the committee appointed to consider the motion
for a prolongation of the powers of Theirs.

RELATIONS WITH AUSTRIA AND ITALY.
BERLIN, Aug. 28.-The Prussian Cross
Gazette confirms the report that the second
meeting of the German and Austrian emperors
has been arranged, and states that it will take
place, probably, on Sept I, at Salzburg. EN-
peror Francis Joseph will be accompanied by
Won Beust. A firm basis was laid at Gastein
for relations whereby Germany and Austria are
TO assume joint attitude. Italy has uncondi-
tionally agreed to the same policy, and commu-
nications have passed between the three govern
ments, looking to the establishment of com
plete understanding.
Austria.
PROPOSED ALLIANCE WITH GERMANY.
vienna, Aug. 2S.-The Morgen Post advoca-
ting an alliance between Austria and Germany,
says: Germany needs Austria as cOunterbal-
ance against France and Russia, chiefly so at
the present time, when the French government
Is about TO introduce plan to increase her army
to 2,OOO,0OO men. Germany is also interested
that the east should not fall under the control of
Russia.
The Tagblatt, another Vienna journal, says:
France meditates revenge, and the words adj
dressed by the car to the French minister, at st.
Petersburg, are intended as a response to the in
terview between the EmperOrs William and Fran
els Joseph at Isehl. The contemplated Austria
German alliance will be answered by an alliance
between France and Russia. Germany can only
resist the enemy by whom she is threatened in
front and rear by an alliance with Austria, and
Austria can only thwart the schemes of Russia
with the support of Germany.
The new Free Press, this city, confirms the re-
ports OF an entente cordidle between Austria
and Germany
