sTAEs COURT.

Nothing of any consequence transpired at
this court this morning. There was the usual
number of DRINKS, disorderly persons, va
grants and bummers arraigned, whose cases
were quickly disposed Of The cases of L.
Lippman, Chas. Randolph and Chas Tromp,
for assault and battery, and the State vs.. John
Daley, for assault with intent to kill, also
came up for trial. The former were dismissed,
as there was no case made out against the
prisoners: the latter was postponed indefi-
nitely, under $4,000 bonds for the appearance
of prisoner when wanted.
This completed the docket for this morning.

THE LEADING INDUSTRY OF ITALY.

It has become custom to speak of the
Italians as ..lazy' or ''shiftless," and to ap-
ply to them several other unpleasant epithets.
/ am afraid have INDUCED in this pernicious
habit myself, and here, before it is too Late,
wish to do what I can to rectify the error.
Probably in no country in the world are the
people more universally industrious. Beg
ging, the most disagreeable feature Of their
civilization, is also the most obtrusive, yet
there may be some excuse for this. Begging
is kind of industry; the vast multitude OF
dame, halt and bind in Italy cannot work; the
people are for the most part miserably poor;
where nearly every able-bodied man, woman
end child is employed in some sort of indus
try, there is nothing left for some OF the
willing hands to do.
In Naples, the city of lazzaroni, who are
the embodiment OF all that is provoking,
amable and helplessly indolent, nearly every
woman one meets Of the poorer class is either
spinning with an antique, primitive, distatt,
,cr knitting, or busying herself about seme-
thing; the men are off at work; even the
children are occupied in some way. have
