INTERVIEW BETWEEPr TOE TWO MOWABCHfc The following translation, from "Revac des deux Mondes," is a description of the celebrated interview between Henry VIII. of England, and Francis I. of Francc, call the "meeting on the field of the cloth of gold," and furnishes some ftriking points of contrast and resemblance to the recent interview of Villafranca, held between the equally sinister and treacherous monarchs, Francis Joseph of Austria and Napoleon III, of France:

Francis having succeeded in obtaining the not wholly disinterested friendship of Henry VIII, with whom he concluded a treaty called "the Treaty of London," in order to cement the union still more closely, sought a personal interview with him.

The interview was to take place on the territory which seperatcd the dominions of the two kings, between Ardrcs and Calais. In his eagerness for the meeting, Francis sworo that*he would not cut his beard until the desired day should arrive, and Henry, not wishing to seem behind hand, made the same vow, but not being as anxious to go to the continent as Francis was to sec him there, very unscrupulously broke it, which much offended the French Court, which considered it a bad omen but the English ambassador re-as-nured them, in behalf of his loyal master, saying that "affection lay in the heart, not in the beard." ilenry still delayed his departure for Francc, waiting to receivc, previously, the nvowed enemy of Francis, Charles V. of Spain and not till after his leaving by land, did Henry fix the time for the interview, which was to take place in the early part of June, 1520. Henry arrived in Calais on the 1st of June, accompanied by Queen Catherine, and followed by Cardinal Wolscy and the officers of state, and Bishops of England. The King's fleet brought to FralfiC

Arrived on the first, of June, one from Calais, the other from Ardrcs, Ilenry and Fraiiem immediately sent to each other visitors of the highest rank, both from their court and council. Six days were passed in preparing for the meeting, and nil, even the smallest minutia, was prearranged with almost suspicions caution. It

He conducted his Court, to the castle of Ardrcs, and was accompanied by his wife, Queen (Maud, his mother, the liuchess of Angoulcme, and his sister, the Dw^Wiisof Alencon. They, with himself, composed that IvriMiaut rinity of wit and grace, sung by poets and appealed to by ambassadors, lie also brought, thither four Cardinals, the haughty Constable of Jiourhou, Admiral Honvivate, Chancellor du Prat, and all the great officers of the kingdom. 15y his orders there were erected tents, covered with gold and silver cloth, hung with velvet and silk, and on these tents were displayed the

arms of

France,

and the banners "of all the princes and nobles who accompanied him. In the midst rose the royal tent, surrounded by golden statue of St. Michael, which, reflecting all the rays of the sun, rendered still more brilliant, the. gold and silver covered tents. Nothing could_ ejual the splendor of this re-union, and .since designated "the meeting ot the tield ot the cloth gold." It was evident that each sought, to dazzle more than to please, and that courtly etiquette prohibited all cordiality.

They slowly dccended the little hills, which by a gentle slope led to the pleasant plain of Valdore, on which was crccted a tent to receive them. They rather resembled two knights ready for combat, than two Kings going to hold'a political interview.

Their escort halted at a certain distance from the tent, and seemed, as it wcrc, to watch over the two monarchs, not permit

never shall my eyes behold a Prince for whom I-have more affection." They then examined their treaties agreed upon the day before, and by which the Dauphin France was to marry the daughter of the King of England, Francis paying, at two terms of May and November, the sum of two million eight hundred and sixty thousand francs, until the still remote celebration of the marriage should take place.-— During the reading of the treaty, in which, according to diplomatic etiquette, Henry was styled King ot England, Ireland and France, Henry remarked with delicate grace, "I will omit Fratoce, for I should lie if I said so while you are here but he was careful not to omit' it in the treaty, and at a later period was ambitious to make a reality of the title, and even made use of it as a plea for invading France.— Having conferred for some time,they drank wine together, as was customary, and then mutually presented and complimented the Lords and officers of their respective courts, the King of Francc advancing and embracing the English Nobles, and Henry the VII I. those of Francc.

A SERMON OF THE REVOLUTION. The following sermon was preached on the eve"of the battle of Drandywine, September 10, 1789, by Rev. Joab Trout, before a large portion of the American army, Gen. Washington, Gen. Wayne, and other leading officers being present. It is difficult to read its stirring words, without feeling the blood tingling in one's veins:

Soldiers, I look around upon your familiar faces with strange interest. To-mor-row we will go forth to the battle for need I tell j'ou that your unworthy minister will march with you, invoking God's aid in the fight? Wc will inarch forth to battle? Need I exhort you to fight the good fight to fight for your homesteads, for your wives and children?

My friends, I might urge you to fight by the galling mcnlfries of [British wrong.— Walton, 1 might tcii ypu of your father butchered in the silence of nigiit on the plains of Trenton, I might picture his gray hairs draggled in blood I might ring his death shriek in jour cars!

Sehnirc, I might tell you of a butchered mother the lonely farm house, the night assault, the roof in flames, the shouts of t'ne iroopers ns they despatch their victims, the cries for mercy, the pleadings of innocence for pity. I might pstint all this again in the vivid colors of the terrible reality, if 1 thought your courage needed such wild excitement..

But T. know you arc strong in the might, of the Lord. You will march forth to battle on the morrow with light, hearts and determined spirits, though the solemn duty of avenging the dead, may rest, heavy on your souls.

And in the hour of battle, when all around the darkness is lit by the lurid (.annon glare or the piercing musket flash, when the wounded strew the ground and the dead litter your path, then remember, soldiers that (iod is with you The eternal God fights lor you! He rides on the battle-cloud! he sweeps onward with the march of the hurricane charge God, the awful and the iniiuitc, fights for you, and will triumph

THE AIJSTKIAN'S DESCItlI»E1. We extract the following from a Vienna letter to the Boston Post:

While the Austrians arc drinking their Mertzen-becr and smoking their mcerschmons over the descriptions nnd reflections touching the agriculture, scenery, and social life among those .semi-Orientals.— On the banks of the Danube you have evidences all around yon of the East.

fact is, the Anstrisn-Italian war is looked on by the people of this kingdom as an affair of the Emperor's. There is the differcncc between a despotic and a free government. Under a free constitution, as in Great Britain or the United States, cach citizcn feels an interest in the power, dominion and prosperity of the State.— All through Germany, and I believe here in Austria, the people look on the posses-

Francis hastened to express his cordial feelings to Henry VIII., and yielding to the tho't uppermost in his mind, offered him his aid and support, in the hope of gaining his. "Dear brother and cousin," said he, "I have taken much trouble to sec you, and you will conclude, I hope, that I am willing to aid you with all the fiefs under my domain." Henry eluded engaging to aid Francis by not admitting that ne had any need of his assistance. He confined himself to assuring him of his friendship, and he even made that conditional. "I frare neither in view," said he "your kingdom nor jour fiefdoms, but the faithful and constant execution of the treaties concluded by us. If you observo them,

The people are so badly taxed that every sourcc of expenditure to the State is looked on with hostility aud grumbling.

But while the news of the defeat of Solferino was received with calmness, the prospect of a peace gives cvideut joy to all. The fact is, Austria is nearly bankrupt, and if the war had continued twelve months, the wisest people here say she would find it impossible to feed her armies. Among those who know the Austrian soldier well, the fact that he is defeated oncc, twice, or ten times, does not argue that he is dispirited or discouraged. The Austrian soldier is a fighting machine, and a very good piece of machinery of his kind he is, too. He has not the enthusiasm of the Frenchman, or the moral qualities, or rather the patriotic feeling of the English or American soldier. He fights because it is his duty to fight, because he is paid to fight, because he is drafted into the army, can't get away, and must fight. If

he is defeated to-day, and docs not get bis head shot off, both knees unjointed, or his neck dislocated, lie camly sits down, smokes his pipe, drinks his beer, and goes into the field to-morrow with just as much or nearly as much chance of success as if he had never been defeated. The fact is, he does not fight for his county, nor for glory, even, but because it is his trade and mission to be a soldier. 'r

REDDAT INCOLUMEM. [From the New York Times.]

The South has lost a citizen, and Ireland, doubtless, is about to recover a rebel. Mr. John Mitchel has hurled away his fruitlers pen in scorn, and sets sail once more for Europe, not of course, as wc presume, for the dominions of her Britanic Majesty, in which the Guelph and the goal still deform, the accursed soil, but probably for the revolutionary Romagna, or for the Convention at Zurich. Slavery has refused to kindle at his voice into glory slaveholders have declined to subscribe to his journal and the Union has not so.much as quacked at the thunder of his nostrils.— The apostle must therefore condescend once more to trifle with the vulgar emotions of liberty. The dull love of gold has failed to flame at his touch he will wave his wand now over the hearts and hopes of men, to whome his language may, perhaps, be a little obseurc, but who must surely catch the majestic passion of his trained and infalliable tones. To subside from the glory of defending the slave-trade, to the work of rousing the nationalities, Mr. Mitchel, who is as classical, we believe, in his tastes as he is considerate in his politics, must feel to be a derogation, at least, if not a positive degradation. Nothing, wc imagine, but the hope of marching with a French army under the Duke of Magenta directly upon Killarney, could have reconciled him to such a change. Let England, then, beware! As Philip Agustus sent word, by such mesengers as the clumsy age allowed, to King John, of the release of Kichard Occur de Lion, with the words, "The Devil is unloosed take heed to thyself:"' jso, now, wc fairly advise Great Britain, "John r.Iitche! is afloat!" Raddat incolumem. "May the lljfvre ^steamer carry him safely beck to the Old World,", is the petitiofi, not precisely Horatian, perhaps, with tthicb wc shall dismiss him when he goes.

'VENT ADDRESS OP MAZZIJUI ON TllE PEACE OF. VILLAFRANCA. The delusion has vanished even more speedily than we had anticipated? The treason is accomplished. All our predictions are precisely fulfilled. The peace on the basis of the line of the Mincio, and the abandonment of Venetia, were announced'by us, when unheeded, we laid bare the designs secretly planned at Plombieres. One thing, however mast be acknowledged—the French usurper has surpassed our expectations. The bundle of propositions which Austria should be told to accept after the first few battles emanated from Louis Napoleon. The iniquitous compact was his suggestion. And that despot, caressed, saluted as liberator, blessed by a, people deluded, but kind, and willing to obliterate every rccord under the impulse of a heartfelt gratitude for a benefit solemnly promised:—that despot has thought fit to add insult to his abandonment and treason. He has contrived to unite for Italy the deceitful corruption of the politics of the seventeenth century with the brutal grasp and'with the insoIcncc of the conqueror he has united in his person the characters of Mcphistopliilcs and Bercnnus.

From one end of Italy to the other, one unanimous deep murfner of anger and menace must respond to the abominable news. Every syllable of the Mcssaggio ou"ht to be a mortal to those who deluded themselves into the hope of acquiring Italian emancipation from the man steeped in crimes and falsehood. "Peace," he says, is concluded between myself and the Emperor of Austria." The King, whom he urged to join in his undertaking from whom, by the inducement of a prospective empire,.he tore away his daughter for the support'of whose cause lie soliemnly declared that he took the field as an ally who was his friend and his companion in arms—that King is insulted by a contemptuous silence, and is excluded from the Imperial conference as if he were a mere Colonel of the army. Piedmont, which ought (since it suited the secret motives of Bonaparte to make war) to have been represented in the European Congress on a basis of perfect equality, to-day is not admitted into a Congress wherein the fate of Italy is to be decided: the ally and the enemy, both foreigners, take upon themselves to determine respecting Italy. Neither the fact that she was the ostensible motive for the war, nor the blood she has shed, nor the having on sonic occasions saved the French from a fatal surprise, nor the advantage of the good will of all Italy, can suffice to entitle her to give her advice and vote. Lombardy, on the soil of which the soldiers of Garibaldi first planted the standard of emancipation—Lombardy, which assuredly lias a right to express with perfect freedom its legitimate preference, is •riven by the Austrian usurper to the French usurper, as of a right, so as to banish even the appearance of free choice, and having been acceptcyl, is then ccded as a lief by the latter to the Picdmontcse King the people are treated as cattle, nl1fJ Cod the King as a vassal.

KENTUCKY ELECTION.

Eighty-four countics in Kentucky, officially Jieard from, gives MAGOFFIN a majority of 4,303. There are twenty-one counties yet to eomc in, which gave a Democratic majority last year of 0,264.

Thousands of Democrats, friends of Mr. KICK, \iis competitor before? the Convention, refused to vote for him.— lie is beaten in the district by 1,500 majority. Had it not been for the unfortunate quarrel the 1,500 majority would have been on the other side. The Louisvillo Journal has returned from the Fourth Congressional District which elect ANDKASON, Opposition, by two majority. It had previously been reported a tie.

Kossrnr.—.Mr. John M'Adani, of Glasgow, writes to the North British Daily Mail: "This morning I have received very late and trustwortyy intelligence from M. Kossuth. Particulars 1 am' not yet at liberty to communicate however, for the satisfaction of his numerous friends I may state, that after his betrayal lie remained only.,long enough to save as many of his revolted countrymen from harm as ho could, and to prevent any further present hopeless insurrection. He then retired into Switzerland, where he was joined by Madame Kossuth three days ago and it is uncertain whether lie may not be obliged to remain for some weeks before he returns to England.".
