GARIBALDI'S ADDRESSES 70 THE

ITALIAN PRIESTS.

In our impression of yesterday we gave Gari-
baldi's address to the Italian priests of the 12th
instant. It must, however, be read in connection
with the previous address issued by him from
Turin nearly four months ago, to the following
effect

" To the Italian Priests,—A sublime mission is marked
out for the true priests of Christ. Unless they belie their
consciences as Italians, they cannot continue the accom-
plices of what is now doing at Rome to the injury of our
country's holy cause. Let them, then, courageously take
their stand on the breach in combating for the rights of
the human race; let them go down into the depths of their
hearts, which are an emanation from god; let them take
counsel of their hearts as to their duties; and let them, at
length, spread the Holy Word of the religion of truth
amongst the multitudes. They will feel proud of having
acted well, and a grateful country will inscribe their names
amongst those of the heroic sons by whom it has been re-
deemed.
" Turin, Dec. 5, 1861."

The National Lifeboat Institution has safely re-
ceived from a friend a Bank of England note for £2OO.
Numerous losses have lately taken place of
vessels laden with grain from New York, Montreal, and
Philadelphia. It appears from a return made up at Lloyd's
that between the Ist of September, 1861, and the Ist of
February, 1862, 29 vessels from those ports, with cargoef of
about 500,000 bushels, have been lost, chiefly abandoned at
sea, an6l it is supposed that this total does not represent
more than half of the actual number, The cause of the
disasters is believed to be defective stowage and consequent
choking of the pumps.
BURDER V. HEATH.—In the Judicial Committee
of the Privy Council yesterday, Dr. Phillimore, on the
part of the Rev. Mr. Heath, said he had been instructed by
the reverend gentleman to express his regret that his views
on certain subjects had been misunderstood. Lord Cran-
worth said a feeling of regret was not sufficient ; there must
be a formal revocation. This was refused, and the case pro-
ceeded. At the conclusion of the arguments their lordships
reserved their judgment.

FANATICISM.—An act of extraordinary fanaticism
was committed at Detmold, Westphalia, last week, says
Galignant of the 27th. A father killed his son, a youth of
16, and after cutting off his head laid the body on a pile of
wood, to which he was about to set fire, when some persons
who saw what ho had done, seized on him. The man de-
clared he had done nothing wrong in thus offering up his
only son a sacrifice to the Lord, as Abraham was com-
manded to do,

FATAL A CCTDENT IN THE LONDON DOCKS.—Yes-
terday morning, between 10 and 11 o'clock, a fatal acci-
dent happened :o a man named Jeremiah Corley, aged 40
years, who lost his life under very distressing circumstances.
It appeared that the unfortunate man was engaged on board
a vessel lying in the north quay of the London Docks, when
he by some means lost his equilibrium, fell down the hold,
a distance of 20 feet. He was raised up by two of his corn•.
panions, who found that he was insensible, and bleeding
from a severe scalp wound. He had also sustained a frac-
ture of the skull and other injuries. Ho was removed on
a cradle to the accident ward of the London Hospftal,where
he was seen by Mr. Glynn, the house surgeon, but the poor
fellow expired shortly after his admission.
THE VOLUNTEERS.—We understand that a de-
putation waited upon Sir George Lewis at the War-office
yesterday for the purpose of representing the advantages of
a Royal Commission to inquire into the present state of the
Volunteer force, and that her Majesty's Government have
consented to issue a commission for that purpose. The
deputation was the result of a resolution unanimously
agreed to at a meeting of members of both Houses of Par-
liament, held on Tuesday last in one of the committee-
rooms of the House of Commons, and consisted of the fol-
lowing gentlemen :—The Duke of Marlborough, the Earl
of Shaftesbury, the Earl of Chichester, the Earl of Ducie,
Lord Overstone, Lord Eversley, Lord Henniker, M.P.,
Mr. A. Black, M.P., Mr. A. Mills, M.P., Mr. G. W. Hope,
M.P., Mr. Phillips, M.P., the Hon. A. Kinnaird, M.P.,
Mr. Gregson, M.P., Mr. Bass, M.P., Mr. A. W. Kinglake,
M.P., and Mr. Deedes, M.P. Lord Ellenborough was pre-
vented by illness from being present at the interview.

STEAMSHIP BUILDING ON THE CLYDE.-Messrs.
C. Connell and Co., of the Overnewton Shipbuilding Yard,
have just launched an iron steamer for the Queensland Go
vernment. The steamer, which has been named the Bris-
bane, after the capital of the colony, is being engined by
Messrs. A. and J. Inglis, Whitehall Foundry. Messrs.
Connell have contracts remaining on hand to the extent of
from £30,000 to £40,000. Messrs. W. Denny and Brothers,
of Dumbarton, have completed six models of steamers,
which they propose to show in the International Exhibi-
tion. The principal model in the collection refers to
the Hibernian, one of the Montreal Oaean Steamship
Company's fleet; this model is upwards of six feet
in length, and is so constructed as to show, on one
side, the exterior of the hull, and, on the other, the interior
above the main deck. The Rona, built by Messrs. W.
Denny and Brothers for Messrs. Jardine, Mathieson, and
Co., has made a satisfactory trial trip, having " run the
lights," a distance of 13g knots, ono way in 651 minutes,
and back in 63 minutes. The Rena, which will leave in a
few days for China, is of the following dimensions :
Length, 230 ft.; beam, 33ft.; depth to spar deck, 21ft. bin. ;
burden, 1,220 tons old measurement. At the trial trip her
draught of water was 7ft. Gin. She has a pair of diagonal
engines, the diameter of the cylinders being 46in., the stroke
of the piston 9ft., and the working pressure 351 b.

General Sir Thomas Harto Franks, K.C.8., formerly of
Lower Brook-street, who died at his late residence, Ibstone

fifty-five, was proved in London by his relict, Lady Harto
Franks, solo executrix. It is very brief, was executed in
1859, and contains but two bequests—one an annuity of

proved in London under £250,000 personalty. The attesting

ville, both of Switzerland, and it was executed as far back as
1842, the executors appointed being his two sons, Messrs.
Wm. Antedee Hammond and Geo. Dighton Hammond. The
test at or, who appears to have realised a large fortune as a
stockbroker, has left it entirely amongst his family, as fol-
lows :—To his brother, Mr. George Hammond, the sum of
£lO,OOO, and to each of his two sisters, £5,000. To his
eldest son he has bequeathed his library and othor effects,
and the residue of his entire property is left equally be-
tween his two sons. The will is concise and very clearly

NEW YORK, MARCII 17.
General M'Clellan has issued an address to the
army of the Potomac, in which he says :
" I have held you till now inactive in order that
you might give a death-blow to the rebellion. For-
midable artillery you now have had created, and
the Potomac army is now a real army, magnificent
in materiel, admirable in discipline and construc-
tion, and excellently well armed and equipped. The
moment for action has arrived.

" I know I can trust in you to save the country.
The period for inaction is past. I will bring you
now face to face with the rebels, and only pray that
God may defend the right.

"In whatever direction you may move, however
strange my actions may appear, bear in mind that
my fate is linked with yours. All I do is to bring you
where you wish to be—on a decisive battle-field. It
is my business to place you there. It shall be my
care—it has ever been—to gain success with the
least possible loss. I know that, if necessary, you
will follow me to our graves for the righteous cause.
" God smiles upon us ! Victory attends us yet !
I would not have you think that our aim is to be
attained without a manly struggle. I will not
disguise it from you that you have brave foes to
encounter ; foemen well worthy of the steel that
you will use so well.
" I shall demand of you great and heroic exer-
tion—rapid and long marches—privations perhaps.
We will share all these together, and, when this
sad war is over, we will all return to our homes
and feel that we can ask no higher honour than the
proud consciousness that we belong to the Army of
the Potomac."

Sworn statements have been made by deserters
from the Confederate army that, on the 3d of
March the Confederates had 90,000 men at Ma-
nassas, 25,000 between Mauassas and Acquia
Creek, and 12,000 at Winchester and other points
—in all 150,000 men, who could be concentrated
at Manassas at a day's notice.
Commodore Foote, with several gunboats and a
portion of the mortar fleet, has passed down the

unfounded.

CONSTANTINOPLE, MARCH 26.

The following additional details of the recent
engagement between the Turks and the Montene-
grins were published here to-day :
" The inhabitants of Tranitza, one of the villages
occupied about a month ago by the Montenegrins,
summoned recently to their assistance a body of
Bashi-Bazouks, who were in the neighbourhood, to
deliver them from their assailants.

" These irregular troops, amounting to from 400
to 500 men, had scarcely entered Tranitza when
they were surrounded by a very considerable Mon-
tenegrin force. The Bashi-Bazouks, being thus
surprised, were obliged to surrender without strik-
ing a blow, and were conducted to Cettigne.

" Measures have been taken to expel the Monte-
negrins from the positions which they occupy, and
to retrieve the want of caution shown by the
commander of the Bashi-Bazouks."

FRANKFORT-ON-THE-MAINE, MARCH 28.
The declaration made by the representative of
Electoral Hesse in the Federal Diet yesterday,
expressed the wish of the Elector that the Federal
Diet should fulfil its duty.
The Electoral Government maintains that the
proposition of Prussia and Austria does not state
distinctly whether, when the " Estates " are spoken
of, the first Chamber is meant ; whether also the
expression " constitutional way," used in the
Austro-Prussian note, alludes to the electoral law
of 1831, or that of 1849; and whether the institu-
tions of Electoral Hesse, to be suppressed as at
variance with the Federal Constitution, are to dis•
appear before or after the Electoral Government
shall have come to an understanding with the
country.
