I WRECK' OF • The Governor of the Cape of GooVistikoo-py directed the publication of the follown' t....114* the court appointed to inquire into tileWeinsk stances attending the wreck of the barque _ley' field on the night of the 15th June : Port-office, Cape Town, June 21., 1862. The Hon. the Colonial Secretary, eto. Sir,—We, the undersigned, have the honour to acquaint you, for the Governor's informatio.l• that, in accordance with instructions attending the loss of the barque Valleyfield, which wa s wrecked uvon the reef near the lighthouse at Green Point, on el Le night of the 15th inst. We examined the seco eel mate (the only surviving officer), the carpenter, an d cook. Their evidence is herewith enclosed. Upon consideration of this evidence, we are of opinion that the vessel must have sighted land on the 14th (Saturday) to the northward, and inside of Robben Island. when it is stated she stood off at 4 o'clock. At that time she was under double-reefed topsails, rnd continued so until 4 o'clock next morning'. when they wore ship and made sail, stevring south east. She then carried her' courses, single-reefed topsails and topgallantsefis. The wind during the day was from the N.N.E., and cer her port quarter. At noon land was again sighted, a nd the sun's alti tude taken for latitude by the captAin. The wit nesses do not, however, recollect what this was. The course was then altered to 5.5. E.,. the wind freshening towards evening, a n d th e vest ef going about eight knots. About 6 p.m. the I.sg.ht at Green Point was seen on the starboard bow, ,and estimated by the witness Hodges at about 15 mile's off. At six o'clock it appears that the first officer and Hodges went forward to see the anchors clear; a man was stationed to look out on the fore castle, and another was heaving the lead in the port chains. Whilst so engaged the man on the look-out called out " Breakers on the lee-bow," and. the crew received orders to back the mainyard, but before anything could be done the vessel struck, and immediately went to pieces. It would seem, from the fact of the vessel remaining urnier s uch a press of sail, from the time the light wa s first seen until she struck (which was only about balf an hour), that the commander must ha v e entertained the same opinion as the witness as to t he distathee of the light, and they were only preparing to shortee sail when she took the ground. Captain Wilson closely questioned the witnesses as to the Monille Light, and none of them seemed to have known of its existence, and none of them heard the captain give directions to keep a look-out for it. We are informed that the captain was a stranger to Table Bay, and it is not known whether he possessed the printed instructions for entering it. With the im perfect information before us, and the unfortunate absence of the captain and chief mate (who were lost), we cannot venture to offer more than a sur mise as to thecause of the wreck, and it is this : That, owing to the haziness of the weather, and the variableness of the strength of the wind, some mis calculation must have occurred Os to tbe distance the vessel was from the light. It was' observed by per sons on shore that the lights in the Green Point Li g hthouse on the night of the wreck were.extremely dull, and consequently app eared more distant than they really were. We av ail ourselves .of this opportunity to state, that had a light existed on Robben Island, and been visible, the officers in charge could not have remained in ignorance .of their real position. We are nevertheless of opinion that, with the addition of 'such a light, no captain should venture to enter Table Bay at night in such weather as we had on Sunday night. It seems im probable that the barque, seen from the signal station on the Saturday evening, was the ill-fated barque Valleyfield.—We have, &c., CHAS. PIERS, Acting Resident Magistrate. H. WILSON, Port Captain. Port-office, Cape Town , J ane 21, 1862. Proceedings taken in an inquiry into the circum stances attending the wreck of the barque Valley field, 400 tons burthen, of Liverpool, Captain WIZI. Burton, on the evening of the 15th of June, near the Green Point Lighthouse. John Hodges, sworn, states—l was the second officer of the late barque Valleyfia. We sighted land on Saturday last, and not being certain what land it was, we stood off till Sunday morning. At 4 o'clock we wore ship, and stood in and saw at 12 o'clock Robben Island. The master took the awn, and altered his course S.S.E. We imagined it to he Robben Island; it was low. We were running with the wind on the port quarter, arid with courses, single-reefed topsails and topgallant sails and jib. At half-past 5 I saw the light. I had previously seen a heavy bank, and which I thought was Table Moun tain, having been here once before. The master was on deck all the time. At the commencement of my watch at six o'clock I was desired by the master to see the anchors clear, and the rest of the crew were ready to run the mainsail up. The man on the look-out cried out " Breakers on the lee bow!" The master gave orders to put the helm down, and she immediately struck, and the sea took charge of the ship after the mainmast had gone. At the time when I first saw the light before six o'clock it ap peared to me that we were about 15 miles off. We were going about eight knots an hour. There 'was myself and na when ei g h the t others t ship her a man in the port mainchain, but I cannot say what soundings he gave. He was killed struck.

STAMPED ....sd. of La Cattolica, to put his name at the head of an association called La Nazione Arinata. He even was made to join notorious swindlers who professed to prepare a rescue for Venice. Of a childlike sim plicity and ingenuousness, guileless and confiding to a fault, he took his own truthfulness as a warrant for other people's sincerity. He believed e ver y assertion, gave iu to every device, dived into every illusion, and it was only when a real fri e nd , an au thoritative person, generally the King, made him aware of the pit that had been dug under his feet that he drew back, "alarmed and disginitai, mis trusting his own judgment, disavowing 1 - . is evil counsellors, and again and again repairing to his soh tude, satisfied that he could not maid matters, and should, at least, not mar them. Then came the affair of Marsala, the campaign of the Thousand, the libe ration of Sicily and Naples. The knot of Italian politics had got entangled beyond the power even of the shifty Cavour to untie it. It had to be cut, and Garibaldi's sword alone could do it. Cavour had no faith in the successes of Garibaldi's under taking ; he did not prevent, did not encourage it; he knew, he ignored it; he would either turn Garibaldi to good purpose, or be rid of him : he watched his progress, stepped in at his various stages ; he would have stopped Garibaldi at Messina ; he would have hurried, he would have delayed annexation ; he did not know what he wished. The adventurer's in stinct was better than the schemer's wisdom. Gari baldi and fate went their way, and Cavour was too long used to bow to events and to profit by them. The Two Sicilies were won. Garibaldi got cold thanks; he withdrew to his island home, bitter against Cavour, who had sold his native town, who jockeyed him, as he conceived, out of the reward of his achievements —the only reward he aspired to, the preferment of his friends and followers. Still Garibaldi remained in Caprera, and was quiet. Cavour came to an untimely end ; Ricasoli had his short tenure of office ; Garibaldi did not stir from Caprera. He harboured no resentment, he cherished no ambition, he had no wish for him self. He was humbled, not angered, by Cialdini's letter; he shook hands with his bitter censor,with drew from public life, and went back again to Caprera. Twice and three times recalled thence by false friends, he always went back by the advice of true friends. He had long disavowed Mazzini. He had withdrawn his countenance from the so-called "party of action." He went hand in hand with Victor Emmanuel. He would not believe that the hour of action had struck till the King himself gave the signal. Most fatally, he was made to believe that the signal had been given. King's agents, or men professing to be such, whispered to him that the King was tired of diplomacy and Ricasoli ; that he was bent on a move ; that a blow should be struck, first for Venice, then for Rome. Garibaldi trusted and acted. He landed at Genoa; Rattazzi super seded Ricasoli ; Garibaldi organised the Lombard youth into rifle clubs, he headed the Emancipation Society. He prepared the attack on Sarnico ; equipped an expedition to Montenegro. France protested; the Sarnico affair blew up; Garibaldi embarked for Caprera, but he was allowed to sail for Sicily ; was welcomed at Palermo by the Royal Princes at his landing; sat at table on the right hand of the heir of the throne, at the post of honour, received the homage of all the civil and military authorities in the island. He thought he was acting for the King, in the King's name, at the King's bidding. He thought the farce of Count Cavour and 1860 was being played over again. He consi dered all Ministerial disavowals and Royal procla mations to be only proofs of the consummate cun ning, of the profound dissimulation of the authors of the plot. The encounter at Aspromonte dispelled the illusion. Most assuredly Garibaldi is guilty of insanity. He was determined to march upon Rome; he de clared war against France, and in the meantime waged war against Italy. He was too sure he could shun civil strife ! he reckoned too much upon the enthusiasm of the people, on the eventual co operation of the national army. Had his calcula tions even proved true, had he dragged along with him the whole people of Naples and Sicily, Cialdini, La Marmora, and all their brigades and divisions, still he was no match for France. He could hardly engage France without at the same time drawing Austria also upon his arms. But, on the one hand, he had been taught by Mazzini that there was nothing that could not be achieved by the people. The French army might be half a million—a mil lion—but the Italians were twenty-five millions ! Then, Napoleon stood alone -in France ; " he had," as he was fond of repeating, " a straw tail," sure to be set on fire as soon as his back was turned. An attack on the Imperial garrison at Rome, Mazzini had told him, would be the signal for a republican revolution in France. The fall of Napoleon would bring about a covenant between the two Celto- Latin nations, which would make them more than equal to all the Powers of the world. Add to this that Garibaldi had hardly ever failed in any of his former enterprises, he felt sure that success could never forsake him ; he was conscious he had per formed miracles, and was sure of his power to achieve any prodigy. He had seen multitudes kneeling at his feet ; the world's incense had in toxicated him; he was, indeed, superior to idle vanity; he shunned plaudits and ovations so far as he was himself concerned ; but if he could turn all this power—all this prestige—to the benefit of his country. would it not have been meanness, would it not have been madness on his part to shrink from the task which popular enthusiasm designated him to accomplish, to shirk an enterprise to which the world's cheers urged him ? Such were Garibaldi's reasonings, such his motiv l and actions. His countrymen—the world may Ir e : pause before they sit in judgment against him, Si life is all of a piece—consistent from beg inPilB47, end. The men who applauded Garibaldi t to at error who worshipped him in 1860, have no con demn him in 1862. He acted without a n after thought or a selfish motive.

Bruce, Naval Comman der-in-Chief at Portsmouth, returned to that port last evening, accompanied by his Staff, from his annual official visit to the Channel Islands, on board the Fire Queen steam yacht, Muster Commander Paul. The paddlewheel steam yacht Osborne, Master Commander George Bower, accompanied by the Black Eagle and Vivid, having returned from Ant werp in attendance on her Majesty yesterday, were replenished with fuel at the dockyard in preparation for immediate special service. According to Ad miralty instructions despatched to Master Comman der Bower, the Osborne will haul alongside the Arsenal T pier this morning, and will embark his Royal Highness the Prince of Wales and suite to morrow by the morning's tide, which will be avail able at ten o'clock. Admiralty orders have been received at Chatham announcing that the school for naval engineers, at present held on board the Devonshire, 70, will be broken up and the school discontinued. The stu dents, however, are to have the option of attending the dockyard school in the evening, as at Ports mouth and Plymouth. A naval court-martial assembled on Wednesday on board the Formidable, 84, Capt. W. G. Luard, flagship of Vice-Admiral H. Hope Johnstone, Com mander-in-Chief at the Nore, for the trial of Private John Hopkins, Royal Marines, serving on board the Pembroke, 60, 200-horse power, Capt. Fisher, on a charge of having wilfully disobeyed the lawful commands of Lieut. R. Pitman, of the Pembroke, and of Corporal J. Wells, Royal Marines, his supe rior officers, in refusing to go on deck when ordered —and also for having, on board the Pembroke, on the 15th of August, assaulted and struck Corporal John Wells and Private Samuel Hancock, Royal Marines, they being at the time in the execution of their office. The Court found the prisoner guilty of the first charge only so far as related to his disobey ing the lawful commands of Corporal J. Wells, and considered the second charge hilly proved. He was sentenced to be kept in penal servitude for three years. _ _ A most unpleasant occurrence took place on Mon day, at Wool wich, shortly before her Majesty's em barkation, and which has involved the suspension of two of the superior officers of the dockyard, pend ing an official inquiry. On the Saturday previous to the arrival of the Queen an order was issued by the Commodore Superintendent, as stated in The Sun, notifying that from 12 o'clock on Monday morning no one would be admitted to the yard with the exceptions named until her Majesty's depar ture. The order was sent round to the officers re siding in the yard for their information, and was returned bearing their initials, signifying that they had perused and made themselves acquainted with its terms. Soon after 12 o'clock on Monday a gen tleman presented himself at the main gate, and de sired to pay a visit to Mr. 0. Barrington Piers, naval storekeeper of the yard, and on his being denied admittance the demand was taken by a constable to the storekeeper's house. Mr_ Piers then proceeded to the gate, and taking his friend's arm, was met by Mr. Mark, the superintending officer of the force, who remonstrated with him on his imprudence in opposing the Commodore's order and obstructing the police in the execution of their duty. Mr. Piers replied that he would himself be respon sible for the act and its consequences, and passed on with his friend to his house. The circumstances were reported to the Commissioners of Police, and forwarded by them to the Lords of the Admiralty. Yesterday both officers were suspended from duty, in order that the affair may be strictly investigated. A cargo of angle and plate iron, intended for the steam sloop Enterprise, under construction by Mr. Reed in Deptford dockyard, was yesterday landed at Woolwich, to be tested and approved for the ser vice. Commodore Nowry, . commanding the screw steam corvette Bougainville, and Captain Paque, commanding the Chasseur, now lying at Blackwell, in the service of his Imperial Majesty the Empe ror of the French, accompanied by the various offi cers of the vessels and 67 cadets of the French navy, were yesterday conducted over the depart ments of Woolwich Arsenal, by special orders from the War Department. The Imperial Chinese gunboat Amoy, Commander Arthur Salwey, sailed from Portsmouth yesterday morning for the Victoria Docks, London. Her Majesty's iron screw steamship Resistance, 18 guns, 3,710 tons, 600 horse power, Capt. Wm. S. Chambers, having been inspected by Vice-Ad miral W. J. Hope . Johnstone, was taken on trial at the measured mile off Maplin Sands yesterday. Capt, T. P. Thompson, commanding her Majesty's ship Cumberland and the steam reserve at Sheer ness, conducted the trial. Mr. Wm. Rumble, in spector of machinery afloat, and Mr. S. Townsend, foreman of engineers at Sheerness Dockyard, had the superintendence of the engines. Mr. W. B. Robinson, assistant master shipwright, and staff were also on board, and Mr. Holiday, who repre sented Messrs. John Penn and Sons, makers of the engine.

The works connected with the formation of the artesian well at Sheerness Dockyard have been again abruptly brought to a stand by an unfortunate acci dent.

GARIBALDL (From the Times' arrespondent.) TURIN, SEPT. 2. Garibaldi is on the ground, never again to rise. Whatever events the future may have in store for Italy, Garibaldi's game is played out. He is old, prematurely old, broken in health, worn by fits of excessive activity, still more wasted by long periods of involuntary repose. The gout tortures and para lyses his limbs, sorrow will soon knaw into his very soul. The lion is down ; there will be no lack of ignoble animals eager to administer the last kick. But Garibaldi belongs to history; justice must be done to a name which cannot pass away. It is not enough for his enemies to descant on his lack of prudence, on his overweening self-conceit, his igno rance, his obstinacy, they even impugn his veracity, his self-denial, his boundless generosity, his consis tency, his singleness of mind and purpose. Gari baldi, however, may well afford to abide the judg ment of public opinion. Had he never spoken or written, or suffered others to write and speak in his name, the sentence would be all the more favourable to him. As it is, if he is brought before the Senate at Turin, before a council of war, or be fore any civil or military court, silence beseems him as the most efficient defence. Like the great Roman of old he may ask his judges to follow him to the temple of the gods. "On such a day I gave Italy her Southern provinces and achieved her unity ; let us give thanks to the Almighty !" It would be mere cavil and chicane to inquire by whom the conquest of the Two Sicilies and their annexation were achieved. The initiative of the enterprise belongs to Garibaldi ; it could belong to him alone. Whether or not Garibaldi be prosecuted and tried for high treason, it is not from an official tribunal that he awaits condemnation or acquittal. The world will judge him by the light of his own conscience, by the precedents of his early training, his wild adventurous life, his teachers, his associates. Gari baldi was born a patriot, as every Italian was since 1814. He was a disciple of Young Italy, as all his countrymen were since the failure of the Carbonari of 1820. He was a countryman, almost a towns man, a friend, a fellow exile of Mazzini, at a time when Mazzini was all bright with hope and enthu siasm, free from the bigotry, the vapid idealism, the rancorous exclusivism, which estranged his steadiest friends from him. Garibaldi was a Mazzinian when all Italians between 20 and 25 years of age were Mazzinians. As a Mazzinian he left Italy ;he quitted Europe, he was away for years and years, seeing none of his countrymen, or only those who like him took extreme views of their country's ques tion, men to whom Europe offered no resting-place, who out-did Mazzini himself, whom Mazzini him self deemed unsafe and untrustworthy instruments. These men were Garibaldi's companions in the South American republics. Those Spanish communities in the New World are without contradiction the very worst political school on the face of the globe. The Italians were a superior race among those dege nerate creoles. They took a prominent station as fighting men; as statesmen swayed the councils of those unruly States, wielded their destinies. Gari baldi and his Italian Legion was for a long time the anchor of hope of Montevideo, the terror of Buenos Ayres and other uneasy neighbours. But South America was a bad school for the champion of an orderly and civilized country. Garibaldi, who brought with him not one sound idea of political right from Europe, borrowed his notions of freedom from those supremely, incorrigibly anarchic States. Bolivares and Francis were his beau ideals of patri otic heroism. His pattern Government was a mili tary dictatorship tempered by universal suffrage. Imbued with these notions, panting for action, and shrinking from reflection, he returned to Italy on the first outbreak of 1848. He came to fight under Charles Albert, but fell into the toils of Mazzini, of that Mazzini who, safe at Milan, was mining the ground under the Piedmontese as they grappled with Austria on the Mincio and the Adige. Charles Albert was prostrated; he fled to the Ticino, and Mazzini put forth his famous manifesto : " The war of the Kings is at an end ; that of the peoples begins." The author of that emphatic proclama tion went off to Lugano, in Switzerland ; but Garibaldi held his ground in Lombardy, then took to the water on Lake Maggiore, laid hold of the Sardinian steamers, put Arona and other towns on the Piedmontese side under contribution, and to those who pleaded the armistice then extant be tween the belligerents he answered, "La tregua ha fatta it Re; not non c' entriamo. (" The King has made the armistice; we will not enter into it.") With those steamers and that money he effected a landing at Luino ; he carried on the struggle for a few days at Varese ; then he had to cross the fron tier and seek safety in Switzerland. On the fol lowing year he was at Rome, in a Republic after his own heart, with all the powers concentrated in the hands of a Triumvirate. However Mazzini may have governed, there is no doubt but Garibaldi freight well. Ile humbled the ever-crowing French, defeated and all but captured King Bomba, and raised the character of the Italians, who henceforth were hailed in Europe as men who did fight. Loth to surrender, unwilling to stoop to compromise, Garibaldi led as many as had faith in himall across the Peninsula, baffling both French and Austrian pursuit —an epic retreat ending in a tragic rata. strophe—the death of his wife. He then vanished from the scene of the world; as usual, when no field for action was open, he sank into silence and obscurity --a sailor, a farmer, a quiet, unassuming, inoffensive, self-sufficient man. In 1859 he was again on Lake Maggiore, at Varese, at Como, on the Alps, the leader of raw youths against the best trained soldiers and the most enterprising generals of the A ustrian, He outstripped the march of the Franco-Sardinians, determined their movements, and paved the way for their victories. He then withdrew to Caprera, abjured republicanism, broke loose from Mazzini, and swore eternal brotherhood to Victor Emmanuel. It was no allegiance on his part as from subject to Sovereign ; it was the go! C° will and stanch friendship of a soldier to his woo rade. Yet, no doubt, the King of Ita l y blunt truer partisan, no eater supporter in his °Gwaribaldi way than " the hermit of Capre ra.

Mazzini all his endeavours san t ag itation • he strove to enlist the hero of Varese in his ranks. Garibaldi was made to plan an expedition across the frontier 71-1 E ABM'. A field inspection of the troops in garrison at Ports mouth took place on Southsea Common yesterday by Major-Gen. Lord W. Paulet, C. 8., commanding the South-West District and Portsmouth garrison. The force on the ground comprised the K battery of Royal Artillery, under Col. Anderson, C. 8., 6 offi cers, 79 gunners and drivers, 80 horses, 6 guns (12 pounder Armstrongs), and 6 waggons; Ist battalion 24th Foot, 26 officers and 529 men ; 53d Foot, 16 offi cers and 334 men; 55th Foot, 21 officers and 489 men ; 2d battalion 60th Rifles, 27 officers and 514 men; Royal Marine Light Infantry, 28 officers and 651 men—giving a grand total of 124 officers, 2,526 men, 80 horses, 6 guns, and 6 waggons. The troops first marched in single companies and in grand divisions of companies, the Artillery leading, and the united bands being massed opposite the saluting point. This part of the proceedings was closed by the IC battery going past at a smart trot. The appearance of this baltery, which has only re turned three days since from the camp at Aldershot, where it passed 3 months under canvass, excited much favourable comment by its general appear ance of efficiency, and the excellent condition of the horses. After marching past, the troops re-formed on their original alignment in contiguous co lumns, and the Artillery, advancing at a trot on the right flank, drew up and unlimbered on the rising ground in advance and to the right of the force, and opened fire from their 12-pounders. The force moving up in columns by an echellon move ment, was thrown into squares to resist cavalry and opened a heavy rifle fire from the right of faces. The enemy having been foiled in his first attempt, column was reformed, the 24th and 55th taking up a position in line facing the sea beach, with the Artillery on their right flank, the 53d, 60th, and Royal Marine Light Infantry being in reserve. The threatened attack of the enemy at this point, how ever, proved but a feint, his real attack being imme diately afterwards made on the left, to meet which the 60th were thrown out in skirmishing order, sup ported by the 53d and Royal Marine Light In fantry, the 24th and 55th forming the second line, or reserve. The 60th were gradually pushed for ward with the 53c1 and Royal Marine Light In fantry advancing in line, in support, with a demi-battery on the right flank, the remaining demi-battery being attached to the reserve. After advancing in this order for some distance the skir mishers were driven in and retiring through the line at the double, reformed in rear of the reserve, the advanced line opening a fierce file fire from right to left, supported by the Artillery on its right. The enemy were, however, in too great force, and the 53d and Marines were compelled to retire through the second line formed of the 24th and 56th, which had moved and formed for the purpose. A check was here again given to the enemy, but it was temporary, for the second line had to follow the example of the first, and retired, covered by the 60th Rifles. As, however, it would have been con trary to all true military tactics to leave the gallant 60th too long exposed, the 24th and 55th were no sooner in their required position than their cover ing force was called in, and their whole force thrown into squares to resist an onslaught of the enemy's cavalry, the artillery opening fire on either flank, while a well-sustained rifle fire was opened from the faces of the squares, concluding with a volley from each as the discomfited enemy drew off his forces, and, again baffled, abandoned the field. This concluded the proceedings, and the troops were dismissed to their respective barracks. The weather was exceedingly fine, and a large number of spectators were present. Major-Gen. Bloomfield, Inspector-General of the Royal Artillery, left town yesterday on a tour of inspection in Ireland. Major Teesdale, V.C., will accompany the gallant General during his inspection. The service companies of the 75th Regiment, re cently returned from India, being considerably below their proper strength, orders have been received at Chatham garrison for recruiting for that regiment to be recommenced. Up to the present time the recruiting has proceeded very satisfactorily, upwards of 70 recruits having arrived at the depot, Chatham, from the various recruiting districts during the month of August. Recruiting has likewise been opened for the Ist and 2d battalions of the 19th Re giment, but the number of recruits who have arrived at Chatham for that regiment is considerably below that for the 75th.
