THE ALLIANOE BETWEEN PBU89IA AND ITALY.
[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

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. Thus a giant of

the list of the shortest. Tho presentation epooohos

[FROM O0B OWN CORRESPONDENT.]
NEW YORK, Juno 26_Superintendent KENNEDY,
of tho polico forco, having decided that tho in

very edifying German conversation. The con
ductor calla for his fare; I pay him six cents, aud
your readers rido froe. At Fifty-ninth etroet wo
change care, and paying bat five conts this
ti mo, rido np to the end oj the Central Park, or
One Hundred and Tenth Btreet. A long and
boautiful walk leada us to tho garden, and hero
wo bohold thousands of Germans assombled.
Gorman gontleraen indulging in innocent little
recreations-shooting at targets-taking their lit
tle ones to rido OB the circular platform, on the
woodon horses, in tho pretty little wooden cars
taking their vrows to swing-and all enjoying,
th emselvos in the moat orderly and innocont
manner.
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.
The best engravings of the Confederate leaders
that I have ever seen are now being publishod by
Messrs. JULIUS TAYLOR S? Co. They are the finest
lined mezzotint steel engravings. The plate fot
that of General LEE cost $750. Tho list so far in
cludes JEFFERSON DAVIS, Generals LEE, JOHNSTON
and Stonewall JACKSON. WADE HAMPTON'S will ap

The report of the Committee appointed to con
sider tho propriety of bridging Broadway at Ful
ton-Btreet, haB been handod in. The Committee
reports favorably-the Mayor haa affixed his Sig
natare, and the work will soon be a fail accompli.
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. The creme de la creme do,
most undoubtedly, patronize the Maison; Lot it
hae|aot succeeded even in fairly rivalling' DKL
MONICO'B.
Only four doaths from cholera have he?n re
ported In the past week. No now oases were re

and disgrace.
The Executive Committee of tho Union War
