We fear this delay bodes no good. We thall simply point out the conse- quences of any furtber delay. We are now unavimous, and we trust to remain so. But the longer we wait the greater (he danger for this unity. We are still young aud inexperienced in this sweet con- cord, while we are old and experienced in disunion and discord. Our enemies are well acquainted with all the ‘sources of our disunion, and they will lose no pains to stir them up. They will do their best in this respect. Butlet us turn to other considerations, The first conse- quence of the war in Italy, if it continues without Germany deciding it by marching on Paris, is, that France will call for more troops to cross the Alps. France would then be still more deprived of troops, and more open to aituck But this gain wiil be fully counterbalanced by the result of increased preparations in Fraace and Russia, by the expicsion of revolutions which will have had time to mature along the line of the Danube end our Eastern frontier. And we must not forget chat if France raws fresh troops tolisly, Austria will also want] them— go many the less for our ‘attacking columns. the more bloody and obstinate the struggle in Italy becomes, ina similar ratio theso resulte. Ina war with Frauco we should-not be so well cff as we are at this present mo- ment. But bow, then, if, contrary to expectation, tho Italian war should eoon'be decided’ by two or three great battles, want of money on esther side, or by unforeseen cireum- stances? Sopporo Napoleon remaica the victor, and he would be thia if austria conceded to him the smallest strip of land—French pride and revolutionary triumph would rise like a ewollen river, and war on the Rhine would soon follow. Austria would then be hard presved, and would have to exert her remaining etrengtn on the Danube and eastward. The suj position that she would leave the paim of victory to ber toe in Itnly, unless reduced to a last ex- tremity, which would humiliate her morally more thaa materially, can only be entertaited by those who believe in Austria’s weakness and perfidy. And should they have ghtly, truly they have drawn the worst lot for Germany. If, on the other hand, the Austrians should be victorious over their enemies in Ilaly, and drive them from the val- of the Po acrostgthe Alps, which is not impossible, what then? Our peace mongers and vaciilators imagine they wili then be spared the sacrifices and the cares of war, ag the defeat in Italy would imply the fall of Napoleon. It might be possible that @ rising would destroy the power of the vanquished Napoleon; but it is jast ag pos- sible that the French would not be ready for the work— let us only glance at the last ten years; and it is algo pos- sible that their patriotic feelings and reason might drown theft hatred of the despot, and urge them to redeem their logses in Italy on the banks of the Rhine. Iu either case, let us imagine how, victorious, bat by the hesitation of Germany much-offended, Austria would act. Truly, now- ever the tie might be cast, Germany would not be bet- tered, and Goths plans would dry up as quickly as rain- dropé on the root with the sun’s rays upon them. If we wish to give Frencbmen s wholesome warning— to bring into play their hatred of Napoleonic despatiem, we must do it now; we must at once preparo for battle, There is no doubt of it, their national pride will at first display itel! in cries of opposition, but that opposition will soon fall to the ground before the mighty, unavoida- ble, ever-nearer-approaching danger. We shall then put e test how much is true of those fables told of the irresistible power of the anger of the French people, be- fore which the first coalition is said to have retreated, What are we, then, waiting for? We caa never si betler than we do now opposed to France! Every week's delay can only damage our position, our views, our right to Wherefore, then, do we wait? Whether Na poleon is viconious or falls tn the Italian war, shall we not seize upon the finest opportunity, which will never present itielf again, to reconquer what France despoiled Germany of sn the mot shameful manner? Let us take a free, grenthearted decision—we should drive back every enemy from the German frontier. Let us go joyously to battle, andthe victory will be ours ; and ‘when peace is restored we will settle our iaternal affairs, and Germany will asrume once more that position as a Power which it once possessed, and which the future now places within ite grasp. OPINION OF THE LONDON TIMES. [From the London Times, June 3.] If we may trust the Allgemeine Zeatung, which does not often speak without some authority, and which gounds a sonorous blast in cur columns this day, ail Germany, from Cologne to Swabia, from the Baltic to the Kuxine, is pos- seesed of one unanimous, uproarious enthusissm for the conquest of Aigatia and Lorraine and for tae occupation of Paris! Seber, steady going old Germany is, we are told, dreaming quite seriously of some tremendous scheme of invasion of which Fraoce ts to b2 the victim, and we English are to be part agents in the work,’ but by no means participators in the gain. Tho pesti- lentmalady which Louis Napoleon has seut raging through Borope, and against ‘which England only bas as yet established a moral quarantine, is spread- ing through all Germany, The morbid desire for con- quest and plunder, which in the ménd of a Frenchman means the annexation of Italy, in the mind of # Sardinian means the annexation of Lombardy, and in the minds of the Emperors of France and Russia means some unknovin and perhaps undefined d eastward and westwarl, means in the magnificent imoyination of the German wothing less than the immediate sack of Paris and the ultimate pa tition of the French Empire. Why should they not accomplish this little enterprise? “Germany is ready and the enemy is not.” Germany has strong frontier fortresves;\Germany has 500,000 men ready, in two armies, to invade France and march upon Paris.’ France bus not more than two thirds of this num- ber to meet them, and these have to keep down revolu tion as well as to oppoze the invaders. It is quite clear, as every German student will say, or write, or sing, that any French army that could be brought against these inva- ders would undoubtedly be beaten. ‘In a very short time the decisive action would take place under the walls of Paris.” Of course, the French would again be beaten, and then all Fatherland would swarm into Paris— for “it has not @ suflicient garrieon to defend Part’—and thus those agile and dash- who thought @ march upon the uniortified little town of Turin too far a stretch for their temerity, will stand to arms in the capital Chariomagne and repartition Europe, and piace all things upon a truly conservative basis. Italy to Austria, Alsatia and Lorraine to Prussia and Bavaria—France shriaking with\a norseif humbled and dismayed—Sardinia scourged to death—Ras- sia terrified into inaction—Englaud lured by the pleasant aspect of auch a great Teutonic su :0ces to guard ine seas while these fine things are being done—ail the par’a in this natural and most probabie drama are given out, aad no thing is wanting but that the curtain should rive. «Want are wo waiting for” What, indeed? England, it is a- mitted, shows a certain feebleness, a littie irresolution which would be at once removed by a great fact—the capture of Paris; but once finish with Paris, and then Eog- land will rally to Lord Malmesbury and to Austria, and there will be no more fear of a Palmerston ministry. Such is the common conversation of Germany, as faith. fully reflected in the article we have thought w: of extract.

The ope will work harder than ever to ia- tlaence the Germanic Diet and to fan tae excitemoat of ‘the minor States, while the other will revolutionize Italy as far as the Straits of Messina, and perhaps seek lo engage the ‘Spanish government in the contest. < AS far as we can judge, the questioa whether this war shali become general resis at present principally with tao Vrivee Regent of Prussia and his advisers. To the Court of Berlin has deen confided, at its own request, the iaitia- tive ta all measures for securing the safety and hooor of Germany. The decision of the Regent will probably be respected, and, in spite of the agiiation which prevails througbout the country, no rash act will involve the Con federation in a war with France. We say toat this will probably be the ultimate result, but certaialy at present the war spirit bas risen to such & height that no one can tell into what dangers the enthusiasm of the Bavari and Hanoverian Courts, aud of the people everywhere, may vrge the country, ta spite of all the caution of Berlin. The article in the Augsburg Gazette, which we printed yesterday, will feem extravagant to Koglishmen, but it is only a eample of the daily outpouringe of the German press, bat Louis Napoleoo meditates a renewal of his uncie’s policy, that the campaign in Italy is to be auc- ceeded by a campaign on the Raine, and that Germany, now unprecedentedly united and eachusiastic, ought to bripg things to a crisis at once aud anticipate the threat. ened usurpation, is the constant argument of young and old shoul the Fatheriand; and the Augsburg Gazelle only what may be heard in every public place. We may take, indeed, this article as expressing pretty fairly what the average German tbicks about his own country aod Frauce and the state of Europe; and the composi- tion shows the strength and the weakness of the people to whom it is addreesed. ‘Tae duty . of Germasy,” prociaims tbe writer, ‘‘is to go to war itn France at once.

The abiance between France and Ruseia bas roused them sii further, though they fully count on the un- ‘willingness of the Czar to carry things to extremities with the dynasties and people of Germany proper.

This difficulty for the Franco Sardinian army, advanc- ing towards Mantau, is yet greatly increaged by the so bigbly manifested desire of the Emperor not to give any pretext to the mistrust of the southern States of the Ger- man Confederation by even the slightest violation of its territory. Avstria, however, taking advantage of the past, has, since the peace, taken the greatest care to improve the existing roads, to buikt new ones, and to bind them to- gether 1m the prevision of astruggie in Italy, An Aus trian division, comirg from Bobemia, has even passed tbrough Bavaria, a fact which, if it is not forbidden by ‘he constitution, is at least against the usages of the Con- feceration. This divieion bas passed in tho Forarlberg, a province near Tyrol, where Emperer Francis Joseph con- centrates a corps d’armée, pretending that it is a federal contingent for the cefence of the south of Germany against an attack of the French; but its true destination is rather to deecend from the Tyrol on the rear of the Franco-Sar- dinian army when that force shal! have arrived at the fa- mous strategical square of Mantua, If, therefore, Gari- aldi suczeeds in revolutionizing the whole mountainous country, very favorable to a war of guerillas, and placed at the southern declivity of the Alps, and if.he is sup Forted by regular troops, as he probably will be, the communications of the Austrians in Lombardy with their trcops in the Tyrol wili be much endangered.

(Paris (June 2) correspondence of London Star.) The ead belief jn the defeat of Garibaidi is confirmed, ali bough some litile hope still remains tbat the misfortune The organization of his little band was so defective tha: from the very first it was fore- seen that nothing short of a miracie could have rendered it capable of maintaining the field against the first serious attack made upon it by the Austrians. ‘The orgapizing power—the friend and comrade—the cool Englieh bead of Col. Forbes, his old ally, was eadly mieeing from the very first. Col.

And those instincts powerfully pierce through the errors to which the agitators goad them. It would perhaps have been been better if, Jostead of rallying rouad the ebsglute etunonrds of Powers which will betray their hopes, the volunteers had silently organized the inkurrection in their own Countries and prociaimed it in the name of the Italian people, by taking ite initiative; butthe spirit which moved them Je holy and eublims; the proof they give of devotion to the common country 1s not to be denied, and on this nu- cleus of the future national army, spontaneously formed, centre the greatest hopes or laly: Cho aoceptance of 8 royal dictatorship is an error which may indeed result in disappointment, and violates the dignity of a people rising for its own emancipation; that dictatorahip in a country and with a Parliament devoted to monarchy, with the precedents of Rome and Venice, where the harmony of the popular agsemblies with the leaders of the defense was tho source of power, with the record of the long and Wremendous war sustained by England against, the drat Empire, without the least violation of civil Iiberties, is evidently nothing but a concession to the oxigenoles of the allied despots and the first symptom of a design which in- tends to substitute the question of territory for the question of liberty: but the people which enthusiastically accopts the dictatorship, thinks it accomplishes an act of supreme sacrifice for the benefit of the common fatherland: and, deluded by the notion of the succers of the war depend ing upon fuch a concentration of power, wants to show by its applause its frm deterraination to ‘combat and to vanquish at auy price whatever, Tho unconditional eur- ‘administration, tive to the formation of a national revolt ernment; but even this immense error © to’ tho waat of national unity, the etupid chat thi pean 6 as 40 our dissensions, the Italian common law.

Hence their general armamenta; hence the warlike fer- mentation throughout the Germaa Confederation; hence the elements already prepared of a coulitiag between Eag- land, Germany and Prussia—a coalition Inevitable des- pite the declaration to the contrary of tho governments.

If the war be prolonged 89 a to assume, consequent upon Ger- man intervention, European proportions, the insurrection of the Turkish provinces, prepared long time since, and that of Hungary, would enable the alliance to assume pal- pable forms, “To case things come to that point, it is intended to inthe territorial rearrangement every idea of popular right and liberty. Rngsian prin would govern the States established on t! ruins of tho Tarkish Empire and Austria; princes of the Bonaparté dynasty the new States of Italz, ‘and perhaps others into the bargain, according to event! alities.

With » mute press, every comment upon the operations prevented, the people kept in darkness a8 to everything, the fleld ig cleared for the tactics of the patrons. Aud the ular mind, fas- cipated by the phantom of an independence which, finally, would turn out but a change of depentense, be- comes disused to liberty, the true source of all inde pendence. “3uch are the designs of the allied despots.

I say of Count Cavour, because I incline think Victor Emanuel a stranger to the bargaine of Plombieres ond Stuttgardt, “If Count Cayour bad been a real friend of italy be would have relied on the immense pres- tige derived from the possession of an important material force and from the general tendencies pre- vailing in Italy, in order to Prepare Ttalian move- ments, to be immediately secosded by Piedmont. Toa etruggle initiated by Italian forces alone, Europe would have given spplauge and favor. Aud Europe, which to day menaces Napoleon when he descends into Italy at her call and with the semblances of a liberator, would »* never have suffered him to come without provocation, in ‘his own name, to the rescue of Austria. It would have been a holy and sublime on! ‘ise, and Cavour could have carried it through. But it would have been noces- tary to fraternize, in the name of liberty and right, with ‘the Italian revolution, Such acourse did not suit the Minister of the Sardinian monarchy. Aversion to the people and to liberty epui him to seek the alliance of Mace mr of # tyranny which, by Cint of old traditions of conquest, all nations abomi- nate. This conception has changed the very nature of the Italian cause. If it comes out victorious with he ally accepted as its patron, the national unity is lost— taly 18 made the field of a rew division under the French protectorate, If it succumbs with the man of December, taly will have to pay damages and tq undergo reactions without end; and Europe, instead of complaining of us, will say, ‘Serves you Tight.” (Voi non avele se non quello che meritate.) “AN calculations, all human tactics, are swayed by moral laws, which no people can dare vio- late with impunity. Every guilt drags inovitably behind itself its expiration. France—and thus we told her at the time—cxpiates the expedition to Rome. May God exempt Italy from the severe expiation deserved by the Sardinian monarchy for having coupled a cause sanctified by half century of sacrifice, of martyrdom, and virtuous agpira- tions, with the banner of egotiem and tyranny! “Nevertheless, the war is a fact—a powerful fact— which cieates new duties, and essentially modifies our own proceedivgs. Between the conception of Cavour and the menace of a coalition, between Louis Napoleon and Austria, equally fatal, there stands Italy—the more serioas the dangers of the tituation are, the more the efforts of all rust concentrate themselves to save the common from the perils it incu: If the war was car- ctween governments, we might remain specta- tors, watching the moment when the combatants having weakened cach other, the national element could come forward. But tbat element hag already exploied. De- luded or not, tho country trembles in a feverish state of activity, and’ believes it is able to accomplish ita purpose by making use of the war of the Emperor and the King. The Toscan movement, a spontaneous movement of Italian scloiers and citizens, the universal agitation, and the rush of voluntecr corps, break through the circle of the officiat intrigues, and they are beatings of the national heart. It is necessnry to follow them on the flold, it is nevessary to emarge, to italianige (i/atianizzare) the war. The repub- licans will know how to accomplish this duty. “Italy, if she will, may save herself from the perils we have set forth. Sho may win from the actual crisis her national unity. “Te ia necessary tbat Austria should succumb.

All the accounts from the frontier of Lombardy continue to confirm the news of tho extension of the insurrection in the country near the three Iakes—the Lago Maggiore, « Como and Lugano, and in the greater part of the Valtel- Tine, An Austrian Lieutenant of Gendarmorie and four gendarmes were obliged to seek refuge at Castasegna, a village of the valley of Brogell, in the canton of the Gri- fons. They solicited the local authorities to atiow them to cross into the Tyrol; these authorities applied for instruc- tiovs to the Cantonal govornment at Coir, and the govorn. ment, in its turn, telegraphed to the federat Executive to ask what wasto be done. No answer has yot been re- celved, and meantime the men who cross tho frontier, to whichever eide they may bolong, are to be disarmed, and kept at Coire until orders are received. Owing to what is in the Valtelline, joined to the assembling of Aus- 4 German troops in the Vorarlberg, the federal Executive has caused the frontier of Engadine to be occu- pied, The Twenty. fifth brigade has accordingly been called out, and a battalion of Argau, one of the Grisons, and two companies of tho riflemen of Berne and the Gri: sons, are already on the march in that direction he wants an oppor- circie about three fivgers w of different colors; but crown—a ring which tradition de bas ‘out of one of the nails which were used iu the cross on which Christ was crucified. * This famous crown was, in tho year 774, placed upon the hoad of Garlo-Magno (Charles the Great) by Popo Adrian it was removed to Rome, to crowa Fro- led the brome Charles the Fin, ia 1806, Na poleoa the Placed it on his own,head, repeating the lamation attributed to another ecen- turies belore—“God has given itto me—woe be him that touches it.’ This historical and religious treasure was, 22d of April last, enclosed within tho ft @ thick gilt copper cross, which was exhibited on certain days in the Cathedral of Monzs, after a special religious ceremony.

They wilt carry with them some of their own atmosphere of opinion ‘ond sentiment, and illustrate by their bearing the freedom of —— which is the only medium of politica! reform. ‘They will thus co more than is within the power of a minister plenipotentiary, even if backed by war steam- ers; but the presence of # minister is wanted to lead the way.

Si minwaters poesess the amount of confidence which their supporters eay they do, it will give them strength and ad- vantage in conducting public affairs to have the fact clear- 1y demonstrated without delay, If, on the other hand, ey are in a minority as well in the House as with the great body of the public, it is, considered only fair and just that they should be relieved of a responsibility which is certainly too great for a government not fortified b: the pport of Parliament. The meeting of Monday wil be called upon to consider this question.

English Opinion of the American Board of Foreign Missions, [From the Clerkenwell News, June 2.) What is the action as regards slavery of this American Borrd of Commissioners, in “regular standing” and inti- mate union with nearly the whole of the American church- es? By its Christian fellowship it sanctions the acts of the worst slaveholders in the United States. Among its mem- bers, for example, aro the Old Schoo! Presbyterians, who deny to their slaves that which God hath appointed for all men—marriage. One of its own members, Dr. Breck- enridge, bears the ‘following testimony to the religion practized by the body :— The system of slavery denies to & whole class of human beings the eacrednegs of marriage aud of home, compelling them to live ina state of concu- binege; for, in the eye of the law, po colored slaye- man {s'the husband of any wife in particular; no slave- maa js the father of any child in particular; and no slave cluld isthe cuild of any parent in particular.” Mr. Stuart, of Iilinois, thus reprobates tbe sin of the body:— “Tn this chureh a man may take a free-born child, it away from ita parents, to whom God gave it in ol taying, ‘Bring it up for me,’ and aell it asa beasts, or hold itin perpetual bondage, and not only escape cor, punishment, but reaily be esteemed an excellent Christian. Nay, even ministers of the Gospel and Doctors of Divinity may cpgago in this unholy traffic, and yet sustain the high and boly calling.” iat is the action of this society abroad? It has miseions among the Choctaw and Chero- kee Indians, the church members of which hoid slaves, Complaints were received of their robbing parents of their cbildren, and sending them where they are never beheld i by them sgain. The matter was complained of to tha Board, the Board referred the complaint to the mission- aries: the miteionaries coolly replied, in tras American spirit, that the separation of parents and children js not forbidden by the express injunction of the Seripture, There the matter was allowed by the Board to rest. Polygamy is known to exist in the mission churches; the board tolerates a crime for which its‘churchea, at hone y with excision any one of ite members. the directors of the London Missionary Society to ponder over, and to controvert if they can, the state- ment made by Mra.
