The Prince of Wales had reached England. The fleet had been detained by bad weather, and had only a week's provisions left. The latest advices report business at London as nearly suspended in consequence of the high rate of money, Cotton has declined on all descrip: tions. The steamship City of Baltimore, Capt. Petrie, from Liverpool on the 14th and Queenstown on the 15th inst., arrived at this port at half past two o'clock yesterday afternoon. Her advices are one cay later than previously received. We publish e'sewhere Garibaldi’s farewell ad- tress to the army upon resigning the Dictatorship. It is very patriotic and earnest, and concludes with the assarance that they would soon mect together again to achieve new conquesta. The Piedmontese were vigorously pushing the siege of Gaeta, with every prospect of speedy success. The rumored treaty of peace between the allied orees and China is contradicted. At lastaccounta negotiations had been suspended and the allics were marching upon Pekin. The steamship Matanzas, Captain Liesegang, om Matanzas on the 22d, arrived at this port last ening.

The elections, municipal, &c., were going on ind cansing no more than the usnal amount of ex- itement throughout the country. The steamship Alabama, which arrived from Savannah, (Ga., yesterday, brought back thirty-four steerage passengers, who, it is said, were not per- mitted to land—the same course being pursued in that city as in Charleston—al! steerage passengers being returned.

Captain Layfield reports that when his vessel had got twenty miles from Tybee bar, he found two men stowed away in one of the coal bunkers, The men represented that they had been unable to procure employment in Savannah, and had taken this method of returning hom Additional particulars of the terrific gale which swept over the lakes on Saturday are given else where. The loss to property and life can as yet be hardly esimated, but must be great. Seven- teen persons on board the propeller Jersey City were lost. The same fate has probably resulted to many others, the severity of the gale being un- paralleled. A meeting of republicans was held at Leaven. worth on Saturday evening to take into considera- tion the difficulties and dangers under which Kan- sas is now laboring. Resolutions denunciatory of the lawless violence of Montgomery and others were passed, and a determination expressed to upport the executive authorities of the Territory storing and preserving the public peace. Re ions were also passed denouncing the ac- n of the government in expelling squatters from the Indian lands. No further outrages by Montgomery are reported. Fort Scott had not Leen harmed nor Paris sacked, as stated in former advices. A detachment of Montgomery's had entered Fort Scott; but finding the gov officers had fled, they seemed satisfied. T) of Montgomery is said to have, been to break up the Court, so that some thirty of his friends in cus tody might escape justice. He was regularly en camped within five mi of Fort Scott.

The Meeting of Congress—Union Pro- gramme of Southern Conservatives. We are informed, through our telegraphic | advices from Washington, that with the meeting of Congress a conference of the Southern con- ; servative members thereof will be held, for the | purpose of devising, if possible, some new, comprehensive and satisfactory compromise for the preeervation of the Union and the restora- tion of harmony between the North and the South. Every patriotic citizen will approve this un- It criginstes in the right quarter. It will represent the great conservative body of the people of the South, and especially of | the border elave States, whose grievances | against their Northero aothalavery brethren are positive, oppressive and substantial. The Cotton States, in reality, suffer directly very | little from our Northern John Brown invasions, | abolition emissaries, underground railroads, | Jerry rescue mobs, and the anti-Fugitive Slave Jaw Personal Liberty bills of Northern Legisla- tures; but these things operate immensely to the demoralization of the slaves, the deprecia- tion of slave property, and to render life and society insecure and subject to constant alarms and dangere, and at any time liable to bloody disturbances. In the single item of the escape of slaves, via the underground railroad, Go- vernor Magoffin, of Kentucky, puts down the losses of the people of that State as amount- ing to not lees than $200,000 per annum The conservative representatives in Congress, therefore, from the border slave States, whose interests, Union or disunion, are and must be more immediately affected, for good or for evil, than any other portion of the South, may pro- perly undertake this important duty of arbitra- tion between the two sections for the mainte. nance of the Union. Of course the proposed conference will comprehend the Union mem- bers from every quarter of the South in which & member of this class may remain; but the right, we say, of initiating a compromise will properly attach to the border slave States. We understand, also, that Northern conservative members will be admitted to a participation in this proposed conference, and that when ma- tured, the propositions of compromise resulting from their joint deliberations will be laid be- fore the two houses. Such, as represented to us, is the programme contemplated in behalf of the conservative ele- ments of Congress to arrest these revolutionary Southern movements which threaten to destroy the Union, with the grand entrée of Abra- ham Lincoln into the White House. These questions then recur:—First, what are the grievances of the South against the North? And, secondly, what measures of atonement will suffice to arrest the Cotton States from the revolutionary act of secession? The South- ern States justly complain that the constitution of the United States, and the laws of Congress passed under it for the recovery of fugitive slaves, are outrageously trampled under foot- and that obedience to them, in many of the Northern States, is rendered a civil and criminal offence by State legislation. Our Southern brethren also complain that in every shape and form, by abolition mobs, conspiracies, emiasa- ries and agents, slaves are spirited away, not only from the officers of the law in the free States, but from the farms or plantations of their masters in the slave States, and that all these offenders and offences against the constitution are directly or indirectly encouraged by the local authorities of the Northern States. ‘These are among the grievances of the South, and there can henceforth be no peace between the two eections until they are remedied. But suppose that every State of the North should by New Year's day repeal all these offensive local laws, and provide for the fullest enforce ment of the Fugitive Slave act; forthe moet stringent pains and penalties against abolition emissaries and agents intermeddling in any way to the prejudice of slave property, and for full compensation to the master for every fugitive or kidnapped slave escaping through any free State to Canada, would that safice to save the Union’ Perhaps not; but let the Northern States be brought to these con: cessions, and they will be in a proper frame of mind to do something more. The frst thing demanded is the absolute sus pension of Mr. Seward’s “irrepressible con- flict,” and the recognition by the North of the rights of our Southern slaveholders to their slave property, wherever it may be found with- in the limits of the Union. That point concad- ed by each of the Northern States, even Maesa- chusetts will be ready for the next proposition, | which is that the Southern States, in bebalf of | their institution of slavery, are entitled to such | additional checks and balances in the general | government as may be necessary to render them hereafter eecure againat Nortbera anti- slavery parties and popular majorities, This proposition will, of course, comprehend a re construction of the organic law of the Union, and ® new constitutional convention of all the States to do this important work. It is proba- ble, too, that this very proposition may emanate from thie approaching Congressional confe- rence, and it may be suggested in the Presi- dent's annual message. To carry any proposition of this sort through Congress, some assistance will be needed from the republican members. Bat can we expect any euch co-operation from the republican par- ty in Congress! We cannot say ; but we know that this party must prepare at once to co-ope- tate with the conservatives of the North and the South to maintain the Union, or that it will NEW YORK HERALD, WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 28, 1860. be destroyed with the dlsrupture of the Calon. ‘This party, in brief, which has reached the elec- tion of & President upon ite “one idea” of the abolition of Soutbern clavery, must abandon that destructive idea before the 4th of March, or the inauguration of “Honest Abe Lincoln” may prove to his devoted followers only “a mockery, # delusion anda snare,” barren of spoils and plunder to expectant lobby jobbers, and fruitful only of the terrible elements of revolution. Garibsidi's Farewell to His Companions im Arms—The Remaining Problems of the Italiam Question, The City of Baltimore brings ua the procla- mation of Victor Emanuel to the people of the ‘Two Sicilies and Garibaldi’s farewell to the army. It will be seen that the latter regards the ceparation as only temporary, as indeed évery one must feel it tobe. The independence of Italy is but half worked out, and worse ob- etacles than apy that have hitherto opposed its consummation have yet to be surmounted. Garibaidi’s present withdrawal from the scene is, however, a wise move on the part of the Italian patriota, Nothing will tend more to disconcert and embarrass the plans of the French Emperor. There can be no doubt, from his recent addi- tions to his troops in Rome and its neighbor hood, that he speculated on the fulfilment of the Dictator’s pledge to proclaim Victor Emanue) King of Italy from the Quirinal. Had the at- tempt been made there must bave been a col lision between the patriots and the French They were as near as poasible coming to blows in the harbor of Gaeta, and but for the wari- ness of the Sardinian Admiral, Persano, blood would certainly bave been ebed between them. We can judge, from the avoidance of al! explanation on the part of the French of their unaccountable conduct on that occasion, how urgent must have beso the motive that dic- tated it, and how desirous they must now be to create some pretext for the continued occupa tion of Rome and the adjacent towns. It was on the Papal question and on the rashnesa of Garibaldi and his associates that un- questionably hinged the French combinations. Their prudence and appreciation of the danger have saved them from the trap laid for them. The Emperor will now bave to arrange hia Roman programme witheut the aid of any indiscretion in that quarter, and, what is more important, without the Italians being in any way committed to it. But Italy must, sooner or later, have Rome for her capital. In the aggregation of States of which ber new kingdom is composed, it is the only city that can assert and maintain an imperial rank. The jealousies that would be inspired by the selection of Turin, Florence or Naples would result in controversies which would ultimately take the form of sectional feuds such as @re now agitating our own country. All the Italian populations would willingly acknowledge the title of the Eternal City to metropolitan rank. The possession of Rome is, therefore, both as a matter of senti- ment and convenience, a strong necessity to the new kingdom. There are, however, some serious obstacles to its attainment. The future territorial status of the Papacy bas to be settled, and the designs of France in connection with it secertained. To force the elucidation of either would have been @ great mistake on the part of the Italian patriets. They pursue a wiser policy in awaiting the couree of events, and casting upon Louis Napoleon the responai- bility of a violent interference with their wishes. In the meanwhile, though they may be de- barred from fixing the seat of government within the walls of the Eternal City, there is nothing to prevent them building ‘a new Rome in its neighborhood. At various periods of Italian history, from political and other causes, this was contemplated. The site of the old city is anything but salubrious, and it would be ae well that this fact should be taken into con- sideration in the selection of a capital for the new kingdom. There is within a few miles of Rome, just beyond the Campagna, and forming the first rising slope of the Alban Hills, an admirable site for a new capital— the Campo di Annibale. It ia one of the healthiest spots around Rome, and is a favorite reeort for invalids when affected by the miasma of the marshes. Here the Italian capital could be built under the old imperial designation, whilst the ancient city might be left to the Pope os a sort of Barnum’s Museum, with privilege to levy @ toll upon sightseers by way of revenue. There may never be occasion, however, for the realization of these speculations. The vote of the Romans may be allowed to decide the Papal question. The principle established in favor of the rest of Italy cannot be decently violated in their regard. The right of popular election has received the solemn sanction of the world. France inaugurated it in the choice of ber Emperor; Italy has consecrated it by her blood, and England has confirmed it by her de- clarations. In the presence of such facts the opporition of the despotic governments avails nothing. By their inaction they passively admit the force of the new doctrine which is to sway the destinies of the world, and await in trembling its application to their own systems. Argoros or Tuat Littte Jaranese Ac- count.—It appears that even our Aldermen are not quite impervious to the force of public opinion. The virtuous Starr, the incorruptible Brady and the calumniated Genet have joined in tremendous effort to whitewash themselves in the matter of the Japanese bills. Brady saye that the committee appointed to examine the accounts had only one meeting, and then the bills bad not all come in. Is it not quite time this committee had another meeting’ Starr offered a resolution for buncombe, and then made a speech about a mile long for him. telf. Starr made mincemeat of Massa Greeley, and chopped up eundry other journalists in the moet approved Jefferson Market style. Genet followed with @ general attack upon the news- papers, Starr then withdrew his resolution, and the whole matter stands as before. Now, while we revere Brady, adore Starr and love Genet, we must be permitted to remark that all we want from them, at this particular junctare, is the bill, the whole bill, and nothing but the bill. We want what Mr. Mantilini would call the “demnition total,” and we want all the itema, with the vouchers annexed. It is time the bills were paid, and they will grow no shorter by standing any longer, We want facts and Sgures, not rhetorical fgures, but vulgar arithmetical dollars and ceats figures.

Just at this moment, as we have already had the honor to remark, we want nothing from B., B. & Co. but the bills. Hurry up, gentlemen; let Gree- ley go to perdition his own way. He was past praying for long ago. Give us the items. The people who have done the work want their money, and it is high time they were paid. The British im the Flowery Land—John Bull Versus John Chinaman. We will turn aside from the dangers of seces- sion, end the exciting events which are still going forward in Italy, to glance at that portion of the far Orient where the hostile fleets of Eng- land and France lie in waiting for the foe. The garrison of the Peiho forts, in the recent hard fought, dearly bought victory which led the way for the Allies to Tien-tsin, have proved that the Chinese army is anything but the horde of poltroons which Englishmen at home and their contemptuous countrymen at Hong Kong have hitherto arrogantly and unwarrantably declared them to be. The present war etands out in marked con- trast with the old, easy successes of the British in the Canton river, which shows that China in the North is no such contemptible enemy as China ia the South. The sweeping inferences drawn from the firet Chinese war were singularly unjust; for, considering the weapons the Chinese had to defend themeelvee with, against the powerful messengers of death used by their as- sailants, they acted with bravery, and showed their good sense by running away at the proper time. But the Celestials have now improved so far in the art of war that they can fight British troops without flinching from the fray, and that notwithstanding the disadvan- tages under which they labor in point of the means of both offence and defence. Indeed, it would be difficult to produce from the whole roll of history an instance where such courage has been displayed under such adverse circum- stances as in the case of the heroes of the pig- tail during the passage of the enemy up the Peiho. We have only to imagine that murder- ous instrument, the Armstrong shell—tried there for the first time, and directed by well disciplined soldiers—pouring its torrent of de- struction against men armed only with bows and arrows and gingalls, in order to perceive a remarkable disproportion in the respective forces. It is doubtful whether any cavalry io Europe could be brought to face such a sudden, unexpected and fatal implement of war; and yet the brave Tartars, when these missiles of death fell among them, not only etood their ground, but ran forward to close in a hand to hand combat. At the forts their dead encumbered the ground by hundreds, the victims of shot and shell, but they defended their positions with a resistance which would have done credit to the Malakoff or any other well manned European stronghold, and they were only ultimately stormed after considerable loss amd labor. Who can do otherwise than congratulate the Chinese and their neighbors, the Tartars, upon this valiant conduct? Even the British people and the Bri- tish government will esteem and respect them more for it than they have ever done before. There was in all this no lack of strategy on the part of the opposing generals, or of gallantry in the men, or of ekill in the artillerists. There was simply a grand resistance by the Chinese of aeplendid combination of courage and mili- tary strength. The English government will learn by this that Chinese wars are not exactly the profitable measures that they at first calculated upon: and be apt to think twice in future before they decide in favor of anything 60 disas- trons. The British only redeemed their preliminary failure by a victory involving a greater proportionate loss than was suffered in apy battle fought during the Russian war, besides several millions of money uselessly squandered, a damaged fleet, ‘and beiag under an obligation to the French for assistance. Moreover, there is no prospect of any future war being more successful than this one, nor yet #0 much #0, for the Chinese are profiting by the lessens in warfare afforded them by the allies; and their well known faculty for imitation will enable them in the course of time to produce something equal to, if not'more deadly than, the Armstrong artillery. And those Tartar hosts, which have already twice overrun the world, and which the Emperor can enlist at his plea- sure, are dangerous men to combat. By the Arago and City of Baltimore we learn that the allied army had reached Yang- tsin-Yeh, on their march on Pekin, where a large native force had mustered to defend the city. Lord Elgin left Tien-tsin on September 8, for Pekin, according to the latest authen- tic intelligence, but {it was subsequently rumored in London that peace had been concluded at Pekin by the English and French Ambassadors and the Emperor of China. It is not likely, however, that. if in receipt of official despatches to that effect, the British government would withhold their purport from the public. The question of money and unity of understanding would even, if all else went well with the Allies, be likely to delay the ettlement of negotiations beyond the date of the last English mail from China. Retr Laporners From Tux Sovru — There is a good desl of excitement aroused about the laborers and others who have recent- ly returned from the Southern ports by our stesmers, and it has been sought to establieh the idea in some quarters that they have been expelled because they came from the North, and so forth, We publish in our advertising columns today proclamation from the Mayor of Savannah, Georgia, which seta forth the true cause of the return of these people. The fact is that they went Sith in search of em- ployment, which they could not get here in consequence of the hardness of the times, the dulness of trade and the partial cessation of manufacturing business; but they found that there was no more demand for their servioes in Southern than in Northern cities, from the very same causes, and they were advised to retura, many of them, too, having their passage money back paid for them by the authorities or bene. volent private citizens. Naturally enough, the Southern people did not wish to be burthened with any more unew- ployed population than they have already; wad if the present aspect of affairs does not change— if trade continues to fall off, both North and South, ae it certainly will if the secession movement goes on--it is notonly our own white laborers and mechanios who qill be re tursing to us, but the free negroes of the South will be turning their faces in this direction to look for work. The slaves will of course be taken care of in any event; but the free ne- groes in the Southern States—and they number some three hundred thousand—cannot be pro- vided for at bome; hence they will come here, to a very great extent, for a means of living. Where are they to go to, and how are they to be provided for? They cannot be permitted to starve, or become outlaws or paupers. These are serious questions to be solved. There is no employment for them in New York; the border States cannot or will not maintain them, and many of the Western States have passed laws prohibiting free negroes from living within their borders at all. Clearly, then, they must go to New England in search of work, and that is their legitimate destina- tion; for it was there this movement, which may make their emigration a necessity, origi- nated; it is there the largest amount of sym- pathy with their race exists. In the New Eng- land States they will be surrounded by their best friends, who will no doubt take good care of them, and see that they do not want for the comforts of life. This is another evil which may arise from the political condition of affairs, and it has been overlooked hitherto. We may confidently expect a large immigration of free negro laborers, and they will have to be provided for by the New England States. GeveraL Scorr Waxtep at WasnincToy.— It will be seen by a despatch from Washington in another column that the President and Cabi- net are very anxious for the presence of Gen. Scott at the federal capital during the coming seesion of Congress, but that, owing to sudden indisposition, the General is compelled to de- cline the visit, and it has been so signified to Gov. Floyd. [t is unfortunate that the veteran commander-in-chief should not be able to go on just now; but it appears that he has been ailing ever since his return from the island of San Juan, his long confinement on shipboard having affected bis health materially. The counsels of Gen. Scott might be of great moment at this critical juncture of affairs, for he is wise and cool, and has been hitherto very successful in conducting measures of pacifica- tion upon various questions. The probability ia that he would give some very important ad- vice to the Cabinet at this moment, when his experience is of the greatest value, and we trust that his health may so far improve as to enable him to fulfil the wishes of the administration in this respect.
