New YORK, May 25.-A Venice
letter, dated May 3, states that Aus
tria has been making extensive prep
arations for war both with Italy and
Prussia since the inception of the
German difficulty, and she was at the
latest moment well prepared for 2
bloody defense of her position OH the
frontiers Of both countries. The
writer says that the Italians in and
around Venice were not particularly
excited. They look for sharp
and decisive struggle, and curiously
enough expect a ready adjustment Of
the Austro- Italian question as re-
suit.
News from Hon duras to the 4th is
to the effect that bands of Indians
from Yucatan had made raid on the
mahogany cutters, on the Rio Briaro,
and plundered every one they could
find. Considerable excitement was
manifested at the Balize on the occa-
sion of the raid, as it was feared other
gangs would make similar moves
ment.

says the trial of jeff Davis under the

until this subsidies the Attorney Gen
