28 SEPTEMBER 1867, Page 3
In printing, last week, a letter attesting the sympathy felt
in Italy with Admiral Persano, we inadveitently printed also a sentence which should not have appeared in it, reflecting very harshly, and we imagine very unfairly, on Admiral Albini. We -do not believe, and said some months ago that we did not believe, in the charges made against Albini, at all. Moreover, such reflections on Admiral Albini as were contained in the letter referred to, would need, in .common fairness, a masa of justifying facts. The letter was printed in its present form through a mere inadvertence.
