NO VEY MARKE7' AND CITY NEWS. CITY, Two O'CLOCK. REDUCTION OF THE RATE OF DISCOUNT. The minia,tra rate of discount hAs been reduced to the extent of 1 per cent., viz., from 6 to 5 per cent. This important measure was generally anti cipated in consequence of the recent decline in the ' v alue of accommodation, and the cessation of the adverse specie movement. During the past week the authorities have been excluded from active Participation in the current discount business, "ring to the increased facilities offered in the open market, and in the course of a few days the mercan tile community will, no doubt, be enabled to g et their secur i t i es nego ti a ted even on lower terms than 5 per cent., the market being well supplied with money. There were no bullion operations of importance at the Bank of England yesterday. About 1.360,000 in silver, of the L 2 ,000,000, however, have been received from the Bank of France. At the meeting yesterday of the creditors of Messrs. J. and E. Williams, sugar agents, the pro- Posal to pay 15s. in the pound was accepted. At the forthcoming meeting of the Peninsula and Oriental Steam Navigation Company, a dividend, & e., amounting to 5 per cent., will be proposed, making, with the distribut ion of 31 per cent. in T "uno last, 81 per cent. per annum. A 'meeting has been convened of the Canada co uipany, for the purpose of determining on a divi dend and other business. _ . A fair amount of business was recorded in the Liverpool Cotton Market yesterday, and prices Were a shade higher. The sales were about 10 ,000 bales. Th.e announcement that the Bank Directors had reduced the rate of discount produced very little effect upon the Market for Public Securities, the Leasure having been partly anticipated in specu lative circles. Consols are 931 I for money and Recount, showing no variation of importtince. The New Three per Cents. are firmer, at 91 92; the Iteduced at 911 92 ; India New Loan is steady, at 1037-, ; ditto 51 per Cent. Enfaced Paper has itnproved to 1011, and the Debentures remain at 96 1. Exchequer Bills are 4s. to is. dis. No variation has taken place in Foreign Secu "ties, and business is quiet. Turkish 6 per Cents. are 73 x ; ditto New, 581 to 584; and 4 per Cents. ar e firmer at 102 ; Portuguese at 461 ; Spanish r emain at 50; Brazilian 41 per Cents. at 891; and Dutch 4 per Cents. at 100.

The effect of our six per cent. rate of discount in attracting money from the Continent for employment on st this side is said already to have been manifested, several :t amounts having been remitted hither to be emp lo y ed in the sit discount of long bills. st About 10,000 sovereigns were shipped by the atearaer to N swYork onTuesday,while theHammon ia yester day has brought £ 9 , 000 from that city. The advices tele- as, graphed by this packet tend to confirm the impression that s at/ specie remittances that may be made to America in c onsequence of the exchange and discount quotations received on Monday will be likely to result inloss. It is stated that a large amount of bills drawn from Constantinople by some unauthorised person, or in a ficti tious name, on a respectable house in London, have been Put in circulation at various places on the Continent. Advices from Naples yesterday state that an action brought by Deputy Bertani against one of the public Journals on account of some allegations of corruption in c onnexion with the railway concession granted by General Cistribaldi had resulted in his entire vindication. , SOUTHAMPTON, Wednesday. — The North German -Lloyd screw steamer New York, Captain H. J. Von Santen, Bailed hence at 2 p.m., with German and English mails, 150 passengets, £lO,OOO in sovereigns from London, and a full cargo. Captain M. F.

THE LATE SIR CHARLES NAPIER. The following is a copy of a letter received from the Portuguese Ambassador, expressing the esteem ,n which Sir Charles Napier was held by his Ma jesty the King of Portugal : " London, Nov. 23. "Madam,--His Majesty the King of Portugal, my august sovereign, has ordered me to express to you, in his Royal name, the profound grief which his Majesty felt at the news of the decease of the illustrious and brave Admiral Sir Charles Napier, Count of Cape St. Vincent. " His Most Faithful Majesty, wishing, moreover, to give a public and extraordinary testimony of the high consideration in which he held the important services rendered to - the cause of the legitimate Throne and of the constitutional institutions of Portugal by the said brave Admiral, Count of Cape St. Vincent, had ordered the Portuguese Royal Navy to go into mourning for three days. " I request you will please to communicate these determinations of his Most Faithful Majesty to the whole of your family, and you may also publish them if you think proper. " Having fulfilled the orders of my Royal Sove reign, permit me, Madam, to avail myself of this opportunity to repeat the expression of my grief, and the assurance of the respectful considerations with which I have the honour to be, "Madam, your most obedient humble servant, " LAVRADIO." THE MATHEWS KIDNAPPING CASE.-IN RE MAR- DUBLIN, Tuesday.—ln the Court of Common Pleas yesterday Sir Colman O'Loghlan, Q.C., on the part of Miss Margaret Aylward, lately com mitted by the Court of Queen's Bench to Grange gorman Female Prison for contempt in not bringing up the child Mary Mathews, pursuant to the order of the Court, applied for a writ of habeas corpus, in order that she might be brought before their lordships for the purpose of having an applica tion made for her discharge from custody, on the ground that she was not in legal custody, the Court of Queen's Bench, by the Act 19 and 20 Victoria, cap. 68, no longer possessing the power which formerly belonged to it of selecting any prison which it might deem proper for the cus tody of a person held guilty of contempt, but being bound in accordance with the provisions of that Act to commit such person to the four Courts Mar shalsea only. The Chief Justice granted the application, and announced that the Court would sit specially on Friday next to hear the case argued. Some of their lordships observed strongly on the fact that, although Miss Aylward was imprisoned for more than three weeks, the application for the writ was not made until the last day of term, when it was impossible to apply to the Court of Queen's Bench to amend the order if erroneous.

The motion for the discharge of Denis O'Connor, one of the persons in custody in the Sherwood kid napping case, was renewed in the Court of Queen's Bench yesterday, and, on the consent of the prose cutrix, he was allowed to stand out on his own recognizance in £lOO to appear when required. An application for the discharge of M'Robins was refused. The Chief Justice stated that there was another way of vindicating the law than by merely appealing to the jurisdiction of that Court. They might commit parties for not making returns to their writs, but it was a mistake to suppose that it was the duty or in the power of the Court of Queen's Bench to inflict the full extent of punishment for the offence charged. Mr. Brereton stated that the matter—a criminal prosecution for kidnapping— was under consideration. VEND AED WEATHER REPORT. THIS DAY, N ov. 29, 9 A.M.

Baron Bunsen was in the 70th year of his age. - - ' THE LATE DR CAOLY.—Yesterday a deputation, consisting of the churchwardens and several inhabitants of St. Stephen's. Walbrook, waited upon Sir Geo. C. Lewis, Secretary of State for the Home Department, for the pur pose of presenting a memorial very numerously signed by the parishioners, praying that sanction might be given for the interment of the remains of the late Dr. Croly in the church of St. Stephen's, of which he had been rector 25 years, and in accordance with a written desire of the late lamented pastor. Sir G. C. Lewis paid a high tribute to the memory of the deceased clergyman, and in considera tion of his great literary attainments and the pure and faithful manner in which he had discharged his holy office, at once complied with the request of the memorialists. The day of the funeral is not yet determined on. The Vienna advices state that the rates of exchange continue to become more adverse for Austria, the movement during the last two days having been equal to two per cent, Reports of a contemplated increase of paper issues appear to be among the causes of the alarm.

EXTRAORDINARY CHARGE AGAINST A CITY MERCHANT. —Mr. Albert Wodecki, of 10, St. Mary-Axe, merchant, was charged with stealing from the person of Josephine Welton, a German female, of 4, Northumberland-court, Strand, a brooch of the value of £5. Josephine Welton said—.At 3 this morning she was at the Cafe Regence, at the corner of Windmill .street, with an English lady, having coffee,when she asked for the sugar basin. The prisoner, who was sitting there with some friends, said "That's not English, you are a Chinese," evidently intending to insult her. With her friend she left tkat part of the place and seated themselves In a corner, when the prisoner followed them, and insulted her again. She said a few words referring to him in German, and then left the place. She had only part got across the road, when the prisoner ran after her, caught her by the shawl, which came undone, when she found her brooch was gone. He then caught hold of her by the wrist, on which was a bracelet ; the bracelet became unfastened, and he caught hold of one part of it, and she of the other. She then called " Police," and felt to see that her two watches were safe. On the constable coming up she gave him in charge. She had given Xfi for the brooch in Edinburgh. Prisoner said he gave the prosecutrix in charge, and not she hire. Grimly Antinel, friend of the prosecutrix, said she was at the Cafe Regence with the prosecutrix. The prisoner continually insulted the prosecutrix, saying that she was a " Chiaese," and used bad language. While crossing Wind mill. street the prisoner ran after them and caught hold of the prosecutrix's wrist, and prosecutrix then said, "My brooch is gone." She (witness) then called " Police," and on their coming up the prisoner wanted to give her in charge for using insulting language towards him. She had seen the prosecutrix's brooch safe on leaving the cafe. Three or four more persons were in the prisoner's company at the time. In answer to Mr. Tyrwhitt, the prosecutra said that she had got her shawl but not the brooch. A constable said on going up he saw all the parties stand ing at the corner of "Windmill-street. The prisoner wanted to give prosecutrix in charge for annoying him, but on the prosecutrix accusing him of taking her brooch he took him into custody. The prisoner said he had never seen the brooch, and that it was a false charge. Part of the prose cutrix's shawl was hanging on the* ground, and the other part on her neck. Prisoner said he was at the Cafe Regence with some friends, and the females began abusing them, he supposed, because they wctild not pay for some drink. One of his friends want , ,,d to expostulate with them but he said, "No, I'll givo 'them in charge ;" and when the prosecutrix saw that-, she screamed " Police," and pretended that he had stolen her brooch. There was a number of persons present at the time, and he did not believe she had a brooch. He only held her by the wrist as to secure her to givo her in charge ; and seeing this she said, " This fellow has taken my brooch." A gentleman said he heard the witness Antinel say to the prosecutrix, " Now, say he has stolen your brooch." Mr. Wodecki was a highly respectable merchant in the City. The witness Antinel denied over saying anything of the kind, and said the witness was not present. Another gentleman said he heard the waiter say he would turn the females out if they did not keep quiet. They left, and came back and abused his friend, Mr. Wodecki. He heard Antinel say to the prosecutrix, "Take down your brooch." The witness Antinel positively denied this. Mr. Tyrwhitt said it might have been said with the view of telling her to take care of it. The waiter was called, and said the females went out and came back three or four times. He would not swear that the prosecutrix had not got a brooch. He also heard something said about the sugar basin in the first instance. Mr. Tyrwhitt said he would take bail for the prisoner, two sureties in 1110 each to appear this day week. Bail was tendered and accepted, and the accused left the Court with his friends, • THAMES.

There are upon an average about 2,000 labourers em ployed in the St. Katherine Dock, and they are paid daily. For some time past many of the casual labourers not em ployed have contrived to obtain money for a de, 's labour, by calling out their own or other men's names while the warehouse keepers were paying the sum. Yesterday after noon, soon after 4 o'clock, Mr. Yabsley, wareheusekeepor of the E quay, had to pay 300 men, who were set to work in the morning by Mr. Samuel Heath the wharfiuger, and while he was doing so the prisoner called out the name of New, and Mr. Yabsley knowing there was a labourer of that name on his list and believing that the prisoner had been at work paid him a half-crown. Mr. Yabsley asked him if he had been at work in the dock all day to which he replied in the affirmative. Directly after wards Mr. Yabsleyi suspected something wrong and asked Mr. Heath if he had " taken on" the prisoner in the morn ing, to which Mr. Heath replied in the prisoner's hearing, " Oh, no, I know him too well for that." The prisoner was then asked what he had been doing all day to which he replied trucking bags of sugar. The prisoner in the course of a long examination said he was called John New in the morning, that he answered to the name, and that he was set to work. Mr. Heath, however, clearly proved that the prisoner was not set to work yesterday, and that he had only been employed in the dock twice or three times in the course of the last twelve months. There was a man named John New in the company's employ. He was not at work yesterday on the E quay or any other part of the dock. When a dock watchman was called to take the prisoner into custody he ran away. He was pursued over Tower-hill, and stopped at Sparrow-corner, Minories, by a City policeman. Mr. Mumford, the Superintendent of the St. Katherine Dock police, said it was the deterni'ination of the company to prosecute in every case of this kind. Mr. Selfe committed the prisoner for trial.

Patrick, which was de cided on Tuesday last, is almost unique in the legal annals of this country. In the first place, we may observe that the litigation, in some shape or other, had endured for a period extending beyond half a century, when Parliament in 1838 passed the Legi timacy Declaration Act, a measure which afforded to the petitioners a new and further opportunity of submitting their case to the decision of the Divorce Court. In the second place, the recent trial occu pied exactly fourteen days—an entire term, if we exclude the days allotted to motions. What has been the result of this protracted litigation ? After a most attentive and careful investigation before the full Court, conducted with singular ability by I one of the petitioners in person, Sir Cresswell Cress well, with the concurrence of the two common law judges, decided that the petitioners had altogether failed in making out their case. We do not blame the young lady, who, desirous of vindicating the honour of her family, and fully impressed with the belief that her cause was just, fought almost against hope to establish the validity of a marriage which was stated to have taken place 70 years ago. The same extenuation, however, cannot be extended to the co-petitioner, whose conduct was very properly condemned by the Judge Ordinary, on account of the trouble, vexation, and expense to which he had need lessly put a man of honourable and unsullied charac ter. But this case may be considered independently of interests of the parties concerned. It is too noto rious that the Divorce Court is crowded with an ' amount of business which the Judge Ordinary, even with all his marvellous quickness and indus try, is utterly unable to diminish. The Legislature confers upon him the power of dissolving marriage; and at a time when two hundred divorce suits, not counting proceedings for judicial separation and probate cases, have been set down for hearing, this case of Shedden v. Patrick—a mere unsubstantial claim, as it turns out--stops the way, and occupies, as we have before said, an entire term. Cases of the same kind are not unlikely to occur again ; and if this should be so, the Divorce Court will speedily become in a worse condition than was the Court of Chancery in the time of those scandalous abuses and interminable delays which happily were swept away by the Acts of 1852. The truth is, that Par liament, when it passed the Divorce Act, and sub stituted the jurisdiction of an ordinary court for exceptional legislation by means of a private Act of Parliament, never anticipated that, instead of three or five divorces a year, the number, under the faci- lities afforded by the new system, would amount to at least as many hundreds per annum. The judicial strength of the Court was from the first obviously incompetent to deal with this mass of business. This new chapter of procedure, according to the usual English mode of applying small remedies to great and admitted evils, has been patched and tinkered by giving the Judge Ordinary the extraordinary power, whilst sitting alone, of pronouncing decrees of dis solution of marriage. But a new element of delay has been added. 'Whenever collusion is suspected the Attorney-General is to intervene in the suit to watch the proceedings on behalf of the interests of public morality. Many divorce cases will, therefore, assume a triangular form, and the Queen's Proctor and the Attorney-General will be expected, by preliminary inquiry and by the examination of Witnesses at the hearing, to guard the tribunal against the fatal mistake of dissolving marriages in cases in which the parties have a common interest in concealing the facts from the judge. The provisions of the Act of last session, which declares that decrees of dissolution of marriage shall not be made absalute, until the period of three months has elapsed, will be a further cause of delay. Parties, irritated with the scandal and disgrace which has been brought upon their family, will communicate with the Queen's Proctor, and often, on mere sus picion, the whole litigation will nave to be reopened. These provisions are no doubt wise in themselves, as furnishing some check upon fraud and collusion, but if they are to be effectual, how can one judge, who at present is hopelessly overwhelmed with arrears, be expected to undertake this new branch of business, and to administer it in a satisfactory or even decent manner ? If the matrimonial infidelity of the country is to be estimated by the number of divorce suits which have been instituted since January, 1858, not one, but two or three, divorce judges sitting separately will be requisite. We do not believe that Parliament has the slightest intention of incurring any expenditure for such a purpose. Having once given the remedy, it cannot go back and tell, the poor man that he must, as formerly, go to the ecclesiastical court, then to common law, and, finally, to the House of Lords, to obtain a divorce. The present system, whether good, bad, or indifferent, in a moral and social point of view, cannot be worked by a single judge. The policy of this country is, we know, adverse to a multiplicity of expensive tribunals. If any judge could make head against arrears that judge is Sir Cresswell Cresswell. But it is right that the . public should correctly understand the position in which that very learned person is placed. He not only has to administer justice in a hundred times as many divorce cases as formerly came before the House of Lords, but he has in addition to, decide all those questions of criminal conversation, and all those suits for divorces a lnensa et Moro which, under the abolished system, were submitted to the common law and ecclesiasti cal courts. We believe that the only way of re lieving the tribunal from its present difficulties, which in many instances amount to a denial of jus tice, would be by the employment of ex-judges, who receive large pensions from the country, and comparatively make no return except in the shape of occasional sittings in the House of Lords or the Judicial Committee of the Privy Council. Lord Cranworth and Lord Chelmsford, for instance, would confer upon the public a great service if they could lend a helping hand to Sir Cresswell Cresswell, and relieve the most recently created of our tribunals from the - scandal and disgrace of being utterly and hopelessly unable to meet the requirements of justice.—/Itorning Post. CROWDED THEATRES. IMPORTANT DECISION. Two cases of some interest to playgoers were tried yesterday at the Westminster County Court, in which the question at issue was whether the plain tiffs, having paid for seats in the pit, and finding afterwards there was only standing room, were entitled to have their money returned. The first case was that of " Thornburgh v. Smith." The plaintiff, a Government clerk, sued Mr. E. T. Smith, lessee and manager of her Majesty's Theatre, to recover 25.6 d. ke had paid thereatfor a seat in the pit, which, being so full at the time, he could not obtain. Mr.:Lew is o treasurer of the theatre, represented defen dant. From plaintiff's statement it appeared that on the night of the Ist inst., a few minutes after the doors were opened, he and Mr. Bell, a friend, entered the theatre, and after inquiring of the pit money taker if there was " sitting" room, and receiving a reply " plenty," they paid 2s. 6d. each ; but on going in, they found every seat occupied, and a large body of the audience obliged to stand. Not feeling inclined to do the same, having paid their money for " seats," they returned to the money-taker to complain, and were by him referred to the treasurer, who offered them seats in a box, but taking them to an extreme end one at the top of the house, where they could hardly see or hear ; they would not stop, and requested their money back, which, being refused, these proceedings wore taken. Mr. Lewis submitted that the money-taker was not supposed to know the pit was full when plaintiff and his friend went in, and the seats he offered them in the box were ss. each. His Honour said that might be so, but they were not bound to accept the offer. They had a right . to seats in the pit, for which they ha d been misled ieto paying for by being told the re wasp le r nt r y b of e "sitting" room; the money must . the_re _o er e the returned. The judgment was according' f plaintiff. The other action was brought b Y the Mr. Bell referred to, a student of ExeterayleCeollege given ' Oxford, in whose favour judgment was on the same grounds THE BURNING OF THE ROYAL MALL ASTEAMBI2 COIVICAUGHT. The protracted inquiry into the circumstances 1 attending the loss of the above vessel, on her voy _ age from St. John's, Now Brunswick, to Boston, on the 7th ult., was concluded yesterday evening, at the Greenwich Police-court, before Mr. Traill, police magistrate, and Captain Harris, nautical assessor. The evidence having been completed, .Mr. Trani said it was not usual to express what the opinion of the Court was in these inquiries, but to make their report to the Board of Trade. In migl t mention that that report, however, h e would be in nothing it would contain condemna tion of the officers of the ship, but would contain suggestions as to cautions necessary under similar circumstances as those which led to the loss of the vessel. Mr. Valiance inquired when the report might be looked for. _ Mr. Traill said it would bo forwarded to the Board of Trade as early as possible ; but now that the officers of the vessel were known to be acquitted of blame, there would not be that anxiety there otherwise would have been. The inquiry then terminated. THE JEWEL ROBBERY.---YeSterday Graham , in the Third Court, pleaded guilty to stealing 60 gold chains, seven seven gold brooches, four br acelets, and fire gold cha Sentence was postponed till nest session. IThe eyes of all Europe are turned at this moment to the Court of Turin. It has the power and it has the responsibility. Whatever Italy may owe to this or that man, and to one man it owes all that any one man could do, it has no choice but to repose on the prudence and courage of the Sovereign whcm it has accepted by universal acclamation. It depends on the power and it awaits the counsels of Victor Emmanuel, and it accordingly devolves on that Prince to do all that the situation requires. The least shortcoming would be a misfortune to Italy and an eternal reproach to the man who had undertaken the task. Ten thousand churches would sing Ti Deztms over the rash adventurer who had accepted the allegiance of the Italian race, and lost the high prize, or damaged it in the handling. Nor can there be any doubt that this great affair does absolutely rest with the Kin g of Sardinia. had Southern Italy simply surrendered to Garibaldi, or insisted on independence, in that case it would have been responsible for its own future disasters, which would not h ave b een i nconsiderable. But it gave itself up to Victo r E mmanuel, and Garibaldi him self, with every m an o f patriotism and sense about him, knew that there was no other alternative. All honour is due to the Di c t ator, who has been proof. against allurements that would have dazz'ed and upset a less noble nature or as it lessanstl7clyoulculdbge 'sent ; but the deed is done, as done, and Victor Eammnuel is now virtually King o f It a ly. If the work be left inc omp l ete, or if the 1 unfinished vase break in the annealing, it i s now his fault. If anarchy creeps in between one rule and another it is his fault, If a stat e o f things should arise to suggest an ill comparison w i t h the old Bourbon rule, it is his fault. All hangs on Turin ; and the larger or fairer or more famous cities o f th e Peninsula must remember that if, for the pr esent, their own glory seems eclipsed, it is the condition of that unity and independence they have sought, and the common contribution of Italy to its new lord. Such were the considerations which pressed heavily, but not more than the occasion demanded, on Victor Emmanuel and his advisers when they , found themselves in actual possession of the rwo Sicilies. They had to deal with a mass of difficulties, which we can but faintly imagine. In addition to all the evils that h a d ever ex i s t e d, an d that consti tuted, in fact, the case for interference, there were now two armies in the process of dissolution, besides a civil service in almost the same case, and a legion of candidates for everything which their new masters had at their disposal. This we all knew; it was t o b e an ti c i pate d ; an d i t h as b een described by the pens of many able and impartial spectators. lVhat it may take more mental effort to apprehend is th e pos i t i on o f Vi ctor Emmanuel with the gallant men who had crowned their noble deeds by laying half Italy at his feet. It was im possible not to feel f or th em unbounded admiration and gratitude. But it was I taly, not Garibaldi, that was in question. In so great an a ff a i r t h e work man must yield to his work, and the donor sub mit to be measured by his gift. We believe there is very little doubt that Garibaldi himself felt as a hero would feel on the occasion, and could see the crisis as Victor Emmanuel was comp e ll ed to see it. But he had pledged himself deep i n word and in . affection to his lieutenants, who, as they will re ceive only a reflected share of glory, desired some thing substantial in the shape of power and patron age. No doubt they, too, had largely e ngaged themselves, and done much which was not likely to stand the scrutiny of more regular and experienced rulers. So there is no doubt that when Garibaldi met Victor Emmanuel he was made the mouthpiece of a demand which would simply have added a year of revolution to centuries of division, and plunged Southern Italy into a night of anarchy, with but the hope of a dawn. The proposition that Garibaldi was to be Lieutenant-General of the Two Sicilies, with. full powers, for a twelvemonth, simply meant that Ciispi was to reign at Naples, Bertani at Palermo, and Mazzini to make the best use of that year's law at both places. It also meant the sanction and per manent recognition not only of the Army of Southern Italy, and, in a general way, of its ranks and com missions, but of every separate appointment, what ever the object and under whatever circumstances made. Such an arrangement would have been incom patible with safety, with regular government, with the administration of the Piedmontese army. and with the finances at the command of the new King of Italy. We must distinguish between the men who did the work and the men who stepped in when the work was done, or who only appeared in the front to co-operate with the regular Piedmontese troops, if even then. For several weeks the Garibal diens very properly confined themselves to the defen sive, but that was the period of the largest and most indiscriminate levies. The chief had no other alternative but to accept the services of all who offered ; it was impolitic, if not dangerous, to refuse ; and in the crowd that did offer it was not easy to sift the claims of men who demanded rank in the service. It is now said that many of the officers were such as could not bear rank in any regular service, and that the attempt to put them on a par with the officers who had fought their way up to rank in the Crimea, at Magenta, at Castelfidardo, and Ancona, would produce great and just dissatisfaction. A considerable portion of the army of South Italy was enlisted by Bertani after Garibaldi had crossed the Straits and was on his way to Naples. Of course, the Piedmontese chiefs desire to recognise all these services for as much as they have been worth ; but to have left the matter entirely in Garibaldi's hands would have been to leave it in the hands of his lieutenants —the men who drew so largely on the authority and resources which they supposed to be vested in them, and who would probably consider their honour pledged not to withdraw one tittle of what they had once granted. For some time it was generally believed in this country, as elsewhere, that the point on which Garibaldi had withdrawn to his Patmos was his failure to obtain a general recognition of the acts of his Dictatorship. It now appears that his friends had engaged to make larger demands, which would in effect have rendered the submission of the Two Sicilies to Victor Emmanuel an idle form, meaning nothing for the present, which in this case is every thing. They who prompted this demand either did not want a real Italian unity or wished to substi tute some other form of unity for a kingdom, or had some game of their own. It is essential to a unity that every part should give as well as take, should consent to merge its own import ance, and even what it may imagine to be its own idea of and at all events should give up all of absolute self-government. How have we gone to work ? We have grown from a Heptarchy into one kingdom, from three kingdoms into one, and have recently made another large Empire a depart ment of the State.
