Additional by the Nova Scotian. I The Nova Scotian brings Liverpool dates 1 to the 4th May. The Austrians had taken the Buffalora bridge, after a sharp conflict, and with consid erable loss. This bridge is remarkable for its maguiticent structure, and crtm.es the river Ti;:ao at Buffdoma, a towu of Northern Italy, in Lombardy. It was also reported that the town of Mor tara, in Piedmont, had been taken by the Austrians. It is a walled city, with a sparse population. A Royal Proclamation has been issued of fering a bounty of ten pounds sterling for seamen, with the intention of recruiting ten thousand more men for the British navy. Great activity prevailed in the English dock yards, and England is evidently preparing for war. In all probability there was a sharp action at the Bridge of Buffalora on the 28th April. It is reported that the Austrians took it at the point of the bayonet. It was teported that Mortara haZ been taken, and that the Sardinians had retreated before the Austrians, near-Lago(or latke) Mag giore. The telegraph wires to Switzerland had been out by the Austrians. - The Austrians were concentrating in great numbers at the fortified city of Placenz i, in North Italy. Forty thousand French troops were at Genoa. The King of Sardina accompanies Generals Canrobert and Neill, on the line of opera tions on the river Dora. The Prussian government had resolved to put her army in readiness to march. A great many -failures are reported in the Exchange in London. The Bank of Franee has raised its rates for discount from three to four per cent. The French Minister at Vienna, and the Austrian Minister at Paris, have retired frow their respective posts. Four days Later from Europe. Sr. Jouss, N. F., MaIy 20.-The steam alip City of Baltimore was to trded off Cape Race to-day by the yacht of the Associated Press. The steamer brings dates to the 11th inst., being four days later than previ.>us ar r.vals. The salus of Cotton for three days were 29,000 bales, with an advance of 3.lths to $d. The a trket closed quiet and steady. There wai a considerable decline in bread stuffs. Provisions quiet and quotations nominal. No battle had been fought on the Conti nent, when the steamer left. The latest intelligence from the Austrian army seemed to give color to the opinion that the army was retrograding. The ma ucsvre, however, was not understood. Rome continued tranquil. A letter from Vienna, to the editor of the London T1ms, says: " Turkey is on the eve of raising one hundrad and twenty thousand Inen, to be concentrated at Scbumla." Tuis is a tortified city of Earnpean Turkey ; loca ted in a gorge, protected on three sides by mounais; and is on the great route from Wallachia to Constantinople. The Russian attempted in vain.to take Schunla in 1774, 1810, and 1828, and it is probable Turkey apprehends another attack by the Russians in 1859. A battle was hourly expected to take place between the belligerents in Sardina, but up to the sailing of the Canjada, no action had been reported. - Thae attempt of the Austrians to cross the river Po at Trassinto, was unauccessful, af tor fifteen hours' of cannonade. The loss was inconsiderable. They report having crossed the river at Cornate and were fortified at the head of the bridge. The Emperor Napoleon has officially an nounced that Austrian wubjects, residing in France, can remain, but their conduct must be such as not to readertheir expulsion neces 'ihe- London Daily Neres says that France is about to mobilise, or call into active service, seven or eight hundred thousand men; and that the French army of observation on the Rinte will be increased to five hundred thou sand. Austrian vessels arriving at French ports, ignorant of the existence of war, are allowed six weeks to remain in French waters. It is stated that Queen Victoria had sent an autoigraph letter to the Emperor Napoleon, expres.ing her confidence in his strict honor, and that he will not go one step further than he assured her some months ago, he would go. It was reported France was endeavoring to secure the neutrality of Prussia, promising not to form an army of observation on the Rhine, and to circumscribe the war to Italy. No battle had yet occurred in Piedmont. No material. change in the condition o1 Itahian affairs had occurred since the depar ture of the Canaa. Heavy continued rains have dampened the ardor of the belligerents, and stopped the progress of their marches. The Emperor and Prince Napoleon left for Genoa on the 10th of Mlay. The Empress Eugenie had been proclaimed Regent of France. Munch sickness prevails among the Austrian forces. The Sardinians were preparing a magnifi cent reception for Napoleon at Genoa. It was reported that Austria will soon have seven hundred and fifty thotisand troops. Proclamation of the Kcing of Sardinia. The following proclamation has been ad dressed by Victor Emmanuel to his troops: " Soldiers !-Austria. who is increasing her armies on our frontier and threatens to invade our territory because here liberty reigns with order-because, not might, but concord and affection between the people and the Sover eign here govern the State-because the troans of oppressed Italy here find an echo --Austria dares to ask us, who are only arm ed in self-defense, to lay down our arms and submit to her "lemency. " That insulting demand received the reply it deserved. I rejected it with contempt. Soldiers, 1 tell it to you, convinced that you will take an insult to your King and your nation as an insult to yourselves. The an nouncement I make to you is the announce ment of war ! Soldiera, to anmsl "You will have to face an- enemy net new to you. But if brave and disciplined you need not fear the comparison, and you may .quote with pride the battles of Gotto, Pas trenga, Santa Lucia, Somma-Compagna, and even Custozza, where four brigades alone struggled for three 4ays against five corps d'armee. " Iwill lead you. We have made each other's acquaintance before this, on more than one occasion, in the heat of battles, when, fighting by the aide of my magnanimous father, I had opportunity to admire your courage. "1I am sure that on the field.of honor and of glor'y you will maintain, even add to, your reputation for bravery. You will have for~ companions those intrepid soldiers of France, conquer ors in so many noted battles, who were your brethren in arms on the Tchernays, and whom Napoleon Ill., who is always to be found where there is a juat cause to defend or civilization to promote, sends generously to our assistance in numerous battalions. "March, then, conlident in victory, and twine new laurels round your flag, that tri color, under the folds of which the elite of the youth of Italy Is collected, and which in dicates to you that the &sk before you is the Independence of Italy-that just aud holy work which will be your battle-cry. VreToa ExxAxUrL." Turin, April 27. In addition to the proclamation addressed to the army, the King of Sardinia has issued a prodamation, counztersigned by Count Ca your, to Italy. The substance is as follows. " Austria, who boasts of her love for peace, attacks us by refusing to submit to a Euro pean Congress. She violates the promises iileto England; she sks us to reduce our artny, and to abandon those brave volunteers who have thronged fromu every part of'Italy to defend the acred flag of Italian indepen dence. I intrust the cares of Government to may well-loved consort and draw my sword.

I havo ordered my taithful and gallant army to put a stop to the inimical :t i, wiicb for a seric< of years have beei committed by the naighboring state of Sardins again4t the in di -putable rights of my crown, an.l againA-t the integrity of tue reahn placeu by G- under my care, whic:, acts have lately attuined the very highest point. By at) doing I have fu filled the painful but unavoidable duty of a sovereign. My conscience being at rest, I can loZ tp to aa omnipotent God, and pa tiently aw at His award. With Confidence I leave my dcision to the inpartial jigtment of contemporaneous and future gentrt is. Of the approbation of msay itinful subjects I am sure. More than ten years ago the same enemy-violating international law and the us iges of war, wit:iout any 'ffence being given-.entered the Lotmbardo-Veneti.mi ter ritory with the intentio.a of acquiring posies sion of it. Althona the enemy was twice totally defeated by my gallant army, and at the mercy uf the victor, I behaved generous ly and proposed a reconcilliation. I did not appropriate to myselt one inch of his torrito ry. I encroached on no right whiob belongs to the crown of 8ardinia, as one of the mem bers of the Europea- family of nations. I insisted on no guarantees against the recur rence of similar events. The hand of peace which I in all sincerity extended, and which was taken, appeared to me to be a sufficient. .,uarantee. The blood which my army shed for the ho.nor and right of Austria I racrifinel oa the altar of peace. The reward for suc.. unexampled forbearance was a hutni.-diate continuationi of enmnity, which increawed froin year t-, year, and perfl-lioui agitation aga nt t jeptace antd welfare of my Lombardo-Vene tian king.:o:n. Well knowing wiat a m e.iotum boion peace was fur my people and for Z arope, I p Atiently bore witi these new hos tilities. My patience was not exhausted wilen tli mjore extensive mer-ure, which I was forced to t4ly, in consequence of t.he revolutionary agit*tion ot thp frontiers of my Italian provinces and within 4sme, wprp gade a i excuse for a higher degree of hostility. Willingly accepting the well meant mediation of friendly powers for the maintenance of peace, I consented to become a party to a Congress of the five great powers. The four p.inS proposed by tue royal government of Gveat Britain sq a buais for the deliberations of the Congress, were forwarded to my Cabi net, and I accepted them, with the conditions which were calculated to bring about a true, sincere and dutable peace. In the con-cious ness that no step on the part of my govern ment could. even in the tiA remote degree, lead to a disturbance of the peace, I demand e-i that the power wbich was the cause of the complication and had brought the danger qf war, should, as a prelituinary measureAtdisarn. Being pressed thereto by friendly powers, 1 at length accepted the proposal for a general disarmnament The mediation failed in conse quence of the uanacceptableness of' the condi tion's on which Sardzinia made her co.nsent de pendent. Only one means of maintaining peace remained. I addressed myself directly to the Sardinian Government, and summoned it to place its army on a p--ace foouinig and to disband the free corps. As Sardinia did not accede to my demiand, the mtomen~tt f.or deciding the matter by an appa4l O. arms has arrived. I have ordered nmy army to estar Sardini. I am aware of' the vast imnportance of the measure, and if ever my duties as a maonarcb weighed heavily on me it is at this moment. War is the scourge of maukind. I see with sorrow that the lives and property of thou sands of' my subjects are imperilled, and deeply feel what a severe trial war is for mty realm, wvhich, beinig occupied with intertnal development, gtreatly requires the continuance of peace. But therheart of the monarch must be silent at the comm aand of honor and duty. On the frontier is an armed, enemy, who, in alliance tvith the revolutionary party, opaenly announces his intention to obtain posesionm of the dependencies of Aus:ria in Italy. To support hitm, thme rtuler over' France..who under futile pretexts interferes in the legally established relations of the Italian P~ninsula -has set his troops in movevent. Detach ments of them have already crossed the fron tiers of Sardinia. Thte crown which I re ceived without r-pot or blemish from my fore fathers has already seen trying times. The glorious history of our country gives evidence that Providence, when there is a forcshadow ing that te gratest good of humanity is in danger of being overthrown ini Europe, has' frequently used the sword of Austria in or der to dispel that shadow. We are again on the eve of such a period. Thte overthrow of the things that be is not only aimed at by factions, but by thrones. (The original cannoet be rendered literally, but its sense is, that te present revolution-try tnovemnent is catuseda by mo narchs as well as by private iindi vidu als.) The sword which I have been forced toi dr.aw is sanctified, inasninch as it is a def.mace for the honor and rights of all peoples and States, and fnr all that is held miost dear by hu ianity. 1u you, my people, w's dlevotion to the heredtary reigning family may serve a.' a model for all the nations of the earth, I now .addre.s tuyself.

To yomur sos, whom I have taken into the ranks of the zarmy, I, their commnandor, send omy martial greeting. With pride you mnay regard them, for the eagle of Austria will, with their sup port, soar high. Our struggle is a just one, andI we begin it with courage and confidence. We hope, how ever, that we shall not stanad alonie in it.

Time eling that such a danger is n'ow immti nent prevails in all parts of' Germany, from the hut to the throne-from one frontier to the other.

For God and fatherland. Given at my residence and metropolis of Vienna, on this 28th day of A pril. 18.59. FRANCIS JOSEPH. The French Mauifesto. Sa : The communication which has been made, by order of his Jumperial Majesty, to the Senate and to the legislative body, ren ders it needle.s fur me to revert to incidetnts which have occupied public opituion for some weeks past, and have been the subsject of my last despatchmes. The gravity of thea present state of affair-s has reached a culminating point, and1 the denoaescal before mas will not. unhappily, be that which honest andl per-sever-. in eors hae endeavored to tobtain. In stuch a serious conjuncture it is a great consolation to the Emperor's governmentt to be able to submit without hesitation to the verdict of Europe the question as to on what power the responsibility of events rests. That the state of things in Ttaly was ab normal, that the discontent and underhand agitation which resulted therefrom constitu ted a danger for evem y one which reason bid to be stopped by a prudent precaution ; an inevitable crisis was understood equally by) England, Prussia and Rlussia, as well as by Erance. The unanimity of apprehensions imn mediately created the conformity of senti ments and measures. Lord Cowley's mission to Vienna, the proposal of a Congress, emana-< ting from St. Petersburg, the snpport given by Prussia to these attempts at an ar-range-1 ent, the eagerness of Franceto adhere to 1 Je combinations which followed each other 1 :p to the last moment ; all these acts, in a, word, emnanated from the -same inspiration.-. se.inom saiie beim. to annIant . eace by no longer ignoring a difficulty which g to evidently threatened to disturb it. In this jase of the alair, the Emperors i lovernment' has had its share of initiative tnd action ; but this salre-I am particular a stating it-has always been mixed up with L collective l&bor. France simply offered her e-o-loprati i as a great European power to settle ainicibly and honestly with the other - power4 a question which-1 do not deny it arosnled htr sympatines; but in which she lid nut yet perceive particular duties to ful til or urgent iisrcrests to dtfend. The day upon wihica i be Vieinna Calilnet had oromised, by a solinit dleclaratiOni. not tio commI1iiiptice hoitilities. it s:emted it-elf to anticipate the t ttitinle Winch any aggressive aet against t Pie-niont wou d cause the government of the 1 Emperor to assume. . Such an as.'irance, by giving time to the mnediation of the powers to exert itself, al lowed the h'ope of the proximate meeting of tue Cungress. In fact, Englanil had just set tiled, with the aisent of France, Prussia and Russia, the last conditions for the meeting of that assembly where the place which justice and reason assigied to the Italian States was granted to them. Sardinia. on her part, ad hered to the principle of a simultaneous and previous .i-armuanent of all the powers which, for soie time past, had increased their 'mili tary streugth. To these tokens of peace, the Vienna Cabinet suddenly opposed an act wLiich, to characterize it as it deserves, is equivalent to a declaratign of war. Thus Austria destroys alone, and with in tent, the earnest labors of England, seconded &) honestly by Russia and Prussia, facilitated with so much moderation by France. Not only does she exclu.le Sardinia from the Con gress; sbp 'summon' her, under penalty of coercion, to disarm without any condition within three days. A larger military force is displayed at the eame time on the banks of the Ticino, and, to say the truth, it is in the midst of an advan cing army that the Austrian commander-in chief awaits the reply of the Paris Cabinet. You are aware, sir, of the impresslon pro -lueed at London, Berlin and St. Petersburg 11y the untimely an. fatal resolution of the ionna Cabinet. The astonibhment and dis approval of the three powers was displayed as a protest whicn public opinion has echoed throughout all Eurup . If England, Pruils:a arid Russia, by the step they hasteted to take, have been able to relieve the:r moral responsibility and to satisfy the exactions of their offended digni ty, the government of the Enperor-actua ted, however, by analagous considerations had to mark its attitude more distinctly, and ..ther obligations were imposed upon it. N'othing uloi4es the solidarity which was establisned qt the *ontmospppt lieween us and the mediating powers; the question re mains at bottom the same; but we have too muen contidence in the intentions of which those powers have given us such striking proofs to fear for a moment that they should misunderstand the sense of the policy which ancient traditiuns and imperious necessities of geographical position so naturally indicate to u111. France, since half a century, has never pre tended to exercise an interested influence in Italy, and it is not she, assusedly, who can be accused of having attempted to arouse the remembrance of ancient struggles and histori cal rivalities. All that she has hitherto ask 9d for, and treaties agree with her wishes, is that the States of the (Italian) Peninsula should live for themselves and manage their own affairs at home as well as in their foreign relations. I aiu not aware that a different view is taken at London, Berlin, or St. Peters burg than ast P'aris; however it may be, circtnstances have placed Austria lowards the various powers or Italy in a position un animously judied as preponderating. Sardinia alone has hitherto escaped an in finence which, by general consent, has changed iu an inportant portion of Europe the balance Kof power which it was attempted to establish. Everywhere slee this fact was very grave; but whatever were our priyate sentimpents, at might suffice for us, knowing the opinions of the other Cabineta, to point out to theni the evil to correct, So much reserve, when Sardiniais concern ed, would be to forget our most essential In Mrpts. It is not the conformnation of tbe ground which, iem this side, commands one of the frontiers of France; the passes of the Alps are not in our hands, and it is more im portant for us that. the key should be kept at Turin, and at Turin only. ,French considera; tions, but which are also European consider ations as long as respect of the rights and of the legitimate interest of the powers will con tinue to serve as a guiide to their reciprocal relations--.these considerations, I say, do not allow the Emlperor's GJovernmnent to besitate npon the ine of policy it ought to follow whben a State so considerable as Austria uses threatenigg language towards Piedmont, and openly prepares to dictate laws to it. This obligation acquires additionual force from the refusal of Austria to discuss before actitnr. We do not wish at any price to find ourselves face to face with an accomplishing fact, and it is sucti fact which the Government of the Emperor is resolved to prevent. It is not, therefore, an offensive -attitude, it is a mneas tare of defence which we are now adlopting. Auncient remembhrances, comnmunity of origin, a recent allia- ce of the sotvereign housesi, unite us to S-trdinia. These are seriotus reasons for sympathy, which we fully appre ciate, but which, perhaps, would not suffice to decide us. What distinctly- poinits out our path is the permainent awld hereditary inter est of F~r.meie, the abs~olute impoausibility for the Emnperor's Govermoeisnt to atllow a low to be struck which w nbll establish at the .Alps, conitrary to the wishie< of a frienidly ina tion and to tihe wi-h of its movereain. a state of thinigs which would subject the whole of Italy to a foreign influence. Ulia Imperial Maje-ty, strictly faithful to the words which lie pronounced wheti the French people recalleAd himt to the throno of the chief of Itis (dytnasty, is not animatesd by any personal amubitionu or desire of conquest. It is niot long since the Etmperor gave a proof, in an European ertoi<, that moderation wvas the SOUl of his policy. That mode auon still pre sities over his designis, anid, while shielding the interest which Providence has entrusted to him, his Majesty has no idea, you may most positively assert it, of separating lhin views front t1loce uf his allies. Far front it, his government, referripg to the incidents which have marked the negotiations of thp preceeding weeks, entertains the firm hope that the Government of Her Britannic Majes cy will continue to persevere in an attitude wichl, by uniting by a moral bond the policy of the two countries, will allow the Cabinets ci Paris and of London to give mutual expla nations without reserve, and to combine ac cording to eventualities, an entente destined to preserve the Continent from the effects of struggle which may arise at one of its ex tremities. Russia, we are perfectly convinced of it, will be always ready to direct her efiorts to the s.amae end. As regards Prussia, the im partial and, at the same time, conciliating1 spi it of which she has given proof since the commnencemnent of the crisis, is a sure guaran tee of her Inclination to neglect nothing to aircumsecribe the explosion. We sincerely hope that the other janwers which form the G.-nman Confederation will not allow thetm <elves to be led astray by tho remaembrancos fa different epoch. France can only behold with sorrow the excitemeint which has seized iapon some States of Germany. She does not inderstand how that great country, ordinari ly so calm and so patriotically imbued with the knowledge of its strength, should fancy' ts safety mtenaced by events, the theatre of 1 vrhich must remain far from its territory.< The Emperor's government isu therefbo prone to believe that the statesmen of Ger- a inawsy will soon admis that it depends a grat ieal upon themselves to contribute to limit, the extent and the duration of a war which, l'rance, if she has to take part in it1 has at east the consciousnessof not having provoked. I request you, sir, to point out the consider." ations developed in this despatch in your next i nterview with M. -, and to leave him a sopy.

GENERAL WALLACE was a self-made. man, as the term goes, and- led a life of singular mergy and usefulness. Successful in his early las as a merchant, he afterwards rose to eminence in politics and in the military. He was often a member of the State Legislature, and served oe r two terms In Congress with high acceptability to the spirited people of the old Pinckney District. But for his declining health, it is probable that he would have been honored with the office of Gover nor, as a crowning compliment to a devotedocitisen and an ardent lover of hie native State. H1e was ever oonspicuous for his enthusiasm in the common cause of States and Southern Rights,-a' Nullifer in 1832, a Secessionist in 1851, and on all o0o8sios ready to uplift his manly voice on the side of his honest convictions. Yet was he generous and considerate towards his opponents, while bold and resolute in the maintenance of his principles.

Generally, they have been fraught with great good to the planting interests. But there are some neighborhoods wich have been considerably in.u red by the storile. f'rom scysral portions of this district, we receive account. of disasters fromti cause. The young cotton has in a few locsilities been battered and destroyed by hail, necessitating the work of thorough re-planting; whilein other. places the winds and wi.ii'iing rains have played havoc with the soil.

M The Sabbath School Celebration, intended for , Lhursday last, was postponed on account of the & nolemeney of the weather. It is contemplated, as re learn, to carry it out at some early day,-pro >ably in the mouth of June. This should be done >y all means, Our Sunday schools are becoming d natitutions w"ich all of us should be eager to ap- A ilaud and -honor. In our several Churches 'the ti work is progressing with spirit aud endgry. The f Baptist school numbers about one huinded tad , wenty ; the Methodist some sixty or seventy; and S the' Episcopal school is also carefully fostered. I Besides those for.white children, all the denuomi nations have schools for the blacks which are in a highly flourishing condition. And, taken all a together, they form a manifestation of religious d progress which every good citizen,-not *to say i Christian,-should delight in encouraging ly his i approbation, if iot by his active participation. The spreading power of Sabbath school iniu- f ences ranks high among the Indications which a betoken the coming of that era wherein the powers 1 of darkness shall fall discomfited bef6re the pre- c valence of that wisdom which oometh from above. c Never before were these influences so extensive or c blessed with such abundant fruits. Throughout I the Protestant world this noble cause is awaken ing all classes and all sets to earnest exertion in F the propagation of evangelical truth. The labors c thus called forth are redoubling in efiaoaey with every succeeding year. True it is, that wicked ness of the moot revolting kind still stalks abroad amongst men; But it is also true, that Religion is I lifting up her fair banners with now zeal, and the P helmets of her soldiery are glittering on every side with unwonted brightness. Who knows but that the Host of Heaven is already marshalling Its pre parations for the last grand battle with the Great Enemy ? Many wise and good there are, who regard the supposiltion In accordance with the light of propheoy, so far an man may discern It. If so, does not the Sibbath Sohool deserve to be esteemed one of the prime rallying points on earth for those who would " come up to the help of -the Lord against the mighty?" The rebel-spirits may well tremble atits Increase. The Arch-Trai tor of them all may find in it one of the most certain signs of his approaching downfall. We surely cannot be mistaken in terming it an In strumentality which Heaven's King is rapidly advancing to lccefe for gono gre t end. Is it not raid $p gay, t t it is at least a highly im portant tributary of that great tide of glory which shall continue henceforth to deepen, and expand, and gather force, until the knowledge of God shall oover the earth as the waters cover the sea. Viewed in.this light, who will refuse his applause to the success of the Sabbath School? Who does not wish its laborers God-speed in their noble work? Who would not join in honoring and ex alting the cause ? Who would not aid (if he might) in swelling the triumphant chorus of this advan cing eolumn of the church militant, until itagrand crescendo should pervade the four quarters of the globe with the universal hymn of "Peace on earth-.-Good Wll totoards inwn."
