By his systematic management an immense mitigation of:'pain to the unhappy sufferers is attained, and future mischief prevented. The work we can most unreservedly and confidently ,recommend as a valuable contribution, both to the general ant professional reader, and ought to be found in the private study of all who are subject to stricture."—Medical Circular, Dec.

A dreadful occurrence has happened here, which has thrown the city into a state of considerable ex citement. The particulars, as far as they can be ascertained at the present moment., are briefly as :- Mrs. Harris, the alleged murderer and suicide, resided with her husband up to yesterday in the Bath-road, Digby-, a short distance from the Royal China Works, where her husband was employed. Yesterday, on her husband coming home to din ner, about one o'clock, a quarrel arose between them and the wife became much excited, and, snatching up her children, ran out of the house, vowing that she would never return to it. Her husband heard nothing of her all last night, and becoming uneasy inquiries were instituted, and the worst suspicions have been verified to-day by the discovery of the body of one' of the children, a boy, in the river, about a mile below Worcester. It is the gene r al b e li e f th a t M r s. Harris, on leav ing h er h ome, went directly to the r i ver, a b ou t a distanc e o f a quarter of a mile from her house, and that she jumped into the stream with both her children. The river has been dragged all day, but only one body has been found. The stream is much swollen by the rains, and the bodies may have been carried a considerable distance down. ~~ ~~~~ ~~ ~~ ( e. 2 , ~ 2 '~~ - ~~ N EV , : sp SPA-" . • ___f, ,---, z - z , z _ 6 . c , ,:. ) ..... ...., r -. ... 86 -- iiCa b , - • A,. ) 04 4- i - 4111111 .' 41, 1 1 4 _ ..` oe '.- - , • art • 31 4 . : ...... :Ai ~.... . ..v. *, 1. k l\ . .. 6, ,..\ ' k i. ,4 ,4 --i., -4_,,,,. • ~ . . - 464 - I,kL4 ) .- (4. , - ... \ -••••• '-'-' • ' 1 ~....„- ....... - ' ' ) Ey e' ie . .• ~,','., 't li.. .."/ 4 r . :-. 4, .. • - '-rgi,34, . -•• 1' ,. :4,..i.- 4 .)- • i - . ... . . ••‘-- ... - 4.„ i-z• , - ') ; 47 ~ 5i -r ,---,---- - 1 4 . - .- - ,• -: -0 ' ii... : ' ,U -, r ),#.'

The whole question reso l ves i tself i nto the consent she may or may not o bt a i n f rom France to these clan destine manoeuvres; though, so far as the Papal States are concerned, 1 am inclined to think that France herself must have winked at the enlistment of the Swiss runaways from Naples both at Rome itself and at Marseilles. It behoves the Italians, at any rate, to be ready for any attack from their late Sovefeigns, whether they come at the head of a native or a foreign soldiery. A defeat they might suffer from the Papalini or Duchisti, no matter whether Italians, or disguised Swiss, or Croatians, might lose them the sympathy of Europe past all recovery. PRICE 4 D . STAMPED, 515. I were compelled to return. No informati o n of th e absence of the King had been given to them. Filangieri is still at Sorrento, and holds himself as much aloof as ever from all affairs of State, though I am now given to understand that his counsel was taken with regard to the expedition to the fron tier, and for the management of the campaign. All official acts are still signed by the President, Carascosa. The gravity of the position may be estimated by the fact that the Cardinal of Naples has sent a letter to his clergy, by which he refuses all sacer dotal and ecclesiastical ordinations at present, and during the season when such ordinations are made. The reason assigned is that the Holy Father is ex posed to great danger. Such an act, together with many others similar, which the Church knows well how to execute in the right time are well calcu lated to exercise a considerable influence over the minds of an ignorant and superstitious people. How great is their superstition you may gath er from the following fact. On the day of the fete o f San Gennaro a French liner, the Hellespont, came in and grounded on 2. shoal called the Gaiol 1, near Posilippo. It is a well known spot and Go vernment is much to blame for never having placed any signal there. It is said that the boatmen had some words with the captain, and that the latter called the blood of the saint the blood of a pig, " and that very day, sir," says my informant, " the vessel went ashore. The saint punished him for his impiety. You may laugh as you like, but all Naples says so. lam a religious man, and know that the saint did it." A letter from Mazzini, addressed to Victor Em manuel, privately printed, but freely circulated at Florence, is now before me. It bears date the 16th of September, and seems to confirm the rumour that Mazzini was here at some time or other. In this letter Mazzini emboldens the King of Sardinia to seize on the whole of Italy and make it one king dom from the Alps to the sea ; bidding defiance to France, Austria, and as many European Powers as might dare to say aught against it. He promises the King the support of "us " all—that is, of the whole of his ,own Republican party, though for himself he expresses his readiness to go back into the land of exile, being too far committed to his party and too strongly wedded to his democratic convictions to live under the sceptre of even the most liberal and national King. Such is, however, not the language Mazzini held in 1831 to Victor Emmanuel's father, for in his letter " to Charles Albert of Savoy," Mazzini showed no repugnance to fight under a King's standard, provided only the King should wage war against Austria. MANIFESTO OF THE PAPAL GOVERN3fENT The following is the text of the Allocution of the Pope, delivered at the Consistory of the 26th ult. : Venerable Brethren—ln the address which we de livered to you in June last, with our heart overcome by grief, we deplored all that had been done by the enemies of the Holy See at Bologna, Ravenna, and elsewhere, against, the civil sovereignty which legi timately belongs to us and to this Holy See. We moreover declared at the same time that they had all incurred the ecclesiastical censures and penalties enacted by the sacred canons, and we de-I' creed that all their acts were null and void. We indulged in the hope, however, that those rebellious sons, moved and affected by our words, would have returned to their duty; they all know the kindness which 'we have always displayed since the commencement of our Pontificate, and with what love and zeal, in the midst of the serious difficulties of the present times, we have always directed all our care and all our thoughts to secure the prosperity and the tranquillity of our people, both as regards their temporal and spiritual inte reks. Supported by counsels, by instigations, and by assistance from abroad, and feeling their auda city strengthened by that circumstance, they have not hesitated at any attempt; and, carrying dis turbance into all the /Emilian (1) provinces sub ject, to our Pontifical power, they have withdrawn them from our sovereignty, and from that of this Holy See. The standard of defection and rebellion having been raised in those pro v i nces , an d th e P ont ifi ca l Government being therein overthrown, there were at first established dict a t ors o f th e su b-Al p i ne kingdom,. w h o a f terwar d s took the name of corn anssioners extraordinary, and then that of governors-general. Audaciously arrogating to themselves the rights of our supreme power, they dismissed from public functions those persons whose well-known fidelity towards their legitimate prince made them regarded as incapable of joining in per verse designs. These men have not even feared to usurp the ecclesiastical power by subjecting the hospitals, the orphan establishments, and other in stitutions of that kind, to new laws% They have gone so far as to ill-treat the members of the clergy by sending them into exile or throwin g th em i nto prison. In their declared hatred against the Apos tolic Sce they called together on the 6th of this month, at Bologna, an assemblage which they styled the National Assembly of the people of and there promulgated a decree full of lying pretexts and accusations, by which, falsely alleging the unanimity of the people, they declared in contempt of the rights of the Roman Church, that they would no longer be subjected to the Pontifical Government. On the following day they made a fresh declara tion, as is now the custom, that those provinces wished to be annexed to the domain and kingdom of the King of Sardinia. In the midst of those deplorable attacks, the chiefs of the party incessantly labour by all the means at their disposal to corrupt the habits of the people, particularly by distributing books and journals, printed either at Bologna or elsewhere, and in which they encourage every kind of licen tiousness ; insult the person of the Vicar of Jesus Christ; mock the practice of religion and of Christian piety ; and turn into ridicule the prayers commonly offered up to the moss Holy and Imma culate Virgin Mary, Mother of God, either to do her honour or implore her powerful protection. Even in theatrical representations there is no re spect for public honesty, modesty, or virtue ; and the persons devoted to iod are held up to derision and to contempt. This is what is done by men who call themselves Catholics and who declare that they are full of re spect and veneration for the supreme spiritual power and authority of the Roman Pontiff. Every body sees how deceitful such a declaration must be, for the authors of these acts conspire with all those persons who wage relentless war on the Roman Pontiff and on the Catholic Church, and who spare no effort to root out and extirpate from all hearts, if that were possible, our divine religion and its salutary teacking. This is why you particularly, Venerable Brethren, who participate in our labours, and share our pain, easily understand in what affliction we are plunged, and what sorrow and indignation we feel in com mon with you and all well intentioned persons. In the midst of such great bitterness of heart, what consoles us is that the great majority of the populations of the provinces of Emilia detect these culpable enterprises, and stand aloof from thfm . , with horror, preserving their fidelity to the legiti mate prince, and manifesting firm attachment to our civil authority and to that of the Holy See ; also, that the clergy of the same provinces, worthy of the highest culogium, have nothing so much at heart amidst these troubles and agitations as scru pulously to discharge their duties, and to show in a striking manner their firm faith and the respect with which they are animated towards us and the Apostolic See, by braving and despising all perils. And now, since we are bound by the gravest of our duties and by a solemn oath to support un flinchingly the cause of our most holy religion, to protect firmly against violation the rights and pos sessions of the Roman Church, to defend our civil authority and that of this Apostolic See, and to transmit it intact to our successors as the patri mony of St. Peter, we cannot refrain from raising our apostolic voice, in order that all the Catholic universe, and particularly all our venerable brethren, the bishops—from whom we have received, in the midst of _the bitterest sorrows, to the great joy of our heart, so many remarkable and illustrious tes timonies of faith and love, and of attachtmhweeenbtdlteiosssauepsa: i t , h e i t s er hLol m y a S y e k e, no a w nd w t it h h e patrimony \vh er o g r y i t ) o ro a v e e co o m f epvliesth'y th in ing th \ e vh i i l c r h ovi t n h c e e s s e m of en jE l ni ta iTi e a, dared sub jected to our Pontifical sovereignty. That is why we entirely reprove, and declare null and of no effect, all the acts of which we have spoken in this august assembly, and all the acts encroaching on the power, ecclesiastical immuni ties, our civil sovereignty, and that of this Holy See, principality, power, and jurisdiction—what ever may be the name given to these acts. No one is ignorant that all those persons who, in the provinces above named, have given their support, counsels, or assent to the acts which we blame, or have in any . way promoted the accom plishment of them, have incurred the ecclesiastical penalties and censures which we alluded to iu our allocution mentioned above. And not, venerable brethren, let us throw our selves with confidence at the foot of the throne of grace, in order to obtain from Divine assistance the consolation and the strength necessary in the midst of such great adversities. Let us not cease to address to God, who is rich in mercy, fervent and humble prayers, in order that by his all-powerful virtue he may bring back the guilty, some of whom, perhaps, know not what they do, to better thoughts, and to the paths of justice, religion, and salvation. (1) The provinces of Rom4rna, now under the Papal rule, were called ?Emilia under the latter rule of the Romans. • MR. ROBERT STEPHENSON.—Wo greatly regret to learn that the report of Nfr. Robert Stephenson's con valescence is incorrect. He still continues m a very pre carious state, and although somewhat easier last evening, the symptoms aro of a eguacter t 9 cause great anxiety to his frzentlP,—Ximes. THE. SUN, LONDON, FRIDAY EVENING, OCTOBER 7, 185-6: measure. In this Arnaud succeeded, but on the condition that Spain should send a contingent of 20,000 men to Rome. On the arrival of the Brief in Madrid the greatest possible publicity was given to it in order to procure purchasers ; at th© same time, however, the offer made by Arnaud was blanied, the promised troops were refused, and Arnaud was withdrawn. It is more strongly than ever asserted that the Duke de Grammont has re peatedly said, both to the Pope and the Cardinals, thatthe return of the Romagna to the dominion of the Holy See was no longer possible, and that there would be great danger of losing also the Marches and Umbria unless concessions were made. In con sequence a Council of Cardinals was called, and it is said that the institutions so Often demanded by France are about to be conceded, with many modi fications. Those who are well-informed, however, are• of opinion that such institutions are by no means calculated to give satisfaction; that the Marches and Umbria are resolved on throwing in their lot with the Romagna, and that nothing will remain to the Pope but the patrimony of St. Peter. The execration of Cardinal Antonelli is both great and general, and even the clergy are opposed to him, seeing as they do that he it is who has ruined the Papal State. Still his Holiness persists in keeping him in power. Antonelli represents in his person the impossibility of reform, and revolution in per manency in the States of the Church. He and Mazzini will have deserved equally well of the Papacy. The excesses of the Swiss who have arrived here from Marseilles exceed all description. Many of them are already deserting. The Minister of Arms, the Most Eminent Cardinal Antonelli, seeing that there is no probability of his forming a Papal army with such materials, has put a stop to all further enrolment in that quarter. In Pesaro a conspiracy has been discovered among the native troops to de sert en masse. A few have been arrested, and a different distribution of them has been thought of, with the hope that the Swiss may keep both the troops and the people in order. In this general de- rangement the finance of course suffers, and a deb, has been created of 1,500,000 scudi, and another o 500,000 will be added. It is said that the Duke Salviati, the bead of the family of BorgheLe, has lent the Government 400,000 seudi, and that the Duke Grazioli (whose father, a baker, left him a sufficiently large fortune to raise him to a duke dom) has lent as much at 21 per cent. This rid] proprietor has lately purchased th e P a l azzo B resc i _ _ on which Pius VII. sPent 900,000 scudi. 300,000 scudi were paid down, but that will not suffice to pay one-half of the debts of the nephew of that Pope. N,IPLES. A letter from Naples, dated Oct. 1, says !—" It is impossible to mistake the great excitement which now agitates all c l asses . Even the very lowest have taken the infection, and talk about Garibaldi, and desertions, and encounters, and speak of im pending and violent changes. The sentiment is universal that something is about to happen. In fact, it is wonderful what progre:,s the public spirit has made within the last few weeks ; so much so that I do not believe I shall be committing myself when I say that even here in Naples--that is to say, in the Kingdom —we shall in a very brief space of time witness a violent commotion. This change has been greatly on the increase since the Swiss left ; it was what might have been expected, but this incursion of Garibaldi into the Marches, or the report of it, has given a most extraordinary impulse to the public feeling. It is impossible to give you an idea of the terrible influence which the name of the great:ltalian ha.ro exorcises on the people. Nurses frighten children by sending Garibaldi after them; the nation has great hopes in him as one of their future deliverers; the Court are terror-stricken by the shadow which he casts upon them from a distance. Alter the review of cavalry in Capua last Satur day the king went, as I told you, to Gaeta, whence he returned to Posilippo on Monday, and landed at the casino of Prince Luigi. In the evening he went to Portici• The report is still that he is to go to San Gennaro and even to Sulmona. My report of military movements was so very full in my last letter that I shall not venture to say much more on the subject. In the main I believe I was right. Immense excitement prevails here; so that, with the utmost discretion, it is difficult at times to select the true from the false amid the thousand and one reports which prevail. In the Calabrias tranquillity prevails ; that is to say, the people have not actually risen. Several steamers left last week for Syracuse with the 11th Regiment of the line, and at the beginning of the week they brought back the sth Regiment of the line from Syracuse to Gaeta. Two steamers have left also for Pescara, one with the ambulance for the army on the frontier, and the ether with seve ral companies of soldiers to assist at the disem barkation of it. This being effected, the steamers will remain, it is said, to cruise in the Adriatic. Of the efforts which were making to add to the number of the army I have already spoken. Sixty ducats a man to all who have finished their time, and are willing to remain, and 15 grani a day are unheard-of prices in this country, and show the great eagerness of the Government to obtain men. The levy of 1860 is, too, I hear, being called in with great activity, and in this way 18,000 more men will be obtained. There is talk, too, of mobilizing the Civic Guard ; in fact, no stone is left unturned to meet the danger which threatens, not the country but the Government and the Court ; for, with this exception, all parties here are panting after every movement which must upset the present order of things. Even the Royalists and the greatest reac tionists now confess that the King threw away the most favourable moment of his life at his accessibn o the throne for making concessions to his sub- jects. It is now felt that whatever effort to con ciliate was made would be lost, and might prove even dangerous, and that it is necessary therefore to carry out the present plan of action to the last. Such a confession shows what is the actual position of the Government and its future intentions. A report was spread about at the beginning of the week that the Royalists and the police would make a demonstration in the streets, with cries of " Viva it lie ! " " Viva it Statute ! " Of course such a report is laughed at, and even were such a fact to take place, so little is the faith which is reposed in the Government that no one would be found to re echo the cries. But few troops remain is the city, and these regard the police with an evil eye, while the latter gentlemen seek to avenge themselves, as it were, upon the people. I can give you no idea of the active search which has been, and is being, made for those who are in any way suspected of being connected with the clandestine press, nor is, I think, too much importance attached to this recent proof of the awakening of the public mind. Many perquisizione have been made in the printing offices, and many of the printers arrested, but all to no purpose. The cleverest members of the police have been charged with the office of discovery, and many dressed in plain clothes have been sent among the people with orders to affect sympathy with them, but a ll i n va i n. The Corriere di Nap oli (the clandestine journal) did not make its appearance exactly in the same form last Tuesday as usual, and the type was far from correct, but still a j Jurnal made its appearance, and was widely circulated. The people, in fact, set tlle police at defiance, and beat it. The number to which I allude has some words attri buted to Lord Palmerston, which he is said to have spoken to one of the leaders of the Italian move ment. " Act, act, and let others undo what you do if they can." It concludes in large type with " Garibaldi is in the Marches of Ancona." There was to have been a Council of State at Portici last Monday, and all the Ministers went down, but neither the King nor Severino were there, and they THE WRECK OF THE 5TE,1311, 7 8 ALMA. Yesterday morning the official inquiry into the loss of the above vessel was resumed at the Green wich Police-court, before Mr. Traill, assisted by Capt. Walker, H.E.1.C.5., as nautical assessor. Mr. Cumberland conducted the proceedings on the part of the Board of Trade ; and Mr. Wilde, Q.C., again attended for the captain and chief officer. Henry Carter (third officer) said—l hold a certi- ficate of competency from the 'Board of Trade, dated December, 1856. I have been seven years in the service, and have made 40 trips to the Red Sea. On the morning of the wreck it was my watch, having relieved the third supernumerary officer at 12 o'clock. He gave me the course N. by W.l W. After seeing the ship was steering her course I proceeded on to the forecastle. There I found Mr. Davis, the chief officer, pacing the deck. He ordered me to keep a sharp look-out for the Harnish Islands, and to let him know as soon as I saw them,and then went round to visit the look-out men at their stations. Ho cautioned them to keep a sharp look-out and went forward to the forecastle. We made Harnish bearing N.W. . 1 2 W. I reported this to Mr. Davis, who ordered me to port a quarter of a point, remarking that it would be N. by W. W. I went aft and gave orders to the quartermaster to steer N.W. I- W., and said, "I will go to the wheel, so let me know what is her course. I then walked to the standard compass, and after seeing the order had been obeyed I took my position with the chief officer on the fore castle. At two am. we made Little Harnish, bear ing N.N.W. westwardly. Mr. Davis then ordered me to port another half point, which was obeyed precisely as before. At 6.45 a.m. I called the chief officer's attention to the appearance of high land bearing about N. by W. 2W. He ordered me to port half a point. I was at this time looking through my night glass, and saw nothing lik e rocks or reefs. I was looking at the appearance of the high land. It was very indistinct. Upon receiv ing the order to port half a point I went off to the quartermaster and told him to steer N. W. I had not time to reach the standard compass when I heard Mr. Davis call out "Hard a-port--stop her," and immediately ran to his assistance. The helm was put hard over, the ship answering it rapidly. I felt a slight shock. The ship proceeded a short distance, and a severe shock ensued. This was im mediately followed by another, which threw us from the wheel, and the ship rolled over on her beam ends. I considered the ship's head was then about N.N.E. The compass card vibrated consider ably when she first struck. Sohn Smith, second engineer, next examined—l was second engineer on board the Alma during her last voyage. At the time of the wreck I was not on duty, but lying awake on a table opposite the en gine room door. I did not hear any orders given about the engines. I reversed the engines myself about two minutes after the ship struck. The order, I believe, was given to do so, but I did not hear it. The third engineer was on duty. Richard was quartermaster on board the Alma on her last voyage. It was my first voyage in her, having joined the vessel at Calcutta. During the middle watch, on the morning she struck, I was doing duty as quartermaster. I was starboard at the standard compass, and my duty was to see that the ship Was steered her proper course, to heave the log, and obey general orders. The man at the wheel was under my supervision. I had to see that he steered the right course. All the different courses given during that watch I am sure were attended to. At the time the vessel struck we were steering N. by W. Major Thomas Fane said,—l am at present an officer unattached in her Majesty's service. I was a passenger on board the Alma on her last voyage, and was on deck the whole night until she struck. I heard one of the officers rush past me and give some orders which awoke me. I also heard Mr. Davis giving orders forward, and immediately after that I heard the ship strike. I instantly rushed to the side of the ship, and on looking over saw that we were on a reef. About half an hour after the boats, with the ladies, suddenly disappeared. I cannot say at what distance the boats disappeared, but could hear the oars. It seemed to me that there was a haze over them. The boats lauded about 150 yards off. _ _ _ [A sketch of the reef taken by a witness on board her Majesty's ship Cyclops was here produced.] Mr. Cumberland here stated that it was not his intention to pet any other witnesses under exami nation that day, and the inquiry was therefore further adjourned. JONATHAN'S RID.E TO .PEKIN. (From Punch. TUNE—" Yankee Doodle." Our nation always goes ahead, By methods noways sneakin'; Hear how our minister got In triumph into Pekin : I calculate that he warn't barred By planks athwart a river; Too 'cute a coon was Mr. War Whose story I'll deliver. Firstways he steamed to Ning-Hou-Fou, Along with his Legation, And there our vessel was brought to • A posture of fixation. The Chinamen a box packed in Our diplomatic corpus, Conducted by a Mandarin, A-blowin' like a porpus. This box was made without a lid, But hadn't got no winder, That breathin' it might not forbid, But observation hinder. With necessaries it was stored, Though sight it held a check on, Had food and liquor both aboard, And backy, too, I reckon. Upon a raft 'twas sot to go, Considerable pretty, All up the lii-Tcheou-Yun-ho, To Chany's lust-chop city, And right slick through the Great Canal, Our minister to render Unto the Chinese capital, In dignity and splendour. At Pekin Gate upon a truck, Drawn by a team of oxen, Our citizens were proudly stuck, Still shut their grand state box in. Thus into Pekin town did drive, (Such honour seldom waits men !) Our nation's reprasentatiYe, And all our other statesmen. The truck was wheeled into the Court- Yard of a certain mansion, Whose walls cut all excursion short By space of narrer 'spatsion. Our envoys there was kep select, To whittle at their leisure, Some time a hearin' to expect, And wait the Emperor's pleasure. Their mission ended, fro s m their cage ••s Politely liberated, They were, in that same equipage They came in, Allocated, And brought, with care particular, To where they first intruded, Like blacks inside a nigger-car, As snug, and more secluded. I reckon that's the way to treat Our great and gl. rious nation, And offer humble pie to eat To them as flogs creation But we must swaller down our pride, When dollars we are seekin', And be content, old hos:, to ride In a hoss-box up to Pekin. COLONIAL BISHOPS.—The Bishop of St. Helena, Dr. Piers Claughton, will leave England in a few days ,for his diocese. The Bishop of Capetown, Dr. Gray, who has been mainly instrumental in procuring the erection of St. Helena into a separate see, is also about to return to the Cape colony. Th e new see becomes a suffragan to Cape town, and thus makes that province to consist of four bishoprics—vjz., Capetown, Grahamstown, Natal, and St. Helena. It has b een a d m i tted by the Colonial Secretary, after consultation with the law officers of the Crown and the Archbishop of Canterbury, that there is nothing to pre • vent the bishops of the church in South Africa from con secrating in their cathedral churches bishops to head mis sions in countries beyond the dominions of her Majesty.

LOMBARDI A later from Milan, dated Oct. 23, says Milan is the most unruly of towns and the Milanese the most ungovernable of peoples." This was the " refrain" which was repeated for years by the Austrians. It served as an excuse for the tight grasp in which Austria held the fair city. Nothing but the strong hand of military rule could keep in order this turbulent population, and the reins once loosened anarchy must needs follow. So long and so often has all this been dinned into the ears ofl Europe, that half of it at least believed the Milanese, the most incorrigible race of revolutionists. Nor did the appearance of the town under Austrian rule belie this belief ; on the contrary, it served to strengthen it. That sulky silence, that concentra tion of hatred which was stamped visibly on the physiognomy of the town, that captiousness with which every Govenment Measure was received as a new grievance and insult, were quite calculated to give some appearance of truth to the Austrian view of the Milanese character s It would have tired the patience of a saint that tough, premeditated illwill which saw in every concession, a sign of weakness and in every new rigour a fresh ground for com plaint. Well, all this has been changed, as if by magic. Let any one who knew Milan under the Austrians and who might have still some misgivings in this respect, come here now, look about him, and inquire, lam sure he'will go away with the im pression that Milan is the most quiet and orderly of towns, and the Milanese the most easily go verned people on the face of the earth. Its humour is like the deep blue ever-autumnal sky above it, brightening and gilding everything, the marble lace of the Duomo, the bold outlines of the Alps, and the vapours arising from the plain. As everything was bad that the Austrian Go vernment did, so everything that the Sardinian Government does is satisfactory. As the Austrian soldiers were detested and shunned, so the Sardi nian and French troops are courted and petted. Scarcely a single administrative disposition has been altered, the old taxes not only not changed but increased by the extraordinary war-tax, almost the whole administration is carried on by the very men who were so ohjectionede in the finless of the Austrians; the Custom-house officers have kept on the very uniform which the Austrians had given them. In one word, Lombardy is living well nigh under the same laws as of old, and is content. In deed, the outward change is so small that one would almost be inclined to attribute the thorough change in the disposition of the people to a simple change of colours. Never has there been, perhaps, so much painting going on in a town as in Milan since the retreat of the Austrians; the black and yellow has disappeared and the red, white, and green taken its place everywhere. The white coats have gone, and blue and gray ones are in their place. The blue trousers are seen no more and their place is taken by red and gray ones. The helmet of the Austrian Gendarme has given way to the cocked hat of the French and Sardinian Gen darmes, and a band in blue kepis is playing where one in black shakos was wont to so-end its martial strains, and, en parenthese, much better. But this change of colours represents the down fall of foreign domination and the beginning of a National Government, so long desired, and this is the spell which has converted the silent city into one full of life and movement, which has changed a suspicious population into a, confiding one, and the turbulent Milanese into bons enfants. In spite of the delays which take place in the military organisation of Lombardy,—iu spite of the inconveniences caused by the maintenance of the provisional state of affairs,—confidence is scarcely shaken, and very little energy would be sufficient to restore it altogether. This is so much the more wonderful, as there is a general feeling in the population, a kind of instinct rather than a conviction founded on reasoning, that before next spring Italy will have to fight Austria, and that probably, without an ally. It is above all' in the higher class that confidence is least shaken, which is naturally explained by the more, conservative tendency which this class exercises everywhere. In the present instance this conservative feeling is very likely heightened by the recollection of 1848-9, and the fear of seeing the revolutionary element get the upper hand. Every one will sympathise with this feeling up to a certain point, but the question is whether there is not more danger in too great caution that in too great boldness. The national' feeling has awakened, and there is no mistake that it will as sert itself, but unless those in whose hand the lead now is prove themselves fit for the work it will seek leaders elsewhere. As for the peasantry, it is as most peasantries, if not all, it must not be ex pected to take an active part, unless it sees some material advantage in store for it. But, on the other hand, it may be led away without difficulty, especially if there is so strong a proportion of the active elements as there exist in Lombardy, with her many towns. The population in these is to a man with the movement, and ready for every sacri fice ; but, just because it has the national cause so much at heart, it is most anxious to see it progress and least likely to be satisfied with a lethargic Go vernment. As in Piedmont, in the Lombard towns the inactivity of the Government has produced the desire for the convocation of the. Chambers, which, with true instinct, are expected to inspire the Go vernment with the necessary energy, or, if neces sary, change. it into one more capable of coming up to the hopes of the people. Had there been any huthority shown, the thought of convoking the Chambers would probably not have occurred. Popular assemblies are too new in this part of the world to understand fully the strength which a Government derives from their existence and sup port. But under the circumstances the wish for them becomesmOre arid more general, and- this-wish is the best sign that all is not as it should be in the present Government of Piedmont. THE PAPAL STATES: A letter from Rome, dated Oct. 1, says :—Letters from the Marches inform us that on the Neapolitan confines, in the direction of Ascoli and Rici, troops are being concentrated, and it is believed that orders have been given to the soldiers in Romagna to advance on Pesaro and the Marches. The opinion here is that the Neapolitans have orders to protect the Pope in union with the Papal troops, who have directions on the slightest movement to leave Pesaro, Urbino, and other places, retiring upon Ancona. We have been expecting here the German volun teers whom Austria has not brought into discipline and sent to their homes. This new enrolment is said, however, to have been opposed by France. A telegram has been received hereto the effect that the Romagnoli were advancing, an a great apprehension was the consequence. The Secretary of State applied immediately to the Duke de Gram mont for counsel and instruction, according to re port. - The Duke was at Frascati, and on another person being applied to the curt answer was, "So much the better, as thus matters would terminate more quickly." " Oa the Duke's being applied to again," says the report, " his Excellency replied that ho s had nothing to do with the irrntheernaal lar g m o , ve w rn asy m :s.l e lh n ro t of Pre the State, and that the Sot\e-errmeiingantPdonti.Eftlinust do e to expl a i n t h e abrupt ce w iN s. h ee a r iflhatilessl false, s en d nd o e m se e d tih i i c ae t b a al t ffe e sa d il . rn " dismissal of th e Fi rs t S ecretary of teheqSuplean Em bassy, Senor l'Arnaud. In order to expedite the investment and the sale of the ecclesiastical pro perty in Spain, Arnaud, who for many years has cenducted the affairs of the Spanish Legation in Rome, received orders to obtain from the Papal Government an Apoatolic Brief, sanctioning the TUSCANY. A letter from Florence, dated Oct. 1, says,—The Italian cause has made what may seem, even to the soberest-minded people, a considerable step. The Tuscan Government, by a proclamation dated Sept. 29, announces that "King Victor Emmanuel ac cepted (accolse, received) the free deed of allegiance of the Tuscan, Modenese, Parmesan, and Romagnese people, and declared that the first act of his sove reignty would be to make good those rights he held from tho people." A meeting to:k place the other day on the sum mit of the Apennines which part Bologna from Flo rence, at an inn between Searicalasino and Lojano, between the three dictators, Farini, Cipriani, and Ricasoli, in which the measures now before us were proposed, discussed, and unanimously agreed upon. You know that Farini has for the last three or four weeks placed Parma and Modena in the very posi tion in which Tuscany is now, since the publication of yesterday's decrees. He has breathed his own brave spirit into the hearts cif his two confederates, and henceforth the four united provinces are com mitted to the same policy, and bound to follow one common destiny. Whatever may be the real ultimate fate of these Central Italian provinces, there is no doubt but a commercial and monetary league will be established between them. In the worst events Italy will be united in a confederacy, as we see the Getman Zoll verein making one country of the Ns hole Bund with out interfering with the individual sovereign rights of its 3G Princes, or influencing the good er bad policy of their internal Gouernments. Here, how ever, it.is almost high treason to express any misgiving as to the actual fusion or union of the " Great and strong Italian kingdom." Any step, however short and timid, taken by the Governments towards annexation gives rise to the most buoyant hope and the wildest exultation. It was market-day yesterday (Friday) at Florence, the union flag of Italy was hoisted on the tower of the Palazzo Vecchio, the square was full of country people, and the mass of the peasants were as frantic with joy as the warmest patriots could wish to see them—frantic with joy at the idea that their exist ence as Tuscans was at an end, and that their branch had merged into the common stock of the great Italian family—that Tuscany had given up her autonomia, or separate existence, only to become part of a State, or nation, to which a sufficient strength would insure the blessings of a really in dependent, free, and eternally united self-govern ment. The moral effect of these measures, in short, is infinitely greater than their real worth as political acts. It is a case of " better late than never," and the Tuscans are grateful for what they have re ceived. They give their rulers credit for that very indecision which characterised their policy hitherto, and which they look upon as caution and discretion. Men who have so long wavered and temporised, they think, would not now be so resolute and free did they not know how far they may venture with safety. They fancy their new boldness, which no new incidents or opportunity seems indeed to justify, must arise from some hint this Government has received from Turin or Biarritz. The article in the Illoniteur, for the tenth time disclaiming all 'dews of dynastic aggrandisement in Italy on the part of France, is supposed to have been fol lowed by some secret instructions to the Cabinets of Turin, Modena, Bologna, and Florence to be " up and doing." There are men here whose faith in the Emperor Napoleon would move mountains. They do not care to settle to their own satisfaction the question that if the Emperor is true to them, then must he break his most sacred promises to Rome and Austria; and that if he sets no store by his words to Austria and Rome, any reliance on his engagements to themselves is no better prop than a broken reed. That he has been tricking, and must ultimately swindle somebody, they are willing enough to acknowledge, only they have a sanguine assurance tilt they, at any rate, will not be the duped party ; nay, that the Emperor will maintain so much less than he promised to their adversaries in order to fulfil so much more than he promised to them, or, indeed, to fulfil what he never pro mised to them—to fulfil the very contrary of what he promised to them, as, in sober truth, he has always expressed himself to the effect that the an nexation scheme was " an impossibility." Private letters from Turin inform me that a long despatch in cipher from - the Emperor to the King reached Turin on the 24th, and was answered by the King from Monza. It is possible that the new energies displayed both by the King's Ministers and by the provisional rulers of Central Italy may be the result of some encouraging words from Biarritz ; for, if we are to believe the .Aioniteur, and if Napoleon 111. truly renounces the scheme of an Etrurian kingdom for Prince Jerome (whether or not such a scheme ever entered into his views), there certainly ought to be no reason why he should not rather wish to see these provinces united to Piedmont than brought back to Austrian allegiance by the restoration of the exiled Princes. General Fanti published his first order of the day on the 24th ult.,and Garibaldi, under whose standard flock the youth of Romagna in large masses, has opened a subscription for the purchase of small arms, the list bearing the name of the hero himself at its head. Central Italy will soon suffer from no lack of volunteer soldiers. Fanti has decreed that 20,000 men shall be the contingent of Romagna, and it is to be hoped that public munificence will aid the Government to bear the expence of their main tenance. The Tuscan armament alone, lam told, costs this country 15,000 dollars per day, something like £lOO,OOO sterling monthly, although the w hole Tuscan force, I believe, does not exceed 20,000 men. On the other hand, we hear that the Duke of Mo• dena's force amounts now to 17,000 men, and that the Grand Duke of Tuscany had scraped together 5,000 or 6,000 combatants. The actual numbers of the Papal army no man can ascertain, as the gar risons of Pesaro and Perugia are a kind of Dan aides' sieve, where as many men are lost by deser tion as are daily brought in by very lavish recruit ment. There is no doubt, however, that Austria is straining every nerve to supply the Pope and the Dukes with as many men as she can spare, and it is likely enough that she will not be very strict
