MONDAY MORNING, JAN. 7, 1861.
TILL ROBBE'RS OINIrAYLES.
The Naples correspondent of the Morning
Post, in naticing the prevalence of robberies in
thau city, gives an account of the singular or
gaeizatiou by which the Neapolitan thievee are
beaded together : •
" The regular Neapolitan thieves are, far the
most part, well known to the police cifteers, and
even to the population generally; but few per-
Loos have sufficient Courage to denounce them,
iu c• nse quence of their forming a widely-vs--
tended socifly, one with vast ramifica.ions,
and exercising a surprising amount of power
over all classes of society, so that the individual
who vt ntures to prosecute one of its members,
or to appear as a vvitttesg against hict,is tole
rably sure of getting into trouble. This immense
gang is known by the name of "The Company
of the Cemorristi." It includes countless grades
in its vast. body. There is the common pickpock
et,the daring burglar, awl the polished, affable,
accomplishedswindler. They go to work in the
following way: Every mornings certain number
of the Catnorrisli at e told ollevhose business is to
collect contributions for the day. They spread
themselves over the whole city, but chiefly
take their stand about the vegetable and fish
markets, or in fact, wherever provisions for
daily consumption are being sold. Each vendor,
as he enters the market, is compelled to pay
to the agents of the Clunorristi Whatever sum
they may demand. A countryman, for example,
brings his basket of fresh eggs, which he might
hope to dispose of for ten carlini. The Camor
rista presents himself to the countryman, and
says, My worthy friend, you must pay me
three earlini.' The Neapolitan [lodge is well
aware thst he must submit to the inexorable
logic of facts,' and therefore pays. Of course
the countryman claps other three carlini on
the contents of the basket,- to compensate bim
for the extorted tribute, and every man in
Naples who buys an egg from him pays his
ndireet contribution to the impost of the Ca-
morristi. Now what is here practiced in the
case of the petty venlor of ergs, and with him
only to the amounrof three carlini, is practiced
in every branch of trade throughout Naples,
in proportion to the importance which such
industry or commerce may possess. To the
demand of tribute thus made by the Camorristi
no resistance is offered—no attempt to procure
an abatement of the sum ; still less does the
person arbitrarily taxed dare to denounce the
extortioner to the police; for he knows right
well that before sunset he would, in all proba
bility, be soundly cudgelled, and perhaps be-
tnre neat sunrise would have his Liu oat cut.—
Such at least was the state of matters under
rue old Bourbon police. No one dared to de
nounce to its officers the extortions of the
Gamorristi; for it was no orious that Many of
the police themselves were ' the most active
menit.ers of the gang; so that the tradesman
who gave information to the police became
known at once to the whole .body, and was
Jpectlily made away with. From the wealthier
merchantsthe tax is not levied in money, but.
toe Camorristi coolly enters the shop, choosing
whatever suits his fancy, tells the shopkeeper
to send in his account as soon as he likes,
walks off with his booty, nod the plundered
iraiestnan, if he knows, or as soon ne he knows,
that his cusionier is a Comorristi, can only
shrug his should.-rs and thank his stars tont
on worse thing has befall , it him. In the Nes
oolitsn • hells' the Camoriisii regularly plants
detreb by the side or the ,roupier, ,+u.l levies
his per cetdage on every stake. Ae often as a
eabman gets a fare of a catlini or 10 grani,
about the lowest tare be can have, he is obiged
to pay one grani, or 10 per cent., to the Cam
orrista, who is pret y certain to be loitering not
tar off. Throughout the whole gang there
exist the most perfect discipline and subordi
nation to the chiefs, and these extend so far
that when, occasionally, a great robbery has
been committed, and in consequence of the
publicity it becomes neees-ary for the decorum
and character of the police that some individual
shall be arrested, the Camorristi, by whom the
robbery was planned and executed designate
one of their own members as the scapegoat,.
the apparent thief, thuugh perhaps he has not
had the slightest shore in that particular crime.
And it is a well-known fact that the Camorristi
who is thus sacrificed for the common interests
of the gang commonly plays his part to the
last with unshrinking nerve—undergoes the
formalities of his trial—is sentenced to the
galleys—suffers the sentence without uttering
a syllable—indeed, suffers everything because
the Camorristi have thus decreed and willed.—
But even when sent to the galleys he knows
that the Camorristi will not desert him. By
some mysterious process he finds within the
prison walls comforts unknown to his fellow
prisoners. The Camorristi never lose sight of
him whose fidelity has been proved. They
think and act for him, and he in return stilt
thinks and acts for them. In this new position
he becomes a member of the Societe Chiusa,
or close gang, consisting of those members of
the Camorristi who are in prisons or in the
galleys. These Chiusa still keep up a corres
pondence with the heads of the gang in the
capital. They levy their tribute on the pris
oners unconnected with their body who are
enclosed within the same walls, one seld. in
bears indeed of a case in which the Camorristi,
appointed to collect for the whole body, are
found guilty of malvertittion. The sums ob
tained by them are punctually paid into the
caisse of the gang, and the same punctuality is
observed, with the remittances regularly made
by the members in the public prisons. When,
as sometimes happens, a Carnorristi has been
condemned to death,d
an_, from the scandal of
the case, his accomplices are unable to rescue
him, the lictim generally dies content , d. In
deed till the very last moment he cherishes the
hope that, by some ingenious stratagem, some
secret influence, or even some daring violence
displayed in nis behalf, the sentence will be
prevented from taking place. The victims thus
selected are always the novices of their order.
The qualifications for admittance into the gang
are the proofs which the candidate has given
of his skill in theft, or of dexterity in wielding
the assassin's knife. The ramifications of the
Camorri extend even to the army."
The new police force, which is recruited in
great part from Tuscans, Lombards, and Pied
montese, neither sympathizes with nor dreads
this terrible gang. , t Within the last few days
about 30 of the members haie been arrested,
and amongst them even two or three of the
leaders,"

So peculiar, so striking were the CataCOMbS
of Paris, that although upwards of a quarter
of a century has passed away since I visited
theta, I still find them vividly reflected on the
mirror of toy memory; and as they have now
been shut up for the IMO twenty .)cars, and
will probably never again be thrown open, a
short sketch of my visit to them may, per
haps,
be not wholly uninteresting. As'l have
already said, it was some thirty years since,
one fi e morning, we drove. forth to see the
catacombs.
Slimly after passing the harrier, our car
riage came to a halt, and we all alighted.-.
Within a few yards of the road we found the
entrance to the catacombs. Here we were met
by g guide, who distributed two or three unlit
taperi amongst the gentleman of the party.
This was a mere precautionary measure; but
more than one rose faded from a fair cheek, as
this hint of a possibility of danger was com
municated to the party.
We now made a tedious descent down a cork
screw flight of steps, about one hundred an
twenty or onelundred and thirty in numbe
our only light being the lighted torch carrie
by our cicerone. The tail of the party (for wo
could only go down two abreast) were left wholly
in the dark. On ordinary occasions such a
circumstance would have elicited fun and frolic;
but at the present moment not a titter was
heard, not a joke was uttered. The rear kepi,
as close as they could to the leading persona,
apparently deeply awed at the idea of thus
approaching the most extensive place of Jinni=
sepulchre existing in the known world.
In five minutes we had all descended, and as
we gathered into a circle at the foot of the
stairs, the guide held his torch on high, and
waved it to and fro, the better to display the
scene around us.
We were in a chamber (or rather cellar)
hewed out of the gelid rock, which was some
what elaborately archdd over our heads. The
height in the centre might have been about
ten feet; the walls, from which the rock sprung
not more than six. The whole of this , portion
was covered in by human bones ; white skulls
formed a sort of border or cornice, and every
here and there were so arranged as to produce
an ornamental pattern. At the first glance
even some of the gentlemen shuddered, not
from a feeling of fear, but from an instinctive
horror they could not repress. Indeed, that
man must have been wholly divested of feel
ing, who could thus find himself in an undis
guised charnel house, some eighty. feet beneath
the surface of the earth, without a sensation
of disgust and awe—t'wo closely, yet strangely
mingling throbs.
"Look up," cried the guide: "look at the
black line in the centre of the roof; should
any accident befall you, and you have the
misfortune to get separated, follow it till you
arrive at this spot., and then ring yonder bell;
it will bring you succor. There is a much
thinner bar in another branch, which three
British officers followed by mistake, when the
British army were here, cud got so entangled
that their bodies were not found for three
weeks. They expired under one of the wells
which led to the surface; they probably per
ceived deylight, and died shouting for aesiet T
nue; het no one heard them."
This was not a pleasing prologue to our
day's eniertainment, and the ladies did not
hesitate to express their fears, at which the
guides laughed heartily; but there was no re
;pensive echo on our part.
We followed our leader through Several
branches extending nearly a quarter of a mile,
and at length came to a circular opening, where
there was erected an altar entirely formed of
deformed spinal bones ; and then went on
between two rows of grinning skulls, till we
arrived at a chamber, in the centre of which
was a basin of live fish that seemed to live in
health and happiness in this strange spot;
above us was one of'the wells spoken of by our
guide.
“What are the supposed origin of these eats
combs ?” asked Miss M
"Oh." replied our cicerone, without hesita-
tion, "they are the great quarries from which
the stone was taken by King Clovis to build
Paris ; they extend, in three different branches,
nine miles, and one passage leads under the
river almost to Montmatre."
t‘But how value they to be so well finished ?"
demanded B
ILOh, they were arched and ornamented by
the monks who first lived in them, and only left
them when the brigands and secret societies
cleared them away, and took up their quarters
in them!'
Little Mary Smith, who is always asking (W
-ish questions, naively demanded :
"Did they bring all these bones?"
"Not all, bladamoiselle, not at all; they were
turned out, or rather bunted out, about three
or four centuries ago, and the king who then
reigned had all these bones collected - and
brought here. It took fifteen years to arrange
them."
"And whose bones are they ?"
' , Th a t' s the question; no one can tell ; _PM"
say the bones of the Innocents_ brought over
here; some say they are those of the Prostest
ants, who were killed in the St. Bartholomew
affairs; others declare that they were taken
out of every churchyard; while others belieVe
them to be the skeletons of those who perished
in the Great Plague."
This was the most unpleasant suggestion of
all. We now began to fancy that the close smell,
which annoyed our olfactory nerves might be
infectious; we might catch the plague; Ire
might fall victims to some abominable conta
gion; already we wished ourselves out of those
ghastly cellars.
We now proceeded On through a continuation
of galleries, so similar in appearance that
there way little to remark. Our curiosity had
been satisfied, and we now felt satiety and
disgust.
All of a sudden, our guide, with hie torch,
disappeared. The ladeis set up a general
shriek, and the gentleman for a moment or two,
vainly endeavored to dispel their fears ; but,
alas! they bad but. little cheering information
to give them. In less than a minute the man
re appeared, with his torch, laughing heartily
at the fright he bad given us. Ile had dodged
behind a screen of bones, and thus alarmed us;
he now rejoined us, much amused at the fun;
but his hilarity was of short duration, for an.
Irish young cousin of mine instantly knocked
him down, and, as be lay sprawling, the light
rolled from his hands, and had 1 not fortu
nately snatched it up, we might all have been
lost in the dark and puzzling mazes of these
fearful subterranean labyrinths.
The guide was raised and soothed; a Ere
franc piece restored his good humor, and hi
few minutes we reached the ascent which led
to the free air of heaven. I was glad I bad
seen those strange excavations. They are now
shut up, probably for ever and aye; but were
they again open, it would require a rich brit)e
to tempt me to revisit them.
The failure of Edward Lambert & Co.' the
great New York silk jobbers, is said to be a
very bad one. To one French importing firm
they are indebted $125,000. The personal
expenses of the head of the Aril; who hae beim
living in a quiet way in Brooklyn, are Idatest
to have been $167,000 in ten year,.' _
