Kngland opposed my proposa's in reieience to the
Venetian and hchlobwig-Holgf in questions Now
England wants peace. 1 ako desire peace ; but as
the most favorable opportunities have been frittered
away, and as the conflicting interests bave been per
mitted to reach a point at which the must clasj, I
can no longer assume the responsibility of events."
A Purls despatch ot tbe 81st says: Prince Goru

and Count it smart is also expected in Pans shortly.
Tbo first sitting of tne conieronne will pr ibably

powers, in their replies accepting tbe invitation to
tbe Congress, bave eivn an assurance that they will
take measures to prevent the occurrence of any ait
ol hostility uDtil a definite decision has been arrived
at by the conference.
Tbe Prussian reply aceep's tbe conference without
conditions. It simply adds that the imminence of
war has teen caused not by tho iicbleswIg-Uolstein
question Prussia never having intendod to go to
war on that account but solely by the threatening
aimaments of Anttria and Stxony.
The Paris Pretse believes tbat tbe Emperor Na
poleon will prrsideln person at the sittings of the
Conference, and tbat U. Drouyn deLhuys will be
Second Plenipotentiary;
A late Vienna telegram say: Austria will be
represented at tho Conference by Count Eiterhazy
and Count Uensdoifl.
1 be Vienna papers reiterate tbat an understand
irg exists between Austria and Prussia, and
tbat the latter power will support at the
Conference the maintenance ol the treaties of
1816. I bey even go so tar as to deolare ttiat a
formal alliance between the two powers is in pre
paration. Tbe official Oaz'lte of Vienna confirms the intelli
gence that Austria has positive y refused to enter
tain any project lor the cession ot Veneta. the

Tbe Federal Diet at Frankfort on tbe 1st accepted
the invitation to the proposed nnference, with the
reservation tbat the euestion ot 8oh'eswig-Uelstnin
and federal reform are matter of an essentially brer-
man character, so long a hev do not affect interna
tional relations Baron Vonder t'lordien, the Bava
nan Minister of Foreign Affa'rs. was thereupon
elected to rt-nreaent the t.ermanio Confederation.
The Austrian representative dec ared that his Gov
ernment was ready to disarm as soon as security had
been obtained tbat the preservation of peace should
lot again be destroyed. He further stated that
Austria had endeavored in vain to come to an ar
rangement With. Prussia for the settlement of the
Scbleawig-liolatela question iu aouordnnoe with the
riirhts of the Bund ana of the Duchies, and, there-
foie. be would now leave the matter in tbe bauds ol
the Confederation and empower the Governor ol
Holsteln to convoke the estates ot that Dueliv.
Tbe Prussian reoresenta'ivn made a similar de
claration as regards disarmament, and announoed
tbat if the Diet should be unsucceBslul in inducing
A us tii and Saxony to disarm, or should rejeot the
Prussian i roi osai lor teaurat retorm, l'russia wouiu
conolade tbat tbe met is noteiiual to its mission.
The Prussian representative stated, in conclusion,
that Pri'BMa bad never intended to decide the ques

Signs of War la Europe The Military
CommaDdeis.
It is settled that a European Conference will
b' held; Auetiia and Prussia having iinally
given in their adhesion. A slguiticant state
ment, however, reaches us by the last steamer.
to the effect that the Government of Prussia
consents io take part in the Conference only on
condition ttmt its aeciRtous shall not be bind
inrr, and that its durat on shall be as short as
possible, on account of the armaments which
are in progress. The nrocrammo acrrecd unnn
covers the question of the Ductile", the relations
ot Austiia ana ltuiv, ana tne adiustment of tho
German c Con'ederation. A belief seems to be
gaining ' ground in Europe that the results of
tbe Conference will be meagre, and that war is
inevitable: and the intelligence ol active mill
tary preparations which otmcs from all parts of
Europe shows that the hope of peace is not
cenrrhU.v enteriainea
The bisns of war, n fact, are unmistakable.
Field-Marshal Bcnedek has accepted the chief
command ot the eignt hundred thousand men
yy rom Austria i prepared to put Into the field
but he accepts reluctantly and under curious
conditions, such as the concentration ol the first
blows upon ITusela, tb des' ruction ot iiurlln, a
mirelv defensive Dolicv in Venetia until Prussia
shall bavt been disposed of, the exclusion of all
the archdukes from commands in the army, and
ot her atinulations which make the Marsal even
more unpopular than ever among Ihe Austrian
nobility, who detest, and vetcanrot do without
him. The rapid concentration of the immense
force of Austria and the vigor of Bettedek's
measures iudicute tbat the empire is preparing
lor a aeao.iv struggle.
In Prussia lour arms are organizing. One is
to protect the hhme provinces; a co-operative
toice will be stationed in saxony; tho third
will cover Berlin; the Court a will occupy Silosia
and support the army charged with the tletcuie
of the capital. The vteak point in the Pruasinn
military programme seems to be that there are
lour commanders the Crown Prince, Prince
Fiederick Charles, the Duke of CoDtirg, and the
Grand Duke of Mecklenburzh wherets the
Austrian lores is under the supreme control of
Benedsk, who carefully excludes all olllcera of
ti e blood royal irom commands where such
persons are more ornamental than useful.
Some account ol tbe extraordinary timislnc in
Italv was triven iu the JLverana rost ot Mttirutv.
The latest advices confirm the statements already
made. All Italy is alive. Volunteers are po tr
ine into the camps by thousands. Several rich
Venitians have subscribed a sum suffitient to
buy an annuity of three hundred and sixty-five
liancs, to be given to the first Italian soldier
w ho enters Venice. oariDaidi, wno is reported
to be culm and cheerful, has formally accepted
the command of the volunteers, and wa'ks seve
ral miles every doy, in order, as he says, to ac.
custom his leg to long maaches. He always
sneaE9 oi ine necessity or concora. ana oi tor-
getting all personal dissesions; there rlng no
longer any grounds for distaust or susnicion.
Ihe people have discovered a "coincidence"
which is accepted as a happy augury the num
bers at a public lottery iust drawn iu Florence
tnving been "69" and "G6."
The Italian navy is in good order and of for
midable character. It is divided into three
cnimrlrimd finmnrialnv lliiitv uaaDnl r.P n,hinh
the B d' Italia (built at this port) aud six other
Irigates ate irou-clads. Admiral Persano is in
command.
Besides Benedek and Garibaldi, the generais
who are assigned to commands in the different
at inies are experienced and lamt us. The Aus
tiians have Marshal de Hesse, who is 73 years
old, and whore career da'es from the battle ot
Wagrani; Prii ce fcchenzenberg, 72 years old,
who commanded Austrian cavalry in Italy In
18-lH, and was at Magenta ana souenno In 185'j;
end Count Clam-Gallas, who has been in active
command since 1H48. Marshal Benedek is 68
years old, and since the death of Radet.ky has
been regarded as tne nrst watrtor ot Austria,
While a colonel, in 1848, he fought in the cam
patgn agBtnst the Piedmontese. In 1869 he
commanded the Eighth corps at San Maittno,
The Italian generals are thus sketched by a
1'ioicuce letter-writer:
"General La Marmora is in person a tall thin

Biways suimounted by tho fashionable eye-glasses
He has a pasBion for the military art, aud is ir flexi

and a beard like the Chasseurs de Vinoennes. He
's the only individual of tut Italian army to whom
General Ij Marmora permits this eccentricity, for
he himself is mousiached conformably to the regu

CUKIOU8 REVELATIONS THROUGH TUB ME VICAN
MINISTER.
On the 10th of Mav. 1804, M. Romero, Minister
from the Republic ol Mexico, sent a co.nmuni
cation to Mr. Reward respecting Ihe conduct of
General Don An'onio Lopez do Sinta Anna
touching the Ficnch occupation ot Mexico. In
this communication (which was to warn our
Government not to trust Santa Anua in his pro
fessions of ReDublict nismi M. Romero incloses
Sar.ta Anna's leter to the Regenry, giving in his
adhesion to Maximilian; tbe an are ts ot uanta
Anna to his countrymen taking the sane
ground; Marshal Bazatne's letter ordering him
to quit tDe soil, and his reply thereto, and his
subsequent denunciations ot Max'mtlian's Gov
ernment. The tirst letter of Santa Anna is dated Vera
Cruz, February 28, and is addressed to the Under
Setietary ot War. In this leiter be deckles on
co-opeiating with "tbe illustrious prince de
signed in the sublime counsels ot Divine Provi
dence to raise tbe nation irom tne aDyss oi mis
fortune into which she has beeu uluuged by
anarchy."
To this the Under Secretary replied, acknow
ledging the great sat isfacliou ot the Regency at
this adhesion, especially as Santa Anna had
made known the "same feelings when the pre
sent Government was installed."
The ex-President then issued an address to bis
countrymen, in which, alter deploring the deso
lated condition of hs country, and calling to
rem embi ance the different aspect it presented
wbenhewas President, he charged that when
he left the country, "the ambition of an ill
counselled band had reached the supreme power,
taking advantage ot tne Ignorance ot the
unwarv. The misdeeds of the representatives
of the Liberals have enveloped the Church in
mourning, and filled the hearts ot the Mexic. n
people with bitterness; tueir want ot gooa tattn
in treaties obliged three powerful nations to arm
themselves in demand of the lustice that was
owing to them. The Conservative party is not,
therefore, rcsponsib'e tor the late events that
have taken place in our countiy "

He then goes on to say tnat be came to tne
country to "give new proof ol the respect I owe
to tne national win, now so in agreement wun
my belief and conviction;" and he warns hie
countrymen to "guara in meir memory tne

Marshal Bazaine. tbe French commander.
seeing this proclamation, addressed a letter to
tunta Anna, accusing him of breaking a pledire,
nml rebuklnir him tor not addressing htmseU to
the "Commander in-Chiet of the Franco-Mexican
Array, who represents France In Mextco." Mar
f hal Bazaine closes the letter bv stating that he
has placed a vessel at his (8anta Anna's) die-
pot-al, so that he ana nis sou couia leave me
country without delay.
The ex-President replied to this letter by
Cen Ing that he had broken his pledrre. lie
snyshe never promised to be "dumb when he
came to this country," und that when he signed
the recognition of the intervention of Maximilian,
Marshal Forey bad promisea mat upon my
urrlvnl nnthinir would be required of me."
Santa Anna protests against his banishment, and
says that he will appeal to Napoleon.
AS SOon B9 Kama Anna irucueu ci. luuium,
le issued another proclamation to his country
men, exactly the reverse of the sentiments con-
tamed in the otner. it was uateu juiy o, ioou.
Alter stating that "he never deceived them," he
txulains h's conduct in Mexico. ' He slated that
he adhered to the system t government wnicn
appeared to be pioclaimed by a considerable
majority," but he soon found it a "painful error,"
mid he now contemplates with pride "your
plrugsle for life with the invaders of your coun
try, the soldiers called lorth by the interven
tion." After drawing a picture of th mismanagement
and cruelties of Maximilian, be tells them that
"the hour has come in which we should exter
minate from the sacred seil of the free the farci
cal rabble who profane the land with their feet,
siid mi-ult us with tbeir presence."
In conclusion he gives an explanation of why
he recognized the intervention. While sailing
into Vera Cruz the steamer was boarded by tho
"Chief Superior," who told him he could not
land until he too would recognize tbe interven
t on aud monarch elect, and promise not to
address the people This insolence excited his
indignation; bul his wile was sick, and needed
to go ashore and his friends advised him to
comply, which be did. He clones the letter by
tho motto, "Down with the Empire Live tbe
Republic."

The Fenians.
PoGGHEEErsia, June 12. A steamboat having
a barge in tow, both loaded heavily with dis
heartened Fenians, passed this city en route for
New York, and a carload of Fenians has also
gone down the railroad.
Malonb, June 11. The Fenian excitement
htis subsided, and large numbers are leaving for
tl.cir homes. General Murphy addressed them
from the windows ot the room where he is con
fined, telling them to remain, and when he was
ready to have them go, he would go wllh them.
He announced to the crowd that fifty thousand
men were on their way here from New York,
and that they would manage to get through this
place. Colonel O'Neill has left hero for St.
Albans. A Fenian was shot on the fairgrounds
yesterday, by one ot his companions. We have
not tbe particulars, but understand that the
afliiir was not accidental. The officers under
arrest were handed over to the civil authorities
and their examination will be commenced thi-
evening. It is reported that O'Conor and
Brady, of New York, are coming heie to on'
duct the defense. A number of the Fenian o Ul
cers have gone on a reconnobsancc to the
enemy's lines. Many of the ladles here contri.
tn ted bread and other provisiTns for the Fenian
dinner yesterday, and loads or supplies were
brought in by tbeir friends from the country.
T'.vo companies of United States infantry are
coming here from St. Albans, and an extra
train with troops is on the way from Ogdens-
burg. It may be that General Meade is to dis
perse the Feuians by force, as he intimated he
should in his proclamation to them, if they did
not leave ot their own accord within a reasonable
time. Notwithstanding the hard fare they re
ceive, they conduct th' m6elves in a quiet and
oulerly manner.
Rev. Henry Ward Becchcr on the "Late
Movement" and Keconsti action.
On Sunday morning Reverend Henry Ward
Beeclier, as is his custom in times of excitement
and difficulty, applied the Christianity in which
he believes to tbe two great popular questions
ot the day. From t very much shorter report
than we had a right to expect Irom so enterpris
ing a journal as the Brooklyn Hagle, we learn
that upon the text, "Overcome evil with good,"
be unioidca ana maae apparent tue great
underlying truth of tho Divine fiat: "Veu-
feance is mine; I will repay, saith the Lord."
n the application of the conclu?ions reached
nom the text, Mr. Beecher outne, towards the
c'ose of his discourse, to the duties ol commu
nities and nations to ach other.
And here be held that the rule was tbe same,,
tiiid lor the same reasons, as in individual cases,
litis he illusiratea by an allusion to the present
t'.oubles ou the border. "I bear men say, 'Aha I
it's their turn now. Let us ba quiet, and allow
the Fenians to return to them some ot their St.
Albans courtesies. I'd lusr like to see a town
or two burned, a bank or so robbed, lust to let
them know how cood it is.' Well, now, th's is
u'l ytioug. I will not deny that my natural
pitm was delicately and quietly tickled at first
by a mischievous sense ot poetic iustke, but it
was orlyllor a moment. True, the Canadians
did act most unfairly, and the mother country
roost wickedly, towards us In our dire dlstres;
but if we take like opportunities to show the
same spirit, in what is republicanism greater or
bitter than despotism? I want to heap coals of
tire on tbeir beads by showing the grand specta
cle ot a Christian nation actuated by Christian
principles. If England is involved in war I
don't want to see a single ship go out of our
prrts to destroy her commerce, and over the
Canadian border I do not want a single cottage
hi.rmcd. I want them to find tbeir evil over
come by good. The way to live in peace '.s ta
be bitter than jour enemy in his opinion, nit
yours."
Alter enlarging somewhat on this point Mr.
Peecher paused, and, looking around with a
humorous glance, continued: "I don't kuow
whether I'd better make any further application
of this principle or not. I have not been very
popular with my people during the past year.
I bave failed to carry them altogether with me
on some public questious and I am sorry tor
them ! But yet I must say that I caunot escape
the direct bearing of tbis Gospel law. I am as
strong as ever in the conviction that the
ttue result ot the war must be recognized.
Whatever went Into the Constitution on account
of slavery must come out; and what was kept
out on account ot slavery must be put Into our
oi tanic law; and I have believed aud labored
lor this as strongly and lonser than many ot
you. nut I nave ten mat it snouia De none in
the spirit of love, not of hatred. I consider the
doctrines brought forward in the House of Repre
sentatives by Mr. Stevens though followed In
their entirety, thank God I by very few I tftink
them to be the dofitrines of Belial, leading them
to destruction. rte North had a chance to
show grace, au4 Le, and magnan'mlty. How
I loneed-to see ill Both Congress snd the Presi
dent should Lave been pressed to Union. I hnd
hoped to see the North i-howing her superiority
in Christian noblenees and generous iorglrenss.
But I have been disappointed. It hm not been
done. You can no more change Rebels to loyal
men by casting them out and turning them
away, than you can convert the wicked by
building up a wall ot separation between them
and the good-shutting them out from the very
intluen.es that should bo brought to bear upon
them. 'IfJ thine enemy hunger, feed him; if he
thirst, give him drink; for in so doing thou
shalt heap coal of fire upon (his bead. Be not
overcome of evil; but overcome evil with good.'
There, go; vote that. You have been talking it
long enough; doit You have been praying It
long er.ub; try it." JV. T. Daily JyVtw.
