The interview at Tetschen between the Emperor
OF Austria, the King of Prussia and the King of
Saxony, who Joined the Kin of Prussia with Prince
John of Saxony at the railway station at Dresden,
is still the great topic Of the day with the confer
ence OF the minor States at Bamberg. The first re-
suit appears to be the conviction that the good un-

can assure you on undonbted authority, that Eng
land and France will not consent to a treaty for
peace on the basis of the statu quo ante The minor
States of Bamberg have agreed to join in the Aus
troPrussian treaty, but it seems they annex con-
dition-that simultaneously with the withdrawal Of
the Russian troops the allied squadrons shall leave
the Baltic aud Black seas and the allied forces be
tions will never be accepted.
One word respecting this Austro- Prussian treaty.
It nominally contracted to guarantee the safety
Of Germany, but it is open to much wider inter.
probation. II provides that any attack upon the
German or non-German provinces Of either State
shall be regarded as an attack upon the common
territory of both States. IN other ords, the t,ray IS
directed against Poland, Hungary ard Lombardy.

the German States do not form part, is 100000
strsng. 1t is therefore small object for Austria
to obtain the adhesion of the confederation to this
treaty.
Should she ultimately find pretext for throwing
of the double faced mask she now wears, and join
Russis, if not openly, at all events by refusing
to act against her, and thus with Prussia
becoming shield, which might lead to a
rupture with France and England, it is
clear that one Of the inevitable results would be
rising in Lombardy, Hungary and Poland. Now.
if she can persuade all Germany to join her, the
coalition would be powerful one against the
Western Powers. Russia, Austria, Prussia, and
the rest of Germany, against England, France.

herself. However willing, she cannot pay the debt
of vilagos which sealed the fate of poor Hungary.
If Austria does join Russia, she would lose in few
weeks all her Italian provinces. camp is being

from Lombardy. I have often watched the sentries
as they paced to and fro either side Of the long
bridge of boats-one in the Austrian the other in
the Piedmontese dress. The year 1S4S, and the
campaign Of Charles Albert, is not forgotten. The
Italiars there lost chance, and learned lesson.
Backed by an allied Anglo-French army, the Aus.

Tyrol.
Austria is preparing for eventualities. A letter
dated June 10, now on my table, from Turin,
says

for increasng their army there is doubt that the
Ausriaps are desirous having az many hostages
possible, especially from among the upper classes for
the good behavior of the Lombardo Veneto.
1t is fact worth notice thata very strongly entrenched
camp is being made at Goito where you may recoi
1ect the Ausrians received check from the
Pedontese under the late General Bava in the last
campaign.
The state of feeling Of the non-German provinces
of Austria is, think, the surest guarantee that
she will not join the Russian autocrat. But the
axiom here still holds good-"Those who are not for
Us are against u.s."
There is no news from the seat Of war, either in
the north or the south. The reported death of
Muasa Pacha. the gallant defender Of Shstria, by
cannon ball. is contradcted in the Patrie. All the
English troops have row left Constantinople. Res
child Pacha has retired from Office, ground of i'll

Pacha is appointed Grand vizier in the stead Of
Nustapha Pacba.
Silistria still holds out, and the Russians are fall
ing back upon Jassy. The Geographic dispatches
which subjoin contain the late st items of intel
gence. Twelve hundred English troops have landed
at Athens.
The King of Prussia has again left Berlin; he has
gone on tour to East Prussia. 1t is said, but off,
cialy contradicted by the Prussian papers, that the
object Of this trip was to meet the Emperor Of
Russia.
