He it the opinion of the dipomas in Vienna that
the Austrian government withheld the dispatches announe
ing this victory, account of the jealousy with which il
views the Russian advances the Court the Emperor
Of Austria viewing the Russians more dangerous
than the Huns and adopting the opinion that the
Czars ultimate object is the suugation Of all Austria He
PaSkswitch recently fierce letter to the ustran
Munster of War denouneng all the Austrian generals who
have served in the and refusing 10 serve with them
unless Radezky should be at placed in chief command
fhe Austrian armies with whichhe was cooperating The
Minister consequently ordered Radetzsky to proceed to the
North aud assume the command but that general peemp.
Oy and Indignantly refused obey the Order protesting
in vehement and indignant against the employment of
the Cars barbanans in oil oppression and ruthless
massacre He offered, however if the Russians should

in issue with the Hungarian government provided he
authorized guarantee KOssuth each and all of the
national rights for which he had commended Paseyitch
in his letter the Minister Of War threatened the event
Of his demands not being aceeded to- the
bis hook, independent Of tie Austrian army
and ths Camailla at Vienna
The writer of this letter is represented to be member of
a European Legation in Vienna His representations
bear no mark of mprObabily, and hope they will prove
in every thing except with regard to the humiliation
Of GeOrgey's Infantry He concludes by saying that no
doubt existed that if Geogey would Join Kapka
Auch and march upon Vienna, Presburg, and Pesth his
attacks upon those places in succession would be successful
The first prize in the against the Crusaders has
been taken and the grand be considered
good crushed This Prize is the good ship (Seam prope
e Sea Gull Capt Hayden, which cleared at Custom
house on Thursday last for Curacao but had been uHuUod
d5iy detained until Monday afternoon when she sailed, but
after followed by steamboat with government
official or two on board, and captured
It impossible learn anything definite to the ground
upon which she is held but it believed that she has in
fnged no law and that she cannot be detained for
length Of time Much curiosity hand, and mystery
on the other exhibited with regard to these proceedings
Why the Government officials should observe much
creoy in the matter, cannot imagine.
The loss by the burning of the Henry Clay very great
not less probably, than S65 000yet is matter Of
der that it not many times greater Locked in she
BY numerous shipping which could neither allow
her TO move it would almost impossible that the dam
age could be confined to herself alone. Yet, so it
noticed near her burning hull the eyiahan ship COnsu
tim which arrived last evening with nearly five hundred
passengers on board and several Others OF largest craft
The curious may the coincidence that the
honor of whom she received her name passed in

The monopOlsts of railroad transportation between this
city and Philadelphia, who have long subjected the
eing community their system of imposition have been
paray brought their by the discovery that
people can pass from the other of these cities without
using their road To-day the fare reduced to $3nOt be-
cause the Directors Of the road desire to promote any way
the public advantage but for the that the steamboat
lines recently put into operation promise afford transpO
taon on Just and honorable terms Had this reduction been
made a few months ago, the steamboat lines would
probably have been started but they have
menced aud are well paOnized, considerable further
duction will be necessary to put them down.
With such great travel have between New Yo and
Philadelphia properly conducted railroad would make
good dividends at rate Of fare exceeding dollar and
half Other railroads. upon which the travel is much less
do well general of two cents per mile, while these
New JeBeymen charge nearly five.
81 hope all the Southern people coming way, will take
the steamboats, at Philadelphia not merely upon cOusdera
tons Of comfort economy, and the enjoyment of fine
scenery but to aid US in putting down one of this most
shameful monOpolies of the day.
Our weather has grown warmer and to-day hre Is not
needed for comfort The cholera sl fingers in two or three
localities Of the city bat the epidemic has given its fare

four of which occurred in the hospitals and tour IN private
practice, during the last twenty -four hours The number Of
in this city very great sud business is unusually
brisk for the season.
