CHrs, Sept. 6.-Great alarm was oc-
cseioned last night, al half past two o.
clock, by the failing of the rocks at Fels
berg. Nearly the entire population, reused
from their beds by the fearful crash of the
rocks almost an hour, previous TO their
fall, had quilted the village, and stood on
the plain beyond awaiting the awful ca
iasirophe. The night was tolerably light;
suddenly tremendous crash was sue
ceeded by thick clouds of dust and large
masses Of rock were precipitated from the
heights apparently upon the village be-
meath.
So fearful was the noise that all conclu-
ded that the village was buried, and on
rushing to the spot the inhabitants found
a huge wall of rocks piled up al the very
extremity of the village. About twenty
of the blocks were as large as small
house, and innumerable others were of
father less dimensions. 1t is possible that
these masses may stand for some lime,
bu, the danger is imminent, as they are
billed Immediately beneath the preciPice.

A remarkable document has Just been
published in Austria, containing a full and
circumstantial list of all persons put TO
Death by the Hungarians, during the late
war, either by their Courts Martial or their
.>sher tribunals, in Hungary and Transyl-
eania 1t is no doubt intended to inJure
the Hungarians in the eyes of the world.

TO increase the indignation against Hay
nau, as il would probably have done.
Gen. Haynau, after lying at Morley's
Tavern twenty -four hours, 10 recover
from his bruises, sailed for Ostend, and
his arrival in Germany is already an

Naples.
The Prince OF Capua is on the road ID
England, for the purpose, il Is SAID, OF
asking Lord Palmerston to attempt 10
effect reconc iliation between himself and
his brother the King of Naples. Should
any arrangement be come 10, the Prince
will, it is believed, demand that the legi
1tmacy Of his children shall be recognised .
Italy.
Hon. George Hamilton, British Minis
ter at Floseuce, died in that city on the
Sd inst.
Fourteen young men, principally no.
elemen, have been confined IN the citadel
oil Amona, for being engaged in revolu-
siona<y plot, other arrests have also taken
place. The Florence paper, S:atutide,
quotes the following, without vouching
for its truth: "itis reported that Lord Pal
merston had addressed TO the Court of the
Vatican a most energetic note, in which
be cautions II against violent measures

The Board of Health Of Venice, by the
decree of the ID orders that all merchant
Encn coming from port in which the
cholera prevails shall be subjected to FIVE
days quarantine and stationary observa-

The Stdtudo, Of Florence, OF the 81
ins,., quotes letter from Naples, stating
that four generals and great number of
officers Of the army had dismissed the
service.
Schlesacig Holstein.
The Holsteiners seem to weary of ly-
ing inactive within their entertainments.
Col. De Tam al the head Of two or three
-bat,alions,. has made several attempts to
engage the Danes in petty skirmshes
which the Danish Generals as invaria-
bly, decline, as mol likely to lead TO any
results. 1t appears, however, that on
che 9th instant the whole line of posts
was engaged, with alternate success to
both parties Of the combatants.
The issue Of this encounter is not yet
known whilst we are writing, but the
general impression is, that it will prove
as indecisive as the skirmishes of the
previous days. Partial ratification of the
treaty of peace has been exchangd AT
Berlin, by which it would appear that
seventeen states Of Germany have ap-
proved of rhe peace. Hesse Cassel and
others which stand out do not seem in
clined to assist the Holstelners with the
sinews of,war. We do not see how the
war can be carried on without means; but
the courage Of the Holsteiners seems to
compensate for the want Of all other re-
