AUSTRIA .

A letter from Vienna, in the Bcerscnhalle of
Hamburg, says :—" Prince Kallimaki, the new
Turkish Ambr -sador at Vienna, has had several
conferences with Count Buol touching the question
of the Principalities. It is stated that the views of
the Porte regarding the union are identical with
those of Austria, and that it has not allowed
itself to be influenced in this respect by the policy
of England and France."
According to a Vienna letter of the 24th, in the
New fYurtzburg Gazette, the negotiations for con-
voking a congrc-s to consider the state of Italy are
still in their first stage, and it is not unlikely that
they will lead to no result. It is asserted that
Austria will not consent to a congress unless all the
Italian States consent to it, a thory which is not
adopted by the other powers. It appears, more-
over, that besides Sardinia, the Pope and the King
of Naples object to a congress. The latter espe-
cially has pronounced himself against it with great
energy, declaring that he would vigorously oppose
any measure calculated to infringe his sovereign
rights. i

The Vienna Gazette publishes the speech de-
livered by Cardinal ViAle-Prela, the Papal Nuncio,
and President of the Assembly of Austrian Bishops,
at the last meeting of that body. The speech
affords no inform .tion as to the result of the deli-
berations of the episcopal body, but makes a eulo-
gium on the Emperor Francis Joseph, ou the piety
which distinguishes him, and on the eagerness he
shows to fulfil the wishes expressed by' the episco-
pacy.

THE QUEEN'S VISIT TO SCOTLAND.

EDINBURGH, FRIDAY EVENING.

Her Majesty, availing herself of the beautiful weather,
this morning left Holyrood Palace at ten minutes after
11 o'clock, for a drive through this ancient city. The
Queen, who was accompanied by her Royal Highness
the Princess Royal, and attended by the Marchioness
of Ely and the Hon. Mary Seymour, the Lady and Maid
of Honour in Waiting, drove through Prince's-street and
the Lothian-road, by Heriot's Hospital, down the Canon-
gate, and past the palace into the Queen's-park. Thence
the Royal party made a circuit of Arthur's Seat by the
new drive, known as the Queen's Ride. His Royal
Highness Prince Albert, with Major-General the Hon.
C. Grey and Col. the Hon. C. B. Phipps, accompanied
her Majesty on horseback. The reception of her Ma-
jesty and illustrious party was at every point most cordial.
At 4 o'clock the royal carriages were ordered to the
palace, for the Queen and the Prince Consort
and younger branches of the Royal family to visit
some of the interesting localities in the neighbour.
hood of the city. A few minutes after four her
Majesty and his Royal Highness Prince Albert, the
Princess Royal, and royal party, left the palace, and
drove through the park by the Dalkeith road to inspect
Craigmillar Castle, thence proceed by Liberton to Lass-
wade. There the royal cortege crossed the Esk to the re-
nowned Hawthornden. Her Majesty and party there
alighted, and walked through the romantic glen to Ross
lyn Chapel, one of the most beautiful architectural
remains in Scotland. There the Queen and illus-
trious circle were met by the royal carriages, by which
they returned to Holyrood Palace at half past seven
o'clock.
This time-honoured city is partially illuminated this
evening in complement to the Sovereign, and a joyous
excitement prevails amongst the loyal inhabitants.
Her Majesty and Royal Family will leave, according
to the arrangements made, at a quarter before nine to-
morrow (Saturday) morning for her "Highland home"
at Balmoral.

A letter from Odessa of the 10th, in the Bourse Ga-
zette, says :—" The Tartars of Simpheropol and the
neighbourhood refuse to work for landowners, or exact
such high wages that it is impossible to grant them.
The crops are consequently perishing in the fields for
want of reapers."
The Dresden Gazette says that the Archduke Charles
Louis of Austria will on the Gth of September make a
formal demand for the hand of the Princess Margaret of
Saxony, and that a grand fete will be afterwards given
At Court.
