Naples, April 30, 1865.

The juvenile Society of Progress to the people of America on the occasion of the assassination of Abraham Lincoln.

Accept a word of condolence, and also of encouragement, which the Society of Progress of Naples send you. We, also, like you, have felt misfortunes. We also know what it is to suffer, so we can fee for others; but the road of civilization and progress is made in that way, and it is necessary to traverse it, though the footsteps of the nation are bathed in blood. Misfortunes are seeds which carry fruits that are never lost. For your great deeds we paid you a tribute of praise; now for your misfortunes we ofer you a word of sympathy, of encouragement, and of condolence.
