The TuscanTlionltore of the 22d gives a full de-
scription of the funeral procession which accompanied the
body of the great tragic poet G. B. Niccolini to the grave.
It took place by torchlight, and was composed, of people
, from every corner of Italy. The corners of the pall were
held by Marquis Bartolommei, Gonfaloniere of Florence;
the Abbe Lambruschini, Senator; Prince Ferdinand
Strozzi, President of the Academy of Fine Arts ; and the
Chevalier Brunone Bianchi, pro-secretary of the Academy
of La Crusca. The Municipal Council, Marquis Ridolfi,
President of the Exhibition, the Professors of the Facul-
ties, and other distinguished personages immediately fol
lowed the hearse, and the streets through which the pro-
cession passed was lined with national guards. At the
church of Santa Croce, where the last funeral rites were
performed, Professor Atto Valued read an appropriate
speech.
