ingly. Over the images of the King and Queen in
some public places, might have been seen the image
of the Madonna, emblematic of the protection which
she is supposed to extend over the royalty of Naples;
bat warmth and enthusiasm there are none. The official
journal will, of course, speak of the exultation of a
loving people; but It is not so—nothing can be so
cold or undemonstrative. It is a remarkable historic
fact that this is the first attempt which has ever
been made on the life of a sovereign of this country
by a subject. Amidst changes of dynasties and changes
of masters—continual revolutions and disturb-
ances the sovereign has always been re.
spected by hie subjects—movements have taken
Otos to the cry of " Viva it Re !" A lament-
able exception is to be found in the person
of Ferdinand 11. Onos in his reign, in 1833, a eon-
spirsey was formed against the King's life, but it was

discovered. The authors of it were two men called
Rossatol and Lanciolotto. On the evening after the
discovery the King went to the Intro Del Fiorentini,
and great were the acclamations with which he was
received. His Majesty was young then—his
people looked forwards hopefully to the future, but
that future has now been added to the past ; bitter
disappointment has succeeded to bright hope, and
nothing but the decencies of cold propriety have been
observable on the present occasion. Later informa-
tion enables me to add that the Syndic and two
other persons in the town in which Miteno resided
have been arrested. According to strict law, whilst
evidence, though inconclusive, was treasured up
against him, he should not have been permitted to
leave; but by some of those facilities so well under-
stood in this country, he appears to have procured
his pass. and the sequel we have seen.
ln Sicily the movement appears to be" suffocated"
for the present, though no rational man would repre.
sent the people as being tranquil or contented. From a
man of gross adulation and absurd exaggeration in
the official journal, I extract the following
facts: Bentivegna—who attempted to agitate
Me uainso,Villafrate, Ciminna, andVendniglia, burn-
ing the archives and emptying the public purse—has
been taken prisoner. Some hundreds of the Guardia
Urbana, under Cay. Parisi, were directed against
him. At Cefalo, also, the movement has been pat
down, troops having been dispatched under Lieut.-
Colonels Marra and Ohio, as also some compagnies
crannies from Palermo. Many surrendered, but
many were taken prisoners with Bentivegns. Others
are still in the mountains. Private dispatches
say that Bentivegna was arrested in the commune of
Carbone without making any resistance, and that he
was brought into Palermo and placed in the prison on
the 6th Dee. The investigation into the affair was still
going on. Thus proteets,discontent, conspiracies, open
revolution, and attempted assassination of the King,
are the normal features in the history of this unhappy
country. There is too much reason to fear that the
system of repression will still be persevered in, spite
of the inevitable and tremendous consequences which
must sooner or later if remedial measures are
not adopted. The Meru& of last night publishes
an address from the cardinal to the clergy of Naples,
directing a tridno to be observed in all the churches.
It publishes also a royal rescript, with the regulations
for the youth of Nelda, and which you must have
rewind three days since.
