DOMESTIC SUMMARY. The Memory ok Washington- invested in Wharf Lots. —We perceive that Mr. John A. Washington is investing the large fortune wrung from his countrywomen, as the price of Mount Vernon, in real estate in the city of Chicago. He has purchased two hundred and fifty feet river front,two hundred and fifty feet depth, on his own account, for twenty-four thousand dollars, and made other large investments in company with Mr. Wm. S. Turner, of Virginia. In Washington's case it has been wortli something to have an illustrious ancestor, and he has traded most shrewdly on the inheritance. We are not super stitious, but we, somehow, have a notion that the Almighty will not prosper this desecration. Savannah Republican. Boston Southern Steamships. —The Boston ians are raising money for steamships to south ern ports. They have obtained subscriptions amounting to one hundred and seveuty-five thou sand dollars. The shoe and leather trade sub scribed thirty thousand dollars. In Savannah twenty-five thousand dollars have been pledged, if that is made the terminus. Charleston is, however, the favorite port; two hundred thou sand dollars is the amount needed, and if Char leston raises it the steamships will run to that port. (From Correspondence of the Baltimore Sun.) Washington, June 24.—Mr. Dimdas, head of the contract office, Postoffice Department, is just now cutting down postal service in some of the South-western States; anil, as far as time will permit, the process will be carried out general ly, upon the principle of reduction established by acceptances of contracts for service at the re cent lettings for the Atlantic States, South of Maryland. The magnitude of this labor of re trenchment is seen in the fact that the status of most of the routes, in an aggregate of more than six thousand, has to be carefully considered, with a view to tho abolition of many, and the cutting down of others from daily to tri-weekly, or semi-weekly service, and from the latter to Weekly. In this way expenditures may be re trenched to the point that they would lie had what is called the “ star system ” been carried out in years past. The compensation required by railroad companies for carrying the mail, is regarded by the Department as exorbitant, but it has no power to fix the rates, for want of au thority of Congress. The State Legislatures that have essayed to aid the Department in this respect by legislation, have failed of their object, upon the plea of its being violative of chartered rights. Iu view of that irregularity in southern mail service during the winter months, which is so damaging to the vast monetary interests based upon trade in cotton, Ac., it long has been an object of prime importance with the contract office to specially provide, in engagements for transporting the mails between the great com mercial cities of the North and New Orleans, that there shall he US 'remission of firms to contrite* tors in ntfvs of delay, no matter what the circum stances. A provision of this sort is deemed the most effective to procure promptness, and hence the contractors on the various great sKithira and South-western routes have been notitiod privately, as they will also be publicly at an early day, that bids for service must be subject to the important provision before stated. As has been announced heretofore, a new line will compete for the contract, via the one soon to be established between Charleston, 8. C., and New Orleans, via a railroad route across the peninsula of Florida. As Senator Yulee is pre sident of that railroad company, it is of course assumed by some political partisans that there will be favoritism in the acceptance of the bid ; but unprejudiced and unimpassioned men an ticipate no action of the department based upon other considerations than thoso uniting expedi tion and promptness with economic expenditure. As Congress failed at its last session to appro priate for carrying the mails by steamer via the east coast of Florida to Havana, an offer will doubtless lie made by the steamboat and railroad company above referred to to carry it from Charleston across the peninsula of Florida to Cedar Key. and thence due South by Key West to Havana. Aga. The final examination of tho Senior class of Franklin College elected on Friday last, having proved highly satisfactory to the Board of Visi tors. The graduating class have received many compliments for their thorough scholarship, and they now go forth into the world under brilliant auspices. The honors were awarded on Saturday morning, as follows: Ist Honor and Valedictory—J. D. Pope, Walker county, Oa. 2d. Honor and Salutatory—G. A. Nunnallv, Walton county, Ga. Vermont. Douglas’ native State, has been the first to appoint delegates to the Charleston Con vention. The delegates from the State at large, were chosen the ICth instant —all Douglas men. Macon. —Mr. Barnett iuforms tho Telegraph that the census now taking will show a pop ulation of over eleven thousand in the city of Macon proper. This is an increase of about three thousand in the last five years. The steamer Persia, in her outward trip, came very near coming into collision at sea with the steamer America. A letter, written by a Phila delphian who had taken passage on her, says that the incident occurred in a dense fog, and the order “hard port - ’ was given in both vessels. They came within four or five feet of each other. For paddle wheel steamers to approach within four or five feet of each other before ei ther knew it, would imply a very bad watch on board. Washington, June 27.—There was early communication to-day between the President and those cabinet officers who are more particularly charged with what refers to foreigu relations. It is not doubted that the refusal of Nicaragua to comply with our demand is the cause of this action. However, it is stated by the intimate personal friends here of General Jaurez that he will set things right ujic a his arrival home. The accession of Palmerston to the Premiership of England is not regarded as favorable to our in terests in Central America. Washington, June 27.—From reliable sources it is stated that in the contemplated filli buster raid on Nicaragua, prominent parties sus tain Walker with men and money, who are to receive the benefits of the Transit Route in re turn. The expedition starts the middlo of Au gust, from Florida, in the ship Scottish Chief. The Government will arrest tho party, as usual. Capt. Nichols has been ordered to the com mand of the Constellation, (vice Wilson, sick,) flag ship of the African Squadron. Mr. Fay, our Minister to Switzerland, will soon be recalled. He has not been within the limits of the United States for thirty years. Washington, June 23.—The Secretary of the Treasury has nearly completed the list for the reduction of the number of officers in the New York Custom House. It is to take effect on the Ist of July. At least two hundred heads will drop into the basket on that memorable morning. Herndon Monument. —A handsome obelisk wtmm hem id wmmmm. to Lieut. Herndon, of Va., who was lost in the Central America, to be placed on the grounds of the Naval Academy at Annapolis, is nearly com pleted at Quincy, Mass. The shaft, thirteen feet long, four feet square at the base, tapers to one foot six inches at the top, and will rest upon a pedestal, four feet high, six feet square. Upon one side appears, in prominent raised letters, "the name “Herndon upon the other, “Septem ber 12th, 1857.” New Orleans, June 26.—The steamship Ten nessee is below, with Vera Cruz dates to June 22nd. A conducta. with five million dollars of specie that left the city of Mexico on the 28th of May, was seized by General Robles when about forty miles from Vera Cruz. A commissioner has been sent from Vera Cruz to negotiate with Robles, but had accom plished nothing. Minister McLane had sent Captain Faragut, of the Brooklyn, to demand the release of the American portion of the specie seized, amount ing to about two millions of dollars. Tho re sult of the application is unknown. The English fleet has beeu ordered to Vera Cruz. / War seemed inevitable between San Salvador and Honduras, but it was thought that Guate mala would interfere to preserve peace. Minister Lamar having sent to the government of Nicaragua copies of Gen. Cass’ dispatches, Ni caragua says that she, as a sovereign power, has the right to accept or reject a treaty, and cannot see any reason for considering it an insult to tne United States in acting as she did on the subject Sir Win. Gore Ousley's Musquito treaty will probably be accepted. Nicaragua justifies her conduct in the seizure of the boats on the San Juan river. New Orleans, June 28.—0 n the 11th of June, Mr. McLane addressed a remonstrance to Mira mon’s Minister of Foreign Affairs, in the name of President Buchanan, expressing his great indig nation at the withdrawal of the exequaturs from the American Consuls, and the murder of peace ful American citizens by Miramon's soldiers at Tacubaya. The massacre is characterised as a violation of national rights and treuty stipula tions, and Miramon is warned that it will be re membered, and redress demanded, and ultimate ly obtained, whatever may be the result of this remonstrance. — FOREIGN SUMMARY. The steamer Persia, from Liverpool on Satur day, 11th ult., arrived at New York on Wednes day last. We subjoin a copious summary of in teresting news: The Austrian account of the Battle of Magenta. — Telegram received from Lieutenant General Count Von Grunne, First Adjutant-General of Jlis Majesty and of the Army. — Verona, June 6, 10:40 P. M.—The battle fought in the neigh borhood of Magenta on tho 4th inst. was ex ceedingly fierce and bloody, and lasted until dusk. The attack of the enemy, which was made in the forenoon at Turbigo and Buffalora, was at first directed against two brigades of the Ist army corps, under Lieutenant General Count Clain. The brigades in question wero subse quently reinforced by three brigades of the 2d (Prince K. Lichtenstein’s) and Retsclmch’s divi sion of the 7th (Baron Zobel’s) army corps. In the afternoon the 2d (Prince E. Schwarzen berg’s) army corps eamo into action, and the bridge at Buffalora and the village of Magenta were sometimes in the enemy’s hands and some times in ours. In the morning of the sth our left wing was again engaged in the neighborhood of Magenta, but detailed reports on the subject are wanting. The enemy made no further progress (drang nicht weiter vor,) and our army took up a flank position (flank en stelhtng) between Abbiate Grasso and Binasco. Tho issue of the battle which was going on being doubtful, Count Gyulai gave orders that Milan should he com pletely evacuated. The sth, Count Stadion’s, and the Bth, Baron Von Benedek’s, Army Corps which were at a considerable distance from tho field of battle, were not engaged. Numerous French prisoners are in our hands. The loss on both sides is great; but exact of ficial returns on the subject are still wanting. According to the preliminary reports, Lieutenant General Beisohach and Major-Generals Von Burdina, Von Durflcld, and Von Lebzeltern are wounded, as are Colonel Hubatschek, Lieuten ant Colonel Stroratield, and Maj. Merkl, of the regiment “Hartmanu," Lieutenant-Colonel Hof fer and Major Walter of the regiment “King of the Belgians,” and Major Morans of the regi ment “Count Wimpffen.” Major Kronfield, of tho “King of Prussia Hussars,” was killed, and Lieutenant-Colonel Imbrisseuitsch and Major Haas, of the 2d Banat border regiment, are missing. Turin, Juno 10.—The Emperor and the King attended Mass yesterday in the cathedral of Milan, during which a Te Deum was sung.— Their Majesties subsequently traversed the streets on horseback, followed by a numerous staff. The Imperial Guard was drawn up on both sides of the way. and the gonerul enthusi asm was indescribable. The Duchess of Parma took her departure yes terday, leaving the government of the Duchy to the municipality, and releasing the troops from their oath of fidelity. Tho municipality has named a commission and despatched a deputa tion to tho Kiug of Sardinia, requesting him to take on himself the government of the country. The following is a summary of the proclama tion addressed by the King of Sardinia to the Lombards: “Victories have brought us to Milan, and your good wishes make my government the stronger. Our independence being secured, a regime , both liberal and durable, will be estab lished. Every one has made great sacrifices to support our army and our volunteers. Italians have given proofs of their worth, anil have gain ed the victory. The Emperor, our generous ally, the heir to the name and the genius of Napo leon, lias been willing to command bis he roic armj' to liberate Italy. Second on tho bat tle-field his magnanimous intentions, and show yourselves worthy of the destinies of new Italy after a century of suffering. 1 “Milan, Juno 9. “Victor Emmnuel.” Turin, June 9.—The retreat of the Austrians continues. The enemy has evacuated Laveno, abandoning their material of war, and taking shelter on board of vessels in Swiss waters. Vienna, June 10.—The official Austrian Cor respondence states that the Austrian army is continuing its retreat beyond the river Adda, and that its bead-quarters are at present at Cav attigozzi. before Cremona. Naples, June 9.—The English fleet, consist ing of the Marlborough, Euryalus, Brunswick, and Lapwing, lias just arrived. Naples is tran quil. The Hon. Henry Ellioit, the English Min ister Extraordinary, has arrived from Marseilles in the steam gunboat Coquette. The nsws of the victory of Magenta arrived at Naples on the 7th inst., and the French and Sardinian le- (rations wore illuminated in celebration of the event. The populace also manifested their sym pathy with the rejoicings of the allies by a pacific demonstration, which, however, was put down by the police. Turin, June B —lo p. m.—Bodies of Austrian troops being entrenched in Mareignano, Marshal Baragnay d'HiHters was sent by the Emperor to dislodge them, and took the village with but little loss on our side. Milan, June 9.—The Emperor to the Empress —“ We have not yet received any details of the brilliant affair at Mareignano. We only know that the Austrian corps d'armee under General Benedek has been repulsed, and that we have taken one thousand two hundred prisoners.” Berne, June 9. —The Federal Council has or dered the immediate fortifying of Luziensteig, and •also the frontiers of the Grisons bordering on Austria. Orders have likewise been issued by the Council to hasten the completion of the for tifications of St. Maurice, in the canton Valais. Three Austrian armed transports, having vessels in tow, were observed entering Swiss waters by the outposts of the Swiss troops under Major Latour. The transports were immediately stopped, and surrendered, and at 5 o’clock in the morning the Swiss commander of the Ra detzky brought them into Mogadino, where they will be kept by our troops alongside of five Sardinian steamers. Vienna, June 9. —The official Austrian cor resi>ondenc states that according to reliable in formation, Field Marshal Lieutenant Urban has successfully effected a retreat with his troops by Cassano. A report was current in Paris that Marshal Canrobert had died of his wounds; but it turns out that he was not wounded at all. Up to the present forty Austrian vessels have been taken by the French. The London Post's Paris correspondent says that more than four thousand of the prisoners taken by the allies are Italians. They say they took the earliest opportunity of giving them selves up.' They were always placed in the front, and threatened generally by the Croats in the rear if they did not fight well. Many have offered to join the allies, but have not yet been accepted. It is understood that such acts as the annexa tion of Lombardy are of a provisional character, and are intended to be in force only during the war. The Grand Duke of Tuscany had formally pro tested against the revolution. He states that the revolutionary party, at the instigation of Piedmont, wished him to declare war against Austria, but he preferred leaving Tuscany rather than adopt such a course. Turin, Friday, June 10.— The following is a Sardinian official bulletin: The Austrians have definitively evacuated Pavia, and are said to lie at Lodi. The allied armies are advancing. General Garibaldi occu pied Bergaina on tho morning of the Bth, and having learned that one thousand five hundred Austrians were coming from Brescia, sent a de tachment to meet them, which, thought incon siderable in number, nevertheless beat the ene my. Verona, Friday, June 10.—The following is an Austrian official bulletin: On the Bth of June, General Urban at Canonica and the Bth corps d'armee at Marignano were engaged in sanguinary fights. The enemy in greatly superior force appears to be advancing from Milan, and the Austrian army has, there- ; fore, passed the Addn in good order, and is nearing the re-inforeements in reserve. The courage of our troops is unbroken, nnJ th©y are longing for a decisive battle. Turin, Saturday, June 11.—Private letters from Milan respecting the battle of Marignana, state that five hundred Zouaves were put hors de combat. The Austrians, who were thirty thousand strong, suffered a loss of one thousand five hun dred killed and wounded, and one thousand two hundred prisoners. The battle lasted nine hours. Tho Times' correspondent at Vienna says that the official Austrian bulletin of the battle of Magenta had produced an indescribable effect in that capital. For a moment, says the corres pondent, tho public appears to be stunned. Military men are indignant that the finest army Austria ever possessed should have been en trusted to such a bungler as Count Gyulai ap pears to be. The steamer Bremen, from Southampton on the 14th June, arrived at New York on Sunday. Turin, June 11.—The Austrians have evacu ated Piacenza, after Imving destroyed the cita del and the other fortifications. They abandon to the allies a great quantity of provisions, can non and ammunition. Our troops entered the town, invited by tho municipality. Turin, June 12. —Last night the Austrians left Bologna, taking the direction of Modena. After their departure, a popular demonstration took place, expressing the sense of tho public in favor of the national cause. Vienna, Monday Evening.—Piacenza, Anco na, and Bologna, have been evacuated. Vienna. June 13.—The Austrianc orrespond ence, of this evening, contains the following: The Austrians, at the battle of Malegnano, yielded only to the decidedly superior force of the enemy, and retired unpursued, in perfect or der. Proclamation by theFrencii Emperor.— The following proclamation has been addressed by the Emperor Napoleon to the Lombards: Italians! The fortune of war having brought us into the capital of Lombardy, I am about to tell you why lam here. When Austria unjust ly attacked Piedmont, I resolved to support my ally, the King of Sardinia, the honor and the in terest of France making it a duty for me to do so. Your enemies, who are also mine, endea vored to diminish tho sympathy which was felt in Europe for your cause by making it to be be lieved that I only made war from personal am bition, or to aggrandize the territory of France. If there are men who do not comprehend their epoch, lam not of tho number. In the enlight ened state of public opinion, there is more gran deur to be acquired by the moral influence which is exercised than by fruitless conquests, and that moral influence I seek with pride in contribut ing to restore to freedom one of the finest parts of Europe. Your reception has already proved to me that you have understood me. Ido not come here with tho preconceived system of dis possessing the Sovereign, nor to impose my will on you. My army will only occupy itself with two things—to combat your enemies and main tain internal order. It will not throw any ob stacle in the way of the legitimate manifestation of your wishes. Providence sometimes favors nations as well as individuals, by giving it a sud den opportunity for greatness, but it is on con dition that it knows how to profit by it. Pro fit, then, by the fortune which is offered to you to obtain your independence. Fly to the stand ard of King Victor Emmanuel, who has already so nobly shown you the path of honor. Remem ber that, without discipline, there can be no army. Be to-day only soldiers, and to-moi-row you will lie the free citizens of a great country. Napoleon. Headquarters, Milan. Bth. We learn at this moment that the Austrians had evacuated Pavia and Lodi, and recrossed the Adda, destroying the bridges. Tiie steamship Nova Scotian has arrived with Liverpool dates to June 15th. After the retreat of the Austrians from Bo logna, the Cardinal Legato departed, and the municipality proclaimed Victor Emmanuel Dic tator. The Advance of tiie French. —The Morn ing Rost publishes the following despatch, dated Paris, last night: On the 12th the Emperor re moved his headquarters to Gorgonzlow. In the afternoon, His Majesty personally superintended the throwing of two bridges of boats over the Adda. Tlio operation, which presented serious difficulties, was perfectly effected. As soon as the bridges were completed the army began its movement, which was to be concluded yester day. After some heavy rains, the weather has again become fine, and the troops are in fine spirits. Before evacuating Piacenza the Austrians blew up the citadel and fortifications. Prince Metternich is dead. The Austrians had evacuated all the States of the Church, including Ferrara. Great Britain. —On the 10th ult., in the House of Commons, tiie debate on the amend ment to tho address was resumed by Mr. Milner Gibson, who spoke in opposition to the govern ment, and was followed on the same side by Mr. Sydney Herbert, G. C. Lewis, Lord John Rus sell, Ac. At 2 o’clock on Saturday morning, the House divided, wt en there appeared— For the amendment—(expressing* want of con fidence in the Ministry)— 823 Against it 810 Majority against Government 18 Mr. Gladstone and Messrs. Roebuck and Lind say voted with the government. Only sixteen members out of the six hundred and fifty-four were absent. It was supposed that Lord Derby and his col leagues would tender their resignation on the j day the Persia sailed, and that the Queen would send for Lord Palmerston. By the Steamship Bremen. —The Derby Min istry of-England had resigned. Lord Palmerston lias been appointed Premier, or first Lord of the Treasury. Lord John Russell has been selected as Foreign Secretary. . Lord Granville was first summoned by the Queen, but could not form a Ministry. The Queen was afterwards satisfied by Lord Gran ville that the only obstacle to a formation of a Ministry was the union of Lords Palmerston and Russell. She sent for Palmerston, and had an hour’s interview with him, and then immedi ately sent for Russell. The latter agreed to serve under Lord Palmerston, but none other. The London Times says Lords Palmerston and Russell are in favor of Italy, anil think that Austria ought to acknowledge her defeat. Tho following is from the Times, city article, June 13: The various statements in circulation that Prussia will soon abandon her position of neutrality, caused a relapse in the funds, al though they appear to rest on no definite or avowed authority, and are, perhaps, merely en couraged at Berlin, to meet the excitement in ( other German States. The following is from the Times' city article, June 14th : A belief that the new Ministry, in course offormatioubv Lord Palmerston, will inspire respect abroad, and without pretending to es tablish “confidential” relations with Napoleon, will conduct its intercourse with France in a consistent and dignified manner, has given in creased strength to the funds to-day. The French proclamation, issued at Milan, to the people of Lombardy, likewise had a favorable ef fect, although it is seen that such documents are merely intended to serve tho purposes of the moment. The following is a list of the British Cabinet, as brought by the steamship Arabia : first Lord of the Treasury —Viscount Palmer ston. Chancellor of the Exchequer —Hon. W. E. Gladstone. Secretary of State for the Forign Department —Lord John Russell. Secretary of State for the Home Department — Sir George Cornwall Lewis. Secretary of State for the Colonial Depart ment—the Duke of New Castle. Secretary of State for the War Department— Hon. Sidney Herbert. Secretary of India—Sir C. Wood. First Lord of the Admiralty—the Duke of Somerset. Lord Chancellor—Lord Campbell. Lord President of the Council —Earl Gran ville. Lord Privy Seal—Duke of Argvle. Postmaster General —Lord Elgin. President of the Board of Trade—Sir William Cobden. President of the Poor Law—Hon. J. M. Gib son. Sir. A. Coekburn succeeds Mr. Campbell as 'Chief Justice. Rome June 9.—A great demonstration was made at Rome on Monday last. “Long live the French government!” was shouted before the residence of the French Am bassador, tho Cassino and the residence of the Commandant. On Tuesday there was a general illumination. ■ ■—— —— Dead Letters and Stamps. —The post-office department, with a view of responding to a reso lution of Congfess, passed March 9,1859, asking information as to what legislation, if any, is ne cessary to reduce the number of dead letters, have prepared a circular calling the attention of postmasters to the subject. Want of proper di rection to letters, and the failure on the part of persons to whom letters arc addressed to call for them account for the major portion of letters which arc transmitted to the dead-letter office: but the department, fearful lest some neglect on the part of efficials charged with tiie delivery may add to the number of letters remaining on hand, direct postmasters to be especially vigi lant that no letter escape delivery for the want of the most minute attention. The practice of separating the advertised letters from those in the general delivery, and requiring a special in quiry to be made for them, is diseouutenanced. The necessities of the public are deemed of far more importance than the convenience of officers appointed to serve the public, and no labor re quired to insure a full and sure delivery is to be deemed unnecessary. The department, also, in vite suggestions from postmasters in relation to the disposal of dead letters, as well as to their reduction. In the same circular postmasters are informed that hereafter packages con taining stamps and stamped envelopes will be registered at New York or Philadelphia, and sent cither direct, or via the distributing office from which the receiving post-office usually re ceives its mails, from those places. No registra tion fee attaches to such packages. Washington Constitution. Are You Kind to Your Mother?—Who guarded you in health, and comforted you when ill ?
