Their Last Hope. The Reading Gazette says the last hope of the many-huad Opposition is that the Charleston Convention will dissolve the Democratic party When the honest intel- ligent,and thorougly-infortned People of the United States reflect upon this fact, they will see how forlorn are the prospects of our political antagonists. Because ambi tious, aspiring, and hot-headed politicians here and there, who have been honored by the Democratic party and elevated to offi ces of distinction and trust, choose to take grounds on important national questions antagonistic J each other, or to promul gate abstract.theories opposite not only to each other, but to the well known tics...trines of the liennx-ratie party, the prophets of !gawk Republicanism and the other sect ion. of :the t opixkiition delude theneielves into the idle dream that the National Democ t :Ley will be broken up at Charleston!

"Swim' ham miray • worthier Awl Lhasa hr" may well be applied to the best of them. Let the "sensation" journals (the chief of which in New York has been busiest in this silly twaddle) continue then to prate about the coming "break-up" at Charles ton—let the unfortunate Opposition, split up, as it is, into fragments, echo these ephemeral prophecies--let the disaffected aspirants indulge the flattering fancy that they will have their own way or defeat the general will—we tell the latter that they will be able neither to rule or ruin atCharlo-- ton ; and that the only diswmfiture exhib. iced there will be the discomfiture onbose who may be predicting and striving for the destruction of the National Democracy. ( .ONGILISBION•L iNTIIIVLSTION.—Sermtor BWLLR. in a letter to the Tammany HaHeel- ebration in New York, says a great many good things upon tho political quottions of of the day, but none better than that con tained in the following paragraph tipi .11 the question of Congressional intervention in favor of slavery in the territories. I t em braces our views to the letter : "As for a code of Congressional hors for the benefit of one species of property in the Territories not necessary for the rest., I am emphaticallropposed to any such measure, and think the propeoitkin asbnpolitie as the effort, for it will prove vain and fruitleas. For what end, then, shall Congress late ? Whose rights have been violated in any of the present Territories ? ti t a herein have the people or the Legislature of any Territory attempted to nullity the Cemen t ut ion its expounded by the Supreme Court., or in any other way transcended their leo , - islative authority? I have heard of no melt case. Even Rankin, faetious and insubor dinate 'as the spirit in that Territory at times has. ed to be, has done none of these thin Then we are to legi.late on some speculative theory, in an tieipat ion of wren es which may never occur? But even if these wrongs had already been committed, the proper remedy is with the .ludieary. and not with Congress. Whoever imagines himself aggrieved the use of slave or other property in a Ter ritory, should seek retiree' through the t,,urtrs, and not through ("engross ; and further, should it at any time he _alleged that the Legislature of a territory has t parr' ',vended its authority, to the tirtrimenle r!I pm tub rigiitt, it will he for the Judienry. and not for Congress, to ascertain that thet. and by its decrees to vindicate the injured par ty. It is for Congress to give existawe to the law-making power of a Territory, but it is the province of the Judicary to deter mine the extent of that power, and restrain its abuse. Indeed, in the cases of Kamm and Nebraska, Deanne of difibrenosofopar, ion about the extent of' the power poisoned by Con Shia queeition was expressly ref to the court", shotild the oecaision arise for its derision: The authority of the loCal Legislature over the eoncenis of a Territory, under the policy in view, is re strained only by the Constitution, and that instrument will resitrain Congress do an equal extent.

What rights the members of this "Italian 1 Confederation" are to enjoy, what position the Pope will, as "Honorary President," occupy, whether the condition of the Papal States is to be improved in any respect, whether Venice is any better off than she was before the war, whether the Grand -Dukes are to be reinstated, how the King of Naples is to stand—what, in a word, is the full impart of this " Italian Confedera tion," and what part Austrian or French bayonets are henceforth to play in the Peninsula, are questions yet to be answerd. (noes tbe Times.) The anticipations which we expressed on Saturday last of the progress of events in Italy have been suddenly and fully met. The war in Italy has been ended, with out a Congress of the great Powers, by the victories of France and the wisdom or the fears: of Austria. The peace that. was broken in the end of April on the banks of the Ticino, has been restored again in the beginning of July on the banks of the Adige. The Austrian Emperor. who marched his armies to Sardinia in the Spring, bird of Lombardy and Venice, and supreme arbiter of Italy, withdraws them in the Summer within the narrow lines of a single Provence: and consent ing to hold his place in Italy as an Italian Prince, submits to meet, Italian Princes as his peers in a new 'onfederution.

The sym pathies of the awld in this great struggle were given not to the splendid soldier who humbled Austria a.t. Magenta and Solferino, hut. to the great sovereign who nobly dared to elsmse a vital principle in the policy of Europe, and to right with his sword, the ailing.' of years, which the sword had in_ flirted. ° ft M - U r When Sehastapool fell. and the news was received that the French Emperor had sought an armistice, the world was Aston , . i,hed. When, after the vietory of Solferi no, the intelligence was promulgated that he had asked for and obtained another ar mistice, when apparently in the very title of suece.c.s. it was wore astonished stall.— What evil it may now, when the news brought lsy the North Briton bat night iy known, that the Km Tors Louis Napoleon and Francis Joseph, sbnlonal interview in Vilafnuwa, on the II f this month, have coneluded a peace? And upon what terms? All Italy is to de elet•ated into a confed eration, with the Pope as hon orar y dent.

Such are the basis of the peraeo Lo. telogropbcxl to Paris by Louis Napoleon •Itimself. A startling result of the eompaign. truly, and one that reran+ with sTwealistive wonder the lan gunge of those brilliant proclamations which the French Emperor enunciated from Mi lan when he t'poke of thedawning hope* of Italian independence, and reminded his soldiers that the spiritiof their fstherswere looking down upon them from the heights of heaven approvingly on their efforts in behalf of liberty.
