An American lady, Madame Jessie Mario White, wife of one of Garibaldi’s lieutenants, is spoken of in terms of the highest eulogy im Italy, This brave hearted lady went to Rome in the midal of the hostilities in order to vender assistance to the wounded, and specially to ‘watch over the body of Rico Cairol!, who, with his three brothers, risked and lost their lives in the cause of Italian Independence. Toe Toulonnais says that the French general who com- manded at Mentana was greatly surprised to ind young jads of fifteen among his prisoners, and that he remon- Sstraied with them. ‘<Genéral/’ replied one of these youthful soldiers, ‘it 1s never too soon te learn how to do well.” The Emperor Napoleon and M. Haussmann disagree ‘om the subject of the custom dues enforced at all the gates of Paris on merchandise entering the city, His Majesty has been strongly impressed by the remonstran- ees laid before him from various branches of trade, and fa anxious to make concessions in favor of free trade to the metropolis. Mr. Bernal Osborne addressed bis constituents at Not- tingbam. He satirized the remarkable conversion of ‘the tory party to liberal principles with humor. He, however, denied that the reform bill passed during the Just session was settlement of the question. He said he should insist vpon the fullest explanations from the government before agrecing to the Abyssinian estimates, The Foreign Minister of Italy addressed a circular to the diplomatic agents abroad explaining the develop- ment and state of the Roman question, His memoran- dum enlightens thy Powers on tho Roman question, and ‘@nables them te decide whether it will suit them to ac- cept or not the proposal of France to meet in conference, The King of Italy signed a decree allotting fifty tbou- @and francs to bo distributed in aid of the wounded in the Roman expedition and of the families of the killed. Quite a namber of workmen remained on “strike” in Oxtord, England, and further breaches of the peace wore anticipated. Large numbers of citizens were Sworn in as special constables, asd the volunteers en- rolled themselves for the prevention of riot, Two com- panies of tho Guards were expected from Windsor. The shops wore closed and business entirely suspended, A lator despatch says, that a company of one hundred aad twenty-one Grenadier Guards arrived at Oxford. Several ‘thousand persons congregated in the streets, but no serious riot occurred. The windows of the police station and some of the bakers were broken, The Mayor read ‘the riot act and appealed to the populace to disperse, as he did not wieh to call out the military. Four hundred @pecial constables, and the military with arms piled, were ready for emergencies, Summonses were issued fora meeting of the English @abinet Ministors at the Earl of Derby's private resi- dence, in London.

How the Burden is Effected by Tariff Pro- tections, {From the London Times, Nov, 13.) The public debt of the United States is officially re- turned at 2,630 million dollars—tbat ts, about 520 mil- lions sterling of our money. That it should stand at so large a Dgure two years anda half after the complete termination of the war may be a disappointment to the sanguine fuanciers of the Union, but is no more than was fore‘cen by lookers-on, The accumulation of such a debt in four years and the difficulty of dealing with it are terrible novelties to the American mind, which has faced many impossibilities, but not till now tho task of repaying @ real debt ‘of old European propor- tions, Nor is the task made more agreeable by the reflection that a high tariff, which was a principal cause of the war. has fecome its pnn- cipal consequence. The European mind has poy thoroughly educated and inured to debt. We find our- selves scarcely able to separate indebtedness from our simplest notion of a civilized and respectable State. We all owe more or less, generally more rather than and any State here enjoys a character for solvency which goes on paying ite dividends without having to borrow for the purpose. If it can do this, the sum total of its obligations can be left to the attention of posterity. For even more dofiaite reasons we are able to offer substantial comfort to the United States, Our own debt, instead of being a little over five sundred millions, stands, after half a century of economy aad sinking funds, at eight hundred miliions. This debt has to be paid out of a territory that can- not be increased, and from resources limited to that area, instead of out of the continent which the United States are rapidiy overranning and absorbing. It must be added that by far the greater of the American debt is in terminable annuities. It wili expire of itself ina few years without the aid of national debt com- missioners. Then, four hundred and sixty million dol- lars—about ninety millions in i Loong ~~ Ameri. can debt bears only currency in! 18, therefore, lighter and more tractable, Nore than four hundred million dollars—about eighty miilions in our money— bears no iterest, and is, ip fact, hada aod currency of the Union, which, it aj keeps afloat moch more of the circulating than we do, Further, against the total debt must be put more than one hundred million dollars of coin, and more than thirty millions of currency, in the Treasury, which, im effect, bring the dept, jess cash, under five hundred miliion Britist pounds sterliog. The annual in- terest payable on such a debt in this country would be about sixteen millions sterling. The annual interest on the American debt is considerably more than twice that sum, because it is not only interest, it is also repayment of capital, and while it is paid the debt is paid tuo. Con- sidering what wo paid, and aro still paying, and shall \ our children to pay for the pleasure of taking our part in a continental settlement which has long since vanished and left not a wrack behind, we may consider that the Americans have bought the last keystone of their Union arch cheaply. Even at the present rate, and with acertain degree of disappointment, they are not unlikely to pay of their debt in twenty years, But the shoe pinches. The Americans are not used to debt, They never liked rent; they know nothing of tithes or fines, and they have always associated high taxation with despotism, oligarcnies and established churches. The Union ts most laudably, and thus far rafiexibly, detertained to pay ita debt to the last dollar; bust this can only be done by distributing the burden as evenly as possible. That is evidently the leading idea of the tariff, and we are not sure that it has not been carried further than could be prescribed Gnanc:al cunning of these older tries, however, there must be in the United m in everything else; and it pf uk § $ 5 E H 4 H i i : an inequality it w ig A on inabeien found im the immense duties uj goods, out of all proportion te thoes of home sansefustare’ ‘We beg (he Americans to do us a small tri! in this matter.

Turkey refuses to listen to further inter- cession on bebalf of her subjects, and the ground she upon—as summed up in our correspondent’s letver—ought to seem unassailable to all who think that, for Tark as well as for Christian, there ougnt to be only One weight and one measure. It would seem that the plain and pithy language of the Divan has not been ‘without efiect, for Russia, followed by Prussia, France and Italy, has betaken herself to new tactics; she en- gages, henceforth, to desist trom her friendly and disin- terested sive and slows apg to follow Lon own licy, simply conveying with a parting word an Pmincus warning, that “she will have to take the conse- jwences, i We hardly know whethor Turkey bas any reason to feel reassured by this specious declaration. The more than open war that Greece carries on against her by means of blockade runners, the preparations which are being made for more active hostilities on the opening of spring, and the passage offered to Cretan Ep eg the vessels of neutral powers, ‘‘when neither it lives nor their property are in the least danger,” are as een 4 argument’ in support of the assertion of the Turk! government that ‘the Christian powers, when dealing ‘with the Ottoman Empire, set aside their precept of doing to others what they wish that others would do to ¢hem.’’ If the Turk is not to be puton a footing of equality with the Christian im all matters connected With international faw, we can have no reason to wonder if he shows little disposition to place his Christian subjects on a footing of equality with his Mussulmans in what concerns his own national law.

Muxico Crry, Nov. 10, 1867. ‘Threatened earthquakes or pronunciemientos, an Aus- trian Admiral rappipg at the door ef Mexico for the body of Maximilian, the coming together of the ap proaching Congress, all find Juarez and his Cabinet com- paratively undisturbed, and though money is scarce and creditors are plenty, time passes and history unrolls its page. As in Washingtos city, 0 in Mexico, Congress soon meets; and already we have among us very many of the elect, who are to almost immediately figore in the Mezi. can arena, We shall record the Pitts, the Clays and the Websters of this august body, whose great op- portunity has, however, been lost to them by a decree of amnesty issued a few days since by President Juarez and his Cabinet, As hinted in my last letter the ex- pression of several prominent and influential Mexicans, at a late banquet given by the government to Mr. Quentén Quevedo, Minister and Envoy from Bolivia, was eo strongly in favor of clemency to the conquered, that it occurred to your correspondent at once, who was present, that President Juarez would make a very strong potnt by immediately deciaring a generous amnesty— thereby placing bimself properly before the world asa man of humane impulses, and at the same time forestall the coming Congress in its probable action upon this subject. We feel sure that this proclamation of am- nesty has done and will do mpch to abate the fury of such of the foreign press as have for several months been berating this republican leader. ‘There now remain but eighteen political prisoners in this city, and the number of mulitary prisoners who are imprisoned in various parts of thé country are daily be- coming less, Weregret to have to record that Padre Fischer, who served as private secretary to the late |. Maximilian, remaias among the civil and political prisoners, it should be a Cause of regret that so many of the false friends of Mexico and of Maximilian should have escaped from the prison, under this decree, while Padre Fischer, who is actaally entitled to his pardon also under it should be retained, while the more fortu- mato ones escape to Europe and other countries, there to distort facts in regard to Mexico and to belie the truest friends of the Emperor, The trust reposed in Father Fischer by the late Maximilian, who, by a notarial act, amply witnessed, made him custodian and editor of the documents which accumulated during and eyen previous to the rule of the Archduke in Mexico, is one in which this country is especially interested, since the publication of these documents will bear most severely upon the part which Napoleon and Bazaine played in the drama, and but lightly, if at all, upon the present government, Not- withstanding the apparent injustice vo one who had the confidence of the late Maximilian, and who, therefore, had yery many mies among those who frequented the palace for the purpose of imposing upon the easily persuaded Emperor, and thereby tilling their pockets— notwithstanding this, we must contend that by this re- cent decree of President Juarez he set a worthy example to all nations who even boast of an excess of civilization and cant about tho barbarity of Mexico. But a very few months have passed since the occupation of the capital, and nearly all of those captured with arms in their hands contending against liberal Mexico have been forgiven, forgotten or peruritted to leave the country. Those who still are held as prisoners, it will be seen b; the decree, have had the term materially diminished, ry probability that those who preach ‘Murderous Mexico’? will soon be met by the argument of another amnesty, more sweoping and probably inciuding all who were identified with the late empire. Asl imformed you by telegram several days since, satisfactory credentials arrived here from Austria by the English steamer, and accordingly the body of Maxi- milian will be surrendered to Admiral Tegethoff, It was yesterday informally turned over to bim. To-morrow the government will convey it to Vera Cruz under a proper and strong escort, aud at that point the Ginal pa- pors and receipt for the body will pass between the Admiral and the representative of the government, which will end tbe historic page of the intervention in Mexico.

Isend it to you in Spanish, as I canmot translate myself, and yet I am told by those who have read it and understand it that it contains some hint of a feeling on the part of the late Emperor, in regard to the execution of prisoners, directly opposed to that attributed to him by those who attach biame to him for the October 3 decree. The bumanity of the late Emperor is clearly made manifest, and I trust, through the publication of this letter, you will be willing to do justice to the memory of one who is not with us to defend himself, How I became pos- sessed of this letter it is not necessary for the reading public to know, Querétaro is regaining itself as rapidly as the condition of our purses and the confidence of the people will ad- mit, We were all surprised, knowing how popular the Emperor was in Querétaro, to see what a large vote was polled bere for Benito Juares, We almost begin to believe that Mexican people have no opinion, at least not as we foreigners are in the habit of using the term, Mexico, Feb, 1867.

The health of General Mejia being improved, his services will be of the greatest importance, and your Majesty will put toa good use the energy of General Vidaurri. We are fully convinced that the speedy remission of funds is of the greatest poe ne for the successful issue of the campaign, at this very moment, in accordance with your Majerty’s orders, the Minister of the Treasury is busy in getting together the greatest possible amount of bills of exchange payable at sight, and which he will forward to-morrow in’ the manner ‘our Majesty ordered.
