General Cialdini has imagined a new method for
putting a stop to the constant applications for
places under government. By a decree of the 24th
ult. he has ordered that all the names of the ap-
plicants for placiesdepending from the Department of
the Interior and Police shall be published, together
with the names of those who recommend them ;
and this system has at once been inaugurated by
the publication of the names of 23 individuals,
who had made their application the day before ;
two of them asking for any kind of place whatever.
The Manitnento of Genoa announces that M. de
Mdrode bad an interview with General Boxes on
the 24th July at Civita Vecchia, in consequence of
which the General immediately set out for Rome.
Although the telegraph from Rome duly contra-
dicted
the arrest of Cardinal Sforza' Archbishop of
Naples, it appears by all the latest letters that the
arrest really took place, and, moreover, that the
cardinal is still in cunt:Ay. The following details
are given by a Turin letter, dated July 29, in the
Presse :

-
All the mystery relative to the arrest of the Cardinal
Archbishop of Naples is not even yet cleared up. ()sin-
ewy mortals only learned the news by a despatch from
Paris, where the rumour circulated. I knew of it on Finlay
evening, and it was only the neat day after confirmation
that I ventured to send it to you. This is what occurred:—
General Cialdiui Rent word by telegraph that he had put
Cardinal Stores under arrest, believing that be had suffi-
cient evidence to .bow that he was an accomplice in the
Bourbon conspiracy recently discovered. " Shall I main.
taM the arrest?" asked Cald ul, " Wait," was the
answer. Subsequently, the conned of ministers deter-
' mined that the archbishop should be retained in custody.
It is not easy to get at the bottom of mysteries of
this kind. Yesterday evening, for instance, M. Minghetti
assured one of my friondi that the news of the arrest was
not true ; but another minister, less diplomatic in regard
to facts, admitted that it was ; and this morning an am-
baseador assures me that he has transmitted the intelligence
to his government by telegraph. This act of vigour pro-
duces the best effect here, and the rather because, for the
last month, it has been whispered that in case of the
Pope's death Cardinal! Stoma would be his successor. Of
course you know what is meant by the. arrest of an arch-
bishop in Italy : be is not dragged to prison, but remains in
his palace, with his little court and his cook, and is merely
guarded so as not to be lost sight of. When he wishes to
take an airing he is escorted by a priest in the confidence of
the government, and if he travels a convent on has line of
march is assigned for his residence.
A Turin letter of the same date, in the Opinion
Nationale, says :
The Cerdinal Archbiahopof Naples was arrested on Friday
night. This news, now news no longer, however, has not
been published in any journal, and people are much pursled
