administrations, in which even the oldest employes
are agitating against the dynasty ; in the press,
(nay, even in the ministerial press,). which
assigns to Garibaldi the part of a saviour •
and of a deliverer ; in the people, who no
longer accept their sovereign, and are
purchasing portraits of Victor Emmanuel,
and even among the timorous Bourgeoise
who see only one way, " pour sortir au pro-
visoire." In presence of such a state of matters,
people are astonished that the. Revolution is not
already accomplished, but I can assure you that
this will not be done without Garibaldi. Mean-
while, the Ministry each day becomes more
feeble, it is exhausting itself in insufficient
measures, in appointments, and in tardy dis-
missals, which reassure nobody, and in reality,
change nothing : in circulars and in decrees,
which are nothing more than fine words ; they
decide upon the amputation of a finger, when
the gangrene is in the foot ; they will cut off the
foot when the gangrene shall have reached the
heart; instead of energetic resolutions, they
indulge in forming only timid and wily projects ;
instead of making use of power by restoring the
popular confidence in it, they disarm it in detail,
and in so doing, serve only the cause of the
Revolution; and we thus find ourselves the sad
spectators of the decomposition of a monarchy
which had great and splendid days before it, and
was worthy of falling in a manner more dignified ;
it is a heartrending sight, and it causes both shame
and pity. A circular for emptying the prisons
and abolishing the bastinada ; another to increase
the grant for public works, so as to give employ-
ment to labourers out of work ; a letter from the
Count de Trani, in which this compromised prince
makes advances to the National Guard ; these
constitute the whole of the official bayage' of
these latter days."
I have nowhere else 'met with so eloquent and
perfect a description of the present provisional
state of affairs at Naples as the foregoing ; and I
call your particular attention to it. I may add
that the officers of the army are represented as
falling one after another into the same revolu-
tionary torrent, and that it needs only a reaction,
a coup d'etat, like that of the 15th of May, to
bring this state of anarchy to a crisis, without
saving the throne.
Notwithstanding the humility of the propositions
which MM. Manna and De la Greca were com-
missioned to lay at the feet of*Victor Emmanuel,
they have met with a distinct refusal, which
neither France nor England seem to have shown
any disposition to disturb ; and those Powers
which were formerly banded together for the
purpose of opposing liberal ideas ; those very
Sovereigns who have a personal interest in every
instance where legitimacy is shaking or giving
way, look on with indifference, perhaps, if not
with positisie satisfaction, whilst a kingdom, con-

sisting of ten millions of souls and abounding in
resources, is being conquered by a partisan chief,
who lately landed on the lesser. Sicily, at the head
of a few hundred followers, who had scarcely any
other equipments than the arms they wore, and
the clothes on their backs.
Some details from Palermo are published con-
nected with the state of things in that city on the
2nd instant, and the organisation of the descent
upon Calabria. It 'appears that S. Depretis,
who, in the absence of Garibaldi, is discharging
the civil functions of the dictatorship at Palermo,
is doing his work well. There will, doubtless,
be further news from Sicily soon.

Lord Dufferin, the English commissioner to
the Syrian expedition, has left this for Constan-
tinople, where he is to remain for several days
before going on to Lebanon. His lordship is accom-
panied. by three attaches.
M. Jules Favre, the celebrated democratic
orator and pleader, has been elected by a large
number—though not by a sufficient majority—
of the Parisian bar, as Batonnier, or Dean,
as the corresponding distinction is called in the
northern division of the United Kingdom, a
selection, which is significant, because it was in no
ways controlled. A second attempt to increase
his majority was unsuccessful, and the election is
adjourned till Monday.
Paris is busy at present with the annual distri-
bution of prizes to the successful candidates for
honours in the Bonaparte Lyceum, and other
educational institutions ; and another and simi-
larly noteworthy indication of that spirit of
independence which continues to take root and
flourish in every soil where it is not trodden
under foot, or suffocated in the embraces of admi-
nistrative solicitude, has just been exhibited on the
part of some of the laureats of these establish-
ments, who declined to compete for the prize
offered for a theme, of which the subject was
4‘ the death of Prince Jerome."
No change has oocurred in the state of the
Bourse. The market is becoming more and more
deserted, and it is without any elasticity or vigour.
Transactions are still less frequent, and prices
never vary beyond a few francs. Rentes vary
from 68 25 to 68 20.

purity of life and faith in the Saviour.
