Baron Poerio, ex-Minister of Ferdinand H., after
ten years of imprisonment and irons has been ship
ped off from the country, together with many of
his companions. Arriving in Pozzuoli on Friday
night or Saturday morning, they were taken on
board the Stromboli, government steamer, which
had been lghtened of her guns. There were Poe
rio, DOno Plea, Braica, Castromediano, Palermo,
MOllica, and another of the Montesarchio prisoners

ers who were taken from the Island of Nisda on
Sunday, and consist principally of priests. The
naming part of the vessel is given up to prisoners
from other of the islands. The meeting and the
parting with friends which took place at Pozzuoli
was of very painful character; for Dono, who
recently lost his wife, after meeting with his
daughter for the first time in seven years. al
most in the same moment called upon to bid them
perhaps an eternal adieu. On Sunday the StrOm-
boil left Pozzuoli for the Island of Ventotine to
take up another batch of prisoners, and on Monday
went to Stan Stefano to embark some more. Jaco-
veil, confined in Brindsi, and Caprio in Pescara,

the deputies in lS4S, and his main fault seems to
have been in taking the contract. From this king
dom they will be taken to Cadz. On arriving at
Cadiz each man is to receive something more than
two pounds, and in New York from nine to ten
pounds, or fifty ducats. The world will then be
open to them where to choose, and not before then;
and my impression is, that not many months will
have elapsed before their arrival in Piedmont their
story not whit the less in interest, and they them
selves full of burning vengeance against the authors

SERVICE AT ST. PAUEs.-Bishop De Lancy, now

Sd. The reading of'the lessons by the members of
the congregation in their Bibles in the pews.

9th. The very little looking round and staring
at each other by the congregation and the apparent

In another letter (Dec. 2Oth) Bishop Del. speaks
thus of the weekly services held the night before in
St. PauPs Cathedral, London:
ut was most impressive services more than
three thousand present, notwithstanding the rain
choir OF more than five hundred volunteer singers
chaunted and sung The sermon was by the Rev
Dr. Hook-extemporaneous animated and impress
sive, and fixed the attention of the great multitude
for forty minutes. The voices of the people almost
overpowered the immense organ. 1t was majes-
tic sound. Such an amen | never heard. 1t was
the Fall of the Niagara reverberang the praises of
God. 1t carried me forward to what st. John saws:
"A voice came out of the Throne, SAYING Praise our
Iod all ye His servants, and ye that fear Him both
small and great; and heard as it were, the voice
OF great multitude, as the voice of many waters,
and as the voice of mighty thunderngs SAYING,
Alleluia! for the Lord God Omnipotent reigneth ,"
"All about us, so far could see or hear, re-
sponded and sung, but no individual voice, male or
female, could be distinguished in the overpowering
and harmonious mass of sound. There We're no long
preudes or interludes by the organ.
"When the hymn after the sermon was finished,
all bent down and the preacher pronounced the
benediction, to which the organ, choir and congre-
cation responded most solemn and impressive
amen; and all was silent as the grave, for private
prayer to God for his blessing on the servce-a ST.
lence overpowering- silence that could be felt The
immense flock then quietly dispersed"
SABBATH OBSERVANCE IN FRANCE.-The Obserya-
teur du Dimdnche, after mentioning the manner in
which the Association for the better observance of
the Sabbath, of which it is the organ, ori ginated
says: Five years after its commencement, the
Association reckoned in Paris nearly 900 members
the Pope granted it many striking favors and
several other Associations were formed in the prov
inces, and united themselves to it. The number of
our members has, perhaps, increased less rapidly
than we could have desired, but the augmentation
goes on, and new Associations, some of them en-
bracng entire doceses, have of late requested to
join it. We must be allowed to state another i'm
progress. The major part of the Associations
which during two years have united themselves to
ours have not confined themselves to the simple OBJ
servance of Sunday as a dav of rest, but have
endeavored to have it kept holy. The number of
shops which close on Sunday has than triped
during the last two years.
