FROM THE LONDON TIMES OF NOVEMBER 8.
For space Of twenty -four days the city Of Vienna re-
manned IN the hands OF the insurgents. No supreme
hoy existed out that of the Diet and in the Diet few mem
ss appear 10 nave attempted TO act in awful crisis The
Town Council exercised considerable influence and ultimate
voted the capitalization but the largest amount Of actual
power was doubles that Of the military commanders General
nem, foish officer, who may be reckoned the condoi
OF the revolution Mesenhause the commandan Of the ma
ona guard and the armed students But nothing can be
more obscure at present than the whole history of this pro-
uactec struggle We neither know by whom nor by wha,
eah1 nor ior wha purpose 1t was so pernacousy carried
on IN the whole Of events the 9th Of October
no name OF eninence the Liberal side in Austrian politics
has ever been put forward by the insurgents No specific
demands Of practical kind preferred no definite
fayingcry was raised Yet by means or other the
extreme party aided by the Republicans from other parts Of
Germany by French and Sandman emissaes by Polish and
Hungarian malconent succeeded in inducing or compelling
very large number of the popuace of Vienna to make de-
fence against the Imperial troops which would have been he

baby that the revolutionary party who had reckoned on
more efecua support from Hungary, and had sent out their
agents to knde general instruction in the Provinces sue

divided between their dread terrible chastsement hang
ing over them for the murder Of Latour and the expulsion Of
the imperial family, and the less formidable evils of revo

It Is probable not one in ten knew for what he was
fighting.
Although the battle sharply fought during the whole Of
the 2sh and cannonade which described as incessant
was directed against the bancade the loss Of life and the
destruction OF property will probably be far less than first
and IN particular less than that sustained by the
people OF Paris during the days june when the actual
ct was three or four times long Some avages by FIRE
are to be depoed in the suburbs and according 10 one
count even in the Burg and the imperial library which are
situated within the glacs
Baron Won Wessemberg sent the following cir
cular to all the Austrian Ambassadors at the Ger
man Courts:
The late events at Vienna have in Germany been part
y viewed ina wrong light, IN Utars rJrm correct
judgment the subject attention ough. be directed the
following points
"The military operations which, at the present moment
take place under the walls Of Vienna have but one object
namely the suppression Of anarchy and the eesabshment
of legal order 1t has entered the thoughts Of the EN-
peror his Government TO retrac the guaranteed liberties

by the anachcal party, much less conquer Of the
Austrian natonaties supremacy the rest There is
strife OF naonalies change Of the monarchy into Sca
woman Austria, the German press believes preends
believe but combat Of order against anarchy Of legal author
ity without which Government exist against

nominate il confusion Of ideas, msconcepon Of facts II
another meaning be given to this combat.
"The revolution has put q German Dress The Ger |
coors have become the coos Of the anachcal party
The liberty the greatness and the welfare Of Germany the
protection Of which the Emperor Of Austria considers his spe

Of his Msjesys Government and army solely direct
ed against that faction which those coors and objects

His majesty the Emperor and bis Government are firmly
resolved carry the combat with all the means at their
disposal These have been accurately designated
by the manesoes Of the 9th and 10Th ultmo. The military
have already been carried into execution. An army
OF nearly $4,000 men, commanded by Prince Wndschgraz
who has taken his headquarters He'zendo is bockadng
the capital and have to entertain the hope that the
more immediate object Of those operations will be shortly
attained.
