ITALY.

Accounts from Naples announce that the Sove-
reign PONTIFF arrived in that city at 4 o'clock, P.M.,
on the 4th instant. The KING, the Royal Family,
and the Court were in attendance on his HoLisixss.
Letters from Rome to the sth instant inclusively,
State that the crisis was every day becoming
more imminent. Many persons feared lest the
POPE would ultimately place himself under the
Austrian flag in the Legations. Of this, however,
common sense would seem to indicate the impossi-
bility, for France now being in possession of Rome,
the Pontificial Government will hesitate very long
indeed before they break with the French Govern-
ment. Besides there is too strong an indication of
an understanding between the Austrian and French
Cabinets to allow of any such anticipation.
Rumours still continued prevalent at Gaeta that
Russia was prepared to take upon itself the Roman
loan.
General REGNAULT DE SAINT JEAN D'ANGELY was
making arrangements to return to Paris.
The French troops at Rome were in excellent
health, and prepared for any emergency.
It appears somewhat doubtful whether GARIBALDI,
after all, has been to Venice, and it is certain that he
has not escaped acrossed the Adriatic. The celebrated
adventurer is at present in the Sardinian dominions,
a letter from Genoa announcing his arrival on the 7th
inst. in that city. It appears that he reached Genoa
in a fishing-boat, accompanied by a single volunteer,
at Porto Venero, on the sth inst. Thence he pro-
ceeded to Chiavari, through Spezzia, where he was
recognized by the people, and a considerable crowd
assembled to greet him. The Military Intendant
requested him not to create a disturbance, but to
remain at Chiavari until he should demand instruc-
tions from his Government. A captain of gendarmes
was sent from the capital to escort GARIBALDI to
Genoa, where he is to remain until he can find an
opportunity of quitting Italy.
The number of refugees at Genoa was increasing
daily. SALICETO appears to have escaped to Marseilles.
The Augsburg Gazette of the Bth quotes letters
from Milan, stating that Field-Marshal RADETZET

THE COAST OF AFRICA.
(BY ELECTRIC TELEGRAPH.)
PORTSMOUTH, FRIDAY MORNING.

Her Majesty's ship Philomel, Commander John-
son, arrived in the night from the West Coast of
Africa. She sailed from Loanda on the 16th of
July, Ascension on the Ist of August, and Sierra
Leone on the 9th of August. She lost her late
Commander, William Cotterill Wood, of fever, on
the 26th of May, off Ambriz. The squadron
on the coast is generally healthy, the slave
trade continuing on the increase. She spoke off Cape
de Verds the John Parker, of Boston, for California ;
two days from the Lizard exchanged colours with
the Marquis of Bute. She left the Centaur steam-
frigate, with the broad pennant of Commodore Fan-
shawe, at St. Paul de Loanda ; all well on board.
The Philomel took a prize off Ambria on the 10th
of July ; the Firefly took two in the early part of the
same month.

The Dolphin brigantine is expected home next.

The boats of the Centaur, commanded by Lieut.
Boys, drove on shore, after a spirited chase of nine
hours, a large piratical felucca of three masts, 93 feet
long, off Ambriz.
Her Majesty's ship Ranger arrived at Sierra Leone
from England on the 7th September.
