Liverroos,, Savurday, June 19—The Cunard pany have nearly completed thoir arrange- ments for runniog the new line of first class line of steamebips to Australia via Chagres and Panama, in connection with their mail steamers from Liver- to New York . “ The first firm who announced their dotermination to create a direct stosm oommunication between Liverpool and Australa, were Messrs.

With no steamships in opoosition, their peopored line uld no doubt have been a good speculation to ves, while it would bave been of considerablo accommodation to persons withing for tho advan- tages of @ rapid communication with the Australian ‘ports; but with larger ateamehips in competition, ‘pt comparativly amall rates of passage, the mutter geeumed a different aspect.

Opposite the Great Float there is aa open space, which is used as a promenade. While looking at a group, on Friday, we perceived a stout, healthy looking, well-clad Sootchinan, with a smiling young wifo, in reapeotable attire, and an aged fithor, whose wrinkled brow and gray hair seemed ill- suited to the harassing voyage before him.

Austria, AFFAIRS IN HUNGARY—VISIT OF THE EMPRROR— AMLRICAN STEAMBOATS ON THE DANUBK—KEFROT O¥ THE GREAT KYHILITION—NRW VOUALIST [Vienne letter, June 16th, in the London Timea.] It may appear somewhat singular that so few do- tails of any interest aro given in our papers con- cerning the Emporor’s tour in Hungary, but it mast not be forgotten that no correspondent can venture to communicate news which could by any possibil- ity give umbrage to the authorities. A very gou- oral idea prevatls that the sovoreign will not revura to Vienna before the 10th of August, and this has found an echo in papers which ought to be better informed on tho subject; it is highly probable that ho may be back ina week or ten days, as [ learn that a spooial train with the so-called **suloon- carriage,” is to kopt in readiness for bim at Prossburg. It does not admit of a coubt that the monarch intends visiting the whole of Hungury in the course of the summer, a3 preparations for his reception are now boing made 98 well in the southern as in the northorn districts Everything haa hitherto gone on smoothly enough, though it has been remarked in some purts of tho country that the black yellow flag is much less mane to the people than the national tricolour. As tho projected 2wanziger distribution did not take place, it is probable that tho spontaneous enthu- siasm rendered it unnecessary 3 &. correction to the statement madoin ono of my recont letters it may be remarked that tho national costume now and then worn by the Emperor since he has been iu Hungary is that of a colonel of the first regiment of hussars, which bears hianamo On Thureday be will be in Arad, and on Friday, after visiting Vilagos, he gocs by way of Sirroand, Kis-Jeno, and Szalonta, to Gross waidein, which during the revolution was one of the great hot-beds of Magyariam. It is not difficult to see that, sooner or later, seri- ous misunderstanding will arise between the arny and the gens-d’ermerie. The common soldiors have long envied the gens-d’arme, because the latter are far better paid and clothed, but now the feel- ing is fast eprracio among the officers, who affect to treat their hybrid comrades as more police agents, which reputation they have long enjoyed among the peoplo, in whose eyes they have become odious by thoir domineering behaviour and needloss vio- leveo. Somo military men of very high standing do not seruple to say that the gens-d’armerie corp: has done, and continues to do, spy and informer service, instead of attending to its legitimate duty, which fs to render assistance to tho civil power in case of need. A friand, who ig well ablo to give a correct opinion on tho eubject, assures me that when the state of sicgo is abolished bere, the difference will be so trifling as to be imperceptible.

What are the Rights of Prussia to Neuf- 4 chatei? {¥om the London Herald (gov't organ), June 15 ] ‘The peace of Eurepe, the oquilibrium of tho dif- foront states, the balance of power, and, to use a Germanism very prevalent on the Continent, ‘the atate system” of tho principal powers, all reposo on the faith of treaties. In an international sense tre are as important to nations in general, as mupicipal, criminal, or commercial laws to any par- ticular community or individual state. Without some international comity—without some part or understanding between kingdows, thore must arise perpetus! bickerings and misunder- standings :—the strong would sometimes seck to op- presé the feeble—tbe ambitious to circumvent or overbear his noighbor. Hence tho necessity of a system of public law, depending upon the provis- ione of treaties, conventions, and autheutic acts, to which the representatives of kingdems set their seals. Of late years weare awnre it has been thy fashion to deprec'ate diplomatists and negotiators, whether military or civil; but if the history of Hu- rope be opened fiom tho treaties of Wostpbalia or of Utretebt to the present time, and be carefully examined by the student of history, it will then be seen how much of the peace which the world hay enjoyed for three centuries has been owing to the labors of ambassadors, diplomatists, and nugotia- tors, ond to the growing feeling propagated by ju- tists of tho inviolability of trenties. So long as these great public ucts are inviclably observed by the eontraciing parties, we bhuve & gusrantee that peace will be maintained, and av as- surance that none of the great powers seek ia acy wise to alter or distarb the settlement of Barope During the stormiest portions of the years 1848 and 1649, when mony crude theories wore propaga ted hy our cotemporuries. this journal ever coutend- ed fur the strict and faithful observance of treaties; and now that a healthier and calmer tone pervades a great pertion of Evrope, we may be permitted to again reour to the language we held in 1343 and 1349, more especially when wo find that langnage in nerfect harmeny with the acts of the ministry with- in the last few days. Tho very las! couforence held at the foreign office, to which Lord Malmesbury invited the ambassadors of the four great continental powers, had referonce to the strict and faithful obecrvance of treaties; and it is most eatiefuctory to find that on this head the representatives of France, Russia, and Austria are thor ought, d with the Prussian Envoy and hee Majesty's Dri pal Seoretary of State for Foreign Afivirs. The genornl reader is perfectly well aware that ever since the French revolution of 1830 Switzer land has been more or Sees in a state of political or rather politico-religious perturbation. Ip 1831 part of the population of New lehate! rose with a view to unite that principality to the Swiss Confederation. Again, in 1848, ufter the French revolution of February, the principality of Nenfebatel was in- voded by bands of Vandois, from the neighboring canton of Voud, who ped the Prussian fuvc- tionaries, and dirsever ties which united the | principlity to the House of Heber toler, although | these ties had, with little intermission, subsisted | for neatly a century and a half | It may be asked, how the right of Prassta acerned of Neufchatel or in the Federal Counoil, because it a9 pleases them, or beoause it seems for their advantage, to set aside and trample undor foot an importan’. portion of the public law of Europs—a portion in- volving the rights of an independont sovereign, whoro nutbority the Federal Council would not morely oust, but usurp to their own profit, and without an equivalent. Tho protocol of the conference held in London is a mere assertion of an historical and treaty right legally deduced, a right set forth simply and clearly, without ostentation or parade, much less menace. A dooument of this kind is a solemn recognition and a deliberate and parsionloss judgment; and it well became Sngland to take a Yeading part in what we way call a judicial intornutioual award. That auoh an award may bo followed by immodiate submission on the part of the Federal Council we are sanguine enough to wish, if not to do) The artiolos of the treaty of Vienna are equally binding on Switzer- land as on Englund, France, Austria, and Russia ; and it is the intorest, as well us the duty of the Fedoral.Ceuncil, to recoguise in Neufthatel those af 10 which the treaty of Vienna catablished. With what equity can Switzerland enjoy the benefit de- yived from her neutrality in one portion of the treaty, if in another portion she is disposed unjustly to violate its provisions to the detriment of another independent power? Enjoying tho benefit of the instrument, sho must accept the burden, though, in truth, it is neither oppressive vor heavy. The sway and sovereignty of Prussia in Neufchatel is easy and unoppreesive, for years and years ago the late King accorded a constitution. In nothing is tho confor- ence held at the Foreign Office more important than in its unanimity. Somoemonths ago sopurate action was apprehended on tbe part ot France and Austria; whereas now these powers harmoniously coucur with their co-signaterios, if we may coin suth a word, to meet the Mrench epithet costgnataircs. Theatrical Statistics of France. An immense volume of statistics, eullected by order of the Chamber of Commerce by a spe cial commission, under the superintendence of M. Horace Say, with a view to ascertain the state of trade and manufactures in the metro- polis, furnishee—though it seems a strange place to look for such information—some curious de- tails respecting the state of theatricals, past and present, in France. The Saeman charged witb this part of the inquiry, M N. Rondot, has not, like his colleagues, confined his researches to Paris, but extended them to the whole of the country. The bumbor of theatres in tho 86 departmontsis set down at 361,36 out of thet number belongifg to the small department of the Seine. The provincia) boards do not appear well supplied with performers. 40 itinerant companies doing duty for no les: than 280 theatres, 45 only being provided with stationary troupes. Three departments have no theatre what ever, all three being gjtuated in the south—Lozire. Alpos, nnd Ardéche. M. Bondot coucludes his genoral statistics by stating that the number of actors and actresses in France is variously ostimated at fruin 3,000 to 8,000. Wo are then shown the pro ressive inorease of theatres in Paris. Under Louis III. there was only one theatre in the capital, for M. Rordot does not reckon as such the booths of Gros Réné and Gauticr-Gurguille; under Louis XIV. they increused to five; there were six under Louis XV., and under his ill-fated successor 10 theatres wore in full play, In 1791, all monopolies having been abolished, 51 theatres sprang up all at once; but by the year 1507 we find them decreased to%4 At this period privileges were re-established, and in the following year only nine were in exist ence. Paris enjoyed 10 theatres from 1310 to 1814, 1) from 1814 to 1819, 14 from 1849 to 1830, 16 in 1831, 21 in 1882, 23 in 1846, 25 in 1849, and 23 io 1851. These 23 theatros contain about 34,000 Waces, and the prerege number of spectators every night is calculated at 20,000. Besides theatres there ure 145 places of amusement open in the capital and ita vicinity, principally during the summer season— public balla, such as Malfille’s, café coocerta, Guin- guottes, &e ; thoso establishments aro frequented by, itis catimated, 24.000 persons per diom, thus carrying tho number of pleasure seekers in Paris to 44,000 daily. Not the least interesting part of those statistics is that which refers to the receipts of the metropolitan theatres, which huve undergone many variations, as may be seen from the following ac- count:— From 1607 to 1811 their average wus noarly 5,000,000f ; from 1822 to 1826 nearly 7.£00,000f.; from 1837 to 1841 they averaged moro than 9,000,000£ ; from 1842 Lo 1946 move than 10,000,800 ; and in 1847 they rose to 11,000,000f. Here M. Ron- dot discontinues his own figures, aud quotes LONG vernment returns, which stand thu 1543, 6,747,408f.; 1849, 7,775,570F.; 1850, 9,959,735 ; As51, 10,460,000f. M. Rondot concludes his return by # statemont of the number of the perscmnel employed in the Puris tncatres, front which it appears, commencing at the lower and of the seale, that there are upwards of 400 b x-keep- ers, male and female; and 750 emplayés, clorka, &0., in the administrations, whowe aggregate salaries amount to 740.000f The drowma oarpenters, seer eshifters, &c , ere more than 600 strorg, and their averzge suluries umount to 600,000f. The nomber of muvicians in the various o chestras ix rd their sggregate income is 600,850f. We now come to the performers, of whom, xcoording to M Roudot, there are 1, men avd 891 women. Of these 793 are artistes, aud the remainder choria- tors and figurantes. The emoluments of this nu- merous personnel average per annum, 3 5i4.990F At the time the statement was drawn up, 1851, the bighest salaries wors 4,{00f., and the lowest 25f per month— startling difference. Formerly, in Vis, for instance, the first singer at ghe (rand Opera only received 1,500f. per annum; in 1783, Madame St. Huberti’s salary was ovly 4.000f a- year; and the celebrated danseuse, Mdllo.

We have made inquiry tate this matter sud learn, not only that Mr Kennedy presented all his vouchers wheo asked for them, but that nome of them have heen dlial- lowed | Mr. Kennedy was ulvo asked for an explanation, which be promptly furnished We learn still further, that when @ question arog re- Specting Mr Konnedy’s compenoution. ho st once re- fused reociving avy svlury— not ovly that of $2.500, but Unt Of $3,000 ala ough tendered to hin—uatil the waiter should be decided beyond all controversy. ‘bes being the facts, we think it strange that any one could thus attewpt to injure the obaracter of a pub- lic officer to yratify bis own private griefy or from »ny other motive, and we cannot but deem it equally strange that the Committee of Ways aud Means should permit such use to be made of papers placed in their posession for their own calm and dispassionate examination, ‘The writer punks of this av a matter which his just originated: but the truth ia, that it was diecussed mouths ego by thoce concerned. since which timo it has rusted. There are some persons who imagine that an argument is strengthoned by the use of abusive cpithets, and the writer of tho above article appears to be of that claas. As wo have nothing to do with him, wo do not choose to be diverted from the real issuo by his want of good mannors, and shall, thore- fore, only reply to that portion whioh denies the uth of the statement in the Rann, to which he refers. In the first place it is necessary to remark, that the statement of tho difficulty between Mr Stuart and the First Comptroller, ou uecount of Mr. Ken- nedy’s claim, was obtained entirely from official documents, and merely xave tho substance of those documents. It was not stated that Koonedy * ro- ceived higher compensation than the law au- thorizes;”” but it was stated that he claimed highor compensation, and that Mr. Whittlesey: refused to allow it. And also that Mr. Whittlesey, in his deci- sion disallowing it, expresses the conviction that Mr. Stuart must have been misinformed of the facts, orbe would never have countenanoed Konnody in demanding the compensation as secrotary of a board which bad ceased to exist, before Kennody’s appointmont a6 Superintending Clork of tho Consus office. The ae erare says that Mr. Kennody was askod for an explanation, which he promptly furnished ‘The truth of tho matter ia this: Aftor Mr Whittlo- sey had decided against his claim, he called upon the Comptroller and desired to make an argumout He was told to do so in writing Some days aftor- wards, he left a statement at tho Comptroller's office, without signature. Thoreupon the Comptrol. ler looked into the matter again, and made a second decision, still stronger than the first, against Ken- nedy. It was principally from this second decision that we compiled our statement; and it spoaks of Kennedy’s conduct in making out his accounts, for five mouths after his appointment, at tho rate of 2,500, and thon suddenly putting in a claim for a larger amount, on the ground of his atill being So- cetary of the defunct Census Beard, in terms not the most complimentary. _Tho third paragraph in tho article, states that Kennedy ** at once refused any salary, either $2,500 or $2,060, also, although tondcred to him, until the matter thould be decided boyond all controvorsy.” A3 the matter is not yet decided, having beon ro- ferred to the Committco on Ways aud Mouns, if his refusal still holds out, he has not received auy mo- ney fora good while But that he was tendered $5,000 a yeur, in dofiaure of the Comptroller's de cision, is simply net true. No person but the dia- bureing igent of the cenaus fund, Mr. Williamson, hora right to pay him his galary, and if he has tendered him more than the Comptrollor has desided the law allows him, he offered to pay it out of bis own pocket—a_ very probablo story. Williameoa cannot settle his accounts unless the Comptroller passes them, and that officer has distinetly refused to allow Kennedy $3,000 a year, up to this very hour, and will coxti- nue to do so, until the law is alterod With regard to the epee of $1,750 out of the contingent fund, which Williamson madg to Ken- nedy for his European tour, the Comptroller refuses to allow it, as having been paid without authority of law, and will net recognize any vouchors as satisine- tory, which the law did not contemplate. ‘The Tvlegreph says that the difficulty took place months ago, and is not a recent occurrence. We stated distinctly that five months after Kennedy's appoimtment he made the claim which Whittlesey repudiates. The difficulty then arose, nnd has con- tinued up to the present time, and still remains up- adjusted. The Committee on Ways and Moans have it now before them. The Comptroller has made his decision and refuses to recede. Jt isu matter which hus yet to be svitled, and the committee havo been asked to settle it by giving Kenedy tho entire com- Bensation ho desires. The committeo, in order to jetert what wero Konnedy’s olaims, called for the Cemptroller’s decision, ond thus the matter came to light. We will endeavor to procure » eopy of all the documents, which fully sustain everything we have written. As to the fling at the writer, that he de- sires to “ gratify his own private grief,” it ia not only wholly uniounded in fact, but ridiculously ab- | end We have no grief, public operas to gra- tify at Mr Kennedy "8 expense. © pever asked a favor at bis hands, and never desirod any. In short, wo don’t care a button about him one way or the otber. We find, by public documents, that ho | has been endeavoring to get @ salary for an office | which the Comptroller of the Tronsury, Mr. Whit- | tlesey, declares expired on the last day of May, 1860; and for which he himself put inno claim or five months after he received bis present appoint- ment Wo find that the Comptroller spoke of the matter ws it deserves to be spoken of; and being opposed to all “gouging,” we exposed the transac tion, and will follow it up to Mr. Kennedy's full content.

(Frum the Baltinore San, July 7.) Wo are Wie called upon to record one of these terrib @ deeds of crime, so frequently the resul: wf unbridled passion and rankling suspicion, whee ocourred about nine o'clock on Sunday night, iu the southern section of the city. It eppears that an individual named William H. Williams, lived very unbappily with his wife Kiise Ann, having, a4 he supposed, well grounded rowsons to suspect her fidelity. A few days since both de- termined upon a sopuration, bis wife reuting » small houre, No. 333 Charles, near Cross strect, into which she removed a few articles of furniture. Oa tho evening of tho tragedy, Williams was told thas the was living with a man named Samuel Aobott, and ho proccedea immediately to the house, being armed with a huge knife. Passing up the alley he heard persons talking, ag though in a suppressed conversation; he jumped the fence and enterrd the house, where he found his wife in company with Abbott. Ho rushed upon them, and thrust the knife, which be bad in his hand, im to tho left shoulder of bis wife, immediately re; ing the blow, and striking her in the right shoulder, just bo'ow the shoulder blade, tho knife soparatia the Iungs. The unfortunate woman ran throug! tho bacg entrance and thence into the street, where sho gained o neighbor's porch and expired. Wil- liams made several thrusts at Abbot, and inflicted twe or threo very sovore wounds upon his person. He immediately ufter loft the house and gave hi self up to the watchman, who was not aware o! difculty until informed by himself The watoh took him to tho Suuthera district house, and Onpt- Ileffuor immediately repaired to the residence of the uptertupate wowan, und the matior inyos- tigated. When the Captain returned to the watet boure, bo informed Willams that his wife was when he immediately burst into tears and said he was sorry for what ho had done, but any man would bave done the same thing had ho been in his place. Attended by Lieut. Peacock, he conveyed the pri- soner to juil by 11 o'clock. Coroner Kennedy was called ou, and repairing te the boure, held an inquest upon the remains, which produced the following Koy ae a Capt. Heffner testified that ho acsompanied the prisoner to jail, about cleven o’clock on the night the murder was committed; during tho ride, the accused acknowledged that ho gave the murderous blow, and seemed deeply aflicted with the viroum- stance. John Dunlaps averred that he heard the noise of the woman as she foll on the porch of Mr Hoovers ren quickly to the place, and found her weltering in blood; with the useistance of others raised ber up, when she was already dead; when witnoss got to the porch, there were two ladies theroon. : Miss Susan Hoover, one of the ladies, testifed that the woman ran to tho porch on which sie was, and crying out that ber husband had killed her, expired almoet immediately. Caspar Felch being called and sworn, tostified ee follows:—He went to Mr Hoover's porch ond helped to raise up the deceased, in doing which he found she was dead Upon the conclusion of the evidence, a very thorough post mortem examination was made, by Drs. Leas, Carr, aud MoGrawth These gontlemem stated to the jury the preciso character of the wounds, one of which entered the back ut the point enteriot to the right shoulder blade, penetratiog two inchea into the lower lobe of the loft ling. There were three other deep wounds, one of whieke wae on the right shoulder, extending down the are — another on the left shoulder, striking the odge of the shoulder-blade—and third on the tore flager of the right bard, extonding its full length ; The jury returning, aiter a brief deliberati rendered a verdict to the effeot that the dece: came to her death in consequence of wounds inflie~ ed upon her person by the atureeaid William H. Wile lames. Almost immediately after the assoult was made, Samuel Abbott, who is a single man, and apparent- ly not over twenty years of age, ran from the house to the reridence of his mother, a few doors above, on the opposite side of the street. Upon aeriving, he fainted from the }oas of blood, acd was imme- diately thereafter in bed. Tho priaci wound which he received was upon the left shoul extending from the top thereof to tho elbow, and | constituting # severe and painful, though not daager- ova wound, ? The deceased was about thirty-two years of age— had beon married about ten yours, and was the me ther of six children, most of waoom are now living. Her maiden name was Parham, inh highly re spectable family. Her father, an. man, wes iisent during the inquest, and evidenced the most inexpressible grief and emotion Her husband is a | machinist by trade, but of lwer yoars applied hie energies to the conduct of ry establishment on the corner of Hughes and Light street. Concerning the general treatment which the de- ceased recoived at his handa, there are a varioty of conflicting reports some averring that his condacs was characterised by kindness, but the majority am serting that it was quite the reverse, inasmuch as often appeared bearing upoo her countenance the evidences of his brutality and violonce. The whole affair bas occasioned considerable ex- citement in the section of the city where the parties resided. many declaring it to be deeply regrewed that Abbott was not likewise ushed inte eturnity.
