The News.

By telegraph from New Orleans we have the
important intelligence of the landing of General
Walker, at the head of three hundred men, at
Acapulco. As to Walkers intentions and designs
nothing is positively known; but as Acapulco is
the headquarters of General Alvarez, and as that
veteran Mexican warrior and patriot is devoted to
the cause of the constitutionasts, it is not by
any means unlikely that the next intelligence from
Mexico will announce the appearance of the fill
buster chief and his followers before the capital in
the ranks of the liberal army, if not in the halls of
the Montezumas.
Full details of the European news brought by
the Vanderbilt, dated on the 18th of May, will be
found in our paper this morning, the HERALD of
yesterday Sunday containing very copious and
interesting report prepared after her arrival. The
extracts relative to the movements Of the great
contendlng armies and the advices from the seat
of war are thus brought to the latest moment
The steamship City of Baltimore will most pro.
baby arrive here to-day from Queenstown, with
Geographic dispatches one day later than the
news by the Vanderbilt.
The commercial advices from our Liverpool
agent, by the Vanderbilt, show that there was an
important omission in the despatch of the City Of
Baltmore's news from Cape Race, viz:-that -four
had declined Cd. per quintal The quotations pub
have indicated decline of themselves.
The next news frem Europe will reach us by the
following vessels which sail as below

letter from Florence, received at Providence,
says that Modena is also in a state of insurrecton-
that the Duke had been driven out and provi-
sional government established.
1t is asserted in diplomatic circles that if Count
Sartiges, the French Minister, made the remark
about the right of search attributed to him. he re
ferred solely to the right of belligerens in time of
war to search vessels suspected of having articles
contraband of war on board-a right conceded by
the United States-and not to the right Of search
by nations not belligerent.
An application has been made to our government
for its interference in the case of DR.. King, who
was recently convicted at Cobourg Canada West, of
having poisoned his wife. The application is based
on the alleged fact that King was illegally arrested
at Cape Vincent, within the United States without
any application having been made for his surrender
according to treaty stipulations, and that he was
forcibly carried back to Canada.
The news from Utah in to-days paper is again Of
startling character. A collision between the
United States troops and the militia of the Terri
tory was expected at last advces. The Governor
was determined to oppose the entrance of the
troops into the city-acting as a posse contains.
r Our Caracas correspondent states that on the
goth ultmo the whole of the republic of Venezuela
was in very great disorder owing to the factious
divisions of the federalists against the government
Maturn, Cumana and the interior of Barcelona were
held by the former. Spiritualism was making
great way there in opposition to the Catholic
church.
The dedication of the Welsh Calvinistic church.
on Thirteenth street, between Second and Third
avenues, or rather continuation of dedcatory SER
vices, took place yesterday afternoon. A descrp-
ton of the building was given in April, when the
church was opened Services were also to be held
in the evening, and large number assembled to
participate but owing to the nonappearance of
the pastor the congregation broke up disappointed.

EDUCATIONAL ASPECT OF THE WAR-f war is
to be deplored as scourge, it must be dmitted
that it is only qualifedly so. The WORD has
been always one Of the great instruments of
civilization, for it opens up new fielis to COM
mercc, and consequently to the diffusion of
human knowledge. But it is not amongst those
alone who are subjected to its actiu that it
disseminates information. 1t also reats in an
educational sense amongst the proucandists
themselves. Take, for instance, its results in the
spread of geographical knowledge. Tie imme-
date effect of the outbreak of war in italy has
been to set every one studying the MAJ of Eu-
rope. In order to supply the demand or infor-
nation the illustrated papers have all ,een pub
fishing charts of the theatre of the approaching
campaign. Thus millions will become ac-
quainted with the geographical features and
peculiarities of countries upon whchthey had
probably never bestowed more than passing
glance. 1t was the same with our people during
the Mexican war. No sooner was our amy fairly
embarked in it than every one commenced
tracing the map Of that country, and in this way
an acquaintance with the southern PORTION of
our continent was obtained, which has proved of
the greatest use in the discussion Of the ques-
tions that are continually arising in connection
with it. War, then, has its uses as we'll as its
plaques. 1t is philosophically wrong to contend
that it retards human progress.

MORE TROUBLE IN UTAH-ANTICrpATE Col.
LIsIoN BETWEEN THE TROOPS AND THE MORMON
MILITh-We publish to-day number of highly
interesting communications from Salt Lake City,
which indicate that serious state of affairs is
aboutto eventuate there 1t would appear from
these statements-some of which may probably
be little too strong and one.sided-that the
differences so long existing between the Execu-
tive and Judiciary are about to result in COLI
sion between the United States troops under
Gen. Johnston, and the Mormon militia under
Gen. Wells-fve thousand Of the latter having
been called out by Gov. Cumming to protect
the citizens from what he deems the usurpaton
of authority on the part of the judges and the
military.
Should such an unfortunate occurrence take
place. it may be necessary for the federal govern
ment to send out much larger force to sus-
tam Gen. Johnston. which will involve an
immense expense to the country. It is evident
hat there will be no lasting peace in the Terri
tory between the Gentiles and the Mormons The
line OF demarkation is too strongly drawn be-
tween them-the interests and the sympathies of
both are alike divided; and we question whether
any amount of armed force the government can
send there will have any other effect than the total
demolition of Mormon rule in Utah. and the
exodus Of that fraternity to of the islands in
the Pacific.
1t is possible that the present difficulty may
end in this way and if such is to be the resalt
the sooner it comes about the better.

THE CONDITION OF THE STREETs-A CTION. NOT
WORDS, WANTED.-We are constantly receiving
communications relative to the disgaceful con-
dition of the streets, some of which, with
our comments and suggestions thereon. we have
published. This is at least IN evidence
that our warnings of danger from pestilence
have not passed UNDECIDED. But whit is wanting
lsnot words, but advantageous and Immediate
action. We have been providentislly favored
with cool weather and occasional rains for some
une past, but we cannot calculate upon long
continuance Of these saving circumstances; and
II hot spell comes as come it soon will and
finds us nnprepared, it requires 10 prophetic
vision to foresee the lamentable consequences.
Ii the streets are not purified at once, nothing
can avert the outbreak of pestilence in the
crowded quarters of the city and in this event it
is not alone the poor and the denizens of those
localities whs will be afflicted. Death is un-
sparing, and regards not the high nor the low.
An epidemic disease, once let loose. will rayape
the Fifth avenue as well as the Five Points:
and when some of the priced and loved are
snatched from our homes it will be but poor
consolation to curse the authorities and invoke
retribution on their heads. We all know that
they are utterly corrupt and unreliable; that
'hey are not disposed to move finger for the
protection Of the public health. Then, why de-
pend upon them in such fearful emergency as
the PRESENT. Surely if health and life are worth
having they are worth paying and striving for.
Let ward committees be formed at once, then,
and the work be commenced.

RELIGIOUS ASPECT OF THE WAR IN ITALY
1t is curious that when war breaks out, the
clergy, who should be the first to deprecate
it, are ever found ready to give it an
impulse. Thus in Austria we find the con-
vents and other religious institutions lend.
ing financial aid to the government, just as they
are in the habit of doing in Mexico; whilst in
France and Sardinia the clergy are giving to
their respective governments all that is left to
them to bestow-their blessing. Now, as the
belligerents can't both be right, it follows that
this common concurrence of the priests as bottle
holders must be wrong. We shall see, when the
question of the Popes future position comes to
be settled, where the ecclesiastical shoe pinches

TwEEDLEDUM AND TwEEDIEDEE.-The doc
trine embodied in the following resolution con-
stituted the main plank of the republican plat
form of 1885, and is still adhered to ION the mig
issue at least as the creed of that party viz
Resolved That the constitution confers upon Congress
sovereign power over the Territories of tho United States
for their government, and that in the exercise of this
power s both the right and duty Of Congress to pro
poygamy and slavery.
And the doctrine of the following resolution
is now not only the war cry of the Southern de-
mocratic ultras generally, but of the opposition
party of Kentucky, to wit -
Resolved That the constitution confers upon Congress
sovereign the Territories of the United States
for their government and in the exercise Of this power
is both the right duty Congress to pass laws for the
protection Of slavery in the Territories.
These are the two extremes and granting the
sovereign jurisdiction Of Congress over the Ter
ritories it has the power to exclude or to protect
slavery. Mr.. Douglas occupies the intermediate
ground Of squatter sovereignty, while the Wash
ington Constitution, assuming to speak for all the
odds and ends of the democracy, says that
neither Congress nor the squatters can touch
niggers, but that it is the duty of the Supreme
Court to look after the rights of shareholders
and provide for the security of their slaves in the
Territories. We shall probably get at definite
settlement of all these nice distractions some two
or three years after the close of the present Eu-
ropean war, or directly after the establishment of
apermanent peace in Mexico
