[From the Giornale Corlituzionale del Refine delk dreCieilie] • NAPLES, JULY 20. On the 16th a tumult took place in the city 4.f Palermo; the troops hastened to re-establish order, but unfortunately the blood of those who ought to love each other as children of the same family was shed. Amidst this melancholy tra gedy, the Neapolitan citizens were religiously respected, and the offenders dud not trample under foot the sacred laws of hospitality. Even those who bad plundered houses restored the articles when informed that they belongeJ to onr citizens. The Sicilians who live at Naples, indignant at the disturbers Of the public pears, who dishonour the name of Sicilian', have, with unanimous consent, this morning taken the oath to the Constitution, in the presence of the hereditary Prince. Neapolitans, let us deplore the errors of our misguided brethren, and lead them back to the paths of honour and moderation. JULY 21. On the 14th instant the vessel pent by the Heredi tary Prince Vicar-General, to announce the happy news of his Majesty's having sworn to the con Ilion, arrived at Pa termer. Joy spread throughout the city. The tricoloarcd cockade, the signal of the reform in ore civil Government, was in a moment universally displayed. In the evening • yellow cockade was united to the tricoloured one. Opinloas were DPW expressed in favour of the constitution, and a deal,. WAS manifested to have • different national Parliament for Sicily. Some persons wore on their breast the yellow riband, with the figure of the Sicilian eagle. On the morning of the 15th every one was required to wear the national cockade; in the evening, however, the yellow riband was added to it; even the Neapolitans were compelled so wear the yellow. On the 15th a religious festival was celebrated. His Ex cellency the Lieutenant-General proceeded to the Cathedral, where grand masa was performed; he was received by cries of" Viva /a Conatiluzione! Viva Vindrpendenzar These cries accompanied the Lieutenant on his return fermi the Cathedral, and also when be proceeded to the Govenimmit House to a • the duties of the evening. The religiose ceremony being ended, his Excellency pro ceeded to the Senate House, where he had left General Church, Brigadier Coglitore, •nd some other persons. The two G Is went unt together to walk. General Church, who is foreign to us both by birth asd renames's, in a fit of passion, which, to say the least of it, was tore the yellow rihand from the breast of a peaceable citizen. This was the sigma! for • general distelbsuce. General Cog. litoee advised his indiscreet companies in arms to fly ; but the unfortunate man himself received two blows intended for General Church, who then Red. It is sot known what has become of him. The populace, irritated by the insult which bad been offered to • citizen, repaired to the hotel where Church lodged. The guard, which was composed of troops of the foreign regiment, repulsed the people by Bring on them ; several persons were wounded. Marshal Pastore arrived in the midst of the conflicyand pat an end to it by withdrawing the guard. A short time after, the residence of Church was plsudered, and every thing found in it was burnt in the Piazza della Marina. Indignation alone, and not the love of plunder, compelled the people le this excess. On receiving information of this, the Lieutenant-General recommended to the good citizens the care of calming the turbulent spirits of the people and of restoring tranquillity. A civic guard was appointed; it was determined that two squadrons of the second cavalry regiment of the guard should parade the priscipal streets, sad that the other twosquadreas should be posted along the Pieta° della Marisa: it was or dered that the regiment should retire as soon es tranquillity should be restored. The safe custody of the csuvicls wee also provided for. These measeirer, however, did not prodsee the desired good effect. The forts of /Unita and Castehamaire were assailed, and being suddenly attacked, and defesded only by sew Siei- Ban conscripts, were taken ; the arms sad ammunition were carried off. The Governor Ruts, and the Captain of Artil lery Asfossi, made a courageous resistance, to prevent the movies from escaping. The fort of the Palazzo Reale ex perlesced the suns fate as the siker two.

TH IMPROVEMENT OF ENGLISH ROADS URGED, DURING TIM RXIFFING DEARTH OF ZSIPLOYMINT FOR THE POOR. -..m.... [A Pamphlet, by W. Winans ] The title of this work indicates at once the au thor's opinion of our public roads, and the indirect advantage which It thinks it possible to derive from altering their condition, vie. thE employ ment of the poor. We are not prepared to dispute his averments, though some of them seem to be little questiossoble. Certvsuly, if any eournervail. ing advantages were to lie sought for the oppres sive evils with which the monopolies of our money system afflict the inferior classes, the general di rectness unit safety of public roods, and the secu rities and couvenience of travelling upon them in Great Blitain, would be considered by most people as among those 'drainages. 'Superabundant ca pital, by whatever means extracted from the holders, or by whatever process wrung originally from the produce of labour, hits so far atoned, like the charity of the religious ages, for the mischief which accompanied its own existence.— Jt has done that generally for the roads which the mists and rains do for the meadows; it has ex hausted itself to a certain degree insbeneficial wasiefulnerv, and, unlike power in general, become a blessing from the very act of dissolution. Mr. Wickens, however, questions both the excellence, or, as we miderstind him, the improvements of public roads. And whereas most people have supposed that our roads, taking into the account the necessities of winding imposed by the surface of the country, are almost as straight as the direct meridians which they represent, he de clares that with the exception of the primary roads which intersect the kingdom, that all the others are capable of great abridgment. The direct silvan. loges he proposes (ruin straightening them, besides saving of time in travelling, are the saving of soil (4 circumstance, he observes, of no mean import ance, considering the new doctrines respecting po pulation and the means of subsistence) ; an easier, mid therefore cheaper way of communication, by *lnch fish, coals, and manure, maybe snore equal ly dist ributed ; the saving of horses (which at pre sent averages, in stage coach labour, not more than three )ears, upon some roads not more than two years of existence); the general improvement of internal commerce; the saving of expense in main tai tt tt g the roads, &c. For these purposes he insists on the necessity of lowering the hilly roads, and at the same time, and by the ►ame means, filling up the contiguous hol low.. lie adds ■ remark on the unaccountable folly which his almost always led to the neglect of the latter operation, even in cases where the lower ing of hills has been carried into effect. He next recommends improvement in the material—lime stone end flint are to be used instead of pebbles, clay, and gravel. Where flout is already used, he complaint of its being left in round masses, so as to be incapable of settling into firm uniou with the other materials; it should be broken, an that ha flat sides might form a more solid compact with them. He proposes to adopt a wider and more uniform breadth for roads, by enforcing the dor. waist provisions of the statutes : " By onr written laws it is provided, that every public horse or drift way, sboald be eight feet wide at the least ; every public cart way leading to say market town, at least twenty; and every turapike road, sixty feet wide. Nor are trees or hedges to be suffered to crow within a given lance by our road sides, or beyond • certain height. It would probably be found beneficial to probibit every de scription of fence by • road side, bet ditches of a moderate depth, or at (rust snob fences; by whirl he drainage of our roads would be scented, as watt as their yea:nation" Considering the rapid consumption and decrease of fuel in a country thickly peopled, the latter re commendation may not be so politic.
