The orte , o iong-oxpootoa answer mo oorvmu uu ^ , a ^ serta his claims us to the preservation of his full Suzoru m rights . Thus tho establishment of an hereditary dynasty in aervia is disapproved of on the part of the Sultan , who only concedes Princo Michaere individual succession to his iUthor on the death of tho 1 alter . The prohibition of tlie residonoo of Mahometans in Sorvia , boyond-tho palo of the Belgrade fortress , is to bo maintained . The Servians uro not to be at liberty to f rame a now constitution for thomsolvos , though the Sultan is willing to send coinmissioneru to inquire into tho ' grievances complained of . ' In Italy , last week cloBed and the present oponcd with ono of those breathless pausoB which , in the very height , and fury of the storm , are more appalling than tho dirost eonUiot of clomontal Btrifo , Garibaldi ' a mysterioua withdrawal from tho soo . io of action , leuving tho command in tho hands of ono of his moat trusted ohiot ' s , wuu intorprotod to mean that a eudden and decisive blow would bo struck with irresistible . effect in nnoihor quarter . vVt this crisis appeared M . 7 < JrTmUjj ^ unot F"lo'tt ^^ in two niontlifl , bo t ' ilhor aomiilululv iVo » and iiiLiupmiduut , or / Vu&iria will again rulo , and this timo Iroin- Mesfthm to Turin . " Tho earliest intollige . nc' 0 of ( ho wock wita to the uil ' cct tliufc Uio Count and Oountoss Aquilu luul arrived afc Maraoillos , on board a Unuilian oorvotto , escorted by a Koapolitan stcmnorj on their way to Paris and London . Ono thousand live hundred Gnribuldiuns laid -Jiaonbiukoil in Oulabriu , and joiuod two thousand iiirturgonts , who luul withdrawn into tho mountains . Tho pvoparations flu- tho defunoo of Nauleu were continued ; und news from that city arrived that Colonel Cozens , with four thousand volunteers , had quitted Tuornnnn , and taken the direction of tho main lend .
' The- - National Hungarian fete passed oiT in perfect order , in con ^ sequence of the judicious measures taken by General Beuedek to ensure ' ¦ tranquillity .- The town of Pesth- w . as quiet throughout , the municipality liafing made excellent arraiigemeii is for proven ling any . disturbance . ¦ " , The Great Povvefa , in conformity with the wish of the 33 ritish Cabinet , had agreed to discontinue all further liegoliaUvas for including Spain in their number . The ; motive for the assassination of Prince Daniclo is said to be found in his opposition to the war party , which desires the complete inde 2 iendence of Montenegro . It appears , as if the murder epidemic is not confined to the British Isles . At the Court of Assizes of tho Aisne , a whole family of four persons , father , mother , son , aged 3 S , and daughter , 25 , resident at the village of Prouvais , have been charged with , and all but the father convicted of , four cases of child murder ; the victims being the -.-offspring" of the son and daughter , whose intimacy appears to have been known to their parenis . The brother and sister were condemned to death , and the mother to hard labour for life . A serious outbreak on the part of the negroes appears to have taken place in the Guano Islands of Sombrero , causing great excitement among the mcrcliants trading there . . Apropos of the intended meeting of the French Emperor and the Bey of Tunis , at Algiers , the Foiulre , a French man-of-war , proceeds to Tunis , there to be placed at tlio service of the Bey , who is believed to have strong tendencies for cultivating more intimate relations with European states . Three thousand soldiers , late in" the service of tlio , Duke of Moder . a , are stated to have entered the army of the Pope , giving rite to disturbances , which , however , have be < m suppi'eised . Ifcws from Naples has been received that two . companies , of dragoons , and a number of artillerymen have joined the insurgents at Foggia . A brig from Malta , with arms and ammunition ,, having been fired , upon off the Caiabrian coast , stranded , and was taken by the ^ Neapolitans . The long-expected blow in Italy has been struck . Garibaldi has made a swoop upon Sicily , j tfews comes froc-i Naples , under date oi ' August 21 st , that 13 U vessels had landed Garibaldi and his army at Bagnara , a few miles north of the fort of Seylla , and within easy i-t-ach of Faro , oil the Sicilian coast . Detachments had been previously disembarked at various points , and thus the insurgents ,-.-who joined Garibaldi ' s standard , have placed a force at his command enabling .. him-to . -attack Reggio , the liead-quartei-s of the Neapolitan army . A Provisional Government has been established at Potenza . Tlietelegrnph wires between Piilmi and . R-egg'io had been cut . There is no doubt that if Garibaldi have fair play the more favourable of the alternatives indicated in M . Grandguillot's 'letter recorded above , will soon be realized . We cannot lvirain , from . expressing a fervent wish that the only free countries in the world , England and America ( whose interests and ' pliitform" are in essence identical , whatever . .-variances there may be in matters of form ) , witl , if necessary , coiTibiiie , not , indeed , to interfere , but to prevent the -t-otteriuij despotisms of the Continent from interfering . News has subsequently arrived that Reggio has fallen . . Full particulars of the Syrian massacres have arrived , and humanity revolts , while credibility is severely tested by the ' harrowing" and sickening details . A sad and severe moral is taught by the sanguinary narrative of this foul work : —The . demoniacal excesses which always and everywhere have been tho fatal results of superstition and sectiuiiiniMii . True , that , these are but the inevitable and invariable concomitants ol ' u —certain ., low state of moral and intellectual development ; but this fact only renders nYore apparent the necessity of eratUt'utinp ; Iho causes oi " the mischief . Do away with superstition and sectarianism , in all their formi ? , and under cyery disguise , and the beneficent element of humanity remains , purged of bigotry and intolerance . The American papers just come to hand contain / ' sensation" articles and " screamers , " about tho Groat Eastern steum-ship . Wo . give ' the qiuntuplieato heading of ono in live dillbront sizes of type : — "riuireiings-at Sea—Tho Excursion 6 t tho Great Eastern—Fortunate escape of all on board—Tho Extremity of- British Fuirplay—The . public warned against tho Big Ship . " Then follows a minute ¦ dot ail of the gambols on board and tho " roughing it , " endured by tho pas « en .. rers , the full particulars of which have- alivudy been i > laco ( l before tlio'En ^ li-sIj public . Delicacy and refinement certainly do not appear to have Iktii the most prominent feat vires' in these nautical orgies .
