Z" The anxiety which the reports of
new war in Austria had occasioned, :.
has been augmented by THE late mea-
sures of the Court of Vienna. 1t is
certain that some light corps are TO be
formed, which will be sent to Join diff
ierent regiments. Other military pre-
partitions are likewise making, and
magazines are forming in Bohemia &
Austria. nj. Fasbender, who in the
late campaigns was principal Commits
sa"y to the Austrian army, has been a
gain appointed to that post, and the
Count de Guippe, formerly adiutant
general to Archduke Charles. has been
appointed adjutant to the Emperor.
The Archduke Ferdinand is to take
the Chief Command of an Austrian
army in Bohemia, if war should break
out, and Count Bellegarde will com
mand an.army in Carlnth,a and Car
niola. In the mean time several Gen.
erals who commanded on the Turkish
frontiers, have been recalled to Wen.

held on the subject, and at which both
that Prince and the Archduke Ferdi-
nand, the Brother of the Empress.
were present, it is said, a new general
levy was spoken Of, and different mea-
sures proposed to render it agreeable
