The U s. TREAsURY-The Washington
Intelligencer, of the 10Th, speaking of the con-
dition of the Treasury, says:
We were about to transfer to our columns
very favorable view of the affairs of the
Treasury, of increasing and abundant revenue
and decreasing expenditures, which appeared
a few days ago in the Washington correspon-
dence of a New York journal, and which, from
its eircumstantiality and confident tone, we
inferred was prepared under the sanction Of
the Treasury Department when we were
taken aback by the following contradicting
statement in the correspondence of the Balti-
more Sun Of the 18th instant
II am authorized to state that the letter in
the New York Times concerning the Govern
ment finances is not official, SO far as any ex-
pressions of the Secretary of the Treasury or
Of his assistants are concerned. They do not
expect that the revenues from customs the
present fiscal year W II exceed in amount the
sum estimated by Mr.. Cobb last December,
namely, .ftty-sir millions Of. dollars. This is
six and half millions less than that estimated
in the statement referred to above''

Destruction OF An AUSTRIAN STEAMBOAT AND
Two HUNDRED MES.-Ths following is an extract of
the London Nsrs' correspondent, dated Juns 81:
''Phe day before yesterday one Of the Austrian
steamboats, which ran on the Lake Of Garda had
started from the opposite bank with the object Of
remembering GsribaliPs forces at Sale As afser
the action Of Yirle il was thought prudent to
strengthen the Csecistori dele Alpi, Piedmontese
battery sent there with two battalions Of Fan
tbs division. They had just arrived when the Fran
els joseph steamboat ordered 10 steer to the
Bresoian side Of the Gafda. She therefore steamed
IN that direction; but at the moment g. was enter
ing the harbor Of Sale, the Piedmoniese battery
opensdi its ere upon her Our guns had been so well
directed at two Of their round shot soon DESTROYED
her elegant stern OF this was the signal for
hasty retreat, bat she about turn her helm
well directed grenade fell on the middle Of her
deck. Two seconds sfierEaTds tremendous explo-
sion was heard; the gr, made had made its way into
the magazine, sad in less than five minutes The
Francis Joseph was in flames. A distress signal
was hoisted hut before the Benedek could be sent
from Peschiera to help her crew, she sank in the
midst Of the lake. Not one Of the two hundred men
she had on board was saved; all Of them persisted,
either burned 10 death BY the Imes drowned in
the waters OF the classic Bsnacus."

MONAoco arrived here in such pitisbls state that
the greatest uneasness is felt for his life He had
been arrested hostage by General URBAN, and
has ever sisee been obliged to follow The Austrian
column on foot, and notwithstanding his great age
has been exposed to the most horrible fatigue. His
strength having become exhausted. he applied to
General URBAN for some alienation Of his suffer-
ings The reply was an order from the General to
give him fifty blows with stick, after which he was
set at liberty"

AN AMERICAS PlUnDraED-rnn MASSACRE a.

. an AMERICAN PIUNDERED-TnR MASSACRE AT
PsauaIA--An American gentleman named Mr.. E.
n PERKINS, of Boston, who arrived at Perusia from
Rome on The 18th Of June, with Mrs PRRKIEs and
three other ladies, had very narrow escape from
the hands Of the brutal sOlGiery who burst into the
Hotel de France, where he was staying, shot the
master CT the hotel and waiter and would most pro-
baby have murdered the travellers also, had thew
not been concealed by the mother of the unfortu-
nate hotel keeper in dark recess lead ng by Sc
eret door out Of one of their bed rooms In this
sutocatDg hiding place they al remained for four
teen hours aud when they at last ventured out they
found that iae whole hotel had been Quilted, furni-
ture and property destroyed or carried off, and that
Mr. PERKINS luggage, containing money and valu-
able effects Of many kinds to the amount Of nearly
$4,000, had Likewise become the prey of these free
hooters in uniform. The U. s. minister at Rome,
Mr. STocKTox, has received an exact account Of the
occurrence from the sufferers, and is making ensr-
getc representations TO the government in order to
obtain suitable reparstion.

JEWS IN THE FREScH ABMr.-The names and
ranks Of l4O Jewish officers now serving in the
French army in Italy have been published This
(says the Jewish ChrOnisls,) is "a extraordinary
number, and yet the catalogue is incomplete, and
supplementary list is promised. As in France pro-
motion depends entirely upon individual merit, we
consider this number of officers as most honorable
testimony TO Jewish bravery, skin and morality,
especially when it is borne in mind that the whole
Jewish population Of France does not exceed 100 600
souls.

Ague Cure,

FOR THE SPEEDY CURE OF
Intermittent Fever, or Fever and Ague, Re-
Taittent Fever, Chill Fever, Dumb Ague,
Periodical Headache, OF Bilious Head
ache, and Bilious FeVers, indeed for the
whole class of diseases originating in bill
iary arrangement, caused by the Malaria
of miasmatic countries.
No one remedy is louder called for by the ne
eessities of the American people than sure and
safe cure for Fever and Ague. Such we are
now enabled to offer, with a perfect certainty
that it will eradicate the disease, and with as
surance, founded on proof, that no harm can
arise from its IN any qusntity.
That which protects from or prevents this dis
order must be of immense service in the eomnu-
mites where 1t prevails. Persliion is better than
cure, for the patient escapes the risk which he
must IN violent attacks Of this baleful dis
temper. This CURE expels the miasmatic
poison Of FEVER AND AGUE from the system and
prevents the development Of the disease if taken
the first approach of its premonitOry symptoms.
It Is not only the best remedy ever vet discovered
for this class of complaints, but also the cheapest.
The large quantity we supply for dollar brings it
within the reach Of every body; and in bilious
districts where FEVER AND AGUE prevails, every
body should have it and use it freely both for cure
and protection. 1t is hoped this price viii place it
within the reach of all = the poor as well as the
Tieh. a great superiority Of this remedy over any
other ever discovered for the speedy and certain
cure of Intermittents is that it contains Qunine
or mineral, consequently it produces no quinism
other injurious effects whatever upon the constitu
ton. Those cured by it are left as healthy as if
they had never had the disease.
Fever and Ague is not alone the consequence of
the miasmatic poison. A great variety of disorders
arise from its irritation, among which are Neural
gia, rheumatism, Gout, Headache, Blindness,
TOothache. Earaehe, Catarrh, Asthma, PalpitatiOn,
Painful Affection of the Spleen, Mysteries, Pain in
the Bowels, Collie, Paralysis, and Derangement Of
the Stomach, all of which, when originating in
this cause, put the intermittent type, become
periodical. This "CURE expels the poison from
the blood, and consequently cures them all alike.
1t is an invaluable protection to immigrants and
persons travelling or temporarily residing in the
malarious districts. If taken occasionally daily
while exposed to the infection, that viii be
ted from the system, and cannot accumulate in
sufficient quantity to npen into disease. Hence it
is even more valuable for protection than cure, and
few will ever suffer from InteTmittents, if they
avail themselves Of the protection this remedy
affords.
