Six were reported in Brooklyn. DR.. Cali
houn, Medical Inspector of Harris Island,
has the cholera, and is not expected to re-
cover There are many cases reported on
that island.
The New York Commercial -Aduertiser says:
"Facts show eonclusively that the cholera
now raging in certain portions of the city
is the epidemic pursuing its incipient stages,
beginning in regions most favorably dis
posed for its development. The facts in re-
lation to the number of cases on Harris
Island were deemed so appalling that pub
licity was denied. Surgeon Calhoun, of
that post, has died of cholera, and an able
corps Of physicians has been sent to that
island, and also to Governors Island.'

Foreign News.

The Italian Government is fitting out two
monitors, under the auspices of late officer
in the United States navy.
A new naturalization law has been pro-
mulgated, which gives any foreigner the
right to become citizen of Mexico in
twenty -four hours after his arrival, by re-
nouncing his allegiance to his native coun-
try, and having some visible means of sup
port.
The large American emigrant ship Mon
arch of the Seas, which sailed from Liver
pool on the 10Th of March last for New
York, has been four months at sea, and
fears are entertained that some direful dis
aster has overtaken her, and that she has
gone to the bottom with all on board. She
had six hundred and seventy-four passen-
gers and crew of ffty-four men, including
officers. The vessel was valued at $125, 900
and is fully insured.
European dates to the 9Th are of the
highest Importance. After a series of brill

lost heavily, both in numbers and prestige,
decisive battle was fought on the Sd, near
Sudowa, village Of Bohemia, in which the
entire grand armies on both sides were en-
gagged. Field Marshal Benedek commanded
the Arstrians, and Frederick William led
the Prussians in person. The Prussians
obtained complete victory, driving the
Austrians from the field IN confusion, and
capturing some 14,000 prisoners. On the
following day, Fl Id Marshal Won Gablenz
came in person within the Prussian lines,
bearing flag Of truce, the purport Of which
is not telegraphed.
Content with her semblance of success in
Venetia, Austria has accepted the sugges-
ton of Napoleon, and proposed to cede
Venetia to France, and accept Napoleon's
mediation, which the latter has accordingly
undertaken, and has already communicated
with the Kings of Prussia and Italy, pro-
posing an armistice. The cession of Vene-
tia is made in reality to Italy, although it is
done though France, in order to avoid the
appearance of surrender, on the part of
Austria, under compulsion, to an armed
enemy. 1t is stated that, in London COM
mereial circles, peace is regarded as virtu-
ally concluded. A Congress of Powers is
considered probable, when France will pro-
pose general disarmament. Since the
days Of the first Napoleon, history shows
no grand campaign SO brilliant, and so i'm
portant in its results, as that with which
Prussia has opened, and, it seems probable,
virtually concluded, the war in which
she SO precipitately engaged. Lord Der

The Child Murder.

Some time since we published an account
OF preacher, at Medina, N. Y, who whip
ped his child to death, in the attempt to
"break its will" A lady, writing from
Medina to her son in Goshen, draws the
following grapic picture of the horrible
atrocity:
g You knew joel Lindsey, I believe ;
well, a week ago last Monday night he
whipped his little boy to death, because he
would not say Ills prayers. He was little
child, between three and four years old, his
mother died near three years ago, and Joel
married Frank Mobiles last spring. I think
you knew her folks, they live out west of
Ferbys. She went up stairs to put the lit
tie fellow to bed, and he refused to say his
prayers, so she whipped him some, and
went down and Joel went up, and whipped
nm two hours and half, and. then carried
him down and told his wife he wished she
would get up, for Johnny acted very strange,
and he did MT know what was the matter
with him; well, he died right away. Gill
bert's wife went over and laid the little one
out. Gilbert went to Millville next fore
noon, and told that Joeps child was dead.
and he did not know what killed the child.
but that Joel had been correcting it. The
Ieighbors went in and thought they acted
strange. Wednesday morning he was
to be buried. In the morning, when they
were all ready, to their great surprise the
Coroner made his appearance, to hold an
inquest over the body. He had a jury of
fifteen men. They were six hours making
the examination. They say they never saw
such sight before, and asked Joel what
he whipped the child with. He said a shin
gle, sometimes with the fat side and then
with the edges but, oh. such a sight, his
little fingers were all in strings, the nails
gone, and the bones broken, his legs all
jelly, and the bottom of his feet blistered.
and pieces of flesh gone out of them, his
shoulders and neck, and the sides of his
head all black. They looked around and
found a tub full of bloody clothes to soak:
and the verdict was murder.

mittee of Conference was agreed to on the
bill to provide for the safety of the lives of
passengers on board vessels propelled by
steam......The report on the Conkling Fry
charges was called up, and resolutions in
accordance Herewith adopted by SO to 4.
The report completely exonerates Mr.. Conk-
ling from the charges made by General Fry,
and is very severe on the latter. The
Committee of Conference on the Diplomatic
Appropriation bill made a report, which was
agreed to......A legislative skirmish, of con-
siderable excitement, ensued upon motion
looking to the recognition of Tennessee as a
State IN the Union, she having ratified the

of Ohio, rebelled against the leadership of

instruments of persecution against loyal

BY which the manib in feels his way
Out from tue shore Of the great unknown,
Blind and wailing and alone,
Into the light Of day!
Out from the shore Of the unknown sea,
Tossing in pitiful agony
Of the unknown sea that reels and rolls,
Specked with the barks Of little souls
Banks that were launched On the other side,
And slipped from heaven On an ebbing tidel

What does he think Of his mothers breast
Bare and beautiful smooth and white,
Seeking it ever with fresh delight
Cup Of his life and couch Of his re q
