AUSTRIA.

A letter from Vienna, in the .Frankfort Journal,
says :

"The Roman prelate, Monsignor Nardi, has left
us, and we maintain what we asserted before, that
he had not any direct mission to the Court and
Government, and that all the rumours to that effect
were erroneous. We do not, however, mean to
pretend that his interview with the Cardinal Pri-
mate at Gran did not partake of the character of
confidential conferences on the state of affairs, or
that the visit he paid with the Papal Nuncio to the
Minister of the Interior was a simple visit of cere-
mony.
" Without being initiated in the details, we aro
enabled to state as a positive fact, that the question
of the revision of the Concordat was really discussed,
and that the high ecclesiastical dignitaries showed
themselves much more disposed than might have
been expected to look upon the question in a politi-
cal point of view.
" The situation of the Pope does not allow him
to create embarrassments to a Prince and friendly
State,,:and to make new enemies ; thus it is inexact
that a remonstrance was made to the Emperor
against his Government, and in favour of con-
fessional unity in the Tyrol.

"In general the attitude of the clergy has lat-
terly been reserved, subtile, and defensive. Mon-
signor Nardi has essentially contributed to
.mode-
rate the hostile attitude of the Episcopate towards
the Government, and has earnestly entreated it to
avoid all provocation. Thus, the Roman prelate
was received in the most friendly manner when
he paid his farewell visits."
