It is difficult to disabuse the mind from the belief that Austria had calculated upon receiving physical aid from several of these Powers; and that resting herself as sured of their assistance, she was in conse quence compelled to dictate the terms on which she was alone willing to enter in the lately proposed Congress. The military force that will most probably be called into actiou is far greater than is generally credited. The number of men of alt arms in tlie Prussiau service, including about 32,000 of tbe military train, when placed on a war footing, stands, on paper, at 653,000; arm this number, by the addition of 95,5(K) of the second levy' of the land- wehr, is increased to 748,500.

More Rejection or the Pbesisent’s Friends by the Senate.—The Senate, in ex ecutive session on Wednesday, rejected all of tbe nominations recently made by the President in tbe State of Tennessee for Col lectors and Assessors of Internal Revenue.

The State Corn roa the Soldiers and the Destitute Poor —We learu that up to this lime ihe Stale's supplies of corn from purcliaaea made in St. Louis, Lave retched Chattanooga quite slowly, only about 45,000 bushels having bven received. Nevertheless, CoL P- Tbweatt, the State’s distributing agent, by judiciously dividing out and ap- portioniug tb< corn received at that point, bas been enabled, with remarkable prompti tude, to ship one month's supply to every county in the State that has reported benfl- ciaries. We learu, also, that it waa Col. Tbweatt s hope before, or by this time, to ship two months* additional supply to each county in the State, but the corn has reached Cbattaoooga so slowly that he fears now to ship more than one months supply, as bis second installment, lest be may not round in time for tbe following monthly sap- ply. He has hopes, however, that tbe corn will hereafter be received more freely at °V»u<inooga from the west, and, if so, he will ship tailor quantities at one time to the several counties. Colonel Tbweatt ia net respo^ble it is due to him to say. tor the purchase «r th. corn in any way. It is purchased by the State’s agent at St. Louis, shipped to him at Chattanooga, and those Interested in its dis- 1 tribution may feel perfectly satisfied that if: they do not get their pupplies as fast as they i may need them, it will not be his fault, as ; we learn the corn is not detained at Chatta- 1 nooga one day, but is immediately forwarded to the counties for tbeir suffering poor.

N. Cardozo, now eighty yean of age has written a book of one hundred pages, containing reminiscences of the an cient city of Charleston. This he proposes to publish by subscription St fifty cents per ipy- These reminiscences of the early settlement, of Charleston by English csyajjer* French Huguenots and a very adyentorojii people ' from the Spanish West Indies, are most iu- taeestmg, and no one can-relate-them- more Accurately nor more vividly than Mr. Cardo zo. Many we have heard from .his own elo quent lips, and they are among the most curious we have ever heard. Mr. Cardoso may be called the Nestor of the American press, and has long been and is now oor best authority on financial questions, which the last forty years he has discussed very ex tensively, as well as many other questions of tire highest public interest. We can scarcely conceive more interesting reminis cences than Mr. Cardozo relates ofbCharles- ton, except it be those ot onr own city and State, to Louisianians. Charleston has of late years become a historic city, and everything connected with its past or present condition is of an interest to be eagerly sought for.—New Orleans Picayune. putahmeat ...S 1)ld you-bear him use this expression, I iSTinterval tbe jury returned their verdict to ! « hid undorgeufa I Intend to walk into Canada,” or anything ; tbe Clerk and dispersed.

This order would take effect immediately bat for tbe fact the box reals are paid ia advance, and it waa decided better to 1st them run an till the close of the quarter. This is a move in the right direc tion, and the credit of it is In a great measure due to tbe efforts of the Mayor, who for months labored hard to break up this fiefari- ona business. As early as February last tbe Mayor requested tbe post office officials “to at least refuse these operators tbe facility of boxes in tbe post office.' From indications it will be seen that their labors bav%oot been in vain, and, for a time, at least, these peats of society will be debarred of some ot the. privileges accorded them by tbe Government for carrying on their operation*. —Augusta Constitutionalist.
