ITALY.

The Royal Court of Florence continued the exa-
mination of Rotnanelli in its sitting of the 21st. To
this imputation of having signed the decree of the
22d of February, by which a Committee of War
INLO named to judge perturbators of the public peace
by martial law, Roinaneili replied that this measure
was forced upon him by the deplorable state of society
at that period,when rapine and muti-ler were F.:rpetrated
under colour of overthrowing the Government, and re-
storing the Prince, but in reality, from very different
motives. Its gave a similar explanation respecting. the
decree of the 23d March, ordering a moveable column
of troops to proceed to Arezzo, to suppress the re-
act;ionary movement which had broken out there. He
stared that the only political motive which could be
attributed to that movement was, not an intention of
recalling the Sovereign, but a general hatred of
liberal institutions manifested by the country-popu-
lation, a hatred which had been still heightened by
ceittain priests preaching against the government. A
pretext was thus given to miscreants of every descrip-
tion for committing crimes which no government
could tolerate, and the only way to put them down
was. martial law. Romanelli further contended that
his own mission to Arezzo was one of pacification,
an di that he was particularly anxious to prevent arbi-
triiry acts by the military commission. E showed
that when he marched against Montepulciano, and
wits met by a deputation of the inhabitants, who ex-
pressed the most peaceable intentions, he did the
same, and made his troops observe the strictest order.
In the bloody collisions at Laterina, he had only four
persons arrested. The military commission showed
such moderation in the exercise of its functions, that
this Grand Duke afterwards amnestied it. Romanelli
dt nied ever having cried hva la Republica! and
co ncluded with some observations on his arrest at
G i

wore then read, and the court adjourned to the 23d.

MORE PERSECUTION 1N FLORENCE.

We regret to state that a most pious and excellent
man, the confidential clerk in a banking establishment in
Florence, has just been consigned to a dungeon in that
city, because of his Protestant principles. He was
dragged out of his bed at four o'clock in the morning,
and conveyed to prison, without any specific charge
being preferred against him. Nor up to the date of our
latest advices from Florence had any charge against him
been made. But there can be no doubt that his sole
offence is that of reading the Bible. The circumstance
has occasioned a profound sensation, the unfortunate
man being highly respected by all who know him. What
gives additional interest to the case, is the fact of the
obsolete laws making religious offences capital, having
been revived within the last few weeks. Morning

ELECTION INTELLIGENCE.

ABINGDON. 50
St.
A beautifully bright and frosty morning dawned upon Kn
the election proceedings yesterday. The doors of the Town-
hall were thrown open a little before 11 o'clock, when a 20
tremendous rush was made, and it was with great diffi- 20
culty seats were reserved for the candidates and their
friends.—Mr. W. Stacey proposed, and Mr. E. Payne, 25
miller, seconded the nomination of Lord Norreys, as a fit
and proper person to represent the borough in Parlia-
20
ment.—Alderman Belcher next proposed Daniel Higford 20
Davell Burr, Esq., of Aldermaston, and this gentleman was 50
seconded by Alderman Hyde.—Lord. Norreys then addressed 20
the assemblage at considerable length in explanation of 2010
his political views. He defended the course which he
adopted in reference to the Ecclesiastical Titles Bill, de- St2s'
dared himself a Free-trader in the most extended sense of
25
the term, and concluded by addressing a warning to the St.
industrious classes against being deluded or seduced into
any support of the present Government.—Mr. Burr having
also addressed the electors, a show of hands was taken,
which was greatly in favour of Lord Norreys.—A poll was St.
demanded on behalf of Mr. Burr, and the proceedings 5
terminated by a vote of thanks to the Mayor. St.

been suspended for so doing ; and consequently af-
ter the 27th no other newspapers than the Espana,

c.iR AMP T ON'S PILL of HEALTH.
I. The following testimonial is another proof of the great efficacy
of this medicine :

" Winchmore Hill, Middlesex, April 16, 1851.
Sir,—ln consideration of the great benefit I have derived from
taking Frampton's Pill of Health, I feel it a duty that I owe to you
and the public to send you the following statement. For upwards of
nine years I have experienced the efficacy of this excellent medicine.
I had long previously been afflicted with headache and indigestion,
but a friend having induced me to make a trial of Frampton's Pills,
I now inform you that a few doses gave me great relief; and during
this long period of time I have taken them in preference to any other
medicine ; and I have the happiness of saying that I never had a
better state of health, which I attribute to Frampton's Pills. I beg
further to add, that this medicine, is in general use by my family, and
we know of nothing to equal it.

" I am, Sir, yours respectfully,
THOMAS PROVINCE.

To Mr. T. Prout, 229, Strand, London.

This excellent Family Pill is a medicine of long-tried efficacy for
correcting all disorders of the stomach and bowels, and is a
pleasant, safe, easy aperient ; they unite the recommendation of a
mild operation with the most successful effect, and require no re-
straint of diet or confinement during their use.

NELSON'S DAUGHTER.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN:-
SlR,—Allow me, through your widely-circulated
columns, to call public attention to the fact that Nelson's
only daughter, Horatio., is not provided for, after.- the
lapse of nearly half a century since his remains ere
consigned to the tomb, and his dying request un-
fulfilled by the country, only a trifle having', f' 'raised
to provide for her. The sum of between and 9001.
is all that has been gathered, and she ve sons and
three daughters.
Amongst the list of names who have contributed to
this object is that of His Royal Highness Prince Albert,
who has given 251.
Now that the tomb of Nelson has been entered for the
first time perhaps since his remains were deposited in
1805, to admit those of Arthur the late Duke of Wel-
lington, the mournful circumstance ought of itself to
awaken the country from its 47 years of slumber and
neglect of the dying wish of its greatest naval hero,
whose request has so long been forgotten and apparently
entombed with his remains.
It is to be lamented that, amidst the sorrow
and national regret which pervades the country,

ASSESSED TAXES.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.
SlR,—There is no ten per cent. imposed upon the in-
habited house-duty. Why, then, should it not be taken
off the other assessed taxes ?

I do not pay one shilling for carriage, horse, dog, or
so on ; (house-duty I do) and cannot, therefore, be said
to speak through a niggardly self-interest.
25th Nov., 1852. LOOKER-ON.

ACTS or PARLIAMENT.— A return !to the House of
Commons, obtained by Mr. Brotherton, M.P., was lately
printed, showing the number of acts passed in each session
since the year 1800. The total number in the period em-
braced by the order, comprising public, private, local, and
personal acts, was 17,120. The largest number was passed
in 1813-14, when 488 were passed, and the smallest num-
ber in 1841, when 15 received the Royal assent. At the
railway mania there wero as many as 402 local and per-
sonal acts passed in 1846, and 297 in the following year—
the highest numbers in the whole period of local and per-
sonal acts.
STATE OF THE WEATHER IN lllEL+.ND.—Winter has
already set in in its harshest, form. On Sunday there was a
rather heavy shower of snow, which, although it melted
on touching the ground in and around the city of Dublin,
continues to whiten the sides of the neighbouring
mountains. The wind blew with excessive coldness,
accompanied by occasional showers of sleet and rain,
and the season seems to have assumed its severest
aspect at an unusually early period ; the weather at this
moment being more like that of January than November.
Many places in the interior of the country still continue
to suffer from the floods.

LITERATURE.

The Colonial and Asiatic .Review.—The .chief
article in the present number is in continuation of
a former one on the Upper India Railway. The
importance of this subject cannot be questioned.
The writer asks—" Is England for ever to remain
dependent on America for her cotton ? Are the
populous cities and busy marts of India to remain
for ever hermetically sealed from the want of
roads ?" The great object to be attained is the
connexion of Calcutta with the north-west fron-
tier. The substance of the address recently de-
livered by Mrs. Chisholm at Newcastle is given.
There are interesting papers on Colonial Postage,
and a new mode of making Sugar. This number
also contains W. C. Bennett's spirited " Death
March of Wellington."

FRANCE.

It has been observed that the movement in fa-
vour of the Empire during the late election was
remarkable in La Vendee. It is admitted even by
those of their chiefs who have remained faithful to
the cause of the Bourbons, that the peasants
showed as much eagerness as they did for Louis
XIV. during the wars of La Vendee. Out of 10,304
voters there were 9,924 affirmative votes to 303
negative. Several members of the old Legitimist
families in La Vendee walked to the polling-booths
at the head of their tenants, as their ancestors for-
merly led their followers to battle. Their clergy,
who havepreserved their ancient influence over them
were most active in canvassing for Louis Napoleon;
and to this is owing, in great measure, what has
occurred. The journals of the southern depart-
ments remark as extraordinary the change which
has taken place in the political opinions of 'the
population of the Aude. In 1848, that department
elected Barbes and other equally violent Montag-
nards as members of the Constituent Assembly
by 56,000 votes. In the year 1849, when the
friends of order began to assume the upper hand,
their candidates could never poll more than 36,000
votes ; whilst the Reds followed close after them
with 30,000 votes. On the vote for the Plebiscite
in 1851 there were 57,000 affirmative votes, but
there were likewise 10,207 negative. On the late
election there were 70,516 affirmative votes, and
only 575 negative. It must be observed further
that but 8,000 electors have "abstained."

pRAMPTON'S PILL of HEALTH.
The following testimonial is another proof of the great efficacy
of this medicine :

" Winchmore Hill, Middlesex, April 16, 1951.
" Sir,—ln consideration of the great benefit I have derived from
taking Frampton's Pill of Health, I feel it a duty that I owe to you
and the public to send you the following statement. For upwards of
nine years I have experienced the efficacy of this excellent medicine.
I had long previously been afflicted with headache and Indigestion,
but a friend having induced me to make a trial of Frampton's Pills,
I now inform you that a few doses gave me great relief ; and during
this long period of time I have taken them in preference to any other
medicine ; and I have the happiness of saying that I never had a
better state of health, which I attribute to Framptons Pills. I beg
further to add, that this medicine is in general use by my family,
we know of nothing to equal it.
"I am, Sir, yoars respectfully,

THE LEVANT.

By the Levant mail we have received Constan-
tinople journals to the 14th ult., Smyrna to the
12th, and Athens to the 17th ult. The former
state that, by Imperial ordinance, Mgr. Anthimos,
Greek patriarch, had been dismissed, and the Greek
community, consisting of the chiefs of corporations,
primates, bishops, archbishops, and notable persons
had, in compliance with the recommendation of
the Government, elected M. Germanos, ex-patri-
arch, to the vacant office. The Government, in
addition to the measures it had adopted for pro-
moting education in different parts of the Empire,
had sent a number of professors and substitutes to
establish schools in Bosnia. The Imperial troops
had gained some more advantage over the rebel
Druces, at Hauran, near Damascus. Nechel Bey
has been appointed ambassador at Athens, in the
place of Kabouli Effendi, who has been appointed
Secretary to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs at
Constantinople.

City, for the manner in which he sustained the high office of Chief
Magistrate, for the punctuality of his attendance in this Court, and

tions of this City, for the readiness of access he invariably afforded,

have been published in contradiction of its asser-
tions, which, the writer truly observes, only
strengthen Mrs. Stowe's cause. Chambers' Edin-

London, England, 1852-12-02

GERMANY.

The following, dated the 29th, has been received
yesterday from Berlin :
"The president of the Council opened the session this
day by a speech, in which he touched on the following
points :—The budget has been regulated according to
the requirements of the State, and according to the eco-
nomy and regularity which tradition has handed down.
tip to the present time the treaty of September has not
obtained the adhesion of all the States of the Zollverein.
That is to be regretted ; but the Government is convinced
that its conduct in this matter will receive the approba-
tion of the Chambers. Propositions will be made to
the two Chambers relative to the establishments of
new communications. The Government will present
to them bills on the organisation of the com-
munes and circles, and on the subject of the
First Chamber ; the latter will have for object to disen-
gage the Crown from the obstacles which are contrary
to the interests of the country. The Government is re-
solved not to submit to the influence of any party, and
to make no attack upon legal liberty. But, on the other
hand, it desires that the royal authority shall not be
weakened by a division of power, which would be preju-
dicial to it. The legal course pursued in the develop-
ment of the Constitution will give an efficacious guaran-
tee to all rights, and lead to durable results."
The Official Gazette of Prussia states that on
the 26th ult. the Plenipotentiaries of Prussia and
of the States of Thuringia signed the treaty for the
prolongation of the Thuringian Customs and Com-
mercial Union ; and that on the 27th the accession
of the said States to the treaty of September 7,
1851, was also signed.

THE LEVANT.

tinople journals to the 14th ult., Smyrna to the
