At the beginning of the year 1863, the brig- 

 andage in the Neapolitan provinces was still 

 very active. A committee, appointed by the 

 Chamber of Deputies for examining this subject, 

 traversed the disaffected provinces, offering a 

 full pardon to all the insurgents who would 

 submit. At the end of February a detachment 

 of 16 soldiers was surprised by 60 men of the 

 band of Ohiavone, and completely exterminat- 

 ed. The democratic deputies (the "Left") of 

 the Chamber of Deputies proposed the for- 

 mation of corps of volunteers to disperse the 

 brigands ; but this plan, combated by the min- 

 istry, was not adopted by the Chamber. The 

 presence of Gen. Lamarmora in the infested 

 districts, in April, was followed by good re- 

 sults. The insurgents were driven from the 

 mountains of Castellamare, Sorrento, Amalfi, 

 and about 200 were captured. But, in June, 

 the devastations by the brigands began anew
