That Austria is ayerse to a war 10
well known. The only object OF the
| interview last. year at Hsnoyer, be-
tween Prince Metternich and the King
| of England and his minister. was to
concert as to the means to be employed
to prevent a rupture lbetween Russia
and Turkey, The political system OF
Austria is founded on the preservation
| of the present order Of things, even IN
| Turkey.-The revolutionary spirit which
! the Court Of Vienna perceives through
ont Europe is the cause of its efforts to
prevent a war, whose consequences can
not be f~orseen. 1t is said that our MI
| ~nisters would rather consent to the ces-
| sion of Wallachia and Moldavia to Rus
| sia. notwithstanding the dangers conse-
! ouent therefrom to the hereditary states
Of the empire, than see a wal break out
on the east of Europe at a time when
the rest of the continent looks impa-
tiently to reap the fruits of the rapid
and continued progress of civilization
and knowledge. But it is not sufficient
that Austria should employ all the arts
of diplomacy to preserve peace between
the christian powers and the inveterate
enemies of christianity: she would also
prevent the circulation Of any intelli-
gence at variance with her political
views. 1t is for these reasons that The
Austrian Observer wishes to make us
believe that the Porte, wholly occupied
by the war with the Persiaus and the
s%uppresions Of the Greek insurrection,
does not think Of the Russians, and has
made no preparations for a war against
them; although eye witnesses attestthat
the shores of the Bosphorus are cover
ed with Asiatic troops, which increase
daily and whose ultimate destination
cannot be to act against the Persians,
nor yet against the Greeks, who are
quiet in Constantinople, and through
out the whole of Rumelia.
The limited views of the Austrian
Cabinet are not to be the laws of the
civilized world. We know that very
important dispatches from Constant.
nople, arrived at Vienna on the night OF
the l0fh Of April, by an extraordinary
courier, and that the Austrian Obser-
YER of the 18th of April, and even a la.
ter date, says nothing of the contents of
these dispatches, although they must
have been Of the first Importance, since
Immediately after the date of their ar
rival, the conferences were held daily
between Messrs. Metternich and Tatis-
chef. If the dispatches Of Mr.. Lutzow,
(the Austrian minister Of the Porte,) had
been favorable to the continuance OF peace
the Austrian Observer would not have tail
ed to Inform us of the present state OF me-
gociation at ConstantinopIe. All the pri'
vate letters agree in stating that from the
28th of February to the 22d of March no
new conference or interview had taken
place between the Refs Efendi and the.
Ministers of England and Austria. These
two diplomatists bad made all possible ell
fort. to engage the Porte 10 withdraw Its
last note and to change aud modify its con-
tents.
Ii is also a fact beyond dispute, that Mr..
LutZow and Lord Strane ford having ascer-
tanned that their efforts were useless, and
that all further steps would he unavaIllng,
bave resolved to suspend Professionally all
negotiations with the Ottoman Ministers
until they receive further dispatches from
their respective courts. In consequence
all diplomatic relations with the Porte du-
ring the first half of the month OF March.
have entirely ceased, and the negotiations
have remained on the same footing they
were on at the commencement OF that pc
Rod, It. i, true that the negotiations were
resumed on the arrival OF an Extraordinary
Courier from Vienna, who carried new in
| structions to the %lnternuncio to eDdeavor
10 conjunction with the English minister 10
renew the conferences with the Refs Et-
fendi or even With the Grand Vizier; but
| we are as yet ignorant OF the result of this
| attempt. We are assured, however, that
| at the date of the departure from Constan-
tinople of the Austrian Courier who arrI-
we'd at Vienna on the 10th, nothing de6ni-
tive had been decided on; consequently
these dispatches can furnish only grounds
for conjecture as to the probable result
The next courier alone can bring the Of.
fetal report Of the actual issue of the nego-
citation.
Another article from Vienna of a later
