IA Constitution legalement existents eat cells de

De plus, l'acceptation unanime de la Cons' itution de
1848, par tons les habitants do territoire des Deux-
Smiles en degi et an dell du Phare, constatant
l'abandon de touts idea separatists, oonstiinerait nn
gage d'amitie et de fraternite intro les NapoMains et

Party, July 4,1858:

Sir,—borne journals speak of numerous petitions which
rimy now he signed in several places within thy king-
dom of the Two Bicilles for the re eitsbliditnent of the Con-
stitution of 1812. If this were the case I should regret it.
In my opinion, we et mild have entered upon a wrong path,
from which it would ha necessary speedily to withdrew.

The Conatitntion existing by law is that of 1848, not that
of 1812. Now, it is obvious that we stand upon much firmer
ground by demanding tha observance of an existing law
than by petitioning for theye-eatabliabmeat of a law already
abrogated.

Moreover, the unanimous acoeptanee of the Constitution of
1848 by all the inhabitants of the Two Sicilian, on either side
of the Phan, proving as it does the abandonment of all sepa-
ratist nations, would be a pledge of friendship and of brother-
h iod between the Neapolitans ited the Sicilians, it would
unite them in their effort■ against the common enemy, sad
it would cut short the wicked Ueda' of the 'wee tomcat,
which, faithful to the m►xim of all tirannies—Deinde et sere-
"re —is wont to foster wretched municipal antipathies f
the purpose of making Ise of the N• apnliteurs egaburt the
Sicilians, and tf the &cilium& spinet the N. apilitaes.
Lastly, it is only by haying recourse to the existing law,
namely, the Constitution of 1848, as a posit d'aprati, that
it becomes possible to use the compulsory means of refasing
the uses. _ _

I have great emiadenee in them means. In order W insure
their efficiency se fir as poseibie, I think it would
be requisite to pablish far and wide a declaration something
la this form

" The rugs of law is at hand: whosoever shall have vio-
lated it must then render a strict account of his conduct.
Lay indulgence which might be claimed for acts done with-
out greinelitation Whit, this notice it will be impossible
to extend ti any act done after such notice.
" Beery nodal, whatever hie rank, who shall bare lent
himself in any way to violations of the law petty:Arvid by
the governmitot will be required to answer therefor by his
potent and his fortune. The collectors of taxes will be re •
coined to pay back out of their own purse all sums of money
illegally collected ; and the perchaeen of articles sell to the
damage of those tax plyerg who refine to pay the tan will
be deemed to ho sod will be treated as having an unlaw-
fel sad mairifide pow siion."
If all this were done well, and by °neaten agreement, I
am persuaded thtt the government would be compelled to
yield without drawing a trigger.
Before six months you will have Potato president of the
