A Vienna sem-oficial dispatch states
that Prussia does not adhere to the triple
treaty, but that she will renew negotiations,
on her own account, with France and Eng
land. In confirmation thereof, Baron Won
Ausedom has already arrived in London,
charged with special mission from Prus-
Ea.
AUSTRIA AND RussiA "A letter from
Jasy, Of the 9th, published in the "Augs-
burg Gazette" says that great activity has
been perceptible among the Austrian
troops Of occupation, some regiments hay
ing advanced to the fortified points Of the
Sereth, and extended their advanced posts
even as far as the Pruth.
The following important statement is ta-
ken from q speech Of Lord John Russell on
Friday night:
my belief is that although not con-
tanned In the literal term of the treaty,
Austria will find that, as we do not pro-
pose to diminish the territory Of Russia,
% we propose 10 leave her a great and
powerful State, and 10 demand only securi-
ties, which are as necessary for Austria as
they are for France and England, unless
Russia shall consent to such fair and mod
crate. terms, as it will be our duty to pro-
pose whenever Minister Of the Emperor
shall declare he is directed to enter into
negoiistion--if, l say, their terms are not
accepted by the Emperor Of Russia, an
tcipate that we shall have, before the
opening Of the next campaign, the alliance
Of Austria with US on the offensive and de-
fsnsive."
SEBAsroPoL-DlARY OF TIE SIEeE-The
war correspondent of the London Times,
under date Of Nov. 23, says;
Although it may be dangerous to CON-
municate facts likely to be OF service 10 the
Russians, II is certainly hazardous to con-
ceal the truth from the English people
They must know, sooner or later, that the
siege has been many days practically sus
peaded, that our batteries are used up and
silent, and that our army Is exhausted by
the effect Of the excessive labor and watch
ing to which it has been so necessarily ex
posed. The Russians know this vel
enough. The relaxation Of our FIRE is self
evident; bat our army, though weakened
BY sickness, is still equal to holding its po
dtion, and to inflict ehastisement on assail
ants who may venture to attack Nothing
would 90 animate our men, destitute of al
Stimulating influences beyond those Of un
daunted spirits and the prospect of meet
ing the Russians outside their entrench
meats, aud deciding the campaign by th'
point Of the bayonet.
''On last night there was brisk affai
between the Chasseur de Vincennes ant
the Russian Rihemen in front of the Flag
staff Battery earth-work, and the Russian
dispelled all absurd myths about their be
ing in want Of powder and ball, by mos
tremendous cannonade. Assaults ant
counter assaults continued, amid furiou
