AUSTRIA.

BARON BEUsT's SPEECH on THE ARMY BILL.
A Vienna letter, in the North Eastern Cor
respondenoe gives version Of Baron Buesls speech
on the Austrian Army bill The correspondent says that
this speech like all those delivered by Baron Beust
questions OF foreign politics. very cautiously worded,
but that IL produced strong impression Of alarm
the commission that the motion 81 Herr Rechbauer
posing 90 fix the effective strength OF the army nj 100000
Instead Of 10000 men, rejected by large
majority Baron Beust began by reviewing the policy of
the previous year Austria had several times been In
such danger that lshe might have been exposed at any
moment armed conflict owing, among other causes,
10 the treaties concluded by Prussia with the South Ger
States. The Vienna Cabinet strOye In the midst OF
these difficulties 10 preserve ts liberty OF action aud
sdeed that It's interests did not demand that should
any OF the uncertain alliances which had been offered 10
her. even the part OF Prussia. Baron Bcust added
rule action future; at the time though taking
every care 10 have her hands free IN matters or
foreign politics, Austria had been obliged To defend her
self against all pressure from Without and against every
tendency 10 interfere ia her internal affairs especially
from the side OF Russia. The Baron then alluded 10 tho
cordial relations which prevail between Austria and
England but lie must regret that Great britain and tho
statesmen who direct her policy have no longer a
definite and clearly marked line Of conduct as had been
the other times and with other Cabinets the con-
spoken In London In favor Of 40 longer have tho
same weight they would have had formerly" As for
Prussia the vienna Cabinet has as yet hd 10 piacuch
proofs ~ the fendness she processes toward Austria
With Russia It's relations not unfrlendly but certain
GOODNESS s prevails between the Courts OF Vienna and
st. Petersburg. In conclusion the Baron limited that
though officially the relations Of the Vienna Cabinet with
the other Powers be satisfactory there Is eth much
dstrust between them, aud that some Of them show
very cqulyOcal disposition toward Austria The peace
OF Europe not at this moment threatened but the sna
ton requires Austria 10 be prepared Tor pccted
conflict, else Ia general disarmament should lie
proposed 10 support II with all tue weight OF an imposing
military force
