COUNT AREsE-Napolsoa's Bosom Friend
The new statesman, Count Arese, who is
abont to take the place of Count Cavour in
the Sandman ministry. is a notable man. He
is the 'bosom friendn of Napoleon, and came
to New York in 1887, to await his arrival when
he was expelled after the Strasbourg failure
The Herald, in sketch of him, says:
Our informant was with them one day when
they were reading small pamphlet, by Per-
signy, on the attempted coup of Strasbourg

was taken by surprise; but, curling his nous

After the elevation of Louis Napoleon to the
imperial throne, the King of Sardinia having
sent Arese to compliment, on his part, the
neWly-chosen Emperor, the latter wrote an
autograph letter to Victor Emanuel to thank
him for having sent to him a "friend whom
he loved more than brother"
However, Notwithstanding so many adyau-
tages possessed by Count Arese, and although
he is endowed with more than ordinary talent
and capacity, he has always preferred his per-
sonal independence to all the honors of court
and the influence or emoluments of office

Though not public man, Count Arese be-
longs to the school of the moderate constitu-
tionalists; but few Of them, and in fact very
few Italians, can boast of a greater love for
their native country, nor of a more profound
hatred for Austria. Count Arese, who is still
remembered by many of our most respectable
citizens, is man of about fifty of fine and
