MISCELLANEOUS FOREIGN ITEMS. Count Cavour ina recent circular, June 22, replies to the English government remarks on the conduct of Sar- @inia towards the duchies of Parma and Modena. He gays:—'‘No one, in fact, ia ignorant that the attack against Piedmont was prepared on the territory of Parma. It ‘was there that the Ausirian troops collected and threaten- €q our frontier; \t was by borrowing the territory of the duchy that they invaded Piedmont. Piacenza had become the principal oasis of Count Gyulai’s offensive operations; Voghera, Tortona, were occuplea by an army corps tl advanced by the frontier of Piacenza; the march on Bob- bio started thence. If Alessandria was threatened, if our communications with Genoa were for an ingtant com- promised, this must be attributed w the violation of the territory of the duchy. The Earl of Malmesbury, in bis despatch, has ahown a desire only to insist op one fact, which is, that the government of Parma bad never fuiled in the duties of noutrality, ‘and thet Austria bad slways respected her. In order to refute these allegations I need only recall to mind the military operations that took place from end after the 2$tb of April; they prove that the information which reached Lord Malmesbury was inaccurate. If tho Minis- ter of British Foreign Affairs bad raised the diecuseion on otner ground, aud invoked in favor of the Parmesan government anterior treaties that placed it in an exc tional position, it would have been easy for me to haye replied in a no less aatisfactory manner.’? A letter from Turin of July 2d, in Le Nord says:—A pe- rusel of some of the documents contained In the blue book will completely just!'y what M. de Cavour has stated with regard to the conduct of the governments of the Duchies, and tbe fiagrant proofs they bave given of vas- salage to Austria and bostiiity to Piedmont.

We ehould rejoice to see a brave, a chival- Tour, and en intelligent nation, allied to us by numerous ‘vouds of religion, temperament and institutions, rescued from the siuggishly cruel despotism of the incorrigible Austriang. Bot we cannot believe that M. Kossuth or M. Koeguth’s new master, will do much towards regaining the freecom of Hungary. Force and fraud, however will break shields however brosd. Qut abu boira, and if M. Kossuth expects good faith and the fuldiment of promises from the Judas Cwaer of the Lower Empire, he im, to cay the least, a very eanguine and simple minded man.

A Genoa let'er, speaking of the new Sardinian Commis- sioner to Romagna, eaye:—Massimo d’Azeglio’s name, ever aiuce 1845, has been before the world as iy, earnest, exporitor of the corruptions of the temporal government of Rome. His celebrated pamphlet of the “ Casidi Romag- na,” just published before tho accossion of Piue IX, had, it ig anid, through its convincing statement of ecclesiasti: ‘cal misrule, much influence in determining that new Pon- tif on entering opon that career of reform to which ho now shows h‘mecif 80 hoetile—or, rather, to which his Minister, Cardinal Antonelli, is £0 hostile—for all inde- dence of will or action Pius Jong since Inid aside. As ime Minister of Sardinia, from 1849 to 1852, Azeglio showed bimself consistent to his political professions as # writer, and introducea those changes in the Legislature which; by doing away with many oppressive rights and fmmunities of the clergy, provoked an antagoniem from Rome which bas thrown innumerable difticuities in the way of the Piedmontese constitutional government. A Parie latter of July the 5th, in the London Times; saye:—Victor Emanuel could not do all he bag done but for the assistance given him by his powerful ally the Emperor of the French, who is placed in this dilemma— that if so largea portion of Centrai Italy, the States ofthe churck, is left unliberated and unregenerate, the mission be hes undertaken is imperfectly accomplished: and if it ‘be securlarized he must of course bear his gbare of any penalties with which the Pope may threaten the violators of the integrity of “St. Peter's patrimony,’’ and their abettors. I cannot see any way of getting out of this diili- culty except by a voluntary surrender of the immunities claimed by the Holy Father, and such a surrendor is far from probable. Calm in the consciousness of his own in- tegrity and single mindleness, his Majesty will doubt lees smile at the /Tum imbelle thet;may be flung from the Vatican; but there is a large body of men to whom hig Majesty owes much, and from whom be may continue to require services, who will not treat that weapon heedleasly. The clergy of France are not yet re- lieved from tbe alarm which the Italian war at first in- spired; they were reassured and comforted by the decia ration? cmannting from the Imperial government, that the Papacy wouid be left untouched. This alarm has revived sar Ua voor. advances in bis work, for they know that neitber M. Cavour nor the King who governs under him, would #0 advance except under higher auspices. ‘To the clregy who aro in communion with the church of Rome the ‘major excommunication” ailuded to in the l’ontifical al'ocntion is no trifle; tt purports to deprive those against ‘who it is launched of all participation in the public prayers which the church celebrates for the faithfa!, of the right of receiving and administering the ‘‘sacraments,’*as well as of being present atthe divine oflices of ecclesiastical ecpulture, of the power to elect or to be elected to eccle siastical dignities—and, in a word, they are cut of from ail communion with the faithful either in sacred or human affairs, The Paris Patrie of the 6th of July says:—We have never called in doubt the right of the Holy See to re establish its authority in ite states. We, however, said tbat the events of Perugia were much to be regretted, but we did pot cast the responsibility of these events on causes which had nothing to do with them; we did not allege, as others have done, that the revolution was the first cause of all the evil, because, in this case, thero was DO question of revolution, and because the sole cause of the movement was the noble idea of Italian indopendence. Are the Roman States Ttalian—yes or no? Yee, no doubt; and consequently, how can any one suppose that they will be completely disinterested in tho question of the inde- pendence of Italy? The Pontifical throne is above the #torms which are now reging: but there is a question which must be solved in the spirit of justice and of vic- tory. By its spiritual power tho Holy See is above that question, kut_by ite temporal power it forma of it; and it is by not putting the two powers in accord that Car- Vo Antonelli has caused painful and lamentable compli- cations, The London Times, in reporting the termination of Com- memoration Day, at Oxford University, on the 6th of July, saye:—Loyalty and gallantry united, to produce loud and frequent cheers for “the Queen,’ but equal popularity did not seem to attach to her Majeaty’s Ministers.

Nearly 10,000 more were present than on either the pro- ceding days; and yet the most perfect order was main tained from first to last—a fuct, it must be allowed, not Jees creoitable to the vast asembly itself than to the gen tlemen who undertook the post of “stewards,” and who inay here be complimented for tho zeal. efficiency and in- variabie politeuess with which they fulfilled their duties, sided by tha weil-conducted boay of police under the di- rection of Superintendent Payne. So entirely satisfactory were the prelimipary srrabgemenuts, that at the com: Mencement of the second part 0” the oratorio, all the bar- riers were withdrawn, and the palic generally adiitted to any vacant place, abd this without involving the slight- eet disturbance, or, indeed, any inconvenience whatever. Inthe morning ‘the greatest excitement prevailed, it being pretty well sscertained that ‘Israel in Egypt”? and the last day of the feetival combined would attract a much larger number to the Crystal Palace than had yet attended. The doors were to open at the usual hour— eleven—but @ littie aiter ten such a multitude had ar- rived, by road and railway, that ihe pressure om the vari- ous Derriers begun to create diequietude, and it was found advisable to remove them before the appomted time, At bulf-past ten the majority of tue hulf-guinea seats were filled; and shortly aftor the stalls, the galleries and other cepartinente were occupied with ‘such rapidity that the central transept became animated, as it were, by magic, Long before the performance begun the eye could scarcely twavel beyond the dease masa of human beings that en- countered it in almost every direction, even from the gal- leries that seem to touch the roof. When the Priace Con. gort and hig distinguished party entered the royal box, situated in the centre of the lower gallery, exactly oppo site the condnctor’s chair—the coup d’ail was complete, and no words can possibly describe its magniticence. The audience, some 27,000 in number, and the multitude ‘of singers and players’ who left scarcely a nook unappro- Priated in the enormous orchestra, were standing; and the cheers that greeted the illustrious visiters were near- ly ag bearty and unanimous az if her Majesty the Queen (whose absence was universally regretted) had been among them, The ‘National Anthem’ was then per- formed (solos by Madame Novello); the loyal demonstra- tions were reuewed; and, this indispensable ceremonial disposed of, the commencement of Handel's colloesal mias- terpiece was awaited in decorous silence. Soon the familiar voice of Mr, Sims Reeves was beard in the reci- tative disclosing how the “new King over Egypt which knew not Joseph’’ afliicted the children of Israel with burdens (there is no overture to “Israel in Egypt”); and thus was inaugurated with impressive effect one of the most truly marvellous performances ever listened to. As most of the choruses in ‘israel’ are fer two. choirs (‘double choruses,” or choruses in eight parts), certain alterations in the distribution of the various depart mente—trebles (or goprancs), aitos, tenors and basses— were necessary, ihe result of which set forth the indies of the chorus with much more pictureeque effect. They now formed a kind of eemicircle—most grateful to the eye in the midst of that huge dark mass of men—hanging, as it were, like a necklace round the organ. The firstchorus, “and the children of Iarae! eighed””—which paints the deepair of the oppressed nation, ‘whose cry came up to God”—and in which, by the simple reiteration of the word “sighed”? to different harmony, Handel attains the very height of pathos—cave an excellent angury of what was to come, and foreshadowed a se. ries of choral displays wholly unparalicied. With the exception of a single alr for contralto—‘Their land brougnt forth frogs,” (admirably sung by Miss Dolby)—and another recitative for tenor, in which the Divine mandate is revealed to Moses and Aeron, the rest of the first part of ‘Israel,’ as our musical read. ers ure aware, consits of an uninterrupted succession of choruses, rising one above the other in gublimity, as peak overtops peak in a lofty mountain range, aud deyot- ed to a narration of the plagues inflicted on the Fgyptians, and ihe miracles through meang o which the destruction of Pharaoh and his host and the deliverance of the chosen peopleare accomplished. The resson why Handel allud- ed to the plague of frogs in a solo, instead of a chorus, gcems evident. The subject was too mean, on the one hand; and on the other, the curse of flies, aud lice, and locusts bad to be illustrated immediately after. How splendidly this is done in the double choras—“He spake the word, and there came ali manner of flies, &c.’’—need hardly be insisted on. The barbarous custom, dating from Handel's own day—when “Israel” was a fatlure—of interpolating airs and duets from operas and oiner works of the composer, in the performance of “Israel in Egypt,” bus happily been abolished. We now hear the composition as it was originally shaped, and the gain ts incaleuiadle. No words can do justice to the effect of the choruses yeater- day. “They loathed to drink of the river,” a masterly fugue, in which strange chromatic intervals, amid a pro- fusion of elaborate Larmouy, arc, with wonderful ekill, made subservient toa poetical expreasion of the disgust with which the Egyptians reject toe water miraculously turned into blood ; * He spake the word,” already mention et, an ctobodiment of the fearful plague of insecte; “He gave them hailetones,” a miraculous combination of sim plieity and power; “Ee emote all the firet- born of Egypt" — and, bot to prolong the catalogue, the choruses recapitu- lating the departure of the Israclites, laden with silver and gold; tho delight of the Egyptians at being rid of their tormentors; the passage through ine Red Sea; the pursuit of Pharaoh and his host, with their destruction; and, finally, the awe with which the people are inspired by such manifestations of Almighty power, were one and all delivered with a strength, precision and magnificence of etloct for which no amount of praise would be excessive. To single out one or two from the rest as the culminating points ot this very fine performance, wo may point to the ‘Hailstone’’ chorus, and ‘He rebuked the Red Sea.’”? In the former ‘which, as in 1857, was encored fn a storm of enthusissm) fh paetage, “Fire, mingled with tho hail, ran along upon the ground”? (ono of the most vivid examples of Handel’s descriptive genius), came out with a force und sharpness nothing short of prodigious. In the last the answer to the rebuke, “And it was driod up; and the tremendous climax, “But the waters overwhelmed their enemies,” in which, wiih obetimate iteration, wo are reminded that “Not one of them was left,” were equally impreseive, raising the interest of the audience to the highest pitch, and engendering @ twingled feeling of astouisument and delight. Aiter all this choral thunder it might have beon thought that nothing else would follow with advantage, but Hau. del was inexhaustible, and Moses’ Song of Praise—which. though composed first, forms the second part of the ora- torio—isas full of beauty and variety, as powerful, and ‘ag sublime as anything that has been described. Although this second part is interspersed with {airs and ducts, the choruses, as in the first, constitute its most conspicuous feature. They are chiefly, it is scarcely necessary to fay, a recapitulation of the miracles previously referred to, accompanied by apostrophes to the wisdom and great. ness of Omnipotence. That the ‘‘ Horse and his Rider,’’ with “Thy right band, O Lord, is become glorions in power’’—two of the stupendous and at tho same time two of the most familia wonld procuce an extraordinary effect no ore doubted. With leas confidence, and, indend ‘(tho experience of 1857 borne in mind), some mis givings, amateurs looked forward to“ With the blast of Thy nostrils,’ and ‘ fhe people shall hear,” which though masterpiocer of contrivance and ex ion, are £0 much more intricate and difficult than any of their companions that a thoroughly good performance of them SC OOO TL EE 18 seldom obtained.

In thie Mr. Sime Reeves surpasged ali bia previous efforta—woich, bearing in mind bow admirably he has been singingfrom the drat is saying no little.

Toe en core that ensued was not to be resiste?; aut, long as is tbeair, Mr. Reeves was forced to repeat it from the com mencement. Jastiy, Madame Novelio delivered the reci tatives of Miriam, tne Prophetess, with the force and em phasis indiepentable to their proper effect; and the stir ring and magnifloent “tdoree and his rider’”’—which terminates us well as beging the “Song of Moses" —eveo more superbly revcered by the chorus than at first, made a futing climax to a performance toat co one lucky enouga to bear it will ever be like y to forget. After the oratorio the Nationa! Anthem was reposted; and when the Prince Voosort and party wok their leave the cheering was renewed, coatinuing as tbey passed along the gallery.

[Translated from the Moniteur Bslge, June 24, for the New York Heratp } Schemes are now eiaborasing at the same time in the United States and Belgium to establish oa new basew commercial intercourse between the two countries, and to accelerate and give it more extension. 1, Direct exportation to Belgium of the cotton, tobacco &c., from the places of production in the Southera Siates, 2. Organization in those game States of fairs of the products of Belgian mauufactures appropriate to ihe con- sumption of the market and gale of those products. These are the two principal bases of the combination patronized in the United States by the Association of the Georgia Planters, and in Belgium by a Central Committee, which, after several preliminary meetings, has definitely orgaa- ized. In its first meetings the Committee has especially dis cussed that part of its programme about the fairs and Sales of the Belgian maou‘aciures in the United States. A series of resolutions bas been adopted, and an expedi tion of manufactures will be made this year as a trial. An appeal will be made to the manufacturers of the country. The Committee has communicated those resolutions to the government. The government can but applaud the effrts made for the extension of the Belgian trade and industry. Ina general point of view, and without assuming any kind of Teeponsibility as to the operations and their results, the government has answered that the Committee can rely on its sympathy and its warm desire to favor the succcss of the enterpriee by all means that it may judge practicable The aid of our agents abroad has algo be=n promised to the Committee, and a delegate bas been appointed to fol low the labors of the Commities.

A case of a very novel character came up before the magistrates of Henrico county. It was that of a Dr. George Gavinzel, a German physician, for many years practising in this city, on a charge of attempting to com mit rape upon the person of a Mrs. Boswell, the wife of acabinetmaker, who resides in the suburbs of this city The doctor, it appears, was in attendance on Mra. B. in her accouchement, which took place several days ago. Since then he visited her regularly, and finally, she alleges, attempted to commit an ouirage upon her per- person. This she resisted, and having informe her husband of the circumstance, he immediately caused a warrant to be issued for the arrest of the doctor. He was brought before Justice Nettles and bailed out in the sum of $2,000, toappear again today. The case came up, and the testimony of Mrs. Boswell was, if reliable, fully conclusive of the doctor’s guilt, so much #0 as to have induced the justice to send him on for a further hearing. The defence set up by the doctor was that the Jady was suffering from a lapsus uleri, and that she mistook the treatment of this disease for the improper attempt which ehecharges, It is said that he made in- timatious to her previously of the efficacy of the mode of treatment which she charges him witn having resorted to. But the strangest part of the whole affair is the allegation tbat the doctor offered five hundred dollars to the wo- man’s busband, and a Rey. Mr. Boggs, a Methodist cler. gyman, who was admitted to the secret of the doctor's guilt by Mrs. Bosweil, to have the matter hushed up It is Btated the parties agreed toaccent the offer, but the injured ‘woman would not be stayed in ber determination to oring the doctor to justice. She nobly repelied all attempts at compromige, and neither yielded to the entreaties of her husband or pastor. The doctor was bailed out for his appearance before the examining court in the sum of $2,000. Dr. Gayinzel occupied a high position as a physi- ciaa in this city, and enjoyed » large and lucrative prac- tice, He is a married map, snd his lady is probably one of the best looking of her sex in thiscity. Jobn Letcher, the Governor elect, has written a letter toa friend here, statiog that he intends to preecrve a neutral position with reference to the several Presiden tial arpirante. Developements of a very startling character regarding the policy of the compromise party in the South have been recently communicated to me by a gentieman perfectly familiar with ull their movements, You will have ob: served, from the tenor of the controversy whieh has been go'ng on for zome time between the *‘protectionists”” “non-protectioniste”” m the South, that the latter advocate the readoption of the Cincinnati piatform. This advocacy ig Dazed upon the snfliciency of the ‘non interference’ doctrine therein set forth, to guarantee the rights of siave holders in the Territories. The word ‘non-interference’ fe construed by them to mean “protection,” and, as Tam intormed, thoy will yield to Douglas, upon condition of his conceding to them the right to put that construction upon it. Tihe number in transitu through this city to the Springs from all parts of the South is mmense. There are alrea dy, I understand, some three or four hundred visiters at the celebrated White Sulphur, while all the other springs have a fair proportion, Old Point is nearly crowded, aud though the accommodations at this favorite resort have been largely increazed, it will in afew days be crowded to ite utmost capacity should the influx continue in the ratio reported for the past week. It is a charming place to pend a fow weeks, Scarcely had the breath left the body of the deceased Hon, Mr, Goode, when the scramble for his alippers com menced. Tunderstand that an aspirant for his postion, sojourning here, started off on re- Mr, Goode’s death to attend to his It $s in view of this vacancy that Mr. Pryor wag eaid to have left the Sia‘es, at Wash ington, and settled in Petersburg, which is embraced in Mr, Goode’s district. Of course he will be in the ring; but what his prospects are I have no opportunity of judg ing. Lshould suppoge, from the number of aspirants 0 long standing in tho district, who have for many years zealously worked for the party, that his chances are not ‘ood. In Virginia political promotion, as in the military Sopartment, is d upon ry service and lar order of succeseion, and in mauy instances length of wervice is made to supersede merit—a rule which has proved by no means compatible with efficiency in our hee a4 tions in Congress, But it is an old Virginia an ig, therefore, the more strictly adbered to. Among tho other aspirants for. this vacancy are, I understand, Wm. Old, Jr., editor of the Kzamine’, of this city, and, until recently, a resident of Powhatan county, im the Fourth’ district; Thomas F. Goode, Honry 1. Hopkins, of Petersburg, brother of Judge Hopkin 4 tive in Congress from the Thirteenth mal ick of this State, and Wm. C. Flournoy, the late independent candidate in opposition to Goode. Otbers not yet spoken of will start up before the time for holding the nominating convention arrives. There is thus a good prospect for a lively time in the Fourth Congresaional district, and it ts probable that “ squatter sovereignty,” ag maintained by the Examiner, and intervention, as advocated by the Enquirer, will form the main’ issues in the contest Thomas F. Goode is said to be the most populer of any as- pirant yot in the field, His name was mentioned in con- who was temporarl) nection with the position before the last election; but Owing to the illpess of the late representative, and his ‘copeequent inability to engage ina canvass, he declined being a candidate. His course has been very general y apreciated A and the friends of the late member will, C4 unt, attert Lbeir appreciation of it by an active of Mr. G. in the ortheoming contest. eect The movement in bebalf of Mr. Bucbavan, it ie appre- hended, will tend materially to increase the embarrass mente of his sdministration.

OUR HAVANA CORRESPONDENCE. Havana, Joly 19, 1859, The Late Treaty with Honduras—Spain Gains .\it and Gives Nothing in Return—The Captain General a Great Diplomat—Treatment of White Laborers in Cuba—A Pleasing Report—Heatth of the Ilana not Good, ds., do. I presume you have noticed the extraordinary treaty and conventional powers recently exercised by authority of the Captain General of Cuba, and delegated by him to ol. Liorente, to settle difficuities with Honduras in rela- tion to the seizure of a Spanish vessel for suppoved viola- tion of the revenue laws of the State. Although no formal treaty stipulations were drawn up and reigned by the ministers plenipotentiary of thé nigh conirastiag partie, yet the same end was accomplished by aa edict of the government of Honduras removing and reprimanding the officer who had caused tho seizure of the vessel, granting damages and refunding moneys wrongfully extorted, and finally declaring and decreeing for Spain the eame commercial privileges ‘ag the moet favored nations,” giving free and open ports for her steam marine, free coal depois for the same, and various ober privileges, without any compensating favore of 1ike cha- racter on the part of Spain towards Honduras in the ports of ber island colonies or in mother-land Weare glad to thet General Concha is #0 endowed with bign con- tracting and minieteri«l powers af to regulate wita Garza, ‘at Tampico, under appropriate metalis demonstration of his navy, or with Honduras, by the services of the highly accomplithed soldier and Civilian, Col. Liorente. Oce step more and we have ro more to desire, and thal im- plied by the powers aiready exercised: “to regulate and adjust al! difficuities that occur vetween the Uaited States or otber Powers, in or with Cuban authority, wishout re- ferring to Spain, except for subsequent confirmation ” Having ecen the frequent allusions in Northern papers to the vast frands perpetrated upon the laboring classes of the Uniteo States, by contracts for labor upon some of our interior railroads, I bave been induced to mage personal examination, in order to ascertain the truth. I find that the old Havava Railroad, which, for repairs and hohe is under the contract of Mejor Trimble, was not dod or alluded to by any of the complainants, nor the sections of new lines also uader the same supervision, The shed accommodationa for tue laborers is ail tbat they desiro. The food is abundant aad wholesome, and more contented men [have never seen. The discipline is strict, and they like it, ae they say it bas been the means o securing their health and other comforts. There is ample hozpitat ac- comuodetion for two hundred men—good and cieaa bed- Ging. ‘kiltol physician in constant attendance. There has been at one time, early in the season, one hundred and twenty on the sick report, and uo deathe I found ten a little ailing—two with intermittent fever and four conva- Jeecent—and they told me whenever I asked, which I did ‘a8 often as I could without the appearance of impertinent observation—that they hed everything they required— much more provided for them than they have ever had in Nike employment in the United States. Your iaborers need not fear to contract with Major Crimble or his ageais for any work he msy have to do im the Island of Cana. I do not know that be will bring dey more laborers to the isiand, ag they have alwaye given him troabie that be does not contract for, to watch over and for them from ‘thelr arrival to the hour of their departure on beard of a steamer forthe United States. If by any casualty hig men have become disabled, and not in condition to con- tinue fervico under their contract, be has been their first friend to aid their leaving the island—often in debt to him for advances made to them, &o. Our health is no better, but as yet not 0 bad, not so fatal, or 80 many cases as in the past two years.
