[From the Journal Des De bat t.] Those who reproaoh Italy for her alliance with Prussia Boom to us not to understand the im menso advantage of that alliance, not only to Italy, bnt also to France, and to that European equilibrium to which everybody appeals. This al liance ia nothinc leas than the rapture of the German unity-of that unity which waa held np to na as a acareorow. The ever ready coalition of Germany hau existed over atnoe 1815, and it has naturally and spontaneously anser tod itself in every great European crisis, l'rudaia, which now asks for the exclusion of Austria from the Germania Confederation, had always maintained hitherto the principle that the Austrian possessions in Italy were ?German territory, under the guaran tee of Germany. In 1848, when it might have been thought that the Gorman revolution would join hands with the Italian revolution, we saw, on the contrary, tho German Democrats side wita Austria against Italy. Every one known, and the Emperor doolared, in one of his messages to the Chambers, that the reason why the war of 1859 waa suddenly brought to a close before Italy waa free from the Alna to the Adriatic waa that Ger many threatened to move, and that Prussia her self was coming to the sBHistanco of her confede rate. And when in 1862 Prussia recognized the Kingdom of Italy, did she not stipulate as a con dition that Vene ti a'should form part of the Con federation? Scarcely four yoara ago Prussia spoke thua, and now that she offers to aid Italy in obtaining Venice, Italy ?B to let auch an occasion eaoapo her. And now that tho German coalition ia dissolving of itself, Franca is to re-establish and support it. It is a thorough incongruity. SUSPICIOUS MOVEMENTS IK RUSSIA. [Berlin (June 13) Correspondence of the London Timer] Strange news reaohes us from Cracow. The Itui'siiui force which haa hoon long concentrated in Southern Poland, and is now ?lowly advancing in the direction of the fliloaian frontier, will, it is surmiaed in Austrian Poland, take up snob a posi tion as to eventually be at the disposal of the Kaiser. This may bo a mere report, the ephe meral offspring of anxiety and credulity; utill as so many other things thought to be impossible are on the point of being realized, it is not per haps ill-advised in a correspondent to repeat the improbable. No doubt Russia has of late been more favoi able to the Vienna than the Berlin Cabinet; bat if the Emperor Alexander oonld ro I Bolve so far to undergo the almost filial respect he ever ovinoed fort the person of his reverend uncle William L as to fight bim in the open field, it would be unintelligible why he does not go a little further, and veto the war altogether. FINANCIAL POSITION OF THE BELXIOEBENT POWEB8. A Fronoh financier and politfeal economist haa examined the finanoial position of the three Pow ers about to engage in war, and setting aside the advantage whioh each may derive from the gal lantry of its army and the skill of its gonerals, he Boeku out the one who shall bo best served by its material resources. He begins with Prueai?, whose finances, previous to Count Bismark's ad ministration, were in excellent order. Her fund ed debt was only about ?40,000,000, and her an nual expenditure ?24,000.000-only the third of that of France. Count Bismark, however, oalled 500,000 mon to arms, and all the savings of for mer Ministers have been expended. Confidence, moreover, is destroyed, so that Prussian paper money is at a discount, and the Prussian bank has found it necessary to miso its discount to 9} per cent. Turning to Austria, he says the finanoial picture is very dark. Austria haa not ceased to inoreaee the deficiency in her bndget during the last eigh teen years, and to contract loan upon loan. Con senuontlv. her debt is increasing, and her credit is diminishing in an equ?l pronortion. The Aus trian debt is oitimated at ?240,000,000. The Aus trian Ministor of Finance has increased all the taxes, BO as to arrive at a revenue of ?40,000. The totemt on the debt absorbs so much of the reve nue, that it will be impossible to maintain the pre sent standing army with the balance. Her bank ruptcy ia becoming imminent, but the loss will fall chiefly on Frankfort, Amsterdam, Antwerp and Brussels, from whioh Austria receives her supplies of money. Leaving the Government of Francis Joseph, bo arrives at that of Victor Emanuel. The Italian debt in 1860, after the annexation of Tuscany and the Marches, amounted to ?100,000,000. It has been since doubled. The Italian Rentes was quo ted at 84 in May, 1861; at present it ia quoted at 87. The Italian Government has been constantly increasing its army since 1860 without engaging in war. It haa, moreover, contracted engage monts with railway companies which amount to above ?2,000,000 a year. The two-thirdB of theso railways aro completed, but their bonds hnvo fall en considerably below par. Tho Italian Govern ment has just issued paper money, which, accord ing to tho Finance, is at a discount of 20 percent., and, according to tho Humains Financiero, at 8. The truth is that there is no fixed rato at which Italian paper money can bo convortod into gold. It is under these auspices that tho Italian Govern ment is about to attack the Quadrilateral. TOE PBUSSIAN PLAN OF CAMPAION. [Military Correspondence of (he London Time* J IU:HI,IN, Monday, Juno 11. * * * Tiie King has apparently been dis cussing tho plan of the campaign during tho last throe days. On Saturday ho had a long mtorviow with General von Schack, who commands tho Fourth corps d'armee, and Princo Augusto of Wurtomburg, who is tho Gonoral of the Corps of tho Guards. Ho was afterward engaged for seve ral hours with General von Boou, tho Ministor of War, when Generals von Moltko, von Alvonsloben and von Troskow woro also present. Of course nothing that passes at theso secret meetings over ekes out, but a general impression ia floating about to-day that in the ovont of war being declatod it ia expectod that Austria will attack Silosia. This step would almost drive the Prussians to advance on Dresdon, and thus Austria Would cast upon tho Cabinet of Uorlin the odium of being tho first to invade Federal territory. It is behoved that immediately tho Prussian van crosses tho frontier into Saxony, the nowa of its advanco will bo telegraphed to Gen. Benedok's troops, on the Bohemian frontier of Saxony, and that they will at once movo upon Drosdon. Should there be any foundation for this impression, the raco to Dresden will be a dobo one. The Prussians have tho longer distanco to go ovor, and as moans will, in all probability, bo taken by Saxony to allow some part at least of the Austrian army to travel by railway, the Aus trian advanced guard has a good chance of first gaining possession of tho Saxon capital. It is quite natural to suppose that Gen. Bonedok will attempt to carry the war into Saxony and South ern Brandenburg, both because the line be tween the Bohemian frontier and Berlin, his probable objective point, is shorter by that route than by Silesia, and bocauso he is said to ho desirous of taking advantage of the flat plains of Saxony and the Upper Sproo for the action of the much-vaunted Austrian cavalry. All anticipations of a campaign must, however, be mere specula tions; a single shower of min, or the accidental oapture of an aide-do-camp carrying an ordor, may mar the most skillful strategical combina tions, even after they have been carefully planned and maturely considered, how much more liable to alteration must ideas bo whioh are formed be fore the opening of a campaign, when, the posi tions of an enemy, whose movements aro shroud ed by a curtain of mountains, can barely be guess ed at, and whoso numbers oannot be even ap Eroximately ascertained I The It aliaos have pro ably given the Austrians some reasons to fear an attack on Hungarv, for a large Austrian army is reported to have been carried suddenly to the Bosnian frontier. If this report is well founded the nucleus of this army is probably somo portion of the reserves of the force whioh is now under the command of Gen. Benedek in Bohomia and Moravia. NAPOLEON'S LETTES. From NAPOLEON'S recent lotter to the Frenoh Legislature, on the present state of affairs of Europe, wo make the following oxtraots: In the war whioh is about to break out wo have but two interests-the maintenance of the Euro pean equilibrium and the maintenance of that which we have contributed to oonstituto In Italy. But to save these two interests does not the moral force of France suffice ? In order that her Toioe uhi.fi be listened to will she be obligod to draw the sword ? I do not think so. A If, in spite of our efforts, the hopes of peace are not realized, we are nevertheless re-assured by the declarations of the Courts engaged in the con flict, that whatever be the results or the war. none of the questions which touch us shall bo resolved without the assent of France. Let us, then, continue in a vigilant neutrality; and. strong in our disinterestedness, animated by a sincere desire to see the nations i f Europe for f?et their quarrels, and unite in the cause of oivi ization, liberty and progress, let us still remain confident in our right and calm in our force. Whereupon, M. le Ministro, I pray God to keep you in His holy guard. NAPOLEON. HOW THE LETTES IS BECEIVED IN FBAMCE. [From the Conttitutionnel (lemi-offieial) June 19.] The letter whioh tho Emperor has addressed to the Minister of Foreign Affairs is an eloquent summary of the policy followed by the Frenoh Government Bince tho day on which the difficul ties now about to bo abandoned to the hazards of war first disturbed and agitated Europe. This noble language, inspired by profound wisdom and the most ainctre love of peace, will be heard throughout tho whole world-will even predomi nate over the noise of war. PBINCE PBEDEBICE CHAULES, OF PBUB8IA. If the Prussian armies are put forward under tho command of Princo Frederiok diarios, thoy will have no very remarkable loader, since the Prince is mainly distinguished as the son-in-law of Queen Victoria,.and is said to be afflicted with the ohronio stupidity whioh affects Prussian princes. He will necessarily be surrounded by a very able staff, and men of military genius will command his corps. But when he comes to cope with Marshal Benedek ho will have a tried soldier to compete with, and Prussia will need all her re sourcos and her best generals to be successful. . ? ? FUN AT THE UNTVEBBITT or VIBOINIA.-The more solemn duties of commencement at the University are to have a humorous prelude to-day. On the steps of the rotunda, tho faculty deeming the proceedings too undignified for the public hall, four prizes are to be distributed; a pair of hand some boot? to the ugliest man, a pair of slippers to the most conceited man, a fashionable hat to the prettiest man. and a stick of candy three inches taller than himself and weighing ten and a half pounds to tho shortest man in the college Appropriate speeohes-several of them in verse -will be made by the presenter and recipient of each prize, and to enhance the ludiorous mature of the performance the strongest contrasts have been studied in the coromonios.

FATAL AFFBAY.-On Saturday evening last a difficulty occurred in this place botweon Goo. C. Sanders and John Hughes, whioh resulted in the killing of tho latter by the former. It seems that Hushes, under the influence of liquor, strnok Sanders with a crutch-whioh he bad to use in walking-whon Sanders retreated some dista? oe, drawing a pistol and threatening to kill bim if he approached. Hughes, disregarding the threat, advanced towards Sanders, who fired at him throe times, one ball entering the loft breast, producing his death on the following Monday morning.

We walk around the well ahaded grounda, and at laat, growing thiraty, and oatching the infec tion of the lager beer mania, we enter the great building where it is BO freely circula toa. On the first floor about fifteen hundred men, women and ohildren imbibing atone time flfteon hundred glaaaea of lager, and paying their particular re apeota to fifteen hundred stout slices of Schweitzer Kicao. The ladies have their mouths full of chuceo-the children, defying indigestion, have their mouths likewise full, whilst tho men drink beor, eat cheese, and smoko segare, apparently at one and the same time. On the aecoud floor, a large hall, open at the sides, about two thousand or twenty-five hundred cheese-eaters and boer driukora are hard at work. On the story above is a b alcony or piazza, also private apartments oheese and beer again. On the roof even, a large asBO mblago of ladies, gentlemen and babies vigorously attacking the Schweitzer and swallow ing cool draughts of lager. Twelve thousand Germa ns assemblod at a time, all imbibing, and yet not tho slightest disorder or disturbance, to mar the pleasure of the boer drinking or the in nocent enjoyment of the oheeso frolic. From fifty thousand to ono hundrod thousand glasses of lager are sold here every Sunday, and Judge CABDOZO'S health (and confusi?n to the Excise Board) has boen drunk in onongh beor to float a seventy-four man-of-war. S peaking of Judge CABDOZO, reminds me of a circumstanco that happened on the evening of the day on whioh ho rendered his decision. A large number of Germans were BO elated thereat, that they hold an informal mooting, at which much beer was drunk, many good speeches made, a quantity of bad aegara amoked, and, to wind np, the Judge's name waa proposed as a candidato for the next mayoralty. The Fenians had a grand demonstration on Sunday, near Jones' Wood. STEPHENS haranged the crowd, whose thirst for glory had been so suddenly quonohed by the interference of Uncle Sam, and whoso thirst for whiskey cock-tails had been increased by the restrictions imposed by the Excise Board-thoy, however, cheered STEPHENS' speech, and when thoa* throats grew parched and dry, thoy contented themselves, or rather did not content themselves, with soda-water and ginger pop.

I had almost omitted to mention that beside the great STEPBENS' meeting, held on Sunday, the Fenians bad another grand turn-out last night, where Head Centre ROBERTB held forth-this meeting was hold at Union Square, the principal stand was directly in front of the Maison Doree, and around it wero placed Chin?se lamps, which lit up the oager countenances of the Irish assemblage. I am not aware that any important result occurred from tho mooting, except that it worked well for the intereste of the Maison Doree, last night at least. The Maison Doree (or golden house) ia located in Fourteenth-street, near Broadway, and was in tended to be, par excellence, the aristocratic eat ing aaloon of New York. The place is, of course, fixed up in very elegant style, but tbero is very little taste exhibited in the ginger-bread gold daubinge on the front.
