PHrtAprIpuIA..,July l2.-The New York
Times publishes a letter from the battle
field of Solferino, which says the battle
commenced Just before five in the NOR
ming. The Austrians were in position on
the hills near Castigleona Francis Joseph
personally commanded 225, 900 troops
Napoleon commenced the attack by plac-
ing cannon on the hills near Castigleona.
The French soon drove the enemy from
the nearest posts to the town, and followed
them into the small villages on the plain
below, the first of which was Solferino.
The Austrians disputed every inch of
ground, fighting with the utmost desper-
alton, being driven out of Solferino three
times before they would stay out. The
neople Of the village took part against the
| French. firing from the windows. which
compelled the French to burn the town.
1 Tho Austt.ians fell back on Rolta. and
planted formidable batteries on the range
of hills a mile from the Mincia. The can.
nonadine here lasted an hour, when a
part of the Austrian force probably crossed

EARTHQUAKE IN AsIATIc cTURKEY-Losso OF
FIFTEEN HUNDRED LIvEs.-We have re-
ceived, too late for publication this week,
letter from our Erzeroum correspondent
respecting the occurrence of most de-
stluctive earthquake there on the NOR
ming of the I'd June. The catastrophe,
which principally consisted of one terrible
shock lasting some fifteen seconds, had
occasioned immense loss of lives and prop
erty, more than 1900 human beings--it
was roughly calculated-and nearlya the
large buildings of the town having fallen
a prey to the calamity. Slight shocks con-
tinued to occur up till the evening of the
3D., but the principal damage had been
of the previous morning-Lerant Cn,st@s-

WAsHISGToN, July SIN the recent
semi-ofheial statement of the expendi-
lures for the fiscal year ending June 30,
which were given at S66,306,5S6 Sc, no
reference whatever was made to the Post
Office Department, although it was hard
ly possible for the Secretary of the Treas
ury to have been ignorant that the ex-
penses were far greater than the receipts.
The deficiency in that Department is now
ascertained to be about $4,S00,000 in
round numbers, thus adding formidable
array of figures to the previous imposing
aggregate, Mr.. Buchanan was very much
exercised in 1852, when he was President
in expectancy, that the public expendi-
lures should have run up to nearly fifty
millions year, when the legaoies of the
Mexican war were still expressing the
treasury. During the fiscal year ending
Both June, 1858, over SSl 100000 were
spent in time of peace, when he was
President in reality, without asyllable OF
censure, or an attempt to inquire into
the causes of this extraordinary increase.
The expenses for the year just closed
were more than S20,000,0O0 beyond the
maximum which formerly so much excl
ted the Presidents apprehension, and yet
he has neither complained nor investiga-
ted the causes. In fact the whole effort
has been to defend, justify, and extenu-
ate an enormous outlay, which is wholly
disproportioned to the wants or revenue
of the government.

"Popular sovereignty. Z

Mr.. Douglas theory of Popular, orrrer-
ritorial Sovereignty, as we have often
said, is all that Black Republicans need
desire for the expulsion of slavery from
the Territories. Forney's press, whichi is
in the interest of Douglas, takes the same
view of the subject Listen to the rhap-
sody of this anti-slayery editor concern
ing Mr.. Douglas pet proposition;
We see no reason why the people of
the North should complain of the practi-
cal operation of the doctrine of Popular
Sovereignty. 1t made California a free
State, and it is settled, beyond all doubt,
that Kansas and Nebraska can never be
slave States. 1t abolished slavery in sew
en- OF. the thirteen original colonies, and
it viii prevent the establishment of sla
very in all the unsettled Territories of
the Union, except those which may be
occupied almost exclusively by slavehold-
ing emigrants, and which are peculiarly
adapted to slave labor. 1t is founded up
on the eternal principles of justice, and
it will prevail in the future, as it has pre-
vailed in the past, in spite OF all the ma
chinsations against it, and the quibbles,
subtefuges, hair-splitting abstfactions,
and frivolous mctexts upon which they
assail it. Repeatedly sanctioned by the
American people, il will again and again
be sanctioned by them, until no party
shall dare to rise up to oppose il, and I'M.
til zealots of all sections will be forced tc
acknowledge the futility of an efforts tc
undermine it. e1f

-RuNNINo Expenses on RAILRozDs.-An
invention, applicable to steam engines,
and called the variable exhaust" is
used upon some of the locomotives of the
New York Central railroad One of
them is applied to the locomotive p "Wil-
link, on the Western division. The re
snlt Of this application, as we learn from
the Rochester Democrat, is as follows:
From the statement of running expen-
ses OF locomotive engines on the Western
Division for the month of May, we find
that the "Willmk" was run 1906 miles
using 3G4 cords of wood, or / cord to
l0I 26, 100 miles-the most economical
machine ON the Western Division.
Compared with the "W. w. Corcoran," ,"
machine precisely similar to the evil
link"-built by the same makers, of the
same size and power, and engaged in the
same business on the same road-the sa-
wing of fuel and oil is surprising. The
"Willinlxo ran l0l 26l00 miles for each
cord OF wood consumed, and the ''Con-
coranv ran only 40 20.l0O miles. The
"WillinkD used ! pint of oil in running
80 35. 100 miles, while the 'sCorcoran"
used pint in running As $4,000. In
April the "Willinlxy used only pint Of
oil in running IL miles.
