THE POLITICAL TRIALS IN NAPLES.

SALERNO, FEB. 3.

The proceedings of the court, which had been
suspended for a day, were resumed again on Mon-
day, Feb. 1.
'Some delay again occurred in cons .quence
of the de`erraination of Watt not to appear. The
fact is that his mind has been so broken down by
suffering and long confinement that ho is iu a stAte*
of agitation bordering up-in madness. Since the
commencement of the trial he has slarcely slept,
and his companions ri present him as walking up
and down the rooms all the night, and conducting
himself with much violence. The Acting-Coneul
would not, therefore, give his perrnioi,n that any
force stern 14 be exorc'sed to compel his attendance,
lest it mig it drive Lim into positive f enzy. Suc4
is the state to which Watt is re ;aced. He was
again rep-rted ill, and the cause proueded.
Before any oni of the acmsed, however, hal been
called, Signor D. Francesca, one of the advoc.tes
of the crew of the Cagliari, rose, and begged 'hat
a diary of events kept from the day of the departure
from Genoa till the lauding in Sapr', and found on
the body of one of the killed, might be shown t
Nicotera ; it was important to assert Ain in whose
hlndwriiing it wa.s, snd Nicotera, it was thougY,
might anew, r that po n'.
The motive of the demand was as follows. It was
believed that this record of events conta'netl a ma-
ternal and strong exculpation of the captain and
crew, by the •p issengen. It was hel:eved that the
his au'oraph
writing was that of Pisacln • and

S:gnor D. Franocs7a ros3 and said that both fact
and law w: ra in his favour. As a fa3t, this Pr ,cu-
rator-General, in gett'ir4 up t:ie accusation, had
ava'le I himself coutinually of the depoz:itions of
one against another ; and would the law he less in-
dul‘ent is ftvour of the accused ? A nrunb,zr of
other pipers found on the persons a'zetried had bc.'n
presented for the mill° htion of the handwriting to
NicAera ; and why s'loul I nit this I I pzrsist in
urging my deurind.
The judges retired to del bcra'.e, an I shortly re-
turned, announcing that by a majority of six votes
the demand had been rejected.
Thug, in the opinion of all in court, another
gross illegality has lo.en committed.
