Loja.

ceptional measures."

TURIN, SEPT. 3.

The official Gazette of to-day says :—" Garibaldi
has been removed to Varignano, in the Gulf of
Spezzia, where an apartment has been prepared for
him. His wounds appear to be slight. The Go-
vernment has ordered two distinguished medical
men to atend him."

The Gazetta di Torino says :—" Signor Desam-
brois and Cassimi were present at the extraordinary
Council of Ministers held yesterday. The opinion
which prevailed at the Council was that justice

Ministers were in favour of an amnesty being pro-
claimed. Nothing was decided as to the form of
trial, but the question will be submitted to the con-
sideration of the Council to be held to•day."

BOURSE, Sept. 3.—The market has been more
buoyant, and Stuck having been rather in demand
by persons who have been compelled to purchase in
order to effect their settlement, prices arf somewhat
higher. Threes, for the Account, are now at
69fr. 20e. The Railway Share Market also firmer,
with an improvement on some of the lines. The
market closed as follows :

but the aelf•possession and determination &Down by
both during the judiciary investigation, and after,
not to divulge any secret or the names of other con-
spirators, prove them both to have been, young as
they were, men of nerve and character. The exe-
cution was witnessed by more than 10,000 people,
all of whom remained silent and engaged in pray-
ing till the fatal stroke, when loud shrieks and
execration were uttered, to the great dismay of the
authorities. Nay, a collision took place between
the people and the police, and more than 130
persons, chiefly women, were arrested for shed-
ding tears and weeping over their friends and
relatives. The scene was most touching, and even
excited the sympathy of the Russian soldiers, who
also were conveyed to prison. Such was this tragic
ceremony which harmonised with the dark and dreary
atmosphere till the knot was tied, when of a sudden
a bright sunshine broke out, an event which was
interpreted by the supplicatory multitude as if
Heaven opened th.e gates to receive and to welcome
the martyrs of their oppressed country.
It cannot be denied even by the most enthusiastic
admirer of the system now pursued, that the Czar
end his Government are thus widening the bridge
that separates them from the Polish nation. When
the Grand Duke Constantine arrived every one was
certain that he brought with him a decided pro-
gramme of reforms and concessions, instead of
which nothing has been effected, and the only
change now in existence is that in the place of
General Luders and Kreyzanowsky, we have his
Imperial Highness and the Marquis Wielopolski.
Now, without questioning the Polish character of
the latter, it is certain that his conduct is un-
bearable, and stands in the way of any possible
reconciliation of his countrymen. Whether for
good or for bad, seeing himself so unpopular and
so exposed to public scourge, he ought to make
room for another person in the office, and the Em-
peror has no right to uphold at the head of his
Government a man whose obstinacy and over-
bearing conduct expose the young and impatient
to the perpetration of acts so disapproved by the
majority of the Poles. The Government must see
that they are the cause of these attempts at assassi-
nation, which take their source in the involuntary
persecution of the nation ; and they may be con-
vinced that the Poles well know how to keep up
the lofty position they now hold through their
political wisdom and moderation,and bide their time,
while Russia herself seems to be forcing on Poland.
According to the news that reach us from St.
Petersburg a general dissatisfaction prevails in
the army, and officers of high position are discovered
among the arch-conspirators against the Czar,
whose life was saved only by miracle. Conflagrations
have recommenced in the capital, and continue in
the most distant parts of the empire, and every class
of the population are anxiously invoking a new
state of things. What a storm is gathering, and
what will be its effects, it is frightful to contem-
plate.

Meantime the Grand Duke has issued an appeal
to the Poles in terms almost supplicating their aid,
and flattering their national pride. One would
hardly believe that it should proceed from the pen
of a Russian, and denotes how Russia is afraid of
her Polish subjects, since she is compelled to talk
of Polish glory and political virtues, a language
never attempted to be held by the Czars ever since
they became the masters of ancient Poland. Here
is the translation of this appeal from the Polish
language :

ITALY.

The foreign papers do not bring any further
news from Italy than what we have received by
telegraph. The ball which had entered Garibaldi's
foot has been successfully extracted. Menotti
Garibaldi, whose wound is more severe, is also
progressing favourably. Tranquillity has been re-
stored in all those towns where an attempt at a
demonstration was made.

Poles I Our most gracious Emperor and Ring, my illus-
trious brother, in appointing me his lieutenant in the king-
dom, intended to give his Polish subjects an unmistakable,
proof of his benevolent intentions. I did not conceal from
myself the difficulties of the task in accepting the duties im-
posed upon me by my illustrious sovereign. But the sin-
cerity of my sentiments, the confidence I place in the
Almighty, and the sympathies of every truly patriotic Pole,
all combined to inspire me with courage.
With this purpose I obeyed the voice of my monarch,
and, as a guarantee for the genuineness of my sentiments,
transferred to Warsaw all that is dearest to my heart. Only
the day after the attempt against the representative of the
Emperor, my wife and my children arrived at the capital.
Fortified by the purity of my conscience, and determined
tc devote all my energies to your happiness, I appeared
among you under the protection of the unbounded confi-
dence I placed in your sympathies. But my foot had no
trodden your soil before the murderer was already armed to
give me the death-blow. In the midst of the people that
had come to greet my arrival death lay in ambush waiting
for his prey. Death followed the when my first steps in
this capital were directed to the altar of God,
By the grace of God alone was I saved.
Since then two other attempts have been made against
the man who, being one of your compatriots, had been as-
sociated with, me by the confidence of the Emperor and
King as a co-operator in the great work.
The arm of justice has struck the guilty ones. The Go-
vernment of his Majesty will know how to destroy sinful
enterprises, and how to protect the good and well-iaten-
tioned ones.

The different versions of the battle of Aspromonte
(says the Independence Belge) are still very conflict-
ing. According to some, it was very warmly con-
tested, bayonets being used in the attack : and it
required all the dash and solidity of picked men
like the Bersaglieri to overcome the spirited resist-
ance of the volunteers and their chief. Of that ver-
sion we do not believe one word. The small num-
ber of killed, the disproportion between the number
of prisoners—two thousand—and the force of their
adversaries-1,800 men—the text itself of the pro-
clamation drawn up by Garibaldi at Catania—all
lead us, on the contrary, to form the conviction
that no serious resistance was offered. Gari-
b.ldi was evidently reluctant to engage in
civil war. His design was to involve the army
and the whole nation in a general movement
towards Rome ; failing in that, he did not attempt
to struggle. His defeat cannot otherwise be ac-
counted for, when brigands like Crocco and others
are liable to hold in check for months the armies
sent in their pursuit.
The Austrian Gazette comments as follows on
the change which may be caused in Italy by the
capture of Garibaldi

Poles I Will you really permit a party insignificant in
numbers, but insensate in its objects and abominable in its
means, to open an abyss between the throne and the nation,
and to prevent the most generous intentions of the Empe-
ror from being fulfilled ? Will you really suffer an unna-
tural conspiracy to terrorise the people, under the semblance
of liberty and patriotism ? I call upon you to remember
the moral purity of your glorious ancestors, in whose his-
tory not a single page has been tainted with such execrable
deeds. I call upon you to convince the world by your at-
titude that you have nothing in common with crimes• that
degrade the nation.

The whole state of affairs is suddenly changed,
and what was thought impossible has taken place.
Garibaldi who, but yesterday, thought himself
powerful enough to insult Victor Emmanuel and
even the Emperor of the French, is now crushed and
a prisoner. The man who escaped from the common
pursuit of Austrians and French : who, in the war of
Italy, maintained himself against General Urban,
and more recently destroyed the Neapolitan army
with a handful of men, has been beaten in a first
encounter by a plain Colonel ! Victor Emmanuel
is rid of a man whom he feared almost as a
rival ; Ratazzi is now more powerful than any
minister has ever been before him. But Garibaldi
as a prisoner already proves a cause of embarrass•
ment for the Turin Government. With Garibaldi
the man who had the greatest popularity in Italy
disappears from the scene, but the secret societies
scattered over the whole of the Peninsula still re-
main. Ratazzi has got rid of the chief, but not of
the soldiers. It is the French Government which
has the greatest reason to be satisfied with an event
which relieves it from a very great difficulty."

A great number of most important reforms have been ac •
corded by the Emperor and King for the satisfaction of
real requirements, and are already in course of being car-
ried out. A Council of State has been formed; the
schools are organised, and a special department of clerical
and educational affairs is instituted in the Ministry; the
peasants have been provided with land, and the Jews
emancipated ; town and district councils formed, and sun-

how to destroy, but is totally at a loss how to set up.
Poles I I beg you to confide in me, as I have rested my
confidence in you. Unite with me in the same feeling, and
let us labour in concord for the good of Poland. Let us
blend our prayers for our joint endeavours to be granted
the blessing of the Almighty. Then will a new era of
happiness and prosperity dawn upon the country which
you so dearly love.

CONSTAIVTINE.

The Scotsman contradicts the statement that
Lord Palmerston is this year to pay a visit to the High-
lands.

A correspondent of the Belfast News Letter de-
scribes an extraordinary contest which took place last Sun-
day in Coalisland Church, county Tyrone. Two gentlemen
disputed about the right to a seat, and began a regular
fight in the aisle. They were separated by the congrega-
tion, but they agreed to meet again in the evening and fight
it out in the same place, and the victor was to have
the seat. From the social position of the parties
concerned and the unusual place where the quarrel
had begun and was to be finished, an immense excitement
quickly spread through the town and the adjacent neigh-
bourhood. The road about the church was crowded with
people of every denomination. Mr. Little, J.P., having
received intelligence of what had occurred, sent into Dun-
gannon for a party of police. They came out to Coatisland
just as the people were collecting for evening service, and
prevented the unseemly disturbance.
