Arrival of the FraniMin
LATER FROM El'ROPE.
Important anA' Interfiling news from the Seat
of War.
The U. S. Mail Seimer Franklin from
Havre vis Southampton, bound for New York,
went ashore during; a dense fog early in the
Morning of the 13:h inat. She had a cargo
of eight hundred tout of valuable merchan
dize, and about one hundred and sixty passenger,-
the latter were all landed snfely.
The news by the Franklin represents a
more immenent end interesting crises in the
pending war that has yet occurred The te
lative position of Austria and Russia is deci.
iledly hostile, and we should not be surprised
if Austria, which has so persistently hold
aloof from a warlike Attitude, should, after
all, prove the most efficient ally of Turkey.
The reply of the Emperor Nicholas, to the
Austrian summons to evacuate the Principali
ties, has been received. It is a peremptory
refusal.
Russia is determined to resist to the last
man and the last rouble.
Russia seems to be confining her occupa
tion of the Principalities to Moldavia, and
the seat of war is likely to be changed from
the valley of the Danube to the valley of the
Sereth. There is really nothing to be done
on the Danube, and the Anglo-French force
will have arrived thero to find only a legion
in the peaceful, undisturbed possession of the
Turks.
From the Baltic there is a rumor, in which
we are afraid to place reliance, that the Anglo-French
fleet is at last prepared to attack
the fortifications of Cionsladt. The taidi
ness of this attack is an evidence that it will
be a fierce one, and as the posession of the
place is of vital consequence to the Russians,
their resistance will be desperate. A repulse
would be mollifying to the English and
French, while a successful assault will throw
a spirit in the war that it has not hitherto
possessed.
Tha news from Spain is of a new insurrec
tion, though not by any means of a novel in
cident. Insurrection seems to be the natural
element of that degraded kingdom under its
corrupt court and profligate queen. The pop
ular virtue, however, seems at last to have
risen above the low level of morality in the
sovereign and her ministers, and it is possi
ble that some great events may be wrought
out of the present disturbances.
The accounts are conflicting. Madrid was j
covered with barricades.
The garrison was fraternizing with the in
surgents. Gen. O'Donnell was threatening to attack
the Palace.
The abdication of the Queen was pro
posed.
On the other hand, the Patrie declares that
the news received by telegraph from Spain
continues favorable to the government that
the insurgents, after having been defeated)
marched upon Toledo.
It is stated that the Prussian government
has received from Colonel Mantueffel, who
was sent to St. Petersburg with a despatch
lo support Austria in her summons informa
tton indicating maiked coldness on the part
of Russia.
On the 18th of Jane the Turkish troops at
tacked the Molleuio volunteers, commanded
bv Hadji Petros. After a conflict of three
hours, the Greeks were completely beaten
A considerable number were killed and
wounded Their guns and baggage were
captured. The Greeks took flight towards
Agrapha and Olympus.
FROM THE BLACK SEA.
- On the 29th of June eight Uussiena t.earn.
era came out of Sebastapol, and ac"d
three of the allied ships at the batteries.
The allied ships engaged were the Furious,
Teirible and Descarties, and the former was
much damaded. The affair seems to have
running fight. The main body of Ihe at

E7The reports of the Philadelphia,!
New York and Baltimore markets show
very decided Tall in the prices of breadstuffs
and beef, and that the tendency is si ill
downward. It is complained, however,
that the bakers and butchers do not appear
to have made the discovery. It is import
ant to consumers, in these parts' at least,
that by some means those upon whom we
depend for our supplies should be made
acquainted with the tact, that flour and
beef have fallen in price. We are usually
affected soon enough by an advance in
prices, but not so speedily or correspond
ingly by a decline.
U" Cholera. In Boston last week the
deaths by cholera were 31. The whole
number thus far in Boston has been 85
deaths, nearly all foreign paupers. In
Philadelphia, last week, the total number
of deaths was 413, of which 69 wore by
cholera asphyxia, 31 being at the alms
house, 83 by cholera infantum, 6 by chol
era morbus, 2 by cholera coma, 18 oy
diarrhoea, and 25 by dysentery. In New
York last wepk the whole number of deaths
was 817, of which 147 were by cholera.
Among the deaths in New York last week
of dysentery was Leon Javelli, the famous
tight rope dancer and pantomimist of the
Ravel troupe, with which he has been con
nected fourteen years. His illness wa'
quite a short one.
The Washington Star denies the preva-
rnce of cholera there, and says that there
is no alarm felt on the subject, either by
members of Congress or others.

LETTER ROM WASHINGTOH.
Washington, July 16, 1854.
Tha Japanese Treaty passed Ihe Senate
yesterday, without a division. It will be
followed by a treaty of commerce in a very
short time. The Reciprocity .Tieaty waa
also up, but discussed only in conversa
tional manner. .Mr. Mason, Chairman of the
Committe on Foreign Affairs, however, gave
notice that ha should press the treaty to a
vote in the course of this week. Though
the treaty has been attacked by the press,
and though some of tho Senators are opposed
lo it on Constitutional grounds, believing that
any proposition . to alter the tariff of import
duties, ought, as a revenue measure, to ori
ginate in the House, yet nil these objections
are by the majority deemed of so little con
sequence, and so easily refuted by argument,
that thero is but very little doubt of the rati
fication of the treaty by a constitutional majority.
The Homestead has rather got into a tight
place in the Senate ; quite a number of Sen
ators from the South being in favor of Mr,
Hunter's substitute. This substitute, how
ever, cannot carry unless the original friends
of Mr. Dawson's bill agreed to it. This I
am inclinert-to believe, they will not do, and
thus the bill is must likely to be postponed
till the next session, when it will be taken
in chargu early. The main point will be
to postpone the consideration of the bill to
an early day of the next session.
A last effort will bs made early this week
to get up the Military and Navy Reform bills.
They will come up very well in conjunction
to tho Army anil Navy appropriation billsi
and help, in a mensure, to explain those bill?
It is absurd to continue the low pay of otir
soldiers and s.tilois, when every other lion
ernble pursuit is yielding far greater remu
neration. The low pay of soldiers on our
frontier po.ns and in California, is only a p
mium for desertion. Where there is no pro
motion in the a'my, except as high as an or
derly sergeant, then the soldiers ought at
least to be paid in proportion to other remu
nerative labor. As to the sailors, it is pre
posterous to expect them lo enlist on board
of out men of war, when they can earn
I nearly twice a-i murh in merchant service.
There are now but fifteen working days
left of tha session ; but it is believed that
i Congress, with diligence, will be able lo get
j through with all important bills, besides the
j tegular appropiiaiion bills, and the last hope
I of prolonging the session beyond the 10th ot
August, has now completely disappeared.
The sending of Commissioners to Spain,
on close examination, is found to be sur
rounded with more difficulties than at first
anticipated, and the subject is undergoinc
a careful re-examination in cabinet council.
It will not do to send commissioners and fail
in the enterprise, and there is, besides, the
question as to the proper time for sending
the commission.
Among thu lucrative appointments that

A letter has been received from Mr. H. J.
Domville, the surgeon of the Tiger, dated
May IS, in the quarantine ground at Odessa,
in which he states that he ha been wonder
fully preserved, and able to benefit hia more
unfortunate shipmate. He says:

VII HID 1IIUIIIIIIU U UltJ 1111, HI v a. it.,
he was awoke by the crash of the ship going
on shore, and. when tho dense fog cleared a
little, they found themselves about five miles
S. E. of Odessa. Gnus were fired to attract
the attention of the other steamers, but with,
out avail. About 9 o'clock the guns from
the shore commenced firing. In less than 10
minutes the Tiger was on fire in two places
the captain and other frightfully woun
ded.
They could only use one'eun, the others
having been thro.vn overboard, or removed
to lighten the ship. He performed four am
putations before they left tho ship, which he
did almost the last, in care of the wounded,
Poor Captain Gifloid lost his lelt leg, and has
a severe wound in his right. His sufferings
were most intense for three hours under
hot sun. Ttie surgeon's knowledge of French
proved a great blessing, for some of the Rus
sian officers understooil it, anil ho was able
to send into tho town for medicine, &o.,
which greatly relieved the captain.
The midshipman, who lost both legs, and
who was a relative and nnmesake of the
captain's died on the beach, and one man on
the road. The suigeon says the kindness of
their captors is beyond words to tell. Every.
thing they want is procured at once, and he
says he has only to ask and to have. Leave
was given them to save what they could, and
the surgeon had a few clothes with him..--His
last words ure, "The captain is doing as
well ns can be expected. The amputation

Mr. Editor :
1 believe it is now pretty generally
understood that Gideon M. Voiks, will be
supported as the Democratio candidate for
Assembly by all who are not controlled by
cliques and interested politicians, who ate
determined to force the nomination and
election of David B. Montgomery. There
are many reasons why Mr. Yotks should be
supported in preference to Montgomery
This sido of the liver is entitled to the mem
bcr, and Mr. Montgomery, himself only
asked to bo elected one year in addition to
the one he served formerly. The other side
has had tho last three nominations. Twice
fur Fullmer and once for Montgomery.
Now if Mr. Montgomery was a man of any
talent, thero might be somo excuse in nomi
nating him contrary to the established usages
ol the party. But as he never exhibited any
smartness, except in voting on both sides of
some questions, and dodging others, he
cannot expect the votes of honest straight
forward men. Voting on both sides, for and
against a bill, may be very convenient. Ho
may then carry the Journal and show the
friends of the prohibitory liquor law, that he
voted in favor of the prohibitory liquor law.

THE PUBLIC HEALTH.
The deaths for last week reached the num
ber of 413, being forty-five more than the
week previous, ahd just doublo the number
of tho corresponding week last year, when
the deaths were 206. It appears from the
heal h report that 69 persons died of cholera
asphyxia, and 83 children of cholera infan
tum. The excessive heat of the first pail of
the week, lollovred by the sudden change to
cold and wot, hat no doubt caused this acces
sion to the number of deaths. More than
one half of the deaths, 223, were of cnildren
under five years of age. Thirty-one of the
deaths from cholera occurred in the Alms
house. Deducting these and the number of
deaths from cholera, leaves a traction over
rive a day.
In New York there appears to be a gieater
increase nf mortality than in this city. The
number of deaths for the week it 817, or
fifty-six more than Ihe week previous. The
deaths from cholera in that city, as the report
shows, number 147, or more than twice the
number in this city. There are bes-idea 157
deaths from cholera infantum. Some alarm
appeaia to be manifested there respecting
chnleia. Fear it the very best meant for
promoting thtt disease. Prudence and mod
eralion in eating and drinking are the best
preventative! of it. Phila. ledger.

this order ; but understand it to be kindred
to Odd Fellowship ia this, that it is an
association (or mutual sympathy and mutual
relief, embracing tho beneficial principle,
that is the payment to the sick and inhrni

There are those who object to this tic In

demociatir. The developments of Ihe last
few years, however, have strengthened this

those who adopt and govern Ihemtelvet by
