We extract from correspondence further particu-
lars on the general state OF things in Tuscany and
the Madiais:-
"FLoRENcE, Jan. 2, 1853.
:" You are aware of the two new DEGREES, the first
OF which reestablshes the pain of death for crimes
ofpublc violence against the government and against
religion and the second authorizes the police to
from the ordinary tribunals These DEGREES were
published on the 18th November, and on the 18th, at
five o'clock A. NJ, Angiolo Guarducci was arrested,
he being still in bed his lodging searched, and him
self taken to the Nitrate where he has been for the
last fortnight.
1--WE have passed many happy hour during the
presence in our city Of so many dear brethren from
several cities; but the sun which shone for short
time WIS soon overloaded. Lord Roden went to see
Sd of November. Their faithful and always devoted
friend Mr.. c. saw Francis on the 9Th but some
days after, hearing that he was confined to his bed,
and wishing to see him, this consolation refused
him. Recent and severe orders only allowed one
visit month. Sir H. Buwer's interference, to
mitigate this order, was useless. We are aware
that since Mr. c. left, Madiais physical weakness
has been very great For several days he refused his
medicines and even his coffee and milk. On Satur-
day this gentleman returned to Voterra to see the
prsoncr-the time prefxed since his last visit being
expired"
During the stay Of the delegates in Tuscany,
q letter was addressed to them from the con-
yerted Italians in Florence, numbering altogether
$500 persons-partly in prison. and others at large,
vet unknown to the polce-co ngratulating them for
their noble mission in such good cause.

THE Tunnel. MAcHINE.-The following, from
the North adams Transcript, is the first and only
attempt we have seen to explain away the pregnant
silence OF the tunnel machine at the Hoosac noun
tanThe facts are that the rock is not yet blasted
away sufficiently to bring the machine up to the face
OF the rock at the tunnel, and cannot be with the
constantly progressing. The machine now stands
some way back from the tunnel against the ledge,
which has been left for little way for the purpose
OF having something to experiment upon bat it there
works to great disadvantage, and as it affords but
lust about face enough to cut full circle, it leaves
but slight shell on top, which the blasting breaks
down, rendering it troublesome. But the working
Of the machine is quite satisfactory, the directors
VIII be ready to show by practical demonstration,
TO committee Of the Legislature, whenever they
may see fit to visit it.

GENERAL PEnoE.-The transcript relates
the following Of tho President elect Shortly after
his nomination, he was called upon by party in.

country. An enormous fee was offered, far exceed
ing the average amount Of the Generals annual
receipts from his profession. Quick TO perceive

the professional prestige which he might bring to

pclon was enough to induce him ut once TO dismiss
lhe temptation, and decline the brilliant offer.

STOPPING TRAIN OF CARs-AN AMUSING
SCENE.-The Supervisors in the several towns
through which the Boston and Albany railroad passes
have recently levied tax upon the company for the
entire cost Of their road in this State This the COM
pany has refused to pay, and the parties contest
ing its legality in Court ofEquity ltappear- that
the tax collector of Schodack, not satisfied with the
tardy process Of law, undertook to bring about
speedy settlement by stopping the Saturday morning
train from Springfield, at the Scbodack Station. As
soon as the train reached the place, the collector
mounted the platform Of the first car, and, in on
audible tone of voice, said, d" Gentlemen, attach
this train-these cars are mine-men, block the
Wheels On giving this order some twenty-five OF
thirty persons set to work and placed bits of wood on
the rails between the wheels of the cars. While they
were engaged in obstructing the track, Mr.. Gray,
the Superintendent Of the company, in the name of
the company demanded the tax gatherer to show
his papers by which he assumed the right to stop
the United States mail. After some qnibbng, It
turned out that he had nothing of the kind and that
he had assumed the power Quite laughable scene
onsued The Superintendent directed his men to re-
move the distractions, and the tax gaherer called
upon every in the and on the ground to as

AT bed and board, by night or BY day, in joy

abroad--debt grim, gsunt and shadowy, falls
as an incumbrance. As no presence is too
sacred, no ground is too holy to deter the
memory of"bills and notes payable" from
taking immediate possession, SO no record is
so enlivening, no reminiscence more delicious
than the consciousness that debt has fallen

turist to allow these leaves to be swept away
by every wind that blows, and finally lost al
together. A wise horticulturist will diligent-
ly collect, from week to week, the leaves that
fall under each tree, and by digging them un-
der the soil about the roots, where they will
decay and enrich that soil, provide in the
cheapest manner the best possible food for
that tree. In certain vineyards in France,
the vines are kept in the highest condition by
simply buryng at their roots every leaf and
branch that is pruned off such vines, or that
falls from them at the end of the season.

How many emotions cluster around that
word. How full of sadness, and to us, how
full of sorrow it sounds. 1t is with US a con-
secrated word. We heard it once within the
year, as we hope never to hear it again. We
spoke il on an occasion, such as we hope never
to speak it again. 1t was in the chamber of
death, at the still hour Of nights noon. The
curtains to the windows were all closed, the
lights were shaded, and we stood in the dim
and solemn twilight, with others, around the
bed of the dying. The damps Of death were
on her pale young brow, and codness was
on her lips, as we kissed her for the last time
while living. Goodbye, my daughter, we
whispered, and Goodbye, father,' came faint
ly from her dying lips. We know not if she
ever spoke more, but Goodbye was the last
we ever heard Of her sweet voice. We hear
that last sorrowful word often and often as
we sit alone, busy with the memories Of the
past. We hear il in the silence of the night
