Tardy repentance.
--The Lombardo, of Milan, publishes the following letter, addressed to the Pope by an old woman, once a celebrated dancer:
"At the advanced age of seventy-eight I humble myself in the dust, and bitterly deplore having occasioned many scandals by dancing in theatres during a period of twenty-five years, and having heaped up enjoyment and riches by the practice of that diabolical art. At this time, when the Roman Government is enduring such great anguish, I venture, unworthy sinner as I am, to come feebly to its aid with the trifling sum of five hundred Austrian livers, which I offer as a contribution to St. Peter's penny, imploring at the same time his blessing and prayers for myself, my deceased father, my daughter Charlotte, and her son Eustago and Elizabeth, his wife, and all the children they may have, and finally for all my children and posterity, to the end that the good may triumph and the wicked perish.
His Holiness's humiliated servant and sinner
