'lament was therefore an idle ceremony. That
announcement was, however, formally contradicted
by an official proclamation, laying, as it were, the
fate of Nice in the hands of its people by pro-
mising an appeal to the public suffrage, and then,
on the second election 417 , the 19th, the voters
rushed to the polis ing- eat numbers and re- •
turned Garibaldi by an almost complete unanimity.
On that day Nice voted not only for the General,
but also for Italy. Garibaldi was in Turin to-day,
and took his seat in the House. His fair or rather
fox•coloured (fulca) hair and complexion, and lion-
like face presented a strange contrast to the milder
countenances of the smug civilians around him. He
professes to have come to do stout battle for his
native city in the House, and combat the annexa-
tion scheme by words, as he would be too happy to
fight against it by might of arm. Would it were only
of any avail !

An unexpected melancholy incident came sud-
denly to interrupt the sitting. General Quaglia,
the temporary President of the Chamber by right of
age, broke down in a short speech in which he was
putting one of the elections to the vote, and sank
into the arms of some of the bystanders, struck with
a fit of apoplexy or paralysis, by which his life is
even at this present moment endangered. He was
removed to one of the anterooms and bled freely,
but up to this present time (8 o'clock in the evening)
little improvement is apparent. Altogether the sud-
denness of the event and the ensuing dismay and
consternation reminded me forcibly of the pictures
I have seen of the death of Lord Chatham in the
House of Lords. The sitting was adjourned in-
stantly. General Quaglia is only 72 years old. The
real Doyen of the Deputies, Jocopo Sanvitale, who
is 74, yielded the honour which was due to him to
the gallant veteran. The priestly party are already
crowing about this accident, in which they fancy
they see the first effect of excommunication, and the
work of " Goces finger."
A petition praying for the preservation of Nice as
a member of the new Italian State is circulating at
Genoa, and has already been covered with thousands
of signatures.

Generals Sonnaz and Menabrea, distinguished
Savoyard officers, have been plied by the Emperor
Napoleon with the most tempting offers to induce
them to enter the French service, but have firmly
declined to quit their rank in the Sardinian army.
The King's journey to Florence and Central Italy
is variously announced for the 15th, the 17th, and
the 20th; I believe the latest is the most probable
date.

The Presidency of the Chamber will probably
be conferred by the election of the Deputies upon
Buoncompagni, who filled that office for several
years previous to his mission to Florence.

NAPLES.

(From the Times' Correspondent.)

NAPLES, MARCH 3.
If all the reports that one hears about Sicily have
a moiety of truth in them, the state of that island
is such as to awaken grave solicitude. In my last
letter I told you that Prince Castelcicala had arrived
in Naples with his family ; and, though he may re-
turn for a time, I believe I may state that the
Prince considers Sicily no longer a safe residence
for his sister and his daughter. It is said, too, that
many of the employes have sent up their families` to
Naples for similar reasons. lam not surprised at
these apprehensions or precautions, for the Sicilians,
like the Neapolitans, are bowed down to the ground
by oppression, and, being more united than the
latter, are in a better state to resist, and stories have
long been circulating here that such a resistance is
being organised. Indeed, the history of many
monthi—nay, years—in that island has been a his-
tory of discontents, struggles, outbreaks, and law-
less acts of vengeance. I have heard from several
independent sources that a packet of arms was
found the other day in front of the palace in
Palermo with an inscription upon it to the following
effect :—" Enough, and more than enough." Of
course all official reports continue to state that the
country enjoys the most profound tranquillity, but
the tranquillity is that of the worm which is writh-
ing under the heel of the strong man. Moro re-
cent reports state that the peasantry about Palermo
had been disarmed, that the sale of saltpetre had
been prohibited, and that gunpowder shops and.
magazines had been closed. On these reports you
may depend, but the precautions which are
taken, while they show the apprehensions which
are entertained by the Government, will not de-
feat the object of the people if they resolved
upon any movement. As to gunpowder, the Si-
cilians have abundant materials, and are well ac-
quainted with the mode of making it. Before
1848 the manufacture and the sale of it were not
Government monopolies, and the Sicilians have
not lost the knowledge of an art which is likely to
become so useful to them. Thus, to go no
further back than the beginning of the reign of
the" inexperienced" Sovereign who rules this coun-
try, we have not had ono conciliatory act, but a
series of irritating and oppressive measures, which
have goaded the peopla into madness. If we return
to Naples, the report of what daily passes is pre-
cisely the same.
A list, on which I can depend, now lies before me
of 57 persons imprisoned in Santa Maria Apparente
alone on political suspicion. Their names, sur-
names, country, date of arrest, occupation, and
causes of arrest aro all appended, so that I am in-
viting your belief to no old wives' story. The oldest
prisoner among them is 87 years of age, and was
arrested in 1850; nine were arrested in MG, five
in 1857, and the others at various times later. Not
one of them has been tried. For one year the
British and ForAgn Ministers have laboured for
their liberation, but instead of producing any change
in their position, the number has been from time to
time increased. Eight more persons are to be sent
off in relegation to the island of Capri, I believe, this
week, and in all probability a scene will be enacted
similar to the one I described in my last letter. By
the by, it is currently stated that that disgraceful
act was committed by Ajossa out of pique towards
Mr. Elliott for having shown him up and destroyed
his expectations by his able and manly correspon-
dence. Indeed, few have any doubt that, had it
not been for the untimely publication of that cor-
respondence, the director Ajossa would by this time
have been gazetted as Minister. The public feeling
against Ajossa is as strong as it can be well imagined,
and the surprise is not less strong that Princes Cas-
saro, Prince Comitini, and Signor Gamboa, three
really honest men, should have consented to en-
danger their reputations by virtually sanctioning
the illegalities and ferocities of the Director o.
Police.

That there is a schism in the Ministry I have
already informed you, but that fact by no means
affects its existence, as the duty of a Neapolitan
Minister is only to register and subscribe the orders
" of our Lord the K ng." Though, therefore, the
members composing the Ministry may represent all
the culaurs of the political rainbow, still they may
go on opposing and neutralising each other until it
pleases his Majesty to remove them. There was a
very pretty scene occurred in the Council a few days
since. First, there was an angry discussion ; then a
tempest arose, and Signor Rosica, a man who in an
age and a mass of corruption is marked for his
honesty,t hus addressed Ajossa :—" God has not given
you talent for the post which you occupy, and, while
thinking that you do well, you are doing just the
contrary, and increasing daily the enemies of the
Government." The attack was made in the pre-
sence of the King, but hitherto has produced no re-
sults, for Ajossa flourishes, and his system is in

aoubllyuldB of " Apbstres," arid other'self-sacrificing
offices, will be performed at Portici.

Three Cabinet Messengers—Castelli, Giannini,
and Bezzi—left Naples with despatches last Satur-
day, one directed to Turin, Paris, and London ;
another to Munich and Berlin, and a third to Vienna
and St. l'ersburg.. It is scal-Liscd that they were
the bearers of protests against the annexation of
Tuscany and Parma, over which this family affects
to have some hereditary rights. Robert, the ex-
Duke of Parma, is a Bourbon, and one of the titles
of the Monarch of this country is Grand Duke of
Tuscany. Protests are, however, but paper pellets
now-a-days, and might well have been spared,
especially in such a cause. It certainly would be
no additional motive to the populations of those
Duchies to return to their allegiance to their late
Sovereigns that the Bourbons of Naples held certain
reserved rights to the sovereignty of those States.
I see no disposition here to introduce the slightest
change in the government of the country, and, in
fact, the best that could be desired for this country
is an increase of excesses. Mere palliatives, tem-
porary cessations from illegality and brutality, will
prove only delusions. We must come to principles,
and so long as the present dynasty occupies the
throne of the Two Sicilies, the constitution, and
that of 1848, is the only remedy for ills which
must continue so long as there are no clucks on
Sovereign caprices. I have said the constitution of
1848, because that is the "legal state," and has
never been officially abolished, and because, as the
granting of that constitution was doubtless commu-
nicated to the several Governments of Europe, it is
that constitution which is recognised by the Sove-
reigns through their Ministers. Of course, the
Royalists say that the people are not ripe for such
a measure, and so they have said since 1820, and so
will they say to 1920, while they take not one single
step, but just the contrary, to prepare them for the
exercise of new privileges. Yet Northern and Central
Italy and various other parts of Europe hold nearly
600 Neapolitan exiles, of whom a list of 200 or
thereabout, distinguished by their talents lies before
nip. My list contains the names of 12 ex-Ministers,
32 ex-Deputies, 26 military men, 35 professors with
degrees, 3 magistrates, 16 proprietors, 29 civil em-
ploies, and many of the nobility. Of course, it is
possible to exhaust the wealth of a country, and
then exclaim, " See how poor it is ;" but the men
whose names I see before me are enriching and
(teeming other parts of Italy by their talents, and
some of them have been elected as Deputies to the
new Italian Parliament. How much might they
have contributed to the glories of their own country!
Power is, however, very dear, and the stick and the
dungeon will not willingly be abandoned as instru-
ments of government. Since writing I haveheard
of more arrests, and among them of a lady. It is
perfectly true that, as I assured you, not one, but
several, if not all, of those who were "relagati" to
Capri the other day had their wrists bound so tight
that the impression remained a long time after.
I send you a list of the prisoners in Santa Maria
Apparente upon which you may depend. It may
be worth publication, and if it be given to the world
it will have an opportunity of seeing in what manner
justice is administered in this country :

THE RET Tr, i PISSENSIONS IN Sl
L GL" S-1X- THE-EA ST.

RENEWAL OF DISTURBANCES.
Yesterday was selected for a renewal of disturb
antes in the parish church of St. Gcorgc's-in-the-
East.

Although the service yesterday morning was
very much •disturbed, it was left for last night to
witness a series of the most disgraceful outrages
ever perpetrated, we should imagine, in any church.
The conduct of the mob was perfectly fiendish, but
it certainly was not entirely without provocation.
At the morning service the gates were kept closed
until ten minutes after the usual time. the church-
wardens themselves being denied admission, and in
the evening the same course was repeated, some
hundreds of persons, professing to be parishioners,
being kept out in the rain until 20 minutes to seven,
while persons who avowedly had no connection with
the parish were allowed to pass through the pri-
vate gate of the rectory into the church. The con-
sequence was that when the crowd was admitted
the excited people rushed in in the worst possible
humour, and began howling and yelling with all
their force. Nor were they rendered less pacific
when their eyes were attracted to the gaily deco-
rated altar. It was covered with a white cover
filled with crosses and emblematical devices, and
surmounted by a number of crosses of various sizes,
formed of red roses, white roses, and red and white
roses mixed. There were also vases of flowers on
the altar. Over the quasi alter hung the chande-
lier, at which hassocks, prayer books, and bibles
were freely thrown on a previous Sunday evening.
On this occasion it had two circles of wax candles,
altogether about 32 in number, festooned with
evergreens, and red and white roses. About 10
minutes after the riotous congregation had been
admitted a white-robed chorister cane forth from
the vestry, and with a long rod with a taper at-
tached began to light the candles. This was the
signal for a tempest which it is needless to de-
se: ibe, for it was of precisely the same eharacte,
as that which has been so often reported. It was
so intense, however, that the churchwarden was
sent for, and accordingly went to the vestry room.
At ten minutes past seven, the churchwarden (Mr.
W. J. Thompson) came out of the vestry room, and
approaching the altar, evidently in a very excited
state, exclaimed to the people, who were crowding
round the altar, "Take your seats !" The mob
shouted, " Where ?" to which Mr. Thompson re-
plied, " Anywhere !" About 40 or 50 people at once
broke into the altar. A gentleman named Adams,
who has for a long time past taken au active part
in favour of the rector and his party, rushed to the
altar gates, to preserve that part of the sanctuary
from further invasion, and being a powerful and
determined young man succeeded to a great extent
in accomplishing his object. His triumph, however,
was of the most short-lived character, for two po-
lice-constables and a parochial officer, named But-
ton, acting under the direction of the churchwarden,
hurled him from his post of defence, and he was
summarily ejected from the church. Mr. Thompson
then went within the rails and cleared the intru-
ders. It was now about 20 minutes past 7, and a
passage having been made through the mob, a pro-
cession of priests and choristers moved from the
vestry-room
,door towards the altar. Two of the
choristers fought their way to the rails, but the
whole of the other choristers, with Mr. Bryan King,
the rector, Mr. Dove, the curate, and Mr. McDouall,
the appointed preacher, were hemmed in by the
crowd (who were labouring under the deepest ex-
citement), and then driven back in the most insult-
ing manner to the vestry. Meanwhile, it appeared
that Mr. Thompson had previously to the irruption
upon the altar had an interview with the rector,
who insisted that he should find sittings for the
congregation,a task which, under the circumstances,
it was obviously impossible to accomplish. At half-
past seven o'clock another attempt was made by the
priests and choristtrs to get to their places, in order
to commence the service, and this time they were
more successful. After a struggle which did in-
finite credit to their perseverance, Mr. Dove,
Mr. McDouall, and the choristers, made their
way to the altar, and Mr. King to the reading-
desk, his ascent to which was the signal for another
display of howling, yelling, hissing, and slamming
of pew doors. Amidst a succession of similar inter-
ruptions, he went on with the service until he came
to " the Belief," when he turned round to the altar,
with his back to the congregation, displaying his
M.A. hood turned out, displaying red alone. This
was the signal far a fearful row, during which the
police, who had long odds to contend against,
turned several people out of the church, these being
the principal offenders. When Mr. Bryan King
descended from the desk there was more howling,
and this process was renewed when the Rev. Mr.
M•Douall went into the pulpit. There was a loud
shout that he wore a huge cross upon his back, but
this was a slight mistake, inasmuch as the simple
adornment was a white fur university hood, one
without any red about it. The rev, gentleman se-
lected for his text the 17th chapter of the Acts of
the Apostles, verses 30 and 31—" And the times of
this ignorance Geld winked at, but now conimandeth
all men everywhere to repent : because he hath ap-
pointed a day in the which he will judge the woad
in righteousness by that man whom he hath or-
dained ; whereof he hath given assurance unto all
men, in that he hath raised him from the dead."
The preacher got on very well until he made some
particularly direct references to the congregation,
which were not considered complimentary. He
stated that for 11 months past the church in which
they were assembled had been the scene of awful
sacrilege, that it was a monument of shame to peni-
tent worshippers, that the clergy had been sub-
jected to persecution, malice, and spite, and that if
the people continued in this course God's judgments
would surely fall upon them. These admonitions
and reproofs were, however, evidently thrown away.
The Easter Hymn, " Jesus Christ is risen to-day,"
which was sung by the choir after the sermon, was
travestied by the congregation with filthy pro-
fanity.
As the rector and his staff left the altar for the
vestry a violent outrage was committed upon them,
and it will be no matter of surprise to hear that
some of them have been seriously injured. So
savage was the conduct of the mob who at-
tacked them, that Mr. Superintendent Howie,
who had been waiting outside, rushed in with a
large body of police, and having first guarded the
altar furniture, succeeded in course of time in clear-
ing the church, many parts of which have suffered
serious injury. Some hundreds of persons after wards
amused themselves by walking about the neighbour-
hood, singing, with more strength than harmon v or
propriety, the Doxology. And so—happily it was
no worse—ended Easter Sunday in St. George's-in.

Mr. W. J. Thompson has consented to act as
churchwarden for another year. TI;.. (:‘,ll,:gue will

REPAIRS' IN 1111 E NAVY.

It was stated by the Surveyor of the Navy, in
a report of th committee appointed by the Trea-
sury to inquire into the Navy Estimates, that at
the end of 15 years, on an average, the hull of
each ship in the navy requires a complete and ex.-
tensi‘-e repair. And further, that the duration of
a ship of year cannot be estimated at more than 30
years. The Surveyor took for his guidance the
average of the 10 years from 1849 to 1859, when
35 ships of the line and 46 frigates were removed
from the effective list of the navy. We much fear
that none of our " converted' ships, nor indeed
any of our finest specimens of naval architecture,
will stand the wear and tear for the periods assigned
to them by the Naval Surveyor ; and it is supposed,
when he made the above statements, he alluded
to the duration of sailing ships only, for we have
had a few warnings lately as to the future fate of
our Victories, Howes, Duncans, and Diadems, bythe introduction of steam into ships of war. Il,e
have found that, instead of requiring a complete
repair once in 15 years only, as many months
are sometimes sufficient to send a ship into dock.
The rapid manner in which the navy has been re-
constructed in some degree accounts for this pre-
mature decay, in consequence of the unseasoned
timber which has been so extensively used, and
which, from the limited supply in hand, could not
well have been avoided; but, in addition to the use
of indifferent materiel, we must reckon upon our
steam ships of wet boeorning rotten sooner than
our sailing ships did, in consequence of the heat
produced by the volcanic fires we put into them.
Shipwrights know to a plank where to "prick" for
rotten wood in a steamship. With unerring pre;
cision they try her just in the'' wake of the boilers,
where the alternations of heat and cold are the
greatest, and which are sufficient to destroy the best
seasoned timber.. It is in these places that steam'
ships require repairs oftenest. There is, however,
another destructive power that disables a steamship
of war in a very marked manner, and that is the
" shake of the screw." Long-continued screw pro-
pulsion at full speed soon tells a tale. We have
had indications in the Princess Royal, 91, now
under repair at Portsmouth, of the destructive
effects of the vibratory motion of the screw. Site
has been almost rebuilt abaft, after having passed
through one commission only. It is said, also, in
confirmation of this, that the whole of the Chan-
nel fleet is leaky, and that the Royal Albert, the
flag ship, will require a thorough caulking. When
we remember how recently this ship was built
and commissioned these reports are by no means
satisfactory. Judging, therefore, from the ex-
perience to be derived from the few years the
,t screw" has been in the navy, we must expect to
find defects in the " deal-wood" of all our ship?,
which is subject to the cross strain it receives in
passing through a body of water in a state of per-
turbation. Of course other naval Powers will have
the same destructive elements to contend with se
ourselves. Indeed, we happen to know that the vibra-
tion in some French line-of-battle ships greatly ex-
ceeds that of our best ships. The Emperor, how-
ever, aims at speed ; he knows its importance M
well as we do. But to obtain this very desirable
quality in screw ships of war, he must be prepared
to do as we do, and that is to anticipate a very
serious increase in his navy estimates under the .
