A PREMATURE OUTBREAK IN RoMR.-The
GLORIOUS news" from Italy, foreehadow wed in
the mysterious cable dispatch we published
yesterday seems to have been based on very
slight foundation. Late dispatches from Rome
state that the Party of Action In that city, who
have hitherto been very quiet attempted an
instruction on Tuesday last. A mine was
placed under the barracks iof the Papel
Zouaves, which at given signal was fir ed
The attempt was decided failure. Not .
single life was lost. Many persons, to be sure,
were injured. TIE general outbreak whic 4
the firing OF the mine was to eignalize, was
quickly repressed, and the city soon became
uuiet.

OF school tax on his tax bill. We suppose tina.
one item is the general tax for school purposes,
and the other the dollar school poll tax Some
have supposed that the recent law of Con-
gress does away with the poll tax, but this is
an error. 1t simply does away with the re-
quirement that the dollar poll tax shall be

proceed no farther than possible. A
Conference Of the Great Powers will be
called to settle the Roman question.
The latest dispatches from Rome be-
fore the destruction Of t~elegraphic COM
munication, say that the insurgents
were actively engaged. An outbreak
was regarded as imminent. The troops
of Garioaldi were only six miles distant,
and were organizing for an attack. The
party of action were firing 0rsini shells
In the streets and impatiently waiting
the arrival Of Garibaldi. The French
fleet had arrived at Civita Yecchia and
the troops disembarked.
LONDON, October 29.-The Globe says
editorially that although Prussia is COM
mitted to neutrality on the Roman ques-
ton, Bismark assures the Italian Cab
met that no will not allow France to
make war on Italy on account of the

PARIS, October 30.-Garibaldi's vic
tory is confirmed. he has been REIN
forced by several thousand mon.
La Pdtrie says the Italian Cabinet
have accepted office on condition-First,
that the King publicly disayow conni-
vance and support of the Garibaldian
invasion, and second, that Italy CO.
operate with the French expedition by

fused to permit Italy to cooperate, be.

Mrs. L~INcoLN.-In view of the late
publication of Mrs. Lincoln's correspon-
dence, showing the condition Of her
finances, it may be interesting to know
that Judge Davis Of the Supreme Court,
as administrator of tho estate, invested
for Mrs. Lincoln $4,000 in fve-twen-
ties, the interest Of which has been reg
ulsrly reinvested since through the First
National Bank Of this city.
The proposal Of "Mrs. Clarke to sell
her costly wardrobe in New York ex-
cites humiliating reflections. The list
Of the articles comprising the same does
no less. Her threats of exposure, made
against certain individuals Of the Re-
publican party, show that these expen-
sivc articles of apparel wore distinctly
the price of political favors at her hands.
She applies to the leaders Of that party
In New York for relief, and they turn a
deaf ear to her. The subscription which
they engineered and collected for her
benefit in that city, after her husbands
death, was basely turned into the party
electioneering fund, md now they mock
her appeal for relief after having kept
back what was hers long ago. Such
revelations of ingratitudc and selfish
ness are not at all pleasant to read, yet
we trust tho lady will go on and write
out the chapter. In connection with the
great "cause" and the progressive ideas
which these men profess to champion,
bcfooling the people with their sounding
brass and tinkling cymbals, such revela-
tions are remarkable, and therefore the
more needed. Even on the little points
Of decency, this I" party of great moral
ideas" is going to pieces. Its leaders
buy places with gifts of rich laces, and
and forget the one through whom their
gifts were efficient. This list Of shawls
and dresses is an advertisement of their
method Of carrying on a war for the
Union" securing universal liberty and
establishing justice. The disclosure
throughout is enough to make aver
Radicals hang their heads in shame and
confusion The secret of their moral
ideas" is leaking out.-Boston Post.

Within a day or two several parties

The Grand Jury Of Alpine county,
CAL, were charged by Judge Emo to look
carefully into the affairs of the county.
In performing its duty it eIonerated
everybody but the Judge. In relation
to him the Jury "found' as follows:
"Belieyiug that the most effective
manner in which the Hon. County Judge
can serve his fellow-citizens, is by a
tender of his resignation of such office,
therefore we most respectfully request
him to resign the office Of County Judge,
that one, impartial and competent, may
take his place and preside over the law
matters Of the county"
Judge Emo seems not to have been
overwhelmed with the finding" but
according to the Alpine Chronicle, saidi
Gentlemen: l have no doubt o are
entitled to the thanks Of those engaged
In the plumber of the county. Gentle
mon, you are discharged" This was
rough on the jury, after a day and night
session Of ten days, but it might have
been rougher, and they can congratu-
late themselves that they were not sent
up for contempt.
