There are people who "do protest too much, and

their grand project the deliyerance Of Rome. It IL
strongly denied that Garbaldi's sons or any other
leaders OF the party Of action are making or have
authorized enrolments Of volunteers for second in

married at Bologna and his head they say has long
been too full OF his lady love to bestow o thought
upon the wrongs OF the Romans, and now. In his
honeymoon, he had as lief hear anything as o drum.
Men who have held command In past Garibaldan
movements ana are deep in the secrets of the red
shirted organization have lately assured me that
nothing Is In contemplation for the present year,
and that the rumors persisently current are pro-
pagated by the priests to keep up an agtated, un.
easy feeling IN Italy, and by fomenting ap-
prehensons Of danger to the Holy Father to prevent
the faithful from naggng in their contributions Of
Peters pence and pous recruits for the support of

ment has published declaration to the eject that
the rumors asserting him to be now making enlist
ments are utterly unfounded. Further, the Major
states that he will have nothing more to do with
Garibaldan enstments or movements, and would
even prevent such being carried out to the best OF
his power. Major Frygesi Is evidently secessionist
from the Garibaldian camp Perhaps his experience
OF the Italian patriots In their last raid upon the
Roman States was not favorable one. The terms
of his letter have given great offence to his quondam
associates. SO far for denals and pacific protesta-
lions, which do not however, do away with the sig
nifcant facts mentioned in my last letter.
was then led to believe either that the Garibal-
dian party were preparing to carry out some project
Of invasion in the autumn or would hold themselves
ready to support q movement initiated by the
Romans themselves. With respect to the assurances
made TO me personally by Garlbaldians, estimate
them by my experience Of last year;
In July and August, 1867, when l had
very excellent reason to know what was coming

pars on the subject BY each and all

Which would have done credit to dplOmatist or to

peace. Such masked battery tactics are common
with nations and parties who want time to prepare
Major Frygesi, in the published letter mentioned
above, alludes TO the great number of Garbaldian
volunteers who are constantly applying to him I'M
der the belief that some Roman movement is pro-
tected. All such applications, declares the MAJOR
have remained and will remain unanswered. 1t
would be interesting to know what moved many
men to come forward simultaneously and ouer
their services, and whether the other Garbaldian
leaders In different towns, to whom numerous vOun-
teers have likewise offered themselves, have changed
their views as radically as MAJOR Fryges ON this
point we learn nothing from the democratic press
and Major Frygesl is the only man who has come |
forward to repudate any present participation In
arihaldlan projects upon Rome. There H. without

Of Garioadianism, and the year will not pass away
without some fresh agitation, however much the
leaders OF the party may ind 1t expedient at present
to disavow any such intention.
The popular mind also associates Prussia very In
timately with the national aspirations. For some
time past the Prussian Embassy has been receiving

sngularly clashes with the pacific assurances OF the
Caribadian party. Between that party and the MAJ
znans there If now, as have already informed you,
a complete solidarity, and as Garibaldi, from III
health aud infrmity, becomes daily more unified for
public life, Mazzini's influence over the democratic
party always great Is now more powerful than ever.
Under Mazzini's auspices there has been formed In
Italy q republican alliance, the object OF which Is
the overthrow VI the Italian monarchy. Tie exist
ence OF this association was made known by the
publication Of q proclamation Issued by one OF the
committees, styling itself Committee No. 10, so that
we may logically conclude there are ut least nine
other bodies OF the Kind for the propagation Of
