IS a. LONDON, 271U181111T. JUNE 2. Tit' Sardinian army is nobly distinguishing itself under the personal command of its brave and most chivalrous KING. We are no admirers of mere military success. We, civilians as we eve, want the fortitude to contemplate slaughter and wounds from the technical and artistic point of view, and to admire the cleverness with which the army is routed if the people are theteby undone. According to our way of thinking, the most victorious sword most needs to be justified and en nobled by the cause in which it is wielded; but when the liberty of a nation and the interests of human progress are bound up with that cause, we should be ashamed if we did not heartily rejoice in every victory which contributed to its success, count ing that blood not spilt in vain which had flowed to make a people free. Together with a genuice and humane sense of the calamities of war, we base lately been compelled to hear and read a great deal of rant about the wickednem of fighting. We had men ore day calling heaven and earth to wit ness against patriots for the wantonness of drawing the sword for their country and freedom, and the next striving with might end main to influence our warlike passions and political jealousies against our nearest neighbour.. It is time to lay said. professions which deceive nobody, not even ourselves. We are tenderly and wisely alive not only to our rights but to oar honour, and should Hy to avenge either if they were invaded, as the alacrity in which we are combining to form rifle corps shows. Let us, then, upon the principles of common sense, allow that others may, with at least equal reason, fight for deliverance from a giant oppressor. We are a proud and free nation, but our love of liberty is not like the miter's love of his gold, a sordid, selfish passion ; we love it for the noble things it has enabled us to do; and because it can do as much for other', we must needs love to see it extended. It is not uncommon to hear the war discussed with reference to some imagined dangers that would result from French suneas. The obstinacy of the combats which have taken place hitherto does not promise that sudden and overwhelming overthrow of the Austrian domination which some people fear, nor will the victories of the Allies be so exclusively French se is implied in the apprehension referred to. But we know of some casualties which would happen if, unfortunately, Austria should corns tri uniphantly out of this war. If we now call atten tion only to one of them, it is simply because that one has not hitherto acquired the prominence it de serves in public regard. The success of Austria would ensure at least the triumph of Ca►dinal Alt- Tostt.rt and the system of religions servitude which he represents. Among the first-fruits of the Sar dinian constitution were the statutes which made the clergy of the monarchy amenable to the general law ads, land—a measure which the Pori told Count SICCARDI was " a stab at his heart"—sad the permission given to the Vaudois to build richness'& in Turio. This toleration, this reduction of the inordinate prerogative of the ltomi.h Church ha made the rove, the unrelenting enemy of Sardinia. Muy of our readers hare not forgotten how the last sacraments of the Church were refused to the minister Si'. r t ItosA because he would not retract on his death-bed the share he had had as a statesman in promulgating those laws ; nor how the dyin,c man raising his eyes toll invoked tit rnal Jetties to witness that it was demanded of him to do violence to hie eeoeciiroce, and asked pardon for rejecting the saisistratiaos of the Church on such term,. While Sardinia, braving excommunications in which eve* the KING was included, maintained her spiritual iadependence, allowed the members of the free Italian Church libertyof wor►hip, end permitted the erection of Protestant Cnurches at Nice and Genoa, Austria fanned the closest alliance with the Put e. FR iNUIS JOSEPH, by the Coneordat,bronght the arm of the Church into every department of society, and even into the sanctuary of families, and the Clergy cow enjoy in Lombardy and Verna, greater influence and more ext. osiers privi leges than in any other country in Italy, the Papal Stated excepted. The Clergy, in return, write catechisms inculcating the must despotie principles of government, and teach them to the children of the people. Nor is it only in her own dorcialans that Austria has repaid the POPS for hie support. In Tuscany her influence was employed to obtain from the Sovereign, in apposition to the ad% ice of Lie Ministers, • Concordat which seriously diminished the chartered libertieset the people, sad which it was one of the first acts of the sew Oc vernment in Tui.esny to fling to the minds, seta bliahing religious filen, in its stead. Should tare All.es succeed, t►e liberty of teaching and worship enjoyed in Piedmont will be shared by Lombardy, Venice, and Central Italy, as they are already by Tuscany; but the success of Austria would be the return and perpetuation of Egyptian darkiiess. We are told by the friends of Austria and the Pura. that, boast as we may of our neutrality, ' we shall fieht in spite of ourselves on their side. The organs of our High Church party tell us that while " war is in the air we are not our own " masters. We may resolve what we please, but '• our centrality is iii the keeping of others as well "as our own. It is at the mercy of accident.; it is " in a measure subordinate to tire interest of those " engaged in the war or desirous to join in it." We saw the other day what a strong Protestant sup porter of Lied DERBY had to say in explanation of the Pw•a's attachment to the present Govern. , meat—the PitrmiLa's tenure of mike contributed to the stability of the Papal chair. The adherents of the Pore de net conceal their hope, and already THE EXPRESS, THURSDAY EVENING, JUNE 2, 1859. claim the puissance of England for Cardinal AWE°. /CELLI and his Austrian friend. The Tablet thus boards over US All them (English) people who are " arming are quite sure that they neither intend to 1" nor will fight, and that even if they do, it will not "be ea the side of Austria or the POPE. We shall sec Meanwhile we feel able to assure our reedere * that England will tight on that side or not at all." We commend the prospect to the Protestants of England. CO Court.

At a general meeting of the proprietors held yes terday. Mr. JIMIIVA DIXON, In announcing his iutention to retire, made the fallowing statement: Because I wish La snore relatatiou than is compaible with the retention of my present pos.tion I have deckled to vacate it, and accordingly now place in your hands my resignation as dquidetor of the Berough Bank. In this takiag leave of you, I with, with you peraiimin, to make a few remarks In reference to the widely-circulated mierepreeentations of the facts elicited in the case of a. Scott v. Dixon." I have adopted a course with regard to cases of a similar nature which has net yet re suited in the attempt, by a new trial, to obtain a re venal of the verdict obtained In that CNN. Bat win-thee there be a new trial or not, I do not the lees poteet against the great iuju.tioe dune to me by that verdict. The only case made against me, or that can be made against me, rests widths the narrow limas of my having ouncusrerl in the report issued to the shareholders in July, 1857, when I had before me an erimete of looms, 'bowing that the capital seemed to be trenched upon to the extent of fifty-eight thousand pounds out of a =Hilton. I did so concur, but only because I believed it impos.ible that any one could read it without seeing that the capital wes trenched upon. To show that We was my opinion, I may mention that I suggested to the board ut directors the necemity of being prepared with reason@ in answer to the que-tton which I *spec ed would be put, why a dividend had been paid, when on the nowise of the repot, it was pad out of capital. In anticipation of this question the directors were accordingly prepared to give their reerone. I was not induced to adopt the report that was teeter! becaues I thought it would have a more favourable Menne@ on the Rollie or the Aare market than my own draft report. (In the contrary, I entertained fled incidentally expressed the opinion In bearing of some parties—gentlemen who yet re member it—that a report like my draft mien would Inepire shareholder. with more confidence than one like that which wan lamed. I feel convinced that if my Mott report hod bum adapted parohmara of shares would hate had to pa inters then they did. But passing from what wee meant act intended, what wee the effect—what wire the 01/Gle• quencee of the report as it wee tented? Neither I nor the beard had any information warranting us in entertaining a wens opinlen of the book's affairs than was *nivel ed in the stemma laid before us by the manager, 'booker an 'eti olated detietenty of 68.000 L, including the dividend which bad *trendy born paid.

After the report wee issued the highest price paid was 91. Toe report, therefore, mused the shares to tall more even them the estimate of loam* warranted. Any gentleman who brines an action for injury canoed to him by that report undertakes to hi aggrieved because I did not impart to him Information which I did not myself possess, sad which, as an outside director, I wee probated from acquiring by the cotes ions rules sad practice of the bank, which however vicious as a system were yet in accordance with the custom of the Owe. I open of 111) toll as an outside director, be came when the repot was tutted I was virtually only such, (or I hal no' then hod time to acquire the iuformation to be obtained by being behind the scenes. The report was Meted tan the eieth of July, end it was only on the 4th of July, after an absence from Liverpool and horn my own Wismar of nearly a mouth, that I wee asked to sappiy the place of et the two managing director* in ether, neither of whore Weeded, on secount, as I understood, of ill-health. I was a supernumerary in lest until the let of August, after the meeting had taken place, and it was e ly then that a vacancy occurred, 1, fill which I wee elected, and it was only then that 1 began to revive the salary of a mugging director. if hardier evidence were wanted to show • the psil faith of myself and of the booed, and the absent. of ell freudekne or unfair intentioc, it es to be found in the fact that a director pu rc h ase d 99 shares after the report was issued, with no other teethe then that of thinking it a good investment. This gentletnan had before him the statements oa which I and the board act. d. It baa leen alleged that I have utteree expressions showing moral regret end oonecioustiess of having dine wring. I cannot imagine haw each ea Impression can hate eelstn. I have never expressed, nor felt, nor had mum to feeL any sen timent skies to that of moral regret. I have nut intended nor done lecithin that has produced, or that was calculated to produce, any impression am to the vela. of the shores in eneistent with the key..ledge I possessed.

" The whole Valteline is in insurrection." " VERCELLI, WIDNIVIDAT. " The following are some fresh details about the affair at Palestro : " f The Piedmontese army, after having repulsed the enemy along his whole front, was on its right wing fora moment outflanked by the Austrians, who threatened the bridge of boats thrown across the Sesia, over which General Canrobert was to effect a junction with the Bing. " f The Emperor then despatched the 3rd regiment of Zonaves, who, unsupported by any artillery, rushed upon the enemy's battery planted on the farther side of a deep canal, bayonetting or hurling into the water the companies posted on our side of the canal for the defence of the battery, and taking 2 pieces of cannon and 500 prisoners. The Zonaves lost 1 officer and 20 privates killed, and 200 wounded, among whom were 10 officers.'" The Montteur also publishes officially the notifica tion of the blockade of Venice. The following telegrams were received at Mr. Renter's office this morning : TURIN, WIDNISDLY, Jun 1. At 7 o'clock this morning General Niel entered Novara, attacking the Austrian outposts, which after a short encounter took to flight precipitately. The Emperor arrived at 5 o'clock in the evening amid the acclamations of the people. The Austrians have endeavoured to cross the Po at Bassiguano, but the inhabitants opposed their passage, Hrisg upon and destroying an Austrian bark. The Valteline is in insurrection, and the town of Sandrio has proclaimed Victor Emmanuel. The official Poidawitese Gazette, in publishing the order of the day, says as follows concerning the fight of yesterday : " The enemy, in greater force than ourselves, vigorously attacked our right, in order to hinder our junction with General Canrobert. The Fourth' Division, under Cialdini, behaved incomparably. The conduct of the Zouaves contributed considerably to the victory. An Austrian general and several other of the enemy's officers were killed. The Emperor has visited the battle-Held, and congratu lated the army on the advantageous results of the day." VENICE, NAT 30. The Podesta Mareello has tendered his resignation. VERONA, MAT 30. The ringing of bells on the approach of the and every information given to the enemy about the movements of the Austrian troops, have been pro hibited, and will be punished most severely. MILAN, MAT 30. An official proclamation hu been published against agitators and the disseminators of disquieting reports. GARIBALDI. We ( Times) have received the following telegram from our Vienne correspondent: " VIENNA, WEDNESDAY EVENING, Joy' 1. " Garibaldi has been driven bask from Bondrio into the mountains. General Urban's troops ere pursuing him. " Count Cl►m's army-corps is already at Milan, Brescia, &c. " The only issue now open to Garibaldi is the Stelvio. . The above news is official." BERNE, WEDNESDAY. (Via Fame.) General Garibaldi himself, or a strong detach. ment of his force, has left Como, and arrived in the afternoon of the 30th before Leven°, a fortified town on the Lego Maggiore. He commenced an imme diate attack upon the town, and maintained it during the whole night. Yesterday morning Gari baldi's troops withdrew, but resumed in the evening the attack, which lasted the whole night. BERNE, IV zosesDAY (YU GaITISSUJ). The Austrians in force, amounting to 4,000 men, took possession yesterday of Varese. The Sardinian auxiliary troops, under the corn. mend of General Cialdini, were intercepted, and could not reach Sato Cslende. General Garibaldi marched to Laveno. Cannonading was heard the whole night at the frontier of the canton Tessin. NAPLES. We reed in the Prim : " The discussions between Franoe and England touching the affairs of Naples are, it is said, not yet terminated. There is no doubt good reason to sup pose that the two powers are agreed in the main, but their diplomatic agents are not yet definitively named; and, moreover, the uncertainty which pre vails an to the course which Francis IL's govern ment will take, sufficiently accounts for the hesita tion, or rather the circumspection, of the cabinets of London and Paris." The Hon. Henry Elliot left London on Tuesday, charged with a special mission froM the English government to the wart of Naples. Mr. Elliot is our minister at Copenhagen, but being in England was selected by Lord Malmesbury for this important mission. Signor Antonini has arrived at Paris from Naples for the purposeof notifying to the French government the ascension or the throne of Naples by Francis 11. It is asserted that he will oleo go to London and Brawls for the purpose of making a similar an nouncement at the courts of those cities. PRUSSIA. BERLIN, WEDNTADAT. A government announcement has been made this day stating the conditions under which the officially ordered new Prosaism loan at 5 per cent. is to be issued. The issue is to be made in coupons of from 60 to 1,000 thalers ; the payment of the interest to be half-yearly, and the redemption of the debt to °eminence from 1883 by the payment of I per cent. per annum.

They say :—" The Grand Duke Con stantine is expiated here to-morrow. The Sultan has held a review of 25,000 soldiers. The reserve will be immediately despatched to Roumelia. The Porte will send troops and ships to Albania. 2,000 Ser visas, with artillery, have depsyted to reinforce the Montenegrins. "Prince Miloech ignores this fact, but the attitude of the Serviette inspires rev.. Letters also assert that the Porte is about to send four ships, four fri gates, and two &rhos to the Adriatic, under the command of Mehemed Pacha, who in certain emer gencies would exercise his command under the orders of an English admiral. "The garrison of the fortress of Belgrade has been reinforced. Omer Pecha remains at Bagdad, being detained there in consequence of the threatening attitude of Persia." EXPRESS FROM PARIS. (Fnon orn own coaansron.wnr.) PARIS, WEDNESDAY EVENING. The rumours of a grand battle, which I men tioned yesterday,are not confirmed by the Moniteur, , which speaks only of an attack upon the King of Sardinia, and says that General Troche's division, which supported him, was not engaged to any great extent. It is plain, however, from subsequent des patches, that there was much more fighting yester day than the Moniteur discloses. The rumours of continual combats spin peeve" to-day. A letter from Vercelli (of May 30) states that, in the view of an expected engsgem-nt, the main body of the French army had received orders to concen trate itself upon Casale, Valence, and Vercelli. In the coarse of a few hours Ms , Ail Bataguay d'Hil lien' corps d'armie evacustvd Casteggio, Montebello, and Voghers, and the Austrian troops have again taken possession of those towns. The Pattie contains the following paragraphs : Prince Napoleon hie left Legho.A for Pistols, whence he will return t) Florence. The sth corps tinder his command is being repi ily organised; it has recoivel a part of its artil lery and cavalry, sal the net fe expczted shortly. It is thought that the prince will be able to commence operations within a week. We have reoeiv..d the following letter, which we have great pleasure in publi.hing : Csateggio, May 27. " In your number of the 23rd you mietook the name of the head of my staff. That ofiltr.r is Lieutenant-Colonel vague, and the part he took in the battle of Montebello wu too glorious for me not to be most /mien, to see the error corrected.—Aooept, &0., "The General Commanding the let Divielon of the let Corp', "FOIST." The government of the Two &hies bee just taken a very serious step; ft has probthited the exportation of sulphur. I think it may be taken for granted that the new King of Naples is in the hands of the Austrians. I look upon the idea of his being persuaded to join the Franco-Sardinian alliance as altogether absurd. It is also very plain to me that as soon as convenient he will be turned out of his kingdom and be replaced by a sovereign whom it is agreed not to name till the time comes for a general settlement of the affairs of Italy. As an index of the way in which the wind blows I think it nut unimportant to quote the fol lowing paragraph which has been cent for insertion to the provincial papers: Yesterday evening, at the Cafti Riche, one of the few Italians now left is Paris spoke so loud as to annoy the people sitting near him. A gentleman Aired of listening to this noisy talk, which is a peculiarity of the Neapolitans, told him to be quiet. The Italian was about to reply, but the other rejoiced toe load voice :—" Sir, when a man has not the cut. ago to tight be ought to to askew 4 to chow hiniech here." The Noepolitan, disconeert3d, took his hat end slunk away. It hu already been given out that if Francis does cot declare war upon Austria he will thereby show himself unworthy to reign in Napks. The Bourse was not so good al yesterday. The settlement led to much fluctuation. The Rents oscillated between 631 r. 10c. and 621 r. 40c. It left off at 621 r. 80c. for cash and 62fr. 60c. for account, with a rise in the tint cue of 5c., and a fall of 10c. in the other. Mobilier fell 12fr. 50c. The Orleans railway fell 15fr. and the other hues from 2fr. 50c. to ifr. The Minister of Public Worship has been ordered by the Emperor to express to the bishops of France his Majesty's entire satisfaction with the general tone of their addresses to their clergy on the occa sion of the war. The Noniteur ge C.:lsmer says : Colonel Merk de Belidos, of the 91st of the who was wounded at the combat of Montebello, only au• rived bts wound/ two days. Contradictory reports had kept his family and fret:ids in the must painful une:rtainty, but a letter seat by the Minister of War to Mde. Merle do Melba has now informed her of the truth.

WEST INDIA AND PACIFIC MAILS. The Parana arrived at Southampton yesterday with the West India and Pacific mail . Ida dates are :--Jamaica, May 12th ; Vera Cruz, sth ; Panama, 9th; Trinidad, 10th; Demerara, 9th; St. Thomas, 16th. She brought 176 passengers. Amongst her cargo was specie to the value of 148,5881.45. dd. Her Majesty's ships Indus (flag), Tartar, and Jasper were at Bermuda ; the Atalanta was at Barhadoes ; the Basilisk at Greytown ; the Devastation and Styx at Havannah ; the Arachne at Vera ern ; and the Imanm (flag) at Jamaica. A Danish steamer was coaling with despatch at St. Thomas, bound for Hayti. The La Plata, with the mails of the 2nd ult., arrived at St. Thomas on the 15th ult. From Demerara we learn that provision had been made by the Court of Policy for the introduction, under indenture for two years, of 1,000 Portuguese labourers, the cost to be borne equally by the planters and the colony. About 18,0001. wan voted by the court for salaries for the maintenance of ministers of the Christian religion in British Guiana for nine years, in the following proportion, viz., for the Church of England ministers, 47,680 dollars; for the Church of Scotland ministers, 24,560 dollars ; for Roman Catholic ministers, 12,000 dollars ; and for the Wesleyan ministers, 4,000 dollars. With respect to the Railway Loan guarantee, a resolution passed the Court of Policy to the effect that 175,0001. should be raised, it being expressly understood that no new bonds shall be given to the holders of existing and pm. ferenoe stock until after the mortgage and other debts due to the colony shall be paid in full; the line from Georgetown to Belfield be put in complete and effi cient repair ; the line extended and completed to Mahaica ; the plant, permanent way, rolling stock, buildings, and 'telling@ shall have been put in com plete working order, with a sufficient number of engines, trucks, and other material for carrying on in a proper manner the traffic of the line, and the sum to be represented by all the bonds to be issued under the arrangement shall not exceed the sum of 175,000/. The exports daring the fortnight have been— Sugar, 2,063 hhds. 92 trey., 590 brio. and 889 bags; rum, 676 puns., 331 fres., 108 bele. ; molasses, 59 puns. ; 9,858 feet hardwood timber. At Barbadoes the weather during the fortnight had been distressingly dry, and the young cane crop was not thriving well anywhere. Several planta tions in St. Lucy and' Bridgetown had finished; the yield had not been very satisfactory, and in most places the crop had fallen considerably short of last year's. More than half of the crop had been reaped, and the quantity of produce shipped to date is put down at 14,609 hhds., 1,078 tierces, 2,018 brie. sutra!; 2,210 puns., 69 hhds., 66 brie. molasses; 137 puns., 56 hhda. rum. At Jamaica the weather, which bad been exceed ingly dry for some months past, had slightly changed, and some showers had fallen. The heat had been intense. The drought had told very heavily on the sugar crop. In some districts the yield of sugar wan fully 35 per cent. below the estimates. Cuba, however, has made provision against a decrease of production from natural causes, by a large extension of cultivation through the agency of the slave trade. The Colonial Standard says The fact is notorious that the slave trade now proceeds in Cuba as openly aryl as unrestrictedly as does the imp:elation of floor from the United State,. There I. at this moment no ocean police to watch the traffic, sod there Is neither law nor authority to check it within the island. Slavers fit out in. and sail from the port of Havana ea notoriously and with al little concealment as a We.t India trader takes in her cargo of produce in our port for the West India Docks or for Liver. pool. The prosperity of Havana, an eyerwitaces awores us, ID unbounded. 1 here Is no such business is the universe as the " Bieck Bird" trade, now that the American government has succeeded in wrung that trade, by their threat of making its supprresion by Oreat Britain a case. ball. The imports of slaves into Cuba this year will, there is mason to believe, be the largest ever known. The same authority adds : The announcement made ht parliamsat by Sir Edward f3ulwer Lytton, that her ltlirje'sty's royal iseent had at length been ecru to the linmigration Act passed by the leghlature of this island, has teen received with profound thinks by all who feel a tune interest in the future welfare of this unfortunate Felony. . - De Cordora's Intelliocarer observes : A trilling improvement in trade may be said to have pre vailed during the past fortnight, though prices have sot varied much trom last quotations, except for fish atudawhich, bring reported scarce in Halifax, hove realised high prices. The principal opi rations in Ameskan 'tulle which ere re ported in our Review, embrace the sale et auction of the cargo of the John Griffith, from Baltimore. There is little else in the transactions in our market calling for special attention. Flour may be reported moving more frerly for coosumpties, the stook having been reduced considerably during the last four weeks. del Cualloss.—On Loudon—Colonial Bank : 90 days, per cent. premium; 60 days, 1 per rent. premium ; 30 aye, If per crnt. premium. Jamaica Bank: 90 days, per cent. premium ; 63 days, 1 per cent. premium ; 30 MTh per cent. premium. At Trinidad an average crop is expected. From Orejtown our correspondent writes on the 2nd : " By this packet Colonel Cooper goes to England, with the authority of the Nicaraguan government, to conclude the contract accorded to M. Belly for making the canal and transit through the lathmas of Panama via the Lake of Nicaragua; but it is thought by most people who have travelled that route to be an impracticable undertaking. I expect the engineer's report will not be very favourable. I would advise no person to have any shares in the undertaking. The old entrance to the river San Juan is rapidly closing up, there being now only 9 feet where there used to be 18. " Off Greytown is her Majesty's ship Basilisk, and in the river her Majesty's schooner Kingstown, formerly a slaver; the letter was to leave for Jamaica un the 16:h next. The American corvette St. Louis was off Greytown, her captain being seriously ill. " At Colon, on the 10th, were the American ships Roanoke and Jamestown. The Spanish Main was very healthy, and no rain had yet been experienced. It is said that New Granada is upon the eve of a revolution. " Chili is in revolution, the rebels being led by Gtlio ' who possesses much power in the provinces. The Peruvians are still blockading Guayaquil, though it iv expe c ted that through the good offices of the Chilisn minister the differences between them I and the Equadorians may be arranged. There are good accounts generally from British Columbia; her Majesty's ship Ganges was at Valparaiso on the 16th April, and the Alert is expected at Panama daily with about 3,000,000 dollars. A letter from Florence ear :—" I hear that the Archbishop of Fieaole, hearing of the indisposition of hie brother, the Prelate of Florence, boa volunteered to officiate to-wirow at the solemn benediction of the etenderde, whereat, m the Archbishop of Flower;, the Primate of Tuacany, Immediately felt better in health, and announced that he should be well enough to-morrow to diecharge the duty devolving on him, and from which he bad already positively aid definitively excusel himself." The arzelte des Hopitaux publishes a letter from a surgeon in the French army, dated from MouttbellOa which says .—"We have to attend at this nowent 800 woundad—Soo French and 300 Austrians. 'The new pro. jectiks produced extraordinary effects, and we foresee that we shall have many more operations to perform than when round halls were used. The sacitary ware of the wounded is satisfactory, and they are in good spitint ; in 'pite of their aufferinge, French gaiety does not abandon them." The Genoa Gazette states that on the 2tith tat., whit• Omen! d' Hart:4llc n was superintending the tnakepori of the French tick and wounded to the hospital at Gan., two gentlemen took up some wounded in their etnitge, and convoyed theta to the hospital.
