F., by the City of Baitumore, will be found highly impor. tart and full ot interest’ The points of this in- telligence are as tollows:— First. Notwithstanding the fabricated reports rent ont by the Neapolitan government of the utter rout of Garloaldi i Sicily, that warrior ts not only not detested, but ted defeated and driven back the royal troops eeut to meet hiw, ana hed proceeded on bis victorious march through the island to the investiture of Moreilla wbicb commands Palermo, the capital aod stropgbold of Sicily. The people were every- where rising in bis favor and flockiog to hie standard, and the chances of his ultimate suc- cest and compiete pos-ersion of the islaud were decidedly strong. There is one fact wbich speaks volumes, The King sevt out General. Filapgbieri with a proclamation Offering pardon to the insurgents if they would Isy dowa their arms— & proporition which, considering the bloody and relevtiess charecter of the Neapolitan go- vernment, must have been dictated by fear, and bot by mercy. It te evident that Naples is abandoned to her fute by the other European Powere—Austria will not and cannot raire a fioger. England pot only looks on, but permits subscriptions to be raised to help the cause of insurrection; and as for Victor Emanuel, it in believed that be has an understanding with Garibalai, whereby, if the bold chieftain of revo- Jutiop succeed, hiv work eball be recognized and endorsed. That the revolutionary successes will not be confined to the island is more thaa proba- bie, aod ip a very sbort time we may expect to see Naples a well as Sicily revolutionized, and ibe eptire kingdom declaring for annexation to the crown ot Victor Emanuel, for that name is ibe rallying cry of the revolutionists every- where, and bis tbrone tbe centre of Italian unity. It is no longer an Italian republic that is songht by the peeple. Mazzini himself bae given up that idea as visionary, and bas joined in the popular cry for the King of Sardivie. That Italy—all Italy—will no lopger be a mere “ geographical expression,” but one united nationality under a single go- tails of European affuirs to the 23d ult. The news fs important. The movements of Garibaldi eclipse Overything else. It will be seen by our letters, Gespatches and extracts, that the rumors of bis de- feat at Calataimi were without foundation, but, on the other bard, Garibaldi’s forces have driven the royal troops from place to place. The engagement st Calataimi was eimply between the Neavolitan troops and a small number of Italian volunteers from Malta, who were marohing to join thoxe land- ed at Marsala. The latest advices were that Gari- baldi bad obtained a decided victory at Monreale— B town of about 13,000 inhabitants, and four miles verpment, is indicated by ali the signs in the political firmament ot Europe. It is the policy ples, to prevent their future combination against bim as well as to extioguish their hated dynasty. But he, at the same time, does not want to eee Victor Emanuel too strong. Eag- land, on the contrary, desires a strong Italian kingdom sfter her own representative model, erected as a check to the Emperor of France, and therefore encourages the revolution against of Napoleon to strangle the Bourbons of Na- parts of Sicily. importance, and the crowned heads of Earope saw forebodings of war in every political cloud. The Derby races took place on the 22d, and Um- pire came in the eleventh. The race was won by Thormamby. The steamship Cahawba, Capt. Smith, arrived bere last evening from Havana, with dates to the B0th ult.

The Chamberlaincy difficulty contiaues to be a subject of general discussion. In conseqneuce of the decision of the Corporation Counsel as to the irresponsibility of Mr. Stout's sureties for moneys received by that gentleman since his assumed legal removal by Mayor Wood, a new bond to secure the funds entrusted to him bas been accepted by the Comptroller. On Satarday, in the Superior Court, final judg- ment was rendered in the Forrest divorce case. The Court ordered that Mr. Forrest should pay into the Ucited States Trust Company in New York, ‘or the benefit of Mrs. Forrest, the sum of $35,593, veing tbe amount adjudged, and also $966 98 for sts. disbursements, &c.

But Napoleon has already taken good security that the Italian kingdom will pot become too strong for him, and he has eccordingly gained possession of the passes of the Alps which divide France from Italy. And thie leads us to the next point in the news. Secondly. We have aconfirmation of the pre. vious intelligence that Austria, who was appealed to by Bogland, will not interfere as to theSwies portion of Savoy, which Napoleon desires in or- der to make bis frontier complete. Austria says, in effect, that itis none of her business. When sbe was engaged in a deadly struggle with France, Englend did not assist her, and now let England take her own course, and let the for- tresses of France, from the sammite of the Alps, frown down upon the pieins of Piedmont. Thus the Italian question settles itself without a con™ ference, and just in the way Nepoleon intended trom the beginning it should be settled. The third point of interest in the intelligence from Europe is, that France and Russia have entered into the old treaty, by which Russia can work her will in the East, while France has ber fitng in the West. Thus, between them, they will rule all Europe. Accordingly, we learn by tbis arrival that the Rassian troops in the Southern provinces are placed on a war footing. The moutbs of the Danube and the Danubian Principalities, which Russia lost by the last war with France and England, will soon again become her prey. England, we are told, will not agree to have the Eastern ques tion settled by conference, because she knows that ber interests would be ignored in such a conclave, and that she would be outvoted on every issue. But it will soon settle itself, with- out her assistance. Austria, crippled and pow- erlees, will not dare to utter @ remonstrance, but, on the contrary, will be very giad to be permitted to retain what she has. The condi- tion of Hungary, ready to throw off ber yoke, is the frail bond which France and Rossia hold for the good bebavior of Austria. Aod as for Pruetia, she is too much alarmed for the safety of ber Rbenish provinces on the left bank of the Rhine—tbat natnral boundary which France very much néeds in addition to the Alps. She is too much alarmed on this vital point to at- tempt to interfere with the desigas of the two emperors, leet she should precipitate what she eo mach dreads. The fourth and last point of the news is, that the Chinese government absolutely refuses the ultimatum of England and France, and that war is the only alternative. All these complications and movements show that Napoleon is master of the situation, and that, surveying the political chessboard, he can move the pieces as he pleases, while bie adversaries are in check, and cannot advance to attack him. Owing to the pe- culiar relations of Russia to the Danubian Principalities, of Austria to Hungary, of Prussia to the Rhenish provinces, of Denmark to Holstein-Schieewig, of Eog- land to China, and of France to Italy, the Powers of Europe must either let the Em- peror of the French bave his way, or consent to a conference in which the treaty of Vienna, levelled against the Napoleon dynasty, will be wiped out on one side, and the treaty of 1866, at the close of the Crimean war, levelled against the progress of Ruesia, will be obiite- rated on the other side. After Napoleon IIt- entered on his bold career in the Italian war, an attempt was made to get up an alliance of the Powers of Europe to crush him, as they did Na- poleon L But instead of that, this master epirit is crushing them one by one by bringing them into collision with each other, or by holding the special interests and enmities of each in terrorum over the other; he is achieving all that his great uncle aimed at, but ina differen: way, and by avoiding his mistakes. By the acts of Giplomacy and international politics, mingled in due proportions with war, he is steadily ac- Complishing what the fiery genius of the hero of Austerlitz sought to achieve by force of arms NEW YORK HERALD, MONDAY, JUNE 4, elene.

We publiebed on Saturday accounts from Cali_ fornia to 18thof May. The moet importantitem in the news was the account of a battle between 8 body of militia, organized for the purpose of turresting several Indians accused of murdering eovers) whites while they were asleep, at Mil- ler’s station, on Carson river, about miles from the valley settlements, The militia force altogether amounted to about one bun- dred wen, who were attacked by s greatly su- perior force of Indians on the 12th of May, abont sixty miles from Virgiaia city, the prio- cipal settlement in the new Washoe mines. Of the whole number of whites twenty-one were killed, three wounded, and forty-three are miss ing. Of course the mest exaggerated reports of the affair were circulated all over California, Tt was stated that the Indians intended to kill all the whites at the Wasboe mines, and that s general war would result. At Placervilie snd other points companies of volunteers were raised and sent forward to the frontier. The commander of the United States forces on the Pacific sent one huadred and fifty regulars, with ample provision of arms aod ammunition. Our correspondent, who is well informed, puts the number of volua- teers in the field at three hundred, and of regu lars forty lese. The whole number of Indians in the war district is put at two thousand; but that will be magpified speedily if the conflict continues; for this Indian fight, like many others we could mention, bas been engineered un- doubtedly by persons who are interested in furnishing supplies for our troops. There is an immense deal of humbug about all these Indian wars, and we have been obliged more than once to call the attention of the public to the modus operandi of reckless and un. scrupulous Indian lobbyists at Washington and elsewhere. The Florida war cost forty millions of dollars, a good part of which was clear downright robbery. The parties who insti- gated the Indian fightein Oregon and Wasb- ington have a little bill of six millions against the government, and there are plenty of smaller affairs’ of the same sort. The plan for getting up an Indian war is very simple. Some*of the whites on the borders are quite as barbarous as the Indians themselves, and always ready to pick e quarrel. By fomenting bad blood between the Indians and the settlers, a general conflict is brought eboat. The most awfal accounts are sent to Washington, and appropriations are made for the payment, subsistence and transportation of militia that perhaps never took the field at all. Large bodies of regulars are sent out, govern- ment contractors wax fat, and when the job is all over, it is found, generally, that the Indians have all along been in favor of peace. This latter fact is proven beyond all question by the conduct of the Indians in the old States, and some of the Territories where they are on good terme with the whites. No quieter neighbors or more pacific residents could be desired. The Indian in the valleys of the Slerra Nevads dif- fers only from the Indian in Western New York aa thé White man at Washoe differs from the white man on Broadway. We believe, too, from competent authority, that the employment of militia as Indian fight- ere is an utter absurdity. More useless, unre- liable or expensive troops cannot be found. The Texas members of Congress have been making s great noise over the new ment of mounted men to be rec in that State; but it is stated by than one army officer that the Texan is not near so good as the regulars if the Indian is seriously inclined to fight. We believe that a hundred United States mounted riflemen are more effective against ten times their number of Indians than a handred militia would be to an equal force of savages. If the honest miners at Washoe, some ten thousand or more in number, are not capable of defend- ing themeelves against a couple of thousand Indians, the very best thing the former can do is to leave their present occupation and go out se dry nurses or turn men milliners. Alto- gether we look upon this last Indian war as an unmitigated humbug. It may be, however, the opening of a series of running fights which are to end ina general conilict to be kept up as long as the government money lasts. If all the Indian appropriations were stopped for six months, and the agents removed (their posts to remain vacant), we should have very little trouble with the tribes. apd i Tar Pouce axp tue Prize Fiowrens.—We give today a very full and interesting account of the incursion of the police upon the prize ring at Centreville, Long Island, and Willett’s Point, on Saturday, together with the examina- tion of the arrested parties. This is about the first instance, we believe, of the police inter- fering in time to prevent the commission of a crime, they being generally either not on the spot atall, or only arriving after the evil is done. But on this occasion they were exceed- ingly prompt and efficient, for which we give them all due credit. It is complained, indeed, that they acted with great severity in making the arrests; but probably they conceived it ne- Cessary to exercise more than ordinary violence in dispersing a crowd of men whose habits are not of the most peaceful or lamblike character. la dealing with desperate fellows like these— Knights of the Muscle—who are given to hit ting straight from the shoulder, and, moreover, who are rarely unarmed—it is probable that the police thonght that if they should saffer any check at all in the performance of their duty they would be certain to get the worst of it. The promptitade of the police in this case, we are glad to see, was equalled by that of the magistrate before whom the arrested parties were taken, who held the two heroes of the P. R. and the principal aider and abetter to bail for their appearance in court, and fined two or three more of the lookerson on the spot. A few more arrests of this kind, and a little more watchfulness on the part of the police, would s00n put a stop to prize fighting in and about the metropolis. A Brsy Summer i THE Merroro.is.—A good- ‘y number of our wesithy reeidente are prepar- tpg for their ueval summer hegira; but we optoe that tbe rapid increase in the number of beaa- tiful villas near the city proper, aud the opea- ing of the Central Park, and the grand summer sensations which are impending, will make a marked diminution in the number of persons who leave comfortable homes in the city to be made very miserable in the country, for the sg- gravdizement of aset of extortionate tavera- keepers, the usual run of persons who keep what are called hotels at fashionable watering places. In any event, the Stay-at Home Club wil! bave the advantage of the fashionables who go away this year. The summer season hee set in very briskly. The town is already fuil of stran- gere—Southern planters and loungere, Western merchants, speculators and reil maulers, North- ern saints and Eastern sinners, Medes and Par- theans, Buckeyes, Hoosiers, Crackers and Wolverines, dwellers in Mesopotamia and Phrygia, and the coustries beyond the Nile—all tanning themselves nicely under the rays of the sun, which shines on the just and the unjust, on Nassau and Wall streets, on the Five Points and Fifth svenue, with com- mevdable impartiality. Bat the crowd we have here is nothing com- pared to the influx of provincials which we expect between this time and the Ist of August. The Japanese Embassy will be along about the middle of next week, and they will bring a tremendous crowd; not eo many, how- ever; as the Great Eastern, which, with ordine- tily good luck, may be expected to anchor off the Battery on or before the 1st of next month. Then we eball have the Priace of Wales, and Prince Napoleon in bis own yaoht, with the Prince de Joinville, the Count de Paris, (who is a King of France, set out in the cold for the present,) and the Duc de Chartres, (the repre- sentative of a long line of gallant princes, chivalrous knights amd dasbing chevaliers as ever drew sword or kissed a dame d’honneur)— magnificent invoice of royalty, old and new styles, original and at second band. The Great Eastern, however, is our main gen- sation. All our people fancy they know some- thing about ship building,and Mr. Bull himself admits that if Britannia expects to retain the tovereignty of the seas she must keep a sharp eye to windward for all the moder improve- ments. The Great Eastern is a long atep, seve- ral hundred feet, abead of anything else that has ever been done in the way of naval architec- ture, and there is the most intense curiosity among our people to see her. She will bring almost as great a crowd as the Crystal Palace attracted in 1853, and a repetition of the flush times of that memorable year eeems to bemore than probable. Altogether, it is not too mach to eay that our present population is over a million (we do not include the suburbs), and that before the summer is over it will be in- creased half a million by the infix of strangers. Among other matters, the Central Park has begun to excite provincial envy and admiration. The work is universally commended, and the beauty of the Park, with its fresh verdure, delicious atmoepbere, fine views, delightful walks, good hard roads, its countless equipages and crowds of equestrians and equestriennes (particularly the latter, who are increasing rapidly—horseback riding being the rage among all the pretty women in town), is the theme of praise from every tongue. People who wish to see the metropolis in its full glory and pride should come here this summer. There is room enough for a million of people if they like to gome, The hotel keepers are makizg great preparations, and everybody will be lodged comfortably and fed well at a moderate price. If they avoid the Peter Funks and the police, keep sober, abstain from evil company and the heunts of vice, which are so graphictlly described by the rural editors, strangers will find the metropolis rather s good thing to do, and not over and above dear. Tae Exopvs rrom AMERICA, AND TUE Exoovs From Inztaxp.—The newspapers at both sides of the Atlantic have been for some time com menting upon the great exodus going on from Ireland, and some of the British journals are deploring it as something alarming to behold the strength and sinew of the British empire taking their departure to other shores, every man of these emigrants being considered worth a thousand dollars in labor. They fear that Ireland, the nursery of the British army and navy, upon which, now that the Highlands of Scotland have been denuded of their hardy mountaineers, the government bas to depend almost entirely for soldiers and ‘sailors, will become depopulated. But while this exodus is on foot from Ea- rope to America, there seems to be an exodus from America to Europe as well, and not only of buman beings, but of specie. For example, the two steamers—Adriatic and Edioburg— which sailed from this port on Saturday, for Southampton and Liverpool respectively, took out nearly seven hundred passengers and over 8 million and a half of specie. Thus, we not only eend to Europe large numbers of people, but of a different class, to spend money among our friends there—each of whom may be put down as worth, say, three thousand dollars— but we send large quantities of gold as well, to keep their bank accounts equare. The English journals need not complain so hard of the Irish exodus, then; perhaps, after all, we are about quite. Avotaer Staver Cartorsp wv tae Guir.—We bave the confirmation to-day of still another capture of a slaver by the United States cruisers off the coastof Cuba. The vessel teken is a bark, and sailed under French colors. She had on board over four hundred negroes, who have been landed at Key West, and provided with temporary shelter by the United States Marshal. This last instalment makes the whole number of negroes at Key West about seventeen hundred, all of whom will be taken back to Africa and fed and lodged by our government for a year, at an expense of @ quarter of a mil- Mon dollars, The frequency of these captures, that above alluded to being the third withia a month, calls for some decided action on the part of Congress. Whatever may be the opinions of « few intemperate brawlers at the South, the moral sentiment of the country, in every tection thereof, is strongly in favor of putting down the slave trade. It can be effectually ar- rested by the enforcement of the extsting trea- ties betwean Great Britain and Spain The British government, however, winks at the vio lation of these treaties, while it pretends to be very earnestin ite endeavors to abolish the in- ~ 1668. er rt cana bomaz traffic. There is too much reason \.? believe that English stateamen permit the trade to continue in order thet they may secure so- prentices to cultivate their deserted lands in the British Weet Indies, Under all theese cir- cumstances, it is the duty of our government to call upon the present government of Great Britain to compel Spuin to respect her treaty obligations, when the slave trade would be broken up altogether. In his last annual mes- age, the President alluded to the above named circumetence, and a resolution on the subject was introduced in Congress, sipce which time notbing bas been done about it It is now quite time that Congress moved in the matter Let the resolution be taken up and passed at once. Tue Resor or Trae Dersy—Umrme Bavry Braten.—We publiah to-dsy some account of the great Derby race, in which Mr. Ten Broeok’s horse Umpire was considered to stand well to win, but came to the post bebind ten competi- tors, Umpire being an American horse, and having an extended reputation for speed, the race attracted a great deal of attention here and its result will be mortifying to a great many pereons whore national pride induced them to invest their money on the animal They ebould have known, however, for the statement has been made over and over again, that Mr. Ten Broeck did not take his horees to England for tbe purpose of vindicating the re- putation of the United States in an equine point of view. His business is to win money on the turf, and be runs his horses to suit his betting book. If he could do better by mak- ing Umpire come in eleventh than by getting him in first, then eleventh he would assuredly be, the glory of the American eagle, the in- vincibility of the star spangled banner, the re- collections of our Revolutionary heroes, pa- triots and sages, the Fourth of July, the Eighth of January, and so on, to the contrary, not- withstanding. Mr. Ten Broeck is dealing with a set of gam- blers, and probably plays their game. It is notorious tbat there is nothing like fair play in the English betting ring, and nothing is more common in the bigber circles of turfmen than the remark, “Oh! there’s too much money bet against that horee for him to win.” A horse race is quite a different)y conducted affair from a yacht contest, in which we have already beaten the English. As to the question about the comparative merits of English and American horses, it cannot be settled even if we should some dey win the Derby. Weare not aware tbat it is of very great importance to any one except horse jockeys by trade. MOVEMENTS OF THE JAPANESE. Presents for the Embassy—Visit of Se- mator Seward to the Ambassadors— Visit to the 6mithsenian Iastitution— “Tommy” and the Ladies—Japancse Trinkets, dic., de. OUB SPECIAL WASHINGTON DESPATCH.
