MAZZINI ON SLAVERY.

The following letter from Mazzini, says the Ye°
YFlcTribune, was received a few days ago by the
principal of a private school in the vicinity of 00,
city :

" London, March 21, 1859.
" Dear Sir,—l beg to apologise for being so lute in arc:
knowledging the receipt of 112 dols. 9c., subscribed by 3;32:
and others at the end of the lectures delivered at your In..
my friend I‘ldine. Jessie White Mario, tovrara°
our
sti t
Italiannti e by
school, &c.
,6 I am very much pleased at my honoured friend's fire
success and response to her efforts in the United Stateat
coming from Young America, to whom Young Italy 100 h.l
for sympathy and support in her approaching
struggle, an
my thanks are the thanks of all the members, both teacher°,
and pupils, of our Italian school.
"We are fighting the same sacred battle for freedom and
the emancipation of the oppressed—you, sir, against a nog?
we against white slavery. The cause is truly identical ;'c'rf
depend upon it, the day in which we shall succeed in bind-
ing to one freely accepted pact 26,000,000 of Italians, '97:
shall give, what we cannot now, an active support to rho
cause you pursue. We are both servants of the God °lll
says, before Me there is no master no slave, no mall' 110
woman, but only human nature, which must be everyivne—
,,
responsible, therefore free.
" May God bless your efforts and ours 1 May the dtThr
soon arise in which the word bondage' will disappear I
our living languages, and only point out a historical ree,er",,
And, meanwhile, let the knowledge that we, all combatant
under the same flag, through time and space, commune...A
love and faith, strengthen one another against the unavoo-
able suffering which we must meet on the way.
" Believe me, my dear sir; very gratefully yours,-
" JOSEPH MAZZINI."

STATE OP TRADE IN FRANCE.—in the present
state of political affairs business is at a complete standstill,
and no one thinks of entering on any commercial under-
taking. The only manufaktories that are actively employed
are those which are connected with military equipments ;
all others are doing nothing, although the present month is
one in which business is generally brisk. The retail trade
labours under the same depression, and purchases are re-
stricted to the wants of daily consumption. Those branches
of trade which produce articles of luxury continue in a very
depressed condition, the dead season with them having now
lasted several months. At Lyons the manufacturers, who
have during the last two months been pretty well occupied
on orders for abroad, are now again in a dull state, the Paris
market supplying them with little or nothing to do. At
Rouen also business has become slack. The market for
raw cotton at Havre has been heavy, but no very material
change has taken place in prices. Raw sugar in the Paris
market has slightly declined, but refined sugar maintains its
price. Oil continues looking up, with a limited amount of
business,
