the troops were stationed, that they could see little OF

When the dead, dull sound Of the filling Of the
knife upon Orsini was heard, it was responded to byan
immense Pnt snothered reply Of Kioela Repx6l;qsef

imaginable; struck their horses, 80 to make them
plunge and kick, shook their arms, and ~contrived 10
that the popular whisper should be stiaed without being
literally put down. But the words, 8 ,Kaue u Rsps6.

In addition to this, my friend says s I purposely went
home on foot, threading my way through the groups
wherever I found them thickest. 3 I am bound to admit
that everywhere I heard expressions Of sympathy and
admiration for Orsini, whose crime seems utterly for
gotten, while only the effect produced by his courage
and generosity toward his associates remains. Pierri7s
name | did not hear once. The attitude of the popu.
lace was, l should say, extremely mepacing, for It has
the marks Of hate and thirst for vengeance seated too
deep for words. All the remarks | heard were. made in
an under tone, az though a police spy was dreaded 1t
