Near Pa8soCorf.sk. Nov. , 1887 On San
day, November 3, in accorcinuce with an order
of the daj, issued hj Mfnottl Garibaldi, tae
entire force started Tor Tivoli, leaving only a
garrison at Monte. Botonlo. Uaribaldi hd evi
dently conBideied mat Tivoli wa a stronger
place than Monte hotondo; more difficult of
accesn; more sale from both the Papal and the
Italian troops. He tuougbt that Nicotera was
there with his baud, and that a Junction could
be easily effected. A glance at the map will
show the relative ad vantage of the two posi
tions. But in this plan there was one fatal
weakness, arising from the lack of proper watch
fulness, proper vedettes, and necessary scouts
and outposts in the Garibaldian army. Appa
rently, the Papnl troops had notlelt Rome, but
were still cooped up there, waiting- to be at
tacked. Really, these troops had marched out
eo soon as the French arrived; had retaken
Tivoli at the point of the bayonet, and wete at
that moment advancing to attack Monte Ro
tondo on the very road that Garibaldi had
chosen tor his Sunday parade.
In previous letters I nave described to you the
utter lack ol military discipline, soldierly senti
nels, and warlike strictness in the Garibaldlan
camp. The camp was a military picnic; the
march towards Tivoli was a holiday stroll. He
who calls Garibaldi a general singularly mis
takes the meaning of the term. Out of Moute
Rotondo the picturesque troop tramped, the
crave General leading the irregular column.
Garibaldi rode among the men. His two sons
were at the head of their battalions. About
forty extempore cavalrymen, in all sorts of
uniforms and with all sorts ol arms, were about
the middle of the column, instead of scouring
the road in front. The two pet held pieces, cap
tured at Monte Rotondo, were in the rear, ad
mired, as usual, by the men. T!ie day was sun
shiny and most pleasant. Everybody was in
nigh glee. Presently the men began to sing the
little Italian song adopted by the Garibaldians
when they chose "Rome or Death"-lor their
mistress. It runs:
"M'hal chlamatoe son vennto,
t'ho aspettatosluu a tardl."
Garibrldi himself joined in the singing, and his
followers were In ecetaciee. "You have called
me and I come to yon," the song may be freely
translated; "but I have waited long and it Is
late." The Garibaldians sung it under the walls
of Rome after the victory at Monte Rotondo,
but Rome made no response. This fatal Sunday
they were unconsciously serenading Death, who
came only too soon to welcome them.
Imagine, if you can, the tuirty-ttve hundred
ioyous Garibaldians, nappy at having their
eader in their midst, singing along the country
road, in the bright sunshine, near the tiny vil
lage of Montana, not many miles froai Monte
Rotondo, the varied uniforms and want of uni
forms bewildering the eye, their bayonets
glancing over the uneven ranks as they moved
along in the most dellightful, but most un mill
Bary disorder.. Suddenly there came the roar
ot cannon, the crash of musketry, and then a
fierce bayonet charge of sturdy zouaves. In
many a throat the song ended in a death-rattle
or changed to a shriek. In a moment Garibaldi
perceived the trap into which he had led his
men so gaily, and he was nearly insano from
lury. The Papal troops, marching in mili
tary style from Tivoli, with pioneers and skir
mishers well in advance, had heard the approach
ot the singing Garibaldians, and had silently
prepared for their reception.
The Antibes Legion had been deployed for a
flank tire; twelve pieces of artlllerv had been
placed in battery across the road, and the
Zouaves were drawn up for a charge. The
surptise was complete, the disaster irreparable.
One hundred Garibaldians fell at the first fire,
and most of these were Genoese veterans, each
worth a score of new recruits. Garibaldi
rallied his men for a counter fire, and twenty-
rw J fir I - i i
Beven Ziouaves were s.tueu, uoiu was tout vu
the rear; the Garibaldians deployed into the
fields, and on the hill sides, and the serious
fighting begau and continued for four hours.
But, in truth, the fight cannot be cabled a
battle. The Garibaidians had no chanoe after
that first terrific volley, and most of them
knew it.
Yet, imitating Garibaldi himself, who rode
recklessly up and down in the hottest of the
fire, courting death, but wholly unhurt, the
Garibaldians performed pfodigies of valor. All
who were cowardly among them ran away at
the first, crying 'The French! The Frensh!"
and carried their story to Terni. Those who
remained cried "Garibaldi!" and "A Roma!'
and sealed their courage with the best blood of
Italy. The two little neia pieces taken at oionte
Rotondo, served by inexperienced artillerists,
fired twenty-seven rounds, and were only cap
tuifd after a succession of beroio struggle!.
Twenty-seven Ganbald'ans beld a line of tence
against the whole Antibes Legion, and only
gave it up when they were fairly swamped by
numbers. Garibaldi, with one hundred and
nltr men, faced the entire Papal force for one
lust effort, and had to be dragged away by his
friends. The Papal Zouave., too. fought with
unexpected bravery. All the Garibaldians
acknowledge this.
The Antibes Legion did not do so much nor
eo well. The Zouaves, always accused hitherto
of being afraid to meet the 'Garihaldiaus hand
to hand, charged repeatedly with the bayonet.
and seemed to prefer that work. Intheme'ee
tee papal artillery did Immense execution, the
men loading oud Brine as it on parade. The
J'udhI and the Garibaldian forces were about
eauallv matched as to numbers, but at no time
alter the first fire was there any considerable
fluctuation in the fortunes ot toe day. An un
disciplined mob against reenters, condemned
muskets against the finest ur ns, twelve cannon
sgainst two field pieces there oould only bo one
ending to such a match.
At lialf-pftJ 2 o'clock tile retreat of the Gari.
baldians became general, Garibaldi being led olf
by his own men. liiccjotti, wUo behaved with
unsurpassed courage, and Metiotti, who was
tdieutly wounded in the lg, attended their
father. The Papal troop, leaving a guard over
the killed and wounded, followed in hot pursuit
to Monte Rotondo, firing upon the fugitives, and
thooting them down like game. But a brief halt
was made at Monte Rotondo, the wounded in
botpital there, and tbe numerous stores of pro-
vision being left bv the Garibal Jians, who were
chased down the hill to the main road, bat who
wire now scattering and living over the country
in all ditections. .
The Papal troops did not advance far up the
road towards Oorese, having evidently received
instructions not to approach too near the IUnan
troops on the lrontier. BbhUob, darkness now
beean to tall, "those of tbe Garibaldians who
had not thrown awav their arms in the retreat,
which had now become a complete rout, euve
them up to the Italian regulars as tbey passed
over the little bridge which has been described
in former letters, aud set foot ouce more on
Italian soil. As matters were regulated a tittle,
the officers were allowed to retain ibmr swords
...a mn their Drivate arms. Some wounded
were brought in, but most had to be let t whete

in kil.ed and wounded was severe; in prisoners,
none.
AtCorese the confucion Ut evening was in
describable. Mo t ot the fugitives took at once
to the road for Tcrnl. The slightly wounded
were 'attended to by their comrades and the
surgeon ot tbe Italian regular. Tbe officers ot
the regulars had a most difficult duty to per
form, but behaved with the utmost considers
tlon and discrimination. I believe that they
would have been willing to cross the frontier
and aid the (jsnbalutms bad the rirnt reports
that the French were in the fight been correct;
but this error, circulated by lellows who ran
away at the beginning of the combtt, was soon
corrected by tho?e who had beeu near enough
to seo tbe Papal troops. Some of the French
army may have voluutfered; some of tbe Papal
unliorins resemble those of the French, and
some Garibaldians declare that they could bear
the quick repeating tire of the CoasMesot rifle;
but, atier consulting tbe best authorities here,
I am justified In asserting that there was not a
French regiment or comp'any on the field.
Garibaloi was conveyed away from Coreee by
a special train last night. His personal friends
and his two sous accompanied him. Nobody
was allowed to approach him after bts arrival
here; but It is raid that he did not speak a word
after leaving the battle-field until just before
the departure of the train, when he beeged his
friends to let him take a thousand men and
rccross the frontier. He looki prematurely
aged. In one day he seems eighty years old,
and they think that his mind is atlected. There
are not one thousand Garibaldians left to accom
pany him anywhere. Except the small force
with Acerbi, near Viterbo (which will retreat at
once), not one is left on Papal soil, unless as a
prisoner or a dead man. The invasion is over;
the Papal victory is final.
As was to have been expected, the sturdy fel
lows from Genoa, Venice, Milan, and Turin are
conceded to havo done the most of the fighting
at tbe battle of Montana. I remember them welt.
Every one of them had ODe, two or three Garl
balciian medals on his breast, showing that he
bad served In former cam paierns. Few, very few,
are among the captives. Tbe Tuscans, who were
mostly boys, fled first and fought least when they
were rallied. As tbe men paes me I look in their
faces, and it Is sickening to find so few whom I
recognize. Where arc the dashing young fel
lows, so proud of their new costumes, who
thronged the courtyard at Castel Giubeleo?
Where are the gallant Venetians who had come
so far to die so uselessly, and who, laughing at tho
fifty miles tramp before them, trudged merrily
away for the front only a week ago 7 Where are
the open hearted oflicers who shared their bread
and cheese and the scanty half of their beds as
lreelywith a stranger, if he were "a veritable
republican," ns if they had known htm all their
lives f Gone, and lo record left but general
euloeiuma and indiscriminate admiration. In
Garibaldi's army there were no muster rolls;
Lis heroes may not even have the fame of a
name spelt wrongly in the gazette; you can only
tell who are dead by knowing who have not
returned. From the outset this invasion of
Rome has been a mad business conducted in a
road way, and it has ended terribly, May
Heaven forgive those who are responsible for it,
beginning with Garibaldi !
Tba Wounded and the Effect.
Tebni, Nov. 6. This little old town has now
been transformed into a Garibaldian hospital.
The wounded who have succeeded in reaching
Corese from the battle fields of Montana and
Monte Rotondo are being brought up in special
trains from Corese, and the footsore and weary
heroes who come tramping in from over the
bills, require care and attention almost as much.
Father Uavazzt, who will be remembered as a
lecturer in England and America several years
ago, is here in cnarge oi ine nospitais. Mrs.
Chambers is expected hourly. The authorities
of the town have done everything in their power
to furnish proper accommodations and provi
sions; but the best is very bad.
The scenes at the station on the arrival of tbe
trains of wounded are heartrending. Weeping
women, waiting for their sons, husbands bro
thers, and fathers, fill the air with their cries
when their loved ones are lifted out of the cars,
or when they do not appear among the poor,
wan faces, and again the harrowing thought
returns that perhaps they may be dead.
Some of tbe best people from this part
of Italy have gone with the Garibaldians.
1 saw one private in the ranks who owns an
iron mine and a foundry. The regular soldiers
who garrison this town are very good to the
wounded Gaiibaldians, turning out in the mid
dle of the night to carry them up to the hospi
tals. The station is strongly guarded, but no
body is interfered with. Garibaldi himself
passed through Terni In a special train on Mon
day morning early, but was not arrested. Num
bers of returned Garibaldians .leave by every
train for Florence. It is almost impossible to
get a seat in the cars. The officers wear their
arms and the men their uniform hats or shirts;
but all the fight is taken out of them. They are
soldieis no longer.
To-day the news has been received that Acerbi
nas withdrawn his forces from Viterbo. This
leaves not a single Garibaldian in the Papal
States. It is reported that, before leaving,
Acerbi sacked tbe the treasury chest of Viterbo,
and levied a contribution upon the town in the
name of the Provisional Government of the
Roman Republic. If this be true, and every
body seems to believe it, at least one of tbe
Gaiibaldians has adopted tbe policy formerly In
vogue in Mexico, aud has managed to make a
a little money out of his campaign.
Tbe Garibaldlan leaders here assert, upon
.what T think to be excellent authority, that the
King of Italy has been in correspondence with
the Pope of Rome during the whole Invasion,
and they denounce his Majesty wtth great rigor
and threaten a revolution. I find no such feel
ing, however, among the people of Italy erene
rully. If I wanted to make a revolution in
Italy I would arm each man with a whitewash
brush, and each woman with a broom; in a
week no native would kuow the country. At
Turin somebody has mutilated tbe statue of tbe
king, breaking the sword in his hand and
stoning tbe figure, and this incident is referred
to by leading Garibaldians with Immense
unctioa. It may mean a great deal or nothing;
but the Government is preparing for eventuali
ties, orders havlDg been imed to-day to with
draw the troops from the Papal frontier, and
jiaiton inem w tU9 venous cities, ,
The Menebrea ministry has a policy, and is
carrying it out boldly, and whether this policy
be right or wrong, they deserve credit for
enforcing it. In two days they stopped all the
Garibaldians recruiting; within a week they
have been able to disarm the Garlbaldia-is at
the frontier. The change seems to me like a
dream; it Is eo sudden and complete. If France
will truht this Ministry, and withdraw her
troops from Rome, we may yet see Italy recover
from ber humiliation, and settle the Roman
question peaceably, honorably, and satisfacto
rily. We have had no snch strong Goveruvnont
since Cavoui's time.
Tha End. Kg
FiotiNK, Noy. 5. Garibaldi, hlB tons, and
several of his officers, arrived here by special
train from Corese yesterday morning. This is a
small town within a tew miles of Florence.
Upon his arrival lieutenant-colonel ot the
regular army went up to tho car aud informed
him that the Government had issued an
order tor his arrest, and that he was to
be snt to bpezeta. Garibaldi got out of the
rar, looking quite demented, drew a revolver,
and said: "You see that I am armed; but I will
not resist von. Onlv I will not surrender. r.
took him by the legs and arms and lilted htm
into the car. The train then started off. Gari
baldi being nnder guard. . His sons will not
accompany him to Spezzia.
It is satd to-day that tho English embasy at
Florence has asked the Italian Government
to trcHt Garibaldi with lcuieucy, and that tbe
Government has aereed to do so. Tbe most
lenient treatment would probably be bis con
finement tn a lunatic asylum, lor he acts com
pletely unlike bts loimcf self, and Is now more
dangerous to his friends than to bis enemies.
It was sad to ee the wreck of so brave
a man ; but he has left many a fol
lower quite as brave, stark and stiff upon Papal
territory after be knew that further fighting was
useless. Italy has now but one danger to lear
the danger of revolution against the King. If
that ran be successfully surmounted, tbe Roman
question will be settled bv diplomatists, and
Italy will secure her coveted capital alter all;
for it Is Impossible that -France alone can sus
tain the Pope aeainst the public opinion of the
rest of the civilized world, when that opinion is
pressed In a legitimate wsy, and not bv gangs
of guerillas. Let us hope that Garibaldi's future
may hsve that sequel. JV, Y. herald.
WASHINGTON' GOSSIP.
A Romance and a Wedding- A Belgian
Baron Harriot a Traaoury Clarkass.
Washington, Nov. 21. The monotony of
poclal life iu Washington was relieved to-day by
an event of ratber uncommon occurrence In
these unpoetlcal times. . In the Church of the
Epiphany, an Episcipal place of worship, Barou
Henri Van Havre, Secretary ot the Belgian Lega
tion, was uuited in wedlock to Miss Camilla
Webb. The history of the attachment which
led to this happy consummation embraces a con
siderable degree of the romautic element. Tbe
Raron, who is connected with one of the most
aristocratic and wealthy families of Belgium,
came here a few years ago as Secretary of Lega
tion. He is about thirty years of ace, tall and
commanding in appearance, and an ardent lover
of poetry and music. About six months after
his arrival he happened to pay a visit to the
Treasury Department, and in tbe course ot his
inspection of our financial machinery be became
interested with the beauty of the lady to whom
he was married to day. Miss Camilla Webb was
acleikin the office of the Comptroller of the
Currency. She was born in the southern part
ot Virginia, and came to Washington about five
years ago. She was accompanied by her
widowed mother, and though in comparatively
poor circumstances, they were known to some
of the most respectable society here. The
Baron effected an introduction to Miss Webb,
and considerable Intimacy followed. About
a year ago he returned to Europe and
travelled extensively over the Con
tinent. After spending about five
months there he resolved on coming back to
this country, impelled by a desire to express his
attachment to .Miss Webb, having failed to find
abroad any more attractive object. Three days
ago the wealthy and aristocratic Barou, accom
panied by bis intended bride, Mies Webb, and
attended by a party of intimate friends, pro
ceeded to the Catholic church of St. Aloystus
and had the nuptial ceremony performed. The
Baron is a Catholic and his wife an Episcopa
lian. To-day tho Episcopal ceremony of mar
riage was completed, in presence of a select and
fashionable congregation. The bride, who is
about twenty years ot age, was dressed in pearl
colored silk, and, with her wealth of golden
tresses, bright blonde complexion, and deli
cately chiseled features, created no small degree
of admiration. Among those present on the
occasion were Baron Bioeckl, Russian Minister;
Mr. Cerotti, Italian Minister; Baron Gerolt and
Baron Kusoeraow, ot the PriiHstan Embassy I
Mibs Bolts, Miss Anderson, and Miss Mary Webb,
sister ot the Dride; Mr. .Maurice ueiiosse, the
Belgian Minister; and Mr. Cantagalli, Secretary
of the Italian Legation, acted as groomsmau.
Tbe Rev. Dr. Hall performed the ceremony,
after which both bride and bridegroom received
tbe warm congratulations of their friends. In
the evening they left lor New York, whence they
will sail for Belgium. Jf. Y. Herald.
THE "STELLAR UNIVERSE."
Interesting I.cctnre by Professor John
JkeGonta.
Professor John LeConte, of the University of
South Carolina, delivered the first of a series of
four lectures on the "Stellar Universe," at the
Peabody Institute, on Tuesday evening, the 19th
instant. In this lecture he restricted his atten
tion to an exposition of the methods of deter
mining tbe parallax of the fixed stars, and con
sequently their distance from us. He showed
that the methods used for measuring astronomi
cal dibtance are not abstruse or mysterious;
they are in some applications absolutely the
same as tbe methods of ordinary land surveying,
and are In other applications equivalent to
them. In applying these principles to the de
termination of stellar distances, the whole diffi
culty lies in the extreme minuteness ot the an
gular quau titles which are to be measured . It was
shown that by successive refinements of methods
and instruments, astronomers, after struggling
with this problem for three hundred years, at
last succeeded in pushing their triangulation
across the "great gull" which intervenes be
tween our solar system and tbe nearest of the
fixed star?. Various illustrations were intro
duced to convey to the mind some idea of the
yastness of the distances which the progress of
science and art has thus enabled us to measure.
It was stated that a cannon ball maintaining an
unabatd velocity of 1700 feet per second would
require more than two millions of years to reach
the nearest of the fixed stars I A locomotive
travelling incessantly at the rate of twenty miles
per hour would require more than one hundred
and twenty-two millions of years to accomplish
the same journey ! It would require four times
as long to reach the Dog Star! Tbe following
Illustration was used to give some idea of these
distances: If we represent the dibtance of the
sun from the earth by oue foot, then the distance
from the sun of Neptune would be thirty feet;
sun ot a Cents uri would be 42J miles: sun of 61
Cygni would be 104 J miles; sun ot a Lyra would
be 1414 miles; sun of Slrius would be 170 miles;
sun of Capella would be 849 miles. The stellar
diKtanees were also illustrated by tbe time it
lakes light to traverse the intervening spaces.

Washington, Nov. 22.
Appolntmant of Mr. Cooper as Assistant
The appointment of Edmund Cooper, of Ten
nessee, as Assistant Secretary of the Treasury,
in place of Mr. Chandler, resigned, excites much
discussion here. Bis confirmation by the Senate
is very doubtful, as he is known to be a strong
friend of tbe President, and a warm partisan.
There is talk of abolishing the odice altogether,
the Republicans cannot reach him in any
other way. . Mr. Cooper lives at the White
House, and Is on the most intimate and confi
dential terms with the President, being one of
his family. His nomination was recommended
by Secretary McCulloch, who will doubtless use
all his influence to secure his confirmation by
the Senate; but, even with this assistance, it Is
morally certuin that Mr. Cooper will not get
through.
Why Congress Adjourned.
The reason lor the House adjourning yester
day over till Monday was on account of some
thing having transpired which rendered it
necessary for the Impeachment Committee to
make some alteration in their report; but what
that "something" was has not been developed.
Representative Williams, of Pennsylvania, one
of the members of the Impeachment Committee,
went among the Republican members and
requested an adjournment till Monday, to give
the Committee time to make the necessary
alterations. There was a desire on the
part of the more moderate Republicans
to adjourn as soon as possible, to avoid the issue
which has been made npon the legality of this
additional" session of the Fortieth Coagress.
This was opposed by those in favor of Impeach
ment, as it would have been an admission of the
correctness of the President's theory. But
when the request to adjourn came from the
Impeachment Committee, it was carried without
difficulty. There will be little or no business
done next week, for Thanksgiving Day Inter
venes, and both nouses will probably adjourn
over from Wed need oj till the first Monday In
December.

General Sheppard C. Leakln died at his rest

The European mails by tbe steamship Cuba
brine Intelligence of the death of Richard
O'Gorman, Sr., lather of the Corporation Coun
sel of lew York, Mr. Richard O'Gorman, at his
residence, near Dublin, Ireland, In the eighty
seventh year of his age. Mr. O'Gorman was a
men. ber of an ancient and broadly landed
family in the county of Clore, and was uncle to
the O'Gorman Mabon, for some time a formidable
political rival of O'Connell's, and for many years
member of the British Parliament for Ennis, the
capital of the county of Clare. Mr. O'Gorman
was, In the highest and noblest sense, a patriot
Irishman. In the early struggles for religious
freedom, which culminated In the Emancipation
act of 1829, and which fills so remarkable a page
in Irish history, he bore a conspicuous and
energetic part, aud with eager hand and enthusi
astic heart contributed time, intellect, and
money to tho promotion of the national cause.
Mr. O'Gorman was a true aud firm friend to
O'Connell, and was present on the Curragh of
Klldare on the occasion of the momentous duel
in which the then young agitator shot his
formidable challenger, the Are-eating D'Esterre.
Mr. O'Gorman retired from active political life
soon after the death of O'Connell. He died as
becomes such men, loved by many, respected by
all, full of years and honors, and with his name
enshrined in the hearts cJ all who reverence
the land he loved so deeply and so well. iv. i.
