The friends of the National Union Movement"
c summoned to open the ball by State Cows n
ton at Utica, on Thursday, the 18th inst. Some
of the Dames signed to tie call, We recognize as
those of men who have been abOripg in the vine
yard OF the " Soft" Democracy for years, and we
do Lot believe they mean to do Othergi'e this
year. They may put up Bell State and Electoral
Tickets; b,t if they do, they will never vote for
them. Curious citizens will please keep an eye
on the mabipulations of I" the little joker" who
will turn up under the Dean Richmond thimble
Whenever he shall be wanted there. He is frisk-
ing about on purpose.
The supporters Of Sam Houston for President
will bold the Dext State Convention at Science
tady, on Wednesday, the 18th inst Az they do
not run their ticket TO SELL we are curious to see
it presented. We doubt, however, their ability to
frame one at this early stage of the canvass.
Quite number of decayed politicians Of diverse
antecedents are busy with the arduous labor OF
negotiating grand junction triangular anti Lincon
ticket, TO be composed Of Breckenridge, Bell,
and Douglas men in equal or other proportions.
If ttey want any help that we can lender we trust
they will not let bygone differences prevent their
calling. We favor their scheme for many reasons,
but principally that it will be an admission By the
Douelasites that they are not only dead bat Know
it. A composite, tesselated ticket can have but
one purpose-that of throwing the election INTO
the House, where Breckenridge has chance, bat
Douglas none whatever He could not get the
vote of four States there in any contingency. II,
BY means of these split tickets, Breckenridge aud
Lane can get into the House and Senate, the
former has an even chance with Lincoln in the
House, while Lane has dead certainty in the
Senate. The Chivalry will then take their chance
in the House and that failing, they will prevent
an election there, and Lane, who will meantime
have been chosen Vlce.President by the Senate on
the first vote. will be President in fact for the en-
suing four years. johnson stands no more chance
in the Senate than Lloyd Garrison would If be
could get there. IT. then, the Douglas men con-
sent to run composite tickets they admit that they
have given up the ghost, which will make the con-
test easier for the Republicans throughout the
Northwest. So, il there be any inclination to
dcker on the part of the Sofs, let it by all means
he encouraged.

that neither France nor Sardinia had anything
to do with the recent throwing of Of Papal au-
thority by the Romsenols, but that it was their
own voluntary and oil but unanimous act, conse-
ouent on the withdrawal of the Austrian troops
who bad 30 long held them down, and effected at a
time when no French or Sandman force vas within
a hundred miles of them--that their choice in 1859
of Victor Emanuel for their sovereign was as
sno,taneous az unanimous and as hearty as the
Archbishop alleges the choice Of the Pope to
have been by their ancestors o thousand years
AGO: but then if the Archbishop should see ht 10
turn upon us with plump denial OF the rignt OF
the Romagnols Of to-day to choose any o'her ruler
thar the Pope We should have had our LABOR lor
our pains. We DO not, of course, asseHt to his
statement of what he presents as hlstory-"e hold
the facts to be quite other than as he represents
them; but until we can have some clearer indlca-
ton of his vital principles regarding the matter,
we need not multiply words. Briefly, we hoid
that the ROmagnos had an indefeaslDie
right to change their ruler, and that they
hare changed him-peaceably, UNANIMOUSLY,
northumberland that Victor Emanuel s
TO-DAY their elected king By clearer and better
title than that by which aDy Pope has ruled them
for the last four hundred years. By-and-by, teey
may make dihereot choice; and we hold that
their right to do SO is clear and that the title TO
rule thus conferred will be valid; and if the Pope
Of to-day or his successor shall undertake to coerce
tn, m into submission to his repudiated sway, we
hold that he will be murderer, and that whoever
shall contribute men or money to aid that netarlous
procedure will be an accomplish in his gigantic
crime. Such lie our view of both the principles
and facts involved in this controversy; when the
Archbishop shall speak again, we trust he may be
equally explicit and unequiyOcal.

Missouri. The former is also ably edited, bat has


never exerted controlling influence in Alabama,
having been generally il the minority in its own
party. Its editor, Mr. Forsyth (son Of the Hon.
John Forsyth who was Senator from Georgia,
Minister to Spain, and finally Secretary OF State),
has, snce his recall from the Mexican Embassy,
been an ardent Douglas man on personal grounds,
and the Democracy Of Alabama syupathize
neither with mis- preference nor his reasons.
We should Judge from the indications that reach
us that Alabama would give more popular votes
for the Breckenridge ticket than for all others.
PeIbops We should add Mr.. Sonle's organ, The
Tine Data. at New Orleans, to the list of promi-
pent Democratic journals 10 the South that support
Mr. Douglas; aud those who will may count The
Louisville Democrat in that category. IL there be
any more, we do not know them. In South Caro-
lna there is no Journal that even tol~rates the idea
Of supporting Douglas in any contingency; 10 MIS-
sissppi, we believe the state Of the case is the
same; in Kentucky, we hear of no Douglas Journal
but Thu Democrat aforesaid; in Tennessee, none
has yet been heard from, while we know that
The Union Nashville), The ArGlanehe (Memphis),
and other leading journals, are out for Breckln-
ridge. From Virginia, we hear Of one paper COM
ing outfor Douglas, but all We see are the other
way; and they include the mouth pieces OF
seven.eighths of the Democracy of that State,
beginning with The Enquirer and The
Examiner of Richmond, and /4HGlnding
The Southern Argns Norfolk, The Argus, Wheel
ing, The Sentind, Alexandra, &c. We believe
there are at least seveDtyfse Democratic journals
in the Old Dominion of which at least seventy are
out for Breckenridge. Wehad supposed that there
would be at least a sufficient vote for Douglas in
this State to give its Electors to Bell and Everett
but there will not: Breckenridge will carry it.
We cannot speak so confidently for North Carolina;
but The Press, Raleigh, Journal, Wilmington, and
Banner, Salisbury, are out for Breckenridge, and
none within our knowledge for Douglas. Even In
Maryland, where the Douglas men divided the
Delegation, they do not seem to be sustained by
any considerable potion Of the Democratic press;
while in Delaware, The Republican, Wilmington,
goes decidedly for Breckenridge, while it is not
only the most influential organ of Democracy 10
the State, but located just where Douglas shonld
be strong if in any part of it. Down at the lower
end which sympathises with the Bay Counties OF
Maryland, he stands no chance.
From Florida Arkansas and Texas, we have no
indications as yet; but Arkansas is the only one of
them in which DOuglasism has ever had an exist
ence, and here 1t has been decidedly in the mnor
ity. Sam Houston is likely to carry Texas; if
not, Breckenridge will. Mr Douglas may carry
Missouri, but we do not think be stands an even
chance to day for one otter Slave State. Should
facts transpre placing his prospects in more Ia
yorabe light, we shall fairly and promptly present
them

This opens up a wide field of inquiry. There are
human stOmschs which can contain enough of
spruce beer, ginger beer, or lager bier, to produce
intoxication, aud there are Others which are less
sensitive even if more capacious. What particu-

THE JAPANESE OUTWARD HOUND.

The Niagara sailed on Saturday with the Japan
ese. He who has felt the rare pleasure OF turning
his face homeward after long absence, "strange
countries for to see," will rejoice with these
strar gers that that pleasant point is reached in
their travels. Nevertheless, we can only imagine
the unusual delight with which they commence
their homeward journey. The representatives OF
an early civilization, of people cultivated, to n
certain degree, in the Arts and Sciences; refined
and dgniied in the graces and pfopretes OF social
life. they are the FIRST Of their living countrymen-
the first of their cOuntrymen for ceaturies-who
have voluntarily gone abroad to see other lands,
the growth of other civilizations the character the
manners the arts, the SCIENCES, the social, the pO-
litiesl and the religious institutions Of other
peoples. With what ardent longing must they
desire to reach their homes, to meet the aoxOus
and fearful friends they left behind them, face 70
face, and tell 'hem not only how groundcss all their
fears were, bur that marvels and portents their

In announcing, one week ago. the nomination OF
Douglas aud Fitzpatrick at Baltimore, we expressed
our hope and belief that they would outrun Breck-
ipridpc and Lane in the popular vote OF the Slave
States. Our anxiety to seethc Yanceys and Currys

Gov Fitzpatrick was very serious incident which

from what we anticipated In short, the aspects Of
fine Southern canvass are quite other than We then
anticipated.
We exchange with most Of the leading Demo-

BY the steamer Anglo Saxon, at Father Point on
Saturday, and the Adriatic at this port the same
day, we have European Intelligence of the 2lst
nst being five days later than that brought by the
Great Eastern. The news from Sicily is quite uu-
tlsfactory. By way Of Rome we have statement
that dispatch had beeo received there from Ma
PIES giving details of the capture of two steamers,
one bearing the Sandman and the other the Amer.
lean flag, with % 600 muskets 30 cannons, 2,OOO,-
000 pounds of powder, considerable sum Of
mOIey, and 800 armed passengers. 1t is said the
Sandman Minister demanded tae restitution Of the
two steamers and the 900 passengers, as they had
passports for Malta. The English ambassador had
supported the demand. Garibaldi was push
ing forward warlike measures with his
characteristic energy, with view to making an
attack on the main land of the Kingdom. The
18th of June had been fixed upon for the levy Of
men furnished by the CONSUMPTION, and the Goth of
June for the departure Of the conscrpts for Paler
mo and Catania. Another decree orders the col
lection of horses and military stores. CannOns
had been east and pixies by the thousand had been
placed in the hands Of the inhabitants. The eyac-
uation of Palermo had greatly discouraged the
royal troops. Garibaldi had opened national
subscription on behalf of the war, which the Arch
bishops and noble families of Sicily responded to.
The conyOcation of Siciiian Parliament, to ratliy
the proclamation decreeiDg the forfeiture Of the
rights of the BOurbOns, and the union of Sicily to
the Kingdom of Sardinia under Victor Emanuel,
was shortly expected An inSurrcction in Caiabr1a
IL reported; as also that 2, 600 Garbaldians under
Col. Medici had effected a landing there. The
King of Naples has dismissed LAMA, Letzia, and
three other Generals in Sicily, and has exiled them.
The assurances which the Emperor Napoleon had
at the Baden Baden Congress of his peaceful given,
intentions, had produced, apparently, very sooth-
inc effect. The civil war in Turkey had COM
menced toward the end of May. The Druses were
the yictors. and had burned several fine villages on

NAPOLEON AND GEKMsNY.

The jealousy manifested by the English Journals
in relation TO the Conference at Baden-Baden
between the Emperor Napoleon aud the German
Princes. processes TO be based on apprehenslons OF
designs entertained by the French Emperor OF
damagl character to Germany. Alter all, now
ever, it is perhaps quite as much fears Tor Engaud
as fears for Germany in which this Jealousy has
its RISE Anxious as the English undoubtedly are
for the preservation of the peace of Europe, they
do not by any means desire to- good an under
standing between Napoleon and his neighbors along
and across the Rhine. The position of Great Brit
ain is already sufficiently is lated.
Suppose a quarrel to arise with France--a con-
tngency which, in spite of all the friendly profes
sons of the Emperor, and all the arguments OF the
French press, inpresses itself every day more and
more upon the English nIagination-suppose such
a quarrel To arise where could the British look tor
allies Certainly not TO Russie, which, though
somewhat displaced at this moment by France
from its standing position Of British busbear, still
remains an object of apprehension but little II at
all diminished by the results of the Crimean war.
Instead of assistance from Russia, England might
rather apprehend cooperation on her part with
France, she threatening India, while Napoleon
throws French army across the English channel.
AS to Austria at present she would seem to
have her hands quite full in keeping her own Ill
compacted and dissatisfied empire from tumbiing
10 pieces. Moreover the Conduct of England in
relation TO the affairs Of Italy has lett the Austrian
authorities in no very friendly state of mind.
Should Napoleon succeed in establishing an inti-
mate alliance with Prussia, and IN putting entirely
TO rest those feelings of jealousy and alarm reused
throughout Germany by the Italian war, aud only
prevented by the sudden peace of Villafranca
nom bur, ting out into open hOstIlltles, he would
then be left unemtnrIassed to test, if he saw tit
the discipline and courage of the British volun-
GERS and the streI 9Th of the lew British OTtltca
tons for which so large sum Of money has just
been voted.
1t is no doubt true that Germany might see in
the success of French invasion of England ulti-
mate dangers to her own independence, and might
IN that ground alone, be inclined to interfere to
prevent it. But it is quite natural that the Ed
gsh should prefer to stand rather in the position
of defending Germany against invasion than of
being defended by her-or having the Germans
looking to her for assistance rather than Of asking
assistance from them. Hence the English journals,
much as they deprecate continental war, do not
contemplate with entire cOmpacency the establish
ment of too firm continental peace. Since it is
impossible, while France keeps up her present mill
tary and naval establishment, that England should
be entirely free from apprehensions, she prefers
rather to share these apprehensions with others
than to have them confined to herself

Although the Special Committee of the Board of
Education on the disnissals in the Fourth Ward
only recommend action which shall prevent such
arbitrary exercise of power by local school boards
in future, yet by happy chance the payroll of
that Ward was not signed by one of the Inspectors
and has been referred to the Finance Committee of
the Central Board. They meet this evening, and
have it in their power to inquire into the legality of
the appointment of the Lew teachers. If, as is as
serted of the Inspectors was present and voted
when the old teachers were turned out, the FL
nance Committee and the Board can declare the
dismissals void, and refuse to pay the new ap
pcintees. 1t is only however, by this fortunate
accident, and not by any virtue in our bungling
system of education, that there is power of re-
view over this iniquitous proceeding.

A double murder was perpetrated in Eighteenth
street on Saturday night, near Third avenue. Mr..
John Walton, wealthy dstiller, living 10 Twenty
fifth street, was shot down in cold blood, and with
evident premeditaton, and died in few hours of
his wounds. The flying murderer was pursued
few blocks by several citizens when, seeing that
he was in danger of being captured he turned and
fred upon his pursuers. Mr.. John W. Matthews,
railroad conductor, received the charge full 10 the
breast, and sinking to the pavement, expired
almost instantly. Suspicion points very strongly
toward the murderer, but as yet the suspected
man has not been found. We print full particulars
in another column.

ARP. uUGuEs ON iTALy.

We print elsewhere this morning condensed
report of the lecture of Archbishop Hughes in St.
Patrlck's yesterday on the political state OF Italy,
especially of that portion of the so.cslled States
the Church which has recently severed its
political connection with Rome, and chosen
another rule instead. This inctes comment,
which we shall strive TO make clear though brlet.
The Archbishop seems to us exceedingly careful
of enunciating, or even indicating, his idea of the
fundamental basis of civil government. He is
cbaIy of putting forth any statement of principles
whatever. He does, indeed, tel. US, with eyident
compacency, that the Papa rule over the Romagna
originated in the abandonment of Italy By the
Eastern Emperors, ard the consequent Invocation
by the People of the Pope TO become their protec-
tor and ruler. That seems to US very legiti.
mate aud valid foundation Of title. But does the
Archbishop hold that though the people of Romagna,
a thousand years ago. had right to make this
choice the ROmagols of to-day have no equivalent,
no corresponding rightl Does he or d"es he not
hold that the will of peopleOf the actual, living
people-has any rightiul potency in the choice of
their rulers? Does he, or does he not, hold with
Jefferson that governments derive their just pow
"ers from the consent Of the governed that
the people have a natural, indefeasble right to
change or abolish an existing rule if they think
hestl We cannot learn from this discourse that
be does believe anything of the sort-and his silence
is most significant Indeed from what he does say
about peoples being often dissatisfied with their
rnlers. we infer that he regards this a matter of
IL, aui .ouunt my alI1ata FIN,
title of those rulers to bear sway.
Now it were idle to attempt TO discuss such
,onic without souc definite understanding as to
first principles. We might eNpend column IL

essential facts in the case--Inight show that the
sovereignty of the Romagna was never conferred
