Many readers of the Spectator will have heard of the

school for poor Italian working-men and boys which was founded by Mazzini in Hatton Garden. The management of this school has now fallen into the hands of a certain number of Italian working- men (occasionally assisted by richer friends), belonging to a "Societa di Mutuo Soccorso" (a mutual-help society), devoting part of their funds to the support of the school. During the winter the society has found itself short of funds, and has been forced for a time to close the school. They are, however, struggling to reopen it, and would be glad of a little assistance for that purpose. Subscriptions will be thankfully received by Mr. C. E. Maurice, Eland House, Hampstead.
