VIENNA, June 22.

Nothing authentic is known respecting the nature
of the communications made by the French Am-
bassador to Count Mensdorff.

The .Meue Freie Presse asserts the following to
be an analysis of those communications :
" There is no sort of agreement between France
and Prussia or Italy whereby France could be com-
pelled to take part in the war. She has preserved
her full liberty of action, and, as regards the Italian
question, she will not abandon her present reserved
policy as long as the existence of the Italian king-
dom in its present limits is not menaced by an
Austrian Victory. If Austria will undertake that,
in the event of her successfully repelling the Italian
attack and marching into Italy, she will advance
no further than Milan, France will not only not
interfere, but will, during the negotiations for
peace, assist in bringing about a definitive settle-
ment of the relations between Austria and Italy,
and the conclusion of a durable peace. She will
further propose that Italy shall pay Austria an
adequate indemnity for the latter's renunciation of
the fruits of victory."
Herr Sterger, the Swiss Charge d'Affaires at this
Court, is dead.

Long Moss.

~.....

A most desirable article as a substitute for curled
hair and feathers has for some years been introduced
into the Atlantic cities of the United States. This
article is prepared from what is known as long moss,
which grows most abundantly upon the lowlands
of all the States bordering on the Gulf of Mexico,
and more especially in those regions penetrated by
sluggish bayous and lagoons. The moss when pro-
perly prepared, by rotting away certain perishable
portions, leaves a heart, or thread, .not much larger
than a hair from a horse's tail, and not unlike it in
appearance and quality. These fibrous threads, if
treated much after the manner of curling hair, are
but little inferior to the latter for the production of
mattresses, cushions, &c., for which purpose it is
largely used by the upholsterers of Boston, fi cw
York, Philadelphia, and other great manufacturing
cities of the North. It may have been introduced
into England before this, but, so far as we are ad-
vised, to no very profitable extent, and it is for this
reason that we are induced to direct attention to the
subject now. No doubt the main reason for its non-
introduction on a large scale has been its bulkiness
—it being the usual custom to stuff the moss into
sacks by hand, instead of pressing it into bales, as is
the practice with cotton. If a market were esta-
blished in England for this article, a system of pre-
paring and packing would soon be devised, by
which it could be transported as cheaply as either
cotton or wool, and the original cost per pound
would fall far below the lowest price at which cotton
ever ruled. The great extent of country over which
it grows, and the rapidity of its growth, would jus-
tify a large enterprise in this business ; and if a re-
munerative price with a permanent market were
established, means of securing the moss would be
developed, by which it would be profitable to supply
it at a much lower rate than has been the case here-
tofore. We would advise our merchants, and espe-
cially those connected with the upholstery business,
to look into this matter, for we are confident they
would find a golden return, and the country much
comfort by its general introduction.

THE AUSTRIAN ARMY.

(From the Times Military Correspondent)
HEAD-QUARTERS OF THE ARMY OF TIIE
NORTH, OLMUTZ, June 19.
Until an attack is intended to be delivered, or a
menaced point protected, Ohnutz is well fitted to be
the point from which to organise and direct an
army which is face to face with the Prussian
boundary line. In the centre of a circle, of which
the railways to Vienna, Prague, and Cracow are
radii, and these cities points in the circumference,
the commander of the Nord Armee, like a spider in
her web, is sensitive to the touch of its furthest ex-
tremities, and well prepared to direct his troops or
to. present himself wherever needed at the shortest

notice.
Only two great roads by which an army could
enter Moravia lead over the Sudeten GAirge, and
both pass through Olmutz, so that it stands in the
direct route of an invader, and must be taken if his
artillery and heavy stores are to pass.
Before the days of rifled guns the fortress itself
was strong enough for all purposes, but long range
cannon must be kept at a respectful distance, and
a series of more than 30 lunettes with central case-
mated batteries, have been or are being built round
it at a distance of from 6,000 to 8,000 paces from
the enceinte.

All is now activity here. The silence is broken ;
war is a fait accompli; the troops are moving, and
on Thursday next head-quarters will be changed,
as I imagine, in a westerly direction.
The Saxon army has formed a junction with the
Austrian, and the actual clash of weapons cannot be
long delayed.
Gablenz arrived to-day, and is to take command
of the 10th Corps d'Armee. The 6th, about 40,000
strong, marched through to-day from Weisskirchen,
a distance of about 22 English miles, and go on to-
morrow, but as to whither the oracle is mute.
The men look well and hearty. The army gene-
rally is free from sickness, and desirous to be led
against the enemy. People still say that the attack
is to be made on the edge of the Silesian wedge, but
till I see it I shall not believe it.
Field-Marshal Benedekis headquarters move on
Thursday to Trubau, in Bohemia.

FANKFORT, June 20

The English tourist travelling through Belgium
and Rhenish Prussia to the centre of the late Ger-
man Confederation can scarcely realize that the
first shots of another great Bin rher Krieg have been
fired. Indeed, so long is it since the Rhein-landers
last witnessed the miseries and havoc of war, that
many of them still shake their heads incredulously
when the subject is mooted, and evidently regard
Royalmanifestoes as akindof Theater-spiel. On one
point alone a sad certainty exists—the Rhine hotels
are absolutely empty. "We see no one, sir," said
an hotelkceper at Coblentz, " but a stray English-
man hurrying up to see the fight." Leaving these
enterprising gentlemen to encounter the disappoint-
.inents which I much fear are in store for them, let

sequently in this country, in 1857. No other company as-

dividual member of the least distinction who belonged to the
original troupe. The Christys (after an absence of five years)

sparkling in London.

THE REFORM BILL.

CITY OF LONDON.
A public meeting of the inhabitants of Farring-
don Ward Without, convened by Sir James Duke,
alderman of the ward, in compliance with a nume-
rously signed requisition, was held last evening at
the Sessions Court, Old Bailey, "for the purpose of
considering the principles of the reform bill now in-
troduced by the Government." The worthy baronet
took the chair, and was supported by several mem-
bers of the Common Council. Mr. Wooltorton
addressed the meeting at some length, and moved a
resolution to the effect that the enfranchisement bill
proposed by the Government was a satisfactory
measure and deserving of support. Mr. Payne se-
conded the resolution, which was spoken to by Mr.
Tasker, and carried. Mr. Butcher proposed the next
resolution—" That this meeting, understanding that
the Government is distinctly pledged to supplement
the present measure by a bill embodying the prin-
ciple of a redistribution of electoral districts be-
lieves such a measure is absolutely necessary." Mr.
Wright seconded the resolution, and it was supported
by Mr. Hatch and agreed to, as was also a petition
to Parliament in favour of the bill. A public
meeting of the inhabitants of the ward of Bishops-
gate Without was held last evening in the large
azsembly-room of the Fox and Grapes Tavern,
Primrose-street, for the purpose of adopting reso-
lutions in support of the Reform Bill now before
Parliament. Mr. Henry Parnall took the chair,
and, having opened the business of the meeting,
addresses were delivered by Mr. John Richardson,
C.C., Mr. Taylor, and other influential residents of
the district ; and resolutions were carried declaring
the Reform Bill a just and honest measure, and a
petition was prepared for presentation to Parliament
praying it to pass the second reading of the bill by
a large majority.

THE LOSS OF L'ABBE.

Mr. B. COCHRANE asked the Under Secretary of State
for Foreign Affairs whether the Foreign-office have re-
ceived any despatches to justify the hope that there are
some survivors of the ship L'Abbe, which was wrecked
off Tenadi Nuova in 1855, still detained as prisoners
among the Somaali on the coast of Africa; and, if so,
whether the Government would take any steps to procure
their release ?

Mr. LAYARD said the Government felt deeply for the
families of the persons who had perished by the loss of
this vessel. It had been supposed that all persons on board
had perished, but in 1861 it was supposed that some of the
survivors were in the Somaali country, and, accordingly.
inquiries were made which led to the belief that the hope
was altogether unfounded. But since that some hides had
been brought to Zanzibar with European characters cut
upon them, and that had led again to the belief that some
white people were in the Somaali country. It was inha-
bited by a very wild race of people, and was almost inac-
cessible, but the Government had requested Dr. Living-
stone and Dr. Kirk, the latter of whom was proceeding to
Zanzibar to make the most searching inquiry as to whether
any white people were in captivity. He could assure
the hon. gentleman that the Government would do all in
their power to effect the release of any Europeans, if it
should prove to be true that there were any under the un-
fortunate circumstances referred to by the hon. gentleman
opposite. (Hear, hear.)
INCOME OF WORKING MEN.
_

Mr. B. STANHOPE asked the Chancellor of the Ex-
chequer what information existed as to the amount of the
aggregate income of the working men of this country, and
on what basis that amount had been calculated ?

The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said he
was not aware that anything which could be called infor-
mation existed on the subject. His observations had been
made upon computations derived from the census returns,
but that could not be called information. It was merely
an opinion.
