LATEST INTELLIGENCE.

(REUTER'S TELEGRAMS.)

THE WAR CRISIS.

BERLIN, JUNE 2.

The Austrian Government has justified the arma-
ments of the States of the Germanic Confederation
to the representatives of the Great Powers, on the
ground that those States have to take into consi-
deration the possibility of Federal execution against
Prussia, as the latter questions the right of the
Federal Diet to settle the differences respecting the
succession to the Elbe Duchies.

VIENNA, JUNE 2.

The Prince Archbishop of Brixen has addressed
a pastoral to the clergy of his see, declaring the
highest
.interests of the Catholic Church to be in-
volved in the impending conflict.

A semi-official article says—" Great importance
is attached to the obstacles which exist in the
way of a settlement of the questions to be dis-
cussed by the Conference."
As regards Venetia it is considered that it will
be most difficult to find the means of compensating
Austria for the cession of that province, even should
Austria be willing to entertain the idea of compen-
sation.

MUNICH, JUNE 2.

Several officers of high -rank have arrived here
from Wurtemburg, Electoral Hesse, Baden, and
Nassau, in order to be present at the deliberations
to be held at the residence of the Minister of War.
CARLSRUHE, JUNE 2.

The Grand Duke of Baden left here to-day for
Palnitz, where, by mutual desire, a meeting will
take place between his highness and the King of
Saxony. The official Carlsruhe Zeitung states that
the motives of the meeting are the threatening po-
sition of affairs in Germany, and the wish expressed
on all sides for a peaceful settlement of pending
difficulties by means of Federal reform.

opportunity of settling the question.

FRANCE.

PARIS, JUNE 2.

The Constitutionnel of this morning, in an article
replying to the opinions of the Opinion Nationale
respecting the Conference, says :
" We believe in the sincerity of the replies of
those powers, who, though a short time back ex-
clusively engaged in preparations for war, have
now consented to come to a conference and delibe-
rate on the best means of maintaining peace.
Without forgetting the serious difficulties and the
unforeseen incidents which may arise, we place the
greatest hopes in the sincere efforts of the different
Governments assembled in Congress to give satis-
faction to the manifest wants and wishes of the
populations."

Milner's Patent Safes.

TO THE EDITOR OF TIIE SUN.

Sir,—Misstatements having appeared that the safe
opened at the Manchester Stamp-office "was a new
Milner's safe," and also that the safe had about 12
months ago been sent to the makers to be made
thief-proof, we shall feel obliged if you will allow
us, through your valuable columns, to contradict
these statements. The safe was an old one, sold
in 1858, the same year as the safe was sold in that
was opened at the Cornhi]l robbery last year by the
novel and before unheard-of process so clearly de-
scribed by the convict Case]y on the trial, " Walker
v.Milner," by which means any safe made before 1865
may be forced open. The robbery was effected in
both cases between Saturday and Monday, embrac-
ing from 36 to 40 hours. Since the robbery in Corn-
hill we have effectually prevented the successful
application of the same method.

By inserting this note, and so allaying the un-
necessary alarm of those who have purchased our
modern safes of lists 3,4, or 5, you will oblige.--
Your obedient servants,
JNO. MILNER AND SON.

ercion or intimidation of tenants at will by landlords or
their agents, or interference on the part of peers, shall be
proved to have occurred in the election of any member for
any county or division of a county, the voting for the
members for such county or division of a county at all
