Tit, terms of the Treaty stated to have been signed at Zurich by the Plenipotentiaries of Frane and A ustria are no more than • laborious amplification of thoee agreed to by the two EMPGII.OII at Villa franca. As neither the Government of Piedmeet nor that of any other Italian State wee repreeentedat that memorable interview, few if any traces of wine or just regard for their interests are to be food ie the conditions finally agreed to. Loothardy,divrelet of her frontier fortresses, igen:rendered by Austria. sod transferred to berilisia by France ; but 250 milliw francs, or ten minima penode sterling, are ateeholl by war of eompossatien. Had the pnblis debt. of which this sum is said to fora • part, bees mow erected fee parposse beoslicial to the newly-sn eezed province, or for objects dear to its industrious people, the bargain Inlaid not appear to be very hard. Bat her Italian ptenseekone wore ocitorimsely treated by Austria as a draw-farm, whams ohs woe =algid, from time to timo, to replenish bar exhanoted ax sheqeorr, and to till up the ranks of heir 111-paid repl mrars. Over sod above the annual matted, the proopeetive cepabllitirr of the Milanese ware met saw to meet Imperial edireeeles, anompt which were coefessedly the net titles, which, if not demolished, ought ger- Willy to be heeded over with the territory es whose eerge they stand. Their original purpose, a. a means of domsetio repetesioa, is gone, and they sae only in future be valued sa strongholds of powe r sigaisot neighbours with whom the Court of Vienna professes her willingness to live is peace, or against the ialtabitanta of Venetia, whole disaffection she pretends is about to be appeased by the new coo siltation of • separate and local Government under the beet of the Imperial family. In any view of the subject, therefore, Peachier& and Mantua ought to go with Lombardy. One-looking the rich unguarded plains that stretch from the Ticino to the siincio, they will matinee to be re garded ooly aa • standing menace to the newly constituted realm ; and it does seem particularly bard that about the only tangible thing on which it min be alleged the public debt raised in Lombardy of recent years was spent should not be surrendered with the inheritance to its rightful owners, they being compelled to become answerable for the squandered outlay. Forgetful of the splendid promise held forth at the commencement of the war, NAPOLCON 111. con sented at Villafranca to abet the reinstatement of the banished Lords of Minute in Central Italy. When a:I Europe subsequently raised the voice of rtmosstrance he was glad to enable his newspapers to point out that that rough draft of an accommoda tion contained no provision respecting the employ ment of force, glad to declare that not only had he never contemplated playing the ignominious part of ',fastener of fetters on those he had beckoned into revolt, but that he would not suffer them to be driven back into thraldom again. In reply to the urgent protests of Ragland that the people of the Duchies ought to be permitted to choose their own rulers and their future forms of rule, the French EMPEROR has repeatedly gives the most explicit m ontanee that so far as France is concerned their free choke shall not be interfered with. Yet, strange to say, he now appi ars to re-affirm, in the formal docu ment which has taken weeks to elaborate at Zurich, his readiness to aid in procuring the restoration of the hated Viceroys of Imperialism to their puppet thrones. Whether we are to read this as the li'eral fulfilment of rash words spoken at Villefranca, the practical interpre tation of which he reserves, or whether we are to ascribe it to the vacillations of a mind swayed alternately by contending interests, time must die el se. thing meanwhile is certain, that—es be tnien us and bin—there is no room for evasion or uticersinty. 1 his condition of the treaty will either pr .'e to b.• 111,1114P11 rtrtt,m, or we shall have been f 'greatly deceived. We are not disposed to apprehend the latter, and, to say the truth, we do nut apprehend it. Then we bare a pompous sounding article about RD Italian Confsderatiun, which is to embrace a:l the governments of the Peninsula—Muffle, in right of her fettO!ion of Venetis, being included x preeely by assns—to be presided over by the Pore, and to hay* at its disposal a Federal army. Even without the restoration of the reactionary rulers of the Duchies, it is easy to ace what the predominant el , tarots in such a federadiy would be. Nsplee, Itorne, and Venetia, under arch-ducal administra tion, would eventually outweigh in compete or in conclave all the influences of the rest of Italy. It wou:d be, is a word, au anti. Italian league—a league of higotry eg Jest toleration, of foreign despotism against Dative lile•rty, of darkness against light. To suppose the Ministers of VICTOR EMMANUEL euteriog into such an anti-iia•i.insl pact is out of the question. Were it possible to e main them blind enough to dreem of ther..by being able eventually to grope their war to the &kph:mien and complete emancipa tion of Dirk race, they would be restrained by the eelatary remembrance that they are, after all, the Mkirstere of a voneritutional Sovereign, and that to a freely el cirri Chamber they must ere long render an ac.;uant of their acts and counsel*. IWe need not pause to ask what soy free adorably of Italians would say to a proposition foe entering Mb a permanent political partnership with the federal nominees of Vienne, Rome, and Naples, gersrlfe4 they are. But there is, we are told a stipulation in the forthcoming treaty that the two ESIPEROILB shall conjointly use their influence to persuade the Vatican to reform its adminivtrative system. Con joint remonstrances have been tried before without effect: what likelihood is there of their succeeding better now ? If the terms of the treaty be accu rately described (and we have no reason to donht that they are so), they tend fatally to confirm the Papal Government in its obstinate adherence to its old and inveterate habits of misrule. No territorial change is, wears told, to be permitted in those States which took so part in the late war, without the approval of a majority of the European Powers which were parties to the settlement of 1814. Until, therefore, a Congress shall have assembled, deliberated, and decided on the re-distribution of the States of the Peninsula, the Holy See is bidden to take comfort, as neither France nor Austria will re cognise the liberation of any portion of its territorial victims. Nevertheless, we adhere to the conviction we hays already expressed, that, as far as the destiny of the Italian people is lastingly eneeerned, this lest pro duct of the diplomatic loom is no more than a huge sad fragile cobweb, in wheel meshes the weak and blind may be for the moment entangled, but which the first 'isolate hand will, without effort, brash away. Lett the Italians sot permit themselves to be imposed on or dispirited by big words. Courage, wisdom, patience, union —these, which they already have, are sufficient, with perseverance, to defeat al plots which may be formed against them. LATEST, INTELLIGENCE. RING VICTOR EMMANUEL AT GENOA. Oa the morning of the lath King Victor Em manuel received in a body the municipality of Genoa, the Mayor of Brescia, and a deputation from Bergamo. In reply to an address from the Mayor of Genoa, the King observed that the cause of Italian independence was the cause of justice, and that he would continue to defend it to the utmost of his power. His Majesty spoke also of the moral and material assistance he had received from the Italian people, recalling acts of valour and heroism on the part of the soldiers and volunteers, adding that the Genoese soldiers and those of Riviera ceded to none when danger was to be encountered; but much yet remained to be done. The difficulties and obstacles to be surmounted were numerous; but he hoped that with resolution, union, and perseverance, the lawful wishes of Italy would be granted. " Cer tainly," added his Majesty, " there are questions which are solved much more promptly on the battle field than by means of diplomacy; but we hope, nevertheless, that a satisfactory result will sties from the latter, since our cause has with it the sym pathies of Europe." Tne King also addressed some friendly words to the Mayor of Brescia, and to the deputation from Bergamo. SPAIN AND MOROCCO. MADRID, Ocr. 20.

THE EXPRESS, FRIDAY EVENING, OCTOBER 21, 1859. EXPRESS FROM PARIS. PARIS, TNERSDAY EVENING. The news circulating about what has been done or may be doing at Zurich is worse than no in formation at all. It comes chiefly from the Belgian papers, and is a mere heap of confusion. According to one statement, the delay in completing the second treaty arises from the fact of the question of the Lombard debt having been referred to the arbitra tion of the King of the Belgians. Oar correspon dent confidently says that the King has already made his award, and that all the treaties will be com pleted in a day or two. Bat another authority, of equal weight, affirms that the question has never been referred to arbitration at all, Austria having at the last moment accepted the ultimatum of Piedmont as to the figure. The Pays has asserted that the signature of the two treaties which are wanting to complete the Labours of the Zurich Conference, is only delayed on account of diplomatic formalities, and that the three powers are entirely agrrod as to every point to be embraced in the treaties. Another version is that the differences remaining to be arranged are very unimportant. But the Nord speaks as if everything between Sardinia and Austria remained unsettled. According to some of the correspondents of this journal, the King of Sar dinia protests "mat energetically" against the proposed frontier line, against the exorbitant amount asked in respect of the debt, and against the form in which the preliminaries of Villafranca are recited in the treaty between France and Austria. Negotiations on "these three points" are said to be going on. The Nord further affirms that the "signature announced by the Mooitever to the first treaty was cot a definitive signature, bat only paraph,' " and that this treaty will not be final unless the others which are in serious dispute shall be agreed upon. The semi-official journals here have no instructions, and are as mute as the 3forii hew. The Steele, the Press', and the Opinion Nationale refuse to believe that the Zurich eon.. ferenoe can have pursued any such arrange ment as that elaborately set forth in the Independence Beige, an arrangement which, under the pretext of • compromise between the rights of legitimacy and the rights of the people, would grossly violate both the one principle and the other. Amidst all this confwdoa it should be remembered that the Pays, which, as the frequent organ of this Foreign.office, is more likely to be well informed than the Belgian journals, said the day before yesterday that all questions relating to Central Italy were reversed for a congress. A letter frem Berlin noticed by the Prom states • hat which I have not seen elsewhere, viz., that imme diately after the signature of the treaty be tween France and Austria, the two high co•traeting parties convened the other powers, parties to the treaties of 1815, to meet in a congress. This statement is the more pointed because the letter rays that the news was received by telegraph at Berlin at the same time as that of the signature of the treaty. On the same authority it is assumed at Berlin that a oopy of the treaty will be sent to the different courts appealed to in order to enable them to judge of the propriety of joining in a congress. All that I can add to the desultory summing up of the doubtful news floating about, is that the Foreign office people in Paris speak very resolutely about a congress, and talk lightly of doing without England it she persists in her scruples and will not mime into the arrangement on the terms desired by France and Austris. The Howse continues in the same dull state. The Rents fell 16c. for cub, and dc. for account, closing at 69fr. 60c., and 69fr. 650. Mobilier was about lfr. higher. Railways fell a little. A correspondence in the Debuts states that the little French army in Cochin China having been obliged by fatigue and sickness to give up its enter prise there, is going to China. Vice-Admiral Rigand de Genouilly, although he evacuates Tourane, will leave a garrison at Saigon. Captain (of a frigate) laurequiberry has been appointed commander of this The Moniteur pnblighee the following puff for the government periodical the Revue BuroiWenne ; Several French and foreign journals have lately bees busy log themeless about the Am* Europimm. There is nothing to justify the rumours which have been &calmed. The Revue Esgropienne remalas with its present management under the same patroness which it has enjoyed from its foundation. The Mayor of Brest, who must, I think, be of Irish extraction, has just issued a decree from which I extract the two following clauses: . . . . Amy mama found stretched out in the public streets Ina state Incapable of taking care of himself by reuan of drankennesa, shall be eualaidtred as causing en obstruction to the circula tion. Any tavern-keeper who may have supplied the Loner wlih which any individual may have made himself drunk to the extent aforessid, shall he deemed and taken to have been drunk himself, and shall be punished accordingly. PIEDMONT. A Turin letter gives uu following u the sub stance of a new law to be proposed by M. Refuel, In consequence of the annexation of Lombardy to Piedmont : The Lombardo-Sardinian kingdom, for ench will be the official title of the state, is to be divided into ten or twelve great provisoes, each of between 700,(00 and 800.000 in habitants. These provinces are to be divided into districts, the districts into circumscriptions, and the latter into town ships. Each province to have a governor, waisted by • council. In each district there is to be an Intendant, under the direction of the governor, and in each township &syndic. Such I. the administrative order representing the pewit neut. The governor will have a threefold character— political, administrative, and judicial. The council, named by the government, will only have jade diction in PINS of administrative disputer, with appeal to the Court of Amounts aed the Council of State. The governor, the councillors, the intendant, the delegate and the syndic am to be aimed by the King. The syndic, however, must be selected from among the municipal councillors.

(nor ors. °wig NEW YORK, Ocr. 8. , Ballooning is the latest rage in these latitudes, and it has excited a good deal of attention, owing to the promulgation of a theory by one of the professors of the art recently, that there is a steady current of air in the upper strata of the atmosphere from west to east, caused by the earth's motion on its axis, " or something," as a young lady would ay. To verify it, the professor in question, who rejoices in the stupendous cognomen of La Mountain, with two friends, ascended in a monster balloon at St. Louis, and getting into the very upper regions did really light upon an eastward current, and was carried towards the Atlantic for twenty-four hours, at as enormous speed and finally, after traversing Lake surface Erie on the of the wafer, in a violent hurri cane, and at the imminent risk of both being drowned, and smashed by pairing steamboats, they alighted on the following morning at Troy, in this State. The professor has ever since rather plumed himself upon at least a partial verification of his ' theory. He ascended again with renewed Deca dence from this neighbourhood the other day, and for a week nothing was heard of him, and he was given up for lost, when a telegram was received from him this morning announcing his safe descent in the Canadian wilds, 200 miles from civilisation, with the loss of balloon and everything else, and his having fallen in with some Indians, who guided him to the frontier, after having been four days without food. He had travelled northward, it appears, five hours, at the rate of a mile • minute, and ten hours more of such sailing would have brought him to the Polar regions, and Into the very neighbourhood in which Sir John Franklin is supposed to have been lost. This untoward result seems rather damaging for the eastward current theory, and was certainly very near being damaging for its originator. Bat such adventures have nevertheless a tendency to throw a halo round ballooning, which the tamer exploits of " the veteran Green " could never give it. A monster aerial machine has just been constructed by another sanguine inventor, and is now nearly ready for ascension in this city, by which he con fidently expects to be able to cross the Atlantic. The car is an enclosed snugly furnished apartment, with a trap door in the floor by which a descent may be effected by a rope ladder into a boat, suspended beneath, and armed with • screw or paddles, worked by an Ericson caloric engine. How the machine is to be steered does not clearly appear, but it is on • monster scale, and attrac's a good deal of attention. The Chinese news continues to form the main topic of discussion in the newspapers. They are tolerably unanimous in their condemnation of Com modore Tatuall's interference in the conflict on the Peiho. Some few commend it on the score of humanity and good-fellow ship; but the general feeling is one of dis ipproval, partly, however, owing to the hostile tone exhibited by some of your contemporaries, before the details of the fight arrived, on hearing that the American Minister had nude his way to Pekin in advance of the allies. People ask which they are to take as sincere, the expression of surly dissatisfaction at Mr. Ward'. diplomatic success, or that of gratitude for the kindness of the American officers to your forces during as well as after the action. They say they find it hard to be kicked and shake hands at the same moment. Admiral Hope's course in insisting on passing up that branch of the Peiho without satisfying himself that the Chinese statement that there was another was actually false, meets with very general condemnation. I have not yet heard • single opinion on the other side. War, and above all, war with barbarism, over whom we claim • moral as well as physical superiority, ought not to be resorted to until every pains have been taken to ensure our being in the right. A gunboat sent round to the north would have ascer tained in half-a-day whether there was another mouth to the Peiho or not, and whether there really was an officer waiting there to receive the ministers. Atter tour or five hundred men have been killed and wounded, and a bloody war re-opened, it is not pleasant to reflect that, patinae, it was all due to a mistake, and that a little inquiry might have pre vented it.

The boat was only 86 miles from the stip, and I believe it to have been returning for more provisions. The two skeletons found in it were probably the boalkeeptea—men unable to march with the others, all of whom I suppose to have proceeded for the short remaining distance without the boat. There was ammuni tion in abundance, but the country—the early opting, at least, when our countrymen were there—affords no game whatever. Even Esquimau: cannot live there. " With regard to provision; you will observe that I men tioned chocolate, tea, and tobacco. It is clear that they alone will not sustain life. You are doubtless aware that an unusually large quantity of solid animal food is necessary, even to men in vigorous health, in cold climates.
