ITALY.

Letters from Naples of the 16th silt. represent the
state of that kingdom as horrible. The Government
of King BOMBA is an organized perjury, and a royal
amnesty is a mere decoy to lure persons to destruc-
tion. General NIINZIAriTE, the Commander in the
Calabrias, recently published a proclamation
in the name of his beloved and most merciful
Sovereign, calling npon those who had,taken flighton
account of political offences to return, and promising
them that no notice should be taken of the past.
Several unfortunate persons, not remembering the
faithless character of the Bourbons, and trusting to
the promises of King Beaus, returned and became
the victims of this diabolical ruse. Within two days
after their return 82 persons were arrested in Cala-
bria, and 37 in Naples, and were thrust into dun-
geons, where the torturer and the poisoner and the
assassin, all important members of the Executive
Government of Naples are doing their office on them.
One unfortunate youth has just expired in the dun-
geon of Vicaria from consumption in consequence of
having been exposed all the winter to the punishment
called "of the chosen.' He was kept in a dungeon
for seven months, and was allowed as his sole food
eight ounces of bread per day and as much water as
he could drink. His dungeon was thirty feet below
the level of the soil, he was allowed neither light nor
fire, nor straw to lie on, ar.d during the most rigorous
nights of winter his tormentors would throw on
him at intervals buckets of iced water. His
mother who is 80 years of age, and who resides at a
distance, undertook a long and perilous journey
through the Abruzzi for the purpose of seeing her
son before his death. The goaler refused her permis-
sion, referring her to the Minister of the Interior.
She at once applied to the Minister, and at the end of
three days she received the following answer to her
communication :

" Madam,—Your pres-nce in the capital compromises
order and public tranquillity. You are granted 24
hours to quit Naples. if you do not obey you will be
accompanied from post to post by Gensdarmes.
" Naples, 7th February, 1850."
The unfortunate mother, on reading this note, fell
into a cataleptic fit, and her life is despaired of ; in
vain her relatives applied for a postponement of the
period fixed for her departure, and the dying woman
was, in an insensible state, expelled from Naples by
the authorities. Comment upon these atrocities is
needless ; the blood of these and of many hundred other
victims calls out to Heaven for justice against the
oppressor, and will not long call in vain, upon Him
who has declared himself peculiarly the avenger of
the wrongs of the widow and the orphan.

spot, and Town 38s 6d.
TEA.—The market is steady, and with fair deliveries
for consumption.
TonAcco.—Purchases were generally of a more
limited character during the last month, arising in a
great measure from old imports of certain descriptions
having gradually almost approached the quotations of
new (a parcel of Kentucky strips, of very old imports,
and in questionable condition having been sold at 70),
and not from any disinclination on the part of the specu-
lators to continue their operations. Sales have, never-
theless, amounted to 1,800 hhds, exclusive of upwards
of 200 hhds, sold by "middle men." We have been
compelled to alter several of our quotations, more espe-
cially flu* spinning strips; sales having been made ut
Sid; and all classes of Western strips, for which we
quote an advance of id to id per lb. Holders of the
finest parcels of the present import are asking 9id with-
out showing any indication of au abatement from this
price; we may observe that this quality of strips is not
suitable for manufacturing Shag to sell at 3s 4d per lb. I
Stock, 25,647 hhds, against 25,253 hhds, in 1849.

DET ERMIMED SUlClDE.—Yesterday, a person named
Vincent, who lodged in the house of Mrs. Wells, a
tobacconist, who carries on bubiness at 35, Regent-street,
Westminster, committed suicide by shooting himself
through the head with a pistol. The barrels of the
weapon burst upon the discharge taking place, and in-
flicted frightful injuries upon the upper portion of his
person. His death was almost instantaneous; and it is
stated that the condition of mind which led him to com-
mit the rash act was produced by long-continued suffer-
ing from illness.
