duration that of ls43, and threw the inhabitants

Rome md san Marine.

The miniature Republic OF San Marino having
in some manner aroused ecclesiastical suspicion or
ambition, such sinister reports of an intended oc-
cupation of their territory reached the Republican
authorities that they recently instructed their
agent at Rome, Count s., to demonstrate
upon the subject with the Austrian commander in
the legations Prince Lichtenstein The Count &c
cordingly left Rome, and was very politely re-
celved by the Prince, who invited him to stay
week, until he should have time to examine into
the affair. At the end of the period mentioned the
Prince informed Count s. that the Republic
of San Marine had in no way compromised itself
ON the late occurrences, and that the Austrian
forces so far from becoming the instruments OF an
arbitrary or illegal occupation, would lend the Re-
public their especial protection.
Return, therefore" concluded the Prince to
Rome, in perfect tranquility and when you arrive
there observe whether liberty and justice flourish
more under French or Austrian protection. The
extradition Of a criminal who had taken refuge in
the San Marinese Republic was demanded few
days ago by the Papal gend0Tmes. No difficulty
was made, and the maleiactor was brought down
to the frontier where, however, he stopped further
proceedings by pulling out an American passport
showing that he had acquired citizenship in the
United States. The San Marinese, upon this dis
covery, refused to give him up, and escorted him
back In safety to their mountain stronghold The
