Except the great eclipse, which at this present mo- ment—forty-nine minutes past two P. M.—is throwing a shadow over the face of things, and making the people look through (smoked) glasses, the greatest interest is still attached to affairs in Italy and Sicily. Garibaldi bas diemissed Farina, the premier he had appointed to preside over Sicilian affairs at Palermo. He was sus- pected, and with good reason, to be under the direct in- spiration of Count Cavour, and through him of the Em- peror Napoleon. Cavour is going to sell the Sicilians if he can, there is no doubt. Against this Garibaldi will use all hie power. In Naples affairs are all in a state of dread- ful suspense, woree, if anything, than actual hostilities. In a London paper of today you will seean aecount from the correspondent of the journal of a young man who sailed from Boston ia 1853—nativity or citizenship not stated—who has been a prisoner at Rome and Naples, alternately: at the former place by direct order of An- tonel)i himself, and under the most horrible circum- stances of torture, filth, privation, eaten up with ver- min-—actually confined for months in a privy—tortured on the rack to get from him information that he did not possess, till his bones ‘‘cracked;”” and now he is permit- ted to come out, and so near dead that it takes two men to support him, and he exclaims wildly, ‘‘Where am 1?” This is related personally by the victim to the cor- respondent himself. All this time he has never been tried or been allowed to plead? How long will such cruelties last? Two more steamers from Naples have gone over to Garibaldi, and the hero is now making all preparations to attack Messina. That will be a magnificent battle, and must result in the fall of the place. As to the intentions of France, everything i as much conjecture as ever. That the Emperor does not intend to allow either the Sicilians or the Piedmontese to have the advantages of the defeat and the discomfiture of the Bourbons without France sharing in the spoils is perfectly certain. What were the Bourbons made for? Why, certainly to sit on eggs for a thousand years, addle a great number and batch the reet for the Bonapartes. If inculcation is not completed, then they are to be swallowed whole, chick and all. And mapy another sparrow’s nest is looked after with longing eyes by our royal cuckoo.

American commerce, American tra- vellers and American missionaries demand protection, and should have it, and at such a juncture as this the power and importance of the nation should be felt and acknowledged. Our domestic politics here seem badiy mixed up. 1 do not believe Lord Palmerston holds office except on sufferance. It is expected that Mr. Gladstone will soon leave the Cabinet, followed Big John e Ruseell and Mr. Milner Gibeon. peculiar attitude of the House of Lords on the Paper bill, the growing unpopularity of the French treaty, and the increased expenses consequent upon the war in China—the eum of $90,000,000 being asked | for now—and other matters have all combined to throw upon Mr. Gladstone and his friends, including Mr. Gibson and Mr. Cobden, a responsibility and an odjum that the Teal tate of the case does not warrant. Mr. Gladstone doer pot deserve the present weight of his unpopularity and he 1s too independent to remain long the football of such circumstances—circumstances that he did not cre- ate apd cannot control. Affairs on the Continent look more and more warlike, and this adds to the Cabinet antl Parliamentary complica” tions here. 1 think nothing can keep Purope at ve months more, and it remains for Jobn Bull to ide who his friends shail be—a decision for which he does not appear to be im @ hurry.

Another change of plan s announces for the Galway line. It is now render- ed certain that her Majesty's government hare not con- sented, sod will not consent, to a tranefer of the line and the fervice to the Canada Company. It is a very sensible decision of theirs no one can doubt. What were the line and the contract projected for? Why, certainly for a first class, ewift, paddie wheel line from Great Britain to the United States, connecting Galway and the ports of New York and Boston. mplish that ‘low line of the cerrespondence (3. ,000 letters is between Great Critain’ ‘a the United to ae » commercial and social interests J Ne of the na- tion.

As the boat came in sight, and when near her landing, a greeting of welcome was extended to the Emmet Guard through the medium of a salvo of ar- tillery fired by company F, Fourth regiment of artillery, Captain McMahon. The military visiters were received on reaching the landing by the Irish Fusileers, company A, Sixty-ninth regiment, Captain H. C. Flood, accompanied by Manahan’s band. The egcort numbered one hundred and five men all told. Among those who assembled to wel- come the ‘‘ Emmets” were Michael Corcoran, the Em. mets will be quartered during their stay in New York.

The day was beautifal, and the trip down the harbor, and the view of Governor's | Island, Bediow’s Island, Raritan river, New Brighton, | Bergen Point and other interesting localities, were highly appreciated by all. The grove at Newark Bay was reached at twelve o'clock, but in consequence of the | low tide and the grounding of the steamboat, some time elapecd in the diserobarkation of the excursionists in tmal! bofts. This was all accomplisbel in the utmost order and without accident, after which the pleasure eceker® enjoyed themselves beneath the shady grove proximity to the Bay House, while others engé in terpsichorean festivities on the lawn and in a variety of other ipnocent amusements.

SPEECH OF MAYOR WOOD, Ber, Ren ae ‘There seems to be no good reason why the control,” democratic politica in this State should be monopolized by veteral politicians of the Dean Richmond and Peter Cagger school, nor why the fame and offices arising from Tammany Hall displays should be divided among sachems and venerable wirepullers. So, at least, think a number of ambitious youths in New York. They would like to make a splurge on their own account, get their name into the papers, and possibly get a chance of popping into some of the innumerable enug places that are unfortu nately at the disposal of the Executive. Such reflections ag these have led to the arganization of young men’s democratic associations; and now there is a rivalry be- tween them and their more antiquated coworkers ‘There is a Young Men’s Democratic Union Club, which bag roome in Union place; but that does not concern the object of the present writing. Its members are said to be for the most part, if not entirely, office holders. But be- sides that club there is another similar institution of more modorn birth, which dubs itself the ‘Young De- mocraty.”” The members of this organization are not office holders, though it is presumable that they would have no objection to be whenever an opportunity turns up—a rather bleak prospect for them just now. ‘Tt was 80 recently ag Apri) last that this important po- litical movement was set on foot by a few energetic young democrats, of whom Mr. J. Augustus Page, of New York, claims to hold the first place. While his claim to be the founder of the juvenile movement is generally con- ceded, there are many aspirants for the post of leader, Mr. Page, like many other originators, in all ages, finds his path beset with rivals, who envy his position, and think themselves more eminently calculated to discharge ita high functions. But such is ever the fate of genius. How the contest will end in this case “ time will tell,’ as the almanac makers eny. ~ But to proceed. The “ young democrats,” fired with zea) for the canse in which they have enlisted, have not tought to hide their light under bushel. They did not desire to restrict their beneficial influence to New York. “No pent up Utica reatrains their powers.’’ They would go forth and proclaim the gospe) of young democracy throughout the State, and throughout the whole land. And so at one of their irst;mectings it was resolved to ap- point a Young Men’s Democratic State Central Committee, and the thing beivg resolved uponf it was then and there carried into execution, and the following named persons were, by the meeting in question, ‘duly appointed” such committee — Hon, E.

LAWRENCE, Chairman. H.C. Pacn, Seoretary On the subsequent day, the 13th of June, the Commit- tee on Organization iesued a call for such Convention, de signating Saratoga as the place, and the 21st of July as the time, to hold the game. It is in pursuance of #uch cal) that the Young Men’s Democratic meets here to-day Tt ought to be remarked, before any further account of the “important political movement” is given, that the oung democracy sustain the comipations of Douglas and Jonnsen, while the Young Men's Democratic Union Clab manifest their preference for Breckinridge and Jane. ‘The Convention assembled n the large ball room of the United States Hotel, which was partially decorated for the drees ball that was to take place in the evening. The attendance of delegates was quite reapectable, there being probably a couple of hundred present. These, however, were not exclusively delegates, nor exclusively Douglas ‘men, for we noticed, among others, Mr. E.

The dre, it appears, originated on the fourth floor, which was unoccupied. The sudden bureting of the flames through the glase, and the fact that some paper, apparently eaturated with camphene, was blown into the treet partly on fire, leads to a belief that the conflagra- tion waa the work of a daring incendiary.

THE NOVELTY THE BALL LAST NIGHT, ke, Ree ae. Special Despatch to the New York Herald, Haurax, July 31, 1860, ‘The Prince rode out in plain costume yesterday after. noon, and received a drenching before he returned, bot he sat his horse as coolly in the rain ag at starting. At half-past seven he dined at the Goverument House, with Lord Mulgrave, and» party of forty-six ladies and gentlemen. 7 This morning, at eleven o'clock, the Prince left the Government House in the uniform in which he landed, and, in company with all the members of his suite, rode to the Common to review the troops in the garrison and the volunteers. He was received on all sides with enthu- siastic cheers from the immense concourse of people col+ lected round the fleld. ‘The troops consisted of the Sixty second and Sixty-third regiments, a company of engineers. and five volunteer companies of infantry and one of artillery. ‘When these had formed into line he rode past with his staff, and received them admirably, receiving the most. hearty cheers from the multitudes the whole way, which he acknowledged by repeatedly lifting bis cocked bat and Dowing. He then returned to where the royal standard hung from a staff, and the troops filed past with beautiful pre~ cision. He subsequently rode between the lines, appearing to- epjoy the whole amazingly. He was continually smiling and chatting with the ofti- cers near him, and he evidently likes being lionized. At twenty minutes to two he left the fleld amjd a salute from the volunteer artillery, which was the only fring that took place He next inspected the citadal, and returned to the Government House to luncheon, after which he returned tothe Common to witness the rustic sports, which were composed of the following raccs:— 1. Flat race, 500 yards, open to Nova Scotians only. 2. Flat race, 500 yards, open to all. 3. Flat race, 300 pee -ees not over eighteen or un der sixteen years of age. 4, Hurdle race, 200 yards—cight hurdles, three feet six inches—open to all. 5. Champion race, open to winners of the above. 6. Running bigh jump. 7. Running wide jump. 8. Vaulting. 9. Running 10. Climbing 11. Sack races, 12. Pes bee twenty-four pounds, open to all, 18. Dorow . sledge. und treacle. barrow blindfol'. INDIAN SPORTS. 10. Flat gace for Indians, 500 yards; the wicner can also ron champion race. 18. a Imdjaiwar dance. 19. Greased pig race. ‘The Indians in their sporte al) wore ther national cos- tume, and attracted much attention. The tribe of Mic- macs performed a war dance before him. Seven thousand people were assembled around him at this time. He laughed heartily at tho ludicrous games and ecenes, and appeared very much interested in the foot racing. He dined at balf-past ecven, with fifty gueste, at the Go- yernment House, The whole town and the fleet in the harbor aro bril liantly {lluvainated. The weather last evening was very wet, and the jiluminations in consequence were not ge- neral. The bal! in his honor at the Province Building is tho grand event to-night, and three thousand guests are ex- pected to be present. The ball and supper rooms are magnificent, and the lighting very brilliant. Yesterday and to-day have been kept as general boli- days, and no newspapers have been printed since Satur- day. The Prince arrived at the ball, accompanied by all the members of bis suite and Lord Mulgrave, at » fow minutes before ten he appeared ig his uniform, and looked remarkably well and good humored. He gave a recep- tion to all present in the ball room, and they paseed bim in single file, He danced afterwards with Mies Young, piece of the Premier, and the daughter of Mr’ Pilsbury, United States Coneul. He is a capi” tal waltzer and a very entertain partner. ‘The ball is a great success, and Albert Edward is in his glory. He evidently likes being lionized, and is fond of gayoty and excitement. It is amusing to observe the eyes of the ladies in the room and gallery watching his every movement and gesture, and casting envious glances at his fortunate partners, I heard more than one whieper, “What a beautiful dancer,” as he glided in the waltz. He reste his partner frequently, and fills up the interval with cheerful conversation and remarks upon tho company. His finest feature is his nose, which \s be- comingly prominent and pearly a Roman. The weather is beautifully foe aod all Halifax is ono grand carnival. Personal Intelligence. Jobn P.
