FRENCH DESPATCHES FROM CHINA.

The Moniteur publishes the official despatches
from the Commander of the French Forces in
China. He states that in storming the Tartar
camp on the 14th August, Lieutenant-Colonel
Schmitz, who commanded the storming column,
was the first to reach the top of the parapet after
crossing the ditch full of water, in which he was
the first to throw himself. In storming the first
of the Peiho forts he says that the French flag
was planted on the summit by drummer Fachard,
of the 102nd, one of the first arrived.
The French General issued the following gene-
ral order :—The forts of the Peiho have fallen into
the power of the allied armies, with 518 guns of
large calibre and an immense quantity of arms
and ammunition. I thank you, in the name of
the Emperor, for the constancy and energy which
you have displayed. You have carried high the
flag of France at 8,000 league§ from home, and
in a country in which the soil often failed beneath
your feet. The Emperor will bear in mind what
you have done.

MEETING OF VICTOR EMMANUEL AND

GARIBALDI.

The Times gives an account of this event,
which took place on the 26th October. Garibaldi,
on being informed that Cialdini was within an
hour's march, and that the King was not far
behind, left immediately with his staff. On
coming up with the column the Piedmontese
troops presented arms gnd opened to allow him
to pass through. Garibaldi dismounted and
embraced Cialdini affectionately ; he then re-
mounted to meet the King, who was not far
behind leading his own division. Victor Emma-
nuel recognised the red shirts with his telescope,
and galloped towards Garibaldi. Garibaldi did
the same when they were within ten paces of
each other. The, officers of the King and Gari-
baldi shouted " Long live Victor Emmanuel."
Garibaldi advanced, and in a voice hoarse with
emotion said, " King of Italy." Victor Emmanuel
put his hand to his kepi, then held it to Gari-
baldi, and equally moved, replied, " Thank you."
They stood thus, hand in hand, nearly a minute
without uttering another word. Garibaldi and
the King, still holding each other's hand, followed
the troops for about a quarter of an hour. Before
reaching Teano the King ordered a portion' of his
army to file off before Garibaldi that every one
might observe the good feeling between him and
the chieftain. The King afterwards reviewed
one of Garibaldi's brigades, and was received
with an unanimous shout of " Long live the King
of Italy."

GARIBALDI AND THE ENGLISH CHURCH

AT NAPLES.

The following is the reply of Garibaldi to a
deputation for permission for the English commu-
nity at Naples to purchase a site for a church :

" Grateful for the efficacious and generous sym-
pathy of the English, the Dictator thinks that
this is a very small return to make for so many
services received from them in the support of the
noble cause of the Italians. Not only is permis-
sion granted to erect a church within the limits of
the capital to persons who worship the same God
as the Italians,but the English are requested to
accept, as a national gift, the small spot of ground
required for the proposed project for which they
desire the use.—G. GARIBALDI."

THE VOTING IN THE TWO SICILIES.—
GREAT VICTORY OF THE PIEDMON-
TESE ARMY. ENTRY OF VICTOR
EMMANUEL INTO NAPLES.
The. Daily News publishes the following
despatch from its own correspondent:—
NAPLES, Nov.

The result of the Plebiscite has been officially
declared to-day as follows :—Ayes, 1,302,064 ;
noes, 10,312 ; majority in favour of annexation,
1,291,752.

Nine thousand disarmed prisoners have arrived
from Capua. Great rejoicings are taking place
in Naples. It is said that King Victor Emmanuel
will arrive to-day. Garibaldi remains in Naples.

The battle on the Garigano, on Saturday last,
is described in the Daily News. Victor Emmanuel
crossed the river last Wednesday, the enemy
falling back before him upon Gaeta. Their line
of march lay along that of the coast. Attacked
in front with great spirit by the Piedmontese
troops, and assailed on their right (according
to the telegram from Naples) by the fleet,
the Bourbon army dispersed, leaving in
the hands of the victors tents, waggons,
materiel, and a very large number of pri-
soners. The victory was so complete that
General Sonnaz was able to advance to the very
walls of Gaeta, and has taken up a position at
Mola, which is only three miles from the fortress.
This battle is to the army of the King of Naples
what the battle of Castelfidardo was to that of
the Pope. The Bourbon army retires to its last
refuge. The Bourbon King has doubtless troops
enough to enable him to make a stout resistance
'in one of the strongest fortresses iii Europe; but
with his changed prospects he can have no
motive for prolonging the struggle.
The Times says the union of Italy under one
crown is now plainly an inevitable event.

DESPATCHES.
A gazetteLondoCnilESE extraordinary is published
this morning. It contains two despatches, bdth
dated August 24, addressed to the Secretary at
War by Sir Hope Grant, commanding the forces
in China, with despatches respectively addressed
to him by Major-Generals Sir John Michael and
Sir R. Napier. They relate to the operations
of the army down to the taking of the China forts.
The main facts correspond with the accounts
already published in the Times. The breach
made in the gate of the Tangku fort was effected
by a couple of howitzers which were brought to
within fifty yards of the gate. A space sufficient
to admit one man had just been made when the
storming party forced their way in the single file
in, a most gallant manner. The despatch says
Lieut. Rogers, 44th Regiment, and Lieut. Bourslem,
67th Regiment, were the first to enter, when
they assisted in the regimental colours of the
67th, carried by Ensign Chaplin, who first
planted them on the breach, assisted by private
Lane, 57th Regiment, and subsequently on the
er,was the first to mount.
At av a
thei same
moment the French effected their
Clwhic h
entrance, and the garrison was driven back
step by step, and hurled pell-mell through
the embrasures on the opposite side. The

General Commanding-in-Chief thanks them for
their valuable services—Major-General Sir R.
Napier, Brigadier General Crofton, and Lieut.-
Colonel Mann. He especially notices the gallant
conduct of the storming party. It was com-
manded by Brigadier Reeves, who, himself
severely wounded in three places, did not
quit the field until he had conducted his men into
the fort. The Commander-in-Chief adds—Many
others, both officers and soldiers, behaved in a
manner deserving of being mentioned, but want
of time does not permit me to treat of it in this
despatch, and on a future occasion I shall do my-
self the honour of bringing their names to your
notice.

Writing August 24th, he says :—There is not
now the trace of an enemy near us, and the whole
of the forts and entrenched camps are in .our
hands, containing about 400 guns, many of which
are of very large calibre.

Sir Hope speaks highly of the conduct and.
gallant co-operation of the French, and says the
General de Montauban has always shown every
disposition to act thoroughly in concert with me,
and to co-operate in every means in his power.
Sir R. Napier extols the Armstrong guns. He
says they first opened at a range of 1,560 yards
on the enemy. These were the first shots fired
with that weapon in war, and the range and
accuracy of their fire excited the admiration of
the force. The Tartar horsemen were surprised
by the fire. The Tartar troops are said by
General Napier to have borne unflinchingly for a
considerable time such a fire as would have tried
any troops in the world.

The inquiry into the Road murder was re-opened on
Saturday.
The remains of the Earl of Dundonald are to be
buried at Westminster Abbey..
The Post says that Lord St. Leonard is in his usual

square, were destroyed by fire on Sunday. The factory
contained 100 pianos. An explosion occurred during the
fire which killed a woman and injured several persons.
