| MEETING OF ITALIANS IN PARIs-On the 2Stb of
April a meeting of the Italians residing in the
French capital was held in the saloon of the Con-
cert de Paris, for the purpose of appointing com
mlttee for the promotion of the Italian cause in
France and elsewhere. The number of persons
| present was about four hundred. NJ. de Franchis
having been unanimously called to the chair, and
NJ Bailant banker, appointed secretary, the chair
man rose, and in an animated speech adverted to
the object of the meeting. The hopes of centuries
he said, were about to be realized; an Italian
King, admired for his chivalry and generosity, and
aided by powerful sovereign was about to deliver
| the Italian nation from bondage. The Emperor of
the French, he regretted to say had long been an
object of unmerted hatred to many Italians blinded
by prejudice or party spirit but he trusted that,
now that Napoleon III. had drawn the sword for
Italy, his name would be held sacred by all as the
deliverer of the Peninsula. Loud and prolonged
cheers, with cries of Fiua Phnparatore! Tira
