THE DAY'S NEWS.

We are still without reliable intelligence from
Sicily. The Neapolitan official despatches repre-

sent the insurgents as in full flight. The Globe
of last night, however, contains a despatch to the
to the opposite 'effeCte=that Garibaldi and the
insurgents had gained possession of a great part
of Palermo, many of the Royal troops, as was
expected, having risen against their Neapolitan
commanders. The forts and ships of war had
been firing on the city. This news is confirmed
by a despatch received at Turin, and published in
the official gazette of yesterday. It kilns briefly :
" The instirgerits 'have mitered Palermo. A con-
siderable part of the _population have risen against
the Royal troops. The city is bombarded by sea
and land." If this be true, we shall doubtless be
able to render further particulars in the later
editions of this day's paper.
In the present uncertain state of European
politics and policy, every step of Louis Napoleon—
who is the central figure around which all

revolves—is" accepted as significant ; and the
various Paris correspondents of the London
papers carefully chronicle his movements, The
Emperor, it is said, has expressed an intention
to go to tyoiiis this week to meet the Empress
Dowager of Russia, " who has received important
despatches from St. Petersburg, about which the
Emperor wishes to confer with her." They
refer of course to the Eastern question ; but amidst
all the complications which European polities
are supposed to present, his Majesty, it would
appear, has found time td listen to a deputation,
consisting largely of English gentlemen, on behalf of
the scheme for wedding the Atlantic and Pacific
by the Honduras Inter-Oceanic Railway. On
learning that the route would be open alike to
France, England, and'America, he promised the

enterprise his cordial support • and protection.
Trade is very dull in France at present. It was

generally believed in commercial circles that the
inauguration of the new Customs tariff, and the
consequent new commercial regime, would restore

confidence and give neW life to enterprise. Such,
however, has not been the case ; and the free-
trade measures have so far proved a failure.
There is too much reason to fear, whatever may
have been the last reply of the Celestial Govern-
ment to our demands, that we shall shortly be at
active war with China. It is significant that, on
the arrival of the Mail, a large draught from the
depots at Chatham has been ordered to be
despatched there; and the Globe learns; by pri-
vate accounts, that Chusan was to have been occu-
pied on the 9th of April by a brigade consisting
of the 67th and 69th Regiments and a battalion of
. •
Marines, under Colonel Reevesi of the 99th ; but
it was not likely that a general move northwards
would take place before the middle of the present
30
month.

Diplomatic gossip is still busy with the alleged
intercepted letter from the Prince Regent of

Prussia to our own Prince Consort: The authen-
ticity of the reported coyiversation which we gave

yesterday, bet Ween the Minister of Foreign
Affairs and the French Anibassadth: at has

been denied;' but no denial has been attempted

of the e2c*cnc9 of such a letter.- The Times
says No doubt it was real. No doubt the

poor Prince Regent of Prussia, having found,
as he thought, a sympathetic German breast
in Prince Albert, disburdened himself of a
pang or a misgiving, oi perhaVs az opinion; of
which the subject was the Emperor over the way.
Can any two Germans talk half an hdur without

a word about France ? But sovereigns and

princes,--what are they to do r Are they to be
treated like young ladies at a boarding school,
and have their letters read by their constituted
advisers P Theirs is a very bad case. • Only think
of not being allowed to say a word about Napo-
leon 111., even to one's most intimate friend !
That, it seems, is expected of high personages.
But ,a by should the Emperor wish to know
or to recognise the disagreeable things said
of him ? Here .is another stepping-stone
through the slough of European politics. It
offers the opportunity of a personal interview,
so it is stated 13/ the foreign papers, with the
Prince Regent of Prussia. 'ln that interview
what may not be said ? Napoleon I. was great
at interviews, and managed to have a conversa-
tion with every European potentate in turn,
excepting the obstinate old gentleman on this
side of the channel. For many reasons it answers
the purpose of the French Autocrat to conduct
his negotiations with the chief himself, and dis-
pense with ministers. It tends to universal abso-
lutism. The negotiation of. our commercial treaty
has been effected in this fashion, and is about as
little of a national or constitutional aff •
air as was
ever done in our history. A meeting between the
Prince Regent of Prussia and Napoleon 111. on
the banks of the Rhine sounds almost too like the
fable ever to take place ; but we wish the Prince
well out of it. Prince Albert will probably be
guarded in future in his communications with
German Princes as well as with German philo-
sophers. It's all sure to come out one way or
another. We trust this mishap has not been here,
