NEW YORK, April ia report submitted to the
board of health to-day by Dr. Stone, one of its men,
bers, expresses the opinion that the cholera will,
doubtless, visit this city very soon, and states that

but one hulk in the harbOr fit for quarantine, or ca.
pabe of accommodating more than three hundred
persons and that will visit its previous haunts here
and in Brooklyn, and be developed and dissent
mated in filthy districts. In conclusion the report
recommends the Governor to issue an address set
ting forth the imminence of danger from the dreaded
visitor and proclamation giving the board OF
health power over expenditures for of the sick
power to close and suppress all buildings dangerous
to public health, and exercise sanitary control till
July l5 then to cease if no disease is apparent but
otherwise 70 remain in force till September Is.

Arrival OF the Steamship sa1onia.

NEW YORK, April 15.-The steamship Saxonia
from Hamburg, via Southampton 4th inst, has ar
rived. The following is a summary of the general
news r
The Times city article says the English funds had
advanced in consequence OF the less threatening
character of the accounts from Germany, coupled
with the rumor of mediation in the affairs of Austria
and Prussia.
A Vienna letter says such arrangements have
been made that Austria could mobilize 10000
troops in a fortnight.
A Berlin telegram says it Is believed that in reply
to despatch from the Austrian Ambassador, Prus-
STA will state that she also has no intention of fol-
lowing an aggressive policy, but would desire an
explanation respecting the movements of Austria.
Florence kilograms announce the formation Of
camp of 10000 men at Bologne; that the principal
generals of the Italian army are summoned to meet
there that an Italian squadron is forming to cruise
in the Adriatic and that military preparations are
going on in Venice. On the contrary Paris letter
denies the rumors of the Italian loan and arma.
ments, and also the rumor that an understanding
has been agreed upon between Italy and Prussia
Shanghai advices of March state that the Impe-
rial troops gained complete victory over the rebels
in the north of China, and that $4,000 of the latter
had been slaughtered or captured.
The anticipation of war between Austria and
Prussia has made most unfavorable impression on
commercial affairs throughout France. The appre-
hension is, that if these powers go to war, France
cannot, even if she would, maintain neutrality.
1t is stated that the attempts to win the minor
German States to Prussia have entirely failed The
States will preserve an armed neutrality. kilograms
from Vienna mention rumors Of the peaceful solu-
ton Of the Schleswig Hosten question being preva-
lent, and had produced most favorable impression.

Negro Suffrage the Issue.

no Negro Suffrage is not the issue before the
people, say the Radicals. Governor Swami in
his speech on Thursday last says il is the issue,
and an issue ''well made and "a most vitaP'
one;and he being the Governor, claimed to be cleo
ted by them, they should place confidence in his
assertions. lie says, in speaking on this point,
~ believe that if this ultra radical faction is not
promptly checked by the popular voice it cannot
fail to precipitate such a result.'
lie further says :-''Will they tell the people
of Maryland that the party who voted for
negro suffrage in the District of Columbia are
not ready, whenever they have the power, TO do
the same thing over again. They insist that ne
gro suffrage is no issue in this State: Is it not high
time that it should be made an issue, and that
those who are in accord with this negro suffrage
and forced negro equsity party should be made
to stand up and be tried upon it."
