A correspondent at Florence, writing on the 9th, rays can assure you there is not the slightest foundation for the rumors which have been circulating in the press about Menotti and Rieelotti Garibaldi having gone to Bucharest to assist in the revolutionary projects of the govern ment there against Turkey. Menotti is busy on his farm at Caprera,and neither he nor any mem ber of his family has any idea of going to Rou mania. Certain Italian agitators have gone to Bucharest, but they are Mazzinians, who have nothing in common with Garibaldi. Mazzini and his friends accuse the General of having caused - the failure of the Roman insurrec tion last year, saving that if he had had the patio:tee to wait a month longer a revo lution would have broken oat at Rome itself,and that France,in the face of so evident a manifesta tion of the feelings of the Roman people towards this Government, would not have dared to inter fere. These reproaches, combined withdomestle trouble, hen, I fear, so pained Garibaldi that he has determined to leave Captain and go to America; as for Mizzini and the party of action, they seem to have for the present abandoned the idea of making .any more attempts to invade the Papal territory. They wish to precipitate a so. mutton of the Roman question by involving France in a great war which would compel her to withdraw her troops from Rome; and it la with this object, apparently, that their emissaries are now preparing together with the Rottman GOT ernment, to stir up disturbances in the East."

He was some days In bed, and during this time received a visit from Dr. Comeau physician of the Emperor Napoleon, who hap penedi to be in Rome. The Holy Father is now convalescent. On Thursday he gave audience, in his cabinet, to the Marquis De Bonneville, to receive his credentials as Am bassador of France. Ho afterwards granted the same favor ,to General Dumont, who came. to Wank hiM for his visit to the French troops.

The West Davenport nlarder—Details of the 'Tragedy. [From the Albany Evening Joarnal.Norember 28.1 Our reporter has obtained some important facts In regard to the terrible tragedy at West Davenport, Delaware county, which show that the poor woman must have suffered excruciat ingly before her death. Thu easels as follows: Eilsha B. Fero and his wife were at his store in West DaVenport a- considerable portion of the day preceding the night of the murder. It is al legal thatis woman with Whom Mr. Fero was on intimate terms visited the store several times on that day, but for what object is not known. The landlord at the. hotel at West Davenport says that tie went to the residence of Fero about 11 o'clock on Monday night, about two hours before the murder was committed, and thal Mr. and Mrs, Ferawere then up, and that Fero went to his store with him and procured him a faucet. The object for which he called boing - acconardished,he took his departure. About 1 o'clock, the family occupying the dwelling next to that of Mr. Fero, and consisting of husband,wile and son, Were startled from their sleep by groans or moaning, as from a person suffering the pangs of death, with the words:— 'Oh dear! oh dear! don't kill me!" They made a Blight search, but discovering nothing, they again retired. In a short time theywens again alarmed by the discharge in , the street of a phitol,and hear , Inv an outcry proceeding from Mr.Fere. Hasten ing out, they met Mr. Fero, and .he , informed them that there had beetra burglar bilis helm tr 3 mg to rob him. By this time the neighbors had assembled, and they entered Fero's house, when ho again informed them that a bulgier had been trying to rob him, and that he had escaped. They then entered the bedroom and found Mrs. Fero weltering in her gore, and discovered that she had been shot through the head. It should be stated, perhapa,that at the time Fero was dis covered on the street,he had all his clothes on ex cept his hat and boots. The blankets were placed with the utmost care about the woman—a fact hardly consistent with Fero's statement that he had been palled from dieted while clinging to the pistol of the bur glar, and that after a struggle with him he imme diately sashed into thestreet. The Coroner was notified, hastened thither and immediately empanneled & jury. Physicians were summoned, and a post-moytent examination' was held upon the body of Mrs. Fero. It was found that she had received three fractures of the 4.kni4, the wounds of whichr measured respectively eleven, seven and three inches, and also a platel wound, either of which was 'sufficient to produee death. The phyalcians were of the opinion that the de ceased received threesevere blows on the, head, and that they must have been given her previous to her having been shot. These blows must have • wen inflicted with a board or other fiat substance. In making a further and more thorough czarist, nation or the body of deceased, marks of a man's hand were discovered on her face, directly cov ering her month. The ball, after entering, , the cranium of the murdered woman, immediately took an upward turn, whiela hardly seems possi ble, if, as Fero states, it came from a pistol in the winds of a burglar standing over her. Another fact learned on this further investiga tion will also have an important bearin,g hi the ease. The ball taken from the phtol wound . On deceased, it is alleged, was found to exactlyfit the pistol found upon Fero. Another point bearing on the case is, that Mr. Fero said the burglar must have entered the house with a pair of nippers by the front door; but on examination by two experts, it was found that such could not have been the ease, as there were no marks on the key. The key was plated on the inside of the door, and the door.was locked. It 118 then opened with a pair of nippers, and the marks of the nippers were found imprinted on thelrey. Thin tact impressed all with the idea that the murder was not committed by any party from the outside. This circumstance of the key was then related to Ur. Fero, whis, it is stated that he did not know whether the door was Locked by Mrs. Fero before retiring or not. All these facts, combined with the contradictory stories told by Mr. Fero, the Coroner's jury con sidered as a warrant to them for the finding of rim guilty of wilful murder. IN dr. Fero has been honored and respected in 4111,1 community. He has been Justice of the Peace, and both himself and wife were members of the Methodist Church. -, Mrs. Fero was an es timable woman. The excitement in the village Is of course intense. Rumors of domestic discord, : originating in' marital infidelity on the pert of the husband, abound. The evidences that the murder was most atrocious and brutal' are so convincing that the feeling is intensely bitter. The Christian virtnesand modesty of the deceased bad won for her great, respect, and that she should thus be madelhe victim of brutal and fiendish passion has produced a sympathy for her deep and strong. Fero was yesterday com mitted to jail on a coroner's warrant, without examination. SUICIDE IN PITTSBURGH. Death of an Auctioneer. The Pittsburgh Commercial of Saturday say& The community , was startled yesterday morn ing by the announcement that Mr. James S. Pal mer, of the firm of Palmer & Phillips, auction eers, Fifth Avenue, had taken , poison during the night, and had been found in a dying , condition, in the office, in the rear of the auction house. lhe report proved truo,as Mr. Palmer died about two o'clock in the afternoon. Coroner Clawson, having been notifle,d,empan neled a jury, when tho following testimony was elicited : N. J. Mcelarran t sworn—Am a.druggist. doing business on Market street; knew the deceased quite intimately; on Thanksgiving afternoon. about three o'clock, while standing at the store dcor,•l saw Mr. Palmer on the opposite side of the street; he came directly across, as though he bad not intended stooping at that timef saying, "You put me in mind that I want some laud anum or sweet oil;" he then came in and purchased one ounce of laudanum and two ounces of sweet oil, in separate bottles; -the laudanum was in a white vial and the oil in a green vial; ho said they were for family use; I did not notice any iiecnliarity of manner; he was as sober as any man could ho, and talked about business and other matters not only rationally but agreeably. He was on his way to dinner when he stopped, and something - was — said - ahout - dinner.at saint° en hour. (. portion of melted glass,, which had been taken from the Love 11.1 the office, near the cot on which the deceased lay, was here shown to Hie witness.) This, I think, is not'the glass of the laudanum bottle. It may have been the sweet oil bottle, but it is too green to have been white glass. The fire could, not havo changed White glass to look Biro this. 1. .H. T. Coffee, sworn—Was called to see Mr. Painter about eight o'eloeltl found hicatnemaiblai OUR WHOLECOMP.

The laudanum must have been taken between ten and twelve o'clock, and, most of she poison had been absorbed before the stomach pump had been applied. Mr. Palmer was about thlrty-three years of, age, and leaves a wife and three children. He was born in this city, and began business life as an employ& in the dry goods house of George It. White & Co. He was connected with McClel land's auction house as book-keeper, and pre vious to establishing the present 'Jinn was a member of the late firm of 13mithsoti Palmer & Co. ,The motive for committing suicide is not very clearly indicated. An Unpublished Letter From the Late lIIr. Cobden. (From the Boston Advertiser Nov. 28.1 The following is a copy of a private letter from Mr. Cobden, which we aro permitted to print, as it relates to public questions of peculiar in terest: Mowienst, Jan. 8,1864.-Dear Sir: I entirely agree with you as to the conseeneeces to be ap. prehended from the operations of the privateers. But Ino not see how I can interfere now with any advantage. I stated in the House last ses sion, when it was difficult to get a hewing on that elde, what I feared would be the cense quenees of our lax proceedings at Liverpool, itc. And I took every opportunity of impressing privately on those in power my fear (which seems to be your own) that the demand for in demnity for captures would cost us a war or a great humiliation. I don't see how one or the other is to be avoided. For bear in mind the mischief is done, and the language, the taunting and insulting language of the Prime Minister in the House when the subject was brought forward by Mr. Foster, last spring (when I was absent,) remains on record, and ifear is not likely to be forgotten. Then bear in 'mind that Lord John Russell has refused in his correspondence with Mr. Adams to recognize the claim. For me to interfere now and advise the Government to pay the money would neither be fair to the public nor myself. It must become the subject of regular diplomatic negotiation. The fact is—and the whole fact—that our ruling class, and a large section of the upper middle class (led by the Times and its satelites), have been so rampant in their hostility-to - the - GreatHepublle; - of -- whos‘ strength and resources they are dangerously igno rant, that they have jumped Instantly to the conclusion that—to use their unhappy phrase— "the republican bubble had burst"—and they commenced'` - to treat the country as they would Brazil. lam sorry to say that the altered tone of our diplomatie correspondence in the Bide Books shows that the Foreign Office reflected this al tered feeling. Meantime among the masses of the people the feeling was unchangeably with the North. Lord Russell said at Blair- BoWile the majority were for the North. ut the majority have no votes. If the whole people had been ret i nae !, nted in the House of Commons, the Prime hi' ter would not have spoken as Lord Palmerston spoke, nor would Mr. Laird have been frantically cheered when he rose in the House and virtually said, - "I did it." However, as I before remarked, the mischief is done, and now It remains to be seen with what grace the people will allow themselves to be com mitted to a war or a humiliation by the ruling class which has the powers of government in'lts But I cOnfeas Phil - tilt the money amount Of the captures the smallest part of the future penalty We shall Inive to-pay. .It is the loss of prodtie tive value Inflicted on' the whole of , the United States merest:lWe marine which is the most preg nant, for It Stows what half a dozen swift steam ers would do to our mercnaittmen. And with whatever"maritime nower we may be at war, we may be assured" that the Americans will pay as in our osvn coin, and that it will be im possible for the Government then to prevent privateers from being fitted out against us. This i have heard stated - by some of the best friends of England amongthe Americans..

I remain. truly yours, I Signed,. I R. COBDEN. Commodore Lawrence Kearney, We regret to announce the death of this distin guished naval officer at Perth Amboy, N. J. on yesterday, the 26th inst. Commodore Kearney was born at Perth Amboy on the 36th of Novem ber, 1789, and would have completed his seventy ninth birth-day to-day had he live'. He entered the naval service as a midship man on July \ 24, 1807, and after serving on gunboats) two years was ordered to the frigate Constitution and subsequently to the, frigate President. After serving on various other vessels and being promoted to the rank of Lieu tenant in the meantime, he was,in 1818,placed in command of the flotilla of galleys and barges,and distingulahed himself by capturing a tender under the guns of the British frigate Hebrns. For the performance of this exploit he received great praise and gained an enviable reputation. The war with Great Britain closing soon after, Lieu tenant Kearney was placed in command of the brig Enterprise, and engaged in the suppression of piracy hi the Wiestlndies. It was through his energetic conduct that the notorious pirate Gibbs and hie band were broken up. In 1826, as commander of the sloop-of-war Warren, he was despatched to the Mediterranean for the purpose of protecting American commerce from the Greek pirates. During the following year he bombarded Miconi, in the Levant, and compelled the restoration of American property that had been plundered and despoiled in the town by the pirates,who were also surrendered to him. In 1840 the deceased, who had become: a captain before this time, was placed in command of the East India Squadron, and rendered important service to, the country in opening an intercourse with the Chinese &Vern went and thus aiding- Americans in their efforts to obtain a part of that commerce with China which was then almost wholly monopolized by European Powers, and principally by , Great Britain. On his return home, Capt.. Kearney was placed on "waiting orders" for a short time and thou returned to active. service. In 1862 he was placed on the retire:lllst, and although there is no official record of his having been in active service subsequently, the Navy Register for 1868 names May, 1864, as the time when his last cruise expired, so that he must have held some command after being retired. Ho did not, however, take an active part in hostilities (klieg the rebellion. In , 1866 he was commissioned Commodore, which rank be held at the time of his death. cWith thesingle exception of Rear Ad miral Charles Stewart thedeceauff was, the oldest officer in the naVareeivice of the United , States. His precise term of service Sixty-oni 904N four months and live days, of- which. twenty-four years and three tintinths wore,spent at sea.

IN• background, although the promise he eava of attaining great renown in the navy when a young man, and his many important services to the country, have never been. forgotten by the public. For some years he has been residtug Perth Amboy, the place of his nativity, from whence the news, of his death, when spread throughout the landovili cause great regret., Pierre Antoine Berner. A cable telegram announces the death in Paris, on Saturday , last, of Pierre Antoine Berryer, the celebrated French advocate and legitimist. The distinguished deceased was born in Paris on the 4thbf_January; 1790, and was, educated at the Jesuit College of Jeuilly. In 1814 be began prac, flee and soon rose to prominence, being an at,- Pistant of his father and M. Dauphin in their: defence. of Marshal Ney.. In 183 a 11.1er-, ryerwas elected &Deputy for the departmeut of Haute. Loire, and took active part in the debates of the Legislative Assembly. He opposed Louis Napoleon's coup creurt and continued the bitter enemy • of the empire ever, atter. As au advocate he had no en- Perierei and but few equals in France. In 1833 X. Berryer was elected a member of the French. Academy,- and in , consequence. of his inangaral 'peech containing some allusions considered dis respectful to the empire its suppression was ordered, but the interdict was removed within iwenty-fonr hours_ Notwithstanding his intense animosity to Louis - Napoleon the Emperor appears to have had a. very high appreciation of his talents and character. Rather than embarrass him by an interview Napoleon excused him from the usual custom of presenting himself at the Tuileries on account of his election. In the. great French case of Patterson vs... Bona parte in 1860.1 M, Berryer was the advo cate of Mrs. Patterson, who, it will be remem bered, brought suit to prove the , validity of her marriage with. the Emperor's. uncle, Jerome. The sultolcourse was not gained, but the manner in which. it was prosecuted added considerably to the reputation of the advocate. In 1863 he became a candidate for the Corps Legis latif and was elected. As a member he was,with M. Thiers, the greatest opponent of the imperial government. Blau, , of his orations against the policy of the Emperor.are masterpieces of elo quence. As a private, character Berryer was a great spendthrift. Although his practice brought him an enormous yearly Income his reckless ex peeditures of money compelled him to frequently appeal to his friends for assistance.

It is Mr. uraig's.peculiarity to furnish an exceedingly amusing entertainment without any indulgence in the coarseness; and vulgarity of word or action which so often distinguish comic actors. His very palpable hits at foolish men and silly things may excite the ire of those who feel the keenness of .the shafts, but the world is well pleased to save ridiculous things held up to farther ridicule. Particu)arly in burlesquing Offenbach's operas is Mr. Craig doing good service, and he need not fear any charge of vulgarity coming from parties who hive found in those travesties . upon lyric drama nothing bat refinement.

The performance was not In ferior to those which have preceded it. Beetho ven's Grand Symphony No. was given in a manner worthy of the beauty and excellence of the composition; and the succeeding march of Mendelssohn, and the Strauss waltz, were•cred- Reidy played. One of the most pleasant pieces upon the programme was a barcarole by Mr. Carl Heinemann, a member of the orchestra. The composition is characterized by much originality, and exceeding gracefulness and beauty. It was performed by Mr. William Stoll, Jr., and Mr. William Ewers, with violin and cor net, accompanied by the orchestra. under direc tion et Mr. Heinemann. The piece is worthy of an early repetition, and we hope it may soon ap pear upon the programme again.
