The Departure of Francis aud His Queen
frnm Gnnfn-Innlhnntn NJ the Nnrn

from Gneta-Inoidents Of the Voyage.
A letter from Naples gives some particu-
lars of the departure of the ex-King and
suite from Gaeta. The French dispatch
steamer La Mouete having been sent for by
telegraph TO Naples, arrived at Gaeta in the
morning, at balfpast seven o'clock, aud
found Francis awaiting her in a small boat,
with a small circle of friends and servants.
The officers aud soldiers of his army watched
the embsrkation from the walls. The cap.
tain having announced his readiness to re-
ceive the King, the latter at once ascended
the deck. He was smoking, and from time
to time a bitter smile passed over his face.
He spoke few words with the captain and
officers, then threw himself into chair, and
gazed abstractedly about. ... .
The Queen, Maria Sophia, had disdain and
anger depicted in her face. Richly but neg
ligently dressed, she sat in company with
two faithful ladies of her court, and, with
her face supported on her right hand, fixed
her eyes on Gaeta. Of sudden was heard
the sound Of drums and trumpets. 1t was
from the Italian regiments marching to the
town. Francis smiled, raised and waved his
laced cap. His suit cried ViUe IL Re y
Long live the Kingl" was shouted back
by his soldiers on the walls, and the Mouette
left her moorings.
During the voyage, Francis conversed on
ulVlal SUBJECTS, and seemed much amused
at seeing his Generals and Counselors 10 the
ga1b of iootmen; a dress assumed in order
TO be able to follow their royal master.
Among these was most conspicuous General
Bosco, with his twisted monstaches. The
King appeared more like boy than q de-
throned monarch. But the Queen, though
silent and calm, yet showed clearly the grief
that oppressed her. She spoke little, but
with dignity. On the way another French
steamer was spoken, with dispatches for
Gaeta. Francis asked if he would be per-
mitted to disembark. Anywhere, was the
answer, excepting on Neapoltan territory.
So it was decided to make Terracina. Here
the King ordered his effects to be transferred
OR board Spanish vessel in the harbor, and
left at once for Rome, in hired carriage,
with his wife.

DEATH OF DISTINGUISHED MUSICIAN
Pastor Ortheib, who met with melancholy
death at Stuttgart, deserves to be mentioned
as one of the first theoretical musicians and
best composers Of sacred music of the present
time in Germany. He lived on the High
Alp" in Suabia, on the romantic rock of
Drachenetein, with DipiRa Musica as sole
companion. He had been missed for several
weeks, to the dismay of his friends, and now
his body has been found in the so ocalled
upper lake of the royal pleasure. grounds,
behind the castle. Notwell acquainted with
the locality, he was walking there on foggy
evening, and probably tried TO cross a
wooden bridge, which, however, leads only
to the middle of the lake, and ends in some
steps, which at the time were covered with
ice. This accounts easily for the accident,
which created sad CONSERVATION among his
friends and the public in general. He
was the founder of the musical printing
Office, "Zum Haydn" and of the journal for
sacred music at Stuttgart. A requiem has
there been given for him, ,sof his own compo-
sition, executed by the Cecilienverein, under
the direction of Herr Schutky.

Elizabeth Barrett Browning on the Ad-
vantage of NIadness-Her View of tho
American Crisis.
Elizabeth Barrett Browning, in a letter to
the New York Independent, says:
Now the question is thrown into new
probabilities of solution by that fine madness
of the South, which is Gods gift to the
world in these latter days, in order to a
restitution of all things" and the reconsti-
tuition every where of political justice and
national right. See how it has been in
Italy If Austria had not madly invaded
Piedmont in 1863 France could not have
fought. If the Pope had not been madly
obstinate in rejecting the reforms pressed on
him by France, he must have been sustained
as a temporal ruler. @
If the King of Naples had not madly re-
fused to accept the OveTtures of Piedmont
toward an alliance in free government and
Italian independence, we should have had to
wait for Italian unity. So with the rulers of
Tuscany, Modena, and the rest. Every
body was mad at the right moment. thank
God for it.
"Mais, mon cher" said Napoleon to the
Tuscan ex Grand Duke, weeping before him
as a suppliant, 'VOus etiez a Solferino" That
act of pure madness settled the Dukes
claims upon Tuscany. And looking yearn-
ingly to our poor Venetia Ito say nothing of
other suffering peoples beyond this penin-
sula) my cry must still be, "Give, give
more madness, LordW ..-
The Pope has been madder than every
body, and for a much longer time, exactly
because his case was complex and difficult,
and because with Catholic Europe and the
French clerical party strengthened by NJ.
Guizot and the whole French dynastic op-
position-I wish them Joy of their cause y
drawn up on the Holy Fathers side, the
least touch of sanity would have saved him,
to the immense injury of the Italian nation.
AS it is, we are at the beginning of the end.
We see light at the end of the cavern. Here s
dark turning indeed about Yenitia-but
we won't hit our heads against the stalac-
tites even there; and, beyond, we get out into
free, great independent italy, May God
save us to The end .-..
At this point the anxiety on American
affairs can take its full share of thought. NY
psrtiality for frenzies is not so absorbing,
believe me, as to exclude very painful con-
siderations on the dissolution of your great
Union. But my serious fear has been, and
is, not for the dissolution of the body, but
the death of the soul-not of rupture ol
States and civil war, but of reconciliation
and peace at the expense OF deadly COM
promise of principle. .-.g .. .
Nothing viii destroy the Republic but
what corrupts its conscience and distnrbs It's
fame-for the stain upon the honor must
come off upon the flag. If on the other
hand, the North stands fast on the moral
ground, no glory viii be like your glory
your frontiers may diminish, but your es-
sential greatness viii increase; your foes
may be of your own household, but your
friends must be among all Just and right
eous men, whether in the body or out Of the
body. You are "compassed about by great
| cloud Of witnesses" and can afford to risk
any thing except conscience.
