New York, July a4.-The Moscow Ga.
.ette of July 18th contains the following
highly important announcement
"Russia does not desire any change In
The present state of things in Europe. II
Austria and Prussia will render themselves
tools of France, Russia can no longer de-
mend on them, as heretofore. Venetia
without Rome would constitute no pro-
gress for Italy. The submission Of Aus
tria to France IS not advantageous, but
dangerous to the European equilibrium.
The supremacy of Prussia in northern
Germany narrows of Russia In the Baltic.
Russia's love Of peace does not sanction
the efforts to attain supreme power. Eng
lands interest may make her seek an al
lance with France and Austria In the ex-
istinr question, but the dictatorship of
France in Italy and Germany cannot meet
with her support"
A dispatch from Florence, July Is, says :
"Tbe Court of Berlin has declared to
the Italian Cabinet that an armistice on
the basis of the cession of Venetia is in
admissible. The Italian Government, in
reply, is said to have announced its rcso-
luton to continue offensive operations
against the Austrian Emperor without re-
taxation in conformity with the engage
meut mutually entered into by Prussia
and Italy until both of these Powers have
obtained from Austria satisfactory terms
for the conclusion of peace"
The Nacion, of Florence, of July 18th
publishes statement Of the conditions for
an armistice stipulated by Prussia and
Italy. The former Power demanded the
exclusion of Austria from the Germanic
Confederation. The Nacion adds: "This
was admitted by France, who undertook
to obtain the assent Of the Vienna Cabi-
net to the evacuation by Austria of the
Austrian provinces occupied by Prussia
during the armistice. On the part OF
Italy, the conditions were the cession OF
the Italian territories under Austrian do.
minion, including the Italian portion of the
Tyrol. Austria was to make the ccssion
direct to Italy, without compensation, and
not to raise the Roman question during
the negotiations for peace. 1t appears that
these conditions have been found inadmis-
siblc at Vienna, and that the Austrian
Government has resolved to try the for
tunes of war;"
Vienna dispatches state that the Aus
trian forces in Vcnctia are being with
drawn from before the Italians, but that
the fortresses remain strongly garrisoned
for defence, without support from the
army.
La France of the 18th says the attack OF
the Italians upon Venetia renders Prince
Napolcon's measure futile, and it has
been abandoned.
The Emperor of Austria is making con-
cessions to Hungary. lie announces that
the CONSUMPTION is suspended, and calls
upon the Hungarians to volunteer.

EVILS OF ADvERTIsING.-The old Greek
proverb that " there is many slip between
the cup and the lip" is likely to be again
verified in the case Of the great estate
which was said to have fallen to Mr..
Walker, of Hartford, Conn.,, by the death
of some distant relatives in England. The
announcement of this piece Of good luck
has been pretty extensively advertised in
the papers of the United States, and the
result has brought to light q long lost
brother of Mrs. Walkers father, Mr.. John
Church, living near Buffalo, n. Y, who,
by reason of his priority of birth, claims to
have . better title to the property.

this bill proposes to include in the dutiable

tariff is already burdensome and if this
hard measure passes, it will DO adding out

Ny Dear Brother,-I suffer much less
now than when I first left Richmond two
weeks ago, but am yet too weak to do
much. Ny face and mouth greatly i'm
proved, my fifth rib yet tender and occa-
sionally painful. After all, am constantly
planning yet again to preach the unsearch-
able riches and visit some of the annual
conferences this fall.
l shall never forget the kind sympathies
of that dear family who entertained me
and mine for ten days at their house near
Coaliield, nor of the doctors who waited
on me day and night, as kind as sons.
/ was two weeks at the house of my
long-tried friend and his hospitable family,
where no pains were spared to administer
to my comfort, and where friends could
visit me without restraint. The kind soli-
citude of ministers, of editors, Of citizens,
of old and young friends, and last, but not
least, the constant attention Of the ladies,
who have always been messengers Of good
to me, are gratefully remembered.
