

Mr. GLADSTONE wished to ask a question respect-
ing tho intention of the Government concerning the
interest of the mercantile marine. He had hoped tha
some Bill woulo introduced, and until lately hi
had ;lived that a Bill would have been passed this session
for the regulation of the Merchant Seamen's Fund. NG
matter was of more importance to the commercial in-
terests of the country; and if it were much longer delayed
it must of necessity become much more costly than it
would be now. Yet although all expectation of passing such
a Bill during the present session must of course be laid
aside, he did hope that some Bill on the subject would
be laid on the table before the House broke up, as
although little progress could at present be made the
future furtherance of the measure would be greatly
facilitated.

Lord JOHN RUSSELL could give no positive
answer to the question of th© Right Hon. Ueutkrnan, or
pledge himself to anything which he was not sure of ac-
complishing.

TEE FRENCH REPUBLIC.

We have received the Paris papers of Saturday and
of yesterday.
On Friday Captain KLEBER, of the 4th Regiment
of the line, was condemned to death by a CHANGAR •
NIER. appointed court-martial, for high treason, the
said treason consisting in his having cried " Vive la
Constitution" on the 13th June ; General CHANG AR-
NIER and Louis NAPOLEON BONAPARTE having them-
selves sworn to observe that very constitution for
shouting in favour of which Captain KLEBER (a de
scendant of NAPOLEON'S friend, General KLEBER) is
condemned to death.
The National thinks so terrible a sentence cannot
be carried into effect, "for," as it says—

"In the actual state of our manners and in these re-
volutionay times, when a rapid succession of victories
and defeats turns the vanquished of the eve into con-
querors of the morrow, and seems to change law with
power, it appears to us so dreadful a sentence cannot be
executed. Captain Kleber is protected by honourable
services, by the souvenir of the hero of Egypt, so nobly
associated in Egypt with the man of genius whose name
is borne by M. Louis Napoleon. Besides, there is one
consideration on this subject which is decisive, and must
produce an effect in the region of power; it is this:—
Two attempts were made against the Government of
July which are yet present to the minds of the people of
France, recollecting which they could not comprehend a
military execution grounded on the motives invoked
against Captain Kleber, under the administration of the
actual President of the Republic."
The Provisional Government of February abo-
lished the punishment of death for political offences,
and to that abolition many of the men now in power
owe their lives. Now, seeing the precarious tenure
by which power is held in France, it would be lite-
rally suicidal in those at the head of affairs to create
such a precedent as would be created by the exe-
cution of Captain KLEBER.
The Legislative Assembly has authorised the pro-
secution of MM. MARTIN BERNARD, GAMBON, JAMES
DEMONTREY,_ and BRIVES.
General CHANGARNIER has appointed a commis-
sion, composed of a lieutenant-colonel and three
captains, to commence an inquiry into the events of
the 13th, under the direction of the Attorney-
General. _ _ _

BANKRUPTCY BILL.

Mr. B. OSBORNE said there was one Bill of con
aiderable importance, namely, the Bankruptcy Bill.
Lord J. RUSSELL replied that the Bill was under the
consideration of a Select Committee, and he believed
there was a general assent in the Committee to the
Bill, and he hoped that nothing would prevent its pro-
ceeding this session, for he held it to be an important
measure.

TIES.

Mr. HUME complained that the returns of pluralities
which were ordered to be given four months ago had
not been produced. He thought that if the officials
in the several offices from which they were to
emanate were overburthened with work, he thought
that the best thing that could be done would be to dis-
miss them.—(Laughter.) If there was any hope of the
returns being made, he should be glad to hear when
they were likely to be made.
Lord J. RUSSELL said that the returns were very
weighty but would- appear as soon as they could be made

THE HAGUE, JUNE 30.—THE CHOLERA.—Ac-
cording to the official reports, 98 cases of cholera
appeared in this city, from the 231 to the 25th ; of
which 50 proved fatal. Since the re-appearance of
the disease, on the sth June to the 25th, 464 cases
have been brought into the hospital; of which 292
have proved fatal ; 15 fresh cases were admitted on
the 29th, of which five persons died. There were
remaining under treatment 51.
At Leyden there were 44 fresh cases on the 26th
and 27th, and of these 25 proved fatal.—Dutch Papers,

as a last resource, concentrate themselves in the castle
of St. Angelo, which is strongly fortified, and where
they will be able to make a long rdsistance.
Letters from Civita Vecchia of the 24'-h have been
received at Genoa, which state that St. Pancrace had
been retaken from the French, who were driven back
to their old position, after a sanguinary conflict ; and
that there was great dissension between General
OUDINOT and the General of the Engineers, LE-yam-
LANT.

The Contemporaneo states that the celebra;d
Aurora of GUIDO has been struck by the French shot,
and that the Temple of Fortune has been also mate-
rially injured.
The Risorgimento of Turin states from Bologna,
21st, that the Municipal Council having named a de-
putation, to be the bearers of an address to his HOLI-
NESS at Gaeta, expressing the hopes of the Council
that the constitutional statute would be maintained,
Monsignor BEDINA, the Papal Co,imissory, had
objected to the departure of the deputation, on the
ground that it appeared to him inexpedient to express
wishes on political subjects, while the Holy Father
was absent from his States. The Municipal
Council of Bologna replied to this objection of
the Commissary, by insisting upon the necessity of
maintaining the constitutional institution, in order to
restore good feeling between the people and the SO-
VEREIGN. The Council added, however, that it was
ready to adjourn the expression of its opinion till
such time as the Pontifical Government should be
entirely restored. The answer of Monseignor
BE-
DIM was anxiously expected.

POLYTECHNIC INSTITUTION.

During the past week, at this establishment, Dr.
Bachhoffner has been engaged in delivering a lecture
on the various methods of producing artificial ice,
which can be employed in cooling wine, &c. The
production of cold, artificially, depends in all cases
upon one great principle, viz., that when bodies
pass from the solid to the fluid, or from the
fluid to the gaseous condition, they require an
increased amount of heat to enable them to exist in
their new- form ; to produce cold, then, we mealy
have to bring together such bodies as can be made to
pass rapidly from one state to the other, in so doing
they rob surrounding bodies of the heat uhich they
contain, and produce the desired effect, if we place
those bodies we desire to cool in connexion with
them. It will be seen from this that it is necessary
to employ vessels adapted to each particular case, and
for this purpose the patent arrangements of Mr.
Masters stand alone. Many of them were exhi-
bited on the lecture table, and appeared at once
simple, economical, and elegant. It is worthy
of remark that by this contrivance a bottle of
wine may be iced in a few seconds at a very
trifling cost. Amongst the many interesting experi-
ments by the Learned Doctor during his lecture was
an illustration of the extraordinary fact discovered by
Doctor Bontyony, viz, that water may be frozen in
a red hot vessel, if we merely follow out the prin-
ciples before alluded to. The lecture was extremely
well attended by a most respectable audience, who
appeared highly gratified by the simple and pleasing
manner with which the Professor treated his subject.

TOXOPHOLITE BALL.—The annual ball of
this long-established archery society, of which the Earl
of Aylesford, is president, took place on Friday night, at
the Archer's Lodge, Regent's Park. The grounds at-
tached to that charming little retreat were brilliantly
illuminated by thousands of variegated lean. s, and the
avenues which approach the mansion were lighted by
coloured lamps. In front of the lawn, the ordinary prac-
tice ground, a very superb temporary saloon was erected
for dancing, the walls being relieved with coloured dra-
peries. The archer's hall, which communicated with
the ball room, was tastefully lighted by wax candles
arranged in semicircles round the apartment, and among
the conspicuous objects of attention were the numerous
silver trophies belonging to the members of the society.
Another temporary saloon had been erected and hand-
somely decorated, in which refreshments of the choicest
description and a sumptuous supper were supplied under
the admirable superintendence of Bridgeman, of Wig-
more-street.. Dancing commenced shortly after 11, and
was maintained with unabated spirit until after four
o'clock on Saturday morning—Jullien's band being en-
gaged lor the fete. Above 500 members and friends
were present on the occasion.

We gain as much in avoiding the failings of others,
as we do imitating that in which they excel.—Lliza

(THIS EVENING.)

HOUSE OF LORDS.

Their Lordships assembled at Fire o'clock.
The Marquis of LONDONDERRY presented a peti.
tion from Newcastle against any alteration in the Mar.
riage Act.
SCOTCH AND IRISH PACKETS.

The Marquis of LONDONDERRY moved that there
be laid before this House copies of all communications that
have taken place between the Postmaster-General and the
parties who have contracted for carrying the mails from
Greenock to Belfast ; also copies of any contracts that
have been made, stating the period for which they have
been made; and also any statements to show the eco-
nomy and saving proposed by any new arrangements.
After the paper should have been laid upon the table,
he intended to move that after the large sums expended
in improving the harbours o f Port Patrick and Do-
naghadee, it was inexpedient that the packets should
be removed from that station.

The Marquis of CLANRICARDE, so far from ob-
jecting to laying the papers before their Lordships
would move, as an amendment, that the whole of the
correspondence connected with the subject should be
laid before the House.

The motion as amended was agreed to after a. few ob-
servations from the Earl of ELLENBOROUGH.
PETITIONS.
Lord STANLEY presented a petition from certain
persons connected with tho landed interest, praying for
a re-enactment of the corn-laws.

ITALY.
The Marquis of LANSDOWNE laid on the
table the communication from the Austrian Go-
vernment on the subject of the entrance of
Austrian troops into Tuscany. This comm.uTncation
had been made subsequent to the time that question
had been first mooted in the House.
After a few words from the Earl of Aberdeen,

The Marquis of LANSDOWNE said that no formal
communication had been made from Austria at the time
the communication was made from Turin.
The Earl of ABERDEEN said that if the Noble
Marquis had said no written communication had been
made from the Austrian Government he would have
been c rivet, but although not written the communica-
tion was formal.
