The Elector of Hesse Cassel has acce ded to all the demands of the people. Insurrction in Vinna.-L-ndon. March 21.-The iatelligence received this morn ing from Vietina. says our correspondent is of the most serious nature. The accounts are but meagre as to details, but the result proves that a complete revolution has been effected in the Austrian capital. A conflict in the 13th between the people, left by the students and citizens. and the military, has compelled Prince Mletternich to fly. There has been bloodshed on both sides, but the number of killed and wounded is not sta ted. The-Director of Police. M. SeOldnis kv, has been expelled. The house of Prince Metternich was sacked by the mob, and the Grand Dukes have wit hdiawn into private life. The military have left the city, which is under the protection of the Civic Guard and 'the Students. The moviement now in progress in the different 'States of the German Confedera tion cannot but embolden the revolutionary party in France. But as every hour brings antilligence of some new adhesion, some additional fragment of the old system car ried away by the great debacle of principles and policies that htis swept down empires in its flood, it renders more inexplicable am! less justifiable ils all but universal arming of the people here. The military force of - France is increasing every day, ihe regular army has not boeu diminishel the National Guard in and around Paris number 200,000 nen. the garde mubile with tiie ne* ear .lments made since the revolution cannot 'amount to less than 40,000. The Zeitungsballe of the 17th inst., contains the following, dated Vieuun, the 13th : "Our capitol is in open rev:olt. All the inhabitants have risen in a mass. and the studentis'jdined the Urban Guard. The crowd marhed o the villc of Prince Met terieb sifuate on the Repoweg, and des tryd ii.

C~he Aulie Cottneil of WVar had adopted all. necessary measures. The gates had, been shut, in order to sepe rate Lfre cityfiom the-suburbs, and Bounse remnaiaad closed. It is not doubted but that the demndsh of the people will be taken into considecra tion, and-that the.Austri-ns will enjoy the same privileges as the-Germans. At halif past-one o'clock, it 'was announced that the Emrperor had decreed the formaition of a National Guanul, to be commanded by Count Mayero. -All rhe Princes of the Royal Fa.-nily who have rendered themn selves unpopular, have retired int') pri vate li-fe. Universal joy prevailed, anad the city was illumuinated. The patrols of the Civic Guard were every twoere received with loud cheers by the people A Frentch Revolution meetitng to the number of i5000J person~s was held at Shef field and the proen.-edings breathed the sleepest spirtt of Republicanism. All diplomatic relations between France and Austria have been suspended, without however a declaration of war between the governments. . The Qtnenn of Spain has recogntized the new Government of France, with expres lons of sympathy for the Republic. A great tueeting of R-pealers atnd Char tists hadl been held at Manchester, and 'he, greatest excitement prevailed. The Lo'ndoln correspont of the New York Cou-ier fr Enquirer says :-"This revolution will dismnemnber A ust riau,- and put an end to all the abmolute Gover-nm,-nts in Europe. except that of Russia. Hun gary will now rise in her utrength antd throw off the iron yoke. Lombardy now subjected to the nmost wanton and cruel tyranny. wv-ill lie made free--and [England wvill be driven to relieve her subjects from their oppressive load of taixatiotn. -The spirit of .1776' ts doing its wourk most ra pidly and effectually.".
