deuce on the company appointed to assist the commis-
sioners of the police, which being returned by some
isolated shots on the side of the troops, gave the signal
for an alarm. The garrison came out to the alarm-posts;
Count Castiglione visited the citadel, and then went
to the main square, where four companies of infantry
and a division of cavalry were drawn up. On his arrival
here it was announced that barricades were being con-
structed in many of the streets. The first barricade in
the Florianigasse was immediately stormed ; a shower
of balls fell from the neighbouring houses on the troops
engaged in this service. The barricade was so deep and
high that it did not appear possible to take and
maintain it without heavy loss. It was evident from this
first assault that the rising was general, and that conse-
quently a longer continuance in the narrow streets would
have led only to ueless bloodshed.
" The divisions which stood on the Ring-platz were
withdrawn, and led into a concentrated position at the
foot of the Castle, already indicated by the alarm which
had been given. In the attack above-mentioned, Count
Castiglione was wounded by a shot in the head and side.
He, however, retained the command for some time,
ordered the town to be fired upon from the citadel, and
transferred the command of the troops to me, at a
quarter before 6.
" The bombardment was continued. At last at 7in
the evening, Prince Jablonowski and Count Adam
Potocki made their appearance with a flag of truce, and
declared themselves ready to accept all the conditions
required by the military, and adapted to the exigency of

the occasion.
" The bombardment was stopped, after which
hostilities
ceased.

up from the date of the present capitulation, and no new
committee is to be formed.
" 3. The now existing National Guard is to be strictly
purified and re-organized according to the regulations
contained in the patent of the 15th March, and the
subsequent instructions of the Minister of the Interior.
" 4. All the barricades erected in the city of Cracow
are to be opened and entirely removed by eight o'clock
to-morrow at the latest.
"5. The injuries proved to be sustained in consequence
of this day's occurrences by the Austrian military indi
viduals and the officers of Government, are to be made
good by the city.
" 6. All private individuals, and the National Guard
especially, are to lay down their arms.
" A full amnesty is assured to all concerned in these
occurrences.
" In conclusion, the first point of the preceding con-
ditions is so far modified that as the entire removal of
the emigrants cannot be effected within 24 hours, on
account of their great number, the term for their entire
departure from the Austrian territories is enlarged to
three days.

The selection of the Wahlmanner passed off with-
out the slightest disturbance.
From the Journal of the Austrian Lloyds, of the
26th, it appears that the war-brig Montecuccoli
three gun-boats, and one peniche were cruising in
the gulf, to hinder all communications with Venice.
The frigate Bellona was to leave Pola on the 28th
with the same object, and another frigate, the Venere,
and the brig Oreste, were to join the fleet in a few
days. According to the last account, the negotia-
tions with Palma have led to no result, and
the report of the capitulation of Treviso was, to say
the least, premature. The brigade Schulzig was
posted in Codroipo, and had sent a detachment to the
opposite shore. Cervignano is said to have sur-
rendered. The communication between Verona and
Mantua was interrupted on the 24th.
The Hungarian Government has sent a Commis-
sioner to Presburg to make an inquiry into the late
disturbances, as well as to investigate the conduct of
the authorities, and to take steps, if necessary, for
disbanding the National Guard of that place.
