NEWS OF THE DAY.

According to later accounts from Naples, received via
Oettcitti another victory has crowned the arms of the
hero of the 'Volturno. The Neapolitans, on Wednesday,
made a sortie in fate from Capua, in order to support a
column of Bavarians who had not succeeded in making
good their retreat from the bloody battle of the Ist.
But they were again repulsed, and as a matter of course
the Bavarian column taken prisoners. Rumour is cur-
rent, and is mentioned by the Patrie under reserve, that
the bombardment of Capua commenced on Friday last,
that the Garibaldians had succeeded in making them-
selves masters of the south bastion of the fortress, and
that the Royalists were retiring towards Gaeta. The
latter portion of the rumour is exceedingly likely to be
tarred,- for Francis 11. must necessarily have become
alarmed lest his retreat towards his last remaining
stronghold shottld lib cut off by the advancing forces of
Cialdini, who has beer, making threatening movements
in his rear for some days pvgg.
The battle of the Volturno, gained by Garibaldi on
the Ist instant, is by far the most sanguinary, as it is
the most important battle in which Garibaldi has been
engaged. The King's soldiers, although defeated, it is
right to say, have amply retrieved their honour, and
vindicated their claim to be considered an army. Had
they fought such a battle a fortnight earlier, and had
they, on the morning of the Ist, been thrown more
rapidly forward, there is some reason to believe that
they would have been victorious. As it was they inflicted
severe losses, and were at one moment on the very verge
of success. Garibaldi, as usual, seems to have shown
himselfeverywhere, and to have exposed his life with
that recklessness which, no doubt, helped to inspire his
soldiers.

Our readers will find some interesting details of the
desperate combat in another column. According to a
correspondent of the Constitution,nel, it was the division
of General Bixio which decided the victory in favour of
the Garibaldians. but it would appear from one of the
two letters descriptive of the affair, which we publish,
that every movement of the Royalists had been
previously anticipated anti provided for by General
Garibaldi himself. Accordingly, when the second corps
of Neapolitans attempted, lyy crossing to the right of the
Consular road, in order to attack the Garibaldians posted
at Santa Maria, in their rear, they suddenly found
themselves by a prompt and masterly manoeuvre of
Garibaldi's, who ordered his volunteers to make an
analogous movement to that of the enemy's, caught in a
regular trapthey were hemmed in between the railway
and the road, surrounded on all sides, and annihilated.
Thin was the turning point of the battle, and decided
its fate.
The conflict was evidently a most murderous one, and
the cry of "No Quarter," we suspect, must have been
not unfrequently heard at various points on this bloody
field. A correspondent of another French paper says :
" A squadron of hussars or dragoons was literally anni-
hilated by a discharge of grape. The number of
prisoners is very great. Some estimate them even as
high as 6,000. The loss of the Garibaldians in wounded
has been considerable, but the deaths are proportionately
few. Colonel Spungaro distinguished himself greatly,
having retaken all the positions which the royalists had
forced, and captured seven of the guns. The Hungarian
hussars displayed great bravery, having twice rode down
the royalist infantry in the midst of a storm of bullets."
The King of Naples, whose gallant conduct on this
occasion is the more noticeable from its having been
wholly unexpected, has issued a fresh protest, in which
he indulges the hope that the " King of Sardinia will
reject with due inggnation the offer which Garibaldi
has insulted him with of his (Francesco's) kingdom."
This protest, like the display of courage which the
young monarch has just exhibited, is far too late, and
also equally' valueless.
We have some fresh speculations as to the probable
agenda of the Warsaw meeting : the announcement of
the intention of the Ambassadors of Austria and Prussia
at the Russian Court to be present at the interview of
their respective Sovereigns ; and a statement with
reference to Italian affairs, that the Austrian Cabinet,
although severely censuring the Sardinian invasion of
the Papal States, declares it is quite impossible for it to
intervene except with diplomatic weapons.
An ex-Chief Commissioner of our Woods and Forests
was at Naples at the same time with the Recorder of
Brighton, and he has sent to the Times a description of
the prison houses in the Two Sicilies, which forces us
to realise a second time, at an opportune moment, the
more eloquent and graphic pictures of these abodes of
human suffering, which were contained in Mr. Glad-
stone's memorable letter to Lord Aberdeen. Lord
Llanover's letter is a very different, and much more
valuable contribution to the cause of Italian liberty and
anion, than anything that has proceeded from the pen
of the solicitor's former colleague, Mr. Edwin James,
Q.C.
By the Bombay mail just arrived, information Ihas
been received of the continued pressure for transport on
the Indus. When the Oriental Inland Steam Com-
pany's steamer left Kurrachee for Moultan, more than
double the cargo that she was able to take was offered
for carriage. It further appears that a preliminary trial
of the system of steam trains introduced by the Oriental
Inland Steam Company, for navigating the Indian
rivers, has just been made upon the Clyde with satis-
factory results. The train which was tried, it is stated,
will be able to carry about three thousand tons of cargo
upon a draft of water of three feet, and it was found to
be easily manageable, and its action to be satisfactory in
every respect. A more public trial will shortly be made,
to which full publicity will be given.
The French national shooting match at Vincennes,
in the neighbourhood of Paris, is creating very little
interest in that city. Lord Fielding, who distinguished
himself so greatly at 'Wimbledon, has written to the
Times to explain that the affair is a purely private
speculation, got up by a few private individuals for a
pecuniary object. The proceedings are thus described
by an eye-witness :—" A large wooden wall is pierced
with large square apertures looking like pigeon holes,
and at the end of a gallery which extends from it you
see the target. The distance is very short, and the
targets are sufficiently large not to be easily missed. A
number of French soldiers and National Guards were
blazing away with indifferent success, as far as I could
make out. The rifle shooting was confined to French-
men armed with extraordinary looking instruments, with
prongs protecting from the butt-end, and a kind of
handle for the left hand to hold it by while aiming, thing
the cross-bows you see in the toy shops. I saw nothing
in the shape of an Englishman or an English rifle, save
a tall individual who stalked gravely about smoking a
short clay, with a long "duck shooter" on his shoulder.
He did not fire, however, and, appeared not is the
slightest degree concerned with what was going on."
The claim made by the French Government through
their Consul, M. de Pianelli, on behalf of the owners of
French vessels entering the port of Newcastle-upon-

Tyne, to enjoy the same privileges as the freemen of the
town of Newcastle, under the 10th Article of the treaty
between France and England, has been satisfactorily
arranged. The reply of the corporation to the Govern-
ment of France at once showed that the demand was not
tenable. The proper authorities have therefore received
directions, and with the concurrence of the two govern-
ments have issued the following regulations for the future
guidance of the collector and comptroller of customs at
Newcastle, which is as follows, viz. Instructions
given by the British Government to the collector and
comptroller of customs at Newcastle :—Oct. 1, 1860.
That no local dues of any description be levied on French
vessels or their cargoes, other or of higher amount than
are levied on British ships and their cargoes; but it
must be distinctly understood that these directions have
exclusive reference to national privileges, and not to
peculiar privileges of particular classes, such as freemen,
which cannot be extended to subjects of this or any other
country not being freemen."

Lord Stanley, Colonel Talbot, Lady Emma Stanley,
and a numerous party from Knowsley, visited the exhi-
bition of the Liverpool Society of Fine Arts on Satur-
day. The council awarded the society's prizes of £lOO
to Mr. Solomon's picture of "Drown'd, drown'd." In
the votes of the subscribers there was a tie between this
picture and that of " The Murder of Thomas a Beeket,"
by Mr. Cross; Mr. O'Neil's "Volunteer " came next.
The sooner opinion is delivered by a superior court on
the exemption of volunteers from toll dues, which is
expected il/ the ensuing term, the better for our riflemen
and the toll collectors as well. There is a want of uni-
formity in the practice of turnpike trustees on this sub-
ject—some issuing instructions for its exaction, and
others remitting the payment of their own accord. The
result is that disagreeable squabbles are frequently tak-
ing place, and sometimes one party and sometimes an-
other appearing by summons before the magistrates.
On Saturday two cases were decided--neat Marylebone
and the other at Clerkenwell Police-court ; and in both
cases the decision was in favour of the volunteers.

On Thursday evening a gentleman from New Orleans
was robbed in West George-street, Glasgow, of a pocket-
book containing a cheque for £3BO, a bill for £4OO, a
promissory note for 2,500 dollars, a bill of exchange for
3,0 M dollars, a bill for 115 dollars, a bill for £6O or
£7O, and nine £1 hank notes. The theft was com-
mitted by a woman who accosted the gentleman in the
street. As usual in such cases, the booty was handed to
an accoMplice. The cheques and bills, hoWeveti
be of no me to the thieves.

Cricketing is over for the season, and the Eleven
seem to have no notion of a trip to Australia to fill up
the recess. The head averages of the Surrey batsmen
in their county matches are—Caffyn, nineteen and two
over, and. G. C. Lane, Esq., seventeen and nine over.
Out of the ten matches played between Surrey and Not-
tingham, each has won five.
On Friday, a return, presented to Parliament, was
issued og " Pauperism," from which it appears that on
the Ist of lanuary last there were 31,543 insane paupers
chargeable to unions, of which the majority were
females. The annual cost was upwards of £250,000.
As the Times has at length had the courage to
designate the mobbing and rioting at St. George's-in-the-
East by its right name, we suppose the public may
anticipate a speedy termination to these disgraceful and
discreditable scenes.
