(See Sun April 19, 28, May 16, & July 19.) -- - Perhaps we are to have another lull in American action, since news three nays later, and reaching to ten or twelve days after the battle of Antietam Creek, tells of no further movements on either side. Probably both armies have had enough of it for the present ; each claims the battle as a victory, the one because it effected its retreat without molestation, the other because it compelled retreat. It may well be, indeed, that each gained its immediate object. The Confederates would have preferred to remain in Maryland, because it furnished them with abun dant supplies, but finding that the people did not rise, as had been expected, on behalf of the South, they saw the game was up, and resolved to return to Virginia. M'CLELLAN'S prompt march on them compelled them to fight their way back, and it now appears that with but 60,000 men, to double, probably, that number of Federals, they got away securely_ They doubtless lost a vast number of , men as well as their assailants, but it does seem probable that, including the spoils of Harper's Ferry, they laid in an ample supply of military stores at the Federal expense. We have a little indication by this mail of the manner in which the conditional and procrastinating proclamation of emancipation has been received in the North. The Gover nors of all the Free States proper appear to have accepted it—they determine to support the PRESIDENT'S " constitutional authority," and as they add to this, " approval of the proclamation," it would seem that they regard it as constitutional to deal thus with the slave States. The PRESI DENT, more like a Prime Minister than a Sove reign, h as e xpressed his own op i n i on a l so. H e i s at least so far popular as to have been serenaded at New York. On this ccea4ion he spoke of his proclamation, but certainly with some expression of doubt as to his own infallibility. The procla mation was issued after " full deliberation," and under a " h ea vy sense of responsibility." This all will believe, for the personal integrity and desire to do right of ABRAHAM LINCOLN is believed in by all parties. But he " trusted in GOD he had made no mistake," while he left it to men to judge of his proclamation, and to act on it as they pleased. To add to the elements of uncer tainty, the Chicago Emancipation Committee have have published a letter, addressed to them by the PRESIDENT only nine days before the proclamation was issued, in which he stated that such a proclama tion would be inefficacious if issued, and that aims put into the hands of the slaves would only fall into the hands of their masters ! There has been evidently great hesitation, and fluctuation of opinion, in the councils at Washington, and the 'result appears to have been a proclamation, adapted t to Secure the warm adhesion of all the hot Union re ' en and Abolitionists of the North, at the coming ele3ti " 3 ; to carry, at least, all the Free State go vernors with thpossibilitye Of it; and to irritate the South without ita being put in force there. The Border States, Maryland and Kentucky, have already began to dispi, their hostility to it, and of course the planting States will receive it, with mingled derision and wrath. But what will the North Say to Mr. GLAD STONE'S personal recognition of the South. It was expressed in connection with stic'h kindly and apo logetic sentime n t s i n regar d to the Nurth i tse lf, that, taken all together, the Unionists will h ave great difficulty in censuring the whole. When they find him, not as many of us have done, think ing it well for a vait continent to be divided—at least of no advantage to England that it should be —when they hear the ►arm friend of negro eman cipation expecting it rather from the divided than the United States—when they learn that the Govern ment neutrality has been sincerely carried out, and that its effects have been much more favourable to the North than to the South—when they read his excuses even for Northern angry feelings towards England, and his exhortations to us scribes of the press to abstain from all irritating language in return when they look at all this they must feel that he only expresses a cool and friendly judgment when he says, " We may have our opinion about slavery; we may be for or against the South ; but there is no doubt that JEFFERSON DAVIS and other leaders of the South have made an army ; they are making, it appears, a navy; and they have made, what is more than either—they have made a nation." Mr.GLADSTONE regards the contest therefore, henceforth, as " not doubtful." What ever, therefore, it may be prudent for Mr. GLAD• STONE and the Government to do, so far as the opinion of the leading English Minister are known, they pretty clearly recognise the nationality of the S3uth. We entirely agree with Mr. GLADSTONE, as of course all Englishmen will do, on our policy of neutrality—and, while we acknowledge that re cognition of the South might hasten the termina tion of the war, we can hardly think the South are disposed yet to accept it on the only terms on which we ought to offer it. If they conquer for themselves the power to enslave the whole of North America, from the Isthmus of Pa nama to the Potomac and the Ohio, which is their real object, if they place themselves, even in a position, as the majority in the South wish, to reopen the African slave trade, we of course shall be unable to deny accomplished facts. But, till we see the South shut up to its original Slave States, and deprived of the power of extending slavery over free soil, England ought to take no step spontaneously. Both our national honour and our national feeling, forbid any such recognition as facilitates the spread of slavery, and the renewal of the slave trade. Yesterday brought to a happy close the proceed ings of the British Association for the Advance ment of Science in 1862, down at Cambridge. Other assemblages of this body elsewhere may, in pre ceding years, have been more important in their results, but there is not ono of them that can be pronounced to have proved, in all essential respects, more successful. There has not been visible, in any one of the sections, a single hitch throughout. Much of this smooth working, doubtless, is attri butable to the excellence of the general organisa tion acquired by annual practice. A great deal of it is owing to the earnest and cordial co operation of the local authorities, in furthering the designs and in facilitating the arrangements of the Association. It is from a vivid recognition of this latter fact that the President's closing speech, every successive year, may be pronounced, for the most part, to be purely complimentary. Gathered together as the promoters and members and amateur visitors of the Association were, in this present year of grace, as already upon two previous occasions, at that ancient seat of learning, the University of Cambridge—Professor WILLIS, in his closing speech yesterday, had reason to distribute his acknowledgments more widely than there would have been any opportunity for, had the meeting taken place at some merely fashion able or manufacturing town, such, let us say, as Leamington or Manchester. Thanks in effect had to be accorded not merely to a local Committee and the local Corporation, but, as was happily inevitable uuder tho oirounlFitantspo, fa all kinds of learned bodies making up together the glory of the Uni versity of Cambridge. College after College— Trinity Hall, Sidney, Sussex, Caine, Clare, King's, Greville—had to receive the hearty and unaffected thanks of the Association. From the Master of each to the Cook—not an official was forgotten by the President. " The feast of reason and the flow of soul I " vied for grateful recollection among the participants with what some wag—was it Tom HOOD or Tom INGOLDSBY ?—called " The feast of turtle and the flow of punch I " Even the gentleman who had sent microscopes and various other apparatus for exhibition received an acknowledgment of their thoughtful courtesy. Various railway companies came in for the like amiable marks of recognition—the Great Eastern, tho Great Northern, and the London and North- Western. Not that the directors of these com panies had done more towards to the advancement of the interests of the Association than afford cer tain facilities for the travelling to and fro of mem bers, and for the more convenient issue of return tickets. Public characters, celebrated statesman, famous authors, renowned artists, orators, and philosophers can travel free of all cost upon the public railways in one or two other countries. But magnificent recognitions of public service like this are not in our way. We manage things here—in this mercantile community—very differently. L. S. D. is a symbol so potent everywhere in England, Ireland, Scotland, and Berwick-upon-Tweed, that it is capable of sobering the most ardent enthu siasm—even when the acclamations that enthusi• asm awakens are at their loudest. L. S. D. being, in point of fact, to the modern Briton, what S.P.Q.R. was, of yore, to the ancient Roman ! Awful initials—all powerful—all conquering : in scribed upon our every banner—subduing all things to themselves ! And so, it is purely as a matter of course, and without a qualm of regret, that we note the restriction of the invitations vouchsafed in the last instance here mentioned, to the facilities of transit Up and Down, and the freer issue of return tickets. The thought of anything more than that being ever dreamt of, never once passing through any one's imagination. For what he and his fel low-labourers in the recent doings of the Associa tion have received, the President is, and acknow ledges himself to be, truly thankful. To colleges, for the loan of their halls and lecture-rooms, and for the gift of the succulent and refreshing out pourings of their ample butteries—each a sort of architectural cornucopeia. To the Mayor and Town Council, for the use of their ancient Guildhall. To the University collectively, for the free access accorded at all times during the sittings of the Association to the Schools, to the Senate, and especially to the Library, that noble hall of letters, There s e t r e e a , (strange o ver the porch of which might b e i nscr ib e d t h e t h ree magical appropriate words, d ec l ar i ng t h at he i n age when th e light ning his is man's the sunbeam i s his t s it re t — o z • remember ivter this h diisgt is i i a s fierydragon, and messenger, and w the h m engine i i por trait painter)—there, in that noble library at Cambridge, where still stands upon a pedestal in the year of the Redemption, 1862, that antique statue of the goddess CERES, at the foot of which the votaries of Paganism were wont to celebrate with so much pomp and cerem on y the ancient mys teries of Eleusis. Gathered together during these last few days near that marble effigy of one of the long reverenced Powers (t - i fliey \ we re for centuries beli eve d t o be, ono of the Dii Majores of a Dea d Religion —were the Christian Philolophers of the nineteenth century since the data of the Cruci fixion. The simple reflection that it was near that very statue of CERES that the assembling together this year of the members of the British Association took place, realises to us perhaps as vividly as anything could, what reasons we, the true Ancients of the earth (as some philosophic thinker has wisely remarked) have for gratitude to Heaven —as those to whose enjoyment and consolation have been confided, in their very plenitude, the benefits of Civilisation and the blessings of Christianity. Nothing could possibly be in better taste or more admirably to the purpose than Earl RUS SELL'S reply to the Italians, the nine Milanese gentlemen, who, assuming to themselves the respon sibility of being the interpreters of the feelings of their fellow-countrymen, have presented to the noble Earl, her Britannic MAJESTY'S Foreign Secretary, a symbolical statue sculptured in Carrara Marble by an Italian artist, one—CARLO RomANO ! Than the Foreign Secretary's reply nothing, we repeat, could by possibility be more graceful in every syllable. Lord RUSSELL does not arrogate to himself, or to his colleagues, one iota of merit in reference to their Italian sym pathies, and, if it can be dignified with the term, what might also be called their Italian policy. That policy—so far as it has gone—has but ono single claim to anything like approbation from the Italians themselves, the priceless merit, however, under the circumstance, of being absolutely passive and silent, a policy of avowed Non-Intervention. After freeing Lombardy by the sweep of his sword, the French EMPEROR was the first to proclaim for Italy, at the close of the campaign of Magenta and Solferino, the Policy of Non-Intervention. Eng land, cordially adopting that principle of Non-In tervention, has carried.it out, let us say, just a trifle more literally, perhaps, than the author of the Treaty of Villafranca. England has, at any rate, not maintained on Italian soil one single regiment of her soldiers, to say no thing of an entire division. England has neither ac tually nor virtually " forbidden the banns" between the North and South of the Peninsula. Non-inter vention, so far as the military and naval and diplo- matic forces of the Government have been concerned, has presided over the Councils of that Government, in regard to Italy, as a living and acting principle. The British Government has allowed Italy to ac complish for herself the great task of her emanci pation ; and to strive to realise this inestimable boon of political independence through the simple device, if she can but grasp it, of Unification. As O'CoNNELL dinned into the ears of his compatriots so often (meaning nothing all the while)—" Who would be frin, themselves must strike the blow !" Acting in Italy's regard, literally upon this principle of Non-intervention, Lord RUSSELL in his admirable letter to the Italians (given else where in our impression of this evening, with the rest of the Correspondence relating to the presenta tion to him of the above-mentioned Testimonial, observes most becomingly, " The only merit I can claim, in conjunction with my col leagues in the Government, is that of having expressed openly, constantly, and successfully, the opinion that Italy should not be interfered with in the great task which, to the immortal glory of her sons, she undertook." And the noble lord frankly adds, with a spontaneous recognition on his part, as Foreign Secretary for England, of one undoubted good service done to Italy by the French Emperor (in direct violation, it ought to be remem bered, too, of the now vaunted system of Non-Inter - vention)—" It has been her (that is Italy's) good fortune that in the commencement of this work She was aided by the powerful arwiet4 or the .4 the FRENCH. Her own fortitude, her own mode ration, and her own patience have been conducive ;1 . 1 ; 4:U ~ 0 7 ( 7., • 4,4 ‘ 1 Cie te „ r • - A, (• ' THE SUN. LONDON, THURSDAY, OCT. 9, 1862. LIVES of EMINENT .

That is, in truth and in brief, the gist of this last letter from the hand of Earl RUSSELL. It is a timely missive addressed to the Italians by the Foreign Secretary of England, at a moment not the least opportune that could have been selected : a missive containing within it words of generous reminder and of manly encouragement. It would be very unwise for Mr. COWPER, or any of the Park authorities, to resort to extreme mea sores on account of the misbehaviour of a knot of ignorant priest-ridden Irishmen. If these fellows are so blinded by a fanaticism, which we confess leads their betters to play the fool, also, in higher assemblies, that is no reason why the sane common sense working-men of London should be denied one of the most useful and justly-prized privileges of Englishmen—perfect freedom of meeting and of speech. Let the Irish, indeed, who do not know the use of freedom, be prevented frem abusing it to the annoyance of others. Let Cardinal WISE MAN teach his clients that the English do not use, and will not tolerate the shillelagh argument; that kings and governors here have given up physical force against heretics, and will certainly not allow a mob to retain it—but there let interference stop. His "Eminence," we mean of the "Red Hat," not of the " Redan," may inform his semi civilised bands, that they are quite at liberty to select another part of the park, and extol the POPE and ANTONELLI to their hearts' content, but that they must keep their meeting to themselves, and let the friends of liberty for all—for Italian Catholics as well as for Irish Catholics—have their meeting in peace, in the place selected for them. We must frankly confess that we aro exceedingly jealous of any interference with these, generally ex temporised meetings of the people. We like them. We are confident that they are real advantage to them. We have gone up to many of the parties at different times, when some orator has been address ing them, and we can assure our readers that the Park congregations of Sunday may almost be taken as a test of the quality of the orator. If you see a gathering unusually large, it is almost certain you will find the speaker a man of more than ordi nary ability. Uneducated enough in all probability; but, with endowments of wit, fancy, humour, enthusiasm, homely logic, or some quality which assures you that, trained in a higher circle, he would have been much better listened to in the House of Commons, than great numbers wl o afflict both the House and the reporters. The thousands who throng the Parks may be safely entrusted with the charge of the orators who address them. It is the speaker, far more than the subject who attracts them ; and quite as much as the rest of us, they will desert the prosy drone for the man who fixes attention. But are we then to have the park filled with the advocates of all the crotchets and " ism:" of the day ? Shall anarchy be preached, and blasphemy be rampant without check ? We aro not prepare d to volunteer as the high priests of either anarchy or blasphemy, but as to all the crotchets and the " isms," the more of them the merrier, We should say. Let all be protected, while they spout awa y or congr ega t e , p eacea bly ; i n d ee d we hold it to be a upon them, positive a d vantage t h at t h e peop l e s hould hear all the noti ons t h at any are di spose d t o discuss in their presence, and f orm th e i r judgment Even su c h exercises of their alitacti. niT_lth as We may deride m o b oratory, are b e tt er th an mental stagnation. Anythi ng i s pre ferable to sl ee p, and if the speaker has brain% -to get an audience, by will go home I all means let him h tve it. They talking about something beyond their tools and their daily labour. We hold that these extempo rised inartificial meetings are a useful part cf popular education. If we could, we would increase their number rather than cheek them. As to the blasphemy, infidelity, and sedition, there is really little of it. Of the last we never heard any, of the infidelity not much; and on one occasion, when a sceptical orator was flourishing away his stock difficulties to a small knot of young men, a very homely looking fustian jacket came up, and in our hearing coolly asked the hearer some such posing questions on his own creed as would have done credit to any debater, and very soon turned the laugh against him. We really did think —classical readers must excuse us—of SOCRATES and the Sophists. So far as we have observed, the audiences do not relish blasphemy. They are shrewd enough to enjoy a popular, yet acute argu ment leading to a conclusion which the Convocation who condemned the Essays and Reviews would, doubtless, say conducted to blasphemy. But con structive blasphemy, like constructive treason, won't do. We rather think that any orator who reviled the Deity or the Saviour would be soon quitted, though if he exhibited cleverly the contradictions, real or apparent, of the Athanasian Creed, as we have heard done, the hearers would be interested. To differ from a forged creed, however, or even from the worthy ST. ATUANASIUS himself, is not exactly blasphemy. If 80, we Coq* many Chnrnhmen, well reputed of, are guilty of the crime. As to sedition and anarchy, we were almost going to say we should be glad of a specimen of it. We are got so wonderfully quiet, politically, now, that we seem as if our political pulse were almost gone. There is no disposition amongst the populace now to press even for their rights. A lecturer for uni versal suffrage would have no doubt the sympathy of his audience, but the topic would not get him hearers if his abilities did not. " Every man a voter" is very good doctrine, no doubt, but every man a shilling or two more a week would be a much more popular topic. In any case Mr. COWPER would be wise not to be a Hyde-park SIDMOUTII, and not to attempt in any backhanded way to restore, autocratically, Six Acts legislation. Deal summarily and decidedly with all club men, headbreakers, molesters of quiet health seeksrs, and even with gratuitous disturbers of those who wish to listen to any of the Park orators; but be cautious of intermeddling with one of the most harmless and often one of the most beneficial of English recreations—that of listening to a public speaker. Repress physical violence at once—no man, woman, or child ought to be in danger in the Parks ; but meet error by truth, and folly by wis dom, if the error and the folly are worthy of no - tice. Let our Park-going class learn like all the rest of us by free discussion. Let them have this practical training to meet in crowds, as they gene rally do, without disturbance ; let foreigners still admire that strong common sense which makes even uneducated Englishmen respecters of the law, and if Irish Popery will send its scum to England, let it be taught that it shall know and keep its place, and net achieve the Papal triumph of silenc ing English freedom of speech in the working classes more than amongst honourable members— in the Parks more than in the House of Commons. Let Mr. CowrEß act as a Sergeant-at-Arms in the Park, not as a Col. PRIDE. KENSINGTON MUSEUM. CONVERSAZIONE OF THE SOCIETY OF ARTS, Last evening this society again held a reunion within the walls of the Museum, chiefly for the purpose of a farewell meeting to the various distinguished foreigners who will of tINa (One. .r as well as a parting courtesy to its numerous supporters and commissioners. Owing to the post ponement of the above event scarcely as many of our notabilities are in town as were expected, but the invitation was amply responded to from every other quarter, so that shortly after ten o'clock two thousand persons, at least, must have assembled on the occasion. The sufficient space, the thorough ventilation, and the admirable lighting of the Museum, by means of continuous lines of gas parallel to the corners of the several rooms which sufficed to render distinct the minutest ob ject in their cases—supplied advantages for such a meeting, which it would be difficult to rival. We consider this occasion appropriate for a double congratulation. We think the society, in the first place, is to be complimented upon the good taste of the various reunions it has held during the period of the Exhihition as a means of bringing into personal contact most of its leading foreign and native supporters, and thereby strengthening and diffusing the enlightened spirit the event engenders—and we think it is to be complimented secondlyupon the perfect successwhich has attended its truly axcellent conception of associ ating with the Exhibition the present display of the Museum—enlarged, as it is, by a " Loan Collection," in futile and fine art which is beyond all question the most valuable that was ever yet assembled. As it is quite possible that in the su perior attraction of the year's great event, the un usual claims of this collection may have been in a measure overlooked even by those who are most interested in the peculiar arta which it illus trates, we feel it our duty to announce that it will close simultaneously with the doors of the greater gallery—and that but a fortnight is there. fore left us to take advantage of an enjoyment which may never again be offered. With due acknowledgments of course to the various contributors to this collection, we certainly think it a most felicitous conception of the Society, to place side by side with the unrivalled display of the practical and fine art of the present, this most perfect exhibi tion of the fine art of the past. Separated only by a few yards, and capable of being inspected on the same day, here are placed the evi deuces of the power and progress of the artistic mind of Europe, which really seem on a slight reflection to be mutually essential to a just estimate. - Without the knowledge that the one affords, we should be almost incapable of appre ciating the starting points of art in the middl e an d recent ages—just as much as, without the other, w e should want the data for deciding to what immediate heights of excellence fine art especially has reached. The two collections, in fact, pl ace before us in the most striking manner the practical records of art history up t o our own immediate time. To the general student, there fore, as well as to she decided virtuoso, such a combination must be a source of as much instruc tion as enjoyment. When we state that the money value of this L oan Collectio n has been actually estimated at six millions sterling, we give at s o,erae is'e notion of its import ance, as well som e ground ou r general readers some on which to measure the liberality of its con tributors (the majority, we ar a i r s ep r rou l d to slay, b e i ng members of our own tee afford but little notionbut we of its intrinsic worth and b ea uty, which only au attentive inspection ttentive can place within our reach. Any detail of the collection is of course out of our power. Even its catalogues —full as they are upon every necessary point respectinso . it—would not suffice to convey lye ;s t r i ss o e n r l ita i s ) vithou b t the test of direct inspection, remark . th f a.

THE WAR IN AMERICA. We have received the following telegram from at r correspondent at Cork (Per the Edinburgh.) NEW YORK, SEPT. 27. The Confederate and Federal armies make no movement to either aide of the Potomac. Tha Confederates have made Winchester, in the Shenandoah Valley, their head-quarters. The Federals have reoccupied Harper's Ferry. The news from Kentucky is confused and con tradictory. General Buell, and not General Bragg, appears to have entered Louisville. The President's proclamation for emancipating, on the Ist of January, the slaves in all States then in rebellion is severely canvassed and generally disapproved. In a proclamation of the 24th Mr. Lincoln re iterates the penalties against the crime of discou raging enlistments, and suspends the habeas corpxs in all States and districts declared to be under mar tial law. In a third proclamation, dated the 26th, he nominates a Provost -Marshal-General of the War Department, whose head-quarters are to be at Washington, under whom are to be nominated one or more special Provost-Marshals in every State of the Union, whose duties are to be to arrest all deserters, and, upon the warrant of the Judge AdvocAti, Li 1 1 dibluyal peraoraz to inquire into and report all treasonable practices, detect spies of the enemy, and to perform such other duties as may be enjoined by the War Department. It is asserted that the President will also make a call upon the country for a new and reserve force of half a million of men, in addition to the late levies of 600,000. Rumours of a change in the Cabinet continue to prevail. Mr. Poward Everett is spoken of as Secretary of State, to replace Mr. Seward, who would prefer the Embassy to England. Mr. Charles Sumner is also mentioned as a candidate fur the last-named appointment. The premium on gold is 201 per cent. M. FOULD'S FINANCIAL RERORT. PARIS, OCT. 9. The Moniteur of this morning publishes a report addressed by M. Fould, Minister of Finance, to the Emperor on the financial condition of the Empire. M. Fould says " The adoption of the measures I proposed to your Majesty in January last has enabled me to draw up the Budget for 1863 with a surplus on the revenue of 8,360,041 f. The result for the first six months of 1861 was an increase of 50,000,000 f. The revenue yet to be expected during 1852 will enable us to provide in 1863 for any supplementary ex penses caused by the Mexican Expedition." The Minister continues : " I can confidently state that the balancing of the public revenue and expenditure is assured for 1863." M. Fould then gives a tabular statement of all the supplementary credits to be granted for 1863, and enumerates the sources whence they are to be provided. It results from this statement that the financial year of 1862 will add nothing to the amount of former deficits. The deficit on the Ist of January, 1862, reached the amount of 1,024,503,000 f. This amount has been reduced to 867,000,000 f. by the results of the conversion of the 4i per Cent. Rentes. Here follow details relative to the conversion, tho oruount luala into the Treasury on account of the conversion of the 42 per Cent. Rentes is 157,631,289 f. 392,368,850 f. of 41 per Cent. Rentes are still in circulation. Half of this amount has not been con verted because the holders are prevented from so doing by legal obstacles. The remainder cannot prevent the rise of the Three per Cent. Rentes, the quotation of which now regulates our public credit. M. Fould further says— " The principle aim of this financial operation has already been attained. The re-classification of the Rente appears complete, and the evidence of this is to be found in the statistical details of the opera tions which the departments, through the medium of the chief revenue collectors, are making in con junction with the Treasury. " The conversion has had considerable influence n all other credit securities, and has facilitated the execution of great public works." The report then states that 675,160 Obligations Trentenaires have also been presented to the Trea sury, and the greater portion of them exchanged for Three per Cent. Rentes. 70,542 of these Obli gations only remain in circulation. M. Fould's whole financial statement may be summed up as follows : " The amount of the deficits previous to 1862 has been reduced by 157,000,000 francs. The year 1863 will commence with a reserve which is esti mated at 80,000,000 francs, which is destined to provide for unforeseen events." M. Fould concludes by giving assurances that the budget for 1864 will contain no arrangements liable to cause any increase in taxation. The liloniteur also announces that the Emperor arrived last night at St. Cloud. TURIN, OCT. 8. The Official Gazette of to-day publishes the text of the convention concluded between France and Italy for the preservation of copyright in literary and artistic property. The papers all contain articles speaking in very favourable terms of the amnesty. TURIN, OCT. 8, EVENING.

According to intelligence received from Varig nano, Garibaldi is suffering from slight rheuma tism in the joints. •••••,•••••.. ...It NAPLES, OCT. 8. p r i nce Napoleon and the Princess Ciotilde have left here for Ajaccio.

Some Turks have been killed by the Moatene 'grins at Banjani. Luke Vukalovich succeeded, however, in pre venting any serious outbreak. A review of the Turkish army has taken place at Rodgovizza. An aide-de-camp of the Sultan has arrived here, conveying the thanks of his Imperial Majesty' to the Turkish army for its recent successes. Ho also brings decorations for several officers. ST. PETERSBURG, OCT. 8. The Journal de St. Petersbourg of to-day replies to the article published by the Journal des Debate of the 28th September, on the position of Russia towards Poland. It demonstrates that this article erroneously appreciated the treaties of 1815; and, after recapitulating the text of these treaties, coo.- eludes as follows : The progress of the Goveinment responds to the duties which are traced out by its international obligations, and its solicitude for the prosperity of the kingdom, and to the necessities of the harmoni ous development of the whole Empire in the path of progress opened by the enlightened initiative of the Sovereign.

Italy in the autumn of 1859 I had occasion to express at a small meeting of Milanese citizens the conviction I then felt that Lord Palmerston's Government would afford its moral support to the cause of free government in the Italian Peninsula, and that the English nation was generally in favour of a united Italy. The accompanying correspondence will show that these Italians have expressed their gratitude to Earl Russell in a tangible form, and that the marble statue alluded to and the address which accompanied it have been accepted by the noble Earl. I feel highly honoured in having been deputed to convey this expression of Italian gratitude to our F. reign Secretary, and I am convinced that I am only doing justice to the donors of the statue in asking you to take notice of the circumstance ill your journal.—l have the honour to be, Sir, your very obedient servant, A. KINNAIRD. (Translation.) • "To TIIE RIGHT HON, THE EARL RUSSELL, &C. " May it please your Excellency, --A philanthropic mem ber of the British Parliament, Mr. Arthur Kimaaird (who, at the commencement of Italy's regeneration, travelled 'with one of his colleagues through our peninsula, with the vies` of giving, as they did through the press, an impartial narra tive of their journey, after carefully studying its political condition, expressing at the same time an opinion m ost favourable to the rights of the Italian people), told some of his friends when he was at Milan that your Excellency wasp from among the members of the English Cabinet, one of the foremost in defending the unity of Italy, and that therefore the Italian patriots might rely upon you with the utmost confidence. This assurance on the part of your noble follow. citizens was subsequently confirmed most fully by an authen tic public docump , t to tne note addressed by your Excellency to the representative of your Government in Turin, Sir James Hudson, bearing date the 27th cf Octo ber, 1860, the last day of the Conferences at Warsaw. The noble frankness with which your Excellency disapproved the reproach cast by the other great Powers of Europe on the acts of our Government, when seeking to achieve with effectual determination the independence and liberty of Italy, so happily initiated by Franco-Italian skill and va lour ; moreover, the entire approbation given by you, in the name of your Government (despite the diplomatic ambi guities of the other leading • , tates of Europe), to the mode in which the people and the King of Italy, with remarkable concord, are striving to vindicate the right which each na tion has to belong entirely to itself—these things have awakened in every Italian heart feelings of the most lively gratitude. " The undersigned, therefore, constituting themselves the interpreters of the gratitude thus deservedly entertained. by Italy for your illustrious support of her cause before the European Areopagus, undertook to promote among their fellow countrymen a voluntary subscription, in order to be able to offer to your Excellency, as a token of national gam' titude, a statue of Carrara marble, the work of an eminent Milanese sculptor, Carlo Romano, Professor of Moulding in the Royal Deaf and Dumb Institute of Milan, which was in the Exhibition at Florence. "The subject chosen by the artist appears to them very suitable to the occasion, inasmuch as it expresses in marble the predominant idea of your valuable note, symbolically representing the unity of Italy by an elegant young f e male figure seated on a rack, wearing on her right arm a brace• let on which is engraven the motto, aria,' and hav ing her eyes fixed upon a diadem held fast in her two hands, on which is exhibited in relief various armorial ensigns 81 3 ° propriate to the different States of Italy. " At the request of the promoteis of this patriotic tribute the sculptor granted to them the possession of this work of his as a mark of his country's gratitude, at the same dale offering gratuitously a portion of the work of his hands The undersigned, thus supported by the earnest and volta v tary co-operation of numbers of their fellow-countrymen , are sincerely rejoiced at being permitted to accomplish 81 . 1°- cessfully this their unanimous wish by offering to your Excellency a spontaneous tribute of grateful Italians" te tribute which they hope you will kindly value the ra° r° , from its being presented to you by your noble fellow-eit'' zen, Mr. Arthur Kinnaird, who, as he was for us the O w ' rantee of your moat powerful patronage, will be also to V II the witness of their never failing gratitude.
