Freights are improving, and tonnage in better +demand for India, particularly to Calcutta for Salt, for which 42s is freely paid without consign ment. For China the rates are firm, and several vessels, have been chartered this week at our quotations. Homewards from the Rice ports there is a good inquiry for ships at an advance of 55 per ton on former rates ; and 82s 6d is offering for Teak from Moulmain. From Calcutta and Bombay the freights are unchanged, and merchants here are not desirous of taking ships. Timber freights from Quebec have improved, and ships are, much wanted. To U. S. ports rates this week have barely been maintained, and rather loWer rates to New York have been accepsed ; but from the very moderate supply of tonnage on the way we look for advanced rates to be paid shortly.

It may be some information to our readers to know that "Ilarkaway" is the principal turf Contributor to The Land, and also to the Morning Herold : "Fltrkanray" scarcely lets his left hand know what he is doing with his right, and he can win a century' without smiling, and drop the like amount without moving a muscle. He saw Thormarthy win hitn close upon 1,000 soya. for the Derby, and he looxed upon the contest as coolly as if the hors+-s were merely running for pins. He is not only a scholar and a gen tleman, but he is one of th(• best riders to hounds, one of the best game shots, one of the best fencers (boils). one of the hest salmon fishers, and one sf the best houndsmen in England. In fact, we are open to hack him for 500 sovs. to shoot, ride, angle, and fence against any one man in the world, and will stake the mcney whenever our challenge shall be accepted."

A C'T A G GAIiT'S; boalswelve miles to the north-east of Nicotera, and not a:great way froM Reggio, so thatin • all probability 'a battle has' 6ady been fotight ib that iieighbourhoo4: The 14essina telegrams of the 19th and6th, 4n inst. refer to the arrival at that port of several English vessels freighted with arms and ammunition for the use of Gari baldi's forces. One of these ships had on hoard 30,000 rifles, and 15 rifled cannon; and another, which arrived on the evening of the 19th, is described as "an English war steamer, purchased at Liverpool." There is every reason_to belie' e that the two_yeoels thus alluded. to, were the Queen, of England, and' the Independence, 'whose departure'for' Sicily Was, it will be recollected, chronicled in o,nr eoltiniris at the tune. The cargoes of these snips Ve'ain to have reached their cleStitiatiori at a - most opportune iriomeni. - - According to the statements in the semi-offiCial Paris papers, as reported by our Correspondent,.Naples will be. defended by the King and his brothers to the last extremity; and front other sources we learn that the Duke of Modena is seeking to operate a diversion in their favour and in his own, by endeavouring to effect a junction lietiemi • his troops and those Of - General Imperial' LiMoriCierel When the corn lava_ flourished in this country, and the price of the chief article of our food was contingent on the . tendtr mercies of the "sliding scale," our. only means of escape from the evils of an absolute dearth lay in the power which was vested in her Majesty in Council, of suspOnding the operation of the protective statutes. A corn law and a sliding scale still exist in France; hilt we are now informd thai it is the into= tion of the Emperor of the French to permit corn and flour to be imported into France at the minimum rate of duty, down to the end of September, 1861. The relaiation is also to apply to these articles when imported. in foreign, as well as in French vessels. It is to be hoped and supposed that this temporary measure is merely the prelude to a permanent one of the same description. The French press has been strongly advocating'such a course bf late ,i ; The population of Spain, as given by the ,ellmancteit, de Goiluz for 1860, is 16 1 ,301,851 . ; that of France, 36,030,364 ; 'that of Prussia, 17,739,913 ; that of Austria, 37 1 ,339,912 ; that l of Rusiia, 1,243,616 ; that of Great Britain; 26,674,353. There is therefore, in regard to population, no great difference between Spain and Prussia: Doubtless Garibaldi is looking forward to the mst f tblishment of a Kingdom of Italy whickshall have a, population of 22,000,000. -Such a kingdom could not well be ,Acluded from the Supreme. Court of Europe : and Spain has probably made her claim at 'this moment in consequence of the events which are occurring in Italy. India.is now the chief problem for statesmen. The Wilson 'Midget is found to be as great a blunder as the Gladstone Budget. Mr. Wilson's additional tales are calculated to add only .8 per cent. to the Present - revenue of India;—and are therefore perfectly Useless against the chronic tendency to deficit. lt is folly to. provoke discontent by unfair taxation for such a paltry end. The_ European subaltern, with about £3OO a year, is to pay no income-tax : the civilian with`e similar income will: have the plensure of meeting - the cbllector: A native'officer, with about £l2O a year, is exempt: his countryman", ' who works in a counting-houim for £2O, will have to pay. This is r tal r tably foolish . and unfair'; and, with all the disbontent which such measures must produce, the gigantic deficit will be but slightly dimi 'nished—and India will haVe to go on borrowing at the rate of five nrillitins a year at least. Stich is the success of Mr. Wilson's finance. The statement on the Commerce and Finances of _Belgium,. from M. Herries, contained - ' in . the recent series of:Reports of Secretaries of Embassy, gives a rather unfavourable picture of the trade of that country during-the last half of 1859.- -The shipping - returns of.. .1859' were satisfactory, and a diminution occurred in the total Mercantile marine df seven vessels and an aggre gate burden of 3,043 tons: The Budget for 1859, hdu ever, as first presented, showed a revenue_of 25,8 60 1 000 against an expenditure of £,5,40,000. By a law pelt An ,the Bth of September last, the Government were autho rised to contract a loan of £1,800,000 for the fortifica tions of Antwerp and other public works. The traffic on Belgian railways belonging to or worked hy the State yielded.dtiring tl e last .year only 41,486,000 i against £1,484,000 in 1858. The natidnal debt now amotints 'to .223,980,000, of Whieb £15,687,90 is Ordinriry, and £8,293,000 extraordinary, fOr the construction( of rail; ways, roads, and canals. The anntial charge icif the whole, including the sinking funds, is £1,166,000. The town of Plymouth has been full of gaiety during the last fortnight. What with regatta—yacht and traw ler flying fast. over waters that foam like champagne,— stalwart oarsmen bending to their work as only English oarsmen can ;--what with the launch of a mighty war ship in the signifleant presence iff the , French ambas sador ;,,-what with opera, night after night, Ponizetti;—what with private and public balls, where the rythm of pretty little feet outdOeethe - Melody of the delirious waltz music ;—what with races, and the neck and-neck rash of gloriotts thoroughbreds, it has assur edly had amusement enough. Extensive preparations are at present being made at Hull in connection with the fits which is to come off on the occasion of the Mayor, (L. C. Pearson, Esq.,) presenting the town with 26 adios Of land for the Punt poses of a people's park. A review.. of the Voitinieer rifle and artillery corps is to take place. Several thousand volunteers will be present, the corps, of the following towns;- having signified their intention of being present : —Lincdln; Boston; Louth, Grimsby, Barton, Brid lington, Filey, Bic.

Somes, Esq., M.P., and other members of Par liament belie announced their intention to be present. The volunteers -of Manchester, iintitherhig 1,000, have also been invited, and it is expected will take Part in the procession. There is to be a' grand ,procession of the 'civic authorities, and afterwards a . % great fete will come off in the park under the management of Mr. Entlerlv .Tackon; 'of the Crystal Palace. Sixty thousand tickets- have already been ordered, and the event is expected to surpass that Which tdoir platintin the occa sion of the Queen's visit in 1854. Monday and Tuesday, the 27th and 28th of August, are the days appointed fOi the ceremony of opening the park. At a public meeting held yesterday in the metropolis, at the London Tavern, in aid of a fund for Garibaldi, resalutions were carried with great cheering, to the effect that it was necessary for the prosperity of Italy and the peabe of Europe that the people of Vail should be emancipated from the galling tyranny of the Bourbon rule. A committee was appointed to carry out the object of the meeting. From the evidence given on the Dover explosion inquiry, we learn that the gun which exploded was 55 years old. It was four years in the Edgar (Xing's ship) during the war ; it was in the Barham in 1312, and probably ml service till 1815 ; then it seems to have had a long rest, for we do not hear of it till we find it in the Asia, in 1836. On these various occasions it was searched—that is, examined; it was returned to Woolwich in 1845, and then. again ,examined;' since which time there is no trace of its being examined. In 1850 it was selected for fort duty at Dover, and there it appears to have remained unexamined till the accident. The honorary secretaries of the British Syrian Belie Fund have addressed a letter to her Majesty's Consul- General at Beyrout, instructing him to draw upon their treasurer for £5,500, for the relief of the Sufferers by the disturbances in Syria. A frightful accident took place near Chamouni, in the Alps, on the 15th instant, in which three English travellers and a guide slipped over a precipice and were killed. Their names were Mr. J. M. Rochester and Mr. J. Vavassour, of Cardiff, and Mr. B. Fuller, of London. The annual Ministerial whitebait dinner took place on Wediaesday evening at the Trafalgar Hotel,' Green wich.

The two Houses of Parliament cannot . agree on the subject or tile Conjugal Rights (Scotland) Bill, and a conimittee was last flight aPPoitited by the liouse of Lords to develop their lordships' reasons for dissenting from the Commons'. ameindmees on that measure. In the House of Commons, Lord. Palmerston took an opporttinity of describing the French Suez Canal scheme as one of the greatest delusions of modern links, Which is certainly saying a good deal. The second reading of the bill for extending still further the benefits (?) of the Divorce Act was carried by a majority of 43 to 11; and after several other measures had been passed, a House, consisting of 16 members, was counted out whilst Sir De Lacy Evans was proceeding to ex plain his motion for the erection of a fortified work on Shooter's-hill, for the protection of the Woolwich Arsenal. There can be no longer any doubt as to the restoration, of a good understanding, between the Emperor Joseph and the Emperor Alexander. At a grand banquet, given by the Czar at the Imperial Court at. St. Petersburg in honour of the birthday of the Emperor of Austria, at which the Austrian Ambassador was present, the Czar proposed the health of the Emperor Joseph, in the most cordial terms, speaking of him as " his dear brother." We shall dmibtleis not long be without tidings of some corresponding manifestation of the renewed amity which has been established between the two Emperors—who have so many interests in common—having taken place at Vienna. The Nord repeats its account of the arrangements made at Toaplitz between Prussia and Austria, notwith standing the semi-official contradiction of the Prussian GaziTte: 'What the. Nord means to say—and to this extent only is its statement to be relied on—is, that it has been agreed that if France attacks Austria in the Quadrilateral, Prussia, and consequently the whole of Germany, will join her against the aggressor. It is quite natural for the Prussian Government to wish not to precipitate matters, and keep on good terms with all the world as long as possible ; and it is equally natural for France to wish to keep up a belief that the two great German Powers have not7come to an understanding ; but that a satisfactory understanding of some sort between Austria and Prussia, respecting the affairs of Italy, has not been arrived at, in consequence of that meeting, nobody believes for a moment. The important additional fact is now also made clear, that Russia approves of what has taken place, and is prepared, within certaitr preScribed limits, to make common cause with the other two Powers. How agreeable it is to be able to reflect, that'in the present condition of European politics, no danger is to be apprehended from ..such a combination. • ' It appears., from intelligence received from various sources, that we have not over-estimated the numbers of the Garibaldians who have landed in Calabria. Ac cording to a despatch from Naples, dated. the 22nd, we learn that Garibaldi had under his immediate command, when he disembarked, a force of 8,000 men ; and there can be nn doubt that several thousand had effected a landing previously at various points of the coast. The success of the disembarkation is confirmed by a telegram from Messina, dated the 10th, which mentions that a . general battle was expected .thai, evening. This expec tation, however, does not appear to have been realised ; and we are subsequently told that Reggio fell into the hands of the invaders on the following day. The Naple, despatch states that the Royal troops were concentrated at Monteleone, a town of some importance, situated THE VAUXHALLLROAD DOES any one doubt that ANN JAMES was mur dered ? As reasonably might it be doubted that antimony is a deadly poison: The felonious act Of aceelerating a natural disease; and hurrying it oil tuatital - terininatiCti; it every Whit es much a murder as if death had been inflicted by the etroke of -a hatchet.- Nay, more ; the former is, if hnything; the fouler murder of the .two. An attenipt-Was Made iy the conneel for the accused to show that it had not been proved that the poison had actually accelerated her end, but only that it Might have done so ; that it had merely a "tendency," not a "liability." Everybody, how -670., must concur with the learned Judge, when, in summing up, he said : "He thought there could be no doubt that the woman's death had been accelerated by antimony." The only ques tidn; that remains to be settled—for it is still, tinforttinitely; iiriansWetedis; who put the antimony into the sago totlild tit Mrs. JAMES'S bedside on the 10th. of June ? It was not—ccad not—have been the deceased herself. ..There is no room for supposing it got there through any accident: Neither was it the work of a stranger. ••• , • • We kno* eiaetly the names of the only parties who possibly could have done Two persons admit that they prepared sago for the deceased, on the evening of the ninth, or morning of the 10th, of June. Mrs. CAFFERATA Says she prepared one cupful before going to bed, and WINSLOW says he prepared another at five in the morning. Mrs. CAFFERATA swore that Mrs. JAMRS did not leave any of the sago which she had cooked, atid that she Wined and Oft away the cup she had used. The servant, MARGARET HIGGINS, swore that at half-past eight in the morning she removed and finished the contents of a cup of sago. which was then warm, but that there was a second cup, containing cold sago, which she allowed to remain on the table untouched. This, according to HIGGINS; would be the cup found by the police; containing antimony. There is some difficulty about the staterneiii of HiGGi - Ns, that the sago she took away was warm. If it was part of the quantity prepared by WINSLOW at five o'clock,, we must believe that a common tea cup standing on an open place will keep sago w'arm for about four hours. Is that likely—or e4eri possible l If it *fig not; and could not have been warm, why did she remove one cup rather than the other ? HIGGINS' statement and that of CAFFERATA'S about the tea and egg, and in other respects, are inconsistent with, if n o t fl a tly con tradictory to, each other, and One or other of these witnesses must, to say the very least of it, have been labouring under a most extraordinary del- Sion; if riot something more. To suspect either of them of falte s'earin'g were to implicate one or other as guilty of the poltddidig i or as acting in' concert with. its author. Is it unreasonable for us to ask what motives could have induced the one or' the other to conceal or Misrepresent the truth ? la frs. CAFFERATA'S case it could only have been to conceal her own giffit bltthere is not the slightest ground for supposing that she ad-: ministered the poison, or had any motive for destroying her aunt's life. In the case of the servant, the only motive likely to mislead her would seem too` have been that 'of shielding' her roaster rita ediiiitig his giatitttde by saving him from the gallOvis. We irripie lio motives to' anyone, nor do we pretend to judge the case ; we merely p - eint out" the unsatisfactory -stare-a-this important part of the evidence. As to the motive which led to the perpetration of this crime there seems to be but little doubt. Mrs. Shtg was murdered by some one who hoped thereby more speedily ter obtain possession of 0 Much, at least, of the deceased's property . It viraS shanclantly preVed that such a motive e' nzigitt have had a Place in Wirtslow's mind and it does not appear that it could have existed in the mind of any other of the parties, wh ;dlotie had it in their power to piit the antimony into the sago found on the 10th of /line. We are not, of course, entitled to inf er from this fact alone that WiNsLow's h an d did then acififinisttt that antimony ; hui the - fact, so far as it goes, is most impo'rterit, As t o th e verdict of the jury, whereby the prisoiiet has been set free, we have no complaint, for un-; doubtedly an important link of the chain of evidence necessary to form guilt was wanting— namely, evidenea that WiNsLow had been traf ficking with, and been recently possessed Of, antimony ; for iVe cartniot for a moment credit the titisitrdivtold story of his having been seen sprinkling white powder upon tread and butter for the deceased. The verdld of "not guilty" of course means no more than that the evidence was legally imperfect and incomplete. It does not clear away any suspicion, or assert the prisoner's . Ifffrooence; and if we have still reason, to fear that the gttilty has been set free, it is better that one murderer should go unhung than that we . should run the risk of executing an innocent man. Thus murderers of the blackest type now walk abroad and mingle freely in society, in open L defiance of all law and justiee. The Richmond poisoner lives ; the Canada Dock assassin is un known and unsuspected; the poisoner of Mrs. JAMES (whoever that may mean) is at liberty ; the Road murderer escapes detection; and the Stepney miscreant is still undetected. One might almost be excused for giving way to fear and mistrust in taking food froni the hands of our warmest friends, and some may even tremble in retiring to rest, in the knowledge of such guilty monsters being at large, and such atrocious crimes so frequently baffling the keenest and most sharp Witted investigation. When the most foul and enormous crimes may be perpetrated with impu nity, life is felt to be less safe from the assassin. A. feeling of personal insecurity must gain ground even in the strongest minds; while the nervous and feeble must' thereby be seriously unsettled; if not altogether unstrung. Such a state of matters strikes at the very roots of society, rolls . back the tide of civilisation, and reduces us to a state akin to savage life. We can understand that those living under the sway ofthe King of Dahomey feel them selves daily exposed to sudden or secret slaughter. If wandering unprotected, like GORDON CUMMING or Dr... LIVINGSTONE, among the wild tribes of Central Africa, we might lay our account for the chance of being murdered, with the probability of justice never being able to track the guilty and avenge the crime. But we are not prepared in this country, and at this time of day, quietl y , and as a matter of course, to submit to such a disastrous state of things. What has come of the - much-vaunted skill and penetration of our police and detective force, that,so many great crimes are permitted to remain so many great mysteries? What are men of science doing that, in every case of murder where their evidence is essential, there seems an inevitable amount of contradiction and uncertainty in their views P What an affront to our whole system of criminal jurisprudence and legal administration, which annually costs us such an enormous sum of money, that the law is now-a-days so frequently cheated of its proper victim ? There is clearly something wrong some where, and the sooner we set about discovering and remedying it the better for the suppression of crime, the preservation of life, and the general well-being of society. - EtTAL ACCIDENT.---About three weejfs, ago? a man named Thomas Stuart, 23 years of age, who was engaged at Messrs.

TIIVR:±DAY, August 23 The latest intelligence received here from Cen tral Italy dates that Naples continues tranquil, and that the GoVetriMent is preparing for an energetic resistance. The King has assumed the chief command of the troops ; and General Pia- nelli is to act under and beside him du Major., General.- The immediate younger brother of the King; the Count de Frani, was in command of the first battaliOn o Chtbsettis of the Guard ; and the Count de Caserte, the 6111'db - father, an officer in the artillery, of the first battery of rif(ed can non ;' the whole of the three royal young per ages gtterict• for several hours each day; to superintend iiianeenvies and drilling of the troops. News had redate4 Naples - that the fur-; ther disembarkations of the GariTiedini in Cala: bria were very numerous. They had becti everted for the most part at Capo dell-Armi, between Reggio and Melito. Garibaldi was sending emis saries into the other provinces to promote a general rising, and in this he had been very successful. Already information had reached Naples that a giedt fermentation prevailed in the Basilicate (Pasilicatej. It appears that the Dictator's object . in propagating tlre so Many different points at once, VVCISi to force the NeaPeitanGoVernment to " ffegarnirn," the capital, upon which. all the 'Abatis - of defence are concentrated. It is stated rEat, tlie Cabinet has taken the question into . consideration, &AI that, acting on General Pianelli's advice, it has Been &cided to adopt this course, and to con centrate every eltdrt on defending the city to the last extremity, it being the key of 64) " s ituation." The foregoing is the account whict: the semi official prints gave yesterday morning of fhe "situation," but no doubt you will have had oppor tunities by the time this reaches you, of testing the accuracy of these details, which, however, I incline to think are in the main correct. Vide i stall the same degree of mystery as to the exact nature of flie felations and understand ing between Count Cavour and eidritaldi; and a good deal of stress has been laid on the fact of the Sardinian officers having been recalled from Sicily ; much more, I think, than was necessary. It is also now stated that in order still further to absorb the bellicose element which supplies Gari baldi with so many volunteers, orders have been issued by the Sardinian Government for the orga nisation of national guards throughout the whole of the Piedmontcse territory ; but it is surely rather late in the day to have recourse to such a measure as this. It is stated that the Emperor, mi the occasion of his presiding at the opening of a large esta blishment at Lyons, will deliver an address, don taining sentiments of a nature quite as pacific as those which fell from him on a former similar occasion dt Bottrdeux. It is to be hoped that if he do, his sentiments *ill meet with fully as large a share of credibility as an the former occasion. There is a great stir in the diplomatic corps here at present. I formerly mentioned that. Prince Metternich had an audience of the Em peror at the camp at Chalons. I now learn that M. Kisseleff left Paris on Tuesday morning, that M. de la Tour d'Auvergne, the French Minister to the court at Berlin, has arrived here for instruc tions add that M. de Monstier, the French Minister td trfle 4ourt of Vienna, is expected to follow every day. It ie. plain, therefore, that something unusually important 19 'lip." A word on the subject of the theatres. The piece of M. Ponsard has given place to a curious suit. A yartrig danseuse, who figures in the fairy scene of the secoVd not, Mdlle. Virginie Magny, had felt herself at libalp during the interval which occurred in the representation of " Ce qui pldiait aux fentines," to accept an eng'ag'ement at the Porte St. Martin, where she. - was to appear as a fairy in the Pied de Milton. On the resump tion of the performance of M. Ponsard's comedy, the director of the Vaudeville claimed again the services of Mdlle: Magny, but the manager of the other theatre insisted on the young lady adhering to her engagement with hint On an appeal to the Court, the decision was given in favour of M. Luvine, of the Vaudeville, but he very hand- somely- waived his claim in favour of the other establishment, which could less easily dispense with the services of this attractive dentosielle, she being the manager's trump card in the seductive inise en sc'cue of the new Pied de Mouton, which has also created no little amount offurore. Another member of the coterie of English thieves; male and female, who have been pursuing their vocation industrielle with so much energy in this city, has just had an introduction to one of the police magistrates. In the present instance, the culprit was a " a fair and fresh-looking young person," habited in elegant attire. As she entered the court of the 6th chamber, accompanied by her escort of a couple of policemen, she modestly lowered her eyes, the colour mounted to her cheeks, and there was such a charming and touching timidity in the way she replied to the preliminary interrogatives put to her, that the whole of the persons present were at first disposed to think that she was the victim, and not the victimiser. A witness, however, steps forward to give her testimony. She is a lady of an age rather more mature, and her dress presents a striking contrast to that of the interesting and well dressed fair one in the dock. She gives the following explanation of the charge against the prisoner :—On the 4th of July last, I was leaving Messrs. Rothschild's, in the Rue Lafitte, where I had received a coupon for 400 francs. I placed the same carefully in my portemonnaie. All at once, I felt myself hustled, and I received a sort of shoe (bourrade). I turned round and perceived madame (the prisoner), who was walk ing on, without even begging my pardon for having lossbed against me. A sudden idea induced me to put my hand into my pocket, when, lo and behold my portemonnaie was gone. I set off running after madame, calling out " Au voleur" (stop thief,) and madame was seized. She affected the utmost astonishment, and complained also of having such a charge made against her. But her English accent aroused my suspicions as to the truth of her explanations, and I insisted on her being conducted to the nearest police station. Neither my money nor my portemonnaie has been recovered. She had had time to pass them to one of her accomplices, who, I am quite certain, remained behind for this purpose. Another portemonnaie containing about 169 francs in foreign money, was found on her person. The President of the Council, address. ing the handsome fair one, said : Well, Emily Harvey, what have you to say for yourself? You have stated in your declaration that you are a modiste in England ; you are not pur suing this avocation in Paris ; is it not some time since you came here ? to which Emily Hervey answered, in her sweet soft, voice, I came here in the month of June, last year. — President : How came you then not to make use of the same passport on this occasion ; it is still in force ? Prisoner : I have lost it. —President : You were along with a young girl of the name of Brown last year. Prisoner : No, I was alone. — President : You need not endeavour to make me believe that ;it is useless. You deny the fact because you know that the nephew of Mr. Fon taine has distinctly recognised this young girl as having come with you to purchase jewellery. Now, this girl Brown, is on e of the cle veres t female pickpockets (volcusc d la tire), and you your self, are not one whit less famous. Prisoner : I did not go there.—President : A M. Chegary is also positively certain that he has see n y ou come with the girl Brown into the Rue du H e ld er . Pri soner : Ile is m istaken.—President : Finally, a third witness h as sworn that h e saw you l as t year, whilst you were in the Garden of the Palais Royal, engaged in attentively examining what was going on in the shop of M. Fontana, the jeweller, who was some time afterwards the vic tim o f 0 , considerable robbery. Prisoner : He is likewise mistaken. By this time the sympathy of the audience, in behalf of Madame Emily Hervey, had undergone a sensible diminution. — President : What were you doing in the Rue Lafitte.? Prisoner : I was on my way to a money changers in the Boulevard, to get some English money changed into French.--President: Well, the prosecutor is of opinion that you were lingering about the approaches to M. Rothschild's, like most of your compatriots and accomplices, looking about for victims in the crowd of people who are passing and repassing through the vestibule and other places in that establishment. Why did you come to Paris ? The prisoner, after a moment's hesitation, and in a low voice, replied : To assist (assister) at the procession of the funeral of the King Jerome.—This was rather too much, and the court, after going into the case, condemned Madame Hervey to fifteen mouths' imprisonment, and ordered that at the expiration of her period of punishment she should remain under the surveillance of the superior police during five years. If I were to refer to the state of things at the Bourse yesterday, I should merely have to repsat my statement of the previous day—it continues toujours le nieine. ITALY. (FROM OCR OWN CORRESPONDENT.) MILAN, August 20. The two most important questions after Gari baldi, Sicily, and Naples, which now occupy a large share of public attention, are ; first, the Minister' of the Interior's circular addressed to the governors and mayors of the Kingdom, but which is more directly intended to justify in the eyes of Europe the course pursued by the Govern nient in regard to the Sicilian expeditions, and to thro4rt oit aft unmistakeable hint that the Govern ment is (fete:mined to put a stop to those illegal proceedings, What have b'eert lately tarried on within the States of the i'_:,ingdoth, by Men who have not the slightest moral or public reSpotisiz bilitv upon their t ;29ulders, and•whoie acts Were t calculated to plunge the country into the greqtes p;:tted invasion of th 6 peril, by the late =tem PEtrol States, coupled with the se means that were adopted by the same "patriots" to spread the. mania of dose - Ilia:I among the young b s . il dier s of the army, in order to join the farces of Garibao. The second is the supposed menacing note which. Count Rechberg is said to have addressed to Prince. Metternich, the Avetrian Ambassador at Paris, advising the Federal Godiernmbet of the deter- , mination of Austria no longer to remain a silent spectator of events which are rapidly passing IlefOte her eyes, and at every moment threaten the invasion of the lawful States of the Empire• which have btIITY granted to her by the treaty of 1815. The first question, tistmeln, Farini's circular, must take precedence, ivasrm*.h as it has been. since Tuesday last the principal theme with the Milan and Turin press, and is still warmly dis cussed by the Uitionc, Diritto, Pungo/o, and other journals, whose politics, if they dared to avow them, are the very W . ost description of red. Republicanism. These prints. now insultingly' taunt the Government for having indirectly assisted the various expeditions that have already' left for Sicily ; and so soon as the fair is abeht to extend itself upon a larger scale, out rushes. Farini, who says we have purposely closed' our eyes against your expeditions to free the and if it were possible to spread revolution amclig4 the apathetic - Neapolitans, but you must mitt attempt to violate the States of the Pope. "Is this the language and' bold energetic policy" shout in chorus these democratic scribblers worthy of a free and constitutional Government, supported as it is and would be by the unanimous voice of the nation, that would make every sacrifice to support the Government in an onward and fearless policy ? Are not the Neapolitans. our suffering brethren ? Are not the Romans our. brethren and sinking under the despotism of the Pope ? Are not the Venetians our brethren and worthy of their liberty ?" In fact, these journals would drive Piedmont into open war with Francis 11., the .Pope, the Emperor of the French, and Austria, without permitting them selves one moment to reflect what might be the• consequences of madly hurling the nalion' into. such difficulties, that would inevitably end itt, hey utter ruin. These men and journals shout about the ready' sacrifices that would be made by the nation to sustain the government in its onward and fearless policy, or in other words, in the dethronement of the remaining legitiMate Princes of Italy, in order to incorporate the same under one head, Victor Emmanuel. King of Italy! I should like to ask those wide-mouthed politicians if the gov - ernrnent of Piedmont was compelled to sus tain for one year or eighteen months a costly war, would they be the first to come forward and. make these sacrifices which the nation would have a right to expect from such warm patriots ? Would they not be the first to button- , 2p their pockets and sneak into some hole out of sight, or growling between their teeth, we have nothing to give you, accompanied with, who asked your too go to war ? For whom have you taken upon yourself this risk and enormous outlay to sustain such a war? Go and appeal to England and! France. And who can resist the soul-stirring pathos, and exquisite poetical periods of those appeals for which the richness and beauty of the Italian language is so admirably adapted ? Again,. I will ask, should the government be compelled to make repeated calls upon the nation to sustain: her in her struggle, would not Lombardy, if not louldly cry out, secretly desire for the moment to. welcome back the Austrians ? Would not the Emilian Provinces, Tuscany and the Romagna& occasion grave embarrassment to the Sardinian government ? Allow me to carry this hypothesis. still further by also asking these enthusiastic politicians, should Piedmont at the onset of a war• with either Austria, Francis 11, or the Pope, have the misfortune to sustain even the most trifling ; defeat, would not these men be the first to turn, round and hurl the bitterest reproaches at the. government ? Would they not cry out—" For whom have you risked the liberty of more than. twelve millions of Italians ? Did the Neapoli tans call upon you to assist them by rising in , open revolt like the Sicilians? Could you not. content yourself or form a power sufficiently strong—embracing the old kingdom of Sardinia, with Lombardy, Parma, Piacenza, Modena, Tus cany, the Romagnas, and Sicily —of united Italians to defy Austria, Francis 11, and the Pope? Why did you not accept the' proposed alliance offered you by Naples, having before your eyes the experience of 1848 ? • This may be considered a plain and bold manner of bringing the subject before your readers; but it is so true, that I defy any man either to deny or adduce any facts or argument to dispute the same. It is a notorious truth, that Cavour and .. the Ministry, with the kingdom as at present con stituted, have a task sufficiently gigantic, and surrounded by almost insurmountable difficulties, as to be scarcely able, with all their capacity and forbearance, to keep their house in order. Would not a further extension of their premises . (metaphorically speaking) end in such a chaos as. to be beyond the capacity of any human being to bring to anything like working order. It is the very existence of these hostile elements clashing against each other, and which are so characteristic among the Italians, that will render impossible the joining of the south with the north of Italy. I now come to the next question. Has the Austrian Government really written a note to Metternich to read to the French Government, expressing the determination of Austria to break through her neutrality, and take an active part in the affairs of Italy, immediately that Gari baldi embarks on the mainland, and declare war against Piedmont ? The French and Italian. journals are very contradictory upon this subject. —some assert, in the most positive manner, that• the existence of this note is a mere invention, and others as stoutly assert that it not only exists,. and has been read to Thouvenel, but in a day or two a copy of the same will be sent to the govern ment at Turin, which will be tantamount to a. declaration of war. Now, I will not say that this note does or does not exist ; but this I will say,. and assert in the most positive manner, that Austria will not wait to move the immense forces she has in the Tyrol, Verona, and Venice, until Garibaldi is before Venice, with the Neapolitan fleet on one side, and his army, backed up by that of Piedmont, on the other. Is it reasonable that Austria, knowing the declared intentions of Garibaldi, and the hostile feelings of Piedmont ... against her, will wait until they unite the armies of Naples and Rome (always presuming that Garibaldi succeeds in vanquishing Planelli and Bosco) to extend their triumphant march to the gates of Verona ? Austria must break asunder for her own salvation those bonds which the peace of Villafranca imposed upon her. If we turn our eyes either towards the Mincio, Po, Verona, Venice, or the Tyrol, we find that Austria has been, for the last six months, making the most active preparations and concentration of of troops ; having now, in these provinces, a force Little short of 200,000 men. The Perseveranza, although asserting that Austria, with the ex perience of 1859, will never be so mad as to attempt another campaign, admits that the military preparations now going on "is a vast entrenched camp, larger than the whole of Venice, and all her fortresses supplied with inv.
