The receptions of GARIBALDI himself have hardly been more unanimous, cordial, and joyful. We remember nothing approaching to it, except that first burst of overwhelming joy with which the Milanese welcomed the two Monarchs after the Austrians had evacuated their city; and when the uncontrollable emotions of the liberated Italians deprived, it was said, even Louis NAPOLEON himself for the moment of his self-con trol. VICTOR EMMANUEL is, also, a man of iron nerves, but he was too much of a man to witness unmoved the hearty, kindly, hopeful, confiding, exulting acts and utterances of the thou ' sands who, in their southern capital, greeted their new and their trustworthy mon arch. For a week or a fortnight previously the event had been anxiously looked for, and when the day came, and royal weather with it, the whole population seemed to turn out, not merely to see, but to shower their bouquets or to shout their monarch of their rho!Ze. 7elcome to the Many parts of the city were attually abandoned, all crowding to the points at which they could do honour to the KING. " Housetops were filled with several hundred thou sand persons, as if Naples had been turned inside out." The bay was crowded with boats hovering around the Royal barg e, and on the KING'S land anew no bounds. Long live King VICTOR . x,IIMANUEL—King, honest man !—King of United Italy—resounds from tens of thousands of voices ; those most important of all politicians on such occasions—the ladies—doing their part most fully ; a plain proof that even Italian priests and confessors dare not attempt to instil their re actionary sentiments into female ears in Italy. Indeed, the *ecular clergy are to a large extent loyal to the people's cause ; it is their superiors, the bishops, and upwards to the chief bishop, who anathematise the KING, and all who wish him to reign over them.

Instead of an architect, the Commis sioners of the Exhibition nominated an Engineer to preside over the labours of its fabrication—and that Engineer, the same enterprising gentleman who had already distinguished himself down at the ex treme eastern corner of South Kensington by the botching together of those audacious iron and wooden hutches, aptly designated by Mr. GODWIN, of the Builder (and the name has stuck them ever since), the " Brompton Boilers." Capt. FOWKES, however, of the Royal Engineers, has—this at least ought, in simple justice, to be acknowledged, in his regard unhesitatingly—shown a decided advance in his later achievement. " Well he might !" many will doubtless be disposed to interject here : but In p e a e ss va b t y er th u e more pena ou ll ca e p u ti re s ld c - riti we c r s m of id t e h as is , w Gr e e w at ill in reference righteference and t proper in h owhathas untilte w n ay ow been of any possible subordination of the art of archi tecture to the science of engineering. We will look at the capacities of the new Build ing—and then in regard to these, at least if in regard to nothing else, we shall find reason to admire and wonder. A glance down the vast cen tralna o ve, r hBtoOe Western feetinlenttaft: Will omu almostndere of itherthe Eastern itself suffice. Besides which, at the central point of ;,,_ tersection, in the very core or heart of the structure, there stretches north and south across the middle of the Nave, the Central Transept, 635 feet from end to end—the Central Transept being flanked at either extremity of the Nave with a Transept here to the East, there to the West, running parallel to it, and, of course (like the Central Transept itself), at right angles to the Nave. Nave and Transepts all of them being 100 feet high, and all having, at the least, a width of 85 feet. Perched up aloft, more over, there is the mile and half of Upper Galleries with a width varying from 25 to 50 feet through out. It has been calculated, moreover, that the iron employed in the building of this vast structure embraces among it " 332 square columns of 12 inches in-diameter for the Nave and Transepts, 321 eight inch round columns, and 14912-inch square columns for the gallery ; 138 eight-inch square clerestory columns, and 160 10-inch square columns, support ing the floors of the picture-galleries ; with 62 round columns for supporting the roofs of the glass courts," And by one of those eccentric little fancies with which mere arithmeticians indulge themselves by way of illustrating any more than ordinary aggregate, it has been remarked that " If all the columns were put end to end they would extend from the Exhibition building either eastward as far as the London Docks, or westward as far as Kew, or northward as far as Hampstead, or south ward to the Sydenham Crystal Palace." Then, in regard to the mere weight of the iron used in the construction of this singular edifice, it is sure ly something remarkable to know for certain that as many as 4,000 tons altogether are there in the shape of girders, shoes, &c.—to say nothing of a whole 1,000 tons of iron additional for the ribs and co lumns and girders of the domes above ! These same domes being 250 feet high and 160 feet in diameter, and, consequently, the largest ever known to have been constructed. As we have been lately reminded, in fact, by an historical computation, to the effect, that " The dome of the Parthenon is 142 feet in dia meter, and 10 feet high ; the dome in the baths of Caracaila was 111 feet in diameter ; Brunelleschi's , at Florence, is 139 feet in diameter, and 133 feet high ; the dome of St. Peter's is 158 feet in dia meter, and 268 feet high, from the external plinth ; and the dome of St. Paul's is 112 feet in diameter, by 215 feet high." Turning, however, from the building itself, and reverting again for a moment to the ceremonies of an inaugural character that took place there on May-day, it was surely but strictly in keeping with the scale upon which everything else there was conducted, when we find that there were in the orchestra 2,000 singers, male and female, and 400 instrumentalists. Namely, in regard to the latter,l4B violins, 50 violas, 45 violin cellos, 45 double basses, 6 piccolos, 6 flutes, 10 oboes, 10 clarionets, 12 bassoons, 12 horns, 6 cor nets, 6 trumpets, 9 trombones, 3 ophicleides, 4 ser pents, 4 bombardens, 4 euphoniums, 12 side-drums, 3 sets of kettle. drums, and, together with triangles, cymbals, and so forth, the Big Drum expressly made for the great HANDEL Festival. Without remem brance of that rolling diapason of sound from the orchestra on May-day, we close for a while our running comments upon the mere Statistics of the Exhibition. only capita t would -svinine.

This is the construction almost all the great leading principles ness in emancipating the alBl for theirslam- rebel non,. n". Those We must now drop the old expression " The army of the Potomac." Our readers must now look out for intelligence from two great and hardly con nected a rmies—the army before Yorktown, arid that before the little village of inth, important only as the junction of two intersecting railways. The two great Federal armies and the opposed Con federate armies are distant from each other in a direct line not less than seven hundred miles; the Northern communications with the capital are all quite open ; but the clever seizure of the railway by General MITCHELL has completely severed the two Confederate armies from all intercourse with each other, except indeed by very tardy and cir cuitous routes. This will compel BEAUREGARD to rely on the country south of him, which is little qualified to supply his wants. The army opposed to him is supplied from the wealthy and populous .North-west States, and will probably soon recruit tself after the severe check it has received. It will •obably, however, find that the works thrown up Corinth, where no gunboats can approach, are not '•ie carried without a severe struggle, if they Irried at all. To this point, therefore, where T and BUELL are pitted against BEAUREGARD, k i w ,pdd i er t wc h otnii solieitude on the arrival of each tele tnhg the thi news under s aclsoom, Commodore f no some adorneo t seriousFOOTS, oaro TfEr bat o,ma nitd t , e i as , and army 'under General PoPE, who are ducing the forts on the Mississippi, and they have succeeded, will turn Genbral D'S left flank. 1113'Catill ea 1 -- "4 and M'DowELL will be able separately or unitedly to fall upon Richmond, while the chief Federal army in Virginia confronts M'CLELLAN, remains to be seen. It is evident that the Confederates do not mean to surrender the Premier State without a severe struggle. The chief part of the news Which arrived yester day consists merely of rumours, and when the direct statements we receive become every day less and less reliable through the restrictions put on the press by Government, it is useless to endeavour to to extract truth, or even probabilities, from in , mours. Even the positive assertion that a despatch of General BEAUREGARD had been intercepted, whose contents were furnished, was, it is now said, false ; the despatch is affirmed to be a forgery ! Nothing but the utmost suspicion and vigilance can guard against imposition in the study of news from Northern sources. We cannot, however, say that that from the South is much more trust worthy. It is only now that we begin fairly to understand the o f the groat Federal check at Pittsburg Landing. LEES' NEWS. MADRID, MAY 4 (Evening).

Beauregard's intercepted despatch, the contents of which were sent to Europe per Hibernian, is LOW supposed to be a forgery. The New York ',tribune says its believed in some quarters that th e F ederal governent is disposed to release the Americans arrested at Tangiers. The Confederate government has made a requisi tion on the slaveowners of Prince George and Sur rey counties for one half of their negroes, to erect fortifications at Williamsburg, for the protection of Yorktown in the rear. M. Mercier'i visit to Richmond still causes much speculation. The Richmond Examiner states that the object of M. Mercier's visit has not definitely transpissed red, but that he is reported to have unofficially expre great interest to ascertain what co mmercial treati: ., s the Confederate government was disposed to ma ke with France. " The Southern pe lople," treaty secur says the R ing to Franc e ichmond Ex-1 aminer," would appaud a an equal right with Southern vessels in the carry , ing trade to Southern ports, providing France would raise the blockade." The Richmond Despatch says that M. Mercier has opened negotiations with the Confederate Secre taries of State. The Confederate Congress has determined not to adjourn until t termination of M. Mercier's mis sion. Any kind he of arrangement will be made with the Confederate President. The Richmond Despatch consi ders this to be a petics.. . , __,............. v.- - E.,.....0 nf the indepen dence of the Confederate States.

Mr. John Bright has addressed a letter to the New York Chamber of Commerce, in which he ob serves that there is no country in which men have been so free and properous as in America ; and that there is no political constitution in existence in the preservation of which the human race is so deeply interested as the American constitution. Mr. Bright is sure that an overwhelming majority of the Eng lish people will rejoice at the restoration of the Union and the success of the Federals.

THE BANK ROBBERY AT GENOA.—A correspon dent writing from Genoa, on t he Ist, gives the following d e t a ils of the extraord inar y bank robbery already nounced by telegraph :—This city has been thrown into th e greatest excitement b y a robbery,perfectly unparalleled for its magnitude an d audacity, which has just com mitted on M. B. Parodi and Son, the well-known bankers. To-day at half-past one o'clock a band of armed mitu- en, a b o ut twenty in number, entered M. Parodi's bank, s ated in Strada Nuova, one of the most frequented tho roughfares, and overpowered and tied down to their desks all the clerks, who were seated in one large room w ith their empl o y ers, these latter being treated in the same m anner; and while some of the intruders held their captives still with loaded pistols and drawn knives held t o their throats, the others coolly ma de a c l ear sweep of all the notes and cash within r each. The su m taken amounts to 735,000 f., Messr balances on Parodi having un f or tunately the habit of keeping their own premises in preference to depositing them at the was going on, two or Bank. While the process of rifling ened to enter the bank, and were three customers Kapp secured and gagged by the burg l a rs, who after having sa fes, left the office quictly emptied out the tills and by twos and _threes, i n th© sam e way as they came, so as not to excite suspicion in the streets. So complete was the success of the whole manoeuvre that the alarm was not given till some time atter the last of the robbers had disap peared, who , one of the clerks succeeded in f reein g him self from his fastenings, and ran out to inform the neigh bours of the fact. It must be unders ood that the o ffi c e is situated on the top floor of M. Paredi's palazzo, and quite at the back, so that even if any of the clerks had had the time or courage to shout for help, their cries would probably have passed unnoticed. M. Parodi, the head of the firm, is at present in the hands of his medi cal atteniant, his frame having suffered a hemsost severe feeble, ock from the effects of the outrag e, and, as old and it is feared that the consequences may be fatal.

A large tax-spending, and through its partisan seizing hold of any agitation which could annoy the Go vernment. The country quite understands now that the fightis not for education but for money, whether the education be given or not. We all see now that the concessions made by the Government have been all in one direction. Their object has been to in sure to the former recipients of the public money that they shall continue to receive the same sum, or more, although they still continue to secure the at tendance only, not the instruction of the children. One thing is apparent in these, to us, almost revolting discussions it is, that they all turn on how much money the school will get. How much teaching the poor children will get, we hardly hear of ; it is all whether managers or teachers of one kind or another will get as much money as before. We shall not be surprised to see a good deal of the same kind of pauper clamour to-night. Pity the managers, the teachers, the pupil teachers, will be probably the cry. We could not have supposed a few years' protective bounties and State-nursing for education would so soon have deprived really respectable and worthy persons of all self-reliance, and induced them to become, on behalf of education, as they profess, but really on behalf of themselves, claimants for educational out-door relief. In truth, the really poor and needy districts get nothing under the old system, or under any of the codes. Our whole Privy Council system is one of helping the rich and sending the poor empty away. Where there are people who can subscribe, there the Government lavishes its favours ; where men are only poor, the Government does nothing. Yet the recipients, on this precious system, move heaven and earth for fear of losing their bounties, when the State merely says, " at least show work worth paying for !" Again, we warn hon. members that the country is opening its eyes —is beginning to see that educational grants in aid, mean little more than creating hosts of Government stipendiaries ; in fact, the system is one which in the long run will fill all the country with depen dents of the Central Government.

At the commencement of the sitting of the Chain ber of Deputies, on the Ist, M. de Schmerling read the following Imperial message :—" At the moment the Reichsrath is about to commence this constitu tional discussion of the Budget of 1862, and the finan cial laws connected therewith, and when especially the proposals of the Government will be discussed, which have for their object to provide for the wants of the State and the settlement of financial ques tions, his Majesty has charged his Ministers to an nounce to the two Chambers of the Reichsrath that the declaration made on the 2d of July, 1861, to the Chamber of Deputies, that for the maintenance of the Constitution, and for the exact execution of the laws, the Ministers hold themselves equally responsible towards the representatives of the empire, was made by the express authority of his Majesty the Emperor; that his Majesty the Em peror has not only given his assent to the principle of Ministerial responsibility, with the restrictions fixed on the 2d July, 1861, but, moreover, the Em peror has wished it to be stated that, with the recog nition of that principle resulting already from the publication of the Constitution, the enactment con tained in the Cabinet Order of 2uth August,lB6l, and according to which the Ministry is responsible only and solely to the Monarch, and that it is relieved from all responsibility towards any other political autho rity, ceases naturally to be in vigour, insomuch as it is not in accordance with the above-mentioned principle of Ministerial responsibility. His Majesty has, moreover, consented that in due time the Go vernment shall take the initiative of a project of law on the responsibility of Ministers maintaining trinciples proclaimed in the sitting of the Chamber of Deputies of the 2d July, 1861." After the reading of the imperial message, Deputy Wieser mounted the tribune, and said that his Ma jesty, by solemnly proclaiming that the responsi bility of the Ministers towards the Chambers was a necessary consequence of the Constitution, and that the enactment of the 21st August, 1861, was not in accordance with that principle, deserved again the gratitude of the representatives of the Empire. (cheers), and consequently he proposed to the Cham ber three rounds of cheers in honour of his Majesty. The Chamber at once complied, and the sitting broke up amidst prolonged cheering. ROY AL ITALIAN OPERA• This evening Bellini's opera " La Sonnambula" is to be performed for the first time this season, Adelina Patti sustaining the part of Amina, and Gardoni, Elvino. On Saturday, owing to the in disposition of Madame Csillag, the part of Fides, in the " Prophete," was sustained by Madame Nantier Dithee with very great success. As to Tamberlik's impersonation of John of Leyden it was as magnificent as ever. Nothing could be more 1 impressive than his singing in the coronation scene ; in fact, throughout the whole of the opera he car ried the audience with him, and at the fall of the curtain the applause was loud and enthusiastic. BEE MAJESTY'S TREATB.E. On Saturday a second representation of " Semi ramide " was given, with the sisteis Marchisio as the Assyrian Queen and Arsace. Carlotta exhibited none of the tremor that ah as now and then observ able on the occasion of her first appearance on Thursday last, and the Assyrian Queen was her self in every note, action, and expression. The cavatine, " Bal raggi3," was executed with skill, accuracy, and fluency. Her school is of the best Italian character —that best calcuThere was lated to give effect to Rossini's bri lliant scoring. sion and power in her scenes with Assur (M. Gassier), who played and sang the part with much intelligence and force. Mdlle. Barbara Marchisio's Arsace, despite the remembrances of Angri and Alboni,was an excellent and accomplished specimen of acting, and of true contralto singing. Her first air, " Qniel giorno," showed her deep notes to ad vantage, and the favourable impression was deep ened and fixed by the execution of the duo with Assur, "Bella imago." It was studied and propo nee in style and character. " Giorno d'orrore, was encored. The house was briliantly attended.
