NAPLES.

(raom OVE OWN

NAPLES, Nov. 2.
Nearly twenty of the British Legion are now in
the hospital of St. Sebastiani, four having been
brought in recently wounded. There is no case,
however, which awakens any anxiety. I believe the
greatest danger which they incur is from the inju-
dicious kindness of their countrymen, who, in de-
fiance of all orders, even though posted on the
walls, persist in bringing in little luxuries, with-
out thinking it necessary to consult the medical
teen at all about it. Thus I yesterday found on a
chair by the bedside of a fever patient a bottle of
strong beef tea, the wing and leg of a fowl, not to
speak of other niceties, which the poor fellow (add
not eat ; and a few days before by the bedside of
another fever patient I found a bottle of wine—
item, a bottle of beef tea—item, marmalade, &c.
"And our patients get worse," said the me-
dical man—" all because these dear loving
souls, out of the kindness of their hearts, will do
something for their countrymen far away from

But

wine, beeitea, chickens, marmalade, and all the
other et celperas, vma a triad of what are commonly
called the fair sex, who, in their way, too, were show-
ing kindness by talking to every individual patient, at
the rate of what is vulgarly called nineteen to the
dozen, the burthen of their conversation being,
" Don't go back again—leave the horrid service—

don't fight any more." Had Garibaldi heard them
he would have tried them by court-martial.
I am sorry to think that the evils of the hospital
system are irremediable at present, but such as
these institutions are, "We should have been in
ecatacies in the Crimea," said some British officers
to me, "if we could have had anything of the
kind." Intermixed with much benevolence, there
is too large a proportion of jealousy and back-
biting here, and the reputations of public
persona are assailed with "an dite," and
torn to pieces like old rags. I allude to the evil
because it interferes with hearty co-operation for
great public objects. Of public persons, I may say
that the brave Colonel Bixio is is great danger
from concussion of the brain occasioned by a fall
from his horse. Dunne received his brevet of
general on Thursday last. Mr. Elliott, who ex-
pected to have left at the end of this week, waits
for further instructions, perhaps because the entry
of Victor Emmanuel into Naples appears to be so
uncertain. Invitations, however, have been sent
by the Syndic to a select number of persons for
whom seats are reserved in the public places.

The Agamemnon left on Thursday morning very
early for Palermo, but why, or if she returns, I
cannot make out. Desertion had become almost
an epidemic on board.
I quoted a letter in the beginning of mine which
alluded to the state of Calabria. I believe lam
quite correct in saying that anarchy mingled with
much discontent is the normal state of the country,
and that unless a wise and settled government
under some one be established immediately there is
great cause for apprehension. Of course Victor
Emmanuel is the man to do all this. Troops were
sent off to the provinces on Thursday last to put
down reactionary movements, which are now
the more dangerous that the people have been
armed. I need not say that the priests are the
prime promoters of disorder. Iu the city, and in
Castellamare we have had several assassinations, or
attempts at assassination, though I do not wish
that the conclusions from these facts should be
made of too large a character.

Nov. 3.

The Official Journal of this morning publishes
the permanent arrangements which have been made
for the direction of the public instruction of the
country. The Royal University, and all the insti-
tutions dependent on it, academies, lyceums, col-
leges, astronomical observatory, special schools,
and private institutions and schools, are entrusted
to a oouncil-general of public instruction, to be
presided over by the minister.
There is still a great deal of excitement in the
city, and we hear occasionally a dropping fire of
rockets and pistols, but the steam will not get up
before evening.
