But all is now over. Francis ll has done his best and his worst, and it has delayed and not changet‘l the event. The Siege of (beta has been an useless and senseless ccntlict.â€"â€" Every man who has tallen during these live weary months has been murdered for the warmest of reasons- to satisl‘y the point of hott- or. We in England saw this treat the lirst. and the Prince who has more than any one else hoped to prolong the struggle must have seen it also. Those who watched the atlaiis of Italy from a distance knew how impossible it was that the Royal power, once overthrown in the Two Sicilies, could ever he rehabiiitat- ed by the successes of Guam. W’hen at l’al- ermo, 18.000 Neapolitian troops surrendered to 1.400 Garibaldinians the Government of the Bonrbons crumbled to the ground in the eyes of Europe. Such an army it was justly 4 thought must argue a political system and a l ruler whom nothing could save. Ever since. l the same spectacle hasbeen continually re- peated. The army, the fleet, the civil De- partments, the Church and even a portion of the Royal family, deserted to or endeavored to make terms with the enemy. The Bear-- bons could never be restored, for there Was nothing left through which they could rule.l Some priests in the country districts. with the peasantry they tauqht, were theonly Bourbon partizans left in the Kingdonr Had no tot- eign power interfered all would have been at :peace in a few weeks. But the French Em- peror thought fit to show his symra'hy with the Royal cause. We have been told by the ‘ Moniteur ’-â€"'-and the statement has been re- peated from imperial lipsâ€"that Napoleon was actuated only by pity for one who at an early age had met with a great calamity. and that he desired only to insure the personai safety of Francis and his devoted Queen. But with all respect for the Emperor’s talents, We must take leave to say that if these were his only _ motives his conduct was singularly ill-Judged. I There can be no doubt that-everymau tn'ltaly .Constitutionalist, Republican, Uitramontane, ‘jpr Royalist,~.has interpreted the presence of .-mnirai Barbier :de Tiuan at Gaeta as asap- } port to the cause of the Bourbon monarchyL-â€" As soon as it was knowntnat the French were interfering back came some of the European ‘ Diplomatic Corps whohad previously - aban- I . defied the fallen King.

On the day that the French fleet left the doom of the pace was sealed. It is, of course to the credit of the besieged that they have been able to protract the defence for three weeks longer, and it may be that Francis II. and his advisers have had reasons for keeping their hold on Italian territory for as long a period as possible.â€" But the fall of the place within a linked time was certain from the day that the Sardinian fleet was free to blockade it. and the army of Cialdini could act without fear ofofl‘ending the Imperial arbiter. According to news receiv- ed this morning the place had been surren-j dered yesterday: Cialdini was already in oe- cnpation of Mount Orlando, which commands it : and probably as we write, the last strong- hold of the Bourbon King on the Italian Con- tinent is in the hands of the Italians. and he himself is steaming tranqmlly across the Mediterranean to whatever land he has chosâ€" en for his easy and luxurious exile.

Tne English and Irish papers abound in harrowmg details of the disasiers. “ At Bray,” says the Dot lin Freeman’s Journal, “where the storm raged with no less fury, one of those heroic needs which exalt human nature was performed hy James Lacy.

Along the Northern shores, as might have been exriected, the scene was still more harrowing, if one terrible disaster could he surpassed in horror by another.â€" From Howtn to the month ot the Boyne, the coast is strewed with the fragments of wrecks. Several vessels, some of them of huge ton- age, were driven ashore, and of course. went to pieces. They attempted to heat off, but that dreadful northeaster forbade escape, and they broke Up. The crews are mostly re-~ ported to have escaped, but one very sad 0c- currence, in which every man on board per- ished, took place in the afternoon of Saturday at Skcrries. A large schooner-rigged vessel struck on the rocks, and went down in deep5 water.
