federal cruisers, by stationing themselves Just
outside the prescribed limits from the shore,

Mr.. Sldell had an interview with M Thou
venal subsequent to his audience with the en-
peror, and NJ. Thouvenal is asserted to have
alleged that the unwillingness of England was

ed as pretty certain.

grand banquet was given at Sheffield to
Lord Palmerston, who in his speech regretted
the prevailing distress in the manufacturing
districts, but thought all would admit the wis
dom of the government in not attempting to
relieve that distress by interference. He con-
sdered interference would only make matters
worse, and the government would therefore
maintain strict neutrality. He hoped that the
evils now existing would soon have an end,
that charitable feeling would yet prevail on
the other side of the Atlantic, and that anoth-
er year would not see a continuance Of the
present deluge of blood.
Mr. Roebuck made a long speech He said
he had no doubt America would be divided in
two, and he thought ultimately into five parts,
and forever cease to be the United States He
denounced the conduct of the north as an i'm
moral proceeding, totally incapable of sue
cess. Cries of mo, no, Eyes, yes" Thus
they could never be reunited. The war was
a mere waste Of blood. 1t was no war against
slavery.
The American correspondence of the Times
and other papers represent the recruiting as a
failure, but the Stars correspondent says
there is no doubt that in a few weeks the pres
ident's call would be fully responded to. He
represents McClellan's army as stronger than

Many French journals speak with great
aexiety as to Italian affairs under Garibaldi's
movements. The Opiniene rationale de-
plores the fatal hesitation which makes the
French government shrink from the necessa-
ry solution, viz: '"The evacuation of Rome"
The Paris correspondent of the Daily News
asserts positively that Garibaldi had refused
to obey Victor EmanuePs proclamation. The
rumors that an English fleet ordered to
join the French squadron in interference
with Garibaldi proved false. A letter from
Palermo says, "The enthusiasm for Garibald
is so great that young men were disappearing
entirely from the place, and if other cities in
Sicily initiate Palermo, Garibaldi must soon
be at the head of $4,000 volunteers.
La France says that Garibaldi held coun-
| Gil Of war at Ceffala on the 4th, at which it
was decided to march on Rome, notwithstand-
ing the remonstrance from Turin. The vol
unteers numbered six thousand Garibaldi
had chartered six large vessels. His plan is
said to be to land in the gulf of Palermo,
| there to be joined by an auxiliary force, and
march on the Roman states. The official ga.
zette says that the Garibaldian volunteers
would leave for Messina instead of Palermo.
They number three thousand, and are divided
into three columns, one conducted by Carl
baldi in person.
In the Turin chamber of deputies, Sth, M.
Ratzzi said there was rumor, not officially
confirmed, that an encounter had taken place
between the troops and band of Garibaldians,
and that the troops lost fifty muskets.
