The editor of the Baltimore
American writes from Naples:
"Paris is regarded as a bright and
stirring city, and so it is, in spots.
Some parts of Paris are as full of life
as Naples, but Naples is in a blaze
all the time all over. 1t has no
quiet spots. Everybody seems to
be excited and in a Geyerish condi-
ton. In its broad streets, as well
as in its narrow ones, men, women
and children appear to be at fever
heat, and the whole population are
on the streets all the time. The
carriages on the Corso and the
Toledo in the afternoon never move
along %leisurely, but whips are
cracking and drivers shouting as if
they were engaged in a race. AS
soon as we got relieved Of the dust
Of travel and obtained some re-
freshment, we were flying along
among this maze of carriages, pri-
vate and public, which poured
down from the Toledo and thronged
the Corso. This latter thorough
fare has been extended, and winds
around and up the sides of the
mountain upon which old Naples
is located, and the whole front of
the city has been changed, extended
and beautifed. Naples is a diff
ferent city to what it was under old
King Bomba, and has improved as
much as Rome has since it came
under the dominion Of Victor
Emanuel. It has now a population
of about 100000, and is the largest
city in Italy.
