A forcible k t Y was effected by the use of a chisel, or some ttl'Q ine , trument, as was proved by the marks left 11 , the injured woodwork. The thieves succeeded ea r th i rying off coins to the value of about £73, p r qy in French Napoleons and Prussian single T h e tiericks, t oge th er w i t h some E ngl i s h mone y. tit , e 3 7 also carried off two dozen of silver spoons forks. Singularly en oug h, i n th e i r pre , ,14 at 3' search, they threw aside a waistbelt 1, 41 Which were contained bank notes to the p e I le of about £2OO. More singular still, it ap beted that some of the inmates had not gone to so till after one o'clock in the morning, and that, ti its can be learned, the burglary took place t i ° lit half-past six o'clock. In the course of Satur flayafternoon, two young men were found lurking 1A the neighbourhood, and taken into custody. being searched, a chisel was found in the pos '4ion •of on e o f th em , w hi c h, on b e i ng compare d „ith the marks f o u n d a t M rs .

We are able to state, on the best authority, that, with the ex thi:ti°ll of the fact that a registered letter had been stolen, tai Btate nient was utterly false. The stolen letter con elilled the halves of notes to the amount of £65, and a h ltk c itle for £9 9s. together £74 9s ; and as one set of 'ves leached their destination, and payment of the cheque a ' 4 4 , 3 : t° PPed, nobody will lose a farthing by the disappear °t the letter.

COURT OF BANKRUPTCY. (Before Mr. Commissioner Evans.) IN RE A. W. RIDER. This bankrupt had carried on business in Bevis Marks, Aldgate, and this was an application under the 112th sec tion, for release from custody. Mr. Sargood supported.--This was the third application. The bankrupt had been connected in business with his brother, Thomas George Rider, who has absconded and been declared bankrupt, and in the belief that the above bankrupt (A. W. Rider) was about to leave this country a writ of capias was issued, on which he was arrested and lodged in the Queen's Bench Prison. The first application was refused, as proper notices had not been served, and on the last occasion his Honour intimated that he would not grant a release unless the bankrupt gave security. Mr. Brandon, Essex-street, appeared for the assignees, and took objection that as the bankrupt was in custody under an order of the Court of Queen's Bench to give bail the Court had no jurisdiction. His Honour held that the objection was good, and said that the bankrupt must apply to the Court above. The bankrupt was thereupon taken back to the Queen's Bench prison, until released by the court above, or obtains his discharge under the proceedings against him in bank ruptcy. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. —(This Day.) BOW-STREET, y e of a fal se c h arac t er . eht C a h in a i r n lo g tt a e e lk it l u a e r t s i h e , h a h n y e re ld e e a r n l woman, was charged with Mr. Tas. Russell Williams said—l am a lodging house keeper, and reside at 14, Arundel-street, Strand. On the 26th of February I answered an advertisement for a cook, being in want of a person in that capacity in my establish ment, and on the following day the prisoner presented her self to me. I enquired of her where she had last been in service, and she said at No. 28 ,Stratford-place, Camden town, in the family of a gentleman named Saws. She said she had resided there about a year and nine months, and that she left in consequence of a quarrel she had with one of the four servants that were kept by Mr. Saws. I told her I should want a reference, and she said she would go and see her late master and get permission for rue to call. The prisoner then left, and the following morning she came to my house and told me her master was away from home, and, as her mistress was uncertain, the gentle man hal written her a letter, which she hand e d t o me . It . "Chas. Saws." Charlotte Marsh Thewas d l e a t t t e e d r 2 w B a , e S t h r ae here f e o r r d e .. a p d l a ; c i e t , s all tate d d sr ha e t d . enter my was an industrious, sober, and honest person, and also that she was a good cook. In consequence of that letter I engaged with the prisoner to ser vice at £l6 per annum ; but about a fort night or so after I found that the Consumption of articles increased to an enormous extent. I became sus picious of the prisoner, and I began to search the place, when I found large quantities of butter, pickles, jam, and other articles secreted about— _ Mr. Corrie—You had better confine yourself at present to the charge against the prisoner, and not go into that of Larceny. Did you send to Stratford•place ? Witness•—Yes, your worship. James Jones, manager to the last witness, sa id—l went by my employer's direction to 28, St ratford-place, and found a lady residing there named Saws. Mr. Corrie—ls she here ? _ Witness—No, your worship. The prisoner has admitted that she had never lived at Stratford-place. Mr. Corrie—l don't know that the letter you produce was not written by Mr. Saws, You must have the lady and gentleman here. Prisoner—l have a right to a character from Mrs. Saws. I lived in her mother's service, and also in her's for three days. The prisoner was remanded. MARLBOROUGH - STREET. ASSAULT ON A WlFE.—LaWrela o e Sullivan, a labouring man, was charged with assaulting his wife as follows : Tbe wife said her husband, whom she had not seen for eight weeks, he leaving her to take care of the children, came into her room, and, without saying a word, rushed at her and struck her on the forehead, which bled very much. She made her escape from the room, and had her head dressed. In answer to Mr. Tyrwhitt, the complainant said she could not say whether her husband had anything in his hand. She had been separated from hite for six months. She believed if it had not been for her father she would have] been killed. A iconstable said the complainant was bleeding on the forehead. The prisoner told him he did not know that he had struck his wife at all, as he was drunk. Prisoner said he might have shoved his wife. Mr. Tyrwhitt fined him 405., or a month. John Hartnett, who has before been in custody, was charged by Drascovich, 197 C, with stealing a large piece of cheese from the shop of Mr. Wm. Webb, of 440, Oxford street. He was remanded, THAMES. A PRECIOUS COUPLE.—John Sullivan, a dirty and rough•.looking fellow, was brought before Mr. Woolyrch, charged with violently assaulting a woman of the town, named Margaret Maloney. The complainant said that she and the prisoner came from the same town in Ireland, and were distantly re lated. They had lived together off and on for some time. There was not an ounce of her flesh that was not beaten black and blue. Last night he came home out of temper, and said take that, and struck her a violent blow on the head and knocked I her down, and when she was down kicked her. He had repeatedly said he would take away her life, and that he did not mind going to prison. He also threw her down stairs and bruised every bone in her body, and if it had not been for her crinoline she would have been killed. The witness, like all the frail sisterhood, wore a huge crinoline, which any lady of title or fashion in the West might hare envied. The prisoner here pointed to a scar on his forehead, and said :—She out my head open with a teacup. She says my half a crown a day for dock labour is not enough to keep her. The complainant—He abuses me for not bringing horn e money enough. _ _ Frederick Martin, a police constable, No. 13:5 H, said he was called in to the lodgings of Mr. Sullivan and Mrs. Maloney, in Lambeth-street, Whitechapel, last night. Everything in the room was broken and smashed up, the complainant was bleeding from the nose and mouth, and the man's clothes were torn. They were continually quar relling and fighting. Mr. Woolrych—They are a most disgraceful couple-- worthy of each other. The prisoner has committed a most cowardly assault, and he is sentenced to one month's im prisonment, and hard labour. _ THE ROBBERIES IN THE LONDON Docx.—John Healey and Thomas Ward, labourers in the employ of the London Dock Company, were brought before Mr. Woolrych charged with stealing tea. There have been numerous convictions of dock labourers and others for stealing tea. On Saturday, the Bth instant, Mr. Selfe sentenced a fellow named Watson to six months imprisonment and herd labour for stealing 191 b. of tea, whic„h he had ingeniously contrived to secrete about his person, and on. Monday, the 10th instant, a labourer named Haggerty was found guilty by a jury at Middlesex Sessions, and sentenced to four months imprisonment and hard labour for bringing 31b. of tea out of the dock. Three summary convictions for stealing tea took place at this nom t last week. The officers have been called upon to ex ercise unusual vigilance in detecting the tea thieves, and yesterday they captured the prisoners, both labourers, as they were leaving the dock. On Healey, an old man, six ounces of black and green tea were found concealed in his pockets and neckerchief. Ward had managed to secrete fourteen ounces of tea about his person; it was slang in front of him, to his waistband. In answer to Mr. Woolrych, the officer said the prisoners would never be employed in the dock again on any account whatever. There were now 17 tea ships discharging their cargoes in the London Dock. Mr. Woolrych said the prisoners had been guilty of a very gross breach of trust and betrayal of confidence, and ought to protect, not plunder, their employers. He sen tenced them each to ten days' imprisonment and hard labour. THE WAKEFIELD BRIBERY PROSECUTIONS.— The Wakefield correspondent of the Manchester Guardian states that information has been received in that town to the effect that the Government do not intend to proceed further with the bribery prosecutions. Tho Emperor Napoleon has decided upon con verting the old Chateau of St. Germaine, once the habita tion of the exiled monarch of England, James 11., into a museum, which is to contain all the remains of the Gallic period of various times found in France ; and a series of antiquities down to the middle ages, where, archeologically speaking, the Hotel de Cluny commences, is to be brought together. There has time when Julian the Apostate was prevalent, some, lately been discovered, is canalising a portion of the Seine, the authority a number of antique medals which were struck as early as i the t s periodeeni seems, as a when hf far back n the e Roman ka had his palace on the banks of the river. The King of Denmark has recently sent to the Emperor some antiquities relating to Scandinavia, illustrating t h e Runic times, which are to find a place in this museum. Models of Celtic sculp ture of various forms are being transmitted from various parts of the Continent, SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. TATTERSALL S'—YESTERDAY.

The LORD CIIINCELLOR took his seat on the woolsack at five o'clock. THE REVISED CODE. Lord BELPER presented petitions from Derbyshire against the Revised Code. The Marquis of NORMANBY presented similar peti•. tions from Birmingham. The Earl of DERBY presented petitions to a similar efferot. Lord REDESDALE presented numerous petitions from Warwickshire and Gloucestershire. THE NEAPOLITAN PROCLAMATION. The Marquis of NOILMANBY rose to move an address for copies or extracts of any despatches from Sir James Hudson, her Majesty's Minister at Turin, relating to Go vernment prosecutions of the press during the last twc years ; also copies or extracts of any despatches from Sir James Hudson, or from Mr. Bonham, her Majesty's Consul at Naples, reporting the issue of cer tain proclamations or orders from Generals Cialdini and Vorelli, from Commandants Galateri, Narbone, D e Vergili, Faieno, and others, whereby the population of vi rious portions of the Neapolitan territory were last year subjected to arbitrary military execution without any form of process and without any previous declaration of a state of siege ; and also copies er extracts of any despatches from Sir J. Hudson, calling the attention of her Majesty's Go vernment to statements of fact as to the condition of Southern Italy made by Neapolitan deputies in the Parliament of Turin, and reported in the official records of that assembly. The noble lord said he must refer to the statement made by the noble earl when he (the Marquis of Normanby) a few evenings ago was compelled to postpone his motion. The noble earl on that occasion did not feel inclined to accept entirely that which he had stated with respect to the pro clamation, and had implied that the document had been fabricated in the Italian newspaper in which it first appeared. That statement of the noble lord had not been withdrawn, although it had been in some measure destroyed, and he considered that had the document appeared in an English newspaper, the noble earl he felt satisfied would not have made such a charge. The Italian newspaper in question was a most respectable one, and not at all likely to act as the noble earl had supposed. The noble earl had on other occasions stated that the King of Piedmont had never in stituted prosecutions against Conservative journals, but had allowed them every liberty to state their opinion with out the slightest importance, but from information that had come into his possession he found that the King or his Government had instituted no less than s ix press prosecutions, the punishment inflicted in each case being fine or imprisonment. He must also object to another statement of the noble earl, in which he said there was no civil war in Naples, but that it was confined entirely to the Papal frontier. Now the papers that were continually arriving in this country from Italy plainly showed that that was not the case. News had even arrived that very morning of the taking forcible possession of a town, while the national guard of which remained passive. The result of the policy pursued in Parma, Modena, Tus cany, Bologna, and the Neapolitan provinces had been famine and military murder, the taxes had been increased, desertion was frequent, and discontent universal. Italy would, he believed, be yet independent and prosperous, but that would not take place until the impostures of the last three years had been exposed. Earl RUSSELL said he was sorry to trouble their lord- ships again on this sulject of the proclamation issued by Fantoni, but the statements made by his noble friend re quired some further explanation. The noble marquis had taken a course not very convenient, of referring to reports made of a speech delivered by him (the noble earl) in that house, and of criticising those statements. With regard to that debate, it arose, as his noble friend stated, out of a question from the noble earl opposite (Derby), acting as deputy for the noble marquis, whose inquiry was not con fined to the genuine character of the proclamation, but who spoke in terms of indignation of the Government for sanc tioning the proclamation. His noble friend had said that his (Earl Russell's) motives in his reply were twofold. The Marquis of NORMANBY--That was the impression they were intended to create. Earl RUSSELL—Then the house knew the impressions he intended to create better than he did himself. His object was certainly not twofold. He simply endeavoured to ac count for the proclamation, of which he had not received information, by the supposition that it could not be genuine. His noble friend said that he had charged the proprietors or editors of newspapers with forgery. He did not know at this time what words he exactly used, but he did not mean 1 to charge those gentlemen with forgery ; but he supposed it was very possible that that proclamation had been taken I by them as not a genuine one, and published as if it were. He still adhered to that view. The Italian gentleman, the friend of the Lord Privy Seal, to whom the noble marquis alluded, referred, not to this proclamation, because he left Turin before it was issued, but to some incidents of a similar character which had happened some weeks previ ously. Ist ,, w it appeared that the Government of Turin knew nothing whatever of the proclamation, nor did the Commander-in-Chief at Naples ; and yet that Government was to be blamed and held up to Europe as unworthy of respect on account of sanctioning that proclamation. He had since received a despatch from her Majesty's consul at Naples, and he would ;Tad it. It was written by Mr. Bonham and not by the Minister, and therefore it might be the more readily received with confidence by noble lords opposite. Mr. Bonham said,—" Naples, March 6. My Lord —I have the honour to report to your lordship that having seen in the Times of the 26th February a report of a conver sation in the House of Lords relative to a proclamation issued in these provinces, of which I had not previously heard, I called on Gen. La Marmora to ask some informa tion about it. His Excellency told me that the first he heard of it was an inquiry by telegraph from Turin respecting a proclamation said to have been issued by a Gen. Fantoni, there being no general of that name in the service. He at once proceeded, however, to investigate the matter, and found that a Major Fantoni, commanding a battalion, had in effect drawn up such a proclamation, and had it printed in Lucera. Having then submitted it to the general com manding the district, that offieer at once disapproved and disavowed it. It was set aside, and not acted on in any way. Some person, however, having obtained a copy, sent it, it would appear, to the Journal Armenia at Turin, in which it was published. His Excellency added that he had com municated all this by telegraph to Turin some days ago, and doubtless your lordship has been already informed of the circumstance by her Majesty's en voy at Turin. I, how ever, write to state to your lordship that this proclamation was not published in the official or any other journal in these provinces until just now, that its publication in the Armenia having attracted attention in England, it has been copied into the journal called the Tapolo d' Italia." Now, that was the proclamation which the noble marquis stated was circulated in all the public journals in Italy, and was taken as a genuine act of the Government sitting at Turin. That was the proclamation on which a grave charge was founded against the Government of Italy. He (the noble earl) entirely acquitted the Armenia of having invented that document, and of having been imposed upon by some one who did ; but he asked their lordships whether, considering the circumstances,there did not appear just suspicion that the editors of the Armenia must have known something of the proclamation. Was it not probable that they were per fectly aware, from the persons who sent it them, that the act of a major commanding a battalion was not approved of by the general of the district, and had not received any official sanction? So much for the histor y of this proclama tion; m ue t k and o w thathe thoughtneineither n t ehre her no M ajesty ' s b Ie e r l hi minister predecessor a at n Turinoffi e nor our consul at Naples was to blame for not transmitting this proclamation, or abstaining from asking for any instruc tion the subject. His noble friend had gone on to ask several questions about other statements of his (Earl Russell's) with respect the press. Now what he stated on that subject passed between Count Cavour and himself in a conversation when they met at Nice. He supposed that as prosecutions of the press had not taken place there might be greater laxity. His noble friend's question related to matters which took place two years subsequently, in 1859. He knew well that after the battle of Solferino, when there was a question of signing the treaty of Villafranca, Count Cavonr retired from office, and was not responsible for what took place. He did not think that the English Government was responsible (hear, hear), but it was with the Italian Go vernment themselves, and with regard to that subject her Majesty's representative at Turin said most justly that as all the prosecutions of the press were conducted according to the judicial form, that as the judges at Turin were ap pointed for life or during good behaviour, and that as there was an appeal to a higher court in case of a conviction, he did not consider it his duty to report to her Majesty's Government all the prosecutions of the press or the judg ments or sentences recorded. In that opinion he (the noble earl) thought our minister was perfectly correct. But with regard to other subjects he was afraid that il? and his noble friend were at variance. His noble friend spoke of the prosecutions of the press and of th f e harsh Naples measures that had been resorted to, and speak—g ° he said not only legal but illegal measures hadrabneestnretalernk. That might be the case, but he (Earl Russell) t d upon that observation that freshpapers camedontweovoerrythareye. This and the publication of the Armen b l change an had taken an ea pdat place.' friend,lace . more papers at Turin showed that a p s e o r m co n u at ld hi b s e ne H w e he r n em it e w m a b s er im ed p p o e s r s f ib ec le tl pro secuted, because no man was allowed m ho h se days to say anything at all in blame of the Minister of . t e day or of the most simple and harm- Government of the day, eveninthe y th w at e a llg il less manner. (Hear.) He remembered when that very mo derate paper the Journal des Debats was not allowed in the dominion of the Xing of Sardinia for fear it might induce great liberty of thought. That was the main and broad dif ference between Italy of past days and the Italy of the pre sent. Formerly not a word that any lover of freedom spoke pe establishment that tended t n o d f e d a t h o b e t he ae l improvement cou ld be publis hed, and no man c ould venture to print any opinion in any Y to n t e h w e s Tahtelifealcatwnsew was that while there was a great deal of vio lence no doubt on the side of these who were in favour of what had taken place in Italy, there was at the same time great liberty, or he should rather say great license, on the part of those who entertained opinions upon the other side, and who were obviously working for the restoration of the old state of things in Italy. (Hear.) His noble friend said that, notwithstanding the withdrawal of this proclamation, four women had been put to death for having too much bread in their possession. He had inquired into the truth of statement, and the only answer he got from her Majesty's Minister at Turin was that be could not find that any mem ber of the Italian Government had heard anything about it. The noble lord said that he (Earl Russell) had denied that there was a civil war raging in the south of Italy. He cer tainly did deny it. He admitted that there were bands of 20, 30, or 40 declaring their wish for the restoration of the old dynasty; but these men acted as brigands, they did not assemble as an army, they held no great town, and they possessed no great fortress. They merely dis turbed and destroyed. (Hear, hear.) They did all they could to prevent regular government from being carried on, but they did it by the same means that the brigands of old times had employed to create disturbances in the country. (Hear, hear.) Every one knew that the Government of Naples had been so bad—though it was an object of his noble friend's worship—(laughter) —had been so bad in fer nier times that brigandage was at all times prevalent ; the administration of justice so defective that men escaped by bribes from just punishment; and all the country so demo ralised that it was difficult for any new Government to re store order in less than a generation. With respect to the present state of the southern province, he would refer to the following communicat on from Mr. Bonham, dated Naples, March 17, 1862 :" My Lord,—l have the honour to inform your lordship that the vice-consul at Brindisi reports the reappearance of brigands in that neighbourhood. Bands of marauders are also spoken of as having made their appear ance in other districts. I asked General La Marmora yes terday what truth there was in these reports. His excel lency stated that bands had appeared in some places, but in small numbers. He added, ' Brigandage in this country is an affair of old date, and it is useless to flatter ourselves that it can be suppressed all at once. Until we improve our internal communication by the constructing of railroads and of common roads, and have en efficient and properly organised force of carbineers in the country, we cannot hope wholly to eradicate it ; but these brigands are mere marau ders,and not in any way formidable or important as to num bers.' His excellency also stated that there had been as yet no disembarkation of adventurers from abroad." That was the statement of Gen. La Marmora, a man whom everyone must respect, and who was known to many officers in her Majesty's service, for he commanded the Piedmontese con tingent in the Crimean war. He (Earl Russell) believed that his statement was perfectly correct, and he believed also that General La Marmora was a man incapable of autho rising unnecessary cruelty. (Hear, hear.) But their lord ships knew that of the army that entered Naples under Garibaldi many joined the service of the King of Italy who were not brought up to regular military employment; they shared the passions prevailing in Southern Italy, and their lordships knew from what occurred in 1799 and 1810 how violent those passions were on both sides. The noble lord said that cruelties had been committed, and he was afraid there was too much truth in the re-enactment of the old story of cruelty on the one side as well as the other. They knew that when Murat, who had been acknowledged King of Naples by every power in Europe, landed on the coast of Naples, not 24 hours elapsed before he was shot for being in arms against the Government; and was it to be wondered at that these brigands, who were in arms against the existing Government, had been treated with as much severity asMurat suffered. But with respect to these things, and with respect to the treatment of the press, the Government of Great Britain was not the Government which was to answer for the irregular putting down of brigandage, or for the man ner in which general liberty was dispensed. (Hear.) It was obvious to all men that with regard to all those liber ties which we respected, with regard to religious liberty for instance, the former government of Italy neverallowed any professions of opinion, or any form of public worship which. was not in conformity with the State religion. The noble lord knew perfectly well that while the noble lord and he were together in Tuscany, the Italians were not allowed to meet for public worship in religions other than that of the State ; and that was the mildest form of government in t I t o a n l y. and He i e n (El for a m r a R t e u n s s t e h l l a ) had t ,ait h b e e rt e g n h t o t l h d e by ywltaliansnot molested LT not going to mass, they were not allowed to meet for the purpose of worship according to their own forms. They all knew that whether at Tuscany, Florence, or else where, persons were now allowed to entertain their own re ligious convictions, and to meet with persons of the same convictions for the purpose of public worship. (Hear.) They all knew, with regard to the press, that there was great liberty, and they knew also that there was Parliamentary representation and a constitutional Government. All these things in the gross were the broad lines of distinc tion between the former government of Italy and the present; and here it was that he and his noble friend differed. His noble friend regretted all that had passed in the last three years, and sighed for the days when no reli gious liberty existed, when the press was oppressed, when there was no constitutional government, and no representa ion of the people. (Cries of " No, no," from the Conserva tive benches.) If all that had happened in the last three tyears were to be done away with, and the kingdom of the Two Sicilies, which existed four or five years ago, the Grand Duchy of Tuscany, and the Duchy of Modena were to be restored—if those happy times were to come, did his noble friend indulge in the delusion that the restored governments would act upon the principle that the present King of Italy had proclaimed, that they would venture to oall Parliament together, that they would allow people to speak as much against the Government as the Italians now did, or that they would allow such freedom of expression by ,the newspapers as the Armenia was able now to adopt P If the noble lord believed this would be the case he was very much deceived !abed. It was very well known that the late King, who was a shrewd man in a worldly sense, always said, in answer to the remonstrances of the English and French representa. Lives as to the system of government carried on in Naples, " Your notions of government are quite incompatible with my rule in Naples. I know how to govern my own country, let them leave me alone and I will maintain my thron a against all who assail it; but I know that if I adopt your notions I shall not be able to maintain my throne." To the day of his death he maintained his authority unimpaired, and no doubt if restored to the throne of Naples, the son would, with filial piety, imitate the example of his father. The question was as between whether Italy should have such a government as that which now existed, or such an one as existed five years ago. He was ready to admit there had been great disorders and great severities practised, and that the party in power had in certain cases behaved with great unfairness to those who were under them, but the great question was one of liberty on the one hand, and of tyranny and bigotry on the other. That was the distinction between the two Governments, and. whatever his noble friend might say, and whatever autho rities he might bring forward, he (Earl Russell) should re tain his conviction, and should put up an opposition prayer to that of the noble lord, and hope that the old form of go vernment might never be restored. (Cheers.) With regard to the papers for which his noble friend asked, the Govern ment had no despatches from Sir J. Hudson with regard to Government prosecutions, nor had Sir J. Hudson or Mr. Bonham made any allusion to the statements of the noble earl. They had from time to time transmitted newspapers centaining the debates in the Italian Parliament, and he (Earl Russell) had read some of the speeches, in which members declared, and no doubt with great truth, that during the first months of the new kingdom affairs had been very much mismanaged at Naples, and that many errors had been committed. Those members exercised the right of criticism ; they criticised, as men should do in a free Parliament, the conduct of the Government, and if many of their strictures were just,he trusted that they would pro duce amendment. (Hear.) With regard to General La Marmora, he trusted that he might be able, with 50,000 men under his command, to reduce Naples to order. (Cheers.) The Earl of MALMESBURY observed that those who were upon the Conservative side of the house stood in what he must call a very unfair position, because ever since the Italian struggle began, no pains had been spared by the party which supported the cause of the King of Italy in falsely accusing them of being the enemies of liberty.ltal r i f T rerfi e they noble certainly friend, tto .seariotddeml (Hear.)

(Hear.) But they failed ; and Austria, whom they wished to sup port in her lawful oc,cupation of those territories which she held by treaty, must alone blame herself for the failure of their policy. Nothing could bo more false than to charge him, as he had often been charged by almost the whole press of this country, with unfair Austrian partialities; for he defied any one who took the trouble to read the book ha laid upon their lordships' table two years ago, to find one single word in any one of the despatches contained therein that showed unfair par tiality upon the one side or the other.
