The army is di- ‘vided into two parts. one, called active, is composed of ‘the Emperor’s Moors; and the other consists of militia, commanded by the governors. The Emperor pays the ‘mer, which consists of 20,000. The militiaare paid out of the local taxes. Thero are also in large towns, such as Fez, Morocco, Tangier, &c., an urban force, which is augmented in case of need by all inhabitants ca- pable of bearing arms. When a large army is formed the governor commands the troops of his province, and is bound to provide everything necessary. The Empe- ror’s guard generally lives at the expense of the towne where it happens to be. The Generalissimo of the troops is the Emperor himself, or in his absence one of his sons, or a Prince of the imperial family. A(ter him come the ‘bajas, or governers, the mocadenies, or colonels, and the caid-el-jamsi, who have each the command of 2,500 men. The corps of artillery consists of about 1,000 men indiffe- rently ee trained. ‘The same journal gives the following particulars:—The climate of Morocco is generally temperate, and healthy. Heat is not so great as from the of country wouid be mo the chain of the Atlas defending Mo- Tocco from the east winds, which would scorch the earth Mf frequent. The summit of those mountains is alway covered with snow, and so large a quantity falls in the winter on the mountains that the inhabitants of the val- Jeys are often buried beneath it. The abundant water- courses which flow from the mountains moderate the beat of summer, while on the north and west, the sea ‘breezes refresh the earth. In the interior of the country, however, the heat is so great that small rivers are often @ried up; but, as in all other hot countries, the dow is so abundant that the nights are cool. Rain falls with tole- rable regularity, and in winter is abundant. In January the country 18 covered with verdure and flowers.

Garibaldi’s Progress Towards Revolu- Reply to France and Victor jel=Pope Pius the Ninth on Re- form and Soctal Order—Pesition of the French Envoy in Rome. A letter from Turin of the 30th ult., in the Union, says: M. Dabormida, Minister of Foreign Affairs,on returning “from Paris, eniertained the firm conviction, which he on several occasions expressed in the Council of Ministers, “that the King of Sardinia must entirely abandon the idea of getting anything in Romagna, and must in pariicular recall all the Piedmontese officers serving in the bands of Garibaldi, if he wished France to aid him in a European Congress.” A courier was sent to Garibaldi with counsel in accord- dance with the desires of the French Cabinet, but the Ge- neral replied by a very sharp letter to the effect that the command of the Romagnese troops had been spontaneously offered hitn by the political chiefs of that country; that on his arrival he had found, not an army capable of serving, ‘Dut a mere mob without discipline or cohesion, and that in Jess than two months he had increased their numbers and disciplined them;, that it was he, in fact, who had created She army of Romagna, and that’ the fate of that country ‘was in his hands; and. that ly he would never in any case cede to ‘he counsels of a Power which has injured the Italian cause. He said, moreover, that if the Pied- monteste Mifiistry should be disposed to adopt a ‘new ling of policy different from that which he and the Cavour Ca- Dinet bad adopted in common, he (Garibi would maintain alone that policy, and would cause it to triumph over all weakness and ail resistance.” This letter, which it ig said was addres to the King, was read in full coun- cil, and it caused a difference-of opinion among the Minis- ters—Messrs. Dobormida and Della Marmora wanting to digavow completely tho presumptuous general and to join the conservative party, and the other Ministers being opposed to such a rupture, It is this incident which gave rise to the re) that a modification was about to take place in the policy of the Cabinet. + Another Turin letter of the 80th ult. says:— General Garibaldi, who arrived here the evening before Jast, left again yesterday for Bologna, atter a long au- dience with the King. MM. Migliorati and Rosa, who were the only Piedmontese functionaries remaining in Romagna, have just resigned their posts ns Intendants of Ferrara and Ravenna. You will not fail to perceive the litical significance of this measure, with which the Sar- eae government and M. Dabormida’s late journey to Paria are not unconnected. e A letter from Rome, in the Indépendance of Brussels, Says:—I have reason to believe that the following details respecting tho understanding come to between the Pouti- Court and France are correct:— ‘The Duke de Gramont, during the stay of the Popo at Castel Gandolfo, contrived, with great tact, to give tho Pope salutary counsel. ‘I will reflect seriously, Mousiour Je Duc,” said the Pope to the Ambassador on the eve of leaving for Porto d’Anzio, ‘on all that you have said to me, and for which I am much obliged to you. On my re- turn we will endeavor to come to an understanding on all that is not contrary to the interests of thechurch.”’ Tho day after his return the Pope was the first to revive the subject, and from what he said in the course of a long conversation the French Ambassador felt almost certain that Pius IX. is disposed to mako serious reforms, such ‘as extensive judicial ameliorations, communal elections on Jarge an‘ liberal bases, and a very extensive seculariza- tion of the administration; but the Pope, it is said, stipu- lates that first of all the integrity of his States shall bo guaranteed to him. ‘This last point presented a serious difficulty. The Dnko do Gramont, howover, not discouraged, has assured tho of French protection, and has dwelt on the fact that the treaties of Villafranca and Zurich adopt the principle of re-establishment of his temporal powers in the Lega- 8. He, however, at the eame time, showed the Pope the imposstbiuty of foreign intervention, and labored. to eonvince him that a restoration of his authority would be infinitely more casy if the proclamation of a new system of administration were to precede coercive moagures— measures which it is admitted the Pope has the right to fsa ident do not assume the charactor of for-» gign Intervention oven on the part of another Italian Btate. Duke de Gramont, in order, no doubt, to cn- in his favorable intentions, has hinted against French inflaence. {From the London Times, Nov. 4.; ‘The position which M.

[From the Londen Times, Nov. 5.) Lord Macaulay describes Frederick the Great with much humor, as fighting pitched battles with corrosive subli- mate pills in one pocket, and a quantity of bad verses in the other. The Emperor Otho’s gejuipment for a civil war, im which were to be decided the fortunes of the whole civilized world, was, according to Juvenal, a pocket look- ing glass. Sir Charles Napier defined the outtit of a good officer on hard duty to consist of a razor, a piece of soap and one clean shirt. Bat in the New World they mans these things better. The viaticum for a civil, or rather a servile war, such as Spartacus might have commanded, in the United States, is something very different, but quite as characteristic of the land and the people, as the poison and bad verses of Frederick, the mirror of Otho, or the razor of Napier. A few desperate men drew together, and, with views of which we are as yet very imperfectly informed, seized upon an armory of the government situ- ate ina remote and most picturesque region at the conflu- ence of two mighty rivers on the confines of Maryland and Virginia. They seem to be provided neither with arms nor numbers. We hear of no concert betweenthem andthe negroes of the surrounding districts. The place which they have chosen for their operations is not very distant from the great city of Baltimore or the seat of the federal government at Washington. In all this we see little proof of that care and deliberation which might be expected in a movement which has for its object catia, J Jess than the over- throw of the great American Union, as established by law and sanctioned by time. They only took one ution: they provided themselves with a . Some people might have thought that, if the projected rising of the negroes succeeded, the emergencies of war would im- mediately supersede any attempt at regulating the affairs of the insurrection by means of a written constitution, and tbat, in the much more probable event of failure, the Jaw of the conquerer would provide very efficiently for the brief remainder of the lives of the vanquished, ere is something grotesque in the midst of the terrors of civil war to see the men who are struggling to let loose upon their masters the passions of hundreds of thou- sands of negroce anfurtated sage, and brutal: com} ignorance, undertaking such a@ vant wth the tat the turbulent elements which let loose could be control a, bade ‘with the rights of pete ls few vagraphe of man and end- eens feclaration that the topeqoing articles should not be so asin any way to encourage. the over- throw of any State government or of the general’ govern- it of the United States, and look to no dissolution of e Union, but simply to amendment and repeal. ‘To overthrow the whole framework upon which, in the Southern States of America, the fabric of soctety rests, to lace arms in the hands of a million of exasperated slaves, is, according to these visionaries, not civil or servile war, but simply moving an amendment and repealing an obnoxious statute. We should have onght, however, that such an assembly as the insur: gents of Harper’s Ferry eontemplated calling to- gether, would have required somothing more than a President and Vice President, something more than a di- vision of government into executive, legislative and judi- cial, and that martial law, or the ‘will of the General, would have been more useful to curb the unquiet spirits which such a crisis must call forth than a constitution based on a Congress consisting of ten members elected by universal suffrage, and a Chief Justice and four Puisne Judges appointed in the sine manner. The spirit of the provisional government of Tascany seems to have crossed the Atlantic and alighted, with outstretched wings, on the banks of the Shenandoah and the Potomac. Just as the Tuscan government has em; the brief leisure allowed it to organize Naly for defence in proposing subjects for statu- ary, and going prizes for essays on the art of draining ‘marshes, 80 the leaders of the black insurrection can find no more suitable subject to occupy their minds on the eve of their desperate enterprise than provisions that the treaty of peace which they were no doubt about to compel the United States government to accept} should be signed by the President and Vice President aud ‘ity of the Supreme Court, the representatives of the pe@ple, and the ye officers, Or a law that marriage relations should r ted, for the erection of schools aud churches and the proper observance of Sunday. These are not the words nor the topics that set men’s blood on fire, and ash them forward to confront numbers without count- a them, and dangers without regarding them. ‘The pro- clamation that calls to arms a nation not figuratively, but Iiterally enslaved, must go more home to the hearts and pas- sions of men than these cold abstractions, this me:ancholy pedantry of order and civilization in the midst of fire and Slaughter. We observe an allusion in this strange docu- ment, which would, doubtless, be oenly appreciated, to the necessity of reuniting scattered families; but we can- not see why the institution ef private property was to be abolished, and the proceeds of the labor and plunder of the community formed into a fund to be distributed among the people, much after the fashion which the Spaniards found existing throughout the empire of Peru. To judge by the provisions of this extraordinary docu- ment, the conduct of a revolution never fell into hands more utterly unable to direct it. It would seem that Mr. Brown and his friends had no conception of any manner of carrying on public business except that which they were familiar with in the constitution of the American States, and supposed that democratic assemblies, supreme courts, and elective presi- dents and vice-presidents were a machinery as indis- pensable for war as for peace. We remark that while they denounce the carrying of concealed weapons they distinctly declare that it shall be lawful to carry weapons openly, as if they supposed that men fighting for their lives and liberties would require a distinct permission be- fore they ventured to yiolate the law which forbidsslaves from carrying arms. These occasional outbreaks are not peculiar to American. slavery, but were the scourge of all the nations of anti- quity, and of none so much as Rome in the very palmiest days of the republic. A servile war is a subject from which history willingly averts her face, and the outbreaks which from time to time have taken place in America have been forgotten by the aie public ‘as soon as they wore quelled in torture and in blood. But each of these insurrections, contemptible as they may ap- pear in numbers, in intelligence and in tion, is a symptom of a state of things which a wise and under- Standing people will do well not to neglect too long.

Many executors upon opening these communications were led to comply with the appeal under ‘a desire to act in accordance with any possible wish ofthe deceased person; and there is reason to believe that the trade proved very lucrative. It was completely brought to anend, however, by the publicity given to it.. The. parti have, ‘therefore, been driven to new expedients, an their plan now is to transmit letters to address of deceased persons, purporting to come from a woman whom they have deserted, and who clalms aid for a dy- ing child. This-has probably brought more success eve: than the former plan, since it has awakened the fears families and desire to ‘ayert scandal. About a fortnight back two of these communications reached the hands of mutual friends, and the imposition being thus apparent a copy of the production was inserted in the Morning Ad- vertiser.

At first there was little cre- dence dttached to the report, as such a length of time, had elapsed since the affair took place.

Tho first person applied to stated that he dare not give any information, as it was ox- pressly forbidden and might lead him into difficulty, and added’ that Mr. Benedict, the Deputy Surveyor, might perhaps give the required information; as ‘he had had the whole matter under his charge. Mr. Benedict denied knowing anything about it, and as such things were of every day occurrence he had not troubled himself about it; besides, be added, it was ‘‘none of the public’s busi- ness.” As there was an evident determination to conceal the facts for some purpose, our reporter gave up further investigation.

Tho months of July, August and September, 1857, were tho heaviest months in the importing trade ever known in the history of the country; and the impetus imparted to im- migration, settlement, and agriculture in the West, led to correspondingly heavy salea. of public lands. The im- ports during the quarter ending September 30 last were in many instances too heavy for the interests of the im- porters. Judging, however, from past experience, and the expressed opinions of leading merchants, they can- not be regarded.as a maximum even for the current fiscal year. If weare rightly informed, Mr. Cobb may look forward, to still heavier receipts for duties during the quarters onding lst March and 30th June next. The sales of Treasury notes still proceed, as will be seen above, at the rate of about $1,200,000 month. By next June, Mr. Cobb will probably be able to reduce tho amount outstanding to a very moderate figure. ‘The Bank statement of to-day compares as follows with that of last week :— Week Loans. ie.

We may probably look for a reaction and lower rates again in the course of a week or 80. At the present season of the year there is no reason why the money market should exhibit signs of stringency, or even cn- hanced rates. ‘In foreign exebange there is very little doing. There are very few commercial bills in the market, however, and some of the brokers look for a livelier demand to- morrow.

Decidedly the coolest railroad proposition of the day has just been made known by Mr. J. Edgar Thomson, President of the Pittsburg, Fort Wayne and Chicago Rail- road. The public are aware that that resd, which, in the language of the President a few weeks since, was “realy to fight the New York roads till they bad enough of it,”” does not pay its interest. A few months ago we had oc- casion to remark upon the extreme injustice displayed by the managers, who defaulted on their first mortgage bonds, but paid in full the coupons on their constraction bonds—a later issue—in which the friends of the directors were said to be interested. Mr. Edgar Thomson has now a new scheme t ventilate. He says:— roposed to readjust the debt as follows:— 1. All the present first mortgages to be assigned to a trustee; anew first mortgage to be executed to the gnid trustee [for $5,100,000. The bonds under this mortgage “to be frredeemable, and tofbear six per cent per annum,” instead of seven per cent, as on the old issnes, 2.
