THE DAY'S NEWS,

TUES_DAY, if-AY 29, 1860.

The Whitsuntide holidays have been ushered
in by tempestuous , gales, and an unwelcome fall
in the temperature ; and the thousands of shiver-
ing excursionists who have thronged our streets
seemed but in little enjoyment of " the jocund
wake." The gale was the highest which we, have
had since that in which the Royal Charter was
lost. -Se-veral serious disasters, it will be seen,
have occurred on the river ; and it is to be feared
that still worse casualties remain to be reported.
Owing .to the holidays and
,the Parliamentary
recess, there is a comparative dearth of news at
present, and most of -the public interest appears
concentrated on the movements of Garibaldi, as
affecting the fate of Sicily. We are still without
reliable information, and the telegrams, which
" literally palter with us in a double sense," only
increase the perplexity; A French provincial
paper has been attempting statistics on the sub-
ject. "Of 172 telegrams," says the-Journal
Puy de ii6nte, which we have received within
the last fifteen days, 134 proved to be false,
the accuracy of 14 has been disputed, and is
still doubtful 10 are do longor thought of ;
8 hare had the honour to pb,ss as probable ;
and 6 only are admitted to be true." All
that seems definite is that Garibaldi still
threatens Palermo, but has not yet ventured upon
an assault. A Neapolitan official telegram repre-
sents that the insurgents have been repulsed with
great loss; and a telegram froth thethe Austrian
Embassy at Naples is to the like effect: Accord-
ing to the Patric, however, the fall of Palertho is
inevitable, and is , only a question Of tiMO; and
that Palermo captured, Garibaldi, will then
declare Sicily annexed to the Italian Kingdom,
reserving the ratification of his resolution to
universal suffrage. The success of the insurgent
chief will, however, only add one further element
of danger. to the present threatening aspect of
affairs in Europe.
The Sardinian Chambers are irritating France
by a Useless discussion on the treaty ceding Savoy
and Nice—useless because Piedmont, if disposed,

could not BOW recede; and 'manse the treaty is
certain to meet the approval of the great majority
of the members. The question of Sicily must be
one of much greater embarrassment to the King
and his advisers', as it is scarcely postible that a
position. .tit can be much longer main-
tained. There have been numerous desertions
from the army of Central Italy, to join Garibaldi;
and at Ferrara about 750 men—infantry, horse,
and artillery..--had thus broken from their alle-
glattb.

The Eastern question at intervals still looms up
darkly in the future. "I don't delight," says the
Paris correspondent of the Daily Yews, on Fri-
, day evening, " in playing the part of ari alarmist,
but.i Will never take upon myself the responsi-
bility of rippressing the truth from the fear of
being taken for one. it is within my knoW
ledge that one of the Emperor's most intimate
councillors lately said, in the hearing of
several people,these words We are on the
point of twisting the neck of England on the
Oriental question!' What this very stretched
metaphor May Mean exactly I do not pretend to
say. But this Ido well remember, that, so. ong
ago 043 the peace of irillafranca; which the
English press denoUnced *ith a severity entirely
justified by the' now recognised event of its utter
failure, the unavoived organs of the French
Government were continually hinting that
revenge would be taken on England in the East.
This idea has late!y been ventilated with a
renewed impetus. EVerbody expects that the
text of M. de Lavalette's speech to the
Sultan, which must come out within a few
hours, will be alarming, and will disclose

a policy concerted with . Russia such as
England cannot, in all likelihood, approve of. I
am far from saying that a cams belli is likely to
arise. On the contrary, I think that every move
ofithe Imperial policy with regard to England is
nitely calculated with a view not to overstep the
bounds of her patience. I may possibly have
vein of fallen to-day upon an exaggerated Tem ofinfor-
mation, but I make no doubt that, in one form or I
other, the Eastern question' will very speedily
eclipse the Italian one."
The Emperor of the French remains inscrutable
as to his contemplated 'policy. The army, how-
ever, is kept up iu full strength. Recruits are
refused exemption ; and great exertions are being
made to bring the Imperial Guard up to the full
war complement. The different regiments in gar-
rison have also been furnished with camping
utensils and tents, so as to be ready for instant
removal. ' Louis Napoleon all this time is said to
he busily engaged in writing a life of Julius
Caesar ; and if we can credit the inspiration of an
article in the Constitutionnel, there are great
hopes that the barbarous passport aystem will
shortly be abolikied in Prance. •

such as the Chinc.4e hoPed and prObably expected

may, transports from India with troops arrive
daily in tow of steamers, and the steamer Bere-
nice has brought from Siiez a battery of Arm-
strong's guns. The troops, as they arrive, are
landed and encamped on tlowloon.

By tte.West India and Pacific mail, we have
advises from the west coast of South America
which state that earthquakes occurred at Callao,
Lima, and Chorillos, on the 27th and 28th ult.
There is not a dwelling in Callao, Lima, or Cho-
rillos that 'has not suffered damage. More than
fifty shocks were felt in seventy-two, hours,—
walls cracked, roofs fallen in, people Wounded,
and churches left in such a condition that steeples
would have to be torn down.

Our domestic news is. very limited. A Radical
association has been formed in London, with a
branch in Manchester, to resist the action of the
House of Lords in retaining the excise duty on
paper. This odd association has chosen for itself
the trtal-apivpos title of " The Constitutional
Defence Committee !" We regret to find
threatened. renewal 'of. the strike amongst the
building trades in London, the object being to
limit the period of labour to nine hours a day.
The Times endeavours to dissuade the operatives
from their intention, showing them that th.ey
have no right to expect ten hours' pay for nine
hours' work.

The trade and navigation returns for the month
and the four months ending April 30, 1860, have
been issued. The total declared value of the
exports of the British and Irish produce for the
month of" April last is £11,352,440, as compared
with £11,330,730 for .1859. For the four
months ending the same date the exports were
£41,834,347, the exports for 1859 having been
£41,851,524, and for 1858, £32,961,723.

The Times of yesterday makes somewhat merry
at the expense of Mr. Bright, in an excellent
article on the Wakefield election. "We had," it
says, " on Friday night, one of the most amusing
debates which have recently occurred in the
House of Commons. Upon all former occasions
the leaders of all parties have come out vehemently,
horror-stricken at the very idea of bribery; now
they come oilily, gently, and blandly before
the, 11ouse, appealing to the Attorney-General
and sneaking of htithanitv, mercy, and the
efficacy of open confession. Sir Hugh Cairns and
Mr. Walpole were most anxious to take the
Attorney-General's responsibility upon them-
selves, inviting him to cast upon the House
the responsibility of a merciful neglect of duty.
Mr. Whiteside used the argument most likely
to occur to an Irish lawyer, and assured the
public prosecutor that he would never get
a jury to convict. But the most curious
exhibition was that of Mr. Bright appealing
ad misericordiant in favour of a relative in peril
of dreadful penalties for electorial corruption.
It was strange indeed to hear this Cleon, who
has been so fierce and unrelenting in the perse-
cution of other men, now appealing to a pub-
lic prosecutor to forego his duty in defe-
rence to a desire expressed in the House of
Conimons by friends of great public offenders.
't'he Attorney-General, however, insisted upon
doing his duty, unless the House of Commons
would release him by a formal resolution. He
taunted the House with being guilty of the most
solemn mockery and hypocrisy,' and he called
their Act of Parliament a piece of hypocrisy and
imposition on the public.' It was a startling
spectacle was that Howe of Commons' debate

tion, and the authors of the sentence he
