MONDAY, JUNE 18, 1860.  THE DAY'S NEWS.  nstant.  The Prince Regent of Prussia and the o•,her Sovereigns and Princes of Germany, all except Austria—an important and significant excepion —have met the Emperor of the French, and sat in Congress with him, at Baden-Baden. rhe details of the movements of these great lersonages on this important occasion will be foind in another column. It is stated, on what is ca led good authority, that at an interview with the Prince Regent the Emperor Napoleon repeated his peaceful assurances, and said that he desired an interview in order to express them verbally. The Pays asserts that the interview between the Emperor and the Prince Regent was most cordial. It is asserted that communications exchanged between Berlin and Vienna represent the interview at Baden as a most auspicious event, and as a token of the general pacification of Germany and Europe. It has been remarked that nothing but an actual appetite for self-humiliation could bring Prussia, with a crowd of small sovereigns, to attend the levee of a French Emperor at Baden. The man who can destroy them can do them good if he thinks fit. The map of Europe is disjointed; landmarks are removed ; there is giving and taking. A state threatened with absorption may reasonably plead, not only for existence, but for a modest degree of aggrandisement. So every crowned head in Germany, excepting Austria, has been doing honour to the Emperor of the French. Would they like another confederation of the Rhine ? It is scarcely possible to pity those who invoke their own doom, and commit felo de se in the act of dishonest expectations. M. Thouvenel is concerting with Count Cavour the line of policy to be followed by the Governments of France and Sardinia in common, in reference to Sicilian affairs. It is said that despatches received in Paris, from Baron Brenier, state that a revolution is imminent in the kingdom of Naples. The mission of the Commander de Martino to the French Cabinet has completely failed.  The Government of Naples is said to be organising a military manifestation in favour of the proclamation of a constitution.  The Secret Committee of Messina is in correspondence with Garibaldi. The insurrection in Calabria has been denied. Catania has been evacuated. Several officers and a party of Neapolitan soldiers have deserted and returned to Palermo, whence they have been sent to Calabria. The state of the soldiers was wretched. _ .  Advices from Palermo to the 10th state that Garibaldi was actively organising his army. Letters again state that the English did not occupy the fort of Castellamare during the embarkation of the Neapolitan troops. The convocation of a Sicilian Parliament according to the laws of 1848 was shortly expected, for the purpose of ratifying the proclamation which decrees the forfeiture of the rights of the Bourbons and the union of Sicily to the Itiugcl9r4 of Sardinia under 'Victor Emmanuel.  Advices from Rome state that an official de patch had been received from Naples, giving details of the-capture of the two steamers with Garibaldians by the Neapolitan frigate Fulminante., These steamers,-which displayed the Sardinian and Anterican flags, had on board 25,000 muskets, 32 cannons, 2,000,000 lbs. of powder,  and a considerable sum of money : 800 armed pas:sengers were taken prisoners, and, together with the steamers, conveyed to Gaeta, on the 12th  A letter from Naples of the 12th instant men tions, under great reserve, a rumour that 2,000 Garibaldians, supposed to be commanded by Col. Medici, had disembarked at Catanzaria, in Calabria. It was still rumoured that an insurrection had commenced in Calabria, and that the Neapolitan government had sent General Nunziante there as alter ego. Other letters say that General Pianelli, the commander of the army in the Abruzzi, had been summoned to act in Calabria.

Eight French and two English men-of-war were in the Bay of Naples. Garibaldi had opened a national subscription on behalf of the war. The Archbishop and all the noble families in Sicily had subscribed.  " Coming events cast their shadow before." It is a significant fact that General Lamoriciere's wife and family have left Rome, and returned to France. General Lamoriciere has despatched  troops to the Neapolitan frontiers. It is asserted  that Piedmont had promised to prevent an invasion of the Pontifical frontier, unless such invasion was in consequence of a declaration of war by any Power. This declaration of Piedmont was said to have been communicated to the Pope.  A report is current in France that Baron Ricasoli is about to tender his resignation as governor-general of Tuscany. Gavazzi is preaching to large crowds of the lower classes at Florence.  It is worthy of notice that none of the ambassadorial' residences at Paris were illuminated on the night of the annexation fetes. The diplomatic body did not attend the Te Deuin in the  morning. Messrs. John Foster and Co., private bankers, of Bilston, have suspended payment in consequence of having discovered; that the manager, without the knowledge of the firm, has made advances to a house in the iron trade to an ascertained extent of £lO,
