and a. less important intelligence had been hyishy
forwarded none could fshOm the cause OF The sudden
cessation Of intercourse-uness Indeed, the Govern

the same dearth The circumstance was becoming ex-

meager kilograms which treasured the pubc-nos nom
the intelligence they contained but because from their
tenor was easy deduce the fact that no dstoances
had taken place or we're contemplated It remarkable
that since that day. although there has not been again
the utter dearth Of news which characterized the u
hours preceding It, the information which has been sent
has been OF most meager description and almost solely
confined 10 violent extracts from Bohemian newspapers
in which abuse Of Vienna Of Beus and Of ADdrassy was
fairly distributed.
shall spare you the scarcely euphonc Of the pa
pers which the following brief eXtracts were taken
record the extracts themselves proof the ndg
nation and anger with which the CEfnhs e filed. One
paper said that Hohenwart had proved himself
man Of honor in all the negotiations with the CEsch lead
ers but that Beust was the most morally unclean and
dishonest in Europe, and that the success OF
his intrigues prove the people with whom No u sur
rounded and those whom he has an ascendant 70

tia" This last sentence is alluslon 70 the recent
troubles in Croatia and on the military frontierroubes
which, 1t was suspected fomented by the CSecns
and which It appears they intend 70 excite again.
Another paper said "he only tie which now binds Bo-
hemia to the Empire Is public taxation" In another
article the editors reminded their readers tho road to
Vienna having been closed to then there were still two
roads open; that leading 10 Berlin and another
toward st. Petersburg. These mere specimens Of
very numerous articles written In the sense for
one telegram informs that all the Prague papers show
the bitterest anmOsy to the Germans, and also to the
Liberal party DeaA1sts lin Hungary. The events OF
the past week have had the effect Of diipating some
doubts which had been gradually rising among the sCon
sttutonalists a. TO whether Beust not playing
double game and while pretending to be their cham
pion whether he was not really working with HOhen-
war Want Of space fOrblds my mentioning many cir
cumstances which gave some color TO these suspicious
must content myself with stating that there were In
deed many incidents leading TO the possibility Of such
conclusion. These doubts did not md expression In
print but know personally than one editor was
only waiting for sufficient proof Of what had grown
into belief with them " publish statement OF their
opinion. OF this fact am personally cognizant. VIZ;
that at dinner given by the American Minister Count
Beust drew parallel between the federation OF States
IN America and similar scheme which might succeed
in Austria This is nearly year and half ago, and
Count Beust was certainly en II he expressed his real
belief fayoraby disposed to federatiye form Of gov
ernment n Austria 1t is possible he has changed bis
opinion or does not consider the moment opportune As
sad before many circumstances during the past month
tended 70 Beust TO be suspcousy looked upon by
the Germans. At least Of them were impressed
with the belief that he really assisting Hohenwar
secretly while retaining the confidence and, cOnse-
Quently the lesdershp Of the Liberal party OF course
that belief longer exists since the negotiations have
fallen to the ground chiefly through his opposition to the
scheme but the moral remains that II the Germans OF
Austria support Beus and guided by him, 1t Is
rather from belief In his political and intellectual su
perorty over other Austrian statesmen than through
confidence his political honesty and straightforward
