From lTALY.-Deperate Conflict at Fol
ta1no.-By the English papers of the 18th
inst, we learn that desperate battle had
taken place at Volturno The Neapolitans
estimated at 80, 900 strong. attacked the
Garlbaldians first, under the cover of
thick mist, carried some ositions. ard for
time succeeded in driving back the Carl
baldians, whose number did not reach half
of theirs. Garibaldi went forward, re-
volver in hand, and after desperate fight
OF eight hours duration the Noapolitans
were broken and routed, and pursued close
under the walls of Capua. The brigade
OF Germans was cut off and driven to the
mountains. The Garibaldians took 5000
prisoners. l. is estimated that the Nea-
politans had 5000 men killed and woun-
ded, and the Garbaldians from 1900 to
| 1000.
The Royalists subsequently made sor-
tie to rescue the German brigade. but
were repulsed
The King of Naples and brothers were
present at the battle.
There were contradictory rumors in cir
cuiaton that Capua had surrendered, and
also that the bombardment was PROCESS
| ing, but neitt er are confirmed
The line of the Voturno are strongly
protected, and it is said that the Neapoli-
tans are prepared to defend their posi-
tons. Some Sandman troops assisted the
Garlbaldlans. Garibaldi had called on
the hing of Sardinia to 90 to Naples and
also send IN n 1000 men imme liately.
he Pledmontese troops had enter, d
the Neapolltan territory and reported that
three OF the Great Powers protested
against it.
Mazzini, byrcquest of the Pro-Dictator,
had quilted Naples. Affairs in the Papal
States remain unchanged.

A NEW MOTIVE PowER.-The Paris cor.

that the whole of the scientific world is in
state of revolution at the bare prospect
OF the success obtainable by NJ Lenoir' 5
new motive power He has simply utili-
zed the principle of the expansion of all
when at lofty temperature, by means of
combustion through the spark Of induction
OF hydrogen. The economy produced is
calculated at not less than forty per cent.
by the suppression Of the boiler, the
chimney and the other accessories hitherto
used IN the cons ruction of steam engines
The machinery itself offers saving of
thirty per cent. This new machine, which
seems to realize every dream of the IN
ventor and manufacturer, by Offering an
immense result of power in exchange for
a merely nominal supply of fuel, is about
to be tried on some of the French rail-
ways.

SINGULAR AND HORRIBLE ACCIDENT
At Birmingham, Conn, on Saturday last,
Mr.. Henry Hatton, an operative in
Alessrs Atwater's Iron and Steel Works,
while at work rolling" was accidentally
pierced through the upper portion of his
lie thigh with a fve-eighth inch oval bar
OF iron, red hot, or more properly at what
is ca led white heat. The rod grazed
the bone, seyering the femoral artery and
being twenty-five feet long, fifteen of it
passed through the flesh before it could be
cut and the short end withdrawn from the
limb. A remarkable presence of mind in
one of the workmen arrested the otherwise
fatal hemorrhage, by cording the limb
above the wound, and conveying the I'M
fortunate man to his resdedce. He is
now in very low condition, and feeble
hopes are entertained O. his recovery.
