211 E GALE.

The storm of Saturday night and Sunday has done
much damage to shipping in the Irish Channel.
We have already recorded the loss of the Earl of
Chester, wrecked during the storm near Holyhead,
with the loss of all on board. The vessel sailed from
Liverpool on Friday for Madras with a general cargo.
She was 493 tons burden, and belonged to Messrs.
J. Prowse and Co., shipowners of this town. She
was commanded by Captain W. B. Nancollis, whose
wife was also on board the ship. The following are
the names of the officers and crew :—Henry Wm.
Hall, mate, aged 26, of Dublin ; Malcolm Service,
second mate (shipped in place of Thomas Harvey,
who was prevented by illness from proceeding on
the voyage) ; Henrich Mathies, carpenter, 27,
Hanover ; William Henry Fooman, steward, 24,
Boston ; James Cross, cook, 31, West Indies. Able
seamen :—John Thompson, 29, Holland ; James
M'Donald, 25, Edinburgh ; John Johnson, 23, Fin-
land ; John Dean, 20, Chester; George Bowen, 33,
Guernsey ; John Campbell, 22, and John M'Gravy,
19, both belonging to Belfast. There were four
apprentices—John Berry, 15 ; Robert Fields, 16 ;
James Pringle, 14 ; and Henry Brockett, 15, all of
Liverpool. The vessel struck about half-past 6
o'clock on Sunday morning, and owing to the dread-
ful sea running at the time she was broken up into
small fragments. For half a mile along the beach
chests containing sailors' clothes, boxes with merchan-
dise, such as candles, wine, and manufactured
clothing, were found scattered about. Thirteen of
the bodies have now been recovered. The wreck is
now a prey to the notorious wreckers of the coast
known to W elsh seafaring men as " lladron Crigyll."
Many hundreds of them were thereyesterday steal-
ing whatever they could carry away, and the efforts
of Captain Jones, Lloyd's agent, and of the Coast-
guard were utterly inadequate to protect the pro-
perty.

The Triumph is stranded on the east side of Holy-
head Bay, having been driven from her anchors over
the rocks into Trevadoc Creek. All her cargo will
doubtless be saved, but as her keel is gone it is pro-
bable she will become a wreck. The steamer Isabella,
from Liverpool for Montevideo, reported on Mon-
day lost near Milford, was a small steamer of only
11 tons regr., intended for navigating the river Uru-
guay. She left Liverpool on the Ist inst.
At the Isle of Man a schooner (name unknown)
has anchored in Laxey Bay, with loss of sails,
masts, &c. Another schooner had a marvellous
estape in Douglas Bay. The gale raged from the
south-east, and, coming up before it, she rounded
safely into the bay, the crew thinking that they
would secure shelter there. The wind, however,
was so violent that she dragged her anchor
and was blown through a narrow passage called
the Sound, running between two reefs of
rocks, one known as St. • Mary's, (or Con-
nister), and the other as Pillock Rocks. Had
she been 20 or 30 yards nearer either one side or the
other she would inevitably have been wrecked on

one of these reefs. This was the fate which befel

le Thomas Parker, of Dublin, _Richard Berry

mastcr. She alto rounded the head and came to
anchor in the bay about 3 o'clock on-Sunday morn-
ing. She driQged her anchor and went ashore ou
Mary's Rocks. In order to attract the atten-
tion of the p:ople on shore to their dangerous posi-
tion the crew, five in number, brought their beds
on deck and set fire to them. The result was that
a boat from the harbour went out to their assistance,
and with great difficulty succeeded in rescuing all.
Soon afterwards the vessel fell over, and it is feared
that she will become a total wreck. She is the pro-
perty of Mr. Robert Kelly, of Port Marnock, county
of Dublin, and is uninsured.

/~- .

During the gale on Saturday and Sunday three
or four vessels were wrecked off the coast of Cum-
berland. One of these was the Ariel, of Belfast,
from Dublin for Maryport, in ballast. She ran
ashore at Drigg early in the morning, and by noon
she had become a total wreck. All hands were
saved. The schooner Old Harry, from Dublin for
Workington, in ballast, went ashore near Bootle,
but is expected to be got off. A Glasgow vessel,
name unknown, was cast ashore at Duddon ;
abandoned.

The gale blew with great violence on the coast of
Northumberland and the south of Scotland. The
schooner Phcenix, of North Berwick, from. Sunder-
land, was, wrecked near. Dunbar ; all hands were
saved.

THE REMAP K ABLE DISCOVERY IN ST AFFORD.
suntz.—On Monday inquests were held at Bewdley, on
view of the three bodies which were some little time ago
discovered by charcoal burners in the shaft of a disused
coalpit. No evidence was given to show how the children
came to be in the place where they were found. A surgeon
who had examined the bones stated that ho believed the
children had been murdered. The coroner advised the jury
to adjourn the inquiry until April next, and undertook to
ask Government to offer a reward for the discovery of the
perpetrators of the supposed crimes. The coroner's advice
was acted upon.

YOTiEIGN NOTES.

VIE ITALIAN CRISIS.
The Roue correspondent of the Liberte cannot restrain
his indignation at the poltroonry of the Roman people.
The rising of the 23rd failed entirely through their
cowardice. Two hundred of them had been paid a large
en

,m of money to join the Garibaldians, but directly
they saw the Papal troops they either fled or fell
down on their knees, and, shouting " Evviva Pio
Nono 1" sued for mercy. The Garibaldians fought
like lions ; but in vain. There were probably
20 killed, t,O wounded, and 100 prisoners. On the morn-
ing of the 21th a number of Garibaldians descended from
the Sabine llills, along the banks cf the Tiber, no doubt
with the intention of aiding the insurgents in the city if
they had succeeded. Filing was heard during the after-
noon, and the next day it was stated that the invaders
had been driven back upon Monte Raoul() after hard fight-
ing. liwas expected that the attack would be renewed before
daybreak, and the Pontifical troops were kept under arms
the whole night ; but nothing happened, except that at
midnight everybody was startled by the noise of a cannon
shot near the Porta del Popolo, but this turned out to he
a false alarm. By six o'clock in the evening everybody,
except the troops, was in doors. Four guns fired from the
Castle of Saint Angelo is the signal for all the shop.
keepers to close their shops. Not more than four persons
are allowed to walk together through the streets. All
windows are compelled to be shut. Several Orsini bombs
were nevertheless thrown into the streets, but in conse-
quence of the nouring rain they exploded very imper-
fectly.
The Florence correspondent of the Etendara bears testi-
mon), to the bravery of the Garibaldians. After his
victory at Monte Rotondo, during which battle Salmone
was killed by a bayonet thrust, at the head of his
battalion, and Mosto was dangerously wounded, Garibaldi,
acting on his usual policy of giving the enemy no rest,
marched at once upon Torretta, a fortified Position about
ten miles from Rome. The latest news received at Flo-
rence on the 27th was that he had advanced to Ponte
Molle, two miles from Rome, a position at which he fought
in 1819. At Paris it was currently reported on Tuesday
that Garibaldi had entered Rome, and that the Italian
troops had crossed the frontier.
The Paris correspondent of the Daily Telegraph says
that a fresh occupation of Rome is not unpleasing to the
majority of Frenchmen, and that if ihttblilarlTZ
enter the city the French troops will drive him out. "But -
what will Italy gay if French guns are again heard on
Italian soil ? I do not hesitate to say that if fighting
begins between French and Italians of any class or opi-
nion, we shall see such a movement as we have not
beheld since 1848. Will the Italian army remain faithful
to a King who lets the French drive Italians out of
Rome ? I do not believe it. Will the Conservatives

support the Throne—Ri casoli, for instance, and his many
friends? I doubt it. Will not every section of Liberalism
be welded together ? It does not matter to France, but
it is an awful time for Italy."

There appears to be some truth, after all, in the report,
first published in the Journal des Debuts, to the effect that
Baron Usedom, the Prussian Minister at Florence, had
assurred Itattazzi that Prussia would regard any invasion
of Italian territory as a casus belli. Even the Napoleonist
Morning Herald admits that some such representation was
made, though it has, according to our contemporary, been
exaggerated. "We have," says the I.l(vald, " good reason
to believe that the language of the Prussian representa-
tive was by no means so forcible, and that it was merely
suggested that Prussia would regard with great dissatis-
faction any attempt to destroy the kingdom of Italy,
which had so lately been her ally in a great continental
war. As the Emperor of the French is in no respect
more likely to strike a blow at the unity of Italy than
Count Bismarck himself, it is almost needless to say that
very little significance is attached to the reported conver-
sation of the Prussian representative with the late Italian
Minister."

Lord Lyons has communicated to the Marquis de
Moustier his instructions with regard to the Italian
question. Our Ambassador has informed the French
Minister of Foreign Affairs that England will preserve
neutrality with regard to the Roman question, but that it
could not remain indifferent should the integrity or the
autonomy of Italy be threatened. The Liberte further

states, on the strength of information from London, that
it was at the request of Italy that the French expedition

was sent to Civita Vecchia, the Italian Government ad-

mating that it was unable to meet the difficulty. This
statement does not seem very probable, unless, indeed, for
"Government" we substitute " King." More likely to be
true is the assertion that General Menabrea consented to
form a Cabinet on two conditions : first, that Victor
Emmanuel should issue the proclamation which has since
been issued ; and next, that he should make another
attempt to obtain the consent of Napoleon to a joint occu-
pation of Rome by Italy and France. It is reported that
the French Emperor has decidedly refused this applica.

tion, on the ground that in the present state of affairs the
the Pope ought to be protected only by French troops. At

the same time, Napoleon has expressed his hope that they
would not have to proceed beyond Civita Vecchia.

THE MINISTERIAL CRISIS AT FLORENCE.

The Florence correspondent of the Liberte gives the
following history of the Ministerial crisis at Florence.
On the 27th, at ten a.m., Cialdini waited on the King and
told him that in consequence of Garibaldi's rapid march
the position had become untenable, and that he
resigned the office lately entrusted to him. At
the same time he recommended the King to send
for Rattazzi (who, by the way, it is now stated,

gave orders to let Garibaldi escape, and supplied his fol-
lowers with arms). Ratt azzi, on being summoned together

with General Durando, and informed that the French
fleet had left Toulon, urged the King to oppose force with
force. "Sire," said Rattazzi, "it will take the French
fleet thirty hours to traverse the distance between Toulon
and Civita Vecchia, the French troops, whatever may
happen, cannot effect their landing before four o'clock
to-morrow; it is easy to anticipate them, to occupy Rome,
or at least to take up a position between that city and
Civita Vecchia." Rattazzi added that there was no time
to be lost, as the transmission of the order to the army
would occupy several hours. It was now two o'clock,
and the King, still undecided and afraid that the bold
measures proposed by Rattazzi would only aggravate
the position, said that he must take time to consider.
He then sent for General La Marmora, who arrived at
3 o'clock, and remained in consultation with the King
until 5.30. He told the King that he could not possibly
form a Ministry in consequence of his relations towards

the Left party- and the army. At 6 o'clock Rattazzi
returned to know the King's decision, Victor Emmanuel
replied that he would give his answer to - morrow.
" Sire," replied the ex-Minister, " to-morrow there
will be no longer any time to act ; your troops
will arrive too late." He then left, and General
Menabrea was sent for. He arrived at 8, and accepted
the task of forming a new Ministry. For six days
there had been no Government, and everything had been
left to the feeble Signor Monzani, secretary to Rattazzi
who directed the police and falsified the telegrams. During
all that time the King was pitifully weak and irresolute
while Rattazzi never ceased to say, " March—the French
will make plenty of noise, but they won't do anything !" It
is now firmly believed in Florence that Victor Emmanuel
has seriously compromised himself by private despatches
written without the knowledge of his advisers. His un"
popularity is very great.
According to the Paris correspondent of the Morning
Advertiser, Rattazzi was misinformed by his wife—then in
Paris—as to the intentions of the French Government.
It was in consequence of her assurances that nothing
would induce the French people to consent to another
Roman expedition, that Garibaldi was allowed to escape
and the revolutionary movement permitted to develope.

"Malys" writes to complain of the attitude which the
Times has assumed towards Italy during the past three or
four days. He says that while it is quite true that the
Pope had power to take foreign volunteers into his pay, it
was never intended that portions of the French army,
commanded by French generals, should enter the service
of the Pope; otherwise the Convention would be of
no advantage to Italy. Then, too, the Romans
ought to be consulted, for even negroes now aro
not disposed of without their consent. If the
Romans had had but fair chance, they would long
before this have thrown off the Papal yoke, and every man
in Italy would be fighting by the side of Garibaldi. To
these arguments the Times replies sarcastically that the
Romans at all events resemble the negroes in one respect, in
sitting still and letting others fight for them; and that if
every Italian would like to fight by the side of Garibaldi,
how comes it to pass that more are not so fighting. Moreover,
the Pope's army is not composed exclusively of French-
men. There are Belgians and Germans in it.

Napoleon has forbidden the French papers to publish
lists of subscriptions in behalf of the Garibaldians. On
the other hand, the clerical journals publish from day to
day long lists of subscriptions on behalf of the Pope.
The Univers alone has received £4,000, no great sum
according to English ideas, but a large sum for France,
where a subscription of 20 francs is thought munificent.

Lord Lyons is now established in his new post at the
Embassy. Mr. Sheffield is his private secretary, and the
other members of the Embassy are the Hon. Julian Fane,
Mr. Adams, Mr. Clay Ker-Seymer, and Mr. Hildyard.
The manager of the iron works at La Villette, one or
the suburbs annexed to Paris a few years ago, but only
subjected to the octroi since January last, has issued a
notice, that in consequence of the heavy octroi duty on
iron the establishment will be closed on Thursday, and
that the workmen must seek employment elsewhere. Two
thousand men, it is said, are thus thrown out of work,
