THE ACCIDENT TO THE PRINCE CONSORT.

0014111. G, iner.
The Prince Consort went out shooting yeeterdisy
with the Duke of Saxe Coburg Gotha, the Prince !lads'
rick William of Freesia, end Count Alexander MenedorfL
The Queen, accompanied by the Dukes of Saxe Coburg,
the Primes Frederick William al Premis, and the Primer
Alice, drove at 1 o'clock up to the Chide of Clellenberg,
where luncheon was prepared, and where the rinal shoot-
ing party joined her Majesty and the Prowess.
At a little before 5 o'clock, the Prince Ccesert, Wine
some Maness to transact, took leave of the peaty, and
entered a carriage to proceed alone to Coburg. Alter his
Royal Highnese had gone about three miles, the horses,
which were driven four in hand, commenced kicking
violently, and shortly started off at full speed. The coach-
man, assisted by his Royal Highness, did everything in his
power to arrest the progress of the frightened animals, but
without effect. At about the distance ate toile from Coburg the
road fromCalleciberg crosses the railway at • level, and upon
approaching this spot, the Prime Consort observed that
the bar which is lowered to prevent carriages creasing the
line whoa a train is expected was closed, preparatory to
the arrival of the train due at Coburg at 5 o'clock. A
waggon, which had been stopped by the her, was also
standing upon the road. A violent conennion being then
inevitable his Royal Highness jumped from the carriage and
fell to the pound. His Royal Highness, though receiving
some saperfichd cuts and bruises in the face, was not at all
stunned or seriously hurt, and shortly proceeded to assist
the coachman. The carriage had in the meantime corm
into collision with the her of the railway and
was upset, the coachman being dashed to
the pound and considerably hurt. His Royal
Highness immediately devoted his attention to this moo'
who was conveyed to the lodge of the railway servant who
has charge of the bar. The horses having thus freed them-
selves from the carriage continued their career into the
town of Coburg, and were there seen by Colonel Pomouby,
the Prince's Equerry, who had been in attendance in the
earlier part of the day. The colonel Immediately procured
a carriage, and secunog the services of Dr. Daly and Dr. Carl
Honehuti, the medical attendant of the Duke of 8111 LO
Coburg, he proceeded with them to meet his Royal Highness.
The Prince, who was still in the small cottage, directed the
attention of the medical gentlemen to the coachman, and
desired Colonel Pousouby to continue his route to meet
her Majesty the Queen, who was at that time on her retire
to Coburg, in order to inform her Majesty of what
had taken place. Ilia Royal Hipmen's escape may be con-
sidered as most providential.

The Prince's general health hes net at all suffered from
this accident, and the bruises will in all probability disap-
pier in a few days. We are happy to say that the coach-
man is considered much better this morning.
Her Majesty and the other royal personages dined in pri-
vate last night.

The Lord Bishop of London arrived in Carlisle

The authorities at Whitehall have, during the

of building a further number of iron armour-clad ships ;
and, although we (Aro, and Nary Gazette) believe
nothing definitive has as yet been resolved upon as to the
exact puss which are to be used in their construction, we
have reason to know that several of these ships will be
laid down. It is further proposed that one of these s►sf
be built at Chatham dockysrd. We shall, oonsequsagy, be
in a position to judge as to the respective mei* of the
work performed in public and private establishommis.

" The Caimacan of the Druses is-now among the

of paaic among the Druses of the mountains, and
their attitude is more undecided. The wisdom

TURIN, Ocr. 3.
M. Bertani has written the following letter to
the journals

Thaw, Oar. 3.

On my arrival in Turin yesterday to take my slat in the
Chamber of Deputies, I found public opinion violently excited
ag►inst me, and that principally on two grounds.
Ist. I am accused of having sent a despatch from Naples
to Teramo giving an order to oppose by faros the entry
of the royal sub-alpine troops into the Neapolitan states.
2ndly. I am accused of having advised the immediate ca
cupation of Rome even at the risk of a conflict with the
Freewill army.

To these two charges I oppose the most categorical denied,
and I declare

That neither to General Garibaldi or to myself did the
idea ever occur of stupidly (Holtespeente) exciting hostilities
against France ;
That the imputaticm that I opposed the entry of the
royal sub-alpine army into Naples is one of the many alum-
nice which have been launched against me, and this last is
the most infamous of all. AOOlOO Baum.

TURIN, FIUDAY.

Count Cavour has declared in the Chamber of
Deputies that there existed no public document or
private treaty, that no conversations or negotiations
had taken place, and that no power had ever made
any propositions or demands involving the cession
of a single inch of Italian soil. Count Cavour
further said that the fact that the news concerning
a treaty for the cession of Sardinia, of which the
journals had spoken, was simultaneously sent from
Vienna and Palermo was sufficient to show its
falsity and to explain its double origin.
In to-day's sitting of the Chamber of Deputies,
Signor Cabello demanded the production of all
documents relating to the entry of the SWIIIIIIIIII
troops into Umbria and the Marches.
Count Cavour refused to comply, and said that
the consideration of the diplomatic question arising
from that affair had scarcely commenced.

ROM PA
.I,ISPONDINT.)
PARIS, FRIDAY By OC).
iD even more bald and un-

generality of those agglomera-
, words which the court of Rome is
in the habit from time to time of inning with gnat
solemnity. It is only towards the end of the mess
of verbiage that a sentence having a praotioal
aspect noun. His Holiness speaks of measures
which he may be forced to take to preserve his
dignity, but leaves the world quite in the dark as
to what those measures are. He complains that
he is still waiting in vain for " any effect of the
reiterated promises" of the French government,
and as he takes no notice of the recent reinforce-
ments sent to Rome, it is to be inferred that he
does not consider the augmentation of General de
Gloyon's force as even an instalment of the satiafac-
. Eon which he has a right to expect from France.
The Prone construes the passage and the omission
above alluded to, as implying that the Pope has not
yet given up the project of leaving Rome, but the
Coissiatationnel, on the other hand, asserts that he
is resolved to stay there.
It is announced here that the meeting at Warsaw
of the Emperors cl Russia and Austria and the
Prince Regent of Prussia is definitively fixed for the
14th of this month. Until lately the government
journals in Paris said that the Prince Regent
would not be there at the same time as the
Emperor of Austria. But although this interview
has provoked much displeasure and excited gnat
anxiety at the Tuileries, now that it is certain to
take place orders are given to make light of it,
and to represent that, so far from being connived
in a spirit hostile to France, it is likely to result in
a better understanding with Basis. In conse-
quence, it is said, of the Emperor having expressed
to M. de Kisaeleff his astonishment that the

Warsaw meeting was generally accepted in Europe
as a demonstration against France, the ambassador

received instructions from St. Petorsbarg to trans-
mit assurances of the most tranquillising cha-
racter. It is, moreover, asserted that Napo-
leon LIL has expressed a desire to enter into a
sincere alliance with Russia—an alliance based
upon the common interests of the two states in the
east, and upon the urgency of a congress for the
settlement of the Italian question.
There is a talk of a new diplomatic circular from
M. Thouvenel, in which ho will pass in review
recent events in Italy, and declare that, without
withdrawing her sympathy with Piedmont, the
imperial government can guarantee nothing more
than Lombardy in case of an attack by Austria.
There is yet another version regarding the where-
abouts of M. Benedetti, the director at the
ministry of foreign affairs. The imperturbable
Patric, upon whose authority I announced last
night that he had not quitted Paris, now admits
that he is at this moment is Alexandria in Fogypt,
but adds that he has only gone on private business.
As the latter assertion is incredible, we now come
back after an unnecessary amount of semi-offloial
misrepresentations to the original news given by the
Messager du Midi, which I noticed as important
three days ago, viz., that K Benedetti has gone to
Alexandria " on a political mission."
The mans for the soul of General do Pimodau,
performed this morning at Notre Dame by the
Cardinal Archbishop of Paris, was attended by a
great gathering of the old nobility of the Faubourg
St. Germain, ladies forming the majority. The
son of tho deceased general, a boy four or five
years old, was preeent, and was very much kissed
at the end of the ceremony.
The Bourse has been very calm, and the Rents,
after a slight rise, seceded fur the close to yester-
day's prices. Mobilier rose 2fr. 60e. The
Northern Railway rose 21r. 60c., and Lyons
Ur. 76c. The other limes were & trifle lower.
