V sAVVvvs...
" This morning I was at the camp, and saw the
English Legion receive its first baptism of fire. I
went by rail to Caserta, where I heard the cannon
firing near Capua. On arriving at Santa Maria I
found all the troops under arms, and the heavy
guns unlimbered in front, ready for action. Every-
where on the road to St. Angelo I saw traces of the
great battle of the Ist instant—trees cut down and
pierced with shot, and the ground torn up by the ,
tramp of cavalry and artillery. In company with
some officers of the Agamemnon (91 guns), I
climbed the lofty bill of Irfata, above St. Angelo,
where we found Garibaldi himself and five or six
members of his staff. Irfata is the Di.3tator's
favourite position for observing the enemy. From
the crest of the hill you can look right into Capua,
and see Gaeta in the distance ; before you is spread
out the whole line of operations down to Caserta
and Maddaloni, with the Voltarno winding
through the plain. Standing here Garibaldi can
see every movement of the enemy. While we were
climbing the hill the firing was incessant, and a
shell aimed at Garibaldi burst about 60 yards front
our feet. We were in hopes of seeing some fight-
ing, nor were we disappointed. About ten o'clock
the Neapolitans in force attacked the position at
St. Angelo. They marched before the camps before
Capua towards the Garabaldian lines. The
English Legion, which reached Naples last
Monday, only arrived at the camp at
nine o'clock, an hour before the fight began. They
marched from Santo Maria to St. Angelo, and at
once took up their position on the extreme front to
the left, and next to Capua. They were imme-
diately attacked. The legion, commanded by
Colonel Peard (Garibaldi's Englishman), received
their enemies with a shout, and drove them back
in con fusion under the very walls of Capua. The
great difficulty of the officers was to restrain the
impetuosity of their men and to keep them back.
Foiled in their attempt to break Garibaldi's line,
the Neapolitans now commenced shelling their
victors, when Colonel Peard withdrew his men
under cover. All these operations were anxiously
watched by Garibaldi, and soon after Colonel Dow-
ling arrived and gave the General an account of
the fight. He said the men had behaved splendidly.
I regret to say that Lieutenant Tucker, the cor-
respondent of the Illustrated Ttnies or ews, was
killed. He only received his commission this
morning, and in a few hours afterwards he was a
corpse. The Neapolitans left between 50 or 60
killed and wounded on the field, and did not ven-
ture out again to-day. They had evidently got
more than enough of it. I see Mr. Edwin James
has been alarming the public with accounts of
anarchy, robbery, and I don't know what else
besides in Naples. I can only say, from my expe-
rience, that the anarchy exists only in Mr.
James's imagination. The most perfect order
reigns in Naples ; life and property were never so
secure ; you may go for miles around Naples
without a pistol or weapon of any kind ; and as
for the roads being infested by brigands, I must
say that the most brigandish looking thing I have
seen since I came to this city is a portrait of Mr.
Edwin James himself in the last number of the
Illustrated London News.

valiant young men, late the Pope's Irish Brigade; a 8---/
should owe their deliverance from their present
unhappy position to the joint interference of the
British and Sardinian Governments. The journal
first indicated has this morning a tirade on the
subject, the only meaning derivable from it bel;.ng •
that some occult design to insult and injure Ire-
-1,1,nd lurks beneath the supposed benevolent in,.
tentions of the Governments referred to. Whetz
the ,-t,cktement was first made that the British Go-
vernm,l.rit intended to interfere in the matter, it
was pero:nptorily denied by the Yews, and in itg
publication: of this day it characterises as " a base
lie and an ,impotent trick" an announcement,
through the teLegrapb, that the Cork Examiner
contained a letter from the Sardinian Consul-
General in Lorlei], 3,,-Idressed to the father of one
of the Irish prisoners, _row in the hands of the
Sardinians, stating that b:rra ngements had been
made between the Sardinian and British Govern-
ments that those prisoners sh')uld be sent to Ire-
land at the joint expense of those Governments.
Nevertheless, it is quite a fact that the letter ap-
Ipeared in the Examiner, and I am disposed to
believe, notwstlistanding the News, that the Sar-
dinian Consul has not lied and meant no trick,
impotent or otherwise. The letter is as
foll6ws :
" Sardinian Consulate-General.
"London, 31, Old Jewry, Oct. 23.
" Sir,—l hasten to inform you that the Sardinian
inquiries,
Ambassador, in answer to my nquiries, has replied
that arrangements have been made between the
Sardinian and British Govanconts that the Irish
prisoners shall be sent to Irelaad at their joint
expense, and that they will arrive there very
,shortly. He does not think, therefore, it would be
`Nizrth while to send your son any money.
4,, I have the honour to be, Sir, your obedient
sereNelnt (for the Sardinian Consul-General),
" ROBERT A. HEATH, Vice-Consul."
The ,examiner also publishes the following special
telegram-
"Five htLndred men of the Irish Brigade arrived
in Paris yeste."day on their way home to Ireland,
and may reach Cork within 24 hours after the
publication of this` announcement.. Those who be-
lieve that the brigade have maintained the honour
of their country by their courage and fidelity should
be ready to receive them with every mark of respect.
Hospitality and comforts are necessary to their
present condition. The local committee, assisted
by others, should at once prepare for their honour-
able reception ; lodgings and clothes are essential
in the first instance, and Cork should contribute
both at its own cost."

" Another death by fire" is a common h e ading by
which modern readers are familarised v,e;th the
almost daily holocaust of women and cleildren,
sacrificed by the combustibility of their dres and
the expansion of their crinoline. The Registrar-
General, who accurately:exhibits these integers of
suffering and death and displays their incredibfo
sum-total, records above three thousand deaths
from fire, of which some hundreds might have been
averted by the adoption of the simple expedient,
which cannot be too preesingly urged upon the
female mind, of adopting in the laundry the use of
one of those powders which render clothing non-
inflammable, As we write this, an inquest is being
livid at the London Hospital on the body of a child,
bur nt alive by her clothes catching light at the
household fire ; and we understand that many pa-
tier's are at this moment living in the metropoli-
tan hospitals more or less seriously injured by ac-
cidents ,arising from a similar cause. This is a
very serinis evil, and one which cannot be regarded
without a regret deepened by the reflecticrn that
such accidents' are preventible. The means pro-
,
posed are simple and efficient. We have alreatiy
more than once elplained them. In the Queerr's
laundry they have. been adopted since the terrify-
ing accident by which the dress and person of the
Princess Royal were scorched by ignition of her
sleeve at a candle. Here is no want, then, of
pointed moral and high example, But it is difficult
to awaken the mind to the necessity of providing
against contingencies which are distant And uncer-
tain. Until the moment of the catastrophe, nothing
seems more unlikely than [that it should oc-
cur. Nevertheless, all ranks have furnished their
quota to the number of victims. Princesses, coun-
tesses, court ladies, ballet-girls, the decrepid and
the young, rich and poor, swell the list, which is
thus passed over with indifference, or with a
thoughtless shudder that leaves no further trace.
The solutions which . are the best hitherto pro-
duced for the purpose are those of tungstute of soda
and sulphate of ammonia. The former is prefer-
able for woven fabrics, since it allows the iron to
pass smoothly, whereas other salts do not.. The
able chemists, Messrs. Versmann and Oppeoheim,
who introduced these salts, as the result of their
investigations, have recently given some plain di- 4
rections in their employn2ent, which in the interests
of practical persons we trayseribe:-4"lhe solution
which does not become clear must be made with
warm water, and should be well stirred. A sheet
lof linen is then soaked in it and. dried. The ar-
ticles of dress or curtains, after bein,g well starched,
blued, and rough-dried, are saturated in the solu-
tion, then rolled in the above piece of linen, and
ironed as usual." The salts are being sold, since
we have repeatedly drawn attention to tl;cm, under
the title of the " Ladies' Life Preserver ;" but they
are simply the substances which we name.
The extraordinary losses of life and property
very recently occasioned by fire in this city have
nattirally suggested the investigation of the appli-
cability of these salts to the purpose of rendering
timber non-inflammable.. This is 'Very possible ; but
the use of sulphate of ammonia for this purpose by
the best process would cost about ls. 2d. per cubic
foot of timber, and this is almost prohibitive
of for
or
eneral use. There are, however, many other s
suggested besides the finishing of woven fabrics to
which it may be advantageously applied. Th

swept our coasts oil the ad curt,, there are many instances 'f

none more deserving of being chronicled than the follow-

were with their crafts in the Sound of Scalps, and adjacent
creeks in Skye. About midnight the wind commenced to
blow very sharp from the south, gradually increasing to
gale from the S.W., accompanied by heavy showers of
rain, A slight lull took place about two a.m., and a few
minutes afterwards the firmament seemed to open hit
the N.W., and immediately thereafter a heavy rumbling
noise was heard, like the discharge of artillery in the dis-
tance. All were at this critical conjuncture in dreadful
suspense, but firmly and handily making snug their boats,
as they had no alternative, in their exposed situation, but
to face the storm, which they knew from the catspaws now
rising on the sea was fast approaching. Not many mi-
nutes afterwards it blew a perfect tornado from the N.N.W.,
the sea rising mountains high, and the tempest driving
along the tiny fleet like so many hinds followed by hounds
in full chase. Sonic of them got into shelter and were
preserved, others were cast ashore and broken in
