THE News FROM ITALY.--Cable telegrams of yesterday bring us the important inteil- g@nce that Menabrea has succeeded in torming & ministry in lisly; and that a proclamation bas bcen issued by the Kiog denouncing Gari- baldi and declaring that the policy of France im maintaining the obligations of the Se ptem- ber convention meets with the approval of the atalian Government. Particulars of the en- gagement at Mon‘e Rotondo represent the fighting as obsumate on both sidts. At one time during the fight, when the Papal troops were reinforced, the Tesult seemed doubtful, but at the end of the conflict, Garibaldi, who led the volunteers in person, was completely successtul. He followed up his victory imme: diately, and followed the defeated soldiers of the Pope, who fell back on Rome, pursuing them vigorously. At last accounts from the South, Garibaldi, with all his army, 10.000 to 12,0¢0 strong, bad reached the outer forilfica- tiors of Rome. Advices trom Rome state that great agitation prevailed. The authorities were hourly expecting at attack from (ari- baldi, Pope Pius IX had retired irom the Vactican, and sought reiuge in the Uasile Saint Angel THE BRITISH MINISTER AT WASHINGTON. The new Minister whom we send to you is Edward Thornton, Eeq.. lately British Envoy at Rio Janeiro Rather oddly you may cail him in America, if you areso minded, by a much more sonorous title. Here he is Ed- ward Thornton, C. B.—with you he may be Count of Oassilhbas. Mr. Thornton's father bad this title conferred upon him by the King ef Portugal, for three lives, and George 1V. sanctioned its adoption with the usual condi- tlon—that it should not be borne in Engiand. I am afraid some of the papers will have a ten- dency to call the new Minister Count Thorn- ton. He has had a long experience of a diplo- matist's duties, bat his appointment is generally looked upon as » mistake. To-day’s Specta- tor and the ‘Times object to the choice, totally apart from Mr. Thornton's individual merits. which are considerable. Itis felt that a man of greater eminence should have been sent to you—as the Times putsit: “The Government Ought to have studied toavoid sending a Min- ister to America whose merits areonly known to the official class, and of whom every one else in England is obliged to ask, ‘Whois he?

English and Ameri- can publishers are now vieing with ech other in getting out cheap editicns of popular novels, and their efforts are likely to result in placing the productions of the mos: eminent authors in both countries at a price low enough to en- able every family to grace their book shelves with the works of their tavorite writers. There is now an animated competition on this side of the Atlantic as to who siall issue the neatest and cheapest editions of Dickens, Thackeray, and Bulwer, in consequence of which rivalry, finely illustrated, clearly printed, and tastefully and duzably bound volumes can be purchased for prices only a little greater than we hive heretofore paid for the flimsy paper blurred type, and paper covers which characterized former at- lemy ts at furnishing low-priced publications. As an illustration of whatis beimg done in England in the same direction. Messrs. Drench & Kichardeon successors to Hudson Taylor, send us two volumes of the Waverly Novels, by Sir Walter Scott, published by John Uam. den Haiten, Piccedilly, London. Each vol- ume, containing five novels complete, and nn- abridged, they can afford to sell here for the low price of $1.50. Of the two yolumes we have received, oa contains Waverly, Rob Roy. Monastery, Kenilworth and the Pirate: the other, Ivanhoe, Fortanes ot Nigel, Old Mortality, Guy Mannering. and the Bride of Lammermoor. The Prize Ring.

Rey Dr. Butler delivered a few encouraging in which he said thatduring his min- istry im this aity--a period of more than eigh- teen years—we never had 80 many young men engaged in the good work as in the iast four er fiveyrars. The state of the Association here was highly encouraging, and it was attributa- ble, in @ great degree. to the fact that they worked independent of church or division lines; all worked harmoniously together. Gen. Howard followed with a brief prayer, after which Rev. Dr. Gurley addressed the as- semblage in a few pertinent remarks. A benediction was pronounced by Key.

TO-DAY. ‘The Second Annual Convention of the Young Men’s Christian Association, of Maryland and the District of Columbia, assembled this morn- ing atthe Foundry M. E. Church, corner of 14th and G streets, a large number of dele- gates being present. Among whom were three colored delegates, W.A. Frceman, W. H. Beck- eu and Richard Reed, representing the Ool- ored Young Men’s Christian Association, of this city. ‘The Convention was called to order by Rev, A. A.E. Taylor, of Georgetown, and opened Nee religious exercises conducted by Mr. Tay- lor. Mr. O. B. Ramsdell moved that Mr. A. K. Browne, Vice-President of the la3t Conven- tion, be elected temporary chairman: which motion was adopted Upon taking the Chair Mr. Browne returned his thanks for the bonor conferred upon him, and said the first Convention of the Associa- tion was one of remarkable interest,and worked @ vast amount of good. We meet not to pro- mote Reeciarian or political organization, but as Christian young mea, enlisied under the banner of the cross. We meet to promote the gocd work of serving eur master and save souls {rom destruciior. Mr. James L. Chance, of the Baltimore Uen- tral Association, was elected temporary Sec- retary. On motion of Mr, Johnson, the same rules of order as adopted jast year were adopted for the government of the Coayention this year. Mr. D. W. Glass, of Baitimore, moved that a ccmmiti-e of ihree be appointed to examine the credentials of delegates; adopted, and the Chair appointed as such ‘committee D. W. Giuss, C. F. Bailey and F. B.

B. Ramsdell, of the Washington Asso- ciation. Gen. Brown, of New Orleans, addrezged the Association, aud said the Young Men’s Chris- tian Association of New Orleans had but few members. They were hostile to persons from the North, and appeared as if they did not want them. He had never witnessed such crime as prevailed in New Orleans. Gen. B. suid he was at the session of the Chicago As. sociation a short time since, and they had ac- complished much good. Delegates had been sent out and worked hard. He knew oneman who wes in the srmy, and was notorious asa wicked man, but he found that he nad now become a Chrisuap, and was a prominent worker in the Chicago Association. Dr. Gillette asked if there was an organized Young Men's Christian Associaiion in New Orleans. General Brown replied one did exist before the war, but there were but few members now. though he thought a@ better time might be expected. ‘ev. A. A. E, Tsylor offered the following Tecolution : Revolred, That this convention express its sympathy with tke present movement of the young men of Itely against the stronghold of Papal superstition and irays, that it may speedily result in the triumph of religious liberty, the freedom of the word of God, and the advancement of the Kingdom of our Receemer.

Mr. Jobnson said the credentials of the col- ored delegates were perfect, and those who objected to their admission were not Uhrirtian | men. | The Ohair stated the question was, Should the report be received and the Vice Presidenis | be elected as the list was amended. Mr. Geddes ssked to decline the nomination as one of the Vice Presidents, as he bad to leave the city. He nominated in his place Mr. Alex. Rutherford. The declination was accepted. ‘The vote was then ‘aken on the adoption ct the report, and resulted in the election of the Vice Presidents by a voce of 16 yeas to 10 nays. The Vice Presidents, including Nir. Beck: then took their sea‘s in front of the President. Mersrs. David W. Glass and R B.Taylor | were elected Secretaries. } Mr. D, Hart, of Baltimore, stated tha: ne was the one who wished to secede from the convention. He was not the enemy of the colored people. He had worked im the im- provementof theireducation. He did not wish to be conneeted with any association where sectsrianism was iptrodnced, as it bad been done here. He should continue to work in the cause of Christ, and sugtain his reputation as achristian. He desired to withhraw from the | as: ociation. Mr. Wm. H. Becket, colored, explained the or zation to which he was amember. They had elected delegates to this convention, and | regretted that their action had created any dis- cord. The Colored Christian Association, of this city, desired to promote the cause of Christ, ‘and should a contrary res}! ensue it ‘would be Inmented indeed. Mr. Geddis, of Baltimore, was opposed to colored and white associations mingling in the same body. Let colored Baptist ard Meth- odist associations exist, but Jet them hold their meetings separate. He wished also to secede | from the convention. | Mr. Ridgely, of Harrisonville, did not mean | to secede from the convention He was not unwilling to sssociate with any body of Chris- tians, Do matter of what race or color; but he had voted against the amendment because he believed such action would create discord. Rev. Dr. Gurley regretted the turn waich affairs had taken. He was willing they (the colored people) should have their own asso- ciations, and conduct them as they thought best, and on occasions tike these, when gen- eral conventions convened, he could see no ob- jection to their bc admitted. They could thereby observe the proceedings and learn how | to improve their own race, while no harm | could possibly accrue to the white men form- | ing other asscciations. Looking at the matr-r in a Christian hight, there could be no cause of | serious dissatisfaction. Mr. Joseph Bulgania, of Baltimore, protested | earnestly against the smendment. If such a | state of things had been anticipated before the | assem bling of the Convention, it was very cer- tain that he Baltimore association wouid not be represented. Mr. A. K. Browne, of Washington, moved that the diseenting members of the Baltimore Asrociation be permitted to enter their protest againet the adoption of the amendment, and upon this motion he wished to make a few Temarks. While he very much regretted the opposition of a porticn of the Baltimore dele- gation, yet he sdmired the spirit which they | bad evinced. It was to be hoped that no per- | son would withdraw from this meeting, and | | he had no idea that such a course was.at all necessary. The speaker referred to the pro- ce: dings of a recent convention, where a C federate officer was present among colored | members, and worked in Christain harmony with them. Mr. Hart rejoined. He, too, had been a con- federate officer, and he could with sinverity extend the right hand of fellowship to the col. ored man. (Were ner ere Sere and cordially shook the band of Mr. Becket, the colored vice president.) Notwithstanding this. he could not conceive the prepriety of : making a epecial provision whereby acolcred | person should be made a vice president of the convention. He again urged hie protest, and wished it entered upon record. Mr. Geddis said the time had arrived for him io leave the city anyhow. and whether the convention agrecd or not, he should with. araw from the body. After some further re- marks, he submitted the following: “We respectfully request that our names be | struck trom the rolls of this convention as members of said body. Signed—B. M. Dennis, John R. Fairbank, G. | W. Maynard, James W. Geddis—all of the West Baltimore Association.” Mr. Rutherford, of Baltimore, opposed the action of the seceders. Mr. J. B. Browne sincerely deplored the ex- | istence of such feelings as had been shown to- | day. It was deeply to be regretted: and, to prevent its further spread, he moved that the whole discussion be put a stop to. Mr. Geddis denied ina most earnest man- ner the impu’ation of being an enemy of the colored race. Thegentieman who had offered the amendment which had admitted a colored Tepresen'ative, and which had excited such discord, knew at the time that it would throw afire-brend im the body, and have an inju- Tidus tendency. He insisted upon withdraw- ing from the convention. Mr. Johnsen, the sutbor of the amendment. denied that it was his purpose to create un- pleasant feelings among the members. Mr. Small, of the Central Association, of Baltimore, was also a friend to the colored man, and had no desire to circumscribe any of his privileges; but he was opposed to the enact- ment of a special law for the benefitot the col- ored association, whereby one of their num- ber shall be madea vice president of a conven. tion where they had never before been admit- ted. He reiterated his intention to withdraw. Mr. Bullgania spoke in favor of harmony, eud hoped that every member, however reluc_ tant te admit colored representatives, would be willing to do something to heal the troubled waters. In bebalt of the associations of Wash- ington he appealed for a better state of feeling. Rey. A.A.E. Taylor, of Georgetown, did not believe in social equality between the col- ored and the white man, but still he conld see no objection to their sitting down to the table of the Lord together, in common bond of brotherhood. Mr. Ramedale, of Washington, offered the following : “ Resolved, That for the sake of preventing ccs a the be Mg tah Mr. Becket, the colo; ice _preaident wested to with. draw from that office.”” oe Mr. J. B. Johnson, of Washington, moved that the resolution be laid on the table. Upon the vote being taken, the motion was Jost by & vote of 11 to 13. Mr. Michaels sppeeied to Mr. Beckett, tne colored vice president, to withdraw from the stand. Such astep could not injure him in the least, while at the same time it would heal the sericus breach which was likely to result by bis maintaining his present position. ‘Mr. Dennis did not wish to be understood objecting to no pemerrnge ie the sotaree, ‘BS8O. » but he colored man being elected an offi Convention.

Poisoning Case at Salisbury. {From the Salisbury (Md.,) New Era.) Our community was startled on Sunday morping last to hear that an attempt had ber made to poison the family of Mr. Joseph Lynch, residing about five miles from th 3 place. ‘On investigation the following facts were elicited: On Saturday evening Mr. Lyne being absent from home, his wife bad prepare 1 supper as usual. and was awaiting his arriyal when two smail children becoming huagry cried for bread. Mrs. Lynch, to satiety ther hunger, took a fresh roii and prove it in two_ giving one-half to e: of children.

A dog that ate wha the children bad leit was found dead the next morning.
