Shocking accounts are given of the new Papal
prison of Civita Vecchia. It is worthy the worst days of
Spielberg and the Pozzi and Piombi. Political prisoners,
confined on suspicion, are ironed, fed, and treated like the
worst criminals. The court where they walk is 20 paces
by eight. Each cell has two windows, one opening on the
court, which is closed at sunset, the other into the passage/
which is also closed an how later. Then for the night the
poor prisoner is nearly stifled. Except one shirr° nobedr,
comes near these poor victims, who are forbidden to

out of the window, and are denied the use either of
tile"
books, their papers, or their money.

wheelbarrows, not crinoline, were before the court,
and he should inflict a fine of five dollars and costs. " I
