A reconciliation has, apparently, been effected between Prince METTERNICH and

Count KOLOWRAT ; but the truce is looked upon as hollow. The Count has supported the privileges of the Hun- garians and Bohemians, and has thus acquired much influence among them. His policy has a tendency to Liberalism; but METTERNICH contrives to keep him in check by alarming the Emperor with rumours of Liberal plots and anticipations of insur- rection in his Italian dominions.
