Irritated at the less he had sustained, they were immediately ordered before him, when he declared to the Bishop, that the only means of preserving his life was on his knees to deny the existence of a Saviour. The Bishop, seeing no means of escaping death, complied; on which Casparoni observed, 'U retch, thou art unworthy to live,' and instantly stabbed
him to the heart. The Friar was next applied to,who seeing the murder of the
Bishop, and hoping to avoid his fate, !

210XtXA.IT BAKDXTTI,
The re is low m one of the prisons of
the Roman Government, a celebrated chief of banditti, named Casparoni, who is accused of 142 murders, 105 of which he confesses. The first crime of this person was a murder, committed when he was only sixteen years of age, on his Parish Priest, for refusing him absolution for a theft. At eighteen, he distinguished himself in a skirmish with the police, of whom he killed or wounded twenty, and was elected captain of
the band which he served, and the numbers of which he subsequently raised to two hundred. Amongst the most dar
ing exploits of this band, prior to their becoming so numerous, was the storming of a convent of nuns at Mount Comodo, in the middle of the day, and carrying off 34 young girls who were there for education, and whom he se lected from the others, having previously obtained information that their parents were in circumstances to pay their ransom. They were kept ten, and some twenty days in the mountains, where (to his credit be it spoken) every attention and respect, the situation and their safe keeping warranted, was paid to them. The ransom for each vaiied from two hundred to a thnimanH rh.llnre-
and for which he had the courage, . iL. A 1- . 1 I
sucu was ine terror nis name nau acquiredtotreat inperson ;no one dared to arrest him, for fear of the consequences. What is most extraordinary in the life of this miscreant, is his strict attention to the outward forms of his religion; his person was nearly covered with crosses and imagines of saints. He (as well as most of his companions,) attended regularly the festivals, never once committed either murder or robbery on a Friday, and always on this, as well as other vigils, observed a strict fast. A priest was compelled to confess them once a month, (who of course, fiom ter
ror, gave them immediate absolution,) and one of this order was at last the means of bringing them to justice, and destroying the band. On returning once to the mountains, after a severe encounter with the gendarmerie, in
Cnances of Marriage. A curious cnl-
s y culation has been entered into by
writer in a recent Edinburg paper, the
object of which is to show the relative numbers of marriages that take place among the females of Scotland between
the ages of fourteen and forty. Of a
thousand married women under forlv.
'taken without selection, it seems that thirty two were married during their fourteenth or nfteenth year, 104 during their sixteenth or seventeenth, 219 during their eighteenth or nineteenth, and 233 (the greatest number) during the twenty first. From this age forward the number of marriages in each year rapidly declines, twenty two and
twenty three giving only 1G5, the next two years 102, the next 45, and so or, down to thirt eight and thirty nine, which give only 4. If this calculation is accurate, a sic gle lady entering on her twenty second year has left to her about two fif'hs of her original chances ofmatrimoiy; and should she continue in single blessedness until her twenty
sixth year, she will have lost about six sevenths of her chances for a husband. YVe give thes-e statistics a place, for the information of such of our unmarried lady readers as may desire to know how stands the blai-ks and prizes in the
lotery of matrimony.
