AUSTRIA.

Of course the prevailing emotion at Vienna con-
tinues to be a sort of delirious exultation on the suc-
cesses recently achieved by the German troops in
Lombardy.

The Wiener Zietiiiig published the following report
to the Minister of War :

" God save the Emperor,—

. .
" Honour and glace to the heroic Imperial troops in
Italy. May everlasting fame surround the victories of
the gallant Field-Marshal Radetzky.
" Major-General Prince Lichtenatein has just arrived
from Italy with the following intelligence:—
" ' Head-quarters at Milan, Aug. 8.
" ' The city of Milans is ours.

" 'lt has submitted to the clemency of his Majesty
the Emperor. This day at noon I entered it with my
victorious army.
" • The Piedmontese troops left to-day. According
to a convention concluded with them and with the
city of Milan, they must by this day at seven o'clock
have crossed the Ticino, and be without the boundaries
of the Imperial territory.
" Two weeks have elapsed since our army entered
upon the offensive at Verona. In that time it has
fought famous battles at Somina-Compagna, Custozza,
Volta, Cremona, and Pizzighettone. Now, on the
fourteenth day, it is in possession of the capital of
Lombardy.
"'The army and its leaders have thus faithfully done
their duty to their beloved Emperor and country, for no
enemy stands on Lombardian ground. "
The bearer of this dispatch to the Minister of War,
Count Clam, is one of the bravest generals of the army.
Another of my Gallant Generals, Prince Lichtenstein,
carries a copy of the same dispatch to his Majesty the
Emperor at Innspruck.
" RADETZKY, Field-Marshal.
" The wretched Provisional Government at Milan have
been overthrown. Again does the Imperial eagle tower
proudly over Milan and all Lombardian cities.
" The disgraceful treachery of Lombardy to the Aus-
trian Government, and to the whole of Germany, has
.been foiled by the victorious armies of Austria. The
just cause has triumphed!
"God save the Emperor!"
The Vienna Cabinet is said to have dispatched a

debt, and the conclusion of an advantageous treaty
of commerce.

The EMPEROR was expected to arrive in the capital
on the 12th, having left Innspruck on the Bthins t"
at half- past eight o'clock in the morning. Previous
to his departure his MAJESTY issuQd the following
address : •
" To my beloved Tyrolese,
" Throughout the whole of my stay among you you
have given many fresh proofs of your st.adfast and
justly-renowned fidelity and attachment. Under every
circumstance, and at this time, when the weal of the
empire demands my presence in the capital, for the
discharge of my duties, I feel constrained to offer you
my heartfelt thanks, and cordially to wish you adieu;
and I further add the assurance that, though far sepa-

The Tyroleans responded to this adieu with the
most enthusiastic acclamations on the departure of
the imperial cortege.

PRUSSIA.

News from Berlin is up to the 12th instant.
The cholera continues to spread, but hitherto with
slow progression. The number of cases have reached
27 since the first eruption on the 31st ult. It is re-
marked here as elsewhere, that the disease first com-
mences to exhibit itself amongst boatmen or persons
residing close to the water. In the meantime the
population of Berlin continues to increase rapidly,
the statistics of the week from the 29th July to 4th
August giving an increase of 55 births over deaths,
which is at the rate of 2,900 per annum on a popula-
tion of 400,000 souls.

The KING started this morning for Magdeburg.
The QUEEN departed nearly at the same time to
visit her MAJESTY'S twin-sister, the Princess JOHN of
Saxony, at Dresden. M. BUNSEN attended the KING,
and will probably proceed direct from Cologne to
London.
