SPIRIT OF THE PUBLIC JOURNALS.

TIMES.—We publish this morning a letter from
M. Mazzini in explanation of the circumstances
under which Mr. Stansfeld's name has been brought
into connexion with the Greco plot. That explana-
tion, so far as it goes, is satisfactory, and answers
exactly to what would have been expected. As M.
Mazzini denies having had any communication with
Greco on the subject of this plot, it is obvious that
he cannot be expected to offer any explanation of
the finding of a letter among Greco 's papers direc-
ting him to write for money to the address of Mr.
Stansfeld. All that he can do is to explain the
circumstance of Mr. Stansfeld's address having
been known to Italian conspirators and used by
them at all. This he does by frankly admitting
that, in order to prevent letters to him from
being intercepted by continental authorities, he has
asked his English friends, and among them Mr.
Stansfeld, to allow letters to be addressed to him
under feigned names at their houses. That he had
given any instructions for letters to be so addressed
to him on this affair he, of course, entirely denies.
Now, what we have to say upon the matter is only
this—that we ought not to have received this first
instalment of explanation from M. Mazzini. It and
every other explanation which it was in Mr. Stans-
feld's power to give ought to have been readily, im-
mediately, and courteously offered to the Emperor
of the French, to the House of Commons, and to the
country. The tone of high moral indignation adopted
by Mr. Stansfeld, and on Monday night by Mr.
Layard, was entirely out of place. Of course, if an in-
sinuation of so terrible a character had been dropped
without their being a particle of fact to justify it—if
the Procureur-Imperial out of mere malicious suspi-
cion had charged members of the English Govern-
ment and of the English Parliament with being
connected with an atrocious conspiracy, the lan-
guage end tone adopted would have been the
only one possible. But, on the contrary, looking
on the matter as a mere question of evidence of
tact, there were prima facie grounds for the
insinuation. A letter is found among the papers
of a man convicted of a conspiracy to murder, in
which .he is directed to apply for money to pro-
mote his infamous purpose at the address of an
English gentleman. This money, moreover, was
to be supplied to him by Mazzini, and Mazzini was
known to be on intimate terms with the gentleman
in question, and to have " been in relation" with the
convict. t is not too much to say that, supposing
the letter to be genuine—and its genuineness was
assumed by the French prosecution—these circum-
stances present a chain of evidence which justifies the
moderate language used by the Procureur-Impe-
rial. Instead of resenting it, Mr. Stansfeld ought
to have gladly taken the opportunity to disentangle
his name, and the name of the country, the House of
Commons, and the Government, from the odious
connection into which they had unfortunately been
brought. But the very reverse of this is the course
pursued by Mr. Stansteld. He refuses explanation,
he even goes out of his way to defend the man who,
not altogether without apparent reason, was accused
of having been the instigator of the conspiracy, but
he had not one word to express his regret at his ad-
dress having been made use of by such miscreants.
When we see from M. Mazzini 's letter that Mr.
Stansfeld had himself placed his house in danger of
being thus abused, the tone which he has adopted
on the subject is the more unbefitting his position.
If the Emperor of the French were only a private
gentleman he would have just cause to feel indig-
nant, But the Emperor of the French is much more
—he is the head and the representative of a great
nation, and a wrong done to him is a wrong done
to a noble and generous people. He is, moreover,
our steadfast ally, and has displayed to us innume-
rable instances of goodwill and friendship. Has he
not, then, a right to claim that those persons who
represent our foreign relations should express their
regret at a circumstance which has given one of his
high officers of State occasion to complain in open
court that the house of a member of Parliament
has been abused for the purpose of abetting a
conspiracy against his life? If the agents of a Go-
vernment by any mistake or accident do, or appear
to do, anything which infringes on the rights of
another, it is the reasonable custom of diplomacy to
anticipate complaints by ample explanation, and,
if necessary, by apology. Bat here is an accident,
a misconception, what you will, which seems to
implicate us in an attack upon the highest per-
sonage in a neigbouring nation, and neither the
gentleman himself concerned nor the gentleman
who represents our foreign resaions in the House of
Commons expresses any regret, makes any explana-
tion, but both treat the whole matter in a tone of
indignant indifference. M. Mazzini put these gen-
tlemen to shame. He is not called upon by any
public considerations to make explanations in the
matter, but a simple regard for Mr. Stansfeld's posi-
tion induces him to come forward and say what he
can, Whatever his faults may be, he shows him-
self more sensible of what is due to his friends than
Mr. Stansfeld or Mr. Layard.
PoST.—The British officers who were so rashly
accused of wanton and needless cruelty in Japanese
waters have had their character satisfactorily vin-
dicated. The documents read by Mr. Layard in the
House of Commons, on Monday night, have com-
pletely swept away whatever suspicions might have
still lingered in prejudiced minds as to the bombard-
ment of Kagosima. Whatever the reluctance of
those whose philanthropy and benevolence may
have clouded their judgment, to listen to a defence
of Admiral Kuper and Colonel Neale, offered by
Englishmen, they cannot at least refuse to yield
their credence to the testimony of Japanese wit-
nesses. The murder of Mr. Richardson, and the
brusque rejection, by the Daimio Satguma, under
circumstances of intentional insult, of the claims
preferred by the British, are facts the t have never
been in dispute. Those who undertook to inculpate
Admiral Kuper and Colonel Neale have never
questioned these facts; never thrown the least
doubt upon them. This being premised, let us
proceed to hear what account the Japanese them-
selves give of the subsequent train of events.
Prince Satsuma's own officers and repre-
sentatives, who came after the capture of
his ships and the bombardment of his for-
tress had brought that dignitary to reason—to
pay the indemnity and negotiate a convention, are
the witnesses whose evidence is now before us.
And what is their testimony ? They tell us in so
many word that Prince Satsuma, in contemplation
of an attack by the British fleet, had the population
of the town of Kagosima withdrawn to the neigh-
bouring villages further in the interior of the coun-
try. When the steamers were seized information
was sent off with the utmost despatch to the Deimie
for orders. The orders, returned with equal speed,
were to fire on the British ships. The Japanese
officers took advantage of a typhoon to open their
batteries on our squadron, thinking that our ships
would be rendered helpless, and their guns would
be made ineffective by the storm ; and this very cir-
cumstance was the cause of the fire being blown into
their pasteboard town. The fire, however, might
have been easilfput out had not the inhabitants—
men, women, and children—previously removed
to a place of safety. Pasteboard houses are easily
ignited and burn rapidly, but they have also the
advantage of being built up again with equal facility
and despatch ; and the Daimio Satsuma's own
agents and representatives state that the damage
was being rapidly repaired, and what houses had
been destroyed were being rebuilt. This, they said,
the'British might see with their own eyes if they
visited the town. The only Japanese who were on
the spot when the broadsides of the English ships
were directed against the Daimio's fortress were
some six thousand of the Daimio's troops, who were
on duty and in part engaged in serving and man.
ning his batteries. One very characteristic and
suggestive circumstance is disclosed by these native
witnesses. According to their account, such of the
six thousand soldiers as were not necessary to work
the batteries were stationed as a reserve in the rear
of the fortress, where, until required to act, they

were to remain out of danger from the British shod'
and shell. And we are told by the Daimio's agents
with great naïveté that when the garrison was
thinned off as the bombardment proceeded, these
reserves were so terrified by the English fire,
that they evinced the utmost reluctance to go into
the works and take their places at the guns ; and
it was not without the greatest difficulty that they
flould be prevailed upon to do so. This is the
oham7teristic of what is called Oriental civilisation.
Readiness :o murder in cold blood the unarmed and
defenceless, or a
single individual when there is a
host to attack him, .

-Yenta of
tion to the statements of the Japanes6 ther
ew
Prince Satsuma, we also are in possession of ° of
facts equally conducive to a right understanding
the matter. The town of Kagosima, instead of COtv
taining one hundred and eighty thousand people,
only contained forty thousand, who, as we have
seen, had retired up the country into the villages
out of harm's way, when it scented danger afar off,
and their absence was the reason of the fire not
being extinguished as soon as it was caused, a"
they on their return, after the bombardment
over, speedily set themselves to reinstate theif
fragile and inflammable dwellings. It was only el
few stray shots of those aimed at the batteries an 4
fortress that chanced by accident to enter the town;
and then the typhoon, which they bad hoped would
cripple the English squadron end derange the pre*
cision of our fire, blew the flames from ono house to
another. But the testimony of the Japanese envoy!
shows on the face of it that the damage done eoulo
neither be serious where it occurred, nor at all Vsid,e3
spread. Thu following passage in Colonel Neait°
statement deserves particular attention I deem
it desirable to add," says he, "that the popele
tion of Kagosima at no period exceeded forty
thousand souls, and not one hundred and eighty
thousand, as has be'n strangely imagined to serve
as a more striking text for cotssments; and, fur'
tber, that those forty thousand soulde—merif
women, and children—withdrew while their
huts and paper houses incurred the risks attel'
dant upon stray shot and shell from a British
squadron, audaciously fired upon the numerous bat'
teries because it hal signalled its intention to obtain
redress for a barbarous murder and outrage coo"
mitted upon a British subject for which all redress
had been evaded. Subsequent events, the volnir
tart' payment of the indemnity demanded, the
formal obligation entered into to execute the reel'
derers of Mr. Richardson when arrested, the pre'
fessions of friendship cheerfully expressed by Prince
Satsuma's envoys on behalf of their chief, their d 81;
sire to cultivate friendly and social intercourse vs:te
the British nation, and their graceful offerings (01
fruit) to the crew of the flag-ship of the British
admiral, after the facts of Kagosima, would all WY'
ply that the agents of her Majesty displayed i;
degree of cautioc, and moderation duly appreciatesi
by those most deeply interested." We never hau
any doubt that the officers who represented Ear
land in Japan did not exceed their duty, but Per
formed it wisely, bravely, and well, to maintain till
honour of their country and defend the lives 00
British subjects. But we certainly must belie/
that the reaped and good-will exhibited by Prise°
Satsuma's agents were really due to the vigour'
promptitude, and decision with wtiich Col. Neel°
and Admiral Kuper acted, rather than to any °thea
considerations whatever. Had our officers behavto
in a way that would in the least have borne the
interpretation of wavering or timidity, the SW:
nese, who only understand the arguments of far?
would have regarded us with profound conterer
and would very probably have expressed it, tog'
ther with some other characteristic sentiments, b;
a general massacre of all the English in the costij
try. This, of course, must have been chastised,
thus a long and furious war might have been e';
tailed upon us with a compact nation of some thir,,J
millions of people at the Antipodes—a war invey,,,
ing the lives of thousands, and the waste of prelo'o
tionate treasure. As it is, this calamity has beto,
averted, by the wise vigour of two British 00060
whose eminent services have brought upon tbe
the most unjust incriminations,

ABRIDGED PROSPECTUS.

This Company is formed for the purchase and working
the celebrated Frontino and Bolivia Gold Mines and works
in New Granada, South America.
The Di( eaters feel great pleasure in calling attention to
the reports furnished by Captain William Goyen. It is
well known that the St. John del Rey Mining Company is
egpecially indebted to this gentleman for its success, as the
Directo.s of that Company have so repeatedly and substan-
tially acknowledged, He was in their service for 16 years
as mining engineer, and, by his practical knowledge and
the introduction of machinery of his own invention, brought
those mines to their present position as the most productive
and best paying gold mines in the world.
Captain G ,yen is now engaged to proceed to New
Granada, to superintend the operations of the Fr( ntino and
Bolivia Mines, and is taking with him machinery of a like
character. but on an improved principle, to that which he
introduced and which is now working at the St. John del
Rey Company's mines; an so satisfied are the directors of
the success of this undertaking, that they and their friends
have already agreed to take a large number of shares.
The reports of Captain Goyer. and other reliable autho-
rities,
made from personal observation, designate these
Alines as equal, if not superior, to any in the known world.
No charges whatever will be made for preliminary ex-
penses up to the time of allotment.
Applications for shares may be made to the London and
Cosinty Bank, Lombard-street, or any of its branches; or
to the brokers or secretary of the Company. Allotments
will be made according to priority of application, and in
case of non-allotment the deposit will be returned without
do~uction.
Plans and sections of the property, with specimens of
rich gold ore from the mines, and a model of Captain
G°Yell's machinery, may be seen at the offices of the Coin-
PanY, where prospectuses, reports, and every information
may be obtained.

RaTi his Company has been formed for the construction of a
• lwaY from Douglas to Peel (passing through St. John's),
in the Isle of Man. The improved trade of these important
as well as the prosperous condition and increasing
Population of the island, and the rapid augmentation of the
number of visitors during late years, call for the immediate
introduction of railways.
The Agricultural capabilities of the Island are great; and
its Mineral products are acknowledged to be rich in yield
and av ore average value ; whilst around the Coast there
are extensive Fisheries, and an unlimited supply of Sea-
Weed for Manure. The expense and trouble, however, of
land-carriage, have hitherto rendered these advantages com-
paratively unavailable.
Slate Quarries are in active operation; and the quality
of the Slate is equal in closeness of grain and durability to
any produced from the great Welsh quarries. The Granite
tear St. John's compares favourably with that now used in
the Liverpool Dock Works, and would at once, by means of
railway facilities, become available for export.
One of the proposed Stations on the line will be at St.
John's, where the Courts of Tynwald meet, and which is
also the centre of the Foxdale mining district. The produce
of these mines is now brcught by land-carriage (there being
no water communication) to Douglas, a distance of nearly
ten miles, whilst Coals and other important materials, as
well as all necessaries required by the inland population,
are conveyed into the interior by the same mode. Besides
these items of traffic, the Fairs, which are frequently held
during tho year in this district, must add considerably to
the annual revenue of the Company.
The principal towns are Douglas, Peel, Castletown,
Ramsey, and Laxey : Douglas being the chief port, and the
great commercial depot, as well as the principal place of
arrival and departure of the steam packets plying to and
from the Island. At the port of Peel the fisheries are prin-
cipally conducted, employing upwards of 1,000 vessels;
the place of destination tor the produce is Douglas ; the
route is tedious, and the transit by the existing means ex-
pensive.. _

The access to the Island is easy, and the means of com•
munication with Liverpool, Fleetwood, Whitehaven,
Silloth, Glasgow, Belfast, Dublin, and other ports, both by
sfiilin,g and steam vessels, are frequent and convenient.
Hence, Tourists visit the Island in large numbers, above
100,000 passengers having been landed at its Ports during
the past year, Such Visitors, attracted by the antiquarian
relies, scenery, and other objects of interest, would, as a
matter of course, go by the proposed Railway from Douglas
to the interior, and across the Island to Peel.
The highest medical authorities bear testimony to the
anlubrity of the climate and purity of the water. The
picturesque is united with the more solid advantage of cheap
Living, provisions being abundant and comparatively inex•
pensive, whilst the rates of duties on foreign produce are so
small as to render the Island most advantageous as a per-
manent place of residence.
Her Majesty's Government and the Local Authorities are
new expending upwards of £60,000, for the improvement of
the Ports of Douglas and Peel
The Electric Telegraph to England has been recently
established.
The Lines of Rail will be single, with requisite sidings.
The length of Line will be about twelve miles, and the
gradients easy throughout. The landowners and popula-
tion along it are most favourable to the project.
From Statistics recently collected on the spot, with much
care, by competent persons, and well supported by Official
Returns, it is confidently expected that the Traffic wit re-
turn a good Dividend upon the Invested Capital, The fol-
lowing is an Estimate of the Traffic :

Passengers, inclusive of Tourists £7,500 per annum.
Goods Minerals, Fish, &o, 5,500
Pareds aad Mails

£13,150
Working Expenses at even 50 per Cent. 6,500

Leaving for Dividend £6,6bo

Plans, Sactions, &c., of the Line are completed, and all
tittessary forms are being complied with, in accordance with
the St.. ndin,g Orders of the Court of Tynwald to obtain an
Act of the Local Parliament.

Neither Imperial or Local Taxes are levied in the Island,
and those heavy charges which tend so much to reduce the
value of Railway property in England and other countries,
no less than to diminish the Shareholders' Dividends, can-
not, in any degree whatever, prevail with respect to this
Lino.

An eminent Contractor's firm have agreed to purchase
the land, make the Railway, provide and fit up all Stations,.
furnish Rolling Stock for working the Line, and Telegraphs,
upon satisfactory teams. Interest at 5 per cent, per Annum
will be allowed, until the opening of the Line, on the amount
paid upon shares.
An advantageous arrangement can be made with respon-
sible parties to Lease the Line for 7. 14, or 21 years.
Forms of Application for Shares may be obtained from
the Secretary, Solicitors, or Brokers of the Convoy,
