All the advices from the continent of
Europe represent the condition ol affairs
as most deplorable, and the rigorous rule
OF despotism never beior was felt SO op.
presslveIy by the people, and that per-
feet reign of terror had been established.
a correspondent OF the New York Tri.
bune. writing from London, England,
says that in Italy and Hungary mo one
retlres 10 rest without the apprehension
that he likewise may be rousled from his
sleep by the agents of arbitrary despotism
TO be dragged TO prison. The panic by
which the military rulers are seized is so
great that in Italy no Austrian officer ven.
lures into the street without an escort,
while at Omutz itself-in l848 the place
of refuge OF the imperial famiy-il has
been found necessary TO protect the SEN
tries by strong rails from The lI-leelng
OF the people, These tyranical meas.
ures are producing such an effect upon
the people by driving taem to desperation.
that the London Morning Post does moi
hesitate to perdici that a successful re
beliicn will be the result. 1t says:
The people Of Naples wait for move.
ment which is sure 10 take place in the
Austrian Empire. Then. the whole OF
Italy, from the frontiers OF Piedmont 10
Sicily, will be in the revolt, aud sad dis.
asters will follow. The Italian troops will
disbOnd--lhe so called Swiss soldiers re-
cruited from the revolution OF l848 will
not save the sovereigpS of Italy. An
impossible republic awaits Italy. That
will assuredly be the next act of the dra,
ma which began in l848. Diplomacy
has exhausted all its power for the prin.
ees oI Italy.

Henry SlOnbery, Hooking Hunter and
.A2honso Taft, Esqs,, an array OF coun-
sci which no private individual would
have employed to protect an interest Of
$3.50. Mr., Ewing boldly admitted that
the Marietta Company we're interested
and that they had right to aid in ihe
prosecution of the suit before the Court
T. His Honor Judge Caldwell, in de,
Gliding the cause, used these words: "As
10 the other rival road, which appears to
have been assisting in the prosecution Of
this case. ! have nothing to say" This
observation would never have fallen from
the learned Judge, had it not been appa-
rent that the Marietta Company were a
party 10 the cause.
Indeed, the small amount of the com.
plainant's interest in this case, (only
seren shares of stock, worth $3.50 at par, J
renders it evident that their prodigous
efforts have objects Of more magnitude
than the protection Of his interests
When the decision of Judge CALDWELL
had stricken terror into the Marietta
Company, and shown how useless it
would be TO lurtherprosecute al this time,
the persecution leveIed against the Hills,
borough Road; conference was invited
by the attorneys Of the former, with those
ofthe latter;-the true parties in the c1ase
at last came face 10 (aceAin that confer.
ence, The complainant was, neither men.
toned nor regarded. and the attorneys
for the Marietta Company-smelling de.
feat afar withdrew .or the present,
their intention Of proceeding in the name
Of another Of the BALDWIN family before
Judge Rogers. at Springfield, of which
they had given notice.
The above information was derived
mainly from the depoStions read, and ar.
gumentS made in open court. and it fully
establishes the leading facts, That the
Marietta and Cincinnati Raiiroad Com.
pany are tile real parties in tie alleged
prosecution cf the HNSbor0ngA Road.
We regret that the Scioto Gazette, by
styling our notice untrue and calumni
ouS," has drawn this statement from US.
in our own defence, as we do not think it
will benefit either that paper or the Com,
pany it represents.

On Saturday afternoon, we took q ride
on the freight train to Iiales' Creek, where
the workmen are engaged in laying the
track. The iron is now down about q
miles beyond Webster, and MIR. Connolly
| is pushing the work forward as fast as pos
sible. We heard an expression from
Messrs, McVey q Kinney, who accompa-
MED us, to the effect that it was important
to have the iron put down as fast as pos
sible The Directors know the impor-
tancc of an early connection with Jack
son, and our friends up in that region
may rest assured that train of cars will
be in their midst at an early day.
Our engineer, Mr.. Webb, returned
from Jackson on Saturday. He informs
us that about two hundred hands are al
ready at work on the road between Jack
son and the junction with the Cincinnati
and Marietta road. They are pushing
forward the work rapidly, and wish to
get that portion ready for the iron by the
time the road is completed to Jackson

The rmorcd explosion of the powder
mill oG Mr. WaItcrhouse turns out 10 be
true, as we learn from gentlemen who
have visited the scene Of disaster.
1t took place about half-past twelve
O'Clock on Monday, as the hands were
returning from dinner, Fortunately there
was no person in the establishment at the
time; and no one was injured except a
boy who wns standing on pile of brick
some distance from the building He
was thrown down and received slight
injury ON thc leg from the fall. The
amount of powder burned, as we learn,
was about 240 kegs. The timbers and
fixtures of the building were blown to
atoms, and many pieces of timber, &c,
were thrown into the fields on the oppo-
site side Of the river. We ehaye not learn
ed the amount Of loss by the proprietors.

LATER FROM EUROPE.

ARRIVAL OF THE AMERICA.
New YORK, April Is.
The America arrived at Halifax on
Wednesday night, and by express and
telegraph, we have summary of her
news. She sailed from Liverpool, on
Saturday, April Cd.
Arrangements had been completed to
give Mrs. Stowe public reception.
A deputation presented an address to
Napoleon, from the London Merchants,
expressing friendly feeling towards
France, to which the Emperor made
conciliatory reply.
The French budget for next year is
greatly reduced. The Madiai were ex-.
pected from Paris to meet deputation
from the London Bible Society.
Naudorf, the pretended Dauphin, has
enlisted as private in the Dutch Army.
The French Assembly have given fete
to the Emperor and Empress, on which
occasion 297 prisoners wer pardoned, and
400 others had their sentences committed.
An address to President Pierc, from a
European Democratic committee, has
been forwarded by well known agent,
probably Count Puletzky. The real OBJ
ject is to procure arms for future occa-
sion.
Several outbreaks of armed pcasantry
occurred in Switzerland, but were put
down by the military.
Matilda Hartzield, an American lady,
had been apprchended lately, as an agent
Of revolutionary committee, and was
sentenced to six weeks imprisonment.
A conspiracy was discovered at Berlin
on the 29th, when twenty arrests were
made.
The Sandman Government has sent
special instruction to It's Minister at Wen
na, that if Austria refuses to conccdc cer-
tain stipulatlons, he should at once de-
mand his passport and quit Vienna,
Austria continues to make arrests of
Hungarians. Eighty political prisoners

The Prussian ultimatum had not been
presented to the Porte up to March 18th.
A rumor was circulated in the Paris
Bourse, that Prussia had broken diploma
tic intercourse with England.

Late advices from Berlin, give the par
ticulars of the discovery of the conspir-
acy. Nearly all the ultra Democratic
leaders are under arrest. Among them,
are DR.. Falkerbhall, DR.. Goldman, several
merchants, and number of the Assem-
bly,. All kinds of weapons and revolu-
tionary publications were found.
The London News, of Saturday, pub
fishes the details of the revolutionary
movements in Sicily, which had been sup
pressed.
A Naples letter, of the 18th, says

state than since the reaction. Several
hundred persons were arrested at Naples,
including many eminent lawyers,

prove it. On this point the Boston Times,

There is an abundance of Whip ma.

which threw some thirteen hundred thou

tion needs only 10 be placed under good
leadership to be converted into political
engine of almost incalculable power 1t
is particularly so from the workings OF
our somewhat complex mode of eleeting
a President, The Wing papers have al
ready proved that the change of some
$4,000 votes, last November, would have
elected Gen. Scott and we know that a
change of 5000 would have reelected
Mr.. Van Buren in l84). Such being the
case, il is only requisite that an opposition
party should be thoroughly united to have
reasonable good chance of being con.
verted into governing party. The his
tory of PolkS administration shows how
unwse it is to think that the Wings are
eXtingushed because badly beaten. The
democratic victory of 1914 was one of
the most complete ever won by political
party, because fought on clear and dis.
tinct issues, and the result brought about
by the action Of the party itself without
much aid from that floating vote" Mr.
Polk met the twenty.ninth Congress with
"A majority Of about seventy in the House !;
yet the very next House, that which as.
sembled in l847, elected Wing Spea
ker, (Mr. Winthrop.) In 1848 The peo.
pie elected Wing President. So that
in two years the decision Of 1914 was
reversed, so far as Congress was con.
cerned, which reversal was sustained
when the people came 10 vote for Presi
dent in l848. We are to recoIect. that
the democrats had the Mexican War, 10
aid them at that time, and they turned it
10 some account. X y Yet, so com.
pieteiy demOrahzed hal Tie Democratic
party b came during Mr.. POik'S term of
seruice, that it was utterly unable to seize
the palm of victory in 1913. though the
gltering prize apparently courled demo,

memorable year."

The So Mad StOnc."

Our readers will perhaps remember a
paragraph which appeared in our paper
two or three weeks ago, giving some &C.
count Of wonderful stone which was
said 10 have the power Of curing hydro
phobia. We thought the story an extra
ordinary one, but confess to a large
amount of incredulity, Notwithstanding
the confidence with which the statement
was made, and published it rather as a
matter Of curiosity than any thing else.
Friday, however, we were called upon
by a gentleman ofthiS county, Mr.. Moses
B. Womsly, who informed US ina. he had
a" mad stone" in his possession, and that
its virtues had been tested in many cases,
and invariably with the happiest results.
lie says he bought the stone in Boone
county, Kentucky, where it had been
brought by Virginan, who broke the
stone in three pieces, giving one Of them
10 each Of his three children. Two of
them emigraed to Illinois, taking their
portions Of the stone with them and our
informant thinks the stones alluded to in
The paragraph copied by US are parts N
that to which his piece belongs. Mr.. ".
describes the mad stone as similar 10
flint, but so exceedingly hard as TO resist
even the hardest file. The stone is ap.
piled TO TIE wound if recent, or if not. the
skin near it is laceraed until it bIeeds
freely. and the stone then applied. II
sticks TO the wound until, as Mr.. Woms
Iy says, i, has become filled with the
poison, and then drops of, when it is
washed in warm spring water or milk, and
again applied. Tholcngth ortjme which
1t rcmalns attached tolhe wound depends
upon the violence Of the diseaSe-gener.
ally from two TO sixteen hours The
latter is the longest time that it has been
known to adhere to any one that was the
case of man who had been bitten by
his own dog, and did not have the stone
applied for eight days. His son and sew.
eraI OF his cattle were bitten by the same
dog. The father and son were cured by
the application Of the stone but the elt.
tic exhibited unmislakable signs of hydro.
phobia. and died.
Mr.. Womsely we do not know, but he
appears to be very respectable man;
and, from his appearance, we should be
disposed, to place great confidence in
statements he might make in reference to
any other matter. He has promisel US
to bring this wonderful stone to our o lice.
when we may possibly have something
more TO say about it--Cin. Ga2.
