Naples, January 8.—-Mrs. Rose
Potto has' made-the following blood
curdling confession:
Trusting that the ignominy which
tins declaration will bring upon me
will be accepted by my merciful Crea
tor in atonement of my crimes, I.
Rose Potto, truthfully state iu the
presence of my spiritual adviser, that
I am accountable for the murder of
those infants whose bodies were found
in my late residence by the public
officers on the 13th day of December.
For three years I pursued a terrible
system of crime in order to satiate my
greed for money, and I prevailed upon
Margarite Coraldi, now in this prison,
to assist me in perpetrating th* crimes
of which I stand charged, and am guil
ty. I earned advertisements to be
published iu Neapoli a i journals, stat
ing that any persons desirous at rid
ding themselves of their edldiei, to
prevent shame and -infamy, or for any
cause, could procure relief by calling
upon me; that I was prepared to take
full charge of their children upon a
certain sum being paid. I required
no person to leave his or her name,
aud am therefore unable to implicate
any of those parties who encouraged
me to perpetrate those crimes, for
which I crave the Divine mercy. As
far as I am capable of remembering, I
wilfully starred to death about twenty
children, male and female, by locking
them in an empty a{inrtmcnt, whence
I could not hear their cries, and whence
no others could hear them.
I administered poison at intervals
to about the same number of babies;
and \rhcn dead I, assisted by Margarite
Coraldi, concealed the corpses below
tlic tiles of the several floors of my
house and beneath the gravel in the
cellar. These murders only occurred
wheu I could not rid myself of the in
fants in any other 5vay. I adopted
another wicked means of procuring
gain by advertising that I could pro
vide childless women with beautiful
children for adoption, being compelled
to part 4\ith them on account ’ of my
poverty. In connection with the causes
of my crime, I will state that my hus
band, one Luigi Francesco Porro, of
Genoa, abandoned me without cause
ways, and one of the strangest things
about them is their power of following
the slightest track left by man or beast,
however lightly or carefully they may
have trodden to avoid pursuit. *

A CTATECONgTITUTIOXAL CONVEY
TIONI
There is a resolution now pending
before tho Legislature, calling for a
State Convention, for the revision of
the Constitution. This is a matter of
great importance to our people, and
one tliat we think Should receive the
immediate attention of our Rq resenta-
tives.
That the present Constitution of our
State—framed by negroes, traitors, and
aliens, at the point of the bayonet, and
at a time when corruption, bribery,
terroism and rascality reigned
preme—need thoroughly overhauling
aud remodeling, we do not doubt anv
sane man would, for an instant ques
tion.
t 01d time-honored laws and enact
ments were obliterated, and in their
staid were sulistituted such legislation
hb suited the corrupt party then in
power.
There is much that ought to be done
—many acts that, at the close of the
war, may have been necessary, now,
that peace has again resumed its sway,
and our people are, iu a great measure,
recovered from their financial embar
rassments, should be modified.
So we say, let there, by fill rara: s,
htnitftd ^Constitutional Convention,
at aaeariy day; and let it
be composed of the people of Georgia,
who have the good of the whole State
at heart. It is tlie only vent left for
us, and one which we should not hesi
tate a moment to seize upon. Let it
meet, discuss our laws, aud 4ve hope,
wipe out every trace left upon our dear
old State by tho vandals who held un-
1 iliaturlwl sway for so long-* time.
1 ' hope the press of Georgii (will
discuss this matter iliurotighly, and im

tance of the measure, *

A private letter from Dr. Henry,

The Iowa^. papers recommend
people to use their corn for fuel. The
Council Bluff Eonparcil says: W*
are glad to see tint many of our citi
zens are taking advantage of the. low
price of com to lay in heavy supplies
of it for fufl. We have experimented
with it the last week, and find that it
is an admirable substitute for both
prices there is both economy and
comfort in its usee. A ton of corn
33 bushels, at 17 cents per bushel, is
85.60. We consider this equal to
cord of bard wood, as supplied and
measured in , oiur market, at 87; the
cutting of this cord, $1.50; total,
88,50. Thus making a saving uf near
ly three dollars a cord. For kitchen
fuel it is superior to wood, except
hickory, and cheaper -than that
makes » very hot fire with * great deal
of blaze. We judge that three tons
of com are equal to the heat of one
ton ofhmd cod, while in eooQomy of
its use it la equal to one and a half
tons of opal. In small families and
small houses there is always a great

when we had been, married only five
months. This is one of the grounds
upon which I approach the public au
thorities to beg their clemency in my
behalf. Another is the unusullietl
virtue of my early life and the hope-
poverty and anxiety, which follow-
ny husband’s desertion. Yet anoth
er ground is the blind, rash ignorance
in which I committed the deplorable
crimes, which I never truly realized
the enormity of until God’s hand
placed me here. _
Then follow references to her early
life and the respectability of her fami

tenere (that portion of Rome beyond
the Tiber), and was reared almost
within the Church’s doors.”
The two women are to be taken be
fore the Court of Assizes on Friday,
and, after very little ceremony, they
will be found guilty of murder and
condemned to death.

because the toes turned out, which, as
thou knowest, an Incliun’s never do.
Had his gun been long, its muzzle
would have left no trace on the bank
of the tree, as this one had done, as it
leaned against it. So, thou seest,

him at once that the dog’s feet were
