LONDON, WEDNESDAY, APRIL 27, 1864,

According to the rate at which things are going
in the political world, we must soon begin to doubt
the testimony of our own senses. We allude to
what has been latterly occurring in the House of Com-
mons—and elsewhere, without the walls of Parlia-
mcint—among some of our most conspicuous living
politicians. Take, for example, the suddenly hust-
ling away out of London of General GARIBALDI. Are
we, there—to believe or not to believe our own senses?
Ave we to follow in that matter the simplest dic-
ta tes of " common" sense ? GARIBALDI himself
protests, in answer to every inquiry addressed
to him—even to the t nquiries addressed to
him by the most eminent surgeon living
—that he is uncommonly well. We see him
with our own eyes—and he looks what he
says he is, namely, uncommonly well. The Great
Surgeon, in his very last letter upon the subject of
GARIBALDI'S health, says, as plainly as words can
Aby anything, that on pressing him (GARIBALDI)
closely with his inquiries he appeared to he fagged
—and that on examining him very closely he looked
fagged. Well, for that matter, really the wonder
of the world would have been if he hadn't, Fancy
any man living, going through the fatigue and ex-
citement that GARIBALDI had been going through
for nearly a whole fortnight, and not acknowledging
when he is closely cross-questioned that he is rather
fagged—and not, when he comes to be very closely
Ecrutinized, looking rather fagged. " A throat of
brass and adamantine lungs," and all the rest of his
anatomy built up out of similar materials, would be
r,riaired in a man who could speak or look otherwise
after such a fortnight as that following GARIBALDI'S
arrival in London. Fagged, of course, he was—
but otherwise, if we can believe himself, he
was uncommonly well. And, if we can bee
lieve ouc own eyes, he was so the day before
ho left Londoe. Oh, but he was something more
than faggedt—the public have been seriously in-
formed. Gmtine,LDl was something more than
merely fagged—he had a boil! Nay, he had "two
boils"--ju his arm.? How very severe they must
have been, th b ose
- °l-B'aeeing that G
without
wincing, go
.through .ARIBALDI CoUld,
such an amount of
hand shaking, that it le a mercy his arms were
not wrung off before he could get away from the
metie'polis. Then again—these boils on his arm,
his more zealous friends,
that fairly compelled
Ministers cf the crown and others on the
score cf his health advise ills immediate de-
parture—theee boils on Lis aem don't
seem
to have interfered in the least with his rowing the
Dowager Duchess cf Sutherlend about tbe Thet,„!
More than that—What in the name of common
8.,u.39 is the vica co:, evidence given in by Mr.
BEALF.S, Mr. NICHOLAY, and others on Monday at
the London Tavern, h;f)re the City Garibaldi
Committee? Why, the evidence is this—the
Chairman of that Committee, namely,
EEADC., the Revising Beirister,:already mentioned,
Mr. NICHOLAY also already mentioned, and
