Furioso was a fine burlesque travestied or a travestie
burlesqued; and never was such a living army seen
as that of the invincible conqueror and illustrious
general' The grand state chamber in the royal palace

was really superb in its gorgeous though miniature
furniture and decorations. Great attention is paid
throughout to the mise en scene. The pantomimic
ballet which closed the performances showed some
wondrous dancing, and the performance of an extra-
ordinary leaper and posturer, named Saltarello,
especially his manoeuvres with a hoop, were most
marvellous. The clown lacks a little of the comicality
which is so much relished in England ; being rather
the Pierrot of the Italian than the clown of the An-
glican pantomime. Harlequin and Columbine did
some graceful dancing; and the performances, which
commenced at eight, closed at ten minutes after ten
o'clock—a desirable time, especially when young
people are concerned. The Marionettes promise to
become as fashionable here as they were in London,
where the aristocracy and beau monde, from
duchesses downwards, nightly thronged this little
theatre of ligneous mimes.—Manchester Guardian.

f de-

Paris and the adjacent forts, am9unting to nearly
12,000
men. The crime of the prisoner, a private in
the Sappers and Miners, was the murder of his cor-
pore!. Precisely at eight o'clock the prisoner arrived
at the place of execution in a cellular van, escorted by
a body of gendarmes, and accompanied by the
almoner of the Military Prison. The vehicle drove
up to the centre of the Polygon—an enclosed space
on the large plain south-east of the Donjon—
and the criminal descended, attended by his con-
fessor, and walked with a firm step towards the
piquet of twelve men appointed to carry the sen-
tence into execution. His condemnation having
been read to him, be pressed the crucifix to his lips,
and took leave of his confessor, who immediately re-
tired with the officials in attendance. He then ad-
vanced to the front of the piquet, and when at a few
paces distant knelt down. A bandage was placed
over his eyes, and he himself gave the signal to fire
by letting fall a handkerchief. A sharp volley in-
stantly followed, and he fell lifeless. The condemned
conducted himself with perfect coolness, betraying
neither the least apprehension of death nor unbecom-
ing display of bravado. The morning was gloomy
and lowering, in perfect harmony with the melancholy
scene, and the grave and serious demeanour of the
troops as they marched past the extended body of the
criminal showed a perfect sense of the solemn and
painful spectacle they had been called upon to witness.
Captain Ducrest de Villeneuve, commanding the
frigate the Forte, which is at present in the roadstead
at Brest, was told three days ago that a sailor, noted
for his bad conduct, had refused to obey an order
given him by an officer on duty. The captain ordered
the man to obey; but, instead of complying, the sailor
seized a sword, and by a tremendous blow on the
head felled him to the deck. He then struck him
several times. He was at length secured. The blow
on the head was lessened by the captain having his
pocket-handkerchief in his cap, and tbe blows he re-
ceived when down were not serious. The crew were
with difficulty prevented from doing immediate justice
on the assailant. The captain is the son of the well-
known admiral. A court-martial has since assem-
bled, and condemned the man to death. His name is
La Marchadour, and he is only nineteen years of age.

ITALY.
The Corriere Mercantile of Genoa quotes a letter
from Turin of the 13th, in which it is stated that the
resignation of the Minister of the Interior, M. PER-
NATI, is spoken of as certain. The reason of this step
is believed to be this ; that M. PERNATI having pro-
posed to his colleagues to prosecute Count CARDENAS
for his attack in the Armonia upon the Ministerial
circular relative to the petitions against the Civil
Marriage Bill, and the Council of Alinisters having
decided the matter in the negative, M. PERNATI had
sought an opportunity of resigning.
The Countess of SOLMS BONAPARTE has arrived
at Genoa, on board the Dante steamer, from Leg-
horn.
The Official Gazette of Savoy of the 16th states
from Florence, that the authorities of that city have
caused the hippodrome to be closed on account of a
political demonstration made by one of the equestrian
performers. It appears that he exhibited the life of
NAPOLEON by means of various changes of dress.
'The taking of the bridge of Arcole excited great en-
thusiasm among the public ; the 18th Brumaire went
off tolerably well ; but at the coronation the people
began to hiss, whereupon the performer threw down
sceptre and crown, and trampled them under his feet.
The police then interfered ; the place was closed for a
fortnight, and the performer imprisoned for twenty-
four hours, with an express injunction never to per-
form pantomimes again.
