The other incidents of news brought by the City
of Baltimore are not favourable to the Federals.
The Confederates still seem to be operating with a
view to turn HAlLEcies right flank in Virginia, and
to keep Washington, looking out for a sudden visit.
But there is a confusion in the telegrams relating
to the movement, which somewhat perplexes us.
Fort Donnelson, in Tennessee, reported to have
been captured, by the last advices, is now said to
have successfully resisted the Confederate attack.
Baton Rouge, however, is still in danger from the
rebels, and the Federals are even making prepara-
tions to burn the city, if they are beaten ! At
New Orleans also, BUTLER is in such fear of the
ihhabitants, that he has disarmed them, foreigners
included, notwithstanding the protests of the
French Consul. • Everywhere the North seems to
be hard pressed, and the only hope to be its new
and vast conscription.

While we are still waiting to obtain an inkling
of NAPOLEON'S intentions in regard to Rome, we
cannot but revert to a consideration of what are
already visible in Italy as the results of GARIBALDI'S
Downfall. The defeated Hero arrived, it appears,
at Spezzia, at two o'clock on the afternoon of Mon-
day, the Ist instant, that is as recently as the day
before yesterday—having been conveyed thither
direct from Reggio on board the Italian steam-
frigate, the Duca di Genova. The news of his
arrival was officially announced in the Gazetta di
Torino upon the following morning, namely, yes-
terday. With GARIBALDI—whose wounds every
one will rejoice to know, are not serious, as was at
first stated (at any rate in regard to one of them)—
with GARIBALDI, for a brief while in the citadel at
Reggio, afterwards for a longer interval on board the
Daca di Genova, and now, doubtless, for a yet
longer time in his scene of captivity at Spezzia, was
the Hero's gallant son, MENOTTI. His other son,
RICIOTTI, recently domiciled at Turin, is stated to
have hastened at once to Spezzia, immediately the
account of his father's disaster had been followed
by the intimation that that southernmost seaport of
the Sardinian States had been selected as the Great
Prisoner's destination. There the dauntless heart of
the defeated Patriot may find consolation even in
the depth of his present affliction in the affectionate
sympathy of those two SODS,RICIOTTI and Mix OTTI.
Better—now that all is over in regard to this wild,
mad enterprise—better, perhaps, for his own
thoughts now, this imprisonment at Spezzia, after
having, at any rate made the attempt to extricate
Italy from her dilemmas, by an adventure in which
he hazarded his life, as well as staked upon the
cast of a die, the priceless treasure to Italy of his
reputation—better in his own estimation, doubt-
less, even all this (humiliation, defeat, wounds,
imprisonment), than to be still eating his heart out
in his rocky island home at Caprera ! The manner
in which GARIBALDI has fallen by the hands of the
treacherous Government of Signor RATTAZZI, hardly
less than the flagrant fact of his falling, bleeding
and suffering, struck down by the soldiers of
VICTOR EMMANUEL, must, sooner or later, we may
be certain, bring down the avenging blade of
NEMESIS upon that now exultant Cabinet at Turin.
The mere thought of the " fact', and of the " manner"
of GARIBALDI'S Downfall can hardly do otherwise
than pierce with sorrow the heart of the Re Ga-
lantuomo. If ever man was basely trapped and
deceived, it was GARIBALDI—in that mountain
pass, on Aspromonte. An Italian soldier, bearing a
flag of truce is sent after the Great Condottiere and
his of red shirts. GARIBALDI, respecting the
flag oafnd truce sent out to him thus in the name of his
KING, pauses to parley with its bearer. There is
a halt of the Garibaldians. And while the flag of
truce is thus trade the instrument of deception to
the Patriotic Chief, the Bersaglieri of PALLAVICINO
are rapidly brought up, and lo !—the unsuspecting
Garibaldians find themselves surrounded! The bearer
of the flag of truce distinctly requested GARIBALDI,
in the name of his (the
soldier's) commanding offi-
cer, PALLAVICINO, to delay the march of the Gari-
baldians—a request which was simply made, as the
event proved, to enable the

Volunteers repel the assault for a while with the
utmost gallantry. Before many minutes have
elapsed nine of them are lying dead in the defile,
and as many as three hundred are more or
less severely wounded. GARIBALDI—not himself
seriously maimed either in foot or leg, yet effectu-
ally crippled, nevertheless, by bullet and bayonet
—sees the utter futility, and, consequently, the in-
human barbarity, of allowing the fighting to con•
tiuue. The Hero orders a surrender, He, and two

from an army of free blacks. But if he treats them
otherwise than as prisoners of war he may
/win the praises of his slaveholders, but he
Oil' win also the execrations of the civilised world,
Mr. LINCOLN, however, may learn if he will what
he loses by his spare-slavery policy, from the rival
PRESIDENT'S Message. He will there see that even
the mild and indirect measure of emancipation
termed the " Confiscation Act," is more dreaded
than the Northern arms. The last 600,000 men
whom the PRESIDENT is striving for, might all have
been left at home if he had begun with the prin-
ciple of justice to four millions of his coloured fel-
low-citizens. Never did a country better deserve de-
feat than one composed of Free States which re-
fused, in its bitter aversion to the coloured people,
to make freemen of slaves. The North, with the
emancipated slaves, would have been certain vic-
tors. Rejecting them and its own duty, it will
ignominiously fall.

What good reason Mr. Davis has to rely on
Southern military prowess, is evident, even from
these last accounts. We were quite right in assum-
ing that, notwithstanding Northern representa-
tions of the battle of Cedar Mountain, it would
turn out to be a real defeat. The news from
Cape Race of the 26th fully confirms this. We
now read that the Confederates followed close
on Pope's rear in his retreat from Culpepper
to the Rappahannock; that skirmishing and
artillery engagements continued during the
whole of the week; and that the Confe-
derates at length made a dash at Catle's Station,
capturing one staff officer, and General Pope's per-
sonal luggage, maps, official despatches, and most
valuable papers relating to the campaign; while
the reported capture of 2,000 Confederates is not
yet confirmed. The boastful captor of the 10,000
prisoners at Corinth will begin to learn a little
modesty, as he contemplates General LEE and Mr.
DAVIS laughing over the perusal of his letters,
despatches, and military plans.

thousand of his followers, are taken prisoners, 300
of them hors de combat. And this by no more than
1,800 of the Royal troops—the commander of the
Bersaglieri having altogether within call, however,
some 18,000 of the KING'S soldiers in the neigh-
bourhood of Aspromonte. Such were the circum-
stances under which the insurgent standard of
GARIBALDI waslowered upon the banners of the
Galantuomo!

At Paris and at Turin there has been since then
plentiful evidence of preparation. Rumours, some of
them of a very startling nature, a few of them of a
" verysinister character, have been rife in each capital,
since the crushing out of the rebellion in Calabria.
The Italian Ministers are described as so far be-
wildered by the prompt success won for them by
Colonel PALLAVICTNO, at the head of his Bersag-
lieri, that they have invited to a consultation with
them in Turin, among other leading statesmen of
Italy, Signori FARINI, MINGHETTI. and MASSIMO
D'AZEGLIO. Strange to say, just at this cri-
tical juncture—Baron RIC 4SOLI (of all men !)
going to Paris (of all places !) In the
latter capital the EMPEROR presided yester-
day at a Cabinet Council—a council which
had been postponed from the day preceding. With
what results the French Ministers met their Sove-
reign in Council cannot at this moment even be
conjectured. It remains still, even to the Parisians
most intimately en rapport with the heads of admi-
nistration an inscrutable mystery. Reports were
consequently still flying about as to the probabili-

ties of the WALEWSKI and RANDON section of the
present Cabinet (the section favourable, that is, to
the continued occupation of Rome) gaining the pre-
ponderance, and thereby ousting, as would in that
event be simply inevitable, at such a juncture as
the present,,the section opposed to the maintenance
of the French occupation, the section represented
by MM. DE PERSIGNY and DE THOUVENEL. La
France still of course puts a bold face upon the
matter—

And seems to shake the spheres :"

the JUPITER TONANS for the time being (at any
rate in its pretensions) of Parisian journalism. Sa
Majesty himself the while, cuncta supercilso mo-
ventis, remaining all the while dumb, impassive,
impenetrable! Time will come, however, and that
very speedily, when the Oracles must speak—though
it may not be at Delphos. According to the Opi-
nione the 25th—according to La France, the
15th—is fixed for the re-assembling of the Italian
Chambers. Then RATTAZZI will have to make his
explanations. Then will it be seen how far if at all the
Prime Minister of Italy can contrive to wash his
hands of the blood of GARIBALDI. As for the
talked-of Trial of the Great Prisoner—it is the
merest farce, the veriest make-believe. Let them
dare to touch a hair of his head, and—we will not
say that RATTAZZI and his colleagues will rue the
day, for their fate is already sealed, but the—hopes
of King VICTOR EMMANUEL and the prospects of a
Constitutional Government under his sovereignty
—will, as surely as Death is reserved for us all, be
scattered far and wide to the winds of Heaven.
