The Trustees of the Peabody Fund having
determined to apply the funds which the
munifcence of Mr.. Peabody has placed in their
hands In encouraging the. introduction of the
system of free schools into the Southern States,
by experimenting the work Of the people in
the cause of popular education, the Rev. Mr..
Amos, the Southern agent of that fund, is now
on visit to the North with the object of OBJ
tanning contributions in aid of the available
means at the disposal of the trustees. Those
means, though ample, are far from adequate
to the wants of the population which it is
sought to benefit. Hence the necessity for fur
ther help. Mr. Amos is furnished with testi-
monials OF character from Gems. Grant, Thomas,
and Howard, and several influential gentle
men in the North have already signified their
warm approval of his mission. In view of the
immense benefit which will accrue 10 the South.
and, indirectly, to the whole Union, from the
success OF the plan which the Trustees of the
Peabody Fund have adopted, we cannot
doubt that the appeals of Mr.. Amos will be
literally responded to by all who have faith
In education as an ally of free government.

which would be recognized by all the mathe-
"maticians in the world, could readily be OBJ
"tained.r Then, having ascertained the rela-
tive frequency of coincidence by comparing nu-
merous signatures of Miss Rowland to bills OF

bridge cannot be disputed; IFS practicabilty Is

terminus of the bridge be in the vicinity of the

G4RLRALDI IND ROME.

The recent movements of Garibaldi, and the
speech he made the day before yesterday on
his arrival in Geneva, throw new light on the
grand combinations which are now being formed
in Europe. We only need recount what We
know of the Generals recent movements to
show their close connection with the other
grave questions now agitating Europe.
A few weeks ago the preparations for an in
surrection in the Papal States, and for aiding
this insurrection by an army of Garibaldian
volunteers, had been made on the largest scale.
A strong hope was at one time entertained
that the Ministry would cOnnive at the move
ment, and would make no attempt to prevent the
open collection of the Garibaldian army of
volunteers. Accordingly, the formation of the
army near the Papal frontier was begun, and
the speedy invasion of the States of the Church
openly announced But the Ministry shrank from
offending France, and Ratazz declared that the
Government adhered to tho FrancO-Italian Con-
vention, and would prevent by force any hos
tile demonstration against Rome. The move
ment was, nevertheless, not Immediately
abandoned 1t was thought that the Roman
people themselves, aided by those volunteers
who could elude the vigilance of the Italian
troops, WOuIu Dt dOle w OftIILIOW IHc dItil
rule, and at least demonstrate the
ability of the Italian nation to settle
this question in tue sense Of the National party
as long as foreign Intervention was kept off.
Suddenly, however, the whole movement was
postponed. The volunteers, by order of Carl
baldi, dispersed and returned to their homes.
The General istated THAT the movement
would be made at a more Opportune time. In
his speech at Geneva he says very positively
that the plan of action WiH soon be carried into
effect.
In the meanwhile, the French and Italian
papers charged the Prussian Government with
having supplied Garibald with money and
arms, and with supporting and encouraging in
every possible way his plan of action. The
reports were so positive that there was strong
reason to Believe them not to be without
foundation. The belief in them was greatly
strengthened by the report that Garibaldi had
accepted an invitation from the Prussan
Embassador at Florence to dine with him.
This latter report is now c9ntradicted by a
Cable dispatch, but the denial, even if cortect,
does by no means extend to negotiations
having taken place between Garibaldi
and agents of the Prussian Govern
ment. Garibaldi, Informed of the plans
of Russia and Prussia against Turkey and
Austria, would not be slow to understand that
the right moment FOR tho liberation of Rome
will arrive when France. wholly occupied With

causes of the recent disaster there. One oil
these, from friend Of the defeated ticket,
sums up as follows:
"I said the case could be stated briefly. Here it
is in brief:
THE workingmen defeated The Bulletin, and Attd
of san Francisco and Union of Sacramentoin making
the nominations. Those papers boted the nominal

with patronage, and the workingmen, suspicious.

The highly important dispatch telegraphed to

journal as a ropertory Of news over all our CO.

was first made known in this country through
a special dispatch from our correspondent in
Florence, and now we have the satisfaction of
being the first TO announce movement on the
part of Russia which probably assures the
speedy dissolution of the Turkish empire, and
may be the signal for general European war.
