REVOLUTION AT NAPLES.

We present out readers with the I...flowing details
Imin a pamphlet just published. entitled. "Sketch
of the late lieralation et Naples, by ON Eye-
ocitmess."

" On Sunday, July 2, 1920, the Duke of Calabria, eldest
son Iti his Majesty king Ferdinand the First, retained 141
Naples from Sicily, where be had exerrited the (auctions of
Viceroy ever Ann. his Royal Father's restoration to the
Throne, in the year 1215.
" The retorts of this Prince had been long anticipated, as,
though personally beloved and respected in Sicily, it wut
understood that his own wishes had long solicited a removal;
priocipolly on the plea of ill health, though several tither
reasons were assigned for it.

M Similar idle and contradictory reports hail been spread
to account fur the delays be had experienced, which, bow.
ever, merely arose (in all probability) from the necessity of
wailing for the arrival at Palermo of General Naselhi, who
had been appointed to summed him iu the office, though not
with the title, of Viceroy.
s• The line of telegraphs whirl, extends along, the coasts
of Naples mad Sicily, and affords the means of conimunice.
Ilan between the two capitals within tlvespace or eight boors,
had some days before anIIOIIIICPII the Prince's departure from
Palermo; and, as it was understood that be wished to be
present at the celebratiou of his brother's birth-day, the
Prince of Salerno, it required nu great effort of calculation
to anticipate the very boar of his arrival. Thi■ cinema.
masc.:, which might have passed unnoticed at any other
time, gave rise to several observations from those who are
unwilling to admit the interference of chance in any poli-
tical transaction.

" The King, who had ken some distance out al sea to
meet bia children, expressed in his rountetinnee and conver-
sation the joy he felt at sreinz them, and that parental
affection which baa always appeared as a instinctive trait in
his character; boot it was observed, that although be ap-
peared in remarkable good spirits, some of his Ministers
were far from participating in this feeling; that ass expres-
sion of gravity, amounting to gloom, wan visible io their
countenances; that they were abstracted in their manner,
and frequently engaged in secret cunversatiom with each
other.

" The circle was of abort duration ; those who composed
it repaired, al customary. to the theatre after it. termina-
tion ; and here it was that reports of a vague, but nut
alarming nature, began to circulate, and prepare the public
mind for the extraordinary events which were to take
place within the short spare of a few succeeding days.
" It was said that a portion of military belonging to two
different corps (cavalry mid infantry) quartotid at Nola,
