Salt diplomatic rupture between Austria and
14, Inia is now complete. As Austria will doubt-
tow think it beneath her to take the initiative
ta:ltCle a reconciliation, and as Sardinia is cer
eid,Ynot disposed to make advances, if we may
eeti^e, front the present disposition of the Govern-
tern:. and the Chambers, matters will probably
k4i'ln in ;he same state for some time to come ;

increases daily; and it is not surprising that such
is the case, as every now and then offensive remarks
that have been made by the Russian colony at
Nice find their way to this city.
The Weiner Zeitung of this morning contains
the concession granted by this Government to 23
nobles and gentlemen to eonstruct the following
lines of railroad :—A. From Lemberg to Przemysl,
where it will join the Northern Railroad. B. From
Lemberg, to Brody on the Russian frontier. C.
From Lemberg, in a southerly direction, on the
right bank of the Dniester, to Cznnovitz, and
thence to the Moldavian frontier. 1). The State
pleiges itself not to permit any other company
to construct a railway on the right bank of
the Dniester, from Przemysl -to Czerno-
vitz, unless it agree to touch at new points,
important in a strategic, political, or commercial
point of view. As the particulars connected with
the East Gallician Railroad were communicated to
you some months ago, but little need now be said
on the subject. The capital of the company is
55,000,000f1. Government guarantees 5 per cent.
interest, and one fifth per cent. towards the sinking
fund. It is a well known fact that goods and not
passengers make a railroad pay well, and it is,
therefore, to be supposed that the Gallician
railroad will ultimately be as profitable as the
Northern railway. One immense advantage which
the Gallician and Theiss railways have over the
line between Vienna and Salsburg is, that the
former are allowed to charge for goods 1:1-,It per
cwt. and German mile, and the latter only lk. A
Belgian company wishes to obtain a eoncesaion for
a railroad in the Zips, a county in Northern
Hungary; but the Emperor a few days since
declared his resolve not to sign any new concessions
for some time to come. The concession granted
to the founders of the East Gallician Railroad
Company is for the term of ninety years.
itlAustrian statesmen have always had the very
bad habit of declaring beforehand that they will
never consent to this, that, or the other measure,
and the same language was long employed when
ever the question of the union or non-union
of the Danubian Principalities was discussed ;
but recently a more judicious line of conduct
has been adopted. People speak less positively,
and Austria will hardly object to anything but
a territorial and political union of the two Princi-
palities. Monsieur George Petrovitch, the Pre-
sident of the Montenegrin Senate, has had more
than one interview with Count Buol, but it is by no
means clear to me that he is not the champion of
the Russian party in Montenegro, M. G. Petro-
vitch, who is a man of about 60, was formerly an
officer in the Russian army. Not long before he
quitted Montenegro Prince Daniel gave orders to
the Archimandrite of Cettinye no longer to pray
publicly for the Czar, and the old Montenegrin or
Russian party is resolved if possible, to have a
Vladilta dependent on Novogorod instead of a
temporary Prince .
Count Paar arrived here from Turin yesterday
evening.

PRUSSIA.

worse. On the one side the proprietors raise
their rents every time the yearly contract is
expired, till house rent is now from 40 to 80 and
100 per cent dearer than it was five or six
years back; and on the other side, the unhappy
parents of blooming children find themselves
every where turned out because they `• have their
quivers full of them." The proprietors of houses
are impressed with the unamiable belief that the
presence. of children living in a house tends to
diminish the attraction of the dwelling to the other
inmates, and thus on every occasion the owners of
these live appendages receive notice to quit, so that
even where they have the means and the will to pay
they fall into the class of the housless destitute.
The workhouses and other refuges generally receive
a large accession of company at the turn of the
quarter, from the mere impossibility of the outs
converting themselves into ins rapidly enough, and
this quarter the Government has found itself
obliged to put some empty barracks at the service
of the lodging-seeking population, and thus afford
them shelter, for which, however, they pay dear
enough, until they can find house room till next
quarter day_ Unfortunately, rent is not the only
necessary of life in Berlin that is enhanced in price
of late. All articles of. food and consumption are
from 15 to 40 per cent. dearer than five years ago,
while all articles of wearing apparel are dearer than
in England, without being nearly so good.

AMERICA.

ARRIVAL OF THE AMERICA.

The Cunard steamer America arrived here last
evening, with forty-five passengers, and Boston
dates to the 25th March. She passed the United
States mail steamer Ericsson on the 4th instant,
at nine a m., in lat. 50 45 N., lon. 16 49 \V
The Africa arrived at New York on the 24th ult.
The news to hand is four days later than our
previous intelligence.
Governor Geary had arrived at Washington, and
tendered his resignation to the Cabinet. It bad
been accepted, and a new governor would be
appointed immediately. When the resignation was
received, it was the full determination of Mr.
Buchanan to urge his retention of the responsible
post he has filled so ably, and, if necessary, to
grant him carte blanche for the future, in addition
to recognising and indorsing his past acts. Since.
however, it had become apparent that Mr. Geary's
desire to be relieved was peremptory, a new line
of policy had become indispensable.
The impression prevails, even among his warmest
friends, that he has committed a great mistake in
appealing to the people, as he has done adversely,
by implication, to the central government, without
first knowing what course would be new taken by
the latter upon those points which were left
undecided by President Pierce, It has been, in
fact, says the New York Times, " an abandonment
of, the post of danger in the hour of the greatest
need, and was, to say the least, ill timed. The
American people will scarcely recognise it as a
sufficient motive for a fugitive resignation, that the
life of the Governor was in danger ; nor that he

had expended a certain amount of money from
his own pocket ; nor that he was displeased at a
want of promptness in acquiescing to his reasonable

wishes.

Governor Geary gives the most glowing account
of the material prosperity of Kansas, and of its
apparent future prospects. Apparent, because he
seems to think that a reaction may take place

before long, from the present excited feeling, in
relation to what may be made of the territory.
Ho says, however, that there is no security what.
ever there for either life or property, and that the
office of governor is literally paralyzed, for want
of a proper judiciary. Ho does not censure the
Federal Government at Washington for this state

of things ; but maintains strenuously that the
power of Congress and the President must ulti-
mately be exercised to remedy the evils which
exist. By a recent act of the legislature all crimes
are bailable. As a consequence, no judge cares to
issue a mandqte, and if he does it is disregarded.

Ruffians who have committed murder, arson, or
highway robbery, walk the streets of Leavenworth
and Lecompton with perfect impunity, and no one
ever dreams that they will ever suffer the punish-
ment their actions deserve. The Buffum elq°

brought matters to a head, as far as the governor
was concerned, hut it neither stands alone, nor is it
of more importance than many others.
We have intelligence of a late date from Kansas.
The Topeka correspondent of a St. Louis paper
says :
The Kansas Free State Convention was in session at
that place on the 10th and 11th inst., C. F. Currier
presiding. The committee on the platform reported a series
of resolutions—stating that the eeople of the territory
cannot participate in the election called under the pro
slavery constitutional convention act, without compromising
their rights as American citizens, and jeopardising the
public peace ; that the Topeka constitution is still the
choice of a majority of the citizens of the territory, and
they urge upon Congress the immediate admission of
Kansas as a state under that constitution ; that peaceful
relations between all its citizens are regarded as indispens-
able to the welfare of the people of the territory, and they
urgently appeal to all men to submit all differences of
opinion growing out of the question of its domestic institu-
tions to the ballot box, provided that any attempt to abridge
or impair the freedom of speech or of the ballot box, shall
be held as just cause for departure from this policy ; that
no tests shall be made for membership of the Free State
party, save the exclusion of slavery from Kansas ; and,
finally, that they are inflexibly determined to abide by the
principles of/quality and squatter sovereignty as enunciated
in the Kansas Nebraska hill.
It is stated that positive information has been
received at Washington, to the effect that Brigham
Young and his crew have burned the United States
archieves, Court records, Sze , in Utah Territory,
and that they have demanded the appointment of
one of two schedules- of Federal officers, both
headed by Brigham Young for Governor, with the
avowal of the purpose of driving any other out of
the territory by force of arms.
The miscellaneous advices from the States are not
of the least moment.

York—Delvin, Rogers, Thompson and Blake— had
been found guilty and sentenced, the first to three
years, and the others to two years each, in the New
Jersey State Prison.
We have advices from Bermuda to the 10th
March. The Gaxette of that date contains the
Governor's speech, on the opening of Parliament.
He congratulates the Colony oa " the total cessa
tion of the epidemic which prevailed in every por-
tion of the Islands (except the Town and Parish
of St, George) with more or less severity, though
ordinarily in a mitigated form, during the last
four or five months of the year just terminated."
We have intelligence from Havannah to the 15th
of March. Guano of good quality and inexhausti-
ble quantities has been discovered on the islands
on the south side of Cuba. The commissioners
appointed by General Concha reported by tele-
graph from Trinidad favourably as to quantity and
quality. They were accompanied by Captain
Green, the discoverer. The islands are to be
immediately opened to the commercial world.
There is nothing new from Nicaragua, but the
New York papers were commenting on the state of
Walker's affairs. The New York Times says :
The intolerable cruelties and butcheries practised upon
deserters, who are shot down on the run, dragged into
camp, and finished by a brief and sullen order from the
chief, are confirmed by universal report. By an examination
of the reports of the adjutant general of the fillibuster army,
we find recorded about three hundred desertions ; to these
it is necessary to add at least as many more not in the rank
and file, who have escaped without passports. On the
other hand, only 181 officers and men are " reported"
killed in action. All deserters and runaways, when
overtagen, are shot down, and if not killed on the spot,
are brought in and put to death by a brief order—
no exceptions made or favour shown. Wholesale
butchery of one's own countrymen appear: to us a crime
above homicide or manslaughter. Not even the tyrant's
plea of necessity will justify it, as its fruits are chiefly
hated and contempt. Sickly sentimentalists may
admire the beauty of the flame that burns their houses ;
common sense abhors it. Then, however, there is not
even the clear flame of victory, but only a smouldering,
sickening smoke of error, falsehood, and defeat. The
boasted " fatality" of the Nicaraguan war is twin sister
to the gloomy fate of the Sonora expedition. Destiny,
without strength or wisdom, is only doom.

CONIMERCIAL INTELLTGENCE.
NEW YORZ, March 24.

MONETARY AFFAIRS.—There is no striking change to
notice in our market. Meney is easier than it was last
week. Nevertheless, the continuance of large importa-
tions and the gradual accumulation of specie in the
Sub-treasury, contribute to prevent the stock market
from experiencing a sensible improvement. A failure of
some importance in the foreign manufacturing trade has
also prod iced some uneasiness in this branch. The
shares of the Illinois Central Railroad are an exception
to the rest of the list, and on the announcement of an
intended increase of the capital stock of the company
by 8,500,000 dols, they fell rapidly from 13,7 to 1281, and
closed at 1311. State stocks, Missouri 6s , continue very
active, and have slight), risen ; 89,000 dols of these were
bought by the State Auditor for the sinking fund. North
Carolina 65 have also been done at a shade deeli," California
7s of 1875 and 1870, after having fallen from 1 to 2 per cent,
closed at 63 to 64, City 13.mds—Some Milwaukee 7s and
Chicago 6s have been done at well sustained prices. A slight
demand for San Francisco 10s and tis has been manifested,
without producing any change in quotations. Money—The
demand is not as active as last week; it is, nevertheless, well
sustainel at 7 per cent for loans, on call. Rather less paper

offered, at from 9to 12 per cent. Exchange on London dull
at 1081 to 108,1.
COTTON : In this market a fair demand has prevailed, and
parcels of store cotton, of a desirable style, have been readily
disposed of. The sales are estimated at 6,000 bales. My
quotations are advanced an -,lc per lb, at which the market
yesterday closed very firmly, and with a smaller amount
offering than for some time past: The export for the week
has been—to Liverpool, 3,602 ; Havre, 203 ; Antwerp, 854;
hamburg, 1,497 ; Bremen, 378. Total, 6 534 bales.
COTTON IN TRANsITU : There has been more enquiry
during the past week, and all the desirable parcels have been
picked up. Holders since the sailing of the Persia have
offered less freely, and we close the week with a reduced
stock and prices up to the highest point of the season. I
quote on the basis of id freight, middling Orleans, strict,
131 ; middling, 131 ; low middling, 127 to 13c. (rod
ordinary, 12-1 to 12 ; ordinary, 12c. Mobiles, owing to their
superior cleanliness, about the same, and Uplands, with freight
Zd, to le lower. 'llia sales for the week I estimate at 10,000

_
bales.
Southern markets have been firm during the week
under review, and by telegraph the advices are of advance,
with a strong upward tendency.
New Orleans, March 21.—Receipts for the week,
33,000 bales ; same week last year, 53,000 bales ; sales
to day, 3,500, and for the week, 41,000 bales ; exports for
the week, to Liverpool 26,000, to Havre 5,500; decrease
in receipts at this port, 55,000 ; total decrease at all the
ports, by our table to day, 222,000 ; middling, 131,-c to
Inc per Ib ; freight to Liverpool, 5-16 to 37,-(1 per lb.
Mobile, March 21.—Receipts foit the week, 3,400 bales;
same week last year, 16 000 sales for the week, 15,000 ;
exports to Liver 0., for the week, 11,000 ; tstock unsold,
40,000 ; middling, firm at 13Ze to 13tc per lb ; freight.
to Liverpool, 5 16d : current estimate o, crop, 3,000,000
CROP : Whatever doubts may have existed in the minds
of many operators in cotton in Liverpool and Manchester,
as to the correctness of the estimate advocated by me
throughout the whole season, must, I think, give way
before the facts as to the receipts advised by this mail.
At whatever point examination is made of the supply
vet to arrive, the result is the same, and I am satisfied the
-decline in the receipts at each port is from sheer exhaus-
tion ; the great bulk of the crop is marketed, and the
total must result in less than 3,000,000 bales.
RECEIPTS at the ports for the week are 67,000 bales,
against 109,000 same week last year, and 79,000 same
week in 1853. The total deficit at all the ports cornpa-ed
with last year, now amounts to 202,000 bales, and 163,000
bales as compared with 1853. By telegraph we have the
receipts from Mobile and New Orleans for a week later,
from which it is pretty certain that we shall make the
total deficit in my next week's table very near 250,000
bales. This rapid reduction in receipts fully justifies the
opinion I have expressed, that the inducements and
facilities for hurrying the crop to market base exceeded
those of any previo 's year, and must satisfy every one
that the season will be brought to a close much earlier
than usual.
- .

STOCK.—The amount now cn hand in this country is
40,000 bales less than at the corresponding period last year,
and this will undergo a rapid reduction.
