Meanwhile, what became of the British merchaut? Mr. Hazeon had refused to obey Garza’s invitation, and the next day after his refusal bad been announced four officers presented themselves at his house to take him away by force. Mr. Hazeon declined obedience to this second more forcible form of request. The British Consul, who bad been duly apprised of this violent proceeding, went straightway to Mr. Hazeo determined to give bim ail the assistance in bis power A posse of soldiers—if, indved, the ruffian= wader Garza's orders deserve so honorable a name—were despatched to the ‘nfortunate merchant's house to take him away by force.

The merchaat was violently’ seized and hurried away; vor did his fate ultunately diiter in any respect from the fate of the unfor- tomate gentiemen who had been committed to jatl the night before.

From the St, Petersburg Gazette (Russia), Oct. 27.] ‘or centuries offorts to improve men and things have been made, and yet now, in the heart of Europe, at Rome, family rights—the rights of father and mother, which form the corner stone of the social edifice, are not only not protected, but are trampled under foot, and grave dis- cussions on regulations and customs which permit young Mortara to be carried off from the paternal home a: dulged in. Extraordinary to relate, this act finds defend- ere, and follows the course a an ordinary process, As for ourseives, we cavnot defend this immoral act.
