PARMA.

THE DEATH OF COLONEL ANNITL
(num ♦ CO/11111PONDriff.)
PARMA, Oct._ 5.
. . . .

A frightful act of popular vengeance has jest been
committed here. A Colonel Anviti, the most hated
of all the agents of the late dynasty, has been tan
to pieces in the streets. He was discovered on the
frontier disguised as a peasint, with letters to pot-
ions in Parma, Piacenza, and other places, a large
sum of money, and a passport signed " Antonelli."
He was arrested and placed in the hands of the
police. The news of his capture ran through the
city. Men started up from their business, and
rushed out of their houses and the rafts muttering
curses. Women and children gathered in the crowd
to see the prisoner pass. In an instant a rush was
made. He was seized out of the bands of five or
six gendarme', and his head instantly torn off. The
bleeding head was placed upon the column in the
Piazza, and a dense mar collected around it. The
frenzy subsided, but anything more violent than the
popular execration against the man cannot be con-
ceived. "He killed my brother," says one. "He
bastinadoed women." "He shot the innocent by
wholesale." "Accursed wretch," is the one word
heard. The effect is each as might ensue if Haynan
had been caught in the streets of Neill, or Nana
Sahib discovered as a spy in Calcutta.
This man was the mast conspicuous of all the
military tyrants who have executed martial law in
Parma. His word was " death," without trial or
respite. He shot and bastinadoed men, women, and
children at his pleasure. They say he had men
strangled in prison. After the revolutionary at-
tempt of June, 1854, he had absolute command, and
executed martial law by wholesale. A shot was
once fired on him in the street (they say by his own
order). He at once arrested and punished thirty
persons on his own list of suspected; imprisoned or
shot all who happened to be standing near
or in a neighbouring house. The execration
was so universal that he was obliged to
be surrounded when in the streets with a file of sol-
diers, and the Duchess had him removed fora time
to a distant post. Subsequently he was made com-
mander of Piacenza. At the outbreak of May last
the Austrians refused to receive him. He had been
wandering about on treasonable missions, and was at
lad captured with the proofs upon him.

Bach is an acoonnt of as brutal a murder as ever
was committed by popular fury, and done upon as
black a villain as ever suffered it. No commotion
ensued. Heavy columns patrolled the streets, which
remained silent and empty. The national guard and
troops are under arms.

The Piedmontese journals of the Bth, which have
come to hand this morning, contain full detail' of
the murder.

The Piedmeateee Gazette quotes the following
without comment from the Parma Gazette of
the 6th :

The people of Parma, who, by their late revolution, had
merited the esteem of all Romps for the admirable order,
calmness, and generous sentiments with which they had ever
met those even who had left nothing undone to torture,
oppress, and brutalise them, allowed themselves loot night
'to be fatally carried away by an irrepressible
pinny= of hatred, suspicion, and vengeance which
drove them involuntarily to commit an act which
the pen recoils from recording. One Anviti, whose name
excited execration in the hearts of all, a man who was the
incarnation of all that Is odious, tyrannical, and shameful in
the many persecutions of the late Bourbon government, was
yesterday seen and recognised in this city after a mysterious
absence of several months. Ilia appeeranoe at this moment,
undoubtedly connected with traitorous intrigues and a desire
to create disorder, excited • furious suspicion in the minds of
some, who vainly admonished by some citizme, gave the
signal for an act which led to sudden and deplorable *wan-
quinces. Blinded with rage, to rush to the place
where ho was confined, to break it open, to seize the
unhappy man and expose him to the insults of •
crowd maddened by paseiin, was the work of
instant. A few minutes later he was • corpse.
The rapidity with which the crime was committed
did not allow the government time to foresee, or
the public force to prevent, or the majority of the inhabitants
to oppose it. Theta now remains in to but a painful recol-
lection of the set—repentance, to, late, ales! in three who
committed it—and perhaps a pretest for our enemies to
interpret it and comment on it in • manner prejudicial to us
and to all Italy.—This morning the following proclama-
tion was trued

" Citizens I—Let night your city was saddened by en
/vest which can never be soffit:in:l6y deplored. A villele
appeared among the people whom he had cruelly offeeded.
The fever of vengeance seined upon some unhappy
men, blinded and maddened them, and made them dye
their hands in blood. lied he been the most pot-
erne of men it was for the law alone to punish hint.
While the government is taking measures to uphold the
majesty of the law, it feels that this le the moment for In.
Tokio. the co-operation of all good citizens in the mute of

oldness that freedom cannot live without respect for the
laws. Toe who desire the redemption of your country, tell
Shea that we must hope fur it by maintaining order and
tranquillity. Tell them that by avenging the insults of
tyreney through the means and yesterday, they will,
Instead, prepare the way for its return ; they will afford it an

people. Tell them that ell Italy weeps over the crime of
yesterday—that her enemies only laugh.

The Siècle has a letter from Turin which gives the
following account of the deplorable affair:

Coast de Chambord, was, as is well•kaowa, me of the most
