WASHINGTON, June 21.-A report was made Committee on Printing in favor of printing 80,000 extra copies of the majority ?nd minority reporteio th?Oom. mittee on Reconstruction. This was amended sc as to print 100,OOO of each, and that they be printed to 8 Ther;feceip!s from Internal Revenue sources solely for fl?A?l vim- to this date, amount to $300,107, J04. ?The Swtog necessity for a large and beautiful park j in thisby! asgwill a, for a new and better .P^denhal i Mansion is elving rise to numerous projects having these objects in view. To-day. in the Senate, Mr. Wade Seduced aresolution instructing the Committee on So Buildings and Grounds to ^"g^gS* disney of the United States acquiring the title to tho laid between Maryland-aveuue and Pennsylvauia-avc east of theOapRol to Nineteenth-street, for tho pur? pose of a Nation?! Park, in which to erect a new Pref i dential Mansion, and to report by bUl or otherwise. The resolution was adopted. The land alluded to com? prises about twohundied acres on the finest part of Capitol Hill. , Governor Hamilton, of Texas, has been here for several days, and yesterday he had a consultation with the President in regard to the political status of tho peo? ple of his State. " " , , The mail transportation on the 1st d'y of July will far exceed that of any previous period under the Gov? ernment, and with good reason to believe better ar? ranged for the convenience and interest of the whole people. Among the recent contracts is one for service from Vioksburg to New Orleans in suitable and safe Steamboats. Twenty five intermediate offices on this route will be supplied regularly three times a week. A bill was introduced in the Senate to change the! place of holding Court in tho Northern Dlstrlot of Geor- j gia from Marietta to Atlanta, The remainder of the day was consumed in con sidor ing the Tax bill. The proceedings in the House this morning were not of imfficient interest to warrant our reproducing them .' o here; especially as the substance has already been given j by telegraph. i v .. Foreign. ?! . The Austrian army now amounts to 800,000 men, of /whom 350,000 oppose the Prussians and 250,000 the ' Italians, with reserves for tither. Gen. Benedek has ' atrlckly forbidden army correspondence. Th? army opposed to Italy, commanded by Archduke A lbrecht, . consists of infantry of the line, 106,000; ri (lomen, ' 16,000; Croats? 86,000; oavalry, 5000; siege artillery, ?OOO; coast artillery, 4000; field batterios, 14,000. The Austrian navy in the Adriatio now consists of (13 vessels of all classes, 10,000 mon, 82C guns. It is reported that the Turkish navy will also defend ihe eastern shore of the Adriatic. From the London correspondence of tho Now York Times wo copy the following in relation to tho all-absorb. Jng topic of the hour: ' If the German Diet, to which Austria has referred the settlement of the Duchies, acts with spirit, it may do ore e Federal execution ngainst Prussia, which, if Prus? sia is obstinate, would be a declaration of war against' her by the whole German Confederation. In that coso I Prussia would be obliged either to renounce her policy j and pretensions, or fight austria and all Getmony bo? il i; side, legally and constitutionally arrayed against her, ..,., with the intolerable aggravation that she had jolnod Italy in a league against Germany. -<..,' I remember no war complicated as this will be; and., once begun, I, defy any one to foresee how it will end?, Prussia and Austria accuse each other, and both de? mand securities for the future. I have supposed that ; Emperor Napoleon could command peace. If he were to declaro against Prussia and Italy, It is possible. I ".doubt if he could take tho other side with an equal chance of success. France and Russia united, could | command peaco; and if peace is not preserved, it is, in my opinion, because they are not united. Italy is at once enthusiastic and desperate. As to men, the numbers are unlimited: it is means, arms and I i munitions and discipline which may bo insufficient for * the struggle. In looking over my pipers yesterday, I . turned up the following curious document. It purports to be some remarks made last summer by Prince Na? poleon, who has lately made frequent visits to tho Tuileries. He is reported to have said : ' ' You ask me if I believe in war ? Yes, I do. How is ; it to break out? I will tell you. The war will break odt in the spring, and my father-in law will oommenoe . it. The situation of Victor Emanuel is no longer en? durable. Tho public debt increases every year. This cannot last The King has reportedly written to the "?' Emperor that he must have a 'solution;' that he would ?gather be plain Chevalier de Oariguau thin play tho . jpairt of a sovereign Who noaa htmealf daily driven toward a precipice. I repeat lt-my father-in-law bas warned my cousin that in the spring he would attack tho Aus? trian lines. Believe me;.lt is thus that the struggle will commence. The King indulges in no illusions-he knows that Austria will be victorious, but he knows j that his splendid army will offer a serious resistance be ; fore giving way. The victorious army will probably oc? cupy Lombardy-possibly Turin. But then the situa? tion will chango. However great may be the Emperor's desire to maintain peace, he could not permit Austria to destroy the work of France iu Italy. He will be com? pelled to interfere in spite of himself. If, however, con nary to all expectation, the Emperor leaves my father in-law in the lurch, he would prefer to bec me King of | Piedmont as before, so as to escape the responsibility which weighs upon him respecting Italy. What is most I Srobable is, that Franco will interfere, and tuat after | ie war the King will have the whole of Northern Italy, while the Emperor will dispose of tho South." In the light of actual events, and of the present situ? ation, this statement is remarkable. The Prussian com? plication WBB not then foreseen. Thore is no doubt that a treaty exists between Prussia and Italy-if not a trea? ty, there is an understanding, and the two Powers are natural allies, because both want extension of territory, and are opposed by the same Power. The Prince of Hohenzollern, the new H ospodar of | Boumania, ls preparing to defend his newly acquired throne. He has placed himself at the head of ?tn army of thirty thousand. Tho protecting powers have, as i yet, only given him a semi-official recognition, but they will not allow the Sultan to interfere, and are disposed- ? at least France ls-to aoknawlodgo the fait accompli; J which ls a very mat thing to do, having first of all ac-i complished your fail. THE AUSTRIAN AND ITALIAN SOLDIERY COMPARED, j [Jfod?na Correspondence of the Journal des D?bats.) The basis of the education of the Italian army is agility, that of the Austrian, solidity. Nature forms tho ? Italian army, as she does almost ail the others in Eu? rope, but it is man who m > kes the Austrian. The Ital? ian army, in good or ill fortune, moves on the sugges? tions of the mind, but i;he Austrian by rule and word 'of | command. Instinct, guided by order, is tho chief pro? peller of the first; order, amounting at last to a sort of instinct, that of the second. The Austrian army is, therefore, worth more i;han tho Italian in a methodical battle with successive evolutions; but the Italian is su? perior in an assault, where the first dash breaks through, and carries all before it. That is why the Italian Generals preferred meeting the Austrian army on the p'alns of Lombardy to attacking it' behind the ramparts with whioh all Venetia is brist? ling. Tho Italian soldier knows for what ho fights; the Austrian, for whom. Tho former is a oitizon, mingles with the population, shares' its pas? sions, and feels its impulses; the latter is a soldier, and nothing else; lives isolated, hears no voice- but that of bis Corporal; his country ls tho barrack; his nation a province; his race the subjects of a foreigu ruler. The Austriin army has one traditlon-to fight; and always to fight well; but in the end rarely t> conquer. Austria has always lost territory from war. Diplomacy, and above all marriage, have done moro for hor than her armies. Felix Austria nube. The Pledmonteso army, now Italian, has also a tradition : to fight now well, now ill, but to gain decisive victories. The Duchy of Savoy has become Piedmont, and Piedmont has become Italy. The dynasty of Savoy has not gaiued a single inch of territory, whether from France, Gormany, Spain or Austria, but by force of combats or at the point of the sword; a sword, not enoumbered with many diplomati? cs! scruples. What Austria has lost she has nevor for? gotten, but she has rarely recovered any of her losses, and never single-handled. - What Piedmont has lost she has recovered, even after having forgotten it. The Bouse of Austria has lost tho Empire of Germany, Lorraine, the Netherlands, Alsace, Tuscany, tho Two SicilleB, Lombardy, Silesia, Emilia, &o., and she has lost them forever. Tbe dynasty of Savoy, either single-handed or in conjunction with allies, hts token part of all that, while perhaps wishing for much less than it has obtainod. Tho Austrian sol? dier ls more enduring than the Italian; the lattor is more ardent, more energetic in tho first ottorts. Moral feeling have Utile influenco on tho Austrian soldor, whereas the Italian is inflamed by a w?rd-Imagination, decides him to act. In the Austrian tho physical qualities aro more powerful than the mental; especially with individuals not of German origin. In tba Italiiiu, the man predominates over the beast whenever ho i? not swayod by anger or a desire of vengence. THE Crampton (Queen Anne's county) Gazette of last week, has tho following uarticulars of u novel court re? cently in session in Iliac vicinity, which we bellevo is the first of tho kind ever hold in Maryland.

The prize fight between SAM COLLIES, of Baltimore, and BAHNET AARONS, of New York, which took place at Pohick Creek, near Fort Washington, Virginia, was mentioned in our telegraphic column on Thursday morning. From the Washington Star, of Wednesday evening, wo get the following further account of the affair: About midnight last night two boats left Washing ton, the WinnimisEett and Mariner, both freighted with par? tios concerned in or designing to be spectators of a pro? posed prizo fight, to take place at some point down the I river at daylight. The Mariner party were mostly Washingtonians and Baltimorians, and the other boat carried down the New lork crowd. The number car. ried down on both boats must havo been somewhere near five hundred persons. The Superintendent of Police, fearful of violations of law by tho crowd of roughs and shoulder-hitters from New York, Baltimore, Philadelphia and other largo cities, ordered the police to arrest any of them found under the influence of liquor; but there was no disor? der beyond a little friskiness and somo little plavful dis? play of sparring up to the time the crowds left the wharves. The fight was between Samuel Collior, of Baltimore, and Barney Aarons, of New York, lor $600 a side and tho championship of the light weights. Aarons is a pugi? list ol' noto, having been the victor in Pome half a dozen contests. Collier, ;t will be remembered, fought B ora? tio Bolster, of New York, near White Houso Landing, on the 4th of May, for $300 a side. On that occasion tho fight lasted fifty-five minutes, with forty-nine rounds, at the end of which the seconds of Bolster threw up tho sponge. Bolster exhibited no little pluck, but damaged bis hands carly in the fight so badly as to have but little chanco of whining. His backers wore firm in the belief that but for this mishap the result would have been different The boats proceeded this morning some twenty-three miles down the river, and made a landing on tho Vir? ginia ahore, near Pohlok Creek. On getting ?shore the crowd proceeded some mile and a half inland, where a suitable place for the fight was lound on a by-road, between a wood and a corn field. Tho ground being selected, some difficulty oocurred as to a referee, which was settled by the selection of Charles Godfrey. Dan Oarrlgon and Dooney Harris, of j New York, acted as seconds for Aarons, and John Fitz- ! gerald and Dennis Horrigan, of Baltimore, for Col? lier. Both men showed excellent condition, but Aarons appeared to have the most confidence, and sprang into the ring considerably in advance of his opponent, offer? ing to bet five to one on winning. Collier entered tbe ring at a quarter before eight, and the mm having shaken hands and taken position, the fight commenced. ' - Aarons' fighting weight was 123 pounds, that of Col? lier 126K pounds. The first blood and first knock down was awarded to Aarons on the f urtu round. Aurons, who ls noted for his activity and manreuvring tactics, resorted occasionally to tho drop down policy illustrated by Sayers in his fight with Ueeuau, but not beyond the rules of the- ring. At tho tonth round Aarons began to show signs of distress, and evidently lacked tho powors of enduranco of his moro youthful adversary. In the eleventh round he staggered visibly, and got into the middlo of tho ring with difficulty, but afterwards rallied, and showod himself as active on his feet as when ho first entered the ring. H1B bands, however, were puffed up so that he could not deal effective blows. Through his activity he succeeded in hitting Collier much oftener than he was lilt hlmoolf; but Collier's powers of endurance ona ' bled him to pull through. Collier's hands began to swell, early in (he fight, andone ey o waa closed after the first hour. Before the dose of tho fight both of Aarons' eyes were BO nearly closed that he was almost blinded, but per? sisted In fighting on. It was painfully evident, how? ever, to bis backers that his best fighting days were over, and that he stood no ohance with his athletic young opponent, who seemed capable of standing any amount of pounding; and atthe end of the forty-seventh round the seconds of Aarons threw up the sponge, the light having lasted two hours and five minutes. Both Collier and Aarons were so muoh exhausted and so nearly blind at the end of the fight that lt was requisite to carry them to the boat on stretchers. The boats left Pohick, on their return, about ll o'clock, reaching Washington about 1 P. M. Tho news of Collier's victory was soon circulated about .town, croaking much elation amongst bis partisans, who seem to bo in the majority here. Groups collected at the street corners to talk tho mat? ter over, and any person who had been a spectator of this "hardest contested fight In America" was sui o to be the hero of a circle of eager listeners. But later in the afternoon a fluttering and scatterotlon of all such gath? erings was occasioned by a rumor circulated that the Chief of Police was making a raid upon the prinzipal participants and speotators in the affair, and pretty soon not a man could be found willing to admit that he was within t renty miles of Pohick this morning. [Both A Ano MO oud OoMiiti?,-tho- in-lncfpals In' tho" light, and a number of their seconds and friends, were arrested Wedneslay evening, but the principals wero found to be too badly injured to admit of romoval from their lodgings, They will be held for a recognition by the Governor of Virginia. The po'ioo were, at last ac? counts, aftorother partloB who aided and encouraged tho fight, and there was a genoral scamper of non-resi? dents.] Yunkecs vs. Jews. Wo copy tho following from tho Richmond Times: The Jews in the olden time, when King John and o'ther Bavage and needy sovereigns used to draw their teeth If they did not lend (In otner word3 give) money 'when it was needed, wore considered a very valuable people. Civilization and Progress, in course of time, rendered it safe for a Jew's teeth and gold to be pos? sessed by the same individual, and at he South they have been always a useful and worthy poople. To the -Federal soldiers at City Point, in the late disgraceful riot at that place, belong the honor and glory of reviv? ing the customs of the middlo ages (whon King John was a borrower), which tolerated overy species of wrong I and indignity to a harmless race, now scattered as a nation having no place whloh they can call a home, and j no country of their own. We are not the special champion ef the Jews or of | tito Jewish character, but we see nothing in their be? havior, here or elsewhere, which justifies Dnltod States soldiers In imitating the rapacious Kings and Barons j of the middle ages tn their robberies and persecutions j of thin traduoed and abused people. Nor havo we heard it-alleged in defence of the action of tho riotous sol ! dlers at City Point that they were then and thero serving tbe omiso of religion and Christianity by their conduct. But this, as a mitigating view, will doubtless be pre? sented and urgod in Congress by that pious statesman, Stevens, and other devout Radicals, should this matter over come np for discussion, The experience of the Israelites at City Point, how? ever, will not be without value to them. They doubt? less now possess a realizing souse of the truth of the old adsge that "men. of ton go a-woolllng and get fleecod." And, as they went down tho river 'to inako "much monlsh" out of tho belligerent Cuffees, they probably now perceive that nobody but Frcodmon's Bu? reau men and Massachusetts parsons will bo permit tod to do so tin molested. Our Igraelitish friends must road carefully tho roports of Generala Steedmau aud Fullerton, and they will find that thoy have no right to trespass upon the domain of Chaplain Fitz and his Now England associates. Out? siders aro not permitted to rush in and clip and shear tho black lambs. Perhaps a Massachusetts Israelite, with a cortiilcato from Frederick Douglass, might stand some chance, but we think wo have heard that thero are few, if any, of the scattered trlbos of lsraol in tho Now England States. For this curious fact we have heard many plausible reasons assigned. EIGHT DOLLARS A DAY AND STEALING.-From tho pro? ceedings iu tho House of Representatives of Juno 16, wo copy tho following choleo morceau: Mr. Garfield gave notice that ho would, next Monday, offer a resolution directing the Committee on Miloago to examino and report what discrepancy, if any, there waa between t'-io amoun? of mileage received by tho mem? bers of the loBt Congress and tho amount claimed by thom, and directing the Committee to allow no more mileage, in future, to a lnembor than is claimed by him. He explained the reason why ho wished the resolution to bo adopted. On lookmg over tho document showing the payas mileage of tho members for the last Congres}, he found himself set down as being paid 2'15 miles of travel, being for 685 milo?, whereas he had only claimed, in answer to the circular sent him by tho Chairman of the Committee on Mileage, CG5 miles aB tho distanco from his home to Washington; thut multiplied by four would make tho numoer of miles for which ho should have boen paid 2200 miles, so that he was paid for four hun? dred und eighty miles more than ho had claimed. Draw? ing bis mileage lu sume of fifty und ono hundred dollars at a timo, ho did not notice thia discrepancy, and it was only on referring to the doorment that ho became awaro of the fact. He found now, on inquiry, that other members from Ohio, ni'd, perhaps, from all pu: ls of tho country, had boen allowed more mileage than they hod claimed. Tho gentleman from Olovelaud [Mr. Spalding] claimed for only 510 miles, and was allowed for 031, and his colleague, Mr. Schenck, claimod for only 089 miles, and was allowed for 812. Tho letters in which thuy stated the number of miles travelled, in re? ply to the circular of tho Chairman of tho Commlttco on Mileago, wero lound in tho hands of the Sorgoaut-at Anus, aud indorsed with the number ol' miles, "ap? proved. J. W. \V"" tho initials of Mr. White, of Ohio, Chairman ol' tho Committee. In the case of hi? collenguo [Mr. Schonck] ho had dis? covered, on being paid the balanco due him the last day of Cougresa, the discrepancy, and had declined to receive tho increased amount. It aopoarcd that tho Committee ou Mileage hud, lu this way, got up a soalo of distances utterly unknown to tho nicnibois, and now tho whole thing was published to Congress and tho country, and members nore sot down is having re? ceived a very considerable umount moro than I hoy had chimed. Ho therefore gave tim notico that ho would next Monday ask unanimous consent to offer tho reso? lution directing tho Ooninuiieu on Mileage to inquire into the matter, SPECIAL NOTICES. 49" MARRIAGE AND CELIBACY, an Essay of Warning and Instruction for Terang Men.

TESTIMONY OF RECOMMENDATIONS From Medical gentlemen, Professors bf the highest Opthalmic talent in Charleston, S. C., and in the Union, CHARLESTON, S. 0., May 28th, 1886. I have examined a great variety of Glasses manufac? tured by Professor M. BEBNHABDT, and in justice to the Professor must say, that his Glasses are of a superior ' quality, adapted to meet the wants of almost every eye, where tho vision ie lu any way imperfect. The Profes? sor solecled for me a pair of his Australian Crystal Glasses which are of a very superior,quality ?nd work? manship, rendering vision very distinct, almost as per? I feet as in youth. I yield this testimony in favor of the ? Professor's Glasses most cheerfully. E. GEDDINGS, M. D. I cheerfully concur in the opini?n above expressed of' the value of Professor BEHN HA rtDTB' Glisses, and their' adaptability to all defocts of vision, and oleo to his skill andi judgment in adapting the glass to each special im? perfection. H. W. DitSAUSSUBE, M. D. CHARLESTON, S. C., May 28th, 1806. I do most willingly bear my testimony in favor of the superiority of tho Australian Crystal-single and doa? bio vision spectacles ovor all other kinds; They are ? constructed upon tho best established and understood' principles of optics, and their adaptation to the human oyo in its different conditions of vision ls so perfect, as to render sight easy without effort. In my opinion, none others should be used sinco the eyes once used to those do not seem to grow old, and by having a foous at any point of the surfaco, thoy appear to rest o'er tho eyeB to their youthful energy. T. L. O GIER, M. D. CHARLESTON, S. C., May 28th, 186?. I have examined Professor BERNHARDTS' very com? plete assortment of Spectacles and Lenses. They are better adapted than any I have before sat n to remedy the imperfection of vision that can bo benefitted by the use of Glasses, Tho pureness and clearness of the Crys? tal used, is an item worthy of special attention, as I can testify from personal experience. I recommend Profes? sor BERNHARDT with confldenco and great cheerfulness, to the patronage of tho public. JAMES P. JERVEY, M. D.
