ROME AND SARDINIA.

A letter from Turin of the 14th, in the Dlbafs,
says :—" The celebrated Father Passaglia, one
of the principal agents of the Holy See, is
now at Turin, having come with the assent
of the court of Rome and of our government.
Many comments are of course made on this fact.
The session of (parliament will be held at Turin,
but on separating, the chambers will declare that
their next session shall be held at Rome."

The Annonia, the well-known ultramontane
journal of Turin, says :—" In spite of the protests
and prayers of Catholics, law and justice will not
prevail against force, and Rome, sooner or later,
will share the fate of Gaeta. The protection of
France towards the Holy Father will be reduced to
the offering hinia steamer to carry him into exile."

LATEST INTELLIGENCE.

AUSTRIA AND THE FALL OF GAETA.

The Austrian journals dilate upon the conse-
quences of the fall of Gaeta as regards Austria. The
A ustrian Gazette observes that the definitive paci-
fication of Southern Italy puts 100,000 men at the
disposal of the Piedmontese government. "The
fall of Gaeta," says this journal, " must
necessarily react upon the Roman question,
and France, pressed by England and Sardinia,
cannot do otherwise than abandon the Pope, as
it has abandoned Francis the Second. What is to
prevent Piedmont from declaring war upon Aus-
tria on the day on which the Italian parliament.
from the top of the Quirinal, decrees such a war r
If France has promised to observe neutrality in
the event of a Piedmontese attack on Austria, and
in case of Austria not having the support of
Germany, on the other hand, has not M. de
Schleinitz declared in the Chamber of Deputies, at
Berlin, that Prussia Lae entered into no engage-
ment with Austria relative to Venetia 1 Th us,
continues the Gaatte, Austria will find herelf alone
in the contest with Italy ; and though she may have
nothing to fear from Italy alone, she has much to
apprehend from the allies that Italy would find in
the eastern provinces of the empire.
Another journal of Vienna, the Oat Deutsche
Peat, betrays still greater anxiety.
At Milan the municipality have published a
proclamation, in which they say that the roar of
the cannon celebrating the fall of Gaeta will be
heard at Rome and Venice ; and the proclamation
concludes by calling upon Italians to "renew the
oatl. of union, to the cry of Long live the King of
Italy !' "

stamping by day ; the bucks are still in reserve. There is a
quantity of water coming out of the crosscut cortb. No
doubt we are getting near the lode. I put 2 men last week
to open on a north lode, named Harvey's lode ;on plan the
lode is about (d foot wide. We tried some of the work, it
made a splendid van for tin. We intend putting down a
shaft on this lode as fast as possible. This lode will give
over .10 fathoms of backs from edit level."

DENMARK AND PRUSSIA.

Ad vices from Berlin state that the Danish Minis-
ter at the Court of Prussia has received orders
from his government to make overtures to the
Prussian Cabinet, which may lead to the amicable
solution of the question of the Duchies. It is
added that, in the event of M. de Bchleinitz find-
ing the new propositions satisfactory enough to
open a negotiation, the Germanic Diet would not
raise any difficulties, as it tacitly accepts the direc-
tion of Prussia.

Blackburn and Common Juric..)
RAFaUN r. BTARKT.—BREACH OP PROMIse.

Tais was an action for breach of promise of Milrriagt, to
which the defendant pleaded that he did not promise as
alleged: and secondly, that be had been discharged from
the promise if he bad made it.
Mr. Collier and Mr. Jones were counsel for the plaintiff.
Mr. Montagu Smith and Mr. Moder represented the de-
fendant..

The plaintiff in this action is a widow, about 36 years of age,
and the had been married in 1841, at the age of 16. Her hus-
band died in 1&15, and since then she had kept the Temperance
Hotel, at Falmouth. The defendant is • travelling draper,
and in 1855 formed the acquaintance of the plaintiff, he
being in the habit of frequenting her house in his turns
around the neighboarli, generally remaining there from
the Friday until the Saturday ; but eventually he continued
to remain up till Monday, taking the plaintiff to chapel on
the Sunday evenings. The plaintiff and defendant were
regarded as engaged persons, and the latter frequently spoke
of himself as the future master of the house, and so matters
went on until 1860, defendant havingwritten several letters
to the plaintiff. In one he wrote—" Dear Emly, my, kind
compliments to you, and hopping this will find you well
as it leaves me. I hope to be here on Friday.—Believe me
still, your affectionate adreirer, George Starke " In ano-
ther letter he spoke of "two loving hearts," alluding to his
own and the plaintiff's, and wrote about his heart "leaping
with joy " when be law her. After some time the defend-
ant acknowledged that he had • wife and children in
Scotland, on which the engagement was broken off.

ITALY.

According to letters from Naples, General Fer-
rari one of the aides-de-camp of Francis 11., has
died at Gaeta of typhus fever. The Duke de San
Vito was carried off by the same disease about.two
months before. It appears certain that the seeds
of that complaint bad manifested themselves among
so many men shut up for three months in the
fortress, and that this tendency, without having
made very great progress, nevertheless contributed
to excite alarm.

A letter from Turin, of the 13th, rays :
Count Came is to leaveto-niarrow for Milan to join the
Sing. General de la Marmora arrived here last mooing
from his mission to Berlin, and the Council of Ministers
assembled this morning to hear his report. He is to ac-
company the President of the Council to Milan. An under-
standing will be there come to with the King on the minis-
terial modifications which have been so long announced,
and it is probable that the general will return to the
Ministry of War, which he directed dosing many yours
with great success. His entrance into the cabinet will com-
plete the reconciliation which has taken place between
Count Cevour sod M. Itatimai, he being a political humid
of the latter. and having been one of his cabinet after the
peace of Villgfrance. General Ilixfo returned from ea-
pren some days back. He has had several conferences with
Count Carour, and has brought about a good understanding
between the Minister and Garibaldi. The oelebratel ex-
Dictator demands the thorough arming of the country, and
the Ministry is disposed to satisfy him.
Intelligence from Turin gives the following
classification of the 417 deputies elected for the
Italian parliament ; uncertain 11 ; united oppo-
sition, 73 ; ministerialists, 339.

THE LAST DAYS AT GAETA.

years."

The Monitenr publishes the following :

A private despateh ham announced the arrival at Rome,
on the 14th inst., of the King and Queen of Naples. They
are accompanied by the King's brothers, and by General
Bosco, who has been appointed gentleman of the chamber.
11. Casella has remained at Gaeta to settle all matters con-
cerning the surrender of the fortress.
Their Majesties alighted at the Palace of the Quirinsf,
where his Holiness Pope Pins IX. paid them a visit on the
15th.

It appears that the bombardment on the 11th and 12th
was of extreme violence. The explosion of the powder
magazines had rendered the rifled cannon useless ; but the
fortress still replied with the other guns. The Neapolitan
artillerymen displayed the greatest bravery ; twice they
silenced the guns of the Batterie des Cepucius.
On the 13th, although negotiations had been partially
opened, the bombardment continued with the same vio-
lence ; two batteries of the fortress were demolished, and
then the capitulation was signed. It was the fortress that
fired the last cannon shot. It appears that from the
demand to surrender to the moment the capitulation was
signed the Piedmontese threw 50,000 shells into the
fortress.

On the 14th the Sardinian troops occupied one-half 02
the town at 8 a.m. At the same time the Queen, the
Princes, the royal household, and the foreign ministers em-
barked on board La Rouette. The King passed the Nea-
politan troops in review, who wept as they presented arms
to him. An immense crowd was assembled, and the popu-
lation shed tears. The Kiog was very pale from emotion,
Royal honours were paid to Francis 11. as ho embarked on
board la Mouette. As the vessel left a salute of 21 guns
was fired and the flags were lowered from the batteries,
while the garrison shouted " Long live the King !" though
in presence of the Piedmoutese, already in possession.

The Doke of Cambridge baying expressed his
intention of reviewing the troop at this garrison this

consequence of the inclement weather, the entire force was
tinder anus at 10 o'clock this morning, and formed on Chat-
hem lines to rimer his Royal Highness, who was expected
to arrive at the Chatham station by the 11.8 p.m. train. At

questions on which the united action, if not the
very existence, of the Liberal party depends.
Reactionary Liberals may perhaps smile at this
description, and affect to make light of the matter.
But if they venture to act with levity or indif-
ference, they will soon be undeceived. Whether
the Government gives the measure a hearty and
united support or not, their tenure of power
really very much depends on the decision of to-
day. The temporary abandonment of Reform has
gone far to divide the Liberal party, by alienating
its more earnest members ; and if Sir JOHN Tax.
Lswxy's motion is defeated, the disorganization
amongst the supporters of Government will be
complete ; their action will be paralysed, and
their power gone. It matters comparatively little
how long the Government remains in office after
tho only great questions on which the Party and
the country are interested have been abandoned
or defeated. It will exist on sufferance and may be
overthrown by a parliamentary accident at any
moment. But, whoever may still be disposed to
treat the question with indifference, it is quite cer-
tain that the Liberal Constituencies will not. The
division list of to-day will be most carefully scru-
tinised, and if any Liberal members are absent
from their post, or unfaithful to their trust, the
defection will be noted and remembered by their
constituents. Those who have hitherto trifled
with the question had better look at it seriously
to-day. If they have never voted before, they
must make up their minds now. They must decide
at once, and their decision—the decision of hesitat-
ing lukewarm Liberal members—will sot only
determine the vote on Sir Jolts THELAwsr's
motion, but in the long run much else besides.

GERMANY.

The National Association of Germany has jest
hold two sittings at Heidelberg, under the presi-
dency of Kde Beuningsen. That gentleman, in a
speech which was much applauded, expressed the
hope that at no distant date the-Germans would be
able to exttud a fraternal hand to Austria ; but he
recommended the association not, for the present,
to meddle in the affairs of that empire, because
they were not sufficiently known. In spite, how-
ever, of that recommendation, M. Menge, of Bonn,
presented a motion declaring that the united Aus-
trian monarchy, based on the diploma and patent
of October and February, is in contradiction with
the German federal law. The motion was rejected
by a large majority.

FRANCE.

The Paris correspondent of the Independance
says :—" The government of the Emperor is pre-
paring to send into the departments a certain num-
ber of the auditors of the Council of State, whose
duty it shall be to observe the feeling of the pro-
vinces, and to supervise the reports made by the
prefectoral authorities. The government is anxious
to know the real tendency of public opinion in
France, with a view to the probable and speedy
dissolution of the Corps Legislatif. It is generally
expected that the Emperor will hare recourse to
this step towards the end of the year. The disso-
lution of the Corps Legislatif would be the almost
inevitable consequence of the fall of the temporal
power of the papacy, which people seem to expect
by that time. The month of December, it is well
known, has always been fruitful in the revelations
of the first and second empire."

THE UNITED STATES.

QtrEENBTOWN, Toissosy.

The Liverpool, New York, and Philadelphia
Company's steamer Etna, Captain Kennedy, from
New York on the 9th inst., arrived here at 2 p.m.
She brings the United States mail, four cabin and
eighty-two steerage passengers. The Etna landed
all mails. The Vigo had arrived out.
The Peace Congress at Washington held a abort
session on the Bth inst. It still sat with closed
doors. Nothing definite had been accomplished.
It was probable that many points of the Crit-
tenden, Bagler, and Bonier states propositions
would be adopted.

A member of the Convention had received com-
munications from several leading New York
bankers and brokers, that unless a compromise was
agreed to, incoming administrations would have
nothing to expect from capitalists in the way of
upholding the financial credit of government.
A resolution was about to be brought before the
Louisiana Convention, inviting all states, except
those in New England, to join the Southern Con-
federacy.
Montgomery advice; affirmed that the Southern
Congress was about to levy an export duty of
1 per cent, per pound (?)on cotton.
The New York Times of the 9th inst. says :
Colonel Haynes, special envoy from South Caro-
lina, and Lieutenant Hill, bearer of Major Ander-
son's message, left Washington yesterday with
despatches, on which will probably depend the
breaking out of war. Colonel Haynes carries the
refusal of the government to surrender Fort
Sumter, and Lieutenant Hill the final instruc-
tions from the government to Major Anderson,
oommander of the fort. The impression prevailed
that an attack on Fort Sumter would not take
I place immediately.
