aLeoulos from Vienna agree in representing the
negociations as so far advanced that intelligence
was every moment expected of the signatuve of
pewee. The interchange of Couriers between
Schoenbrutin and the Castle of Tutus, where the
Emperor of Austria continues to reside, was very
active. There was also expected a Courier from
St. Petersburg, whose dispatches, it was supposed,
would have considerable influence on the negocia-
lion. An Officer of the French Staff had, a short
tinie before, set off for that
.quarter. The Arch-
duke Ferdinand is still in Bohemia, where he is
occupied iu placing thelfortresses iu,a stetter do-
fence.
