THE LATE CONSPIRACY•

The Gazette des Tribunaax has the following :--
"We have announced that, after an investigation
made with great care, the examining magistrate
seven persons, on the charge of participation in a
had sent before the chambre des raises en accusation
riot for the assassination of the Emperor. The
chamber des mines en accusation yesterday decided
that these seven persons—Tibaldi, Bartolotti, Grilli
alias Faro, Mazzini, Ledru-Rollin, Massarenti, and
Campanella—sball be brought to trial before the
Court of _Assizes of the Seine. The four last-named
accused are absent ; but the whole seven are to be
tried on the charge of having,
by a resolution con-
certed and settled between them, formed a plot to
assassinate the Emperor, the said plot having been
followed by an act committed or commenced for
preparing its execution, whic'a is a crime fore-
seen and punished by Article 89 of the Penal
Code. The trial of the three persons now in
custody is to come on, it is thought, about the
Bth or 10th of August. The accused who are

absent cannot be tried until after the accomplish-
ment of the formalities prescribed by the law with
respect to contumacious persons. We must await
the trial to make known all the c.rcunistances of
this grave affair, but we may nevertheless indicate
some of the general facts which form the basis of
the accusation. In the first days of June the
police learned that several Italians had arrived in
Paris from London, after having had frequent com-
munications with Mazzini and other members of
the Central European Committee. On the 10th
June three letters from Genoa written by Mazzini
were seized ; one was addressed to Campanella; one
of Mazzini's fellow-writers in the Italia del Popolo ;
another to Massarenti ; and the third, which was
only of a few lines, to Tibaldi. In the letter to
Campanella, Mazzini, after instructions which ap-
pear to refer to the coup-de-main which has been
attempted in Italy, said that the principal matter
to be thought of was the affair of Pavia—that it
was of urgent and decisive importance—and, in
fact, that everything depended on it. He an-
nounced that Massarenti had told him that two
men had presented themselves ; tbat if they were
good men and true, and could be depended on,
money to enable them to live a month at Paris
must be given them, and that to obtain the money
application should be made to a banker. He added
that there were two others at that moment at Paris,
but that it was necessary that each group should
act separately, and without communication with
the other. The letter concluded by a few words
of recommendation to the Rue Neuve M4nil-
montant,' where, it said, the necessary arms- and
ammunition would be found. The person alluded
to in these words of recommendation was Tibaldi,
who lived in the Rue de Mdnilmontant. He was
arrested, and a search being made in his house,
five poinards and twenty loaded pistols were
seized. The letter from Mazzini to Massarenti con-
tained instructions similar to those in the letter to
Campanella. As to the letter to Tibaldi, it tecom-
mended two men, who were to call on him, and
told him that he might place confidence in them.
These two men were Bartolotti and Grilli, who had
recently arrived from London, where they bad
frequent communications with Mazzini before his
departure for Genoa. On the day on which Tibaldi
was arrested, Bartolotti and Grilli called at his
lodgings, and were arrested by police officers who
had been placed there in waiting. It appears that
the investigation already made has led to the seizure
of numerous letters which confirmed the indica-
tions contained in the letters seized -on the
10th of June. In one of them a complaint
is made of the negligence of an accomplice,
and it is said that the old man' had com-
plained and was highly displeased. In the course
of the investigation Bartolotti made avowals—he
declared that at London he had had two inter-
views with Mazzini and with a Frenchman who
he said. was Ledru Rollin, and that it was in con-
sequence of these interviews that he had been
sent to Paris with his countryman Grilli. His
mission, he said, was not to attempt to kill the
Emperor, but to be constantly on the watch about
the Tuileries in order to know when the Emperor
went out. Gr;lli at first denied the truth of these
revelations, but he afterwards, it is stated, re-
marked that since Bartolotti had spoken he was
relieved from his oath, and would tell all. He
accordingly admitted that the object of his journey
was to attempt the Emperor's life. To prove the
truth of his statement he said that two poniards
which Tibaldi had given him for himself and Bar-
tolotti would be found secreted in a certain spot
which he indicated ; and they were accordingly
found there. As to Tibaldi, he gives the most po-
sitive denials to the charges brought against him.
He is a journeyman engineer, and has resided in
Paris for some years." The Droit, after giving
some particulars on the same subject, says
" Bartolotti and Grilli, though at first admitting
that they came to Paris with the mission of killing
the Emperor, subsequently declared that, notwith-
standing their promise, they had no intention of
committing the crime ; that, being without money
or resources, they had accepted the propositions
made, but their sole object was to come to Paris,
and to spend in pleasure the money which they had
received."—The same journal states that among
the arms seized were 17 double-barrelled pistols,
one of which was of a very peculiar form, the bar-
rels being placed one over the other, and not lying
side by side, as is usually seen. It is this arm whicia
is gentrally supposed to be the fellow of the pistil
used by Pianori when he fired at the Emperor in
the Champs-Elysees.
