IMPORTANT FROM EUROPE.
War! War!! War!!!
The Peace Conference Abandoned.
Great Preparations of the Combatants.
Enormous Armies in the Field,
The Fighting to Begin in Silesia and
the Duchies,
English Political and Financial News.
NEW YOBS, June 16th.—The steamship
City of Paris has arrived, with Liverpool
dates of the 6th instant.
The Coming European War,
It is fully confirmed that the proposed
conference has been abandoned, owing to
the demandeiof Austria, which were re
garded by England, France and Russia as
tantamount to a - refusal. All negotiations
have been broken off by neutrals, and it
remains for the armed Powers to negotiate
among themselves or to commence war. The
hopes of peace have almost vanished.
The latest London Times says: Daily, al
most hourly, the chances of peace fade
away. It believes that the first events will
occur in the Elbe Duchies, but that the great
move of Austria will be the attempt to pos
sess itself of Silesia.
The Daily News says appearances indi
cate that a declaration of war, or a mani
festo eauivalent to it, will proceed from
Prussia.
The Prussian Government had issued a
circular note to the neutral Powers, charging
Austria with flagrant breach of treaties, by
referring the Holstein question to the Diet.
Prussia has also sent a protest to Austria,
declaring that the measures announced by
Austria in the Diet violate the treaty of Gas
tein, cause asuspension of the Duchies,and
restore the two Powers to the positiOns ac
corded by the Treaty of Vienna.
An Austrian circular declares that Aus
tria will observe the Gastein convention un
til the definite settlement of the question of
the Duchies is effected. Her only object in
referring the matter to the Diet was to effect
such a settlement.
War preparations are reported from all
quarters.
The Prussian army consists of 452 bat
talions of infantry, 320 squadrons of cav
alry, 1,086 field pieces etc.—the largest that
Prussia ever set afoot.
The Italian volunteers number 95,000.
The typhus fever is said to have broken out
in the Italian army at the frontier. Troops
are being forwarded daily, and headquarters
are swarming with troops.
The Emperor of Austria was expected at
Prague, should the war break oat.
Advices from Berlin state that Bismark
would accompany the King as soon as he
proceeds to headquarters.
The Royal Body Guard left Potsdam on
the sth.
The Italian government is said to be en
gaging London steamers to carry troops.
The Austrian commander has convoked
the estates of Holstein for the 11th of Jane,
by order of the Emperor.
The Saxon Chamber of Deputies had
voted the credit required by the Government
' and approved the projected armaments.
The London Times says Silesia would
almost seem to be the prize of the conqueror
in the coming campaign. Here Prussia
must defend herself, for there is no one to
belp her. The only aid must come from
'Russia and the Czar is now quite indisposed
to take up arms in her behalf. If Prussia
seizes Holstein, it is therefore not unlikely
that Austria will at once cross the frontier.
BERLIN, June 6.—Prince Frederick
Charles will leave for the headquarters of
the Prussian army, in Silesia, to-morrow
evening. His staff leaves for the same point
today.
FLORENCE, June 6th.—Great agitation
prevails in Venice, owing to the forced loan
and refusal of the municipality to co
operate in collecting it. •
Large numbers had deserted the city in
consequence of the new conscription.
AIIS
An Imperial decree suspends the laws for
the protection of personal liberty in Venetia
and other southern parts of Europe. Autho
rity to do likewise, and establish military
courts, is given to the General Commanding
the Army of the North.
The Austrian army is now 800,000 strong.
of them 600,000 will comprise the army
of operations-350,000 against Prussia, and
260,000 against Italy. '
The authorities have made arrangements
to carry away the funds and valuables of
the Basilica of St. Marks.
GREAT BRITAIN.
After a long debate on the Reform bill,
Mr. Boyter's amendment in favor of post.
pmement was Withdrawn, and the bill was
ultimately referred to the committee with
out a divisiOn.
An impression was abroad that the mea
sure wouldbe withdrawn, but the Govern
ment gave no indication of such a step.
The London litneB says that the critical
relations on the continent have saved the
British Ministry.
Peto, Betts dr. Co. were to resume business
in a few days.
In the London Money Market there is
some expectation of a reduction of the Bank
rate next week.
FICATEICE.
PARIS, June B.—The Moniteur du Soir
stales that the reservation of-Austria to her
acceptabce of the Conference prevented any
thorough examination of the Austro4talian
difference, and adds that England and Rus
sia considered that under these circum
stances the deliberations of the Conference
'would haye no real utility.
The government of the Emperor could not
but share this opinion, and relinquishes for
the piesent the hope it entertained from the
immediate assembly of the Plenipotentia

30:313Xtii Congreel—First Session.
WASHINGTON, June 16.
ffousz.—lmmediately after the reading
of the journal, Mr. Morrill (Vt.) stated that
he believed this would be the last day ofthe
session that would be devoted to general
discussion, and he hoped that members
would make the most of it, and that they
would be prepared to work every other day
of the session, which he hoped would now
be very short.
Mr. Garfield (Ohio) gave notice that he
would next Monday offer a resolution di
recting the Committee on Mileage to ex
amine and report what discrepancy, if any,
there was between the amount of mileage
received by Members of the last Congress
and the amount claimed by them, and di
recting the Committee to allow no more
mileage in future to a member than is
claimed by him. He explained the reason
vlby be wished the resolution to be
adopted. On looking into Executive docu
ment No. 125, showing the pay and mileage
of members for the last Congress. he found
himself set down as being paid for 2,740
miles of travel, being for 685 miles four
times, whereas be had only claimed, in an
swer to the circular sent him by the Chair
man of the Committee on Mileage, 565 miles
as the distance from his home to Washing
ton; that, multiplied by four would make
the number of miles for which he should
have been paid . 2,260; so that he was
paid for 480 miles more than "he
had claimed. Drawing his mileage in sums
of fifty and a hundred dollars, he had not
noticed the discrepancy, and•it was only
on referring to the document that he be
came aware of the fact. He found now, on
inquiry, that other members from • Ohio,
and perhaps front all parts of the country,
bad been allowed more mileage than they
had claimed.
Bands,
The gentleman from Cleveland (Mr.
Spalding) claimed: for only 510 miles, and
was allowed eB4. and his colleague (Mr.
Schenck) clhimed for only 689 miles, and
was allowed 812. The letters in which they .
stated the number of miles traveled, in ''
reply to the circular of the chairman of the
Committee on Mileage, he found in the
room of the sergeant-at-arms endorsed vrith
the increased number of miles "approved,
J. W. W." [The initials of Mr. White, of
Ohio. chairman of the committee.—REp.]
In the case of his colleague (Mr. Schenck),
he bad discovered the discrepancy on being
paid the balance due him on the last day of
Congress.and had declined to receive the in
creased amount. It appeared that the Com
mittee on Mileage had in this way got up a
scale of distances utterly unknown to the
members,and now the whole thing was pub
lished to Con gress,and the country and mem
bers were set down as having received a very
considerable amount more than they had
claimed. He therefore gave this notice
that he would on next Monday ask una
nimous consent to offer the resolution
directing the Committee on mileage to in
quire into the master.
Mr. Davis (N. Y.) suggested, jocularly
that the extra mileage allowed may have
been for the distances travelled by mem
bers in passing between the tellers when
voting.
No business being in order except gene:-
ral debate on the President's Annual Mes
sage,
Mr. Julian (Ind.) made a speech in favor
of the Congressional plan of reconstruc
tion.
