bat tho Austrian version differs from IL materially Al.
miai Tegcthof in his telegram does not mention tho los
of ths Kaiser tia, Of the Elizabeth or Of the other four
steameh which, according to Italian correspondents were
sunk but he insists that not only the Re Italia and the
Palesro but Likewise the ginboat Varesc were scuox
while his man-ofwar merely disabled not sunk So
much is certain that Deprets, the energetic Minister u
the Navy went the 2ist to Ancona TO ascertain the
truth and that Admiral Persano is accused OF cowardos
Dy the Italian fleet. Admiral Albni, indeed remained N
tne waters OF LISA, but have not heard that ting
fortress has been occupied which looks rather sranssh
tne lali ans have have really reported victory.
as I'd 'e OASIS LOT the preminaes OF peace communk-
Gated to Italy they do seem acceptable here sncs
they DO not refer 70 the cession Of the italian Tyro an4
fix the frontier OF Italy at the Tagamento, which would
leave the Italian province OF Friu to the Austrians Ne
poleop however insists upon the acceptance of hs pro-
posa by Victor Emanuel since il has been aor.sd h n.
Prussia but Count Uscdom the Prussan Minister AZ Flor
ence told Rcaso that Prussia only accepted that propo.
ston with the condition that Italy will not object 70 such
frontier In fact it that the Prussians do yst
wish either the truce or peace but they desire TO throw
the responsibility Of the continuation OF the either
upon Austria Italy Their great point is really 70 ds
play the greatest moderation possible after so glorious
campagn but does not object to continuation OF the
war since she does not believe that Austria sufficiently
whipped at least not the Austrian military party which
continues Dragging, and feels not at all Inundated.
During the five days of the present truce In the NORTH
the Prussians have considerably reinforced their army
around Vienna in order to still ounumber tho Austfana
IN their ntrenched camp at Florsdorf. 49,
am sorry say that the Italian version OF the battle
of Lisa s not true the Austrans although they had
three ironclads less than the Italians having gained
victory and proved their superiority at sea- On the other
hand Gen Medic and Gen. Garibaldi defeated tho Aus-
TRANS Italian Tyrol According TO the last accounts
the one was Pergna close to Tento and the other AZ
Mezzoago aud Legos at the gates of Riya but truce hav-
ing been signed, to begin at o'clock on the morning OK
the 25th and to last eight days both generals were poo
by arrested in their successful march. -
We d6 nc. know With any Certainty the propositions OIL
peace only much being clear that Prussia insists uPoa
Austria exclusion from the German Federation but does
dot claim any cession OF territory from the Kaiser IL
U.sse Nassau Hanover and Bavaria which will have 70
give in their adhesion TO Austria, by loss OF territory.

Thus we may say that the is at an end, aud can
already give tho results with considerable certainty.
Prussia has assumed leading role in Europe BY securing
leadership Of Germany and the eventual absorption Of
all the small Principalities from the Baltic and German
Sea to Main perhaps to the Swiss frontiers and
Germany becomes great empire able TO withstand ehss
France or Russia Italy gets Yeneta certainly to the
Isonzo and probably the Trdentine country bat the
monarchical idea, the Piedmontese set, and Victor
Emanuels popularity, seriously endangered Austna
loses her Italian provinces, her German influence, the
prestige of her army but if she finds statesman with
great IDEAS reconstruct her upon the basis Of Easen
empire she might still remain powerful as ever. Ma.
poleon give up his annexation appetite Sardinia and
Iiguria certainly Italian, and the Rhine provinces
German but be might get Landau and Saarous, tho two
French foreses which from 1868 TO 1915 always belonged
10 France.
Hungary behaved wisely during the crisis She has noe
compromised herself and is now TO receive her consttu
tonal autonomy. Deak called TO Vienna and prom
ed by the Emperor all those rights and concessions which
Hungary desired TO have restored to her. change Of
ministry is imminent at Vienna.
