GENERAL SUMMARY.
In Parliament the removal of the Jewish
Disabilities bill has been rejected in the up
per bouse by a majority of 25, the Minister
not venturing to call for the proxies.
Baron Rothschild having been rejected, has
already accepted (he Chiltern hundreds and
made an appeal to the electors. His success
is considered certain. '
The House of Commons has affirmed the
second reading of the Marriage Bill, to ren
der valid marriages with the sisters of de
ceased wires.
FRANCE.
The new law against the Clubs has already
been put in fotee.
On Monday the ministry introduced into
(he legislative Assembly a bill for regulating
the press, which M. Odillon Barron stated
was intended merely as a temporary mea
sure to regulate the position of the press until
they could organize a law on the subjt.-et.
The law proposed is nearly the same as the
law of Louis Philippe) and powers are given
by it fot the temporary suspension of every
journal attacking the Constitution, or making
direct appeals to the army tiguinst the Go
vernment. 'The number of persons arrested at Lyons
for participation in the attempted insurrec
tion amounted to upwards of 300.
The bickering which has been carried on
between the Prcuident and a portion of his
ministry is rapidly approaching an issue, and
jt is supposed Will result in the retirement of.
some of the leading members of the Cabinet.
The principal cause of the dissensions is the
anomalous and fratricidal policy of the Go
vernment in regard to Italy.
In the course of the debate in the Assem
bly on Foreign Affairs the Minister declaied
that there was ntf drtnger of war. M. de
Tooqueville said' that after having more care
fully considered' the subject he had been una.
ble to discover the slightest trace of that new
holy alliance of which honorable members
had expressed such jealousy. In the course
of his speech De Tocqueville talked of the
f.-lmkness of the Russian Government, an ex
pression which was received with bursts of
laughter. During the debate Gen. Cavaig
iftomads a most important speech.
ROME.
After a severe bombardment the squadron
of the French army succeeded in establish
ing themselves within the outer walls of
Rome early on the 22d of June. Since that
time they have been occurred' with attempts
to acquire possession of the inner bastions
and defences, but up to the 23d & 24th they
had not made much progress. The gallant
Remans nobly contested evury inch of ground,
and were determined to resist to the last ex
tremity.
The latest intelligence fiom Hume says that
Oudinot had so far succeeded that the city
was entirely at his mercy, but, to spare it the
horrors of a frightful carnage, he has submit
ted terms to the triumvirate which it is
thought would be ucccptcd. It is said that
tho English Government offered a friendly
remonstrance against the bombardment of
Rome, urging upon the French Government
the necessity of coming to an accommoda
tion.' HUNGARY.
It is said that the Hungarians were par
tially defeated by the Austrians on the 21st,
and compelled to "retire beyond the Waag,
where from the nature of the country, they
will be better able to rdpel the invading for
ces. The Austrian and ' German journals
state that earnests have occurred at several
points on the Waag and some ascribed vic
tory to the Hungarians and others to the Aus
trian. The German Reforme, which has
hitherto been favorable to Austria, says that
the Austrians have sustained checks and that
the Cholera and otber maladies are raging in
their camp. It- also' says that the- Magyars
are displaying greater enthusiam- than ever,
and that Kessuth has ordered the Austrian
prisoners, -numbering - several thousands) to
work oa the Breezitv Railway.
ITALY.
Anccnahas at last surrerurered to the- Aus
trians after a terrible bombuidment. The
bombardment of Venice-has been suspended
on account of ' terms of capitulation having
been proposed by the besieged.
Bf ble Anecdotk. The following is pub
lished in French newspapers: A - poor shop
ard of the environs' of Yvetot, father of a
large family, for whoso wants ho provided
with very great-- difficulty, purchased la
summer from a dealer in old clothes, furni
ture, kc, an old Bible, with a view to occu
py his leisure evenings during the- present
winter. Sunday evening, as he was turnin
over the leaves, he noticed that several of
them were panted togother. He imuiedi
ately set himself to work to separate those
leaves with'grfrurctwe ; but one can scarcely
form a conception -of the -surprise of the man,
when he found Ihua'caTefuHy-aifclosed a bank

FAST DAY.
President Taylor, has recommended the
first Friday of August next, as a day of fast
ing humiliation and prayer, in vtteW of the
visitation of our country by that fearful
pestilence, the cholera. The cholera has
extended its ravages throughout the Union
In some places, particularly in a number of
our western cities they have suffered most
severely under this terrible scourge. Such
recommendations, though common with
our'state gowrhments.are not frequent with
the President. We believe the last recom
mendatiort of tins kind was by President
Tyler, shortly after the death of Gen. Har
rison. We presume the recommendations
of the President -will be very generally
observed.
IGr" The Supreme Court has been in ses
sion nt this place for several weeks.- The
Judges are all present. The new rule works
well in despatching business, and will en-
able tho Judges to clear the list.
Chief Justice Gibson, we regret to say,
has been ill and confined to his bed for
several days past. We are pleased, how
ever to learn from his Physician, that he is
rapidly recovering.
OCf The excessive hot weather of last
week was followed, by what might be term
ed, cold weather, in the beginning of the
week. The thermometer, which had ranged
from 93deg. to 95deg., came down, on
Monday Morning, to 50 deg.
IT" The harvest has nearly all been
gathered. The weather has been fine, and
the crops have been secured in the best pos
sible manner. The wheat, in grain, is pro
bably not quite so large as last year, but is
nevertheless plump and full, and taken in
without any 'damage whatever, which was
not the case the previous harvest, when
much of it' was sprouted.
QV" Our readers will find on our- first
page, an address delivered bv the Riv. J.
P. Shindel, on the 4th of July, to the' chil
dren and teachers of the Lutheran Sunday
School in this place, which, but for prior
claims in our columns, Would have appear
ed last week. Mr. Shindel has long and
faithfully labored in this community as a
pastor of the Lutheran Church. The edi
tor of the Lancaster Intelligencer, pays a
high and well deserved compliment to th
personal character of Mr. Shindel, in his
notice of the address and truly adds that
"it exhibits in the Orator a deep devotion,
as well to the truths of Christianity, as to
the principles of republicanism, established
by 1he heroic deeds of our forefathers."

high compliment to the talents of friend

of doing justice to the subject, than Mr
Hutter.

KF" A press of job woik and advertising
has crowded out several editorial and other
articles this week.
CHOLERA Off THE JtTOATA.
Caotain Hooper, of one of the canal pac
kets on the Juniata died of Cholera on the
12th inst., fitter an illness of a few hours.
Our informant, gentleman who was on
board, states that the captain was in appa
rent good health at noon, excepting a diar-'
rhea, for which he was Using the usual
remedies'. That at one of llie towns on the
line of canal the captain left the Packet to
visit a sick friend, and overtoolc the boat by
taking more direct ((Ah b'f rieveral miles,
on foot. Having become beatedand ex.
hausted by his walk) as soon as he came on
board, he drank pretty freely of ice water,
He was soon seised with the severe spasms
and cramps peculiar to this disease, and died
in a few hours. He was buried at New
Hamilton, about 15 miles above Lewistown
Shortly after the Captain's attack, several
passengers were attacked with cholera
symptoms, but recoverod by using frictions
and other remedies. The steward of the
boat, was also severely attacked. The boat
did not proceed further than New Hamil
ton, and on its returned stopped at Lewis-
town, where they were supplied with medl
cines by the Physicians, but none of whom
could be induced to go on board of the boat
to minister to the sick. Rather strange
and unprofessional conduct, especially as
the faculty have declared the cholera not to
be contagious.
OOUEY'fl LADY BOOK.
Godey's Lady Book for August is a most
splendid number, containing as the preced

August number is embellished with no less
than 28 engravings, besides a "handsome
piece of music. "The Bath of Beauty" is
a most beautiful and finished engraving.
The articles are from forty-three contribu

ot some of our most talented and popular
writers. Mr. Godey is determined to spare
neither labor nor money in making the

rpwards'of thirty buildings were consumed
by lire in Allegheny city on tho 16th inst.
The fire' raged with1 great violence for about
four hour. Tho loss is eitimated from &30..
000 to S-td.OOO.
At the time tiro fire broke out there was a
difiiculty betweeu tiiu lift-men aud the mu
nit-ipal authoiities, occasioned by the refusal
of the authorities to grant the firemen an ap
propriation of $4U0, which the latter de.
mandud. The councils had the mutter under
advisement at the time, and the firemen,
taking advantage of the emergency, locked
up their doors and refused to go into service.
The Pittsburgh firemen were promptly on tne
ground, but the Allegheny boys would not
permit them to even attempt to check the
progress of the flames.
Much excitement prevails in relation to the
conduct of the firemen. During the evening
the mayor had a strong patrol on the ground,
as threats wore made' to hre the entire city.

THE TULAREE FLAIM IN CALIFORNIA.
The Galena Advertiser publishes the fol
lowing extract from a private letter from Cal
ifornia: . .
The cold mines have actually ruined Cali
fornia in an agricultural point of of view. In
fact, agriculture will never be of any conse
quence in this country, except where water
can be found to Irrigate the land, and water
is scarce all over the country, except in the
mountains. As a grazing country, it is pro
bably the best in the world; and a statement
of the numbers of cattle, horses, elk, deer,
antelope, &o., that loam wild over the Tula-
ree Plains, would not be credited if stated.
These Plains are, on an average, SO miles
wide, and 500 miles long. In crossing them
I have seen a drove of elk that covered more
than four square miles of ground, all running
at the height of their speed. Droves of wild
horses und antelope were quietly feeding a j
few miles distant, without manifesting the
least alarm, as they are accustomed to such
stampedes of elk. Millions of wild geese
were flying overhead, haviug been aroused
by the elk. Their noise was deafening.
Travelling two and a half hours, nt a brisk
trot, through this wilderness of animated na
ture, brought us to the San Joaquin's timber
ed banks and to water.
At the crossing, the Tularee plains are
forty-one miles wide. The river, like a huge
anaconda, winds through their centre. The
plain is without wood or water, except im
mediately on the batiks of the river. The
plains are literally covered with elk-horns,
soni of them so large that I conld not lift
thmn. One set in particular was so enor
mous, that two men had a heavy lift to throw
it into the wagen. It is to bo sent home as a
curiosity. At the river we got some if the
finest salmon, which were speared by our In
dians. We also cautrht some small fish with
a hook and lino. The water is cold, clear.
and transparent. Salmon of 25 to fiO pounds
weight were seen wending their way up the
stream. We crossed the river in a boat,
swimming our horses. The ferryman, a Mis-
sourian, told me that fever and ague prevailed
to a fearful extent in tta neighborhood, and
I soon had occuiar demonstration of the fact',
by the shaking of a couple of lsereditary
bondsmen from Mexico) who were crossing
over with us. But the mines, considering the
exposure to which a man is subjected, are
healthy. Intermittent fever is common, but
it yields readily to quinine. But one man
died of bilious fever while 1 was there. He
was an Cregonian."
CIREAT FIRE I MAUCH CIIcSlC.
It is our painful duty to announce an awful
conflagration and great loss of property which
occurred in Manch Chunk on Sunday. All
the business portion of that nourishing bor
ough is laid in ruins. The loss is estimated
at $150,000. At least thirty-one houses have
been reduced to ashes. The follow ini is a
st of the sufferers: Dodson & Beuhull's
store and four dwellings: Deison & Williams;
dry goods merchants; Polk's drug store:
Legget's wheelwright shop; John Joseph's
hop and dwelling; Ebert's new building;
John Mier's two dwellings; John I.eisenringi
storehouse, dwelling, etc.; Mr. Fisler's
harness aud sadulerv shop; Packer & Ol
ivine's shoe store, owned by Judge Pucker:
Judge Pucker's storehouse; the court house
buildings and jail; the otiice of the Carbon
County Gazette, and materials, together with
several dwelling houses, including the Eagle
hotel.
The Odd Fellow's Hall was saved by dint
of daring seldom excelled. We understand
that the fire originated in Dodson's & Bea
tim's Warehouse, which was communicated
by means of hot ashes carelessly thrown
under the building. When discovered, the
fire had gained such headyway that resist'
ance was vain. A heavy wind prevailing at
the time, the building was soon wrapt in
flames. Its course was east, crossing Market
Square until it reached Harlan's large brick
dwelling. Great praise is dne to the citizen
and distant friends for their efforts to subdue
the flames.
A man, in attempting to gain a seat upon
the cars, while in motion, as they were de
scending from Nesquehoning, luden with
men coming to the fire, lost his balance and
fell ucross the rail. The cars passed over
him, severing his body almost in two. Ho
died shortly. Tamtupia Legion.
Tun Defenders of Rome. The regular
troops defending the city of Rome amount to
r6.00 men. Among them are 1,600 Swiss,
who have passed from the Papal service to
that of the Republic; 1,500 Poles and Hun
gamins, ana about e.uon Lombards. The
Sicilians, Neapolitans, French, and others,
amount together to about 1.400 men. About
2,000 civio guards have entered the regular
service. The remainder is composed of Ro-
niaii-volunteers. Besides these regular troops,
the civic guard and the armed people de
fend the walls, aud sometimes take part in
the) sallies.
Nativity or tub Suhkswo. The New
York Sun publishes the names-of the persons
reported as having died of cholera in that
city during the week. The following shows
the nativity of the sufferers :

To Keep Fish Alive. The London Liter-
ary Gazette, has the following, in relation to
keeping fish alive : ;t
"Those worthy individuals who take de
light in lzaao Walton's art, and who, more
over, are in the habit of sending the results
of their sports to their epiourean acquaintan
ces, must learn an indispensable piece of in
formation, viz: how to keep fish fresh. This
may be done by soaking the soft part of
bread jn brandy, and insertiug It into the gill
of the fish while it Is yet alive, afterwards
sprinkling it over gently with brandy. , Thus
prepared and carefully packed in straw, the
fish will keep alive ten or twelve days, as
may be proved by putting it in fresh water
at the end of that time, when, after a few
hours immersion, it will recover from its pro
tiacted drunkenness."
WoNDKa shk Didn't Die. In Pittsburgh,
on the evening of the 4th inst., a lady im
ngined she had an attack of the cholera, and
called in a physician. He asked her what
she had eaten during the day. She told him
ten saucers of ice cream, six dishes of rasp
berries, nine glasses of pop and mineral wa
ter, two cherry pies, one gooseberry tart, and
Bny quantity of sweet meats. The Dr. told
her if she had only drunk a glass of butter
milk, she would have saved him the trouble
of calling on her.
The Formal Commencement of tho Ohio
