VIENNA, SEPTEMBER 23.

There has been, it is said, a Grand Council of War
held at the Castle of Totis, at which the Emperor of
Austria and his two brothers, the Archdukes Joseph
and John ( Palatine of Hungary ), and Generals Belle-
garde, Duke of Radzesky, the Prince of Lichtenstein,
and some others assisted.

The Emperor of Austria has conferred upon his
brother-in-law the chief command of the insurrection
in Transylvania.
It is even said that this Prince has set out for Her-
manstadt and Clausenburg.
He has received very strict orders to cause to ad-
vance towards the Danube the Transylvanian corps,
of which not a single man has as yet appeared in the
campaign.
General Bubna arrived here the day before yester-
day, and set out again yesterday, to return to Totis.
We conclude, from his prompt return, that all obsta-
cles are on the point of disappearing, notwithstanding
the reports of new preparations for an approaching
rupture.
SEPT. St.—The Duke of Rivoli (Marshal Massena)
has gone with several other Marshals and Generals to
the army. • On the 21st, the Saxon contingent of
troops arrived here.
The warehouses of some merchants are sealed up,
in order to examine whether they contain any Eng-
lish goods.
Many large houses in the suburb of Leopolstadt,
near the Tabor-bridge, have been pulled down in or-
der to erect bridge-heads.
The following changes have lately taken place in
the Austrian army :Radezky, who formerly served
under Melas in Italy, is Quarter Master General, in
the room of General Wimpsen, with the Emperor, as
Generalissimo.
A Secret Council of War has been established, con-
sisting of the following persons : the Archduke John
as Vice Generalissimo, Belligarde next to him, Prince
John of Lichtenstein, and General Duca.

The late nine corps of the army are now reduced
to five, in the following manner : The Ist (formerly
Bellegaide's) is commanded by Fresnel ; the 2d
(formerly Collowrath's) now Hohenzollern's ; the
3d (formerly Hohenzollern's) new Klenau's ; the
4th (Rozenberg's) is dissolved ; the sth (formerly
Archduke Lewis's) now Reuss's. The 6th, formerly
Hiller's ; the 7th, under Archduke Ferdinand, as well
as the Bth and 9th, under the Archduke John, are
disbanded. Prince Rosenberg is Governor of 01-
mutz, and Frohn, instead of Frolich, Commandant.
Archduke Ferdinand and Kienmayer under him,
commanded the new Bohemian army, consisting of
the corps of Generals Radivofewics and Am Ende of
the new conscripts and the landwehr.
SEPT. 427.—0 n the 23d the Emperor reviewed four
battalions that had come from Saxony, and belonging
to several of the reigning Princes of Saxony.
By order of Government, a number of French i
eagles have been manufactured in the suburbs. Se-
veral waggon loads of them have already been brought
into the city.
The Police Horse Guard of this capital is now mo-
delled after the French Gendarmerie, and has receiv-
ed a new unifiirm.

All the camps in the environs are frequented by a
number of visitors. The most Superb is that of Er-
zendortF, near Schoenbrunn. It looks as if it were
in the middle of a wood, from the numerous fir-trees
which the soldiers have planted about their huts.
The camp of the Wirtembergers, between the vil-
lages of Waaring and Doebelling is also deserving
of notice. The inhabitants visit it in crowds, at-
tracted by the delightful situation in which it is pitch-
ed, and the beautiful prospect which is seen from it.
—This corps is under the ccmmand of General Van
Damme.

The following is the mode in which the literary
censorship, established by the French Government in,
Vienna, is exercised :
" His Excellency M. Bacher, Minister of Police, permits all
printed works that are brought to him to be immediately put in
circulation, except those upon political subjects, which must tin-
dery a previous examination. All manuscript works sent to the
press here must first be submitted to a Board of Revision, which
reports thereon to the Minister of Police."
