CORRESPONDENCE FROM PARIS.

(FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.)
PARIS, Monday Evening.
King Victor Emmanuel has returned to Florence,
and the telegrams received from that city to-day
announce that perfect tranquillity prevails through-
out the whole of the kingdom of Italy.
As was supposed the Italian Parliament will
meet in a very few days. The Government is well
aware that under the present excited circumstances
it is necessary to consult the representatives of the
nation, to explain its conduct, and to lay before the
Chamber the diplomatic correspondence which has
been exchanged with the French Government. The
Opposition, it is said, mean to propose a resolution
to the effect that the arrest of Garibaldi was illegal,
being contrary to article 45 of the fundamental
statute, which declares the personal inviolability of
its representatives. The Opposition deputies have
also drawn up a collective letter, in which they
invite the President of the Chamber, should he not
have received a more direct communication, to inter-
vene with his personal authority with the responsible
Ministers " to obtain the prompt reparation of an
illegality which is calculated deeply to wound the
national feelings."
Some of the papers still believe that France will
again interfere for the protection of the Pope, and
that another French force will be sent to Rome. I
do not think that the rumour is well founded, but
yet the Journal des Debats, a journal of so much
influence, seems to believe in it, for it argues that
the convention of last September did not afford a
solution of the difficulty, which has been much
increased by recent circumstances.

A letter from Nismes, dated Sept. 26, gives an
account of the remarkable and terrible effects of the
storm in that city, which was more daring than
ever known in that locality. The account speaks
of " avalanches" of chimneys and tiles from the
roofs, and says that the streets were encumbered
with bricks and fragments. In the neighbouring
town of St. Gilles a Madame Bruginer was passing
along the street when a portion of the façade of a
house was precipitated upon her head, which broke
her skull, and death ensued instantaneously. Great
havoc has been made among the olive crops.
In the machine gallery of the Exhibition is seen
a vertical steam engine, partly gilt and partly plated
with silver, so that at the same time it is handsome
as will as curious. But the principal merit of this
machine does not consist of its beauty. As a spe-
cimen of progress in this branch of industry it is
curious, from the novelty of applying the motive
power. It affords an interesting specimen of the
various machines constructed by MM. Hermann,
Lachapelle, and Co., and Charles Glover, many of
which are to be seen in various parts of the Champ
de Mars, of a horse power varying from oae to
fifteen horses. Several of these machines are con-
stantly at work, and they form the motive power
for hydraulic machines for manufacturing soda
water, lemonade, and even for cutting diamonds.
These machines occupy very little space, they are
easily fixed, and they work with such regularity

MIRACULOUS ESCAPE.—On Monday afternoon as
Mr. Henry Batch, a warrant officer attached to the
steam reserve at Portsmouth, was proceeding in a boat
towards her Majesty's ship Asia, he observed a man float-
ing on the water, with his face downwards. He at once
ordered the waterman to pull towards the man, who was
hauled into the boat and taken on board her Majesty's
paddle-wheel steamship Gladiator,where he received every
attention from the assistant-surgeon. The rescued man
turned out to be William Bonetta, carpenter of the Topsy
surveying steam-launch, who, in attempting to step from
that vessel to a coal-hulk, had fallen unobserved into the
water. When rescued he was in a most exhausted condi-
tion, and must have speedily perished but for the timely
assistance rendered him. As it was, it was several hours
before ho recovered sufficiently to be in a condition to be
conveyed to his home in a cab.

SAVINGS BANKS.

The official returns show that at the close of the
last year there were 551 savings banks in the United
Kingdom under the management of trustees-449
in England (with Wales), 52 in Scotland, 48 in Ire-
land, 2in the Channel Islands. There were at that
date, the date of the latest return, 1,164,712 accounts
open at these savings banks in England, and the
amount due to depositors was £31,473,182 ; in Scot-
land there were 162,730 accounts open, with
£2,751,323 due upon them ; in Ireland, 51,583 ac-
counts, with £1,540,578 due ; and in the Channel
Islands, 19,366 accounts, with £454,688 due upon
them—making a total of 1,398,391 accounts, with
£36,219,771 due upon them. The expenses of
management amounted to £134,131, averaging
7s. 6d. per cent. on the capital. The total
amount invested with the National Debt Com-
missioners was £36,050,625, besides £376,084
surplus fund, and the balances in the hands of the
several treasurers amounted together to £305,699.
The rate of interest paid to depositors averaged
£2 19s. 6d. in the English banks, £2 19s. 40.
in the Scottish, £2 14s. 9d. in the Irish.
There were 1,259,222 several receipts from
depositors in the year, and 979,172 payments
were made to depositors. In England there
aro three savings-banks with more £1,000,000
of deposits those at St. Martin's-place
(£1,626,435), at Manchester, and at Exeter, In
Scotland the largest amount is at Glasgow—
£l,ll2,lB9 ; and in Ireland at C0rk—£2,555,092.
Since the establishment of Post-office savings banks
a hundred trustee savings banks have been closed and
transferred to Post-office savings banks by transfer
certificates, with deposits amounting to £1,105,066,
belonging to 50,835 depositors ; besides which it is
estimated that further deposits amounting to
£170,000 were in fact transferred in cash by about
8,000 depositors. With the competition of the Post_
office banks it is not surprising that the deposits in
the savings banks managed by trustees decline ;
the decrease in 1866 as compared with 1865 was
£2,224,236.

THE PAPAL STATES.
ROME, Oct. 1.

The Giornale di Roma says :—" New bands of the
insurgents have crossed the Papal frontier at Aqua-
pendente and other points in the province of Viterbo,
and have exacted money and food from the inhabi-
tants. At Canino an armed band was discovered
by the inhabitants early in the morning and put to
flight. In other localities several of the insurgents
have fallen into the hands of the troops, some o
their number being killed. The town and entire
province of Viterbo are tranquil.

FLORENCE, OCt. 2.

The Opinione publishes intelligence from the
Pontifical frontier confirming the statement that
several armed bands bad made their appearance in
the province of Viterbo. One band of 80 insurgents
recently surrounded Aguapendente, in the barracks
of which town 40 gendarmes had taken refuge.
Great agitation prevailed throughout Viterbo.

INDIA.

BOMBAY, Sept. 19 (via Trieste.)

IL M. frigate Octavia has left for the Persian
Gulf, in consequence of reported disturbances at

Muscat.

The new steam transport Euphrates arrived at
Bombay on the 27th August, and leaves for Suez on
the 12th inst. with stores and tents for the troops on
their arrival in Egypt.
A collision has taken place between a runaway
locomotive and a passenger train on the Great India
Peninsular Railway, resulting in the death of one
passenger, the guard, and a native fireman.

Two large bridges, over au unopened portion of
he same railway between Kundwah and Hurdah

have given way.
A crack has been discovered in the largest viaduct
at Hull Ghaut, and three other viaducts over the
same Ghaut are in such a dangerous state that
passengers have to leave the trains and walk across.

Seventeen other bridges, over unopened portions
of the Nagpore Extension of the Great India Pe-
ninsula Railway, have been condemned by the coln-

pany's engineers.

The cholera is still prostrating the armies in
Afghanistan. Afzul Khan, the Ameer of Cabul,
is 'reported to be one of its victims. The report,
however, requires confirmation.

ARRIVAL OF THE MALTA.

QUEENSTOWN, Oct. 2.

The Cunard extra steamship Malta, from New
York, arrived here at 6.15 a.m. to-day, with 88
passengers. She landed 22 passengers, and de-

DUBLIN, Tuesday Night.

The Lord-Lieutenant arrived in Belfast at half-
past 2 to-day. He was received with official
honours by the municipal bodies, and by a large
concourse of people. He drove, amid loud cheers,
in an open carriage, at the head of a procession, to
Belvoir-park, where addresses were presented to
him. Along the whole route flags were displayed
and triumphal arches were erected.
Earl Russell arrived by the same train, and, after
his Excellency had left, proceeded quietly to the
Royal Hotel.
Attempts were made to excite prejudice by post-
ing placards denouncing Earl Russell, but the
police tore them down.
The best feeling prevails throughout the city.

The Price of Gold.

The quotation of gold at Paris is about at par, and
the short exchange on London is 25f. 20c per £1 sterling.
On comparing these rates with the English Mint price (1
£3 Os. lOid. per ounce for standard gold, it appears that
gold is 1-10th per cent. dearer in London than in Parts
The course of exchange at New York on London for bills
at 60 days' sight is about 10ii per cent. At this rate there
s no profit on the importation of gold from the United
States.

COVENT GARDEN CONCERTS.

In the dullest part of the dead season it may
seem surprising to many that any one can be found
to go to a concert of any kind ; but there is a large
population in London at all times demanding
something better than the olla podrida of the music
halls, and the Promenade Concerts at Covent
Garden are just the things to satisfy the taste of
the resident multitude. The audience has not,
perhaps, a great:appreciation of classical music,
and receive no concise idea from the fact of a sonata
being in a flat or a sharp, as the key may be ; nor
does it understand why any one letter of the alpha-
bet should be more musical than another, but it
knows pretty well what it likes ; and if the public
taste often takes an indifferent article for a chef
d'ceuvre, and is childishly fond of tricky execution,
it seldom if ever mistakes the chef d'ceuvre when
it does arrive. The leaders of these concerts are
Signor Bottesini, the well-known performer on the
double-bass, and Herr Johann Strauss, son of the
Strauss, of Vienna, and certainly not a whit in-
ferior to his father in the management of his band.
We know not how it is—whether the orchestra
knows the hateful number of encores which are
their nightly fate, or whether they don't care to
give the jewels of the great composer to an uned-
ucated public—certain it is that the same band
which seems led by Morpheus, until Herr Strauss
appears, seems touched up by Manns as soon as he
raises his bow. Fifty performers? A hundred
musicians ? Listen ! It is one man, one instrument
set in motion by that little man in the middle, who
fiddles like the best of them. Dance music ? Why,
the orchestra itself feels inclined to dance ; cer-
tainly not one of the audience but feels the Taran-
tula bite acting on his frame, and scarcely a foot
in this assembly of serious Britons but twitches
with a longing to rush into a waltz— and such
waltzes ! There is real music in them. There is
meaning, there is art in every phrase. So
.unlike
the every-day lack-a-daisical compositions our
London bandmasters are continually forcing us to
accept, in which for one occasionally pretty con-
ception one meets with a dozen sets of scored
vacancy which will do for dancers in a crowded
ball-room, but can only be listened to with pain
and vexation of spirit.

OPENING OF TIIE MEDICAL SCHOOLS.—On the Ist
of October, what may be called a high medical festival is
annually held in London, for on that day the session of the
educational departments of the great hospitals is opened.
According to custom, therefore, yesterday each of the
medical schools was inaugurated by an address from some
man of mark chosen from tho staff of the hospital.

- , b......•

the more likely is this to be the case, for it is the
characteristic of ignorance to be guided, and know-
ledge to run alone. Therefore in ignorance some
are less likely to cry one thing and some another ;
whereas reason will surely lead its votaries into this.
Yet whether for good or for evil, a great portion of
Christendom has brought reason into play in the
discussion of religious topics, and it would be wise
in the bishops not to ignore this fact, but first
agreeing amongst themselves, to lay down the re-
sults they arrive at, backed not only by so great a
weight of authority, but also with as great a weight
of reason and argument, when they will have ac-
complished all that man can, which is, that most,
men will cry one thing, and be regardless of those
who cry another. —Anglo- American 7 hues.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.

SIR,—We deeply regret to state that an explosion
took place at our powder-mills, Faversham yester-
day, at 11 a.m., when a corning-house and press-
house (separated by two huge brick traverses, which
were intended as an effective barrier to communi-
cation) blew up, and the unfortunate workmen
therein employed, to the number of 11, unhappily
lost their lives. These men were, in point of skill
and remuneration, at the head of that branch of our
works, and our sorrow for their loss is only less
than that of their afflicted families. .

In the present state of public feeling wo think it
proper to say that we have no reasonable suspicion
of anything felonious connected with the catas-
trophe ; we, like others engaged in dangerous
trades, have had hints and warnings of mischief,
and have endeavoured by extra precautions and
watching to provide against it. We hope that sad
as this event is, the coincidence of the explosion
with these anxieties and fears will prove to be a
coincidence and nothing more.

We did not lose a moment in communicating with
the authorities at the Home-office for their infor-
mation and guidance. We are, sir, your obedient

servant,

lOHN HALL AND SON.

French trainer to be allowed to see the horses, as.they will
have to look a long time before they will see another
Gladiateur ; and I am afraid it will be a long time before
Mr. Jennings will be able to fulfil the promise he made to
the bookmakers when they invited him to a grand, dinner
after scratching Gladiateur for the Goodwood Cup. But
to return to the subject. King Alfred's best performance
was in the Criterion, when Loonie only beat him a head
for second place to Rosicrucian; but, as I stet d last week,
Leonio was not herself on that occasion, which made Sir
Joseph's horse look such a clinker, but it 'should be re-
membered that Lictor beat King Alfred the same week,
giving him 51bs., nearly aseasy as Ro.)icrucian did, and Lictor
cut up very, badlyat S hrewsbury, about a week after. Never-
' theless I shall expect King Alfred topay his way next year.
Restitution by King Tom out of Rest's darn is the best-
loAing colt of the lot, and ono that is most likely to im-
prove with time—his first appearance was in the Wood-
cote Stakes, when he ran respectable, considering Isis
backward condition, Innerdale was made a rattling
favourite, but was disappointed in the race, as Edwards
said he got shut in and never could get through his
horses, or he would have won nevertheless. Restitution
did not disgrace himself, but his two next performances
were only moderate, as he was last in the July Stakes to
Lady Elizabeth; he is in the Two Thousand as well as
King Alfred, and I fully expect both those horses will win
races before the year is over, and if they should improve
with time, some good ones too ; and I promise your
readers to keep them well posted with their doings from
Newmarket, as "he that will have a cake out of wheat
must tarry the grinding."

THE WAR IN PARAG&AY.

The news from the Brazils and the seat of war in
Paraguay, brought by the French packet via Bor-
deaux, are of the greatest importtince, not only to
the belligerents themselves, but to the commercial
world at large, and particularly so to England, who
has so vast an amount of capital invested in these
countries.

The finances of the Allies, particularly Brazil,
have suffered to an enormous extent through this
long-protracted war, which as yet has brought them
no laurels. According to a speech made by one of
the Brazilian Deputies in the Chambers at Rio,
Senator Silveira da Motta, voting for an issue of
of 145 millions of paper money, said :—" I vote for
the proposition of the noble Minister. I vote for
this pest of paper money. I vote for the emission
of 145 millions, and if the Minister asks for more
I will still vote for more. This war, this frightful
calamity, which could so easily have been avoided,
must appear in history followed by all its misfor-
tunes, like an immense funeral cortege." And
this war is far from being ended. We do not
believe there is in the whole world a country
with so scant a population as Brazil which has such
an enormous amount of paper money in circulation,
amounting now to the immense sum of five hundred
millions. The news by the French mail are a series
of military operations, which have up to the latest
date ended in a fatal defeat of the Allies and the
complete destruction of all their stores, provisions,
barracks, and magazines.
On the 29th of October last the Brazilians sent a
force of nearly 5,000 men, infantry and cavalry, to
take possession of a large Paraguayan pasture
