SAWYER and STRANGE, of the London, Fleet street, having taken this department, feel It to be but due to the public and to themselves to state the ar rangements by which they hope to secure the patronage of all c'asses of visitors to the Palace. In embarking upon this responsible under taking, they feel that their surest expectation of success rests on their henceforth rendering the REFRESHMENT DEPARTMENT a splendid and distinctive feature in vhe general attractions. Their first act, which has the sanction of the directors, will be to throw open a series of mat-mine , nt saloons in those localities of the Palace commanding the best views of the grounds, the fountains, and the exqui.ite scenery of the surroanding country. It is coned ntly hoped that every class of the community visiting the Palace-will dud both their tastes and their purses consulted in the refreshment arrangements ; for while the cuisine will contain everything that Is recherche in the best English clubs, ample accommodation will be afforded to that large class who may wish to study vonomy, and at the same time seek comfort. it will be the aim of the new proprietors to give the public as many facilities far enjoying the pleasures of the table as they could expect at the best houses of entertainment, either at the West End or in the City. It is hoped that by a system of manage ment at once liberal and economic, the holders of season tickets and families will be induced to avail themselves of the opportunities about to be afforded of dining well and che4ply. The arrangements for the general public must necessarily be of a very comprehensive character, and while the proprietors undertake to satisfy the most refined tastes, they will not neglect the more simple ones. By a judicious blending of the English with the foreign forms of the culi nary art they hope to make the department worthy of that world wide patronage which is bestowed on the Palace itsel . A novel feature will consist in the construction of a suite of smoking rooms, which will be of easy access from the refreshment saloons. The refreshments are now supplied by the new proprietors, but imme diate notice will be given of the completion of the larger arrange ments.

But after all the whispering, andascendingand descend ing and turning in th e pa ssa ge s o f th e p r i son , we arrived at the chamt ers of the Procuratore Generale or Attorney-General i where I was subjected to an interrogation,' the learned gentleman's object being to get me to substantiate certain assertions which he made. But to return to the intimidation question. When he had finished. his interrogations, And the attendant s were about to convey me away again, ' take him,' said the A ttorney-General, 'the oth , r way ; and lo ! I was in my cell in a twink liao., having passed through nothing but one welt-. lighted passage: " Whatever might be said of the irresponsibility of the Neapolitan government for the cruelty and extortion practsed by the oolers upon the unfor tunate inmates of the Vicaria, it is impossibl e to conceive the intention or source of command of thin species of ' iwerrogating.' " I cannot pass over one observation of the King lear ni . Naples ned.lawyer is by dispensed,whose hands and which the ' justice' will showofth very clearly-the animus by which he was inspired in regard to ours Ives. 'lf you were not a party to ihe iusurie. , tion try movement,' said he, ' why did you not hin4er the insurgents from proceeding on their voyage ?" Because we were acting on compulsion,' answered I. ' But, having charge of the engines and boilers, you could have altered the course of the ship.' The ship's c.atrse is guided by the helm.' That wo shall have to inquire into further,' continued be ; ' but it is evident you might have burst the boilers. Why did you not do that ?' Such is the manner and the-quality of the justice dispensed at the Vicar,ia. " Before taking leave of this wretched place, the three months' residence iu which had re &iced us all to a very low state, and bed turn d the brain of my unfortunate companion (Mr. Watt), I will just relate a slight circumstance, in order to show the brutal character of the treat ment meted out to one of the crew of the Cagliar'. The man, being taken with fever, was ordered to the prison hospital and taken there handcuffed. When so far restored as to be'or dered back to the dungeon, lie was again handcuffed, although E 0 weak as scarcely to be able to stand. The gaoler, whilst fixing the handcuffs, asked the prisoner what countryman he was. The prisoner, thinking that the question was put out of curiosity, reap,nd.ed in a simple manner, 'lam a Gen ese.' ' And I'm a Neapolitan,' added the gaoler, wrenching the hand cuffs so tight that the man bore the marks for weeks after. "At last the time came for our removal to Sa lerno, the assize town of the district, where the landing had taken place, and thiiher we were re moved, at night, in vehicles. Mr. Watt and I were placed iu a carriage together, handcuffed, and then our arms were tied together above the elbow-, as we sat side by side, and so tight that on arriving at our destination we found them quite discoloured, owing to the circulation of the blood stopped. We had two gendarme s with their iirelocks hi the carriage, oppo,ite to us, and one on the box with the coachman. " Bad enough as this treatment may appear, still our gendarmes thought they had been exceedingly clement, as upon finishing the journey they begged to be rementl'ered. " When in Salerno we had a better cell and bet ter air, but still very confined and close ; but our great st sufferings arose from the despair in which we were, as we were now aboVe six months in pri son without seeing our consul or a friend, or with out being brought to trial. "As I have before sfated, Mr. Watt's mind had become affected, even whilst in Naples, and upon arriving in Salerno he, in a fit of despondency, seiz,td a razor and would have saved the King of Naples and the EA/1 of Clarendon any further trouble by putting an end to his life, if he had no t been prevented. As for my part, I was attacked with fits at dill 'rent times, to which Iliad not been ever subject bcfoie. " During th,i whole of this time, although to tally neglected by our own government, we were k pt constantly iu the necessary funds by the kind ness of our Neapolitan friends ; without which as sistance, I have no 'hesitation in saying, we should have both perished in our loathsome duugcon. "At last, after some seven months' incarceration, we received a visit from the Rev. Mr. Pugh, the protestant clergyman resident at Naples, and soon after from Mr. Baibar, the consul. There was some misapprehension caused by the former gentle man's report of our condition and of our statements to him, but the matter was to a certain degree rectified by the consul. " The rev. gentleman must have felt inwardly convinced of our lack of want?, as he reported ; for he took 20 ducats away with him that had been en trusted to his care for supplying our wants, if needed, without over profferin g them. " When the trial commenced, we were taken in the morning from the prison to the court-house, handcuffed two and two, and were paraded through the town—a goodly show of some 250 released con victs, and the passengers and crew of the Cagliari, who had been rotting in ptisou nine months, in the same clothes they were taken in, and fed on one loaf of bread and one plate of soup, besides what they could purchase themselves. "I begged the judge not to cause us to be hand cuffed, and placed with felons, in one ca'egory. But he said he had no power to make any al.era tions, as it was the law. However, when the affair began to be discussed at home, and the attention of the ministers called officially to the subject, the law' was relaxed, and instead of the parade on foot we were conveyed to the court in carriages. This called forth the indignation of one of the Sar dinians. bra' ead,' said he, addressing the court, of sending us hero in carriages to deceive the pub lic, it would look better if you were to give us a cover to sleep under at night, or some more food.' "At the same time we were allowed exercise in the prison yard, and a larger and airier room as signed to us. "Of the trial, or rather judicial farce, I will say no more at present than that the presiding judge seemed to ma to be a very good old man and just, leaning towards all the accused, but as every point of law has to be settled by the telegraph wires from Gaeta (the residence of the King), he had but little to say, or rather to decide. The bench of judges is composed of seven, and there is no jury. The At torney-General, whose bias may be tested by what I related of him above, leaves no means of chicane unused to push the accusations against all parties. There were some moments of interest during the trial. It was said iu the indictment that a certain number of insurgents were killed iu an encounter with the troops commanded by Colonel So-and•so. The prisoners denied this, and affirmed they had suiTenclered and were shot afterwards, 56 of them. That is the man,' cried one of the prisoners, point ing to the colonel, who had entered the court, that is the man who commanded the prisoners to be shot.' " The gallant colonel's spirit seemed sadly troubled. Baron Nicotera, w ho, it will be remem bered, was the leader at the' seizure of the ship, still maintains throughout his courage, proclaims openly removal from pri his intention of subverting the G o vernment ; and, Upon one witness deposing that be (the baron) h a d given orders to cry ' Viva it Re ? ' he denied the as sertion ; for, said be, `Never irill I, nor never did s hE u_ s b t,i s ei e li g ann u pd e r t i i s t olnht:evne I, cry Viva for such a tyrant. of honorary " You are already aware of Mr. Watt's refusal to ,I am now to add that, t only son,attcn a d anf d t , e h ri e i i sp court, i!.ei ettirar n t o n ni s ot on a free footing, a . sort the issuo of the trial." bail, awaiting ("Aovaarrsamitsr.)—A most interesting recovery from a vast „.plication of diseases, such as indigestion (dyspepsia), flatulency, constipation, nervous, bilious, and liver corn. plaints, cough, asthma, consumption, and debility, without the aid of medicine, by Du Barry's Rova. beats Arabica Food, is recorded in the following let.. ter :—Cure 52,422.—" Bridgehouso, Frhuley, 3d April, 1854.

The friendly tendencies arose gradually from a nat ura l re- no ti on ag ainst the long deadly historical feud whi c h f oun d i ts acm e u n der the first Em pire, from a feeli ng o f th e ev il resu lts of the contest to both the nations, and from the spirit which stirs, provi dentially, within the heart if mankind, urging it to ge neral brotherhood. You needed yourself of them for your individual ambitious purposes, and perverted them for a while. Witl:in your heart, Sir, you hate England. Antagonism to its greatness is a family tradition with you. The Corsican vendetta-feeling rise deep in the narrowness of your soul, and your having lived a poor neglected exile in England has only embittered that feeling ; we can learn to love the shelter of our prescribed days ; sensuous aslGsh netures are only opsn to the feel ing which makes the benefit heavy and distasteful. Be fore the Peers, in 1836, you declared that you represented a principle, a cause, a defeat—that the defeat was Waterloo, and that you were bent on avenging it. Hatred to Albion has been your watchword to the bee racks immediately after the coup d'etat : the recent inso loree of your colonels is but an echo of it. War to Eng land was then, as it is now, your impotent dream ; and the dotted maps in your Cabinet de travail could bear witnesses for it. But you felt weak, isolated, frowned at. You yielded to necessity, and embraced the grow ing popular tendencies. You did not create the alliance; you countersigned it, with a mental reservation. The French-Anglo alliance, I do repeat it, is the thought of the two nations. Englishmen, too frequ-ntly unju-t now to the Republic of 1848. might not forget it. The February movement hal been welcomed —not, cer tainly, by the English official world—but by the majority of the British people. And never was the welcome so joyfully and 'gratefully received as by the R , - publicans of 1848. The 'diplomatic tradition was not for one instant broken .between the two na tions. Lord Normanby--kept officiously in his place during the first period —was officially accredited by England as soon as the Assembly gave its sanction to the change. The Russian ambassador, Kisseleff, proffered, from the beginning, a close alliance with the Czar against what he was calling the common enemy, England, and was refused by the young Republic. - A known general, now an exile, proposed soon after an invading filibustering schesne against England, threat ening the destruction of London and its sources of wea'th, and wanting nothing for its realisation but a certain number of soldiers, ships, and steamers, given up to his orders. The scheme was indignantly rejected, and the general sent back to his military commandment, which, for the sake of the proposal, he had suddenly abandoned. W;th such feelings at work, the least op portunity, the least advance front the English Govern ment, would have, doubtless, given ripe to an alliance, and whyi cothou yon, u ep, more pseird, sincere, hianv,e au nr moral, eoder a n England to. engrafted , and fruitful one than that reconciliation, which, under the banner o f Freedom, afd o n aim.the O sa f cr a sacred thng thing your selfish schemes, your ambitious solemn would have been like a blessing from on high on mans kind, you made a sad withering compact between liberty and tyranny, between life and death. England has been to you a mere stepping-stone for a dynastic interest ; the alliance, a ()ridge between the distrusting European Powers and yourself. Your first advances had been to Russia. Your natural tendencies, the logics of despotism, and some vague re miniscences of the Kremlin Conferences, spurred you there. Russia spurn.) 1 the advances : the Czar could not trust your word. Your agents had tried all the legitimation by marriage, :atos h raiseu t: n t o s n yeaci t c eas. against f ai l i ah l l German °Ants in search of a R oya l b r id e, o f a quas i . re e r a e n r d y w n a a s s t i f c w w b o i d r l d d e n w would have b een a su i c id e .

You wanted somet' d i ng your being accepted among s t Diplomatic Conference in Paris, your signature on a Treaty of Peace. The way to peace was war. You provoked it. England entered it by your side, re luctantly but in absolute good faith, and once the first steps taken with a stern determination to win from it some practical permanent result. You wanted, how ever, both to avoid any awakening of the national insur rectionary element and to play a primary part in the war. Yen sacrificed, therefore the strategic problem to the political one. 'To Riga and Odessa, von preferred the Crimea. There was the re no fear of a:Polish rising; and in a long protracted siege, your naturally superior land military force was to shine prominently over your ally. Besides, the war concentrated in the siege of an e o n u l t p p i o r s e , t a w a a d s kl leaving a p far fro v t i a ngto f y m ou theit the v p a o l B lt , 3 i a b r ii s of ityo t Russian f h : friendly l l in h i t m n , e a ! l u s t u d r a e y , : w i E t h a g t l h a e a d e . z o % i a t r o w u a s s e d e , n a w 6 o l II " : d g to you and to the culpable yielding weakness of the y op ou en t i e ng te have struck you to the heart—l spared you. Thus, owing British Government, the war, diverted from its natural lines of operation, became a brill'ant duel au premier sang with no possible result—the one excepted which you were pursuing, At thl,eunclusion of the first -cage, when Eogl ,nd was beginning to feel betheke steee-cities of the contest and its true Eurupriffbeaelni, the Cz.r consented to delay fora while the fulfiltesm of his 1 na cherished Eastern scheme.

Ought you riot prudently to forbear from uttering claims to her gratefulness and sympathies ! It is not mine to discuss with you what you urge E-g -land to do concerning the exiles. I am an exile and your enemy. I cannot stoop to argue with a tyrannical power about what I conceive to be my right and my duty. I overthrow it if I can. My words might be misinterpreted as a pleading for ourselves, and I shrink from that pos sibility. Any law that may be enacted affecting our po sition is perfectly indifferent to me ; just, I accept it ; unjust, I pledge myself to violate it, whatever the results may be. Ours is a state of war. We have not chosen it ; it has been, it still is, forced upon us. Tyranny has robbed us of our country ; we have none ; we have no power protecting es, no passport, no law to which we can appeal, no justice on earth except when we ourselves can enforce it. Throughout all the Continent we are, merely because we are republicans or upholders of our national fl ags, d eclared suspects, and as such itni,erisoned, internes, deprives of any possibility of secure settlement, persecuted, treated as pariahs, hunted as helots.

You cannot exact from that we, allowing the fact t exist, undertake to forbid the fatal consequences which may eventually flow from it." Such, sir, is the answer which England has virtually given, and will always give, I trust, by the voice of her people, to your illiberal, unwarrantable demands. Through these demands, meanwhile, and through the indirect threateniugs with which you coupled them, you have descended one step more on your downfalling career. You have aroused the old independent Sax m blood within the hearts of millions. You have unveiled the shameful price which you would fain set on a barren, when not fatal alliance. You have tithisiiked 'to the world the terrors which, Hie the shadow of crime, are ever walking by your side. You have once mere awakened the hitherto dormant sense of self dignity in the conscience of men, and given rise to a resistance which will soon become a European one. You have caused the only prestige which still hovered around you —the approval and friendship of a free people—to vanish. You stand new, Sir, whatever soft-mouthed, self-disguising diplomacy may talk, alone in Europe. THE CASE OF THE CAGLIARI. MR. PARK'S NARRATIVE. We have been favoured (says the Manchester Guardian) by a gentleman connected with this city w.th the following narrative, taken down by him from the recital of Mr. Park, the second engineer of the Cagliari, two days after Mr. Park had beet set at liberty by the Neapolitan authoriti' s : " Shortly after leaving Genoa, on our voyage to Cagliari and Tunis, between which ports our steamer carried the mails, I observed to one of the stokers, who happened to be standing near me on the deck, that there seemed to be a large number of passeugrs on board, to which he answered in the affirmative, adding that the most part of them were seamen going to join two merchantmen lying at Cagliari, waiting for crews. I requested him to ask one of the men what ship they were going to join, which he did, and received for an answer that we should soon sae what ship they were going to join ; the man aiding in a very significant manner, `Youhad better go below, and mind your work, and you will not be hutted.' These words, added to the men's apparance, struck me so forcibly that I went below to the engine-room, and stated my belief to my fellow-engineer (Mr. Watt) that we had a gang of pirates en board, who were going to seize the ship. This startling communication naturally sent him on deck t 3 satisfy his curiosity, which, however, was soon done, as he came below again in a short time, with the best proof of the c u'reetnese of my suspicion, having seen the captain seized by armed men, and placed under restraint. "In a few minutes after learning this momentous fact, I went up to see what further was going on, when I had scarcely reached the d ec k before I was seized by four a,raned men, and taken into the pre sence of an individual, who held in one hand a letter and in the other a drawn dagger, and who, presenting the letter to me, demanded me to an swer its contents. I replied that, as it was dark where we were, I would go to a light and read it, and then give hint my answer. To this he as sented, and I went down into the engine-room with it, and read it there to my fellow-engikerr. Its contents were to the effect that. if wo continued to do our duty, and work the engines as usual, no harm should come to us ; but that the least resist ance or refractoriness upon our part would be fol lowed by instant death. " We considered for a 'moment what was to be done, and having eur helpless position in view, we concluded that our only way was to obey the orders of our new masters. Our con-ultation was, however, cut short by the appearance of the men who had dragged ma before the ringleader, and who now, descending into the engine-room, and pointing heir arms at us, asked us to state our in tentions. Upon learning them they desired us to cry, Viva l'ltalia,' and, upon our complying, em braced us, and called us brothers, &c. By this time the entire ship, with crew and passengers, were in the hands of the pirates. "It may hero be observed that the persox who presented the letter to me was the Baron Nicotera, who, as it is seen, thus took a most active part in the affair front the commencement, and who, even after nine months' weary imprisonment, shows still an undaunted spirit, and boldly avows before the . 1 judges all his acts and intentions. "The letter itself, it must be borne in mind, was I neither directed to anyone nor subscribed by any one, but was simply a notification of their inten tions written in English, and intended for the en gineers of the boarAwhoever they might be ; the rineleaders of the party knowing we l l thatm the en gineers of all the boats were Englishen, and sur mising that they might not understand their mean ing so well if they communicated it in Italian as if it were written down for them in their native tongue. However natural this may appear, still th© Attorney-General of his Majesty of the Two Sicilles saw in the existence of this letter, (which I had even copied into my log-book, for fear it might be lost, seeing therein the justification of ourselves) a positive proof of our participation in the conspi racy, being, as ho stated, in corre s p on d ence w ith the insurgents. " But to follow the thread of my narrative. The insurgents being now fully masters of the vessel, began to make free with the good things on board, and broached some champagne to the success of their enterprise. " If all things had gone right we were that night (the first after our departure from Genoa, to have fallen in with some boat or boats, with 60 men and 100 stand of arms, coining from the shores of Tuscany to join our expedition ; but, whatever might have been the cause of their absence, come they did not; and thus the first part of the scheme failed. This circumstance caused a visible depression of spirits amongst the party. " The captain of the Cagliari being confined in his own cabin, a passenger who was a seafaring man was compelled to take command of the ship, and received orders to steer for the island of PODZA, a penal set tlement of the Neapolitan Government, lying off the mainland, and perhaps 80 miles from Naples. Oa this day, and whilst near the island of Eiba, we passed the British squadron sailing to the northward. To prevent any signal being made of what was going on, the crew and ourselves were sent below and watched by the insurgents until the squadron had pa-sed ; so that it was impossible to make known oar position to them. Baron Nico tera and Pisecane, who took the command, em ployed themselves during thi s d a y i n e xamining the captain and crew, and having ascertained from the steward that there were some cases of tire-arms iu the hold (part of the cargo),got them up and broke them open. They turned out to be for the most part blunderbusses and fowling-pieces, and they were distributed amongst the insurgents. " We also came in for our share of examination, and having stated in answer to a question that we had not much fuel on board, having left Genoa ten tons short, we were told th tt we were to use great economy, and that in the event of theship running short of coal, our (the two Riglish engineers) heads should be put under the boilers. " At last we hove in sight of Ponzi, and a signal was h dire(' for a pilot, and as soon as one Came on board, a pistol was held to his head, and he was told that if he did not answer all questions truthfully, he would be shot instanter. The poor fellow, in great fear, told all ho knew about the number of prisoners (convicts) and soldiers on the island, and tiro amount of arms and ammunition they possesed. The governor of the island, who had also come on board, was quietly locked up with the captain. _ . " The insurgents (whose number was 25) then got the boats manned by the ship's crew, and leaving seven of their number well armed to guard the passengers, engineers, and the rest who re mained on hoard, went on shore to liberate the convicts of Ponza. We had flattered ourselves that we should be able to escape with theslirheby, y slipping her cable when the piratos left us, but foreseeing this, had given orders to ti aces, pi guard ua to keep us locked u" in separate left i to so that all possibility of escape wa s cut io The 19 armed insurgent s, having off. mastered the garrison of the place, lib :rated the convicts, about 300 in number, and sringing them on Loud, we MAZZINI AND LOUIS NAPOLEON. We publish the following extracts from a letter of Mazzini to Louis Napoleon. It is right we should state that we do not concur in all the sentiments they con tain : Yes ; the Empire has proved a lie. You shaped it, Sir, to your own image. No men, during the last half century, has lied in Europe, 'ralleyrand excepted, as much as you have ; and that is the reason of your tem porary power. In this unsettled sceptical age of ours, lies are easily believed in ; only they do not endure. You called, in 1831 (2), together with your brother, the insurrectionary movement of the Roman popula tions against the Pope a sacred cause ; you brand it now, and since 1849, as a demagogic one. You said, in 1833 (3), at Arenenberg, that all noble souls being driven into exile, or persecuted by govern ments, you were feeling proud of belonging to the tribe of the proscribed. You have since organised a general relentless persecution against them. You declared in 1836 (4), when, after the Strasbourg attempt, Louis Philippe sent you to America, that you were feeling guilty to him, deeply touched by hie gene rous clemency, and pledged to not conspire against him any more. Two years after, you were conspiring against him from Switzerland. Four years after, you were landing at Boulogne. You hastened in 1848 to Paris, "to join the flag of the Republic (5), and evince your devotedness to its cause." You wrote during the same year (6) :—"ln the pre sence of the national sovereignty, I cannot nor will claim anything beyond the rights of a French citizen." You wrote as a candidate for the Presidency in No vember :—(7) "There must be no equivocation between you and me.. I am not an ambitious man, dreaming of the Empire. Trained in free countries and taught by unhappiness, I shall always prove faithful to the duties imposed by your votes, and by the will of the Assem bly. Were I elected President I would pledge my ho nour for my yielding, after four year, to my successor a strengthened power, and liberty in tact." You wrote as President in December: (8) " The oath I have been taking commands my future conduct. I Nball look as upon enemies of the country, upon all those who would attempt to change by illegal means what the cvb,.lo (.f France has established." Before these words were spoken, an expedition to Rome had been pltnned, merely to ensure the personal safety of the Pope, by Cavaignac. You had blamed it. " I never could," you had said, " give my vote to a military demonstration, dangerous even for the interests it aims at protecting." (9) Y.ur months after your troops were landing at Civita Vecchia. In 1849, (10) through a proclamation dictated to Gen. Oudinot, you &elated that it was not your aim to ex ercise on Rome an oppressing influence, nor to force upon liar a Government contrary to the will of the peo p'e. Three months after, Rome, her Government, the will of her people, were inexorably cru Soon after, in August, (11) you pledged yourself to obtain for Rome " a general anuuesty, a secular admi nistration, the adoption of the French codes, and a liberal Government." Your troops are still in Rome, and nothinv has been obtained nor is claimed. In 1849, you concluded your first message (12) by saying, " I sha►l deserve the confiience of the nation. by preserving the constitution to which I have sworn." In 1850, (13) you solemnly uttered these words : "If the constitution is framed with vices and dangers, you are all free to strike them away. I alone, bound by my oath, hold myself pledged to keep strictly within its limits." In 1851, a few days before the coup d'etat, (14) yon sa'd to tho army :—" I shall ask nothing from you be yond my right recognisel by the Constitution." And on the 2d of December itself—the final result of the usurping scheme still pending—you proclaimed that " your duty was to protect the Republic. , ' (15) Then came the sudden violation of the oaths and pledges—the one atubitious will substituted for the legally expresser) will of the nation—the ferocious appeal to bru tal force—the inexorable orders to Saint Arnaud—the Assembly half-scattered, half-imprisoned—the generals arrested—France cosaque hurled at France republicaine —Paris given up to a bribed, excited, intoxicated, piti less soldiery—the line and platoon fire against an unarmed, inoffensive population on the Boulevards— slatighter methodically carried on for the mere purpose of striking terror in the souls of the future voters — women, children murdered in their houses—prisoners shot—two thousand six hundred and fifty-two victims (16)— eighty-eight representatives of the people pro scribed-100,000 men imprisoned, transported, internes, without even the semblance of a trial—the triumph — the mock election. And you hoped that on such a systematic lie, on such an edifice of mire and blood, a dynasty would be raised I You believed that the transient, ephemeral idolatry of all actually ruling powers to success, would prevail against the Cain's mark which God and Justice have branded on your brow ! Sir, there is something above success : God ; some thing stronger than fact : Right ; something higher and more enduring than idolatry : Time. Can you dethrone God ? Can you cancel Right ? Can you abol•sh Time ?, For, whilst there is God in heaven, the notion of right in the heart of man, and time allowed, no real or sham Emperor, no genius -endowed Uncle, or satanically clever Nephew, is allowed to substitute, in the nineteenth cen tury, his own selfishness to the providential marching-on of mankind ; no individual, however supported by priests and bayonets, is allowed to step forward and say —I am the uncontrollable, irresponsible mind of thirty-five millions of men, without his being doomed to fall, an example to masters, a deep teaching to subjects. After the crossing ef the Rubicon, the avenging dagger of Brutus ; after the Tuileries, St. Helena ; and between the two, a short, restless, hateful, remorseless career ; and after the two, History, the universal conscience of mankind, which brands the tyrant for ever. It is the law—stern, unavoidable, unconquerable. You have speculated on vice and weakness ; reckoned on terror and cowardice ; fathomed deep, with the piercing eye of the Dissolving One, the crust of corruption which the materialism of the first Eeipire, fifteen years of jesuitical monarchical opposition, Egotism enthroned during the reign of Louis Philippe, and the anarchi cal dreams of sectarian socialism, have spread on the heart of your countryme n ; and you have said to your self : They are mine. You forgot that under the superficial alluvial layer was remaining unconquered, untouched, the noble solid parent earth of France, which gave growth to Joan yf Arc and to the giant men of the Revolution. You forget that Europe, even official, fact-worshipping, godless Europe, would bend before you only as long as the strength of the fact you seek to represent would peacefully and progressively increase, whilst it is more arid more visibly contested and threatened. And you forgot that between you and materialist Europe stand men whom you can neither bend nor break, whose life is the em bedirneet of a principle at work, since Marathon, through the European race, and K ho must prove in the end stronger than you, because they never have broken their oaths e and they do not fight, like you, for selfish atheistical purposes. We, the men of Right and Free done, have conquered the Inquisition and the Great Empire ; depend upon it, Sir, we shall conquer you. We shou'd have conquered you already had it not been for England. 111. You are very ungrattful, Sir, to England. Without England, without the help which, in an ill-fated hour, the Eugli,h Government tendered to you, you would have perished long ago. It is to England that you owe the sort of legitimacy amongst European constituted Powers, which you never would have conquered alone. It is the alliance of England which has kept hitherto Italy and France in abeyance —you forget it now. Yon frequently allude to the advantages which have accrued to England from it ; you speak of it as if it had sprung up from your own conception. There is no truth in either assertion. And as many Englishmen seem Aril bunt on being misguided by the boldness of your utterance, it may be useful that, in the name of truth, I should here record my double protest against it. _ _ Fre ch-Anglo alliance is nct your own thought. It is the thought of France and England ; you have dcne weighei anchlr, and geared for Sapri, in the Bby of Salerno. Hale the plot failed again, for it had boon imagined by the oonspirAtors that the prisons of Ponza were filled with political offenders who would eag Tly embrace their cause ; but instead of of that they found murderers, assassins, and the very worst sort of criaiinal' offenders ; all very willing to be set at liberty, but having little inclination to, rally round the standard of Italy's &min'''. "Any person may imagine what a ship we had, with 300 of the most vicious convicts on board, and without subordination. " From Ponza we steered for Sapri in the Gulf of Salerno, and upon nearing the same we passed another steamer, when all our convicts were ordered to lie down on deck, in order to avoid raising suspicion by their great number. "At last we reached the place of destination, and we were happy to see the lawless gang of revolu tionists and felons leave our decks, to embark on their perilous enterprise, and for the first moment we felt ourselves free agents, which we instantly took advantage of to set sail, and so part company with our late masters. " What course the insurgents took after leaving us does not properly appertain to my story, but in a few words it may be related. Many of the convicts dispersed immediately upon landing, and set to work plundering the population ; and even some charges of murder are brought against them. Others deserted as root' as conveeient, and the revolutionists and remainder having penetrated iuto the interior, expecting to find 600 msn in arms to join them, met instead with the soldiers sent after them, and, being- without ammunition, were soon overpowered, and partly slain, partly taken prisoners. "To return, however, to ourselves. As soon as we got rid of our self-constituted captain, and were our own masters, we steamed off, and our Captain shaped his course towards Naples, thinking it the wiser plan to proceed thither, and make a declaration of what had occurred. Upon our way, we were met by two Neapolitan war steamers, that had been sent in our pursuit (at which time we, were sonic 12 miles from slice e), when we were brought up by one of them firing a shot across u 4, and the captain was ordered to go on board with his ship's papers. Hereupon our ship was taken possession of, and we were escorted back to Sapri, where we lay several days ; the officers of the war steamers telling us that they would give us coal to take ua on to Cagliari, whither we were bound before the act of piracy took place. At last orders came that we were to go to Naples, and upon our arrival there were much sympathised with by the man-of war officers, who expressed themselves very sorry to see us in such an unpleasant piece of business. At last they said we would have to go ou shore for a few days, and that then the ship would be set at liberty, we should have coals given to us, and we could depart. We, taking all these fair words for truth, and never suspecting what was in the wind, consented to everything, and went on shore with the captain, crew, and passengers, when we were put into carriages, and immediately handcuffed, and, escorted by military, were conducted to the Vicaria poison. I mu.t not forget to state that a gentleman belonging to the arsenal, seeing myself and fellow-engineer handcuffed together, told who we were, and the handcuffs were taken off, on the road to the prison. " You know that the Vicaria is the worst of the pris sus in Naples, and it richly merits its notoriety, for it is beyond belief that in a European country such an abominable den should exist, or that a Government laying claim to being a Christian one should dare to offend the dignity of human nature by confining human beings in such damp and filthy places. "The first proceeding upon arrival at the prison was to unclothe us entirely, and .search our clothes and persons, even to the hair on our heads. We were then conducted by a dark passage through a numb r of massive doors, each of which was un locked and locked again as we passed, until we arrived at a cell into which eight of us were put. This cell was so small that our mattresses placed round the walls were touching each other ; we had no chairs, but sat on the beds ; and the only light was furnished by a window strongly grated, and which we were prevented looking out of, as a sentry (a Swiss mercenary), who paced 'the courtyard, had orders to shoot any prisoner who might stand at . tbe window. Besides our cell was horribly damp, so that we nearly all suffered from its effects in pains in the legs ; and it was so infested by rats, that in one night shortly after our arrival I caught seven large ones, having made a trap of one of my boots. But the worst evils were the bad air and bad water. There was no ventila tion, and a large wooden tub, which served us for the most necessary wants, emitted such effluvia that we lived in a constant state of nausea. This was heightened by the turnkeys neglecting sometimes to empry it, in order to force a bribe from us, and in which they were generally successful. The water, too, was served to us in a wooden pall, which was so dirty that it gave a taste to the water, which made it unfit to drink. This was also made a source of eineluine.nt to the gaolers, for they served us with drinkable water for one halfpenny a glass. " The King of Naples allows his prisoners straw and a damp floor to sleep on, vermin and rats for bedfellows, a small loaf of black bread and a plate of soup for food, a pestiferous atmosphere to inhale, and musty stale water to drink ; but he also allows Lis gaolers to sell victuals and drink, and to let beds to such prisoners as are so fortuutve as to have friends with money to pay for them. " Upon our entrance into the gaol, the first ques tion we were asked by the al ten lauts was, e If we wanted beds ?' as we could have them by paying 4d. per night. Of course we asked for beds, and re ceived each a low bedstock and mattress, which lat ter was, however, ext r e me ly uncom f orta bl e , owing toits being made of unpicked oakum. - Siill the greatest evil of the beds' was one which discovered itself afterwards—namely, their being full of ver min,with which we found ourselves soon covered. " I must not forget to mention another sort of companions which were sufficiently nronetous— namely, flat lizards, which ran up and down the walls and added not a little to the repulsiveness of the place. " As we two (the English engineers) had some GO francs on us when we enter: d, and as we lelieved we were only going to stop a few days, we spent it pretty freely (getting at the same time very little for our money), but as day after day came and no signs of liberty, we began to get rather anxious for our future condition, more pirticularly as we had fully expected to have been visited by the English Consul, or some one in his name. But no consul, no friend, and we were just on the verge of being obliged to content ourselves with the black loaf and plate of bean water yclept soup, and to see our beds taken away, and substituted by the truss of straw and the damp floor of our cell, when succour arrived by the kind exertions of some private in , li viduals resident in Naples, who, aware of our des perate condition if left without help, bad succeeded in bribing the turnkeys to take us money i©, so that we were thereby enabled to avoid the miser able lot of the Sardinian crew, who were put into large filthy dungeons, end obliged to sleep on the floor without covers, and upon a straw litter that was dirtier than any farmer would allow to lie in stall or stable. "Thus we two English subjects were kept for three long months rotting in a filthy dungeon, awaiting our trial in a town in which resided an English Consul, and within gun-shot of an English man-uf-war, whilst the authorities at home were blandly explaining to the house that the jurisdic tion of the government was beyond all doubt. " I believe (being since informed) that upon being moved by the aforesaid friends, the English Consul at Naples had applied at the prison for admittance, but was refused, so that if we lain perished in our prison, the fault would have a l n i, at the door of the government at houvi , ., e ," , perished we certainly should, had we not been ° la u h cou/d dreadful cowl' l'" as already explained, by our friends ; for w • t • ~ live three months in such a t u p with the wi font succumbing, i f i ed, and as p: icon allowance 1 It has been obliged to stoutly denied, that torture was ertaining to my prisons ; and, although i l s t p be not amiss to state -P er . observation as an inmate own history, it will what has come unde r rr o i was in the witieiltiwiise s s u a l w je h et ra . d a n attack of paralysi t s o , of tl . l j e l. prison prisoner le r v j ni g o , _; i tiou shaking his limbs as if most wretched r u t told tie prison, u he labourin, tin arrestedtied by a rope in the way known as w e bilBt in bed, conveyed was interrogated as to his knowledge of the robbery. b i A s ho denied all knowledge of it the pinioned , ropo was tightened up b e hi n d , and the question put aga i n , followed up by another strain, until his elbows were brought together ; but still denying all knowledge, he was after a time taken away, and confined in a subterraueous cell for 25 days, and was, when we saw him, upon the point of being set at liberty upon his promising solemnly that he would never reveal outside to what u tage he h. d been subjected.
