Mr., Seward and New York,

The correspondent Of the New York
Tribune says Mr.. Seward returned 10
Washington on, the 10Th. He says en-
pha,ically that all the pretended hopes oI
the Democracy resulting from the disap'
poiptment of his friends are absurd, and
that whoever may be the candidate al
Baltimore. he will be defeated by 10000 in
New York, Perhaps they will be con,
soled by this Information. When he re-
appeared in his seat. he was cordially
welcomed by his political friends, But
tie most noticeable feature was the
sudden and atieotionate interest exhibited
by the Democratic side, who swarned
around him.
The very men who deliberately. grAtu.
itously and insultiDgly withheld their re-
cognition upon his return from Europe.
and who had ooncocted a programme Of
persecution for The campaign in expects-
lion OF his nominstion. were foremost in
their greeting. The motive is we'll an.

Italian Affairs.

The news by the last steamers is OF con-
siderable interest. Garibaldi had marched
on Palermo, gathering large reinforce
men,s as he went. and al latest reports
had completely invested the city. The
Neapoli,an troops and officials in Palermo
had become discouraged. The populace
had made more demonstrations, and there
were strong fears that the city would in
all probability, soon fall into, the hands Of
the Insurgents. The Governor Of Messi-
ma had refused to send re.inforcements TO
Palermo, on the ground that lie needed
them for the maintenance Of his own po.
sition. o. - .'a ''
Slight skirmishes between the insur-
gents and the royalsts had taken place
during Garibaldi's march, the accounts OF
which are conflicting, but the result ap'
pear, to have been the retreat Of the Nea-
poltans 10 Palermo and the onward
march Of the Garibsldians towards the
same place. A descent on the mainland

Affairs are coming to crisis in the Pa

appeared in Tuscan. overpowered the

head Of Lake Bolsens. they were met BY
the PonticaI troops and driven back into
Tuscan territory, with a reported loss Of
thirty men. among whom is said to bave
been brother Of the celebrated Orsini.-
The engagement took place in the night.
