IRELAND. DUBLIN, Nov. 15. An explosion of gas, which occasioned great alarm, occurred yesterday morning in the Court house, Green-street. It was at first supposed to be the work of Fenian incendiaries, especially as the part of the building in which it occurred is occupied by Crown witnesses and jurors. On examination, however, it became evidenttbat it arose purely from accident. The gas bad been allowed to escape dur ing the night in the Clerk of the Peace's office, and when a servant woman entered the apartment, shortly before 9 o'clock, to light the fire it exploded with destructive effect. The roof and windows were blown away, the doors of a set of zooms along a corridor outside the office were burst open, and the furniture smashed to piecs. Windows on the oppo site side of the street were also shattered. As the unhappy jurors are doomed in the present unsatis factory state of the law to be imprisoned within the Court-house during the trial of the case in which they are sworn, apprehensions for their safety were at once excited. Fortunately, however, some of them had left a room in which they had slept imme diately before the accident, or, in all probability, they would have been seriously injured. A party of six policemen occupied the room for Crown wit nesses. All the occupants of the building escaped unhurt. The woman who lighted the fire had her hair burnt, and was rendered insensible, but, except the shock to her nervous system, she sustained no injury. It is reported that three women living in Green-street, whose condition rendered them pecu liarly susceptible of fright, are the only sufferers who claim any sympathy, having had their domestic calculations thrown into sad confusion by the effects of the accident. The trial of Costello was resumed at the sitting of the Commisssion Court with the further eroas-exami nation of the witness Corydon. He stated that he attended the Fenian meetings in Liverpool as an American officer. He was known personally to more than 1,000 Fenians. He knew eight or nine Centres in Dublin, and also knew Fenians in Cork. He attended a meeting of 1,000 Fenians in London, at which a subscription was raised for the defence of the Manchester prisoners. He expected to get more than £lOO from the Government for bis informa tion. John Devany, another informer, gave evi dence as to the connection of the prisoner with the conspiracy. Daniel Buckley, one of the "Erin Hope" expedition, repeated the statement which he made on the first trial, as did also Gallagher, the pilot, and some Coastguards and fishermen. Constable Irwin, who arrested the prisoner along with Buckley and Lawless, after the landing near Dungarvan, swore that he was wet to the waist. On cross-exa mination he said he had no information, and was not examined on the last trial. Mr. Redmond, re sident magistrate, who was present at the arrest, corroborated the constable as to the three prisoners being wet. On cross-examination he said he would not swear that he felt Costello's clothes. Other wit nesses were examined to prove the arrest of the whole party after landing, and the rising of the sth March in the county of Dublin. 'lwo warders of Kilmainham Gaol, along with the governor and deputy governors, gave evidence respecting docu ments in the prisoner's handwriting which were given in proof, and the Court was adjourned until this morning. John F. Nugent, one of the prisoners who was acquitted at Manchester and re-arrested, has been conveyed to Drogheda, his native town, where his return created no little sensation on Wednesday after noon. Precautions had been deemed necessary to prevent any attempt at rescue. The prisoner, who is about 23 years of ago, and 6ft. in height, served his time to his father, who is a builder. His Fenian sympathies brought him under the notice of the police at an early period, and in Oct., 1865, he was arrested on a warrant from the Lord Lieutenant, and after four months' imprisonment was liberated ou giving heavy bail. In May, 1866, he was again arrested by the police, who found him in a back parlour in his • father's house. lie contrived,: however, to engage them in conversation while suddenly throwing up the sash, and springing from the window, a height of from 12ft. to lift., with extraordinary agility, he succeeded in effecting his escape. The most careful search was made for him, but without effect. He got off from Drogheda in disguise, and made his way to Manchester, where he followed his trade as carpenter until he again fell into the hands of the police in consequence of the attack upon the police van. He was not present at the rising in Drogheda, having, it is said, left the town four months before the outbreak. A man named Foley, who stated that be was a blacksmith, wa3 brought up at Kenmare petty ses sions on Wednesday, charged with the illegal pos session of arms. He was remanded for further in quiry. Some importance is attached to his arrest by the police. It is stated in a Cork paper that straggling parties of Americans are hovering about the locality in the hope of being able to organise another " rising." No evidence of their presence has yet been a fforied, and the police are constantly on the alert. DUBLIN, Friday Evening. Costello has been convicted, and will be sentenced to-morrow. It is understood that Warren and Halpin wil also be sentenced to-morrow. The proceedings of the Commission have termi nated, except the sentences. The remaining prisoners will be tried at Sligo. THE ROMAN QUESTION. A letter from Rome, dated Nov. 9, says : After I had posted my letter to you last week I met the Holy Father on the Bridge of St. Angelo. He was looking fairly well but a little pale and thoughtful. He takes the greatest interest in the sufferings of the wounded soldiers, and has ordered every available space in the Quirinal to be devoted to affording additional hospital room. He gave up his animal visit to St. Carlo in Corso, on the 4th, I hear, because he felt the pomp and ceremonial which accompanies it out of place amid present anxieties. On the sth he received in private audi ence his Excellency lion Alessandro de Castro, accredited Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipo tentiary from her most Catholic Majesty. The Spanish Ambassador visited Cardinal Antonelli the same day, according to usual etiquette. Yesterday there was a Mortuary Mass in the Sixtine Chapel for the souls of all those who have fallen in the late action. The Holy Father was present, and gave the absolution. His voice was much agitated as he did so. I spoke last week, but I think I hardly dwelt suf ficiently, of one of the most remarkable and signi ficant incidents of the present struggle, namely, the way in which the guardianship of the Vatican is confided almost entirely to Romans and volun teers. The historic Swiss guard, indeed, in their gorgeous apparel, walk up and down and make unsurpassed foreground incidents to its time honoured vistas, but they carry never a gun, and their slender lances looked as if they might be snapped in twain by a child. The real defenders of the person of the Roman Pontiff are the Pala tine or National Guard, composed entirely of towns-people, who volunteer their services freely without counting the cost in the interruption of business and family arrangements. More than this, they have lately offered to devote themselves to any military service for the defence and &Jen rity of the city. The Roman Government is under so little apprehension as to the tdmper of the Roman people that it does not feel called upon to interfere with *the papers for reproducing the bombastic proclamations of Garibaldi and his " Generals," ,or the most mischievous and spiteful misrepresentations of the Italian papers. On the contrary, they fill sheets with these things every day, and contribute one large item of mirth at least, amid all that is sad around us, to the con versation of our lengthening evenings. The French troops continue to come in in small detachments, but they have not as yet, at least, taken the prominent part they assumed when last here. They have so far ,only acted as auxiliaries, which is very well, in so far that itputs the Pope's troops in their proper place ; but it does not look As if the Eniperca meant to be very energet- • -• is as yet most difficult to guess what his intenti_ons are. The men appear to show a better spirit,, than when here before, towards the local troops. The latter have shown themselves such thorough. soldiers that every one, not utterly blinded byl prejudice, must honour them. The French have held out their hands to them with frank and. soldierly cor diality. I extract the following on the subject from a Roman paper : " On Thursday evening the wl . tole staff of tini Pontifical officers entertained at a banquet the officers of the various French c , nips which have come to share with our brave def anders the great cause of the Roman Pontificate. The greatest cordiality reigned on both sides. The soldiers of the great French nation pressed. the hands of our men, expressing aloud, and in the -warmest terms, - the admiration they entertained fop the Pontifical . army, which in the space of Mile more than a month has given the world such brilliant evi dences of their military bravery, honour, and loyalty. This acknowledgment, offered by the noble and generous army of France is a first and• welcome recompense to our good and brave sol diers, while a more solemn and general testimony will shortly be rendered them by the most culti vated and civilized ,nation of Europe." You know by this time that the Italian troops entered the Pontifical territory at several points, among others Orte, Civita Castellana on the north, and Ceprano, Frosinone, and 'Terracing on the south, the very day that the French entered Rome, the 30th of October. Between these positions and Rome were posted the Garibaldini as the pioneers • of the regular army. At Velletri they organized, or pretended to organize, a plebiscite under the auspices of Nicotera ; votes of mere children were taken, but even so the final result was miserable. The Garibildians were divided into three bodies —that of Nicotera at Velletri, of Acerbi at Viterbo, and of Garibaldi at Monte Rotondo, in all more than 15,000 men. Under Garibaldi were 12,000. Acerbi and Nicotera gave each other the title of pro-dit-tatori, of course pointing to Garibaldi as the dittatore. They issued proclamations, in which they declared the Pope bereft of his temporal sovereignty, and gave regulations for what they called the Ministry of Public Instruction. I have no such precise information as to the numbers in the effective detachments of the Italian regular troops ; but there was this difference in the conduct of their leaders that they affected an appearance of re spect for the temporal sovereignty. Thus at Civita Castellana they set up the Pontifical arms which had been torn down by the " patriots ;" it is true they whispered under breath as they did so, " Wait a little, our time is not yet come." Meantime, at Florence it was being published that these commanders had been assailed by peti tions from the Roman population, imploring an immediate annexation. Of course this is false. if any such petition was sent in it was from a small knot of individuals, and not from the population. The revolutionists do not generally show them selves very courageous in this part of the world ; they never compromise themselves until they have a certainty they can do so with impunity ; they remember too well how in 1860, when the whole province of Viterbo was occupied by the Italian troops, they had organized a plebiscite producing, of course, the most prodigious results, they thought their whole work done. Duke Sforza Cesarini was already named a royal commissary. Then one fine morning General De Goyon received orders from Paris to send 1,500 French troops down from Rome. Here was a dilemma. General De Goyon, wishing to hurt no one's feelings, wrote the night before "Al Signore Sindaco di Viterbo," to an nounce that 1,500 French soldiers would arrive on the morrow, and he would be good enough to ap point them quarters. The letter thus addressed was, of course, taken to the Pontifical Sindaco, who sent it on to the Sindaco created by the Pied montese. This closed the farce, for the next day there were neither Italian troops, nor Commissary Royal, nor Piedmontese Sindaco, to be found in all 'Viterbo, and the day after the French marched in without let or hindrance. On the 2nd of November Garibaldi divided his men between Monte Rotondo and Mentana. These two little towns are about two miles apart,' on the left bank of the Tiber, about sixteen miles from Rome. Monte Rotondo has a population of 2,500; Mentana not more than 6000. He seems to have kept up a certain amount of discipline. He is said to have had four of his men shot for stealing sheep, but he seems to have had no regulation against blasphemy, outraging women, or insulting and ill-treating priests. His followers kept their horses in the church of Monte Rotondo, regardless of the indignation of the inhabitants. At four o'clock in the morning of the 3rd inst., about 5,000 men started from Rome for Monte Ro tondo. It was an expedition indeed. There were about 3,000 Pontificals, commanded by General de Courten and 2 ,000 French, under the command of Brigadier-General de Polhes, General Kanzler holding the supreme command. The French had only two or three priests from St. Luigi dei Fran cesi, who volunteered to accompany them in place of chaplains ; but each Pontifical corps had one or two chaplains of its own. In time of war the Pontifical chaplains ride on horseback, but in secular dress. They bear on their breasts a silver custode, containing the sacred particles, so that they may give Communion to the dying soldier without spending time in casting about to find a church. The French ambulance service and vic tualling department was admirably organized, but the Pontifical carps was badly appointed in both these respects ; however, several pious laymen, just arrived from Paris—MM. Keller, Ozanam, Benoist-d'Azy, &c., had followed the Pontifical volunteers into the field with Sisters of Charity and carriages and appliances for the wounded. With them was also a courageous English lady, Mrs. Stone. This lady has been seen quietly attending a group of wounded, paying no more heed to the balls flying about her than an old sol dier. It would not be worth while to fill up your columns with minute details of the battle which happened on the 3rd and 4th, seeing that this account cannot be published till the 16th. The following particulars, however, will be interesting to your readers, as they were collected on the spot, and will not be found in any other paper. The Pontifical column marched at the head of the expedition, and arrived at the scene of action at 1 p.m., on the 3rd. The French column marched a few miles behind as a corps of reserve. The Zouaves marched first. It rained up to eight o'clock, but without damping the ardour of the men. They halted at ten for breakfast on a slice of bread moistened by the rain, and a bit of meat which each man carried in his knapsack. Up to one o'clock they saw no signs of the enemy ; for, it would seem, Garibaldi had been informed of the line our troops were to take. His agent in this affair is thought to have been Mrs. Mario (White) again, whom he had sent into Rome as a spy two nights before (she has now been recommended by the police to keep quietly in her hotel) ; and thus he was enabled to establish his outposts very wisely about two miles on the Mentana-road. They received the Zouaves with a murderous fire, and this brave corps had to lament a heavy loss in dead and wounded ; among the former was Captain de Veaux. The other corps came up one after the other ; and while the sixteen pieces of ordnance brought with them thundered against Garibaldi's artillery pointed at them from behind the walls of Mentana, the other Pontificals sur rounded the town. The French, who came upon the place at about half past three, did wonders with the Chassepot rifle, that day brought into service for the first time; and yet, at nightfall, the day was still undecided, and the night was spent by both sides in the open field. The next morning, while a reinforcing column was on its way from Rome under the orders of General Dumont, a few rounds of artillery, and a charge at the bayonet's point, determined the Garibaldini to surrender. They were utterly de moralized by the enormous losses of the night be fore, and also by Garibaldi having, as usual, run away when he found the tide against him. He was also accompanied by his son Menotti. At nine the town capitulated ; but the paribaldini were Still go numerous, that it was found necessary to let them depart in peace on laying down their arms, lest they should have created a dearth of pro visions as prisoners. They are supposed to have lost 400 or 500 killed, and wounded in proportion, and there are 1,600 prisoners. I must now send you, to compare with this ac count, some passages from a narrative of a Gari baldian combatant in the action, calling himself Carlo Cacciani, which appears in the Nazione. It corroborates the above account in all the main particulars, which is noteworthy, being from a writer of very different politics and calibre. • . . "In consequence of advices received from Florence, orders were given in the night that all our various columns should rendezvous at 11.30 next day on the road leading to Mentana. Accord ingly, at midday on the 3rd, the various columns were in motion for that place, with our three bat talions of Genoese Bersaglieri at their head. . . The commander of the battalion confided to me the charge of regulating the service of the van guard. . . . We had got within a kilometre and a half of the village without scent of an ene my. . . . I pursued my way boldly, therefore, and occupied every bit of rising ground on our passage. . . . But this security was not to last long ; for, having climbed a hillock somewhat higher than the others, I found myself the object of a volley of shot. I returned in something quicker than haste to the level road, and posted the best shots under my command in various positions calculated to obtain observation of the enemy's movements, and to offer resistance in case of attack ; but, in my doubt whether the volley had not been fired by mistake from some of our advanced posts, I determined to make one more investigation before I gave the alarm to the column. Accordingly, I sallied further:on in company with an officer of our company, and holding my revolver in my hand. Before we had advanced 200 metres, keeping our selves well under the cover afforded by the nature of the soil, we soon convinced ourselves that the enemy was advancing slowly upon us, protected by a line of Zouaves drawn out Bersaglieri fashion. We now lost no time in returning to our vanguard to acquaint the commander of our battalion with our discovery. I sent a guide on horseback to him in all haste, with injunctions to beg a rein forcement of two companiesto assist in holding the position committed to me, a most important one. But the said guide did more harm than good, for he first wore out his horse by tearing along at a furious gallop, and then contrived to get himself into such a state of agitation and excitement, that he filled all the:surrounding volunteers with panic, thinking some fearful reverse must have befallen us ; and the end of it was, he never made my request for reinforcements understood . at all." [Doubtless the said " guide " was some faithful peasant subject of the Pope, who was doing his little best to damage the invaders of his country.] " Finding it impossible to hold out with the small force at my disposal, I again sent to beg reinforce ment, but every man of the army had his hands full by that time. . . . Those who had good legs and stout arms cut themselves a passage through the ranks:of the enemy ; the rest fell upon the spot or were taken prisoners. Meantime the battle had assumed vaster proportions, and our men, in order not to be taken in flank, had to fall back on Men tans, but not without disputing every scrap of cover by the way. As battalion after battalion of the enemy came up, they at once threw themselves into line, and you may well believe that at every fresh arrival the struggle grew frightfully more fierce, till the ground was lost to view under the bodies of the dying and the dead. . . . I have nothing to say against the conduct of our leaders, for the greater number fell where the. danger was greatest. . . . But the losses we had suffered in killed and wounded, as well as in defections from the ranks, and a multitude of other causes, contributed to prostrate the strength and courage of the volunteers, and so hour:by hour their ardour went out, and by night all was lost. The retreat was not carried out in the best possible order, it must be confessed ; but by seven o'clock all the forces that could be called together had re-entered Monte Rotondo. At first it had been intended to enter into new measures for its defence ; but, by Garibaldi's express order this, was given up, and .the evacuation commenced next morning. Our losses are very great—l should calculate not less than 1,000, between killed, wounded, and prison ers.' On the Roman side nearly 250 men were put hors de combat, among them five Pontifical and four French officers. The large proportion which the Zouaves bear of this loss is to be explained by the impetuosity with which these brave but impru dent soldiers throw themselves upon the enemy without thinking of cover for themselves. There have been many instances of Christian courage which deserve to be put on record. Thus a Peruvian Zouave, Sevilla by name, who received five wounds, coolly made the sign of the cross on each, saying, 44 Viva Gesii ! viva Maria I" Another Zouave had, at the beginning of the battle, made a vow to eat nothing till he had communicated ; and as he could not receive communion till the next day, and that in the afternoon, he continued all that time cheerfully without food. A Roman trumpeter, who had his right hand shot through, continued through the action to hold the trumpet with the left. The wounded Pontificals and French have been brought into Rome, overflowing the military hos pital of San Spirito, and other hospitals also. Numbers of Romans sent their carriages out to fetch them, and have even taken them into their own houses to nurse. Amid all their pain the same spirit of cheerful devotion continues to prevail, and as one passes from one sufferer to another, the words one hears from each sound like the voices of the early mar tyrs of the faith rather than those of the nineteenth century soldiers ; the same breathings of enthu siastic love of God and ardent desire to be spent in His cause uttered in the various idioms of every Christian country. There lie side by side one from Nantes and one from Madrid, wounded by a splinter from the same shell. Neither will pro bably ever see his home again, or should we !not rather say they will both go together to their new true home. A young Swiss is next who knows no rest night or day but while some ministering hand drops the snow upon his wound, and as we are busied with him, his opposite companion, hearing our English name, writes his own on a slip of paper with his left hand, for he has a ball in his right elbow, and sends it across to us, begging us to let him have an English book tomorrow. He comes from a far:off colony. He is not at the worst yet. To-morrow he will have the fever, poor fellow, and will be in no condition to read; but he is so cheery now, you would think he had hardly a scratch. The Garibaldian wounded are also being attended to in convents by Italian and French surgeons. On Wednesday the victorious companies marched back into Rome. The hour of their arrival had been announced in the papers, and Rome accord ingly turned out to meet them at the gates. Rome has, of late, amid all these distractions, been look ing her loveliest ; a slight tramontana glazing her pure atmosphere, and bringing out every countless variety of tint of purples on the mountains, and madders on the ruins, and greens upon the grass and trees, each with a separate value, like a vast world all of jewels, and her own sun shining through their transparency, and surrounding them with a golden setting as it never shines out of Rome. Every one who has seen the country round Porta Pia on such a day can represent it to himself as it was on Wednesday, for it is a vision of beauty which cannot be forgotten; but the spirit-stirring scene which followed no one can imagine. A few more English have arrived since last week ; but I regretted there were so few of them to witness it, as such demonstrations can hardly occur many times in a lifetime. The following is the dry list of the order of march :—First, the staff of generals of the two armies, and the superior officers of the different corps, took their stand on the Piazza :di Termini to see the troops defile. Then marched past, by way of vanguard, a company of Zouaves, a divi sion of Roman Artillery, two battalions of Zouaves, a battalion of Carabinieri esteri, a battalion of the ,Roman Legion, a battery of Artillery, followed by THE SUN, LOINDr,iIV, SATURDAY EVENING, NOVEMBER 16, 1857. a company of Artillery, a division of "Sappers and Miners, and the baggage waggons, a. squadron of Gensdarmes on horseback, and a ;squadron of Dragoons. Then the French—a battali on of Chas seurs, a battery of Artillery, six battalions of all arms, and a long file of waggons brorught up the rear. The French looked little the worse for wear— fine soldierly regiments, who had doue their duty well, and would do it again anywhere —men so trained to every incident of warfare that a day or two's fighting seemed in no way to put them out. But not so with the Pontifical soldiers : except the Gensdarmes, of whom the same may be said as of the French, and perhaps the Dragoons and Artil lery, they are now learning, their lesson, and, though they have had no one misfortune, a hard lesson it is. They were no holiday troops or carpet soldiers, as their persons and accoutrments bore evident traces of the dreadful work they had un dergone. No sight could be more moving. Hardly, per hips, one man there who had taken up the soldier's life as a profession, of course not one forced into it by conscription, but all had gone into it in spite of their love of ease, in order to defend the sove reignty of a beloved ruler, or had come from the ends of the earth in defence of a sacred principle. Utterly unlike every other army, therefore, they. passed by an aggregate of heroes, each with an individual will, and that will one, because Catholic. How this struck one, as on and on, and still on they came, the very flower of the piety, devotion, and chivalry of our age ! And who could reflect on all this, and not be moved at the sight of the havoc which the hardships of war had done among them. How want of sleep and exposure had stained, and drawn, and distorted faces which were every one " somebody's darling," and which had every one evidently been brought up to a different sort of life. But such is the power of the human will, aided by the Divine; that it can give itself cheerfully even to such things as these. And thus strong, not in their own strength, they tramped along, weary and dusty as they were, with an elasticity and an energy as if each felt he were, " treading on the dragon." Warm and pleasantly on their ears fell the greeting of their fellow-men, and, perhaps, more pleasantly still fell the flowers, which, if it is not the fashion here to cheer noisily, it is the pretty custom for fair fingers to scatter on the head of an honoured processionist. And gracefully were those sweet tokens caught, to show beside the other trophies of the fight, the cacciatore's plume, the scarlet caps, the ramrod (the guns were brought up behind), the pistol or the knife each had taken from the enemy. One lad we noticed who had a small kitten he had probably saved from destruction, snugly coiled up on the top of his knapsack. It was a different sight on Monday night, when 1,000 of the prisoners were marched in. There was evidently no sort of sympathy-with them in the crowd, as they strutted or dragged themselves along. Numbers of them had the unmistakable bearing of men used to wear uniform. Some few swaggering young fellows were there, too, who had probably run away from home, to enjoy the license of a freebooter's career, and had thrown down their arms as soon as they smelt powder. And then there was a multitude of motley riffraff—little boys hardly so tall as a gun, and hang-dog, cut-throat looking ragamuffins, such as one does not often have a chance of seeing. It is no wonder that with such a set in their train they have made a savage deg& wherever they have gone. The church of Monte Rotondo is a mere wreck, the sacred vessels being found in the baggage of some of the prisoners. The railway line, too, had been torn up. Of our losses I have hardly time for many in dividual particulars. If I spoke of two devoted brothers of a French family last week, I may match them with two English brothers now—Wil frid and Julian Watts-Russell, two fine young men who left an easy position at home to join the Zouaves at the most anxious time. They fell into their duty with surprising rapidity, and shrank from none of its most arduous requirements ; but the friends of the elder one hardly know him now, so much has the toil altered him ; the younger one was shot through the head at Mentana. The body was embalmed and brought into Rome yesterday; many went to see it, almost as to that of a martyr. He had been known to make the resolution of say ing a Hail Mary whenever he fired for the poor soul his gun might send to eternity. He was scarcely seventeen, and he had been so skilfully treated by the French surgeon that his wound did not at all disfigure his handsome face. He looked just as a boy might look whose mother had but now arranged his wound and commended him to sleep. The religious offices of the Church were offered for him at the English College at half-past nine this morning. Mgr. Talbot and Mgr. Stonor, the Hon. and Rev. F. Ffrench, Padre Cardella, a number of Zouaves, and all the English in Rome were present. Father O'Callaghan (who, amid these stirring events, I forgot to tell you before, has succeeded Dr. Neve as Principal of the Eng lish College) said the Mass. Another I have heard of who fell the same day, also a simple soldier in the artillery, was Count Carlo Bernardini, a young man of good family on both sides of the house. He had been brought up at home, and with great care, and he had such a fancy for study, that it was thought he would one day become a great writer ; at the time of the Canonization of 1862, with a number of other young patricians, he entered the ranks of the army He distinguished himself particularly at Bagnorea and at Viterbo. Also on the day on which he lost his life, so noble had been his conduct, that his captain had called him out to applaud his bravery, and present him to his friends. Bernardini, de lighted with the praise of his officer, sprung to his horse, and flew back to his work, only to receive a fatal shot, one of the last that was fired. It is believed that Ricciotti Garibaldi is among the prisoners here, but he seems desirous to hide himself, and I believe he has not been identified for certain. Garibaldi had, it seems, got as far as Passo Correse, after the Monte Rotondo affair, with a knot of those who had run away with him, and had telegraphed to his friends to have a steamer ready in which he could escape to Caprera, when he found himself surrounded by a detachment of Bersaglieri and Carabinieri, who placed him under arrest. By the account of his own friends, in the Italia, he seems to have pleaded all manner of subterfuges and aliases for getting off—first that he was a Roman general ; then that he was an American subject; then that he was a deputy of the Italian Parliament, but all to no purpose. What the object of this second arrest is, remains to be seen ; but all Garibaldian and Italian troops too ar e said to have quitted the Roman soil now. The last movement of troops from here was in the direc tion of Tivoli. The various towns as they have become liberated from the invaders have immediately sent up ad dresses expressive of their devotion to Government. From Velletri.a deputation of notabilities of the place came up to present themselves to Cardinal Antonelli, and to request that they might have a garrison to keep out future incursions. And the people everywhere make no secret of their thank fulness at being again free. I cannot forbear sending you the following pas sage from the Nazione. It is one of the most shameless confessions possible of the way in which it has been sought to bring about this whole affair. I have often pointed it out, but it comes more forcibly from the side of those actually im plicated, and ought to carry conviction with it : " The movement on to the Pontifical territory was begun at the wrong end. . . . It was in Rome itself it ought to have begun. Money would not have been wanting with which to purchase men and arms. Then, with the smallest sprinkling of the Roman element, mixes with the imported multitude, it might have been given out, and would have been believed, that the insurrection was the work of the Romans themselves. . . . Instead of this, we have sown the Roman territory with our dead and wounded, and the Zouaves and rcatificalt) who were to have melted away at our approach, show no signs of giving way, and are confoundedly clever in their tactics." Cardinal .Roberti, Cardinal-Deacon Of the title of Santa Maria ad Martyres (Pantheon), died on Thursday morning, at his residence in the Con sulta. He was born at San Giusto in 1788, and was created cardinal in 1850. GOLD MINING IN CALIFORNIA. Colonel Buel, a gentleman well known in the mining States and Territories, will shortly arrive in Europe with every specimen of ore, and full in formation to open offices in the large cities, where complete intelligence of the most celebrated districts will be collected. Ile is deeply interested in the mines of Nevada, and was deputed to furnish infor mation at the Paris Exhibition of the nature of the mineral wealth of that country. The letter from Austin, Nevada, to the Wall-street Journal, which we publish, gives late intelligence of the progress of mining in that district of the State. No better proof could be afforded of the deplorable nature of the financial collapse which has lately crushed enter prise in Great Britain than the apathy with which such unusual opportunities for investment as those now opened in the mining districts of the Pacific States have been received. We believe a more splendid prospect of realising large returns on small expenditures has never before been offered than that now opening in these mines. Oa the first die covery of auriferous soil in California and Australia men acted on strong impulse, but in blind ignorance. Many profited largely and many fell victims to their own want of prudence. Since then gold and silver mining in these new countries has been reduced to a science, and where the metals actually exist in paying quantities the return is as sure as that from deposits of coal or mit, Among the mines offered to the British public is one termed the Lincoln Gold Company in Placer County, five miles from the town of Lincoln, which stands at the foot of the Sierra Nevada, about thirty miles from Sacramento. The county is one of extraordinary wealth, second indeed to none in California. The . gold is there obtained from a de composed slate, caused, as Mr. Attwood says, by eruptive rocks, of which small dykes are found tra• versing the deposits, and are rich in gold, besides containing copper, iron pyrites, and zinc blonde, and associated with the copper ore are small quantities of native silver. A writer in the San Francisco Mining and Scientific Press, on the formation, dis tribution, and age of igneous rocks, says : " Tho earlier stratified rocks seem to have derived their distinctive character from the igneous rocks erupted during the period of their formation. Thus, during the eruptive era of granite, gneiss was deposited ; during the erruption of feldspathic granite, clay slates and sandy shales formed, and during the eruptive era of the magnesian rocks, altered serpentine, greenstone, and hornblende slates were de posited. The vast deposits of quartz gravel hundreds of feet in thickness at the base of the Sierra Ne vada, and covering scores of square miles, and also those vast deposts flanking the suintnit, and ex tending from the Feather to the Merced rivers, a dis tance of two hundred miles, and the vast deposits of dis integrated quartz stained with the oxides of metals, which are now cemented into solid rock, may be satisfactorily accounted for on the hypothesis that metalliferous quartz, similar in composition with that found in veins, was once erupted in vast quantities. And if it be really the truth that ores were erupted in such enormous quantities, as these immense deposits would seem to indicate, it follows that placers are more widely distributed, and the ores of the useful metals enter more largely into the stratified rocks than has hitherto been supposed. As we further pursue this subject, we shall learn that such deposits of the ores of silver, lead, mercury, copper, and iron do exist." The discoveries each day as the miners tunnel through the lodes in rich districts show that it is almOst impossible to exaggerate the wealth of some of these localities. The latest news from Placer County tells of such a find :-- "Auburn Stars and Stripes, September 25th :—M'Gonigle and Co., in running a tunnel, run across a singular black formation, which, at the time, was rejected. On close in spection specimens of this rejected black stuff exhibited, to use a miner's expression, 'slathers' of gold. Investi gations that followed showed that the black stuff consti tuted a regular and well-defined lodge of gold-bearing sili. cats, which has been traced, up to the present time, a dis tance of 600 feet, and which, at the point where they aro now working, is fully seven feet in thickness. The course of this lodge or streak, from the point of discovery as far as traced, is about N. 65 deg. W. It is as easily worked as the softest slate, and after exposure to the air for a short time is as easily pulverised as dry clay. Large portions of it are richly studded with gold, and a considerable por tion will yield $1 per pound ! Several tons have already been taken out, and it is reported that it grows richer as they go down.q The Lincoln Gold Company works material of this soft nature ; and should it increase to anything like the wealth of gold developed in the mine above reported, the yield will many times exceed the cal culations on which the reports are grounded. The cost of working such material is 4s. per ton, and the returns of the actual working were nearly £2 per ton of ore treated. Placer County is a fine agricultural district, with a good climate, plenty of wood and water, and abundance of that best of Asiatic labour, the Chinese. Lincoln is a town 11 miles from Junction, which is 18 miles from Sacra mento. The California Central and Yuba Rail ways are complete to Marysville, from which line this mine is five miles distant. It possesses, there fore, admirable facilities for carriage, having a good road to the station at the town of Lincoln. Sacra mento is now connected by steam with San Fran cisco, distant 125 miles ; but the railway is nearly complete from the State capital to Valejo, when Lincoln may be reached front San Francisco in six hours. Bartlett and Chapman, in their " Investment Circular and Financial Record," say— "We have every confidence in these statements, and, believing that the company will give gratifying and rich returns to the proprietary, we recommend our friends to make early application for shares. The risk is certainly small and known, and the returns will probably be very good, because the calculations are based on a lower yield than we think will be realised, but the operations will certainly prove very remunerative. It is not our practice to recommend remote speOulations, and the present is the first case in which wo have advised our friends to take an interest in gold mining ; but the conditions which we have described place this enterprise on perfectly safe ground." The reports of the English engineer, Mr. T. Arthur Phillips, and Mr. M. Attwood are favour able in the highest degree. The latter observes : " I have not examined any mine in California of which I think more highly than that of the Harpending ; and I feel greater confidence in recommending its purchase than I did even in the case of the Eureka Mine, at Grass Valley, which was purchased on my recommendation, and has since yielded a net profit of £70,000 per annum." The term' on which this mine is offered to the public by the vendors are stated in tha prospectus, to which we refer our readers. la NEW YORK MARKETS. (From the Correspondent of the Anglo-American limes.) NEW YORK, Nov. 1. There is no change to report in the Money Market, which remains easy at 6 per cont. for choice names, with exceptions at 5 and 7 per cent. ; but second-class paper is difficult to dispose of. The failure of the Royal Bank of Liverpool, which was first notified as haVing liabilities of .£1,500,000, is now reported at £1,650,000, with assets con siderably below that sum, and consequently with little chance of resuspitation. The Commercial Bank of Canada has stopped with a paid-up capital of $4,000,000. They had blocked up their capital in railroads, particularly to the Detroit and Milwaukee, and the Great Western of Canada. Buchanan, Harris, and Co. owed a heavy balance to the bank, and their suspension had an injurious effect. Mr. King, of the Bank of Montreal, has been blamed for his action in the matter. The Montreal papers of the 30th ult. contain a statement signed by William Workman, President of the City Bank, Montreal ; J. G. Worts, J. P., Bank cf Toronto; and J. Woodside, cashier, Royal Canadian Bank, strongly commenting on the course taken by the Bank of Montreal. The respectable New York shipping house of Robert L. Taylor has suspended, with liabilities said to amount to $1,000,000. The Wa,shingtou Marine Insurance Company was ordered into liquidation, Oct. 26, with liabilities of $858,048, and assets $97,660! This concern was established in 1859, and it is now stated that it was never on a secure foundation, and would last year have collapsed, as it lost over 25 per cent. of its capital, had not the stockholders volunteered a loan-of $157,000. Southwick, Sheble, and Company, wool merchants, Philadelphia; Charles P. Bayard, a stockbroker, of the same city ; Fishouse, in Commerce street, BOston; a provisioner, named Michaels, of Chicago, who has bolted to Canada, leaving debts for $70,000, hare all failed. The proprietors of the Commercial Bank of Canada decided to resume business, if possible, by amalgamating with some other banking institution, apply ing to the Legielature for the necessary powers. Mews. Quigley Brothers, who suspended last January, have settled with their creditors, and been reinstated as mem hers of the New York Stock Exchange. The affairs of the Pacific Mail have excited much attention, and the stockholders are generally desirous both of investigating the manage ment and changing the officials. Between those who desire to effect this and the officials of the com pany a fight is proceeding. The opposition sent out a circular soliciting proxies, speaking pretty clearly of the management, as the following extract shows : " A large number of influential stockholders believe that the present management of the affairs of the company is very injudicious and extravagant, and that the welfare of the company and of the stockholders, demands a change of directors." They allude to the commission of 5 per cent. in gold on all freights earned by the company to Wells, Fargo, and Co. -to the brokerage of 5 per cent. to the firm chartering their coal vessels to the Pacific coast-to the salary of $25,000 in gold to the President, and several other items. A Marine Insurance Company, to be styled the Great Republic, of which B. C. Morris is proposed as President, is being successfully organised. Within a few months the Columbian, Neptune, Harmony, Washington, and Anchor Marine Insurance Companies have been dissolved, and the vacancies leave an opening for the new one. Gold has been falling, but to-day it is firmer, fluctuating between Hof to 141. The Government has commenced the large coin disbursements due as inte rest on the three first series of 5-20's. As on the and of the year $18,000,000 interest will also fall due, added to which $7,000,000 of the Mexican war loan has to be paid, the coin disbursements within two months will reach $50,000,000. Commissioner Rollins has decided that the deposit tickets used in gold operations aro not subject to a stamp-tax as checks or contracts. This decision is im portant to those who deal in gold. Silver is at 44 to 5} cents below gold ; Mexican dollars 102} to 103 in gold. Government stocks are firm, but there is no great amount of business transacted. State stocks aro also firm, and Tennessee in special demand; but railway stocks are dull. Mining stocks are also dull, and little business doing. Tho fall has been continuous, and has now reached a point that ought to bring in buyers. The most active and rising stocks are those of the petroleum companies,; which seem to be taken as sound and healthy investments and the following for the railroad and miscellaneous stocks:: New York Central 1121, Erie72l, Hudson 125}, Reading 971, Michigan, Southern, and Northern Indiana 781 Illinois Central 123}, Cleveland and Pittsburg 81/, North-west V}, North-Western Preferred 65}, Canton 44}, Rock Island 96}, Cleveland and Toledo 104}, Fort Wayne 94 Pacific Mail 1451, Quicksilver 181 Western Union Telegraph 331, Mariposa Preferred 15, Ohio and Mississippi Certificates 25, Boston Water Power —, Cumberland 25.

(From Messrs. Belding, Keith, and Co.'s Circular.) FRIDAY EVENING, Nov. 15. The market for United States Securities was steady at the close of last week, and improved till Wednesday, when a fall took place in Government Bonds, owing to the rise in the price of gold in New York. United States 5-20's of the 1864 issue, however, formed the exception, and rose 1 per cent.—viz.: to 68-70. 5-20's of 1862 open this morn ing at 701 1, or 1 per cent. lower than this day week. The same change has taken place in 1865'5, which are now quoted 68} to 691. The demand for 10-40 Bonds is in creasing, and oa Wednesday they touched 68. A fall of 1 per cent., however, afterwards took place, in sympathy with the other Government securities. Illinois Central and Erie Railway Shares continued to increase in value. They were last quoted 841 85 and 471 respectively, show ing an imp:ovement of 21 per cent. in the former, while the Erie Shares are firmer, without the same decided rise. Atlantic and Great Western Consolidated Mortgage Bonds have been stationary, and close at 19 20. rom E. F. Satterthwaite and Co.'s Weekly Circular, N0e.13.) Our advices from New York, per Persia, are to the 29th ult. The market for United States Government securities was steady, the only alteration of moment being an ad vance of nearly one per cent. on 5-20's of 1865, which had been in request on European account. State stocks and railroad bonds were more offered and were weak. Rail road shares exhibited but little fluctuation, but the ten dency was, if anything, to lower quotations. The principal feature was the decline in Philadelphia and Reading, Which, on the recent statements put forth by the com pany, had fallen three per cent. Gold in anticipation of payment of the 5-20 coupons had receded about two per cent. UNITED STATES BONDS. We have upon more than ono occasion drawn attention to the issue of United States Bonds called 10-40's, but as the precise nature of these securities does not appear to be generally understood, wo desire to give some further in formation on the subject. The loan which these bonds represents was issued by authority of an Act of Congress confirmed 3d March, 1864, the wording of which is very ex plicit, that the Secretary of the Treasury is empowered "to prepare and issue Common or Registered Bonds of the United States bearing dtte March 1, 1864, or any subsequent period, redeemable at the pleasure of the Government, after any period not less than five years, and payable at any period not more than forty years—in coin." In another section of the Act the rate of interest payable is limited to 5 per cent. per annum, also to be paid in gold, such in terest " to be exempt from taxation by or under any State or municipal authority." In the exercise of the discre tion accorded to him to the extent of $2,000,000, the Secretary emitted bonds having forty years to run, but re deemable after ten years, and according to the last official statement to Ist October there were outstanding bonds to the amount of $198,431,350. The notice of this issue was dated 21th March, 1864, and given in our Circular of the following 20th April. From the above extracts there can be no uncertainty as to their being, in all respects, both as to capital and in terest a specie obligaion, which will doubtl, ss be faithfully acknowledged by the United States Government. The Act authorising the issue of the two descriptions of 5-20 Bonds differs from the above in the one circum stance that no mention is made of repayment of the principal in gold ; but although this is not done, we have the reiterated assurance of no less than throe Socreta tries of the Treasury that the Government in this re spect viewed them in the same light as 10-40's. The latest occasion on which this declaration was made was on the 7th October last, by Mr. M'Culloch, in which he says—" I consider the faith of the Government pledged to pay the 5-20 Bonds when they are paid—in gold ;" so that without a special Act of Congress, we don't see how their position could be strengthened, notwith standing the attempt made by political agitators to induce the Government to resort to the dishonest expedient of paying them in currency. As to the relative value for investment of the three kinds of security, we give below the cost at present market price, and the rate of interest per annum which each will yield ; the two descriptions of 5-20's are identical in all respects, with the exception of the date of maturity, and assuming that the bonds will not be redeemed before then, the difference is so small that it is scarcely necessary to take it into consideration, though, for choice, we should consider those having the longer time to run preferable. The present price per thousand dollar Bond, alai the rate of interest derivable from them, is as under :- 5-20 ' 4 1862, say at 71, equal to £159 15s ; interest per annum a t 4s. per dollar, £l2, or 7.51. 5-20's, 1865, say at 691, equal ,to £156 7s. Gd. ; interest per annum at 4s. per dollar, £l2, or 7.67. 10-40's, 1904, say at 67, equal to £150155. ; inte rest per annum at 4s. per dollar, £lO, or 6.62. The interest on tho 10-40 Bonds is payable in March and September, and on the 5-20's in May and November. The suspension of telegraphic communication with NO York for two or three days during the past week sore' what interrupted the usual course of business in American Securities on the London market. For Government Bonds we have to record no change in prices from this day week, as purchases on lower quotations of gold have b:en well supplied by Bonds on hand. Illinois Central Shares have been in good demand, I nla close 83} to 81, an advance of nearly 2 p e r cent. T IIO present "settlement" has develop e d a "Bar" account in Erica, and as much as $1 per share is offered for the loan of them till the next account—they close 47 to I. Atlantic and Great Western Debentures and Consolidated Bonds are both lower, while the First Mortgage Bonds of the Ohio Section are in increased demand. (From Messrs. Bowles, Brevet, and Co.'s Circular.) Paris, Nov. 15, 1867. The increased firmness reported in our last circular ha g continued, and prices are generally well sustained.
