THE NEW KINGDOM OF NAPLES.

IMPORTANT REPORT OF M. LE FARINI, LIEUT.-
GEN..OF NAPLES, TO KING. VICTOR EMMANUEL,
DESCRIPTIVE OF HIS MAJESTY'S NEW AQUI-
SITIONS.
Sire,—lt has been your Majesty's pleasure to
cutrust me with the government of these noble pro-
'duces, in the solemn moment when they are entering,
both socially and politically, into that Italian commu-
nity, which in all ages they have enriched with so large
a tribute of intellectual glory.
"In the fulfilment of the duty with which I am
honoured, I will take for my guidance those maxims:
*which your Majesty has laid down in your manifestoes,.:
and which the whole nation has looked upon as the'
Zrogramme and the promise of the Italian kingdom.
II will take for my example those modes of government
*which, to the applause of all civilised nations, and with
such glorious results, have been adopted in your ancient
Provinces, which are grateful to you for having become
through your agency the chief instrument for the libera-
tion of Italy.
"The Italian people know, Sire, the way in which
the government is carried on which is associated with
Your name. Your government calls in the aid of liberty
and civilisation, for the prosperity and strength of our
Country must depend upon the moral and social progress
of its people. Your government is anxious to promote
the instruction and the religions instruction of your
people, to promote an increase of learning, as well as an
increase of industry and commerce, which bring about
an increase in the welfare and the self-satisfaction of
the population. At the same time your government
exerts itself to renovate throughout Italy military tradi-
tions and a military spirit, which is in itself not only an
element of strength, but also a means of moral education,
because it trains nations to the virtue of discipline, and
to the worship of duty.
"But the organisation of a liberal and civilised
government is not the only end which it behoves Italians
to put forward all their energies to achieve. They must
also amalgamate into one state the scattered members of
One common family.
" The life of Italy was variously subdivided according
to the painful destinies registered in our history; but
the separate provinces became, by the natural virtues of
our race, so many glorious centres of civilisation and
moral traditions. The long existence of the old States
of Italy has created many private interests. These
traditions and these interests must be respected in all
those points which are not contrary to the principle of
unity.
" Italy, knowing she cannot find peace and durable
prosperity unless united under your dynasty, feels the
Unportance of preserving, as a guarantee of civilisation
and liberty, against the usurpations of an excessive
centralisation, the traditional development of her local
activity.
"This double object of Italian policy does not any-
'Whore appear more clearly than in the Neapolitan
Provinces both on account of the importance of the
State which they previously constituted, and because
,represented by a splendid capital, one of the most popu-
lous and illustrious cities of Europe.
"Under such circumstances it is manifest that if the
government which is being here established in the name
and authority of your Majesty, is immediately to start
from those great principles which are the foundation of
Your Majesty's civil system, the ultimate organisation of
those provinces, as generally of all Italy, belongs by
tight to the consideration and decision of the parliament
which represents the nation. It will not be impossible
for the genius and practical common sense of the Italians
to lay down rules by which the great provinces of Italy
luny remain free in the administration of their private
interests, and yet be firmly joined in the representation
of a strong state.
" By means of such a system, patriotism and civil
activity will always be free to manifest themselves in
the triple sphere of the state, the province, and the city',
1111 d the various capitals of Italy will increase in splendour.
in proportion to the collective vitality of the nation;
pwhich will be everywhere more efficacious and vigorous.
This is the duty reserved for parliament, and which
Parliament alone can accomplish, because it is the
supreme representative of the will of all, and because in
I,country under a free government, it is but right that
the
tae government should let liberty enjoy the merit and
honour of giving the nation its fundamental institutions.
" The powers which I have received from your Majesty
shall be devoted chiefly to complete the preparations re-
