FOREIGN ITEMS.

ITALIAN YoUTH.-A Tnrin letter of May
10, says THE whole Italian youth are rush
ing to arms, and if Sardinia do not within
three month number two hundred thousand of
her own combatants, it will rather be from her
want of means or capacity of organization than
from any lack of material to work upon. The
volunteers are found among the people above
rather than below the middle rank, as the alb
stract idea of nationality has of course struck
deeper roots among the thinking and feeling
part of the community. The army finds its
recruits among the scions of the Lombard and
other Italian nobility. Nothing can well be
mere touching than to see the young and al
most boyish, fine featured, delicately framed
rfemen or lancers, clad in the coarse cloth of
mere privateS, walking arm-in-arm with their
richly dressed mothers, OF driving by their side
in their coroneted chariots, longing for the day
which is to rid them of the tedious routine
duties of the drilling depot, and send them
forth as full-grown soldiers ready for active
service"
The BAN JELLACmCH-The death of the
Ban Jelachich has been announced in dis
patch from Vienna. The Ban had long been
laboring under disease of the chest, as wela
sciatica, and had taken up his residence at
Agram, where he has just died. Should the
intelligence be confirmed, the Emperor of Aus
tria loses one of his most faithful friends, and
one, moreover, who has done the State some
service in his time. No Ban of the Croats ever
possessed such entire power over that wild I'M
ruy tribe as Jeachich. He was possessed ofthe
greatest firmness ofcharacter allied to much hui
manity, and high sense Of justice, which made
the Croats under his command look up to him
as a father, and rely upon his judgment with
the blindest obedience, and abide by it, ac-
cording to a saying common amongst them,
whether right Or wrong" Jellachich, in
spite of the life of warfare he had led, was
devoted to the arts and sciences, and was the
inventor of the art of fixing the color of zinc,
by means Of acid now so generally adopted,
and which in France has increased the value
of zinc, according to returns of the Veille
Montague more than forty per cent during the
last few years.

GEORGE BANCROFT ON JONATHAN Ed
wARDs.-In New York city, at the room of
the Historical Society, on Tuesday evening,
Hon. George Bancroft delivered discourse on
Jonathan Edwards. Previous announcement
of the topic drew out large audience. The
distinguished historian could not have selected
richer topic, nor one which he has studied
more closely. Here is a sketch of the open
ing of his discourse -
He said that many years ago he lived in
Northampton, and had under his eye the room
where the subject of his address resided The
speaker had never had the opportunity of go.
ing into his study, but the man who has
doubted the value Of Astor's bequest Tap
plause), Mr.. Coggswell, has verified the story
that in that room could be seen the marks of
his feet where he sat when studying. lie was
the only son of his parents, but had ten sis.
ters, four of whom were older than himself
WIN his parents, they fitted him for college.
ne entered Yale very young, and there distin-
gulshed himself by his manly courage and
lore. But the work which gave the impulse
10 ms mind was 'Locke's Essay on the Under
standing. AT fifteen or sixteen he argued out
Tor himself his theory of the will as well as
that Of virtue"
Then followed a long sketch Of Edwards Of
his religious experience and his ministry at
Northampton, Of his wife and his studies and
his metaphysics. Mr. Bancroft auditors were
well entertained, all but one, Hon. George
Folsom, who, we suspect is one of the dog.

SUDDEN WHITENING OF THE HAIR-A
correspondent of the Medical Times having
asked for authentic instances of hair becoming
grey within the space Of one night Mr.. ID.
Parry, staff surgeon at Adersbott, writes the
following very remarkable account of a case
OF which he says he made memorandum
shortly after the occurrence On February
Is, 1858, the column under Gen Franks, in
the South Of Dude, was engaged with rebel
force at the village Of Chanda, and several
prisoners were taken; one Of them, Sepoy
of the Bengal army was brought before the
authorities for examination, and being pres
ent, had an opportunity of watching from the
commencement, the fact am about to record
Divested OF his uniform, and stripped com
pletely naked, he was surrounded by the SOL
diers, and then first apparently became alive
to the dangers of his position; he trembed
violently intense horror and despair were de-
picted in his countenance, and, although he
answered the questions addressed to him, he
seemed almost stupefied with fear; while I'M
der observation, within the space of half an
hour, his hair became gray, on every portion
OF his head it having been when first seen by
us, the glossy jet black of the Bengalee, aged
about twenty-tour. The attention of the by.
ISLANDERS was first attracted by the sergeant,
whose prisoner he was, exclaiming, ole is
turning gray" and |, with several other per-
sons, watched its progress. Gradually but
decidedly, the change went on, and uniform
groysh color was completed within the period
above named.

The Louisville Journal, one of the "Oppo-
sition" agencies with which some of our friends
expect to conclude bargain, pays the follow
ing notice to the few free State men now in
Virginia and Kentucky:
"The Republicans in Northwestern Virgin
ia, OF the Eli Thayer stripe, who do not hest
tate TO assert their earnest desire to convert
Virginia into Il free State, have saved Letch-
cr's election. All along the northern bounda-

The WEBSTER STATUE.-The State House
grounds have had narrow escape from Mr..
Powers statue of Webster AT meeting of
the Webster Memorial Committee, on We'd
nesday the subject was discussed with much
warmth, and the action of the Executive Com
mittee in obtaining the consent of the State
authorities to place the statue on the Capitol
Grounds was finally nullified. Edward Eve
rett and Prof. FELTON, made a vigorous struggle
to prevent this result, and defended the statue
from the adverse criticisms made upon it as a
work of art But the multiplying resolve was
adopted by IA to o. Mr.. Everett thcreupon
resigned his position as Chairman of the Com
mittee. The unfortunate statue remains in
the hands Of the Committee, who are likely to
have much difficulty in making satisfactory
disposal Of it.

CONSTITUTIONAL AMESDMESTs.-The three
proposed amendments to the State Constitu-
ton of Connecticut came up in the Senate for
consideration, Wednesday. With little discus.
sion, the amendment giving tho right of sue.
frage to colored as well as white citizens, was
rejected by vote of yeas to l6 nays. The
second, or cone year" amendment, discrim.
mating against foreign born citizens to that
extent, received 4 yeas and II nays. The
third amendment providing for but one repre-
sentative from each town in the State after
May, 1860, did not receive the required two
thirds vote, and was therefore lost The first
amendment seems to have been Objectionable
in form, and opposed by some Republicans
who were in favor of striking the invidious
word "whitc" from the Constitution, If it could
have been done without incorporating other
provisions to which there were radical objec-
tions.

WEBSTER SQUARE, see by our daily pa
pers that there is considerable interest grow
ing up among The inhabitants of the different
eXtremities, or "outskirt thickly settled locali-
ties of our beautiful rural city in regard to
the proper and permanent names of these vari-
Gus localities, in addition to the general name
of the City Of Worcester. 1t is certainly very
proper that each extreme locaIity-say, school
district if you please, should be known by an
appropriate local name
| am interested in the district at present
known as New Worcester, which, it seems to
me, and must am confident, be acknowledge
ed by others, to have outgrown its prudent
name, since it has become so extensively and
directly connected with what is, and has for
merly been known as, the Centre District. In
the centre of New Worcester" our beautiful

terminates in good sized, finely located,
and ornamental public, nameLeSs square, front
ing which Il respectable public hall is being
completed. From this square, Cambridge

branch off in different directions, as do Lin
coin, Grove, and Highland Streets from the
foot of Main street. which is most properly and
respectfully called Lincoln Square.
The suggestion would make is simply this
that the name of Ne,o Worcester be exchang-
ed for Webster Square; and the new hall front
ing the square be christened Webster Hall, and
the grammar, secondary, and primary schools
the house of which has recently been built
upon Webster street, near the square, be call
ed the Webster Schools. This seems appro-
pirate. Can there be any objection to it ? X

matte liberals, and who probably had not for
gotten some theological talk in public, by Mr..
Bancroft, on a former occasion. Mr.. Folsom
now made demonstration, of which the New
York Post gives the following account
cat the end of Mr. Bancroft's paper, Hon.
George Folsom rose and while declaring his
admiration for the versatile genius of his 'ec-
centric friend, Mr.. Bancroft which adorned
whatever it touched, and which could embel-
fish any side of any question which might be
presented for discussion, he was compelled to
say that neither the subject nor the discussion
appeared appropriate to the occasion. He felt,
while listening to the theological observations
of Mr.. Bancroft, as if he were in the Taberna-
Gle or prayer meeting, rather than IN the HIS
torical SocietyS rooms. MIR. Folsom also
made some remarks as to the unacceptable
character of Mr. Edwards to his Northampton
Mass. parish, by whom he was kicked from
town. At this point Mr.. Bancroft rose and
said that it was true, but the kicking was less
credtable to Northampton than to Jonathan
Edwards, and Northampton has long since re-
pented her misconduct in sackclOth and ashes.
This declaration was received with unequivO-
cal applause, and the thanks of the audience
were voted by resolution to Mr. Bancroft

saying that the people of Northampton were
infinitely sorry for what they had done, and
that they had ''repented it in sackcloth and
ashes from that day to this" The New York
Times finds Mr.. Folsoms outbreak very COM
ical and laughs over it as follows =
1.-The worthy gray-beards of the Society
stared in mute surprise, as old Papinius might
have done when that saucy Gaul plucked at
his venerable beard. The eminent historian,
as an old resident of Northampton, retorted
with scornful yigor; and there is no knowing
how far the conflict might have gone on, had
not some coy old knickerbockers rallied from
their amazement in time to Pickwickianize
the whole affair, and provoke a general adj
journment to the ice-creams below. That the
tournament was a serious one is proved by
the language of the combatants. Ii Mr.. Fol
som had not been exceedingly wroth he would
never have mistaken the sitting stew-pan of
the Historical Soclety's room for the airy
spaces of the Tabernacle. Had the eminent
historian not been transported with pious zeal,
he could never have ventured npon the asser-
ton that all the dead and buried parishioners
of Edwards were up to this day engaged in
penting his dismissal in sackcloth and ashes.
The collision was dreadful"
