We t 4 tbat this ,ay not be the laatbriMe altalpietaetitity Other allyllefant evil which it may be in his power to correct"— ondon Medical Gazette. " The editor has conferred a great boon on the sufferers from this distressing malady by translating this little book, and by laying bare the scandalous practices of unqualified adventurers, who profess to cure a disease of which they know nothing, with no other object than to fill their own purses. The difference between true Spermatorrhma and the various forms of disease which resemble it are accurately de scribed, and thus a safe guide is offered for the treatment of the malady.

ESKELL, Surgeon Dentist , 8, Lower - 1 Grosvenor-street, Sole Inventor and Patentee of an Invention which has for its object the Perfect and Painless Adaptation of ARTIFICIAL TEET IT, upon a novel prin ciple, whereby one set of teeth lasts a lifetime, and a second, or reserve set, is unnecessary. Changes take place in the mouth from absorption of gums or removal of stumps, teeth, ac., and ordinary sets would, under these circumstances, be comparatively useless, or only rendered available at some cost, but upon Mr. Eskell's patented process they are not im paired in the slightest degree. Residents abroad, or in the country, have it in their power to adjust their artificial teeth at all times without the aid of a dentist. Mr. Eskell does not grant licences to use his patent, which can only be ob tained at his residence, 8, Lower Grosvenor-street, where the medical profession, the nobility, gentry, and the public may see specimens, and obtain every information.

(From the Times' Special Correspondent.) MELAZZO, JULY 24. Another leaf has been added to Garibaldi's laurel crown, neither the least weighty or the least bril liant which it contains. The Battle of Melazzo is one of those rare fights comprising all the grandeur of a great victory of modern times with all the exciting incidents of a heroic combat of antiquity. I have tried to explain to you in my letters the situation of things before - Melazzo. Medici with his column, consisting of about 2,500 men, had ad vanced along the northern shores of Sicily to Bar cellona, where the Governor and committee of the province of Messina had established their residence and were organising the military forces of the pro vince ; but with the capital of the province strongly occupied by the enemy, and with the fortress of Melazzo not more than seven miles distant, and forming a strong nucleus of reaction, the task was not easy. The great majority of men are always more influenced by what is near home than by any thing which may occur a little further off. Thus, in spite of the successes gained in the rest of the island, the strength of the Neapolitans in the eastern corner formed a strong argument in the eyes of the great mass against going too far in this direction, and compromising themselves before all danger was over. A number of employes, too, driven away from their posts in the interior, had found refuge within the walls of Melazzo and Messina, and exerted all tlsair influence to con vince people of the risk which they were incur ring in coming* forward and taking a prominent part, while not a few of their colleagues, whom the magnanimity of the Dictatorial Government had left in their places and homes, contributed to spread timidity and hesitation. Yet in spite of these cir cumstances, which were calculated to damp enthu siasm and benumb energy, the call of the Govern ment for volunteers was not without effect, and several hundreds, most of them belonging to the better classes, responded to the appeal. They were organised into a body, and provided as far as was possible with arms and uniforms. This was almost more difficult than getting the men, for all had to be brought across the mountains from Catania, the sea in the neighbourhood being still insecure. The handful of men thus collected was augmented by a battalion of a few hundreds whom Col. Fabrizi had collected on his passage from Noto to Catania, .and from this latter place to Barcellona. Both together probably did not amount to more than 7,800 men. Medici, named military commandant of the pro vince, took the whole direction of affairs from the moment of his arrival on the 12th inst. He led the column, and went out himself to reconnoitre the ground where he would take up his position against Melazzo. The Neapolitans, scarcely ap prised of his arrival, sent a column under the com mand of Col. Bosco against this force advancing or Melazzo, The garrison of this latter place con sisted of the Ist Regiment of the Line and of a com pany of artillery, which, in spite of the armament of the citadel and the walls of enclosure of the town, were thought insufficient to make head against Medici's force. The column started from Messina on the 14th inst., and consisted of four battalions of riflemen, each above 1,000 strong, a squadron of Chasseurs-a-Cheval, and a battery of field artillery. The road which leads from Messina to Melazzo ascends the mountains in the rear of Messina immediately after leaving the town, and having reached the summit of them at La Scala, descends towards the opposite or northern shore of the island. Just before reaching this it winds round the last spur of the mountain, which ends rather precipitously at the town of Gesso. This latter point therefore commands the road towards Messina, and it was important to keep it in case of a reverse. The 4th battalion of riflemen was left behind for this purpose, with the order to guard the main road with four companies, and to send the remaining four to observe the mountain paths by which the position of Gesso could be turned. The rest of the column advanced on the same day to Spadafora-Samniartino, and reached Melazzo the next day, the 15th. Medici had been apprized of the intention of the Neapolitans to send a column against him several days before the column actually started; this know- ledge of the plans and movements of the enemy is one of the great advantages which a national army has. What the Neapolitans can only obtain by bri bery, and frequently not by this means, we can get almost without an effort on our side. Nay, the de sire to inform us of anything which passes in the enemy's camp is so great that the difficulty lies in dis tinguishing what is important and what is not, No paid spy ever observed all the slightest indications so closely as this Argus-eyed popular police. In this special instance the very telegraph, that powerful engine of warfare, turned against the Neapolitans. 'rhe electric wire along the coast had been destroyed by the people, in whose eyes that black wire passes for one of tie most dangerous weapons of the Neapolitans, and only the aerial telegraph remained, the movements of which cou ld be seen and inter preted. Medici, apprised of the approach of Bosco's column, almost double the strength of his own, had time to choose his position. He fixed it at Meri, about three miles in front of Barcellona, on the taking high road to Messina, the river bed of the torrent of Santa Lucia as the base of his line. The mountain slopes in this part of Sicily are so steep, and the torrents so rapid and full of pebbles, that they fill up the whole space intervening between the mountain spurs. The torrent of Santa Lucia exhibits this character better than any other of the torrents which I have s of 200 to 300 yar d s een. It forms an even space in width, which you might almost think prepa r ed for a garden walk. It forms in summer time the only road to several of the mountain passes. In the lower part of it, near Merl, where the hills fall off, both sides of the tor rent are guard e d b y walls several feet in breadth and from five to six road feet high, leaving only a pas sage for the highwhich traverses Meri. If you were in the middle you would almost imagine yourself to be in a regularly constructed fortifi cation. Medici having taken up his head-quarters in the village, had the houses close to the river provided the with loop-holes, andbreak in the wall which admits the road regularly fortified with gabions and sandbags. The wall itself riflemen, and this line was likewise prepared for r c s o t nsidered as the really defen sive position. The fi wooded, d the spur to the right, which is s teep and well ed, was occupied by a battalion, while furth er steep slopes of Santa Lucia flanked the extreme right of the position. On the left the wall by whicheriver is enclosed continues for about half-a-mile, protecting ecting the luxuriant gar dens which extend Meri towards the sea. Where the wall ends an broad shelving beach begins, se veral hundred yards width. The position was as good as any that could be desired, its only draw back being the length of it, which is scarcely short could of three miles. Thisnot be helped, for if Santa Lucia was not occupied there was a danger of the right being turned. The 'e river bed in front of il the position was occupied by one battalion, and the wall on the other side fortified like that one on the other side towards Meri. Immediately after crossing the river theroadd ni fvides in two, the ene to the left leading straight to Melazzo, while the other to the right, form ln road, goes through Corioli g part of the main to Archi, at which point the road coming from main road. On these two roads, which run among Melazzo strikes the a succession of gardens, mostly a nd thickly studded' with enclosed by walls, fig trees, were the outposts, the olives, vines, and extreme points being about a mile from the river at Corioli and San Pietro. The 16th passed without any encounter. Bosco had w ithdrawn into Melazzo, and Medici was still busy with his preparations. On the morning of the 17th Medici sent out a reconnaissance from Corioli to observe the movements of the enemy. This recon naissance met two companies of the enemy's rifle men, which had been sent convoy ostrengthen two other co mpanies in charge of a of flour from the a neighbouring mills. After few shots had been ex changed the enemy's riflemen thought it wise to abandon their project, and Withdrew hastily to wards Melazzo. In the afternoon, about three o'clock, Medici re ceived notice of the advanceof h acolumn in the direc tion of Corioli , and soon after avant garde was attac ked at Corioli. Withdrawing l within the vil lage, the Neapolitans made an attempt to penetrate, forward and actually succeeded in pushing towards th e centre of the vi lla g e. A charge with the bayonet dislodged them, and from that moment the combat on that side degenerated into a line of desultory firing, the Neapolitans not renewing their attempt, to orders, according and ours keeping, likewise on the defensive. This order was due to the know ledge that the attack towards Corioli was a mere feint, the chief e ffort bein g towards our right to get possession of Santa Lucia, and thus turn the position. This ef f ort was to be made by a column of three battalions, with half a battery, under the command of Bosco himse lf . T he colunit; had moved up the torrent of San Nocito, which runs down parallel to that of Santa Lucia, and skirts the oppo- EVENING, AUGUST 4, 1860. site side of the mountain spur on which the village bearing the same name lies. As the enemy showed only a part of the forces he was known to possess, it was necessary to be prudent, and not to withdraw forces from one side to strengthen the other. The result was that one battalion of 500 men had to re sist the attack on that side, which was done suc cessfully, without the necessity of sending rein forcements. As in all former fights, it was the bayonet which again secured the victory. Trusting to their numerical superiority, the Neapolitans tried time after time to take the slopes, and, in spite of the well-directed fire from the Enfield rifles with which Medici's battalions are armed, they advanced till they Were close enough for another rush with the bayonet, and lost all the advantage they had obtained. The fight lasted thus till the evening closed in, the loss in men being trifling on our side, and probably not much greater on the part of the enemy. But if the Neapolitans did not lose much in men, they lost so much the more in self-confi dence by this check. They had come out with the intention of riding over Medici's column ; Bosco had boasted that he would drive Medici's troops into the sea, and destroy Barcellona, the head-quar ters of the revolution in the province of Messina. He could not even shake one battalion, and the re lative positions changed ; instead of thinking to make good his boast, he thought henceforth only of keeping his own position. The telegraph told the tale, and Medici knew tie next day that Bosco had sent a message to Messina asking for speedy help, as otherwise his retreat would be compromised. General Clary, the commander of Messina, answered that he could not send assistance, being himself threatened by the advance of another column from Catania. All he could do was to send another bat talion of riflemen to Gesso, and let the one stationed there go and join Bosco's ' forces. This was done the next day. On our side, likewise, no time was lost in getting up reinforcements. Already on the 18th General Cosenz arrived with his advanced guard, consisting of a battalion of seasoned troops from Upper Italy. They went on board the two small steamers taken from the Neapolitans as far as Patti, and thence by land. Garibaldi, apprised by telegraph of the state of things, took one of those sudden resolutions, dictated by inspiration, which show better than anything else his genius as a military commander. He saw that there was a chance of striking a great blow, and a fews hours were sufficient to conceive, mature, and carry out his plans. Intrusting General Sirtori, the chief of his Staff, with full powers as pro-Dic tator, he united whatever he could collect in men, put them on board the City of Aberdeen, a British steamer which had been freighted, embarked with his Staff, and, with a reinforcement of about 1,200 men was the next morning, the 19th, at Patti, where he disembarked and marched on to Meri. This timely assistance, but above all the presence of Garibaldi himself, gave to the operations a new impulse, and an entirely different character. There probably never was a General with so bold an ini tiative' as Garibaldi ' • this constitutes his chief strength, and makes him so formidable an adver sary. His resolutions are almost instantaneous, and having once taken a resolution he concentrates his whole energy in carrying it out. You gee the man of one idea all through. Above all, this time it was as if freedom from the annoyances of the intriguing politicians of Palermo had brought out this won derful gift with new brilliancy. Not a moment was lost in preparing everything for a general attack the next day: None but the iron frame of Garibaldi could bear the exertion which this required. Want ing little sleep and less food, his unceasing activity enables him to see and listen to every one, to do everything, and impress his own activity on all those around him. Long before you come to the coast of Melazzo you see an isolated rock, resembling somewhat that of Gibraltar, before you. Oa it stands the citadel of Melazzo, occupying an area of half a square mile, and falling off boldly on all sides. At the foot of it, towards the land side, lies the town, occupying about the same area, and also enclosed by substan tial walls ; both are connected by a narrow strip of land with the mainland on the sea side of the castle ; the low land continues for several miles, falling off towards the point which is crowned by the light house. The whole peninsula is evidently formed by the depcsits of the two little streams of Santa Lucia and Nocito, which run into the sea on both sides of it. The bend of the neck of land forms one of the most commodious natural harbours in Sicily. This and military considerations have made Melazzo a kind of centre for the roads leading from the west and the interior. There is, first, one which skirts the sea to the left of Meri ; next to it comes the direct road from Meri to Melazzo, forming an angle of 25 degrees with it, and uniting at the en trance of the town of Melazzo. Then comes the main road to Messina, running parallel to the road on the sea-shore towards Arabi; lastly, there is the branch road which starts from the gates of Mel lazzo to join this latter road in the vicinity of Archi. The space enclosed by these roads forms three sides of a parallelogram, the river Santa Lucia forming the fourth ; the direct road from Meri to Melazzo, running due north, intersects this parallelogram, the length of which is about four, and the width two and a half miles. These main roads are con nected by several branch roads, all having a ten dency towards Melazzo. This ground was the theatre of the battle of Melazzo. The concentration of all these roads to wards Melazzo gave to the Neapolitans the advan tages of a concentric position, of which they were not slow in availing themselves. This advantage was considerably increased by the nature of the ground, which is covered with a most luxuriant vegetation, forming as it were one succession of gardens, thickly studded with olive and other fruit trees, planted with vines, and, above all, a kind of cane used for training the vines. These gardens, especially the part which contains the canes, form a thick cover, in which it is well nigh impossible to make a combined movement, or see anything of the movements of the enemy. In this thick cover, about a mile from the town of Melazzo, the Nea politans had extended their line, taking all the roads within their line, and choosing above all, the points of intersection of the main roai from Meri with the road to Messina. They divided their guns on these points, loopholed the garden walls, and placed their Riflemen in the gardens, where they were most effectually concealed. The dispositions taken on our side were—the left under the command of Colonel Malanchini, consist ing of two battalions of Tuscans and a battalion of Palermitan recruits, was to advance on the road close to the seashore and go right at the town of Melazzo. The centre, under the orders of Medici, and composed of his first regiment of four bat talions, all old troops, some from Lombardy, was to advance from the direct road from Meri ; one bat talion of the 2d Regiment was to take the main road to Messina, starting from Corioli, and was to be joined by the battalion from St. Lucia. The centre and right were to unite by the cross road nearest to Melazzo, and then work up their way united towards Melazzo. A body of Sicilians, under Colonel Fa brizi, was to take position on the extreme right at Arelis, so as to oppose any attempt made from Gesso to assist the force at Melazzo. A second line and reserve, the troops arrived with Garibaldi, were placed together with the troops which had cone up with Cosenz. At dawn the columns started, and by 6 a.m. the first firing was heard on the left. The open beach gave the advantage to the Neapolitans of employing their artillery on this point more successfully than at any other, and while the column to the left, with out artillery, tried to sustain this unequal struggle, the centre found itself likewise in face of the enemy. Leaving the narrow road, enclosed on both sides with garden walls, they penetrated into the gardens on both sides to attack the enemy, whose advanced posts had taken position in some detached houses not far from the point where the first cross-road joins the main road of Meri at the hamlet of Le Grazie. The troops belonging to the second expedition, eager to regain the lost time and rival the victors of Calata Fimi and conquerors of Palermo, soon drove the enemy's outposts from the detached houses ; but it required considerable exertion to make him leave the cover behind. Invisible to the eye, he fired with deadly aim at our advancing troops, prostrating numbers of them without suffering himself. Fre quently the cover was so thick that not even the puffs of smoke were visible ; it was the most trying thing to the soldier to fight against this formidable phantom adversary, who seemed inaccessible. Any general disposition became impossible, the men of one company often scarcely seeing each other, much less those of another. Tho road, which at first sight seemed to be the most difficult point, proved easier than the rest, for there, at any rate, one could see the adversary and his movements. The only tac tics possible under these circumstances were to push on the road, and thus take in flank and rear some of the more difficult covers of canes; and, on the other hand, to make a bold push through the cover, unmindful of losses, to gain the rear of the enemy's position on the road. The heavy losses which such an unequal fight entailed on the attacking forces, as well as the necessity to en counter some flanking movmpt i which the enemy 4 1 '.:: STAMPED, sr. could easily execute without being seen, reduced very early the number of the reserve. Although the whole movement was under the orders more especially of Medici, Garibaldi was, of course, the soul of the fight, finding himself invari ably at the point most exposed, and exposing him self, as is his wont to do. He was with the centre, which was making its way slowly over and through all the obstacles, when the news arrived that the _ _ left, unable to resist the superior forces of the enemy, was giving way, and thus exposing the whole line to be turned on that side. Taking the only reserve remaining, a battalion composed of North Italians and Palermitans, under the com mand of Lieutenant-Colonel Dunne and several other Inglish officers, he went to the left to stem the advance of the Neapolitans. His presence and the exertions of the officers of the battalion suc ceeded in steadying these young troops, who not only resisted further attacks, but pushed forward towards the guns with which e enemy was sweep ing the road. One advance bolder than the rest brought them to our guns; an English sai' lately enlisted at Patti, was the first acr the wall behind which one of the guns was posted, and the next, moment the gun was carried off in. triumph. Just at the moment when it was dis appearing behind the curve in the road the cry arose of " Cavalry-weavalry !" and excited con fusion. Vain were the attempts of Garibaldi and of the officers to overcome this bugbear of young troops ; they pressed against the garden wall on one side, and, jumping a ditch on the other, they opened the road to about a dozen bold horsemen of the Chasseurs a Cheval, who, with their captain at their head, rushed through this break in our line to recapture the gun. Garibaldi had only time to step aside, when the horsemen passed sabring right and left. But they did not go far, for after the first panic the infantry reco vered and soon emptied the greater part of their saddles. The captain, a sergeant, and a private tried to make their _escape, and would have suc ceeded but for Garibald's personal bravery. He went into the middle of the road, and having left his revolvers in the holsters when he dismounted, he drew his, sword and placed himself in position to stop the captain. The only person with him at the time was Captain Missciri, of the Guides, who was likewise on foot, but armed with a revolver. His first shot wounding the horse of the Neapolitan captain, brought it on its haunches, Garibaldi seized hold of the bridle intending to secure the captain as his prisoner. But the Captain answered to the demand to surrender by a blow with his sword at Garibaldi, who parried and retaliated, cutting the Neapolitan captain with one stroke down the face and neck, and prostrating him dead at his feet. While Garibaldi was thus engaged in this single-handed combat, Captain Missori shot down the sergeant who came to assist his officer. This one despatched he seized hold of the private whose horse had been shot, and when he resisted shot him also with another barrel from his revolver. This brilliant incident served not a little to ani mate the troops on the left, and they soon came up in a line with the centre. But the hardest part of the fight was still in store. In spite. of the heat of the day, and without having tasted food that morning, the Cacciatori advanced step by step and drove the enemy back towards the neck of the peninsula, where at the intersection of the road from right and left he had chosen his real point of resistance. The ground had been carefully prepared beforehand, the positions for the guns chosen, the garden walls loopholed, and a barricade constructed to defend the approach. This point became the scene of a hard hand-to-hand fight which lasted for several hours, costing many a brave fellow, among them Major Migliavaccad. General Cosenz was wounded in the neck by a grape shot, and Medici had his horse killed under him. In order to dislodge the enemy, the company of Genoese Riflemen was sent into the thicket on the left to turn the enemy's position on that side. The canes were so close that it was only with difficulty that man by man could pass, while all those around seemed to swarm with Riflemen. Tnere, wild with rage, the Genoese sought to get a sight of the enemy who was around them, and man after man fell among the small band without being able once to use his formidable weapon. A general cry arose to charge ; the captain tried to stop it, but in vain. By an effort the company broke through the canes, and found itself before a loopholed wall, where it was received by a general volley. Nothing daunted, they hastened along the wall to find a gap vvhieh was at some distance. At last there seemcd a chance to get at the enemy, but, as usual, he did not wait forthe bayonet, and a few well aimed shots were the only satisfaction which the Genoese had besides that of contributing to make the enemy evacuate the position on the cross roads. Out of the company of 85, 32 remained. Besides this movement on the left, it was the com ing up of the right wing which decided the fate of the day. This position once lost, the advance, al though still opposed, was comparatively easy. Pass- • ing the bridge which leads to the neck of the peninsula, there is an open space of a few hundred yards, with the sea to the right and some gardens to the left. Beyond the open space is a row of houses, which continues to the very gates of the town. Here the Neapolitans made a last effort to hold out ; occupying the houses, concealing them selves behind some large boats drawn up on tlip beach, and helped by their field artillery as well as by that from the castle, they checked our advance for a time. A column sent through the garden to the left, and the arrival of the steam-frigate Tuckori, formerly the Veloce, towards the west shore, soon changed their resolution. Garibaldi, who saw her approaching, hurried off to the beach, threw him self into a boat, and 4 went on board, where his pre sence animated all. A few well-aimed long shots from the frigate, the first shots of the advancing column from the left, together with a bayonet at tack in front, broke this last resistance, and in duced them to seek rEfuge in the castle, leaving two guns behind, which, with the three already taken, made five in all. Without even attempting to defend the town they hurried through towards the castle, where they could not very well be followed. It was evening when this took place, the fight having lasted more than 14 hours in the heat of the day. The town was found almost deserted, all the houses shut, and the in habitants partly gone before, or retired with the troops to the castle. The population of Melazzo is one of the worst in national spirit and patriotism; living entirely on the garrison and on the employes, their interests are naturally engaged on that side, and, even now, when all danger is passed, very few have returned ; not a shop is open, and almost everything has to be brought from Barcellona and other places in the neighbourhood. From the kind of fighting you may judge of our losses. The whole force, which was about 5,000 men, has 750 dead and wounded ; it is impossible to estimate the loss of the Neapolitans, but it is not likely that they had more than one-third of our own. Fortunately, slight wounds, principally in the extremities, prevail. The number of dead is disproportionately small, which is rather surprising considering the calibre of the Neapolitan rifle, which is larger than any other I have seen. Only those who couldn't be transported were put into the hospi tals of Melazzo, all the rest were taken to Barcelona and the villages in the neighbourhood. All the churches have been converted into hositals ; besides this all the inns have been taken up and several of the large private houses. As for the care of the doctors of the local hospital, they do their best to assist, but I must say the population is here far below the mark. I have still in remembrance the devotion which the town of Brescia showed a little more than a year ago, when the inhabitants vied with each other to house the 18,000 wounded of the battle of Solferino, when only 6,000 beds could be provided by the exertions of the army ; not a house was without some wounded men or officers; the people slept on the ground to give their mat tresses and beds to those who were suffering for them. Here there is no initiative ; no one thinks of doing anything spontaneously. Not one came to offer his house, and the wounded have to lie on straw, with scarcely any cover, On. the 21st an incident occurred which rather marred for a moment the general impression of joy caused by the brilliant victory of the day before. The steam frigate Tuckori was ordered to run close in shore, when her guns were to be taken out and used to reduce the citadel. Garibaldi himself took the soundings, and singled out the most convenient place where she could be quite protected from the guns of the citadel. This was so much the more advisable as her machinery had become deranged, . and would not work well. She came but in stead of taking up the position assigned to her wept out again, in spite of the positive orders which she had received. In vain were signals made and boats sent off, they brought only th e answer that general the ship could not return. At last, seeing no other means, Garibaldi sent off Colonel Cenci, one of his aide-de-camps, with the order to arrest the captain and bring in the vessel, which was done. Th e cap t a i n ' s excuse was that, his machinery being ou t of order, he did not think it advisable to remain where he would be exposed to being shot at. This paltry excuse, which proved the very reverse of anger to such a pifclithat- -his_ first have the captain shot, but he was prevailed **in n to send him before a court-martial. The process is not over, and he remains under arrest, as well as the engineer. The same day all the dispositions were taken to hasten the approach of all the columns to wards Messina. The Sicilian volunteers of Messina, Catania, and Note, under the orders of Colonels Fabrizi and Inderucco, received orders to advance towards Gesso, on the kill road, while the Ist and 2d Brigades of the 15th Division received orders to hasten on the road from Catania to Messina. The advanced .ward of the 2d Brigade had already occupied faormina, considered as the Therrnopyho of Messina, on the eastern shore. The Ist Brigade was on its way from Noto towards Catania. The garrison, enclosed in the citadel of Melazzo, was summoned to withdraw, leaving behind guns, horses, and the whole war materiel. This was re fused, and in consequence the means had to be thought of to reduce it. The guns of the Maori were to be taken out, and at the same time a tele gram sent to Palermo to bring down fieia rc.ia foreements and some of the large guns which were there. On the 22d the steamer Aberdeen sailed in boldly, in spite of a shower of ill aimed shot, which flew r about her, bnt none of which injured her. She brought several of the native battalions and some guns, disembarked her cargo, and left again the next day. While thus, on one hand, everything was pre paring in case that •the garrison would not be .o terms, it was- seen from the telegrams exchanged between Messina and Melazzo that the garrison found itself every moment less capable of holding out. The return message from Messina. was that the commander had sent to Naples to ob tain permission for -the garrison of Melazzo to capitulate. _ _ This morning, finally, four Neapolitan frigates. hive in sight, and Col. Anzauo, of the DO: Major, came on shore with full powers to .treat.... Trustin. to the presence of the four frigates, lie at first assumed a rather higher tone, hoping to get for the garrison the same favourable terms as those ac corded to that of Palermo, but he soon found out with whom he had to do. Garibaldi had made his terms, and he told the negotiator the whole fleet of Naples would not make him swerve. What he had offered to the garrison before the arrival of the naval squadron he would give to it now—neither more nor less ; so that Colonel Anzano, seeing that. he was determined, gave in, and accepted the con, ditions laid down by Garibaldi. JULY 26. .Yesterday the evacuation of the citadel of Me lazzo began, and in the evening it was completed. One among the first embarked was Colonel Bosco, who, although escorted by several officers, had to pass through a file fire of hisses, which seems to be the only rewards he gets for his pains. He boasted of having taken Medici's bay horse, a rather ferent animal, and now he was obliged to leave "b e .. hind his own gray, a far better horse. The we: an d e d were brought down through the town to th.e beach, where they were embarked. This gave an, opportu nity to all those who wished to desert. Above all, in the artillery there are a, good many who took advantage of this temp'ing opportunity. Among the rest a sergeant's guard came over with arms and baggage. As usual, the Neapolitans would not leave without behaving as it is their wont. They spiked 18 out of the guns they had to leave behind, besides which they laid a train to blow up the powder magazine; the thing was cunningly concealed under a lot of hay and straw out of which the fusees peeped. All around loose powder was strewn so as to facilitate the process of explosion. It was discovered by chance, one of the soldiers having remarked the loose powder, which led to further researches. There were as usual excuses, accident and careless ness gating all the credit, while the pretence was that only those guns had been spiked which could bear on the shipping, and which might be used to molest the departure of the frigates with troops. The second excuse was just as untrue as the first, for eight of the spiked guns pointed to wards the land side. Fifty guns, 139 horses, 100,000 rounds of ammu nition are the material fruits of the victory of Melazzo ; but they represent only a small portion of the real results of this victory, which will' pro bably open the gates of Messina. It is what Cala- ,afim - i Was for Palermo. It establishes once more the superiority of the Cacciatori against all odds Of position and cannon. If the disproportion in num bers was not as great as at Calatafimi, the advan tage of the Neapolitans in point of position and. artillery was perhaps greater before Melazzo than at Calatafimi, They had sent there the flower of the Neapolitan army in Sicily, all volunteers who had been called upon to form the expedition. They were commanded by the man who enjoys, deservedly or undeservedly, the highest reputation among Neapolitan leaders. And all this was overthrown by one day's fight. What chance was there of holding out under any circumstances ? Indeed, already yesterday the telegraph aim , g the Messina shore reported a great movement of steamers between Messina and Reggio, and the embarcation of all the cavalry and part of t'ne ar tillery. It is high time, for Garibaldi ira not the man to lose time, and he may not be always so generously disposed as to let off the Neapolitans for the third time. The forts at Alessina cannot contain more than 5,000 or 6,000 men, and there are 15,000, if not more, there,"without counting those who evacuated M elazzo. Already yesterday the advanced guard of Medici's corps advanced as far as Spadafora ; this morning the advanced guard was pushed on as far as Gesso, and Medici himself left to replace his vanguard at Spadafora. To-morrow the attempt will be made to crown the heights above Messina. Should the Neapolitans withdraw'and evacuate the town, we are to occupy the town, otherwise the Neapolitans will be attacked and driven away by the combined. efforts of the column arriving from the west and the one advancing on the eastern seashore. But this is not likely to be wanted. MESSINA, JULY 29. Here I am returned to where I started from just two months ago. What eventful two months, not only for Sicily, but for the whole of Italy ! When I went off the eyes of the world were eagerly watching the first steps of the bold few who came to rescue Sicily from Naples and from herself, and now the work begun then is almost finished.. As would be foreseen, the battle of Melazzo opened the gates of Messina. I wrote to you in my last that on the morning of the 27th Medici was to crown the heights overlooking Messini. Two days before—that is on the day on which the evacuation of Melazzo took place—the Neapolitan post at Gesso was withdrawn, and the Sicilian volunteers under Fabrizi went immediately to occupy that important position. The Neapolitans, however, still held until the next day the top of the height where the road passes the crest of the moun tain. This made it uncertain whether they would evacuate the town or try to hold'the heights. The question was decided the next day, or rather the following night, and when next morning Medici's vanguard showed on three points, not only the positions but the town likewise, was found abandoned by the troops, who had withdrawn to the forts. Before withdrawing, the Bank funds were consigned to the Committee of the place, and the evacuation took place in the most regular way. The evacuation on one side, and the entry of the victors on the other side, was the signal of a meta morphosis in the town of Messina which can only be designated by the name of resurrection. In the afternoon, about half-past two, Garibaldi, apprised of the entry of Medici, arrived in person. I can find no words to describe the ovations which are given to Garibaldi. Imagine a long-expected Messiah greeted by the people he has delivered, the heart of the whole people poured out before the man of the people, who feels and lives with the life of the masses.
