Edilors--Will you please give place in ynur columnsto thiefollowing account of the exer. eles at the examination of the Fou•t District Girls' High School, of which MadamePagaud Is Principal? The examInation commenced with the Second Comtse is Algebr, consisting of ten pupils, under the charge of Miss Burr. The scholars all answered well, and the only fault to be found was the very low and tdlstinet utterance of the answers to the quesn ttioaspropounded. Miss Bury, however, gut her qoes- tiols hi a clear and distinct tone. The next on the programme was an article read tfrom the "Magnolia Leaf," by the edltress, Miss Bee. ite PattLseo, which would have done credit to an older head. Following this was the composition of MiSr Lesette Walkeron the "Mbosquito," which elic- ited somebeautifol and original ideas, but both were read in too low a tone to be fully appreciated. The First Course, under the charge of MiraAnnie Cornelin, was next examined. This Course did so well in the analysis of words and sentences that it Would be impossible to particularize, which is quite complimentary to the competency of the pleasant lady who governs this class. This class consists of thirty-three or four echolars. Next in order came another examination of the Second Course, under Miss Barr, on the "Elements of Natural Science." In this class all seemed equally well prepared, and gave very general satisfaction. Miss Battle Wood read an original composition on "Sunshione," which caused a gleam of that article to brighten the countenances of the audience. CLm- positiongood, and well redd. Miss Mary Hillard next read an original composni- tion on the "sEconomy of Time," which sounded to us very solid, conilgt from one no youl.g. It was read In slow and meoueured tones, and reflected credit upon the fair young authoress. A song here varied the pleasures of the exercises -" How Sweet are the .oses,"--which was sung very prettily. The third course, under Mrs. Plagaud, on Rhetoric, consisting of thirteen scholars, was examined next. The great fault here again was the low utterance, with the exception of SMiss Ellen Criswell, who spoke in distinct tones. The third course in French, under the charge of Madame Baerns, acquitted themselves very credibly, aed the very competent teacher de- serves great credit for her efforts in advancing this class. There are thirteen pupils in this course; some of them answered too low. in this class Miss Amanda Smith and Emma Rtoser appeared to excel. Fourth course in French cnonciated much better than the third. In this class the MissesMary Kop. man, MaryPettiss and Hattie Leopold showed that they had made good use of the advantage of having such a perfect teacher as Madame Bereos. bliss Fannie Jackson's recitation was well delivered ; Miss Besle Pattison's original composition on " Woman's Mission," and MissEmma Robertson's on " Summer Thoughts," were very satisfactory to the audience. After this the audience were regaled with an abund. ance of varied refreshments. Alter the refreshments, were enjoyed the exer- cises of the Fourth Course, under charge of the Prin- cipal, on.Astrnomy. This Course was very well ad- vanced, and the Principal ought to feel quite proud of the satisfactory renponses made by them. Miss loary Kopman and Miss Isabella Smith read each an original composition, which gave promise of something above sedincrity in the futulre. The Examination concluded with exercises in Ge ometry and Intellectual Philosophy, by the Fourth Course. In these, the young ladies proved that they bad not been idle in acquiring knowledge in these branches. Lest, and not by any means least, was tile Farewell Address of Miss Mary Pettus. It would be poor praise to say it was beautiful, for tihe tears that danced In the eyes of the audience was the best proof of the appreciation In which it was held. The modest, gentle and unpretending little lady, read it with much feeling, for her words were almost choked by tihe intensity of her feelings. All in all, the Garden District I as cnause tobe proud of its tCach- ers, and the pupils of its citizens. A FR'eEND OF PUBLIC sntItOOLS. WASHINGTON MEDALS ANDTH MEOUNT VERNON AssocIATtoN.-Mr. Snowden, Director of the Mint at Phil idelphia, writes to Miss Cunningham,the Regent or the Ladies' Blount Vernon Association, a letter, from which the following is an extract: It is my intention, in addition to the establishment of a Cabinet of Washington medals at the mint, to procure as many duplicates as I can of these interest- sag memorials of the Father of his Country, and pre. seat them to tie Association over whilch you preside. The home and grave of our beloved Washington would be an appropriate place for such a Cabinet. Miss Cunnioghsm replies as follows: In rescuing Mount Vernon from the neglect in which it has too long rested, it is our design to gather there, if possible, everything connected with the past of our country, which is inseplarably associated with the name of Washington, or that could, in any res. pect, exhibit that veneration for his memory becom.

Your kind and patriotic proposal will materially assist us in accomplishing this purpose, and should the proposed gift be consummuated, the consciotsness of having added so attractive a feature to that spot., around which the affectionate interest of the nation clusters, will no doubt be ample reward for the labor it will cost, apart from the thanks of the Association, which you will thus have fully won. GEo. SteIELDS AND HIS FIEIGHIT.-An exchange paper tells the following story on Gen. Shields : A short time since General Shields, lauding at Hastincs, on the Mississippi,compared his freight and bill of lading, one item calling for seven barrels. Strange to say, however, the General could only find on the landing six of his barrels ! He was heard counting them over several times with the same on. satisfactory result each time. Moving the index finger of his right hand tp and down in a pointed manner at eaclh barrel, thus he solilnoqized alod, with deliberate military emphsaia : "O ne-tw-- three--four--five- sia."

MBelsl to the New Orlenns Oreeeont.] MINATrTLAN, June 4, 1859. Eds. Crescent: The steamship Coatzacoalcoe not having arrived here op to this date, I write you by steamer Jasper, dispatched to New Orleans by the agent of the Tehoantepee Company with the Cali- fornia mails and passengers. This little community, as a matter of course, feels considerable anxiety on the subject of the steamer; but we can come to no other conclusion than that she has met with some ac- cident at sea which has disabled her, for there has been no commotion at sea suficient to endanger her safety.' The absence of the letters and papers is very greatly felt. Mr. McLane has written to Mr. Allen, U. 8. Consul here, that Cohos is on the march to the Isthmus of Tehoantepec with 2000 men, and that he (the Minis- ter) has ordered, or will order, the Fulton or Water Witch to this port just so soon as either of the vessels reach the gulf. She will be inatructed to yield every protection to American interests on this Isthmus. Mr. McLane is stopping for a while at San Andreas de Tuxtla, where he hopes to ftnd a healthy and pleasant residencedaring the sickly season, when his public business will allow him to be absent from Vera Cruz. The Buchilcame down the river yesterday with the California mails and passengers on board, together with a few f the Mexican dignitaries. Gen. Degollado was among the latter number, and if he had not been pointed out to me, I should certainly never have known him. He does not look like a great man, and I scarcely think he is; but as it is not popular to judge men by their personal appearance,I shall not express mine of Gen. Degollado, particularly since I have taken pains to give you my opinion of his pub- lie actions. He has resigned his position as Com- mander-in-Chief of the Army, and Is now on his way t> Vera Cruzto take his seat in the Cabinet of Presi- dent Juarez as Secretary of War. His successor, as Commander-in-Chief, is General Zuaua, a man from the Northern States of the Republic, and one as- counted to be somewhat more energetic than Degol- lado, though about as much of a military man. Zua- zuoa is a farmer, and therefore liable to commit many faults, but his second in command, Gen. Ztragossa, it is thought, will assist the principal commander out of any very embarrassiag difficulty. You must excuse me. but it is impossible to write about Mexican mill- tary or political affairs, in a sober strain, for they make such a farce of them that I cannot put on a tragedy face. Degollado comes from Acapulco, but brings no later news than what I wrote you in my other letter. By private parties, passengers across at the same time, I understand that it is already becoming dan- gerous for Americans to go across the Transit route except in large parties, for the Church party is ac- quiring such ascendency on the Pacific side, and is so hostile to Americans, that one man is not safe if he is caught away from the city of Tehunntepec, or from the companionship of his countrymen. I be- lieve the rumor to be true, and that it will not be long before he same conlition of alffirs will exist at thin place, when we shall have to stay in town if we desire to keep whole hides. Matters are approaching a criis here which must result in bloodshed, and it will be done on private account if the Government does not protect us. The Water Witch may be enabled to preserve the peace here, but the foul outrage on this side of the Isthmus will be resented by all the Amer- icons settled on the line of transit from Suchil to Mlinatitlan. I hear a rumor prevalent that the Governors of certain States are just now on the fence whether to revolt from Juarez and declare themselves neutral, or whether still to adhere to the Liberal party. The effect of a consummation of these rumors would be to deprive the Liberal party of a considerable rev- enue for the aforesaid Governors propose to seize upon the Custom-louse revenues and the national funds, and to hold them until some solution of the difficulty is had. I hope the rumor may prove un- true, but there is no relying upon Mexicans, high or low,and therefore it is no safe bond to engage for the fidelity of any of them. The rainy season has set in, in good earnest, and the steamer Suchil now ascends almost to the town of Suchil almost every trip, which will shorten the passage at least two days, and perhaps four, going to Ventosa. She will be a decided improvement for the California passengers. The new steamer Allegheny Belle, brought over by the Coatzacoalcos on the last trip, has been nation- alized in this country, and is now called the Mins titllan. She made a very fiworable impression on her trial trip, but unfortunately she broke her shaft, and is now useless until a new one is brought down from New'Orleans. There are many parties at present "lying about loose" in this section who are anxious and waiting for an opportunity toexplore the head waters of several rivers that have their rise in the mountains that intersect this isthmus. It is almost certain that large deposits will ultimately be found somewhere adjacent to the sources of the Uspenapa or Aloma- loyo rivers, for the Indians display comparatively large quantities of crude gold occasionally when they require any personal ornament. There are no jew- elers in this place, but as you proceed into the in- terior they become quite common, and heavy gold combs, ear-rings and necklaces are articles of com- mon wear with thelowest classes. It is no unfre- quent sight to meet a woman bare-footed and half. dressed with a thirty dollar comb in her head, or a valuable pair of bracelets on her arms. This jew- elry, they say, all comes from the interior, and the gold for its manufacture is furnished by the Indians, who will not reveal from whence they derive it. Quite recently a Mexican came to this place to trade, who made his payments in virgin ore, just as he would have doneten years ago It California. He passed unnoticed the first time, but subsequently he again canme to town, and this time with larger quantities and in heavier qualities, someofhis pieces weighing an ounce and many weighing more than a quarter of an ounce. This led to a suspicion that he knew where there were valuable mines, and many inquiries were made of him, butall to no effect, for he denied all knowledge of the source of suchtreas. ures. As a last resort, I believe the people at Acay- ucam, about thirty miles from here, took it into their heads to try the inquisition upon him, and for that purpose he was arrested, put in jail, and the torture applied, but for all knowledge of the troth I helieve his judges are still in the dark. He persist- ently refused to make any revelation. The Mexicans say that he would forfeit his life to the Indians if he told where the mines where. In this connection, it is somewhat singular that these Leautifol rivers have not beenexplored, and that we are still in datkness as to where they oliginate or what course they run. Here is a field for adventure for some roving party that would be worth the trouble to go over, and of twice the value, commercially speakting, of all Arc- tic explorations. An engineer, connected with the Jeckel surveying party, informs me that in running his lines across the mountains between this place and Tehuantepec, he came across Indians who had never seen a white man in their lives, who spoke no lrnguage known to his party, and were absolute "freeblovers," living 11 together, and twenty or thirty men and women sleeping in one bed, and ac knowledging a community of wives and properties. In another place he passed through a village where the Indians had light hair, fair complexion and blue eyes; and yet another town where all the inhabitants were lepers, covered with the white spots ofl that de- testable plague. Such are a few of the human won. ders to be scared up in this section, andwe only need a few trappers fromamong the Rocky Mlountains to davelope as great natural curiosities. A Mexican named a andoval committed suicide in this place on the night of the 27th, by hanging him- self. He was in debt, and it is supposed this drove him to commit the desperate act. A meeting has been held here, and a contract is advertised on the door posts for lighting the streets of Mlinatitlan at night, I have but little faith in the project. Some little anxiety is felt here to know what our Goveronment will do if Cobos,one of Miramon's Gen- erals, should succeed in reaching this place with 1500 men, and taking possession of it in the name of the Conservatives. Such is the talk at present, and many fears areentertained that we are not going to have a very good time of it, unless a United States man-of-war comes down here pretty soon. I send you a decree of the Government, granting the right of way to Col. W. L. Caznmea to open a wagon road from the river Brazos del Norte through the State of Sonora, to the Gulf of California. The conditions or concessions of this grant are not made known, but I infer from the wording of the decree that they are both extensive and important. Our enterprising men are just hemming this country in with these privileges, and I mightily incline to the opinion that a war will result from some of them yet. The news of the war in Europe has created some sensation at this place, for while it gives as hopes in one respect, that the United States will take advan- tage of it to settle Mexican matters satisfactorily, it has somewhat clouded the faces of the merchants here who trade in mahogany, for Europe is a good customer of ours, and any derangement there affects even the commerce of this obscure part of the world. Louislana Intelligenee. The Franklin San of Friday last says that the dry weather is seriously injuring the crops in that region, but there were prospects of rain. The Pointe Coupee Echo of Saturday last has the following : Our crops, we are sorry to say, are suffering greatly for rain, and unless we hare some shortly, a greater part of the corn will be entirely lost. The cane, both stubble and plant, we have never seen looking better, and gives promise of a crop equal to last year. Not- withstanding the many disadvantages under which nor planters have labored this year, in being required to work so constantly upon the levees, to the neglect of their crops, we predict that the sugarcrop of this parish, with the present indications, will not fall short of twenty thousand hogsheads. The slave William, accused of the crime of arson, was tried on Saturday last and found guilty. He was sentenced to the penitentiary for life. Dr. Hale, the Electro-Biologist, gave his first lec- ture in Shreveport on the evening of the 8th inst. The Shreveport Southwestern of the 8th says : The river opposite this port has fallen about one foot during the past week. Last Tuesday, Mr. James Johnson,residing in this parish, near Point Monterey, was struck on the head with a hoe, by one of his negro men. On Saturday, the District Attorney, Hinton Smith, Esq., tried to organize a court for the purpose of trying the negro, but was unable to procure a jury. The negro was com, mitted to jail to await trial, blt on the way hither, he was taken away ftom the officers Ip a nomber of citizens, who, it is said, intend to take the matter in their own hands. The Morehouse Advocate has the following : The weather has been exceedingly sultry for the past week, and the dust qlite disagreeahle. We are needing rain very much indeed, and if it does not soon come the crops will be materially injured. Corn is sesuming a sickly yellow hue in consequence, and the earth in many places is perfectly parched. The health of the community continues good. I'. S.-Sinee writing the above we have had a re- frelsing shower of rain. We have something like cholera ameng the hogs, which is proving very destructive in many portions of the parish. They are very suddenly taken with frothing at the mouth, and die in a remarkably short time. A great many have been found in and around town which have died from this disease, and it haa kept the ' authorities" busily engaged in hauling them away. From the lupides American, of Saturday last, we extract the following: The weather is still dry and hot. We have had no rain for the past louror lire weeks, and the orn crolp is suffering for the want of it. Our streets are wvry dusty. We tbhank it would be well for the town Council to have them watered occasionally. Since writing the above we have had a pleasant and refreshing ohower. Our river is falling rapidly at this point, and we may expect tIhat " ent•il craft will soon take the place of the "fIlating palaces" which we have bad with us the paust season. Department News, The WashingtonConstitution of the 10th publishes the following official intelligence : The certificate of the Governor of Alabama of the completion of 100 miles of the Alabama and Tennes- see Railroad-from Selma north-has been received at the General Land Office. This certificate is made in accordancewith an act of Congress granting lands to the road. The Navy Department has directed a Naval Board of Engineers to assemble at New York on the 11th of July next, to . xamine candidates for promotion or admission in the engineer corps of the United States Navy. The Agricultural Bureau of the United States Pa- tent Office has just received a case of tea seed from Hong-kong, per ship Eagle. Another lot, now on their way on boardthe ship Romanee of the Seas, will ebomplete the stock. Numerous applications for these seeds arereceived by every mail. Mostof the applications come from the Southern States. The plant may be cultivated as far north as the southern portion or New York, and some propose a trial of the seed inMasoachnsetts. In China, tea is grown in climates that make ice of ten inches during the winter. A " startling" article in the New York Herald of the uth inst., under the imposing head, " astonishing fraudsin the Post-Office Department," coolly statee that recent investigations in the Post-Office Depart- ment lead to the belief that that Department loses one million of dollars a year by the useof counterfeit and washed postage stamnps. We find, oni inquiry, that no investigation has been made leading to the belief,or even the suspicion, that seell startling and whblesale frauds have been committed. On the contrary, careful investigation in the Department has led to the conclion that, ol- though occasional attempts aremade to use canceled and washed stamps in payment of postage, such at. tempts ore rarelysuccessful, and that no considera- ble loss to the revenue has resulted from this abuse. We find that the Department has no reasonto be- lieve-either from proof or reasonable presumptiou-- that there has been any counterfeiting of postage stamps since their introduction into the service. The sale of postage stamps has increased and is increas- ing from year to year in a nearly uniform ratio. Solrely this could not be the case if the statements of the Herald be true. Moreover, it would be next to impossible to introduce counterfeit stamps to any considerableextent without exciting suspicion, ex- cept it may be through the agency o' dishonest post- office officials a and in this way it would not be pos- sible to succed without assistance in all the principal offices of the Union. Innooue otficecould many spuri- ons stamps be sold ; because the diminished demand for the legitimate stampswould necessarily at once arrest the attention of the postmaster, Tnsaorstis ' WOEEKLY STATEaSNT.-- By returns received to Monday, 6th June, 1839 : Rieceipt ...................... $......1,262,7N4 31 Drafts issued........................ 1,71,366•3l : Reduction........................... 405,512 32 Amount subject to draft.............. 3,573,697 56 SCENERY IN THE GULtFr OF YEno.--The scenery was neither Indin nor Chinrese, and presented more of tihe features ol a land within the temperate than of one. touching the torrid zone.

LoNDoN, June 4.-Advices from impartial Italian sources fully confirm the capture of Palestro by the Sardinians, and their second more glorious victory over the enemy in twice defeating their attempt to capture the place. Another severe engagement had taken place at Confrensa, in which the Austrians were again re- pulsed with considerable loss. The picket of the Austrians endeavored to cross the Po at Cervessaria, but were repulsed by the in- habitants, and obliged to abandon the attack. The Austrians have evacuated Varo, and are retreat- ing into Lombardy from various points. At the second attempt to retake Paleatro, the Aus- trians were repulsed by the division of the Sardin- lans under the command of Gen. Cialdini, who has risen from a peasant to the rank of General of the I Sardinian army. The attack of the Austrians at Seste Calende was made on Tuesday, the 31st ult. Accounts from Garibaldi's headquarters say that a numerous corps having arrived before Varese, he or- dered theNational Guard not to resist, but to fall back on Lago Maggiore. An attack, says a dispatch from Garibaldi's camp, was attempted byour troops against Laveno,on Lake Maggiore, but was abandoned without result. General Bontems, commander-in-chief of the Fede- ral corps of observation stationed in the canton Tici. no, whose headquarters were at Belliagona, advanced to Sogano as soon as he received the intelligence of the advance of Austrian corps in the direction of La- veno. The object of the Austrians in this movement wasto attack Garibaldi in the rear, and cut off his re- treat to the mountains. It was this corps of the Austrian troops, no doubt, that committed the first breach of the Swiss neutral- ity, and caused the Federal Government to send rein- forcements to the cantons of Ticino and Grisons. All the steamboats on the Lago Maggiore and the Lake of Come are in the possession of Garibaldi. LveaRPOoL, June 4.-TheWheat market closed very Sdull.

LoNDoN, June 4.-A dispatch arrived at Verona on the 1st instant from the Austrian Imperial head - quarters, announcing that the allied armies had at- tacked the vanguard of the seventh Austrian Cor ps d'Armer. After a severe engagement the Allies were obliged to fall back. The Seventh Austrian Corps d'Armee was under the eommand of General Z bel, and the bulletin asserts that a large number of the Allies were killed1 and wounded, without stating the number or locality. BERNE, SWrTZERLAND, June 3.-The federal an- thorities have been privately informed of the arrival of the Duchess of Parma, Louise Marie, icognito ; her flight being actuated by the revolt of her subjects who threw off their yoke and have joined the cause of Italian independence. Loxvno, June 4.-Dispatches from Milan via Vi- enna give the Austrian account of the bombardment and capture of Varese, an important position be- tween Como and Lake Magglore. The Austrians were commanded by General Urban, who succeeded, after a very heavy cannonade, in driving out the vol- unteers of Garabaldi, and entering the town. Gen. Urban issued a proclamation, In which he severely reprimanded the inhabitants for their incon- stancy to the Emnperor Francis Joseph. To punish them he ordered the levying of an exorbitant contri- bution of war in cash and provisions. Advices have been received at London to the effect that the long expected insurrections in those territo- ries situated between the Adriatic and the Danube have broken out. The whole of the Herzogovina is in open revolt, and have proclaimed their independence from the Ottoman Porte. The same excitement prevails in Montenegro and other Provinc es. On account of this state of affairs, the Government of the Sultan has ordered the different garrisonsin its dominions to be reinforced. The garrison of Belgrade, on the Danube, (BIunga. rian frontier) has already been trebled. lBesides the formation of volunteer corps, under en- gagements of ten years, and the steady increase of the army of Paris, the Minister of War has ordered the recall of French soldiers on leave, of all Dep art- ments throughout the Empire. The execution of this order will increase the army 77,000. The active negotiations of Cardinal State Secretary Antonelli have fully succeeded. The Allied Powers, after having recognized Francis the Second as King of Naples, have consented to ac- knowledge the neutrality of the Papal States during the pending war. The excitement of the Germans, on the Rhine, against the French, since the formation of the army of observation under Peleasier, has risen to such a pitch that daily quarrels occur among the inhabitants o' the bordering states. Thus at Hesse Cassell some large manufacturers were obliged to discharge large numbers of hands. SOver seven hundred French working men were obliged to leave in one day. French engineers have arrived at Intra, on Lake Maggiore, in order to make the necoesary arrange- meats for providing vessels for the tranuportation of troops accoss the Lake. Lov•one, June 4.-A new company has been formed for the purpose of laying an Atlantic cable from Cornwall to Canada. The capital stock is to be 600,00. Lowose, June 4.-The transpot ship easter Mo•n- archb,anchored ofSpithead, exploded, neonsequence of the ignition of a large quantity of asltpeter which was on board. Five children and two adata perished. LosDow, June 4.-Intelligence has been received of the capture of thirtyfive Austrian merchant ws- sels by the French squadron in the Adriatic. The vessels and cargoes of these priles are valued at 4,000,000pounds. Lossne, June 4.-As was reported Parliament opened on the 31st ultimo. and Denason was elected Speaker of the House of Commons, though no public business will be transacted until the formal opening by the Queen on the 7th instant. Numerous caucuses had been held by the various political parties for the purpose of ascertaining their respective strength. It appears that the Ministry discovered that their majority is not as largeas was represented after the recent election, and it is rumored that three seats in the Cabinet have been offered to Bright and his radi- cal friends, who bold the balance in their hands. The test vote will probably be on the foreign policy of the Governmentduring the Address debates. LonDon, June 4.-The intelligence of the failure of Paul Von Stellan, of Ansburg, has been re- celved. LonDow, June 4.-The rates of discount in the Bank of Englandstill continue to fall. Sir Joseph Howley's borne Mlujed won the Derby race, which was closely contested. The puree was 7000, and it is rumored that Sir Howley won bets to the amount of 57,000. DOMESTIC INTELLIGENCE. ALCRIVAL OF A MetAVERI IN NEW YORK. THE TEXAN DIFFICULTIES SETTLED.

A P•leraEsanT. -Last evening, says a late North- ern exchange, a handsome looking woman was passa lug down West Water Street with a little basket of eggs in her hand, and when a few yards from the Me- nomenee barn, was knocked down on the sidewalk. Her cries brought a gallant widower to the rescue, who saw to his horror a billy goat that evidently had a horn too much, doing his best to put an end to the poor woman's misery. The widower tried to scare the goat away, but he wouldn't be scared. He tried to help the lady op, when butt came the head of the goat against himself, and two bulls together came, for the goat gave him another, and down he fell croowise the lacy, to the seriousdamage of a dozen fresh eggs. "Help!" cried the man; "get olff of me, you villain," said the injuredfemale. " But, my good womn,"-soand butt went the rough horn of the goat, and spoiled an eight dollar pair of pants. SHelp !" criedthe woman," my eggs!" "Oh, my pants!" cried the man. " But never mind the pants; get op !" cried the lady; and just as he was trying to-et up, butt came the goat, and down came the man again. The cries of the two victims brought quite a crowd to the spot, where there lay the man-" twin miseries pregnant with danger "-and there advauc- iog and retreating, bluting first one and then the other, oscillated the confoundedgoat. The last buttll lie made,one of his horns caught in the baske', and he left the scene of action with the basket hanging over one eye, and the yolk of three or four eggs dri. zling down his magnilicent beard. The man backed outuntil h yond the reach of the lady's eyes, when he turned andran like a quarter-horse, swearing at all goats in generaland this one in particular,while thellady sat down and with a piece of shingle and a few pins, cleaned and repaired the badly damaged dress. Mr. Wiliam Hanford, a young gentleman from Bos. ton, in a singularly dilapidated condition, set out some days since for Chicago, and took passage by the Erie canal. At Syracuse, finding himself weary and benighted, he appliedfor a bed at the watchoose, and wan suppliedfor the evening with the upper side of a board. to the morning he was brought before the magiItrate, who asked him, "Why did ynou not sleep on the busoat?" Hanford--" Got a cold in my eyes." Justice--" Did you like your lodgings in the watch. house?" Hanford--" No." Justice-" How soon do you intend to proceedon yourjourney ?" Hanford-" As soon as I can fnd the canal." Justice--" Here, officer, show this man to the canal, and tell him which way is west."- [Exeunt.

The country round Varese is in insnrrection. General Garibaldi is in puroit of the retreating army. Today the Emperor went to Veroelli, accompanied by Generals Vaillant and De Ia MIarmonra. His Me- jesty was received by the authorities, the clergy and population, who saluted him with hearty plaudits. Germany. Accounts from toe southern States of Germany re- iterate the reports that the war excitement there was I most intense. Explanations are said to have been demanded respecting the passage of the Austrian troops throogh Bavarian territory. at the sitting of the Federal Diet, at Frankfort, on the 26th, the Minor German states voted that in cer- 1 tain eventualities, military measuresshould be taken. i Pru-ia claimed that in such cuase the lnitiatireshould be accorded to her. Reports continue to circulate that Prussia would call ot the Landwebr on the 5th June. NArPLE.--It is said that all the powers, with the exception of France andSardinia, had acknowledged, by telegraph, the new King of Naples. The King was proclaimed at Caserta on Sunday the 22d, and the garrison took the oath of allegiance the same day. Tihe garrisonof Naples took the same oath on the 25th. The capital was tranquil, but it was feared hat Court intrigue might give rise to trouble. The King, confiding in his army, was making prepara- tions to uoppress any outbreak of a revolution de pa. lais. He had ordered the arrest of severalsuspected persons of distinction. In his proclamation announcing his accession to the throne, the King avoids making any engagements for the future, and from announcing his opinion on the Italian peninsular. The following dispatch has also been received at Mr. Reuter's office : " MARSugILLS, Thursday,May 26. "The steamer Vesuvio, which left Naples on the 24th, has arrivedhere with a full complement of pas anoger,who have hurriedly qoitted Naples from fear of a collision, which appearedimminent there. "The Court Is divided. The King, eonfiding In his army, is mkinug preparations to suppres any outbreak of a Revolation de Palais. " His lMajety has ordered the arrest of several osuspected persons of distinction. " It is asserted that the King will declare for neu- trality. "tHis Mjoesty has received by telegraph reasuring communicatlonsfrom the great powers.' Rome. Tun Swiss IrrITED TO REVOLT.-We learn from Rome, under date of the 21st instant, that active at- tempts have been made to induce the Swiss troops in the service of the Pope to revolt. The following pro. clamationwas distributed in the Swiss barracks: " Soldiers of the foreign regiments-Asetria, the sole cause of our slavery, is already enclosed in a circle by the invincible armies of France and Pied- mont. The people are rising In crowds to defend the rights of Italy. Soldies, you have the choice either to reinforce the ranks of the Italian army or to return freely to your families. Soldiers I will yo fight in defence of a tyrannicalgovernment ? You, the sons of William Tell, of noble France and Ger- many, of independent spirit! You, the children of nations too generous to disgrace yourselves by such ignominious conduct! Recollect that your officers deceived you when they induced you to- enlist with promises they have never performed. You are the victims-you are the instruments of brutal oppres. sion. Recollect that you have been treated notas men, but as brutes. *Do not trust in your officers, who are actuated by the vilest motives. They would engage you in battle with a people who aspire to con- quer that which you enjoy Io your own country. Theywould forceyou intoan unjust contest by In- vokiog the honor of yourflag ; but can therebe honor where there is no josticel Moreover, what will it avail you to tight since France is with us? Follow, therefore,the example of your brother,who, in 1848, fought gloriously beside us, and mixed their blood with ours in the huhol cause of Italy. Soldiers, come then to us; we will receive yen with open arms as brothers, crying at the same time," Long live the soldiers of the foreign regimental Italy for ever." VOTING EAr.Y.-A benighted Chesterfieldlan, after thlree hours whipping over a ricketty road and In a ricketty buggy, drove up to Chesterfield Coart-House on Thursday,and asked where the" polls" were, as he desired to cast his vote for Honest John Letcher. He was incontinentally grinned at by several of the bystanders, and suddenlyfelt himself in the vocative, when one of them informed him that the election had transpired just a week before, and the consequence was hlie " couldn't come it,': so he wheeled his horse and put out for homeagain, somewhat done for in the way of disappoinotment. It Iseaid that this man has never taken a newspaperand don't know what an almanac is. He keeps his account of the days and months by cutting them on a stick, but this time his "notches" didn't tell the troth by seven days. OhI what a commentary-it is oseless to say more.

    BnlrAffSKPA's OPINroN oF AseramA.-Two centa.rties and a half ago Shakspeare put the following lan*gaage lIto the mouth of Lady Constance, in the playof King John :

    O Austrial thou dout shameThat bloody spoil: Thou slave, thou wretch, thou

    coward'Thou little valiant, great In villainy IThor ever strong upon the stronger side !Thn lfortene's thampion, that dust never fightBut Whe her humorous ladyshtp Is byTot eachthee safetyl Thou art perar'd, too,And ilouth'et igreatness.

    Fourth isltrict Girls' Higt Schsool.

    Messrs. Edilors--Will you please give place inynur columnsto thie following account of the exer.eles at the examination of the Fou•t District Girls'High School, of which Madame Pagaud Is Principal?

    The examInation commenced with the SecondComtse is Algebr, consisting of ten pupils, underthe charge of Miss Burr. The scholars all answeredwell, and the only fault to be found was the very lowand tdlstinet utterance of the answers to the quesnttioaspropounded. Miss Bury, however, gut her qoes-tiols hi a clear and distinct tone.

    The next on the programme was an article readtfrom the "Magnolia Leaf," by the edltress, Miss Bee.ite PattLseo, which would have done credit to an

    older head. Following this was the composition ofMiSr Lesette Walker on the "Mbosquito," which elic-ited some beautifol and original ideas, but both wereread in too low a tone to be fully appreciated.

    The First Course, under the charge of Mira AnnieCornelin, was next examined. This Course did sowell in the analysis of words and sentences that itWould be impossible to particularize, which is quitecomplimentary to the competency of the pleasantlady who governs this class. This class consists ofthirty-three or four echolars.

    Next in order came another examination of theSecond Course, under Miss Barr, on the "Elementsof Natural Science." In this class all seemed equallywell prepared, and gave very general satisfaction.

    Miss Battle Wood read an original composition on"Sunshione," which caused a gleam of that article tobrighten the countenances of the audience. CLm-position good, and well redd.

    Miss Mary Hillard next read an original composni-tion on the "sEconomy of Time," which sounded tous very solid, conilgt from one no youl.g. It wasread In slow and meoueured tones, and reflected creditupon the fair young authoress.

    A song here varied the pleasures of the exercises-" How Sweet are the .oses,"--which was sungvery prettily.

    The third course, under Mrs. Plagaud, on Rhetoric,consisting of thirteen scholars, was examined next.The great fault here again was the low utterance,with the exception of SMiss Ellen Criswell, who spokein distinct tones. The third course in French, underthe charge of Madame Baerns, acquitted themselvesvery credibly, aed the very competent teacher de-serves great credit for her efforts in advancing thisclass. There are thirteen pupils in this course; someof them answered too low. in this class MissAmanda Smith and Emma Rtoser appeared to excel.Fourth course in French cnonciated much betterthan the third. In this class the Misses Mary Kop.man, Mary Pettiss and Hattie Leopold showed thatthey had made good use of the advantage of havingsuch a perfect teacher as Madame Bereos. blissFannie Jackson's recitation was well delivered ; MissBesle Pattison's original composition on " Woman'sMission," and Miss Emma Robertson's on " SummerThoughts," were very satisfactory to the audience.After this the audience were regaled with an abund.ance of varied refreshments.

    Alter the refreshments, were enjoyed the exer-cises of the Fourth Course, under charge of the Prin-cipal, on.Astrnomy. This Course was very well ad-vanced, and the Principal ought to feel quite proudof the satisfactory renponses made by them.

    Miss loary Kopman and Miss Isabella Smith readeach an original composition, which gave promise ofsomething above sedincrity in the futulre.

    The Examination concluded with exercises in Geometry and Intellectual Philosophy, by the FourthCourse. In these, the young ladies proved that theybad not been idle in acquiring knowledge in thesebranches.

    Lest, and not by any means least, was tile FarewellAddress of Miss Mary Pettus. It would be poorpraise to say it was beautiful, for tihe tears thatdanced In the eyes of the audience was the best proofof the appreciation In which it was held.

    The modest, gentle and unpretending little lady,read it with much feeling, for her words were almostchoked by tihe intensity of her feelings. All in all,the Garden District I as cnause to be proud of its tCach-ers, and the pupils of its citizens.

    A FR'eEND OF PUBLIC sntItOOLS.

    WASHINGTON MEDALS AND TH MEOUNT VERNONAssocIATtoN.-Mr. Snowden, Director of the Mint atPhil idelphia, writes to Miss Cunningham,the Regentor the Ladies' Blount Vernon Association, a letter,from which the following is an extract:

    It is my intention, in addition to the establishmentof a Cabinet of Washington medals at the mint, toprocure as many duplicates as I can of these interest-sag memorials of the Father of his Country, and pre.seat them to tie Association over whilch you preside.The home and grave of our beloved Washington wouldbe an appropriate place for such a Cabinet.

    Miss Cunnioghsm replies as follows:In rescuing Mount Vernon from the neglect in

    which it has too long rested, it is our design to gatherthere, if possible, everything connected with the pastof our country, which is inseplarably associated withthe name of Washington, or that could, in any res.pect, exhibit that veneration for his memory becom.Ing the children who are enjoying the blessings hisvwisdom secured.

    Your kind and patriotic proposal will materiallyassist us in accomplishing this purpose, and shouldthe proposed gift be consummuated, the consciotsnessof having added so attractive a feature to that spot.,around which the affectionate interest of the nationclusters, will no doubt be ample reward for the laborit will cost, apart from the thanks of the Association,which you will thus have fully won.

    MBelsl to the New Orlenns Oreeeont.]MINATrTLAN, June 4, 1859.

    Eds. Crescent: The steamship Coatzacoalcoe nothaving arrived here op to this date, I write you bysteamer Jasper, dispatched to New Orleans by theagent of the Tehoantepee Company with the Cali-fornia mails and passengers. This little community,as a matter of course, feels considerable anxiety onthe subject of the steamer; but we can come to noother conclusion than that she has met with some ac-cident at sea which has disabled her, for there hasbeen no commotion at sea suficient to endanger hersafety.' The absence of the letters and papers is verygreatly felt.

    Mr. McLane has written to Mr. Allen, U. 8. Consulhere, that Cohos is on the march to the Isthmus ofTehoantepec with 2000 men, and that he (the Minis-ter) has ordered, or will order, the Fulton or WaterWitch to this port just so soon as either of the vesselsreach the gulf. She will be inatructed to yield everyprotection to American interests on this Isthmus.

    Mr. McLane is stopping for a while at San Andreasde Tuxtla, where he hopes to ftnd a healthy andpleasant residence daring the sickly season, when hispublic business will allow him to be absent from VeraCruz.

    The Buchil came down the river yesterday with theCalifornia mails and passengers on board, togetherwith a few f the Mexican dignitaries. Gen. Degolladowas among the latter number, and if he had not beenpointed out to me, I should certainly never haveknown him. He does not look like a great man, andI scarcely think he is; but as it is not popular tojudge men by their personal appearance, I shall notexpress mine of Gen. Degollado, particularly since Ihave taken pains to give you my opinion of his pub-lie actions. He has resigned his position as Com-mander-in-Chief of the Army, and Is now on his wayt> Vera Cruz to take his seat in the Cabinet of Presi-dent Juarez as Secretary of War. His successor, asCommander-in-Chief, is General Zuaua, a man fromthe Northern States of the Republic, and one as-counted to be somewhat more energetic than Degol-lado, though about as much of a military man. Zua-zuoa is a farmer, and therefore liable to commit manyfaults, but his second in command, Gen. Ztragossa, itis thought, will assist the principal commander out ofany very embarrassiag difficulty. You must excuseme. but it is impossible to write about Mexican mill-tary or political affairs, in a sober strain, for theymake such a farce of them that I cannot put on atragedy face. Degollado comes from Acapulco, butbrings no later news than what I wrote you in myother letter.

    By private parties, passengers across at the sametime, I understand that it is already becoming dan-gerous for Americans to go across the Transit routeexcept in large parties, for the Church party is ac-quiring such ascendency on the Pacific side, and isso hostile to Americans, that one man is not safe ifhe is caught away from the city of Tehunntepec, orfrom the companionship of his countrymen. I be-lieve the rumor to be true, and that it will not be longbefore he same conlition of alffirs will exist at thinplace, when we shall have to stay in town if we desireto keep whole hides. Matters are approaching a criishere which must result in bloodshed, and it will bedone on private account if the Government does notprotect us. The Water Witch may be enabled topreserve the peace here, but the foul outrage on thisside of the Isthmus will be resented by all the Amer-icons settled on the line of transit from Suchil toMlinatitlan.

    I hear a rumor prevalent that the Governors ofcertain States are just now on the fence whether torevolt from Juarez and declare themselves neutral, orwhether still to adhere to the Liberal party. Theeffect of a consummation of these rumors would beto deprive the Liberal party of a considerable rev-enue for the aforesaid Governors propose to seizeupon the Custom-louse revenues and the nationalfunds, and to hold them until some solution of thedifficulty is had. I hope the rumor may prove un-true, but there is no relying upon Mexicans, high orlow,and therefore it is no safe bond to engage for thefidelity of any of them.

    The rainy season has set in, in good earnest, andthe steamer Suchil now ascends almost to the townof Suchil almost every trip, which will shorten thepassage at least two days, and perhaps four, goingto Ventosa. She will be a decided improvement forthe California passengers.

    The new steamer Allegheny Belle, brought over bythe Coatzacoalcos on the last trip, has been nation-alized in this country, and is now called the Minstitllan. She made a very fiworable impression on hertrial trip, but unfortunately she broke her shaft, andis now useless until a new one is brought down fromNew'Orleans.

    There are many parties at present "lying aboutloose" in this section who are anxious and waitingfor an opportunity to explore the head waters ofseveral rivers that have their rise in the mountainsthat intersect this isthmus. It is almost certain thatlarge deposits will ultimately be found somewhereadjacent to the sources of the Uspenapa or Aloma-loyo rivers, for the Indians display comparativelylarge quantities of crude gold occasionally when theyrequire any personal ornament. There are no jew-elers in this place, but as you proceed into the in-terior they become quite common, and heavy goldcombs, ear-rings and necklaces are articles of com-mon wear with the lowest classes. It is no unfre-quent sight to meet a woman bare-footed and half.dressed with a thirty dollar comb in her head, or avaluable pair of bracelets on her arms. This jew-elry, they say, all comes from the interior, and thegold for its manufacture is furnished by the Indians,who will not reveal from whence they derive it.Quite recently a Mexican came to this place totrade, who made his payments in virgin ore, just ashe would have done ten years ago It California.He passed unnoticed the first time, but subsequentlyhe again canme to town, and this time with largerquantities and in heavier qualities, some of his piecesweighing an ounce and many weighing more than aquarter of an ounce. This led to a suspicion that heknew where there were valuable mines, and manyinquiries were made of him, but all to no effect, forhe denied all knowledge of the source of such treas.ures. As a last resort, I believe the people at Acay-ucam, about thirty miles from here, took it intotheir heads to try the inquisition upon him, and forthat purpose he was arrested, put in jail, and thetorture applied, but for all knowledge of the troth Ihelieve his judges are still in the dark. He persist-ently refused to make any revelation. The Mexicanssay that he would forfeit his life to the Indians if hetold where the mines where. In this connection, itis somewhat singular that these Leautifol rivers havenot been explored, and that we are still in datknessas to where they oliginate or what course they run.Here is a field for adventure for some roving partythat would be worth the trouble to go over, and oftwice the value, commercially speakting, of all Arc-tic explorations. An engineer, connected with theJeckel surveying party, informs me that in runninghis lines across the mountains between this placeand Tehuantepec, he came across Indians who hadnever seen a white man in their lives, who spoke nolrnguage known to his party, and were absolute"freeblovers," living 11 together, and twenty orthirty men and women sleeping in one bed, and acknowledging a community of wives and properties.In another place he passed through a village wherethe Indians had light hair, fair complexion and blueeyes; and yet another town where all the inhabitantswere lepers, covered with the white spots ofl that de-testable plague. Such are a few of the human won.ders to be scared up in this section, and we only needa few trappers from among the Rocky Mlountains todavelope as great natural curiosities.

    A Mexican named a andoval committed suicide inthis place on the night of the 27th, by hanging him-self. He was in debt, and it is supposed this drovehim to commit the desperate act.

    A meeting has been held here, and a contract isadvertised on the door posts for lighting the streetsof Mlinatitlan at night, I have but little faith in theproject.

    Some little anxiety is felt here to know what ourGoveronment will do if Cobos, one of Miramon's Gen-erals, should succeed in reaching this place with1500 men, and taking possession of it in the name ofthe Conservatives. Such is the talk at present, andmany fears are entertained that we are not going tohave a very good time of it, unless a United Statesman-of-war comes down here pretty soon.

    I send you a decree of the Government, grantingthe right of way to Col. W. L. Caznmea to open awagon road from the river Brazos del Norte throughthe State of Sonora, to the Gulf of California. Theconditions or concessions of this grant are not madeknown, but I infer from the wording of the decreethat they are both extensive and important. Ourenterprising men are just hemming this country inwith these privileges, and I mightily incline to theopinion that a war will result from some of them yet.

    The news of the war in Europe has created somesensation at this place, for while it gives as hopes inone respect, that the United States will take advan-tage of it to settle Mexican matters satisfactorily, ithas somewhat clouded the faces of the merchantshere who trade in mahogany, for Europe is a goodcustomer of ours, and any derangement there affectseven the commerce of this obscure part of theworld.

    Louislana Intelligenee.

    The Franklin San of Friday last says that the dryweather is seriously injuring the crops in that region,but there were prospects of rain.

    The Pointe Coupee Echo of Saturday last has thefollowing :

    Our crops, we are sorry to say, are suffering greatlyfor rain, and unless we hare some shortly, a greaterpart of the corn will be entirely lost. The cane, bothstubble and plant, we have never seen looking better,and gives promise of a crop equal to last year. Not-withstanding the many disadvantages under whichnor planters have labored this year, in being requiredto work so constantly upon the levees, to the neglectof their crops, we predict that the sugar crop of thisparish, with the present indications, will not fallshort of twenty thousand hogsheads.

    The slave William, accused of the crime of arson,was tried on Saturday last and found guilty. Hewas sentenced to the penitentiary for life.

    Dr. Hale, the Electro-Biologist, gave his first lec-ture in Shreveport on the evening of the 8th inst.

    The Shreveport Southwestern of the 8th says :The river opposite this port has fallen about one

    foot during the past week.Last Tuesday, Mr. James Johnson,residing in this

    parish, near Point Monterey, was struck on the headwith a hoe, by one of his negro men. On Saturday,the District Attorney, Hinton Smith, Esq., tried toorganize a court for the purpose of trying the negro,but was unable to procure a jury. The negro was com,mitted to jail to await trial, blt on the way hither, hewas taken away ftom the officers Ip a nomber ofcitizens, who, it is said, intend to take the matter intheir own hands.

    The Morehouse Advocate has the following :The weather has been exceedingly sultry for the

    past week, and the dust qlite disagreeahle. We areneeding rain very much indeed, and if it does notsoon come the crops will be materially injured. Cornis sesuming a sickly yellow hue in consequence, andthe earth in many places is perfectly parched. Thehealth of the community continues good.

    I'. S.-Sinee writing the above we have had a re-frelsing shower of rain.

    We have something like cholera ameng the hogs,which is proving very destructive in many portionsof the parish. They are very suddenly taken withfrothing at the mouth, and die in a remarkably shorttime. A great many have been found in and aroundtown which have died from this disease, and it haakept the ' authorities" busily engaged in haulingthem away.

    From the lupides American, of Saturday last, weextract the following:

    The weather is still dry and hot. We have had norain for the past louror lire weeks, and the orncrolp is suffering for the want of it. Our streets arewvry dusty. We tbhank it would be well for the townCouncil to have them watered occasionally.

    Since writing the above we have had a pleasantand refreshing ohower.

    Our river is falling rapidly at this point, and wemay expect tIhat " ent•il craft will soon take theplace of the "fIlating palaces" which we have badwith us the paust season.

    Department News,

    The Washington Constitution of the 10th publishesthe following official intelligence :

    The certificate of the Governor of Alabama of thecompletion of 100 miles of the Alabama and Tennes-see Railroad-from Selma north-has been receivedat the General Land Office. This certificate is madein accordance with an act of Congress granting landsto the road.

    The Navy Department has directed a Naval Boardof Engineers to assemble at New York on the 11th ofJuly next, to . xamine candidates for promotion oradmission in the engineer corps of the United StatesNavy.

    The Agricultural Bureau of the United States Pa-tent Office has just received a case of tea seed fromHong-kong, per ship Eagle. Another lot, now ontheir way on board the ship Romanee of the Seas,will ebomplete the stock. Numerous applications forthese seeds are received by every mail. Most of theapplications come from the Southern States. Theplant may be cultivated as far north as the southernportion or New York, and some propose a trial of theseed in Masoachnsetts. In China, tea is grown inclimates that make ice of ten inches during thewinter.

    A " startling" article in the New York Herald ofthe uth inst., under the imposing head, " astonishingfrauds in the Post-Office Department," coolly stateethat recent investigations in the Post-Office Depart-ment lead to the belief that that Department losesone million of dollars a year by the useof counterfeitand washed postage stamnps.

    We find, oni inquiry, that no investigation has beenmade leading to the belief, or even the suspicion,that seell startling and whblesale frauds have beencommitted. On the contrary, careful investigationin the Department has led to the conclion that, ol-though occasional attempts are made to use canceledand washed stamps in payment of postage, such at.tempts ore rarely successful, and that no considera-ble loss to the revenue has resulted from this abuse.We find that the Department has no reason to be-lieve-either from proof or reasonable presumptiou--that there has been any counterfeiting of postagestamps since their introduction into the service. Thesale of postage stamps has increased and is increas-ing from year to year in a nearly uniform ratio.

    Solrely this could not be the case if the statementsof the Herald be true. Moreover, it would be next toimpossible to introduce counterfeit stamps to anyconsiderable extent without exciting suspicion, ex-cept it may be through the agency o' dishonest post-office officials a and in this way it would not be pos-sible to succed without assistance in all the principaloffices of the Union. In nooue otficecould many spuri-ons stamps be sold ; because the diminished demandfor the legitimate stamps would necessarily at oncearrest the attention of the postmaster,

    SCENERY IN THE GULtFr OF YEno.--The scenerywas neither Indin nor Chinrese, and presented moreof tihe features ol a land within the temperate thanof one. touching the torrid zone. The lower andnearer portions of the shores of the Gulf resembledstrongly some of the most picturesque spots in ourdear islands; yet we have no gull in Britain uponsuch a scale as that of Yedo. Take the fairest por.tion of the coast of Devonshire and all the shores ofthe Isle of Wight; form with their combined beautya gull forty-five miles long, and varrying in widltfrom ten to thirty; in every nook and valley, as wellas along evrry sandy bay, pilace pretty towns endvillages ; cut out all brick and plaster villas with Co-rinthian porticoes, and introduce the neatest chullrseSwitzerlaud ever produced ; strew the brightsea withquaint vsesels and picturesque boats-and you willhave the loreground of the picture. For background,scatter to tte eastward the finest scenery our Bigh-lands of Scotland can afford-leave the blue andpurple tints untouched, as well as the pine-tree andmountainaslh ; far back, fifty miles off, on the west-ern side of the Gulf, amidst masses of snowy cloudsand streams of golden mist, -let a lofty mountainrange be seen, tnd at its center rear a magnificentcone, tis beoa ,tiful Fusi-huma, the " Matchless Mottll-tain" of Japan-and then, perhaps, the reader canin saomt way picture to his mind's eye the beauties ofthe Gulf ef Yedo, in the loveliness of that bright d.aywhen it glddcned our sight.

    BYr taU ArTIOxAL LI a.LoNDoN, June 4.-Advices from impartial Italian

    sources fully confirm the capture of Palestro by theSardinians, and their second more glorious victoryover the enemy in twice defeating their attempt tocapture the place.

    Another severe engagement had taken place atConfrensa, in which the Austrians were again re-pulsed with considerable loss.

    The picket of the Austrians endeavored to crossthe Po at Cervessaria, but were repulsed by the in-habitants, and obliged to abandon the attack.

    The Austrians have evacuated Varo, and are retreat-ing into Lombardy from various points.At the second attempt to retake Paleatro, the Aus-

    trians were repulsed by the division of the Sardin-lans under the command of Gen. Cialdini, who hasrisen from a peasant to the rank of General of theI Sardinian army.

    The attack of the Austrians at Seste Calende wasmade on Tuesday, the 31st ult.

    Accounts from Garibaldi's headquarters say that anumerous corps having arrived before Varese, he or-dered the National Guard not to resist, but to fallback on Lago Maggiore.An attack, says a dispatch from Garibaldi's camp,

    was attempted byour troops against Laveno,on LakeMaggiore, but was abandoned without result.

    General Bontems, commander-in-chief of the Fede-ral corps of observation stationed in the canton Tici.no, whose headquarters were at Belliagona, advancedto Sogano as soon as he received the intelligence ofthe advance of Austrian corps in the direction of La-veno. The object of the Austrians in this movementwas to attack Garibaldi in the rear, and cut off his re-treat to the mountains.It was this corps of the Austrian troops, no doubt,

    that committed the first breach of the Swiss neutral-ity, and caused the Federal Government to send rein-forcements to the cantons of Ticino and Grisons.

    All the steamboats on the Lago Maggiore and theLake of Come are in the possession of Garibaldi.

    After a severe engagement the Allies were obligedto fall back.

    The Seventh Austrian Corps d'Armee was underthe eommand of General Z bel, and the bulletinasserts that a large number of the Allies were killed1and wounded, without stating the number or locality.

    BERNE, SWrTZERLAND, June 3.-The federal an-thorities have been privately informed of the arrivalof the Duchess of Parma, Louise Marie, icognito ;her flight being actuated by the revolt of her subjectswho threw off their yoke and have joined the causeof Italian independence.

    Loxvno, June 4.-Dispatches from Milan via Vi-enna give the Austrian account of the bombardmentand capture of Varese, an important position be-tween Como and Lake Magglore. The Austrianswere commanded by General Urban, who succeeded,after a very heavy cannonade, in driving out the vol-unteers of Garabaldi, and entering the town.

    Gen. Urban issued a proclamation, In which heseverely reprimanded the inhabitants for their incon-stancy to the Emnperor Francis Joseph. To punishthem he ordered the levying of an exorbitant contri-bution of war in cash and provisions.

    Advices have been received at London to the effectthat the long expected insurrections in those territo-ries situated between the Adriatic and the Danubehave broken out.

    The whole of the Herzogovina is in open revolt,and have proclaimed their independence from theOttoman Porte.

    The same excitement prevails in Montenegro andother Provinc es.

    On account of this state of affairs, the Governm entof the Sultan has ordered the different garrisons in itsdominions to be reinforced.

    The garrison of Belgrade, on the Danube, (BIunga.rian frontier) has already been trebled.

    lBesides the formation of volunteer corps, under en-gagements of ten years, and the steady increase ofthe army of Paris, the Minister of War has orderedthe recall of French soldiers on leave, of all Dep art-ments throughout the Empire.

    The execution of this order will increase the army77,000.

    The active negotiations of Cardinal State SecretaryAntonelli have fully succeeded.

    The Allied Powers, after having recognized Francisthe Second as King of Naples, have consented to ac-knowledge the neutrality of the Papal States duringthe pending war.

    The excitement of the Germans, on the Rhine,against the French, since the formation of the armyof observation under Peleasier, has risen to such apitch that daily quarrels occur among the inhabitantso' the bordering states.

    Thus at Hesse Cassell some large manufacturerswere obliged to discharge large numbers of hands.SOver seven hundred French working men wereobliged to leave in one day.

    French engineers have arrived at Intra, on LakeMaggiore, in order to make the necoesary arrange-meats for providing vessels for the tranuportation oftroops accoss the Lake.

    A P•leraEsanT. -Last evening, says a late North-ern exchange, a handsome looking woman was passalug down West Water Street with a little basket ofeggs in her hand, and when a few yards from the Me-nomenee barn, was knocked down on the sidewalk.Her cries brought a gallant widower to the rescue,who saw to his horror a billy goat that evidently hada horn too much, doing his best to put an end to thepoor woman's misery. The widower tried to scarethe goat away, but he wouldn't be scared. He triedto help the lady op, when butt came the head of thegoat against himself, and two bulls together came,for the goat gave him another, and down he fellcroowise the lacy, to the serious damage of a dozenfresh eggs.

    "Help!" cried the man; "get olff of me, youvillain," said the injured female.

    " But, my good womn,"-soand butt went the roughhorn of the goat, and spoiled an eight dollar pair ofpants.

    SHelp !" cried the woman," my eggs!""Oh, my pants!" cried the man." But never mind the pants; get op !" cried the

    lady; and just as he was trying to -et up, butt camethe goat, and down came the man again.

    The cries of the two victims brought quite acrowd to the spot, where there lay the man-" twinmiseries pregnant with danger "-and there advauc-iog and retreating, bluting first one and then theother, oscillated the confounded goat. The last buttlllie made, one of his horns caught in the baske', andhe left the scene of action with the basket hangingover one eye, and the yolk of three or four eggs dri.zling down his magnilicent beard. The man backedoutuntil h yond the reach of the lady's eyes, whenhe turned and ran like a quarter-horse, swearing atall goats in general and this one in particular, whilethellady sat down and with a piece of shingle and afew pins, cleaned and repaired the badly damageddress.

    Mr. Wiliam Hanford, a young gentleman from Bos.ton, in a singularly dilapidated condition, set outsome days since for Chicago, and took passage by theErie canal. At Syracuse, finding himself weary andbenighted, he applied for a bed at the watchoose, andwan supplied for the evening with the upper side of aboard. to the morning he was brought before themagiItrate, who asked him, "Why did ynou not sleepon the busoat?"

    Hanford--" Got a cold in my eyes."Justice--" Did you like your lodgings in the watch.

    house?"Hanford--" No."Justice-" How soon do you intend to proceed on

    yourjourney ?"Hanford-" As soon as I can fnd the canal."Justice--" Here, officer, show this man to the

    canal, and tell him which way is west."- [Exeunt.

    Other acconnts estimate the French forces In thlsaction at folly 12,000. It In said that Gen. Foray'scoat was riddled with bullets.

    Private accoante say the real lma of the Frenchwas o000 to 1100 men.

    OFFrciso Bo.Lrs.INo.-The following are the efficial bulletins issued by the Sardinian Government :

    TuntI, May 26.-Three hundred An mrian Infantry,with one hundred and thirty cavalry a,4. two piecesof cannon, marched yesterday morning orm Galloa.cate to Sesto Calendi, but were met by a body ofChosseurs des Alps, under Captain de Christofores,who repulsed them, takiug several prisoners. Theenemy has retired to Somna.

    A message from Varese announces thatat 4 o'clockthi mbrning five thousand Austrians attacked Gen.Garihaldi's corps ; three hours Iiter the enemy wasrepulsed at Mal ..ate, on the road to Como. TheChasseurs d'Alps fought valiantly, charging theAustrians with the bayonet. The country roundVarese is in insnrrection. General Garibaldi is inpuroit of the retreating army.

    Today the Emperor went to Veroelli, accompaniedby Generals Vaillant and De Ia MIarmonra. His Me-jesty was received by the authorities, the clergy andpopulation, who saluted him with hearty plaudits.

    Germany.Accounts from toe southern States of Germany re-iterate the reports that the war excitement there wasI most intense. Explanations are said to have beendemanded respecting the passage of the Austriantroops throogh Bavarian territory.

    at the sitting of the Federal Diet, at Frankfort, onthe 26th, the Minor German states voted that in cer-1 tain eventualities, military measures should be taken.i Pru-ia claimed that in such cuase the lnitiatireshould

    be accorded to her.Reports continue to circulate that Prussia wouldcall ot the Landwebr on the 5th June.

    NArPLE.--It is said that all the powers, with theexception of France and Sardinia, had acknowledged,by telegraph, the new King of Naples. The King wasproclaimed at Caserta on Sunday the 22d, and thegarrison took the oath of allegiance the same day.Tihe garrison of Naples took the same oath on the25th. The capital was tranquil, but it was fearedhat Court intrigue might give rise to trouble. The

    King, confiding in his army, was making prepara-tions to uoppress any outbreak of a revolution de pa.lais. He had ordered the arrest of several suspectedpersons of distinction.

    In his proclamation announcing his accession tothe throne, the King avoids making any engagementsfor the future, and from announcing his opinion onthe Italian peninsular.

    The following dispatch has also been received atMr. Reuter's office :

    " MARSugILLS, Thursday, May 26."The steamer Vesuvio, which left Naples on the

    24th, has arrived here with a full complement of pasanoger, who have hurriedly qoitted Naples from fear

    of a collision, which appeared imminent there."The Court Is divided. The King, eonfiding In his

    army, is mkinug preparations to suppres any outbreakof a Revolation de Palais.

    " His lMajety has ordered the arrest of severalosuspected persons of distinction.

    " It is asserted that the King will declare for neu-trality.

    "tHis Mjoesty has received by telegraph reasuringcommunicatlons from the great powers.'

    Rome.Tun Swiss IrrITED TO REVOLT.-We learn from

    Rome, under date of the 21st instant, that active at-tempts have been made to induce the Swiss troops inthe service of the Pope to revolt. The following pro.clamation was distributed in the Swiss barracks :

    " Soldiers of the foreign regiments-Asetria, thesole cause of our slavery, is already enclosed in acircle by the invincible armies of France and Pied-mont. The people are rising In crowds to defendthe rights of Italy. Soldies, you have the choiceeither to reinforce the ranks of the Italian army orto return freely to your families. Soldiers I will yofight in defence of a tyrannical government ? You,the sons of William Tell, of noble France and Ger-many, of independent spirit! You, the children ofnations too generous to disgrace yourselves by suchignominious conduct! Recollect that your officersdeceived you when they induced you to- enlist withpromises they have never performed. You are thevictims-you are the instruments of brutal oppres.sion. Recollect that you have been treated not asmen, but as brutes. *Do not trust in your officers,who are actuated by the vilest motives. They wouldengage you in battle with a people who aspire to con-quer that which you enjoy Io your own country.They would force you intoan unjust contest by In-vokiog the honor of your flag ; but can there be honorwhere there is no josticel Moreover, what will itavail you to tight since France is with us? Follow,therefore, the example of your brother,who, in 1848,fought gloriously beside us, and mixed their bloodwith ours in the huhol cause of Italy. Soldiers, comethen to us; we will receive yen with open arms asbrothers, crying at the same time," Long live thesoldiers of the foreign regimental Italy for ever."

    VOTING EAr.Y.-A benighted Chesterfieldlan, afterthlree hours whipping over a ricketty road and In aricketty buggy, drove up to Chesterfield Coart-Houseon Thursday, and asked where the" polls" were, ashe desired to cast his vote for Honest John Letcher.He was incontinentally grinned at by several of thebystanders, and suddenly felt himself in the vocative,when one of them informed him that the election hadtranspired just a week before, and the consequencewas hlie " couldn't come it,': so he wheeled his horseand put out for homeagain, somewhat done for in theway of disappoinotment. It Iseaid that this man hasnever taken a newspaper and don't know what analmanac is. He keeps his account of the days andmonths by cutting them on a stick, but this time his"notches" didn't tell the troth by seven days. OhIwhat a commentary-it is oseless to say more.
