MARSALA.

Marsala, where Garibaldi has landed, is a port of
Sicily, situated about 95 miles from Palermo. It be-
longs to the province of Trapani, which extends, as
well as the province of Palermo and that of Messina,
along the north coast of the island. Marsala carries
on a large business in the wine which bears its
name; it also deals in corn, fruit, cotton, and salt
The population is about 20,000. It possesses a
number of foreign commercial houses, the most
important of which are English. It was a
flourishing place under the Romans, and its
prosperity was maintained until the close of
the 15th century. In 1532 the port was filled
ip by order of Charles V. to prevent the fleets of
SJliman 11. from getting possession of it. It has ,
naver completely recovered from that disaster, and
vessels of large tonnage can't enter. The attack on
Marsala indicates the plan conceived by Garibaldi.
He carries the struggle on the north coast of the
island, where all the strong places are situated, and
approaches those positions, which, if seized on by
him, will give decisive results. On the other hand,
the Neapolitan army appears to be prepared for an
energetic defence. It had received information of
the attack, and a good road had been formed to
unite the towns on the coast, so that the concentra-
tion of troops might be readily and promptly
effected.

FRANCE.
PARIS, MAY 15.

The rumour that the Emperor was to have an in -
.erview with the Prince Regent of Prussia towards

the end of this month does not appear to rest on
any good authority.

Three or four persons have been sent to England
within the last few days to buy for the Sardinian
Government a supply of horses for the army. It is
said the French Government is also buying.

The Grand Duke Nicholas will remain in Paris
wily 48 hours. The Count of Montmolin and his
brother, who probably have arrived by this, will
make no stay, but proceed forthwith to England.

THE CHANPIONSHIP.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE TIMES.
Sir,—ln answer to Mr. Heenan's letter which
appeared in the Times of this day, I beg, first, to
observe that I have not been hiding myself as he
would insinuate. I called, with my backer, at the
office of Bell's Life in London on Tuesday, the Bth
of May. I told him that my backer and I were
going out of town until Saturday. I visited Tun-
bridge on Wednesday, Maidstone on Thursday,
Tunbridge and Hastings on Friday, and Brighton
on Saturday. My movements were well known,
and a letter or telegram addressed to " Tom Sayers,"
or " The Champion of England," would have found
me at either of those places, but none came to
hand.
The ridiculous suggestion, put forward by Mr.
Heenan, of mutilating the belt, I laugh to scorn,
and could afford to treat it with the contempt it
merits, but that some good friends of mine—of the
Peace Society—have, innocently enough,patronised
the notion.
The belt, sir, I have fought hard to obtain— 1
striving for that prize I have within the last three
years defeated some of the best men of my country
—and, without intending to cast the slightest slur
on my gallant opponent, I say that no American
citizen, nor foreigner from any other land, however
flowery and sunny, shall bear it, or the buckle of it,
from Old England while my arm and heart are ca-
pable of defending it. lam as ready asMr. Heenan
to fight again, and repudiate with indignation the
insinuation that lam not. In a very short time the
Champion's belt will be mine by indefeasible right ;
and even if Mr. Heenan had defeated me it would
not be his. He would have to do as I have
done—
meet every aspirant to the honour of wearing it for
three years before he would become the lawful pos-
sessor of the trophy. What, then, becomes of the
assertion made in Mr. Heenan's letter, that the belt
is equally owned by both of us ? The re is no such
equality ; but I will do him the justice he appears
desirous of denying me, by admitting his equality
in valour. To run, swim, or wrestle for the belt of
the prize ring is a challenge so eminently absurd
that one can hardly imagine it emanates from a sane
man, and the evidence of aberration of mind is
greatly strengthened by the proposal to jump off
a house-top. The same proposi▪ tion was once made
by a lunatic, who met his medic•
al attendant alone
on the roof of the asylum. "Let us," said the mad
patient, seizing the doctor with a firm grasp, "jump
down ;" but the medical man, with great presence
of mind, replied, " Nay, anybody '
. could jump down .
let us go into the street and jump up.” Like Teddy
the Tiler, I know something of the roofs of houses,
and their foundations also,. and while I unquestion-
ably , admit that Heenan is a " brick," I hope al-
ways to be able to sa7, with truth, as I do now, that
lam a bricklayer. he offer to fight four men, at
intervals of 30 days, savours of bounce, and is un-
worthy of John Heenan. He should remember that
it might take him the first month to vanquish
TOM SAYERS.

,THE AR3ll'.

The East India depots attached to the Ist and 3d
battalions at Chatham, selected to occupy the tents
pitched at the Spur battery and Prince Edward's
bastion, did not leave their bar.racks yesterday, as
had been directed, the order for their taking pos-
session of the tents on that day having been coun-
termanded by General Eyre in consequence of the
representations made by the principal medical
officer that it would be unnecess-trily exposing the
health of the troops to allow t': em to go under
canvas until the weather had become warmer and
more settled, and the ground recovered from the
effects of the saturating rains which have fallen.
The tents are nearly all waterproof, and the inte-
rior of each is fitted up with every convenience for
the health and comfort of the men. A portion of
the encampment is set apart for the use of the
Woops', where they will be allowed to amuse them-
„lvos With athletic games and sports, which are
much eucooraged by General Eyre.
The 2d ;it
baalion of the 20th Regiment, under the
command of _Li ."14,-Col. William P. Radcliffe, arrived
at the Curragh GMT on Saturday last from Dublin,
there to be quartereil during the summer.

THE DERBY DAY.

In reply to Mr. E. JAMES,
Lord PALMERSTON said that the Government would
not ask the house to depart from the usual practice in ad-
journing on the Tuesday till after the Derby Day. It was
not proper for a private member to bring forward a motion
on that subject, and he would movo the adjournment on

this day week.
RECREATION GROUND.
Mr. SLANEY moved that the Government or Parlia-
ment should take steps to secure open spaces in large towns
for the benefit of the working classes, and urged on the
house the necessity of providing places for the recreation of

the people.
Sir G. C. LEWIS considered the proposed inquiry un-
necessary. The existing law and local acts gave facilities
by which objects such as Mr. Slaney desired could be to a
greater or less extent attained. Where obstacles arose, the
proper course would be for the local authorities to apply to
Parliament for further powers. If any amendment of the
existing law were proposed, he should give it attentive con-

sidoration.
The motion was then negatived without a division.
LIVING FEMALE MODELS IN SCHOOLS OF
DESIGN.
Lord HADDO brought forward his annual motion .to
withdraw grants of public money from all schools of design
where nude living models were studied. This, he said, was
the case IN ith four schools out of 12.
Mr. SPOONER seconded the motion.
After a few words from Sir G. C. LEWIS,
Mr. ADDERLEY strongly opposed the motion, and de-
fended the practice, under proper restriction.
Lord PALMERSTON said this was not a question for
the Government. What was the minimum of cloth-
ing which the noble lord would allow ? He should have
been more precise.
The house then divided, when there appeared—

TURNPIKE ROADS AND BRIDGES.
Mr. ALCOCK moved for the appointment of a Royal
Commission to inquire into the existing system of taxation
for maintaining turnpike roads.
Sir G. C. LEWIS thought it was fair that those who
used the roads should pay for them. He saw no use in
issuing a commission, Pad should therefore oppose the
motion.
The house then divided, when the numbers were—

EAST INDIAN ARMY.—ORDER OF THE BATH.
Sir H. STRACEY moved for copies of correspondence
between the Secretary at War, the Governor• General of
India, and Lord Clyde, on the subject of officers recom-
mended for the Companionship of the Bath.
Mr. S. HERBERT denied that there had been any par-
tiality in the distribution of the Orders of the Bath or other
honours. As vacancies occurred those recommended by
Lord Clyde would have the Companionship of the Bath
conferred upon them. He could not consent to the pro-

THAMES.

LORD HENNIKER'S COA.CIDIEN IlerßOUßLE.—Richarci
Chester and Jeremiah Pratt, coachmen in the service of
Lord Henniker, were brought before Mr. Yardley, charged
with being drunk and incapable of taking proper care of
three horses, a carriage, and a brougham, belonging to his
lordship.

Thomas Brandon, a police constable, No. 211, K, stated
that last night he saw the prisoner Chester driving a horse
and brougham in the Mile-end-road in a very reckless
manner, and to the great danger and annoyance of the peo-
ple in the road, who expresso I their indignation at his con-
duct. The prisoner was very drunk, and was rolling about,
and nearly fell off the brougham. At last the prisoner
got the horse in a fix, and was turning round
and round, when the horse got locked in the brougham,
and'came to a dead stand. He saw the brougham was in
danger of being overturned, and took the prisoner into cus-
tody.
Police-sergeant Vaughan, No. 17 IC, stated that the
prisoner Pratt was driving a carriage and two horses and
following the brougham. Pratt was also drunk and unable
tornanage the horses properly, and he took him into cus-
tody.
Mr. Yardley—What time did this occur ?

Sergeant Vaughan—About seven o'clock last evening,
sir. Both prisoners were coming up the Mile-end-road on
the way to London.

Mr. Yardley—llad the prisoners been to a funeral or a
wedding? Coachmen get drunk at both or at a christen-
ing, it don't matter to them.

Inspector llayes—The horses and carriages belong to a
nobleman, Lord Hanniker.
Mr. Yardley—Not to a jub master?

Inspector Hayes—No, sir, the prisoners have been coming
up from his lordship's seat in Siltfolk fur two days and two
nights. _ _

111 r. Yardloy—And got drunk on the road. Does his
lordship know of flag ?

...
Chester—Yes, sir, my lord knows of it. lam very sorry
for it. We were very much fatigued and our rest broken
coming up from Suffolk.

Mr. Yardley—You arc two foolish men, to be getting
drunk while in the charge of your master's carriages and
horses. I suppose they went to the green yard last night ?
Inspector Hayes—No, sir. The carriages contained a
good deal of valuable property. I tient to his lordship's town
residence last night, and Lord 11,mniker's butler came down
to Stepney, and took charge of the carriages and horses.
Mr. Yardley—Weil, I can't iaverloek this, The prisoners
are fined ss. each for being drwlk,

FRANCE.

A letter from the camp of Chalons, dated Satur-
day, says :—" An important piece of news has this
moment arrived here; it is spreading through the
camp like lightning, and is electrifying the sol-
diers. The 15th and 13th Regiments of infantry
have received orders to leave for Syria, and they
are already preparing to depart. They are to pro-
ceed direct to Marseilles, travelling as rapidly as
possible, so as to embark on the 23d. In order to
complete on a war footing the companies of the
two regiments, volunteers have been called for from
the other corps in the camp, and on an average up-
wards of 20 men per company of each of the regi-
ment of the three divisions have already presented
themselves. This is ten times the number required.
As, in fact, the five brigades of infantry remaining
in the camp consist of 20 battalions, each of eight
companies, it follows that upwards of 3,000 men
have volunteered, though only a few hundreds
were wanted."

sions of the previous evening, the Secretary for India in-
tended to proceed with the two bills standing in his name
among the notices of motion—the India (Civil Service) Bill
and the India Judicature Bill ?

Sir C. WOOD said that, considering the period of the
session, be thought it would not be right to proceed. with
those bills.

Mr. DISRAELI said it would be convenient to know
the precise time when the Government would propose the
repeal of the Paper (Customs) Duty.
Col. FRENCH wished to know when the Galway con-
tract would come on for discussion.

Lord PALMEILSTON could not at present state when
the paper duty would be taken. It would come on in due
course, and due notice would be given with regard to the
question about the Galway contract. (Laughter.)
In reply to Mr. LIDDELL,

Sir G. LEWIS said that it was his intention to proceed
with the Ecclesiastical Commission Bill on Wednesday, and
he hoped that in consequence of some amendments the ex-
pected opposition to certain clauses would not be mani-
fe,:ted.

Mr. DISRAELI observed that the " due course" referred
to by the noble lord would bring on the subject of the paper
duty to-night, but he understood that it was not to be
broughtcon to-night, and he therefore hoped the Govern-
ment would give notice when it would be taken.
Lord PALMERSTON said that due notice would be
given.

Lord FERMOY said he had given notice of an impor-
tant motion on the Spirit Duty Bill, and he trusted that
measures would not be brought on at a late hour.
Lord PALMER&TON replied that it would not be taken
at a late hour, and probably not at all to •night.
Mr. H. SEYMOUR inquired whether it was intended to
proceed with the Ecclesiastical Courts and Registries (Ire-
land) Bill ? If so, he hoped that an opportunity of fair dis-
cussion would be afforded either on the second reading or
on the motion for going into committee on the bill.
11r. DEASY said his right hon. friend the Chief Secre-
tary for Ireland proposed to take the second reading to-
night, and probably there would be no objection to the
second reading, as all the important points for discussion
would arise in committee.

Sir G. C. LEWIS—It is a Lords' bill, and there will be
no difficulty in fixing a day which will admit of its full did-

cussion.
Mr. H. D. SEYMOUR—But will the Government do
so ? (A laugh.)
Sir G. C. LEWIS—Yea.

THE WESTMINSTER PALACE HOTEL.

Mr. VANSITTART asked the Secretary of State for
India, whether it was his intention to enforce his right,
under an agreement with the Westminster Palace Hotel
Company, to occupy their premises, or whether it was his
intention to continue in the City, either in the present
or any other offices.
Sir C. WOOD said that it would be inconvenient to take
any steps in reference to this subject at present, but that
they would be adopted immediately after the session had
closed.

ROYAL COMMISSION.

The Yeoman Usher of the Black Rod summoned the
Speaker and the members to the Upper House to hear the
royal assent given by commission to several bills, for which
see Lords' report.

MAYNOOTH GRANT.

Mr. SPOONER presented petitions against this grant.

THE CONVICT WILLIAMS.

Lord HENLEY asked the Secretary of State for the
Home Department whether the evidence and the sentence
in the case of Edward IN illiams, convicted of stealing a
watch at the March sessions for Northamptonshire, had
been laid before him ; and whether he considered it a
proper case for the interference of the Secretary of State.
Sir G. LEWIS said that inquiry had been made into
the matter, and that no grounds had been made out for the
extension of the Royal clemency to the convict in ques-
tion.

iIs4PECTACLES.—SIGHT AND HEARING.—
DEAPNESS.—A newly-invented instrument for ex-
treme cases of deafness, called the SOUND MAGNIFIER,
Organic Vibrator, and Invisible Voice Conductor. It fits so
into the ear as not to be in the least perceptible ; the unplea-
sant sensation of singing noises in the head is entirely re-
moved. It affords instant relief to deaf persons, and enables
them to hear distinctly at Church and at public assemblies.
Every other kind of hearing instruments. Messrs. SOLO-
MONS have invented spectacle lenses of the greatest trans-
parent power. The valuable advantage derived from their
invention is, that vision becomes preser►ed and strengthened ;
very aged persons are enabled to employ their sight at the
most minute occupation, can see with these lenses of a much
ess magnifying power, and they do not require the frequent
changes to the dangerous effects of further powerful assist-
ance.-39, Albemarle-street, Piccadilly, opposite the York

Dr. ENGEL (Prussia) had no instructions to in-
vite the members formally to assemble in Berlin.
But he had no doubt both the Prussian Government
and the City of Berlin would do everything to re-
ceive the Association as it deserved, should the
capital of Prussia be chosen as the next place of
meeting.
The Congress then separated.

FRANKFORT-ON-THE-MAINE, JULY 23.

It is asserted that the Kings of Saxony and
Bavaria will not take part in the interview be-
tween the Emperor of Austria and the Prince
Regent of Prussia at Toplitz.
The Prince Regent passed through this place
this morning. He proceeds to Toplitz via Dresden.
The Preussische Zeitung publishes the following :
" For some time past the relations between the
Cabinets of Vienna and Berlin have been much
more friendly, and now a further step has been
taken. In an autograph letter his Majesty the
Emperor Francis Joseph has expressed his eager
desire to have a personal interview with the Prince
Regent of Prussia. The Emperor left it to the
Prince to appoint the place for a meeting. We
hope that the personal interview about to take
place between the two rulers on the 26th inst., at
Toplitz, will turn out favourably to the best inte-
rests of Germany."
A letter from Berlin dated the 20th inst. says :--
"In liberal circles the interview between the Em-
peror of Austria and the Prince Regent of Prussia
is looked forward to with sme anxiety. The
Prince Regent declared at Baden-Baden that,
under all circumstances, Prussia would stand up
with all her power for the integrity of Germany,
thus, doubtless, also for the integrity of German
Austria ; and this the Prussian people fully approve.
But they do not want to see the fate of Prussia
connected with the fallen mixed provinces of the
Austrian Empire."
The National Zeitung says :—" As matters stand,
as little good is expected from the interview be-
tween the Emperor Francis Joseph and the Prince
Regent as arose from the interview with the Em-
peror of the French. At Vienna as at Paris the
object aimed at is to shackle the independent ac-
tion of Prussia." It is nevertheless a fact that
an approximation has taken place between the
two great German Courts.
