Ihr AMERICAS CHARGE D'AFrAIRrs AT VirN-
sA.-Currency has been given to rumors that the
Hon Charles j. McCurdy, the American Charge
dhiislres at vienna, had received certain Sights
from the Austrian government. We understand
that these runors are un founded. 1t could hardly
be expected that the Austrian cabinet would vol
unteer any extra courtesics to him while NJ Kos
suth, whom they consider a rebel, WAS being re-
ceived in this country as a martyr to patriotism,
and victim to Austrian vengeance; but We learn
that he has received every civIity and courtesy 10
which his position and character of right entitled
him.
The Austrian government have reason TO know
that had II been otherwise he would not have re-
manned day in Vienna. Mr.. McCurdy is one of
the last men in the world likely to brook insult
from any quarter. The frmness and discretion
with which he has go far exercised HE functions

CorRIsPONDEScE.--Wc have received, by our last
arrivals from Europe, very important correspou-
dence from Mr.. Thrashcr, formerly Of the Faro IN
dnarioi, Of Cuba whose case will be well remember
ed. This correspondence comprises letter address,
ed by Mr.. Thrashcr to the Hon. Daniel Webster Sec
rotary Of State, and one to General Concha, COVER
nor at Havana. In this letter Mr. Thrasher mr.
gucs with great ability the legality Of his re-
cent arrest, trial, aud sentence passed upon him
by the authorities Of Cuba, lie also exhibits
in no very cnyiabe light tho conduct Of Mr.
Webster and tho American government in that
particular cnse. The correspondence viii be read
with a great deal Of interest by all the friends
Of Mr.. Thrasher, either in this country or in Cuba.
The letter is dated from Madrid, but it expressly
appears by the last accounts, that Mr.. Thrashcr
himself has arrived in Paris hs way 10 this coun-
try. We may soon expect him in this city, ana
we suppose his friends intend 10 give him warm re-
esption.

The MEXICAN CLAMs-THE GARDINER INDICr
hENr We have received full and accurate informa-
ton, both from Mexico and Washington, relative to
the various mysteries connected with the Mexican
claims, and particularly with respect to the claims
Of DR.. Gardiner and Mr.. Hargous, of which so much
has been said in the newspapers Of late years 1t is
doubtful, however, whether this is proper time to
publish all we know of these matters and of the r
tricate maneuvres, intrgues, and movements con-
nected with them. We are very much disposed to
believe that the indictment against DR.. Gardiner,
and all the rumors and difficulties in respect to this
and other matters growing out these claims have
been produced by two or more cliques of lobby
members, who have made Of the various claimants
footballs for subscribing their own purposes, and
making them the means Of furnishing heavy fees
to the agents concerned in them. 1t is calculated
that fees to the amount Of at least three millions
Of dollars, over and above the million Of the whole
amount Of claims, have been paid away to agents,
lobby-members, ex-Senators and ex.Congressmen,
for their imaginary services and influence in hav-
ing these claims confirmed. We think it is time
for Congress to take up the matter, and have a
fair examination of the whole subject.

TRAVEL TO EURoPE.-The fashionable travel,
embracing summer tours In the Old World, Is begin
ming with considerable momentum about these days.
Many Of the passengers going out in the steamers
recently sang from this port, or from Boston, visit
the other side Of the Atlantic for purposes of hea.h,
remeatiop. and amusement, either for the summer,
or for longer periods.
Among the others who leave in the steamer to-day,
for Liverpool, we observe the name Of ID. ID. How.

city. He is accompanied by his only daughter, II
Young lady of very superior attractions and accom-
plishments, who has just flushed her education Mt
the seminary of Mrs. Moars, up town, one OF the
first and most respectable establishments OF the
kind in this country. Mr.. Howard, we believe, in
tends to be absent in Europe two or three months,
more or less In that time, with the present iacii
ties Of travelling in the Old World, he can have
very pleasant tour through England, Scotland,
France, Germany, Switzerland and other interest
ing countries. During last winter, Mr.. Howard and
his daughter spent few months in Cuba, for the
benefit of his health, and We suppose he now
snatches from the approaching summer an equal
length Of time, by way Of relaxation from the ia
tiguing devotion which his extensive establishment
demands from its proprietor and head
To all our friends, readers and correspondents in

their place so rapidly that | was entirely res

AS token of gratitude for your able and
successful treatment of my Cancers, volun-

with Cancers may be directed to you, for a
