A Procession in Humbert’s Honor Attacked in Florence. TERROR IN GERMANY [BY caBLE 10 THE HERALD.) Naruxs, Nov. 18, 1878. The attempted assassination of King Humbert is the only theme of conversation here. The police have been exceedingly active to-day. ‘The abode of Giovanni Passanante was thoroughly searched during the night and this mori- ing, and many letters from Interna- tionalists, not only in Italy but in other parts of Europe, were found, Enough evi- dence has been secured, it is asserted by the authorities, to positively connect the assassin with the International Society, and indicate that Passanante’s act was planned several days beiore the visit of the King. to ANARCHY STALKS ABLOD. Evidence implicating well known mem- bers of the organization was secured, and the arrest of sevetal of the supposed conspirators followed to-day. It is feared that the most important coadjutors of TPassanante have saved themselves by leaving the city during the night; but descriptions of the men have been forwarded by telegraph in all direc- tions, and it is thought that they cannot escape capture. THE KING'S WOUNDS, The wounds inflicted on King Humbert and Signor Cairoli, President of the Cabi- net, were only slight, The King had, be- fore his departure from Rome, received let- ters informing him that he would be attacked at Naples. MORE POPULAR TRAN VER. The effect of this dastardly attempt upon the King’s life is to render Humbert more popular to the Italian people than befare, The city rings with his praise to-night, and all day long tl bells have chimed and thanks have been offered up at the churches. BaPPY CAIROLL Signor Cairoli, answering the congratula- tions which are flowing in upon him from all sides, says, ‘I am fortunate in haying shed my blood for my sovereign.” THE KING'S DEVENCE. Further particulars of the attempted as- sassination show that the King strack the assassin on the head with his sheathed sword immediately on being attacked, Signor Cairoli grappled des. perately with the man and received along but not deep wound, which caused considerable loss of blood. He is now con- fined to his bed. Surgeons declare that the knife found is not the one with which the wounds were inflicted. ANOTHER “‘CLEW” TO. “THE soctETY.” It is reported that the Italian Embassy in Paris was warned of the probability of a Socialist attempt upon the King’s life. JOY OF THE NEAPOLITAN.

Emperor William was deeply moved on hearing of the attempted assassination of King Humbert, following, as it did, so after the dastardly attempts his own person and King Al- fonso. He immediately telegraphed King Humbert, thanking God for his escape from the assassin’s knife, and expressing intense gratitude to the Almighty for the wonder- ful escape of the Queen and the Crown Prince Victor Emmanuel. Prince Bismarck like- wise telegraphed the King of Italy, con- gratulating him upon his escape from the assassin. i soon on SPREAD OF THE TERROR, A genéral belief prevails here in the exis- tence of a widespread International plot against the lives of the leading sov- ereigns of Europe. Among the people the feeling is almost that of terror. Many ' distinguished men have to-day urged upon the government the necessity of strengthening the guards at the royal palace.- The Emperor William and Crown Prince Frederick William are implored to observe the greatest precautions. WHOLESALE ASSASSINATION OP KINGS, [BY CABLE TO THE HERALD.) Lonxpox, Nov. 19, 1878. A telegram from Berlin reports that the belief is current there that a plot exists for the assassination of all sov- ereigns, - It is stated that the Prussian Judges, when examining Nobiling’s case, were led to believe in the existence of a central organization for this purpose, and investigations are still going on. NATURE OF THE WOUNDS, ‘Tho popular indignation and excitement through- out Italy over the attempt to assassinate King Hum- bert is very great. ‘The report is confirmed that the wounds of the King an@ Signor Cairoli are slight. ‘The former received a slight scratch on the left arm and the latter was slightly wounded jn the left thigh. AMONG THE ITALIANS OF NEW YORK, Among the Italians of this city the news of the at- tempted assassination of King Humbert created quite aripple of excitement. It would appear from conver" sation with numerons Italian residents, yesterday, that the Italians of New York adhere, with a consider- able measure of loyalty, to the dynasty of Victor Emmanuel, and the assassin seemed to have no sympa" thizers whatever. The Italian Consul General, Mr. di Lucca, is away on an extended leave of absence, and it is thought that he will probably not return from Italy to this city, but be promoted to the position of Italian Minister to China. In’ his absence, M. di Marefoschi, the Vice-Consul, afforded the writer some interesting information in connection with the attempted assassination. He said he did not believe it originated from any movement of any secret society or communistic or socialistic body, and was simply the work of some hungry, poverty- stricken, crack-brained wretch, who probably relied upon the well known clemency of King Humbert for his salvation from the death penalty. In the Romagna and in Sicily some secret political socicties still existed, and had the crime taken place there M. Merafoschi would not have hesitated to attribute it to them; but the fact that it was perpetrated at Naples served him as evidence that it was merely an isolated, individual THE MARQUIS OF LORNE.

Extensive preparations are inaking by the managers of the Intercolonial Railway for the transit of the Marguis of Lorne end the Princess Louise from Hali- fax to Riviere du Loup, The oldest and most expe enced onticials of the line are to be placed in charge of the trains.

INTERVIEW WITH THE MISSISSIPPI SENATOR— NO EVIDENCE OF CHANGE IN THE PRESIDENT'S POLICY AND NO CAUSE FOR ANY---THE ELEC- TIONS IN THE SOUTH—SOUTHERN SENTIMENT ON THE TICKET FoR 1880, [BY TELEGRAPH TO THE HERALD.) Crxctynaty, Nov, 18, 1878. Sonator Lamar, of Mississippi, was here to-night en route for Washington, with his family, and in re- sponee to an allusion to the recently reported change in President Hayes’ Southern policy said :— “T see in the papers certain declarations ascribed to the President from which an inference bas been drawn of the kind to which you alinde. I doubt if he has gone any further than to express disappointment and disapprobation of certain exaggerated reports of pro- ceedings in two Southern States, which*have been re- ported to him by republican officials and defeated aspirants, But he has not yet, so far as I can see, indicated any purpose to change his policy, which has so much improved the conditions of Southern society, including both races, and tended to restore anity between the sections. Ido not believe, with the evidence before me, that he intends by military force or Executive interference to control elections in the Southern States. He is bound by the most solemn pledges before the country not to up- hold by force those governments which were estab- lished in. the South under bayonet rule. In the recent elections, whether in the triumph of democrat or re- Fp tpee there has been nothing to show a popular pproval of that policy, but everything to show caer it maets the sanction und support of all the States, He will find nothing occurring in the South to justify ay abandonment of that policy or depart- ure from if. Pretexts may be found, but they will be pure pretexts and nothing else.” ‘RHE ELECTIONS IN THE SOUTH. “How wee the elections generally conducted in the South ?”” was asked, “In my State they were as peaceable as any election in the world could possibly be,” said Mr. Lamar. “Not a human gy was iolested or made sfraid.

Many of them will be utterly wrecked and several brokers will also be seriously hurt, as to the cause of the panic. Some as- sert that the cross cuts have nothing to do with it; that it was deliberately planned by Flood and Mackey for the purpose of bearing Skae and obtaining control of Sierra Nevada. In answer to this, however, others point out the fact that the stocks controlled by Flood have bee selling at the rate of from $60,000,000 to $80,000,000, while Skae’s stocks have never exceeded one-third as much.
