An exhibition of works of art and industry is to
be opened, at three o'clock in the afternoon, on Wednesday
next, at the Romsey Town-hall, in aid of the funds of the
Roomy Reading Society and Bonney volunteer corps.
Lord Palmerston has promised to be present.
Mgr. de Mdrode, Minister of Arms in the cabinet
of the Pope, has addressed a letter to the Marquis of Nor-
mally contradicting certain statements made by Earl
Rowell when speaking of Italy in the House of Lords on
the 27th February last. The document appears in the
Onion, and is published without any date.
" The Duchess of Parma, with her family," says
the 014 Destacke Post, " has left Vienna, after a its, of
only two days, for Venice, where the Duke of Modena and
t►e Greed Duke of Tuscany intend to hold a conference at
Easter."
" Two engineers," says the Trieste Gazette, " are
about to leave Vienna for America, to examine the Monitor
and Merrimac and tho fortifications of the coasts. The
committee on the navy, under the presidency of Count
Rechberg, has in the meantime adjourned."
The Economiste Belge says :—" There is some
question of convoking an International Congress for the
purpose of considering the propriety of henceforth placing
non-fortified towns under the protection of international
law. Should such a project be realised, Londe), Liver-
pool, Havre, Rotterdam, and Hamburg would be secure
from the dangers of war; whilst Antwerp, as a fortified
town, whether iron-plated or not, would be more than
ever devoted to destruction."
" Baron de Rothschild," says a letter from
Vienna, "gave, on Sunday last, a grand dinner, at which
were present the Duke of Gramont, Ambassador of France ;
Lord Bloomfield, the English Ambassador ; the Minister of
Foreign Affairs, Count de ReAberg; the Minister of
Finance, M. de ?Ismer ; and Prince Esterhuy."
Garibaldi dined the other day at the Palace
Cairoli, in Pavia, with about fifty friends. After dinner '
proposed a toast—" To the Italian martyrs." Madame
Cairoli sat beside him. Madame Cairoli was a widow, and
had five sons. When the Italian war broke out she de-
spatched them all to fight as volunteers. Three died upon
the field of battle. The fourth received • wound in the
head, which leaves him an invalid for life. The fifth, one
of the most eloquent deputies in the Italian parliament,
received wounds in the breast, arms, and legs, so that he
has to walk with crutches, and cannot nee his left arm.
Perhaps, when Garibaldi proposed his toast to the Italian
martyrs, he had not quite remembered by whose side he
sat. All at once he turned to her and then he saw that
Madame Cairoli was pale as a corpse and in tears. A sob
broke from Garibaldi; he seized the band of the suffering
and bereaved Italian mother, pressed it to his lips, and
