LATER EUROPEAN NEWS.
DISASTROUS DEFEAT OF THE AUSTRIANS. CESSION BY AUSTRIA OF 7ENETIA. Owing to the opening up of various ocean mail routes and the extension of the telegraphic »ystem~, news in a fragmentary form continues to reach the colonies by many direct and indirect channels. The Panama steamer with the English mails to the 2nd July, now overdue, ha 9 not reached Wellington, but late Mauritius popers received in Melbourne, contain late telegraphic intelligence. We extract the following items from the " Port Louis Commercial Gazette "of August 3 :—": — " Prussia has gained a great victory over the Austrians, and taken 14,000 prisoners and 116 guns. After this disastrous defeat, Austria consented to cede Venetia." "Calcutta, July 13: — Government has sanctioned twenty lacs to be expended in aid of famine fund ; the rice to be sold at coat price." -
