The armistice between Prussia and Austria expires feday, It will probably be renewed, but no informa- ton to that effect has yet been received. Un the 25th, a suspension of hostilities for eight Gays, wes concluded between the Italians and the Avetrians. The Times says the armistice of the 22d did not @eme one day tuo soon to save Austria from the final catastrophe. Yet oue dsy more and the Ttalians would found themselves in full posses- sion of the Southern Tyrol, and the Prussians mas. ters of the passes of the Danube would have threaten- ed Vienna and the East and West. The combatants are now resting in their respective positions, and there are well grounded hopes that truce may te prolonged withan armistice, and this again into « definite peace. “SEVEN DAYS LATER BY THE Atlantic Cable.
