amelioration. Many families, who were few years
since in the enjoyment of moderate resources, are
now in actual want. This is easily accounted for,
as persons having taken ever so slight part in the
/ republic have been dismissed from all government
situations, and Rome being les gay, the bulk of tho
population, who live by the prodgay of tho great,
know not how to earn penny. The Roman capital
is, however, very tranquil, and stranger would to

The Concrete Of Cadiz states that, according to
the last accounts from the Havana, the authorities
there were in expectation of another attempt al
invasion. 1t was said there that force of 6OOC

Thomas Moore's memory is not to be unhonored
in Ireland. II is proposed to lay his remains, says
the Dublin Nation, IN Irish earth. Ireland is will

place his dust beside that Of OConnell and Curran
We shall not be so ungenerous to protest against
the proposal Of the Dublin Cemeteries committee
to give him an Irish grave. Let him sleep in Gas-
nevn; though the strict canons Of patriotism would
forbid such honors because Of his doserton Of Ire
land and his infdelty to his own fame. We must
make large allowances for the dead bard. In the
same spirit, il is determined to have in this city
| general musical festival in honor Of his genius
The fttest tribute to him, indeed, is requiem OF
/ his own immortal melodies.
