Ta this direction the iret blow will probably be struck. The only olber nvatter of importance which has taken place in Ttaly withm the last fow days is the neglect of » britieb poet Caplain to galute the flag of the revolutionary government of Tuscany when he repaired to Leg bora for the protection of Britth subjects. A parcy in this country will, no doubt, be disposed to make a great grievance of this «philo-Austrian’” conduct, more partisularly as it was approved, if not directed, by the government, For our own part, we believe the course taken by Lord Ma'mesbury to be consistent with the law of nations, and, in fact, the ouly oper one to a government with just re gard to ite own dignity and the rights of its neighbors. The government of Queen Victoria bas diplomatic rela- tions with the Grand Ducal government, aad a Miuister 1s sctually accredited to the Court of Florence. That gover: ment has been overthrown by a military revolution, instigat- el beyond a doubt ly foreign agency; the sovereign and nis family have been obliged to quit the conntry, and an anomalous double government has been estabiished, the civil adminietration being conducted by certain parties ia Florence, while the King of Sardinia—a belligorest in tue present wareetias taken on himself the military command of the duchy, acd incorporated its arn with hig own. In sush a case we would ask— Where is the government with which we hold relations? Is it in Vienna, whither the Grand Dake has retired, or is it in Victor Emmanuel’s camp, or is it in Florence? This ig n question Which the Brith government might well ask: and they were oourcquently right in directing the “Conqueror” to abstain from any acknowledgement of the revolution. The Grand Duke 1s stall Grand Duice; he has not been depored, he has bdtcaed, he is still sovercign. The government established Tuscany does not pretend to be an independent government; it acknowledges that the present tate of things is only an wilerregnum, and neither the French Emperor, nor the Xing of Sardinia, nor the new Tuscan authoritver, have as yet ventured (to say that the reign cf the legitimate ruler has term- nated. Tt was copsequenily the bounden duty of our government to do rothing which could bo | bereattor coastrued into @ recognition of such a fact. When the presence of a British ship of war was thovght necceeary the Conquorer was despatched to pro- lect or receive on board British subjects, without in any way interfering in Tuscan affairs, salute the flag of ap administration confcseedly temporary, formed against the will of the Sovereign to whom our Minister ia | accredited, and for the purpose of makivg war on a Stato with which we are at peace, would be an overt act which might embarrass our future action. But to refrain from ealuting thegnew fleg merely means that our government keops itseif entirely aloof from the political diesensions of Italy, and waits ontil either the Grand Duke is restored, or the sovercign authority alienated from him by his abdication or the stipulation of treaties. The prece- dents of the last two French Revointions do not ap- ply in this case. In 1830 Charis X. appointed the Duke of Orleans Lieutenant of the kingdom, and | then abdicated, and the existing authorities—the nation heing in profound peace called the Duke to the vacant throne. This new sovereign formally notified his acces- sion to the British government, and be was recognised by Lord Aberdeen withovt an hour's delay. So in 1848 Louis | Philippe abdicated, and after a period of anarchy a ro. | public was catabliahed, which remained unquestioned in y dotermined to destroy for them; 80, on the 34 ith they made domonstrations as If to cross the , both there and opposite Frassinetto, and succeeded ping the bri¢ge. On the 4th also General Beaedek. ‘quemy’s attention being drawa to the above nam: |, succeeded in crossing the Po at Cornale, 40,000 men, on a bridge constructed by the Ka- @ corps which in Austria has reached a wonder. eficiency.

Lord Normanby was then gecrodited to the new rulers In the regular way. But thd@reaent is a very dif. ferent case. The Britieh government bas received no in tmat’on that the Grand Duke has ceased to reign, or that | the duchy has been incorporated with Piedmont. or that a kingdom of Italy bas come into existence. Until com- petent Tuscan authorities notify these facts to the court of ‘St, James they cannot expect it to recognise avy vovern- ment but that with which it has hitherto had relations. it was not till the 8th of was destroyed.

Jt may, for anght we know, serve to mark some great move which the utter poverty of the ie Feat ef war prevents us from oven gueseing at; but, fom what we do know, we can only draw the cobclusion that they are retracing their stepa aud retiring within their limits, It is true we behold their gradual disappearance, through @ very cbscare medium, as we observe en eciipee of the sup ip a cloudy sky and through ne glasses; aI] that we can gucss is, that there is an eclipee. Since the time when Melas was bewildered and para- lyzed by the sudden appeararce of French legions - ing Cown simultaneously from Mount Cénis, the Great aud Little St. Bernard, the Simpfon and St. Gothard, to- werds the plsin of Marengo, nover has such a series of mistakes been apparently committed. Having once determined on peremptoriiy summoning the Piedmontese to disarm, it was a mistake to give them three days to do what every one kuew they would refuse. Three hours was sufficient. They should have instantly entered Picd- mort, destroyed the means of communication betweea the Piedmontere and their allies, crushed the Predmontese army before a single French battalion had come up, and then falien back, as they are now apparently falling back. They might then have {nformed the governments of Ea- rope that, having golved for themeelves the great point of difference with Piedmont—namely, the disarmament, and repaid ihemeelvyes by the contributions they bad levied for the expense of the operation, they werg ready to re- sume negotiations in Congrees for a sottlement of the famous four points in Jitigation, I assure yon tbat the Austrians would have less odiun for this act of terrible, but, for them, necessary rigor, than they bave by their present conduct. It would cortaini: have excited a feeling different from that now inspired by their sloveniy tactics and their unprofitable rapacity. The distension raid to exist between the Emperor Franc | Joseph and M.

Last evening a disturbance occurred at the St. Nicholas Hotel, which would no doubt have"terminated in @ san guivary manzer but for the intervention of the police. It appesrs that Col. Titus, formerly of Nicaragua, ar- rived in this city on Saturday last, and put up at the above hotel. On learning this Col. Anderson, formerly connevicd with Gen.,Walker, and who had a qaarrel with Titus in Nicaragua, repaired last evening to the hotel, ac companied by a few friends, and it is asserted attempted to t Tins into a fight, but failed to do go, and left the place at about baif-paet pine o’cinci. Csptain Tarcbull, of the Eighth ward, was apprised of the trouble and repaired to the spot, accompanied by Ser- t Mount.

When atthe mouth of the Schuylkill, the water below appeared something like a email etream, such was the height of the balloon. After baving crossed the Delaware, and when geyeral miles beyond, the ceronaut commenced to descend, and dropped bis anchor for that purpose.
