No small excitement was created in Eu ropean, but especially in English society, some weeks ago, when, at the trial of GEE co, and other Italians who had conspired to assassinate the Emperor of the French, it Was charged that they bad been incited, commissioned, and paid by MasziNl, and that a member of the House of Commons, also one of Lord PALMERSTOM'S colleagues in office, was mixed up with this murderous conspiracy. The accusation, made with great earnestness and reiteration, was ut tered, on the trial, by M. CORDEON, the procure ur genCnal imperial, (equivalent to our district attorney,) and there was tacked to it the additional imputation that the ac cused English official had subscribed to pre vious anti-NaPoLnow plots got up by MAZ MN; that - he was in habits of the greatest in timacy with Mezzutt, and that he was the confidential recipient of letters addressed to MAzzuvr, under a feigned name. M. Cox -MON said that among the papers found in possession of Glace° and his fellow-conspira tors, was one which said that letters for MAz m would reach him, if addressed to "Mr. 'FLOWER, 35 Thurloe-square, London," and that, on examining Kelly's Post-office Directory, he found that 35 Thurloe square was the residence of Mr. JAMES STANSFELD, a Junior Lord of the Admiralty and M. P. for the borough of Halitax. Before proceeding further, it may be as well to say who Mr. STAITSFELD is. He is a Yorkshirerhan, now forty-four years old, who has represented his native town of Halifax since April, 1859. Although he was called to the bar ten years before that, lie does not practise, but is partner, In a large London brewery. - Abiding .very libe ral opinions—of the Bright rather than the Palmerston complexionand being" a care ful, hardworking man on parliamentary committees, and occasionally even an elo quent speaker, it was thought fit to at tach him, by office, to the Palmerston Government. Accordingly he was ten dered the office of Junior Lord of the Ad miralty, in which position he has fully equalled the expectations formed of his ability and tact. No doubt he was hap pily selected to strengthen the Government in the Commons. Josarri litszzurr, the Italian politician and revolutionist, is much better known than JAMES STAIN/FELD. A. native of Genoa, and now between fifty and sixty years old, he abandoned law for politics at an early age. An United Italy was his dream, at a time when of his country might be said, "'Twin/ treason to love her, and death to defend." He established a newspaper in which he declared his liberal principles, with equal boldness and ability, was imprisoned, and, without trial, was shipped off into exile. In Marseilles, in the early part of the reign of Lours Panarnx, MAzzINI started a po litical journal, in which he strongly pressed for the unity and independence of Italy, at a republic. Ordered out of France, he found safety in London, where he established another public journal, and led the "Toting Italy" movement. Te) the eter nal disgrace of the Peel Ministry, Sir ..I.anns GRAHAM, Home Secretary, stoop ing to become an agent in the base es pionage of Austtia, ordered MA22.trula letters to be opened in the Post-office, and betrayed their contents to the authori ties at Vienna. From that time lifezzraes more prlfate letters were addressed to other persons, whom he could trust. He flung himself into the revolution of 1848, was a Triumvir of the newly-organized Boman Republic, became the soul of the defence of the Eternal City against the French, and bad to return to England when the French army occupied Rome. After GARIBALDI'S successes in Sicily and Naples, 3lszztm re turned to Italy, where he pursued the set- tied purpose of his life, the establishment of an Italian Republic, with Rome for its capitaL Latterly, he has been in London. Accused of complicity in various plots against Lows NAPOLEON, it may be doubt ed whether Mazzuir has ever adopted the principle that the end justifies the means— has ever desired that Louis NAPOLEON, whom he looks on as the enemy of freedom, should be removed by plot and violence; on the contrary, Mr CARLYLE. and otheis have borne testimony to his mild disposi tion and virtuous character. The Opposition party in the House of Commons did not fail to seize upon and make damaging use of the French accusa tion against Mr. STANSFELD. They asked, "Is it true? If not true, why not have at once denied and disproved the charge ? Does Mr. STANSFILLD know a Mr. FLOW ER Are letters addressed to `Mr. FLowltlt ' received at Mr. STANSFELD'S residence, and finally handed to MAZZINI ?" To these questions, Mr. STANBFELD did not give a direct and satisfying reply. He avowed his long friendship with and great regard for MAzzult, who, he said, was in- capable of joining in any conspiracy which bad assassination for its object; letters to "Mr. FLOWER" may have been addressed to his (STANSFELD 7 B) private residence ; he did not know a " Mr. FLOWER," but evaded saying whether he did not know that MAzzixr and "Mr. FLOWER." were one and The same person. Lord PALMERSTON came to his aid, gallantly defended him as a colleague, declined accepting his resignation as a Lord of the Admiralty, and boldly championed him. But, during the recent Easter holi days, it was whispered that the Opposition meant to renew their charges against Mr. STAN VELD, and it Was known that H. COEDEON, on the trial of Mazzlitr, (in hie absence,) had repeated, even with in creased bitterness and force, his accusa tions against Mr. STANSFELD. So , on the reassembling of Parliament, on April 4th, Mr. STAWBVELD announced that he had again tendered the resignation of his office, and that it had been accepted. Lord PAL AIERSTON eulogized him, but added, with great emphasis, that he considered the safety of Loins NAPOLEON and the con tinuance of his dynasty of the greatest im portance to the, tranquillity and prosperity of Europe. The history and mystery orthis STANS Intim case has not been yet stated in any English journal, bit is as follows : When Idazzin" brat went to London, he became intimate with the late w ..If.TTAM Hg say ASitintsll, a leading solicitor in the city, who held the most extreme liberal, and even revolutionary principles, and did act, on various occasions, as treasurer of great movement schemes, which, from Mszarsit down to KossuTa, were got up—and failed. Mr. BTATIEFSLD, then a very young man, also became intimate at Mr. ABM:MST'S, and, in 1844, when he was only twenty-four years old, married CAROLINE, eldest daugh ter of Mr. ABILUBBT. Thus his acquaint ance with Mozart" was commenced. At one time MAzznsl had a private secretary named Fiona—which means a flower in the Italian. Here we have "-Mr. nowan," to whom, alter Gneneat's nefarious letter opening, Mozzimrs correspondence was sometimes addressed. More than this, in what may be called street Italian, flinch as one hears daily on the Lung' Arno, or in the Chiaja,) flower is a sort of idiomatic English for lfazzini: "Mazza di ftori," or, the strict idiom cut down to "Mazza," meaning a bunch of flowers, a nosegay; and " Mazzini," a lit tle nosegay, a single flower. Evidently, then, though Mr. STAPSFBLD might have truly said that he did not know any " Mr. FLowan," it is hard to believe that he was ignorant that Mezzira was the person so addressed in letters which reached his -(STAxismn's) house. The wonder is that Mr. STANSFELD should have shirked and shuffled as he did, wfien he might have said, "to prevent Mazzrair's letters being again opened in the Post-office, it became necessary to address him as Mr. Flow- BR,' and I gave him leave to have letters di rected to my house. Of course, being ig norant of the contents of- such letters, I am not responsible for a line in them." Had Sr, 13TifilifOUD frankly stated this, an ex, , planation but neither apology nor defence, he would have disarmed hostility. The worst thing a public man can do is to give a wide berth to Truth, and take shuffling and evasion as her substitutes. LETTER FROM "OCCASIONAL:' WAsttmorow, April 26, 1864. One of the conspicuous features of the New York fair, just ended, was the expen sive dresses of the ladies. A gentleman who made a tour of that vast demonstration, rivaling, as it did, the World's Exposition in London, tells me that the splendor and costliness of the attire of the women was the most painful sight that greeted his eyes. I fear his remark applied to New York is more or less true of all the loyal States. Do we not know that it is true ? It is a ghastly spectacle, in the midst of such a tragedy as this, to see jewels, and embroidery, and Oriental splendor, where we should find only quiet good taste, and the ever.present example of economy and frugality. These decorations are like diamonds upon corpses, or wreaths upon skeletons—horrible mockeries of the truth, and insults to the holiest sensibilities. The desire of display extends to all classes.. Not alone the elegant lady, educated and re fined, but the servant girl, whose wages are supposed to be barely sufficient for her ordinary wants, is controlled by it. On Funday last a gentleman pointed me to a well-dressed woman, whose clothes cer tainly had not Cost less than one hundred dollars, and said,' That is :my cook ! It is common for a woman who gets her nine or ten dollars a month to spend thirty or forty upon a robe. All these expensive articles lead, of course, to other expenses. And such is the rush for these indulgences that domestic manufactures will not answer. Foreign fabrics are chiefly in demand. The consequence is excessive impor tations and a drain of gold for the pay ment of our increasing domestic debt, to the depreciation of our own paper money, the robbing of labor, the fearful ad vance in the necessaries of life, and the fatal embarrassment of the Government. But, you will ask, have you nothing to say of the extravagance of the men ? Yes, far more than of the extravagance of the gen tler sex. But if the American women choose to take the leacl in this great wort they can easily control the American men. I will not insult my fair countrywomen by ask ing them to look at the conduct of their Southern' sisters, whose necessities drive them into a heretofore unpractised economy. But how much more easy for Northern women to give freely from their abundance for the cause of their country ? To do it freely? To do it with all their hearts ? The great June fair in Philadelphia will give the women of Pennsylvania a chance to set an example that will be uni versally followed. When they reflect that they may thus serve their country in a better and a more substantial way than by their other sacrifices, will they not do that which will prove, after all that has been sung and said, to be the chiefest and moat practical of charities ? Ocoesro.wit. The Great Central Fair. From present indications, the great Central Fair for the Sanitary Commission, to be held in this oily in lunenext, will be a grandniece's. Logan Square, the site chosen, is considerably larger than that cos cupied by the one in New York. In this there is the double advantage that it not only gives contributors more room for the display of their goods, but it also will afford the thousands of visitors a better oppor tunity of more thoroughly examining each of the numberless artiolv to be exhibited. The appear ante of the Square within the past week has been materially changed. Mr. Rice, the contractor, has bad engaged a small army of carpenters, who are using their utmost effort, to have the buildings com pleted in ample time for the reception of articles. In the interim, all the committees, embracing the various industrial and commercial pursuits, (over eighty in number,) are working hard—some splen didly. Among the latter is the Committee on Ls. bor, Income, and Revenue, of which L. itiontgome ry Bond, Esq ,is the able chairman. In this com mittee, composed of gentlemen and ladies of the highest standing and position, not only in this State but in New Jersey and Delaware, are those who not only understand how affair' of this kind should be managed, but personalty use their endeavors to carry out the specific duties assigned them, viz : the securing of "one day's labor," or salary, from each employee, "one day's income" from each proles sienal or retired person, and "one day's revenue" from all fume, companies, or corporations in this and the adjoining States. This work is very simple, but it requires time and an immense amount of la• bor to perfect their arrangements so as to reach each of the three classes, and give all the opportual, ty of contributing to the relief of the sick and wounded soldiers. Their machinery has now com menced working, as our advertising columns will show. Subscriptions, in large and small sums, are rapidly coming in from companies, firms, and private citizens. The action of the Board of Presi dents of our City Passenger Railways indicates their interest in the matter. They recommend each road to give "one day's revenue." This has already been acted upon by several of the city passenger railways. The Frankford and Southwark company inaugurated the movement. They were followed by the Green and Coates, as well as the Spruce and Pine. Yesterday the Second and Third gave their gross receipts for "one day's revenue," and the Mar ket-street railway have selected Thursday as a fit ting time to respond to the call. Let all other com panies, and manufacturing establishments in this and the adjoiniag States, speedily follow the exam ple so nobly set, and let this committee, as well as each of the others, continue to use their beat efforts to make our Fair the greatest success of the age. A Letter from the Late Geo. W. Pearce. To a lady who is deeply interested in the Great Central Fair, and who is doing much for its 11100131111, we are indebted for the following noble letter from the late George W. Pearce, editor of the West Ches. ter (Pa.) Republican and Democred. It was written a abort time before his death, in answer to a request made to give a small portion or his paper to the in tweet of the fair. It deserves publicity, not only as showing the generous patriotism and great heart of Mr. Pearce, but as an example to all journalists. The newspapers of the three States which sustain this grand enterprise have already shown honorable interest in its success, and the immense combined influence they wield cannot fail to accomplish vast 'multi. The letter of Mr. Pearce, who shall read without profound admiration of the loyalty that spires its There are none, we trust, who will not gain from it renewed zeal for a work in which every man, woman, and child, is bound, by honor and gratitude, to take share: WASHITTOTOW, D. 0., March 16, 1881. MAE Menem : I am most happy to o ff er you such armee in my paper as you desire, for the ex. cellent purpose you speak of. I rejoice to be able to cooperate in the good work in any and an way. that lay in my power. Our noble and suffering soldiers—what do we not owe them 1 In weariness and painfulnesa, in sor row and hourly peril of Me, they have gone forth from most of the comforts and all of the endear. menu that we treasure so highly, to secure to us, and those who shall come after us, the blessings of a tree and beneficent Owen:meat. Row lightly have the people of this country estimated the pro. tuition which they have received to person and pro. party from this amuse It was only when the grim form of anarchy scowled in upon our peaceful homesteads that we bega l , to whams Ciovernment properly, and pray for its protection. It is because our soldiers form a cordon of safety along the line of the rebellion, that we are not given over to all the calamities following in the train of a dismembered and disrupted country. It is. therefore, not only a duty ' but a high priel• hp to labor, by word and deed, for thole to whom we owe a debt of gratitude that never can be paid. I rejoice that in this day of peril and danger, when I and Myself physically unable to go to the field, that I stand in the position of a public journalist, the nest most effective position to that of the soldier in the Add, And Indeed Ido not know but an indt. vidual may do more good by wielding a loyal pen than a loyal sword. Say to Mr. - that the Republican is not only " oesasionally " at your service in this good work. but at ail times whensoever you desire to use its columns. Wiehing the utmost success to the truly benevo• lent enterprise. and, as a citizen of Cheirter county, thanking you for your effective and unwearied ser vices in behalf of our gallant soldiers, I am faith fully your friend, GEO. W. PEARUE. Obftnstry. The death of Frank l!d. master, M. D., has already been announced, but we do pot hold it right that a man so true and gallant should leave the world without further tribute to hie memory. No man was more devoted to the country than ha ; he proved his devotion throughout the war, and sealed it by his death. Dr. Hiester's sarear in the army can be briefly stated, but it would be impossible to tell what noble actions, sacrifices, and Labors it included. Re entered the service on the 16th of April, 1861, being one of the first to answer the call of the Government. He was elected assistant surgeon to the 68th Pennsylvania Regiment, and in January, 1862, was appointed brigade surgeon, and ordered to south Carolina, in General Wright's divirion. He remained there six months, and was then ordered to General Whipple's brigade, in the Army of the Potomac. When Gen. Wright took command W the Ohio Department be was ordered there as medical inspector, and after wards appointed medical examiner of the Invalid Corps; aftersyards he was ordered to Chattanooga, but,when he arrived at L'onisville,on his way thither, the Surgeon General, seeing he had leered greatly from incessant labor., ordered him home to regain his health by zest. He had a furlough for thirty days to March let, and died on April 16th. He had never left his post Blase the day he enlisted, except on a furlough of one week, until he came home to die. To him, and to all such, let all _honors be paid. The best and great est can do no more than die for their country, and Prank N. Theater was willing to persist in a cause Which he knew to be noble and true. The loos of 'inch men would be irretrievable to the country were it not that they bequeathed an example and an in• aphelion which those who survive may be proud to imitate and feel.

MB MALDEN paillilleging Bilirrunitro.—h ape• alai Boston despatch last evening to the Commercial announced that Edward W. Green, the murderer of Frank E. Converse, teller of the Malden Bank, was sentenced to be hung. The Boston Transcript gives the following par %mhos i .. At the session of the Supreme Judicial Court at Lowell, this morning, - the sentence of death was passed on Edward W. Green the murderer of Frank E. Converse, the teller of the Malden Bank. A. great interest was manifested by the people of Lowell, and the eourt-room, the entries, and' stair. ways, were crowded with would-be spectators, and thole who found it imposeible to gain admit. tance to the hall were gathered about the door, to enjoy a glimpse of the murderer as he passed into the temple of justice. A few minutes before ten O'clock Green entered the oourt•room, in the custody of the officers, and took his scat in the prisoners' dock• As he passed through the room all eyes were directed toward him, but he preserved his former calm deportment. One or two citizens of Maiden were seated near the desk, and at once entered into conversation With Green. He seemed much affected by what was said to him, and was soon observed to weep freely. Messrs. Sweeteer and Griffin, his counsel, also con versed with him for some time. At quarter past ten the 'mutt was formally opened by Judge Hoar. At torney G - eneralFoater then moved that tho sentence ol the law be passed upon Edward W. Green, he having confessed himself guilty of murder in the first degree. The court then directed the clerk to irquire if the prisoner had anything to say why sen tence of death should not be mimed upon him. To this inquiry Green simply replied, "No, str. 7l The judge then addressed the prisoner. Green remained standing until the closing portion of the sentence, when he eat down, and buried- his face in his hand kerchief, apparently weeping. He remained thus a few minutes, and was then taken back to the jatl. When he passed out his eye. were oast down, but his face was calm, and bore no traces of emotion. JOHN N. BOTTS OR TRH SANITARY COMMISSION. —An autograph lettetof Mr. Botts, dated Auburn, Culpeper county, Va.; and exhibited at the New York Fair, has the following I "When I have teen a wounded soldier on the field, I have not stopped to ascertain whether he wore a blue jacket or a gray; it hail been enough for me to know that he was a disabled and suffering fellow-creature to secure for him my sympathy and such comforts as I could bestow ; and such, I he• lieve, have been the instincts of the tlnited States :Sanitary Commission. With this experience, de rived from personal observation, I cannot but ap preciate the generous, noble, and Christian-like ob • jests to be effected by ikhe association of which you are an organ, and therefore it affords me pleasure to comply with your request, by sending this poor contribution to your autograph letters, conoluding with the earnest prayer that the present year may put an end to a conflict which is not only demo ralizing the whole country—bringing grief and Misery to the hearthstones of millions, and seriously affSeting the interests of the world at large—but which is disreputable to civilization and humanity, as well as to the age in which we live," THE Pora.—A letter from Rome in The Temps contains the following "The festival of the Gulden Rosa is approaching. That day is called, in the ea. cleriastical style, Ltetare, Rejoice, 0 Jerusalem,!' The role is not given every year. It is sent about once in every five years to some princess, sanctuary, or city. The Empress Eugenie and Queen Isabella of Spain have both received it. Pope Alexan. der VI. kept the Golden Rose in his own fa inky, giving it to Caesar . and Lucretia Borgia, his son and daughter. Henry iVIII. of England received it with the title of ' Defender of the Faith.' A general error prevail, concerning the tiara worn by the Pope; it is a tell, conical, olose•fltting cap, having on it three crowns pissed above each other, the whole surmounted by a cross. Until the time of Beeline VIII., in 1300, the tiara of the Re. msn Pontiffs had but one Grown; Banff** added a second, probably to signify by a crown over a crown his sovereignty over kings. A French Pope, 13ene. dist XII., added the third. Certain mystical reasons are attributed to him for so doing. He is supposed to have imagined that the first signified the Church militant, the second the Ohuroh suffering, and he wished also to represent the Church triumphant. The tiara designates the material empire, and the mitre the episcopal power. Before the Pope begins officiating he wean the tiara, but during the service it is placed on the altar, and the mitre replaces it on his bead. All the Popes have not had a tiara made for them expressly. The tiaras, to the number of seven or eight, since the great schism, have passed suoceeslve• ly teem& pontiff in the 'Premier' , of the Vatican and are State property. Before the revolution, until the time of Pius VI., the Pontifical Treasury contained the famous tiaras of Jules IL, Paul 111., Gregory XIII., and Clement VIII. They wereof great value, se Pius VI., at the treaty of Telentinto, gave them to represent several ml!lions of franca. By that treaty the Papacy lost all the tiaras. After the French Ckmoordat, Napoleon I. presented a new tiara to Pius VII. In the making of this tiara, which was effected at Paris, a number of the diamonds belonging to the old tiaras were used, as well as a superb emerald belonging to Gre gory XIII. The Napoleon tiara, as it is called, is still in the service of the Papacy. It has been repaired several times, and now serves for Plus IX, and was also made use of by Leon xi., Pius VII., and Gregory XVI. Its value is 217,000 frames, and its weight eight pounds—eight pound', of gold, rubies, pearls. and diamonds ! This tiara is rarely worn. The Napoleon tiara was the only one of value possessed by the Pope, whew in 1855 the Queen of Spain sent another weighing three pounds, and worth about 300,0001. The three crowns in the Isabella tiara are similar, while in the Napoleon one they are varied. It contains 19,000 precious stones. The top of the crown consists of a single sapphire." A EMU BY " BOUXTY4UNPI3II6."--B6ojaMill F. Cox, of the 102 d P. V., Writing front " Clamp Distri bution." near Alexandria, Va., on the 16th, says that a squad of about sixty convalescent aoldiers were sent there, from New York, recently, in nom pany with three hundred " bounty-jumpers."

Tun arwinn PASSOVBII.--Lant Wednes day evening, which corresponds with the 14th day-of the Jewish month Nissn, commenced the feast of Passover, one of the moat important, especially with regard to its dietary regulations, of all the Hebrew holiday.. The festival is instituted to commemo rate the deliverance of the ehildren of Israel from the land of Egypt. It takes its name from the foot that when the Angel or the Lord was smiting the drat born in every Egyptian house, "he passed over" the 'residences of the Israelites. A peculiarity of Wm festival is the eating of Matzoth, or unleavened bread, which is done to commemorate an incident in the hurried departure of the Israelites, by which the dough which they carried across their shoulders was baked in the sun while they traveled. From this occurrence arises the inkinetion- forbidding the use of anything leavened during the Passover. The festival ended last evening.

FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL, TUE MONEY MARKET. l'aminzionaA, Arnil 26, 1664 The action of the Mouse, yeeterday, in passing a reeo• leition adding fifty per cent. to the tariff for sixty days had the sleet of stimulating purchases of gold today. This resolution will affect all goods in bond and all that arrive until July let so the importers are hurrying up matters to save the additional sum, emitting thereby a lively demand for gold: The price ran before noon to 195. It is said that Mr Chaise is in Neer York, and, as his presence there is a great scare to the speculators; gold, in a short time, fell off to MO. bat recovered before Mei close to 15131. To show the process certain parties have in New York oft peculating in large amounts on a small capital, the following history will got lin. out ofplace: A party or coin bivaticn bought a million dollars in gold at a nom in la rate of p rem i um , Be thou bought another million at enyrete at which it was offered. and succeeded in raising the price three or four per cent. He shipped a million to Europe, and drew against it at slaty days' sight. re ceiving greenbacks for his bills. He then bought an. other million gold in such away as Co advance the prise. drew bills at the advance, end chipped the gold. With the proceeds of the bills he again bought more gold. and muted the same process. In this way he assisted in de predating our national currency, and his example was followed by drums of others, who generally succeeded in always making a profit. and whose efforts together have unsettled prices and save Mr. Chase a great deal of trouble.

ANOTHRIt EXPLOBION.—Now that financial ex plosions are not in vogue, steam•boiler explosions occupy the publia mind, and spread devastation and death around. We hope we shall not be called upon to record any more this year at least. Explosions of any kind are not agreeable things, and there is one thing we are certain will never explode—fikat the plan of having the price marked on all goods, as at Charles Stokes & Co.'s Clothing House, under the Continental.

No reason can feel well while a costive habit of body prevails, and no one can expect to enjoy health permanently who permits it, for it is contrary to the economy of the system, and gives rise to a goodly proportiOn of the ills Which *Wet the human race. To negleet it, therefore, is to Insure ill health of greater or less duration ; yet, in attempting its re moval, discrimination with regard to the remedies to be used is requisite. Vialentpurgsfiver temporari ly remove obstructions, weaken the bowels, and re duce the strength of the patient, and are followed usually by greater constipation,rendering another and another dose necessary , unti even the strongest purgatives lam their effect, and the patient's condi tion blames deplorable. What is required is a gentle purgative, one having some action on the liver, and one that can be taken daily without pairing the strength of the patient or injury to the system, until the tendency to constipation is re moved. But fele remedies have been found to meet these requirements, and of these few probably none have been so successful, as demonstrated by many years' use, as Dr. D. -TATIFS'S.SAMATIVB PILLS. They are usually taken Avery: night at bed.time, musing, in proper des* no intOnVenieboe during the night, and producing no dolmens or unpleasant effect during the day, so that persons may follow their usual avocations, whether of business or plea. sure, in the same manner as if they had not taken the Pills. Their good effect will begin to be obvious after a week or two's use, particularly in greater clearness of mind and an increased energy and dispo sition to work and to enjoy life, and their continued use in the restoration of health to the patient.
