refused consider the Convention as no longer OF any

cries and demeanor but Sunday last there was little
enthusiasm, rather, great order and tranquility The
procession moved in silence only raising cries at in

mark important in the history of human progress
and it is privilege TO have witnessed the uprising of
people who have for years. nay for centuries been de-
pressed and degraded by the most wonderful sacerdota
despOtsn mankind has witnessed. From the Pre-
lecture, the procession moved on 10 the Municipality
where address to His Majesty placed in the hands
Of the syndic with request that he would forward it to
the King The address prayed for that which had already
been granted and in few hours Naples was informed OF
the decision.
Beside that OF the communication 10 the French Gov
ernment, there another reason for delay. His
Holiness had be informed of the intentions Of the
Italian Government and until the special ambassadors
from Rome it deemed scarcely right to cross

in stating that the Pope Teccivedl the Count
agTeelbly, though he intimatcd his intention
not to yield 10 violence, adding that though
the Italian troops might take possession Of tine
provinces they would never enter Rome. Whether His
Holiness puts his trust in physical spiritual protee

moment no miracle has been wrought, and the small
force at his command reduced still iy the recall Of

the Pope has ordered the cannon De from the

than many Of his fanatical supporters.
Let us now trace the Of the several idysOns Of
the Italian army in their occupation Of the Pontinca
states. Monday morning, the 18th Of September, was
the day on which they crossed. Gen. CadUrna the
north passed at san Fclcc and marched 10 Ciyita
Casteana while Gen. Bixio, who played distinguished
part in Sicily under Garbadi entered by Vterbo Bag
norea and Monehascone. Gen. Angioett, who crossed
the southern frontier, passed from IsoIetea
to CipranO, and so on by the towns tray-
ersed by the railway. There was the greatest
enthusiasm exhibited the mOrth, might have been
expected from people of frmer fiber, and more per
meated with the spirit Of liberty. In Yerbo the Italian
Dag was everywhere displayed the Papal arms were
taken down. and the inhabitants pursued and arrested
many Zouaves Col de Charrete, gallant and devoted
defender of the Church. who In command retired

that place against all comers, but though its forti-

The garrison OF Monehascone consisting OF between 200

without firing shot, while about 20 Zouaves with their
officers surrendered without resistance at Bagnorea.

was made at Ciyta Casteana, where officers shut

road was open TO Rome, and we waiting you may
imagine with much interest to hear what events have
taken place there.
