TO Till ITIFFOR OF TSB 11IP1E84.

Fitri,—To you, who have given so many proofs of
attachment to the cause of Italy, I address myself, to
request the insertion in your excellent journal of the
accompanying appeal to the Italians resident in
England.
Accept, for what you have done and continue to do
in support of the Italian cause, my grateful acknow-
ledgments and those of my compatriota.—l am, &c.,
G. F. AVEBANI.

Italians ! A subscription has been opened
for the purchase of a million muskets as an
offering to Central Italy. General Garibaldi
hoe headed the subscription with 6,000 franc*.
One of the lists for the collection of subscrip-
tions has been confided to me, as will be seen
below, and I have deposited it with Messrs. L.
beren► and Co., 147, adenhall-street, who have
undertaken to receive the contributions.

All Italians should subscribe, whether rich or
poor. Those who have neither gold nor silver can at
least give their pence. Not one Italian resident in
England should fail to respond to this appeal.
London, Oct. 6.

List No. 21, confided to the Baron Aves►ni,
3, Vernon-place, Bloomsbury-square, London.
" National subscription, initiated by General Gari-
baldi for the parches, of a million muskets u an
offering to Central Italy.
"According to the ambiguous language of nutner-
ems and conflicting official journals, the fate of Cen-
tral Italy is still undecided. Hope and fear, confi-
dence and suspicion alternate with incredible
rapidity, and daily augment the uncertainty that
prevails in weak and timid minds. But for those
who feel that they are true Italians, who regard only
the welfare of our most sacred land, the fate of Cen-
tral Italy has long been decided.
" It is her will to be free, to unite with the brave
Savoyard chief in fighting the battleof independence,
and hasten the day when liberty shall cover the
whole of this peninsula, hitherto enslaved under a
thousand tyrannise. Central Italy has entered upon
a path in which it is impossible to pause or to return.
She must proceed with undaunted energy straight to
the goal, without being diverted for a moment from
the cue object. If any uncertainty remains, it
is with respect to the means best adapted to accom-
plish the end in view. Shall we obtain without a
straggle, without bloodshed, the fulfilment of our
wishes, or must we conquer with the sword the
accursed obstacles raised by tyranny? No one is
yet able to say ; but as the latter alternative is
possible, it ought to find us prepared and resolute to
sustain with arms our firm resolve. Universal
sympathy is with us—the will of the people is
unanimous and plain ; there can be no excuse ; if we
fall, we fall by our own fault. Every son of Italy
should become a soldier, ready to give his life for
his country. Italy must arm her children, and
collect beneath her banner her valiant but scattered
bands. Whatever be the issue, an appeal to arms
cannot render our condition worse. Feeble and
antiquated diplomacy, though it may bewilder the
weak and inexpert, must give way before the bold
front of a patriotic and devoted army. " Arm, then,
arm r is the cry of all who have Italian independ-
ence at heart. To provide weapons for the Central
Italians, General Garibaldi, the hope and strength
of Italy, has this day set on foot a national subacrip-
tiou, and headed it with 3,000?., for the purchase of
a ;million muskets. Numbers were ready to
imitate the generous example, and many
more will follow in their steps. Italians!
You, who cannot be yourselves soldiers, do all that
lies in your power to make others so. Let those who
cannot give their blood give gold. The Cartha-
ginian women cut off their hair to furnish ropes for
the machines of war in defence of the walls of their
city. Italians must be liberal of what they possess,
in order to secure better days for their suffering
land. History will one day, in a glorious page,
record these sacrificer; and the tree of liberty,
watered by so many teen, and so much blood, will
extend a grateful shade over our native laud, and
render the future sweet to us and to our children.

" The list. when filled up, must be sent as soon as
possible to Mr. Ferrigni, secretary to General Gari-
baldi, at the general quarters of the 11th Italian
Division."
