The following letter from the last num-
Der Of the Marion Herald suits our STYLE
1t is from JAMES j. BRowy, who says -
THAT the unfav orable reports have caused
many who were en- route for the mines to
turn back. Not one of the Marion boys talk
of finching-each one is determined to see
the Elephant for himself" In speaking of
the mining prospect he says, " presume you
are sollcitous to know whether the mines are
humhug or not. My dear sir, you know
as much about it as the writer, although he
is only some one hundred and fifty miles
from the far famed Cherry Greek. know
no more and am no better satisfied than
when left home in reference to the exist
ence of rich gold deposits in that section of
country. 1t is uttery impossible to arrive
at satisfactory conclusion. Conflicting
reports, Numerically opposed are adout.
We have met some Of the miners returning.
who give an unfavorable account of thcpros-
pect, &c. Others again, from the same re-
gou, give US fattering reports. As the mat
ter now stands, should not be surprised if
the whole thing was IA humbug-neither
would be surprised if that section should
prove to be second California. certain
ly in the present aspect Of things, would not
advise any one to forsake regular paying
business to embark in the uncertainties of
this trip. Within very brief neriod, the
truth will be elected and more fully deyel-
oped one way or the other"

The steamship Harmonic from New York,
arrived at Southampton on the 29th ult., en-
route for Hamburg.
The Austrians, 100, 900 strong, are said to
have crossed the Ticino. The report had
not been totally confirmed. There had been
no actual conflict as yet.
The French troops were passing into Pied
mont.
TUSCANY had Joined Piedmont and France.
The French Russian alliance was denied,
but the Times had published the provisions
of the treaty, causing q great panic IN the
London stock exchange. Consols ut once
went down to SO. About 40 failures occur
red owing to the war crisis.
1t was telegraphed from various sources,
that on the night Of the Goth, 100, 900 men
under the Commander in. Chief, Gen. Gyu-
Ia, crossed the Ticino in three divisions and
took the road towards Novana, and that they
afterwards blew up the bridge of Buffiara.
The news lacks official confirmation, and
some doubts were felt as to its truth.
1t was also reported that Austria had ac-
cepted the proffered mediation OF England,
postpon the declaration Of war.
France had not accepted England's offer
of mediation, but was said to be considering
1t.
The Paris Constitutional and the Daily
heUs DENY the reported alliance between
France and Russia. The latter says that the
document signed is mere convention. The
Times confesses to give the provisions OF
the treaty, and draws the most threatening
consequences from them, regarding the ALL
ance as menace to England, inasmuch as
Russia guarantees the services OF her heet IN
the Mediterranean and Baltic, in addition to
the army Of observation on the Austrian
frontier.
The King of Sardinia had issued a procla-
nation to the army, saying he regarded Aus
tria's ultimatum are an insult, and rejected
it with disdain.
The French troops we're landing at Genoa
in large numbers. They were most eh'h"-
siastically received. =.
The King of Sardinia had gone to join
France and Piedmont, and declare war
against Austria. -.
Tuscany had declared in favor of mill
tay dictatorship.
Warlike preparations were going forward
rapidly in England. At Wolwich there was
great activity. The Government had char-
Cunard's screw steamer Etna and number
of othervessels to convey troops and ammu-
milton to the Mediterranean.
The were rumors that proclamation
would be issued, calling for 10000 men tor
the navy.
War premiums were being generally de-
manded ut Lloyds.
There was Il great panic in London, and
consols fuctuated excessively.
LArEsr.-The Austrian manifesto is con-
sidcred as tuntamount to q declaration OF
war.
The AuStrians have crossed the LIcIno,
and hos,ilitles have commenced. This Is
official.
A Geographic dispach was received from
New York this morning, announcing the ar
rival of another steamer, bringing news that
France declared war against Austria.
There was intense excitement IN New \ OK
last evening. Flour Immediately went up 81
cents per barrel.

A correspondent Of the Detroit advertiser
writing from jackson gives long and graph
ic description of Democratic meeting held
in that city few days since by that portion
of the party who are indignant at certain
appointments recently made in that State
The immediate cause of the excited state of
feelings which resulted in arousing the ire
of the hitherto Faithful was the change of
Post Masters at jackson. The speeches
made on the occasion were typical of the
genuine harmony which prevails in the
ranks of the unterrifed. Amongst those
who came in for good share Of the anath-
mas Of the assemblage was Mr.. Cooper, who
by fraudulent votes was enabled to secure a
certificate of election to Congress.
We enjoy all such evidences of fraternal
regard, and hope that they may continue to
prevail. The party is however so hopelessly
wrecked that these repeated quarrels are not
necessary, and are only desirable because
they serve to show how bitter is the enmity
of those whose love has been turned to hate.
The finale of the proceedings of the meet
ing was the burning in efhgy of the newly
appointed Post Master Toledo Blade.
