AUSTRIAN MOVEMENTS.

The Opinione Nationale has the following respect-
ing the movements of the Austrians :
"It would be difficult to interpret in a pacific
sense the construction of a bridge which the Aus-
trians are actually throwing across the Po, near
Borgo-forte • it can only be in view of some proxi-
mate move ;hat we can explain the presence of the
Dake of Modena in that locality, at the head of
5,000 men, and the concentration of 20,000 Austrians
at Revere. Justly alarmed by these preparations,
the Piedmontese Government is hastily adopting
the necessary measures to repel an attack if neces-
sary. The railway companies have been ordered
to prepare a large number of carriages to be at the
disposal of the military authorities. Bodies of
troops have been sent to the more important points.
Such is the serious state of affairs. Will it be better
or worse after the Warsaw conference ? That has
still to be seen,"

THE WARSAW CONFERENCE.

A letter fiom Warsaw, dated October 22, says :

" Yesterday evening the streets through which
the Emperor had to pass on his way to the theatre
were illuminated, but not with that brilliant and
fairy-like splendour we are accustomed to at Paris.
Ends' of candles stuck in bottles at the windows,
and flaming lampions. The representation at the
theatre attracted crowds, and at 7 o'clock there was
not a seat empty except the private boxes of the
Polish nobility. A whole hour passed before the
Emperor made his appearance.
"Finally he entered, accompanied by Princes
Charles and Albert of Prussia, the Grand Duke of
Saxe-Weimar, the Prince of Wurtemberg, a number
of other Princes, Generals, Aides-de-Camp, &c., all
resplendent with gold and orders. The public rose
respectfully, the orchestra then commenced playing,
and the curtain rose. The ballet, entitled the " Car-
neval de Paris," was admirably executed by some
very pretty dancers. Another ballet is announced
for this evening.
" The Prince Regent of Prussia arrived to-day
about noon at the railway station. He was met by
the Emperor, who immediately started with him for
the Palace of the Belvedere. The Prince was only
accompanied by two of his aides-de-camp, the
Minister of War (who had been specially invited
by the Emperor), M. de Gruner, Secretary of State,
and the other persons b6onging to his usual suite.
:-After having installed his guest, the Czar went
to attend Divine service in the Greek Church, and
also attended mass in the Cathedral of St. Job*.
Thence he proceeded to Praga, to lay the first
stone of the bridge which is to connect the two
shores of the Vistula. This bridge, like that at
Cologne, will serve for a railway bridge as well as
carriages and pedestrians. Although it was blow-
ing very hard, a large concourse of people had as-
sembled, including many eleg =fly dressed ladies.
An immense crowd lined the banks of the riyer.

Timidly cheered, the Emperor crossed the tempo-
rar3r wooden bridge, accompanied by his son, the
Hereditary Prince, and the Grand Dace of Saxe-
Weimar.

" You see there are festivities enough,, and in
appearance politics do not play a great part. It is
said, however, that, while awaiting the arrival of
the Emperor of Austria, the Prussian and Russian
diplomatists have made the most of their time.
The presence of the, Emperor Francis Joseph
appears to be ill viswed by all parties. It is not,
however, thought that any deraonstration of ill
feeling will be made.

,4 The Emperor of Austria, his Ministers, and
diplomatists are not expected here till 4 o'clock this
afternoon,

AUSTRALIA.

The Red Jacket, from Australia, with 36,0000 z.
of gold, arrived off Queenstown at 4 p.m. ; landed
passengers, and proceeded to Liverpool.

AMERICA.

SOUTHAMPTON, FRIDAY.

The United States steamer Arago, Capt. Lines,
which left New York on the 13th inst., has arrived
off Cowes.

During the procession through New York, in
honour of the Prince of Wales, a man stepped from
the crowd and aimed a heavy blow at his Royal
Highness, at the same time giving utterance to the
most opprobrious epithets. The Prince escaped
the blow directed. against him. The ruffian, who
is said to be an insane Englishman, was imme-
diately arrested.
The Prince of Wales' visit had otherwise proved
a great success.

THIS DAY'S MA.RRETS.

CORN EXCHANGE.

A very poor supply of home-grown wheat was on offer
here to-day, both as to quantity and quality. Selected
samples were readily disposed of at quite Monday's cur-
rency, but the value of inferior kinds was next to nominal.
The imports of foreign wheat have exceeded 36,000 quar-
ters; nevertheless holders ware firm, and a fair average
business was passing, both in red and white qualities, at
very full prices.
Floating cargoes of grain sold somewhat slowly, but at
extreme rates.

We have again to report a good consumptive inquiry for
barley, at full prices.
There was a fair but by no means active inquiry for
malt, at quite Monday's quotations.
Oats, the supply of which was moderate, were the turn
dearer, with a good consumptive demand.
Beans and peas were taken off freely, on former terms.
The demand for flour was somewhat restricted, never-
theless, prices were supported.
