vent any printer employing a compositor under
335. per week, for that was the minimum rate at
which they were allowed to work, and he believed
many would be glad to be allowed to work for less
than that amount : and why, he-asked, should the
public be deprived of the benefit of getting books
cheaply printed, and why should publishers be de-
prived of a fair profit, because the printers of
London had hitherto, by a powerful combination,
been able to force up the rate of wages? So far
from its being any disadvantage to the public, it
would be a benefit to them if the female labourer
could print as well and do the work as regularly.
It would be a positive gain to all classesof the com-
munity, and so far as the men themselves were con-
cerned he most entirely coincided with what the
chairman had just stated as to the way in which
wages w ere spent, and as to the way in which va-
cant hdurs were spent by that class. He believed a
little wholesome competition would do much good
to the journeymen compositors of London. There
were, no doubt, many admirable exceptions, but
the compositors were by no means the best speci-
mens of the working classes in London. They
drank a good deal, and spent a good deal of time in
a way which it was very desirable to. avoid ; and,
wishing them well, and desiring to see them lead a
moral and respectable life, and following their occu-
pation in a proper way, he should be glad to see
that the competition introduced by. Miss Faithful
had the effect of compelling them to work for lower
wages and in a more regular way.

Yesterday afternoon the frigate Radetzky and
the sloop Dandolo returned to Pola, where all the
Austrian vessels of war, with the exception of three
or four small steamers, are now assembled. The
large vessels in the port of Pola are the ship of the
line Kaiser, the steam-frigates Donau and Radetz-
ky and the frigate Schwarzenbercr. Several ,of the
stronger vessels belonging to thee Austrian Lloyd
Company are to be armed with heavy guns, but
English naval officers say they can render no great
service if opposed to ships built expressly for war-
like purposes. On Sept. 26 the German Catholic
Association, which was holding a sitting at Prague,
was about to petition the Pope to quit Rome and
come to Germany, when it received an authentic
communication that his Holiness was resolved on
no account to quit Rome.

their having crossed the river in that direction. In
consequence of this information everybody wms on

But the whole day passed without anything occur-

direction of the point where the Neapolitans had
crossed, and one of these, commanded by Gen. Bixio,
which started from Maddaloni, actually dicll meet

withdrew at the approach of our reconnaissance,

A LBERT and MEDICAL LIFE ASSURANCE
COMPANY, 7, Wat:ell2o:plF,e, Pall-mall, London, S.W.

From this movement it would seem th.tt the
enemy had some intentions against our right
wing, or, perhaps, to threaten us on that side in
order to try and make a movement on another. The
fact is, our relative positions have changed. Until
lately all reasons prompted us to advance as quickly
as possible, in order not to leave time to our adver-
sary to organize and strengthen himself. It was
the rapidity of our movements which helped us so
much in our operations. During the last two days
this has been changed. Cialdini has crossed the
frontier. He has passed Teramo, and is now has-
tening down through the Abruzzi. If he looses no
time, as from his operations in the Romagna we
may sapposethat he will not, he may be in the flank
and rear of the Neapolitans in a week, and then
these latter will be in a regular trap. Besides this,
Fanti, according to the last accounts, was likewise
close to the froo tier in the direction of Rieti, so that
the Neapolitans are threatened on three sides. It
is clear enough that under these circumstances our
interests command the defensive. With the ex-
ception of a few battalions of Austrians and Swiss,
the rest who fight against us are Italians, and our
object is not to destroy them, but, on the contrary,
to preserve them as intact as possible, in the hope
that they may one day fight for, as they have done
hitherto against, Italy. By keeping on the defen-
sive until Cialdini, and perhaps Fanti, arrive, they
may be placed in such a position as to find that all
resistance is useless.
But so far as this change of circumstances makes
it advisable to keep on the defensive, so it is abso-
lutely necessary for the Neapolitans to do something
in order to get out of this position ; and it is more
than probable that the movements they have been
making for the last few days are made with that in-
tention. The most probable thing seems to be that
they are preparing a general attack against us
before Cialdini can come up with his troops.
According to all accounts they have altogether
from 30,000 to 40,000 men, and if they could im-
plicitly count on all these they would bo formid-
able indeed, for they are amply provided with
artillery and cavalry. As for these two latter
arms, they can reckon on them, and especially the
former; but it is different with their infantry.
The Cacciatori are the safer among these ; but the
line regiments, with few exceptions, feel otherwise.
In spite of all the false information to which they
have been treated, they seem still to have the vague
notion that whoever comes over is allowed to go
home, and this is the only wish and longing which
most of them have. While they were about Capua.,
and had in front a river most difficult to ford even
in the best places, it was exceedingly awkward to
satisfy this longing to go home; but if they once
get a chance it is more than probable that they will
freely take advantage of it. Thus the other day,
the very night of the day on which they re-occupied
Cajazzo, 15 of them deserted in a body, although
they had to cross the river.
Taking this into consideration, as well as the
necessity not to kayo Capua and Gaeta exposed, and
at the same time 'to protect their line of operations,
they can scarcely bring more than 20,000 or 25,000
men against us for an attack.
I need scarcely tell you that all these movements
have brought out Garibaldi from Naples. Whenever
he has a chance of escaping from governing and the
atmosphere of political intrigues, he hastens to take
advantage of the opportunity, and comes out among
his soldiers, where he feels his real element to be.
For the first few days he took up his quarters at
Maddaloni, but now he has come up to Caserta. He
goes out daily before sunrise to the outposts in one
or another direction, but his favourite resort is the
heights above St. Angelo—above all, the spur of the
Monte Tifata., which runs out close to the river's
edge near the Scafo di Formicola. Thence you en-
joy a most extensive view over a great part of the
river line above and below Capua. The country lies
before you spread out like a map. But to get there
is a serious affair. There is not even a goat or sheep
track which you could follow—you must make
your way through bushes and thorns, over stones
and slippery grass. But if you are once at the top
you are repaid. You get a bird's eye view of all
the enemy's positions from Cajazzo to Capua, and
far behind it on the road to Rome. They cannot
move a man without his being perceived, as
the only road of communication runs close to the
river. It is not surprising that the Neapolitans
should be rather dissatisfied with such curiosity,
and they are continually " at it" with their guns.
They have two batteries to protect the passage, al-
though they have taken the precaution to remove
the bridge of boats which was there ; the have
some rifled guns on the spur opposite, called the
Palumbara; they have another battery lower down
to defend the passage of Triflisco, four guns higher
up to protect the ford between Scafo di Formicola
and Scafo di Cajazzo, and two others at this latter
place. So you see they have taken their precau-
tions. Nor are these guns idle; on the eontrNaryot
there seems to be abundance of ammunition.

Naturally, is regular practice with those
,
guns opposite; but, in spite of their good aim, we
have hitherto to regret no one. Yesterday, above
all, it was as if they had known who was there—a
never ceasing salute of shot and shell, so that you
might have thought that there was an engagement
going on.
In the meantime, if the Neapolitans have done
their best to collect a respectable army against us,
on our side likewise all has been done to get up our
available forces. Besides those which made the
campaign through Calabria, and which have all
come up, other troops which were left at Messina
and Palermo have been summoned, and all the
Sicilian troops are now collected in one body,
commanded by General H. Maza. Besides these
the continent of Naples begins to furnish its
contingents. Two bodies of Calabrese have already
joined, and others are expected. The Calabrese

The Rev. Dr. BEGG said he hoped they would not
be all held committed to the rem,* that it was
desirable to diminish the wages printers, or
those of any other class in the cora tr' • ity, or that
a man necessarily drank more becau le had more
wages; for,, for his, part, he believed that poverty
as often drove a man' to the whisky shop. as excess
of wages. He was sure, however, that all intelli-
gent printers would ageee that if the ladies could
take the advantage of openings in that or any other
lawful branch of industry in this country, they were
perfectly free to do, it. (Hear, hear.)
Mr. M'LAREN said he thought their lady friends,
in their anxiety to be candid, had made admissions
which they were not at all required to make, and
which might not turn out to be true, as to the wages
of men being diminished by female labour. At all
events, that was a debateable question in political
economy, and one not to be settled here. If woman
could find employment anywhere it was clearly her
right to take it, without inquiring what effect her
doing so would have on the wages.of other people.
His own opinion was different from what had
been expressed, for he did not think the intro-
duction of female labour would have the effect
supposed. This was not a stationary coun-
try, but one rapidly increasing in population
and wealth, and increasing faster in wealth than
-in population. They required more books now
than they formerly did; the demand was year by
year increasing, and if female labour should come
in in merely moderate quantities and supply this
extra demand it would not lessen the price of
labour. _ _

STATE OF 4USTRIA.

A letter from Vienna, dated. Oct. 2, says :

Although the publication of the debates in the
Reichsrath is not yet completed, the Vienna papers
have begun to criticise the conduct of the leading
members of that assembly, and it is already clear
that they are as dissatisfied with the plebeian union-
ists as they are with the aristocratic Federalists.
The object of the latter is very obvious to the nation
at large ; but it would appear that it is not so to the
Emperor and his official advisers, for they are said
to look with a favourable eye on the programme of
Counts Clam and Sees:hen, which, as you are aware,
is that of the majority. Should his Majesty accede
to the wishes expressed by almost all the noble
members of the Reichsrath, the principle of the
unity of the empire will exist but in name, as the
Reichsrath, in which all the provinces are to be
represented, will be the only bond of union. A
noble speaker in the Reichsrath observed that the
person of his Majesty " is the do which unites the
Crown lands forming the empire ;" but the remark
will cease to be correct if the Emperor grants too
much power to the Provincial Assemblies. The
majority in the Reichsrath claims for the several
Diets the right of legislation, but the empire will be
a very tower of Babel if such a concession should
be made. The Government is extremely reserved as
to its intentions, but the non-Hungarian provinces
may, perhaps, be satisfied if they are allowed to
have complete autonomy in internal matters; and
can send a certain number of representatives to a
Reichsrath endowed with the right of legislation.
As to the Hungarians, nothing is likely to satisfy
them but the restoration of their ancient rights and
privileges, and a return to the "personal union."
With the exception of M. Meager•, who expressed
his opinions in the most straightforward way, the
members of the minority in the Committee of
'Twenty-one played a very sorry part. In its pro-
gramme it spoke in favour of representative insti-
tutions "to be granted by the Emperor of his own
free will ;" but towards the end of the political
debate it ate its own words, inasmuch as it
directed its leader (Dr. Hein) to state that it
had never wished to have a modern constitu-
tion, &c. The declaration produced an unpleasant
impression on all parties in the Reichsrath, and
made the German part of the population of Austria
hang its head for very shame. The Hungarians
and Slaves had some of their ablest men in the
Reichsrath, but the German element in Austriti
was not properly represented. It is reported that
the Reichsrath will meet again in a couple of
months, but the thing is almost impossible, as
several of its members cannot afford to quit their
usual occupations, and come to live at their own cost
in this expensive capital. Before M. Meager left
this city for Cronstadt he received very many ova-
tions. Deputations from the provinces waited on
him, the members of the provincial press forwarded
addresses to him, and several Protestant communi-
ties wrote to thank him for having acted as the
champion of the distressed and oppressed. Among
the distinguished persons who visited M. Meager
were the Ministers Counts Goluchowski and Nad-
asdy and M. von Plener, the Chief of the Finance
Department. The latter openly professes to consider
a representative form of Government necessary to
the well-being of Austria, and it is morally certain
that nine-tenths of the population of Austria are of
the same opinion. There are, however, many per-
sons in this city who have a repugnance to the idea
of a Central Diet, simply because they are unable
to forget some of the elements of that constituent
body which was assembled here in 1848. On the
higher benches on the right of the President sat the
representatives of the Ruthenes (Non-united
Greeks), who were brought from Gallicia, by the
late Count Stadion to support the Government,
which duty they performed as well as if they had
understood what was said, as they remained seated
or rose with the Count whenever anything was put
to the vote.

As the " extraordinary preventive measures" are
continued in Hungary, Istria, and Venetia, it must
be supposed Government has acquired proofs that
there has been an unlawful correspondence between
persons residing in those provinces and the revolu-
tionary party in Italy. The persons arrested in the
Banat, who belong to the better classes of society,
were fetched from their beds at night and sent
without delay to the fortress of Josephstadt, in
Bohemia. On the 28th of September a well-dressed
man was arrested, and marched in irons from Pesth
up to the fortress at Ofen, for having attempted to
introduce a parcel containing prohibited books into
the country. Travellers who yesterday came to this
city from Hungary say that the political excitement
is exceedingly great in all parts of the kingdom, but
they have expressed to me their conviction that
there will not be a general outbreak " unless some
impulse is given from without." By, attempting to
introduce the Jesuits into Agram the Archbishop,
M. Haulik, has given great offence to the inhabi-
tants of the city, and lost the high character for
tact and moderation which he had long enjoyed.
The Municipal Council, " being afraid of, popular
tumults," has petitioned the Ban to inform the high
authorities that the inhabitants of the capital of
Croatia trust the seminary for nobles, and the
church of St. Catherine, will not be placed under
the superintendence of the Jesuits. A petition to
the same effect has also been presented to the
Archbishop, who will probably attend to it, as he
must well know that the present is not an oppor-
tune moment for trying experiments in Croatia.
Large quantities of grain are still purchased for
English firms in Hungary, which is here considered
a proof that the harvest in England is likely to be a
very poor one. Ten days or a fortnight ago but
few orders were received from England to purchase
wheat, but one of the principal corn-factors yester-
day told me that the demand is now almost as great
as it was three weeks or a month since. The crop

are for the most part still in their national
dress, 'with the well-known picturesque, but awfully
uncomfortable pointed hat balanced:on their heads
with their black cotton-velvet jackets and trousers,
and not a few of them still with their native sandals.
But they will not remain so long either, for the pic-
turesque is fast disappearing from Garibaldi's force.
With very few exceptions the red shirr, the charac-
teristic garment of our army, has been replaced by
the lees pioturesque.lut much more amicable gray'

wise high in
tradictory statements, and in ' the -absence of
true organs of public opinion, it- is difficult, not
to say impossible, to a man who Comes fresh into
this country to single out the men most fit for
the work. There is no doibt that the majority of
the Cabinet, in the expectation of a speediannexa
tion to Piedmont, have not displayed that energy
which times like the present require, and that the '
lethargy which pervaded all public offices has given
cause for discontent. But these are all transient '
clouds, and it is not these partiai or total chang6
of men which are likely to influence the general
march of affairs. The Italian idea of unity manifests
itself stronger daily, And all .those notions of
Northern and Southern Italian kingdoms recede
more and more into the shade. Here, as everywhere
else, the majority have understood that the union
of Italy under a proved constitutional and truly
national Sovereign is the only possible way of in-
suring the freedom of the different lands of Italy—
it is the true guarantee against any return to the
old system, which is universally detested, and the
remembrance of which excites horror in all minds.

In spite of the obstacles which petty jealousy and
personal considerations throw in the way, all points
to a speedy realisation of this wish. On Tuesday
last Count Pallavicini went. back to Turin with
Garibaldi's answer to the King's letter, and probably
in a few days it will he possible to see the solution
tolerably clear.

SEPTEMBER 2S.

Yesterday, late in the afternoon, there was a little
encounter near the river Volturno. A small number
of Neapolitans came across the river at a ford near
Limatola, which lies in a due southerly direction of
Cajazzo. Our outposts on that point belonging to
the Medici Division, having observed them, came
down, and, after exchanging a few shots with them,
attacked them at the point of the bayonet, and
drove them across the river. Close to the other
bank of the river begins one of the Royal preserves,
called Selva Nuova, a thickly-wooded height which
•concealed the fugitives as soon as they had passed ;
the skirmishers on the other side began opening
fire, and our outposts withdrew to their position on
the hill.

Although no further signs of an offensive inten-
tion were visible, all precautions were taken for a
possible attack. The troops were un'aer arms at
dawn, and strong patrols sent out to reconnoitre ;
but nothing was seen.
At the outposts at St. Leucia a curious instance
occurred of the simile of the old warhorse that hears
the sound of the trumpets Ono- of. the Hungarian
Hussars had tied his horse to a --Carriage, where,it
stood as peaceably as if it had been of wood. It
had belonged to the Neapolitan cavalry, and had
been one of the trophies of the surrender of Ariano,
and had done sufficient service lately to behave
quietly. No one paid any attention to it, when all
at once the enemy's cavalry, stationed on the opposite
bank of the river, sounded the" Assembly." Before
any one could impede it the old charger tore away
the bridle by which he was attached, gailopped to-
wards the river with the hussar after him. Arrived
at the river, the horse without hesitation jumped
into it and swam across it ready to obey the call.
This morning the Marchese Pallavicini arrived
with Victor Emmanuel's answer to Garibaldi's let-
ter. Garibaldi as usual was out in the direction,of
rSan Maria and:San Angelo, and received the letter
there. The answer was not so satisfactory as Was
expected, yet the verbal messages which Pallavicini
brought are of a nature to modify the impreisiOn
which might be produced by the letter.

SEPT. 29, MORNING.

Nothing new. No movement on the part of the
Neapolitans. They have sent troops towards the
passes of the Abruzzi to stop the way to Cialdini;
so it seems that they are to face both forces by
which they are threatened. When they made their
movement against our right it seemed as if they had
some idea of getting a lit tie air and room on that
side—that they perhaps wanted to throw at 'least
part of their forces into the Prineipate Ulteriore,
and organise there some reactionary movement, as
they have tried once before, But this seems.pot
to be the case ; they have concentrated all their
forces on the Volturno, with Gaeta to fall back
upon. If you look at the map you will see that
the Volturno comes down from the north, makes a
sweep round the mountains to the north of Cape,
separating them from the Matise range. As

the
height of Cajazzo the river makes a sudden w p
to the west, and runs down in windingsnumerous
