ITALY.

SARDINIA.
mum on °ern 001111111111120XD11311'.)
TURIN, Dec. 29.
Count Cavour is gradually beooming more assured ;
he dose not conceal from himself the immense respon-
sibility he is incurring, but believes he can predict
that the Congress will do the Italian cause no great
good and no great harm. " Time is working for its
advantage," he said no later than yesterday to a
friend of his ; " two things have become impossible
already—the restoration of the Dukes and the reco-
very of the Romagna. by the Pope. If Central Italy
remains firm and tranquil in its proposition of an-
nexation it will be impossible in other quartos to
prevent it for any length of time." " But what
proposals will be made to the Congress P.' asked his
friend with very natural curiosity ' • and the count,
with that subtle but good-bumoured smile which
lightens up his countenance, replied—" You
ask me what nobody yet knows, neither
the governments nor their plenipotentiaries ;
will a congress have met with elements so
various and contlicung, or with each an absence of
preliminary convert. It is only we Italians who know
in fact what it is we really do want. And, there-
fore, amidst all the difficulties of my task, I esteem
myself at all events fortunate in this, that my pro
papal will be most simple and immutable. Let the
wish of the peoples be gratified. Should thereupon
the Congress require a fresh demonstration by the
inhabitants of Central Italy of their firm and general
will, I neither can nor ought to oppose it. Be-
sides, I have the complete conviction that they would
respond to such an invitation by renewing the vote
they have already given more than once. Any
other proposal will be contested by me." "Some
one," observed the friend, " may propose the sale of
Venetia; what would be your conduct then P" "Ah,
then," replied the illustrious statesman, "my resolu-
tion would have to be modified. If the Austrians
quit Italy, her destiny will be arranged in a more
pleasant way by diplomacy; but I hold any cession of
the sort illusory, nor can I believe that Austria will
ever listen to good ono, or be induced to give up
Venetia by any arguments save those of cannon. Be
that as it may, one proposal will assuredly be laid
before the Congress, and that is, the creation of a
central kingdom detached from Piedmont, to consist
of Tommy, Modena, and the Itemagnas. France
will be tlie chief usooter and supporter of this pro-
ject, and I believe England will not oppose it. It
may so happen that I shall be left alone inlay op
'Rion to it. but then I shall be backed by the Italbm
peoples, whose desire for the annexatica will be

arm. Before such a proposal can be carried,
they Will have at lest to break through the
'kind* of non-intimation." The conversation
gae ssittinned mach Leger, and other particulars
were touched upon. I have made no scruple in re-
kiln a part of it, because Cavour rightly says, his
diplomacy lives in a crystal palace, where all may
' see what he does. And, truly, the thoughts I have
been retailing are those of all Italyy. I have men-
tioned the Count's opinion that England will not
oppose the project of forming a central kingdom de-
tached from Piedmont, but I myself think, on pretty
good authority, that the English cabinet has been
obliged to make some concessions relative to this
proposition, and but for which the Congress would
either not meet at all, or Great Britain would take
no part in it.
In the meantime Cavour is receiving deputations
from almost every Italian province. To the Vene-
tians he gives the advice that they must wait, for
that he cannot plead their cause in particular before
the Congress, where he has one thing alone to de-
mand—one thing alone to follow up assiduously—the
annexation of Central Italy. In the same way he
answers and advises those subjects of the Pope who
are not Romsgnols.
General Garibaldi arrived here last night. At
Milan, when it was known that be had arrived in
that city, although it was dark and snowing bard, a
great crowd of people assembled with torches to greet
him. It is a singular thing how he still maintains
the prestige of his name, notwithstanding a few acts
that were not duly weighed beforehand. That
which renders him, however, still so dear to the
whole nation is the knowledge of the people, derived
from a thousand proofs, that he is an honest man,
ever disinterested and noble at heart in all that he
takes.

♦ FRAUDULENT Recgurr.

An Irish tailor was charged under the name of Thee.
Beekley with fraudulently obtaining Is. from Charles
Cornelius, recruiting bombenlier, who deposed that
on the previous afternoon the prisoner presented
himself at the Woo!peck, Minories, and expressed
a wish to enlist, upon which witness asked him
the usualstions, in reply to which the prisoner said he
was a single man, that his age was 28 years, and that he
lived at 1 , Old Compton-street, Soho ; upon which witness
gave him Is., and told him to come again at 5 o'clock and
see the sergeant.
da7eXt Saunders said the prisoner came to him on Fri.
anrnoon, at five o'clock, and directly he (the sergeant)
maw him he felt quite convinced that he never intended to
enter the army, so, by way of precaution, he again
put the questions, to which the prisoner gave the same
answers as to the previous witness. Thereupon he
(the sergeant) at once sent to Old Compton-street, and
ascertained that there was no such number as 134 there.
When the messenger returned he told the prisoner, who con.
famed that he had given a false nddreas, and admittedj fur.
ther that he was thirty-six years old, and a married man,
both of which admissions disqualified him for the army,
and, therefore, witness immediately gave him into custody.
The Lord Mayor—What do you say, prisoner? Do you
wish to enter the army ?
Prisoner--Y!!, I do. _ .

The Lord Ilityor—Well, why can't you take him.
sergeant ?
Sergeant—lt's against the regulations, since he said be
was married, and that he wanted to enlist to get away
from his wife.

Mr. Goodman (chief clerk)—lf you prosecute, he must go
to the Old Bailey, and as he was nut attested, there may be
some difficulty in the caae.
Sergeant—lt does not matter. We intend to put a stop to
this sort of thing, for my party is always being robbed in
this way, especially by tailors and shoemakers.
The prisoner, whose wife was fainting in court, was then

ROYAL AORICIILTIJRAL SoCIIITY.—The council of
this society met on Tuesday for the purpose of deciding
where the 1861 show should be held. The Mayor of Leeds
and an influential deputation from that and other West
Riding boroughs represented the interests of the capital of
the woollen trade. After the various deputations had
addressed the council, it was decided by a very large majo-
rity that the country meeting of 1861 should be held in
Leeds, the claims of which had been so prominently laid
before them by the deputation.

EQUITY COUR.T.
(Baton th► Lords Justices of Appeal.)
LICTLAND r. ILL!iGWORTH.
Thu wig an appall from the refusal by Vice-Ch►noellor
Sir John Stuart of ► motion by • purchaser of estates sold
under the decree of the court under the following circular-
dances :

The property in question, which was in • manufacturing
town endemism& of a freishokl house and remisaa,withsteam
engine, boiler, and steam pipes, was sold by public auction.
In the particulars of ale the prreises were described as
being " well supplied with water." After 111111 Sill the pur-
chaser discovered for the fist time that the only
effective supply was from the waterworks of the
town, from which • supply of water, adequate
to work the steam-engine, would involve • charge
of 2:3/. per annum. The motion before the Vice-Chancellor
was made by the paroluser, no the grimed that the ex-
pert= "well mapplial with water" would, to as inhabitant
of • sraufacetring town, imply a gratuity= supply of
water, either foes • mane within the premises or con-
, =weed thither tram an iedepend..t seeres.
Upon the argument of the appeal en Wednesday last,
Elmeley, Q,C., sad Mr. Leigh Pesaburtee appeared
for the plaintiff ; and Yr. Malin, Q.C., and Mr. G. L. Rus-
sell for the defendant.
Their lordships reversed the Vice.Chancelker'e decision,
holding that the condition of sale was not sufficiently ex-
plicit, and that the prima facie interpretatioe of it was that
the premises were supplied with water from natural sources.

demanded of the jury to suspend their judgment.
Accordingly this morning at theclose of the defendants'
ewe, an immense body of fresh evidence was adduced on
behalf of the plaintiff.
The Chief Justice charged the jury, bagging them to
put out of their minds what had occurred on the previous
and which was before they had heard the main
body of plaintiff's evidence. His lordship then went
carefully throujich the evidence on both sides, taking not an

for ever ►uppoesed and the whole Mountain put

etherwese we shall always be liable to a repetition
of the wholesale murders by which the DrWlea
h:.v.• of late turned Lebanon into a slaughter-house.
If one iota of power is left to the Druses of Syria,
if every sheik who directly or otherwise took part
in the late outrage against the Christians is not
banished from the land, it would be better—as will
no doubt be the case, that every European or other
Christian in the province should leave the country.
Neither the English trade to Syria, nor that of an 7
ether country, can ever be on a safe footing, until
there is for Mount Lebanon one strong-handed
governor, and he ought to be a Christian.
I open my letter to say that the slaughter at
Zahleli has been fearful; amongst others, several
French Jesuits murdered by the Druses. The
whole of Syria is now open to these hordes of
ruffians. Great fear is expressed for Damascus. At
Dheir-el-Kaniar the Druses are disarming the
Christians, and will no doubt in due time massacre
the whole population of the place. Beyrout is like
a deserted town, the harbour crowded with men-of-
war, signals making, salutes firing, and everything
as in a state of war.

On the Lt instant the new Neapolitan minis

presented the following whines to the King :

Sire,—By the sovereign and memorable act of the 2611 s of
June your Majesty announced two great ideas to your people,
viz., that of putting the constitutional rlyiwie in force in
these eaten, and that of entering into an undentanding with
King Victor Emmanuel for the greater advantage of the two
Italian crowns. Thome sublime words, which mark for your
Majesty and for your reign the commencement of a great
and glorious OM have resounded throughout Europa, and
filled with joy the hearts of your subjects, who expect
from the Metes and loyalty of their King the accomplish.
meat of the grand work. Your Majesty has deigned at the
sante time to call the undersigned to power as your
council of ministers, in whom confidence is to be placed
for the mama execution of the royal will, and who have
been entrusted with the preparation of the statute for this
portion of the kingdom. But your council, sire, in de-
voting itself to the fulfilment of this royal order, has con-
sidered that a constitutional statute already exists in the
public law of the kingdom—namely, that which was oc•
troyed by your august father, the late Ferdinand IL If
this statute was atter some time suspended on account 01
some deplorable events which it is not apropos to retell
to-day, it has nevertheless never been abrogated, as has
been the ease in some European states. It seems to the
undersigned that it is at once a simple and logical idea that
this statute should be restored in full vigour. In doing this
your Majesty will find agreeable and facile the work of
which you desire your states to receive the benefit. The
foreigner will admire the wisdom of the sovereign in this
noble decision, andyour peoplee,withuut haring to wait far
new document,will learn with the greatest interest what are
their franchises, and will receive with gratitude this new
pledge of the King for the inauguration of tke comae'.

(Here follow the signatures of the ministers.)

On the same day the King issued decrees in
consonance with the above advice of his ministers;
convoking the assemblage of the national parlia-
ment of Naples for the 19th of September, restor-
ing also the laws of 1848 and 1849 with regard to

bad taken • correct note of the evidence of two wilmemes,
that he ordered them to retire from the court, sad in their

on one side, that the note wan correct.

PUNISHMENT BY THE LASH.

It is not to be supposed that the fortuitous ma-
jority obtained yesterday by Lord Benham upon the pro-
priety of filming the brutes who, taking advantage of their
superiority in physical strength, wound and beat their
wretched wives, will ever pass into Isw. Still the fact that
such a majority has been obtained is a public event which
we are bound to notice. Here is one of the peen in which
imam and feeling are absolutely at variance. Of course,
every man would be but too willing to tie the wretches who
commit these assaults upon helpless women up to the
triangle and lay on with a hearty good will, if he could not
find a public officer to discharge the duty on behalf of the
nation. So tar there is no doubt about the case. These
men ought to be flogged, and soundly, and we 'Weld all
be too delighted to lend a hand in furthering so good a
work. Here, however, is the difficulty :—Under the
existing state of the law. and now that the wife-beaters
are only exposed to the penalty of imprisonment,
the utmost difficulty is found in inducing women
to come forward as accusers True, it may he
said women reason thus :—." If we go before the
magistrate and give such testimony as causes the bread-
winner to be locked up in gaol for two, three, or more
months, what is to become of us and our little ones?'
Prectically, women do not mason in that way, and their
reluctance to proceed against the men who have ill-treatol
them ariam from a totally different series of causes. What
would be the case if tbo penalty elfogging were substituted
for the penalty of imprisonment? We know not bow this
point may strike different minds, but to us it seems that,
even as far as the wife's chancre of securing support fur
herself and her children are concerned, she would
not base mach aid to expect from the aurae
1 brute who came bleeding from the turnkey's hands,
and still more savage than before. This, however, is not
the real point. if you attach the penalty of corporal
chastisement to the crime of wife beating, there is not one
woman in five hundred who will conic forward to bear
witness against her husband, simply upon the ground that,
brutally as be may have behaved to her, she does not, on
the whole, choose that the brute shall be flogged. The re-
pression under the existing state of the law is sot worth
much ; but still, of the little hope of re pressMg this crime
by positive law there would be a total end if Lord Rays-
ham's injudicious proposition for flogging the husbands were
to par into law.—Times.
