GENOA, Dec. 20, 1854.
The Des Geneys which left the day before yesterday
morning for NeR York-where, are told, she is to
take in cargo Of -four for military provisions-had
on board emigrants banished from State, the
Der Of whom, according to the Italia Popoo, exceeds
by far sixty three.
What Is the cause OF TINS DansnmentY we are
aware that the arrested individuals
reached Genoa medations made in favsr Of
several of them, and the authorities answered that
" they not transported for political matters" On
the other hand the Italia and with it some other paper
from Turin asserts that honest men, whose arrest
suggested merely from political motives mingled
with those banished being for vagrancy
and bad conduct-the removal OF the latter being
sds,ed as beneficial By the emigration itself -
right when reproached the government with the 81

In the first place, the government devates from the
track lately pointed out which is that of submitting
the emgrants to the tribunal-which is the just

Judiciary action the most complete and solemn publicity
ustes Of itself the necessary measures and not only
decided condemnation, but such legal result from
which should arise moral proofs Of dishonesty OF
6epraved life, would suffice to render expulsion APP
plauded by the entire body OF honest emigration. In
the second place. why does not the government 1t least
publish the list Of names and the motives OF thi, expu
