THE GREAT B ASTERN.

rary :

The latest from New York states that a very large
accession had been made to the number of visitors
of the ship previous to the time of her starting on
the excursion to Cape May. The incidents of that
trip appear to have added another to the many un-
fortunate examples of mismanagement which have
marked the career of this great undertaking. The
New York papers are filled with the complaints of
indignant excursionists, and one of them has a long
series of headings to its report of the trip, in which
occur, among other startling lines, " Sufferings of
passengers," "The noble ship and her ignoble mana-
gers," " Great promises and small performances,"
and the accounts of the trip go on to tell of the
most unseemly squabbles, of ladies dragged out of
their berths by American gentlemen (?), of fights on
board, struggles for water, scrambles for mattresses,
hopeless attempts to obtain refreshments, intoxi-
cated stewards, bewildered nigger waiters, fabulous
prices of food and drink, disgusting series of rough
practical jokes ; and the account of one of the cor-
respondents winds up by saying, " All that men
could do to make a noble ship odious, and a grand
experiment contemptible, the directors of the Great
Eastern have most successfully done ; while I can-
not now bethink me of a single means of annoying
man, woman, or child, on a voyage of pleasure,
which the same ingenious gentlemen left untried
between the 30th of July and the Ist of August."
It is to be hoped that these pictures have been some-
what overdrawn, though the general resemblance
of all the sketches affords but too much reason to
believe that they are in the main correct. It is
stated that Captain Hall and Mr. Bold, the mana-
ger, both strongly protested against making the
trip until more complete accommodation was pro-
vided for the 2,000 passengers who were expected.
They were, however, but the servants of the com-
pany, and as such powerless, for two members of
the board accompany the ship in the capacity of
travelling directors. Captain Carnegie is an ex-
cellent authority on the management of a frigate,
and Mr. Gooch possesses great knowledge and
experience in the locomotive department of the
Great Western Railway ; but it would appear that
both these gentlemen have thoroughly mistaken
their vocation in attempting to do the work of a
Barnum. On the return of these gentlemen we
shall, no doubt, have some satisfactory explanation
on the subject. The Great Eastern was to leave
New. York on the 16th, and by next Sunday she
will, no. doubt, have arrived at Milford Haven. On
the trip to. Cape May the performance of the noble
ship was in. every respect satisfactory, the speed ob-
tained. being 13 and 14 knots ; the machinery
was in excellent order, and gave the most complete
satisfaction. to those on board. It would have been
gratifying%if the other departments had been equally
as well conducted as that of the engineer's. It was
generally reported yesterday that the long-pending
arbitration between Mr. Scott Russell and the corn-
pany had been brought to a close, the award being
against the company, notwithstanding that the di-
rectors had expended, it is alleged, some £30,000 in
order to complete the works left unfinished.

The " gridiron" at Milford Haven, for the beach-
ing of the Great Eastern, is now nearly completed.
It has been in course of construction for the last
two months, giving employment at such times as
the tide permitted to about 200 men both by day
and night. It is formed on the northern shore of
the haven, a few hundred yards from the terminus
of the South Wales Railway, fronts the Royal
Dockyard, and lies as nearly due east and west
as possible. The beach, to the distance of 550
feet, has been excavated and levelled to within
a few feet of low watermark at spring tides,
which at high water will give a
depth of 25
to 27 feet. The beaching place itself is com-
posed of two " grids," 50 yards distant from each
other. Each grid is 150 feet long, constructed of
40 strong transverse " baulks" (or beams) of 45, 35,
30, and 25 feet long by 13 inches square. They
are laid down in four lots, ten of each length, with
an interval between each beam of three feet. Each
baulk of timber is firmly fixed in its place by three
iron-shod piles, of from three to four feet long. The
longest of these lots is laid nearest amidships, and
the rest according to their length, thus tapering off
to the stem and stern, so as in some degree to cor-
respond with the beam of that part of the ship
that will be immediately above them. Two " dol-
phins" 30 feet in height, made of four baulks, each
13 inches square, firmly clamped and bolted together,
strongly supported by back and diagonal struts,
have been driven in at about 300 feet apart. These
arc for the ship's side to lie against, as well as to
act as guides in the actual operation of beaching.
One of these dolphins will be just forward of
the starboard sponson, and the other near her
starboard quarter. These, together with the
mooring tackle and other necessary gear (all of
which- are provided) will keep the vessel in her
position. It being intended that while beached
the ship's head shall be to the westward she will
have to be swung before she goes on the girdiron,
which with a craft of her size will be a delicate ope •
ration well worth seeing. The Great Eastern being
650 feet long it will thus follow that when in posi-
tion she will be supported for 550 feet of her length
-viz., 300 on the two grids and 250 on the levelled
beach, leaving only 50 feet of her bow and stern
projecting beyond the timbers and excavations.

The engineers of the South Wales Railway are also
constructing a pier of loose stones (found on the
beach and forming part of those excavated in pre-
paring the gridiron) to enable visitors to the big
ship to have a ready mode of ingress and egress at
all states of tins tide. The whole structure has been
made at the expense of the South Wales Railway
Company, and will cost upwards of £l,OOO. Capt.
Ramsay, C.B. superintendent of the dockyard, has
given all the facilities in his power to the proceed-
ings.

GERMANY AND ITALY.

The following letter appears in a contempo-

Sir,—The violent anti-Gallicanism of a consider-
able section of English society and the English press
has had this bad effect in Germany—it has persuaded
the Germans that the Anglo-French alliance is so ,
completely broken that it cannot be re-
vived ; that England will now have to seek for
a military connection with Central Europe,
and that this connection must be paid for
by a change of the English policy in Italy. This
theory encourages the Germans to hope for the re-
establishment of Austrian supremacy in the Italian
peninsula. And most certainly if England and
France will quarrel, if they will separate more and
more from each other, if by the separation France
is thrown on Russia (now weak for external mili-
tary operations) for a connexion—for States can no
more live alone and in isolation than men—and if
England for the same reason is compelled to culti-
vate a German alliance, the danger and risk of
Italian independence are immeasurably augmented.
Look at what is occurring.
It is, no doubt, true that at Toplitz the Prince
Regent of Prussia did refuse to guarantee Venetia
to Austria. Such a formal guarantee would even
in a German sense have been a huge mistake. But
both the Prince Regent of Prussia and the Emperor
of Austria regard any attempt of Garibaldi on
Naples as a great danger to Venetia, and, through
Venetia, to Germany, and are preparing to resent
it accordingly; and in this view those Princes will
-be supported by such public opinion as there is in
Germany, and by the false sentiment which is so
largely substituted for public opinion.
For example, it is some time since Herr Schleinitz
announced that the Court of Berlin was disposed to
give effective support to the King of Naples, if his
dynasty on the mainland were placed in jeopardy;
and now Count Rechberg has, it is said, plainly
told the Piedmontese Government that a landing by
Garibaldi will be followed by an open intervention
in the kingdom of Naples, in defence of the royal
authority: This intervention will, I reiterate, be
applauded in Germany.
But Austrian intervention will lead to French
intervention, and a renewal of war in Italy between
those two great States. In that event the popular
feeling of Germany will be to afford Austria mili-
tary aid. A hundred .onsiderations held Germany
back while the former struggle saturated the plains
of Lombardy with blood; among them I will
mention two. France and England were then on
better terms than they are now, and Venetia was
not attacked. But, amongst the Imperial reasons
given to the French people for the peace of Villa-
franca was even then the fact that Venetia could
not be attacked without rousing Germany. And
the subsequent facility with which Garibaldi has
driven the Neapolitan troops out of Sicily, the pro-
bability that the same success will attend any of
his operations on the mainland, his avowed policy
of annexing the whole of the Two Sicilies in Pied-
mont, and enabling Victor Emmanuel to become
King of united Italy, now convince the Ger-
mans that the Bourbon dynasty dethroned in
Naples, and both the Sicilies annexed to Pied-
mont, Venice and Venetia would next be quickly
assailed by Victor Emmanuel in due form of war.
Hence they approve of Austria regarding Naples
as an advanced defence of Venetia, of its treating
the acts of Garibaldi as those of the Court of Turin,
and of holding that Court responsible for the con-
sequences.
How, then, can the danger to Europe involved
in this situation of affairs be avoided or averted ?
Not by the English Government simply offering
good advice to Victor Emmanuel and Count Cavour,
for their role is fixed and immutable. To them " re-
turning were as tedious as going o'er." The inde-
pendence and freedom of Italy are inscribed on a
standard under which they must stand or fall. When
or wherever it is raised they have no alternative
but to follow it. Were they to shrink from sup-
porting the cause of Italian independence, how-
ever desperate, they would be disgraced before
Italy. It is useless at Turin to cry Peace, peace,
where there is no peace. Italy for the Italians
—ltaly for Piedmont, is their policy. And in that
policy they are pursued by a destiny sterner and
more inexorable than the Fate in the Greek tra-
gedy. When, for example, the Neapolitan Govern-
ment sent a mission to the Court of Turin to pro-
pose an alliance between the two States, what
reply was Count Cavour obliged to give it ?
Why, this, that either the alliance should be post-
poned until the Neapolitan Parliament had met and
pronounced an opinion on the existing state of
things—in other words, until the Neapolitans had
an opportunity of dethroning the Bourbons—or
that it should be concluded immediately on the
Neapolitan Government dismissing all their foreign
troops, admitting into Naples and the fortresses on
the continent 24,000 Piedmontese troops, and send-
ing as many Neapolitan troops to Piedmont—in
other words, that Piedmont should at once be made
master of Naples. From the point of view of
Italian independence, the Court of Turin was per-
haps quite right in proposing this alternative.
But the fact that it did so, and was compelled by
its position and its duty to Italy to do so,
ought to convince England that it is not at Turin
the catastrophe of a new Italian war can be averted.
At the request of the English Cabinet, Victor
Emmanuel did lately address a letter of amicable
remonstrance to Garibaldi against landing in
Naples. Garibaldi replied in the terms which
Victor Emmanuel must have expected when he
complied with English wishes. Let us, then, have
done with remonstrances at Turin. No one
knows better than Lord John Russell that they are
utter waste of time.
Is our Government then to sit quietly by and see
war approaching as if it were an inevitable natural
calamity ? Certainly not. Nothing, Lord John
has assured Parliament, could be franker or more
conciliatory than Louis Napoleon's desire and suc-
cessful efforts to come to an understanding with the
English Government on the Syrian question. Why
not try and extend this frankness and cordiality
to the Neapolitan question ? Naples is exactly
that part of Italy on the treatment of which, in
Ferdinand's lifetime, the two Cabinets did agree
and act concurrently and harmoniously. There
is not the smallest evidence of the Emperor seek-
ing to revive Muratist pretensions at Naples.
He has publicly declared himself anxious to
again act with England in the south of Italy,
and that, after the policy of the British Govern-
ment had been over and over again proclaimed. And
now the pretensions of Austria to intervene in the
affairs of Naples against the people and in favour
of a King they hate, and the inclination of Prussia
to support Austria in those pretensions—involving
as they do all the risks of a general war—render
the agreement of the two Western Governments on
this question the readiest mode of preventing any
such conflagration.
If Austria does interfere it will be because the
two Governments cannot agree, and Austrian
interference will lead to French intervention.
What the world, out of Germany, wants, is
no interference at all. If Austria will precipi-
tate another w ar with Piedmont because of Naples,
Austria will become such a nuisance as the rest of
Europe ought to abate. But Austria won't interfere
if France and England inhibit interuention. Neither
Austria nor Germany has the smallest right to con-
demn the people of Naples to live perpetually
under a vile government, out of fright that, Naples
free, Venetia will next become free. And it is the
duty of England and France to separate the
cause of Neapolitan liberty from any depend-
ence on Venetian slavery. Before such an
agreement the Germans will think twice before
they promise any support to Austria. But the
danger is imminent, and time presses.

SAVINGS BANKS.—At the close of the savings
banks financial year in November, 1858, the amount due to
depositors from all these banks in the United Kingdom
was £36,221,153. They had in the hands of the Commis-
sioners for the Reduction of the National Debt sums
amounting to £36,026,088. The difference, £195,065, had
not been invested in Government securities. In Great
Britain no trustee or manager is liable for any loss unless
it occurs by his own default; in Ireland he is liable, and
over the
to the full extent, unless by a declaration filed with the
Commissioners he limits his liability to £lOO, a course ge-
nerally adopted. To the credit of four towns---Fareham,

THE REVOLUTIONARY MOYE,7IENT
Dl CALABRIA.

A letter front Naples, dated August 11, says :
The revoiutioriar.}, ruovt,milut in the province, as
I led you to anticipate, has actually commenced.
The Government received depatches from Calabria
yesterday which speak of armed bands collecting
in several districts. The royal civil and
military authorities demand reinforcements
from all quarters, Some 8,000 followers of
Garibaldi have landed near Reggio with two
field batteries. Garibaldi himself was at Villa
S. Giovanni. This news is, however, recorded
in the official journal in a somewhat modified
form thus :—" Monteleone (Calabria), Aug. 9.
The people have made themselves masters of a small
fort which is near Villa S. Giovanni. Off Reggio
a small fleet of boats is seen crowded with men.
These boats arc guarded by four. steamers." The
official journal further informs us that on the
Bth and 9th the electric wires between Reggio
and Bagnara were cut. We further learn that
masses of men were seen on the plains of Marti-
niti and Canitello ; and, finally, we are told that
the royal troops, after a sharp engagement,
succeeded in routing the invaders. This is
much like the account we got of events which took
place when Garibaldi first landed in Sicily. You
will receive, doubtless, more correct details from
your ,special correspondent than I can give from the
conflicting reports which reach Naples. The military
commander of Puglia has asked for more troops,
as a rising is expected in that direction. No doubt
all this organisation is in anticipation of the army
which Garibaldi has collected expressly to invade
the continental dominions, for we hear that diplo-
matic representations have entirely failed to pre-
vent him carrying out his plans. Here, as usual, all
is confusion and anxiety. M. Brenier, the French
Minister, has recommended the King to put him-
self at the head of his army, and go and meet Gari-
baldi • but whether the young tyrant has pluck
enough to do so is a question. The advice is good ;
for unless something of the sort animates the half-
dead loyalty of the army, the King will lose his
throne without mich fighting. Despatches are
pouring in daily to the Court from all quarters of
Europe. Francis 11. has worked very hard to
obtain external aid, but the Emperor Napoleon, we
learn, is still firm in preventing foreign interven-
tion in Italy. The character of the young Sove-
reign is such that few Governments would dare to
keep him on his throne by force—so at least
we hope here in Naples. Some persons about the
King urge him to give up the constitution, get
rid of his Ministry, and repudiate all liberalism as
a political failure. He would like to take their ad-
vice. But to do this he must be sure of the army
before he makes his coup d'etat, and the King is
not quite sure of the fidelity of his troops. The
Calabrese are deserting by wholesale. Many officers
have retired. The whole army is infected with
treason (there can be no doubt of this), and I don't
think the navy is at all more devoted to the royal
causethan the land forces. Gen. Marra was arrested
and brought from Reggio to Naples because he
reported disaffection of the troops under his
command. There are many symptoms of Gari-
baldism—or rather, I should say, a growing con-
viction amongst all classes of Neapolitans that
the Unita ltaliana can only be accomplished by
Victor Emmanuel adding Naples to his dominions.
His Highness the Count of Syracuse has declared
his intention to make friends with the King of
Piedmont, and a Sardinian vessel of war is placed
at his disposal. Lots of valuables belonging to the
other uncles of the King have been pit on board
an Austrian vessel, whilst Gaeta is made the last
station of Francis ll.'s expected flight. His Royal
Highness the Count of Aquila told a friend of mine
that all his roba was out of harm's way.' All parties
are in a most strange position. The King blames his
constitution Ministry for non-success, and almost
suspects them of treason. His Majesty forgets he
alone is responsible for the indifference with which
the people regard his forced concessions. The
Neapolitan Ministry is doubtless honest and sin-
cere, but no human beings can ever make Francis
acceptable to his people. He is by nature more
cruel than his father Ferdinand; he has less edu-
cation, and if possible more puplicity. He must
go, or reign with foreign bayonets—titers is no
middle path open to him.
From what I hear from people about the Court
the King will shortly address the army and Na-
tional Guard, suspend the constitution, and mea-
sure his strength with Garibaldi. Such is the posi-
tion we are in just now.

THE MURDER AT STEPNEY.

The death of Mrs. Mary Emley, at No. 9, Grove-
road, Mile-end, Stepney, is still involved in
mystery, and at a late hour on Friday evening
large crowds of persons collected in front of the
premises, when Sergeant Tanner, of the chief de-
tective-office, Great Scotland-yard, and Sergeant
Copping, of Arbour-square, Stepney, attended by
order of their superior officers to make a thorough
search of every part of the dwelling, which was
decently furnished, but in a dusty and neglected
condition. The officers made a diligent search of
the several rooms, and it would appear that the de-
ceased was killed in the top front room, used as a
lumber-room or attic, where she had kept a large
quantity of paper-hangings. She had left her bed-
room on the first floor, and was attacked by some
one who was well acquainted with her habits. She,
was dressed in her usual day clothing.
The police, on making a more minute search of
the lumber-room, found traces of blood upon the
wall and partition of this apartment, where the
body was lying against the inner side of the door,
with her head touching the woodwork. She was
on her left side, and the wound, which was ex-
tensive, had been inflicted with a hammer or some
other 'hard blunt instrument. The deceased had
been struck from behind, and the back part of her
head was completely battered in upon the brain,
proving beyond a doubt that the unfortunate de-
ceased had fallen immediately after the fatal injury
had been inflicted.
It was rumoured yesterday eveningthat the police
had found some trace of the deceased's watch, which
was missed by her relatives. It is described as a
goldrect buteate the

A relative of the deceased, who is a poor man,
has come forward and claims to be heir at law to
the whole of deceased's property, and since the
death of the deceased woman upwards of 50 persons
have claimed eadhroeultatiiiroo ship. The deceased had recently
worth of paper hangings to
decorate her house property. She employed small
jobbing painters, carpenters, to do her repairs,
and made out her own estimates for the contract
work.

SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.

BETTING AT MANCHESTER, SATURDAY.
The near approach of the York Meeting infused a little
More spirit in our market to-day, than we have had for some st(
time past. There was a goodly muster of subscribers, but t,
speculation was confined to only a few animals: For the
Ebor Handicap, Defender Was in great force, 3 to 1 being
taken towards the close, and the friends of Moorhen sup- 1
ported her in earnest, 50 to 4 was laid against her yester-
day, but all prices from that down to 7to 1 was taken st
eagerly about her to -day. There were many inquiries st
about Cape Flyaway, but we saw no disposition to take less St,
than 11 to 1, and Satellite found friends at 100 to 8. Gla-
a‘
diolus and Underhand still continue almost friendless, offers
of 20 to 1 meeting with no response excepting to small
s
amounts. There was little change in the St. Leger quota- s
tions, 3 to 1 was taken about Thormanby, 4 to 1 was offered
against the Wizard, and 100 .to 8 was taken against S
Alban.—Closing prices

ARRIVALS AT YORK.
Grenadier, Vesta, Violet, Prudence, ilarefoot, Gardener,
Sampson, Hepatica, Vouralak, and Tyrant.

Many of the parcels of gold lately sent to the
Continent have been for Spain. It has been suggested that
these remittances may have been for the purpose of pur-
chasing some of the silver in i
course of receipt for the
Moorish indemnity, but the belief s that they were simply
to pay for wheat, the harvest this year in Spain having been
extraordinarily abundant. Nearly all the heavy supplies of
grain now pouring into the port of London from the Con-
tinent have already been paid for, and if the uninterrupted
badness of the weather had not led to the expectation that
large further orders may now be in course of transmission,
there would have been reason to expect that the foreign ex_
changes, which have been so long unfavourably influenced,
might henceforth assume a better appearance.
THE ROAD MURDER.—We learn from the Bristol
Mercury that the police have been engaged in prosecuting
an investigation at Road, the nature of which is, for pru-
dential reasons, not permitted to transpire but we believe
we are correct in stating that they entertain the hope that
some light will shortly be thrown on this hitherto impene-
trable mystery.
THE NOTTINGHAM LACE MAICERS' LOCK-GUT.—
The lock-out in the Mechlin trade still continues. The em-
ployers refuse to give the increase of wages demanded by
the men, and the workmen object to go in unless their de-
man is acceded to. Subscriptions are being received for the
support of the lock-outs from several parts of the kingdom,
and there does not appear any probability of the struggle
being terminated for some time to come.

THE SUN, LONDON, MONDAYO EVENING, AUGUST 20, 1860.

THIS DAns MARKETS.

CORN EXCHANGE.

The leading country markets held on Saturday were
scantily supplied with wheat, which, in most instances,
was disposed of at is to 2s per quarter more money. The
small. quantity of barley, oats, beans, and peas on offer
changed hands at very full prices, and there was an im-
proved inquiry for flour.
On. the Continent, owing to the continuance of wet wea-
ther, the wheat trade has become firmer. In prices, how-
ever, no change of importance has taken place. All spring
corn has realised extreme currencies. The export inquiry
for fl our has somewhat increased in the United States, and
price s have had an upward tendency.
The arrivals of English produce up to our market last
week were again limited. The imports from abroad were
large, viz., 33,600 qrs. of wheat, 3,403 barley, 47,580 oats,
205 tares, 6,640 linseed, 3,820 rapeseed, 1,460 made, 100
sundry seeds, 7,591 sacks, and 11,228 barrels of flour.
Notwithstanding that nearly the whole of the country
markets come dearer, and that harvest operations are very
backward, no inclination was shown on the part of the
millers, to-day, to get into stock. The show of English
wheat was trifling, coastwise and by lend carriage. Good
and useful qualities were disposed of somewhat steadily,
and, in some instances, last week's prices were rather
exceeded. At the close of business prices were 2s. higher.
There were several large country buyers in attendance,
and they took off full average quantities of foreign wheat,
at quite is per quarter above last week's quotations. For
consumption in London, however, the demand was by no
means active, at fully late rates.

We were scantily supplied with barley, and the whole of
the supply on offer was disposed of at very fully prices.
Town-made malt changed hands steadily ; other kinds
slowly, at late quotations.
_ _ _

There was a good consumptive demand for oats, at very

fall prices.

Beans were in short supply and good request, at last
week's quotations.

Peas were quite as dear as last week, with a steady in-
quiry.
The flour trade was firm, and country marks were held
on rather higher terms.

Our market to-day was well supplied with foreign stock,

From our own grazing districts the nceipts of beasts
