THE EXPRESS. THURSDAY EVENING, OCTOBER 4, 1860.

the accused spoke to them of the missing blanket.
MORGAN, the pariah constable, with URCH, one of
the county police, went upstairs at half-pest seven.
and asked the nurse to show them the child's ea,
which she did. " The clothes," he adds, 11 wen
smooth—smoother than I should have ex-
" pasted. I said, ' Do you mean to say that this to
" ' where the child was taken from 1' She ye-
a plied, Yee.' The clothes were turned down

14 quite

and I saw the mark of the little fellow's head

"on the pillow. I said to the nurse, Have you
" lost anything out of the nursery except the
" child r She replied there was a blanket taken
" or drawn, I forget which word she used, hum
".the cot ; but there was nothing else missing."
T aco gives the same testimony, adding that the
nurse said the blanket " might have been drawn
" out without removing the quilt." Mrs. Krxr,
too, knew, before her husband set out for Trow-
bridge, and, therefore, before the body was found,
that the blanket was missing ; and apparently her
informant must also have been the nurse, though
this is not expressly stated in her evidence. On
the other hand, the nurse stated positively to
FoLsv, the superintendent of the Wilts county
police, that she "had never missed the blanket
" till the child wee found." This was
stated in the hearing of Woi.rs, another
constable, who confirms FOILLY'B evidence
on this point. This discrepancy is, however, in
itself of no very great importance. Its value
must very much depend on whether the circum-
stances under which it comes out point to some
intelligible motive or not. Finding the blanket gone
is, of course, compatible with perfect innocence;
indeed, luite natural under the circumstances ; but
the subsequent and deliberate denial of this simple
knowledge would certainly look like a consciousness

of guilt. If the denial comes later, and is no
after-thought, it may show a desire to conceal the
knowledge which, though innocent in itself, may
appear to the conscious mind an indirect oonse-
.luence of guilt. It ought to be stated, however,
that the same discrepancy of statement with re-
gard to the blanket comes out in the case of Mr.
Karr as well as of the nuns.

But the most important point in the new evi-
dence is that brought out on Tuesday with regard
to the piece of flannel found in the soil of the
closet where the body was discovered. The
nurse's counsel, Mr. Rnerom, tried, as in duty
bound, to make light of this, submitting
that it had no connexion whatever with the murder,
and could not be received as evidence. To this,
however, the Chairman properly replied, that
" The piece of fishnet MU found lying on the sur-
" face of the soil, and was seen shortly after the
" body was taken out. It was impossible, there-
" fore, to exclude it from the evidence. At the
" same time, in order that there might be no pre- '
" judice about the matter, he might state that he
" could not tell what weight should be attached to
" the simple fact that a piece of flannel, even
" though it could be proved to belong to the psi-
" goner, was found in the water-closet underneath
" the body of the child. It went only a little way
" to connect her with a crime which was committed
" in her bedroom." The evidence of Finer, the con-
stable who found this piece of flannel, is too im-
portant to be omitted. Ho says :—" I believe
" the flannel to be a woman's chest flannel. There
" were marks of recent blood on it. The blood
" was in • congealed state. The principal part
" was in the centre, as if it had dropped on it. I
" saw the construction of the privy. Below the
" top seat there was a splash-board, on which I
" think the body of the child must have rested.
" If the body had been lying on the soil it could
" not have been reached by • inan's arm. I got
" up the flannel by a hook attached to a @tick
" from underneath the splash-board. There was
"no soil on the flanneL ft appeared to have
" been only recently there. The blood did not
" penetrate the flannel, but it appeared to have
" dropped so gently on it that it had congealed
" drop by drop." It is difficult to avoid believing
that this piece of flannel has an important wailer ion
with the murder, and may help to elucidate the way
in which it was actually effected. All the evidence
with regard to the appearance of the body of the
child goes to prove that death was not the result of
the dreadful wounds inflicted on it. The deep
stab in the side yes certainly inflicted after death,
and that in the throat while the child, if
not actually dead, was dying, the blood being still
I warm, but fast congealing. On the other hand,
the positive appearances agree with the supposi-
tion of Mr. SACNUZIVI in his opening statement,
that death was caused by suffocation. When the
body was found "the mouth had a blackened
" appearance, and • the tongue protruded be-
" tween the teeth "—the result, in all likeli-
hood, according to the medical testimony, of
" pressure during life." These appearances are,
in fact, those produced by strangulation.
This may help to explain the use both of the
blanket and the flannel, as well as to account for
their presence with the body of the murdered
child. The child's first cry might have been
stifled with this very piece of flannel, which would
be at hand for the purpose, and his convulsive
efforts stilled by winding him tightly in the blanket.
Whether there was any deliberate intention
to murder er not, this would effectually
secure the first and most imperious con-
dition of concealment at which the guilty party
or parties would naturally aim —silence, the
prompt suppression of any noise likely to rajas the
house. When it was resolved to finish the work
and conceal the body, it would be taken away in
the blanket, unrolled to inflict the throat wound,
and hastily thrown, as the evidence shows, head-
foremost into the closet. This would account for
the position of the piece of flannel fallen from
the poor child's mouth, as well as for the
drops of half-congealed blood found upon it.
They would, in such a position, slowly drip down
upon it from the open wound. This is what the
facts of the case already proved seem to suggest.
But even if the manner of the death be disco-
vered, we are still far enough from having found
out the murderer. The flannel is as yet no
evidence against the accused, for it has not in any
way been connected with her.

" The Prince of Wales," writes it correspondent
in Canada, " has been from town to town and from town to
village, through all the mod flourishing portions of this
gigantic dependency, the lakes in which are almo-a bigger
than all England, and where the rivers are mighty tribute-
ries,of the Atlantic. The impressions which he will carry
away from such a country cannot be otherwise then good,
and it is almost difficult to fled terms to express the opi-
nion which he must have funned of the wamheartod, de-
voted loyalty of the people. With the one bersexception of
Kingston, he has met in every town, on every lake, and at
every village, such a spontaneous outpouring of loyal en-
thusiasm as never yet has greeted even the met powerful
monarchs, and as no living mcmarch, wave the Queen, could
hope to see excelled. Prom the highest dignitaries of this
Lod to the poorest and lad-settled of the backwoodsmen,
all have welcomed his coming with joy and festivity, and
all seem to have felt proud and happy at having done
something towards the Mat of his reception. Whether it
has been the erection of a magnificent and costly orch in
some greet town, or only weaving • garland of wild flowers
together between the trees of half-cleared had, same
feeling has been manifested everywhere from Nova Scotia
to Lake Huron, from the Saguenay to Niagara."

LATEST INTELLIGENCE.

GARIBALDI BEFORE CAPITA.
POSITION OP THE CONTENDING ARMIES.

The Pairs contains the following " Latest
News • :

" The last despatches from Naples state that Gari-
baldi had returned to the army before Capua, and
had held a council of war, which all the com-
manders of corps were summoned to attend. We
are assured that at this council it was proposed to
concentrate all disposable forces and to deliver a
decisive battle to the royal army upon the Volturno,
but that this plan having been deemed inadmia-

Bible, it was decided that the bombardment should
be recommenced as soon as the artillery which was
expected should have been received. The royal
army was fortifying itself in the positions which it
bad taken, and continued to bring immense stores
of ammunition and provisions into Gaeta. It had
established on the left of the place an intrenched
camp, defended by immense and well-armed works.
Gaeta will be enabled to sustain a siege of several
months, and Garibaldi, if left to his own resources,
will never be able to take it. The Piedmontese
troops have not yet entered the Neapolitan States,
but there is no doubt that they will very shortly
do so."

The following is extracted from a letter of
the correspondent of the Dibats at Naples :
" The royal force consists of about 25,000 men,
who appear determined to fight. King Francis and
his brothers are constantly in the midst of the
troops, encouraging them to a vigorous resistance,
promising rewards, and promoting a belief that
a friendly army is on the march to their assistance.
The army not only occupies Gaeta, but likewise
Salt, Rearm, Cajazzo, and other surrounding vil-
lages. The sick and wounded are lodged in the
barracks of Capua. The corps of observation, which
holds the line of country between Cajazzo and
Capua, is commanded by Marshal Ruffo and
General de Liguori. General Barbalonga
commands the corps which is encamped in the
neighbourhood of San-Germano. General Santo
Vito holds the fortress of Gaeta. There is a scar-
city of provisions in Capua. For some days past
tobacco could not be had, and salt was very dear.
The soldiers suffer a good deal, but they do not
complain. The corps of 4,000 men, who were en-
camped outside of Capua, and who retired before
Garibaldi's force, endeavoured to turn the latter
by Piedemonte, and advanced for this purpose as far
as Salopaga, eight miles from Maddaloni ; but they
were recalled by a sudden order on the 27th.
Garibaldi's scouts having given information of the
fact, Garibaldi transferred his headquarters to
Caserta, brought up 1,000 Sicilians from Nee
plea, who had only arrived the night before,
and strongly fortified Maddaloni. Another royalist
force which was ;advancing from Gaeta to San-
Germano, likewise received orders to fall back
upon Gaeta and Capua. The King's army is there-
fore at this moment divided into three corps of
observation, and in possession of the country• be-
tween Cajazzo and Gaeta. The King has eight
entire regiments of cavalry and four incomplete
regiments, which traverse the defence line of the
Volturno and streugthen the advanced poste. The
order for this concentration of the royal army was
probably given after the defeat of the pontifical
troops and the march of Cialdini towards the
Neapolitan frontier.
"Preparations are also going forward on the side
of Garibaldi The batteries which had been
placed on the heights of San-Angelo and San-
Michael have been abandoned as insufficieut fertile
bombardment of Capua. But a battery has been
placed on San-Tommaso, where General Malenchini
commands ; and barricades and some cannon have
been placed along the whole line. Everything
therefore would seem to indicate that
the Dictator has, fur the moment, aban-
doned the idea of bombarding Capua, and that ho
is preparing to resist any attack of the royal forces.
King Francis's army, shut in by the Piedmonteae on
the side of the Roman States, on the Neapolitan
side by the Garibaldians, and on the side of the
Abruzzi and the Adriatic by the squadron of Ad-
miral Persano, will be obliged either to surrender
or try a coup de mein upon Naples, which is by no
means in kpueition to resist a serious attack."

THE IMPERIAL INTERVIEW AT WARSAW.

The St. Petersburg correspondent of the Nord
says that the initiative of the expected Interview
between the Emperor of Russia and the Emperor
of Austria was taken by the latter, and that it will
lead to no change in the political situation of those
powers ; that public opinion in St. Petersburg
and in Russia is more than ever averse to au alli-
ance which would eventually make Russia the
gendarme of Europe—a thankless position which
she too long occupied.

Iu to-day's sitting of the Chambers, a committee

Count Cavour, but desired that all dualism with

EXPRESS FROM PARIS.

(nom OUR OWN CORRISPONDINT.)
PARIS, WEDNESDAY EMIDIO.

The Pays says that the despatch published in
London giving an account of the Emperor's answer
to the Pope sent by the Duke de Cadore is " of the
most complete exactitude." The form of the
phrase, and the little credit enjoyed by the Pays,
leave it doubtful whether " exactitude" may not be
a misprint for "in-exactitude."
♦ private letter from Madrid, dated Sept. 29,
states that M. Rios Roses, the Spanish ambassador
at Rome, who was absent on leave, has been
ordered to return immediately to his poet in order
to offer the Pope an asylum in Spain. The general
opinion in Spain is that the papacy cannot ac-
quiesce in the position which the French Emperor
offers to guarantee, because it involves the loss of
all the temporal power. This opiniou is shared
by the gre at majority of French catholics in Paris,
who think it essential to the dignity and inde-
pendence of the Pope that he should withdraw
himself from French protection. Unfortunately
for the Pope he has only a sort of Hobson's choice.
His position at Rome is no doubt very bad, but
with the exception of a few enthusiastic bigots,
who hope impossible things, those who wish to see
him elsewhere are his enemies.

I observe in the London journals of yesterday a
telegram, stating that a short time since M.
Thonvenel tendered Lis resignation, ou the
ground that the French government did not suf-
ficiently protect the Pope, but that he consented
to continue in his office when the result of
the Duke de Cedore's mission was known.
You will remember that the probability of a
change in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs was men-
tioned in this correspondence exclusively some
few days ago. It is important to notice this con-
firmation of a piece of news, which very possibly
may have been thought at the time to be only an
idle rumour. It is now, and in all likelihood will
ever be (until the publication of the secret corres-
pondence of the present age), doubtful whether in
sending large reinforcements to Rome the Em-
peror hes really been overruled by his minister, or
whether be has chosen to thrust upon him the re-
sponsibility of a step not easily to bo reconciled
with recent imperial pamphlets, acts, and pro-
fessions.

The announcement in the French papers yester-
day that M. Benedetti had gone to Alexandria on
a political mission was essentially false, because it
contained a suppressio yeti. He has only gone to
Alexandria, supposing him to touch there, en route
for Beyrout, hls mission there being to fulfil the
duties of French commissioner in the Syrian inquiry.
The shareholders in M. Lesseps' scheme can there-
fore derive no comfort from the fact of his voyage.
The confidence exhibited at the Bourse in the
midst of the anxious Italian crisis is most remark-
able. To-day the upward tendency was more de-
cided than ever. The Route rose 30c. both for
cash and for account, closing at 69fr. 20c.

ITALY.

SARDINIA.

Glom mum won' col

TURIN. &pr. 30.

I sit down to write to you amid the thunder of
cannon, announcing the national exultation at the
surrender of Ancona, and the capture of its garri-
son, b,OOO strong. This glorious result was known
yesterday, when the King, at half-past two in the
afternoon, left for Bologna, whence lie will proceed
to Aneoua--and perhaps further still. The people,
in crowds, were in waiting along the roads to see
the King pass, and at every station of the railway
the people cheered " Long live the King of Italy r
His Majesty wore his uniform, and being in an
open carriage was able to salute the people, which
he did in a military manner. He looked cheerful,
and it was plain that he was satisfied, not only with
the news just received, but also with the spontane-
ous display of affection on the part of his subjects.
No national guards, no regular troops were posted
anywhere, from which it may be inferred that his
departure had not been officially notified.
Count Cavour had preceded the King to the ata-
tion in a close carriage by a quarter of an hour, but
being recognised by the crowd he became the object
of an ovation, which was repeated on his return,
after he had saluted and seen his Majesty depart.
The opposition of the Maminiaus has made the
minister more popular than ever. We received
last night and this morning telegrams reporting
how the Kiug had been enthusiastically received
along the route. We are also receiving accounts of
the great exertions demanded of the lee lien and
grenadiers who have been escorting the Pontifical
prisoners of war, in their efforts to protect and save
them from the fury of the people in the Marches and
Romagna. The villagers and peasants had come
up to the roads with scythes, reaping-hooks, and
bludgeons, hoping to fall on them. It was a fear-
ful sight.
The latest intelligence from Naples induces us to
hope that Garibaldi is beginning to perceive that
the MAZIIIIIIIII6 are ruling instead of himself, rob-
bing him of his popularity and depriving the liberal
party of the reputatiou it had acquired in Tuscany
and the [Emilia by its wise prudence and temperate
forbearance. Why Dr. Bertani should have been
made a colonel and a secretary of state we do not
know, but it has been a most unfortunate act. It
appears that at Naples he gives orders opposed to
those of Garibaldi himself, arresting persona at all
favourable to the annexation, and that he has
actuidly sent an order to the frontiers to oppose our
soldiers iu case these may wish to pass .or be pursuing
the remains of Lareoriciere'r form into those pro-
vinces where the republicans have introduced
anarchy. I say anarchy, for the reepectable in habitanta
are praying fur a regular government similar to that
which is established in all the provinces of Central
Italy, wherever, in short, our government Nis been
installed. A deputation was on the point of leaving
Naples to come here and request our interposition
iu a sunder way, but the dictatorial government
prevented it, and even banished some of its chief
inenibers—Kilviu Spaventa, for instance, whose
frankness had not only procured him the honour of
imprisonment and exile from the Kings of Naples,
but has now drawn down upon him the hatred of
Bertaui. The exile has thus again come here to
Turin, this sanctuary of the oppressed, where even
Lamoriedirs may freely reside with the indifference
of the public for his sole punishment.
A Pitalmontese deputy, the advocate Reggio,
has published a pamphlet entitled, " Cavour or
IGariWili I" Ha points out in it the numerous
abuses and faults of the persons about Garibaldi,
and appeals to the General's loyalty to put au end
to a discord so injurious to the whole of Italy.
Couut Stsu:kelberg, the Russian representative
at Turin, is, by command of his sovereign, to be at
Warsaw during the Congress. Hence it is con-
cluded here that Italian affairs will be discussed
there, and that ho has been summoned thither as
a diplomatist well acquainted with the true state
of Italy. Be that as it may, it will be no harm
' in Umbria awl the
for Italy to have on the day when the confirms
mmeaertahesan,
inaccili.cmilPly "slur Naples,fa which diplomacy
may contemplate, and to disturb which would
occasion still graver disorders, and provoke still

greater dangers. But in order that this accom-
plished fact, as far as Sicily and Naples are con
