STRANGE CONDUCT IN A STATION-HOUSE.—Daniel
Cooper, a tall military-looking man, was brought before
Mr. Paget charged with breaking a pane of glass in the
Bow Poliee-ptation house.
John Knowles, a police-constable, No. 658 A, stated
that the prisoner was a hawker. Yesterday -afternoon ho

brought a basket of oranges into the station, and asked

him to purchase somo. He told him he did nut want any,
ou which the prisoner, who was drunk and made a good
deal of noise, said he was determined to bo locked up and
threw an orange at the windoW. It wont through a pane
of glass. He locked up the prisoner in a cell, and soon
afterwards ho asked for water which was given to him,
but instead of drinking it he threw it in his face.
The prisoner said he was very sorry Ifor what he had
done. He was formerly a horse soldier. He was in the
2d Dragoon Guards four years, and discharged with a good
character. He met two comrades from India yesterday,
and they gave him some liquor to which ho was not
accustomed.

Mr. Paget dealt mercifully with the prisoner by fining
him Is. only, and is. the value of the pane of glass which
he paid.
SAVAGE ASSAULT BY A HUSBAND ON HIS WIFE.
William Bartlett, an iron moulder, was brought before Mr.
Paget, charged with assaulting his wife.
The parties have been living in Featherstone-buildings,
Limehouse. Their dissensions have been under the notice
of the magistrates several times. Tho husband has been
represented as a very brutal fellow, and the wife to bo ♦ery
"long-tongued," and so irritable. Tho prisoner was sen-
tenced to a month's imprisonment and hard labour for
boating his wife in August, 1864. They have separated
and renewed cohabitation repeatedly since that time. Last
night, after a separation of several weeks, they met at a
publichouse, went home to their lodgings, and the prisoner
commenced boating his wife, twisted her arm, and at-
tempted to break it. In the struggle which took place
between them the prisoner knocked his wife about shame-
fully, and hit her on the breast and on the arm. She ad-
mitted having scratched his face for protection and in self-
defence. _ _ _

The prisoner said his wife was a very wicked old woman,
and that she came to his club-room last night, and pro-
mised to behave well. Directly she reached home she
abused him and scratched his face.

'Mr. Paget said the prisoner had exercised a good deal of
violence on his wife, and her "long tongue," as it was
styled, did not justify it. He sentenced the prisoner to one
month's imprisonment and hard labour.

DECLARATION OF WAR BETWEEN

ITALY AND AUS MIA.

FLORENCE, June 20.
The Italian military declaration of war against
Austria has been issued to-day from the head-
quarters of the army at Cremona. It bears date this
day, and is addressed by General Cialdini, chief of
de general staff of the Italian army, to the Arch-
e commanding the Austrian army in
Venetia. The declaration says :
Past the
"The Empire of Austria has been for centuries
principal cause of the division, the subjec-
tion, and the incalculable moral and material
wrongs of Italy. Now that the nation is constituted,
Austria withholds recognition, and continues to op-
press one of our noblest provinces, transforming it
t° a vast entrenched camp, in order to menace our
existence.

" The counsels and efforts of the friendly Powers
With Austria were useless, and it was inevitable that
i'oustria and Italy should again find themselves face
face in the first European complication.
The initiative taken by Austria in armaments,
and her rejection of the pacific propositions of the
neutral Powers, proved her hostile designs. The peo-
ple of Italy have risen up from one extremity of the
peninsula to the other, and it is for these reasons
that „ the King, the guardian of his people's rights,
r
and the defender of the integrity of the national
teritory,
declares war to the Empire of Austria.
" I notify to your Imperial Highness the order of
thee King, that hostilities will commence within
e days hence, unless your highness does not ac-
ee Pt this delay, in which case I beg you to be good
enough
toinform me to that effect."

Prussia now openly substitutes violence for right. Prussia

has no longer considered the right and honour of Austria,
the rigkt and honour of the entire German nation, as a
check upon her fatally increased ambition. Prussian troops
entered Holstein ; the Estates convoked by the imperial
Governor were dispersed by force ; the governing authority
in Holstein, bestowed upon Austria and Prussia in com-
mon by the Vienna Peace Treaty, was exclusively claimed
by Prussia alone ; and the Austrian garrison was forced to
give way to a tenfold superiorforce. When the Germanic
Diet, recognising in this conduct arbitrary proceedings
contrary to treaty, decrOed the mobilisation of the Federal
troops upon the motion of Austria, Prussia, so ready to
boast herself the upholder of German interests, then com-
pleted the destructive course upon which she had entered.
Tearing asunder the national ties of the Germans, she de-
clared her secession from the Confederation, demanded of
the German Governments the acceptance of a so-called
project of reform which carries into effect the division of
Germany, and proceeded with military force against those
tos
Sovereigns who remained faithful to the Confectl)f Germans
Confederation.

readiness is shown to make sacrifices in hastening to alle-

wants of the army. One feeling alone pervades the inha-

of strength in unity of indignation at so unprecedented a

3IARLBOROUGH-STREET.

AN IMPOSTOR.—Chas. Pennington, described as a clerk,
was charged as follows :

Mr. Reginald B. York, a gentleman residing at No. 45
St. James's-place, said—Last night, about 20 minutes past
11, I was passing through Trafalgar-square on my way
home from tho Adelphi Theatre, when the prisoner came
up to me and told me a story to the effect that he had just
come from Canada, that he was in groat distress, having
had nothing to eat for some days, but that he was in ex-
pectation of receiving remittance through a banker. I re-
cognised the prisoner as a man who had begged of me
several times, and remember that on ono occasion he told
me that he had come from Hell, and I then gave him a
shilling. I allowed the prisoner to follow me till I came
to a policeman, and then gave him into custody, and should
have done so a few nights ago, but he succeeded in giving
me the slip.

Bernard Campbell, 209 C—On taking the prisoner into
custody he denied begging.
Prisoner—l did speak to the gentleman, but I did not
ask for anything. I said I was in a painful position, and
ho talked to me till we got near a constable, and he then
seized me and gave mo into custody.
Mr. Knox—l shall commit the prisoner for a month, and
if he comes here again he will go for a longer term.

STATE OF TRADE.

LEICESTER, June 20.—The hosiery trade in most
departments has been, on the whole, rather quiet
during the past few days. The Continental war
and the high rate of discounts check trade to a con-
siderable extent. In the country districts business
remains without much change. Wools are very
quiet, and prices are irregular. There is a fair
amount of business doing in cotton yarns at recent
currencies. Worsted yarns are a dull sale, and
spinners make only to order.

NOTTINGHAM, 20th.—There has been less doing
in lace goods for shipping during the past few days
than for some time past. The outbreak of hosti-
lities on the Continent is acting very prejudicially
to the German branch of the Nottingham trade, and
several merchants here aro experiencing great in-
convenience, one firm, which has an establishment
at Leipsic, having received intelligence from that
place announcing that their premises had been
taken for barracks for the Prussian soldiery, and
that it would be necessary to suspend, as far as pos-
sible, their business engagements in Nottingham.
From Saxony, also, intelligence has arrived that a
hosiery manufactory there (connected with the Not-
tingham trade) was likely to be required for mili-
tary purposes, and that owing to the stoppage of
all traffic on the railways, which had been taken
possession of by the authorities, it would be impos-
sible to despatch any more goods. There is a little
doing for France. The home trade continues quiet,
plain silk Meehlins being almost the only class of
goods at present required. There is no improve-
ment in the demand for narrow edgings, and black
laces do not meet with a free inquiry. The hosiery
trade is not so active as it has been of late. There
are, however, some good orders on hand, and the
workpeople are well employed. Yarns are selling
at late rates.

[ApvEnTlSEMENT.J—lfolloway's Pills and Ointment.—
Physical S treng th.— For the proper development and
nourishment of the human body it is essential that the
functions of the stomach, liver, kidneys, and bowels bo
performed with order and regularity. Holloway's remedies
readily insure both. The powers of the stomach are greatly
augmented and good gastric juico secreted in abundance
when this ointment is diligently rubbed twice a day over
the pit of the stomach. The pills and ointment enable it
to extract all the food's nutritive matter, and to thoroughly
digest most articles of diet. Holloway's preparations not
only preserve the frame from a wear and tear," but stimu-
late it to store up nervous energy, as necessary to vitality
as the mainspring to a watch.

WIRT OF BANKRUPTCY.

IN RB SIR CULLING EARDLEY GIDEON RABBLE; BART.
This case, which has been before the court for some time,
has now assumed a somewhat singular aspect. To-day
was appointed for the adjourned examination and order of
discharge, but no accounts have been filed. The bank-
rupt has chiely resided abroad, but ho surrendered to his
bankruptcy, and more than one lengthy private examina-
tion has been held before the registrar. Upon the last
occasion, when the bankrupt should have attended
to bo examined before the Oommissioner he did not sur-
render, and it then transpired that he had been arrested
in B
andthe
wasinprison for debt. To-day Mr. Bury
defendant,Hutchinson, said that the bankrupt had
obtained
11fo
his release from custody, but had been again
ul o g
arrested, It was contended under those circumstances by
the assignees that the case ought to be adjourned sine die.
It further transpired that there were certain important
Chancery preeeedings in fisturoland his honour formally
adjourned the case sine die with protection for two months.

THE SUN, LONDON, THURSDAY EVENING, JUNE 21, 1866.

troops crossed the Saxon frontier and began their
advance towards Dresden.

A large body of the army which advanced into
Saxony passed by Strehla on the Elbe, and pushed
forward in the direction of Riesa, the point of junc-
tion of the lines of railway which lead from Dresden
to Berlin, and from Leipsic and Chemnitz to Dres-
den, Bautzen, and Zittau. As the advanced guard
approached Riesa the wooden railway bridge on
which the line from Leipsic to Dresden crosses the
Elbe was blown up by the Saxons. This did not,
however, much impede the advance, for the Prus-
sians took possession of Riesa, and pushed their co-
lumns forward in two directions towards Dresden to
the front and towards Leipsic and Grossenheim on
either flank. The object of this lateral movement is
to gain possession of the line of railway which, run-
ning east and west through Saxony, would be of
great use to the enemy for purposes of concentra-
tion, if allowed to remain in their hands. Its posses-
sion does not give much advantage to the Prussians,
for the retiring Saxons have in many places torn up
the rails, and have cut the telegraph wires.
On the western side of the theatre of war the
Prussian troops have advanced from Minden and
Holstein against Hanover, and from Wetzlar against
Electoral Hesse, so that with the exception of the
second army in Silesia under the Crown Prince, all
the Prussian troops in the field have been put in
motion almost simultaneously.
Gen. Manteuffel, the late commander in Schles-
wig, is to have, it is supposed, the command of the
Prussian corps in Hanover.

At the same time, as an advance was made in
Saxony from Strehla, another body of Prussians
crossed the frontier from the direction of this town,
where the headquarters of Prince Frederic Charles
were yesterday established. A part of them entered
the Saxon town of Lobau, whichthey found without
a garrison. The railway bridge here was not blown
up, although it had been mined. The lines of the
railway were, however, torn up and laid in confu-
sion on the way. The Prussian commander imme-
diately employed the country people to restore the
railway, and they appear to have entered upon the
work with great alacrity and goodwill. Near Baut-
zen the line was also broken, and here also it is
being rapidly repaired.
Prince Frederick Charles at the same time as his
troops advanced issued a proclamation to the people
of Saxony to the effect that the King of Prussia had
found himself compelled to make war against the
Saxon Government, but that it was not intended
that the effects of the war should fall on the people ;
on the contrary, that all private property would be
strictly respected, and that no peaceful inhabitant
would be disturbed.

A report which has reached this town of a skir-
mish between a Prussian brigade and some Saxon
troops near Bautzen appears to be without founda-
tion. The Austrian war manifesto has just been re-
ceived here, and has called forth an extra sheet of
the local paper.

FLORENCE, June 21.

King Victor Emmanuel set out for the camp at
5 o'clock this morning. His Majesty received a
most enthusiastic ovation from the whole popula-
tion of Florence on his way from the palace to the
railway station. The National Guard was drawn
up under arms to salute him, and at the railway
station the foreign diplomatic body, the authorities
of Florence, and deputations from both houses of
Legislature were present in order to express their
good wishes to his Majesty upon his departure.
The city of Florence is decorated with flags in
rejoicing for the declaration of war.
The Prince of Carignan arrived here last night,
and was received by the authorities at the station.
He was enthusiastically cheered by the people.
The Italie announces that the King received M.

PARIS, June 21.

The Constitutionnel of this morning points out
the pacific, sense of the Emperor's letter to M.
Drouyn de Lhuys. Peace, it continues, has the
preference and the best wishes of the Emperor, and
his hopes must be also on that side, for after having
positively declared that France would not engage in
war except under a decisive state of things, he has
grounds to believe that none of the belligerents will
desire to assume the responsibility of provoking it
by creating such a position of affairs.
The Moniteur of this morning says :-" The
latest intelligence received announces that the public
health in Alexandria and throughout Egypt is ex-
cellent.

BEBELLION IN CHINA.

Col. SYKES asked the Under Secretary for Foreign
Affairs, whether reports or despatches had been received
from Consul Meadows, at Newchang, respecting the ap-
proach of rebels in December last, also from Consul Med-
burst, at Hankow, mentioning the proximity of a large
rebel force, and detailing the mea ures adopted for the
protection of British property; and whether the Consuls
had suggested to the British Government any and what
measures for the future safety of the foreign settlements in
China?

Mr. LAYARD said the consul at Newchang appeared to
be labouring under some false alarm, as nothing of the kind
that he anticipated had occurred. There was no reason to
believe that 80,000 rebels intended to attack the place, for
instead of that number eight men had been discovered on
horseback outside the city, each of whom carried a bag.
A few shots were fired, when the men galloped off, leaving
their bags behind, which were found to contain eight
women. Since that there had been no further attack.
(Laughter.) He had the satisfaction of informing the hon.
and gallant gentleman that, by the last advices, his old
friend Taeping had been thoroughly exterminated. He
had not received the notification alluded to.
