Conflict Between InsurgentS and the
PapHI TFOOps-PrOOlHmAtI alton OF Carl
baldi.
LONDON, Oct. 4-Mldnight The latest des-
patches received from Italy, though conflicting,
are highly important. message has just been
received from Florence announcing the clash
of arms. The insurgent troops holding strong
position near Bagnarea, in Vterbo, were at
tackled by the Papal forces. A short, sharp
fight ensued, which resulted in the defeat of the
attacking party, who were obliged hastily to
withdraw. The losses in the engagement are not
stated.
The effect of this victory is very inspiriting to
The Party Of Action. A public meeting of the
friends of Garibaldi was held at Turin yester-
day. Revolutionary speeches were made by
many distinguished persons. Great crowds of
people were present, and the enthusiasm was
unbounded. Meetings of like character are in
contemplation in other cities OF Italy.
Though prisoner at Caprera, General Carl
baldi has issued stirring address to his fol-
lowers, which is published to-day all over
Europe. He recites at length the grievances of
Italy, and asks his countrymen to redress them
now. He appeals strongly to their patriotism
and urges all his friends to march forth with to
Rome.

FROM WASHINGTON TODAY.

ESPECIAL DISPATCHES TO EVENING TELEGRAPH. |
WASHINGTON, Oct. Z.
The Mission OF General Sherman-Presi-
dents Last stroke OF Policy.
The friends of johnson deny that Sherman
was ordered here to take the War Office from
Grant, but pretend that he comes simply to talk
about Indian matters with the President No
one here who reads the signs of the times be-
lieves word of this explanation. johnson is
too shrewd to proclaim his plans in advance.
and this story that Sherman is here for an
Indian talk is only a blind to conceal the real
object of his visit. If the elections tomorrow
in Ohio and Pennsylvania result in a victory for
the Republicans, then Sherman will be ordered
back to his post, but if they go the other way
then look out for Grants removal and Sherman
as his successor. This is the whole scheme, and
nothing else can be made out of it.

Government OF Chilli EndOrseds Etc.
New YORK, May 2-The steamship Mary
Chauncey, from Aspinwall April "a, has arrived
bringing $2O6,2l6 in specie, and advices from
Panama to the Esd ult.
The Star and Herald says that General Olarte,
President of the State, in view of the expected
invasion by the forces of Leve de Coda, has
issued orders TO organize the militia and place
them on war footing, and in Panama the en-
lstment is carried on with energy.
The United States steamer Osceola arrived at
Aspinwall on the 10th ultimo, to relieve the
Saco. .....
The Star and Herald denies the report put
forth by the Surgeon of the United States
steamer jamestown, that the yellow fever pre-
vailed at Panama, and says there had been no
disease of the kind there except what was
brought to the harbor by the jamestown.
The same paper says that, owing to the pre-
valence of the cholera to an alarming extent
in Nicaragua, the steamers of the Panama
Railroad Company have ceased, tor the pre-
sent, to take either cargo or passengers for
CeIinto.
Inc steamer huOOlne, seVeral utys ONeIuue
