AUSTRIA.
The following telegram has been received from
Vienna :

" VIENNA, THURSDAY EVENING.

" An excellent understanding has already been
established between the Derby Ministry and this
Government."

This Government professes to believe that the
Emperor Napoleo'n had no arriere pensee when he
gave orders that the letter addressed to him by
Orsini should be inserted in the Moniteur, but the
public, both of high and low degree, is of a very
different opinion. The prevalent impression is,
that the Emperor of the French published the docu-
ment in order that the Italians might be induced
to consider Austria the sole impediment to the 1.-
alisation of their plan for the unity and indepen-
dence of their native country. The only Austrian
paper which gives expression to the opinion of the
great public on the matter in question is the Folks-
freund, and it could not venture to do so if it did
not enjoy the especial protection of the Archbishop
of Vienna. The clerical organ thus expresses

itself :
" The letter written by Orsini to the Emperor Na-
poleo❑ has created a great sensation, and the eyes of al
those persons who have read that 'last will' (vermachttaiss)
are involuntary turned towards Austria. Let us candidly
express our thoughts on the subject. If the thing had hap-
pened in any other monarchical State we should not hesi-
tate to declare that the character of its Government was
compromi-ed ; but we cannot say as much of the Govern-
ment of the Emperor Napoleon, a 3 Count Morny himself,
asPresidentofthe Legislative Assembly of France,not long
since clearly and distinctly explained that it was perfectly
well aware of its origin, and was, beeidee, firmly resolved
that it should never be forgotten. We are, then, in-
clined to consider the publication of Orsini's letter and
the speech of M. J. Favre as two of those incidental
occurrences (soups de theatre) which the Emperor
Napoleon in his last speech declared to be totally un-
necessary in France."
The total silence of the other papers on a sub-
ject of such importance to Austria is c ►used
by the strict orders they have received to avoid
giving offence to the French Government.
