BURNED.-We regret very much to learn
that on last Sunday night about 10 o'clock
the residence of Daniel Davis, living miles
east of this place. was burned TO ashes. The
family had only time to escape from the
flames as the house was falling in when they
discovered the fire. The entire dwelling, all
the clothes of the family and over three hun
dred dollars in money were consumed by the
flames. From the circumstances connected
with the fire it is believed to be the work of
an cendiary.-LeaOisJarg Messenger.

NORTH CAROLINA ELECTIONs.-It turns out
that the Opposition in the Old North State
have not only carried four of the eight Con-
gressiOnal Districts, but, have carried them
by maiorities that amount, in the aggregate
to between five and six Acknowledgements
than the maiOrities agrinst them in the other
four Districts. The popular vote of the
State has therefore been cast for the Opposi-
ton, which promises well for the contest of

 AT MONTEBELLO.
 LONDON, May Earthquakes from Paris and Vienna announce that an important battle was fought on the 21st inst, at Montebello, small town on the Aldega, in the territory of Venice, and belonging to the Lombardo- Venetian kingdom.
 It appears that the army corps of Mar shal Paraguay d'Hlliers, with a division under Gen. Forey, which embarked from Toulon on the 27th of April, on board the Mediterranean squadron, proceeded to the eastern shores of the Adriatic, where the fleet was seen on the 18th inst; crossed over and effected landing near the mouth of the Aldega.
 The Austrian troops, under Gen. Count Stadion, Commander-in- chief of the fourth corps d'armee, at the head of Is, 900 men. attacked the outposts of Marshal d Hiliers, but the Austrans were driven back by the division of the French under Gen. Forney, after furious combat of four hours dura- ton.
 The Austrians retreated to Montebello, pursued by the French, who finally cap- tured the place and remained in possession of it, bu, did not pursue the Ausrians fur ther. The Austrian force engaged in the battle was l5,000, and the French, accord ing to Austrian accounts, numbered 5000 men. The loss of the Austrians was 2 ,000 in killed, wounded, and prisoners, while that of the French is reported to have been 700.

ST. JoHN's, N. F.. June 9.-The war news by the Arago is the most exciting yet received, and apprehensions are now again renewed that all Europe will soon become involved in the conflict. In Southern Germany, particularly Ba- varia, Wurtemburg, Baden, and other States with Austrian symphathies, the war feeling is very strong. Volunteers are daily offering for the Austrian army, and the whole country was in slate of feverish excitement.
 The war feeling in the Federal Diet, sitting at Frankfort, was also day by day growing stronger. The minor German States were unanimous in favor of at once entering the field.
 ENORMOUS APARTMENTS IN AUSTRIA. Letters from Vienna state that the most enormous armaments are being fitted out in all the Provinces of the Empire, and that Austria would soon have nearly a million of men under arms.
 IMMENSE LEvIES IN RANCE-A NEW "ARMY OF THE NORTH" TO BE FORMED.
 A new levy of one hundred and fifty thousand men had been ordered, and the organization of new "Army of the | North" for the defence of the Northern and Northeastern frontier in case of attack by Germany. was in contemplation. | In the meantime the same activity pre- vailed in the French navy as in the army;
 Sixty French vessels of war are now cruising in the waters of the Adriatic and the Levant.
 The blockade of the Austrian ports was so strict that all business therein, however small. had ceased, and the Austrian heel had become entirely useless.
 ANOTHER BATTLE.
 By the way of Berne, Switzerland, ad. vices from the seat of war are to the 18th There had been serious fighting along the base of the Alps; the whole country ol Upper Lombardy was in state of revo. lution.
 This popular movement was organized and headed by Garibaldi, who, gathering new forces as he advanced, made his ap- pearance before Como on the 26th, witt we'll appointed army of 10000 to l5, ,00( men. The city was defended by garri son of about 1000 men, which, thougf much inferior in number to the attacking party, was better organized. and had ths advantage of position. For three houri and upwards the battle ragged, but thu Austrians were at last completely over powered and driven out at the point of ths bayone,.
