The difficulties in reference to the sur

ACrete letter to the New York Tribune
saysthe mortality in the Turkish army
continues, and is almost unexampled. OF
the $4,000 Egyptians who went to Crete a
year ago there only remain from three to
six thousand The same state Of things
exists, more or less, among the Turkish
troops. They show signs Of exhaustion
and decentralization which can hardly be
mistaken.
r. A special from San Francisco says the
French and English Ministers at the Sand
WITCH Islands cavil at the treaty of the
@ United States, and feel chagrined at the
advantages sure to accrue to this govern
ment. Leprosy is making fearful havoc
among the natives The victims are num-
bered by hundreds. A separate tract OF
land is devoted to the sole use of the COM
=, munity Of lepers. Only one foreigner,
German, had been attacked.
The Court Journal has discovered that
women imay vote under the Reform Bill
which has lately become the law of Eng
land. Its mode of reasoning is this: The
act of 1850, for shortening the language
used in the acts of parliament, provides
that in all acts words importing the mas
culine gender shall be deemed and taken
to include females, &c, unless the contrary
is expressly provided. Now the new Re
form Bill has not expressed the contrary,
and therefore women are safe to vote If
they. like.
An annual report estimates the wheat
crop in England and Scotland to be under
the average; barley, ten per cent. above
average oats, fifteen per cent. above ay-
z erage; beans, fully average, and peas
much below average. The potato crop is
producing an average yield, but the quail
ty from an excessive moisture in the soil,
is rather Inferior In the western and
southwestern counties of England the dis
ease is very general The turnip crop gen.
orally is singularly good; pastures very
abundant, and larger and better yield of
hay was never secured in England.
At the little walled town Of Genzano,
fifteen miles from Rome, they had lately
,, an odd fight-no less than giving battle to
the cholera with firearms. From fear OF
infection, the citizens had prohibited the
entrance within the walls of all persons
coming from other towns. A detachment
of hundred Papal soldiers arriving at
that station, the gates were closed against
them. The soldiers, determined to enter,
commenced the attack. The citizens de-
Tended their walls bravely, and beat back
their beseigers. Fourteen of the soldiers
were killed, and large number wounded.
The account does not give the loss, if any,
on the other side.
A cable dispatch from Florence, Italy,
SAYS General Garibaldi has issued a stir
ring address announcing that the time has
now come for them to overthrow the ty-
ranny of the Pope and restore Rome to
Italy, and give the Eternal City its ancient
supremacy as capital Of the italian States.
A proclamation has also been promulgated
by King Victor Emanuel, warning all Ital-
ians against taking part in, aiding or abet-
ting the revolutionary movement against
Rome, which is denounced as crime
against the laws of Italy, The proclama-
ton concludes with threat that the Gov
eminent will not fail to visit with rigorous
punishment all persons found engaged in
Illegal hostilities against the Papal author

Count Bismarck recently addressed a
circular note to the diplomatic representa-
tive of Prussia in regard to the interview
between Napoleon and Francis Joseph al
Salzburg. The document has just been
published, and is the principal subject of
editorial discussion in English and CONT
mental newspapers. Bismark says Prussia
is willing to accept the representations
made by France, that the Conference at
Salzburg should be regarded as pledge of
peace. He also makes many allusious to
the union of German States The London
journals comment with favor upon this
note, regarding it as pacific and tranquil
izing. The French press, while they seem
disposed to find but little fault with what
Bismark says, denounee the circular be-
cause in all its references to German unity
it completely ignores the treaty of Prague,
and omits all allusion to the obligation un-
der which Prussia rests to fulfill the stipu-
lations of that solemn compact.
The Herald's City of Mexico despatch,
September 18th, says the remains of Maxi
milan have arrived there from Queretaro.
Notwithstanding the difficulties placed in
Admiral Tegethof's way, there is every
probability that the remains will be deliv-
cred to the envoy of the Austrian Imperial
House. The Palace was to be Illuminated
on the 10th, and the day generally celebra-
ted. All the converts are to be devoted to
public use. The telegraph from Jalappa
