at the railway station has seldom been beheld.

ton of a report that the general was ill., He
was carried from the train on a mattress
placed on large litter. He lay extended
and motionless, with eyes closed and red
handkerchief bound around his head. It
looked as though corpse was being carried
ir state. It was found impossible to move
him from the litter, which was placed on the
top Of a carriage and driven, accompanied by
a mournfully silent crowd, to the house Of
his son, Mcnnotti Garibaldi. 1t was impossi-
BILE to remove the general at Civi.a Veechia.
The side of the railway saloon was cut to ad j.
NIT the littc:. The general slept we'll, howev-

within few weeks. His f.lends assert
that politics are wholly unconnected with
his coming here. He found that his health
was not improving at Caprera and thought
tha mineral springs near Civita Veechia
might benefit his gout. Garibaldi, replying
to the syndic who visited him ou his arrival
said he did not himself know the reason Of
his visit. Some say Garibaldi came to Rome
to die.
