The 14essina telegrams of the 19th and6th,4ninst. 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

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 161,301,851.; that of France,
36,030,364 ; 'that of Prussia, 17,739,913 ; that of
Austria, 371,339,912 ; that lof 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 mstftblishment 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 rtalrtably 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 601000
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. The artillery 'u ill be under the
Command of Lord Londesboiough, colonel of the
Hull brigade. Lord Hotham, M.P., the Hon.
Admiral Puncombe,- M.P., James Clay, Esq., kt.p.,
J. 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. Viscount Palmerston and a large party of his
colleagues came by water from Westminster, the Citizen
learner being engaged for the purpose.

TheAgapeiiione was again stormed on Tiiesday last.

against
Priceites of Bridgewater have declared war
against lhe Princeites of Spaxton-. The alarm bell has
been sounded, and the Princeites have had again to don
;heir armour in the "Abode of Love." - Forty. noble
folunteers, commanded by the Rev. Lewis Price
uul his warlike legal advisor, headed the Forlorn
Elope. The walls were scaled; 'and a lusty volunteer,
;rowbar in hand, forced open the door of this mysterious
Retreat, and beheld the Printeitesia a warlike attitude
sconced.behind a formidable barricade of chairs, tables,
nd other articles of furniture, determined to oppose the
further pro'gress'af the invaders. An armistice, how-
ever, was agreed upon, whilst six of the noble volunteers/

with their reverend leader, searched every 'nook, cornet,
and cupboard of the Agai)emone, but they were obliged
to depart; for Mit Price hdd gone foith frdni the abode
of Icri/e.
