SHOOTING AFFAIR.-The usually quiet
and peaceable town Of IA amazoo, Mich.
was thrown into conside ra5le excite
ment. on Friday last. by the desperate re-
sistance OF the civil authority by a man
named Hill. with two or three accom-
plices. Hill pretends to own property
on one OF the streets, and his house is
situated directly in said street. Due no.
tice was given him to remove *, to
which he paid no attention; whereupoE
the corporate authorities authorized its
removal. The workmen commenced op-
erations Friday morning. when Hill fired
upon them, wounding one man severely.
Two more were wounded at successive
shots. though happily not dangerously.
Three Of the perpetrators Of this outrage
have been arrested. and the case is now
undergoing an examination.

PERU * CHICAGO RAILRoA D.-The pros
poets for the early completion of this
work. are unusually promising, consid-
erin. 3, late day in which it was under
taken. The practica bility of the route is
SO clearly perceptible. and the manage
msnt OF its affairs having fallen into the
right kind Of hands, account for the fiat
tering prospects ahead.
On Wednesday last, Hon. John B..
Niles. in his usual forcible and satisfac-
tory manner, addressed our citizens at
the Court house in this place. upon the
importance ana practicability OF this
route. and they all seem TO be deeply
impressed with its importance, and the
necessity of their energetic and speedy
action in aid Of the project.
The last Laporte Times very truly says:
mo one at all acquainted with the
country can after little reflection, doubt
but that the stock of this company offers
one OF the most profitable and advanta-
geous investments that can be found. -
Large subscriptions have already been
made BY our pc ople of the town & coun
try; but we hope that our citizens, bot
OF town and country. will more fully ap-
preciate the great advantages TO be de-
rived from the construction Of this road
and come forward with their strength in
support of the enterprise. We believe
that considerably over 100000 have
been subscribed here already. but In such
work our people can 60 to $500 OOO
without difficulty. Large subscri ptions
are being made along the line and al Gin.
cinnati. and if we will put forth half ouI
strength. the road will be built in a dou-
BILE quick time

"Mr. Gleason, Chief Engineer of this
company arrived here on Saturday last
with the necessary assistants and instru

HALIFAX, August Ie

The steamship america arrived this az
ternoon, having left Liverpool at 9 A. NJ
Oh the 10Th inst. She brings so passan-
gers.
The America sails from Halifax al six
o'clock this evening for Boston. where
she will be due at all early heaf o-mor-
row morning.
The America passed the Africa on the
9Th of July. going into Liverpool.
The Eastern difficulty was within
few days of being settled, either for peace
or war.
The public generally. look on the state
OF affairs as less satisfactory. Until the
10th or l2l Of August, the Cars final
answer to the ultimatum Of the four pow
ers, England. France, Austria and Prus-
STA. cannot be known. If he accepts tha t
ultimatum. his troops must be inmedi-
ately withdrawn from the municipalities.
The conference a. Vienna will conclude
a treaty to protec: Turkey in all coming
time. If the Gar refuses the ultimatum
of the four powers, or evades reply.
which will be considered as equivalent
to refusing. the allied feet will be order
ed to the Bosphorus. if not further, and
active measures will be taken by France
and England 10 maintain the integrity OF
their ally. The question, therefore. is
on the point of solution, for peace or
war. The choice rests solely and wholly
on the personal will of the Emperor Mich
Olss.
The journals Of Frankfort of the 30th
say that Austria intends not only TO de
mdnd reparation from the United States
for the Smyrna affair, but insists that the
Porte Immediately proceeds to the extra
dition of Koszta.
81. Petersburgh letters say that when
the Car heard OF the Koszta affair, he
advised Austria TO settle it as early as
possible, and do anything rather than Ia
give the United States any pretpnce for
interference with the affairs of Europe.
LATEST. The London Globe indicates
the proha bic course of events if the Ca
rejects the proposition of the four pow
ers. No actual attacks on the Russians
will ensue. The allied fee. will merel y
take up position under the walls of Con
stantinople. Negotiations will be re-
sumed, three months may elapse before
they are complet ted, and war this yea,
will be impossible. and the whole win
ter will be available to discuss matters
This. doub less, is only an ingenious con
lecture.
In the House Of Commons, Lord Johr
Russell sta ted the intention Of the gov
ernment in regard to Jamaica. The prin
cipal feature of the plan is that EAg lane
