CONGRESS OF VERONA.
VIENNA, Sept 20.-Ihc harmony exis-
ting between the Emperor Alexander aud
our Emperor produces the happiest effect
on public opinion. Al the Foreign
Ministers are delighted at this mutual good
will.
During the Congress the Archduchess
Maria Louisa will reside at Schaenbrunn
! with her son.
VERONA, Sept g7.-Since the arrival of
some persons belonging to the Court of
the Viceroy, at Milan, the preparations for
the reception of the SovereIgns and their
Ministers have been carried on with in
creased activity. Our city never had such
an animated appearance. The troops
which are to increase the garrison during
the Congress will shortly arrive. Several
hetels and large houses are already hired
al very high prices for the last three months
of the year. We have Just learnt, that ex-
presses have been sent hy the Archduchess
Maria Louisa, Duchess of Parma, to the
Grand Duke OF Tuscany, aud the Duke
MOdcna, with an invitation to come TO Y e
roma at the same time as the Emperors OF
Austria and Russia. and the Kings OF Prus-
STA and Naples. The Archduke Regnier,
Ficcroy OF Lombardy and Venice. is ex
pected here in few days with the CHIEF
officers OF his Court.
FRANKFORT, Sept. eS.-The restoration
of the Order Of Malta is again spoken of as
likely to be proposed to the Congress at
Verona. 1t is thought the proposal will be
supported by the King of Naples and the
Plcnipoteniiary of the Pope and in order
to interest the great Powers in f,vour OF
the order, it is intended to offer the Grand
Nastership 10 an Austrian Archduke. IL
most difficult point would be To find a resi-
deacc for the Knights the island has been
long since IN the possession OF the English,
which the British Government is certainly
inclined not 10 part with, ON account Of its
importance in the Mediterranean.
