A LTSTRIA,

Intelligence has been received from Vienna up to
the evening of the 18th. The peace of the city had
up to that time been preserved. HAFNER, the editor
of the Constitution, MAHLER, a collaborateur, and
TuvoßA, both newspaper writers, had been appre-
hended; for endeavouring to proclaim a republic, and
had been taken under a strong military escort to
the prison on the Alser Glacis ; they were followed
by a large number of persons, but no attempt at a
rescue had been made.

The whole of the garrison—infantry, cavalry, and
artillery—were stationed on the Glacis and in the
Burg.

The National Guard were on duty, and the Central
Committee had expressed confidence in the intentions
of the Ministers, and declared their intention to sup-
port them unconditionally in any measures they
thought necessary for the public safety.
The students had also published an address to the
working classes, exhorting them to be peaceable.
It was reported that the Archduke JouN had ar-
rived in Vienna.

Information had, it was said, been received from
Prague by telegraph, stating that the Bohemians re-
fuse to send Members to the Diet as modified on the
15th May, the constitution previously promulgated
being entirely in accordance with their wishes.
According to advices from Visnadello, Generals
NUGBNT, SCIIELSIG, CULLOZ, and SCHAFGOTSCIIE had
arrived before the walls of Treviso. At nine o'clock
in the morning of the 14th Count NUGENT had called
upon the people to surrender, and gave them three
hours for consideration.

The intelligence from Vienna is to the 19th of May.
The Minister at War had announced, in an order
of the day, that the Council of Ministers had taken
all the necessary measures to secure the public
safety. The National Guard and the Academic
Legion having claimed to place themselves under the
orders of the Commander-in-Chief, and to obey
the orders of the Council of Ministers, order is
restored.

The Ministerial Council has issued the following
circular, in reply to an article which appeared in the
Wiener Zeitung of the 18th :

" The Ministerial Council has read in the unofficial
part of the Wiener Zeitung of this day a comparison
drawn between the presumed departure of his Majesty
the Emperor from Vienna and the flight of Louis XVI.,
with the remark that the last day of the presence of
the Emperor at Vienna would be the first day of the
Republic.'

"The Ministerial Council surely speaks in the name
of the entire population of Vienna, as of the whole
country loyally devoted to his Majesty, when it repu-
diates with indignation and firmness such a misrepre-
sentation of the feelings or of the intentions of the in-
habitants of Vienna towards the overthrow of the con-
atitutianal monarchy.
"In this construction put upon a determination of his
Majesty concerning a choice of a temporary residence,
in this or that portion of the constitutional kingdom, the
Ministerial Council can only behold a regretable error
or indignity of a few against the unshaken loyalty of the
Austrians of every race for their Sovereign.
" The Provisional Ministry feels itself called upon to
make this declaration to all the citizens of Vienna, and
will know bow, in unison with the whole population of
Vienna, and supported by the National Guard, as also
by the Imperial troops, not only to preserve order and
peace with a firm hand, but will also know how to pro-
tect monarchical constitutions and the unshaken and
proverbial loyalty and fidelity of the servants of their
beloved Emperor.
" The Minister, ad interim, of his Majesty the Emperor.
" Vienna, May 18, 1848.
