'CAL( AN Costsnitscies.— The Opinion! of Turin has the following
from Pavia :—On the 14th, the Chevalier Hemodei, of this town, was
on his way to an estate of hi e situated in the province of Veghera
to'
the Ac ctrl an commissar. On arriving at the frontier and presenting his peespert
7. the latter informed him that he had
orders to se ech both his c erriage and person; whereupon M. Homodei
sprang from his carriage, knocked down a soldier who attempted to
stop him, and ran acre -s the fluids. tearing a later which he tied
about nine. He war overtaken, and several fraements of the letter
were picked up by the police officers. On being glatiOned, he
declared that the letter contained nothing of a political native, bat
ouly private matters which he did not wish to b 3 known. As It was
found impossible to reconnect the fragments o as to derive :ley precise
lucormation from them, the commissary did not arrest M. Honeolei,
bat exacted his word of honour that ha would present le insult' on the
following day to the imperial delegate of Facets, to whim 'he fragments
of the letter would be immediately forwarded. M. flomodei fallnled
his enemies, and the delegate told him that before on:needing against
him, he would apply to Maim for instructions. M. Remodel, however,
this time thought it best not to wait for the answer, but to make his
escape as bast he mi Tint; and it is believed that he has taken reftese in
Switzerland. His house has been searched, and many books and
letters seized by the pollee. but it is slid they are unimportant.
Mae. STOWS IN ITALY—An AnlorlCan writer describes the mil-
fortunes of Mrs. Harriet Beecher Stowe while traveler_ in alle—
le iw the steamer in which she went trees M stashes to Civita Voccele
was disabled—how, between the last-named place and Rome, the
carriage broke down—how she did not arrive with hsr party until
5 o'clock in the morning—how they found it lemons fele to get into
the lodgings which she had engaged, and how the driver lett them
with their baggage in the Piazze de Spagna. He says:—" Here they
were discovered in the gray dawn, by a party or Americans who
chanced to pass that way. Mrs. Stowe formed the centre of the
group. She was elevated several fee* above the surrounding figures,
roe:ening on the top of a large brown leather truck, with a dilapidated
hand lo x under her head, having herfeet wrapped in a gentlemante ,nuff-
colonred cloak. Her attito de and poceition were striking. and perhaps
he most possible for catching the first glimpse of the comet, or
making astronomical observations. Her sister. Mrs. Perkins, re-
pos-d beside and below her. Two gentlemen with crooked hickory
sticks, au -ode i the divinities against the attacks of dogs and the irn-
portanities of tho Lazzeronl. Ono of the discoverers encouraged the
curs, while another addressed the beggars. Ile assured thorn they
might look upon the arrive' of the distinguished individual on the
trunk as a Godsend, the Signorina being famed for generosity to
every petitioner of every colour. 'This information lead the instant
effect of increasing ten-fold the number and importiouity of the
beggars. and consequently the noise and excitement of the doze."
i its eloavoete.—Two or three things one may remark all dis-
cussions with Mormons: they speak of the subject of " phmality "
berore their wives without any restraint, argue the physical and
mental inferiority of the female sex, and even teach on eubjeete
too delicate, or too indelicate, to be heard without calling up a blush
on the cheeks of any modest woman elsewhere. Setneemes the
women woalri become very brtuque with their husbands, sad half-
savage with myself, the innocent /Anse of the argument ; but a blush
seldom rises in Utah : Mormons nther think it a merit to speak in
vary plain leoguago of those things we know "naturally," and rut:
freedom from affection into coarseness. Whether or not lids springs
necessarily from polygamy (se I hardly suppose), it is a sign, and
must be a cause, of moral deterioration ; while different sleeping
apartments are required for the different wives, and usually for the
children of different sex as they grow up, language is used before
both that almost annuls the nullity of the one and the decency of
both crnstonat.—Mr. Chardese.
