Our Town The Rockingham Regis
ter says We made flying visit to our
sister city, Staunton, last week, and were
pleased to notice the spirit Of activity and
enterprise which prevailed in all branches
of business. Among the improvements
now in process of rapid completion, we
noticed two extensive buildings designed
for Foundries- by Messrs. Roberts,
Nelson & Hartman, and the otherby Burke
& Kunkle, both on Lewis Creek, right in
the centre of town. We, also, observed
large and handsome building being cree
ted by our friends, John & Y. NJ. Bickle,
intended for Cabinet Makers Shop and
Furniture Warehouse The proprietors
are both practical and finished workmen,
and purpose carrying on business com
mensurate, not only with the increasing
demands Of their own people, but that Of
the adjacent counties.

Rumored oession of venetia to Italy.

.
The teverish anxiety concerning our credit
and means has blinded the people to the war
cloud ready to break over Europe. Three
days ago the telegrams were looked at the first
thing. Now the city articles are sDatched up.
Clearly it viii be useless for any OF the con-
tending powers to come to England for money.
So far this crisis may be productive of GOOD.
Could we forget the stock market for while.
perhaps we should see CLEANS of sunshine
abroad. dare not attach much belief to the
report that it should be mentioned among the
few hopeful things OF the day; that Austria
has been listening to the voice of England
and possibly OF France, and is hesitating a.
to whetherit would not be wise to treat with
Italy for the cession of Venetia. What a re-
lief this would be to the liberals of Euroael
1t would be an act of sublime courage on the
part OF Austria. 1t would give her the low
er to face Prussia without any dread. 1t
would be worth millions of money and hun
dreds of thousands OF men. During the
week we have had private information from
Vienna, that the appearance IN the English
press of articles advising this course, and
dwelling upon its fitness and its consistency
with Austrian honor, would be Of service to a
party of statesmen who were urging it uuon
the Emperor, and almost simultaneously our
press has spoken with moderation and iudc-
ment in that sense; blt such debating may
have come too late. .s.a r .sa.t L.. :.
Italy, in the meantime, is right i'm pressing
"a on her ornaments. II she recedes, she has
no chance. The summons to Garibaldi is the
most serious of her proceedings, for GaribalLi,
with twenty battaions of volunteers, will not
wait for orders from the Tuileries nor for
Z the convenience of Italian diplomatists. IF
he leaves Caprera it will be for immediate bat
tie, and only the actual handing over of We
netia will stop him. Thus the situation is
strained to the utmost. We prefer Austria to
Prussia, and would be glad to see the Prussians
defeated; but we sympathize with Italy much
more. The Italian gentlemen here are maxi
ing prodisious efforts to assist their country
men. They have this week formed a COM
mittee of aid, and have dispatched several
young fellows who are anxious to serve ln-
der Garibaldi; and they will themselves equip
considerable band of ltalign volunteers.
have many friends amongst them, and /
find they are unanimous in favor of taking
advantage OF the dispute with Prussia, to get
back their noble city OF Venice. They are
uneasy at the same time lest France should
insist upon fresh slice of Italian territory,
and they get flushed and excited as they talk
OF the French designs upon the Island Of Sar-
dinia. The Mazzinian section would oppose
this to the last, but If Venetia was obtained.
fancy the present ministry in Italy would
not have rupture with France about the
question. The Emperor Napoleon is playing
his cards well.--much better than he did when
he inteffered with the Mexicans.
