LONDON, THURSDAY, OCT. 11, 1860. Most great battles furnish numerous incidents of much interest, to garnish, as it were, the great result ; and we are sure to hear of many in connec tion with the battle of the Volturno. We have noticed the part taken by the gunners and sailors of the Renown, " absent on leave"—doubtless with the leave of officers as willing as the men themselves to share in the fight for liberty against tyranny. English sailors, too, do not forget their countrymen PARKE and WATT when they look at those horrid Neapolitan prisons, and at every discharge of the guns they helped to work, it was—" Here goes a retaliating shot for PARKE and WATT ;" or, "Here's another for GARIBALDI and liberty ;" or another, with three cheers, for—" Down with the BOURBONS and tyranny." It will be noticed to-day, too, in the correspondence, that English officers were in valuable. The Sicilians whom they led appear to have depended almost entirely on them ; this, of course, is to be partly accounted for by their being but raw levies of volunteers, who would natu rally form their judgment of what they could do, by the leading of able officers. Part of a small force opposed to three times their number, was, we observed, neutralized, because their English Colonel DUNN was wounded early in the day. We read also that one part of his men, under the command of" brave Colonel WYNDHAM, stood to their work," while the remainder, under Sicilian officers, got into confusion. We may rest assured that, in future years, if France be the neces sary ally of Italy, England will always be the More beloved ally of all her best men. It will long live in their memory, that subscriptions, hos pital necessaries, volunteers, able officers, men-of- 37 _ at ' s . men, all attested the profound interest of this country in the noble struggle of 1860 ; and while Italy is a free kingdom, England will never want a cordial friend in the Mediterranean. Admiral MUNDY hi mself, though fettered, perhaps, too much by instructions from his Government, shows in every possibly way his hearty sympathy with GARIBALDI and the Italian cause. It is, however, pleasing to notice, that all Frenchmen are not LAMoßi ci ERES—mercenaries for Popery and Tyranny. A PAUL DEFLOTTE has already died a volunteer martyr to the cause of Italian liberty. He fell, it may be remembered, amongst the first who set foot on the shores of Calabria. But his spirit survives, and fought nobly at the Battle of the Volturno. His French com pany recals an English memory of Waterloo, for they defended a farm-house during the whole day with great bravery against all attacks; b ut happily their ammunition did not fail, and they live to enjoy the honours due to their valour, and to rejoice in its contribution to the common cause. Some curious disclosures were made by the pri soners. it seems all kinds of gross falsehoods were resorted to to keep the men together, and to make them believe fighting to be better than desertion. They were told that no quarter was given —the sad consequerice of which was that they killed many of the wounded under grossly false im pressions. It was " disgusting," the writer of the letter s ays, to see not only men, but officers, fall ing on their knees and piteously begging for life wh ten they were taken. prisoners. To the last, FRANCIS 11. and his agents could attempt to maintain their cause only by prompti ng th e i r men to violate the few hu manities of civilised 'warf are. Let soldiers murder the wounded, anal provoke to reprisals, if FRANCM IL. Naples I Th at was rot , can but get b; ick by it to , :•-;r the only, though the most cruel, imposition on their ignorance, They were actually made to believe that the Austrians—the men who are trembling within the Quadrilateral itself at the name of GARI BALDI, and begging Prussia and all the world to guarantee Venetia to them—that the Aus trians were at Naples, and were taking the Gari baldians in their rear To their unbounded surprise, also, they learned that LAMORICIERE and his troops were all scattered, killed, or taken prisoners ; that the General who they had thought was marching to their help, was marching off home himself, a prisoner on his parole, and that his con queror was likely very soon to give their KING help of quite another kind—to help him on board a Spanish or Austrian ship. Indeed, both men and officers had been kept in the grossest ignorance of facts known all over Europe. We may well conjecture how astonished they must have been Iwhen they saw the Piedmontese, instead of the Austrians, at St. Elmo. It would appear, from the last communications' that the Royalists are likely now to fall back on Gaeta ; large bodies of them, with materiel of war, were seen from St. Angelo leaving Capua for that place: But GARIBALDI is of course in no haste to go after them. They have become, we are told, " very tame," now they have found GARIBALDI'S lines are not to be forced, and that the result of the attack has been to advance them nearer to Capua, and to diminish their own numbers by at least 5,000 men. The last act cannot be long delayed. " Enter the Piedmontese" on the flank and rear of the Royalists and all must be over. Gaeta must share the fate of Ancona if it resists, but probably the new-born courage of the KING will evaporate when bombshells begin to fall around him, and the POPE may order a Te Deum, if he likes, in St. Peter's, for the last BOURBON'S flight from Italy. The Warsaw Conference is to come off at lasi The Empress of RUSSIA has liberated her lord to care for the nations instead of his wife and family ; and, we suppose, on the 22d this Triumvirate of Sovereigns will assemble to settle, if not the affairs of Europe, yet what part they will take in them. One great object they have avowed. They are suspicious of the Franco-Sardinian alliance, and of the principles proclaimed in Italy, and they mean to erect a barrier against their progress. They are a permanent danger, Russia says, to thrones, and of course those R ho sit on thrones reasonably enough take measures to prevent their thrones being over turned. Then France, with her doctrine of the mo dification of frontiers, really has alarmed the Ger mans, and they cluster together like frightened sheep in a field, that they may feel safe from the imagined danger. There may be also minor topics, such as Syria, the Black Sea, and the Danubian provinces ; it is understood that the expedition of France to the first is not liked. The CZAR does not want France to rival his prestige in the East: Russia also does not like the restriction of the treaty of Paris in the Black Sea, and her separation in Bessarabia from the Danube, and it is said that Prussia, and more particularly Austria, are to be invited to aid Russia in getting back what she has so justly forfeited. There can be no doubt that all the Powers whose dominions have been made what they are by rob bing nations - of their nationality, may well be some what alarmed. Nationalities seem now to have found out a way of rising from the dead. If Italy, after a political death of hundreds of years, has thus risen from the dead, has felt its unity, and seized the moment for making it a reality, why not Hungary and why not Poland ? The extinction of the last as a kingdom is almost within the memory of living persons ; and the oppressions of the CZAR in his part have at least had the effect of preserv ing in the minds of this generation of Poles the knowledge that they are not Russians, and the de sire to emancipate themselves from the Russian yoke. But Prussia and Austria have their share of Poland too ; and though the Poles of Prussia have been, setting aside theirgreat political wrong, very fairly dealt with, yet even among them in 1848 the feeling of nationality showed itself very strongly, and were anymove made for Polish liberties in other places, would doubtless do so again. We imagine that the interest of Russia and Prussia in this con ference may be in great part due to Poland, and the possible bearing on it of the promulgation of nationality doctrines. The French EMPEROR has encouraged them. Facts in Italy encourage them, Hungarian demands encourage them; and it be comes the Monarchs therefore to ask in time, what shall we do if these doctrines press upon us ? Is it to be concession partial or complete, or "thorough?, Against the former is the old difficulty, that demands for concession grow. Against the last, that Europe in 1860 shows that " thorough" failed in 1848 — since the nationalities are more exigent than ever. If the course of the infatuated Emperor of AUS TRIA is any indication of the tendency of Imperial and Royal intentions at the coming meeting, it would seem that they are bent on hardening each other's hearts. Ever since the prospect of Russian political friendship has been before him, FRANCIS JOSEPH has mastered all his fears. When the Reichsrath, which he allowed to speak pretty freely, assembled to be prorogued, he bowed them out with a gracious HAPSBURG promise to consider of it, which meant, of course, that he would do nothing. Hungary immediately felt the change—her University at Pesth was shut, political arrests on mere suspicion were nume rously made, and a levy of 85,000 men ordered, of which the heaviest part would fall on Hungary. At the same time the army of Venetia has been largely increased, and poor as the Government is, it has raised and sent soldiers there, with stores of war, to be paid for no one knows when. The great thing is, of course, to quiet Hungary, and this perverse Government seems to think that it can do it by the old process—by coercion and repression. In Hungary all has long been ripe for a movement, the occasion .only is wanted. When will it arrive ? Austria is now aiming at two almost incompatible things—to keep Venetia and Hungary too. Venetia in a corner of a nation of 22 millions of free Italians, of whom it forms an unquestionable part, cannot be kept in slavery but at the cost of an army far larger that its revenues will pay for. It is weak in itself, but not weak with the sympathies of all the Italians and of all forfeoeuAlud u E s u torci ro ca p , e on its side. An attack on Venetia would occupy and all t h e t n h disposablee wo u ldbe H Hungary's militarygary o strength pp o rtu_ nity. Perhaps Austria hopes to get Russia and Prussia to promise to keep down Hungary if Venetia should be attacked. But surely they dare not do it. England would not tolerate another Russian intervention, and in the state of the Rus sian exchequer, and of her difficulties attendant on the emancipation of her serf, it may be doubted whether Russia really could afford to interfere in Hungary. As to Prussia, we cannot think the Regent dare do it, even if inclined. He has too much respect for England to do it. It is not enough a German question to demand his interference on that ground. And, it would really be aiding Austria to weaken herself by obstinacy in a course which keeps her at perpetual variance with half her sub jects. It would doubtless be a bad thing for Hun garian liberties, but if Austria would at once sell •••••••11,MO lIMMOSIRIP THE SUN, LONDON, THIMSDAY EVENING, OCTOBER 11, 1860- AN INFALL. ►F WINTER ! Winter is coming and no mistake. It is even now on our table ! Zadkiel's Almanac for 1861, with its prognostic horrors and predictions of the weather, is freezing our very ink, and almost curdles our brighter liquid, so that we breathe asthmatically. What a cruel man must that Mr. Zadkiel be ! It is only now the 11th of October, and yet we are visited by the grim Astrologer with—his —" winter coming, Sullen and sad with all his rising train — Vapours and clouds and storms 1" What will become of us if thus he starts his game so early in the season! Then, as if these were not enough, we are threatened with the Voice of the Stars, with, we hope, heavenly music, but then here are "numerous useful tables; and a Iliero glyphic—terminating with The Reign of Discord, which promises a very sad catastrophe to our ex pected harmony ! Well, there is nothing like doing it well, with plenty of it, and filling up the cup of horrors to overflowing. If it be not a windfall it may turn out a snow-fall, and drift us off to King dom come before we are aware of the impending avalanche. Wicked Zadkiel ! You have much to answer for. Now, let us put a very simple ques tion to one who promises more than he bargains for. You say that " the new year begins milder than the exit of the old one—(so far so good)—with fog and thick weather, some snow; 2d, high winds; 3d to sth, changes, rain and wind prevail," that is, we suppose, one for each-3d, 4th, and sth—a fair distribution, no doubt. But, then, "stormy„ air, rain, mists and rain again, up to the 9th." Now, as we have had quite enough of heavy wet for the last two days, with storms to boot, we ask Mr. Zadkiel which of these nine days will be the right one in his prophetic second sight ? If he tell us truly, we shall back him against all the Wizards of the North, second-sight canny fellows, and mountain-dew mistifiers included. The reve lation will be a nine days' wonder, indeed. No! no! Mr. Zadkeil ! You may be a clever astronomer, and see the stars double, but we are not to be taken in with moonshine nor the tail of a comet neither. All may be very well when the weather is fine, but not so when the prophecy is at fault rather more often than seldom. The clerk of the weather took it into his head once to suit Mr. Murphy with an exact fit of weather, which, having proved all right, turned poor Murphy's head. Murphy, proud of his success, cast aside his old familiar coat, and tried on a new one next year, without having consulted the weather clerk, or taken his measure, and so the garment wouldn't suit anyhow. Murphy's coat was so unlike Joseph's, of many colours, that it was of no colour at all ! The Clerk of the Weather took it in high dudgeon, and would neither rain nor snow, nor blow high nor low; in short, he would not blow at all, so that poor Murphy was himself at last completely blown up ! Thus it comes of promises—they are pinch easier made than per formed, as we know to our cost. We hope it may not turn out so to Mr, Zadkiel, but that his prophecies may " come off" all right, Why does he not try his luck at Capel Court ? there he might retrieve the fortunes of many a lame duck, and possibly better his own. Now, in justice to our far-seeing guide, philo sopher, and friend we shall give his " VOICE OF THE STARS—JANUARY, 1861. " AAN BALA NABUD KE AZ BALA BUD. ' That evil which cometh from above is not evil,' saith the Persian proverb, and the men of England•will do well to remember this. For the year 1861 opens with the violent Mars entering the ruling sign of England, and squaring Mer cury at the same time, whence violence and tumult arouse the land, and quarrels and mischief are the order of the day. Much excitement exists ; public meetings are held, and I hope they will not exceed prudent discussion : but men's minds are sadly disturbed. In short, the British Lion is aroused, and woe to those whose factious opposition to the rights of the people endanger the peace of the realm. The happy stay of Jupiter in the ruling sign of France, and Italy will bring peace to those much vexed lands, and this, in spite of the malicious approach of Saturn to the ascen dant of the Emperor. He will be troubled this month about his finances, and be vexed by some clerical questions at the very threshold of the year. Mars and Mercury will trouble William 111., King of the Netherlands. He be comes very pugnacious, and he may suffer in his head. In the Ottoman empire, there are strange troubles reigning, chiefly financial, and sudden changes therein connected with religious matters." And we finish with his prayer for December, in which we cordially join. "But I hope all these sinister symptoms will disappear before the happy influences which will usher in the now year 1861 And thus let us join in the prayer, never more needed, that Heaven may teach our senators wisdom, and give the people patience." PLANS OF NAPOLEON 1. RESPECTING THE PAPACY. The following drafts of decrees, lately published for the first time by the Chevalier Gennarelli, in his work, " I Lutti dello Stato Romano," have just appeared in the preface of the second edition of Mr. Arthur's " Italy in Transition ;" " N. 69 Pr. r, KINGDOM OF ITALY.-DRAFT OF DECREE. " Registered N. " Subject of the Decree.—First Roman Statute. " Napoleon, by the grace of God, and by the constitu tions, Emperor of the French, King of Italy, Protector of the Confederation of the Kingdom.

I. Rome is a free imperial city. " Art. 11. The Palace of the Quirinal, with its depen dencies, is declared an imperial palace. " Art. 111. The boundary between the Roman territory is fixed by a line which, departing from Certeveri, passes by Baccano, Palestrina, Marino, Albino, Monterotondo, Palom bare, Tivoli, and, following a distance of two miles from the sea, again touches Certeveri. "Art. IV. The territory of the villages (paesi) inter sected by the beforenamed line constitutes the circumscrip tion of Rome, except all that which lies between the sea and the line itself. "Art. V. A senator and a magistracy of 40 conservators form the government of the city and of its territory. Art. VI. The execut've power is vested in the senator ; the legislative in the magistracy of conservators. The senator init;ates laws. The office of senator is for life; that of conservator for four years. "Art. IX. The senator is always appointed by ourselves and our successors. For this present time we reserve also the right to appoint the magistracy of conservators. Here after, when they must be replaced, the senator fills up vacancies from a double list presented to him by the magis tracy." "KINGDOM OF ITALY.-DRAFT OF DECREE. " Registered N. F. " Subject of the Decree.—Annexation of the districts com- . posing the Roman States in the Kingdom of Italy.

" Napolon, by the grace of God and by the constitu tions, Emperor of the French, King of Italy, Protector of the Confederation of the Kingdom. " Considering our first Roman statute, we have decreed, and do decree as follows : " Art, I. The church and square of St. Peter's, the palace in the Vatican, and that of the Holy Office, with their dependencies, freely belong to his Holiness. " Art. 11. The chapter and the building of St. Peter's have preserved to them all their property, under such an administration as the Pope shall be pleased to appoint. His Holiness shall receive an annual revenue of a million of Italian lire, and shall preserve all his honours which he has enjoyed in the past. " Given from our Imperial Palace of St. Cloud this - day of September, 1808." His Excellency the Prussian Minister and the Countess Bernstorff have left Alnwiek Castle, where they have been visiting the Duke and Duchess of Northumber land, for a tour of visits in Scotland. It; . Venetia to Italy ;be would liberate half her army, and get perhaps ten millions sterling for the exchequer. - At a superficial glance the sudden and utter col lapse of the Neapolitan monarchy might appear to be a wholly inexplicable phenomenon. Among the Powers of the earth it was one by no means contemptible in its dimensions, or in its capabilities. In mere territory it comprised an area equivalent to one half of Great Britain. Its population numbered very little short of 10,000,000—the latest census giving a return of fully 9,500,000. The inhabi tants of its capital alone approximated to half a million, or, to be precise, yielded a return of 420,000 altogether. The royal army consisted in round numbers of some 80,000 men of all arms, nominally well-disciplined and always particularly well cared for by a despotism situated in a climate of exquisite salubrity. The machinery of its police, moreover, was organised with the most scrupulous and cautious elaboration —its working being conducted always with inflexi ble determination. The civil part of the population awed into subjection by the police and ground down to the dust under the heels of the military— might not unreasonably have been regarded, but a few months back, as altogether too emasculated and effeminated ever to attempt vigorously to relieve themselves from the thraldom of this detested Government. Yet it is this armed, pitiless, inexor able system of tyranny that has abruptly fallen to pieces ! It is this depressed and enervated race that has suddenly thrown off the yoke—thrown it off at the first summons—thrown it off (merely with the assistance of that summons)—themselves ! The greatest Adventurer of modern times—call him whateveryou please,Condottieri,B uccaneer,Brigand, Revolutionist—still,in no invidious sense of the word the greatest and the most heroic Adventurer of modern times—GARIBALDI—a Soldier of Fortune, having scarcely any more worldly possession than the sword slung by his thigh—lands with a handful of men on the shores of Sicily, marches inland, and lo ! at his mere coming, at the mere terror of his name 25,000 soldiers lay down their arms ! He is master of Palermo—master of Messina—master of Sicily. Shortly afterwards he crosses, without much hesitation, his Rubicon—the Straits of Mes sina. At his appearance all Calabria rises in revolt —it is like one of those fires we read of sweeping upon the wings of the hurricane over the surface of an American prairie—a spark, and the whole land is in conflagration. GARIBALDI has landed—not even 5,000 or 10,000 men have landed, but GARI BALDI has Ianded—GARIBALDI is advancing upon the capital ! Down goes the whole fabric of Nea politan despotism at a crash. The terrible, übi quitous, inscrutable Police are (like the ruck on the Derby day) nowhere ! The royal troops desert by regiments, by battalions. The residue retreat en masse, with the KING himself, from the capital upon which GARI BALDI is advancing. The Liberator is advancing, not by forced marches at the head of his armed followers. He is hastening on to Naples almost alone—now in a common post carriage—now in the public train upon the railway—like any ordinary passenger. One fine morning General GARIBALDI rides into Naples attended simply by his Staff—no brilliant uniforms, no drums and trumpets, none of the " pride, pomp, and circumstance of glorious war" that SHAKESPEARE sings of—his sombrero is dusty and travel-stained, he has his old red shirt on, his grey breeches are said to be darned—yet is he in mere external aspect " every inch a Kin g"— a King of Men—a Hero—a Conqueror. At the sound of his name the whole monarchy of the Two Sicilies has gone down, and vanished from the capital—as literally and absolutely as the solid battlements of Jericho fell before the clangour of the trumpets of the Israelites. FERDINAND 11. has gone off hurriedly in the direction of Gaeta, with his 40,000 or 50,000 men, beating a hasty retreat be hind the line of the Volturno. A spectacle so astounding as all this might be presumed we say to be, at a superficial glance, altogether inexplicable. But it is not. The pheno menon, wonderful though it is, admits very readily indeed of explanation. It is within the grasp of the most ordinary comprehension: It is a problem the solution of which was given nine years ago by anticipation. Who has forgotten Mr. GLADSTONE'S letters to the Earl of ABERDEEN ? Letters about the prisons of Naples printed and published, and read, far and wide, with horror, and by many with incredulity as long ago as 1851—letters that have since run through fourteen editions, and that yet remain in all essential particulars unanswered ! Recently, as will have been remarked, Lord LLAN OVER—and yet more recently Mr. EDWIN JAMES, M.P. for Marylebone—each in turn has said " Ditto to Mr. BURKE ;" has, in the matter of these Prisons of Naples, explicitly, formally, deli berately corroborated the fearful accounts fur nished to England, to all Europe, fully nine long years ago by Mr. GLADSTONE. On Tuesday even ing we gave Lord LLAN OVER'S painful but deeply interesting communication. - Yesterday we gave Mr. E. JAMES'S less detailed but no less categorical enforcement of Mr. GLADSTONE'S appalling state ments. Our readers have, doubtless, like ourselves read through these terrible records of monarchical cruelty with the heart sickening during the perusal, sickening with mingled disgust and abhorrence. Any recapitulation here of the loathsome particu lars were, of course, superfluous. We may happily content ourselves with referring those who may not yet have fully acquainted themselves with the facts thus brought to our knowledge, to the record of those facts, as given by the hon. and learned gentleman the member for Marylebone, by the noble lord late the Minister of Public Works, and years and years back by the right hon. gentleman the Chancellor of her MAJESTY'S Exchequer. Remembering those facts—no wonder, we may exclaim, no wonder the Neapolitan Monarchy has collapsed thus utterly, and suddenly, and ignominiously. Undermined by those rotten and half-decomposing dungeons of cruelty—it is surely no marvel in the wo,rld that, at the resounding footsteps of GARIBALDI, it has sank with a crash in ruins to its very foundations. HER MAJESTY'S THEATRE. Mr. E. T. Smith commenced his winter campaign last evening with Verdi's "II Trovatore," the principal charac ters in which were supported by Madlle. Titiens, Madame Lemaire, Signor Vialetti, Signor Briani, and Signor Giug lini. The band and c horus were nearl y the same as durin the last summer seas on, and Si g nor Arditi was a gain the conductor. The house has been differently arranged, for a spacious balcony occupies the centre of the grand tier, in front of the private boxes, and new crimson curtains replace the old amber ones. Madlle. Titiens, who was in the best possible voice and vein, never perhaps sang or acted the arduous part of Leonora more finely. Signor Giuglini sang with intense passion and exquisite beauty the well-known music of Manrico. Signor Briani is quite new to the London stage ; he is an intelligent and an experienced actor, and sings with genuine feeling. The Azucena of Madame Lemaire presented many highly meri torious features, and Signor Vialetti, in the small but im portant part of Ferrando, was all that could be wished. The orchestra was conducted by Signor Arditi with his usual ability. The house was crowded in every part. BRIGIITON.—The town continues well filled, and houses in the best situations as fast as they are empty tTO engaged.

(PROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.) DEPARTURE OF THE ROYAL FAMILY FROM THE ISLE OF WlGHT.—Monday is now fixed on for the departure of the junior branches of the Royal Family from Osborne. CORONER'S INQUEST.—A great deal of excitement was created on Sunday by a report that Harry Clarke, one of the boatmen plying from the Parade, had killed his wife. The woman had been ill a long time, and was very much addicted to drinking. The husband was often a good deal the worse for liquor, and they were constantly quarrelling and fighting to the great annoyance of their neighbours. Clarke had repeatedly knocked his wife down, and on its being stated that the body was covered with bruises an in quest was held,.on Monday evening, and a most wretched sight it was to the jurors—the arms, &c., being covered with wounds and bruises. Witnesses were examined as to the ill-treatment the woman was subject to, and to her con tinually screaming and complaining of being beaten. After an investigation of three hours, the jury returned a verdict of " natnslaughter " against the husband, and Clarke was committed on the coroner's warrant to take his trial at the next assizes at Winchester. The Earl of Aberdeen, accompanied by Colonel the Hon. Alexander and Mrs. Gordon, and the Hon. Arthur Gordon, has arrived at Argyll House, from Haddo House, the noble earl's seat in Aberdeenshire. We are happy to learn that his lordship is in excellent health. • The Duchess (Emily) of Beaufort and Lady Edith Somerset have arrived in town from visiting 1 , is count and Lady Blanche Dupplin, at Dupplin Castle, Perth- shire. The Duke of Bedford, who entertained a large party last week at Woburn Abbey, has left Woburn for Oakley Park. The Marchioness (Dowager) of Lothian and Lady Alice Kerr have arrived at Knowsley' Park on a visit to the Earl and Countess of Derby, an d to be present at the wedding of Lady Emma Stanley and Colonel the Hon. IV. P. M. C. Talbot. The Earl and Countess of Shrewsbury and the Ladies Gertrude and Adelaide Talbot, arrived on Tuesday at Knowsley Park, on a visit to the Earl and Countess of Derby, from Ingestre Hall. Viscount and Viscountess Palmerston have re turned to Broadlands, near Romsey, from visiting the Earl and Countess of Shaftesbury, at St. Gile's, Dorset. Lady Milford has returned to town from visiting her father, the Earl of Wicklow, at his lordship's seat in the county Wicklow, Ireland. The Duke of Devonshire and Lady Louisa Caven dish have arrived at Hard wicke Hall, near Chesterfield, from Holkar Hall, Lancashire. The noble duke will shortly receive a select circle of visitors. " M. Paul Aumont," says the Sport, " has re fused an offer of 90,000 f. for his filly Mon. Etoile. This is the highest sum ever offered for a French horse. The late M. Aumont sold Monarque, Mane. de Chantilly, Zouave, and 27 other horses for only 150,000 f." THE NEAPOLITAN PRISON U.S.—A communica tion from Naples of the 3d, in the Debats, says :—" In the afternoon of the Ist, General Sirtori telegraphed to the Minister of War that 2,000 prisoners were about to arrive at Naples, and he begged that the National Guard might be called out to receive them. I saw these unfortunate men pass between two lines of blue coats and red shirts. Some vagabonds attempted to massacre the Bavarians who were recognised by their grey coats, and the National Guard had to use the bayonet to defend them. Yet the people who wanted to assail the prisoners would not have gone to Cspua to attack them, and some months back took them by the hand ' • the spectacle was a disgusti ng . one. And this is what half a century of tyranny has made of this people! The wealthy citizens are no better. The evening before last a requisition for vehicles to convey the wounded was made, but almost every one closed his stable and his carriage shed, or pestered the foreign consuls of his ac quaintance to receive his horses and vehicles in their resi dences in order that they might be inviolable. Yesterday beds were demanded for the hospitals, which the Kinrs, in taking to flight, had left empty, but the Neapolitans se creted their furniture, and recourse had to be made to the keepers of public houses, who displayed great reluctance to give up their effects." BANKRUPTCIES THIS YEAR.—It appears that the bankruptcy rata this year is slightly above : the usual ave rage, although the excess has principal:y occurred in the metropolitan district. The total number of bankruptcies gazetted in the nine months ending Sept. 30, was 864, being at the rate of 1,152 per annum, while the average for the last 10 years has been 1,090. The bankruptcies in the Li verpool district have been 49 ; in the Manchester, 40 ; in the Birmingham, 137 ; in the Leeds, 81; in the Bristol, 70 ; in the Exeter, $6 ; and in the Newcastle, 26. The bank , ruptcy rate in the provincial districts just enumerated has been 585 as compared with 565 in the corresponding ten years ; in the London district 567, as compared with 525 in the previous decade, • STEAM CARRIAGES ON COMMO N R OADS .— The Council of "Wick met on Tuesday for the purpose of pre senting the honorary burgess ticket to the Earl of Caithness. In acknowledging the honour the noble earl referred to the subject of the propelling of steam carriages on common roads. His lordship entered on an interesting history of this invention, disclaiming for himself all right to the merit of inventing it, though admitting he had been the first to employ the steam carriage to anything like the extent he had dene. His lordship detailed the construction of the engine, and referred to certain improvements which he had himself introduced, adding to the safety and simplicity of travelling, and narrating a variety of amusing and interest ing incidents in connection with his own experience in thus travelling. Three cheers having been given for the Countess of Caithness, her ladyship said, "This is one of the proudest and happiest days of my life, to see my husband made a burgess of ick, and to think that he, a Caithness man, has taught the people in the south that it is possible to cross the Ord in a steam carriage, which many of them regarded as an impossibility. (Loud cheers.) I am sure that as long as Caithness can boast of a steam carriage propelled on its common roads, it has no cause to be ashamed, and may claim to itself what the Americans would style the character of a go ahead country." PRIZE SHOOTING ON A LARGE SCALE AT HASTINGS.—The beautiful little valley near Hastings, known as Ecclesbourne Glen, was on Monday the scene of a rifle match, or rather a series of rifle matches, on a large scale. The contest was chiefly among the members of the Cinque Ports Corps, but others joined in the competition for some of the prizes. The first prize was a Lancaster rifle, value 10 guineas, which was won by Mr. Webb, who scored 15 points in 10 shots, at 200 and 300 yards. Lieut. Crake, and Messrs. Penhall and Hildred gained 14 points each ; and in shooting off for the tie for the second prize (a silver medal) and the third prize (a bronze medal) Mr. Hildred won the second, and Mr. Penhall the third prize. A contest then took place between 12 members of the Ist Company of Cinque Port Rifles (Hastings) and 12 members of the 3d Company (Rye), ranges 200 and 300 yards, 10 shots at each distance, when the Hastings Company proved victorious, making 119 points to the Rye Company's 115. A prize cup was also shot for, value 17 guineas, and a second prize of five guineas, which, after a close contest of four shots at 300 and one at 400 yards, resulted in Mr. Webb winning the cup, and Mr. C. Brittenden the guineas. AN ATROCIOUS CHILD MURDER.—On Sunday last a rumour went through the village of Stokeinteignhead, near Newton Abbot, that a servant girl named Elizabeth Hooper, aged about 19 years, in the employ of Mr. 'William Bond, had committed a most revolting and atrlcious child murder. On inquiry, it appeared that on Sunday forenoon the young woman, during the absence of her master and mis tress at church, gave birth to a child, and immediately cut its head off and attempted to burn it in the grate. The family returned fi om church somewhat earlier than ex pected, and Mr. Bond, on entering the house, perceived a very afrrecable odour, and, on approaching the grate, he saw, with horror, the head of a newly-born child on the fire. He immediately raised an alarm, and the police were soon on the spot, searching for the remainder of the infant, which they soon succeeded in discovering, wrapped up in a portion of the mother's clothing. The young woman was imme diately taken into custody. She had been in Mr. Bond's service for several months. On Monday an inquest was held on the body, and adjourned in order to await the re sult of a post marten examination. THE Loss OF NORTH COUNTRY SHIPS--SHIELDS, Tuesday Night.—The distressing particulaTs from Lloyd's, which appeared in The Sun, of the fearful loss of ship ping in the Baltic, and the narrow sea leading thence from the North Sea, confirm the anxiety expressed with regard to north country vessels in a letter sent from here on Saturday night. The brigs Carlisle and Tiberias men tioned in the report published in The Sun, belonged to South Shields. They have perished with the whole of their crews. Mr. Ridley, the master of the Tiberias, had his son with him also, and the loss of north country seamen in those two vessels alone will reach, officers, men, and lads, at least to 20 souls. The Hendon, a Sunderland ship, was also last on her passage from Cronstadt for London. The master and mate and four of the hands suffered with her. The following vessels which are wrecked in the Baltic, or near to the Elbe, are all insured in Tyne Clubs :—Tho Carlisle, the Tiberias, the Marsden, the St. Lawrence, the Alnwiell Packet, and the Feliza, belonging to Shields ; the Janicsons, belonging to Wallsend, and the Water Kelpie, belonging to Blytli. The vessels with cargoes would be worth considerably more than £2,000 each. From infer. illation brought in by vessels to the Tyne, there is reason to fear that several small craft have perished in the neigh bourhood of the Fern Islands and north of Holy Island during the gale of Wednesday, as a good deal of wreck has been observed floating about.

FRANCE. A Paris letter in the Independance contains the following passage :—" Count Cavour's last speech has greatly annoyed Austria, especially the phrase in which he says that he will leave Venetia to Aus tria—for the moment. It is certain that overtures have been made by England to persuade Austria to sell Venetia, but this occurred some weeks ago. Count de Reehberg rejected the suggestion with the more energy, from his well knowing the Emperor's sentiments on the question. When his Majesty was one day walking in the park of Schoenbrunn, with several of the Archdukes, one of them said that he should consider the loss of Venice as a dis grace to the House of Hapsburg and a reproach to Germany. The Emperor turned round, and, in an excited manner, remarked, When such a catas trophe happens, I shall have ceased to exist.'

The Offeial Gazette of Naples, of the 4th instant, publishes a decree appointing the Marquis Giorgio Pallaricino Trivulzio Pro-Dictator at Naples, in the stead of Major-General Sirtori, who voluntarily re signs the post to devote himself to the defence of the country. This decree is signed by Garibaldi, and counter-signed by Crispi. One of the first acts of the new Pro-Dictator was to address the following letter to Mazzini : " To THE ILLUSTRIOUS GIUSEPPE MAZZINI. Self-denial has always been the virtue of the generous. I believe that you are generous, and I. now offer you an opportunity of showing yourself so to your fellow-citizens. Representa tive of the Republican principle, and indefati gable defender of that principle, you arouse, by remaining among us, the mistrust of the King - a nd of his Mi n i sters. Thi s i s w h y your prese nce in this country creates embarrassment to the Government andcompromising that dangers to the nation, concord which is indispensable to the advance an the triumph of the Italian cause. " Even without intending it, you divide us. Per form, then, an act of patriotism by leaving these provinces. Add to former sacrifices a new one which the country demands from you, and the country will be grateful to you. "I repeat it —even without intending it, you divide us, and it is necessary that all the national forces should be united in one bond. I know that your words preach concord, and I doubt not that your acts respond to your words. But all do not believe you, and there are many who misuse your name with the parricidal intention of hoisting another banner in Italy. Honour commands you to put an end to the suspicions of some and to the machina tions of others. Show yourself great by leaving Naples, and you will take with you the praises of all honest men.—l subscribe myself yours devoted, " GIORGIO PALLAVICINO. " Naples, Oct. 3, 1860." AUSTRIA. The Ost•Deutsche Post of Vienna publishes the following article on the interview at Warsaw : " Abstraction made of high policy, the interview of Warsaw will have for Austria the advantage of causing a neighbour whose empire joins her, for mere than 100 German miles to enter into better relations with hers We will not return to the events of 1855 6 ; but it is our confident conviction that the spite which Russia since that epoch has manifested for Austria is not justified. Even at that period Austria rendered important services to Russia as a good neighbour, and we will even say that the sentiments of friendship which the Court of Vienna maintained even in those pain ful circumstances for the Court of St. Peters burg were in some sort the cause of the difficult situation in which Austria now finds herself. If Austria had frankly rallied to the Anglo-French alliance, the ill-feeling which after the peace of 1856 existed between the Cabinets of London and Paris and ours would not have prevailed and Piedmont would not have obtained at the expense of Austria the protection of France and England; Russia would only have secured peace under much more unfavourable conditions, and Austria would have obtained advantage thereby. But by the mid position which Austria, on account of her former fr iendly relations with Russia, assumed, the war, instead of taking place in Bessarabia, was removed to the Crimea, and exhausted all its forces against a single fortress. The loss which Russia sustained, however painful it may appear to a Russian patriot, is not in proportion to that which a direct partici pation of Austria in the war would have occasioned; whilst by imposing on herself new charges on ac count of the Eastern war, and by the !consequences of her forbearance towards Russia, which indis posed the Western Powers against her, she has sus tained great injury both in her financial and politi cal situation. This is what ought to be calmly appreciated at St. Petersburg." On this the Nord remarks : " Thus Austria rendered service to Russia in the Eastern war by the simple fact that she did not de. clare more energetically for the Anglo-French alli ance. What! you boast of having tied the hands of your ' friend,' in order that he might not defend himself against those who attacked him, and yet you expect to be praised for not having joined your blows to those of the others. • . The ost-Deutsche Post pretends that the condescension of Austria to Russia in the Eastern war was the cause of the finan cial distress and political reverses which the empire of the Hapsburgs suffers. Therefore, if Austria had taken a direct part in the Eastern war, Lombardy would still belong to her, Italy would be still bent under the yoke, France and England would sanction her abhorred domination over a great nation, and civilised Europe would applaud ! Such logic as this passes our understanding. The following is an extract from a Vienna letter of the 6th : " Much is said in this capital of a negotiation said to be going on between the English and Austrian Cabinets, having for object the cession to the former of two or three of the numerous small islands whiCh Austria owns in the Adriatic. It is well known that England has for some time past testified a desire to possess in that sea a station or port of refuge for her squadron, but hitherto the Imperial Government would never listen to the overtures made to it on the subject. England has now re turned to the charge with greater earnestness, think ing that circumstances are more in her favour. No one, however, knows whether or no these fresh attempts will be crowned with success. Everything will necessarily depend on the issue of the struggle which Austria will, at a more or less distant period, have to support against Piedmont, or rather the whole of Italy, in defence of her Venetian possessions. If the fate of arms be favourable to Austria, It is not thought that the Imperial Government will accede to the wishes of England, the Adriatic having always been considered by the European Powers as an internal sea, exclusively Austrian. It is stated that General Count de Pouilly Mens dorff, charged to go to Coburg to compliment Queen Victoria in the name of the Emperor Francis Joseph, has been instructed to follow up the nego tiations relative to this cession with Lord John Russell. There are some who go so far as to con nect with those negotiations the despatch recently addressed by Lord John Russell to Sir James Hud son at Turin, and in which the English Cabinet made warm remonstrances against any enterprise on the part of Piedmont against the Austrian pos. sessions in Venetia."
