AUSTRIA.

The latest infelligence from Vienna is to the IGth
instant.

In the evening sitting of the Diet on the 15th
SCHUSELKA, in the name of the Committee, stated
that the situation was nearly the same. The position
of the Croat and Hungarian armies had not changed,
and it was probable that only the advanced guard of
the Hungarians had arrived on the Austrian territory.
It was said that even at that moment the report of
cannon was heard. In the interior of the town the
excitement was calming down. The organisation
was excellent; the measures of defence well taken,
and the staff well composed. A dispatch from M.
LAZANSLI, Governor of 011mutz, had been re-
ceived. It announced that the EMPEROR had arrived in
that city on the day before, at boar o'clock, and
Was received with immense enthusiasm by the
people, who took out his horses, and drew his
carriage. A second telegraphic dispatch had an-
nounced that he was to receive the deputation of the
Diet at eleven o'clock. A Deputy of German Bo-
hemia, district or Liebmeritz, stated that he had re-
ceived an address from the Central German Club of
Tceplits, exhorting the Assembly not to leave Vienna,
and that other districts were about to send similar

Committee on the Constitution caused by some of
the members having left Vienna, and that the sec-
tions should afterwards discuss the Bill on funda-
mental rights.

A letter from Vienna, of the I 6 th, which appears
in the Cologne Gazette, says, " The only important

news I have to communicate is, that JELLAcurcii is
gradually changing his position, and is withdrawing
towards Wiener eustadt, probably with a view to
make sure of the high road to Hungary and Steier-
mark. WINDISCIIORATE has concentrated all the
troops he could lay hold of in Bohemia, and Is ad-
vancing towards Vienna or Presburg. Deputy
LORNER has returned from Oliniitz. LOUIER and
13RAuNER have been called to the EMPEROR'S head-
quarters."
Another letter, dated the 16th, says :—"No battle
yet. The reason why the Hungarians have not made i
their attack s this—General MESSAROS does not
think it advisable to march against the Croats with-
out 20,000 regular troops and 30,000 guards,"
The permanent committee of the Diet of the
Tyrol, and the Governor, have decided to concert
with all the functionaries and magistrates, to accept
neither concessions nor resolutions of the Vienna Diet,
unless they be accredited and confirmed by the EM-
PEROR. The garrison of Salzburg has received
orders to set out for Lintz.

PRUSSIA.
RENEWAL OF THE EMELTTE IN BERLIN.
Further disturbances .took place at Berlin on the
17th. At about two o'clock the Market of the Gen-
darmes was occupied by an immense crowd, carrying
at least twenty sags, one of them enveloped in crape.
IVl.,l3autiaNns, a deputy, harangued the people, who
became calm as he spoke; M. WALDECK stood by
his side. The workmen handed him a petition de-
manding, as was stated, the liberation of the prisoners,
assistance to the wounded at the expense of the State,
pensions to the families of the victims, that the
workmen should receive a day'a wages, and that
the Ministry should be dismissed. The work-
men announced that they would present themselves
the next day to receive the answer. Some one hav-
ing exclaimed that the National Guard were ap-
proaching, the workmen gathered on the steps of the
theatre and cried, " Remain, do not run away I" but
it turned out to be a false alarm. A little while
after, however, the National Guard surrounded the
theatre, though not until the crowd had dispersed, in
consequence of a heavy shower of rain. The depu-
ties were able to leave without being disquieted.
The rain continued all the afternoon, and tranquil-
lity was not again disturbed.—The Minister of the
Interior of Prussia gave, in the sitting of the Na-
tional Assembly on the 17th, an account of the
;steak at Berlin, the same as that in the letters
we publish. The Minister, however, said that
he had not obtained full information respecting
the origin of the disturbances. M. TEMONH com-
plained that armed consables had appeared in
the rear of !the position occupied by the civic
guard. The Minister of the Interior admitted that
the public squares had been occupied by the armed
constables, but they had orders not to act with the
civic guard. In answer to a question, the Minister
said that a promise had been given to take the affair
of the insurgents of Treves into consideration with
respect to the promised amnesty. The President
gave an account of the reception of the deputation of
the Assembly on the King's birthday, and read the
speech which he had delivered. As to the King's
answer, he said he could not venture to give it from
memory. In the sitting of the 16th some sensation
was created by a Radical Deputy having declared
that the Crown had " struck the people on the face,"
by the King having spoken of his authority to a de-
putation as derived " from the grace of God." One
section of the Chamber tumultuously demanded that
the speaker should be called to order, but this was
not agreed to.
The Prussian Monitor, of the 18th, announces that
a judicial investigation into the circumstances of the
late disturbances at Berlin has been commenced. The
number of persons killed is stated officially to be
eleven. The city was perfectly tranquil on the 18th.
In the sitting of the National Assembly on that day
a petition, signed by 14,000 workmen, was presented
praying for the punishment of the National Guards
who fired on the people, and that the victims might
be interred at the cost of the State. The Assembly
having decided on a judicial investigation of the cir-
cumstances, passed to the order of the day.
