The entrance of the French troops n masse into Rome did not take place until the 7th of July. On the 8th a procla mation from the Roman National Assem ble' announced the entrance of the French, and recommended abstinence from all ven geance as useless and unworth) the dignity of Roman citizens. Gen. Oudinot and his staffwere disgust ed by the national guard on his entrance into the city, they not rising or paying him the military salute due to his rank. The French soldiers had to pull down tne barricades themselves, in the absence of Roman laborers, and at dark the troops were consigned to their quarters. Garabaldi escaped from Rome with tf.n thousand men, and w as loudly cheertd as he passed out of the city. He had gone in the direction of Garsima, and it is proba ble would give trouble to any detachments of Neapolitans or Spaniards he might meet with. His reported intention is to invade the kingdom of Naples. A detachment of the French army Was sent in pursuit of him on the 4th. The Corsiere Mercantile, of Gnoa, ot the 7th, states that a governmant had been otttahlislipil at Rome, consisting of one Roman and two Frenchmen.

Upon second thoughts, however, after some hesitancy, he has entered into the required bonds, and has been liberated. Tl e issue raised is this: Have the criminal authori ties ot the State .the right to compel the attendance of the agents of the Post Oflice Department in this State, to bear testimony as to anv crimes perpetrated through the Post Office against the State, and to bring and lav before the Courts any letters in their possession proving such crimes. The laws of Congress make no provision for the case which has arisen, because it never entered into the minds of former Admin istrations that the action ot the General Government could become perilous to the safety of a State; that instead of being a protector of order and law, it should, in anv of its branches, be used as an instru ment of incendiaries, to carry out their schemes of insurrection and bloodshed. Now we know not what Postmaster Gen eral Collauier may do in the premises. Mr Kendall, one of his predecessors in the office, issued a circular to the Postmaster in tne rsoutnern csiaies, m cuing iiieui not to circulate incendiary publications through the Post Offices in those States. We should suppose that it a Postmaster can suppress a letter or document, he might, for the same reasons which justify its supprfssion, carry it into a Court, it) furtherance of the criminal laws of a State. Hut whether the Postmaster General shall pursue this course or not, we have no idea, that this State will flinch from protecting itself against the flagitious conduct of the Post Office, or its agents, within its limits. If her laws are not clear or stiorig enough for her protection, they will be made so. If the Federal Government thinks proper to attempt to shield it officers with privi leges and immunities incompatible with the peace of the State, let it do so One of two things will occur: they will have either to leave the service of the General Government, or suffer the penalties of our State laws, though life itself should be the forfeit. We would put a few questions to our readers, before closing this subject. How comes it that the very first fiuits of the existing Administration, - which the South lifted to power, has been the vigorous ex ercise of the only branch of tht Govern ment which directly reaches us the Post Olfice Department to assail and over throw our slave institutions? May not th? fact that we have Abolitionists in the offices of Vice President of the United States. Secretary of the I uterior, aud Postmaster General, by Southern co-operation, lead to the conclusion that the South is now ripe for all sorts of Abolition experiments? ,Iu the face of these results, cm any true Southerner, who, from mistaken views, added in producing them, do otherwise than abandon the Administration, and Abolitionism, stand by the South in main taining her rights and honor.

When the press of Canada commenced to agitate the subject of Annexation, it was thought to be a visionary suggestion.

All the advantages, present and remote, of incorporation vvith the American Union, is, in the Canadian papers favorable to the scheme, prominent ly set forth ami most complacently dwelt upon. And what is still more remarkable, the most loval portion, hitherto, of the Canadian press that portion which made our institutions constant themes ol ani madversion are now the most clamorous for annexation.
