unprecedented, but our resources are equalto any
emergency, good er bad

• GARIBALDI IN =OLAND.
SorrTESY.eyolir,..dpril3, :1861.-Garibaldi liasat
length - set foot on English' soil, and received such
14 welcome from the people of Southampton,-Who
would congregate on the docks in thousands, not
withstanding the sacredness or the day--that the
General can never torget. The Ripon passed
round Calshot Castle soon after 2: clock, and the
Duke-of Sutherland; l!dr. Seeley, M. P:,. and a .
host of gentlemen were in readinessto receive him.
There was considerable discussion as to who should
have the honor of the General's company,- when it
was decided that he should be the guest of the_
Maycr for the day.
Garibaldi was in his cabin, for which, of course,
such a rush was made by all his eager welcomers
that only a. few could get in, while the remainder
so effectually closed the entrance that the General
himselt could tr, cat out. The Duke 02 Suther
land and Mr. Seely, however, managed to get into
the little apartment, and, after a short and harried
welcome to its famous occupant. the General came
out to receive the congratulations of his other
friends in the saloon.
He was dressed in the plain uniform of the Italian
Legion—a dress which became him well—and in
which, through the portraits, we have hitherto
been most familiar with his features. In stature
be ts below the middle height; but his welvset
frame and rather broad shoulders give him an ap
pearance of great natural robustness and activity.
from which even his lameness could not much de
tract. His features, when not in conversation with
friends, Dave rather a sad aspect; but nothing can
exceed the animation of their expression when
speaking (especially -In Italian), and: there is a
winning a.ppeorance of good humor about his eyes
which is not easy to be described, but which those
who see it can never forget. For the rest, his por
traits are like him in all but this expression, and In
the fact that the photographs convey the Idea of
hie being an older and much taller man than he
really As. At once, when he came into the saloon,
be welcomed his friends with the most hearty cor
diality, yet with a dignity that was striking when
the peculiar simplicity of his manner was remem
bered.'
With him was his son. Menotti Garibaldi, who
was wounded with his father at Aspromonte, hut
who has entirely recovered the effects of hie injury
though Garibatoi still suffers, and, from the stiff
ness of the tendons of the ankle, is likely to feel
his hurt for some time.
When the steamer was close own° docks, all the
/pays were lined with crowds. .
_ - -
Garibaldi at once went up on the paddlebox, and
the ir want he was_seen he was hailed with tre
mendous cheers. which were continued inces
santly till the vessel came alongside.
The General then left the Ripon, and proceeded
in an open carriage through the town to the
Idayor's residence at East Park.
GARIBALDI' S SPERCIH.
[Southampton (April 4) correspondence of London
Times ] '
To- day Garibaldi was publicly received by the
people and Corporation of this town, and pre
sented with an address of affectionate cougratala
tion on his arrival in this country, in the ancient
Town Hall, which forms the upper story of the
well.known bar-gate of Southampton. Every
thing passed off most satisfactorily and with the
utmost enthusiasm; the reception accorded to the
Italian patriot wherever, he appeared being most
hearty and thoroughly earnest.
The Wayor made a speech, and the Town Clerk
read the corporate address to the General.
Gen. Garibaldi then bent forward and remained
for some minutes bowir g, in answer to the tumul
tuous applause with which he was greeted. He
at last said :
It is not the first time that I have received proo°
of the sympathy of the English nation, and I have
received those proofs not only in words, but deeds.
[Great cheering.] I have seen that sympathy
shown to me in many circumstances of my life,
and very particularly in 1860, when, without tho
help of the English nation, it 'would have been
impossible to complete the deed we did in Southern
Italy. [Great cheering.] The English people
provided for MB in men and in arms and in money
—they help all tne needs and wants of the human
family in their work for freedom. What they did
and what they talked of ne is worthy the eternal
gratitude of the Italian people. [Loud cheers.]
To answer some of the words, nettle and generous,
of the Mayor,_l will say to you that I did net sac
rifice any part of my life; but I think I did some
thing, and a very few part it was of my duty, and
(placing his hand on his heart) of the duty of every
man. I finish by giving my thanks to yon for
your .generous sympathy, and for your very kind
and good welcome to me here to-day. •

from Memphis on the 16th, has passed this
point with 800 bales of cotton, 160 of which
are for Evansville and the remainder for Cin
cinnati.
On the 4tb, Capt. Phelps, of the gunboat
Eastport, captured a rebel mail carrier near
Crocket's Bluff, Ark., with five hundred letters
from Richmond and other points, and sixty
thousand percussion caps intended for Price's
army. • The letters contained official commu
nications for Shreveport and, considerable
Federal money.
A squad of rebels recently captured repre

also burned a lot of cotton, and after arresting
seven cotton buyers and robbing them of
several thousand dollars, they, released them.
FROM MEXICO.
SAN FRANersco, April 18.—The ship Carrier
Dove has sailed for Callao.
The steamer Orizaba from Panama brings
Acapulco letters of the Bth inst. The occupa
tion of Columa by 2,000 French troops is con
firmed.
Proposals hare been made to Old Juan
Alvarez to acknowledge the Empire. He de
clined to listen to them, and said the French
were the enemies of his country, and that he
would resist them to the last extremity. It is
believed the . French will find the moan
taineers of Guerrero amongst their most uncon
querable enemies in Mexico. -
The latest advices from Oajaca state that
General Diaz held that city with 6,000 Mexi
cans, and was confident of his ability to defend
that State against the present French force.
In an emergency he could safely retreat to
Chiapas or Guerrero. The natives of these
States are hostile to the French.
xxxvrins CONOBESS—FIRST SESSION.
[ER. OSORRILL' S SPEECH COEITINUED.]
If we pass this bill it will show that we will
maintain our financial-credit at all cost. We have
tinder the present law, received forty or fifty mil
lions more than last year. Even now the revenue
from the internal tax, as well as that anticipated,
is more important to the treasury than the revenue
from imports, and both are equal to any ordinary
expenditure in time of peace. If we pass this
measure without curtailing the rates we shall fur
nish proof that we can not only pay-the interest on
the public debt and ordinary expenditures la
time of war, but shall contribute handsomely to
keep our expenditures within moderate limits.
We shall show the pebple of the United States
that we not only have the means to pay every
dollar we owe, or ever will owe, but the
principal and interest of the public debt in coin.
Ple repeated that the public faith will be main
tained at all hazards. The Government is now
supplied with more gold than is sufficient for its
purposes, and is actually begging its creditors
to re, rive payment in advance in order to be re
lieved from the plethora of gold which is blocking
up the commerce of the country. Let it be
known that if the war be closed in 1%5.
we will be able not only to support the
Government but pay the national debt hi little
more than ten years. Let it also be known that
the present large annual expenditures are not equal
to our annual increased wealth
•
When the war commenced we had only a hun
dred vessels. Now we hive over six hundred,
constituting one of the finest navies of the world.
We have added great quantities of the most ap
proved appliances of war at a great expense. With
the dash of the General who never fails, we must
anticipate crushing results $0 the enemy. But let
us set our house in order financially, and with
military success we shall be victorious over all ills.
Let us show we are stripping for the tight.
he trusted that every member will consent to
make large sacrifices 'for the good of the country,
let us have taxes and loans, lesson the amount of
legal tenders, and increase the pay of the soldier.
'lt is hoped the internal and import taxes will
enable the Secretary of the Treasury to ob:ain all
the funds be wants, and reduce the legal tender
issues. The Ireedmen will contribute much more
to the national wealth than even their friends
claim.
They are largely increasing the amount of pro
duction to which they were limited by unpaid and
forced labor.
Be examined the subject in an economical light,
and did not present a mere theory. Our faith is
pledged to give them shelter and protection.
Mr. Morrill then examined at length the promi
nent features of the bill, stating that even without
its machinery they might raise a larger sum than
is now proposed. It will yield over two hundred
and fifty millions when fairly in operation.
