From Sioiiy.-Wo learn by the Francia, from
Messna that an unsuccessful attempt TO create a
revolution in Sicily, made the night Of the

know how Southern friends will be able to
resist so frank and candid appeal to their com

already distinguished in the literary world and
to whose reputation statesman this Letter
cannot fail to add. He deserves, we think, the
thanks of the country for this well-tmcd overture
TO his Southern friends 1t is ofcourse not at all
tinctured by party feeling.
We would mention one fact here, which was
brought to our notice from the Journals of Congress
yesterday, and which shows of how very recent
date is this horror of Manufacturers in Congress-
or in the South. The House of Representatives
had, some years ago, among its standing commit.
toes, committee ''on Commerce and Manuiac-
lures" The warm friends of Manufactures did
not approve of this conjunction, because Nanufac-
lures were not sufficiently favored by that commit
tee; and 6y-a vote of the House. after debate they
were disJoined and separate Standing Commit
tee has been over since appointed for each ofthose
interests. That motion made and carried

for Mr.. and Mrs. Eaton. On being told that

In reply to this, the Telegraph said that Mr.
Evans, not married till six months after the

left with his ''wife." This certainly at first look

piled by the Globe. The Telegraph now asserts
that this Rev. gentleman, was resident of the
City, in it at that time, and of course could
not certify any thing but upon the information OF
others, and yet his certificate is so worded, as to
convey the idea that he present, and knew the
facts. The Revd gentleman being thus caught
tdgrante deticto, has written letter TO the Editor
of the Telegraph, begging for quarter. For cor
