purporting to be between Mazzini and

n letter written by ATazzini to Bis

of the existence of an alliance between
France and Italy BY concession rela-
tive to Rome. That France has
secured Italian aid in case of n war

nished with n million lire and arms,
to Illustrate the scheme by efIecting

that the Information is trustworthy,

for it.
