The Nrapo,itan Prisoners,


what Ny surprise by the announce
ment that the King of Naples has set
at liberty sixty-one political prison
ers. The gilt OF freedom has, it il
true, the penalty Of exile attached;
but this condition tells the more
strongly in favor of the monarch, as
liberty could scarsely be enjoyed
within his dominions. Amo z the
liberated, all will be glad to find the
name OF Poerio. This gentleman,
it will be remembered, wa, one ol
the Minister'S of the Neapolitan gov
ernnent during the brief poriod that
the King, under stress of revolution,
professcd himself a constitutional
sovereign Ae was imprisoned, at.
ter the reign Of despotism was again
resumed. for administering the pub
lie affairs according to tho Consti-
tuition the king had sworn to obey
and uphold. lie remained in pris.
on unheedcd until the visit of Mr..
Gladstone to Naples in 1850. The
humane statesman wa5 so impressed
by what he saw and heard of the
treatment Of Poerlo an1 his associ-
stcs. that he published in the follow.
ing year on his return to England
two lett rs, addressed to Lord Palm
erstun. which attracted great atten.
ton throughout Europe. The King,
persisting in his brutality, the re-
monstrance Of France and England
followed. Bombay declinel to re.
form ION corrpu'sion." The allies
Withdrew their representatives. and
the oh lura,e tyrant has since been
cut by Christcnlom. The present
opening of prison loors is probably
due more to fear than repentance.
The monarch probably thought it
well to anticipate the "knocking"
which might shortly be heard at his
portals.
We have as yet but the bare fact
of this release, by brief telcgraphic
.ii.ps'ch. We know nothing OF the
condition in which these victims o.
tyranny come forth from their long
tenanted dungeons. Some are prob
ably but wrecks Of humanity. The
iron Of heavy chain and iettcr has
probably entered into their souis a.
well "a their bodies. chaling brain as
well as limb Many will probably
carry the marks Of Imprisonment to
their graves. Liberty will, however,
sti!l be sweet. Wherever their lot
be cast they will meet the kindly
hanl Of sympathy. They will "sot
st good mems tcasts,' AMI we trust
want lor nothing in their land OF ex-
lie.
In addition TO the feeling of reliei
at this relaxation OF Neapolitan ty
ranny, for 50 strong had been the
sympathy with these un;ortunates
that men .hought of the fair city by

Bewar, of all the malignant pas

Beware of all the malignant pas
sions. They are great foes to grace,
Envy is devilish. Hatred is mur
derous. Wrath is cruel. Even
peevishness destroys equanimity and

prey. He flies from noise and strife
He who ruleth not his own spirit
will be ruled by an evil spirit.

Flour GoING Born WAy.-O,

FLOUR GoING Born WAYs.-On
Saturday last, two houses in this city
received part OF purchase OF a
thousand barrels of -four from the
East, over the Great Western Rail
way. A part OF this -four was pur.
chased in Buffalo, and the balance
in Nsw York City. Another house
has also ordered a lot from the East,
These facts indicate scarcity of thia
Indispensable staple in the West
Such an occurrence has not taken
place before in twenty years. We
alao learn direct, a few days ago
five hundred barrels of -four were
carried to Grand Rapids, over the
Detroit & Michigan Railway, for
retail trade in that city tho purchase
having been made here. While our
merchants are bringing -four from
the East, which can be sold here at
a profit, Milwaukee sends on lot Of
-four, pork, butter, &C., for the New
York market. This is truly a great
change in the current of the hpur
trade, and results from the fact thai
there must have bsen a great falling
of in tho wheat crop lastseason.

About ten o'clock, hearing a noise,
she arose aud opened the door, wher
three men rushed in with their face.

Hard Times in Iowa.

We are sorry to learn from the Iowa
papers, tha there is much suffering in that
State from want of food. During the
early part of Spring, cattle died OF stary.
alton by scores throughput the State, there
being no grain to feed with, and that af-
fairs are not whit improved at this time
may be learned by the following picture
of distress, from the Eddyville CONNER
cial:
1t is useless to deny or attempt to con-
ceal the fact. This region ofthe country
is destitute of the necessaries of life.--
The stock of food for man and beast is
about exhausted. There is, perhaps,
corn enough to feed those who are una
bic to buy -four; but they have not the
means to tuy corn. lt''is in the hands OF a
few persons, and they will only sell for
cash at dollar bushcl. Not onethird
of those who ueed to buy corn have the
dollar, or any Ecans of getting it; tor the
money, like the corn, is out of the reach
OF the destitute. We are no panic m aker,
but OF this We feel certain, and we speak
adviscdly, that ia thirty days from this
time, unless those who have a surplus "a
gree to part with it, on time, at fair
price, it will be distributed and carried
away by bands of desperate men, to feed
their starving families. This sounds
terribly, but it i, too near the truth, and
men will not suffer their families 10 starve
when food can be produced by going and
taking it.
