FRIDAY, MARCH IG, 1860
The Future of Italy.
The London Globe of the 28th ult. (Lord
•
Palmerston's organ) says ig it has authority to
announce 'that the Austrian Government has
stated' that the report published on the 25th,
of an Austro-Russian affiance, is entirely do
void co i f foundation." I,ess authoritatively,
the Globe says that the statements that, under
threat of the withdrawal of the French troops
from Italy, the Central Italians are to be called
upon to think no 'more of annexation, but to
consent to the election of a sovereign in Tus
cany, to allow the separate annexation of Mo
dena and Parina to Piedmont, and to give up
the Romagna, are far from being correct.
On the other hand, it is stated, from Paris,
that Napoleon has sent a note to Count
Cavour, requiring Piedmont to give up all
thoughts of the annexation of Tuscany, that
'Victor-Emmanuel has decidetinot to act as this
dictation desired, and that the French troops,
if ho be e6hteftiacious, will at once occupy
Savoy.
Mr. Kinglake, the author of "Eotbea," de
clared, in his place in the Rouse of Commons,
that he had received undoubted information
that an agreement was entered into, the night
before the marriage of the Princess Clothilde,
In which the King of Sardinia agreed to cede
Nice to France, in return for any possessions
which be might receive. lie believed this de
sign was abandoned, but when the treaty of
Villa Franca was found impracticable, It was
again revived. Lord John Russell was unable
to deny that France had designs upon Savoy,
but said that, with regard to its annexation,
f , he was sure, after the prudence and sagacity
which had been shown by the Emperor of the
French, he would hesitate before he adopted a
course which would give rise to apprehension
and distrust, which would bo contrary to the
magnificent proclamation which he issued at
the commencement of the Italian war, and
would also not be to the security of France.
Seeing, therefore, the feeling of distrust and
hostility the annexation of Savoy would give
rise to, he hoped the Emperor would abandon
such a Policy."
The Paris correspondent of the London
Timm whose information upon European po
litics Is generally surprisingly accurate as well
IN early, nays it is reported that the Emperor
of the French is, even now, desirous to exe
cute, if possible, the stipulations of the Vi/la.
Franca treaty ; and, for that purpose, would
wish the great European Powers to discuss the
latter in conference on the following basis
simply : A kingdom to be formed in Central
Italy, to consist of Tuscany and also the Ro
magna; and in the probable event of the Pope
refu4ing the pLen of a nominal suzerainte,
Perli and Modena to In annexed to Piedmont
in exchange for Savoy. The sovereign of the
new States to be the young Grand Duke of Tus
cany, or a prince of the House of Bonaparte;
in the latter case probably a grandson of
Joseph, formerly King of Spain.
The remarkable confusion Into which Italian
politics have fallen, chiefly from Napoleon's
weathercock action, may lead to a repetition
of the war ere long. He wavers between the
claims of Italy, represented by Victor-Em
manuel; of the Church, represented by the
Pope; and of Austria, which represents the
old legitimist principle, as well as the aggran
dizement of the House of Hapsburg. Napo
leon evidently desires to rotund oil his Empire
by the annexation of Savoy; but re can
scarcely believe that Victor-Emmanuel will
voluntarily part with that earliest appanage of
his house, on any terms.
Taking it Coolly.
While extensive preparations are making in
England, France, and in India, for the new
China war—lnevitable, unless the Emperor
liicufung give satisfaction" for the attack
upon the British and French vessels in the
Peiho river—it would appear that the Chinese
arc taking matters very coolly. They are act
ing as if everydread of hostility was dismissed.
The Emperor has not Only thrown open the
new ports of Swatow and Taiwan, but he has
extended the advantageous provisions of the
American treaty to England and other Powers.
A reduction of the tonnage dues at the various
open ports has also been ordered.
Lord Elgin, who goes a second time as Am
bassador front Queen Victoria to the Emperor
of China, has fullest powers to adjust the ex
isting difficulty—but will insist on much more
than a mere apology. France has a voice in
this matter, and requires a large sum from
China, equivalent to the cost of sending out
the second armament, which is now on its nay
to place the tri-color ti ig upon the summit of
the tallest pagoda in Pekin, if that be practi
cable. Of course, if France lead such a card
as this, England will follow suit.
In the Chinese language, Ilienfung—which
is only the Emperor's adopted or State name,
like the name assumed by every Pope on his
accession—signitles perfect felicity. In the
event of Pekin being bombarded by the British
and French troops, the Imperial 4 , felicity"
will by no means be so " perfect," as it now
appears.

(Correspondence of The Frees.]
NEW YORK, March 11, IMO
The benefit at the Academy of Music on Sethi
day last, for the family of the late George Wilkie',
was the most successful, in a pecuniary point of
view, of any demonstration of that sort that has
been given in this city. There were some circus.
stances connected with it that are worth alluding
to. as showing how many really kind-hearted,
noble fellows there are who, passing ordinarily for
mere men of fashion, bent exclusively upon their
own pleasures, aro at bottom quick to appreciate
and quick to respond to any appeal made to them
is behalf of any worthy object that may have
claims upon their generosity. There were many
of these " worldly " young fellows who had come,
morn or less, in contact with Mr. NVilkins in the
lobbies and business rooms of the opera house,
and who appreeiated the many goods points in his
character. And they testified their appreciation
by taking tickets—tome ten, tome twenty. some
fifty, and some an hundred each—and paying for
them. Others, among whom wore several mem•
bars of the operatic and dratuatio profes4m,
who o.fered their services, but could not well be
included in the various performances of the after
noon and evening, purchased tickets at five dollars
apiece. Besides these cla:er things, several of the
of the Herald, present.
newspaper people made liberal deductions from
whole amount, (upwards
n h g e I
t r oh bills—

of one hundred dollars); the Times donating one.
heir, and other journals defog the equally generous
and correct thing. The result of the whole is, that,
after paying all exponsee, Mrs. Wilkins will re
ceive about tico thost.ana! fire Itendred dollars in
cash, for herself and the children, and that is not
to be pooh-pooh'd at this time of year in MO.
The grand "Gridiron " Railroad bill, running
through Sea enth avenue, and some forty•odd
streets of the city, hangs fire in the Assembly, and
will probably get a quietus in that body. Indeed,
there aro oracular givings-out, by those who pro.
fees to be " inside " in the matter, that George
Law does not really want the bill to pass at all
lie caused it to be introduced into, and passed
through, tile Senate, for the purpose of killing off
several other railroad projects that would materi
ally damage the Eighth and Ninth avenue roads,
which aro mostly owned by him. The Senate, by
passing the "Gridiron," have committed them
selves against the others, and the House, not hav
ing been " seen " on the subject, are tolerably cure
to send it to Coventry. It would not be surprising,
therefore, if the present Legislature, like the last,
should come to a close without passing a single
city-railway bill, notwithstanding several are im
periously demanded, by the necessities of the pub
lic.
Since the ventilation of the Seventh Avenue
Famine, a veritable Broadway bill has been
brought upon the carpet. It differs from all other
city roads in that it provides for the " carrying of
passengers, parcels, and letters." Below Four
teenth street the faro is to be only three cents.
The postal provision is, that the company shall
carry letter-boxes in all their ears, all letters de
posited in which shall bo deposited in station. t o
be provided, one for each mile of route, free of
charge, and parcels are to be carried at ten cents

at the said stations. The company is also autho
rized to connect their line wittethe up-town depots
of the Hudson River, Now Haven, and Harlem
roads, to carry those passengers; fare to the

'he remberleas streams cf the land were tiled with
an infinity of fish, and Err/netted by beavers,
"tiers. and nantkrats in abundance. The whits
man, in his wanderings, would. often stumble cc
troops of nimble-f'oted, not-brown girls. who, in
their unrestrained glee. were =kiss the old woods
echo and re-echo with the music ct their slimy
voices, whilst net far of `beads of herein-zed. an
t.reeched, and bare-headed urchins were taking
their first lessons in archery and in arms, by pat
,ereting and 'murderous attempts to slay mall
wrens and scoffing catbirds Bat the crowning
attraction of the spot, to both the Indian an-1 the
white man, was the glittering cataract of the
Falling Spring " The former reposed, daring
the heat of the day, in the cool shade, upon its
banks, and watched the speckled trout as they
sported in Its clear waters, or darted away on the
igh test sound of stran ge raters or strange presence-
To him there was no mane sweeter than the plashing
of its miniature camades over loot* atones and is
•crposing roots, whilst the roar of its final impetuous
leap from rock to rock, and from declivity to de
divity. in mingled foam end mist, gave undefined
ideas of that "Great Spirit" who dwells in the
loitnensity of space, and rules in the bunting
grounds " of the red man.
No iron horse then thundered along through the
land with almost the speed of the wind, each day
bringing with it, through the columns of the
press, an account of the occurrences which
transpired the day before, at the seats of the
State and National Government; and no tele
graphic wire, fleshing its menages with the speed of
light, to the most distant parts of the Union. gave
the daring " Nuatter sovereigns" of this wild re
gion a'claily summary of the nntiotis doings, and
of the deeds of their fellows.
To the white man, titen.'or STOIC, the chief at•
traction of the spot was its water-power—its ea.
nability of being converted to useful, labor-caving
Purposes; and the thundering cataract, like the
ravage Indian, was soon seen and heard no more.
or, if heard at all, 'ewas only in fitful spells, and
divested of all its former terrors. Diverted from
its original channel, e. - od converted to the uses of
man, it has, for a century and a quarter, been
toiling away to supply bread for the hungry,
clothing for the naked. and el.-Irak for the thirsty.

by the Grand Lodge of Pennsylvania, and by
voluntary contributions from the Lodges in the
State—ere about to erect, in the " Cedar Grove
Cemetery." near this place, an appropriate monu

Nichols. the first presiding cdEcer of the Grand
Lodge of this State. P. G. M. Nichols was one of
the olde't Odd Fellows in the rnion--was a Past
Grand as early as 151. 1 2, and took an active part in
placing the Order upon its present firm basis. His
remains repose in one of our grave-yards, unmark
ed by a stone, and it is a labor of love for his
brethren of Columbus and Chamber...berg Lodges,
with the aid of the Gland and subordinate Lodges
of the jurisdiction, to erect anOnduring memorial
of their appreciation of his worth and virtues
Every l - Age in the State should take pride in ad•

greatness of its Order. and the beauty of its prin
