doing so mid they were .0 well acquaiated, he It=
mauled, with the nature of the charity. It was este
ten years ago, and during that period It bad relieved some
1,000 patients a year. The rich of course had the power of
heels( the beet advt., for the members of their families who
were afflicted with any deformity ; but what a comfort it
was to know that 1,000 of the poor had been treated and
relieved in the course of the year through the operation of
the hospital. When he was Lord Mayor of London be

be admired the docks of London, and many other trading
institutions in this city, he still more admired the libzrality

NAPLES, Nov. 14.
•
The struggle now at its height, cannot long con-
tinue. The baneful influence exercised by France
on the destinies of Italy, and Southern Italy more
especially, must be put an end to. There is no
longer any enigma. It is evident to the mourning
hearts of Italian patriots that in Napoleon 111.
they behold the one overwhelming obstacle
to their hope and aim of Italy being
one sad united. Unity cannot be formed,
still less exist, when so many elements com-
bine against it. Francis U., whilst protected and
encouraged to commit the atrocities he has been
guilty of, by sending arms, ammunition, and money
from the Papal territories, thereby keeping up the
state of fermentation and vacillation in his for-
feited kingdom and in the people's minds, is himself
but a tool in the hands of Napoleon for the realisa-
tion of his plans.
Events are hastening to show the truth of these
assertions, and the present intricacy of affairs once
cleared will end all doubt as to the disinterested
alliance France so strenuously proposes for the
furtherance of Italian liberty. Severe must be the
comments upon such a policy,
The projected departure of the ex-King of Naples
from Rome to Nice is a fact which tends to prove
the underhand mancenvring of Napoleon.
The following letters found on one of the brigand
chiefs are not void of interest. The MIMSs are
withheld, but can easily be supplied :

The police have arrested many brigands in
Naples itself, and papers of consequence have been
found which have discovered the whole thread of
their plans, especially sines the important revela-
tions made by Pieiocoo, arrested on the 12th inst.,
who revealed the bidden retreat of many indivi-
duals eminently compromised, and particularly that
of a Sicil;an, who had on him a letter in cipher
from Rome.
