LONDON, THURSDAY, SEPT. 20, 1860.

We are sorry to find that we were not mistaken in
our conjectures yesterday. LAMORICIERE is not only
determined to fight, but it would seem he even took
the initiative. Unless the official reports of the
battle are exaggerated, he must have had more
mercenaries than was supposed with him ; since we
read of his attacking General CIALDINI in the posi-
tion taken by the latter, near Castelfidardo with
11,000 ; while a column of 4,000 men made a sortie
from Ancona and took part in the conflict. More
exact accounts will, of course, soon reach us, but the
chief features of which, we trust, for humanity's sake
will prove a decisive battle, appear to be clear.
LAMORICIERE was in the field, it would seem, not
intending, at present at least, to attempt a junction
with the Royal Refugee from Naples, but to cover
Ancona, or to rest upon it. He was supposed to
have taken a strong position, and to have intended
waiting the attack of the Piedmontese ; but evi-
dently ho was either unable, from some cause, to
remain there, or, what is more likely, thought him-
self strong enough to drive his opponents back.
Probably the numbers he attacked at Castelfidardo
were not much, if at all, superior to his
own ; if so he had a severe lesson on the
difference between men fighting for pay merely,
and soldiers more enthusiastic for their native
country than concerned about wages.
It need not be doubted that LAMORICIERE is all
that a French Algerine general ought to be; and
that he had made the best possible use of all the
raggamuffins and cut-throats, whom Papal wages
and the prospects of Perugian scenes had attracted
from the kennels of Catholicism all over Europe
but even he could not make such men into a band of
invincibles in a few weeks or months, as he has now
found to his cost. They would seem, indeed, to have
fought fiercely for a short time, just while there
was some chance of success from a sudden onset
but steady courage requires better motives than
could be found in the hearts of such a worthies;
set, and they must have turned to flight in utter
confusion. The official despatch from the seat of
war tells us of six hundred prisoners, of six pieces
of artillery, and of a flag being taken. The wounded,
including a wounded General, are in the hands of
the Sardinians, which proves the haste in which
the mercenaries fled, and how completely they had
left the field to the victors. Of course, under such
circumstances, we may easily believe that " the
losses of the enemy are considerable."

One result of the battle is said to be, that the
" junction of General LAMORICIERE'S corps with
the remainder of his troops at
Ancona is pre-
vented." From this we gather that the Predmon-
tese are in sufficient force to besiege Ancona, while
holding LAMORICIERE in check, and probably more
than this to attack him in turn. The siege of
Ancona is certainly commenced. A French vessel,
whish had left the place on Tuesday for Trieste,
brought the news of its investment on the laud
Side, and the official telegram from Jesi, to which
'we have already referred, states that the fleet
had opened fire on the place. We may daily
*xpeet, therefore, important tidings from thence ;
of its speedy fall, we hope. There is evidently
a fine spirit pervading the whole Sardinian army,
both men and officers. Everything falls before
thern. They fight, to be sure, under the best in-
spiration—through love for their own cause—for
their Italian fatherland—and bitter hatred of the'
the motley binds of foreigners who have been Hired
to enslave it. But it is also evident that the Pied-
montese are vow acquiring, through two wars,
besides their share in the Crimean contest, some of
that practice in fighting which teaches soldiers to
rely on themselves and their generals. if all
goes on successfully, when the volunteers of
GARIBALDI, and the better part of the Nea-
politan army, and the Sardinian troops,
are brought into one body, they will constitute a
force with which even Austria will not again pre-
cipitately provoke a conflict. For some time to
come united Italy ought to have a strong army and
a good fleet. Ito cold will be well spent money.

It will enable her to consolidate her liberties, and
settle her form of government, without the neces-
sity of listening to transalpine counsels and orders.

It will also have the advantage of becoming a bond

of national union.

Together with these gratifying particulars of the
military success of the Piedmontese movement into
the States :of the Church, we receive also the
particulars of the much less important pa-
per war between Count CAYOUR and Cardinal
ANTONELLI. The Count is of course the aggressor.
He describes in language truthful enough the
character of the POPE'S mercenaries, and adverts
to the effect of the " recollection of the massacre
and pillage of Perugia" on the minds of the in-
habitants, and the insult which the very presence
of foreign troops is to the inhabitants; and,
having remarked on the intimate connection of
the KING'S dominions with Umbria and the
Marches,without further ceremony, adds that "King
VICTOR EMMANUEL'S conscience does not permit
him to remain a passive spectator of the _bloody
repression with which the arms of the foreign
mercenaries would extinguish every manifesta-
tion of national feeling in Italian blood. No
Government has the right of abandoning to the will
and pleasure of a horde of soldiers of fortune the
property, the honour, and lives of the inhabitants
of a civilised country." The practical determina-
tion of the KING• is conveyed in the following
pretty plain terms :—" The KING'S troops are
charged to prevent, in the name of the rights of
humanity, the Pontifical mercenary corps from re-
pressing by violence the expression of the senti-
ments of the people of the Marches and Um-
bria. I have, moreover, the honour to in-
vite your Excellency, for the reasons above ex-
plained, to give immediate orders for the disbanding
and dissolving of those corps, the existence
of which is a menace to the peace of Italy."
No CARDINAL could be wanting in the skill to an-
swer a layman ; especially, when the latter has
little to say which the diplomatic usages of Courts
would justify, and must rely on the principles of
justice and humanity merely. The CARDINAL
could write with truth of his opponents " new prin-
ciples of public law," and.appeal to the practice of
other Governments for the employment of foreign
troops. Cardinals, however, can be too ingenious
sometimes. Thus the astute ANTONELLI says—
"ln fact, many Governments of Europe have
foreign troops in their pay. On that subject it
may be expedient to observe that, owing to the
character with which the Sovereign PONTIFF is
invested as the common father of all believers,
he ought to be less subject to criticism than any other
for receiving in the ranks of his troops all who
come and offer themselves from the various parts
of the Catholic world, for the defence of the Holy
See, and of the States of the Church." Now it is
obvious to reply—these wretches, whom you call
troops, offering themselves for the " defence" of
the Holy See, are not hired to defend it in the
usual sense of the word. No foreign force menaces
the Holy See ; on the contrary, one defends it—
these mercenaries are hired solely to enable a
number of ecclesiastics to oppress their fellow-
citizens, and to keep down all civil freedom
by the terrors of massacre, pillage, and vio-
lation of women. We do not know whether
it be any symptom of shame before the
execrations of all Europe, that the brutalities
of the Perugian massacre, all planned by AN-
TONELLI himself—are thrown upon those who
prompted the liberal movement they were in-
tended to repress. We can only say that this jus-
tification places ANTONELLI in a blacker light
than ever. What a fiend, in the garb of a Minister
of Christ too, must a man be, who could call what
was done at Perugia the " legitimate action of the
troops of the. Holy See." If indeed it be so, then
assuredly the sooner such a Holy See be swept
into eternal perdition the better. If such deeds be
Holiness, Europe may well ask what then is
.Devilry The world may well be thankful that
VICTOR EMMANUEL has brushed away formalities,
and commenced a course of practical instruction to
the Holy See, on the Christian duties of humanity
and mercy.

Since the above was written we have received
further news all in the right direction. The Army !
—say rather the combined Ruffians of LAMORI-
CIERE, are dissolved, and, like the baseless fabric
of a vision, leave only a wreck behind. The
General has only, been able to escape into Ancona,
there to save his life, with but a few followers, by
the fleetness of their horses, and by a stolen path !
-What a contrast between the yesterday and to-
day ! Thus may thelmpious perish ! Ancona cannot
long be a place of rest or even refuge to the forlorn
outcasts—it is besieged, and must soon surrender.
We refer to Mr. REUTER'S Telegrams for the very
latest news.

A ludicrous incident has but very recently served
to illustrate afresh at Constantinople, the extraor-
dinary anomaly characterising the position occu-
pied by Turkey among the European Governments.
The Sultan-Caliph ABD-UL-MEDJID is suddenly
seized with a panic, lest England should have re-
solved upon his assassination and dethronement
through the agency of her Ambassador ! His Ex-
cellency, Sir HENRY LYTTON BULWER, is proceed-:
ing one fine evening over the glowing waters of
the Golden Horn, in his cailue, on his way to
Therapia. Somewhere off Dolma Bakschi his rowers
bring him abreast of a steam yacht, immediately
(hut, as it happened, erroneously) presumed by Sir
HENRY to be that of his Highness IL HAITI
PACITA, with whom his Excellency, our Am-
bassador, had previously arranged to make a brief
excursion together a few days afterwards in the Sea
of Marmora. As accident would have it, however,
the steam yacht in question chances to be that of
his Highness AZIZ EFFENDI, the brother of the
SULTAN, ABD-UL-MEDJID. So that when his Ex-
cellency, Sir H. L. BULWER—acting altogether
under a misapprehension as to the ownership of the
vessel he is approaching—draws near to the yacht
anchored off Dolma Bakschi, and (finding, in an-
swer to his inquiries, that her captain is not on
board) promises to return next morning on his way
back from Therapia—intelligence of this mysteri-
ous incident is forthwith conveyed to his Majesty,
the SULTAN-CALIPH, and conjectures are at once
afloat as to its sinister significance!

As a matter of course the British ambassador—
directly his Excellency has learnt the odious and
alarming construction put upon his purely acciden-
talrovement, in thus hailing the steam yacht of
Aztz EFFENDI, mistaking it for the steam ache of
IL Thou PACHA as a matter of course, we say,
Sir HENRY LYTTON BULWER at once disabuses the
agitated mind of the SULTAN from any further
misapprehension of an occurrence so wholly and
purely fortuitous. The explanation is simple enough
—the rig of the
.two vessels bore, the one to the
other, we are told, a singular close resemblance.
Hence the blunder of the ambassador. Hence the
misconstruction put upon that blunder—in itself,
of Course, to us, Western Europeans, sufficiently
trivial to be allowed to pass by without
a moment's observation—but viewed through
the jealous eyes of orientals fraught with the
portents of a half-covert malignity. " How-

ever," writes a correspondent of the Levant Herald
of the sth inst., " his Majesty [the SULTAN] of
course accepted the Ambassador's explanation, and
we have reason to believe has since expressed to his
Excellency, through HAKI BEY and his Highness
AALI PACHA, his regret that he should have been
even momentarily misled into a conception of the
fact." Certainly a cool way enough of tendering
verbal compensation for an outrage of the grossest
kind imaginable wantonly offered to Sir HENRY
BULWER in his public and private capaeity—viz.,
as a high-minded English gentleman and as one of
her Britannic MAJESTY'S Ambassadors.

" Regret" is expressed for the " misconception."
But what was that misconception ? Either it
meant nothing, or it meant distinctly this—that the
British Ambassador was making advances to the
SULTANS brother, his Highness Azix EFFENDI,
with a view to conspire the death by violence of
the reigning SULTAN, or the advancement of the
said Aziz EFFENDI to the vacant couch of the
Divan. Either it meant this, or something exceed-
ingly like this, or it meant nothing. Unless that
was the construction put upon the incident of his
Excellency's chance visit to the steam-yacht of
Aziz EFFENDI, what possible importance could
attach to an occurrence so utterly insignificant ?
Nay, unless that, and nothing less than that, was
the presumed bearing of the incident, why these
proffered " regrets" of the SULTAN, through HAKI
BEY and AALI PACHA.—regrets that his Majesty
should have been even momentarily misled into a
misconception ? A nice misconception truly ! It
is first of all taken for granted a man hitherto
known only as a friend is capable of conspiring at
assassination, and then—upon the monstrocity of
this supposition be proved to actual demonstration
—quietly proffering a word of " regret" that suf-
ficient discernment had not been shown in the dis-
crimination of character. Such, moreover, is the
return made to England through the sacred charac-
ter of her ambassador for all the blood, the gold, the
lives squandered magnanimously by her upon the
shores of the Euxine, only six short years ago, in
vindication of the integrity, in maintenance of the
independence in defence of the capital of the SUL-
TAN'S Sovereignty. It is a fitting sequel to the
well remembered mission of MENSCHIKOFF to Con-
stantinople. Transpiring as it does upon the very
morrow of the Syrian massacres, it illustrates
anew, in a very vivid and timely manner, the now
incontestable truth that Turkey survives only as
a most flagrant and glaring anomaly in Christen-
dom.

Although the subway under the new approach
to Covent-garden cannot of course be followed out
as the rule to be adopted henceforth throughout
the whole of subterranean London, we do earnestly
hope that it may be copied as closely as possible as
the Rule or System upon every reasonable opportu-
nity. We would insist upon its being adopted syste-
matically as a plan to be in this manner assiduously
developed and multiplied, because (seriously and
advisedly we say it) we deem any such extension
of a network of subways under the metropolis in
the first place certain to prove eminently practi-
cable, and in the second place no less certain to
prove pre-eminently convenient. To appreciate
this fully upon the instant it is only necessary to
bear in mind what it is that is actually being
accomplished in this way in connection with new
Covent-garden approach—to remember that there,
under that new thoroughfare, the contractors are
about to construct an arched subway twelve feet
wide and seven feet six inches in height—having
to the right and to the left arched side passages
for the conveyance of house-service pipes, as well as
a due amount of cellarage upon either side of the
thoroughfare. Conveyed along the principal or
central channel of this ample arched-subway, will be
trailed the gas main, the water main, the hermeti-
cally sealed pipe or conduit for the conveyance of the
sewage, and side by side with these the magic coil
of the electric telegraph conductors. Supposing
every thoroughfare in London to be provided with a
similar subway to the one now in course of con-
struction :beneath the level of the new Covent-
Garden approach, there would be an end for ever
to the expense and inconvenience, the toil and the
interruption to traffic now periodically attendant
upon the breaking up of our roads and pavements,
as is our one clumsy, and costly, and laborious, and
intolerably vexatious method of repairing mains,
pipes, sewers, and other subterranean channels for
the drainage, lighting, or irrigation of London and
Westminster. At any rate, towards the realisation
of most of those advantages, an admirable oppor-
tunity is now being opened up for us, in connec-
tion, that is to say, with the delay of the low level
sewers in the new main drainage scheme, until
such time as those low level sewers can be con-
structed simultaneously with the.double line of our
Thames embankments.

THE RUMOURD ATTEMPT TO ASSASSINATE THE

Paris yesterday says certain foreign journals have an•
nounced that, at Toulon, a criminal attempt has been made
upon the life of the Emperor of the French. The state-
ment is entirely destitute of foundation.
PROGRESS OF THE METROPOLITAN RAILWAY
Wouxs.—The work of tunnelling the New-road at King' a-
cross is progressing rapidly, notwithstanding the impedi-
ments arising from the intersection of sewers, gas, and
water pipes, and the stiff character of the clay to be exca-
vated. It is, however, at Battle-bridge that the progress
of the works is at present most perceptible. The entire
wedge of buildings lying between Gray's Inn-road, Battle-
bridge, and Bagnigge-wells-road has been removed, and the
ground on which it stood is being cleared fur the erection of
a station and the construction of the line of railway, which
will at that point enter the valley of the Fleet, along which
it will run to its terminus in Farringdon- street. In the
tunnel itself a very large portion of the brickwork and other
masonry is complete, and the public may sppn begin to look
forward to the opening of the route from Paddington tothe
city.

BEERHOUSE KEEPERS AND THE NEW WINE
LICENCES ACT.—On Tuesday, at the Manchester Police-
court, Mr. Perkins, beerhouse keeper, York-street, Cheet-
ham, was summoned for illegal trading. Mr. Austin, the
assistant town-clerk, said he appeared in support of the in-
formation at the request of the police. The defendant was a
beerhouse keeper, and the information was for keeping his
house open after eleven o'clock at night. Evidence would
be adduced in proof of the charge, but notice had been
given to the police that the defendant would rely upon a
new legal ground of defence, arising out of the Refresh-
ment and Wine Licences Act. The defendant had a wine
licence, and he seemed to think he had a right to keep open
his house at all hours ; but, by a reference to the 6th sec •
tion of the act, it would be seen that beerhouses were really
altogether excluded from its operations. " All houses,
rooms, shops, &c., kept open for public refreshment, resort,
and entertainment, at any time between the hours of nine
o'clock at night and five o'clock on the following morning,
not being licensed for the sale of beer, cider, wine, or spirits
respectively, shall be deemed refreshment houses within
this act," &c.—A police-constable was called, who stated
that about midnight, on the 12th inst., he was in the defen-
dant's house, where a number of men were smoking, and
drinking coffee and ginger beer. Some empty glasses were
on the table, but he saw no beer served.—Mr. It. Cobbett,
who appeared for the defendant, submitted that there was
no case. It had lately been decided at the Court of Queen's
Bench that it was necessary, in all such cases, not only to
prove that the house was open, but that it was open for the
sale of beer. In the present instance the officer, when called
to prove the offence, proved that no beer had been sold.—
The magistrates dismissed the case on tho ground of in-
sufficient evidence,

GENOA, THURSDAY.

Advices received here from Turin assert that
a letter has been addressed by Garibaldi to the
King demanding the immediate dismissal of Ca-

Garibaldi also demands 30,000 Sardinian sol
diers to garrison Naples.
Garibaldi's letter is couched in respectful bu

energetic terms.
The above conditions are specified by Garibaldi
as the sine qua non of a good understanding be-
tween him and Piedmont. The King immediately
despatched a brief reply, but the contents of the
letter are not known.

The Ministry will communicate to Parliament
the demands of Garibaldi, and will request its
approval of their conduct. Should their approval
be withheld, the Cabinet will tender its resig-

nation.
Great agitation prevails at Turin.

JESI, SEPT. 18

General Lamoriciere, with 11,000 men, attacked
to-day the position lately taken by General Cial-
dini, near Castelfiardo. The fight, which was short
but desperate, gives the following results :—The
junction of General Lamoriciere's corps with the
remainder of his troops at Ancona is prevented;
600 prisoners have been made; six pieces of artil-
lery and a flag were taken. The enemy's wounded,
among whom is General Pimodan, fell into the
hands of General Cialdini. The losses of the
enemy are considerable. A column of 4,000 men,
who made a sortie from Ancona, and took part
in the fight, was compelled to retire. It is being
pursued by the royal troops. Our fleet has
opened fire against Ancona.

TRIESTE, SEPT. 19.

The French steamer Seine et Rhone, which left
Ancona yesterday, and arrived here to-day, brings

pected.

PARIS, SEPT. 19.

The Patrie says:—
" We are authorised to state that the proclama-

" That journal declares that the Island of Sardinia
and of Elba, cas echeant, will indemnify France
for the new increase with Piedmont would receive
by the 'annexation of Naples and of Sicily.
" To these persisting assertions we must again
give a new and categorical denial.
" And, first of all, the annexation of Naples and
of Sicily is not an accomplished fact. -Were that
annexation completed to-day the Imperial Govern.
ment would not recognize it.
' Justice would bid a truce to all these pro-

SARDINIA AND GARIBALDI.

A letter from Turin, dated 17th inst., says :
"As I announced, the official Gazette of this

Parliament for the 2d October. .

"The session will be a very short one. It is even
probable that it will not exceed ten days. The
policy of the Government, as it is actually repre-
sented by the Cavour Ministry, will be submittEd
the to Chembers in juxtaposition to the policy at

Garibaldi and his partisans, and the representa-
tives of the nation will be called upon to make a
choice between the two.

" Should an imposing majority declare itself in
favour of the policy of the present Cabinet, Count
Cavaur will naturally remain at the head of affairs,
and I believe I am well informed when I say that
the intention of the Count is to act with unflinch-
ing every in the accomplishment of the new duties
which a vote of confidence of the Parliament will
entail upon him.
" I case a doubtful or hesitating majority should
support Count Cavour's policy, he will immedately
resign his office toM. Ratazzi, who, perhaps, might
obtain some concessions from Garibaldi, which,
under all circumstances, are quite indispensable to
prevent the Italian movement entering a fatal path.
"At the present moment rot the slightest
concession can be expected from Garibaldi , M.
Depretis has completely failed in his mission. He
has been to Naples, namely, to induce Garibaldi to
annex Sicily at once to Sardinia. The Dictator will
not hear of annexation until the day when what he
calls his programme shall have been carried out,
which is nothing else than the promise to make
Rome the capital of the Italian empire, and to con-
quer Venice.
" Should he even consent to make some modifica-

ions in his plans, it would never be—it is Garibaldi

himself who has just written it to the King in a
letter brought to his Majesty by one of the Gene-

ral's aides-de-camp—except on the condition that
MM. Cavour and Farini should leave the Ministry.
" Tbis is the actual state of affairs. Form your
own judgment as to how replete it is with danger.
Another letter, also dated the 17th inst., says :
" Garibaldi continues to organise his Govern-
ment in the sense of his own policy. I have
already alluded to MM. Pallavicini, Trivulzio, and
Bertani. M. Cattaneo decidedly goes to Naples as
Secretary-General of the Dictatorship, His accept-
ance is the more remarkable as he declined sitting
in the Parliament of which he is a member, so as
not to take the oath to the King. M. Cattaneo is
the advocate of a federal republic. It is curious
enough to see him called for by the party which
was the first to hoist absolute unity as its motto.
" The claims of M. Cattaneo to Garibaldi's favour
are a violent pamphlet against the cession of Nice,
and a pronounced antipathy against Count Cavour.
" It is reported that the Annexationist Ministers
of Naples will resign. M. Scialoja, and even M.
Liborio Romano, are mentioned as likely to do so.
It is curious that the principal members of the
Government of Naples are Lombards. Lombardy
is the province which has provided the greatest
number of volunteers to Garibaldi; It is there that
the element most hostile to Count Cavour is
strongest.
"Now that the kingdom of Naples has been con-
quered from Francis 11., it will be necessary to
conquer it again from Garibaldi; but I fancy the
political skill of Count Cavour will arrange every-
thing.
" The Dictator still asks for more volunteers,
which proves his firm intention of continuing the
war. His agents are not stopped, but difficulties
are thrown in their way."

FRANCE.

PARIS, WEDNESDAY,

The Emperor and Empress arrived at Algiers on
the 17th, at half-past eight in the morning, although
their passage was retarded by heavy weather. The
Minister of Algeria and General de Martimprey,
Commander-in-Chief of the land and naval forces of
the colony, went on board the Aigle to take the
orders of the Emperor, and at nine o'clock their
Majesties landed under a salute from the forts and
vessels of war in the roadstead, and proceeded to
the Cathedral, passing as they went several
squadrons of Spahis as well as all the Aghas and
Caids at the head of their Goums. At noon the
Bey of Tunis, who came to congratulate the Em-
peror on his arrival, entered the roadstead on board
the Foudre steam frigate, and on landing was re-
ceived with all the honours due to his rank. His
Highness soon after had an interview of the Em-
peror and Empress. One of the brothers of the
Emperor of Morocco was expected during the day.
BOURSE, Sept. 19.—An upward movement,
generally attributed to a report of General Cialdini
having been defeated by General de Lamoriciere,
has taken place. Threes, which opened dull at
67f 95c, went up steadily, and are now at 68f 10c ;
Mobilier, 682 f 50c ; Orleans, 1,381 f 25c ; Mediter-
ranean, 890 f; Austrian and Lombard, 470 f. The
English funds having arrived with a rise also tended
to give animation to this market. The following
