The Progress of Garibaldi.
The continued success of CrXEiUALm iuhis
.noble mission of diponttoaUingSouthem Italy
ftom the dominibuoi'tliemoatintplqrableand
cruel deepotiam that ever existed, isooe ofthe
most remarkable und fortunato events .of
’'modern'times. The tyrants 6f Europe ibrtiiy
themselves so strongly upon their thrones,that
it rarely happens that any organization which
is not openly aided and strengthened by the
whole power of an antagonistic Government
can successfully resist their power.
The contest in Northern Italy, which termi
nated in the annexation of Lombardy to the
dominions of Vipxox , Emmaxuei, was of a
widely different character fVom the present one;
for, although Garibaxdi then led the advance
guard, and aroused his countrymen to rovolt
against the Austrian despotism, he bad quickly
following upon his footsteps the mighty armies
of'Saidinia and France, without whose aid all
his daring attacks would have beon entirely
fruitless, and,the struggles of his compatriots
vain. "
It is true that aid has been extended to him
by his countrymen in his present glorious
struggle, but not in an official and regulap
form. Those who flocked'to.bis standard did
so as filibusters, with,possibly, the connivaneo
of, the Sardinian Government, but not as its
legitimate soldiers or military representatives.
He has fonght his battles for the cause of the
people, against desperate disadvantages, with
no other aid than such as the people conld in
dependontly furnish to him. And, notwith
standing difficulties and apparently insur
mountable obstacles, which would have ap
palled the heart of almost any other general
of ancient or modem times, he ; has, achieved
an overwhelming triumph in the ißland of
Sicily, completely destroying the power of its
former tyrant within Its dominions, and now
threatens to drive him from his throne, and to
rescue Naples as he has rescued her Island
sister in bondage.
In tfiis importantwork it appears that Ame
rica has had at least some share, inasmuch as
American vessels were used to transport some
of the volunteers who went to the aid of Ga-'
ridaldi, and several of our countrymen Ten
dered themselves conspicuous in his move
ment. The capture, of one of these vessels
under unjustifiable circumstances also led Hon-
Joseph H. Chanbke, formerly of this city,
and now minister at Naples; to demand an ex
planation. ’ The toll account of this occurrence
will probably form an interesting chapter In
our diplomatic history, and we hope it will not
prove to bo a discreditable one.
The tendency of all tho heroic struggles of
Gabidat.di, and the logical consequonce of
his success, will be tho annexation' of all' his
new conquests to the dominions of Victor
Ehkahoel, in deference to the all-absorbing
passion for Italian unity which has been en
gendered, and which is now the predominant
sentiment of tho whole Italian people. It iR
singular that a nation which has so long been
divided and distracted by its petty rnlers, and
thus made a constant prey to the interfererice
and intrigues of foreign nations, should have
suddenly aroused from its . protracted slum
bers, and made such noblo and wonderfnl ef
forts to seek in the strength of union a future
worthy of the glories of its past history. The
spectacle is a' sublime and imposing one) And
upon ho people on the earth should it create
a deeper and more profound impression than
upon the citizens of the United States. While
Italy, almost goaded to despair by the' evils
which have, in-a great measure, resulted from
her territorial divisions, is thus endeavoring
to repair her past errors, and redeem her past
misfortunes, onr Republic, aftot having en
joyed a long career of unexampled prosperity
as a united Confederacy, is daily becoming
more and more imbufed with sectional feelings,
and the disunion sentiment annnally grows
moro.arrogant and oxacting. The history of
Italy should admonish all parties and all sec
tions of the common danger of a separation of
the United States, and a dismemberment of
onr Union, and remind, all good citizens
that its preservation is the highest and most
important'political dnty that devolves npon
them. .. . . ■ ,
The:. Democratic' Electoral Ticket.
In. another portion of our paper will be
found the reply of the Hoh. Bioimed Yaux,
jonoAfLthßqlectore at large appointed.by tho
Heading ConVeutiu.., ... the infamous propo
sition of .the. State, Central Committee. It
will bo seen that he very properly announces
that he considers himself under ho
to comply with wiUcon .
orpnizatioivOTg^J» t y t( j Yoto for t j, e regnlor
. v °. tho Democracy of the nation—
JSuolas and Jomtsos—and for no other can
didates. :It is difficnit to conceive of a more
unwarrantable assumption of power than, that
attempted by a majority of the committee at
their late meeting at the Merchants’ Hotel, in
thisciiy.
The tree object of such auxiliary organiza
tions is not to defy the action of the National
Convention of- tho party, bnt to seek to pro
mote the success of its regularly nominated
candidates. AVhenever it seeks to accomplish
other objects, it loses all claims.to the confi
dence and respect'of Democrats, and its ac
tion has no more claim upon their support than
the action of the committees of distinct and
antagonistic organizations.. The Baltimore
Convention was tho proper body to decide who
the regular Democratic Presidential candidate
should be. It has performed that duty, and
the State Central Committee has no shadow of
right to attempt to divert the support of tho
party to the Secession nominees.
If any of the electors chosen at Beading
cannot conscientiously support Mr. Douglas, it
is their duty to decline to act in behalf of tho
Democracy of tho State, and if they are will
ing to adhere to the regalar Democratic
organization, they should,' like Mr. Vaux, an
nounce their readiness to support the regular
ly nominated ticket and no other, in the event
of their success. Tho combination scheme is
radically wrong in itself, and does not
deserve, and cannot receive, tho sanc
tion of the people. When the Secession
ist!! withdrew from the regular Convention
they voluntarily severed their connection with
the Democracy of tho nation, and os Seces
sionists they cannot now bopo to control or
infinenco the movements of ihe great national
rganlzation, from which all who adhoro to the
support of Bueokiesuioc and Lane will ne
cessarily he as completely disconnected as if
tjiey were friends of Lincoln or Bell.
Report of the Prison Agent.
The report of the prison agent, Mr. Sira
ztis, will be found in another column. It
states the startling, thoagh not unexpected
fact, that during the last year more than one
thousand poysons were; released from prison
through'his eiiorts, without their cases having
been brought to the cognizance of our crimi
nal court, and that many of these prisoners
were innocent of any criminal offence what
ever, whlio tiio crimes of others were of such
a trifling and unimportant character, that
after a few words of explanation or remon
strance, the parties, through whose agency
they were originally incarcerated, cheerfully
consented to their release.
Although it is gratifying to know that con
stant and methodical efforts are thus mode to
secure the discharge ftom prison of persons
who should not, in justico, be retained there,
it is a lamentable fact that so many unfortu
nate beings should be unnecessarily tainted
with the disgrace of n committal to jail, and
the inconvenience, and, in many cases,positive
suffering to themselves or their families which
must necessarily result from it, simply because
they hare not money enough, or sufficient in
fluence to resist the summary proceedings of
subordinate officers of the, law, and to . pre
serve thoir constitutional right to liberty.
Wo all knowhow powerless our laws are
to-inflict. merited punishment upon a largo
class of offenders; who richly doßcrve it, and
how ,easy it is for wealthy and powerful crimi
nals to set at defiance many of the enact
monte on our statute-books; but, from thlg re
port, ft is evident that while s lamentable defi
ciency, of rigor Is exhibited in prosecutions le
gitimately required by tho. peace and welfare
of society,, excessive severity la displayed in
inflicting: punishment where it is unmerited
and unjust. ' While the really guilty go un
wbipt of justice, the innocent suffer, and prac
tically, it is almost (is easy to. secure tho con.
flnement of the poor and' friendless ip our
County Prison, for trifling or merely imaginaiy,
offences, 1 on . utterly .unfounded charges, as it
was In France to obtain a leltre du cacAcf, con
signing these who had excited the envy or ha
tred of tha powerful to tho Hostile, before that
fearful dungeon was demolished by an indl 5 -
nant Parisian mob.
THE £RESS.—PHILADELPHIA, WEDNESDAY, JtlA 11, 1860.
WASHINGTON COBMBBPONDENC F,
' .Letter from **
tCorroßpoDdenoe or'iho Fre«} ’ .
VVi»HUteTQH, JulylO; 1360
Mr. ltach&a&n mHtla hU vpoecli to the Disunion*
iets about midnight, that is between yesterday and
to-dsy. A more motley assemblageojould not well’
be conceived. Daring the day all the stipendiaries
were busily engaged, hot and sultry as it wsa, in
efforts to muster the faithful. Navy Agent FJynn
was tho ohlef manager, and was assisted In this la*
bor of lovo by many of the- new eenterU
of the Administration, whose names I for
bear mentioning ont of respect for themselves.
Money flowed llVe water. A series of banners,.
painted, no doubt* by order, and paid ont of the
contributions of the cUrfcs, v wUh''the name of
Breohlnridge misspelled, was carried totbe dif
ferent divisions iu the otty In an old furniture
wagon, whloh seemed to have boen hired from JV
C. Maguire, the auctioneer. As the afternoon ad
vanced, the scene became quite a lively one. The
Marini Band, paid like the feat, out of the
publio'treasnry, was summoned, and all the drum,
mers and fifers were employed to bring up the de
legations. The carnival did not commence, until
about nine o’clock, and It was really amusing to
s*e the various bureaus as they came into} Uae.
First we had the Treasury Department, marshalled
by that excellent and well-dressed}gentleman, As.
sistsnt Secretary of the Treasury, Clayton; then
. the Navy Department, under Chief Clerk
Welsh ; then tho Post Office' Depart
ment, under First Assistant Postmaster General
Ring; then the Interior Department, under Chief
Clerk Kelly; then tho Attorney General’s office
under Captain John Tyler; and last of all, sur
rounded by the auxiliary guard supported bytthe
Government, delegations from the Star and Cott
stitution offices, led by Brigadier General W&llaeh
i and the l&to lamented Gen. Bowman. The speeches
; wore all denunciatory of Stephen A Douglas,
[• While scarooly a word was uttered-against Abra
ham Lincoln. The British flag was painfully pro-
minent In the deoorations of the stand. There
■were two reasons for this: First, the British edi
tor of the Constitution, who has lately been ap
pointed to edit the Disunion organ of Breckinridge
and Lane, no doubt ioslsted owbaWng tbe banaer
of his country unfurled at a meeting which was
intended to propitiate his Qrteon * »pd, xeoondly,
because in the'event of the sdfiess of the Disunion
lets, they expect in the South t 6 make a treaty
with Great Britain, by whloh they will be edabled
to defy the.free States.
The meeting was opened and closed by old op.
ponents of the Democracy, aided by Jefferson Da
vis, Albert G. Brown, and others. Col/Florence
did the rhetorical fire works, w usuaVand on his
motion, the meeting adjourned in procession to vi
sit the President, where, as I have stated, after
midnight, they .were addressed by that <• venera
ble public functionary” in a speech, some three
quarters of an hoar long. The President appeared
at the window under the portico with his notes in
his hand, and surrounded by a body-guard of paid
parasites. I.was surprised at the general modera
tion and oasdor of bis speech.' Heatarted out with
gConfessing that he had a great stumbling block in his
road in opposing regular Democratic nominations;
that he never had opposed any In his Ufa, therein
forgetting that he denounced the nomination of
John A. Gamble for Canal Commissioner, in 1340
nnd also that be was on the eve of opposing Big
ler in 1851! Then, as if to add insult-to injary,
ho proceeded to declare that all Democrats could
vote for Douglas or Breokiuridge and still be con
sidered Demoorats, inarmuoh as no regular nomi
nation hod been made at Baltimore ?
This latter assertion is proved to bo-bypooritical
by the faot that he is turning out every one of his
subordinates who does not awe*rfcaoppose Donglap,
on the ground that Douglas Is nof tho regular De
mocratic candidate! After ike President had con*
oluded, Howell Cobb appeared and delivered a vio
lent pro-slavery spoeoh. This Is the first time that
any such proceedings have taken plaoe at tho White
House Moderate ratification speeches have been
made by former Presidents, but'they have always
been dignified and courteous. No partisanship,
no bitterness has ever before been exhibited. Now,
however, disunion is boldly preached from the
windows of the Presidential mansion, the Presi
dent himself heads an army against ihe Union,
and his Secretaries come forward and applaud him
ito the echo. Words oannot make the record more
i disreputable. Occasional.

SBRRNAOE. AT TUB WHITE IJOUBE—SPKBtB OV
WashihotoN, July 10 —Senators Broun and Da
vit, and Colonel Tbomae B Florence, addressed
the meeting last night, in addition to those Already
mentioned. ' •*'
A letter was read from D. S Dickinson, saying
that be will support the nomination, not only be
cause be regards the candidates as personally and
politically .worthy, but beoause their nomination
. emanates from States whioh can give Democratic
volesin Iho electoral college, and because they are,
therefore, representatives of thB Democracy pad
ita principles.
l'bo President, on being serenaded at the White
Uouio, made quite a long speech. ITe expressed
bis gratification at the nomination of Breokinridge
and Lane, beoause they were good end tree men,
who would elwayß be found et the poet of
dnty, end, above all, beoause they were lovers of
the Constitution and the Union, and in favor of
equal rights to the people of all sections. He
gave the history of the establishment of tbe
two-tbird.Tnle in Rational Conventions, whioh
was in order to prevent anti-Demooratip
States from combining with a,few Democratic,
States to nominate a candidate' disagreeable to;
tboso States who would have to elect him. STotther;
Breokinridge nor Douglas got tho regular two
tbirds nomination, hence any Democrat was at
liberty to vote for either as be preferred.
The President then went at some length Into an
argument to show that eaoh citlien of any one
State heß tbe same right to the protection of bis
property in tbe common Territories with any ciii
sen of any other State. When tbe people of a
Territory form a State Constitution, then they eon
settle the question of slavery for themeolveß. This
is sonnd Democratic doctrine, and tbls beantifully
harmonizes with tho best interests of all. avoids
strife and tnrmoll. and obviates the difficulties
heretofore experienced in the case of Kansas.
- In ’conclusion, the President said that this wss
probably the last political epeoch bo should ever
make/ His posltlou rendered it Improper for him
to participate in the canvass, although hie heart
waeinit. He spoke of the long time that he bed
been acquainted with the oily of Washington, and
wished ail its citisens uninterrupted health and
prosperity.
Mr. Cobb, in a few remarks, expressed confi
dence in the success of the Breokinridge and Lahe
tioket in November, and urged all good Democrats
to labor zealously to that end.
WASittsoTON, July 10 —The Seoretary of lhe
Treasury beS invited proposals, to be rooeived till

government for the construction of a line or lines

.Filth Avenue la in eoßtasies, and- the tuft-hunt
ors are in great glee over the anticipated arrival
of the Prinoe of Wales. To foe sore, be only
comes as Baron Renfrew; bat what of that?—better
a prinoe * neog. than no prinoe at all. Tho papers
already are quarrelling as to what shall be done
with 11. R. H. The Tribune prays that he may
not be thrown in the way of the aldermanlo
“cattle,” while tho Herald editorially intimates
that there will be a fete ekampetre at Washington
Heights, similar to that given to the Japanese,
at whioh the prinoe, the reporters, and the news
paper artists will foe expected to assist. I pre
sume, however, that the young nobleman will
oome hero as quietly as any ether European gen
tleman would, and, after remaining a few days,
and looking at oar institutions, will leave as
quietly as he oame.
Whilfc tho upper ten are looking after H. R. H.
the lower million are buying powder., hiring can
non, and making other arrangements for the re
ception of America's darling Boy, John 0 Heenan,
who will arrive on Friday on the Vanderbilt. The
“ boys" will have a steamer to meet him, on which
there will be refreshments and music. There will,
In all probability, be a speech or two from Boole,
Bogie, and Van Tine, with an oration on the
American eagle by Wilkes. It is not determined
as to whether be will foe reoeived by the Mayor at
the City Hall or not; or whether the military will
turn out. In all probability. Rennet will .give
him a fete ehampetre at Washington Heights.

Hioks will he bung at B'dloe’s Taland on Friday,

used on this occasion is the same one which h»a
sent many human beings int* eternity at the Tombs.
Tt will be ereeted in fall view of the water, ami
the thousands anxious to witness the eight will all
have a floe opportunity. Hicks maintains a good
front, end seems to be totally indifferent as to hl9
fate. lie Is daily vulted by his wife and the
Sisters of Mercy His confession is also approtoh
ing completion. bat no visitors are allowed to bis
cell. Everything is conducted very privately, If
not with an eye toaeoreoy.
The prisoner has lost & little flesh since his con
finement, and is somewhat paler; but in general
appearanoe there has heon no remarkable change.
Hois still the same stolid ami indifferent pormnsge
that be was on tho day of his arrest, when his pro
testations of innocence had saoh an effect on the
officers os to almost znako them believo they had
tho wrong mao.
A boat, with Kicks and the officers on board, will
leave the Battery at half-past ten o’clock or there
abouts, on Friday morning,' and proceed to the
Island. A number of excursion steamers will
otrry passengers dewn to the Island to witness the
execution
By the lust accounts from Mrs. Sohum»ker, (7
o’clock A. M.,) whose murder was so nearly acoom<
p'ished on Monde? morning. In Seventy-first street
as already reported, she may yet lire. Since the
tragedy ooourred she has been attended by four or
fire doctors, none of whom think It possible for her
to recover. Mrs Schumnker has been unoonech-us
from the moment of receiving the deadly blows on
her bond, and in all probability her reason oven in
tbo remotest degree, will never be restorod.
I see by the Express that Sergeant Dickson,
one of nnr detectives, has arrived from the town of
Summit, New Jersey, bringing with him Miss
Caroline Sypher. a young lady living with her
parents in that town. Mis? Sypher Is supposed to
be ap important witness In the double murder
which occurred tn tbo Efvhteunth ward on Batur*
day night, the 80th ult On that day Mias Caro*
Hoe Sypher left her parents in Summit and osrae
to tbtacPy to spend the 4»h of July wi*h some
friendd. At the time Mr. Walton was shot this
young lady whs standing near, conversing with a
gentleman named Curds
She saw Mr. Walton fall, and at the same time
discovered the man who fired the pistol running
away. Mr. Curtis followed In parent , and his
cries of “rounder” attracted the attention of Mr.
Matthews, who joined in the chase, and being a
swift runner, soon passed Mr Curtis and was shot
when about to grasp the fugitive. Mr Curtis, on
seeing Mr Matthews fall to the pavement, stopped
almost immediately for fear of mo t ! n£ a similar
fate, and in the meantime the murderer kept on
and disappeared from bis view. Xhese witnesses
will be examined this afternoon.

The (-rent. Trot iietweeu Dora Tem
ple and Patcliem,
Tba great trot between Fldra Temple end George i
M. Patchen, for a pt»ree of $2 000, two-mile heat*
best two out of three, took place yesterday after*
noon, at the Snffolk Park Race Course, Delaware
oounty. The race attracted to the apot a large
number of spectators, probably some foor or five
thousand, who arrived upon the ground by way of
the Philadelphia, Wilmington, and Baltimore Bail*
road, which ran three .special trains, at one, two,
and three o’clock, the Darby Passenger Railway,
in vehicles, and a great many came on foot.
The trains of the Baltimore Railroad company
were crowded with passengers, so touch so that the
company, having put in service all their available
passenger cars, rigged np five freight oars, used for
carrying lumber, which were supplied with rough
pine board scats, These were all occupied with
men going to the ground. The three o’clock train,
altogether was nearly a square and a half in
length, and contained nearly a thousand passen
gers.
APPEARANCE OF THE GROUND.
Por more than an hour before ibe time fixed for
ibe raeo (4 o’clock) there was a large number of
persons scattered over the park, some on tbe large
stand in front of tbe “score,” others seated In
carriages of which there were from three to four
hundred within the enclosure, besides & targe num
ber outside. Dealers were selling lager beer, ice
cream, lemwnade, and other edibles and bibiblea.
while all over the enclosure were gathered little
groups, throwing away their money foolishly by
betting on sweat-ofoth. thimble-rigs, roulette,
i three-card monte, a ‘‘lottery.” and o»her devices
used bv gamblers to fleece the unwary of their
cash. Tbe gambling was carried on io ibe most
open and undisguised manner, tbe tables having
little piles of money spread out to tempt tbe foolish.
From tbe upper atary of the judges 1 stand "we
had a flue opportunity of witnessing the move
ments of the crowd, and especially the operations
of the gamblers. On the sweat-cloth and 41 thim
bles ” many bet as high as ten and twenty dollars
at, a tlmo, almost invariably losing their money,
but ibis seemed to. have little effect upon the
crowd, for a fresh supply of “ green ones ” seemed
to take tbe plaoe of tho>e who would retire after
being “ oleaced out.” Tbe lottery appeared to be
a favorite game. The chances were only a quar
ter. and during half an hour we counted upwards of
forty who came forward and invested theirquattero.
Qnt of this number, only throe won a prise, notwith
standing tbe oil-cloth table bore. In large le*tero.
the words, “ 12pri*fS—29 blanks ” The “ Wanks,”
of course, were plus the several amounts that the
infers were minus It was curious to observe the
effect that the winning of a small snm had upon tbe
three who were lucky enough to draw prises.
Thev immediately invested tbe money again, and
At tbe next or subsequent turn of the dioe.it all
reverted to the “bank” How people can be no fool
ish as to iD.vest.money in tricks of this kind la moat
unsceountflble. The infatuation was upon them.
They ventured, and In almost every oase lost their
money. Previous’to the rone, there was a phort
knock down between Wo. Morphy (who was tried
and acquitted for killing a man on board a Glooses*
ter ferry-boat a few years ego), and a vonng man
who seemed to be “ spoiling for a flvht” After
one or two blows had been exchangd, the specta
tors and special police Interfered and separated the
belligerents before much damage was done
*he betting upon th« ro«ntt of the ran* was very
ao*iye. -At first bets of $5OO to $BOOl and $l5O to $lOO
were freely made that Flora would win ihe-raee.-
and.met with ready takers. Before the bones
were brought out however, the bets were two to
one on Flora, wbiob was by all odds the favorite.
Nearly five 'o'clock, the bngie sounded, and the
horses were brought out. and trotted up and down
tbe course before tbe judves* stand, and each at-'
tracked groat attention Flora Is a neat, dapper

seen© of the greatest excitement and confusion.
The front of tbo judges* stand was filled by ex
cited men, who cursed and swore at them, and
threatened to pull them down. Those who had be*
on Flora were clamorous for it to he considered r

the start at the first heat. They contended al?r
ihat the judges had given the word “go.” at th*
start for the second heat, and that calling the
horses baek because Patchen ” broke up’* at the
