THE NAVY. Y es terday steam was got up in the new factory erectel at Chatham dockyard for preparing the iron work required in the construction of the Achilles, 60, under the direction of Mr. Baker, the chief en gineer, for the purpose of testing the new machi nery. The various machines, including those for punching, drilling, boring, planing, and otherwise preparing the large iron slabs, were all set in mo tion for the first time, when they were all found to vorkin a very satisfactory manner. Her Majesty's screw steam-frigate Bristol, con structed at Woolwich, is ordered to leave this morn ing for Sheerness, to be admitted into the steam re serve at that station. The Ordnance steam storeship Balaklava, laden with Armstrong shot and shell, and leaden bullets (about 400 tons), sailed this morning from Wool wich for Portsmouth. The Iris, 26, sailing frigate, Commodore W. Lo ring, C. 8., arrived at Spithead early yesterday morning from Australia and New Zealand, having sailed from Auckland on April 6th. She touched at St. Helena on June 7th. She left that island next day, as did also H.M. steamer Assaye, coming to England under canvas, with a portion of the Ennis killen Dragoons on board ; the Sirocco, hired troop ship, with part of the 24th Regiment on board, bound to Spithead ; and the ship George Kendall, also homeward bound. The Iris has experienced generally fine weather during the passage home, with the exception of a heavy gale on the 21st inst. In lat. 55 20 S., long 120 W., a large iceberg was passed, breaking rapidly up. A naval court-martial assembled yesterday on board H.M. ship Victory, in Portsmouth harbour, for the trial of Mr. James Hunter, late assist.-surg. of H.M. ship Illustrious, on the charges-Ist, of ab senting himself from duty without leave ; and, 2dly, of disobeying lawful commands communicated to him. The prisoner was acquitted on the first charge and found guilty on thesecond. Thecourt sentenced him to lose two years, and to be severely repri- manded. The whole of the batteries of Royal Artillery having been supplied with Armstrong guns, and the old guns returned to store at Woolwich, the Rifled Ordnance Department has been engaged for some months past in the exclusive manufacture of armaments for the fleet. A large number, princi pally 100-pounders, has been stacked under the o pen sheds along the shipping wharf in Woolwich Arsenal, in readiness for embarkation for arming the squadron at Portsmouth, Devonport, &c., and also for ships at Chatham. Guns for the Warrior are likewise ready for conveyance down the river on her quitting the Victoria Dock, on the 6th proximo, when she is expected to be moored at Greenhithe or Erith. The small double-action steam-engine, of 30-horse power, in course of manufacture in the dockyard, Woolwich, and intended for the internal use of the Warrior, as already stated in The Sun, having been completed, yesterday got up steam out side the factory to test her working capabilities, which were satisfactory. This engine will be fitted in the space between the ship's boilers and engines, and will be employed in cleansing out the vessel, blowing off the smoke after the fire of the broadside guns, pumping water, &c., and will be used in case of need as a fire engine, for which it is well adapted. Last evening the transport Sirocco, of Liverpool, with troops from the East Indies, anchored in Ply mouth Sound. The Akbar, sailing transport, sailed from St. Helen's Roads yesterday morning, with detachments of troops, for the Mauritius and Cey lon, calling in at Queenstown. At the trial trip made by the Black Prince on the Clyde yesterday the speed realised was nearly 15 knots. The following appointments were made yesterday at the Admiralty :—Lieut. H. St. J. de Robeck, to the Ajax ; Lieut. H. B. Phillimore, to the Fisgard, additional, for service in the Warrior; and A. W. Massy, naval cadet, to the St. Jean d'Acre. THE ARMY. On Tuesday Major-Gen. Lawrenson, Inspector- General of Cavalry, reviewed the troops of the 10th Hussars, now lying at Norwich barracks, under the command of Lieut.-Col. Baker. The review took place on Mousehold-heath, a fine open expanse near Norwich, well adapted for military movements, and a number of manoeuvres were executed in a style which called forth Major-Gen. Lawrenson's appro bation. Capts. Sir W. Hamilton and H. Lyle and Lieut, Bazalgette and Rice have arrived at Warley bar- racks with two batteries of the depot brigade Royal Artillery. The detachment was about 500 strong. Yesterday a draught of 150 non-commissioned officers and men of the Ist battalion of the sth Fusileers left Colchester Camp to join the head- quarters of the regiment, recently returned from India, and now doing duty at Portsmouth. The officers accompanying the draught were Capt. Chapman and Ensigns Hill and Graham. This day a similar detachment from the 37th Regiment will proceed to Plymouth and join the head-quar ters ; but in each case it is understood the depot will still remain quartered in Colchester Camp. The third depot brigade of the Royal Artillery, to be stationed at IVarley Barracks, now numbers about 700 men, a further detachment, consisting of two battalions with upwards of 500 men, having arrived from Woolwich on Monday. In consequence of the great want of duly qualified instructors for the officers and men of the Royal and Indian Engineers, in field-work operations and the scientific subjects taught in that branch of the service, it has been determined, with the approba tion of his • Royal Highness the Duke of Cambridge, to hold Competitive examination, in order that duly a que.lified non-commissioned officers may be appointed to the post of assistant instructors, in the conformity with regulations to that effect re cently issued. under the t h sauction of the Comman der-in-Chief. Up to av e e p t resent time only four assistant-instructors h head-quarters at Chatham, so appointed at the been is th e difficulty in procuring prop erl y qual ified men to fill those ap pointments. candidates will be re q uired to Possen a t h oro knowledge of g eometr y , trigonometr y , ilh military g drawing, the higher ranches of arithmetic, and th e c onstruction of field works. The examinatio ns w i ll take place at the various m ilitary stations in th e presence of an officer specially appointed for that purpose, and any non-commiss ioned officer will be eligible to compete. Fifty non-commissioned officers an d ben of the Royal Indian Engineers, who have compl e ted their course of instruction in sapping and mining, and other engineering operations, at the Royal Engineer establishment, Chatham, will embark at Gravesend this morning on board the Windsor Castle, 1,23 0 tons, Capt. W. B. Pryce, belonging to Messrs. Green, for Bombay. Instructions were yesterday issued at Woolwich by Gen. Sir Richard Dacres, by order of the Horse Guards, to hold the 3d Brigade Royal Artillery in readiness to embark at Gravesend on the 6th pros. for the Mediterranean. The brigade, which con sists of eight batteries of about 130 strength each, will go out in two divisions—the first division, in command of Lieut.-Col. Maclean, for Malta , and the second division, in command of Brevet-Colonel Wright, for Corfu. The demolition of the Halfmoon and Cavalier batteries at the entrance to the river Medway, which originally mounted conjointly 28 8-inch Ms, each of 65cwt., was commenced yesterday, in order th at preparations may be made for the erec tion of the new line of fortifications which are to be pl aced on part of the coast. The powerful casemated batterya ordered to be constructed at Gar rison-point, f or te security of the important naval establishments a n d Sheer ness, will be erecteda ou rsena''s at Chatham and th e site of the old works now being demolished , and mount when com pleted the heaviest arniarneil carried by any similar line of fortifications in the'U.nited Kingdom, con sisting of the 100- pounder A rms:r o g unslo-inch, and. 63-pounders on the bast Im„t g tier ; 'with 8-inch and 12-pounders, each of 6 6cwt., mounted en bar bette. By the terms of the' contract the whole of the cc mcrete foundations for 'these colossal forts are to be completed by Janu xry next. The indented l ines which lot m a contini Lion of the defences to the east of the Medway, and which are connecte, by a loop-holed musketry wail with the centre and No. 1 bastions, mounting 68-pounders and. 10-inch guns, are not to be interfered with at present, or until considerable progress has been made in the erection of the new casemated fort at G-arrison point." The foundations for the line of casemated batteries to be erected on the north side of the en trance of the Medway, abutting on the Isle of Grain, are being forwarded with all despatch, un der the superintendence of Lieut. F. G. Oldham, from the office of the Commanding Royal Engineer, who has taken up his temporary residence on. the island while the works are in progress. MIDLAND COUNTIES VOLUNTEER REVIEW. A grand review of Volunteers belonging to the midland counties was held yesterday, at Warwick, by H.R.H. the Duke of Cambridge. Inhabitants of the metropolis are so accustomed to Volunteer dis plays, although the second anniversary of the move ment was but recently celebrated, that the fact of 9,000 or 10,000 men assembling on a particular occasion might lose some of its interest before the rival attractions of " an ascent by Blondin." But in the midland counties, and especially in Warwick, the case is different. Not merely do rural corps feel that they have been deprived of a portion of that fame to which their patriotic efforts entitle them by the superior opportunities of display enjoyed by re giments in the capital,but these county gatherings, few and far between, are the only m eans wh i ch country corps possess of judging rightly of their own progress and deficiencies by comparison with what has been achieved in the same time by their ne i g hbours. To this the fact mus t b e a dd e d th a t, w hile the military spirit always beat high in War wick, a military display upon a large scale of late years is a novel sight. Under these circumstances it is not matter for sur prise that a project for bringing together in the old county town many regiments contributed to the national force by the midland counties should have been received with eagerness, and preparation on a great scale made to render the display worthy to rank with those at Brighton, Wimbledon, and else- where. Invitations were issued far and wide, and were so generally responded to that, had all the promises from outlying corps been acted upon, the - - - - representatives of the midland counties would have been but the nucleus of the mass. It was also sup. posed at one time that some of the corps wouldhave bivouacked in Warwick for a couple of days, and marquees were prepared with that object ; but the negotiation broke down, partly owing to the natural unwillingness even of Volunteers to expose them , selves to the present broken weather under canvas and partly, also, as is stated, from the inability of commanding officers to induce the railway corn panies to extend the limit for which tickets are issued. The inhabitants of Warwick spared no exertions to add to the success of the gathering. The site chosen for the display was the racecourse, near the town—a piece of ground admirably situ ated for county meetings and for all the purposes of sightseeing, but scarcely adequate to the accom modation of a force approaching 10,000 men. In shape an irregular oval, towards the end nearest the town it rises till it attains an elevation which shuts out the fields beyond from view, but near the stand house and over the remainder of area the surface is tolerably level. A hedge which would have inter fered with the movements was grubbed up regard less of the protests and vested rights of Commoners. The balcony and basement of the Grand Stand were appropriated to the guests of the Lord-Lieutenant of the county, Lord Leigh, of the Earl of Warwick, and to the county magnates generally. The roof was set apart for the deputy-lieutenants and magistrates; and to the right and left of the standhouse special galleries were added for the accommodation of 6,000 spectators, in addition to stands erected by private persons, which it was calculated might hold 4,000 more. The railways leading to the town were gorged with traffic, and the ordinary system of the Rugby, Leamington, and Coventry line was set aside for the occasion that its resources might be devoted exclusively to the excursion trains. The regiments began to reach Warwick shortly after 11 o'clock, and the arrangements made for their reception were so simple and complete that mistake was well nigh out of the question. Close to the railway and upon a gently rising hill opposite the station is an old Elizabethan farmhouse called the "Priory," the grounds sloping down from which were assigned as the mustering place for three of the brigades. The falling rain and still more insinu ating damp of the grass would have made such quarters less desirable than the road, were it not that the refreshments intended for the different corps before marching on to the race-course were here laid out under separate marquees. The 4th Brigade assembled in the Market-place and managed to dine under the shelter afforded by the Museum. Shortly before 2 o'clock the regiments began to set themselves in motion for the Review ground. The order of the day when completed was as follows—To the extreme right, the Duke of Manchester's corps of Mounted Volunteers, in three troops, numbering in the aggregate 120. Next, the Gloucestershire and Shropshire artillery, whose numbers nearly doubled the preliminary estimate furnished to the Horse Guards, being close upon 400 strong. With regard to the remaining brigades the original calculations proved in the main to be accu rate, and they were thus distributed : First brigade —The Ist Warwickshire (Birmingham) battalion, 800 strong ; the 2d Warwickshire, 500 ; the 2d South Middlesex, with a company of the 26th Mid dlesex, 400 ; and the Ist Oxfordshire, 400 ; total, 2,000 ; ccmmanded by Lieut.-Col. the Hon. G. C. Scott, Capt. Wolridge (Ist Worcestershire) acting as Major ofßrigade. Second Brigade—lst,2d, 3d, and 4th battalions Staffordshire, numbering 2,800; Lieutenant-Col. Bullen commanding; Melo'. of Bri gade, Captain Longstaff (2d Lincolnshire).—Third Brigade—Northampton and Nottingham (East Retford), 437; Gloucester and Buckingham, 523; Bristol, 540 ; and Nottingham (Robin Hood's) 600 —total, 2,100; Lieut.-Colonel Bush (Ist Bristol) commanding ; Major of Brigade, Major Kennedy (Cheltenham). —Fourth Brigade—Leicester, 550 ; Shropshire (Shrewsbury), 550; Worcestershire (Hagley and Worcester), 600—total, 1,700 ; Lieut.- Colonel Vernon (4th Staffordshire) commanding; Major of Brigade, Major Locke (2d Shropshire). These figures would show in round numbers that a force of nearly 9,300 men was present. It will be observed that all officers in command of bri gades, without exception, were Volunteers. Major Dick, the Assistant-Inspector of the district, con trolled and superintended the arrangements, and to his exertions, in a great degree, the suc cess of the display was owing. But one con tretemps occurred. The Duke of Cambridge, with his usual punctuality, reached the ground at three o'clock, and it was not till ten minutes afterwards that one of the Shropshire corps made its appear ance. It then took up its position, but his Royal Highness the Commander-in-Chief had previously passed down the line and been received with a ge nere.l salute. And with regard to this ceremony a andsuggestion is a noble may be offered. The National Anthem the Duke fof spirit-stirring melody, and the ear of tised to Cambridgeobject to is, doubtless, too well prac i3Ct its performance in any time or after band No. 4 has struck up any key. as the procession down the ranks, band ea,eor finishing their several masters 1,2, and 3 i n ° : i e s a t ta tax be greater ing, s o o r u t ght also to bear versions, though the , the har inurebion change the air, m any certainly is not.

Next marched_ mounted corps of the Duke of Manchester ad theShrewsbury artillery , an not merely for their deserts, one from Bristol and onefrombutin acknowledg mentto t of the goodwill which induced them to under take a fatiguing journey to co nt ribu te cess of the Midland Counties Review, the he suc- y were warmly cheered by the spectators. The corps in which the greatest interest naturally centred led the van of the Ist Infantry Br i g ade- The advance of the Ist battalion of Warwick Rifles, under command of Lieut.-Col. Mason, was slower than the rate to which the movements of metropo litan Volunteers have accustomed the eye, and it certainly did not attain Col. M'Murdo's favourite rate of " 108 paces a minute • " but the step was well marked, firm, and united, and the bearing of the men erect and soldierly. The Voiuntcers of the " Midland Counties " suffered no disparagement at their hands, but, on the contrary, a very plain hint was given to their Middlesex friends that it will not do for Londoners, if they wish to lead, to slacken their exertions. The 2d Warwickshire is a corps, to some extent, Of newer formation, and con sequently could not be expected in all points to equal itselder brother ; it contained some companies whose appearance and discipline was highly credit able, but there were exceptional cases, and this re mark applies to nearly all the corps from rural districts—in which the standard of merit was by no means equally high. As the battalion was pecu liarly local in its character, however, it was greeted, THE SEIN,IAJONDON, THURSDAY EVENING, JULY 25, 1861._ ~~ if possible, with greater favour than its predeces sor Next, in point of precedence, came a con tingent of the 2d South Middlesex Lord Ranelagh's well-known regiment, the desire for whose presence on occasions of this kind has certainly suffered no diminution since the great success of one of its members in the Wimbledon contest. They marched past the Commander-in-Chief in perfect line, with a swift, crisp step, and the precision of their movements was rendered more conspicuous from the fact of their being nearly the only gaitered corps upon the ground. One entire brigade com posed of Volunteers from Stafford, with a bluish slate coloured uniform, having experienced a flatter ing reception ; the attention of the sp ec t a t ors was next fixed upon the Bristol corps, in whi c h marc h e d Mr. Gibbs and Mr. Bingham, the former the winner of the Rifle Derby, and the latter next in point of merit to Mr. Jopling, for the Queen's prize. The appearance and efficiency of the corps were such as might have been anticipated f rom the representa tives which it sent forward ; but that from Notting ham, which . marched in the sa m e b r igade, com pletely eclipsed the others, and will take rank henceforward, if it has not already done so, as one of the best and most formidable units in the Volun teer army of England. The Leicester, Shropshire, and Worcester corps upheld the fame of their re spective counties, and, the marching past having concluded, the original line was re-formed, and the manoeuvres in the programme were about to be pro ceeded with under cheering prospects of improve ment in the weather. But at this point the British public executed a manoeuvre of its own, completely outflanking the Leicestershire Yeomanry, to whom the duty of keeping the ground was intrusted, and pushed its advantage till it penetrated be tween the squares which the Volunteers were engaged in forming. But there were too able tacticians among the brilliant Staff by whom the Duke was surrounded to permit this forward movement to be attended with any permanent results. The public soon found themselves sur rounded, cut off from their supports, and vari ously discomfited, so that they were glad to beat a retreat, and submit to be watched again .by vedettes of Yeomanry Cavalry. The Warwickshire Volunteers were then thrown out as skirmishers, and, under cover of their fire, the whole line retired in a direct echellon of battalions, halted, formed battalion squares on the leading companies of bat talions, and prepared for cavalry. File firing commenced from the right and left face, after which the kneeling ranks fired a volley. The troops sub sequently re-formed columns, with skirmishers firing, re-formed lines of contiguous columns on a centre battalion, fired in line, advanced, and fired again in line, with other movements, in addition to those contemplated in the official programme. The firing at first was somewhat tardy and un steady, but before the evolutions concluded some startling volleys were delivered by the corps, which echoed like angry peals of thunder through the town. At the close of the proceedings the mounted officers were called forward and briefly addressed by the Duke of Cambridge, who, on leaving the ground, was saluted with a hearty cheer from the whole of the troops, which was echoed with good will by the spectators. During the latter portion of the afternoon the rain bleared off, and the lookers-on derived much enjoyment from the scene. It would be idle to attempt to give a list of names where the assembly was to be reckoned by thousands, and where the spectators in uniform seemed almost to equal in number the Volunteers under arms. As far as the eye could reach it rested upon a gay and goodly company, and but one long and empty range of seats—vacantly glaring like the skeleton at a feast—showed where severe weather or high prices had exercised a prohibitory influence. Prior to the review, the Earl of Warwick threw open his Castle and grounds to all Volunteers in uniform, the liberality of this act being enhanced by the fact that in the modernized portions of the building a very numerous and distin guished party of guests is staying. The opportunity thus afforded was improved by nearly all who had the good fortune to reach Warwick in sufficient time, as a natural anxiety was felt to make acquaint ance with the interior of an edifice which forms one of the few remaining links, spared by the fury of the civil wars, to connect us with that baronial age, of which an Earl of Warwick was the last and greatest ornament. STATE OF NAPLES. A letter from Naples, dated July 17, says :—lt will, I know, be denied, nevertheless I have no hesi tation in saying, that the feeling in Southern Italy towards the central Government is increasingly hostile. I have many means of feeling the popular pulse and know pretty well how it beats, and I re peat that the malady, if not of actual disloyalty, at all events of diappointmcnt, hesita- tion, increases and I believe that if the plebiscite were again to be taken, and taken fairly, it would not be favourable to the Government of Victor Em- manuel. I am fully aware of the responsibility I incur in giving expression to such an opinion, never theless I am confident it is true; and if it be the fact as I state it the public weal requires that it should be made known. My object in giving pub licity to such an opinion is, of course, very far from a wish to see that wretched Government restored which has made the people what they are, but to lead to a minuter investigation of the causes which have led to so deplorable a result as that of which I complain. There is too much reason to believe that the central Government has been living on the capi tal it has already acquired in the glorious reputa tion for loyalty which Victor Emmanuel un- doubtedly possesses—on good intentions and grand aspirations, for beyond promises and decrees very little has as yet been done for the South of Italy, and socially speaking it is in a much worse state now than it was a year ago. Error after error has been committed, and for some time even personal security has been without those guarantees which are the indications of a strong and vigilant Govern ment. I was yesterday in company with some very sincere Liberals who had just been visited by some Calabrese. The latter had been com plaining of the dangers to which they were ex posed in their province ; brigandage was rapidly on the increase, and provisional Governments, in the name of the Bourbons, were formed in several places. They had received letters that morning, and I know that they were taken to General Cialdini for his perusal. It was proposed in my hearing to establish provisional Governments in the name of the Liberals for self-defence, since the Government had appeared to leave everything in abandonment, a proposition, by the by, most dangerous in prin ciple, and not at all likely to be carried out ; but the very discussion of such a project showed distrust and disappointment and a state of feeling little as suring for the peace and unity of the country. I was interested, too, in meeting a gentleman from Avel lino, who as one of the National Guard had done good service against the reactionists. I congratula ted him on the restored tranquillity of his district, and received for a reply that there was still a very uneasy feeling. "But two bands," I observed, " according to the Official Journal, have just sur- six. rendered at discretion." 4. They were only a few canaglia of the neighbourhood who had joined the bands, and who, being, now without the means of subsistence, had given themselves up. As for the bands themselves, they had been neither cut up nor dispersed, but had retired on the advance of the troops and had got clear off." I may have been deceived, but such is the intelligence which I received from persons who had come from the dis tricts which had been so cruelly harassed. He con firmed the fact to which I alluded in my letter of last Sunday, that one house had been burnt with 80 persons in it, Liberals who were fighting in defence of their country. Now, I have good reason for asserting that in the month of April last the state of the province was laid before Cavaliere Nigra, and arms were demanded for the National Guard. After a month's silence the urgency of the case was admitted, and an order given to send the arms, but the order was never executed, and the neighbourhood was consequently reduced to a kind of shambles about ten days since. These are facts which cannot be denied, and they produce the worst effects in the minds of those to whom the Government must in an especial manner look for support. The frequent changes, too, which have taken place in the rulers of the South of Italy ; the trials of different systems, the issuing of orders and their speedy reversal, have created for the Go vernment a character for weakness and vacillation. Pallavicini, Farini, Prince Carignano, San Martino, and even Cialdini have glided before the public eye like so many phantoms without remaining suffi ciently long to leave any impression behind. Either they will be chosen in the first instance, or they will be removed with imprudent haste, but in the per sonnel, as well as in many of the changes proposed, an ignorance has been displayed of the genius of the people as well as of the necessities of the coun try. The consequence is that a very vain and impracticable people have been disappointed and have become distrustful. Cialdini is now here as Lieutenant-Governor, with Count Pinelli as his adlatus, for the manage ment of the civil administration of the country. I know nothing of Count Pinelli, but it has produced a disagreeable impression that he is only remem bered as having been the Secretary of the Duchess of Perna. He may be an excellent choice, but time alone can show it ; meantime his former connexions are much criticised. Considerable efforts are being made to organise the corps francs, or rather to mobilise the National Geards, and their ranks have been increased, I hear, by the enrolment of many of the Garibaldini, who have been hang ing about without employment, and in a state of great destitution. The Offidal Journal of last night informs us that 30 of the disbanded soldiers had been arrested near Pizzo, and that the brigands in the neighbourhood of San Nicola dell' Alto had been repulsed, thus liberating the communes of Strongoli and Casabina. Order, too, had been restored in Cotrone, Savelli, Bone, and Spinelli. The details I do not know, but the restoration of order has been a phrase in common use for some time. The Exmouth, Capt. Paynter, made her appear ance in Castellamare yesterday morning, and put to sea almost immediately for another short cruise until Saturday next, when she will return. I cannot close this letter without again adverting , to the topics which I introduced at the beginning. At present Naples is an embarrassment for Italy, and when a struggle comes, as come it will for the rest of the peninsula, Naples will bib something worse than a dead weight, unless very material changes for the better take place. Ido not believe it to be the wish or the policy of those who direct the reaction, whether in Rome, Vienna, or else where, to promote anything like general action. All that they care for is to irritate and make the tepid and the unreasoning Liberals look about and exclaim, " What have we gained ?" And hitherto the policy has worked well for them. It is most unwise to consider that,Southern Italy, by a kind of natural attraction and cohesion, is ready to fall into the general mass ; the principle of repulsion rather prevails, and it must be shown to the Neapolitans, by prompt and wise action, that everything is to be gained by a compact union with the rest of Italy. As yet the majority are not persuaded of this. I send you an Order of the Day, published by Cialdini, and which at this moment will have a certain interest : Soldiers,--The Government of the King has been pleased to confide to me the command of this Gth Corps, the fatigues, the services, and self denial of which I have long applauded. lam rejoiced to unite my labours with yours, and I hope that we shall succeed in restoring calm to . this most beautiful part of Italy, and to purge it of the bands of assassins which infest it; and we shall succeed by associating with us the popular and liberal element of the country, a support which will not fail us, because confidently asked for and gratefully accepted by me. Yon know that difficulties do not alarm me, and that energy does not fail me. I know of what valour and constancy you are capable. To arms, then, with full confidence ! Fortune smiles on those who fight for their country and their liberty.

There have for some time been bodies of men here who, even in the city, have visited persons and demanded sums of money with threats. The object alleged was political and much money has been extorted in this way. It was only last week that some of these fellows went to a gentle man in Naples and demanded 2,000 ducats. AS' fecting compliance, he went into an inner room, and returned immediately with two revolvers, and, threatening to shoot the first who moved, he called for the National Guard and arrested them. One of these men, who has a shop near the To ledo, was arrested by the Commissioner of Police, under orders from Spaventa, a few days since. The brother of the man laid in wait for the Com missioner, and yesterday, at half-past five o'clock in the afternoon, in one of the most frequented parts of the city, struck him behind the ear with a knife. The poor fellow died a few minutes after he had been taken to the hospital. The women in the street shrieked, but no at tempt was made to arrest the man, and it was not until this morning that the police had hold of him. This assassination has excited much indignation, for the victim was a man much esteemed—an exile for 12 years ; he was in the service of Garibaldi, to whom he must be known, and now he has fallen by the knife. Any one who visited the Hospital of the Pellegrini yesterday would have seen the bodies of four murdered men, but I am told that there were These facts may be pooh-poohed, and such cases, I may be told, occur in London continually; but I have had to chronicle such facts for many months, and for the city of Naples only, while justice has faltered in its duty, and mildness and conciliation have been the order of the day. It is no longer liberty they cry, but security for person and pro perty. Of the former there is enough and to spare ; but of what value is it when brigandage harasses the country districts, and the knife of the assassin is ever ready to strike in the city ? COURT OF ALDERMEN. A Court of Aldermen of the City of London was holden on Tuesday, at Guildhall. The Right Hon. the Lord Mayor presided. STATE OF TILE CITY GAOLS. Mr. Alderman and Sheriff ABISISS brought up a report of the number of prisoners in the different gao!s within the City jurisdiction, by which it ap• peared that there are at present confined in New gate 59 prisoners, in Whitecross-street 225, and at Holloway 319. CRIMINALS IN FOREIGN COUNTRIES. The Town Clerk read a letter from Mr. Wad dington, the Under Secretary of the Home-office, calling the attention of the City magistrates to the fact that several instances had recently occurred in which police officers, of their own accord, had ap plied to diplomatic agents of this country and con suls, in foreign countries, for their assistance to pro cure the apprehension of fugitive criminals from this country, and that the proceeding had been found to be productive of great inconvenience. The Court was therefore informed that in future no such application would receive any attention by the con suls or other diplomatic agents of this country in foreign dominions, unless an application was previ ously made to the Secretary of State for the Home Department, and received his sanction. Mr. Alderman COPELAND said that he was per sonally acquainted with many cases in which re monstrance had been made by foreign Governments to this country in reference to the unauthorised pro ceedings of police officers who were desirous of ap. prehending criminals who had fled from this coun try, and it was high time that such proceedings should be put a stop to. He therefore moved that the letter of Mr. Waddington should be referred to the Commissioner of the City Police, with a view to his giving strict directions to his officers that they should not for the future take any steps in such proceedings without first applying to the Home Secretary, and obtaining his authority. The motion was carried. SHERIFFS' BONDS. The Sheriffs Elect—George Joseph Cockerell, Esq., and William ilolme Twentyman, Esq., eztered into the usual bonds for the due performance of their office. THE METROPOLITAN GAS ACT. The Remembrancer reported to the Cour; that a bill called the Metropolitan Gas Act Am 3 ndrnent Bill was under the consideration of Parliament. The subject was referred to the General Purposes Committee. CITY BROKERS. Mr. Alex. APRosty was sworn a broker of the city of London; Mr. Chas. Young and Mr. Rowland Neale Dalton were admitted brokers r and Mr. 1). Hazard and Mr. J. Padmore were discharged from the cffice of brokers. Mr. Alderman and Sheriff Abbiss presented a petition from Mr. Alfred Skene, late a broker of the city of London, praying to be admitted to the same office, from which he had been discharged by the Court. The circumstances under which this application was made to the Court were somewhat peculiar. It will be remembered that in 1858 Mr. Skene, who at that time carried on extensive business, iu part nership with a person named Archibald Freeman, as colonial brokers in the Ci!y, was tried at the Central Criminal Court with ,iis partner, under the Fraudulent Bailee Act, for misappropriating a war rant for a cargo of timber that had been entrusted to them by Messrs. Cavan and Co. to sell. It ap peared that a sum of money had been borrowed from the City Bank upon the security of this war rant, and the defence that was set up by the pre sent petitioner was thEt the transaction had been entirely carried out lly his partner without his Both the knowledge, and that he merely sanctioned it after it t had been completed upon his positive represen• on that arrangenents had been made to imme diately withdraw the warrant, and that the advance had only b een o b ta i ne d for a , temporary purpose. t i3ro b a edefendtnts were convicted, but the Lord Baron, who tried the cas e , res e r ved a point of law, which w e ge present j a :d ultimately taken i n to c onsideration by 14 of th e five s of wh om it a pp eare d, a nd among th em t h c e o nt vi Lord conviction was b a d ; b u t th e other nine being of opinion that t o h f e na contraryjuompemnit d on, the defen dantsfs d o entenee were brought up for judg io be imprisoned and kept to hard labour It appeared by the petition that after the s r en a t Y e e n a ce r. a memorial was add ressed t o the Secretary of Stat e , signed by a great number of highly respectable City firms, and among them the prosecutors of he in praying for a reversal of the sen tence, of which was, that the petitioners t d t i h c e the - indictment , eff rn ee t t , were ordered to be discharged, and he prayed that, under these circumstances, he might be re instated in his office of broker, from which he was, of course, dismissed immediately upon conviction. Mr. Alderman and Sheriff ABBISS said he had read the petition and all the documents accompany ing it, with great attention, and he felt calle d u p on to state that they satisfied him that the prayer of the petition ought to be complied with. He should, therefore, move that the subject be referred to the General Purposes Committee for them to examine and report to the Court. The motion was agreed to, and the Court shortly afterwards adjourned. CONDITION OF RUSSIA. The following letter from St. Petersburg of the 18th:inst. gives a very unfavourable description of the Russian empire ; " Far from improving, the internal state of the country is visibly becoming worse. All classes of society have arrived at such a state of irritation that an explosion is imminent. The great landed pro prietors do not conceal their rage. They complain of being plundered, and addresses of adhesion are sent from all parts of our vast empire to the Jockey Club at Moscow, the members of which had the sad courage to swear in corpore that the emancipation of the serfs should not take place according to the terms proposed by the Government. It is evident that this resolution will infallibly produce an intes tine struggle which will degenerate into a war of extermination. Four years since when Alexander 11. conceived the idea of emancipating the serfs he went to Moscow to solicit the aid of the nobility of that capital to carry out his humane plan. He said to them, "The state of slavery in which the peasants are kept is incompatible with the spirit of the age. Assist me in the difficult task of emancipating the serfs. Let us take the initiative.' This was the language employed by the Emperor when he ad dressed the nobility of Moscow, assembled in the palance of the Kremlin. It was unfortunate and ill-timed language. As autocrat he had no need to solicit the consent of his subjects. A stroke of his pen would have been sufficient to carry the Imperial plan into execution. By declaring that he would remain with the nobility until the people should take the initiative in their emancipation he osten sibly admitted the right of the people to express their will. The autocrat bowed his head before democracy. " It is easy to comprehend that in the face of the ill-will of the nobility the Emperor's words became more deeply engraven in the memory of every pea sant. The nobility were thus held forth to the hatred of the people. Thence have arisen the bar barous massacres which have spread terror among the nobility living on their lands. Thence these risings en masse of the peasants and the subsequent military executions of which we hear every day, and of which it is difficult to foretell the end. " Under the ancient system of slavery the serf was the absolute property of his lord. The serf possessed, and could possess, nothing of his own. It happened, however, that some serfs, authorised by their lords, quitted their villages, and by the pay ments of an annual tribute were permitted to settle in a town and to follow a trade. It frequently hap pened that these serfs by their economy and industry acquired large fortunes, but the law prevented them from possessing any property in their own name. They asked permission of their lords to purchase landed property in their names. Russia possesses thousands of serfs so circumstanced who possess mag nificent palaces and lands in the name of their lords. Since the proclamation of the act of emancipation, in credible as the fact mayappear, more than 2,000 law suits have been commenced by former peasants, now landed proprietors, against their former lords who dis pute their right to these properties. One noble man, the possessor of 21,000 peasants, has nearly 100 such actions to defend before the Senate. I conclude my letter by announcing the departure for Baden of the Grand Duke Constantine, deputed , by the Emperor to congratulate his august uncle, the King of Prussia, on his escape from the assassin Becker." WONDERFUL RESCUE 01 THREE MEN. A shocking occurrence was recorded in our columns a few days ago of a number of miners being buried alive in a pit at Kelvinside, near Glasgow. In the course of mining operations an old working was broken into on Tuesday last, which contained such a quantity of water that the mine was completely flooded, and three or four of the men drowned at the moment. In the belief, however, that some of the poor fellows might pos sibly be still alive, every effort was made to draw the water from the shaft. This operation was con tinued up to Sunday last, when success crowned the labour, and three of the remaining men were delivered from a living tomb where they had been immured for nearly six dismal days and nights. The three men had not been in the pit more than five minutes when the accident occurred ; but, strange to say,Tthey did not discover it for several hours. They continued to work away unconscious of the peril of their position, until one of them went for a piece of bread and butter which he had taken down with him, when he saw what had occurred. He returned in alarm, and communicated the terri ble fact to his companions, and the three men pro ceeded down the eloping side to the edge of the water, which had been forcing its way into the upper working. The extent of the calamity then burst upon them in full force. They returned and proceeded along the passage till they had again reached the level part of its course, and went down the opposite slope. The water was forcing its way up that side also—a putrid, stinking flood that made them almost recoil. Our readers may picture to them selves the terrible despair of the poor fellows when they found themselves thus walled in between the two floods 'forty fathoms below the surface of the earth. When they had recovered from their first shock of consternation, they began to watch the water, which they were able to do for about two days by the aid of their lamps. They had about two days' oil with them, and thus managed in some measure to compute the time. At first they thought they could not exist beyond a few hours. They kneeled down, and, in the anticipation of cer tain death, commended themselves to their Maker. For the two days during which their oil lasted they watched the water closely and eagerly; onward came the putrid mass with awful certainty and rapidity. Hope the poor fellows had none. The three slices of bread which one of them had taken down with him had been divided among them, and a little well of pure water, which was fortunately in the workings, furnished the means of quenching their thirst. They did not anticipate death by starvation, but the alternative seemed inevitable, that they would either be drowned or die by suffo cation in exhausted air. Strange to say, with the latter dread upon them, they kept their lamps burn ing as long as they would burn. We dare say it was some consolation to them to see each other as long as possible. The progress of the water, which seemed for two days to have been marching steadily on to engulf them, became gradually slower. At last the flood paused. What were they to make of this ? Was it a ground of hope? They did not know. With anew excitement theywatched the water again. It seemed to be retiring. At first the diminution was scarcely perceptible ; then the water retired au inch or two only, but still it was retiring. They began to hope after hope seemed to have deserted them. The water still r e tir e d, andthey knew from that tune exertions were being made to save them. They did not hear the operations until what they understood to be Saturday morning. When their light failed them the men placed a stone at the edge of the water, and after watching the rate at which the water was diminishing for, as they thought, several hours, calculated that they would be re lieved on the Sunday morning. The water seemed to them to fall at the rate of a foot per hour. The air was for some time at first close and suffocating, but as the operations progressed, the movement of the water, caused by the pumping, produced a con tinuous undulation, which made the air more agree able. The men had never felt the pangs of hunger, but they became very weak and were oppressed all the time with an unquenchable thirst, whicyth. a: not yet left them. They were in the habit of sit _m ent , side by side to keep themselves warm , a nd svh the one in the middle had reached a high." tem perature than the others, he or left hand neighbour, who in due time _ ga ve way for his right make way for the third. They s le p t also closo together upon logs of wood, and covered themselves with a piece of oilcloth which had been found in the working. On Sunday night the men, though still weak, were doing well, but they are now beginning to suffer a little pain from their long abstinence from food. There is no doubt that a few days' care ful treatment will restore them to their wonted strength. They were visited by large numbers of their fellow-workmen, who manifested a sincere joy at their deliverance. LAW .111 , TELLIC.;ENCE.—IuIy 23. • COURT OF PROBATE AND DIVORCE. (Before Sir C. Cresswell.) KNIGHTS V. KNIGHTS AND PAYNE. In this case the husband prayed for a divorce on the ground of his wife's adultery with the co respondent, and there was no defence. From the evidence it appeared that the parties were married several years ago, and that in 1853 the respondent, who was a professional singer at the Grecian Saloon, in the City-road, became ac quainted with the co-respondent, who was a private in the Guards, and that she eloped with him to America, where they had been living as man and wife. The co-respondent had been turned out of his regiment for misconduct, and there were no means of tracing him or the respondent to where they were at present residing. The case came on for hearing on Saturday, when some witnesses were called, who proved that a female, answering the description of the respondent, had been engaged as a singer at the Grecian Saloon in 1853, and went by the name of Dais, but the Court considered the evidence of her identity was not sufficient. The following, among other evidence, was pro duced to-day. Maria Harper stated that she was a niece of Mr. Knights', and was staying at his place in Herbert-street, New North-road, Hoxton, in August, 1853. Her uncle was absent from home for about a week, and during that time she remem bered going with her aunt to the Grecian Saloon, where she sang, and was announced in the bills by the name of Dais. After the performance they were joined by a man whom her aunt addressed as Mr. Payne, and he drove them in a dogcart to a house near Bow-street, where they had some supper. They afterwards went to another house in the neighbour hood, where they remained the night, and the next morning her aunt came to her bedroom and said that Mr. Payne wished to speak to her. She went with her to a room where Mr. Payne was in bed, and he shook hands with her. She perceived her aunt's bonnet, gloves, and other articles lying on the table. They breakfasted at this house, and Mr. Payne went and pawned his watch. They went away in a cab. and Mr. Payne, before leaving, gave her aunt a ring, which he had purchased out of the money raised on his watch, and kissed her. In reply to the learned Judge, Witness said that she did not tell her uncle what had occurred during his absence, but that she told him lies on being questioned by him. Two other witnesses were called, who gave cor roborative testimony, but The learned Judge deferred giving judgment until he fully considered the case. JONES V. JONES. This was a suit instituted by Elizabeth Harriet Jones for a dissolution of marriage on the ground of her husband's adultery and cruelty, to which there was no appearance. Dr. Spinks was counsel for the petitioner. It appeared that the parties were married in 1841, and lived for nine years afterwards at Deptford, where the respondent worked as a cooper. The ill treatment commenced shortly after marriage, and continued until the final separation in 1858. Previ ously they had separated several times, but the peti tioner had been induced to resume cohabitation on the respondent's promise of amendment. He was ad dicted to intemperance, and while under its influence his conduct was most violent. He kept a loaded gun, and several times threatened to shoot the petitioner, and her face was frequently disfigured from the vio lence. The circumstancs connected with their last separation, which took place at Romford, were his refusing to give up their child to their landlady while he was drinking at a public-house, and re quiring her to come for it herself. She complied, and on entering the public-house he knocked her down, and for some time she was insensible. When she recovered she went to her mother, and had not since cohabited with the respondent. He want to her mother's after her and threatened her life. A policeman was sent for,,and a large carving-knife was taken forcibly from him. He subsequently contracted an improper intercourse with a female named Sarah Dowset, with whom he cohabited. The evidence as to the name of this female was defective, and the case was ordered to stand over. WARNER V. WARNER. This was a petition for divorce by the wife, on the ground of her husband's cruelty and adultery, and there was no appearance on behalf of the respondent. The respondent was described as a retired draper, and the marriage was solemnised on the 17th of July, 1854. The parties cohabited at Nether Borough and other places in Leicestershire, and there was one child issue of the marriage. Amongst the acts of cruelty deposed to were holding the petitioner down while he spat tobacco into her mouth. On one occasion he was sentenced to six months' imprisonment for ill-treating her, and in 1860 she was obliged to leave him. The Court pronounced the decree nisi, with costs. Dr. Phillimore, Q.C., and Dr. Pritchard were counsel for the petitioner. There were two other cases disposed of, but the details were uninteresting. _ JULY 24. HARRIS V. HARRIS AND PAUL. In this case, which has been recently fully re ported, an application made on behalf of the co respondent, that he should .be dismissed from the suit, as no case had been established against him— which the Court granted. Dr. Spinks, on the part of the co-respondent, moved the Court to order his client costs. Mr. Luttler, for the petitioner, opposed the appli caticn, on the ground that the co-respondent's con duct led to the suit. Sir C. Cresswell decided that the costs for the co respondent must be a sequitur on his dismissal from the suit. POLICE INTELLIGENCE-July 24. SOUTHWARK.—CONVICTION OF A BRACE OF LADY RAILWAY THIEVES.—Sophia Landon and Mary Ann Sanders, two well-dressed, respectable looking young women, were brought before Mr. Burcham for final examination, charged with steal ing purses from two ladies, at the London, Brighton, and South Coast Railway Terminus, London-bridge. Mr. W. Edwin attended for the prisoners. Henry Hart, an officer in the employ of the rail way company, said that on Monday morning the 15th inst., he was on duty inside the station at the time excursion trains were getting off for Brighton. He saw the prisoners pass rapidly from the main booking office to the Palace-office, and hail a cab outside, His suspicions were at once aroused at this conduct, consequently he went and stopped the vehicle just as they had seated themselves, and on opening the door he saw Sanders put her right hand down, and two purses fell on the floor. He at once charged them with stealing them, and then Landon handed him a purse, and another fell from her. A telegraphic message was sent after the last train and owners were found for two of the purses, and they were now in attendance. Mrs. Jane Hicks said she went to Brighton on Monday morning, the 15th instant, and just as she was leaving the train one of the officers asked if any lady had lost her, purse. Witness missed hers immediately, and she identified one of the purses produced by the officer as her property. It contained half a sovereign and about 10s. in silver. She returned it safe to her pocket just before getting into the carriage, and had no knowledge of her loss until she got to Brighton. Elizabeth Hicks, the wife of a tanner residing in Bermondsey, said she went by the same train, and missed her purse as soon as they had started. She identified one of the purses produced as her property. Mr. Thomas Richards, an inspector of the com pany's police, said he had made inquiries about the other two purses, and had not found the owners. He had ascertained that Sanders' right name was Gordon, and her brother was now undergoing four years' penal servitude. ntly he Mr. Edwin, for the prisoners, said he could not contend against the evidence, conse trusted that his worship would deal they w had not under the Criminal Justice Act, as V i e th them been previously convicted. were known.

John Donkin, chief delivery f Benjamin. and of the foreign near London-bridg e , wharf, was brought up for final exa mination, charged with stealing several 1 bags of foreign sugar from the warehouses at Fen •• ning,s_wharf ; and Chas. Gates and Richard Dabbs, general dealers, of Bethnal-green were charged with receiving the same, well ' i it knowing to be stolen. The case having been completed, The m • agistritte committed all the prisoners for trial at the adjourned sessions for the county of Surrey. John and James Campbell, two powerful-look i g; men, were finally examined, charged with having n in their possession a number of counterfeit half-crowns, florins, and shillings; also a galvanic battery used. in manufacturing them. John Campbell was liked wise charged with assaulting the police. The magistrate committed the prisoners for trial. WANDSWORTH.— PILFERING AND RECED ING BY A COOK AND HER NIECE.—FLAGRANT CASE: / —Rene Scott, a very genteel-looking young gill about 15 years of age, was brought up on remand , before Mr. Ingham, charged with feloniously ~.,rec eiving a quantity of food, the property of M r. R. Abrahams, a gentleman residing at Balhaul house, Balham-hill. The case was first heard on Wednesday lr ' and on that occasion the prisoner's aunt, Rhoda Scott, a woman nearly 70 years of age, was charge,' with her for stealing the articles of food the pro perty of her master. The evidence adduced against both prisoners was to the effect that the aunt had been in the service of the prosecutor as cook for two years, and in con sequence of what recently came to his knowledge he applied to the police, and Constable Blackburn, of the V division, was employed in plain clothes t° watch the premises. On the afternoon of Tuesdui; the 16th inst., the younger prisoner was observed by the officer above 100 yards from the house , walking up and down, apparently as if she were waiting for some person. He continued watching, and shortly afterwards the elder prisoner came the gate and looked out. The girl went up to her, and Blackburn saw her receive a bundle from he r aunt, which she placed under her shawl, and then walked away. She was stopped by the officer, wh ° asked her what she had in her bundle, to which she answered she did not know, but that it was given 0 , her by her aunt. She was taken to the house, an on the bundle being searched it was found to con tain half a quartern loaf cut in two pieces, a quail' tity of dripping, butter, potatoes, and about four pounds of pieces of uncooked meat, the latter being proved to have been cut off the joints in the house' They were both taken into custody, and, after being examined before the magistrate, the elder prisoner was committed for two months with hard labour for the unlawful possession, and the niece was re' I manded for inquiries to be made about her charsn- ter. Yesterday an attorney's clerk, who appeared for the prisoner, handed in a letter relative to her pr e " vious good haracter. Mr. Abrahams said he had been informed that the prisoner had been in the habit of receivieg bundles from her aunt while at his house, for the last two years, but he had no witnesses present t ° prove it. The clerk complained that they were not broug ht forward; as his client had been remanded for t° purpose. He was instructed that nothing o f the kind had occurred before. Mr. Ingham said it would make a great diff er c i ence in his decision if it were pr ove d th a t s he h ad been in the habit of receiving b un dl es f r om n u e ,,, aunt, as in that case she must h ave k n own t' nature of the contents. Blackburn was recalled, and said the bundle 118 took from the prisoner contained nothing but articles stolen. Mr. Ingham said in that case she must 191 c known what the bundle contained. Blackburn also said that the parents of the Pri soner were highly respectable. Mr. Ingham ultimately decided upon taking th e e father recognisances for the good behaviour of the pr ,isoner for the next twelve months. He at t bo same time read the girl a suitable lecture upon a enormity of the offence she had committed, aaa told her that he was afraid that this was , onlY 13 , part of a wholesale system of plunder that had be e carried on for some time. The prisoner left the court crying. COUNTRY AfARKETS. SHEFFIELD --JuLY 23. hic li A fair attendance and a moderate s u pply o f grain, v 7 ro sold more freely than for some week s p as t.
