EUROPEAN NEWS. The steamer Africa arrived at New York on Tuesday with Liverpool dates to the r 5ih July. The Telegraphic reporters fcirnish the subjoined summary of her iiews : TEOGRESS OF THE WAR It is now confirmed that the Russians have received counter orders, and will not juit Wallachia. The Austrians have, for the present, en tirely relinquished the intention peaceably to occupy the principalities. No new facts have been made public as io the progress of the Prussian Austrian negotiations. Il is believer! (hat all the smaller German Suites will adhere to the A-ustro-Prussmn cenvention. The feeling iu England with respect to these new com plications is decidedly uneasy. There has been considerable fighting on the Danube. The Turk3, under Umer Pacha personally, after severe fighting, have captured the Danube islands and the city of Giurgevo. which they occupy. It is clear that the Turks have now assumed the offensive, and, with the reserve of An glo French, the first division of which is now at Rulschuck, will probably risk a pitched battle. Gro'.schakoff, with 30,000 troops, is ad vancing by forced marches to dispossess them of Giurgevo. The Black Sea fleet, when last seen, was proceeding from Odessa in the direction f 4 iScbastopol. Napier's fleet, with the chol era on board, had gone to nnchor in Born ttrsund Bay. Rescind Pashit has resumed the Turkish Almistry of Foreign Affairs. The ex-.Ministry of Greece are indicted for a malversion of the public moneys to oter the recent insurrection The cholera continues its ravages at St. Petersburgh, and the garrison of Cronstadt was also suffering from its ravages. On the 1st of July 5S0 casrs were reported in St. Petersburg !. The cholera was also prevailing to an al inning extent at Marseilles, no less than 100 deaths having occurred in one dy. sr-Aix. The news from Spain is very imperfect. The insurgents, however, seem to main tun themselves under Generals Srrvano, O'Donnell, and Dulce. They number ;,000, and are going towards Andalusia. Some movements favoring ihern hae oc curred in Valencia. MISCELLANY. T NOBLE CONDUCT AT SEA. The new screw steamer Clyde arrivod at Ghsgow on Saturday night, on hr first voyage from New Yorx, which she left on the 23rd nit., having made the passage in 14 1-2 days. When she had been about two days out from New York, the crew und passengers wore alarmed by the cry of "a man overboard," while the vessel was under full headway, both from her steam power and sails. It wa.? found that Air. David Walker, the second steward, who had for some days previous! v exhibited ex traordinary dnlness of spirits, had thrown himself into the broad and turbulent Atlan tic. Thomas Eatimore, one of the em ployees on board the ship, promptly leaped overboard, and succeeded in laying hold of the drowning man, whom he kept from sinking for a space of twent3' minut;s or half an hour, at the end of which time both were taken into one of the vessel's life-boats. Mr. Walker exhibited some faint signs of life, but by the time he. was taken on board the ship be was pvtsi re covery. The passengers subsequently he'. a meeting, and testified their sense of the noble conduct of Latimore by presenting hirn with a purse of eight sovereigns and and a silver medal. DARING OUTRAGE & ROBBERY. On the night of the 18th instant, in Ross county, .Ohio, three burglars forced their way into the dwelling house of John Aber nathy, a rich old gentleman, eighty-one years of age, and after gagging and bind ing him hand and foot in his bed, and se curing the silence of his wife and a young widow lady named Strauser, who lived with them, by threats of instant death in case they raised the alarm, they proceed ed to give the house a thorough search. Airs. S. was robbed of $100, and Mr A. of between 80,000 and 87,000. A SAFE OFFER. An English paper says the following is a copy of a placard which was posted up in the viciftiy of Liverpool: '""The person who left two of his toes and the heel of an old boot in a steel trap in AnfieKl Plantation on Sunday evening hist, may have the same returned on ap plication to the garilener at the cottage." The lost property had not been called for at the last accounts-. NAVAL. The Navy Department is shipping boys for the United States razee Independence, now fitting at the Brooklyn Navy Yard for the Pacific. About forty of the juve niles, whose ages vary from fourteen to seventeen years, are already on board of the receiving 6hip North Carolina. SINGULAR PROCE E DING. Early this morning, on the doors of near .. ly nil ibe houses and stores of Chelsea was found pasted a piece of paper, about 5 in-, ches square, having upon it a white cross upon a black groan) It is supposed to be a notice of the tueetmg of some Jesuit Society.; Traveller. "ViU jrou. take the lire of Pierce orScott this morning, Madam V said a newsboy to ur .good Aunt, Bets jr. "No, my Iad,n-she replied Htiey fcaaj live o the ends of their days for me Vv nolhin'-agin 'em." "7Vi f A MAMMOTH SHIP, . ..' The ship Janaes Bains, of 3,200 tons, r ,n4 savilo b tbelargest ship in the world, vat recently launched from ther ship 'yard AFFAIRS IN PERU. The Boston Journal learns from late Li ma papers that Peruvian politics, up to the 25th June, remained as unsettled as ever. It was supposed, however, that a decisive engagement would soon ocur between Castilla, the rebel, and Echeniqne. Opin ions varied as to the final result of the war. The country was overrun by bands of robbers and cu-t-tkroats-, who. taking ad van tage of the distarbeJ sfitte of affairs, pillag ed and murdered by the wholesale. On the lOih of June a party of about fifty of these men, called 'Mountaineers,' attacked and murdered, in cold blood, Senor Jose Alejo Torelas, the owner of a' hacienda about fourteen leagues from Lima. Oi the 1 1th they pillaged the estate of Chaclaiayo, about eight leagues from the city, carry ing off all the money and valuables thej conld find and killing three men. On the Nth a party of them attacked the hacien da of San Pedro, eight leagues from the city-, defeated a body of soldiers who were dispatched against them, killing their lead er, and finally, alter beating several per sons nearly to dea'h, made good their re treat, cn-rying- with thein a large amount of valuable property. The city of Lima was again thronged with gold-seeking Australians, of whom about two hundred arrived in the latter pail of June. Many wi re in poor health and destitute of money. The gold excite ment had died away in a great measure, and those who occasionally returned from the interior almost invariably came with empty pockets and broken heal'h. MaUrg I-ovc to the Wioni? I'ersoa. A Cincinnati paper is responsible for the following : A young gentleman who hail beer pay ing his addresses in propria persona to a young lady in this ci'y, left a few months ago and went down the river on business. A correspondence was immediately opened between the enamoured pair, and exchang ing several letters tae young lady was mortified to find that, her letters were un answend, and consequently she ceased writing. But the real secret of her receiv ing nj letters was ihe fact that another young lady of the same name, supposing tlfv were intended for her, took them from the I'ot Office n4 opeTeira corresponden ce with her proxy lover. Some two months passed away, when the 3-0, mg man wound up by a direct proposal and insisted on an immediate answer, averring at the same time that he thought live tone of her letters verv diff -rent from those received when he first left Cincinnati, and upbraided his fan- love with inconstancy. This last epistle was too m'tch for our romantic incognito, and being conscience smitten for the part she had been acting, and fully persuade. 1 that some other lady had been pining for the young man she was wooing, sought her cmt, arwl (eUvreiY ir e letups op to their rightful owner. The matter wna speeditly arranged, and the real lovers have s:nce become united in the bands of wedlock. A YOUNG MAN These three words are suggestive of thought a young man. How much of strength, what beaming eyes, what high resolves, and proud starlings for fame! What yearnings to be rich ! What hopes of happiness! What mines of gold ! What height of greatness ! What excess of joy, these three little words conjure before the mind ! A young man ! Does he mean to be drunken? To be poor? To be dis honored ? To have the children laugh anil point the finger at him? To strike down the defenceless woman ? To deform inno cent children 2 To turn home into worse than a howling desert? Oh ! assuredly not. Nor docs he think so, while he leans back in the gorgeous saloon, and amid flashing lights and the bewilderment of beauty, aided by every artifice, takes to his heart, to his soul hugging il as the mis er hugs his treasure the fiend that deso lates. Well, time has passed swiftly, the brand is burned out; it is char red and blackened, the star fallen from, the heaven of home. He bickers, he quarrels, he. laughs with, eilly leering, and kicks at the harmless chairs and tables He chatters nonsense and thinks it wit. He maltreats his wife and children, and curses them, himself, ami all the world. Alas poor drunkard ! Wherever you behold him, you see 'some thing that should have been a man !' LIBERAL CONTRIBUTION. We are pleased to learn from the very efficient agent, A. C. Morton, Esq , that our towsman, J. T. Soulhall, Esq , proprie tor of Jarratt's Hotel, has contributed $50 to the Union Agricultural Society of Vir ginia and Norih Carolina. Mr. S. has ever manifested a deep interest in the cause of agriculture not in words alone, but in deeds, which speak much louder. Richmond Dispatch. The Day after twenty rogues had es caped from jail out west, the editor of the village paper had an eloqu-erit article on the morals of the place not r prisoner within the walls of her jails. This may be called turning things to account. AN ODD WATCHMAN. The Cincinnati Gazette tells us that an Irishman, undoubtedly crazy, may be daily seen walkin-g arownd the Cathedral, in that city, with a loaded cane, belt and sword, and a feather in bisjiat. He claims to be a special watchraan from God to guard the cathedral an4 th Bishop's pal ace from being attacked by the- heretic Protestants. THE ELOQUENCE OF DISTRESS. A Western editor appeals in the follow ing eloquent language to the sympathies of his delinquent subscrfbers : 'We cannot help thinking how much easier an editor's life might be ma Je if his generous patrons could only bear hi ; better-half scraping the bottom of the- four barrels.

Hav ing witnessed tho must beneficijl effects from the use of yo"r Sarsnparilla, it gives me pleasure to send vol the following statement in regard to my son. In the spring of 1348 ho took a severe cold, and after eight weeks of severe suffering the disease-settled in his loft l'-g and foot, which soon swelled to the utmost. The swelling was lanced bv his physician, and discharged most profusely; after that no less than elevt n ulcers furmid on the leg and foot at on" time. Weliad fivedifferent Phy sicians, but none relieved him much ; and the last winter found him so emaciated and low that he was unable to leave hU c. I, suffei ing the most excrucia ting pain. During this ti:e the bone had become so much affected that piece alter piece came out, of which he has now more than twenty-five preserved in a bottle, aryig from one ha lo owe od a half inches in length.

DR.SWAYNE: Dear Sir Believing it a duty 1 owe to the public, and in jnstioo to you, 1 have thought proper to make known one of the most extraordinary cutis, in my own case, that has ever been truly recoreled. In me month of October last, 1 was afflicted with a severe gather ing in tny breast, Which formed a large abscess-, and also communicated to my lungs and very much afflicted them, and discharged large "quan tities of corruption, external and internal. My breath could also pass through my lungs and out through the cavity of my breast with apparent ease, attended with a violent cough day and night, loss of appetite, and cstreme debility, sothai my physicians though l my case extremely hopeless and beyond ihe power of medicine. I remained in this wretched condition for a lone time, until I was wasted to a mere skeletejn, and there fcemcd lo be no hope for me, but, having read in the pub lic papers of the many wonderful cures performed hy your COMPOUND SVRUP OF WILD Cll ERRY, 1 immediately sent to Rail i more for five bottles and eomttwrrced its use, and, to my great satisfaction and that of nvy anxious family, t he abscess or opening in my lungs began to heal, and the cough subsided, and on using ten bottles I was restored to perfect health. I feel very grate ful, nnd firmly believe tftat in your medicine, un der tho blessings of Divine Providence, I am in debted for this great change, and am happy to say that 1 am now enjoying a? good health as 1' ever have.
