Wily the arrival of the steamship Weser . at New
Turk au Saturday last, we have two days later news
'from Europe. The intelligence from the seat of war
is tidally importantos confarmator7 of what had been

feat at &drake; had fillet back to Verona, and Gan
abakli wu efideavaiing to get the Command-of Lake

The number of Austrians aimed in the brae of
Soßerko is eariiiusly stated at from 200,000 t." 4 270,-
000, and the alliekattrom 140,000 10,150,000. The
French state their to is in killed and wounded at 12,-
000, rank and file, and 720 officers hors dr sor.Aar,
of whom 150 were killed. The total Sardinian kiss
in killed, wounded, and missing, was 552.5, The
Austrian losses hare not berm ascertained; but were
not far from 10,000 killed and wounded and 4,000
The news from Germany is highly important. The
Federal Diet bad unanimously acceded to a propcarl
tion of Prussia to Place a corps of obserntion on the
upper Rhine, and an extraordinary Diet had been
eoninakol for the 14th inst., to raise money for war
purposes. This does not look much like "localbing*

kgr Gen. Cass's doctrine, "once a subject, always
a subject,"is causing great exeitcnient among natur
allied citizens. To admit that the soveleign power
of' a cot try can banish a either, hiff deny that that
citizen has an equal right to expatriate himself, is.
sureli• very undemocratic. We do not suppose that
the Emperor of France or Austria oww all 'the peo
ple born in his dominions, or that by. involuntarily
comiuglinto existence on that roil they tacitly bound
themselves to a life-long allegiance to his throne ; —
but only that while remaining under his government
RS subjects, theY must conform to the laws of the
land, in return for the protection those laws afford.
And when a subject leaves his native land, abjures
his allegiance, and swears to support the Constitu
tion of the United &atm% in conformity with our
naturalization laws, and thereby becomes a citizen of
the United Statm, with these new relations new do
ties are assumed, both by him aid by the govern
ment to which he has transferrtd his allegiance. If
be,.forieuing the obligations he once owedto anoth
er government, is bound to support that of the Unit
ed States in all things Tike a native-born Ame rican,
so is our government equally bound to afford him the
same protection that she gives to any other citizen.
Otherwise his pretended naturalization is a cheat and
a snare, and his evidences of American citizenship,
though sufficient to enable him to aid in boosting
moilsseeking Democrats into office, gill prove but
worthless warm paper when; in pursuit of his lawful ,
commerce, be finds - himself seized and imprisoned,
and calls in vain for aid from a Democratic adminis
tration.. Should it he objected that foreign powers
Will not admit the right or expatriation in their sub

Napoleon and a citizen of the United States. at the
same time. It oar government demi not intend to
protect its naturalized aims, is should at once re
peal all its naturaliution laws, and stop deceiving
foreigners with Ease pretences. And especially sho'd
the Democratic party, whose Secretary of State has
promulgated this pusillanimous doctrine, cease 'to
boast that it brut made this country the asylum of the
oppressed of all nations—adoptipg them as her Clith

Burial Grounds.
Ihnwaa. Etorrtout ;—Not long ago I spent a short
time in one of the eastern townships of this, immitY,
where j met many who in ream gone by were my
school-boy friends, and who.atal hold a strong "place
in my remembrance:
But not all of my youthful friends were there;—
some of them had passed away, no more to mingle
with us here on earth. • While thinking of these, my
mind =usually tamed' to the spot where they were
sleepinsthat long sleep which !mows no waking.—
You know that when we realize that ire too must
imam or later lie buried in the earth's cold bosom,
it is natural to hope that we may rest undisturbed
beneath the shade of Soule overhanging tree, where
the green sod above , us may be allowed to grow no.
broken, save where the kind hand of a ,curviving
friend plants a flower to bloom and lop its leaves
upon our glare, thee reminding them thkt " such is
life." And how revolting to every delicate sensibili
ty would be the thought Of being buried in the open
field; neglected and unremembered.
Agreeable to the musing of my mind, I wandered
,into-the burial ground where lie those wlxi are to my
memory dear ; hoping there to 'find the graves of
my once joyous raids exhibiting 'Anise merits of
attention whiciiindicate that they are not Angelico
by surviving friends. But how different from this
•was the-reality. There, in an open field, where the
common lied are allowed to trample,' I found the
graves of my oft-ruminbered companions. And as
you think of this, presume not .that this is it new
place of burial ; for Wilma' the wild thistles, alders,
and weeds, amt the bodies of the pioneers of, this

/WORN, ..EDITCII44 :—Tru!y we are a fast race. But
would it not be better in some things if we s were a
trifle slower?. Weeread, "the race is not always to

thies are aroused more generally, by the " almighty
dollar" aryl a prospect of show, (like thetrog in the

no control of the scholars out of doors: They ahouhl

within the walls; -and the school-keepers wear out'
the time for which they stand engaged, much in the
same spirit that rumor says governed a certain Dutch
man, who was patriotic enough to serve his country
in the' Legislature for " tree toilers" a day. There is
a lack of government, management, etc., in both
teachers and parents. When years ago the Schlief•
stasier'grew up'among us, and taught all his life,
perhaps inthe same house; children were more` sub
stantially 'educated. I would not Fay them things_

"Like" for "As.”—Bartletes Dictionary
of Americanisms informs us that in the United States
"like" is sometimes used for — '9is," as in the phrase,
"like I do," for "as I do." And the following ex•

" As soon as the Postollice was open, I looked over
the miscellany, like I always do, afore I let anybody

at 10 o'clock, July 2d,'at School #onscln-Dig
trict 8, of Lenox township. Five of said school!'
were of Lenox. and one from Ilarfoni. The.proces
sion was formed at half past ten, and immediately
proceeded to the grove on the land of W. Id. Ting
ley. There was a plentiful supply of music upon the
fife and drum, with it little mixture of the softer
toned instruments, together:with splendid singing by
two different Choirs. About five :intntlied Sabbath
School children were present, who Were marched and
keptin almost perfect order by the teachers alpi.offi
ems of each respective school • through • the • day,—
Many children from adjoining
:townships were admit
ted to share in the festivities, being invited by teach
.cr or others. It is estimated that there were mares
!limy spectators as children: If so, the Whole num
ber would be s'onie eight ornine hundred people,and
not one 'drunk among them, nor even an..anp,ry look
or word during the whole day. :
..~ .. n.
The morning exercises commenced (after the usu
al form of prayer and singing) with an address de
livered by Eld. John Tillinghast to the Sabbath
School' children, which was both: 'lnfusing and in
structive. Ile gave many short biographies and his
tiirienl Flieteltes of olden times, well spiced with pleas
ant anecdotes and curious transactions that have tak
en place in both Church and State. Ile spoke strong
ly against using the term, " Free and Independent
Nation," while , the chains of involuntary servitude
sound in our ears. - Witlthl n very timely and well
arranged address.
Atter the address, an intermission of half an hour,
during which tithe refreshments were served to all
present, to their, &tire satisfaction.
The afternoon exercises commenced by reading the
Declaration of Independence, by Wesley Reff.e.
Following was an oration by lion. G. A. Grow,
which was admirably adapted to the occasion, and, I
need not say:, a truthful, powerful, and splendid pro
duction.
Fine martial and vocal music was Ricca r.t Inter

of preparation" for this great Convocation of
the Democracy of the nation hes been al.

positions" so that they ditty be acceptable to
the party. Gosernor'Wise, the most anx

have at this early day appeared in print with
a view to attract public attention. The fur.

the wiseacres of the Democracy who are • to
meet at Charleston some time next Sumnier,
before the sickly season sets in, it will not
be his fault, hut should be accredited to their
want of appreciation of the good things of
this-life. Douglas, who is a sort of political
show-tam and believes implicitly in "sense.
Lions," has astonisbe,d the politicians of the
country by the display of a little courage in
letter.writing, and resorts to the novelty of
erecting a platform for himself which .I e

A few days ago there was an elections there,
for the county seat, and the towns of Arcola
and Tuscola were rivals for the honor. Nei.

The Battle , of Solferhio.
The battle commenced nt a littld before
five o'clock in'the morning of June 24th, not

milb or thereabouts into the plain,.atLthen
breaks off towards the.. left into a wide' ez
paps° of smaller hillsrind po into: the rollitig
.snrface which makes that , portion of 'the
plain. The Austrians had taken position On•
these hilt4,:plantirg cannon upon those near:
est to Qtatiglione, which they could approach
as the Emrich army was in full force in and
aren't& that little village, and stationed-their
immense prmy all -over the surrounding
i
plains. 4s - n er as we 'can learn, the Emper
or Francis . J ph .bad • collected here not
less than ,22.1, 0 troops,' and commanded
them' in perso His evident purpose was
to make a sta here and risk the fortunes
of the war. n the hazard of the day.
Napoleo Promptly accepted the challenge,
and .commenced the attack as soon ris it. was
light, by 'placing cannon upon Jim hills still
tiCarer to' Castig e lione than those held by. the
Austrians, and opening fire upon them on the
heights beyond. lie look his own - stand up.
on •the highest of these, a steep, sharp backed,
ridge which commands a magnificent view of
the entire circuit of the plain, and from that
point difeeted i the entire movements of his
army during the early portion of the day...-
The French very soon drove the enemy out
of the posts they held nearest to the town,
and followed them into the small.villages of
the plain i below.•
The first of these. was &amino, where
tliey had a sharp and - protracted engagement.
The Austrians disputed every inch of ground,
and fought here, as th 4 did throughout the
day, with the utmost ,ileiperation.. .They
were three times driven out of the town be
fore they would stay out. _ The people, more?
over, took part against thO French, upon
whom they fired from their windows, and
the Frene.h wero compelled in self-defence to
burn the town. " When they found it ,impes.
sihle to hold their ground any longer, they
fell -bark slowly and steadily until they
reached the village of Volta, directly south
east froth-the liver Mincio, from which, how
ever, it is separated by a range of -hills.—
Upon these hills, in the rear of the town, and
overlooking it completely upon the south and
southeast sides, the Austrians had planted
very formidable batteries„and when larrived
upon the field and went at once to the height
where the Emperor had stood at the openiag
of the engagement, but which he had left an
hour kefore to follow his victorious troops,
these batteries were blazing away- upon the'
French, who were stationed upon the plain
below.
The gelteral result was soon made evident
by the slackening of the Austrian fire and by
the following lack of thin smoke and a cor
responding advance on the part of that which
rose from. the French artillery. The cannon
ading at that point lasted for over an hour,
but in precisely what direction the Austrians
retreated it wasliot possible from the posi :
lion I occupied to see. Part of the Austrian
force,. probably crossed the, Mincio river
which flows southward from the lower end
of Lake Guarda and empties into the. Po.
But the battle continued- to rage all ovfir
the region northwest of a line connecting the
towns of Castiglione, Solferino, and Volta at
one point after another. A sharp cannonad
ing would arise and continue for half or three
quarteri of an hour, and after each succe-sive .
engagement of this kind the result became
apparent in the retreat of the Austrians and
the advance of the French forces. During
all the early part of the -day the sky had
been clear and weather hot, .but clouds
began to gather about noon, and at five o'-
clock, while the cannonade was at its height,
a tremendous thunder storm rolled up from
the northwest. The storm lasted for about
an-hour, and the cannonading so far as we
could distinguish, was suspended. Then the
rain . ceased, the don& blew away, 'the sun
shone out again, and the air was cooled and
perfectly delightful.
Though the cannonmay have ceased for a
time to' take part in it, the light had .'mean
time gone on, and when I again resumed nii
post of observation from - which the storm
had expelled me,sthe cannonading. comment:-
ed quite on the extreme left of the entire
field, and on the very borders of the lake
northest from Castiglione and west of Pes
ehiera. C The Piedmontese troops, under the
King, who commands them in person, had
-been posted there and received the Austrians
as thoy i came around:
Froth about seven o'clock until after night
fall an (incessant and most terrible Combat
here kept up. The batteries of the two ar
rnio9 were apparently about half a mile apart,,
and tie the outset they were both served With
nearly equal and effective vigor; but the
Austrians gradually slackened their fire and
took up new positionr, while the Sardinians
poured, a rapid and uninterrupted shok4r of
balls upon them, suspending only for a' few
minutes at a time, and then renewing it
again with redoubled --fury. The wind had
now giMe down, the air .vas still, and the
sound Of musketry as well as-of cannon was
distinctly heard. Sometiines only a single
flash Would be spell, then two or three •at
once, find sometimes half a dozen would
break fJeth in constant succession. , It was
beginning to be dark when I turned to de
.seend he bill, and all the way down 1- still
hoard the roar of the cannon and the clatter
ing idre guns of the infitutry. .
The Apstriatts have sustamcd aft over
whelming defeat and it, seems lo me not un
likely that tlie s kinperor may now he induced,
by the represeniations'of the neutral powers,
to time t the peace which Napoleon will be
.very likely .to tend,er him. I am afraid to
1
venter upon any conjectures as to the num
ber kil ed, and, wounded. in this battle, but
from t e-nature of the case it must be
,cpor
mous.l J . am confident- that
,not less than ten
thous d wounded have - been brought into
