THERF. is good reason to believe the telegram which states that the Garibaldians have entered l'Apus, the reasons for a retrograde movement of the garrison of that place being obvious and impe rative. The Bourbon army is threatened now from the east even more than from the south. hernia, where CIALDINI attacked them last week, and where Views Eul[lllll7= wee last heard of, is nearer to Gaeta than Naples, and as the Sardinian General must have advanced much nearer the coast since then, the brigades at Capua must either fall back on Gaeta or be cut off. The Kisu has now crossed the Apennines, and will per through Venafro and Caput., enter ing Naples on Saturday or Sunday next. It will be wen that Faascis 11. has sent an agent to the Warsaw Conference, on which the Pore WOO appeals to build some hopes. These hopes should to very confident, since hie HOLINIM has chosen the present moment to make a more serious de monstration than he has yet essayed against the Government of France. The Pore has recalled his Nuncio from Paris. This extreme measure has been taken in consequence of the refusal of the Eurer.im to saint in maintaining him perma nently in the government of the territory beyond Bien, Viterbo, and Cornet*. Perhaps the Pore may find it is not always good to be off with the old love before you are on with the new. French action in the Roman States is, however, still highly equivocal. The telegraph reports that the French occupation is to be ex tended at the expense of the newly-acquired na tional liberty. Under the protection of French bayonets the detested rule of the priests is to be re-established in Montalto and Orvieto. This is not fair to the inhabitants of these towns, who had a right to expect that the Eerratos would recognise in their case the application of those principles of popular sovereignty on which his own throne rests ; nor is it intelligible to Europe, which, in acquiescing in the principle of non-intervention, cannot except France from its operation. Ta■ paper on the Peace of Europe signed Q. (; aILIIALDI, which appeared in OUT columns yes terday, would, no doubt, come upon many readers with the force of a dramatic surprise. That the Liberator of Italy, conducting at this moment the most arduous and difficult military enterprise of modern times, should have leisure to think of any thing beyond the national cause, or even the pre sent campaign, is wonderful enough. But that the simple soldier, whose life has been spent in the camp and the field, should turn from the absorbing thoughts of war to meditate schemes of universal peace, may be to some more astonishing still. To those, however, who have studied GAZIZALDea character there will be nothing new or surprising in this. It is in perfect harmony with the man, and illustrates afresh the breadth of his intellect, the purity of his heart, the depth and nobleness of his whole nature. He is incapable of a selfish thought or low pur pose. The whole energies of a rarely gifted and rarely balanced n►ture are devoted to a single ob ject—that of benefiting his fellow-men in the most direct manner and on the widest scale. He seeks the good of others with the seine passionate ardour, cool sagacity, and invincible steadfastness that most men pursue their own. But he is at the same time thoroughly practical, seeking to do without delay what comes first to be done. And as heroism, like charity, begins at home, be is necessarily a patriot, and, in the present state of Italy, an armed patriot. But though the condi tion of his native land hes made him a soldier, he could never pursue war for its own sake. It is at best the terrible but iodispensable means to the great and noble end in view. He draws the sword to destroy the chronic elements of war and conquer the conditions of lasting peace. And now that his work is for the present almost accomplished, and he is about to sheathe his victorious sword, ho solemnly directs the attention of Europe to these conditions. In the hour of triumph, when Europe is ringing with the glory of his achievements, instead of dwelling on what is done, however great or noble, his mind reverts at once to those larger hopes and aims of his life which remain unaccomplished. For the moment the attention of all Europe is fixed on and every man waits anxiously to hear what the De-rsroa will say or do next A selfish or ambitious man would enjoy the triumph of such a position, and turn it to his own licConint. GLISIBALIn turns it to account, but in his own noble way. He seises the precious mo ment wheu all its peoples are listening to utter the thow;hui and aspirations of his inmost heart with regard to the future concord and welfare of Europe —how these "fratricidal wars" may he made to cease, end " this poor life of man he passed " begin!' than in a eminent state of menac.• and " hostility, and the constant study to kill one " soother scientifically." It is impossible to mad this earnest, noble plea in favour of international ceocord, enlightenment, and progress without feel ing that, thongh the writer wears a sword and knows how to use it, he is nevertheless in the truest sense an apostle of that divine faith which breathe■ peace on earth and good-will to men. The moment chosen for issuing this solemn pleading in favour of European peace, though it may appear at first sight ill-timed, is peculiarly opportune. Such a plea published at snch a moment by the first soldier and most suceesefti general in Europe, rebukes at once the short sighted friends and equally short-sighted foes of a truly pacific policy. It is imposeible for reflective and generous mind, not to look beyond the unfit: wary end barren wary that have periodically ravaged Europe and devastated the world to • lasting peace. Such of poilei, AS bent= of reign hope of all noble minds. It is nu eT - i — he 1 great thoughts and sublime anticipations nide society cannot but cherish, which b~loojt iii race, and must re-appear at intervals in the MAW of the world. But, like other great ideas, it nay be discredited for a time by a superficial interpreta tion of current events ; or it may be vulgarised and deleeded by the noisy patronage of men who do net understand its true meaning or conditions. This is exactly what has happened with regard to this great idea of peace which the victorious soldier of Italy presents in a practical stage to the consideration of Europe. It has been taken up and adopted u a kind of watchword by men who have been unable to discriminate between a germ that can only be gradually developed under favourable conditions, and a system that is to be carried into effect at once irrespective of all midi tiona. Those who hastily adopted the programme of peace at any price fell into this error. They mis took both the end and the means of a truly pacific policy. They desired it not so much for its own sake as for the sake of the incidental mercantile eivantages it offered. And they tried to secure it at once by a kind of rude coup de main, instead of patiently helping to bring about the moral and social changes which are essential to its establishment. Peace can only be secured by gradually destroying the chronic elements of war. The experience of the last ten years in Europe allows that the most prolific of these elements is the cruel oppression of large-gifted and gallant nationalities. Till the more cruel and violent of these public wrongs are reduced, it is vein to expect permanent peace or security. Some degree of national freedom is thus amongst the first and moat essential conditions of lasting inter national concord and security. The hasty and shortsighted friends of peace, who were willing to purchase it at the price of national degradation, thus mistook the shadow for the substance, and cried vociferously Peace, peace, when there was and could be in reality no peace. On the other hand, the hard and shallow interpreters of current events, who ridicule not only the peace party but the notion they imperfectly represent, are equally short-sighted. Their view is just as narrow and they are just as much deceived as their opponents. Because there was peace for a few years, some well-meaning en thusiasts said there would be no more war. And because war has broken out again, a few equally shallow cynics sasert with equal confidence that settled pesos is a delusion and a dream. To those who extemporise a fresh philosophy of his tory to meet the changing telegrams of every twenty-four hours this may be a satisfactory con clusion—but to no others. Not the mere fact of war only, but its causes and conse quences, must be taken into account if we would justly estimate its bearing on the general question of peace. Italy has been the theatre of war for two years past, but who, save the shallowest observers, would say that these events inaugurate a new era of struggle • in which all the nations of Europe will appear in arms once more I Old Peninsular generals and Tory historians of modern Europe may naturally enough indulge and propagate this congenial delusion. But all who really understand what has taken place in Italy, know that these victorious campaigns have done more towards securing the permanent peace of the Continent than any European war for a thou ' sand years. And GsausaLor, who has helped to ' accomplish so much for the cause of peace, is ' well entitled to submit to Europe a project for averting the devastating wars which have arisen " I from " the selfish maladministration of the pri- " waved and powerful classes," and to say that "such a project can no longer be placed among " the dreams and Utopian schemes of sanguine " men."

THE FRENCH POLICY IN ITALY. PARIS, WID3IIBDAY. ••••nnet publishes an article *dad _ _ "French Policy in Italy," and signed by its editorial secretary. This article, which is considered semi-official, oommenoes by energetically repelling the accusa tions brought against the government of the Em peror by those who reproach him for not inter vening in Italy against the revolution, and by those who wish to see him sustain the Italian move ment at all began's. French policy could not, without compromising its moat incontestable prin- oiples and its essential interests, bold either one or the other of the two lines of conduct. In taking part against Italy the Emperor would betray his origin. Be would lose the character he holds from universal suffrage, by which he was elected, and would divest himself of the authority necessary to a sovereign of France for the good of Europe. The more he is equitable to peoples the greater is tho service rendered by the Emperor to the principle of authority. Besides, an intervention could only be a military occupation of the peningula. What would Italy, England, and Europe have said ? They would have looked upon the peninsula, thus protected, as a French Italy. The other attitude was equally impossible and dangerous. It would have made us an accomplice of the revolutionary state of things. It would have caused us to break with Russia, Prussia, and Austria, and have brought us to a general war. The Emperor would thus have changed his rile. Moderator of the revolution, he would become its chief. Pacificator of Europe, he would become its terror. Arbiter in questions of political equilibrium, he would lose the titles of his competency. Repre sentative of national will, he would become a mere party instrument. Thus France could neither support revolutionary intentions nor absolutist reactions in Italy. What line of policy should she follow ? Here the article enters upon considera tion of the political conditions of each of the great powers of Europe, and, having reviewed the state of things in Italy, it draws the conclusion that a congress is possible, and defines the part France would take therein. The article con cludes :—" An organised and powerful Italy is henceforth to the interest of Europe. In cor.se crating it by an act of high jurisdiction Europe would show as much prudence as justice." Yesterday evening the coramisearpgerieral received through the Goldsionises of Orvieto • letter from General °oyes sissismobsig the occupation of the town of Orvieto by the Few& The effect of the extenaioa of the French osestpefiles has been most melancholy. You know how the Mk* peestesioa of Viterbo was effected. The French woe received with resignation in the midst of • dead chum e, and in a town depopulated by emigration. lb, erigraats from the town of Viterbo alone snout to 1,700. Amongst these are artisans in poi Amponstaocce, who have shut up their shops and ermassil these livelihood rather than spin rehab to a ikeninatitai from which they believed themselves to have been freed for ever. The emigrants of the rest of the pro vince of Viterbo and of that of Cameros, which surrounds Rome, amount to 1,500 or 1,600. When this letter reaches you this number will be exceeded, for every day , the number of the emigrants increases. A decree of the commissary-general has provided lodgings for these 3,000 persons, by giving them the convents for their residence. At Orvieto the French general will meet with the same reception as at Viterbo, the wine silence, and the same sub. mission. He will not perhaps find the gates open, though no one dreams of preventing his entrance, but a difference is made between the occupation of Viterbo asd that of Orvieto. It is understood, as regards the former, that *re might be motives of public policy in this me, NA Ve hi resigned in putting faith in the liberating flag of Frame. But for Orvieto, will it be the same? One would think not, and serious indications had strengthened the hope that Orvieto would remain free. They ask the object of this extended military occupation. By what good luck should the priest., who have a marked hatred of everything French, be benefited at the expense of the friendly populatious, who see in the Fres* army a glorious agent of the liberation of Italy? The emigration from Orvieto will not be lees considerable than that from Viterbo. Can any normal state result from an antagonism so marked between a people and its sovereign ? The Pope only enters into deserted towns ; everywhere the authorities that be has instituted are pre ceded by the quittance of the country of all that is intelli gent and energetic in the population. It is sufficient to establish such a state of things. ANCONA, Ocr. 22. A decree has been issued convoking the popular assemblies fur the 4th and sth of November to ♦ote on the question of annexation. THE NEW AUSTRIAN CONSTITUTION. The Merle has the following observations upon the new Austrian constitution : We greatly doubt the intention of the Austrian govern. moot to seriously early out the measures it has just decreed : we remember the difcrent promises and projects of oon stitutiens with which people have been deceived during the last twelve years. The promises are slimy' violated, the projects never realised. We h►ve reason to think that these institutions, for their anthem will not give them the mine of a cunatitntinn, will be fully as vain and deceptive es previous ones. They have only been promulg♦ted to captivate public opinion at the moment the Emperor of Austri► is vainly seeking to draw the Emperor of Russia into a serni-offensive alliance, which may enable him once more to try his fortune in Italy. The sending of General Benedek and the Archdukes Albrecht and William into Venetia gives the concessions, apparently made to public opinion, a meaning which it is imposeible to mistake. HUNGARY. PESTH, OCT. 23 (Evening). This morning the garrison marched out for a review ; General Benedek took leave of the troops, and addressed them in a speech. The proposed illumination of the city did not take place, by desire of General Beuedek, who stated that it would be better to present the costs of the illumination to the army. ROME. ROME, Ocr. 91.

General Panintin personally at tended the Emperor of Austria. In the evening the whole oourt visited the theatre.

Count Thun, Austrian ambassador at St. Peters burg, is present here, but the French ambassador at St. Petersburg is not in Warsaw, as has been reported.

To that my, the deathkoell of your own ambitioe, a terrible response will shortly be given by the three monarchs assembled at Warsaw." The Lego , Lombardo, a tragedy, written by the poet and patriot Guillermo Riceiaoli, was performed at Naples on the 15th, and was received with great applause by a very crowded home. After twenty years of exile, Ricciardi came to Naples to see his country, to oppose annexation, and to get his drama acted.

(NION OM OWN @Wmnem) PARK TOIMIDAT WIXOM Count de Chasseloup Lauliat, the Miinieter of Algeria and the Colonies, has arrived in Paris from Algeria, accompanied by Marshal Castellano, coming from Lyon.. The arrival of Minim! Caetellane, following so closely upon that of Marshal Niel from Toulouse, looks as if the !Emperor were about to hold a superior council of war. Sines writing the above paragraph I learn that all the marshals of Francs, with the exception of Marshal Bosquet, breakfasted with the Emperor at St. Cloud yesterday, and passed several hours with him in the council chamber afterwards. It is given out that one of the subjects discussed in this council was the formation of an army of reserve, but there can be little doubt that eventualities connected with the general state of Europe were brought upon the tapir. Although the newspapers are instructed to make light of the Warsaw meeting, it is quite certain that con siderable anxiety and uncertainty is felt on the subject in the highest quarters. It is reported this evening that some arrests have been effected among the Italians in Parts. It is difficult to conceive any loyal purpose called for the presence in the waters of Gaeta of Admiral Lebarbier de Tinan, with four ships of war. There is a rumour that his mission is to prevent the bombardment of Gaeta, a course which would be most anomalous on the pert of France. Letters state that the admiral is exceedingly rough in his conduct towards the Piedinontese. The telegram front Munich affirming that the representatives of Prussia, Spain, and Portugal at Turin are preparing to leave that capital, does not meet with implicit credence. The news is probable enough as regards Spain, but nothing has been said lately of any Papal demonstration in Portugal. As to Ptuasia, the tone of M. de Schleinitz's despatch to IL Brassier de St. Simon, although severe towards the recent policy of Piedmont, does not indi cate a diplomatic rupture. It is, moreover, diffi cult to reconcile the assertion of the Prussian Ga zette that the cabinets of London and Berlin have come to an agreement on " several great and im portant questions " with the supposition that Pros ila can be seriously hostile to Italy. The article in the Moniteur upon the affairs of Syria is looked upon as serious, because, although it tells nothing new, it shows that the French government is determined to represent the Porte as not only incapable of protecting the Christians, but that its army is actually an accomplice in the out rages perpetrated upon them. These views being officially expressed, few people will, I fancy, expect to see the French evacuate Syria at the end of the stipulated six months. The Bourse has been firmer, without auy parti cular reason being assigned. The Bente rose 15c. for caah, and 20c. for account, closing at &Mr. bc. in each case. Mobilier rose llfr. 25e. The Orleans Railway rose Sir. 75e. ; Northern, 3fr. 75c. ; and Lyons, 2fr. 50c. The other lines were without change. A nephew of the famous Georges Cadoudal writes • long letter to the Sidc/e to complain of the analogy drawn by that journal between the pen• sions granted by Garibaldi to the relatives of Agesilana Milano and the honour* conferred by Louis XVIII. upon the great Chouan cLief. The present M. de Cadoudal argues, and I think he makes out his case, that his uncle was no assassin, and merely conspired to make war upon the First Consul. However, M. Sevin, the principal editor of the Sieele, maintains the parallel complained of. But, apart from this particular subject of contro versy, there can be no doubt that the legitimist organs have not a leg to stand upon when they assert that no regicide was ever honoured by a reigning monarch. The Siiele brings forward the following conclusive instance to the contrary ; Whatever the royalist journals may say, history records more than one precedent of kings conferring honours on assamilia. On the 10th of July, 1584, William of Nassau, Prism of Orange, was assassinated by Balthasar .Genad. This man had cunAded his design to a Jesuit of Treves, who recommended him to communicate it to the Duke of P• 114114 governor of the Low Countries. The Duke of Parma en. °enraged Gerard to airy out his plan. The guardian of the Cordeliers of Tourney, Father Gel - , made no attempt to dissuade him. Gerard was condemned on the 14th July, and executed the next day. Philip IL, whom the Jesuits regarded as a model king, granted letters of nobility to Gararel's family and anampted them from taxes for ever. In this case the amiabiallan was effected and its vietkiskilled. We do not ass whit mabterfuge the royalists can Invent to excuse Ml* IL RUSSIA AND SARDINIA. A letter dated Turin, 21st Oct., thus describe the resell of the Rumen minister : " Prince L6on de Gagarin, charged with the Rus sian Legation in our capital, yesterday presented a note to M. Cavour, in which he officially signifies the recall of the whole Legation. This recall is motified on the ground that the government of King Victor Emmanuel has never taken any notice of the communications and verbal representations which the Court of St. Petersburg thought fit to make to Piedmont respecting everything connected with re cent events, and especially as regards the entrance of Piedmonteae troops into the kingdom of Naples. "M. Cavour, on receiving this communication, immediately telegraphed to the Marquis Sauli, the Sardinian Minister r t St. Petersburg, to demand his passports. This eveat, though expected, has caused rather a painful sensation here. Prince de Gagarin leaves to-morrow for Paris. M. de Gereb aoff, Secretary of Legation, left last night for Waraw." SIGNS OF WAR. A letter from Turin of the 21st says :—" The news of the day is serious, and the government is on the alert. Five new battalions of the National Guard are to be called out, and the period of ser vice of those already under arms is to be prolonged for forty days. As soon as the annexatitie of Naples shall have been officially completed, there will be a levee of 100,000 men throughout the whole of Italy, and it is hoped that there will be an army of 300,000 in line by spring. Tbe 56 in fantry regiments now existing will be dividel into four battalions. Some of the regiments have have at present only two battalions, but a third is in actual course of formation. The 50 battalions of bersagliori are likewise to be put on a complete footing. The army of Garibaldi will also be regu larly organised, and supply the cadres for new regiments. If Austria decides upon action, it is believed that she will not give much time for deliberation, and that her attack will be rapid and vehement. The opinion of the Sardinian govern ment may be seen by the following language of one of its least noticed but most judicious organs, the Piccolo Carriers &Italia : Daring the last three months we have been pointing out the leaflike tendencies cf the Austrian court, and we here never been deceived by its pacific protestations. We repeat to-day on reliable information from Vienna that war is there looked upon as imminent, and that Austna means to play her last card. Althnugh the result of the Warsaw congress may not be wholly favourable to her designs, no one doubts bat th►t she will immediately cross the ilinciu end the Po. We need not be alarmed, but neither must we be mist,. " This language truly represents the feeling which *Lista in all government circles, and the acts of government are quite in keeping with its tenor." TURIN, OCT. The result of the voting in Sicily is almost una nimously in favour of annexation. King Victor Emmanuel has reached Caseelsandro and will arrive at Naples on the 28th The proclamation of the vote will take place the following day. Forty other battalions of the National Guard will be mobilised. THE FRENCH TROOPS IN THE PAPAL STATICS. The news that the French government, yielding to the entreaties of the affrighted inhabitants, had consented not to consign Or►ieto to the tender mercies d the Pope, is unhappily not oonfirmed. On the contrary, General de Cloyon has informed the Jesuits that they are at liberty to resume their functions in that devoted city. The following UNITED STATES AND CANADA. LIVERPOOL, Tcrsoar. The Montreal Ocean Mail Steamship Company's screw steamer North American, Captain Acton, from Quebec on the 13th, arrived hi the Mersey about 5 o'clock this evening, bringing ili; passen gers. A telegraphic summary of her advises has been already published. The New York papers to band are only one day later than those brought by the Persia and the Canadian, and contain nothing of importance, with the exception of the following despatch, an nouncing the arrival of the Prince of Wales at New York on the afternoon of the 11th inst. :—" The Prince of Wales and suite arrived at the Battery at 2 p.m., amid the booming of cannon and cheering of thesande. lie was re ceived by Major Wood and other notables. After reviewing the militia—which he did in colonel's uniform—he prooeeded up Broadway in au open baroucho drawn by six coal - black horses. The most unbounded enthusiasm prevailed. Broadway: was densely packed with human beings of all classes; house windows packed to overflowing; housetops completely covered ; and every available square inch covered. The demonatratiou hens entirely eclipsed all others ; the Atlantic table and Japanese celebrations cannot be compared with it. Half a million people lined Broadway, and there was a splendid military display. The prince looked well, and was apparently in good spirits, continu ally bowing to the people. The weather wits fine —a lovely day. Seats sold on Broadway 4 from 5 dole. to 20 doll. each. It war a grand sight to see the waving of handkerchiefs. There was a good display of British flags." The municipal election iu Baltimore on the 10th resulted in the return of the reform candidate for Mayor by an overwhelming majority. There wares few additional details of the lora of the Counaught. A Boston telegram of the 10th says " When the Minnie Schiffer arrived at he , . wharf immediate steps were taken by the agents of the Galway Steamship Company iu this city to relieve the Inuits of the passengers. They were furnished with food and clothes of every description it once. Those bound out of the city were freely furnished with railway tickets to their destination, and those remaining hero with boarding houses and money. Everything that was possible was promptly and cheerfully June by the agents. Captain Leitch, officers, and engineers will leave for England by the Canada, next Wednesday. The stewards, sailors, and firemen will go out by the Glasgow, sailing on the 13th." Later advises from liavannali had been received, but they were quite unimportant. The sugar market was unchanged.
