We have alluded to Austria, and the relation which she
has to these movements is naturally watched with interest. Certain re- cent appearances are not promising. She has marched a large body of troops to the Turkish frontier. M. de Bruck, her representative at Constantinople, appears to have distinguished himself by raising old claims and quarrels of a small and vexations kind; and an an- lucky occurrence at Smyrna has threatened to complicate affairs. An Ptungarian refugee, who had been permitted to leave. Turkey for America under promise of not returning to the Turkish donu- nious, had been detected in Smyrna: he was seized by an Aus- trian sea captain, a riot ensued, and two Austrian .moishipmen were killed. The Turkish Government has made satisfaction for the occurrence, in which the Austrian officers appear to have been by no means blameless. Austria, in fact, has been treated with great consideration ; and it appears not impossible, from the like,: of her joining in the recent negotiations, that better infArmatmn respecting her intentions will supersede th.eas ugqiya,E1 report.. from the remoter parts.
