ITALY.

The Corriere Mercantile of Genoa announces
that 0. despatch of the Sardinian Minister of War

orders the immediate embarkation of the King's
Brigade for Naples. That brigade was to sail from
Genoa on theevening of the Gth; the ships were all
ready.

The Ever° says that the Government of the
King sends a Commissary-General to Sicily, charged
with the administration, and that the same measure
will be taken as regards the kingdom of Naples,
where troops are sent by sea.
The Nazione of Florence announces that 4,000
Piedmontese are to embark at Ancona for Palermo.
Advices from Naples, received by La Patric, state
that on the morning of the 4th inst. Garibaldi made
a reconnaissance in person in the direction of Capua.
He ascertained that the line of the Volturno was
still strongly protected, and that the Royal troops,
despite their recent check, were prepared to defend
it. He went as far as the bridge of Treflisco, and
found that fresh redoubts, armed with cannon, had
been thrown up, and that it would be impossible to
turn the place on the north aide.

The Government of King Francis 11. of Naples
has addressed the following communication, dated
Gaeta, 16th Sept., to the representatives of the
Foreign Courts accredited to his Majesty :
" Continuing the course of. his unexampled usur-
pations, Gen. Garibaldi, after his entrance into the
city of Naples, published among other measures
three decrees, to which the undersigned Minister
of War, provisionally charged with Foreign Affairs
has, by order of his august Sovereign, the honour to
call the attention 'of —, Envoy Extraordinary
and Minister Plenipotentiary of H.M. the --.
" One of these decrees, dated the 7th of this
month, contains textually the following words :
All the vessels of war or of commerce belonging to
the State of the Two Sicilies, the arsenals, and the
war materials are made over to the fleet of the
King of Italy, Victor Emmanuel, commanded by
Admiral Persano.' The other two decrees, of the
9th, may be summed up in these terms :—' All
acts of the public authorities and of the adminis-
tration of justice shall be in the name of H. M.
Victor Emmanuel, King of Italy. The seals of the
State used in public administrations and in public
documents shall bear the arms of the Royal House
of Savoy, with the inscription of Victor Emma-
nuel, King of Italy.'
" When at the beginning of the expedition, which
during four months Europe has regarded with stu-
pefaction, but with impassibility, the Cabinet of
Naples demanded explanations from the Pied-
montese Government, Count Cavour replied, in the
name of his Sardinian Majesty, that the attacks on
international law were committed contrary to his
orders, and he expressly declared that General
Garibaldi, in taking the flag of Sardinia and the
name of King Victor Emmanuel, was guilty of
manifest usurpation.
" But notwithstanding these explicit declara-
tions, piratical enterprises continued to be prepared
in the Piedmontese territory. From the 6th May
last up to this day more than 25,000 men, together
with sailing vessels, steamers, and even artillery,
have publicly quitted the ports of Genoa, Leghorn,
and Cagliari. Officers of the Sardinian army, and
members of the Turin Parliament, directed the
military and political operations of the condottiere
of the invasion.

" Numerous committees acted without mystery,
both at Turin and Genoa, to provoke and keep up
insurrection on our territory, and foreign forces
aided the internal revolution which was powerfully
excited by their support. The occupation of Sicily,
and the invasion of part of the Neapolitan conti-
nent, were the forced consequences of the incredible
toleration of Piedmont, especially after the declara-
tion of the 26th of May of Count Cavour.
" Whilst the Sardinian ports served as an in-
violable asylum to this scandalous piracy, whilst
the banner of Piedmont floated over the invading
bands, the fortresses, and the vessels, the relations
between the Cabinets of Turin and Naples were
pacific, and a Minister of the King of Sardinia
accredited to his Majesty gave every day and up to
the last hour to the Sovereign of the Two Sicilies
assurances of the amicable dispositions of his King.
" Conciliating to the last moment, desirous of
preventing new conflicts in Italy, and relying on his
incontestible right, his Sicilian Majesty hoped to
repel the invasion, and end the war without adding
international questions to international difficulties.
But things have come to such a point that he is
obliged to appeal to the reason, the justice, and the
most legitimate interests of Europe.
"Bands organised in the ports of a friendly State
have occupied the capital and a eonsiderable part of
this kingdom. Revolution did not precede their
march, but accompanied and supported it.
"The leader of the invasion assuming dictatorial
powers, made a present of the Neapolitan fleet to
that Sovereign, put it under the orders of his admi-
ral, ordered justice to be administered in his name,
and attributed to him all the titles of sovereignty
in an old monarchy which, constituted by solemn
treaties, forms part of the independent States of
Europe.

" While protesting in the most formal and ex-
plicit manner, in the name of his august master,
against these acts of usurpation and violence, the
undersigned deems it his duty to call the attention
of your Excellency to the new public law which
such facts tend to establish in civilized Europe.
His Majesty's Government still hopes that the
King of Sardinia will not delay to reject with due
indignation the gift, so offensive to his honour, of
the fleet and territory of a friendly sovereign—a
gift made by a man who he himself has styled a
usurper. _ _

" His Majesty's Government trusts that, seeing
the disasters and evils produced by the excessive
and inexpressible toleration of the Sardinian Go-
vernment, the King of Sardinia will no longer
permit his name and flag to be used for the inva-
sion of a peaceful State, the shedding of innocent
blood, and the violation of the treaties which con-
stitute the public law of Europe. Nor will it cease

implies the annihilation of all recognised right and
the complete absorption of the independent States
which still remain in Italy.
" At all events, the Government of his Sicilian
Majesty again protests against the above-mentioned
decrees of General Garibaldi, declaring them null
and void, and likewise all their consequences, ap-
pealing to the justice of Europe against a line of
conduct which transforms the Mediterranean, the
sea of civilisation and commerce, into a scene of
action for pirates, and leaves a nation all the profit
of a conquest without the responsibility and perils
of war.

" The undersigned requests your Excellency to
lay this communication before your Government,
and gladly avails himself of the present occasion•to
renew the assurance of his most distinguished con-
sideration.

PRUSSIA.

A letter from Berlin, dated 6th October, says
The interview at Warsaw is fixed for the 20th
October. Our Ministry has proposed to the Prince
Regent not to accept on this occasion any engage-
ments binding upon Prussia, dnd the Prince Regent
has consented thereto.
."The health of the
King continues much the
same. It is feared the bad weather may prevent
his long walks, which do him much good. All the
terraces at Sans-Sonci are lighted up every even-
ing, to enable him to remain out in the air as long
as possible.
" The Grand Duke, heir-apparent of Russia, has
been appointed a Colonel in the Prussian army,
namely, of the Ist Regiment of Silesian Uhlans.
" Count de Reventlow has been appointed a
Peer of the Realm. He was formerly Governor
of Schleswig-Holstein, and became naturalised in
Prussia after the suppression of the rising in Hol-
stein."

FRAUDF. —The last American intelligence—
refers
to an extraordinary inquiry which has been some time in
progress regarding an almost universal system of plunder
practised by the ee of the Pennsylvania Railroad, one
of the leading lines of the United States. Twenty-one per-
sons are already implicated, and these seem to have the
power of implicating others in much higher position, so that
there is a strong desire for concealment. With one excep-
tion, the whole of the conductors of the line are understood
to have long carried on a daily system of misappropriation.
Some of them have confessed and disgorged as much as
they were able. One gave up £5OO, another £3,000. Others
had' lost all in gambling, and had nothing to return. In
one instance £l7 was proved to have been embezzled by a
conductor in a single trip. This man, however, whose pay
was £l4O per annum, on being asked by the examining
Committee how he had contrived in a few years to accumu-
late £7,000, replied that he would give a satisfactory answer
if the party who put the question would explain how h
