Weiner Zeitung now tells us that the words " to co-
operate" ought to hove been employed. The Ger-
mans in Austria appear to care but little about the
historical rights of the several provinces, but they
are exceedingly-desirous that:all the nationalities
should be properly represented in the lteichsrath,
which they consider the last hope or the empire.
When the " fathers" of the city of Pesth offered
to make Gen. von Benedek an honorary burgher of
the city, he declined the proffered honour, because
the citizens had behaved so badly onTuesday evening.
The General, who had previously allowed the muni-
cipality to care for the maintenance of peace and
order, was so enraged at the conduct of the mob
that he placed a powerfulbody of troops near the
cemetry when the man who was killed in the even-
ing of the 23d inst. was buried. That the soldiers
would, in case of need, have made use of their
weapons cannot be doubted, for Benedek told the
municipal authorities that if any attempt should be
made to create a disturbance he would have recourse
to extreme measures. On the 26th inst. the Bogy-
futur and Magyar Sajto were confiscated by the
police. It does not admit of a doubt that the Go-
vernment made concessions to the Hungarians be-
cause it was afraid they would revolt at the very
first opportunity if it did not. In fact, the reac-
tionary party openly says that the Court would not
have yielded unless it had been obliged to do so.
This Government is extremely anxious to obtain

to have it until it ceases to oppress the Austrian
papers. The Imperial authorities will do well to
recollect that the esprit du corps is so strong that a
Government which systematically illtreats its own
press is sure to be unpopular with all men of the
pen, whatever may be their nationality.

pang for the hearts left at hone that we hear of
flourishing colonies, increasing commerce, more
ships in commission, and a hundred thousand Bri-
tish soldiers in India. 'But, when something might
be done to adapt the work at home to the inevit-
able excess of women, custom, pride, the national
love of independence, the very ambition that sends
all over the globe, and the nature of women it-
self, bring their own difficulties. Women are
necessarily " spoilt" as compared with men.
They have had gentler treatment. Their vanity,
or at least their pride, has been flattered. They have
been led to expect attention, and to depend on the
other sex. Their early lire is to) generally a race,
with one goal. Their gossip, their reading, all the
usages of society point to this. They are permitted,
and even encouraged, to be comparatively idle. If
they do but touch man's occupations, or even share
man's talk, they are soon given to understand they
are out of their sphere. No doubt, too, man is gene-
rally right. But while they are thus bred to be use-
less, and virtually promised that they shall be duly
cared for, that promise is seldom fulfilled should
they happen to miss their main chance. All the
substantial arrangements of life—that is, everything
except the little bit that is done in the drawing-
room, the garden, and the carriage, are for the con-
venience of the other sex. No wonder, then, that
a woman.at thirty is apt to be disappointed, and
the subject of heartless mirth to men who are then
beginning their career, with all their hopes before
them. No wonder, too, that'women so trained and
so disappointed, so prepared exclusively for one
career, which they • miss, should be difficult to

can see so much better than they. But even these
difficulties would be greatly diminished by the

EMPLOYMENT OF WOMEN

There is a class,, once in great honour, whom
knights•errant succoured in distress, for whom
saints built cloisters and aisles, and who are still
conspicuous in legendary pilgrimages and proces-
sions, but now, it would seem, without a patron.
If 11,000 virgins, or' ten times that number,
chose to sail up 'the Rhine in quest of the
Holy Sepulchre, that would not make any percep-
tible reduction in the number of the largest unoc-
cupied class in these isles. When to the "young
women' of England are added widows and married
women of all classes with time on their hands, and
to whom it is a very great object to increase their
incomes, we have an amount of neglected, power,
constrained idleness, and undeserved suffering that
is not to bp foundelsewhere on this earth. Lament-
able as it may be, it is nevertheless true that the
disproportion of the sexes is here far greater than
in any other country, there being about half-a-
million more women than men in this island alone.
As a statistical fact this will make little impres-
sion ; but everybody must be aware of a great pre-
ponderance nf the weaker sex in his own neigh-
bourhood, whatever it may be, and of much in the
circumstances of many to excite a tender and
respectful sympathy. They are ladies without
position, orthey have no object in life and have
nothing to do. Unless they " settle_ tlwy.-a.r.a,-

stranded in solitude, or driven into groups, where
they soon become old-fashioned, odd in their
ways; and obsolete in their talk. If they are
poor—if they have nothing at all7—their case is so
much the worse, worse indeed than can be imagined.
What are they to do ? They have generally been
educated simply to be " ladies." They are not
even properly qualified to be governesses, much less
to exercise any trade or profession. Very few ladies

An order, or regulation, has been drawn up by
the Papal Government with respect to the employes
and public functionaries in the towns and districts
where the Pope's authority has recently been re-
established. A number of classes (chiefly the higher
ones) are designated, the members of which are to be
dismissed if they are shown to have accepted and
continued to serve under the revolutionary Govern-
ment. One of the chief objects of the measure,
which is of slight general interest, is manifestly to
relieve the treasury.

The Giornale di Roma of the 27th of October

says: --

" The Revolutionists grouped at Orvieto, enraged at the
popular manifestations in favour of the Government of his
Holiness, are making every effort to repress them. Thus,
50 Revolutionists went to Bagnozza the other day, and again
set up the arms of the revelation. At Acquapendente,

Palace, substituted the emblems of revolution for thoge of

tion of alarming news, and the exciting of the country-
people to insubordination and hostility towards the Govern-
ment of the Holy Fathar. In a word, these men are doing
all they can to keep up disorder, even in those parts where
the people are glad to be again in the enjoyment of tran-
quillity."

indeed, if left penniless and friendless at the age of
25, would know what to do. When a small propor-
tion thus situated have furbished up and paraded
their small stock of accomplishments, and obtained
" situations" in families, some of one class, some of
another, there remains a crowd for whom no place
can be found. In England, where there is this cruel
excess-of the feeble and more dependent class, there
happens also to -be greater prejudices than any-
where else against their employment. Ladies
themselves prefer shopmen to shopwomen. Very
few women are ever seen in a counting-house. They
•are almost excluded from railway employments.
Many thousands of dame schools have disappeared
under the new and grander systems of education.
Even in the case of female amateurs in any of these
provinces the stronger sex meets them with harsh
criticism and insulting suspicion. Bluestockings,
female artists, authoresses, lady teachers in charity
schools, lady visitors among the poor, lady nurses,
are all stigmatised as poachers, and warned off the
manor. But what are they to do, particularly when
they want not only employment, but food and
clothing for themselves and for those who depend
on their dependence ?
The question, we grieve to say, is one of in-
creasing dimensions and perplexity : and it is a
melancholy fact that it is left to answer itself. Had
we not before us is our yesterday's columns a most
able and eloquent review of some efforts that have
been made from the pen of a woman, we should
despair of seeing anything done. As for the men,
one would suppose that every gentleman in this
island had been ill-used by " the sex," so sullen
and so unanimous do they seem in their determina-
tion to leave half a million women to their fate.
All other classes have their patrons. Paupers,
criminals, offenders, madmen, idiots, orphans, sick,
aged, deaf and damb, blind,—all have the alms-
houses, prisons, reformatories, 'and asylums, and
any woman, of any age or rank, has only to fall
ill, to break a limb, to lose her sight, to commit a
larceny or any other offence, and she is imme-
diately claimed by some philanthropist for his
own. But women, simply as women, standing on
their own merits, are a drug in this country.
They are regarded as social nuisances. They are
in everybody's way; counted at evening parties,
put at their right ages, and discussed by hard
men with one view alone. They cannot help being
what they are, whatever it is. They never have
a choice till it is too late for a choice to be worth
anything. Were a girl at 15 to express a wish to
learn any prQfession, to prepare herself properly
for the duties of a governess, a ladylike trade, an
enterprise of any sort, India or the Colonies, she
would generally be felt to have lost the delicacy
of her sex. Let it be felt still. But why do
'not men do for women what women cannot do for
themselves, and open, new opportunities for the
beings who are forbidden to seek their own for-
tunes ? It is a melancholy fact, that while there
are many institutions in Germany and other coun-
tries to prepare girls for good situations in this
country, and the proper agencies here, there is no
such institution, or good school, or agency, that we
are aware of, for the benefit of English girls. Nay,
since Mrs. Chisholm did so much, there is not even
any institution, or agency, or arrangement of any
kind, for sending English governesses or domestic
servants to our own .iolonies, where the want of
them is great indeed. In only one case mentioned
by the authoress of the paper before us is there
pretence of such a plan. There is an agency in
London for sending to the Canterbury Settlement,
New Zealand, certain proportions of all the classes
wanted there ; but there does not appear to be any
adequate provision for receiving them out there and
finding them proper places—a necessary adjunct of
any such plan.

STATE OF NAPLES.

A letter from Vienna, dated Oct. 29, says :
About 12 hours before the Emperor of Austria re-
turned from Warsaw the following telegram was
sent to the newspapers by the Vienna " Telegraphic
Correspondence-Bureau," which, as need hardly be
said, is under the control of the Imperial' authorities:
" Warsaw, Oct. 2G.
" It is asserted that the meeting at Warsaw was
of a personal character until the very last moment.
During the Conference, which was held on Thurs-
day last, between the Sovereigns and their Minis-
ters, no stipulations were put to paper, and no
kind of agreement was entered into. Not even a
protocol was drawn up."

A letter from Rome, dated Oct. 27, says :—•Gene-
ral Lamoriciere's statement, published in the Gior.•
nale di _Roma could hardly remain unreplied to by
the personage whom it chiefly concerned. Its first
and not unexpected consequence has been the trans-
mission, by M. de Gramont, to Cardinal Antonelli,
of a note couched, as I understand, in extremely
strong terms, and to which it is probable that his
eminence will have some difficulty in replying.
Penned, we may presume, under feelings of irrita-
tion, the severity of its language is said to be such
that it seems not unlikely an attempt may be made
by the Vatican to induce its withdrawal. To apply
for that of M. de Gramont himself is not a step
which, under present circumstances, the Papal Go-
vernment would probably think it wise or useful to
take ; neither is it thought probable that the retire.
ment of M. de Merode is to be expected as a conse-
quence of the serious imputations cast upon him in
the document that has just proceeded from the
French embassy. Should M. de Gramont not obtain
what he holds to be sufficient satisfaction for the
wrong alleged to have been done, we may suppose
that the note will be given to the world, as a reply
to the Lamoriciere article in the Giornale. It ex-
presses, I am informed, the writer's painful sur-
prise that the publication of such an article in the
official journal should have been sanctioned by the
Roman Government, which it accuses, without
much circumlocution, not only of indiscretion in
publishing telegrams (sent through its telegraph-
office, hut not officially communicated to it), but also
of having distorted those telegrams--with an object
declared to be manifest and implied to be un-
worthy. The words colla forza (that France
would interfere by force of arms) are denied
to have been used. The addition is imputed as
intentional to the Papal Government that is
to say to M. de Merode. There was never,
it is added, any question of war between France
and Piedmont. The despatch to the Ancona consul
from M. de Gramont was not transmitted in cypher,
but in ordinary language, so that it might easily
have been known to many persons, but its publica-
tion in the official journal could have proceeded
only from some one in authority. It is supposed
that M. de Merode was the offender, and possibly
Cardinal Antonelli may have known nothing what-
ever of the Lamoriciere article until he saw it in
print. As chief of the Government, however, he
has to bear the brunt of the indignation of M. de
Gramont, who informs him that if his surprise was
great on beholding the publication of a surrep-
titiously obtained telegram it was redoubled when
he found that it had been perfidiously altered and
added to. He protests against the dishonest prac-
Cce of appropriating private despatches on their
transit through the telegraph office, and strongly
denounces, as an aggravation of it, the publicity
given to that addressed by him to M. de Conroy.
He comprehends that a hostile Government, having
obtained possession of an enemy's telegrams, may
(although even this practice is open to criticism),
profit by and reveal them ; but that an ally, abus-1
ing the confidence its honesty ought to inspire,
should thus violate international usages, does strike
him with wonder. In short, the whole document
is said to be exceedingly pungent and calculated
to produce some confusion, and possibly even dis-
cord, in the councils of the Vatican. It is thought
not unlikely that the French Consul at Ancona
may get into trouble for having communicated the
telegram to Lamoriciere, although the latter had
already got it from Merode.

A letter from Naples, dated Oct. 27, says :
There is a report, which has occupied all minds for
the last two days, to the effect that a British ves-
sel of war was to be placed at the disposal of
Francis 11. It was added that instructions would
be given to it to It ke the ex-Royal family to any
place they might desire beyond the limits of the
Kingdom of the Two Sicilies. This report seemed
to receive confirmation from the fact that her Bri-
tannic Majesty's ship Renown left Naples for
Gaeta yesterday morning ; the public voice de-
cided the case directly, and, indeed, it is difficult
to conceive for what other purpose it could have
been sent, as, had any diplomatic arrangements
been on the tapis, I am inclined to think that Ad-
miral Mundy would have gone up. Another im-
portant movement is that of Admiral Persano, who
left last night with a squadron of some strength
for Gaeta, to make some kind of demonstration. I
hear the probability is that the catastrophe is now
near at hand, and that the last of the Bourbons,
after an ineffectual resistance at Capua, is now
about to yield his dominions to his successor. At
the same time, Victor Emmanuel is drawing nearer
and nearer to the capital, and has already passed
beyond Venafro. Fresh troops are continually
arriving, and—that which is a surer indication of
an established order of things under the new
dynasty—Piedmontese gendarmes have made their
appearance in our streets during the last two days.
All are loud in their praises of the conduct of the
Piedmontese troops as compared with that of the
Neapolitans, who, taken in the first place from a half-
civilised peasantry, brutalised by the priests and
corrupted by the Government, committed every kind
of excess with impunity. I have heard interesting
reports of the reception of a deputation by their new
Sovereign, which was rather friendly than regal.
As they were standing before tie King, he said,
" Gentlemen, I am little accustomed to observe
forms, pray be seated." The conversation then turned
upon Naples, about which the King asked a variety
of questions, and wished to know what kind of a
place it was. " Your Majesty," it was answered,
" will find a number of beautiful palaces, with
pienty of hunting and fishing," at which the King
expressed surprise. After remaining in friendly con-
versation for an hour the members of the deputa-
tion rose, saying they would relieve his Majesty of
the trouble of their company, and begged the honour
of kissing his hand. " No, I will not permit it," said
Victor Emmanuel ; " they will make me a King—
not that I wish it. I will shake you by the hand,
and I hope to shake hands with all the Neapolitans on
my arrival." By this frank and un-Royal manner the
" .Re Galantuomo" won the hearts of all who ap-
proached him, and the nation loves him by anticipa-
tion, for few have seen him. At present it is doubtful
when he will enter Naples, though on the grounds of
delicacy there can be no possible hesitation, nor
could there be after he had passed the frontier.
The scrutiny is completed, but is not to be pro-
claimed until the 6th of November ; and the ques-
tion is, will he enter before that fact ? Many seem
to think that his presence is so necessary here that
he may be expected on Monday or Tuesday, after
which he may retire to Caserta for a day or two
before the proclamation is made. Great prepara-
tions are being made for the event ; the Savoy arms
over the Royal palace are in course of execution, a
scaffolding being erected, and a large canvas curtain
concealing the workmen from the view of the people.
Beginning from the Albergo dei Poveri, and so ex-
tending down to the Royal Palace, there are gigan-
tic structures of wood at various intervals, on which
the most remarkable incidents in the history of
modern Italy are to be represented, beginning with
the consignment of his kingdom by Charles Albert
to his son. As to the mode in which this is to be
done I cannot speak, but the ornaments are to be an
historical representation of the life and reign of
Victor Emmanuel. The King will enter Naples by
the wide street in which the Albergo dei Poveri
stands, commonly known as the Feria ; turning off
to the left, a little before arriving at the Museum,
the procession will pass through the Strada Constan-
tinopoli, then go to the Duomo, and after having
heard the Te Deuin, which will be chaunted in full
choir, will enter the Toledo by the Largo Mercatello.
The road then leads straight to the Royal Palace,
near which is erected the skeleton of a gigantic arch.
These will be glorious times for tailors and milliners,
and we were rather surprised at a slight emeute
having been got up during the last two days by
some of the former gentry, who have chosen to
strike for wages. Indeed, some of the people here
appear to hold peculiar views of the consequences of
a new system of
government, and expect that it is
to give plenty
't h out work ; while the better
classes, not less wluureasonable, are famishing after
public employment, and are looking after appoint-
ments as the just rewards of suffering or of opinion.
Indeed, the number of these persons is legion,
and, accustomed as I am to wander through the
Ministerial
offices, I am astonished at the crowds
who day
after day throng the galleries and the
I
ante-chambers of Ministers. The evil is so great
that all public business is paralysed, and I think it
has in some measure been produced by admitting a
very false principle—that past suffering entities
men to official appointments. It cannot, therefore,
be enforced too strongly that capacity and cha-
racter form the sole grounds on which these candi-
dates for employment can be promoted. If, possess-
ing these, they have also been the objects of
persecution, of course that fact would entitle them
to a preference. At present, any man who has been
in the galleys, or in prison, or in exile, considers
that he has a claim to be a Minister of State. This
is not patriotism, but egotism ; and the sooner the
Neapolitans learn this, the better it will be for the
interests of their country.
I have been making the round of the principal
hospitals of the city to-day—that is to say, of the SS.
Aposteli, the Incurabili, the Trinita, and the S. Se-
bastiano, and wherever I made the inquiry I found
the same complaints made of theft, wholesale and
retail. I have already referred to this before, and
though every effort has been made toput a stop it,

In the foregoing telegram it is said that no agree-
ment was entered into by the Sovereigns " during'
the Conference held on Thursday ;" but the two Em-
perors, the Prince Regent, and the three Ministers
had several short interviews,* during which they
had time enough to come to an understanding. The
three Governments have, however, such stringent
reasons forkeeping from the knowledge of the world
the resolutions taken at Warsaw that they are not
likely to transpire until after hostilities have com-
menced on the Po and Mincio. A person of my
acquaintance, who was at Warsaw while the Sove-
vereigns were there, says the Emperor Alexander
was 'ill•pleased with the reception given to him
by his Polish subjects. " Between the latter and
Hungarians there is a secret understanding, and
French agents are supposed to keep up the commu-
nication between the two countries. The Russians
in Warsaw were of opinion that the Emperor Alex-
ander was so coldly received because the Emperor
Francis Joseph was his guest, but the Czar was alone
when the Polish nobles at Wilna refused to sub-
scribe to a ball which it was proposed to give in
his honour. The Emperor of Austria, who was
perfectly well received by the Czar, was in ex-
cellent spirits until he received the news of the col-
lision between the troops and the people at Pesth ;
but he afterwards appeared to be depressed and ill
at ease. Shortly before his Majesty left Warsaw he
had an interview with the Prince Regent of Prus-
sia, and the two Potentates remained together so
long that the departure of the special train was de-
layed a whole hour." My informant, in contradic-
tion to the assertion of the correspondent of the
Vienna Presse, also stated that the Emperor Francis
Joseph opened the ball at Prince Gortschakoff's by
dancing a polonaise with the mistress of the house,
As a matter of course, the Emperor Alexander al-
ways gave the place of honour to his illustrious
guest, but his politeness appeared to produce an
unpleasant impression on the Russian nobles, who
are still extremely hostile to Austria. Almost the
only Russian with whom the Emperor Francis
Joseph conversed at the ball was Count Kisseleff,
the representative of the Czar at the French Court.
The relations between the Prince Regent of Prussia
and the Austrian Monarch appeared to be excellent.
The subjoined extract from a letter, which was
written by the Warsaw correspondent of the Vienna
Presse on the morning of the 26th inst., will serve
to show how carefully every movement of the Mo-
narchs and their Ministers was watched :

"At 9 o'clock yesterday morning the Emperor of
Austria drove to the Belvedere, where the Czar and
the Prince of Prussia reside. Long before his Ma-
jesty—who was received at the entrance by his Im-
perial host—arrived, Count Rechberg had been
walking in the courtyard in earnest conversation
with Gen. von Manteuffel. After a time Count Rech-
berg was called into the palace and a conference
was held. When it was over the Emperor Francis
Joseph came out alone with a blue "heft" (some
leaves stitched together like a copybook) in his
hand, entered his carriage and drove without any
escort to Lazienska. Three-quarters of an hour
later Count Rechberg appeared, and shortly
after there was a great and general movement
among the diplomatists. In the evening
it was related in the theatre that the Emperor
Alexander, " though unwell," would leave for St.
Petersburg the next morning, as the Dowager Em-
press, his mother, was ill and wished to see him."
Several of the Vienna papers continue to affirm
that things are progressing favourably in Hungary,
but it is known that the statement is not quite cor-
rect. The old Conservatives are very unpopular
in Hungary, and Moderate Liberals, such as Von
Eotvos and Von Beak, will neither serve with nor
under them. Men of all parties will, however, at-
tend the " Primatial" Congress at Gran, in order to
draw up an electoral law which shall be in accord-
ance with the spirit of the times and the necessities
of the kingdom of Hungary. The Hungarians in-
tend, as they themselves say, to " utilize" the con-
cessions recently made to them, which probably
means that as soon as the Diet meets a formal pro-
test will be entered against a separation of Croatia,
Sclavonia, the Banat, and the Servian Voivodina
from the Crown of St. Stephen. Many persons, who
a short time since thought it might be well for the
empire at large if the Hungarian Diet relinquished
its right to vote the supplies and to grant recruits
to the Government, have entirely changed their
opinion since they have read tie statute which has
just been given to the province of Styria. They (I
speak of Hungarians) say that if they relinquish
their rights to a Reichsrath it must be to one com-
posed of German and Sclavonic, as well as Hungarian
notables, which cannot possibly he the case with such
a ridiculous mode of election." Since the publication
of the Statutes for Styria and Carinthia there has
been a great revulsion of feeeling in Austria, and
people openly declare that they have no longer
any faith in the sincerity of their rulers. A Graz
correspondent informs the Oesterreichische Zeitung
that " perfect unanimity" prevails in Styria in
respect to the merits of the provincial Statutes.
Everyone loudly condemns them, and great sur-
prise is felt that the Government should, at
such a critical moment, promulgate laws
which cannot but increase the discon-
tent of the non-Hungarian inhabitants of the empire.
In the Statutes for Carinthia it was said that the
Diet was " to give counsel" (Bierath üban) when
provincial laws were framed, but Count Goluchow-
ski must have reconsidered the matter, for the

What hits been done, with great and meritorious
exertion, is but little • compared with the need.
The Registry-offices cannot do much more than
other registries do, for they can more easily mul-
tiply applicants than places. The Victoria Press,
and a Copying-office, find a superior mechanical
employment, with comparative independence,
for some dozen women, and recall the historical
fact that for some generations after the discovery
of printing women were employed, and often
preferred, as " composers" and correctors of the
press. Stephanus, for example, said that he
found them more faithful to the copy and less
liable to be misled by false lights. The greatest
and most meritorious move in this direction is the
employment of women by the Telegraph-offices. It
originated entirely in motives of kindness, and only
succeeded by mach tact and perseverance, in spite
of opposition and obvious difficulties. The Electric
and International Company employ nearly two
hundred young women at their various offices, and
speeches occupying entire pages of this paper have
been transmitted to the North and transferred to
writing in a few hours by young women alone, and
with wonderful accuracy. This success is a great
encouragement to those who have the conduct of
new institutions where men have not yet gained
exclusive possession. It is, however, a still more
important matter, and one lying more in the direct
path of improvement, that women should have the
opportunity of qualifying themselves for the duties
which are either their own, or for which they have
a special aptitude. Training Schools we have.
Ladies' Colleges we have. But, as the paper we
have referred to in yesterday's paper truly points
out,while there is much heroism in this country, ever
ready to show itself on any occasion, and while
that is an element which requires discipline and
education as much as any other, there is a lack
of opportunities. A Caroline Fry, a Mrs. Chisholm,
a Florence Nightingale must go through a long
and rough ordeal before she can fulfil her generous
instincts wisely and effectually. In France and
other countries the Sisters of Charity are something
more than the disembodied Militia, or the solitary
enthusiasts that the name suggests in this
country. They are an institution, they are
State functionaries, they have a province and a
system. In France, too; there are authorised
" Inspectresses" of female prisons, empowered to
visit at all hours and open any cell. As every

moderate compasrisyseethxiowye will beat a man out and
out. Now, there are many works of charity, such
as the superintendence of " homes" and the tempo-
rary reception of young people here or in the colo-
nies, for which women would do vastly better than
men. Everybody must have felt a thousand times
what a pity it is, when there is so much to be done,
and persons so admirably qualified to do it, that
the work and the workers cannot be brought
together.
It would be vain to deny the difficulty of the
task undertaken by the authoress of " A Year'S
Experience in Woman's Work," and her
,eoadjutors.
A very great evil would not exist except from
causes little short of a necessity. We have often
had to notice the beginning of the evil in the dis-
proportionate demand for men involved by the pecu-
liar position of this country. Every year aggra-

The French Government having, since the removal
of its Minister from Turin, declared that it with-
drew its protection from Sardinian subjects in the
Roman States, Mr. Newton, her Britannic Ma-
jesty's Consul at Rome, has received instructions to
take them under his official protection.
It appears that a quantity of ammunition and
military stores, and also some provisions intended
for Lamoriciere's army, and actually shipped to
Ancona, arrived there too late and were sent round
to Civita Vecchia. The ammunition seems to have
been sent first to Trieste by the Byzantine steamer,
but apparently it was thought it might still serve
against Italians, so back it came to the Roman port,
and there it has just been reshipped on board the
steamer Avenir, which arrived from Gaeta a day or
two ago, and returns thither with its cargo of pro-
jectiles. These seem destined to arrive too late
everywhere. Another vessel has come to Civita from
Gaeta, it is said, to load flour, which has also reached
Ancona too late to be useful. The Avenir brought
a Spanish Cabinet messenger. The last direct
steamer from Marseilles brought 150 French sol-
diers, including half a company of armourers, be-
longing, doubtless, to the division last sent here from
France. Some comment has been caused by the
considerable number of guns, large quantities of am-
munition, &e., lately brought from France, and
many persons were disposed to draw omicous in-
ferences from such an accumulation of war material.
I have reason to believe, however, that there is
nothing extraordinary in it. The French explain
it by stating the fact that when a division is moved
it takes with it its complete equipment and full com-
plement of military stores—all that is required, in
short, to make it perfectly efficient for any service it
may be called upon to perform.
About 80 S wiss recruits for the Papal service have
been landed at Civita Vecchia. As far as present ap-
pearances enable one to judge there is little serious
intention of getting up another Pontifical army,
and one would. have thought thesepoortbHeeirlvettansmight have been warned by the fate ofhard

palmy days of Swiss mercenaries are evidently over
in this peninsula, and those who shall come may
expect, should they be engaged and worsted, scanty
quarters, or at any rate little consideration. lam
assured that, in the late engagements between
Lamoriciere's troops and the Piedmontese, the latter
often made a notable difference in their manner of
replying to those who asked for quarter, according
as the accent indicated a native or betrayed a

In one hospital, particularly, the governor said to

Do you know, sir, that, according to the accounts
which have been made up, it has,cost this month a
piastre a day for each man (a piastre being a frac-
tion less than 45.) ?" The Governor told me—and I
fully acquiesce in what he said-_---that the only plan
to be adopted was to sweep off the present Staff,
and introduce as much of the Northern element
as possible. The Piedmontese and Milanese hos-
pital attendants are admirable, though their num-
ber is insufficient. It occurs to me, however, that
innettnnore 'might be thine—With- What materials are
at hand ; and, in the hope that the suggestion may
meet the eye of some who are interested in the
hospitals of Garibaldi, I would propose that an
inspector, a Piedmontese, be chosen from these men
to watch over the organisation of matters in
every ward. Unless this be done, lam persuaded
that the same system of plunder will be continued,
and the same disorder and filth. The Dictator
visited the St. Apostoli last week, and honourable
mention is made of it in a letter written by him
and published in the official journal. Though better
than the others, it is by no means free from the
evils of which I speak. That of St. Sebastiano,
which I have more frequently visited than the
others, and where our countrymen are quartered in
Naples, is more open to complaint, but it cannot be
judged by the same standard, as it is an improvise
hospital, and everything was to be arranged. With
all its defects, however, great ameliorations have
been introduced, and I repeat from the lips of the
English who are there that they are comfortable
and well cared for. Indeed, they are far more con-
tented than the Italians, and while these complain
of everything, ours, with true British pluck, make
the best of all.
To-morrow will be a great day in Naples, for
Padre Gavazzi preaches his -first sermon in Gesu
Nuevo, the principal church of the Jesuits. ' The
subject is to be " Jesus Christ," and after the ser-
vice lae will rebaptize the church by the name of
"Gesu Resorto" (" Jesus Risen"), instead of the old
title, ." Gesu Nuevo" (" the New Jesus"). I expect
there will be great excitement. On Wednesday he
will give the first of his expositions on the Epistle
to the Romans in the Church of St. Sebastiano,
and on Thursday, after having delivered a pane-
gyric on the Italian heroes who have fallen in the
struggle for their country, he will proceed with
all his congregation to the Campo Santo, a little
out of the city, and crown the tombs of the
martyrs with garlands. There is too much attempt
at effect in the whole thing, but it suits, perhaps,
the genius of the people, and is necessary. Friday
is the 2d of November, and is the Feast of the
Dead; on this day all Naples crowds out to visit
the tombs of deceased friends, and eating and
drinking, weeping, singing, and revelling, are all
intermixed with astonishing confusion. Padre
Gavazzi will introduce another scene in the spec-
tacle. At the time lam writing Garibaldi and his
forces have pushed on far beyond Capua, which is
occupied by a small body of the Royal troops, with
the intention of effecting a junction with Cialdini.
Our countrymen have acquired a great name for
bravery, and, though it may be invidious to single
out any from so plucky a corps, I may say that I
have heard the names of both Major Styles and
his brother honourably mentioned. "Major
Styles," said one of his countrymen to me, "is the
coolest man under fire I ever saw." Anothq
officer,, whose pluck and self-command have been
brought to my notice is Edward Courtenay Ha-
worth, Ensign in the 2d company. He had seen
service for several years in the navy, during which
he was honourably mentioned. He will be re-
membered as having rescued a boat which was
serving ammunition in the Baltic.
Brigadier Porcelli, who married a sister of Miss
Flora Macdonald, Maid of Honour to her Majesty,
and who is second in command of the Ist Legion of
Operations, has been promoted to the rank of
General.
Intelligence has just been brought to me that the
bridge over the Volturno was broken down at 10
o'clock, and was not mended at 4 p.m. yesterday.
All the baggage waggons and provisions of the
English Legion are on this side, and our country-
men, as cousin Jonathan would say, must be in a

precious fix.

According to a circular issued yesterday by
Messrs. Seymour, Peacock and Co., the decision regarding
the future contracts for the sale of Peruvian guano had not
been finally strived at up to the moment of the departure of
the last mail. A Government notice, dated " Lima, Sep-
tember 26," announced that the tenders of certain houses
had been accepted upon conditions which the parties ten-
dering were to consider and decide upon on the third day.
The answers would accordingly go in on the 28th of Sep-
tember, the day the mail left, but they had not been re-
ceived when the packet sailed. The conditions in question
it is said, comprised important modifications in the terms o
the agencies, and the general impression among mercantile
circles in Lima was that they would not be agreed to. The
contracts now running do not expire till December, 1861,
and the contemplated arrangements will not take effect,
therefore, until after that date.
