Such monstrous rigour, far from diminishing, had increased the fascination of the sect. A halo of sombre poetry surrounded those exceptional beings, whom the popular imagination pictured as holding their assemblies in woods and caverns at the midnight hour, and continuing their mysterious work, nothing daunted by the thun-Q ders of the Vatican or the prospect of the scaffold. We had no hope left but in our friends in Tuscany, nor did they fail us. Three months after the return of Fantasio, two young men with a message for him came and knocked at his door. Their tidings were at once good and bad. The overtures from the Vendita of Bologna had led to the most satisfactory results. Carbonarism was being organized throughout Tuscany, and Vendite were already established in all the principal towns; but a special order from the original Vendita at Bologna confined the work to Tuscany alone, with an express prohibition against going beyond. This was indispensable, said they, for securing secrecy and unity. Each province had its centre of action limited to the province itself, and without any contact with those of the other provinces of the Peninsula. The supreme Vendita alone, stationed in Paris, held in its grasp all the threads of these different centres, and could at any chosen moment put them in communication with each other. Our Tuscan friends could, therefore, do nothing for us, but send the name and address of one of the chief members of the Vendita at Bologna. The two young delegates had no directions for the good cousins (another appellation for Carbonari) in Genoa; but they were sure, they said, that the work was progressing h...

Not illustrated. 1867 Excerpt: ...rather than blindness. As we took our way homeward, Herr Konrad and I tried to account for this contradiction between the actual fact and the apparent prompting of nature, and even ventured upon some ingenious speculations, according to which blindness might, after all, be the lesser evil of the two; though we wound up with a declaration that practically, and as far as we were ourselves concerned, we should each of us prefer to be deaf rather than blind. From such an alternative God preserve us! We were a quarter of an hour late for dinner when we reached the Baths, and trout was being served when we took our seats.

The deaf rector at the head of the table, and the deaf professor on his right, were exchanging some shots preliminary to one of their customary pitched battles. "Have I heard?" shouted the irritable rector; "heard what?" "I didn't say 'heard,' I said 'bird,' " retorted, at the top of his voice, the not less irritable professor. "I asked you if you had seen the bird." "The bird!" repeated the chafed chairman, "I should think I have, and plenty too.

"By the by," said Miss Jacottet, turning to me, "have you seen the chaffinch?" I had so entirely dismissed the subject from my thoughts ever since breakfast, that I was startled at its being suddenly mentioned.
