TURIN, MAT 22.

The King arrived in this city at 3 p.m. His
Majesty was received by the municipality and the
authorities of the national guard, and warmly

MILAN, MAT 22.
The Pungolo publishes the following letter from
General Garibaldi :—" Some persons have wrongly
interpreted my protest published in the Diritto.
As an Italian soldier, I could never have enter-
tained the intention of insulting the Italian army,
the glory and the hope of the nation. I desired
to say that soldiers ought to combat the enemies
of the country, not to massacre and wound un-
armed citizens. If the commandant of Brescia
had been free to act according to the dictates of
his heart, we should not now have to lament vic-
tims among the people. The post of generals is
upon the frontier, and the field of battle ; nowhere
else."

General Tun has returned to Naples and left
for Tremors.

BLXONY.

DEISDIN, MAY 72.
The Saxon Diet was opened to-day by Minister
Baron von Benst, who in his opening speech said :
—"The final decision upon the treaty of commerce
with France has been reserved for the Diet. The
government has given a provisional assent to the
treaty, from the conviction that the industry of
Saxony may boldly enter upon the course
thereby marked out. The government of
Saxony will never forget its duties towards the
entire German fatherland, considerations based on
separate interests having been banished from its
councils. A resolute acceptance of the alteration in
the tariff is not only the best guarantee for the con-
tinued existence of the Zollverein, but it would
also present a basis upon which the development of
the existing commercial treaty with Austria, and
the adhesion of that power to the Zollverein, must
be successfully pursued."

EITUITGARD, KAT 21.

The catholic party in the Chamber of Deputies
has proposed that the government should be called
upon to nee its bast endeavours to obtain a revision
of the Federal constitution, in order to secure Ger-
many against foreign aggression, and to bring about
a greater concentration of power at home.
It further proposed that there should be a cen-
tral national representation, and that the govern-
ment should direct its attention to the establish-
ment of a union comprising all parts of Germany,
and should oppose all tendencies aiming at a more
limited confederation, the result of which would be
the disunion of Germany.

DRAM or • Hno.—A oorrespondent writes to
:—"lt may not be uninteresting to your numerous
readers to hear some news of the last of the heroes con-
nected with the mutiny at the Nor.. In 1797, when Cap-
tain William Linder had the Thetis, and was returning to
England, having on board the Prussian subsidy, amounting
to nearly half a million sterling, he was taken prisoner by
the mutineer William Parker, and detained with his vesLel
and valuable cargo for • week at the Nore. The rebel,
little suspecting the prise he had within his grasp, credited
the amertion that the aid would shortly arrive, and that he
was to be the medium of its transmission to this country.
By this rum, and a promise of assistance by which Parker
decided that he would take the grand fleet into Brest, he
obtained a peas (I believe the only one given) from William
Parker, sad arrived safely with his immerse treasure at the
Tower, where be immediately landed his golden cargo, and
forthwith proceeded to the Admiralty, also giving informa-
tion to the minister, Mr. Pitt, of his fortunate recaps.
Had it been otherwise the tide of BOOMS would certainly
have turned against Old England at that time. Mr. Pita
generously offered him a commission, but Captain Linder
having a fine vessel of his own, and • noble and indepen-
dent spirit, which he Maimed to the Wt, respectfully de-
clined, nor could be be induced in after piers to solicit for
any recompense or popularise. On Wednesday morning
lest, at the age of 87, he died, having served his country
honourably, and won the respect of all associated with
Um."
