questions of the day, at least on some of those im-
portant social subjects in which the interests of the
greatbody of the people are so deeply involved ? Is
there no public institution in our town, the object of
which is the improvement of the moral and social
condition of the people, that could have its cause
eloquently advocated by these distinguished
statesmen, at such a time ? Are our ragged
schools,,for instance, so over-prosperous that they
might not be benefited extensively by taking
advantage of this opportunity of obtaining the
earnest advocacy of so many real friends of the
people ?
We throw out these hints for, the consideration
of those who, from their position in society, or
their connexion with such institutions as we have
referred to, may be the most likely to give effect
to them. We have no wish to dictate what
course should be pursued. We simply suggest.
But, certainly, it would be a great pity
to lose- so admirable an opportunity, not
only of showing the people that our Con-
servative statesmen are really the friends
of their best interests, but of advancing those
interests through the support thg might be
enabled to give them, on an occasion of public
interest and importance which may not occur
again for perhaps many years.

FRIGHTFUL OUTRAGE AT PARMA.
PARIS, Friday

The following telegram, dated October 6, has
been received here from Parma :—" A horrible
occurrence took place yesterday evening. The:
Count Anviti, formerly colonel of the troops in
Parma, and held in detestation by the people, was
passing through Parma, on his way to Pleisance,
and being recognised at the railway station, was
arrested. j The populace, informed of his arrest,
broke open the barracks of the gendarmerie where
he was confined, and, having seized the unfortunate
Count, he was dragged through the city, receiving
blows on all sides. His hands were fastened
together with a cord, and he • was then
pulled through the streets, until he arrived
opposite a Café that he was in the habit
of frequenting, where, whilst he was still alive,
his head was cut off, and then carried in triumph
to the grand place, where it was placed on the top
of a column. The cries of joy of the people
increased the terror of the situation. The National
Guard and the troops were called out, but arrived

when all was over

nine o'clock in the even-
ing quiet again reigned in the city."

PARMA, October 6

sioned by the preparations for the expedition. It shall
