TURIN, July 7.No statesman of any age or country ever played a higher or bolder game than Count Cavcur.In contempt of the old school of Italian patriots, who had been taught by the experience of centuries that a nation can only assert its freedom by its own unaided strength, Count Cavour durst build his hopes for national emancipation on foreign interference.He did not, indeed, reckon on French disinterestedness, but he thought he could establish a permanenent community of interests.He stipulated for the whole of North Italy in behalf of the House of Savoy, allowing the Emperor to help himself as he best could to the ceutral and southern divisions of the Peninsula.It was a shrewd calculation, for the man who could bring within his grasp the territories between Susa and Aquileia and between the Valtellina and the Oattoliea \u2014which constitute the real strength of the country \u2014 would, in the long run, be sure to gain a paramount ascendancy over the remaining districts, which make its decided weakness.We scarcely needed the example of Garibaldi to feel assured that Piedmontese organization could as easily triumph over Sicilian and Neapolitan demoralization as English or French discipline sets at nought any odds at Pekin or in Japan.Unfortunately, the bargain was broken, and Cavour only obtained half the advantages that were to accrue from it.Piedmont did not get Venetia, nor the material strength of the North; but neither did France gain a single inch of ground, or the shadow of moral influence in the centre.The two associates, still nominally allies, are both bidding high for the South, and the stakes are trembling on the fearful scales; on one side is overwhelming strength, deep cunning and compact will; on the other, the conscience of a holy cause, the sympathy and the jealousy of Europe.Who, is to have Naples and Sicily ?Cavour is lashed into preternatural activity.He has established the best understanding with Garibaldi.He pushes the Southern enterprise on to a speedy catastrophe.The Court of Naples is left to die, like a mad dog, of its own rage.Neapolitan negotiators are cajoled with vague answers to insincere proposals.Neapolitan exiles are encouraged to accept the proffered amnesty, to revisit their native land, to take advantage of anything that may happen\u2014nay, that is sure to turn up in their favour.There is neither faith, nor hope, nor government, nor police, nor army, nor people,\u2014nothing at Naples but blank dismay.The Neapolitans will never make their own destinies.Will Cavour and Garibaldi be the quickest, or will Napoleon be the strongest ?This is the whole question.Cavour and Garibaldi are now on the footing of the most thorough understanding.Indeed, any coldness supposed to exist between them, notwithstanding their passes at arms on the cruel question of Nice, was at all times rather apparent than real.I am not quite positive, that it was not make believe.Cavour and Garibaldi are both compassing the fai 1 of a dynasty which has no longer a real friend in the union of the South with the North of the Peninsula.Their object is even too easily attainable, but for the distracting fear of the interference of France.Yet France proclaimed that she would abstain from any such interference.Yet\u2014yet?Does tie Emperor ever say what he means?Ever say anything but the contrary of what he means ?Is he finessing from the mere love of intrigue, or is he only cajoling France and throwing dust into the eyes of Europe ?It is on this point that I never find it possible to bring any two Italians to agree.There are those who fancy the Emperor\u2019s true mind never to have been fully revealed except in the generous proclamation of Milan.He broke off' his victorious career lest the Italians should obtain their freedom at too cheap a rate.For the rest he half sheathed his sword, only taking care that his attitude should secure fair play for the Italians.He kept the Austrians off Central Italy, and Central Italy was won without any direct interference on his part.Now comes the turn of Naples, and again the Italians work under the agis of Non-Intervention- What more can Italian patriotism wish for ?Only under all this bright surface we have an under-current as we had all along in Central Italy.There it was Plonplonism, here it is Muratism.Will France consent to the unseating of the Bourbons for the sake of Italy or for her own sake ?There is only one friend of Italy in all France, they say, and that is the Emperor Napoleon ; all the other politicians have a dread of Italian unity.If Napoleon wishes to unite Italy, he must hoodwink and lead astray French meanness by seeming to connive at French ambition.Such are the thoughts swarming in Italian brains.I lay my finger on the pulse of this long-enduring Italian nation, and the thrill of their new life disturbs my sober judgment, and 1 am carried along with their sanguine expectation almost in spite of myself.No doubt, in the meanwhile, French agents are at work.Missionaries, with arms and money, are gathering in Tuscany, and one by one smuggling themselves into the Southern kingdoms.Muratists in Naples I do not believe there are any ; but, in the helplessness of the Bourbon Government, a single colonel of a royal regiment or a Lazzaroni ringleader may have Naples at his back for a time.It behoves Garibaldi and Cavour to hasten their move1; ments.Colonel Turr and Major Trecchi are here from Sicily, the former suffering from a serions pulmonary complaint ; the latter supposed to have come as a messenger from the Sicilian Dictator.They give a very good account of the state of things in Sicily, where order prevails, at least in the towns.Several incorrigible mischiefmakers, of the so-called Ultra-democratic school, have been summarily laid hold of and shipped off.Mazzini has not yet been heard of.A body-guard of 150 men, chosen out of the young Sicilian nobility, has been appointed to Garibaldi, whose safety requires constant watching.SYRIA AND PALESTINE.A letter from Jaffa of the 21st ult.in the Gazette du Midi says :\u2014 \u201cPalestine already feels the effect of the horrible scenes enacted in the Lebanon.No Ohristian of Damascus dares leave his house for fear of a rising of the fanatic Mussulmans of that great city.A body of 5,000 Bedouiu-Saks are now ravaging Tiberiade and the neighbourhood.Serious fears are entertained for Nazareth and the towns in the interior.\u201d IRELAND.{From the Times Correspondent.) Dublin, Monday Morning.SALE OP THE GALWAY SUBSIDY.The followiog observations upon the situation are extracted from the traue report of the Freeman\u2019s Journal.The writer takes a business like and sensible view of the question at issue .\u2014 \u201c Negotiations are still pending between the Canadian Government and the Galway Steam Packet Oompany, which, if carried to a succes-ful issue, as is anticipated, will prove a great national advantage.The Canadian Government offers to make Galway a packet station, not a port of call, and thus will be realised for Ireland, under the joint guarantee of the home and colonial Governments, the permanent establishment of a Transatlantic packet station on the west coast of Ireland.The importance of this result, in a commercial point of view, cannot be over-estimated while the shareholders in Ireland who subscribed rather to secure this result than to make a profitable investment will be relieved from all the financial difficulties which have hithereto surrounded the project.The last yearly account of the oompany showed a loss of nearly £120,000.The half-year just past will probably exhibit a proportionate loss which would represent something like £180,000.This estimate is, of course, conjectural on our part, but we have little reason to doubt that we are near the true figures.The appeal of the directory, made last month, for power to raise £250,000 new capital os to borrow £400,000, rather indicates mat we are below than above the mark.It is plain, however, that no more money can be procureu in England in the shape of capital, and the almost unanimous decision of the Irian shareholders not to give the powers demanded to the directors shows that there is at least no willingness on the part of the Irish holders to give more capital to the present directory.The sum already subscribed in Ireland amounts in round numbers to about £170,000.If our conjecture be right as to the present financial condition of the company, the Irish party would have to subscribe something like 3 00 -000, jmore in the shape of new capit a), and fur-ther calls in order to carry on the speculation with any chance of success.We have all through stated that, having gone into the speculation, there was nothing for it but to give a cheerful and liberal pecuniary support to the governing body, or to allow the matter to fall through.The national character of the undertakings shuts out the latter alternative, as few of the Irish shareholders entered into the pro- ject as a mere monetary investment, but solely with a view to the commercial interests ot this country.There is another view oi the matter which we often discussed,\u2014viz., the transfer of the governing body to Ireland, but we understand there are legal difficulties in the way of such a change, and this transfer, while it would guarantee improved management, would still require the additional capital of £300,000, and put the Irish party in the disadvantageous position of beginning with a loss little short of £180,000, (according to our estimate) to work a great project requiring zeal, energy, and social knowledge.If the négociations now proceeding result in an arrangement between the Government and the compa-ny, the commercial result will be enhanced, not only without further demand on the Irish shareholders, but with a reasonable prospect of the return of a substantial proportion oi their capital.If it be true that the company is in difficulty, either with regard to the contract (and Mr.Gladstone\u2019s statement in the House on Friday shows it is) or with regard to capital, the original holders should give way to preference shareholders, for in no other possible manner could capital be raised in sufficient time, with shares at a discount of from 30 to 40 per cent, and some original stock unissued.On the other hand, if the Government of Canada make Galway a station and not a port of call like Cork, and gives its influence to the project,\u2014and if no more than £180,000 be lost up to this, there ought to be a dividend of from 15s to 17s 6d in the pound for all paid up shareholders.Of course, if the losses be greater than we conjecture the dividend will be less,\u2014but iu the same proportion would be increased the financial difficulty of carrying on the speculation to a successful issue.The present negotiation seems to offer a rationaljsolution of all the difficulties of company.If it terminate in the realization of the great project\u2014the creation of a permanent packet station\u2014for which the Irish people made such efforts, and thus prevent the failure oi a great enterprize, ail wbo took a part in the project will have reason to rejoice at the issue.\u201d (BY BRITISH AND 1HISH MAGNETIC TELEGRAPH.) Galway, July 10.The directors of the Atlantic Royal Mail Steam Navigation Company have definitely assigned their contract to the Canadian Goveru-meot,ar.rt a telegram t>r a private individual, and generously resolved to allow a company, to take the great responsibility off his hands.It is the unfailing peculiarity of an Irish scheme that, whether it be to destroy England utterly, or only to do her a Utile vexation, it ought to be done with English money.Mr.Lever and Mr.Lever\u2019s Irish friends bad no sooner got their scheme into their heads than they naturally turned to the English Post-office to pay for it.If the English Post-office would pay down £172,840 every jear, there was no reason why the land round Galway should not prove valuable, and the wharfs of Galway increase, for a sufficient time to fulfil the hopes of its projectors.How was Mr.Lever to get at the Post-office ?We beg the reader will not tire with these details, for we are about to show him how something was got which has just been sold for £200,000.So short a time ago as May, 1858, Mr.Lever was \u201conly one of the corn merchants at Hanging Ditch, \u201cManchester, and not in a position to obtain a \u201csubsidy, or anything else.\u201d Suddenly, however, his office-door opened, and Mr.U\u2019Malley Irwin came upon him.Mr.Irwin was not a rich man ; for a Parliamentary agent, who knew his circumstances, did not think he would be \u201cwarranted\u201d in running up a heavy bill of costs against him.Neither was he a member of Parliament.He was simply an Irish barrister.Still Mr.Irwin had a lively knack of making acquaintance with men of mark, and he was tree from that common Irish failing of extreme modesty.He would accost Lord Derby on his way to the Treasury, and walk with him to the door of the office ; he .would introduce a man off-hand to Baron Rothschild ; and he could get Lord Olancicarde and other persona of station to go to the Treasury as a deputation.He knew the advantagu which every private bore has over every public man, and he at once took Mr.Lever up, and introduced him right and lett to members of the Government.Mr.Lever was grateful, aud promised to pay all sorts of commissions.Ultimately he entered into a formal agreement to pay this Irish gentleman no less a sum than £10,000 if he should obtain the desired subsidy of £172,840.The carious point of the story is that the subsidy was to some extent actually obtained By means, of memorials and deputations and pamphlets, got up by Mr.Irwin and his Parliamentary agent, such a semblence of an agitation was created that the Derby Government was actually induced to believe that they were doing a very fine thing in bestowing an annual subsidy of £78,000 upon the new line thus got up by Mr.Lever, of Hanging Ditch, Mr.Irwin, of Roscommon, and Mr.Lyster 0\u2018Beyrne, the private secretary of Mr.Lever.Of course, this £78,000 of publie money at ouee gave \u2019substance to the shadow.There was no difficulty in getting np a company to manage so comfortable a sum.Mr.Lever became member for Galway, ships were built with extraordinary rapidity, and if the original adventure had possessed the least vitality it must have gone and prospered.But the whole thing was rotten; All the improvidence and party generosity of a Tory Government could not save it.\u201c The Irish party,\u201d says the Freeman\u2019s Jjurnal, \u201c would have to subscribe something like £300,000 more, in the shape of-new capital and further calls, in order to carry on the speculation with any chance of success.\u201d This the Irish party will not do; so ihe plunder is sold to a Canada Company of sounder consiitmion, and nothing farther remains but for Mr.Leveç to resign his seat for Galway and count ci,9 results of this speculation, and for Lprn Derby to resolve never again to allow u is in teres ted Irish gentlemen to hook on to Trim during any future walks he may take ti, tne Treasury.Probable Schism in the Greek Church.-\u2014 There is at present a tremendous religions ferment in Bulgaria and Roomelia, and it is by no means unlikely that there will be a great schism in the Greek Church.In the neighbourhood of Seres no fewer than 20,000 orthodox Greeks have thrown off the supremacy of the Patriarch at Constantinople, and joined the United Greeks, who recognize the Pope as their spiritual chief.For the moment everything is quiet in Servie, and it is believed at Belgrade that the \u201c faiseurs\" have received orders from Russia to remain passive for a time.ELLIOT!

Companies have been held to very strict account, and we observe that in the case of the Union Bank frauds committed by Pullinger, an action is to be brought by some of the stockholders to recover the amount stolen by the delinquent officer.A City article of the London Times of the 7th instant, puts the position of the Directors and the manager very fairly.After mentioning the nature of their report showing that Pullinger ,had made away with no less than £263,125, which except £11,116 would be a loss, and that it was proposed to meet this, by expending the reserve fund, and a part of the profits, and writing off£120,000 of the capital, it considers how far the managers and directors are culpable on charges that may seem to be indicated by the result.These are wilful .over confidence in an undeserving individual j reckless neglect of duty ; or incompetence.On all these heads it acquits them of moral wrong.Pullinger it says was not known to be of the expensive habits of some similar culprits ; and that the Bank has been managed wfth laborious zeal as well as knowledge is evident from\tits large profits during twenty years,\tand its high\tposition even since the loss.But it adds that these facts by no means show that the event was one \u201c arising as the jargon runs from causes beyond control.\u201d There are it urges \u201c no causes beyond control, and when any : mischief occurs it is from neglect of proper \u201c control somewhere.\"\u2014\u201cThey are deeply to blame.\u201d These general propositions, arising out of the philosophical truth that there must be a cause for every effect, receive practical confirmation in the next number of the same journal, where we read a letter from the late ledger clerk of the Bank, stating that so long ago as 1854, he pointed out discrepancies in the books of the Bank to the assistant manager ; but got for his pains only an intimation that he had no friends among tho Directors, and had better leave the concern.Without, however, alluding to this particular circumstance, we suspect that the Directors may be heîd responsible on the general principle that a man who has charge of the property of another is bound for its safe custody, except in so far as its loss may accrue from the necessary risk incurred in the mode in which he was charged to employ it\u2014as for instance the loss on a bill discounted.But the whole subject of the law of Joint Stock Companies is a very serions one ; and is thought of by far too carelessly by persons deeply interested in it.Extraobdinary Voyage.\u2014Captain Watter-son of the Brechin Castle, now Ijiug in Liverpool, brought his ship home all the way from Cape Horn under such jury masts as he could rig after a gale which snapped his bowsprit short off, carried away the foremast seven feet from the deck, his mainmast at the trussel trees, and his mizzenmast at the eyes ot the rigging.He thus saved thousands ot pounds which would have been lost by going into Valparaiso for repairs, and came home averaging 155 miles a day on a wind and 180 going free.The Galway Steamers.\u2014We publish a somewhat exaggerated though amusing song of triumph over the downfall of the Lever Steam line, from the Times.The whole affair has been a job of the first water ; and yet it has undoubtedly led to the establishment of Transatlantic packet stations on the Irish coast, where geographical considerations indicate that they should be, and yet where there seemed little chance of their being till Lever\u2019s line forced the Cunard and Canadian lines, also to adopt the nearest point to the American shore for the place of departure from Europe, It is another instance of good coming out of evil.From the Times article it would appear moreover that the Canadian line was not to do the St.John\u2019s service ; but this was perhaps changed after the article was written.Red River, Minnesota, and Canada.\u2014A private letter from a resident at Fort Garry, to gentleman of this city, complains bitterly against the inaction of our Provincial Government, in opening up communication with that settlement, and contrasts its indifference with the activity of the Minnesota people.The writer, who is in a position to be thoroughly well informed, says ;\u2014 \u201cI think it was a great mistake for the Canadian government to continue the mail subsidy.Until there is a good road made between Fort Garry and Fort William, not the smallest advantage can result either to Red River settlement or to Canada from a direct mail service.Had the money which is being uselessly thrown away for the conveyance of an empty mail bag from Collingwood to Fort Garry been spent on improving the road, Canada would find herself nearer to Red River in one year than under existing circumstances she can hope to be in ten.St.Paul is now within nine days of this settlement, while Toronto is as far distant as ever.And, naturally enough, the sympathies of our people are with the Minnesotians, who have hitherto proved their best friends.\u201d Quebec Timber Market.\u2014Messrs.Forsyth & Bell\u2019s weekly circular shows not the slightest

past, sustained a most severe loss in the removal of one of their most beloved aud and respected members.We allude, of course, to the death of Mrs.Amelia Delesder-niers, the usual notice of which appeared a few days since as an obituary.We canno , however, suffer that one so eminently distinguished for kindness of heart, unwearied charity and unassuming piety, should pass to her silent resting place without some tribute to her worth.Mrs.Delesderniers was married to her late husband, P.F.C.Delesderniers, Esq , in the year 1824, from which time to the present she had been a resident in this neighborhood, with the exception of a few months.Throughout the whole of that period she showed herself a most consistent member of the Church.During the first years of her residence here there was no settled mission of the Church, and only oc.casional services.The writer remembers with what sincere joy she hailed the first movement towards getting a Church and resident clergymen, and how heartily she labored for that purpose.And when she was permitted to see this most earnest desire of her heart accomplishnd, she manifested the sincerity of her zeal by a faithful and regular attendance upon the divine ordinances of the Church up to the period of her death, and by her example and influence led others to do the same- In her the poor have indeed lost a friend ; one ever ready to sympathise in all their sorrows and to supply all their need.To her own immediate relatives her most sudden removal is, of course, an irreparable loss ; but they have the consolation to know that her desire and endeavor through life was to serve her God and Saviour.She thought nothing of sacrificing her own happiness aud comfort for the benefit of others, and even in the very last hour of life she was engaged in fulfilling her Saviour\u2019s most sacred law of love.The service of the Saviour on earth we trust has now been exchanged for the more glorious services of Heaven, and in this comforting faith have we committed her body to the dust \u201c in true and certain hope of the resurrection to eternal life.\u201d The funeral of this lamented lady took place on Monday, and was attended by a large concourse of people from all parts of the Parish, of all persuasions, the poor mingling conspicuously among the crowd of mourners, the best testimony that could be given to the worth of this most estimable and Christian lady.\u2014 Com.suis and merchautc may have been poured out in a massacre as relentless as that of Cuwu-pere._ The extent of the region through tvhich these disturbances are taking place, the large masses engaged, and the boldness of the leaders, show that this is no common outbriatr.Druses, Arabs, Kurds, and even Turkish soldiers to the number of 20,000 are said to have attacked the town of Zahleh.This army was expected to increase to such an extent as to have the whole country in its power.In Damascus people expected to be attacked daily.In Beyrout security was only guaranteed by the presence of European ships of war, and it has been thought necessary both by the English and French Governments to despatch powerful reinforcements to the coast.Butitisnot only Lebanon that is disturbed.From one end of Syria to the other the Christians are expecting some great calamity.If Damascus be taken we firmly believe the event will be the signal for a general extermination of tie Christians in Syria.But now comes the worst part of the history.It seems impossible to doubt that the Turkish authorities, have permitted, and perhaps encouraged, the slaughter of the Christians.Some accounts even indicate a treachery on the part of the Turkish commanders which makes them worse than the Druses themselves.\u201c And this,\u201d an Englishman ill exclaim, \u201c is the Government we have ved.\u201d It is indeed so.We have been oblig i to support the most wretched, in order to ve ourselves from the most formidable, of de tisms.The Sultan rules iu the North throng our jealousy of Russia, and in the South through our jealousy of trance.Had we abandoned him in 1840, both Druses and Maronites migot now be kept in order by an Egyptian ruler, really a Vicegerent of France.Had we act pted the offers of Nicholas to Sir H.Seymour, the Druses might be kept in order by ourselves.England has remained true to her policy.But no political objects can make ns forget the claims of humanity.If the Porte canno repress these outrages, the Christian Powers must do it.We would direct attention to the change in the hour of departure of the morning train for Boston, New York, &c.; on and after Monday next it will leave at half past six.\u2014See advertisement Montreal and Champlain R R.M.Hambujer\u2019s Performances.\u2014The first of these performances will come off on Monday evening, in Nordheimers\u2019 Music Hall, under the patronage of Lieut.-Gen.Sir W.F.Williams and the officers of the Garrison.In addition to the other attractions, the band of the R.G.Rifles will be in attendance, We shall have something more to say respecting M.Hambujer in our next.The European News.\u2014 The intelligence from Italy which we publish elsewhere from two or three quarters, shows that Garibaldi has already met with one of those crises which are the lot of rulers, who acknowledge the popular authority as paramount.The short statement of the change in his Sicilian ministry, seems to bo that his first organized Cabinet were of the opinion, which has been understood to be also his own, that Piedmont should not accept a part of the Kingdom of the two Sicilies, lest the diplomatic trammels which would thus be imposed upon the recently enfranchised people, should prevent the free action, to which the audacious spirit who has become their chief, seeks to lead them.On the other hand the popular sense appears to have been identical with that of Cavour, that the annexation should be made at once.Garibaldi, after some resistance, gracefully yielded the point, keeping, however, his friend Crispi as his private Secretary.This probably betokens a speedy annexation of the island to the continental kingdom, and draws closer the ties between the two great Italians, Cavour and Garibaldi, of whom we may parody tHe lines of our own poet, and say they are The head which sought Italia\u2019s weal ; The arm that grasped her conquering steel.It is probable, too, that the new Sicilien ministry may have some greater aptitude for local administration than the old one, Joint Stock Companies\u2014The Union Bank of London.\u2014The Joint Stock system is one which is now so intimately connected with the daily life not only of all men of business ; but of many persons unprotected from want except hy a few shares in a Bank or other Joint Stock enterprize, that no apology can ever be required, for throwing light upon the manner in which such concerns are and ought to be managed.Of all classes, however, who are concerned in these speculalations, there are none who are so deeply interested as the persons who act as Directors.It not unfrequentiy happens that we see persons utterly unused to business undertaking the responsibilities of directing operations involving enormous fortunes, while very few eitii\u2019r of such persons, or of others who are from education and habits better fitted for the task, seem to be aware of the personal liability they may incur by slight departures from the letter of the law under which they act, or even by neglect ot precaution to secure the interests of their constituents.The payment of Directors, which is undoubtedly the best plan, is not without its inconvenience in this respect, that the gains thus made induce persons, who would otherwise not think of such occupations, to aspire to posts on Directories, where the fees for meetings enable them to eke out a living.The number of half pay officers aud gentlemen of a similar stamp in England thus engaged is a proof how readily unqualified, persons rush upon this dangerous ground.When there they seem too often to think that no mismanagement, except intentional fraud, brings with it any liability ; and even the coast of fraud upon the the shareholders at large for the benefit of the Directors individually, is often shaved much too closely, either for character or purse, to be quite safe.But the especial weakness of Directors of public companies seems to lie in their resentment of any active inquiries, into their management, whereas this check upon the errors not only of himself, but of other members of his Board, for whose acts he may find himself jointly liable, should above all things be courted by every man holding that office.Publicity and inquiry, at much more frequent intervals than is now usual, will \u2022be some day found to be no less important for ¦the safety of the Director than for the well being of his Company ; for there can be no question of these two things\u2014that the principles of law have not yet had that practical extension, of which they are susceptible in the way of making this class of agents liable, and that that extension will be given to them, often greatly to the surprize as well as damage of those who are the subjects of first experiments.Both in civil and criminal proceedings The Religious Census in England.\u2014A great deal of discussion has been taking place amongst the representatives of various religious bodies as to the taking of the next census.The last census taken seven years ago gave the dissenters a large majority in the population.The Episcopalian part of the Church Militant has conceived that the strength of its corps has thus been unduly depreciated, at any rate, by comparison ; and another mode of taking the religious census has been suggested which is thought more favourable to the Church of England.The dissenters, not choosing to give up their \u2019vantage, object to this mode, apparently because they hold\u2014with or without reason we do not know\u2014that all who have no religion are to be classed as Episcopalians.Mr.Horace Mann, the manager of the last census, has lately stepped into the debate.He defends the last enumeration against the charges of unfairness, and explains the mode then adopted.This was, to apply to the clergyman or minister attached to every building known as a place of worship to furnish the statistics of his own charge\u2014chiefly the capacity of the place and the average number of attendants\u2014 having these checked by the Registrar and another lay officer of the locality.The result he believes cannot be very erroneous.First of all, because, admitting the natural desire of every clergyman to make his own congregation as important as possible, he does not think so meanly of them as to suppose that enough would be guilty of as paltry a piece of lying to permit of any considerable falsification in the whole result ; secondly, because such falsification, if gross enough lo be important, would have been detected by the lay-officers ; thirdly, because the various parts of the return taliy instead of being discrepant, as for example, those respecting the relative numbers of church sittings and church members, which bear about the same proportion\u2014except in some special cases for understood reasons\u2014in the dissenting, and in the Episcopal returns ; fourthly, because the public census has been confirmed by subsequent partial and private census, as for example, by one taken by direction of the Bishop of Oxford, with the idea of showing that the Episcopalian numbers in his Diocese were greater than were returned, but which, in fact, made them less.On the disputed point, however, as to the mode of taking the religious census, Mr.Mann points out that the result arrived at by the method now suggested, and which has been so strongly opposed, will not be to correct a former statement of facts, but to obtain a new fact.The last census, he says, professed to ascertain the number of seats provided in the places of worship throughout the country, and thenumberof attendants.The new plan, if carried out, will profess to ascertain the number of persons ranging themselves nominally under the various religious denominations, whether they are habitual worshippers or not.Men\u2019s Furnishing Goods and Golden Hill Shirts.\u2014The attention of merchants is invited to the advertisement of O.B.Hatch & Co., 403 Broadway, New York, in another column of today\u2019s paper.This concern is one of the oldest in New York, which does business in this line of trade, and those merchants who have purchased of this firm for over 25 years need no recommendation from us.These new style shirts are the most perfectly fitting garment ever manufactured, and are now

IN GENERAL.AND To the Editor of the Montreal Herald.Is it understood that there is to be a general illumination on the evening of the Prince\u2019s arrival?If so, why is it not announced?have heard that there are to be triumphal arches \u2014lit with gas\u2014that there is to be a torch-light procession\u2014that the public buildings are to be illuminated\u2014and that the private public are to be invited to illuminate their residences, hoist flags, &c., but there seems to be a woeful lack of public announcement to guide people in what they are to do and what to expect.What is the programme ?When is the Board of Arts to open their building?Is the illumination to be one night or more, and which will be the night on which private residences are expectea to be illuminated ?What is to be the price to the Ball, to the Concert\u2014to anything?Is there any chance of seeing the Grand Trunk Banquet?or the Grand crowning object ot the Prince\u2019s visit\u2014the opening of the Victoria Bridge ?Can any of the thousands get a sight ?Ye men of the Corporation\u2014ot the Reception Committee\u2014of the Grand Trunk\u2014and of the Board of Arts\u2014pray give us a little more light, You are all to a certain extent public trustees ; therefore, as the man said to the pump\u2014Don\u2019t be stingy ; give us a light.D.E.F.G.The Engagement of Mr.Strakosch.\u2014We have received some communications complaining of the engagement of Mr.Strakosch and his companions.We, however, decline to publish any hostile criticisms upon the conduct of the Executive Committee, whether such criticisms meet our own views or not, and we do so on this ground.The Committee has assumed a great deal of trouble, and can have no other object than making the entertainments on the occasion of the Prince\u2019s visit as agreeable as possible to all parties.It is not likely that they will in all cases judge exactly for the best, because, like other people, they are fallible, and especially because they are managing a business without many precedents, and from its very nature susceptible of all kinds of plausible opinions.It is, moreover, certain that, even when they do their best, they will not please every one.But we helped freely to elect them as the best men on the list of subscribers j we have still confidence in them ; and we have not given the questions on which they have to decide any special attention.Under these circumstances, we think them more likely to be right than we or other outside critics would be.Besides, there is a rule that certain classes of people should not see a thing till it is completed.The least that we can do is to wait till we see ail the parts arranged into the symmetrical whole, which we presume the Committee contemplate.If this is not successful, the Committee will feel the only punishment which is appropriate to the case, the absence of that public approval, which is, on the other hand, their only possible reward Preparations for the Approaching Festivities.\u2014We observe that the Bank of B.N.A.and the Montreal Bank are preparing for the illumination at the Prince\u2019s visit, by laying on the gas pipes and putting np the other necessary fixtures.Important Event\u2014the Bay of Fundy and the St.Lawrence Connected by Railway.\u2014 On Wednesday last the Bay of Fundy and the Gulf of St.Lawrence\u2014in loveis\u2019 parlance\u2014 were affianced, preliminary to the celebration of the nuptials, on the first day of August next.In sober language ou that day, a special train, containing about eighty gentlemen passed throughout the length of the European and North American Railway, for the first time, between this City and the City of Moncton; an event, significant we hope of a far reaching prosperity, tor the future of our Province.The invitations issued by the spirited contractors, Messrs.McBean, and Stevens, included a number of our provincial and city officials, Rev\u2019d and professional gentlemen, wealthy and influential merchants and other citizens and several strangers, among whom was the Mayor of the City of Montreal.The day was a fine one, and the arrangements throughout the route proved to be of the most satisfactory character : and the enthusiasm evinced by the population along the line, was as enthusiastically reciprocated in by the occupants of the oar\u2014the avant couriers, of the coming streams of tourists and travellers during future centuries.It is most worthy of note, that the locomotive and car, used on this occasion, for the first time, and appropriately named the \u2018Prince of Wales,\u201d were the manufacture of the artisans of New Brunswick, the former being built at Messrs Fleming and Humbert\u2019s Foundry, and the latter by Mr.James ; each of them equal in scientific arrangement, workmanship and material, to those produced in the United States, or Great Britain.This fact ought to be particularly marked, as proof not only of the enterprise of our people,but of the skilled workmen among them and who thus aid in rendering our City independent of other centres of like industrial pursuits.Of the line ot Railway, but one opinion was formed by the numbers who for the first time travelled upon it ; and whose experience of railways in other countries enabled them to form a correct judgment, and we are pleased to add that that opinion was one unanimously favorable, it is something for New Brunswick to boast of, that this her only line of railway\u2014 most important in a geographical and interna, tional point ot view\u2014is secured to no railway on the con linen t of America.It has not been constructed on the \u201c make believe\u201d system, but in the most substantial manner and as fitted for its work.It will ultimately prove, we have no doubt, the cheapest built road in British America, if not on the American continent.\u2014 Si.Johns Courrier.POLICE COURT\u2014Yesterday.Light Weight.\u2014One Joseph Perrault was prosecuted by the Attorney General for having in his possession a light 4 lb.weight.The charge was borne out by the evidence, but as there were mitigating circumstances, the defendant escaped with a tine of 2s 6d and costs.Thomas Moore was prosecuted for the same offence, and the same penalty was inflicted.Assault.\u2014Two cases of assault came up ;\u2014 one was settled, and the other was postponed Another case of using insulting language was also settled.Une Patrick Hennossy, for being drunk in King street, was fined $t.A merchant, who had used threatening language towards a tailor, was bound over to keep the peace for six months.A.Large Haul.\u2014A German, John Albreck by name, who has already been convicted of felony, was brought before Mr.Coursol yesterday morning, on suspicion of having stolen about 100 hens from the nuns at Point St.Charles.The facts of the case are the-foliow-ing ;\u2014On Monday morning last, a wood dealer, named Frangois Laurent, together with another person, named Frangois Benard, were on the wharf opposite the Police station at the Bonte-cottrs market, when they saw two men having in their possession a bag filled with dead fowls, and a handkerchief with two living ones, all which they suspected had been stolen.Laurent then went up to the station house in the Bansecours market, and informed one Lessard, a serjeant of Police, that there were two men on the wharf with a large qnantity of hens, which he believed had been stolen, at the same time requesting Lessard to go and arrest them.This Lessard refused to do, giving as his reason that he was alone in the station house.Laurent went back to the wharf and saw the two men walking away, but as the police serjeant had refused to arrest them, he did not follow up the case further.A few hours afterwards, an information was lodged with the police that on the night previous the nuns at Point St.Charles had been robbed of about 100 fowls.\u2014 The following day, detective Naiglé arrested the prisoner, Albreck, when he was identified by Laurent as being one of the men whom he had seen the day previous with the bag of fowls.The prisoner has been committed to take his trial at the next Court of Quarter Sessionr.RECORDER\u2019S COURT\u2014Yesterday.There were 11 prisoners brought before the Recorder yesterday morning, but nothing of any interest occurred.The Prince's Oook.\u2014It seems that Toronto and not New York, is to furnish a cook for the Prince, dating his stay in Canada.We are sincerely glad to be assured that it is not the case that Commissioner Rose was away at New York on the unpatriotic misson of selecting a cook for the Prince from this city as if no Canadian muitre de cuisine was competent to tickle a princely palate after an approved fashion.Mr Edward Rogers of this city informs us that the statement of the Rochester Union correspondent, that Hon.Mr.had selected a certain James M Sanderson of New York for the important office, is all bogus, and that he [Mr.Rogers] is an Englishman, and was cook in the household ot Earl St.Germans and the Duke of Northumberland, while those noblemen successively filled the office of Lord Lieutenant of Ireland.During the last two years he has had the charge of getting up a number of the principal entertainments given in this city.A Cook for the Prince.\u2014Mr.Rose, a member of the Canadian Ministry, was here a few days since, attending to matters having reference to the personal comfort of the Prince of Wales and suite during their progress through the Provinces.A principal item among the the many that were embraced in Mr.Rose's programme, was to find some person combining the tastes and habits of a gentleman with a thorough knowledge of the cuisine, æsthetic as well as practical\u2014some one who would relieve the Canadian authorities of all anxieties as to the young kingling\u2019s prog and grog, by presenting to his royal palate, two or three times a day, the fat of the land \u201cfixed up\u201d in style that would do no discredit to the royal spread at home.The person upon whom this appointment might be conferred was to h ve subject to his orders four subordinate stewards, whose duty would be to carry out the orders of their chief\u2014to range over the adjacent regions for the beef, the mutton and the ham, the young hens, the ducks, the pigeons and the woodcock, the berries and melons, the grapes, the apples and the peaches\u2014the everything in short, obtainable in the heavens above, and earth beneath, or the waters under the earth, that could pleasantly affect the royal epiglottis.There were plenty of what are called \u201c good stewards\u201d and \u201cgood cooks,\u201d to be had in every considerable town ; but where to find the man who understood everything in general and in detail, from purchasing \u201ccritters\u201d and things alive and in the rough, to seeing them cooked in the highest style of art and served with unimpeachable taste, that was a question.The subject expands as we dilate; but charming to dwell upon as it is, the subscriber must not do it.Mr.Rose found his man in Mr.James M.Sanderson, steward of the New York Hotel ; and when I tell you that he is author of the brandy, cigars, cookery, champagne, &c.,&c, in Appellon\u2019s New Cïclopœ tia, that he is a fine writer, a good linguist, a capital talker, a good man of business, and a clever fellow generally, yon may readily imagine that he is \u201cthe right man iu the right place;\u201d and that for once \u201c these blasted Canadians, you know,\u201d have hit the nail on the head.Mr.Sanderson will arrange his dry goods immediately, bolt for Quebec, aud there await the arrival of the distinguished individuals to whose tastes he is employed to minister.SARDINIA AND SICILY.[From the Times.] Genoa, July 8.On the 25th of last month there was an interview of two hours between General Garibaldi aed Signor La Farina in the i presence of the Sardinian Admiral Persano.The town was all agog to know the result, and towards evening it was known that a changu of ministry was not to be expected, and for bis own part he was decidedly opposed to the immediate annexation of Sicily to Northern Italy.On the 27 th at 8 o\u2019clock,people began to cluster at the four corners of the Main square.Popular orators began to hold forth on the danger of leaving the Government in the hands of persons who introduced disorder into every branch of the public administration.The crowd set up the cry of \u201cViva Garibaldi ! Down with Crispi! Down with the Ministers 1 They then moved towards the Palace, They were met by the Director of Public Security ; but he was compelled to retire.He was followed by the more popular Baron Riso, who persuaded the multitude not to go ' to the Dictator\u2019s residence, but to proceed to the Town-hall, and thenee send the Dictator a deputation.The deputation went to the Dictator and called for a change in the Ministry.Garibaldi at first refused to comply.He then asked the deputation if they could suggest other names, as he was unacquainted with persons in Sicily.\u2014 Names were then given to him.The Dictator refused to accept them.The news created a general consternation, as it was thought that the crisis might lead to consequences fatal to the Sicilian cause.New names were proposed and accepted.A few hours later and the new Cabinet were published in the official journal.This Ministerial change has given the greatest satisfaction to the public.All are known as honourable men, old Liberals belonging to the national party, especially Baron Natoli.Some of these men are hardly up to the weight of the task they have taken upon themselves ; but the public take into consideration their good intentions.Garibaldi while removing Crispi from his public offices, insisted on'keeping him by his side as his private Secretary.The Ministers were charged with throwing ing the country into the disorder, dividing officers en masse, closing the tribunals, trusting incapable persons, with the government of the provinces, and giving preference to well-known Bourbonists or Mazztnians.What people want is the immediate annexation of this country to the Kingdom of Victor Emmanuel.The Sicilians are most willing to aid with their brethren ofNaples, but they wish to secure their own fate, and not venture upon the dangerous game of tout ou rien.It is said that the deputation which conferred with Garibaldi to propose a change in the Ministry named La Farma as the person to be \u201csent for;\u201d but La Farini, on hearing this, declared that nothing would induce him to accept office at this moment, as his programme of \u201cimmediase annexation\u201d is too decided, and might hurt the feelings of Garibaldi, who advised delay.These particulars give a clear idea of the popular movement by which Garibaldi\u2019s own judgment was made l.^ jlu.to the views of people supposed to receive their inspiration from Count Cavour.That Sicily should be annexed to Northern Italy no one entertained any doubt.Only Garibaldi and his advisers, especially Crispi, deemed it necessary to push on their conquests to Naples, and perhaps even Rome, and then unite the whole South with the whole North of Italy.La Farina, and Cavour, and the new Sicilian Ministry deem it advisable to annex Sicily at once.Possibly the ultimate result may turn out the same.Cavour and Garibaldi only differed as to the means, and the latter, always docile and generous, has given in to the exigencies of his opponents, sacrificing even what was in all probability his better judgment.The demolition of the Castle is carried on with great earnestness.People of all classes work and are encouraged by the clergy, who all repair to the spot bearing crosses alternata-ly with national banners.dered the men back to barracks.This was a frcsh piece of tyranny, and it was scarcely to be expected that it should ba obeyed without discontent and grumbling.Had it not been for the fortunate presence of Mr.Miles, W.O\u2019Reilly, of Knockabbey Castle, the Major who just arrived by mail from Civita Vecehia, the Irish Volunteers and the Belgian Volunteers might have destroyed each other.Mr.O\u2019Reilly rushed off to the barracks.The men were just entering the barrack-yard as he came up.He ordered them to fall in, and made them a beautiful speech.The men became as docile as lambs, and ail would now have gone merry as a marriage bell but for an unfortunate event.A battalion of Belgians was quartered in the same barracks as our Irish friends, and the officers in command, who seem to have been quite dead to finer feelings at the commencement ot the disturbance had drawn to his men under arms.Was this outrage to be borne ?By ill-luck there was a stout athletic Irishman at the end of the file, and this gentleman kept calling out to his comrades, \u201c Look at these fellows\u2014they would sell the Pope and join Garibaldi to-morrow; and look at them with their bayonets like sentries to terrify us !r The sight of the Belgians was bad enough, but whoa Major O\u2019Reilly gave the order to right about face, this was the last drop in the cup.The \u201c tall athletic Irishman\u201d turned round, and hit the nearest Belgian such a blow in the face as sent the poor wretch sprawling.The Belgian officer hereupon, as the Nation puts it, \u201c with sad lack of discretion,\u201d ordered his men to prime and load, make ready, present, fire !\u201d Before the last order could be obeyed, O\u2019Reilly rushed between his own men and the levelled guns, and countermanded the direction.The Belgians did not pull a trigger.O\u2019Reilly once more ordered his men into line, but this time he could find no obedience.Irishmen tumbled out from every every door and passage of the barracks, and made a rush at the Belgians, and endeavoured to wrest their arms from them.\u201c The Irish merely wished to disarm the others.They wrested away their guns ; they twisted the bayonets off like twigs, and tossed them into the air by dozens.\u201d The Belgian officer made a cut at an Irishman with his sword ; an Irishman threw a stone at his head, which struck one of his men.So the row went on until 9 o'clock, when everything was again as orderly as if nothing had occurred.The writer in the Nation adds the following comment:\u2014\u201cIn my opinion the Commander-in-Chief looks on the Irish Brigade as aman would on a young horse of incomparable mettle and bottom, needing, however, great trouble to break it in ; but, if once broke in, worth a score of ordinary stuff.-Tim es.Do and Chicago\u2014Red Wheat.10\t8
