TUESDAY, JUNE 18, 1861.
Death of Count cairout.
The last news from Europe is that Count
Cavonr, prime minister of Victor Emmanuel,
and undoubtedly one of the most astute of mo
dern statesmen, has suddenly been called
away. He was taken ill on the last day of
May, and died oil the 6th of June. His death,
at any time, would be a loss to Italy, but, at
the present crisis, it is almost irreparable: It
was his prudence and judgment which, re
straining the impetuosity of his royal master,
actually held Garibaldi in check, and hitherto
prevented Austria from having any thing like
a fair pretext for again carrying war into
Italy.
Count Camillo di Cavour, born in Turin in
1809, was second son of a merchant in Nice,
who was ennobled by Charles-Albert, Ming of
Sardinia. Educated in the Military Academy,
he quitted it with the rank of captain In the
artillery. Alter this, he obtained an appoint
ment in the household of the Prince of Carig
nan, which he did not long retain, owing to
some difference with his patron, who was also
a gallant man, about a lady. Next, he assist
ed his father in the cattle and grain trade, and
thus acquired some practical knowledge. of
business. After this, he devoted several
years to foreign travel, more especially in
Switzerland, France, and England, studying
their institutions and manners. He returned
in 1842, a nominal Liberal ; but his first step,
as member of the Agrarian Association, was
to protest against Its assuming a political cha
racter, and when, at the election for officers,
he was not chosen to any position, he de
nounced the body to Charles-Albert .as a nest
ofJacobins, who desired to convert it into a
Constitutional Assembly. At that time,
Charles-Albert was as despotic a ruler as any
prince in Italy, and very nearly suppressed
the Association. Ile circumscribed its rights,
deprived it of the power of electing its own
president, and summoning its more active
members before himself, for formal reproof
and caution, put them under the surveillance
of' the police.
Count Cavour was one of the largest landed
proprietors in Piedmont. When Prince
Borghese, Napoleon's brother-in-law, was
Governor of Turin, Cavern. (the father) suc
ceeded in becoming necessary to him, and
profited largely by purchasing national pro
perty at low prices for cash. One of his pur
chases was the land belonging to a suppressed
abbey in the territory of Vercelli, which now
forms the principal estate of the family.
When the Napoleon dynasty fell, the elder
Cavour was discountenanced by the restored
dynasty, until Charles-Albert gave him a con
fidential office, in the police, and while thus
placed he carried on an immense trade in
cattle and grain, with great success. His son,
whose death we have jest recorded, also took
excellent care of the main chance, and, in
deed, boldly justified his acquisitiveness by
declaring that he who enriches himself en
riches his country. His enemies used to say
that a great banker was lout in him.
Until the year 1847 Count Oavour contrived
to keep out of politics, though exhibiting a
leaning towards the Absolutism which, up to
that time, Charles-Albert asserted. There
commenced in Turin an agitation for consti
tutional reform, of which a new journal, La
Conceit. ha, was the organ. Cavonr speedily
PFVIMD93I' ilihrtitAgamattftn Ibliurred
a liberal journal, 11 Risorgintinto, in con
junction with Count Cesare 'Bulb°, and him-
self superintended the politico-economiesl
department, giving it a strong bias in favor of
Free Trade. During the struggle of Pied
mont with Austria, in 1548-0, flavour's jour-.
nal was neutral at first, but, shortly before
the battle of Novara, became patriotic, and
breathed the warmest aspirations tor Italian
independence. Up to that time it had de
clared simply for such a Constitution as that
of England. Cavonr himaelf became promi
nent in the most democratic circles, and de
livered the moat ultra-liberal speeches.
Entering the Sardinian Chamber of Deputies
in 1849, just before the abdication of Chexles-
Albert, Cavonr played a cautious, waiting
game, sat among the Conservative members,
and, after a time, endeavored to form a middle
party, consisting of moderate Democrats and
Liberal moderate& He succeeded, and headed
this patty to his death. From his entrance
into politics, he was in favor of an alliance
with England.
In 1849, soon after the accession of Charles-
Albert, Cavour entered ollee, under the Mar
quis d'Azeglio, as Minister of Agriculture and
Commerce, and, soon after, of Marine and
Finance. At the head of the Finance de
psatment, he endeavored to repair the in
jury caused by an unhappy war, and to restore
the equilibrium of revenue and expenditure.
In 1852, disagreeing with his colleagues, he
retired from the Ministry for a brief apace, but
was recalled in November of the same year,
when the Marquis d'Azeglio retired, and then
succeeded Mat as President of the Council—
thus becoming Prime Minister.
In this new capacity, with almost unlimited
power, Goma (savour endeavored to carry out
some of the liberal principles with which be
had become imbued during his residence in
England and his study of its system and ineti-
Wiens. Sustained by a respectable par la.
mentary majority, he succeeded in securing
the liberty of the press, freedom of speech,
extension of education, and full religious tole
ration. He placed the rights of the State
against the privileges of the Church, abolished
mar/main, and deprived the Clergy of the
monopoly of public instruction. This policy
pleased the monarch and the people'of Pied
mont, but drew down the thunders of the ,
Vatican. Theae, however, did not alarm Count
Covent., who pursued his course with rush sin
gular pertinacity, that the attention of Europe
was attracted to the Kingdom of Sardinia.
With singular ability, Cavonr succeeded in
placing his country in alliance with England
and France, against ,Russia, in 1855, and,
borrowing a large sum of money from Eng
land, placed a Sardinian army in the Crimea,
side by side, with the French and English
I orce a.
At the Peace-conferences held in Paris in
the spring of 1856, Sardinia was represented
by Cavonr, who took (or rather made) an op
portunity of exposing the misgovernment of
the Italian Duchies under Austrian alliance,
of showing the evils of having the rentitical
States continually occupied by foreign troops,
of protesting against the tyrannic rule of the
King of Naples. At this crisis, when Cavonr
bad great difficulty, at drat, in obtaining even
a hearing, he displayed great eloquence, won
derful boldness, and acute reasoning power.
Constantly opposing Austria, be generally
supported the French policy against that
Power, and arrayed public opinion on the side
Of enslaved Italy.
After the attempt to assassinate Napoleon
111., in January 1868, Count Cavonr, at the
request of France, carried through the Sar
dinian legislature, a statute for trying and
punishing political refugees who should con
spire against the lives of foreign sovereigns.
On New Year's Day, 1858, when, before the
assembled foreign ambassadors at the Tuileries,
Napoleon publicly expressed his condemna
tion of Austrian policy in Italy, which was are
cepted as a declaration of war, this was under
stood to have been suggested by Omar,
whose policy was farther manifested, exactly
a month later, by the marriage of Prince Na.
poleon to the eldest daughter of the King of
Sardinia. Then foliewed the War in Italy,
brief and brilliant, by which Victor Emmanuel,
strongly aided by France, added the Duchies
of Tuscany, Parma, and htodeua to hie King
dom, and abso obtained the eastan of Loin
bardy—set off, indeed, by the surrender of
Savoy and Nice to France. Immediately
after the close of the War, Cavour resigned
office, July, 1809, which be bad held, without
interruption, since 1852, except during a short

period in April, 1855, when he retired to facili
tate an arrangement with Rome, then believed
possible, respecting the relations of the Mo
nasteries to the State. The negotiation failed,
and Cavonr retired to ofilce a few days atter
his tetitement.
Cavour resumed his position as head of the
Sardinian Government in -.tannery, IBBo,also
performing the duties of the Foreign and Home
Ministers. In 1800, Garibaldi's expedition,
certainly known to, and favored by, Victor
Emmanuel, annexed Sicily and the Kingdom
of Naples, together with further portions of
the Pontifical territory, to Sardinia. In the
Italian Parliament, which deliberated in Tien
during the early part of the present year, da
vour's supremacy was unabated. He had a
difficulty with Garibaldi, who felt anger be
cause a contemplated inroad on Venetia was
resisted by the Government; but the tact and
influence of Victor Emmanuel happily suc
ceeded in restoring amicable relations between
the two great Italians—the Statesman and the
Soldier.
Count Cavour's illness Was Wet. He was
01 a very full habit ; a man of pleasiire in all
senses of the term; fond of high living, and
took very little exercise. He was not a little
proud of some personal resemblance to the
flrst Napoleon.
He was a powerful parliamentary speaker,
with a strong flow of high eloquence, when ex
cited, and all Sir Robert Peel's remarkable
clearness in stating a ease. At this munch
his loss to Italy, which his tact and talent had
mainly established as an independent kingdom
—already acknowledged as such by England,
Portugal, and some other Powers—may be
considered as a great piiblic calamity. It win
be . difficult to find an adequate successor—a
Judicious and wise, yet liberal statesbian, able
to guide the great Italian 'people in thelinew
path of independence and prosperity.

Dry-Goods Credits,
Ma. EDITOR The injustice and evil con

lament with dry-goods dealers for years,and
efforts have been repeatedly made to rduce
them to something like reasonable propor

son of this I think we bate fin the fact that
probably three-fourths of the dry-goode best
ness isforeed, and is founded upon the pride
and caprice of human nature. Here is the
reot of the evil. In order to force large quan
tities of a metchandise not testy needed upon
the people, extraordinary inducements ate
held out to make sales. Among these in
ducements, the most potent and pernicious is
that of giving long credits; by which both

Prior to the firing of the tresseling, and of the
Government buildings, large quantities of corn,
rye, and oats, which had been collected as horse
feed, were emptied from several oars in which
they were contained into the river; the object
being to obtain the immediate use of the oars for
the transportation of more important Stores from
the town. It was this destecotten whieh gave rise
to the report that large quantities of provisions
were east into the river ; but I have the authority
of an intelligent resident of the town, who wit
nessed the entireproeeeding, for saying that,
though provisions of all kinds wore abundantly on
band, no portion of it, with the exception of two
oar loads of sour bread, was destroyed. On the
contrary, two lengthy trains of oars, the first to
leave the town on Wednesday night, were entirely
appropriated to the oonveyanee of army stores.
Another gentleman, a citizen of . New York, who
had been detained at Earlier's Ferry for two weeks
in consequence of his Inability to produce such
vouchers of " soundness " as would entitle him to
an exit passport, informed me that some time ago
a large quantity of Sugar inlhogalleads, and coffee
from the West, consigned to Baltimore, was seized
In transit at the Ferry, with the intention of ap
propriating it to the use of the troops there. Some
thing about the consignment excited the emulsion of
Col. Jackson, who caused both the coffee and sugar
to be anaJyzud,}when, to the horror and indignation
of the commandant it was discovered to be poisoned.
They were consequently burnt within the army en
closure on Tuesday last. This statement is aup
ported by that of a resident of Sandy look, an
employee of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad, who
adds that on the enoceedingi morning, Wednesday
last, twenty-seven very large sacks of coffee, weigh
ing, he thinks, about 200 pounds each, were brought
up by a freight train to Point of Rooks, and brought
from Mende to Harper's Ferry upon hand ears,
propelled by men specially engaged for the service.
Ile states that upon reaching the bridge, the men
were requested to wheel their freight over into the
town, bat this they sturdily refused to do, saying
they were afraid of being pressed into rervioe. The
poieoning story is very improbable
Among the articles of military provender, in the
destruotion of which the utmost vigilance was ex
hibited, were whisky and liquors of all kinds.
Score. of barrels of the former were destroyed do.
ring the period of the occupancy of the town. The
contents of two barrels were emptied into the Po•
tomao as recently as Wednesday last.
EVAOVATION or HARPZIL'S PlLany.
The evacuation of the town was begun late on
Wednesday night, when two regiments, who had
received orders in the afternoon to hold themselves
in readiness, took their departure afoot la the di
rection of Obarlestown Early the suctieeding
morning general orders were issued for the entire
force to prepare for an immediate departure, and
the baggage wagons, which to the number of about
560, had been collected from among the ferniers of
the surrounding country during the previous fort
night, were heavily laden with army stores camp
equipage, ltc., and left about ten o'olook on Thura
day morning, escorted by two regiments of in
fantry. One hour later and the general move
ment of the troops was commenced ; tents were
strut and were placed with all the remaining
stores and ammunition in a large number of oars,
which had been collected for their transportation,
and were thus conveyed to Charlestown, as Is sup.
raged.
The Sick to the amount of about 160, and a re•
giment of infantry, also left the town by the Win
cheater Railroad, the remainder pursued their
journey afoot. One full regiment of Virginians,
numbering, it is estimated, about 1,100 men, took
the road to Leeeburg, which windi around the
mountain, but whether they continued on their
march thither, or took the route to Charlestown,
at its intersection with the former road, could not
be aseertained. By midnight on Thursday, the
main body.of the army, numbering, it is variously
estimated, trona 14,000 to 17,000 men, had left
Harper's Ferry. The rear guard, comprising one
regiment of Mississippians, and the Kentucky re
giment, together. with detaehments from several
- Virginia regiments, remained behind at the en
ounpment on the heights of Bolivar, apparently as
=nob for the purpose of soPeriltiondieft the work
of deetroying the government property, as of pro-
Leaking the rear of the army. Abort noon on
Saturday these troops also retired by way of the
Winchester road, and Harper's Ferry wee entirely
free of military.
The troops were said to be very. well armed, a
large portion of them wills Mincesippi and Ten
-
Donee rifles, both of which are adapted to the use
of the Minis bullet. Previous to leaving on Thurs
day night, about one .hundred flintlock muskets,
belonging to a Company from CharlettoWn who
had been supplied with - Minie muskets the day
previous, were thrown into the Potomac. A num
ber of them were recovered by eltisens on Satur
day. Several of those whiob I saw, and which
had been sold at the liberal rate of fifty eenta eaeh,
were stamped '" Harper's Ferry, 1810," and seem- I
ad to be in °soot/eat order.

The Maryland Heights were abandoned by the
Kentuckians on Wednuday forenoon ; a person

could see, retreated behind two Small farm houses.

presented another bloody scene. Bodies dotted

one boyish, delicate looking fellow lying on the

band was pressed on the wound from which his
lifeblood had poured, and the other was clenched
in the grass that grew near him. Lying on the
ground was a Testament which bad fallen from

[From the New York Times, yesterday.)
The " saucy little schooner" Savannah, the
first privateer, and the first prise among the
licensed pirates of Jeff. Davis, continued to attract
much attention as She lay at anchor, yesterday, Off
the Battery, with the 801:11:46012 flag flying at her
main topmasthead, under the Stars and Stripes
Crowds thronged the Battery, to get a riew of the
vessel, while others, wishing to have a more par
ticular Inspection, hired boats and went alongside.
These visitors becoming too numerous for the com
fort of the officers in charge, they were at last
obliged, politely, to refuse them admission on
board. She was inspected, however, with the
greatert curiosity, and ell manner of eitlestionr
were asked touching the history of the craft and
of her capture. The mark of one of the Perry's
shots, whioh graced the Equaresail stay, within six
inches of the foremast, attracted particular atten
tion.
By the politeness of Lieutenant hfcCook, our
reporter was allowed to copy the letter of marque
