His Excelleney Prince Satriano, Duke of Faormina, Commander-in-Chief and Lieutenant-General of his Sicilian Majesty in Sicily, at Palermo, Roya Mixerry, PaueRMo, February 21, 1864. Mr. Consti—In answer to your esteemed letter of ‘the 15th inst., I have to inform you that the unpleasant event of which you speak in rezard to the marks made on the arms of the United States Vice Consulate at Girgenti, were already dwelt upon in a letter from this Royal Ministry, dated the 1!th of this month, No, 486, In that paper I'spoke of the severe researches I had enjoined upon the local authorities to find the author of that criminal attempt, and I related how much similar events would grieve the government of his, Majesty. Prom the annexed copy of a report from the Intendente of the Province of Girgenti, you will perecive that all the researches have been useless, and, in truth, it is difficult to discover what may have been done by a single person under cover of uight, without witness. Vurthor, the ailair doea not bear the character of a insult, being instead a matter of personal revenge gainst the Vico Consul, and the solicitude shown by the authorities shows how important the King’s government has judged the affair. Tlie sicps which have been taken in regard to the strect lamp will, I trust, remove the odious and unmeri- ted suspicion, which was imputed to the authorities. The street Iamp shall be replaced. Orders have also been issued to obviate in future, the repetition of similar occurrences, which grieve the gov- ernment of the King, who, esteeming highly the friendly connections which bind him to the nation of the United States, employs all his endeavors to maintain them unim- paired. Per jhave directed that the arms be cleaned and replaced by the municipal sg rate of Girgenti, and that the j Syndic of that city shall address a letter to the United | States Vice Consul, testifying the great regret he feels for this painful occurrence. | Teonclude by repeating to you the assurance of my | esteem and special consideration. PRINCE SATRIANO. To (he Consul General of the United States of America, | | publ a Palermo. ConsvLats oF Tu UsirEp Sratas, 1 PaerMo, February 28, 1854. | Exceiuency—I have the honor to acknowledge the re- ecipt of his Exeellency’s note of the 21st inst., enclosing ¢ a copy of a report from the Intendente of the Province of | Girgenti, numbered 87. His Excellency is pleased to call my attention to a paper issued on the 1ith of this month at the Royal Ministry, and in which | am informed that severe researches had Leen ordered to discover the perpetrators of the outrage recently committed on the American arms at Girgenti, but all of which had proved entirely fruitless. T must frankly confess that jppears to me somewhat novel and singular that the Sicilian Police Department, 90 1 egebrated for its acuteness and ability, should have in this instance failed in its researches; and the in- teiligence contained in his Excellency’s note, that the cutrage had been committed with a view of committing personal insult, cannot but surprise me, since all the attempts to throw light upon the subject have been un- essful. I aim also of the opinion that the arms of a nation cannot be employed as an idle instrument with which to gratify personal malice. It is net my intention, however, to review further and at length the various points in connection with the na- ture of the insult, especially as the report transmitted by the Intendente bears upon its face various contradic- tions which might lead to a painful and prolonged corres- pondence. It ixsuflicient for the American people and their government to know that his Excellency has acted ina friendly and energetic manner in this affair; and the orders issued to the authorities of Girgenti consti- | tute an ample and beautiful proof of the high estimation | in which ius Majesty’s government holds the friendly connections now existing between the kingdom of the — Two Sicilies and the nation of the United States, and we tens that these happy and harmonious relations may | continue uninterrupted. Tehell not fail in communicating, in due time, to my | government the measures so promptly alopted’ by his Excellency the Prince Satriano, not only to repair the | injury sustained, bu! also to guard against a future repe- | ' tition of a similar occurrence. Thave the honor to assure his Excellency of my dis- | tinguished and special consideration, JULIUS 'C. KRETSCHMAR.

Bungling and tardiness aro the characteria- , tics of the English war policy.

Lord Aberdeen said that a Foreign Office clerk had been guilty of a breach of trast in sending such documents to the Zimes. This clerk de- nied the charge, and Lord Aberdeen apologised for the mistake. ‘The conduct of the British Ministers is timid and yacillating—scarcely one is believed to be heartily for war. ‘They dislike Russia conquering Turkey; but they are fearful the war willrouse the ghosts of Han: gary, Ifaly, and Poland, ‘The treachery of the British government in suffering the destruction of Poland and Hungery, is now beginning to It Fngland.

It washe, more than any man in tho Eritish nation, who could have prevented the destruction of Hungary, and he neglected to do so. There ia no doubt that Palmer- ston is illiberal and an absolutist at heart.

There is a subterraneous | heat ey i encing itself of every occasion, however seom- | ement in the ificant, Which weeds but | French, and it is anticipated that t political atmosphere to burst forth to the surface in fire and flame. At the chapel of the English embassy, yesterday, the usual prayer was read which is ordinarily appropriated | Ly the English liturgy to a time of war. Even this cir- cumstance was seized upon with avidity. The chapel was crowded at an carly hour, and before the commence- ment of service hundreds of French were collected out- side making excited comments on the new state of things; and when it was understood that by order of the embassy almost immediately a day of humiliation was to be set apart, and a collection made for the widows and orphans of those who might soon be expected to full in battle, you might almost have imagined tho cir- cumstance had actually occurred, so strong were the emotions exhibited. The past, Frenchmen say, is past with respect to Eng land; and the England of the present day, with its mil lion of electors, its domi: Catholic emancipation, little resembles the England of rotton boroughs, where the lords made the people believe that the French had no more morality than dogs, and lived on frog soup. The untoward occurrence at Cuba coanected with the Black Warrior has had its share also in disturbing the comparatively quiet bubbling of the political cauldron. ‘The strongest sympathies are everywhere oxpresse| for the rights of America, and the’ idea of any quorrel springing up between her and France, no matter what the allianee, is looked upon as a thing too terrible to think of. The predominant feeling is a devout hope that the Spaniards may be soundly brought to book. ‘The passage cf the Danube by the Russians near Ibraila and Galatz has caused an alarm lest they shoul arrive at Constantinople before the arrival of the Anglo-French It appears to be the general opinion that Omer has been deceived: that after having simulated sharp attacks on Kalofat, and drawn to that place the greater part of the Turkish forces, the Russians succee!- din causing the Lower Danube to be left undefended, and profited thereby. They have still, however, to force the passage of the Balkans, of which Varna and Schumala form the double key, It is clearly evident that there is afoot alike formidable from itsmambers and ‘ance. 1 the Czar, it is asked, who has been so long pre- paring fer this attack on the rights of nations and on civilisation, stop in his course? If victorious, will he follow up his plans of conquest? Has he not said that he Will sacrifice to this undertaking “his very Inst man and his last musket ?? “We have tho greatest faith,” says the Sie-Ie, “in the courage and skill of our navy and army. France will show on the Eastern land her old warlike superiority; but in thse terrible games of hazard and of strength tie chance are sometimes various ; it is against the possi- t probable, case of a reverse that the cabinets nd London must obtain guarantees.”” What is less clearly explained is the conduct which Austria and Prussia is now to follow. In regard to the former Power, it is quite impossible to overstate the intense anxicty that is felt. Everything is done to conciliate, to flatter, and to coax her. The Journal de Francfort has in it a passage which has ant middle classes, and its | been eagerly seized upon, known as it is to be genorally | on the side of Russia. Among other remarks justificatory of the Czar, in relation to the ‘secret correspondence,” where he iy described as saying, ‘Oh, you inust under- stand that when speak of Russia I speak of Austria. What is suitable to one is suitable to the other. Our in- terests, as vegagds Turkey, are identical.”? This journal observes ‘if 4s evident that the august monarch only said that to turn the attention of the British envoy from Austria ; for there are, assuredly, no interests more di- yergent than those of Austria and Russia with regard to Turley; and these interests are not merely divergent— they are #0 contrary, that if Russia determine to pursue hers with ai! her energy, Austria will find herself obliged to intervene, as she would have done in 1829, if the King of France, Chasles X., had not declared for Russia.”” ‘There is evidently some significant preparation going on at the Austrian frontier. An order has been given to forth agnovable headquarters at Buda. Steamers, full of troops and cannon, are daily moving down the Danube, as though a military emigration were taking place. The army numbers, it is said, already 150,000 men. As for Pi that her hing is convalescent. Had it pleased Providence to Lave removed him his loss might have been the gain of many a betier man.

It is somewhat strange that such a largo por- tion of the gales should beon time. This we have no- ticed for sometime past, and it is by mo means a favor- ablefeature. Almost the entire business of the stock | exchange is on credit, and on account principally of very a great banquet awaits him, which port has been exhibit: | ing a zeal rather remarkable, for while the vs the Anglo-French army were embarkit Powers—namely, the Dutch, the Swede, and the Dane— hoisted their flags. ‘At the Grand Opera a most splendid revival of the great chef d’euvre of ig pak pple Vestate’’—has taken place, in which Mdlle. Cruvelli plays tho ehief role. Ita ‘success has been so remarkable, and there are so many points of interest worthy of comment, that I must re- serve any future observations for my next. The Porte St. Martin, too, has made a great hitin a melodrama entitled «La Vie d’une Comedienne.”’ Bat you will not be surprised to hear that Mrs. Scher- merborn’s bal costume ala rigueur bas ateracted great attention in Paris. The account of it has been translated into the Pairie, the Presee, andthe Pays, and the com- ments made upon the various toilettes particularixed by the Heraup have been of a nature which should be flat- tering to the Ame n taste and judgment. ladies of the United States, independent of their beauty, which is thought to be of a more strictly feminine cha- racter than that of England, thought quite to bear e palm of taste—that is, among foreigners—for ‘ng French person will admit of superiority on what he believes national ground. The Empress of the French has decided that a public competition should take place between French. manufac- rd of | , even the neutral | Bat the | turers, forthe best trimming of a dress in point d’Angle- | terre, and the best black Jace called point de Chantilly. By the Ist of Jnne, 1854, the patterns are to be sent to the Duchess of Bassano, and a jury will decide, for the exhibition of 1855, which speciinen is most remarkable for novelty, richness and clegance. Another ‘steeple chase took place at La Mareho, Ville | | It is probable that the free banks going into operation in d’Avray, yesterday, (Sunday) brilliant that has ever occur The gathering of car- riages was extraordinarily great, and the genera. style of them almost worthy of Hyde Park. It was cileulated that more than thirty thousand persons were prisent. The Emperor and Fmpress occupied, with Price Mu- rat, the imperial stand, and were attended by Marshal St.Arnaud, Marshal Vaillant, and other personages of dia- tinction. The ether stands were crowded to inconve- nience—one of them was chiefly occumed by ladies in most elegant toilettes—the other by members of the Jockey Club, and other aristocratic patrons and suppor- ters of the turf. Such was the curiosity to observe the Bimpress, that not only on the ground but on her way ¢ a 0 ¢ Champs Llysées, down to the gardens of thé Tuileries, wore eiowded to excess to catch a peep at her. Her toilette consisted of a robe of pale lilac silk with several floundes, and a bonnet of white and lilac tulle. It was not by any means worn s0 far back on the lead as seems to be the more general mode. It is complained that for les obze demands are unvsuslly slack. But I commenced this letter by speaking of a gencral fever-heat among all classes. At this moment the point to which it directs itself is the expected arrival of the Foglith cavalry. It is quite impossible to give yon any idea of the immense excitement the promise of such & rovelty produces. Can there be a greater proof of the fect that it is the occasion rather than the spectacls itself which constitutes the object of interest, than the circumstance of the entry of some two thousand cavalry £0 exciting a people aceustomed periodically to vast and gorgeous displays of military such as no other netioa ona exhibit. It seems that the be te will arrive in detachmonts and assemble in the suburbs till all are collected; that then they will make their entry under the are of St. Denis, snd march up the Boulevards in all the pride, and pomp, and circumstance of glorious war, playing ““Partant pour la Syrie”’ The French are already beapeaking wins dows throughout the Boulevards, the houses of whieh will be filled up to their very top.” ‘Tho French tréops will line this magnificient strect of palaces and salute their ancient foemen, whose feet have not trol the stones of Paris since the battle of Waterloo, and who have never joined the French to follow to the fight the days of the Crusaders, as the strains of “/artant pour la Syrie’’ die off, the national English air of “God Save the Queen" will be caught up and poured fourth by the he vias of France, in the fulness and chiyairy of their hearts, will wake the echoes of their glorious city from one end to the other, , and perhaps che mos! ts de Ivae the American Superior Court—Part Second.

When anew bank starts in any part of New England and has moral courage enough to have nothing to do with the Suffolk Bank, it is at once announced that the notes of the now bank are not received at the Suifolk, and straightway they are not eur- rent. Now we have yet to understand what the Suffolk Bank has to do with the solvency of any bank, and what virtue there is in the Suffolk Bank redeemiag the cireulat ing notes. The Bank of Castleton, Vermont, is the !ast one repudiated, but as its bills are secured by State stocks, it makes little or no difference to the billholders whether the Suffolk Bank takes them or not. We consider the Bank of Castleton notes safer than one-half of ths Vills of banks which are still in good credit at the Suffolk. It is the casieg$ thing in the world to keep in favor with that bank. A deposit of two or three thou- sand dollars is suflicient to cover up the insolvency of any country bani, and the managers of most of the banking institutions of Now England are shrewd enough toknow that it is the cheapest way to secure goot credit. Vermont and Connecticut will not submit to the extor- tions of the Suffolk Bank, but will depend upon the abso- Inte security of their issues for obtaining all the circula- tion they desire. The notes of the Bank of Castleton, Vermont, and of any other free bank in New England, will be redeemed in Wall strect at the usual discount, whether the Suffolk Bank takes them or not. ‘The following card has been issucd by Mr. Barnum in regard to the reports affecting the credit and standing of the Pequonnock Bank :— .

The supply is reduced, but is still rather oppressive, especially as there is a lack of expected orders from coun- try dealers, who usually buy a good deal about this time of the%year, when internal navigation is about being generally resumed. This exercises a depressive influence upon the market, which continues rather dull and heavy for most descriptions of continental and British fabrics. | Holders, however, of desirable articles do not show any inclination to abate their claims, as they expect to be able to sell what goods they have on hand at full prices, ere this season’s close. There is very good inquiry for Linens, and for many productions in which Russian raw | materials are used, at rising rates, as such cannot be laid down here at the prices now current in this market. In most other cases the tendency of the trade is favorable to buyers, yet these appear slow in taking advantage of this inclination. 3 Tho following act relative to the coasting trade of Great Britain, became a law on the 25th of March, 1854:— Whereas, by the 152d section of the Customs Consolida- tion act, 1853, it is enacted that no goods or passengers shall be carried coastwise from one part of the United Kingdom to another, except in British ships. And whereas, by the 1$1s1 section of the same act it is enact- ed that no goods or passengem shall be imported into the United Kingdom from the Channel Islands, or exportod from the United Kingdom to the said isla from one of the said islands to another, or from one part of any of the said islands to»another part thereof except in British ships. And whereas, it is expedient to remove the restrictions contained in the said recited enactments: Be it enacted by the Queen’s most excellent Majesty, by and with the advice and consent of the Lords spiritual and temporal, and Commons, in this present parliament assembled, and by the authority of the same as follows: 1. The cnactment herein before recitod, that is to's: the 152d and 191st sections of the said Customs Consolit tion act, 1853, shall be repealed from the rn of this act: Provided, that it shall be lawful for her Majesty to excrcise, in respect of foreign ships employed in the | coasting’ trade as aforesaid, and of goods carried coast- wise in such ships, such or the like powers as are con. ferred on her Majesty by the 324th, 825th, and 326th sec- tions of the said Customs Consolidation act, 1853, in re- spect of foreign ships employed in the oversea trade, and of goods exported or imported in such ships. 2. Every foreign ship which, after the passing of thi act, is employed in carrying goods or passengers coast- wise from one part of tle United Kingdom to another, or from the islands of Guernsey, Jersey, Alderney, Sark or Man, to the United Kingdom, or from the United King- dom to any of the said islands, or from a the sail islonds to any other of them, or from any part of any on+ of the said islands to any other part of the same, shail bo subject, as to stores Lor the use of the crew, and in all other respects to the sani¢ laws, rules and regulation ‘owhich British ships when so employed are now sul © Jeet. 8. No foreign ship which, after the passing of this @et, is employed in the coasting trade as aforessid, nor any goods carried in any ship shall, during the time sach ship is so employed, be subject to any higher or other rate of dock, pier, harbor-light, pilotage, tonnage, or other dues ever, or 1o any other rule as to the employment of pilot» or any other rules or restrictions whateoever, than British hips employed in like manner, or goods carried ia such ships, any law, charter, special privilege, or grant to the contrary notwithstanding; nor shall any body corporate or person having or claiming any right or title to any such higher or other rates, dues, duties, tolls, or other charges, as eforesaid, be entitled to any compensation in respect thereof under any law or statute relating thereto, or otherwise howsoever. 4. And whereas it is expedient to provide for the safe- ty of passenger steamers: Be it enacted, that every for- eign steam vessel carrying passengers from one place to another un the coasts of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland and the Channel, islands, shall be subject to the provisions of the steam navigation act of 1s61.
