A Riot in Newark.

NEWARK, June ia squad of police
was called out about o'clock last evening,
to quell small riot. An Episcopal Church,
Trinity, located on the Military Park, in the
centre of the city, recently resolved to en-
large their edifce by an addition in the rear
which would be wholly built on the public
park, and take in one Of the broad walks
which for centuries has remained undisturb-
ed, the park being laid out in 1866. Advun-
tage has been taken by the church people of
the fact there is no State Chancellor, and
consequently no I'M junction can be got to re-.
strain them. They have the authority of
the Common Council to make the enlarge
ment, but it is claimed that the Council has
no power to grant such privilege, and, indeed,
that the Church has no right on that park at
ALL Some Of our prominent citizens have
taken the matter into their own hands, and
this evening destroyed with axes fence that
had been erected IA u commencement OF the
work of building. There is much excitement
and all attempts to build will be undoubted-
ly resisted by the citi2ens.

Ths Nsxt Great Battle.

1t is quite probable that the next steamer
from Europe will bring the news Of the first
great and decisive encounter between the
armies OF France and Austria. At the last
accounts the headquarters OF the French
Emperor were at Nercelli, and the allied nl-
my, in the form of u crescent, including Gari-
haidl- division, extended from Como L. Mon
tebello. in direct line about ninety miles
long, with Milan lying about halfway be,
tween. The Austrian army Is concentrated
in front of Milan, the capital Of Lambardy,
right beyond Noyarii, which the French had
entered on the lst, the AuStrians having 70
treated across the Ticlno. The Two armies
ar, inrc to iucc, and 50 close IT, each other
that further mammverInS Is impossible, and
an engagement between any ut the divisions
is likely to bring on general action. Some
where in the ncighhorhuoI Of Builul"ra. II -
probable. that this battle will be fought. the
Austrians making determined stand AT tlI"
Ticino to protect Milan. 1t seems L. hr grm.
orally expected that the Austriuns will b"
driven back la the fortified towns OF Mnnlnn.
Verona, and Pesehieru, from which II wall
require some hard fighting to dislodge them.
The French journals already anticipate the
entrance Of the French army into the heart "f
LOmhardy and expect then that Austria will
be forced by Europe to abandon tho war at
the expense 81 her Italian possessions. The
realization of these uuticipntions will depend
in II great measure upon the result Of the
next encounter.

Gen. Wool on the European War.

General Wool has written letter t"
gentleman IN Troy, in which he expresses
his opinions III relation T." the war now be-
ing wuged III Italy. Opinions from So emf
nent q military source will interest the pub
lie. The substance of this letter is this:
1t is his opinion that the war in behalf Of
the people of Italy by the Emperor of France
against Austria, portends anything but their
civilization and independence. A million
and Il half "f men in arms can he of 10 ben
eft IT, France. Austria or Italy.
The declaration Of the Emperor of France,
that he will give civilization and indcren
dence' To Italy, would lnnk more plausible
but for the fact that while he would release
her people from desp"tic rule, there is Il na
| tlonal debt "f nearly az quite tw" thousand
million dollars Expressing the wealth aud in
dustry Of his own pile, which can never
! he cancelled besides the expense Of an army
Of eight hundred thousand men.
! Gen. wool thinks the Emperor OF the
French will not be contentcd with merely
Wrestling from Austria he" italiun depei-
denotes. He thinks there must be some
other motive that has prompted Napoleon 10
organize II military force, unparalleled for
magnitude aud efficiency in the history Of
opposition of Austria and England to the
! giant strides Of Napoean to universal do
ninion over Europe, aud the treuchery of
Austria i'll her abandonment Of him OH his
disastrous return from Moscow, which sent
him to Elba, and in his defeat at Waterl""
all these may have induced Napoleon Ill
into the present war, rs the onl mode Of OBJ
tanning the revenge he seeks. His wrath
can be appeased III no other way than III
furnishing Austria and England.
Gen. Wool concludes his very able letter as
follows:
The people Of Italy are struggling for
what Louis Napoleon has promised them,
civilization and independence" When the
contest is over. no matter which Of the two
Emperors succeeds, IL Te-Deum will he sung
in all the churches, in honor of the glorious,
success of his Imperial Majesty, but no Te-
Deum will be sung in honor of the people
Their Glory will consist in seeing their beau
tilul country laid waste, and themselves left
destitute and hel pless, and thus ii will be
until another Emperor devastatos the land of
the Caesars, Whose word ut one time was
law to all Europe under the disgu se OF
giving the people civilization and indepen-
dence.'

Narrow Escape Of q Diver.

Captain Glennic, noted diver in the ger
vice Of the st. Johns Diving Company. had a
very narrow escape from death near st. John,
\. b., on Saturday last. \ letter to ono ol
the Boston owners of the Company gives the
following particulars of the occurrences
Captain Glennie had been under water
for two hours. looking for n mooring anchor,
and had Just decided to come up, when the
hose burst in the boat and the air once escil-
ping, the pressure OF the water against his
dress drove the blood from the lower parts OF
his body to his head aud neck, where the
helmet kept the water off, and vacuum
was created. His head swellcd to nearly
double size, and the blood rushed out through
every pore. He was drawn up Immediately
say in about one mnute-but was wholly
inscnsble, and those present thought him
dead. lie was completely black. In about
an hour lie came TO his senses. vomitcd up
some blood, and commenced to improve
He has been doing well ever since, and hope
will be able to leave his bed in week or ten
days. lie has had a very narrow escape
from death"

Frauds upon the Public.

The post Office and the mails are frequent
~ employed to impose upon the credulity Of
the public, perverting to bad purposes all IN
stitution established for the good and conye-
nience of society.
The attention of the postmaster of Wash
ington has been recently called to an adyer.
tisement in one of the southern newspapers,
purporting to he from Dr.. j. Marshall. OF
this city, OF a nature that should place the
man employing such means for lucre beyond
the pale oi society. The name being nm as
sumed or fictitious one, the postmaster has
at once promptly declined delivering the let
tiers addressed to this fictitious name, under
the provisions ef the instructions and regu-
lations of the Post Office Department, and
will send them, in due season, to the dead
letter Office that if any should he found to
contain money they may lie returned to the
writers. 1t may yet become necessary to
expose and punish the person who has made
use of such unworthy means to make money.

Tha Realities of War.

This game at which monarchs play is eX-
citing. But let those possessed of the nOblest
| feelings Of human nature--compasslon and
magnaminity or those capable of imugin-
ing the sutferings of individuals aud the ru-
in of families, read this picture Of the field
| Of Montebello by an eyewitness, and then
go for war with what appetite they may:
The day after the engagement visited
the battlefield Alas, it is sad thing To
do; all the glory and pomp of war fades into
insignifcanrc before the utter misery and
desoation of battlefield the day after the
action. AT the time arrived the bodies of
the dead had been collected and were lying
in rows near the cemetery; the faces Of the
men were covered over, and near them stood
those of their comrades whose duty it was
to bury them. In II heap. piled apart from
the rest recognised, from the uniforms. the
bodies of the officers who had died bravely
facing the enemy. lf you have never wit
messed such sight, | advise you never to do
80 as long az you may avoid it; ones reflec
tons are not gay; DEATH in all its Most re-
Voting aspect, taces you, forcing upon your
mind the suffering that must ensue when
the loss Of the men You see stretched llieless
before you becomes known to their families.
How many poor mother, thought l. Is wait
ing in an agony of hope and fear the list of
the killed and wounded, to know whether
her darling son is a among them How
great her despair when she ascertains that
the hope Of her old age, her sor, who only Il
short time since parted from her in all the
huoyancy of hope and health, has fallen,
and that his body lies fur from her-thnt IL
mothers tears may not even fall upon his
grave! The subject is too melancholy to
dwell upon change it ut once"

Strange Providence.

\ correspondent writes to Boston paper
from Franklin, as follows:
a melancholy providence is connected
with the death Of Mr.. DE Witt. His only
daughter resides in Buffalo. About week
or ten days before her fathers death, she re-
ceiveda telegrap hic dispatch from Chicago,
announcing that her husband, who had gone
there on business, was nigh unto death
She FASTENED thther, and arrived in season
to see him die. On the day following, she
returned with his remains to Buffalo, where
he was buried on the Saturday, previous
to her fathers death. On Monday after his
burial she wrote to her father, who was dead
when the letter reached Franklin. On that
evening telegraphic despach announced the
death of her father to her. She left Buffalo
in order to attend the funeral, and was on
the train of cars that was thrown from the
track down the cmbankment two weeks yes
terday, the conductor being killed, and seven
teen injured. The car in which she was,
rolled over three times. She was considera
bly, injured, but reached Franklin i'll season
to attend the funeral"
