The day before Yesterday Austria forwarded cate.

| The Paris Moniteur of Friday says:
Austria has not given her adhesion to the proposi.
ton made by England and accepted by France, Rus.
STA and Prussia besides which, it appears that the
Cabinet OF Vienna have resolved upon addressing a
direct communication to the Cabinet Of Turin in order
to obtain the disarmament of Piedmont. In conse.
quence OF these facts, the Emperor has ordered the
concentration of several divisions Of the army on the
frontiers of Piedmont.
VIENNA, Friday, April 22-The following official
statement is published
Piedmont, which has for some years past endan.
gered ,Austria's rights, has been summoned most
urgently by Austria to dsarm. This demand is ex-
pressly to Piedmont. Austria adheres firmly TO the
proposal for general disarmament, although she can
not make that proposal subordinate TO the summons
she has addressed to Sardinia.
LONDON, April 49, lS59.-After the Cabinet meet
ing on Thursday, dispatch sent to the Austrian
Government, expressing the strong dsapproval of
the British Government of the peremptory course
adopted by Austria.
Austria has been received. He declines to recon
slider the responsibility incurred in commencing war
| in the heart of Europe. Count Buol declares that
ms master, having taken his course will pursue it to
| the end.
! The Times says that the Imperial manifesto
which is to accompany the declaration of war against
Sardinia is already prepared. Austria. mistress of
the position, is ready by the act of the state and
deed of war to initiate the sanguinary drama upon
which the curtain is about to rise. There is no doubt
| that general movement of the French forces has
taken place on the entire Piedmontese frontiers.

some specific and exclusive information relating to
the movements of the French army. 1t says that or
ders have been given for the embarkation at Touon
OF 3O0D0 troopsnot however to sail till further or

THE CoSGREss-The Paris lfo,;te,,, ~ +bo ,,t
contains the following:
England has made to the other four great powers
the following propositions
First: To cffectuate previous to the Congress- a |
general disarmament:
Second The disarmament to be regulated by A |
military or civil Commission, independently of Con
gress, and this Commission to be composed of six
Commission rs, one of whom shall be Sandman:
Third: AS soon as the Commission shall have
commenced operations, the Congress shall assemble,
and proceed to discuss the political question and
Fourth: That the Representatives of the Italian
States shall be invited Immediately after the assem-
bling of the Congress, to take their seats with the
Representatives Of the Great Powers absolutely as at
the Congress of Laybach in 1921"
France, Russia and Prussia have given their adj
heson to the foregoing propositions of England, but
Austria refuses to assent to them.
The French government, it is said consented to the
appointment of q Commission for carrying out the
disarmament, requiring only that it be composed Of
diplomatic individuals.
Prussia.
1t was stated that the mission to Berlin of the
Archduke Albrecht OF Austria had been most com.
pletey successful, he having signed military con.
venton with Prussia, by which the latter engages to
send to the Rhine an army Of Is 600 men, under the
personal command o. the Prince Regent. II the ne.
gotiatons for peace fail this force will be increased by
the contingent of Bavaria, G0,O0O strong and the sth
Federal army corps of 10000 while other contingents
will be held ready to march.
The newspapers in Prussia, it is said have been re-
quested not to publish anything connected with the
preparations for war or the movements of the troops
Berlin dispatch of the 2lst says the semi-o1icial
pruss!an Gazette publishes an article which states
that the assembling of the Congress is becoming more
and more doubtful and that the state of affairs having
assumed most serious aspect it induces the prussian
Government to think that it is proper time to make
proposals to tie Federal Diet for the purpose of tax
ing general measures for its own interest and safety
The Government has preceded these proposals by
ordering three corps damee seventy thousand strong
to be placed on war footing. These measures are
merely of a defensive character and without any
aggressive intention.
Austria. U..
The Austrian Southern Railway was retained for
the exclusive service of the Government and troops
and ammunition were being constantly conveyed
overit.
The danger of war was considered so imminent at
Frankfort that the Federal Diet, which had been
the Easter holidays.
1t was reported that the Austrans had entered the
Ddchies OF Tuscany, Parma and Modena.
The BLACK MAN IN MAssAcHUsETTs-The Bos.
ton Courier, in ecuring Carl Schulz the Wisconsin
German Republican, who went to Boston to set the
Yankee Republicans right on political questions,
thus enumerates the privileges of the negro in the
State of Massachusetts
Here the coored man votes; here colored children {
and white children 60 to the schools here the
races are allowed to intermarry and have seem
they do not fail to avail themselves of their privileges
And there nothing in the laws of the State to pre-
vent coored mans serving on the jury, if the SUI
coordinate functonaes on whom the duty of selecting
u,rymen is devolved chooses to put him there. The
black man here stands on perfect equality with the
white man, except that he can not serve in the mi
ia and for this the United States are responsible
and not the State
The Courier parades these facts with so much os
entaion that we are bound to believe it is proud of
them.
