THE EUROPEAN WAR.
Three Prussian Armies moved simulta
neously, about the 25th of June, upon the
Austrian frontiers. The Army of the Elbe,
forming the right wing, entered Bohemia
by way of Saxony; the centre, under the
Crown Prince, Frederick Charles, moved
into Upper Silesia, and by way of Glatz took
the same district on the flank, aiming, per
haps, after beating the Austrians, to form a
junction with the right wing, and move upon
Prague. The third, or extreme, left of the
extended and mighty host, moved in the op
posite direction.from the centre,. and sought
to penetrate Gallicia, or Austrian Poland,
which borders on Silesia to the east. Of the
subsequent movements of the right and cen
tre, we gather the following summary.
The Array of the Elbe having eccupied,
Reichenberg on the 25th .of June, advanced,
without meeting with any resistance, on the
26th to Turnau. Here a battle was fought,
of which the Prussians say the Army of the
Elbe took seven officers and five hundred men
prisoners. The cavalry had several engage
ments, and the Austrians suffered heavy
losses. The 3d Corps took 1000 prisoners.
An Austrian dispatch mentions that, subse
quently, the Prussians advanced even so far
as Gitschin (or Jicin,) bat at this place they
were so thoroughly defeated by Gen. Edel
sheim, that they had to evacuate Melnik,
Daubs and Leipa, and retreat to Niemes, a
town near the Saxon frontier.
The Army of Silesia, under command of
the Crown Prince, had entered Bohemia on
the 26th of June, one column descending
from the north upon Trautenau, and the
other advancing from Glatz upon Ntuihod.
Both columns were engaged with the enemy
on the 27th and the 28th, the former at Trau
tenmil the litter at Nachodand Skalliez. The
Prussian dispatches in regard to this army
are as follows :
".13Faum, June 29, 11.15. A. M. The
Austrian's were defeated on the 27th and 28th
inst., near Nachod, by our First Army Corps;
on the 28th, at Trautenau; by, !the - Corps of
the G-uards, and at Munchengratz by Prince
Frederia Charles. At Trautenau the Aus
trians had from 3000 to 4000 killed and
wounded, and lost several thousand prison
ers. Our loss at the same place was 1000.
men.
" BERLIN, aune 29, 1896.—The Corps of
the Guards yesterday defeated the Tenth
Austrian Army Corps, under Gen. Gablenz,
after an obstinate engagement. The Aus
trians lost several thousand prisons, some
field pieces, and a large quantity of war ma
terial.
" Yesterday, the Prussian Fifth Corps,
under Gen. Steinmetz, which, on the 27th
inst., drcive back, the-Austrian Corps -to Jo
sephstadt, again compelled" the enemy to
retire after a severe contest., Numerous
trophies wera'captured by the Prusians."
The latest despatch from`the Austrian side
triumphantly announces that the Prussians
were finally, on the 28th, completely defeat
ed, leaving one-third of their army killed
and wounded, and, that they thereitrion with
drew to Prussian territory, toward Glatz.
On the other hand, there is a Prussian
dispatch dated on the• field of battle, Man-
chengratz, June 28. , 10 P. M., in the follow
ing terms :—" Prince Frederick Charles has
to-day driven back the Austrians from Podol
to beyond Munohengratz with great loss, and
has`made some 1000 prisoners. The Prus
sian loss was inconsiderable:"
Still another:—
"BERLIN, June 29.—Prince.Frederick
Charles in junction with Gen. Herrwarth
Bitterfel
d, captured Munchengratz yester
day, after a successful engagement with the
Austrians, capturing .800 prisoners. The
enemy retired to Furbterilanek with the loss
of 2000 men. The Piussian loss was much
less."
Furstenbriack hi; 25 or 30 miles within Bo
hemian territory.
Meanwhile Prussia continues to revolution
ize in the smaller States who have dared to
oppose her. Besides declaring the incorpora
tion of the, territory of . Hesse Cassel,, as me
understand, into . lier,Owa, she has replaed the
principal functionaries in Saxony. and Han
over.
The opponents of Prussia in these States
can do but little: 15,000 Baden troops will
occupy a position between Darmstadt and
Frankfort, and will be reinforced by available
Federal fores. • .
In Hungary, there is talk of an insurrec
tion. against Austria. 'Divided counsels,
however, are likely to rob it of efficiency.
The first.we hear of it is, that a schism has
taken place in the camp
. of theliberals. The
Deak party ispppoSed . to anyinsurrectionin
Hungary unless Austria meets with a defeat
from Prussia or Italy; while the other faction
of the Liberals is in favor of' au immediate
insurrection, which would assist Italy and
Prussia. .The latter faction has extensive
ramifications in Croatia, Dalmatia, and Illy
ria. In Crotia especially, Italian sympathies
are so strong that the provincei on the Adri
atic have been declared is a state of siege.
Here is the point where the interference of
the Northern- bear may .be expected. A Paris
paper; name mot giien—which throws some
doubt on the statement—says that. the Prus
sian Government has demanded ex:Variations
Of the Cabinet 'or :St. Petersburg relative to
the POncentration of Russian troops oa- the
frontiers of Gallicia. The , Russian Govern
ment replied that this concentration of troops I
was not made with any hostile intention, and

shatdd . oertain events take place‘ through the
revolutionary .elenkent, a Russian army should
enter Hungary:, This account coincides with
a report that Russia had promised to occupy
the western coast of the Adriatic; to protect
itfrom the Italian volunteer&
Other complications are hiiited• at.- It is
said that Victor Emmanuel haa'reqUested the
assistanee.of France, offering to Louis Napo
leon in exchange.. the .island of Sardinia, in
addition to: important 'poncessiona in the -Ito
man question. It may also, be regarded, as
certain, that offers in exchange-for assistance
haVe been Made by Prussia: . no less than by
Italy. One town in the Rhenish Provinces
has, in particular, been 'mentioned as 'being
proposed, together with the adjoining dis
trict, which.-contains very valuable coal fields,
as the prize of the French-Prussian alliance.
Awe 29th.--The llanoverian army; 27,000
strong, surrendered to the Prussians, and it
is deemed likely that. Hanover will also be
absorbed by Prussia. '
• The' Austrians were greatly - exhausted by
the fight of June 27th and 28th. A letter
was fotind in one of the AuStrian camps,
Written by an Austrian officer commading , the
16th Corps, the forces opposed to those of the
Prussian Crown Prince, and addressed to
Gen. Benedek, in Josephstadt, - Whieh offered

to 40,000 men. In consequence of the suc
cessful storming of Gitschin, the junction of
the Prussian armies under the Crown Prince
and Prince Charles, was completely effected.
Gitschin was much damaged.
A Gaollin telegram of July 2d, says that
the Prussians have captured 15,000 Austrian
prisoners since the 26th of June, and that
20,000 Austrians have been killed and
wounded. Several battalions were coin-,
pletely annihilated. The Saxon corps, the
the Balik brigade, the Cliem Gallas corps,
and the Gablenz corps are completely broken
up, and for the present not in a condition to
fight. The Austrian army retired to a strong
position behind JoSephstadt and Konigratz,
and according to the statements of some cap
tured officers the soldiers were disoouraged
and the army in a state of, dis , solution.
Another dispatch announces the arrival' f
the King at Gitschin, where: he was received
by Prince Frederick Charles. The streets
everywhere showed traces of an obstinate en
gagement. The enemy•fled in disorder under
cover of the night. The conduct of the Prus
sian troops was excellent. .The. corps of
guards repeatedly repulsed charges of (levelly
without forming square. The head quarters
of Prince Frederick Charles have been '
removed beyond Gitschin.
But worse for poor Austria was yet to
come. The greatest battle r and one which
seems to be regarded as overwhelmingly de
cisive of the conflict, was fought by the com
bined forces of the Prussians and the chat
tered Austrian army,. near Ludowa, July V.
The Prussians were'commanded' by the
King in person. They met the Austrians
under Benedek, between Hoyt and Ircinigratz.
The battle lasted twelve- hours. Until ten
o'clock, A. M. the battle favorable to the
Austrians, but after that time the advantages
all were with thePrtis' sianti. •
At 2`P. M., after an obstinate defence, the
Prussians carried by storm the - ,strong posi
tion of the Austrians, after which the latter
were quickly driven out of other positions,
and by 7 P. M. were in lull retreat to &Di
gratz,,porsned by the Prussian cavalry.
The Anstrians were in a complete rout, the
road being,strewn with baggage which they
had threwh way.' The number of killed and
wounded on both sides was great, but owing
to tlie'eitent of the battle field it had not
yet been ascertained. The Prussians claim
to have captured, up to the evening of the
4th, 14,000=wounded prisoners, 116 cannon,
and several flags. • .

calamity, are too overpowering Tot any man
to speculate on the possible consequences on
the destinies of the Austrian umpire.,-' With

the Prussians will have free play. The Aus
trians have done enough for the honor of
their arms. They must now provide for the
safety of the State.
The most illustrious names in the empire
are among the dead and wounded.
The Paris,Moniteur of the sth makes the
following atinclaucement
An important event has just occurred.
After 'having maintained the honor of his
arms in Italy, the Emperor of Austria,con
curring in the ideas expressed-in the .Ecupe
ror Napoleon's - letter of jiine llth, to his
Minister of Foreign Affairs, cedes Venetia to
the French Emperor, and accepts his media-
tion for the conolasion of peace. -
The Emperor Napoleon hastened to re
spond to the summons, and immediately com
munioated with the King of Prussia,in order
to obtain an armistice. The Austrian field
marshal, Von Gablenz, arrived at the Prus
sian headquarters, at Hoviiz, near Gitsehin,
on the 4th of July, with a flag of truce.
Italy.—At the battle of Custozza the Aus
trian forces numbered 60,000. The First
Army Corps, (Reserve), on the hights to the
left of Valeggio, held in check an overwhelming
number of Austrians, ,before which Gen.
Crane (Cerale ?)'had been forced to , retire.
Bixio's division-and" the, cavalry of the line
proteeted'the retreat of the army,' which was
effcted in good order. The Peanieli division
took prisoners an entire battalion of A.ustrian
chasseurs.
The Italian cavalry had several engagements
with the Austrians, *be sufferedleavY losses
and the Third Army Corps took about 1006
prisoners. The. Italian losses are i great, but
those of the enemy-` are -believed 'to be still
more considerable. The Italian cavalry did
not abandon their positions, nor were -they
overcome until after the enemy had received
reinforcements. Toward nightfall, both the
Italians and Austrians retired from their re
spective positions.
Spain.—PubliC order had not been dis
turbed in Madrid since the suppression of the
military revolt on the 23d ult. A simultane-
ous outbreak occurred at Gerona. Some
companies of troops revolted under their sub
&tern officers and proceeded toward the fron
tier. The troops remaining faithlid were
marching to cut off their retreat.'

Fires this Year.—The losses by fire thus
far during the year 1866 have been enormous,
and they exceed the aggregate losses for any
previous year. The reported losses for 1866
amount to $44,286,000 whilst those for the
entire year 1865 were $43,139,000, and no
previous year reported an aggregate over
$30;000,000.
Tammuz wrrn - TUTIKEY.-A serious em
broglio in our relations with the Divan has
arisen, as follows :—Sarkis Minasian, who
has for many years acted as the resident
agent in Turkey, for the sale of Dr. J. C.
Ayer & Co.'s medicine, driven by the increase
of his business to a necessity for more room,
built his warehouse in Constantinople several
stories higher, after having obtained the
necessary permit from the authorities. The
Imans of a neighboring mosque, which over
looked the premises, demanded a large pre
sent of money, which was refused. They
then applied to the Grand Vizier, for the en
forcement of an obsolete law, which had been
disregarded two hundred years, requiring
him to take down the building to eighteen
feet, which was granted, and they commenced
the work of demolition. Minasian then ap
plied to the American Minister, who notified
the Sublime Porte that American property
could not be thus trifled with, and that the
demolition must cease. Then commenced
the usual course of Massalmart prevarication
and promises, but no real redress. Finally,
Minister Mirris informed them that if their
depredations continued, he should order the
13. S. ships of war to enter the Bosphorus
add Messrs. Ayers' medical warehouse *ould,
not be alone roofless. A stroke of, his pen
could have laid the whole city under the
sweep of American cannon, backed by men
who are.not schooled in the lessons of fear.
This brought them to their senses and speedy
redress. Minasiaia has now arrived in this
country, to present the case to our State
Department for indemnity. At length it is
something to say among the people of the

BOWEN'S DAILY MEDITATIONS.
12m0., 429 pp. $1 75. Tinted paper, gilt edgen, $2 5
The author. Rev. George Bowen, grew "min New
York City, a skeptio, but, "by a remarkable chain of
Providenoes." was led to Christ, and has been for eigh
teen years a missionary in India.
"He became one of the most earnest and single
hearted Christians we have ever known. The Bible
was his book, and. he searched it constantly. prayer
fully, for hidden.treasures. If he had met you on
Broadway, he would atop you a moment to tell of some
new heitity or sweetness he had discovered in the
Divine word. Such a man's meditations are as water
fresh from the I.:urtain. They are deeply spiritual,
and adapted to quicken the faith and love of the
• reader."—Herald and Recorder, Oiseinnati.
Rev. William R. Williame. D.D., of New York. (Bap
tist), says, " It is a book of rare merit, marked by deep
piety, insight into Scriptures, original genius, sad
uncompromising directness. I know of no hook of its
class equal to it."
In this opinion heartily concurs the Rev. Dramas H
Skinner, D.D.. who knew the ahthor well while a stu
dent in the Union Theological Seminary.
Bev. E. E. Adams. D.D., of•Philadolphia„ and many
others well qualified to judge. have commended the
hook in the strongest manner, and particularly for its
freshness and originality.
LEAVES OF CONSOLATION.
Seleeted and' edited by Mrs. H. Dwight Williams.
12m0., 360 pp. $1 50. Tinted paper, gilt edges, $2.
This volume wilt be welcomed into many strickes
and sorrowing households. It is co mpcsed of judici
ous selections from the choicest literature in our
language, addressed to the desp , mding and desolate,
who, in times of bereavement, love to linger among
the "graves of their household," and dwell upon the
state of the departed. The aim of the compiler is to
induce some to make a good and wise use of aMiotive
dispensations, to see the hand of God in them all, and
to feel that " the Judge of all the earth will do right."
To many sorrowing souls this will be a precious balm.
