In the first place, tho fact is not disguised by anybody in Italy, that there is a determination on j the part of the people of that country to rise and attempt to drive the Austrians out of Venetia. We say attempt, for we have little belief that they can do it without the aid of France. It will re- I quire something more than ardor, and even des- j perate courage, on the part of undisciplined troops j from Southern Italy and Sicily, or from all of I Italy that is not now under the sway of Victor i Emanuel, to cope successfully with the well dis- i ciplined Austrian troops now in Venetia, amount- I ing almost to 200,000, and who are still smarting I under the defeats they reeeived. at Magenta and j Solferino in 1859. Cavour and his party will try hard, no doubt, ! to restrain and delay the movement, if they can- I not entirely defeat it. That sagacious statesman , sees that there is an immense wor'lc of reconstruc- i tion and consolidation to be done, before the new I subjects of Victor Emanuel should think of go- ; ing to war with Austria. It is to be hoped that I he may succeed in inspiring the nation with the determination to act prudently and wisely in this i momentous matter. I The attitude of the Hungarians is in the high est degree defiant and alarming, if it be true, as the Vienna correspondents of the English papers represent, that they demand their old Diet, Hun garian troops only for their country, a National Guard, and a Hungarian Minister in the Cabinet of Francis Joseph. We may rest assured that no such demand as this will be listened to. But however this may be, we cannot doubt that the Hungarians are determined to rise, and will do so before many weeks have passed away, if they should see that Italy is going to rise at the same moment. The third sign of a coming struggle is, that the war spirit is reviving in Germany, and that the new King of Prussia manifests rather a warlike tone than otherwise in what he says. The diflS- cultifis between the Diet and Denmark in relation to the Duchies ot Holstein and Sleswic are again coming up, and Prussia shows a disposition to en act the part of Champion of the Diet, as she did ten years ago, and with no great homor to heraelt. Neither Russia nor Sweden will allow Denmark to be crushed; although the latter is not disposed to allow Denmark to encroach on the traditional rights of the Duchies. We are very much afraid that in some way Prussia will get into diflBculty before long,—perhaps through an aspiration for that ascendancy in the affairs of Germany which Austria has so long claimed, and so largely pos sessed, in consequence of the Hapsburgs having tor five centuries filled the throne, whilst the Empire of Germany remained. But after all, one of the most disquieting signs of the times is to see France still increasing.her navy, although it has long been greater than her commerce has demanded. Not only so; her ar mies are maintained on a war-footing, and there are, it is said, some manifestations of a dispositioa to accuniulate her forces in the* Northern and North-eastern part of the country. All these things, when taken together, arequite sufficient to make those who look upon war as one of the greatest calamities that can befall the hu man race, feel deeply concerned. The omens are csrtainly not as favorable for the continuance ot peace in Europe as we could wish. Louis Napo leon is the same mysterious personage that he has been the last ten years. Who can tell? He has humbled Russia; be has humbled Austria; he has raised up Italy. May it not be that he intends to liberate Hungary, humble Germany and Prus sia, and extend the boundary of France to the Rhine along al! the North-East, as he has extend ed it to the Alps, all along the South-East? N. Y. Journal of Commerce. Repudiatintj the Practice of Repudiation.— During a debate in the Georgia Convention on Saturday last, reference was made to the right of Georgia, under the law of nations, to declare void all contracts between the citizens of Georgia and the citizens of New York, in consequence of the lawless seizure of arms purchased for Georgians, by the police of that city. The exercise of the right claimed found, however, no advocates. Sev eral gentlemen maintained, on the-contrary, that the people of Georgia should and would meet every obligation resting upon them, even if due to the most virulent of Abolitionists. Their debt, it was said, would not be repudiated if war should actually occur. One member urged that it waa uiore honorable to pay an enemy than a friend; and Mr. B. H. Hill, in admitting the sanctity of contracts, said he “would even pay the Devil if he owed him.” Collection of the Revenue.—In reply to Foreign Ministers inquiring how the subjects of their re spective nations are to act in order to avoid all violations of the revenue lawsof the United States, and to escape injury from the anomalous state of things at Charleston, Mr. Secretary Black has stated that the right of the Tederal Government to impose duties on goods imported into the U- nited States is exclusive, and that the question whether the condition of things at Charleston will* or will not be regarded as a suflBcient reason for not inflicting the penalties incurred by the sub jects of foreign nations will be settled when it practically arises.—Rational Intelligencer. Groictli of Missouri.—In 1850 the white popu lation of Missouri, according to the Federal cen sus of that year, was 592,000; the number of slaves 87,000; and ot free persons of color 3,000.. Returns from the several counties in the Sate show the present population to be: whites 1,056,338, slaves 112,588, and free persons of color 3,902. '■The population of Mis.souri exceeds 1,100,000. The increase for the decennial term has been over seventy per cent. The Stars and Stripes not to he Given Up.— In his farewell speech in the Senate, yesterday, Mr. Slidell, of Louisiana, said the secessionists did not intend to give up the old flag. It belonged to the South as much as it did to the North. A hillock on the coast of Normandy, above Chateau Gaillard, has ju.st fallen into the sea, carrying with it the ruins of the old chapel of Richard Coeur de Lion, of which ail traces have now disappeared.
