gen. Mr.. Prizes being well acquainted

pie, can make the Grayling House, in
all respects, to which 1t Is entitled, a

As an introduction and to make the
acquaintance of our patrons, we

Rome May 5.-In the Chamber Of Depu-
ties to-day, during the debate on the for
eign estimates, Baron Blanc, the minister
of foreign affairs, said in regard to the
conditions imposed upon Italian emf
grants 1--WE have been in negotiation
with the United States government
and have the satisfaction to an
nOunce that we have found the
authorities at Washington TO be most
anxious to cooperate with US, with the
view Of protecting our emigrants from
the snares of so-called agents and bankers
at the ports of arrival, and to put them
in the way of embarking in profitable
agricultural pursuits. We hope to attain
the same result with Mexico, whose gov
ernment appears to be well disposed"
THE NEW ORLEANS AFFAIR.
Baron Blanc proceeded to refute the
assertion of one of the deputies who
claimed that the New Orleans affair
nearly led to the dispatch of Italian men
Of war to the United States, saying: 1.-The
barbarous lynch law, falling upon inno-
cent Italians. unfortunately inter
rupted the friendly relations ex-
isting between the two coun tries,
and served to tho profit of the
illegal associations which proved upon
our emigrants. l believe that the resto-
ration Of harmony will have the effect Of
delivering Italian emigrants from local
tyranny, and that it will direct them to
new fields of agriculture and colonial
tion, especially in the southern states Of
America, where Spanish is spoken, and
where the climate is similar TO that of

beyond that l was innocent. Whatever
charge Of any kind is made against me by
