PARIS, Szrr. 18.

The Esprit Public of to-day denies the rumour of
the resignation of certain members of the Rattazzi
cabinet, and Mates that Signori Couforti and
Depretia will retain their portfolios.
The same journal publishes letters and document;
seeking to prove that Mazzini was the instigator of
the organisers of the Garibaldian expedition, and
says :—" After the defeat at Aspromonte assassins
disembarked on Italian soil, in order to attack the
most exalted personages. In view of such facts, the
Italian ministry were compelled to order a trial,
to prove with whom lay the responsibility of
the blood that has been shed."

EiriouLan Cam —A child wax taken the other
day to the Civil Hospital of this town to have a leech re-
moved. which had embedded itself under the skin behind
the angle of the jaw where, at the time it was being sp.
plied with other; for • remedial purpose, it had made a very
small aperture scarcely large enough to admit the head of
so ordinary sized pin ; and it was not without much hesi-
tation that the surgeon laid open the 'tract with a biatoug,
slid sure enough succeeded iu recnoving• well-gorged leech,
greatly to the relief of the little sufferer and joy of the
west.. Had the operation been neglected, it is not im-
probable the child would have lost its life, from the close
proximityof the leech to the carotid artery wad jugular
ve!os, which were in danger of being wounded by its 1)40.
f:donator Chronicle.

I cannot tell whether or not Victor Emmanuel
has discovered some secret French intrigue, but I
know for certain that he is highly incensed against
the French ministry, ►nd that he has written a
letter to the Emperor, which breathes in every line
the bold spirit of the old Princes of Savoy, who
never knew what fear was, even when they had to
contend with tenfold superior forces. The insolent
lucubrations of Viscount L Gueronnibre, in La
France, are not of a nature to allay the King's
indignation, and they have deeply incensed the
Italian people, who regard them as manifestoes in
favour of a French pretender. England, which, by
withholding aid from Piedmont, allowed France
to acquire Savoy and Nice, should not suffer the
project of Viscount IA Gueronnibre to pass unob-
served. lam not speaking at hazard. I know
positively that certain Italians who are con-
nected with Prince Murat have left Paris,
and at the same time several Frenchmen
have started from that city and from Rome upon
a Muratist mission to the Neapolitan provisos&
Rattazzi will be informed of these facts to-day by
a sealoua patriot, who is resolved that the minis-
ter shall not be able hereafter to excuse himself on
the plea that he was ignorant of what was going
on. lam willing to believe that the police have
already got scent of the matter, but there are some
who believe that the ministry do not wish to be
informed. They may be assured, however, that if
General La Marmora discovers these emissaries, he
will arrest them or send them out of the kingdom.
He is au honest man, and will never betray the
King and the country, though he has not always
been treated with the consideration due to his many
signal services to both.
