THE

" dve for Italy." France and England are the
onlyNations' who can give the assistanee sought
on all hands. And here commences the difficulties
of a solution of the great problem—what is to be
done ? There is not another question on which the
French would express an opinion with greater
delicacy. Nor is there another State in whose
affairs any interference on the part of England is

beset with so many difficulties? This country can
have no unmanly feelings or deep sinister designs
to interfere with her international relations with
the Papal Dominions ; and France would not
place any re

liance on schemes which were not
based on the broad principles of even-handed
justice, and advancement of a consistent Euro-
pean policy. Taking this for granted, and
casting all party and minor considerations
aside, what is to prevent the Italian Peninsula's
being rescued from its abnormal condition, and
the blessings of union and independence restored
to its people ?

If we allow no petty obstacles to stand in the
way of Italian regeneration, it is time we addressed
ourselves to the great and, apparently, insurmount-
able obstructions which stand in the way of the
good work. Taking these seriatim will help the
reader to a correct knowledge of the mighty
diplomatic matters to be taken into account by the
Allied Powers. First of all, there is the extreme
dislike all the States of Europe evince when called
on to interfere with affairs of Rome. This unwil-
lingness is too notorious to be denied. Secondly'
an Austrian army occupies the richest of the
Papal States, and whilst the Pope would not
entrust them with the defence of his capital, he
trembles at the thoughts of their withdrawal from
cities. Thirdly, while a French army holds
the keys of the city of Rome, that force can afford
no relief to Italy, except by the expulsion of the
Austrians, and encountering the danger of a
European war. There is in this brief synthesis
of complexities, much to embarrass the most
ardent friends and determinied enemies of the
Pontifical Government. Italy, in fact, presents
at this moment, an equally fair field for MAzzINI
and his revolutionists. Austria and her
outrages, France and her natural delicacies,
and Great Britain and her perception of
accumulating dangers.

But this state of things cannot last much longer.
Piedmont has not the strength to grapple with the
Austrians, and France will be slow in identifying
herself with the policy of that State. VICTOR
EMANUEL will find England a sorry ally in the
time of need. We have not a pretext even to
justify our following the policy of Sardinia. It
would involve us in bitter controversies and endless
troubles at home. If the Piedmontese rely on
the EMPEROR NAPOLEON, they will be deceiving
themselves, as France has no idea of sanctioning
changes which would deprive the PONTIFF of any
portion of his spiritual or temporal power. It is
ridiculous, then, to look to Piedmont for
the deliverance of Italy. And there appears to
be a certain degree of recklessness about those
who would encourage so weak a nation in a belief
that they are expected to embark in a work wholly
beyond their strength, and relying on support
which will not, or cannot, be afforded to them in
their need. The diplomatic design may be to
make Sardinia the point from which to attack the
Austrians, but here we make a belligerent of
the POPE, whose desire manifestly is to cling to
FRANCIS JosEpa, in preference to all other Conti-

nental monarchs

What then, we may well ask, is to be done for
Italy ? The centre from which all the cardinal
virtues of humanity once dated, has now become
the point on which the worst dangers that can
beset a people are revolving with an intensity
scarcely to be described. There never was a
State, perhaps, whose resources have been so
slightly impaired by the ravages of time, and still
there never was a nation so poor, dejected, and
prostrate. Such phenomena explain them-
selves, and we leave those who would
improve with time to ponder over the
cause and effect in this instance. The desire of
every Englishman must be to see Italy great,
happy, and free; but we cannot be expected to
risk the peace of the world for the welfare of any
individual State. We cannot be asked, in reason,
to pursue a course which would fill our own
country with discord and strife, in order to give
others the blessings of peace and harmony. The
condition of the Papal Powers is purely a Con-
tinental question, and in its discussion France and
Sardinia must be prepared to take the chief burden
upon themselves. It is only in case Austria
should push her conquests to the gates of Rome,
and on to the shores of the Mediterranean, that we
should be called on to interfere. In the event of
a revolution, ending in a reign of unbridled
ruffianism, whether foreign or domestic, it might
be necessary to interpose a strong arm on
behalf of humanity. But until either of these
calamities befals the Italians, we can only offer
friendly counsel to all parties.
• If the Emperor NAPOLEON can persuade FRANCIS
JOSEPH to withdraw his troops from the Papal
States, and will undertake to supply their place
by a French force, and moderate government,
the impending disasters may be averted,
but unless this can be effected, and with
the POPE'S concurrence, the question will
again arise, and with four-fold force—What
is to be done for Italy? As for Mezzim,
his days as a demagogue are numbered. His
name is only used as a hobgoblin to frighten Aus-
trian recruits, and certain members of the Vatican.
The Italians have long since discovered that his
cause is hopeless, without the sanction of the Great
Powers who have taken the destinies of their
country out of the hands of revolutionists. The
difficulties of Italy are totally dissimilar to those
which caused MAZZINI'S rise. The circumstances
which led to his fall alone remain unchanged. He
cannot combat the French in Rome, or the
Austrians in the provinces ; and if ho should
succeed in involving these two Powers in a war,
ho cannot hope to vanquish the victors. And
if, in the bitterness of his despair, he has
dared to preach assassination to a wretched
and infuriated people. it is to be hoped the

execration of mankind will follow him through
the world, and to the end of his days.

Tux defeat of the Public Health Bill, in the
House of Commons on Tuesday, ought to serve as
a warning to all centralisation mongers. The
objections raised to that measure were, that it was
despotic, interfered with the rights of private
property, and provided for the continuance of that
monster centralisation engine—the General Board
of Health. On these simple, but all-sufficient
grounds, it was rejected iu a House of 13 t mem-
by a majority of twelve. It was perfectly
outrageous to think of bringing forward such a
bill, so late in the session. The clauses it con-
tains number just 200, and did the Government
suppose for one moment, that such a ponderous
mass of matter could have been read and digested
in a fortnight or three weeks? Nothing of the
kind. The object was to get it passed quickly, and

NORTHERN TIMES.-

without any unnecessary attention. But the cent
tralising policy of the Government must be tested
in its entirety, beibre any of these attempts at
cutting up the local self_government of the country
in detail, are suffered to become law. It is
necessary, also, that Parliament should know
what good a public board has done, in return for
the money it has cost, before its continuance is
sanctioned.

Mr. DIINCOMBE called attention specially to this
portion of the subject, while Mr. PALK contended
that the Bill " grasped at a despotism which the
" House of Commons would never tolerate." This,
then, appears to be a counterpart of Mr. LowE's
Passing Tolls and Towns' Dues Bill, and it is high
time that the Sanitary Boards and Ratepayers
throughout the kingdom looked closely to what is
in store for them. A stop must some day be put
to the present system of central board manage-
ment, and the sooner we resist ftirther encroach-
ments on the rights of local self-government the
shorter the contest will be. What has the central
Board of Health done for Liverpool? We have
an efficient local committee to conduct our sanitary
affairs, and when they neglect their duty, and act
wrong in any other way, the Burgesses have a
salutary remedy in their hands. Sending active
and intelligent men into the Town Council is an
effectual way of getting rid of drones and imbe-
ciles, when they are discovered. Every Ratepayer
knows what to do with a local body, but there
was no one ready to tell the House of Com•
mons what the General Board of Health had
done for the heavy expense they have put the
country to. It may be all very well to have a rod
to hold in terrorunt over the head of our refractory
local spirits, but we have a perfect fasces close at
home. The Council Chamber of Liverpool is
anything but any elysium for backsliders. Our
Local Committeemen know this, and they would
as soon encounter the three Furies, in the dark
shades of Mount Vesuius, as face certain members
of their own body-corporate with soiled hands.
But the Ministerial assumption of the day
appears to be, that local boards are totally devoid
of the capacity required for the management of
the affairs entrusted to them. This is the false
impression—the sublime delusion, we have to
remove, and when put to it, the government, no
matter what their politics may be, will find that we
are quite equal to the task. Our Town Council
will be able to defend itself against all innovations,
notwithstanding it cannot enlarge the sphere of
its own usefulness, or reform itself. The Rate-
payers will also be ready to show that they quite
understand the difference between reforming
the administration of local affairs and demolish..
ing the whole structure of local self-govern-
ment. It may only require one or two
more attempts similar to that made upon
our Corporate income, to lead to a demonstra-
tion of these dormant attributes, and, we have no
doubt, from the tone of the opposition raised to
the Public Health Bill, that it is just one of those
measures which will put our local government
men on their metal.

That a Cabinet measure of such vast importance
should have been entrusted to Mr. COWPER and
Mr. BAINES, does appear strange. Mr. LOWE ought
to have had all the centralisation business of the
session. There is not a man in the House of
Commons who can do more in that way than the
Vice-President of the Board of Trade. Probably
Mr. LOWE has had enough of centralisation, and
that he intends to throw it henceforth on Mr.
COWPER and Mr. BAINES. If so, our advice to those
two honourable members would be very concise—
have nothing to do with it, leave it to those who
understand it politically, philosophically, and, we
may add, mathematically. The right honourable
gentleman has wheedled Manchester into centra-
lisation. Need we say anything more ? Would
any man believe such a thing possible if he
had not witnessed it ? And that he should have
failed, after so remarkable a triumph, is beyond all
comprehension. It is unmerciful, however, to
crow over a fallen foe. We shall, therefore, take
our leave of the memorable centralising measures
of this stormy session, and wait quietly for the
return of another meeting of Parliament, when we
hope to find the friends and supporters of the
Constitutional rights of self-goveanment, up and
ready to oppose every attempt to trample on our
civil liberties.

CALVE ELEcrxoN.—Sir W. F. Williams of Kars was
yesterday elected member for Caine without opposition.

THE ACCIDENT TO LORD HARDINGE.—We rejoice to
state that the enquiries made yesterday at the town
residence of the noble and gallant viscount were answered
by the announcement that his lordship was " going on
favourably."

THE MURDEROUS ASSAULT ON THE PRISON WARDER.
—Yesterday, at the Central Criminal Court, John Wilson,
whose murderous assault on one of the warders of Coldbath-
fields prison we recorded some days since, was convicted
of the assault, with intent to do grievous bodily harm, and
sentenced, by Mr. Justice Coleridge, to transportation for
twenty years.

MUTINY IN THE TIPPERARY MILITIA.—We yesterday
announced, on the authority of the Limerick Reporter,
that an emeute had taken place in the North Tipperary
Militia, stationed at Nenagh. Later intelligence informs
us that the movement proves to be a mutiny in that
regiment, and we learn that Major-General Sir J. W.
Chatterton, commanding the Cork district, dispatched a
large body of troops of the line from Limerick to quell the
mutiny. On Tuesday evening 520 men from different
regiments arrived in Nenagh, and being admitted into the
barracks without opposition, demanded of the militia to
give up their arms, which they refused. Some firing
occurred outside, and during the affray some five or six of
the regulars were wounded and one killed. A civilian was
shot dead. The militia mutineers were, however, taken
prisoners, having had three killed and eight wounded.

Txx Cox; EXCHANGE.—The annual meeting of the pro-
prietors of the Corn Exchange was yesterday held in
Water-street. The business was, we understand, purely of
a routine character.

SUDDEN DEATH.—Yesterday, shortly after one o'clock,
a gentleman entered one of the Falkland-square omni-
buses at the upper end of Lord-street. The omnibus had
scarcely reached the Philharmonic building at the top of
13ardman•street, when he fell off the seat dead. It was
ascertained that deceased had resided in Lowther-street,
and his body was accordingly conveyed there previous to
an inquest being held.

SINGULAR FRIVICITY OF A HORSE.—OR Monday morning
a stallion and a mare were left standing in Vauxhall-road
for a few minutes before being harnessed to a cart to
proceed to the north shore mill. Suddenly both horses
started off and dashed at full speed along Vauxhall-road.
They had got some distance along when a police officer
rushed at them and succeeded in catching the mare by the
head. The stallion immediately turned upon the officer,
seized him by the wrist with his teeth, dragged him away,
and flung him violently into the centre of the road. The
animals continued their flight. A little further on a
labouring man also seized the mare, upon which the fero-
cious stallion seized him also with his teeth, dragged him
away, and flung him down. By this time the carter came
up, and called out the stallion's name. The stallion
stopped, looked behind, and seeing the carter rushed at
him, seized with his teeth by the collar bone, flung him
down, and knelt upon him. The fate of the carter would
have been soon decided here, as the savage brute con-
tinued crushing him with his knees, but that a consider-
able number of workmen had by this time come up, who
collected round the animals, and with stones and clubs
succeeded after much difficulty as well as danger in rescu-
ing the carter from the horse. They then also succeeded
in securing the animal. The officer and the carter-were
both removed to the Northern Hospital. The carter has
suffered very severe contusions, and the injury received
by the officer is so great that it is as yet questionable
whether the amputation of his hand will not be rendered
necessary.

MONETARY AND COMMERCIAL

LIVERPOOL, WEDNESDAY EVENING

The Cotton Market has been steady to-day, and
prices firm, but the business done has not been
large--the sales amounting to 7,000 bales, of which
1,500 have been taken for speculation and
export. _ _

The Share Market has been steady and firm,
prices, however, towards the close were rather
easier, closing at the following quotations :—Aber-

Letters from Paris mention that the matter is
spoken of in reliable quarters, of an extraordinary
session of the Legislative Body being convened
shortly, for the purpose of voting a New Loan of
300,000,000 f, as being necessary to cover the re-
maining expenses of the war. Should this be
determined upon by the Imperial Government, it
is probable that the funding of Treasury Bonds
will not be resorted to; at the same time, there is
no doubt that the call for a New Loan will tend
further to depress financial matters in Paris. We
learn also that a decline occurred in the price of
the Rentes yesterday. This unfavourable move•
ment is atttributod to an increased demand for
money for commercial purposes, and to the absence
of Most of the principal capitalists and speculators
who are now taking their usual holiday.
This day there was a meeting of the Alliance
Bank at the London Tavern, at which a statement
was made by the directors. From this it appeared
that since the establishment of the bank, at the
beginning of the year, a nett profit of 6,6261 lOs 6d
had been made. The statement was received as
satisfactory.

The half yearly meeting of the Colonial Bank
was also held this day, C. Alarryat, Esq , in the
chair. The nett profits were 20,8681 Hs 6d, out
of which the directors recommended a dividend of
21 per cent, being at the rate of 5 per cent per
annum. The report was adopted.
The Funds to-day exhibited no new feature of
importance. .After standing during the greater
part of the morning at a reduction of per cent.,
the market closed the same as yesterday. Consols
opened at 952 to 95:Z, and closed at 951 to 951 In
face of the preparations for the settlement, and of
the continued efflux of gold to the continent, prices
exhibit great steadiness. The disposition to operate
for the rise, however, has received a check. There
are numerous discussions as to whether the less
favourable appearance of the foreign exchanges
may not induce the Bank to further postpone a
reduction of its rate of discount to 4 per cent.
There was to-day a good supply of money in all
quarters, and the rates continue fully per cent.
below those of the Bank.

In Foreign Stock the business is very quiet, and
the fluctuation is still chiefly confined to Turkish
Six per Cents. Other descriptions were quiet.
The Foreign Exchanges have a drooping tendency.
The Railway Share Market is generally steady,
but the transactions were not numerous.

INSTITUTIONAL ASSOCIATION OF LANCASHIRE. AND

CHESHIRE.—The annual excursion or rural gathering of
the members of the Institutional Association of Lancashire
and Cheshire, is to take place in the park before Worsley
Hall, on Saturday. 16th August. The association includes
ninety mechanics' institutes, the members of which, with
their wives, sisters, and sweethearts, have had the privilege
of this pleasant excursion granted them through the kind-
ness of the Earl of Ellesmere.
A NOVEL ARGUMENT FOR POPULAR AMUSEMENTS .
Yesterday, at the police-office, not more than a dozen
prisoners, including drunk and disorderly cases, were
brought up before the magistrates sitting in both courts.
Astonished at this very extraordinary circumstance, the
reporters enquired among the police for the cause of it,
one of the most experienced and intelligent inspectors in
the force replied—" They could not afford to spend their
money in town last night, and they were afraid to rob.
They would have lost the races."

THE FUSILIER GUARDS IN LIVERPOOL.—Yesterday,
a baggage-guard of this distinguished regiment arrived by
the London and North Western Railway at the station in
Lime-street. In the course of- this day it is expected that
the remainder, mustering nearly 1,100 strong, exclusive of
officers, will follow. 'They will pass through Liverpool en
route to Dublin, where they will be in readiness to attend
upon her Majesty and the Court, on her visit to that city.
Immediately on their arrival, they will march to to the
landine-stage, where they will embark on board the Indus,
which will at once be dispatched for Dublin. The Guards
will leave London as soon as possible after they have par_
taken of the entertainment given them by her Majesty, on
their return from the Crimea.

BRUTAL AS-AULT AT BIRKENHEAD.—In our impression
on Monday last, we announced that a most brutal
assault had been committed upon a poor man, who
at that time was suffering so much from the
injuries he bad received that he could not then
attend before the bench. The name of the injured man is
John Knowles. The parties charged with the assault are,
Peter M'Guigam and his two sons, John and James. From
the evidence adduced, it appeared that Knowles had, on
Sunday evening, been at Liverpool, with the sister of the
younger prisoners. About twelve o'clock on Sunday night
all the three prisoners attacked him and beat him most
severely for having done so. All three of the prisoners
were committed to take their trial.

StricinE.—About four o'clock yesterday morning, the
body of a man was found lying under one of the railway
arches in the Victoria-road. When the body was turned
over, it was found that nearly half the face was shot
away. A pistol lay under the body, and in the pockets
were found some powder, ball, and percussion caps. An
address card was also found in one of the pockets with
a few words written on it, which stated that deceased had
lodged in the house of a Mrs. Chismel, in 66, Dublin-street,
that he was not able to pay for his board, and that Mrs.
Chismel might take his things. On enquiry at Mrs.
Chismel's, she stated that the deceased had lodged with
her for about three weeks, having come from New York
as carpenter on board a vessel; that his name is Alfred
Kishing, and he was a Prussian by birth. She added that
he left her house about three o'clock the previous day for
the last time. A police constable met the deceased about
three o'clock yesterday morning in Great Howard-street,
but there was then nothing in his manner to excite any
suspicion. The body when found was quite warm,
although life was extinct. P. was conveyed to the dead-
house, in order that au inquest may be held.

events, his demeanour in the prison is such as to convey
that impression. As the assizes draw near, the result of
the trial is looked to with increasing interest, and the
hope felt that the perpetrators of so barbarous a murder,
may not escape detection and punishment.

LATEST INTELLIGENCE.

•

THE RUMOURED INTERVIEW

BETWEEN THE
FRENCH AND AUSTRIAN EMPERORS

The Moniteur of yesterday contains the following
official notification :—" Several journals, in France
as well as abroad, are trying to accredit a statement
that the Emperor is about immediately to go to
Areneberg, and to Bregenz, to meet the Emperor
of Austria. This statement has no foundation
whatever."
