has intensified against the AustriaDs, in the pre-.
sent Instance, the feelings of detestasion and
hatred with which their previous conduct
has inspired the italian populations,
whilst AT the same time it has taught the latter
to despise their military capacity and energy.
The effect OF course, will be to decide the waver
ing in their own Italian possessions, and to un-
furl the STANDARD Of revolt there as soon W.
French aid ia at band.
AS there must be, by this time, over 100000
French troops in Piedmont, and as the necessary
supplies arc rapidly being collected for the sup
port OF the army it is not unlikely that We shall
shortly have the news of collision. We do
not believe, however, that any great battle will
be fought until the allies are fully prepared to
follow up the campaign by an advance
into Lombardy. To initiate the indecisioa
OF the Austrians, by pausiag over the
results of first victory, would be as great
mistake as that committed by the latter.
The remainder of this month has, therefore, pro-
badly been occupied in the organization of the
military plans for an advance, and in the
strengthening of the italian States which have
declared for the allies. These necessary steps
accomplished, Louis Napoleon, who is almost as
much Of professionalism as his uucle may
select the 18th of June for another Mar.uge.
If the Austrians will give him the opportunity,
The SCENE IN THE BAY ON SATURDAY
TRAVEL TO EUROPE IN SPITE OF THE WAR;
The harbor and bay Of New York presented a
splendid and unusual sight on Saturday. Three
first class steamships left their wharves about
the same time for Europe, laden with passengers
and specie: the Arago, the Weser ana the Vigo;
the latter having on board William Smith
O'Brien, whose departure from these shores was
made the occasion of grand display of en-
thusasm, both in the city anG on the bay. A
dotilla Of steamers, gaily decorated, and carry
ing not less than twelve thousand people, ac-
companied the Vigo to Sandy Hook, presensing
picture, in the bright sunshine aud in the
midst of the superb scenery of our harbor, not
often witnessed, and not easily to be forgotten.
1t was thought by many that the outbreak of
the war in Europe would put stop at once to
the exodus Of tourists fron, this conntrg. 1t was
supposed that the troubled condition of that con-
tinent would deter travellers from visiting it;
but facts Of recent occurrence entirely upset
that idea. Since Wednesday last five steamers
left this port for Europe, taking out very nearly
a thousand passengers, aud over i've millions in
specie II is evident, then, that the war ia not
going to affect travel 10 Europe. The fact is,
that in the age we live in things are assuming q
new aspect in this as in other circumstances A
great and saDguinsry war attracts people from all
quarters, like some grand spectacle in the theatre,
or some renowned exhibition like those ut the
Crystal Palaces OF London, Paris aud New York.
Tourists Fastening to the scene of action,
many with view to be in the neiehborhsod Of
cited by spirit of adventure, to visit the actual
scenes of the conflict and behold thu marshalling
of those vast armies now concentrating on the
plains of Italy. Those Of the timid sort who
may be deferred from visiting Europe, will be
outnumbered by the bold and curious, who are
willing to run some risk to their personal con-
fort for the sake Of witnessing the important
events ABOUT I'd udnspire between Ihe rival hosts
at the seat of war. No doubt the latter class
calculated upon being able to keep out of imme-
date danger through the agency of telegraphic
communication, by which they will learn the
movements of the grand armies. and the proba-
BILE locality of battle, and thus be enabled to
get least out of reach of shot and SHE'LL and it
is quite likely that this may be accomplished
with comparative safety. Certain it lie, that the
travel to Europe so far from Diminishing, is in
creasing. The following list Of sailings within
less than week will show the number Of steam
vessels, passengers and specie which left New
York IN that period tor Europe

Whether this large outpou,ipg of tourists is
caused by a desire to witness the great
warlike spectacle now enacting in the
South Of Europe or not, it is proof po-
sitive that the war is not arresting this species
