eOHriLED XTXRT SAT VOB ITSI0 TwlMWAPH,
The Reyeise Soflered by the Italian Army.
From me Timet.
America, In common with the great propor
tion of the civilized world, sympathizes deeply
with Italy in her efforts to gain Yenetia and
to establish a national unity throughout the
whole peninsula.
The late defeat, to our eyes, has something ot
the character of the early defeats of the North in
our civil war. It resulted, without doubt, from
rashness and an undervaluing of the strength
of the enemy. With all the opportunities ot the
Italians to cut the communications of the Aus
trian force, either on the Adriatic, between
Trieste and Venice, or on the slopes of the Alps,
between Tyrol and Venetia, holding the sea as
they do, and able .to attack where they will, It
certainly eeem, even with our imporiect know
ledge ot the lacts, a piece of extraordinary foul
hardinebS to make the Drat essay on that fainuus
line of earthworks and fortresses which the
Austrians have spent years in making impreg
nable. 80 tar, too, as we can gather from the brief
accounts, they seemed to have followed in
another unloriunate respect our early example.
One corps was thiown out in the air atari doubled
up before the two others could assist; the enemy
issuing lrom any point la the Quadrilateral
which suited them, and able, if repulsed, to
retreat to their fastnesses.
We are not prepared, of course, as yet to lurlge
where precisely the tault was, but from the well
known temperament ot the Kin ot Italy, we
may reasonably conclude that the defeat was the
result ot rashnexs by the Italians.
But whatever was lost on that unfortunate
Sunday, even the Austrian despatches agree
that it was not honor. The King's troops fought
long and bravely against superior numbers,
and a part of the time against tort i tied position-.
There was no rout or flight at the eud. T heir
losses in men will soon be made up by new
enlistments. The only question which will arise
will be, how far do the Italians as a people possess
that hicrhest quality of manhood, which only
derives strength lrom disaster and gains courage
from defeat.
We may, without undue praise of our own
nation, recall, at this time, that the most glo
rious era, for the North, of our war, was not
the time of our victories, but the hours of our
defeats. All can remember when a new disaster,
though thiowing a cloud of gloom over ten
thousand families, only gave no nerve to the
resolution of the people, ana thousands who
were indifferent to ibe national cause when vic
torious, pressed lorward eagerly to Join it when
under inislorcune and defeat.
We, Americans Colts and Saxons and Nor
mans in one perhaps with undue vanity
esteem this resolution under discouragement,
this pertinacity against obstacles, and pluck
amid deleats, as the peculiar quality ot our
mixed race. We have that slow-working but
tenacious temperament which only truly and
warmly embraces a cause when it begins to
meet with hindrances ami disasters. It re
mains to be seen whether the Latin race, in its
representatives, the Italians, has the same
tough and enduring quality. We all know
their Southern hie and enthusiasm; have
they also the Northern obstinacy and tenacity ?
We incline to the belief that the national en
thusiasm is so aroused now throughout Italy,
that this defeat will only fire the courage of
the people with new ardor. They have delibe
rately and with full knowledge cast in their
all in this gigantic struggle with the enor
mous power of Austria. It is the effort of
Italy to be a nation. It is a struggle
for the gem of Italy, the ancient Queen ot the
Adriatic, to regain libprty and nationality for
the Italians under Austrian tyranny, to advance
education and all liberal ideas among the
people, to bring Rome under the temporal
power of the kingdom, and redeem the whole
peninsula from the power of the foreigner and
the priest. It this Btrugele be successful, Italy
becomes then a European power on an advanced
and liberal basis, emancipated from France as
as well as Austria and Home. She joins the
ranks of the nations moving on in the path of
modern progress. By one brief and bitter effort
the throws off the burdens of ages, and hence
forth, freed from the hostile Quadrilateral and
French dependence, she can dispense with
armies, and the whole energies of the people
will be directed to the meanB of production and
the arts of peace. To gain such a result, no
bargains such as the Loudon Times recommends
will be of any use. Fighting, and only fighting,
can give her a true independence can create
respect at home and respect abroad.
But to gain all this' she may well afford to
offer the lives and treasure of a whole genera
tion. Such baptisms of blood as that a few
days since near Verona are terrible, but they
may be the necessary consecration lor a great
and dignitied national career.
An Italy freed, united, and regenerated need
not regret any pi ice paid, whether in the lives of
brave men or the voluntary offerings from, the
means ot the whole people.
We incline to believe that there Is that fire of
patriotism now among the Italian people that
passion lor nationality and independence which
no defeat will discourage. Against such forces
even all the forces of the Austrian empire will
be of no avail in the long run. Defeat will
turn into victory, and victory will at length
bring independence to Italy.
The War in Europe.
From the Tribune.
The battle in Italy has been followed by
another in Bohemia, and again, we are informed,
the Austrians have been victorious. We know,
however, as yet, but little ot the locality and
the Importance of the battle. The brief des
patches received by the City of London mention
two engagement on the 2Gth of June one at
Turnau, in which the Prussians claim to have
taken 600 prisoners, and another near Skalitz,
between Nachod and Keustadt, which com
menced at 10 o'clock In the morning and ended
in the retreat of the Prussians, who left their
killed and wounded upon the field. A later des
patch merely adds: "The Prussians have been
defeated in Bohemia." This seems to refer to
the engagement at Skalitz, though it is, of
course, not certain. No information has as yet
been received as to the imuortance and conse
quences of the defeat of the Prussians.
A step which mav have tar-reaching conse
iuences has been taken by the King of Italy.
He has requested the assistance of Francs, offer
ing to Louis Napoleon in exchange the Inland of
Wardlnia, in addition to important concessions
in the Soman question. Louis Napoleon has
never concealed his deep sympathy with Italy
la her efforts to liberate Venetia, nor does any
one doubt his design to ubc the present comili
cations for the aggrandizement ot France. An
offer like that lust made to him by Italy must,
therefore, prove a powerful temptation. Nor is
this all. It may be regarded as certain that
offers in exchange for assistance have been
made by Prussia no less than by Italy. One
town in the Rhenish Provinces has. in par
ticular, been mentioned as being proposed,
together with the adjoining aistrict, which con
tains very valuable coal ueiaa, as the price or
French-Prussian alliance.
It is. of course, certain that, if Austria should
continue to be successful in the field, both Italy
and Prussia will become more urgent in their
solicitations of French assistance, and more
liberal in their offers of compensation. Austria
is aware ot the new danger that Impends over
her, and will, therefore, proceed in the pur
suit or the war witn the utmost caution, acting,
at least with regard to Italy, culafly on the
defensive.
The prospective alliance between Franoe.Ualy,
and PrasMa is not tbe only new danger which
threatens Austria. It is reported that one of
the treat political parties ot Hungary the radi
cal ''Resolution party" Is in favor of aa Imme
diate insurrection for the purpose of re-establishing
the independence or their country. The
Deak partv, It Is said, would prefer to wait until
a defeat of the Austrians by Italy and Prussia;
but if the other party should boldly raise tbe
etaLdardof independence, it is not probable that
tbe liberals ot the Desk party will fight for
Austria against their own countrymen. The
revolutionary party Is said to have extensive
ramifications in Croatia, Dalmatla, and Illyrla.
The condition of Croatia, in particular, appears
to be so alarming to tbe Austrian Government
that the whole province has been declared in a
stale of siege An extensive insurrection in
Hungary at this time would be a terrible blow
to the very existence of the Empire, and it would
seem to be almost impossible to parry it under
the present circumstances.
It should, however, be taken Into considera
tion, on the other hand, that an actual offer of
Italian or German land to France will produce
the most Intense indismation among all political
parties of Italy and Germany. The cession of
feavoy Hnd Nice almost produced a revoluttm In
Italy, and the offer of Sardinia will be even
more offensive to the Italians, for Savoy speaks
French and was claimed by France on the
ground of the nationality principle; but the
cession of Sardinia would be a glaring violation
of the Fame principle which has prompted Italy
to ongngo In tbe present war, and which Franco
Invokes to lustily her sympathies with Italy.
Neither in Italy nor in OtrruuiiT could a cession
ot territory to France be made without violent
opposition.
The rrogiess of the Germ an War.
from the World.
Thanks to the eminently chaotic character
of tho tclcgTams which are sent to us from Eng
land and the continent concerning the positions
and the movements of the two great German
armies, two different engagements which oc
curred between the advanced posts of the Prus
sians and the Austrians at points far apart, the
one from the other, have been rolled into one;
and we arc informed that the repulse of the
Italians from the Quadrilateral has been tol
lowed by an important Austrian victory in Bo
hemia. The news by the City of London indicates
neither a victory nor a buttle of importauce.
It does not even prove that the Prussians were
really moving lorward upon an invasion of
Bohemia.
roin Pardubitz, a small aud pretty city,
which is situutcd iu the eastern part of Bohemia,
aud from which tbe lines of runway run north
ward to Reicnenbneb, we-tward to Prague, and
southward to Vicuna, we bear of an artillery
duel between the Prussians and Austrians.
This artillery duel is reported to have occurred
between the towns oi Neut-tult and Nacuod,
and to have ended with the retreat of the
Prussians, the Austrian cavalry coming info
the action at tbe town ot Skalitz. Of these
towns, Neustadt and Nachod lie almost directly
upon the frontier ot Silesia, and Skalitz is not
above twelve mils distant lrom the sums fron
tier. It is clear, therefore, that the reported
engagement must have resulted rather lrom a
Prussian reconnoissunce in loice than from
any serious advance ot the army of Prussia
into Bohemia upon tbe western frontier of
Silesia. On tbe same day with this action, the
2Gth ot June, another, and to all appearances,
a fcimilar action is reported to have occurred at
Paka, near Tumau, a point more than fifty
miles to the northwest ot the scene of the en
gagement at Skalitz. The telegraph confounds
these two affairs, and ot them both makes up a
single "battle in Bohemia." At Turnau, we are
told that one division and one brigade, being
about n'ne tnousand men, probably, of the
Prussian army, were engaged, and that three
Prussian officers tell ou the held. From the
Bimultaneousness of the two affairs, and from
the positions of Skalitz and Turnau relatively
to each other, and to the Saxon and Silesia n
frontiers now occupied by the Prussian troops,
it is possible tnat me connicts may nave re
sulted lrom an Attempt on the partot the Prus
sians to break up the Bohemian railway line be-
ween iteicnenDurn ana raratiDitz.
Another, and stiil more confused and absurdly
stated telerram gives us a hint of what may
prove, perhaps, to be the most important light
we nave as yet baa on tne purposes ana move
ments of the Austrian army in Bohemia. The
Prussians are stated in this telegram to have
destroyed "the railway bridge between Werdau
and Uossnitz, at Altenburg." Tlita is about as
rational as a telegram would be announciug
that the railway bridge had been . destroyed
between New York aud Stamford, at Bridge
port! Altenburg is a prosperous little Saxon
uy in the extreme west oi saxony, ana
Werdau and Gossni'.z are small manu
facturing towns, lying both of them several
miles to the south ot Altenburg t The signifi
cance of the information thus inaccurately con
veyed to us, consists in the tact that Altenburg,
Gossnitz, and Werdau all lie on the railway
line from Leipsic, in Saxony, to Nuremberg, in
Bavaria. If the Prussians are destroying bridges
on this line, it would appear that tbey must
anticipate an advance'into Saxony of tho Austro
Bavarian army, from Bavaria into Saxony, upon
the extreme west and through the defiles of
the Bohmer-Wald. Tbe headquarters of the
Austrian Commander-in-chief being at the
latest advices established at Olmutz in
lloravin, far to the eastward of the Bavarian
frontier and of the Bohmer-Wald, it is tolera
bly plain, we think, that the Prussians have
been feeling the whole line of the Austrian
front, and that they are getting themselves
into readiness to euect a junction between
their two armies, the aimy of Prince Frederic
Charles and the army ot the Crown Prince,
in order to meet an expected advance of
Benedek in force either into Silesia on the
extreme east, or into Saxony on the extreme
west. The withdrawal ot the Prussian troops
from the smaller States into which they had
been pushed beyond aud south of the corner
at which Saxony abuts both upon Bavaria and
Bohemia, would seem, when taken in
connection with this burning of bridges on
the Leipsic and Nuremberg road, to
show that the Austrians are looked for
rather more positively on the west than on
the east. An important Austrian victory in this
westers ronton of Saxony would have the great
moral effect of precipitating ibe whole of South
Germany decisively and at once into the arms
ot the Kaiser. Ou the other hand, a Prussian
victory here would roll Aumla decisively back
to tbe eastward, and lay Bavaria open to the
Northern arms.
The net result of the news we now have,
therefore, is simply to show us that the antago
nist powers re mauojuvriug for a battle-field,
while Prussia still retains and is evidently
making the most ot tbe great advantages which
she won by her prompt aud energetic action
following immediately upon the declaration of
the war.
Effect of the European War on our Marl
time Interests.
from the Ilaredd. 4
When foreign Government organs chuckled
over the annihilation of our carrying trade
during the late Rebellion, they little thought
how soon the tables were to be turned upon
them. Their encouragement of privateering,
their one sided constructions of maritime laws,
and their bad faith generally, were indulged In
in the belief that a day of reckoning was dis
tant. It has come sooner than they expected.
Belore they reach the secon1 year or tne war
on which they have entered our shipping inte
rests will not only have entirely recovered from
the iniurv inflicted upon them, but will have
monopolized the carrying trade of the world. It
will require but five years' duration of the strug
gle to give us a commercial marine equal to
that ot all the European Nations combined.
Every one knows the effect which the wars of
Napoleon bad upon tne growtn 01 our commer
cial navy. To them it unquestionably owed the
extraordinary development which it assumed
prior to 1813, and which so excited the lealousy
ot England a to lead to the orders in Counoil.
We are entering upon a similar stale of affairs
now, with this difference, that our resources
and opportunities of profiting by it are enor
mously mnltipled, and that we bring to this
fresh field of enterprise energies sharpened by
a sense of unfair treatment.
Tbe shipping Interests oi this country have
never, la truth, had brighter prospects. If
Congress would only remove tho foolish re
strictions which it imposed on vessels belong
ing to our merchants which were transferred
to the protection of foreign flags during the war,
they would be in a still better position. We
shall want all tbe vessels that we can procure
tor some years to come. It takes time to build
new ones, and U facilities be afforded for the
transfer of those that have passed from our
flag, they will help to supply the demand in the
Interval. We trust, before Congress separates,
that eome atlentlon will be given to this matter,
It Is in our power to do much for our commer
cial marine by a few judicious treasures of en
couragement, and the sooner it Is done the better
it will be lor the Interests of the country gene
rally. '
Ibe Sew Conquest or Canada,
Tram ttie Daily tfewi.
Alexander, alter he had toppled ovor crowns
and subdued countries, signed because there
were no more worlds to conquer. General
Banks is a more fortunate roan. Though his
celebrated campaigns in the Shenandoah and
the Southwest cannot either ot them be said to
excel that of the ambitious Macedonian in Asia,
still they present some points with which the
achievements of the Grecian warrler cannot bo
compared. More charitable than his prototype,
he took compassion on his enemies, and fed tbe
bunrry and clothed the naked. But, like Alex
ander, his heart was imbued with a sovereign
contempt for them a contempt with whicii ho
was so strongly impressed that it led him to
turn his buck upon them, and enabled him, like
the high-mettled racer, to make the best run
ning time on record. There is, however, an ad
vattape'to be derived from such chivalrlc
action. The advantage is portrayed in burning
verse, and has been a theme for tho pens ot
many poets. Dr. Butler we mean the Poctor
ot Uudibrastic fame, and not the author of the
Dutch Gap blurted out its benents in the
couplet:
"For those that fly may fight again,
Which he can never do mat's slain."
And before Butler's day, Tertullinu and old
Erasmus gave to the world the same apothegm
in the mother tongue ol the Roman conquerors,
and Jleuander in that of the Grec.an heroes;
while, in the age in which Butler lived we still
mean the poet, and not tho warrior of that
name Scuiron put it in-o the vernacular or the
natiou over which in later ears the great Napo-
limn ulplrtpri RnViroi(rn Bwuv lint, imnr pnut.
comg Oliver Goldsmith transposed it into the fl
lines that are now so popular; they are written
iu the languuee tbut the gallant Bauks learnt
to li'-p when but 11 babe, ana read:
"I- or Be v.bo fights and inns away,
11 a v live to liht auoUer day;
But tit- who Is iu battle slain
Can never use uua llrht again."
Alas ! it dors not always happen that Old
Father Time presents that otbt-r aay to impetu
ous mortals. The man may be ready, but the
opportunity i.s not at all times forthcoming,
fortune, however, favors the Maior-Geueral of
Massachusetts, and oilers to him new fields for
conquest, new lauds tor subjujuttun. lie is not
again to march from Harper's Ferry in the direc
tion of the equator, "with martial ardur burn
ing," nor to tramp from New Orleans in tbe
track of the setting sun; but he is now to turn
his face towards the aurora boreulK ai.d make
the North pole his objective point. He is to
cross the British border ot course, without any
tear ot a neutrality proclamation staring him in
the face march "far into the bowels ot the
land" of course, again, "without impediment"
and, when he reaches that most enviable spot,
he is to be enabled to exclaim, in the words of
mighty Cwsar, "Veni, Vidi, Vittil"
But how is all this to be accomplished ? How
is the ew conquest of Canada to be achieved ?
By the sword? Oh, dear, no! General Banks'
sword has long since been transformed, not into
a ploughshare, but into a pruning-hook an
implement with which he can at one blow lop
off a few States from the Union, and at another
shave off a few millions from the pockets of the
public tor the behoof of his manufacturing con
stituents. How is the conquest to be wrought,
then T Why, by act of Congress.
To sink metaphors and descend to fact, the
Honorable Mr. Banks for that is his present ap
pellation has laid before Congress the draft of
a bill, which we have already printed, for the
annexation and ruture government of the
Canadas and other British American provinces.
But, however we might approve of any measure
that would bring tbe northern part of tbe
continent under our own Government, we do not
think that, under the present aspect of Ameri
can politics, the time is an opportune one for
this country to make advances in that direction,
nor do we think the nation fortunate in the
choice ol its commander, if it hopes to achieve
a victory.
It must, nevertheless, be a relief to the Ka
nucks and the Blue Noses this -hot weather to
find that they can be spared the necessity of
squabbllnc about confederation, and can have
all their little matters arranged at Washington,
without their being even so far troubled as to
have their consent asked. In tbe bill everv'
thing is bo nicely cut and dried for them that it
is impossiDie tney either can nave, or should
be allowed to make, any objection to tne arrange
mint. Our own brethren at the South are not
troubled to give their opinions in like cases:
and, therefore, why should we show more cour
tesy to comparative strangers than we do to
them ? In lact, the bare thought of so doing
would seem to be an absurdity, and is beneath
Mr. Banks' notice. That be looks upon the
whole affair as un fait accompli is evidenced
in the fact that before be gets to the end of
the bill ho speaks of "said States" and "late
Provinces." He alBo, without the sanction of
the parties most interested, parcels out States
and Territories in the most delightful manner
imaginable, ana witn an tne methodical taste
of a landscape gardener. He weds Province to
Province, aud turns them into one blessed State,
iust as the Freedman's Bureau deals with
negroes down South, without as much as saying
Dy your leave, unoeriess iNewioundtand. how
ever, be desires to be doubly blessed, for he
gives her two bedfellows; in one clause of the
bill she is united to Nova Scotia, and in another
to Canada East a polygamic proceeding that is
worthy ot Brig ham loung. lie builds a ra'l
way lrom ocean to ocean, and, generous man I
gives away thousands of acres of laud which be
does not nossess. to people that have no exist
ence. And, above all, he pays the colonial debt
with a stioke ot the pen a plan ot getting rid
of a national burden almost equal to the sponge
process which Cobbett proposed to apply to the
oppressive aeut 01 ureal uriiain.
Now all this is very tine; put it does not
appear that the people of Canada have been
maae any party to tne "nice little arrange
ment," and it la hardly likely that they will be
willing to be tarred with the radical brush that
is already almost worn out tn any attempt to
turn the South into a black republic. Under
its preseut auspices, and with its present sur
roundings, the benighted Britishers will be not
unnaeiy to iook upon the whole affair as
boax; or perhaps they may decide that it is
to tbe peculiar position in the heavens of the
aog star, at this particular period of the year,
tnat tney must look for the key ot what must
oe 10 mem a mystery.
We mav. Perchance, be Wrnnor In nur anrmlmw-
and should, theietore, advise Mr. Banks to make
a rer-onnoissance in force. Let htm march into
the British Provinces with the "enabling act,"
flVt cal,e1i " one hand, and the new Morrill
tariff in the other. Let him
provincials the folly ot their logging along with
the paltry payment of three dollars and lorty
five cents per head taxation when they can be
"enricked" by having the amount quadrupled,
ana put in the shane of an annual pnnrnhiitinn
to avaricious manufacturers and ironmasters, to
gay nothing about their having their wages
doubled and their cost of living trebled by
coming under the benign Influence of Radical
rule. Let him do this," and perhaps mind, we
ssy perhaps he will find the Ksnucks and the
Blue Noses, like Captain Scott's coon, come
down without giving him occasion to fire a shot
