The italian War Over.

The following is the telegram from Napoleon
to the Empress announcing the fact.
VALLEGIo July 11.-Peace is signed between
the Emperor of Austria and myself. The basis
of peace are: The Italian Confederation under
the honorary presidency Of the Pope; the EN-
peror of Austria comedies his rights in Lombar-
dy to the Emperor of the French, who transfers
them TO the King of Sardinia; the Emperor Of
Austria preserves Venice, but she will form an
integral part of the Italian Confederation.
The London Times says that Venice must
hope that her independence will not be mere
name, and that the influence of France and Aus
tris united will not be unbearable than that of
Austria singly. The Romans must hope that
the italian Confederacy, under the honorary
presidency of the Pope, win be nothing like any
Government they have hitherto known. The
Papal States are left as they were, but with a
master somewhat greater than before The King
of Naples is made a member ofthe Confederation.
and has to learn the worth Of, that honor and its
import. Europe has to welcome new power
England has nothing to do but look on. Aus
tria is somewhat humbled, but relieved of a diff.
Guilty. Sardinia is aggrandized with a province
that mistrusts her. The grand Dukes, we sup
pose, are once more to be reinstated in theil
thrones. France has Europe before her. She car
raise Italy, and half the Austrian Empire against
those Germans whom she has so often beaten
yet on the very summit of her ambition she re-
nounces. France hasspent fifty millions sterling
and $4,000 men.

GEN. Tom THUMB (Charles S. Stratton) was
to leave Liverpool on Wednesday last, in the
steamer City of Washington, and he will prob
ably arrive home on Tuesday next. He is now
over twepty-one years of age having attained
his majority in January last. Since that period
he'll has managed his own affairs, and, as we under
stand, has conducted his exhibitions successfully.
Indeed, those who know him best say that al
though an infant in size he is above the average
ofthose of his age in point of intelligence. Hav-
ing secured comfortable independence, he has
concluded to settle down in this, his native city,
and take the world easy as "a gentleman at
large" occasionally running into the country
professionally for few weeks, "just to keep his
hand in" Be it understood that this young gen.
tleman is in the matrimonial market, and is
ready to hear from any respectable young lady
of " good size" who will promise never to get
him in pet and place him on the mentle-piece
from which he could not escape unassisted, with
out great risk of breaking his little bones -

THE AFRICAN SLAVE TRADE WASHINGTON,
July 25- From information received in this
city, it appears that some of the Southern Rep
resentatives, while claiming to be opposed to
reopening the African slave trade, are pledging
themselves to introduce in Congress a bill repeal
ing all the statutes upon the subject, leaving it.
as they profess to DESIRE to the regulation Of the
several states But, as the Constitution confers
on Congress the power to prohibit the trade, and
as " death seems to be regarded as too severe
penalty for violating what some consider mere
ly law regulating commerce, it is thought that
Others who are opposed to the slave trade, will
agree upon measure, with a view to make the
prohibition and abolition more effective by the
certainty of punishment otherwise than capital
and thus they think that good will result from
the present agitation of the subject.

THE PHILADELPHIA Posi- OFFICE BUILDING
WASHINGTON, July 14-The Secretary of the
Treasury, Postmaster General, and Attorney
General have decided that, in consequence of the
invadity of the title, or the impossibility of the
American Philosophical Society to fully convey
in fees simple to the United States their Hall in
Philadelphia, it will require further legislation
by Congress before the building for the post Office
and court house purposes can be proceeded with.
The order for the sale of the Bank of Pennsyl-
vania property viii, therefore, for the present,
be withdrawn; the commission consisting of
the above-named Cabinet officers, preferring to
refer the whole matter to the judgment and con-
sideration of the next Congress.

woman belonging to Mr.. M. j. Nixon, of this
county, gave information on Wednesday last that

may be arrested. The clerks are indignant and

A MOST EXTRAORDINARY AFFAIR occurred in Jas

A MOST EXTRAORDINARY AFFAIR occurred in j as
per county, Indiana, last week. An old man
named William Haskings, aged seventy, married
an old lady of almost the same age, named Anna
Mead. Twenty seoen gears before they acre
man and aoife, with a family of five children. -
Becoming dissatisfied at the time, they separated,
and hearing nothing of each other for years,
both married again. But both being left alone,
after the deaths of their partners and coming
together thus late in life, they concluded to trav-
Ell the little journey that was left, together. So
extraordinary case we do not remember ever
to have heard before.

Tom HYER AND THE BENICIA Boy STRIPPED
FOR A FIGHT.-Between two and three o'clock
on Saturday morning last the fancy" came very
near having a street fight between Tom Hyer
and Heenan, the Benica boy. 1t appears, from
what information could be ascertained-a strong
effort, however, being made to suppress the
facts-that Heenan and quite number of his
friends among them Jim Hughes were in the
Dexter House, Broome street New York, about
the above hour, drinking, and while there Tom
Hyer entered and joined the party. After sew
eral drinks had gone the rounds a dispute arose
between the Benicia boy and Tom Hyer respec-
ting their capacity as fighters, when an effort
was made to draw them into a fight by parties
present. This proved successful, and soon words
led to challenge being given by Heenan for an
immediate fight. Hyer accepted the offer, and
both parties stripped off their coats and neck
cloths and repaired to the sidewalk. Here an
effort was made by two or three of those disin-
terested to put stop to the fight. While this
was being done several persons attempted Ito
use their own phrase) to double bank" Hyer.
The latter, however, finding out their game, drew
his revolver, and said he would shoot the first
man that made an attempt to interfere with him.
This had the effect of creating some alarm lest
pistol shots might be exchanged, and the friends
of both parties withdrew their men, and the fight
was postponed. For some time there has been
strong effort making to draw Tom Hyer into
a regular prize fight, as by many it is claimed
that he holds the championship of the ring. Mr..
Hyer, however, has expressed himself opposed
to engaging in any more fights, and only when
cornered in bar-room or some other place does
he consent to defend his rights. Had fight
ensued between the above parties on Saturday
morning, there is no doubt but that some person
would have been killed, as this class of men gene
rally go pretty well armed.

A HUNGARIAN, writing from Pesth to the Lon
don Times, says that the idea of successful
revolution in Hungary is an illusion. Hungary,
he thinks, cannot be made independent Of Austria
except with the consent of the great European
Powers. Nor does he believe that independence
is desired by the mass Of the people Of Hungary
who simply ask that Francis Joseph, not as En-
peror Of Austria, but as King of Hungary, shall
restore to them their ancient rights and privileges
