The PdU Mall Gazette says:-It is stated
that when the manager of the theatre at Turin
was about to put on the stage representation
of the story of the Nun of Cracrow, the young
men of the city went to him and declared that
not one of them would attend his house again if
the Objectionable piece was not withdrawn,
which was accordingly done. This wholesome
indignation is attributed entirely to the influence
Of Don Bosco, who has under his direction the
oratory of st. Francis of Sales, with its sodalites
of young men. The oratory has more than 5000
members among the junior laymen, and not one
of Don Boscos spiritual children has ever been

this city make them equally critical as regards

Various alarming rumors have been circu-

Bismark, and is the work of the reactionists.
headed by General Won Manteutfel, who hope
by an Austrian alliance to gain support against
their enemies the Liberals. The Crown
Prince. it is added, Notwithstanding his Liberal
sympathies, has become the tool of the reaction
lists, who have persuaded him that rapproche-
| ment with Austria would both secure the peace
! full development of Germany, and counteract the
influence in home politics of his adversary Bis
| mark. These plans having been carried, not
| withstandng the Counts opposition, the latter
| is to place his resignation in the hands of the
| King, who will at once appoint his old friend
| Manteuffel at the head of the Prussian Ministry,
| steadfastly oppose all unionist tendencies in
| Germany, and thus regain the friendship of

during the Garibaldan expedition in 1861 was
christened by the Ncapolitan sailors "the little
