THE ARMISTICE.

The following telegrams have been received at
Mr. Reuter's office :

VIENNA, JULY 10.
The Austrian Correspondence contains the fol-

[owing:—

According to official news from Verona, an
interview between the Emperor Napoleon and the
Emperor of Austria will, in consequence of a desire
expressed by the Emperor Napoleon, take place at
Villafranca at 9 o'clock a.m. to-morrow, the 11th
instant.

FRANKFORT 0.M., SATURDAY.

The Oberpostamts Zeitung contains the following
despatch direct from Verona, dated the Bth July :
At the repeated request of the French, and after
their consent had been obtained to all the conditions
we have asked, an armistice has been concluded.

PARIS, JULY 11.

The Moniteur of to-day explains under what
circumstances the armistice has taken place. The
great neutral powers exchanged communications
with the object of offering their mediation to the
belligerent parties, whose first act was to be an
armistice, but the endeavour to bring about this
result was not successful until some days ago, when
our fleet was about to begin hostilities against
Venice, and a new conflict before Verona was im-
minent.

The Emperor, faithful to his sentiments of mode-
ration, and anxious to prevent useless effusion of
blood, did not hesitate to assure himself whether
the disposition of the Emperor of Austria was con-
formable to his own. It was a sacred duty for the

two Emperors immediately to suspend hostilities
which the mediation could render objectless. The
Emperor of Austria having shown similar intentions
the armistice was concluded.

On Monday the 11th inst. an interview between
the two Emperors will take place at Villafranca.
The Moniteur also publishes the order of the
day contained in the message from Turin of yester-
day.

TURIN, JULY 10.

:he day :

VALEGGIO, July 10.

Soldiers !—An Armistice has been concluded on
the Bth inst. between the belligerent parties, to
extend to the 15th of August next. This truce
will permit you to rest after your glorious labours,
and to recover, if necessary, new strength to con-
tinue the work which you have so gloriously inau-
gurated by your courage and devotion. I am
about to return to Paris, and shall leave the pro-
visional command of my army to Marshal 'Valliant ;
but as soon as the hour of combat will have struck,
you will see me again in your midst to partake of
your dangers.

200 soldiers, 50 of whom were Swiss, revolted
yesterday evening, and left the fort Carmius for
the purpose of rousing the other troops to revolt,
in which attempt, however, they failed. On their

AUSTRIA.
(From the Correspondent of the Times.)
VIENNA, JULY 8,

The day before yesterday Genral Fleury arrived
at Verona, where he had a long interview with the
Emperor Francis Joseph. It was at first believed
that the French General had come to settle the con-
ditions on which the prisoners were to be exchanged,
but it soon became known that there was a question
of a truce or—to use the word employed by my
informant—of an armistice. The audience granted
to General Fleury was a private one ; but still it
yesterday transpired at head-quarters that hostili-

ties were, for atime, to be suspended.
In well-informed political circles it is said that
the British Government brought ab3ut the tempo
rary cessation of hostilities by persuading the Em-
peror of the French to make propositions to the
Austrian Government, which, if accepted, might
serve as a basis for peace. It appears that there is
a question of making Lombardy and Venice an in-
dependent kingdom under an Austrian Archduke,
but two of the parties concerned are sure to object
to such an arrangement. Victor Emmanuel evi-
dently considers Lombardy an integral part of
his kingdom, and the Emperor of Austria is
not the man voluntarily to cede two of the finest
