SICILY►

COMPULSION TO BE JUDGES.
PALERMO, OCTOBER U.

•Tha following dispatch of the Secteeary of State to
the Lieutenant-General of Sicily has been published in
the Sicilian Mercury :
" Signore,—From your dispatch of the 14th ult. I
have learnt that D. Gioachimo Lenzitti and D. Anto.
nino Rossi, appointed to the functions of supplementary
judges in the Chamber of Commerce, have refused•to
undertake such a charge ; the fk.rmer alleging •ague
excuses, and the latter bad health.

4g I have not been able to see, without great displea-
sure, a refractoriness which, in both cases, I know to
be founded on no reason, in the face of the positive dar
mage which commercial affairs suffer fiom the dell=
ciency of members in the college destined to decide on
them. This abuse, of persons exempting themselves
from particular offices, probably reckoned of no utility
to their private interests, is scandalous in su' jects, who
ought to obey the supreme will of their King, and to
advance the service of his Majesty in the society of which
they form a part. Hence all those who, from indolence
or disaffection, refuse the high honour which his Ma-
jesty confers upon them in thinking them worthy of his
confidence, and who wish to enjoy the blessings which
the Sovereign and the laws confer upon the State with-
out submitting on their part to suffer any of its burdens,
render themselves for ever unworthy of any considera-
tion from his Majesty.
gg Submit these considerations to the notice of the
abovenamed persons, and at the same time announce to
them that their alleged reasons not being sufficient to
obtain the desired exemption, they must immediately,
under:ake the discharge of the office with which hi'
Majesty has been pleased to honour them, and that they
are responsible for all the consequences which the scut
vice of the. King, the public interest, and the course of
commercial business may suffer, either from their cart-
cious delay in commencing their active ditties, or fritn9
their negligence in filling the office which has been 'Con-
.
ferred upon them.
