The Federal Diet having, on the l4th, by
vote of nine to six, agreed to the Aus
TRAN proposals for mobilizing the Federal
army, Prussia, agreeably to previous no.
tice. carried out her threat to consider it
as an act of hostility on the part of those
States which supported it. and on the fol-
lowing day commenced 'cdr by sending
troops into Saxony and Hanover. II is
also rumored that Austrian troops entered
Saxony. This report Is not confirmed, but
II is believed that Bcncdek would imme-
diatcly move to attack the Prussians.

The action of the American Government
towards the Fcnians in the United States
gives general satisfaction in England. The
London Times of the 10th eulogizes the
Washington Government, and says it
would be impossible to exaggerate the
good faith, the friendship, the sincerity,
and the regard for mutual obligations,
which have prompted these energetic and
decisive measures. The American Go
vcrnment has acted in a manner which
even exceeds anything that could reason
ably have been expected from the most
friendly nation. The article expresses
qualification that such distinguished officers
as Generals Grant and Meade should have
been sent to the scene, and says that these
energetic acts of genuine friendship will
be long and cordially remembered. The
Fcnans are almost entitled to thanks for
having given the Americans an occasion
for displaying their friendship and good
feeling.
