This letter was the cause of the change just made In the policy of that prince. Count Bismarck's representations accord ingly, to the Austrian Minister here, ol this proceeding, and of bis position to ward Hungary, had the effect of causing the latter to express his satistiactlon with the peaceful intentions of this Govern ment. Count Bismarck said the alliance with Bussia was one looking to a continu ance of peace and bad no reference to a state of war. As to the Southern German States he said it was his intention to leave to them entirely the question of their ad mission to the Confederation ; that it would not be long beiore iney wouiu come Knock ing at the door. : Until then he hoped Ger many would be closer and closer drawn together by common legislation, and through the customs ot Parliament.
