contrary, II Is generally believed that
General Menabrea's task will be speedily
and satisfactorily accomplished, and that
q liberal and friendly spirit will be mani
tested on both sides. Various little Incl
dents show the improved understanding
between the two nations and a greatly
increased tendency to Cancellation on the
part OF the Austrian Government, which
seems unexpectedly disposed to yield
certain points on which it was feared it
would be stubborn. The italians are d
vlndlctlve race, and often INSCRIPTIONS
as TO the means they adopt to damage or
destroy an enemy; but they are also
very subject to kindly and generous i'm
pulses, and few are more graceful in
Cancellation when they choose to adopt
it. The Austrian officers also show 4
courteous and friendly spirit worthy of
their high character rs a body. At Ve-
roma they lately Joined the immense crowd
that followed to his grave an Italian colo
mel dead of wounds received at Custozza.
AS 1 lately predicted, the Empress of
Mexico has found at Milan the warm re-
ception due to her high qualities aud to
her conduct when her husband governed
in Lombardy. The Milan papers tell Of
to visit the new quarters of the town and
the great works now in progress, and
expressed wonder and admiration, as
we'll she might, at all that has been done
since 1859. On Sunday last she visited
the Lake Of Como, and the Villa Giulia,
which still belongs TO her family. The
King sent a general officer TO present her
his compliments at Milan; Prince Hum
bert met her at ViacenZa; Victor Emma
nuel himself welcomed her at Padua.
You have probably seen the report of II
projected alliance between Prince Hum
bert Of Savoy and an Austrian Princess.
At the present moment there is, perhaps,
no foundation for it, but it may very pos
sibly be hereafter justified by events.
CATER a moment Of efervescence," SAYS
a letter in the MOniteur, "the people and
the Government of Italy have come to
feel the utility and the urgency of a peace
indispensable for the solution of impor-
tant domestic questions" On all sides
one finds evidence of this feeling, and of
its being already acted upon. Yesterday,
August 81, the second category of the
levy of 1S45 was to be sent home. Doubt
less this will soon be followed by much
more important reductions. The army
as at present existing is simply running
the country. Three days ago it was
estimated to consist of 100000 men under
arms, costing, at a low estimate, at least
two millions of francs a day, but proba-
bly, two and a half millions would be
nearer the'truth when all the extraordi-
nary and supplementary expenses. came
to be reckoned. Two millions q day is
at the rate of 730 millions a year, which
is more than the whole annual revenue
of Italy was at the beginning of the pre-
seat year. The $50 millions lent by the
National Bank to the Government when
forced currency was given to its paper,
have disappeared, swallowed up in THE
gulf of the war, and the treasury is again

What is Sauce for the G00Se is Not
 Sauce for the Cander.

I Inc editor of the Mobile Advertiser and Rcgtster, in an able article on the Assas- sination Committee" says:
 A curious collection of mutilated docu- ments is brought forward by the commit tee, to prove what everybody knew before that Messrs. Thompson and Clay were acting in Canada as agents of the Conted- crate government, and that they were endeavoring to cripple and harrass the enemy for the benefit of their own country and her cause It would be amusing, Ii such subjects could amuse to mark the pious horror with which the committee speaks Of efforts to promote disaffectlon Tn the northern states, at a time when the federal government was openly encourag- ing insurrection in the south 1t was honorable and heroic to invade the south ern states, to burn cities, destroy crops, and plunder plantations; but it was an atrocious crime to make retaliatory raid upon a village in Vermont and to frighten the women and children ofPilgrim stock, who were exulting in the ruin of southern homes aud the miseries of southern maids and matrons. But why should we speak of these things? It is very evident that what is sauce for the southern goose is not sauce for the northern gander.

THE CONVENTION.

The Philadelphia Convention has met and adjourned, but with what results we 'are unabled to say, because of the failure of mails. From the meager report before us. we gather that great harmony prevailed, and much interest was manifested in the condition of the country. South Carolina aud Massachusetts entered the Convention arm in arm, amidst loud applause, and re peated cheering for the whole Union. It must have been sight to make glad the hearts all true lovers of the country, to see men from every State in the Union confering in concord and harmony, for the good of the whole country. An address was read by the Hon. Henry J. Raymond, of New York, from which we make the following paragraph
 And the ten millions of Americans who live in the South would be unworthy citizens of free commonwealth, degener- ate sons of a common ancestry, unfit ever to become guardians of the right principles bequeathed to us by the fathers and found CTS of the republic, if they could accept with accomplishing submission the humil- iations thus sought to be imposed upon them"

HENRY A. WISE ON THE CHURcHEs.-Ex- Governor Wise delivered very remarkable address in Norfolk the other day for the bene- fit of the Southern churches devastated by the war. He took the grounds while alluding to the late rebellion, which have been adopted for the first time by any Southern orator. that the war was brought about by the act of God for the destruction of slavery, and, taking this view of the subject, Governor Wise argues that no one should be punished for acts com mitted according to the dispensations of Heaven. Governor Wise said =
 He is. fear, an inidel who doesn't see that the fire and sword of this war were sent from heaven God knew that we could be torn away from our black idol of slavery only by fire and blood and the drawn sword of the de- stroying angel of war. He sent them, and we ought to praise the Most High that he did not send worse plaques, like those of Egypt, against whatever weakness or wiekedness we c!ung to like Pharoah. But appeal to Chris tian charity, and to every known law, whether individual citizens and persons ought to be vindictively punished by man or government for the acts of sovereign States and the ineyi- table interpretation of Divine Providence.
