THE STATE OF EUROPE.
From Our Own Correspondent.

1UhlN, Juuc 10, icOus
Turin being now the center of the European
moyement. have returned once snore to this |
plsce. where the destinies of Italy are now in the
balance. Having had the OPPORTUNITY OF con- |
yeripg with the chief statesm "a aud chief leaders
Of the Sicilian affairs, can assure you that the
question of the unity of ItAs is in the best way of
being settled in the cours e this year, in the most
satisfactory manner. 'Cao Emperor of France,
whatever be his desg has not the slightest objec-
ti0n against the Complete uni6cston of ltalyi he
wishes to see the teninsula stroeg and united under
the crown Of Yidor Emanuel, whose loyalty and
gratitude maks Italy the best ally of France, while
even the con'aitutiOnal form of government does
not alarm Ntsp leos as long as Cavour maintains
his ascene,eaey, .aad diIeces the chambers ID The
most aI.pcoyed fashion, 1t is really remark
able taxs shis great statesman, who has
scarcely any importast personal friend, and
no r eel personal popularity lords it over the lnde
pen'leut members OF Parliament with an iroe will,
solely by the power Of his genius and his well known
and neyer-dOubted patriotism. Everybody gladly
recognizes IN him the only statesman able to carry
the unity Of Italy to dsarm the suspicion o. France,
to make use OF the revolutionary forces without
allowing them to spread too far, and to maintain
the Independence of the State with dignity He
has too strange allies, Napoleon and the Revolution.
and he manages to escape subserviency to either
of them. The only restraint be has 10 undergo on
account Of the Emperor, is the lnviOlabhty oil the
town and territory of Rome The Marshes ana
JJmbria will soon follow the fortresses OF Naples
and Sicily but the Pope and his temporal power
over Rome and .he country along the Tiber must
remain free from invasion, not to be touched by
resolution.
The NeapOitan drama continues to interest all
Europe; it aboupds in striking incidents. Scarcely
had We recovered from the first excitement at the
hairbreadth escape of Garibaldi's noble band at
Marsha when We witnessed the heroic struggle OF
Calatafmi, the successful stratagem by which the
NeapOlItan troops were drawn away from the capt.
tai, the stOrming of Palermo, the cruel lombard
ment the Generalization of the Royal army by the
the street-fght, the coward capitulatiOn of King
BOmba's army of u, 0G0 men, aud the evacuation
of the ISLAND with the exception OF the forts of
Messina, MelazzO, Syracuse, and Augusta. Then
came the second expedition, the steamer Usie
carving small band of eighty volunteers, three
thousand stand of arms, and ammunition evading
the Sician cruisers, and arriving safely at Marsha
The third expedition was planned on greater scale
Medici, with two thousand picked soldiers, arms,
cannon. ammunition, and money, steamed away
from Genoa the 9th inst, two steamers bought
at Marseilles while Major Corte, with nine hundred
men and two thousand muskets, preceded him by
"a hours on an American clipper in tow to the
steamer Atile A NeapOtan frigate the Fulmi-
mantle, watched them for some time, and, unable
TO restrain her zeal, pOunced upon them in
the channel of Piombino, in the Tuscan waters.
The higate had not the courage to board the
clipper, well aware that the volunteers would de-
feId themselves TO the last man; nor was any
NeapOitan officer put on board of the captured YES
sci taken in tow by the Fulminante; thus the
crew had plenty of time to throw the muskets over
board during the night and when the clipper and
the sie were brought into the harbor of Gaeta, all
the papers were found to be in order, and the pas
seDgers provided with regular passports for Malta
The American Minister at once entered protest |
against the illegal capture. The Sandman Embas |
sador claimed damages, and insisted upon the i'm
mediate rendition of the 900 passengers and the |
Court of Naples, which had exultantly published in
the official papers the capture of the filibusters,
found itself i'll the most serious fix. ship of war
was at once dispatched to Genoa with dplomatlst
on board 40 extraordinary mission, to try to ar
raLge matters here at Turn aud possibly to save
the d. nasty. He is expected to arrive tomorrow.
The public. however Is here much excited, and
insists upon declaration of war against Naples, to
settle matters at without mncing, lest delay
should make o Muratist movement possible in the
south OF the peninsula. Garibaldi Is certainly strong
enough To do the work BY himself; for, while COrte
was being captured, Medici arrived safely
at Palermo, and the organization of the Sici-
ian army progresses in the most favorable
way. Still there are breakers ahead. MAJ
zini has arrived on the island, aud might afford
pretext TO the Emperor for interfering IN the
interest of 80 society and order threatened by MAJ
zini. On the other side, La Farina, a Sician
refugee and for some time CavOur's Under Secre-
tary Of State has likewise arrived at Palermo evil
IDENTIFY with the intention Oftaking the administra-
ton of the island into his hands. Hayn voted for
the annexation of Nice to France, he is not very
acceptable to Garbaldi while all the more advanced
party in Sicily hate him. He is now discreditng
Garibaldls Ministers by bis correspondence III the
Turin papers; but hear that he is soon to return,
seeing that his time has not yet arrived, and that
his presence makes confusion ana dissensl0ns at
Palermo.
While Italy is hopeful we can't make out the
policy of Germany The interview Of Baden-Bade
remains as yet an unsOived riddle; at any rate it
has strengthened the position of Prussia. At the
very first sound of alarm all the German Princes
forsO0k Austria and rushed to the protection
of Prussia. Even the King Of HanOver-whO but
lately elevated his Minister, Mr. Berries, to the
rank Of q Count for having declared IN the face OF
Germany that the German Princes rather seek
foreign alliances than 10 he threatened by Prussian
absorption--Iorgot his old grudge and appeared at
Baden at the side of the King Of SaxOny, whose
anti-PTussian tendencies are sufficiently known.
There were Likewise the Duke of Nassau and the
Hessian Prince both OF them Austrian to the core,
but despairing Of Austrian support. The assembled
kings and princes were all unanimous about one
point that their thrones and authority ought not
10 be shaken either BY France or by their own sub
jects, bnt this touching unanimity was soon broken
when Prussia declared that she is wiLiay TO con.
tinue he, policy, and tried TO cOse to some under
standing about the organization and the chief
InanG of lie Federal army. Austria must course,
feel angry al her isolation but Prussia might have
ieaIlvd that tine race of the German Princes is n-
corliQjbe. and nothing but dire necessity can eter
induce them willingly TO acknowledge Pruss1n
