There is that in the present political
condition of Italy, which deserves the
warmest sympathy Of every lover Of true
freedom. Unsuccessful in their strug-
giles to obtain political liberty, the peo-
pie of the fairest land under Heaven are
probably at this demonstrating into
consideration their capacity for self-gov-
ernment-the most enslayed and the most
unhappy. Italy is the prey of foreign
tyrants, who exercise upon her barbara
ties which they dare not employ at home !;
the object of which is to crush out of
her population every particle Of the spi-
rit of independence, and to render her
sons as servile in soul as they are in con-
dition. Cursed with want of unity
which renders courage useless and de-
votion abortive, their attempts at indie
pendence have degenerated into mere
cons piracies and seditions, which, want
ing the dignity of true virtue, have fail
ed to ensure to them and their struggles
the respect of mankind.
In Milan, the Austrians lash women ;
in Rome, the French shoot republicans ;
in Florence, they Danish for religious O.
pinions !; and iE Naples, citizens suspec-
ted of liberal opinions are thrown, for
years, into horrible dungeons. In Lom-
hardy man was hung for having an old
rusty gun in his possession, contrary to
the law of the state of seige; another
was bastinadoed for speaking disres pect-
fully of His Catholic Majesty Francis |,
while numbers are imprisoned for hav-
ing in their possession "pernicious and
inflammatory writings" among which
the Bible is included. "Austria, in the
Papal territory, judges and condemns
France judges and condemns; the Pope
Judges and condemns. Each of these u
nited powers, in its turn, causes strang-
ling, shooting and beheading." Narles
and Tuscany are in no better condition,
and the whole of The Italian peninsula
seems given over to be the victim Of
ruthless cruelty and relentless barbar-
ism.

To MArHEMATIcANs.- There is e.
quality between time, space, distance,
and weight or, without tautology, be-
tween time and space, which embrace
the others In the term equality"
mean to embrace analogy, which idea
leads the mind to perceive the equality
existing between different things
Thus, we determine the distance be-
tween givenIpoints by the time requi-
red in travelling it.; and so as to space
and quantity by measurement. And all
may be determined by the straight liae,
even the seemingly foreign or antago-
MYSTICAL principle of weight be-
ing determined BY measure, and meas
ure BY space, and space by time, and
time by distance, and distance by the
straight, line. All circles, globes, cyl
!.sders, or curved lines may be accurate
ly measured by this line. Thus, TO find
the area Of given circle, multiply the
circumference by one-fourth of the di-
ameter and the result will be the area
To find the true diameter Of given cir
Gle, divide the circumference by threa
and the result will be the true diameter
What | mean by the s;true diameter" is
the relation which certain figures OBJ
tanned, as above, for diameter. bear t.
the circumference of circle, as com.
pared with the apparent diameter, OBJ.
tanned by the usual measurement. Il
will be found, think, that this s'true
diameter"-a deduction in mathemati.
cal and geometrical science-obyiates
the difficulties heretofore experiences
in getting the relation, in exact numbers
between the diameter of circle and it:

FLAx-GRowlNG IN WIscoNsIN.-"O
L. b. writes communication to the
Sentinel, in which he expresses his won
der at the small amount Of flax grown in
the State. He urges its culture, on the
ground that it is most profitable crop
and in great demand-one million tons
being now wanted at the East. The lint
is more profitable per acre than the saed.
The writer says:
"There can be as good flax raised in
this State as in Russia, or even ireland
and there are, no doubt, many farmers
from the German States, Ireland, or Rus
STA, who thoroughly understand this mat
ter, and can prepare it as well as the i'm
ported article. Although the fibre is no;
50 good, when it is allowed to ripen, yet
if pulled, and water-rotted, it will com
mand good price. Any of the forward
ing houses in this city will pay cash for
well-dressed article, either pulled or
cradteds dew or water rotted."

hear but little, of late, of the operations
of the time-honored beneficial Evanic or

society, which in times past has been
productive of the most beneficial results,
