The Echo of Octobei 18 has received a copy of the following letter from Major Canzio, the son-in-law Cf Garibaldi: "I thank you from the bottom of my heart for your last letter. The fJeneral left Caprera on the 6th, and arrived at St. Bonifacio, In Corsica, from whence he embarked for Marseilles: the ri-st you know. For me, I have abandoned all my a (fairs in Genoa, and left my wife and children. I have telegraphed to Menoui, and Informed him of all. The General was detained a prisoner at Caprera, as was stated In the icho, the island being surrounded bv three ships of war, and an active wntch established'neartbe Gene ral's house; but believing that the General would not go to France, the Italian Government removed the surveillance; then it was that the Republican Government sent a special Invitation to tne General, Which he accepted.". His Arrival In Tour. The correspondent of the London Telegraph writes from Tours, October 9: This morning we had a sensation. Standing at the door of my hotel about 8 o'clock I became aware of a commotion unaccustomed in this peaceful town. There were a hurrying and a racing, a shout ing and tossing up of caps, unwonted, nay, shock ing, on the part of the Tourangeaux. A band of francs-tlreurs passed quickly by, with lient brow and resolute step. The excited public trooped be hind, (something, I said, is in the wind, and I has tened to join the escort. We marched swiftly down the public avenue, and came to those iron gates of the Prefecture which I have not beiore seen open; indeed, from scraps of conversation overheard, the event seems rarely to have happened In human memory. "Tuns.''" growled a bloum trotting beside me, "who ever saw the Prefecture gardens before?'1 lint the gates were wide enough this morniug, and rapidly we all pressed through. It was a lovely autumn Sunday. The wind was high, and, as we passed along the weedy walks, it dashed in our faces a shower of dead leaves wet with the night dews. Between unteuded flower-beds and Bhrub berics unkempt we wound our way, until the broad white facade of the Prefecture shone through the trees. Already on the broad walk before its windows stood in line the francs-tireurs; and many a town man, all agape, was soaking his boots in the wet grass. I stood with the re-it, not knowing any more than them what was to happen. Then suddenly, at a low window on one side, appeared a kindly face, not older than when I saw it last, five years ago, in Pall Mall, but perhaps more gentle, more lovable than ever. It did not need then the shouting of the crowd to tell me what it was that we had come out to sue. Scarcely is there a child in Christendom who does not know the face of Garibaldi. Could there have been any doubt, the loose grey cloak and the scarlet shirt beneath would nave taken it away. In clear, sonorous tones, and with much lessaceent than I had expected, the Liberator said : "My children, your welcome and that of your brothers overwhelms me. I am oniy a soldier like yourselves. 1 come to place mvself among yon to light for the holy Republic !" Then we all shouted again, and the General looked up and down the ranks with that happy smile which belongs only to him. M. Cremleux's brown, weazened face now pushed up into notice, and we cheered for him also. Me took the great Italian by the hand, and patted him on the back, so to speak; but we did not pay much attention to M. Cremleux. And at last, after loitering about a while, we went back through the dew-laden Bhrubberies, and left Garibaldi to repose after his long favel. A MODEL OFFICE-HOLDER.

A correspondent of the Toledo Blade writes from Cue venue: "The old girl known out here as Shr-Ann has for gotten her tilcks and reckless turbulent moods of youthful days. She is apparently in artuntlotnortu, though there are about oue thousand people who are making a lugubrious effort to suHtaiu her life and their own.

MAJOR TELVERTON. The New Lord Avon more. 'Viscount Avonmore is dead; Major Yelverton succeeds to the title," is the brfef telegram which recalls a chtpter or recent romance that is known to half the world.; The Yelvertons, Lords of Avonmore, are neither a very ancient nor a very distinguished race ; yet two of them have attracted attention In t Heir day Parry Yelverton, the fonnder of the house, and Major Charles Yelverton, R. A., at present entitled to its honors. Barry Yelverton was an Irish lawyer in days when a steady hand and a sure shot were as necessary to advancement as eloquence or knowledge of the books though a contemporary of the brilliant Irishmen of the last century could not hope for eminence unless he was both eloquent and learned, leiverton snot and read and drank his way up to the highest honors of tho Irish bar. He was a "new man," hut he died a peer, and he had been lxird Chief uaron or tne .xcnenuer. lie was one ol those fortunate Irishmen who lived at the time of the I'Dion "lortunate because he had a country to sell.'' Wore distinguished, at least more notorious, than any who have since worn tbe pearled coronet of Aven- more Is the present peer, better known as Major Charles Yelverton, of the Royal Artillery, a distin guished Crimean soldier, a wearer of the Victoria Cross, "an otllcer and gentleman," and defendant in the cause eelebre of "TUelwall vs. Yelverton." It is some twelve yea's since that famous case was de cided in the common Pleaa of Dublin, decided by jury and by popular vote in favorof thereat plain tiff, Teresa Longworth. On the record the plaintiff was a Yorkshire trader, and the plaint that major xeiverton refused to pay ror necessa ries supplied to his wife to the extent of 187. The answer was a simple denial of the alleged relationship between himself and Miss Long worth, and au assertion that she had been his mis tress. They had met In the Crimea, where Miss Longworth had acted as a volunteer aurae. Subse quently tbey met again, and tho personal charms and rare uccompllshments of the lady conquered the Crimean nero. as ne conresscd arterwards, he sought her ruiu, but was unsnccessful, and then on two occasions went through a form of marriage once in Scotland, per verba de presenti, and once in tne pleasant urtie village oi Kosstrevor, on caning ford Lough, in Ireland. By a subterfuge he satisfied the clergyman, for it is still a felony In Ireland lor a Catholic priest to bless the marriage of a rrotestant aud a Papist. They travelled toiretlier as man and wife, but after a time events took the old course; the Major deserted Miss Longworth ami married Mrs. Forbes, the widow of the distinguished professor tuwarn jroroes. lneiwauvs. xeiverton was tried to decide whether in fact Teresa Long north was wife or mistress. Whiteside, now Chief- dnstice oi ireiuna, ana tne most distinguished advocates of the Irish bar were arraved on each side, and on the bench waa the keenest Irish lawyer of his day. Chief Justice Mouahan. The Jury found for the plain 1IT that there was a Scotch mar riage, and that there was an IrUu marriage. Major leiverton escaped tnrougn a bkio uoor, ana nis wire was drawn in her carriage by relays of Irishmen, after the manner in which Dublin does honor to its favorites. That was the hour of triumph of Teresa Yelver ton, nee Longwortlu Thenceforward her life was a series of lawsuits. In Scotland and in the House of Lords her title to the name of wife was contested step by step, and fought as bravely by her. But though her touching letters brought tears of admi ration to tne eyes or cnanceuors aua ex-cnanoeiiors, and her own personal advocacy in forma pau))cria might have touched sterner hearts than Lord Colonsay's, she was cast, and her mo tion as "pursuer" was denied. To commence the light over again was indeed possible, but pecu niarily and physically it was wiser forj her to yield, for a legal triumph would have added nothing to the sympathy extended to her, no more than the victory of Major Yelverton h lawyer relieved him from the universal odium which his candid avowals and his course brought down on him. Mrs. Yelverton, for so the popular verdict still named her, prac tically abandoned her "pursuit.'' She appeared on the lecture Btage aa reader both here and In Oreat lirltaln. At home, where she waa better known, she had a more certain success than here. Or Majoi Lord Avonmore all trace has been lost; he has been dt ad to society, and for years in the legal proceedings against him service by attorney has boen subBtitBted. Where he Is, whether In Aus tralia or In this country, no one knows. It is not Im possible that the press telegram of this morning will be the first announcement he will receive of his pre sent honor a title which la never likely to conceal the fact that the new Lord Avonmore is Major the Hon. Charles Yelverton ofThel wall vs. Yelverton. TUE INDIANS. Missionary Laboro inertia of the Episcopal Hoard ol ITllaaloao. The New Y'ork Times of to-day says: The Episcopal Board of Missions, which has been in session here during the past few days, had a mis sionary meeting last evening in the Church of the Incarnation, Maolson avenue and Thirty-nfti street, bihhops Potter.

But tbey are driven from place to place. They are all eager and willing to work, and many of them have little ten-acre plots sowed with corn and otner grain.

Prince Napoleon, who is in this city, has written a long communication to the London journals, which appears this morning, contradicting the charges recently made by the Daily Ats, impugning his loyalty to the Emperor and Empress. He denies having seen either General Bourbakl or General Boyer, who came to England on a mission from Bazaine to the Empress. He saya he repeated personally to the Empress the expression of his devotion and fidelity. The Investment of Verdna. The Prussians Investing Verdun recently sent a communication to the Mayor of the town de manding Its surrender. The Mayor indignantly refused, inviting the Prussians, if they thought the town was to become an easy prey, to come forward and take it. The military situation on tho. Loire is un changed. The New from Metz is interesting and important. Rumors had again been current in the Prussian army investing that city that General Bazaine was dead, but they are now proved to have been false. The activity of the garrison had greatly Increased lately, and the Prussians have been compelled to destroy the bridge at Ars-sur-Moscllo as a precautionary measure. The French make vigorous sorties whenever they see the slightest opportunity for an advantage. They have also reopened their artillery fire on the besiegers from the right bank of the Moselle, whereby the little villages of Grlgny and Coincy, which gave the Prussians shelter, have been utterly destroyed. aitcs i oi a uipiomaiMi.

It was he who delivered to the Prussian Govern ment the French declaration of war. He was regarded as a prisoner of war, and was Bent to Mayeuce. Toura to be Abandoned by the French Govern ment.

Arrangements are now making for transferring the national headquarters to Clermont, in the Department of Puy-de-Dome. The Prussian Starvation Policy. The Prussians are persevering in their starva tion policy at Paris and Metz. All fugitives from these cities are rigorously turned back. Tho Hale Conduct of Thiers. The English Government is still (at noon) without a reply from the Prussian authorities J,o the request for a safe conduct for M. Thiers to enable him to enter Paris. England accepts this delay as an indisposition on the part of Prussia to grant an armistice. Later-fll. Thiers Allowed to Urn to Versailles, uui no r uriner. Tours, Oct. 27. It is announced here to-day that the Prussians have at last consented to offer M. Thiers a safe conduct to Versailles, but no further.

FROM EUROPE. The Pafe Conduct to M. Thiers. Torus, Oct. 27. Thus far no safe conduct has been forwarded from the Prussian head quarters for Thiers. It Is asserted here that Prussian disinclination In this respect proceeded from fear of having tho Parisians informed of the true state of affairs elsewhere In France. The Prussians thus far have taken extraordi nary pains to conceal from the beleaguered city the capacity of France for resistance. From all parts of the country there cornea but one ex pressionthe hope that tho Government will accept No Hunilllatlnc Conditions as the price of peace. The journals of this city are unanimous that the only hope for fair terms lies In an indefinite prosecution of the war. The Prussian s In the East of France. In the east the Prassian army has been sud denly and decisively stopped, lneir marcn upon Lyons has been checked by the victories of the French under Garibaldi.

The bulldlug Is appa sently three stories in height, but the three upper stories are really all in one, and were need for stretching muslin to dry in long strips, reaching from tne uoor to tue root, it was in this room that tbe fire broke out, and the burst ing Into sudden blaze of so large a quantity of inflammable material It Is supposed caused tbe sound like an explosion, the suddenly rarifled air bursting the windows, it seems impossible to account for it on any other hypothesis, as there was nothing of nn explosive character in the building. The origin of the lire is un known, but it is possible some greasy rags maj' nave been leit mere ana become ignited by spontaneous combustion. Cuite a large quantity of wet muslin in the lower story of tbe building was saved, but all the dry muslin in tbe drying-room waa de stroyed, as were also 160 barrels of flour stowed In the first story. The flour was of common quality, being used for stiffening in finishing the muslin. The machinery was much warped and injured. There was no insurance on this, and the loss on it added to the loss on the mill and stock will amount to nearly 1 10. 000. The stock is insured for $3000 in the Farmers' Mu tual Insurance Company, and for $2500 In the New Castle County Mutual. The latter com pany also has a policy of $2500 on the building.

Tbe latter complained that he went int . defendant's beer-saloon, down town, and the defendant, without cause, struck mm upon tne neaa and laoe wita a blackiack. knocking several teeth out of his mouth. The defense denied this, and alleged that plaintiff was ordered to leave tne premises, ami upon reius lucr to do so was put out. no unnecessary or unu- Kual force being used, and that plaintiff was subject to fits, and lost his teeth by falling to the ground while suffering from one of them. The plaintiff, an aged Irishman, waa asked by his counsel if he waa a married man, and in a very doleful manner re plied. "No, sir, I waa never married la my life." Judge Stroud aptly said: ' Well, I don't very well understand how you could have been married at any other time," causing infinite amusement to tne attorneys ana spectators.

An effort is evidently being made in New Iork to create an artificial stringency of currency with a view of "bulling" gold and "bearing" stocks, but we are inclined to believe that the close working of the market here Is due to natural causes and doubts of the future.
