GENERaL PEpE.

The London Courier, of April 90.
publishes the following passages from a
letter of Gen. Pope, to the Neapolitan
nation. written anteriour to his depar-
ture from the Neapolitan territory
1t was sent from Paris, in manuscript, to
the editor of the Courier, who affects
to doubt its authenticity -
Neapolitans, | am almost ashamed
to call you countrymen, after all you
have done and all have suffered. I
have ne language to express the detes-
tation, in which hold the conduct of
those who have guided your councils in
the late eventful period, or the disgust
| feel at the baseness Of your conduct
on every occasion when the enemy
made his appearance. You fled, you
deserted, you submitted; and submitted
upon the terms of the conqueror
and this, too, in the face of all your
protestations, of all your pretended en-
thusiasm for liberty and independence"
Had you made stand when resist
ance was SO possible, and victory so
probable, how different would have
been your situation and mine-how diff
ferent the situation of the civilized
world ? The fame of liberty would
have spread from the peninsula of Italy
into the north; and those very Govern
ments that were the means of your SUBJ
Jugation, might themselves have been
compelled to grant a Constitution to
their subjects. tits not only who am
disappointed, it is all mankind-alI men
who have spark of generosity in their
bosoms; and, let me add, that, even
among yourselves, / know there are
many who bitterly grieve over past
events, that never can be remedied or
recalled. The opportunity is past, and
all Europe thrown century back in the
acquisition of freedom by your treach-
cry and pusillanimity."

PINE APPLE CHEESE.

ofstrong rennet, and piece Of Spanish annette.
the size of large pea, were then put into the
tub. After it had stood half an hour, the curd
was well formed; it was then crossed with a
wooden knife. Half an hour after, the curd
was gently broken by hand, and in half an
hour more was noheyed off, as it is termed. The
curd appeared well-'he whey thin and of
greenish colour, which is always desirable.
The curd was then scalded in whey. Two
hours after we put into the curd three table
spoonfuls Of fine salt, and one tea spoonful of
salt petre. The curd was next put into bag
with the net outside, and then placed in the
mould; the form of which is nearly that Of an
inverted cone, The screw press was now ap-
piled, gently at first, and increased through the
day. At eight o'clock in the evening, the
cheese was taken out of the mould, the net and
bag taken off, the net then put next to the
cheese, and the bag outside the cheese, thus
covered was put into the mould again, and
pressed with increased force until next day at
IL o'clock. It was then taken out, and was
found to have been well pressed the meshes
of the net had made deep and handsome i'm
preston. The cheese was then hung up in the
Cheese Room, in the pet, but without the bag.
Ten days afterwards, the net was taken off,
the cheese wiped every day for six weeks, and
rubbed with the following preparation -

parts. A common saucer fun when melted. TO

The cream was taken this morning from the
milk Of last night, and this mornings milk add
ed to the milk just skinned, making together
five and one half gallons, which was then strain
ed into clean brass kettle, and warmed to 90
degrees BY Farenheit's thermometer; il was
then put into the cheese tuba piece of rem
net of the usual thickness, one inch and one
quarter square, penny weight fourteen grains
of salt-petre, (Which, when fine, filed the bowl
OF common tea spoon level with the top) and
one grain and a half of Spanish annette, "a
piece the size of a common pea we're put into
the milk; which stood an half hour. till the
curd rose and was fit for crossing, when it was
crossed with wooden knife used for that pur-
pose. 1t was then left 25 minutes longer.
when the whey was separated from the curd,
and it was broken up by hand. After il had
settled, the whey was taken off gradually. The
curd was then scalded in whey; after which it
was chopped quite fine, and two table spoons
full of fine salt sprinkled over it. And it was
then pat into the cheese hoop, and pressed very
gradually at first but as soon as the rind had
formed, the power of the press was increased,
by applying heavier weights to the lever.
This cheese, when taken from the press, was
put in the cheese room, turned every day,
wiped clean, and once every week, for six
weeks, rubbed with fresh butter.
1t was cut in the month of January, 1903,
and proved very good.

!" Sketches" Add It Is stated IN the
" Life Of Curran," that Emmett even
owed his apprehension and death to the
ardency of his attachment. On the de-
lection of his second conspiracy, in 1903,
of which he was the mover, the means
of his escape were abundantly in his
power; but he fingered near the abode
of Miss Curran, and was at length dis
covered and unprecedented. A few mo-
ments before his execution, he address
ed letter to the son of Mr.. Curran, of
which the following is an extract -
:" If there was any one in the world, in
whose breast my death might be supposed not
to stiie every spark Of resentment, it might
be You. have deeply injured you'll have
injured the happiness of sister that you love,
and was formed to give happiness to every

most ardent love could have given her.

opportunity of our union, might be the means

lips of no man; but would have wished to
read in the glow of SaIah's coantenance that

ROBERT EMMETT.
This was written at twelve o'clock
on the day of Mr.. Emmet's execution ];
and the 6rmness and regularity of the
original handwriting, contain striking
and affecting proof of the little influ-
ence which the approaching event ex-
'erted over his frame. The same enthu-
siasm which allured him to his destiny,
enabled him to support its utmost rigour.
He met his fate with unostentatious for
titude; and although few could ever
think of justifying his projects or re-
GREETING their failure; yet, his youth,
his talents, the great responsibility of
his connexions, and the evident delu-
sion of which he was the victim, have
excited more general sympathy for his
unfortunate end, and more forbearance
towards his memory, than is usually ex-
tended to the errours or suherings of
political offenders.

EXECUTION.

On Friday last, the lst inst pursuant
to their sentence, Manuel Philip Garcia,
and Joseph Demas Garcia Castillano,
were executed for the murder of Peter
Lagoardette.
At II O'clock they were conducted
from the Jail to the place of execution,
in the middle of a large field, in the
rear Of the town of Portsmouth. guard
ed by the Portsmouth Rifle Company,
and attended by the. Rev. Bishop Kelly,
and Mr.. Walsh,. of the. Roman Catho-
lick Church, and by DIR: Griffith, of the
Methodist Church, whose pieus offices
were charitably profered' to prepare
their minds for the awful fate which
awaited them-but there was no SEEM
ing desire on the part of the prisoners,
to profit by the prayers. SO fervently
offered up in their behalf. A request
made by the prisoners, that they might
be allowed to walk to the place of ex-
ecutiony was readily complied with,
and the cart prepared to convey them
drove on before. Arrived at the fatal
spot, the prisoners mounted the cart,
and the final preparations were made
for their exit DIR. Griffith then rose
and addressed the assembled multitude
with an appropriate and impressive ex-
hortation, concluding with prayer to
the throne of grace, for mercy on the
unhappy men,, about to suffer. At %
minutes past twelve, the cart drew off,
and they were launched into eternity
The crowd assembled TO witness this
awful spectacle, amounted to several
thousands.
The indifference and insensibility
manifested by these men, while await
ing the moment of their execution, and
the levity with which they treated the
proffers of spiritual aid in their perish
ing condition, were in strict accordance
with their demeancF on The day of their
execution. Whatever might have been
the inward workings Of their souls and
consciences at this trying period, it is
certain that they met their fate with a
GOODNESS and fortitude worthy of bet
ter occasion--as an instance of this,

THE BIIGHTED ROSEBUD.

A striking instance of precocity is furnished in
the following little piece, written by Caro-
line, daughter of the Rev. Charles Symonds,
who was born in f792, aud died at the ear
ly age of eleven. 1t was afterwards inscrib-
ed on her tomb.
SCARCE had the velvet lips imbib'd the dew,
And nature hail'd thee infant Queen of May
Scarce saw thy op'ning bloom the suns broad
ray,
And on the air its tender fragrance threw
When the north wind enamoar'd of thee grew,
And from his chilling kiss thy charms decay
Now droops thy head, now fades thy blushing
hue
No more the queen of flowers, no longer gay.
So blooms maid, her guardians health and
joy,
Her mind array'd in innoeency's vest
When suddenly, impatient to destroy,
Death clasps the victim to his iron breast.
She fades-the parent, sister, friend, deplore
The charms and budding virtues, now no more.
