The meeting of the Emperors came off as arranged at
Salzburg on Monday. Napoleon's reception by the Austrian Court was most cordial, by the people very dubious. The particulars of the interview have, of course, not transpired, but the persons who draw up bulletins have been directed to assure the world that the purposes of the Sovereigns are peaceful—they always are ; that the monarchs agree on the Eastern question—not nice news farCrete; that they intend to summon Europe to a conference to resettle things on the basis of the Treaty of Prague, and that Queen Victoria is to meet the Kaiser iu Paris in October. The meaning of all this is,—France will fight if Prussia passes the Main, and Austria will be delighted to help her should it prove convenient. There will, apparently, be no war this year, and between autumn and spring a good many things may happen.
