GERMANY
COLOGNE July l3.-The conclusion of peace
between France and Austria, of which we
have Just received the first notice from Paris
will undoubtedly become the signal of a gre.f
internal movement in Germany. the final is
sue of which it is impossible To foresee at the
present m 2ment. The point which first mer-
It's attention is the discomfort prevailing
throughout all the armies of the German
States. These armies, consisting in great part
of men only temporarily drawn from their
tlN OttlloHSs 10 make up full war
strength OF the regiments. are bnt Il-fitted for
an attitude OF expectancy; and if they are now
to discover that The burdens and efforts they
| have been subjected to- were all to no purpose
the disconten already but too visible among
| them Will increase TO Il fearful extent
Prussia, from the great feeling of unity
which is wont 10 pervade her people, as soon
| as the hour OF danger seriously approaches. is
| comparatively safer than the remainder of the
| German States; but for the internal tranuuili-
| ty of these latter the most anxious apprehen-
| sion is felt. In Munich, for instance, it was
but last week that the diseontented and highly
excited soldiery, without paying any regard to
| the rigors of the military code of discipline
proceeded to acts which fell very little short
! of open mutiny. A battalion. which had been
Guartered in the Munich Crystal Palace the
| town bengalready crammed with other troops.
| being under the Impression that it was to be
| led against the French, and growing impatient
| of the delay, formed itself into a political
| meeting.
| The men constructed platform Of tables.
| and one of the priyates delivered violent
| speech filled with abuse of the German soye-
| reigns. in which he proposed that all the men
| of the reserves should demand either 10 be led
/ against the enemy at once, to be dismissed
| to their homes. In vain the non commissioned
! officers who We're present attempted to per-
suade them to have patience and be submis-
| siye; their paciiylug addresses Were drowned
! in hooting and Kisses, and the tumult went on
! increasing, so that the officers who had hurried
| to the spot, being likewise unable to master

| for the General of Division, who happened to
| be one of the Royal Princes, Prince Luitpold.
| The Prince, by promising the troops thai
! they should march towards the frontier in a
| few days, succeeded in queling this ominors
| outbreak for the moment, and on the 9th inst.
| five days afterwards, this battalion with 9TH
ers actually left. But what the feelings of the
| soldiers will be when the authorities will now
| have to tell them that Lombardy has been
| lost and that their services are no longer
needed, remains to be seen. The present alter
cation and negotiation between the rank and
file and their officers, who in secret share their
/ discomfort, are certainly not reassurng for
! the future. And the menacing symptoms have
been by no means confined to this single in
| stance.
1t has of late been q general complaint
| among the commissioned and non-commis-
stoned officers of the Bavarian army in par +
| tieular. that they have found the private sol
diers more rude and untraetable, and more
! given TO form political opinions of his own,
| than they ever before knew him to be.
| The order from Berlin by which the further
| advance of all PrusSian forces OH their way 10
the French frontier is stopped, has already
| reached this city by telegraph. Consequently
| it seems that the Prussian Government does
not share the apprehensions which have al
ready manifested themselves among the public
here, that the Emperor of the French will
turn his arms against Prussia after having
| done with Austria.
| AUSTRIA
A Vienna letter of the 9TH, in the Breslau
| Gazette, says:
Some attention is now about to be paid to
| public opinion as change OF Ministry is i'm
mnent. The determining cause of this mea-
| sure was as follows Eleven councillors OF
State, with NJ. Salyotti 1T their head, delivered
a memorandum to the Archduke Renter, in
| which they represented the present situation
/ OF the country as very threatening, and in
sisted the dismissal of some unpopular
| functionaries. The Arehduke, who is about to
| start for Verona, invited M. Salyotti to ac-
| company him, ard point out his views to the
| Emperor. The changes above mentioned Will
| be the result of that conference.
| Another Vienna letter has the following:
| large levy of men which che Government
| has made during the last few months in Hun
gary, Bohemia MoraSia, Gallicia, and other
| agricultural countries, have caused n scarcity
| OF laborers, and it is not known how the har-
! vest can be got in i. promises to be- one OF
/ the richest known for years
/ A letter in the IndspendaRce, of Brussels,
gives The following account of the circum- :
| stances which preceded the armistice:
/ The Emperor of Austria having caused q
| demand To be made in the French camp if il
| were net possible to obtain the remains OF
Prince Windischgraetz, who was killed at Sol
ferino, the Emperor Napoleon caused them to
| be sought for-and they Were recogn lied part
/ ly by his uniform, and partly by some letters
| 10 his newly married Wife, which he had about
him. The corpse was placed in an artillery
| wagon, and conveyed, accompanied by an off
! Ger Of the Staff and an escort, 10 the Austrian
| headquarters. Tile officer expressed to the
Emperor the coincidence of the Emperor of the
| French, and his Austrian Majesty {who was
Just recovering from somewhat severe intlis-
/ position) begged, not without emotion, the ofi-
| eer to convey his thanks to the Emperor Ma
! poleon, and to express his sorrow 1T the death
| of so many brave men in the French army
This led TO some remarks ON the cruel necessi-
| ties of war, and from what was said the En-
/ peror Francis Joseph WAS able 10 perceive that
those necessities Were regretted as much by
| his opponent as by himself Tho Emperor
| Francis Joseph afterwards sent the son OF
| General Urban with a flag of truce to the
/ French eaIun. as is known. and the Emperor
