soldiers were supplied with ball cartridge, and in

Minister to leave his residence bv five O'Clock and
proceed by the Corso to the Porta del POpOlo was
generally known throughout the CITY, and long be-
lore that hour crowds of people commenced pouring
into the COrsO, anxious to witness or take mart in
the expected farewell demonstration, and the num-
bers congregated together must have Amounted to
10000 persons Every possible precaution had been
taken to prevent any demonstration taking place
on the Piazza del POpolo.
The iron gates of the Pincian promenade vnra
closed, dragons were stationed at the POrta del
Popolo to prevent the egress of the carriages in
the direction to be taken by the Minister, and the
intention of the authorities appeared to be to Gre
ate kind of vacuum for the exit of the Sandman
representative. But it is difficult to restrain the
overfiowing gush of an entire population. As the
Counts equipage approached the POpolo gate
numbers OF people succeeded in breaking THROUGH
the lines of French soldiers, and the carriage was
Immediately surrounded by individuals anxious to
give their earnest but orderly adieus and good
wishes, to which the Count responded with the
emotion not unnatural on such an occasion
Amongst the more distant spectators the demon
stration was limited to waving of handkerchefs
and taking off of hats; cries were uttered, nor
did anything occur calculated to verify the fears or
justify the alarming precautionary measures adopt
ed by the French general.
The concourse of people outside the gates was
diminished partly by the prohibitory measures of
the dragons and police, and partly by the Minister'S
setting off earlier than was expected; but still n
number OF persons were collected on the road to
Ponte MOlle, who had succeeded in getting round
by the POrta Angelica, and the count was after all
destined to submit to the will of General de Goyon

Aqua Traverse, nearly three miles from Rome.
where, apparently fearing no farther sympathetic
demonstrations from the people. they turned their
horses heads towards Rome, and left the Minister
to continue his route unmolcsted the tranquility of
the road further on having been provided for by
patrols of Roman gems d arme, who had been for
warded in detachments at an earlier hour.
Such is the full true and particular account of
the Sandman Minister'S dismissal from the ''Eter-
nal City, than which a more il-advised proceed
ing could scarcely have been adopted nor one more
calculated either in its policy the mode of its ex-
ecuon to produce results exactly contrary to those
for which it resolved upon.
We hear that at Niterbo, through which town the
Count della Minerva passed on Sunday nj ght on
his way to Tuscany, many of the inhabitants ap-
prised of his arrival added their demonstrations to
those Of the capital, by illuminating their windows
as the Counts carriage went by.
