Proclamation of Aossuth and Waz-
ZiMi.

We insert below the proclamations, purporting
to have been posted by KossUTH, and the Italian
Revolutionary Committee on the outbreak Of the
Milanese. In the confused account,so far receiv-
ed of this movement, tits difficult to to any
clear knowledge ofany part of the transaction.
Every journal that we have read implies doubt
as to the genuiness of these proclamation-or
suspicion that they may have been promulgated
at this time without authority. The reason of
this uncertainty is found in the apparent unmatu-
rity of the movement, so far as the intelligence
enables us to Judge of its nature and extent
While alsoit is the opinion of many, that the in
surrection has been suppressed, there are others,
equally well informed, who are not Of that opin-
ions
MAZZINT'S PROCLAMATION.
The following proclamation was posted all
over Milan, and has been spread in other parts of
Italy.
ITALIAN NATIONAL COMMITTEE.
Italians! Brothers!-Th mission of the Ma
tional Italian Committe is ended: your mission
brothers, utter to you is 'Insurrection;" to-mor-
row, minglng with the ranks of the people, we
aid YOU to maintain it.
Insurrecton! The moment matured, painted
for three long years. has arrived. Let us seize it.
Be not deceived by appearances; be not misled
bp the cowardly sophistries of hkewarm men.
The entire surface of Europe, from Spain to our
own land from Greece to holy. Poland, is vol
canic crust, beneath which sleeps lava which
will burst forth in torrents at the upheaving of
Italy. -Four years ago the insurrection ofSicily
was followed by ten European revolutions; twenty
European revolutions will follow yours-all bound
by one compact all sworn to one fraternal aim.
We have friends even in the ranks of the armies
who rule us; there are entire peoples whose
alarm-cry will answer to yours. The national
democracies of Europe form one organized camp,
vanguard of the great sarmy of the people, fear
not isolation. The initiative of Italy is the inita
tive of Europe. 81 ....-..-...-.- .=.
Insurrection! Sacred as the thought of coun-
try that consecrates it; strong in will and conse-
Grated energy as its aim, which is justice, anne
Iteration, and free fraternal life for ALL let it rise;
and convert martyrdom into victory. The thou
sands of victims who have fallen with the sacred
name of Italy on their lips deserve this at. our
hands Be it tremendous as the tempest on our
seas. Be AID it obstinate immovable as the Alps
which surround yeu. Between the Alps and the
extreme Sicilian sea are 25,ooo,ooo of us, and a
hundred thousand foreigners. tits the struggle
of moment if you do but will.
Insurrection! Let the grand word leap from

PRINCE DE JOiNVILLE AND MILE
MONTlJO.

At the time of the Spanish marriages, in
the autumn ol 1916, one of Louis Phillippe's IS
sons, either the Prince de Joinville or the
Due d Aumale, was in Madrid on business
connected with the alliance between the roy
al houses. He there became intimately ac-
quanted with Mile Montijo, and liaison
was the consequence. When he returned to
Paris it was understood that she was to fol-
low him, as soon as he could make the me-
cessary arrangements. The Prince, on his
return, it seems, found it impossible, or, at
least, judged it unwise, to bring the lady north
for he had probably remembered in the
meantime, that he was married man. He
wrote to her to that effect. She replied that
it was out Of the question for her to stay at
Madrid--that he must obtain her place at
the Tuilleries as lady of honor to one of the
princesses. She did not come, however, and
the affair ended here. Now a copy of the
Princes letter to Mile de Monti,o, and the
original of her reply were thrown out of the
window of Louis Phllippe's library in the
Tuilleries, when that palace was sacked by
the mob in February. A vast quantity OF
curious things found their way into crcula-

This is of the utmost utility to all those
who are not experienced judges by the eye
By the following directions, the weight car

Take string and put it round the breast

measure on foot rule the feet and inches the
animal is in circumference; this is called tht
girth; then, with the string, measure from
the bone OF the tail which plumbs the lint

take the Dimensions on foot, then rule as be
fore, which is the length, and work Ia,

square superficial feet, and that multiplier

the animal measures less than + and NOR,
than in girth, 81 is the number of pounds
to each superficial foot.
Again, suppose pig or any small beas
should measure 2 feet in girth, and 2 along

revealed to the public eye. These two let.
ters were picked up by person who KEEP,
them as mere curiosities, but who knew how
to use them when the lady indicated ascend.
ed the throne of France. He had them lth.
ographed, the handwriting Of the Countess
being initiated SO closely as to render each
copy fac simle. He sent these by post and
by private hand, by hundreds, into foreign
countries but limited their distribution in
France to the legitimist party merely. He
enclosed two beautifully printed copies to the
Emperor; and ii is said that Louis Napoleon,
on reading them, went into fit Of rage SO
violent that his physician had to be called.
The police was ordered TO make descent ST.
multaneousy at the rooms of all such legiti-
mists as were in any way open to suspicion.
1t was evident from the first that the swoop
had been unsuccessful; many Of the prison.
ers have been released, and those that are de-
tanned will hardly, it is thought, be brought
to trial. While these perquisitions were 60
ing on, Louis Napoleon received a letter, in
forming him, very bluntly, that he was biting
a dle--the original letters were out OF his
reach, the person who owned them knew their
value, and that they would be brought out at
the proper time. If this story be true, and |
think it very plausible-i.s Importance can
hardly be overrated. 1t is the most detailed
and crcumstantiul account Of the Empress
and her ameurs that have yet heard. The
stories told OF her are for the most part mani
testify ficticious or exaggerations, but it is i'm
probable that they have not some foundation
in fact. The calumnies and bad jokes at the
expense OF her Majesty are falling into disre-
pute, but they have left trace behind them;
see no one who supposes that the Empress

'oleon is thought to have understood this as
Well as any one; and was the lees anxious that

natural consequence Of the alliance that he
should be a crown to her.-Pdris Cor. ".

Tribute to Prest. Fillmore by his Cabinet
We have much pleasure in giving publicity
to the following correspondence, which re.
fleets equal honor upon President Fillmore
and the members Of his administration. The
National lntelligencer, from which we copy
the correspondence, in publishing it, says:
B at has, we presume, rarely happened, that
SO great degree Of harmony has existed be-
tween President ard every member Of his
Cabinet. 1t may be supposed by some, that
the relations OF Sir. Webster and Mr. Fill
more, as candidates for the Presidency, FORM
ed an exception to this remsrk.-We have
however, the best reasons for believing that
their friendly and confidential intercourse, per-
sonal and political, was never for moment
interrupted.

votion to the public service, and your patience

SAINT and laborious duties Of your Office Near

A TERRIBLE PICTURE OF SUFFEGING.-Ir
letter TO the Galena Advertiser, written
from Oregon, the sulerings Of an emigranl
party are briefly given, which make up SO
picture of Western adventure:
j. c. Morrison Of Tazewel county, arriveC
safely in Oregon. Their teams gave out SOC
miles this side of their destination. They
left their oxen and those who had famalies
and started down Lewis river on the beds o
their wagons; and out of twenty young mcr
so embarked, only four ever got ashore alive
so rapid was the stream and SO full of rocks
The four having escaped, started through al
uninhabited country with but little provision
and few clothes They arrived at the settle
ment at last, after passing through trials AM
dangers beyond the power OF tongue or pei
to describe.
