ITALY AND MIssIssIPPI-A HALE OF WAY. SIDE lNN.'-len CT twelve years ago an Ital ian emigrated from Northern italy, and after various wandarngs, pitched his tent at Jack. son, Mississippi. He rrospered in business, increased and multiplied. He also managed 10 build two comfortable little houses. and n!togethcl was getting along quite well in the world. IA the t;ne the War broke out he was North on business, and, finding, from his we'll known Union sentiments. that it would be dangerous to return, he took what money he had with him, and accompanied by his wife, sailed for Europe, while his sons entered into the army.
 In the beautiful Val d'Ossola, not far from the town Of Dcmo Ossola, on the great ,horoughfare where the Simplon road, issuing from the Alps and but just escaped from the rocky frowns of the george of Congo, passes amid irlnges of olive groves to the grand white " Arch of Psace," and the brilliant city of Milan, is located one of those unpretending inns or iocandas which abound in Italy, low rambling house, half hid iii trellishee vines and preaced as to doorway by several rude and sip the country wine.
 ! A few months ago two American pedestrians stopped at thls place and ordered wine; and l while slipping It, were accosted in tolerable ! English by the landlord, who wanted to know their views about the war, and particularly when the State of Mississipp; would be re- gained for the Union. The question coming from such source led to conversation, du- ring which it was revealed that the worthy inn keeper was none other than that Italian emigrant and the house owner in the town oi Jackson.
 At that time there was no early prospect of the taking of the capital of Mississippi but now that General sherman is in that very vi. cinity, if not in the city itself, there will prob ably be good news for the inn-keeper of the Simplon Road. And this is bu, one instance out of many, in which each of even the minol phases O. the war strikes directly at some per sonal interest Or some chord of affection il individuals in the most remote corners of the continent of Europe
