yay Such was really the case, and hear that II tn
wounded prisoner had been left at Villa San Giovanni
his life would have been spared. From this fact we
may infer that the Ee8pOlitans are not changed ana
that they intend 10 carry on war OF exterhaIlon.
You NAV depend upon il that they will get the worst
of it. When the NeapoltaDs retired, MAJOR

gagged in manning vessels and boats, collecting troops
and erecting new batteries. Major Mssori's squ4dre
has been greatly increased, and lie stated that II NUN
bers already SO good fighting men. This evening
we saw large fires liz up the ridges which are above
the forts Of Scyla and Del Cavao, and over the VII
lsges of Villa San Giovanni and Calico. They are
signals that Mlssori makes to the General from the
Caiabrisn side of the strait. Tomorrow the packet
starts for England, and shall not fail to add post
script TO my letter If there Is any news OF consequence
AUGUsT 12-Mornng.-An attack on the Fort Of
Scya was probably made last night by MissoI sparty,
which now numbers 900 men, for about 1880 brisk
firing was heard in that direction and il lasted TIL
Las. The heavy boom of artillery and the rattle OF
mus kerry were distinctly heard through the stiffness OF
a splendid moonlight night At the first shot heard,
the alarm trumpet sounded from the citadel, but no
bombardment hae yet taken place. When the action
began on the extreme point Of the Gulf at Fort Scy a
the Nea ,oltan cruisers fired rockets every moment,
seamiDg up and down the gulf. They did not, how
ever fire against Garibadis batteries OF Faro Point,
or on the boats which hear were conveying more
armed expeditions to the Calabran coast. Is stated
that the landing of those expeditions protected by the
darkness Of the evenDgthe moon did not rise till hall
past twelve O'cock-was successful effected at three
different points of II opposite coast What is certain
s that as the set bontres were distinctly
seen all soDg the ridges above the Caabrlan villages
of Villa San Giovanni and Calico. No doubt those
Calabian equadre, which has hosted the flag OF the
national cause If Mssor has succeeded in capturing
the Fort OF ScyDa Garbadi will be able to the
etrat and the landing of the whole of his army can
be accomplished in comparative safety. Whether
his is the case shal be able TO tell you IN my next
etter.
