Zeitung, July 9.

RUSSIA.

he cholera appears to rage with great intensity
at Moscow. From the 12th to the 19th of June
there were 1,724 new cases and 728 deaths. On the
last named day no less than 327 persons were seized
with the dreadful malady, and 153 others died. Thd
cholera is gaining ground at Kasan, Nigi, NOO-
- Kostoma, Jarosla, Wologda, Smolensk°,
Toula, and Kalma. It has also made its appearance
at Pensa, Twer, Tarkow, Olonetz, Witbka, And
Orsa.

The Aix•la-Chapelle Gazette contains news from
St. Petershurgh, received by way of Berlin. The
capital of the Russian empire had been the scene of
a certain agitation produced by the ravages of the
cholera. The patients conveyed to the hospitals died
so soon that the people imagined the fountains had
been poisoned. Crowds assembled in the streets
in a menacing manner, and seemed disposed
to attack the cholera hospitals. The troops
were called out, and cannon pointed in the
streets and squares. The EMPEROR was be-
having admirably amidst the general desolation-
He daily visited the hospitals wherever the danger
was greatest. A cigar manufacturer having been so
ill-treated by the people, who accused him of being
a poisoner, that he died in consequence, the Elt7
PEROR caused three of the ruffians to be knouted oQ
the market-place, where the crime had been cow
mitted, and sentenced to serve in the army for life.
The EMPEROR addressed the people, and threatened
the severest penalties to those who should be guilty
of similar acts.

These events, greatly exaggerated, had given rise
to the absurd reports, lately circulated, respecting $ll
insurrection in St. Petersburgh.

L OMB ARD Y.
Marshal RADETZKY has published the following
bulletin :

" Head-quarters, Verona, July 5.
" The position of our army continues the same, and
just now there is no change in the movements of the
enemy opposite to me.

" The King stands with about 30,000 men of his army
betwe€n Villa Franca and Roverbilla, where he still has
his head quarters, and appears, by fortifications and bar'
ricades, to be securing that place against attack.
"Yesterday afternoon, after two days efforts, and cut-
ting a passage through the rock, the half of an eighteen'
pounder battery was drawn by oxen to the highest point
of Monte•Rastello, which commands the Chiusa and the
plateau of Rivoli. This battery immediately silenced
two of the enemy's guns, which, from the lower stun'
mits of the rocks above Chiusa, on that side of the
river, had played upon our pickets on this side, killing
one man, and severely wounding an artilleryman of the
rocket battery.

(signed) "RADETZKY, F. M."
RADETZKY, it is said, expects to receive large re-
inforcements from Vienna, and on their arrival he
will immediately undertake offensive operations.
The Piedmontese hold Rivoli and other strong positions on the right bank of the Mige, which .
command the road from Tyrol to Verona, hut have
been driven from Dolce and Ceraino on the left bank.
The Risorgimento of Turin, of the 10th, states
that the Archbishop of Milan has offered the Govern'
ment a part of the silver utensils belonging to the
churches as a loan to be employed in the support of
the poor, the wounded, and other beneficent acts. He
has addressed a circular for this purpose to the curate'
of his diocese. The Provisional Government of Loin'
hardy have addressed their thanks to the Archbishop ,
for his patriotic offer. Advices from Venice pats
that that city is well provided, that the sea is open,
and that she has seventy armed vessels and one thou-
sand cannon at her disposal. Pere has all his troops
under arms, and ready to march at the first signal
from the Piedmontese. A great battle is in preps
ration to retrieve the time that has been lost. A
rumour was also current of proposals of peace from
Austria, who would consent to give up Venice, Lom-
bardy, and the Italian Tyrol, on the condition of im-
posing 400,000,000 of her debt upon Italy.
CHARLES-ALBERT has taken Schio, and the Duke
of GENOA is said to have entered Roveredo.
Advices from Modena announce that a part
of the Piedmontese army has crossed the
Po to enter the Venetian territory by Ferrara ;
5,000 Piedmontese, with a fine park of artillery, had
arrived at Cremona on the 29th ult., and Lombard
troops were continually arriving. General GARP
BALDI arrived at Piacenza on the Bd, whence he left
for the Italian camp. General Zuccui arrived at
Bologna on the 6th. The preparations for the attack
upon Verona continue. The Austrians made a sally'
on the night of the sth towards Villafranca, to de-
stroy the enemy's works, but were repulsed.
It was stated at Roverbella on the 4th of July, that
a serious battle had taken place at Bardolino, but the
result had not been ascertained.

_AIISOLEUM.—On the farm of Tullich, in
.he immediate vicinity of Loch Carron, and in a part of
it called the Edracharron Moss, there stands a circular
mound, or tumuli, of considerable extent. People often
wondered what motive had induced the collection of such
a large cairn in such a place, but none had the curiosity
to explore it. until the other day the farmer had it pene-
trated for the purpose of obtaining stones to fill up some
of his farm drains. All at once the sacred nature of the
mound became manifest; and it appears to have been the
burial-place of chieftains or persons of distinction. IS
contains stone coffins constructed with great care, and
placed at equal distances from each other, in which the
skeletons are quite visible, although much decayed. IC
is singular that there is no tradition which alludes to this
place of sepulture. The Bags of which the coffins are
,made must have been conveyed by sea.—lnveraiss Couriff•
