From a London Letter.

From the regular London correspond
in the San Francisco CIroRicIe of Feb.
Z, we make the following extracts:
GARIBAIDI ON HIS FEET AGAIN
-Garibaldi has been elected by the
I town of Ozieri in Sardinia, as it's repres
( sentative liz the Italian Parliament. In
| his address accepting the trus: he makes
use of strong denunciatory expressions.
! The Italian Government he styles the
"negation of God. Victor Emanuel
| king Honest NAM he accuses of being
the lacquey of the Tuileries. The Pa
pacy he describes as the Government OF
| Satan. The Pope he terms q vampire.
He then gives an eloquent sketch OF
what he himself accomplished TO secure
freedom TO Italy, and of the treachery
through which his army was again and
again defeated. The language of the
address is in the highest degree violent,
but the facts which he relates justities
supreme indignation.
The MOUNT OF OLIvEs.-ls there any
thing too sacred to become private prop
erty? The Mount of Olives was pur~
chased by the Princess de la Tour d'Au~
vergne, and through her has now be-
come the property OF the crown OF
France
THE SIAMEsE TWINS are now holding
levees in Glasgow. Two of their daugh-
ters are with them. 1t ia said that the
American war has caused the twins
great monetary losses. They have now
nearly completed three-score years.
Thus late in life they have conceived a
strong desire to be separated, and are
seeking the advice of the best medical
men OF Europe. Professor Syme, OF
Edinburg, sets forth that there is dis
tinctly a communication between the
two trunks, and that the operation
would be fatal to both twins. Sir James
Simpson agrees with him. But the
twins, who have either found each 9TH
er's inevitable society intolerable or are
fearful that the decease of the one must
cause that of the other, are in search of
some bolder or wiser operator, and are
about to start for Paris To submit their
case to the Professors of the French
Capital.
CELESTIAL BIRDs'-NEsT SoUP.-The
great delicacy of the season, ess
pecially for dyspeptics, who are benefit
ed by the pepsine il contains. is birds
nests from the Celestial Empire made
into soup Ii is considered an epicus
rean dish by the Chinese and an excel~
lent tonic for weak digestions. Paris
long ago pronounced il delicious, but
England has only begun to discover it's
palatableness.
CoRPsEs WASHED ON SHoRE.-Yes-
terday brought the ominous tele-
graphic news from Corunna that corpsee
have been coming on shore for several
days along the line of the Spanish
coast. Already forty-seven have been
cast up. No clue to the terrible disas-
ter of which these sad waits are the ev-
ide-ce, has yet been given. 1t is pre-
sumed that the catastrophe must be of
very recent occurrence. IL is a mistake
to suppose that those drowned at sea
rest at the bottom they float and drift
until the sea-birds and fishes have de-
voured them sufficiently to allow their
mutilated remains TO sink again TO the
of the ocean
Miss BATEMAN has just concluded q

She has presented her agent. Mr.. Joy.

gold with an inscription.
