EUROPEAN NEws.-The Adriatic brings us
the news relating to Garibaldi and the King of
Naples, which previous advices had led us to
expect. The King, followed by the Papal Nun
clio and a great part of the Ambassadors, had
fled to Gaeta, and Garibaldi had entered Naples,
formed Provisional Government, and proclaim
ed Victor Emmanuel as King of Italy. And
all without firing a single shot, having been re-
ceved with open arms by the people whom he
came to lberate and whose joy at his coming
was intense Thus the line of Bourbon ceases
to reign over any part of the Neapolitan King
dom.
Russia is reported to have made advances to-
wards complete reconciliation with Austria in
order to unite her influence with that power to
prevent the further progress of Garbaldi.
The Emperor Of Austria had determined to
grant important reforms in Hungary, with a
view of conciating the people.
The harvest was progressing in Great Britain,
the weather being very favorable. 1t was said
the wheat crop would be full average and of
fine quality, and that the barley and rye crops
would be satisfactory. Breadstufs were dull
Cotton was firm at slightly increased rates.
RsS One calamity is followed by another in
New Orleans On Friday night number of
liquor stores were burnt. In the upper story of
one of them was stored large quantity of spirits
which exploded, blowing over large building
on the corner of Tchoupitoulas street. Forty
or fifty persons were buried in the ruins, of
whom fifteen were killed and several others
wounded. A square of the city was also burnt
on Saturday morning.

theories and fancies ofdesigning and short sight
ed man-this, this it is which is creating all
the fuss and fury.
There is not a man, in all the South, who
would wish to introduce slave labor into New
England and similar climates, because forsooth.
he knows it would not prove profitable, but a
serious drawback. &c. there is not sensible
man Of the North, who, when he came to under
stand the subject as he can only do by practical
experience, would wish to substitute white for
black labor in the Southern or cotton States
But this is principle which not all the agita-
ton in the universe, not all the discussion and
theories Of she world could settle without prac-
teal knowledge. Then if theories, agitation
and discussion can avail nothing, why indulge
in them =? Why not strive to lay aside petty
differences of theory and unite to perpetuate the
country, as Union, one and inseparable, now
and forever. Let us try to do SO, and our word
for it the work is half accomplished for the trial
Dissolve this Union Break up this Govern
ment Crush out our National Constitution,
and with it our libertiest Never, no, never.
Palsied be the hand which shall first with sacri-
legious intent touch our dear interests as a
Nation.
Who can look upon the subject without a
shudder, who can think of it without creeping
horror in his soul? We blush for the man who
single thought favorable to this
purpose.

FAwKEs' STEAM PLow A FAILURE.-During
the Illinois State Fair, at Jacksonville, Fawkes
steam plow was again submitted to practical
test in forty acre field, and proved a bad fail
ure. 1t was tested last year, butt was thought
its failure then could be remedied by some i'm
provements of the machinery. Alterations and
improvements were made in Cincinnati, but per-
lection has not been attained. Of the perform
anee at Jacksonville the correspondent of the
Harrisburg Press writes:
"Mr. Fawkes began blowing at II o'clock,
drawing six plows; steam $50 degrees ran IA
minutes stopped steam at so; stopping 10
minutes started again ran the whole of one
minute and actually plowed 456 yards burrows
six and one half feet wide; stopped started
again steam 1870 degrees; ran one minute; stop
ped steam at 100.
"Now, whatever elements of success there
may be in this steam pillow, we certainly have
not seen any results from it, and we certainly
consider that this days trial is complete fail
ure under the peculiar circumstances, OF which
circumstances every one connected with the AZ
ricultur, Society is well aware

The NEGRO ABDUcT1oNs.-The Baltimore
Sun says:-s'The negro abductions, which have
excited SO much interest of late, are being rapid
ly developed. It was ascertained that part of
those abducted had been sold to Mr.. Milton
R. Streeter, of Eufala, Alabama, and detective
German was dispatched to that place in search
of them As soon as the fact was made known
that the negroes were only to be sold, by order
of the court, for tern, of years, Mr.. Streeter
expressed his willingness not only to surrender
them, but to pay all the expenses that might in
cur in returning them to Baltimore"
Four of the negroes arrived in Alexandria,
Va, several days ago, and are now in Baltimore
city. A part Of these are the same negroes who
were taken from John Hinesley by the police
while in hack, and on the way out of the city
and for which Hinesley was indicted by the
grand jury. There are several more who will
arrive in few days. The price paid by Mr.
IStseeter for the negroes was upwards Of 5000
but he promptly surrendered them at a sacrifice
Of the whole anoupt of the purchase money.

The PRINCE IN THE UNITED STATEs.-The
Prince of Wales, or the Baron Renfew, as he is
now to be recognized, has received more earn
est than polite welcome in the United States
Immense crowds, much enthusiasm and much
disorder have characterised his reception. At
Detroit he had to escape from the throng by
taking refuge in a close carriage and thus reach
ed his hotel incognito, whilst the procession es-
corted his suite through the city. The next
with the Mayor, but IRIS progress was again 1fn-
peded by an enthusiastic crowd. At Chicago,
where he arrived on Friday evening, he was
received with another popular demonstration,
better managed however, through the exertions
of the police, than the Detroit ovation. The
enthusiasm with which he has been welcomed
to the Republic will no doubt be considered by
the Prince and his attendants as full compen-
saton for the little breaches of courtesy of which
our Republican sovereigns, not used to royalty,
have been guilty. From St. Louis the party
proceeded to Kankakee, on the Illinois river,
where the Prince is to have day or two of
grouse shooting on the praries.

MARYLAND STATE AGRICULTURAL SOCIETY
ANNUAL CATTLE SHow.-Many Of our readers
will be gratifed to learn that the annual exhibit
ton of agricultural implements, choice cattle
poultry, &C., is advertised to commence on Tues
day. the 3Oth of October next, and to continue
as usual, for four days. We need scarcely ad-
vert to the value of these exhibitions, not only
to the farmer and machinest, but also to bust
ness men Of all classes nor to the benefit which
accrues to the city near which such fairs are
held from the large number of people who at
tend them, and by the facilities which are thus
afforded for making of new acquaintance and
for renewing old friendships. But the chief
Importance which attaches to our State Agricul-
tural Society, as to all others of a similar kind
lies in the suggestions which its exhibitions offer
for the consideration of intelligent farmers the
opportunities they present for obtaining an &C.
curate knowledge of the various breeds of stock
and of the improvement which has been made
during the previous year in labor saving ma
chimes and Implements During the thirteen
years which have elapsed since the present State
Agricultural Society has been organised, its in
fuence in promoting better system of farming
has been sufficiently marked to warrant that
Legislative recognition and pecuniary aid which
it has at length obtained. Being thus freed
from debt, and placed upon permanent basis,
it will be able to extend its sphere of usefulness
and cam therefore, appeal with confidence to the
support of all those whose interests it is designed
to serve. Under these better auspices it now
calls upon all classes of exhibitors from our own
and other States, to join in making the approach
ing Fair superior in attractiveness to any that
have preceded it. We trust that this call will
meet with hearty response: that many new
members will be added to the society, and that
the list of entries for premiums will indicate a
spirited competition Exchange.

We can assure our friends of the Gairesfon
