.The information received from Berlin to the 27th ult.
is rather more satisfactory as to the question of peace or
war. Explanatory despatches had been received from
Vienna. The prevailing impression was that these de-
spatches went far to settle the question of Hesse, but
that grave difficulties remained on the Holstein question.
On that question the Austrian ambassador has delivered
an ultimatum, in which Austria insists on an instant
compliance or war. Baron 14fanteuffel has, however,
succeeded in foiling the ultimatum, by entering into
direct communication with Prince Schwartzenberg. He
has left Berlin for Oldenberg, where he will meet the
Austrian premier, and hopes to settle both the Hesse and
Holstein questions, and likewise to discuss the leading
features of a constitution for Germany. The funds had
slightly improved.
A FRENCH TRAGEDY. Great sensation has been
mused in the department of the Charente by the arrest
last week of the Countess du S— and of the cure of the
commune of St. Germain, on the charge of having poi-
soned the servant of the latter, in order to prevent her
from revealing the adulterous connexion which existed
between them. The body of the servant, which the cure
lad caused to be buried with great haste, has been dug up
and poison discovered in it. When the Count du S—,

commit suicide, and should make their child, aged eight,
die with them. The Countess consented. A pan of
charcoal was lighted, and the three fastened themselves in
a eose room. 'When, however, the father saw his son
struggling in the agonies of death, his courage failed him,
and he broke the window for air. Medical assistance
having been promptly afforded, all three recovered. The
Countess and her clerical paramour were lodged in the
gaol of Anemileme, to await their trial for the alleged
murder.—Galignani's Messenger. _ .

MURDER i s NEW Yorac: A brutal murder has
been perpetrated at New York, in the dwelling of Mr.
Charles R. Rousson, porter-house, Day-street. A Swede,
named Henry Carnal, who had been slightly acquainted
with Mr. Rousson and his sons, called upon them in a
very distressed condition, apparently for want of funds,
and Mr. Rousson gave
.him a dinner, and, when night
came, also gave him a bed, with his two sips, Charles and
Lewis. About half-past three o'clock in the morning,
while all in the house were soundly sleeping, Carnal rose
and plunged a dirk knife into theneck and side of Charles,
inflicting two frightful wounds, and then attacked Lewis
with the same weapon, giving a deep gash in the abdomen.
By this time the father was aroused by the shrieks of Ins
sons, and when hastening into the room where they were,
the assassin met him, and with a powerful thrust and gash
cut his throat from ear to ear. Carnal then ran to the
rear of the house and jumped out of the window to
escape. hut, fortunately for the community, he fell into a
deep area, and injured himself so severely that he could
mot get out, and was found there by the police. The
father of the two wounded men, when he received the
deadly blow from the hands of Carnal, instantly ran into
the street, followee by his son Varies, who caught him
in his arms. Mr. Rousson only lived about a quarter of
an hour, and his wounded sons were taken to the third
ward station-house. Charles may recover, but Lewis
cannot, and his injuries are internal and very dangerous.
Tile object of Carnal was to get hold of a sum of money
which he knew the inmates had in their possession. The
prisoner, when arrested, denied that he had committed
the deed, and said he was also attacked.
THE ROMAN REPUBLIC.—The members of the Roman
republic—Mazzini and four others—have addressed an
appeal to the French assembly, from which we make the
follcwinis extract. Alluding to the entry into Rome of
the French soldiers, they say :—" They entered to re-
establish public order, disturbed by what you call a fac-
tion, to assure to the Roman population good governminit
and true liberty. Such were your promises, attested in
your latest dispatches, repeated at the tribune, recorded
an a dictatorAl, almost menacing, letter of the Pres:dent

of France. ,And the very shadow.efalberty has disap-
peared. Rome is in the hands despotic clerical
government. .cPius IX. has renewed the tradition of
GregorY. XVI. We said to you then—gentlemen, you
are deceived. "The faction is Rovoe,ani the whole popu-
