note, uche5sto our government de-
maDd IN the most insolens terms, ing
pc emptory explanation of the objects OF
the warlike preparations going forward
in the Austrian dominions, and the ex-
traordlnary ACTIVITY in the military de-
cartment. The note also demands Pc
remp,ory answer, whether il was the lnten.
ton OF Austria TO 60 to war with France i;
whether any recent treaty had been con-
cLderl with Russia, or whether any alliance
with that power was on the point OF being
coocluded? The answer of the court Of
Vienna to these interrogatorics was highly
dlpnifed. II stated, that the assembling
of such large bodies Of French troops nae
rendered precautions 90 the part OF Aus
tria indispensable All the negotiations
with Russia had solely for their object az
armed neutrality, and that any more init
mate connection with foreign powers mus
depend solely on circumstances.
Immediately after this answer was given.
the French ambassador gave assurances
that the greatest part of the French troops
should quit Italy.
