      mechanical diplomatists are often moat at fault in their estimate of the present and their predictions of the future ; the reason is that their attention is solely engrossed by the puppets on the scene , and their superficial and so-called " practical" mind , are incapable -of penetrating below- the surface . Thus it happens that the real causes and springs of action by which-the motions of the puppets the actions of ministers and kings are prompted , entirely escape their observation . Foi * them the petty , intrigues of courts and cabinets are all in all ; o £ thegreat social evolution , of . which these comparatively insignificant doings are but the accidents and symptoms , they seem . utterly unconscious . It is as if a man should attempt to discover the atmospheric laws by watching the proceedings of a ship ' s crew in a storm . What is how being worked out in the present " transition " state of society , is the principle that a people and individuals shall dispose of themselves a 3 they ehoo ? e , not as somebody else clioosrs . A dynasty has not a whit more right to dictate to a nation how it-shall bj governed , than Jones has to dictate to I 3 rown how he shall occupy himself for tlie rest of his life . This i 8 the practical controversy now being worked out between ] Deople and despots , and there can be but one issue . Its satisfactory settlement is only a question of time . Dynasties and diplomatists may complicate and embarrass it for a period , but . that period is short , and tho mere by-play of such agents quite a secondary consideration . With the opening of this week news arrived that tho four G-reafc Kuropea ' n-Powers had refused to recognise the blockade of G-aeta ; England remaining silent on the subject . We aL ? o learned that Pallavieini had , in official laiiguage , . ' " -resigned , " and in jDlain English ben dismissed , with his secretary Cararite . Tin ' s is significant . In tho j > resent position of affairs the interests of the Sardinian dynasty and the interest of the Italian people are iri some measure idehtified ; but the substantial and . permanent interests of a people can never bs iii the long run . identical with " legitimacy , " in however mild and diluted a form . In Italy the great principle that peoples , like individuals , are at liberty to dispose of them ; selves as they please , riot as somebody else pleases , seems typified and embodied in Garibaldi and the inore advanced . Liberals ; while the opposite principle is incarnate in the dynasties and diplomatists upon the scene .: A foretaste of Italian ' , freedom ; of a rather strange quality was given , it must be confessed , in . Pivllayiclni s order tpMazzini to quit the country ^ for that is what it virtually was ; The . most arbitrary measures of the Frenchand Austrian Grovernments vrero in principle not a shade different from -this > Those two principles arc impersonated in Pallavieini , . a ' n . d . tho .. in . fcc » clbcl . > ic'ti . u' : df ; proseHpiio . ! i ' cariii & into collision , with ia result that augured well for tho success of justice and right—the dismissal of the former from ; pillce . ¦ As we are gpin" to press with this portion of the papeiv news reaches iis fro in Turin that . tire resignation : of Pallayicini is announced but not eonfifined . Des-; pktGhG 3 from Naples a ; nndunce that a fresh attapt of the Royal troops had been repulsed . Count Amari , representative of Sicily at Turin , had resigned . King Victpr 3 Ernmanuol was to be at Chieti ion thp 18 th inst . As the week progressed we learned that his . dismissal notwithstanding , . ^ hp pro-iDiotatpr of Naples continued in o / Iice , while the departure , o f Mazzini had not been enforced * so that a sprt ^ qf compromise would appear , tip have been procaading .

      Winspeare , lias signified liis resolution to withdraw , leaving his secretary as a channel for any comtnunications that may be necessary ; it also appears that the King of Naples has determined to trust his cause once more to the foi-tune of war in a decisive battle . The conflicting rumours afloat on the events in Italy have formed a subject of newspaper ridicule and criticism . We learn from Naples that the decree of the Pi-OrDictator of Sicilv convoking the Provincially Assembly , had been cancelled . The decree cbJivoking the popular assembly of Naples fur the 2 lst hist ., in order to vote upon , the question of annexation , had been extended to Sicily . Pallavieini and the Ministers remain in office . The reasons being popular demonstrations , and the proximate arrival ' of "Victor Eminaiiucl The " difficulty" between France and Switzerlandseems about endin « in sinoke , less formidable than that of fire-arms . Tlie last intelli" -eni't ' was , that Switzerland was going to inquiro into ¦ ¦ the case of alleged maltreatment of a French subject at Sion , in tlie Vulais . Walker , the American adventurer , hns , itaj ^ pears , been sliot in reality , after a temporary respite . We hear from Madrid that judicial proceedings had been com- , menced against the authorof the attempt on the life of the . Queen . TJio man , whose nunic is Kodriguc ticivia , had confessed hid crime , anci declared that lio was employed by Nunoz Pradc . o , a deputy of the Cortes . From China intelligence readied us early in . tho week , that Mio allied troops rcacliod tho Pciho on the 1 st of August , attacked the Tartar camp on the 12 th , with easy and immediate success , and had presented themselves before the . Taku forts , whioh they intended to attack on the . 15 th ; and where the Chinese seemed prepared to stand their ground . From GliU 3 an and Pehtfliig reports Have reachotl us by no means creditable , to the discipline arid humanity of the K-itropean forces . It is' stated that the practice of looting has been prevalent to a disgraceful ¦ . extent . S , pnio trading junks , moreover , had been destroyed by a g . uu"boatj as pirates . - -Oa . taking , possession ' . of tho Peiho forts the troops narrowly escaped being blown into tho air by some mines that had . been laid fortliem . ..
