      . The Treaty Of Peace. Tub Following Is ...

      . THE TREATY OF PEACE . Tub following is an analysis of the Treaty of Peace Concluded between France and Austria as signed by the Plenipotentiaries at Zurich , but which has not yet received the ratification of the two Governments . ¦ The treaty commences with the usual preamble : — " Desirousof putting an end to the calamities of war , and forming into a definite treaty the preliminaries made at Villafranca , the two Emperors have named their Plenipotentiaries and communicated to them full powers , and the said Plenipotentiaries have agreed to the following : — " That peace is concluded . & c .

      NAPOLEON AND THE ITALIAN DEPUTIES . On Sunday the Emperor received the deputations from Parma and Tuscany at St . Cloud . The interview was short , but in the highest degree satisfactory to the Deputies of Parma . The Tuscans remained in conference for more than an hour and a half . The deputies say that the Emperor remains faithful to himself and persevering as protector of the Italian cause ; and they have the assurance that the principle upon which the whole question hangs , namely , that of nonintervention by arms , will receive no injury from any quarter whatsoever . At two o ' clock General Dabprmida ( Sardinian Minister ) was received by the Emperor , and the consultation lasted for a long time . On Wednesday , however , Napoleon refused to grant an audience to the deputation from Bologna .

      " France returns to Austria the Austrian steamers seized during the war , but on which judgment has not been passed , & c . " Austria gives up Lombardy , with the exception of Mantua , Peschiera , and as far as the frontier line fixed by a special commission , the limit of . which is already known . ¦ ' The Emperor of the French declares that the transfers these portions of JJombardy to the King of Sardinia .

      " Then follow the articles concerning the j unsdiction—namely , the option of the employes of Piedmont and Austria to remain in the service of the two Governments , and to have the option of . transferring within a year their goods to Piedmont , and vice versa ; they would , however , retain their right t any property left behind them when they move their domicile from Austria to Sardinia , or from Sardinia to Austria . . ¦¦> - ¦¦

      - " . 'The-pensions-acquired by pers on ^ in Lombardy will be respected and paid by the new Government which will be established to those entitled to them , and in those cases ' where it is so so stipulated to the widows and children of those pensioned . " Then follows the settlement of the debt , which s . the subject of two articles , one of which is an additional agreement for the mode of payment . According to these articles Piedmont is to pay to Austria 40 , 000 , 000 fl . ( Conventions-ATunze ") , and besides is rendered responsible for three-fifths of the debt of the Munte-Lombardo-Venetien . Altogether the debt transferred to Sardinia amounts to 25 , 000 , 000 f . " Then follows Article 18 , which runs thus : — .

      " Desiring that the tranquillity of the Church and the power of theHoly Father should be insured , and being convinced that this end could hot be obtained in a mpre effective manner than by a system suited to the wants of the populations , and by reforms the necessity of wliich has been already recognised by the Sovereign Pontiff , the two contracting parties will unite their efforts in order that a reform in the administration of the States of the Church should be carried out by His Holiness .

      " Article 19 . The territorial limits of the independent States of Italy which did not take part in the last war could be changed only with the . assent of the other Powers of Europe which took part in forming and guaranteed the existence of these States . The rights of the Grand Duke of Tuscany , the Duke of Modena , and the Duke of Parma are expressly reserved by the high contracting Powers , "Article 20 . The two Emperors wil } assist with all their power in the formation , of a Confederation of all the States of Italy , the object of which will be the preservation of the independence and integrity of Ituly , which will insure the development of their moral imrl material interests , and will watch over

      the defence of the interior and exterior of Italy by means of a Federal army . ? ' Venetia , which will remain under the rule of the Emperor of Austria , will form a part of this Confederation , and will participate in the rights and in the obligations of the Federal Treaty , the clauses of which will bo established by the representatives ot allJjhe ( States of Italy . " Article 21 stipulates that persons having taken part in , the lute events will not be Attacked either in their person or their property , and can remain unmolested fa the two countries .

      " REVOLUTIONARY SYMPTOMS IN HUNGARY . A Vienna letter contains the following : — "A short time since , the petitions and addresses of the Hungarian Protestants would either have been pigeonhofcd or entirely shelved , but during the last few weeks the Government has had occasion to remark that the Hungarians intend to make themselves heard . I know not what impression was produced on Baron Hiibner ' s mind by his visit to Hungary but it could hardly have been an agreeable one as he ras plainly told that the Austrian Government would soon lose another kingdom if it continued to govern it as it had been doing for tlie last fe \ r years . One person , who spoke with even greater freedom than his fellows , declared that nothing but a representative form of government would satisfy the Hungarians . It is exceedingly difficult to obtain accurate intelligence from the eastern provinces of Austria , but during the last few days facts of importance have come to my knowledge . Some little time ago preparations were made ' for a general rising in Hungary , and theTe is reason to believe that there would have been a repetition of the scenes of 1848 if peace had not been concluded at Villafranca . " The very boys in the streets , " said ray informant , " knew there was something unusual going on , but the secret was so well kept that Government has never been , able to get on the traces of the conspirators . " About a fortnight ago a daughter of the late Count Louis Batthyahy was married , in Hungar y * to one of her cousins , and among the persons invited to ¦ the nuptial festival was" a young diplomatist who is attached to the Russian Legation in this city . The rising Nesselrode expressed his political opinions with much greater freedom than is customary with diplomatists , and some of tlie most forcible expressions were made known to this Government .
