Nawcagrin.ore-Trien, April 29.-The weather this week has been unusually cold for the meson, with heavy rain and hail at intervals. Our accounts from the interior speak rather discouragingly of the appearance of the Wheat on all cold soil., many ii lda which tea days ago presented a lexuriant aspect, having within the last few day, turned sickly and yellow. The trade since this day senlught has boon characterised by more firmness, and business to • fair latent has be e n done in Wheat and Flour at very extreme rates. Malting Barley and Malt, as also Oats, have been metre aught after, and the turn has been in favour of the 'eller, whilst in other articles few transactions have occurred, although lower terms would have been complied with. At our market this morning the show of Wheat from our grower* was large. as well as from abroad, but from the coast we are without any arrivals. The trade to-day opened with more animation, fresh thrashed samples being readily cleared off at an advance of Is. per qr., but the improvement did not extend to foreign ; holder., however, were more retired, and in many insances preferred taking their stacks to warehouse, in the anticipation that as the season advances more money will be obtained. Fresh Flour was held for an advance, and in the busies.' transacted rather over our previous currency was obtained, but in old warehoused parcels we have little variation to note, although the sale was more free than of late. The warehoused stocks are now much reduced ; and we are inclined to think, vrbea they are oat of the market, more inducement will exist for shipments being made this way. Rye nominally unaltered. Malting Barley may be quoted • shade dearer, and the same remarks will apply to Mate Beans and Peas meet little inquiry. Having a lees supply of Oats from the growers, and the arrivals iron s . otland be ecteing likewise moderate, • clearance last ly effd, at f last week's prices . Foreig n rather more saleable ; but to induce business, a slight concession had to be made. We have no alteration to note in the duties this week.

PITERNOROUGR, April 29.-We have a large "topple of Wheat to this day's market ; and there is a fair quantity a f Oats and Beans offering; but scarcely any Barley.

Very little !Seeley here, and. as the malting season may now be considered over, there is not much de mand ; prices therefore remain without alteration. Oats and Beans come more scarce, and quotations are Is. per qr. higher than last week. SAFFRON WALDEN, April 29.-Wheat maintains its price. Barley Is. per qr. dearer. Beans, Peas, and Oats quite as good in value. SUNDERLAND. April 29.-The weather has been exceed ingly cold and wet, with frequent showers of sleet and hail, and vegetation is much retarded by the continued low tem. perature. There have been no arrivals of min during the week by ship, but the supplies from the formers to-day were pretty good. There is no animation in the trade, and the demand is regulated solely by the pressing wants of the millers, who refrain whoy from peculation. ale of eat were slowly made, at • r ll eduction s of &hint is.

Wtsmecx, April 29.-With a continuance of the moth' angenial weather, almost entirely stopping the seeding of an spring corn, we continue to he moderately supplied with Wheat, and scantily with all other grain. Good fresh Wheat must be called fully I'. dearer, whilst the inferior and the least out of condition is barely that dearer since this day week.

BIIIXAST, April 27.-The weather during the week has been cold, with strong winds, and farmers ere busily em ployed getting on with their labour, which bee been • good teal delayed in heavy lands. Supplies of Orals at market lave been small, and the prices of everything have au upward tendeney. Indian Corn is in good demand, and held. at • halm advance of 6s. per ton, and unless we have large sup }Harlots are likely to advance still further.

Cotta, April 28.-The weather during the week has been almost uninterruptedly fin*, and the sowing of spring seeds has in consequence been well nigh brought to a close. The present aspect of trade is still dull. Yet, owing to the sail ing of several grain tiding vessels, coupled with a decidedly improved and increased demand for Indian corn, the value of ibis article has advanced to the extent of 10s. to 12s. 61. per ton on the week. Our supplies of home grain continua light. The value of Wheat is firmly maintained. The quantity coming in is smell, and, the demand being Rood, the samples offering are taken readily at the rates of last week. Of prepared Wheat, some sales have been made at an ad vance of Is. to 1.. 6d. per barrel. The demand fur Barley for seed purposes having fallen cal, this article has receded somewhat in value; but, the supply being small, the stands are cleared without mush difficulty. Oats, on the contrary, are the turn dearer, prices having ad vermeil since our last 3d. to 4d. per barrel. In prepared Oats a few sales have been made at 1 Is. per barrel (for blacks) free on board, but some holders are unwilling to sell at these rates. For Flour a fair consumptive demand goes on, and a s teady trade is doing in the article, at late rate*. Indian Corn has been much raider of sale. A good trade has been done in the article during the week, and prices have ad vanced 10.. to 12s. 6d. per ton, the asking price now being 81. The advance, however, has somewhat checked the de , mend. Indian Meal also hes been in better demand, and in a tree sale, at • pretty similar improvement. WATII1LF0111), April 29.-Our market this week has been very scantily supplied with Wheat; but our receipts of Bar ley end Oats have been to a fair extent. At this morning's market the delivery of Wheat was again exceedingly small, and all samples fit for millers' use were readily disposed of at an advance of Is. to 2s. per barrel on the currency of Saturday last. Barley, of which the supply was moderate, found buyers at late rates. The demand for Oats continues good, and bith blsce and white must be noted dearer by 2d. to 3d. per barrel. Indian Corn has attracted but little attention during the week, and the recent advance is with difficulty maintained. Flour is readily sold at an improve ment of bd. per sack.

LONDON, Al ONDA Y, MA Y 1 IN the Spectator of Saturday last. we find a theory of reform movements which has the appearance of putting the cart before the horse. " When some man among us," save the Spectator, " possessing a power of command, feels that the necessity of his position dictates a particular course of action, and proclaims that he is about to act, then the people stir, and he finds a support incited by the mere love of move went." The illustrations by which this theory is sought to be established are—the concession of ca tholic emancipation by the Duke of WELLINGTON and Mr. PEEL; the bringing in of the Reform Bill by Earl GREY ; and the abolition of the corn laws by Sir Router PEEL. Hitherto we, in common with the the country at large, had laboured milder the erroneous impression, that the desire for all three of these reforms had been expressed wilt' considerable urgency and loudness —to say nothing of some slight degree of menace—before any one of the three statesmen named moved in the matter. We had heard of the protracted struggles of the parliamentary liberals for the removal of Catholic restrictions, and of the Clare election—of the Birming- I has Political Union—and of the multitudinous anti corn-law associations and meetings, of which the League was the head. We had understood that the Duke and Sir ROBERT yielded to, instead of stimulat ing, the popular will, and that the labour even of the whigs, consisted more in preventing the people from going further than in goading them so far. But the Spectator favours us with a new and improved version of the story, in which the Duke of WELLINGTON, Sir ROBERT PEEL, and Earl GREY, aru represented, like the strong-breathed man iu the service of Baron MUNCHAVSEN, as not only setting their sails to catch the prevailing wind, but as supplying it from their own especial nostrils. We leave to the curious in antiquarian researches to adjudicate on the discrepancy between the popular legend and the Niebuhr of the Spectator. But we demur at once to the practical application of the theory which ha seeks to build upon his new views of the history of England in the nineteenth century. We cannot in conscience advise our countrymen to hang back from the movements for further constitu tional reform, and revision of ourfinancial system, till some "high and popular statesman—Sir Roma for instance—announces in some single Fien•Allee that he is about to bring in a measure 'for the revisi -n of our sys tem,' or some other measure equally large." If the people lie upon their oars till Sir ROBERT, or any minister in office, or having hopes of being in office, originate any such movement, they may wait long enough. We think the Spectator misapprehends the nature of the present movement. It has not originated in any prompting or stimulus of the "fifty-one." The meeting of the independent practical members of the House of Commons thus designated at the Free Trade Club, was cottmporancous with the movements in Birmingham, Liverpo, and e!scwhere, not the cause of them. It was an iad,pui. lent, unpreconcerteil con viction, prompted by the sane views and feelings which led to all these movements. Throughout the THE EXPRESS, MONDAY EVENING, MAY 1, 1848. - country, great and just irritation had been caused by the refusal of ministers to commence a re adjustment of our system of taxation Mid expendi otz;:r their perms ing in the old , slovenly , and vs routine, and incresaisg instead of diminish ing the estimates in altar of nevronted and general pecuniary pressure . his exasperation directed the mindsof men more earnestly and impatiently than ever to the question of financial reform, not so much as a means of allaying the immediate distress, as of pre venting future visitations from being aggravated in like manner by wanton and aimlesse xpenditure of the public monies. The tame and servile support which the House of Commons gave to ministers in opposition to the in terest and wishes of the c omn unity at large, set men upon scrutinising more narrowly the composition of that house, and the result was a deliberate conviction that from the sympathy and sense of justice of an se eembly so constituted the people have nothing to hops. The apprehensions of disturbance created by the silly and wicked ravings of some bode -fens who have usurped tke name of chartists, called forth the demon strations in support of order we have so recently wit nessed in the manufacturing districts and the metro polis , • and a fear of being misund erstood b y the work ing clauses, whose chosen champions the blusterers pretended to be, made the reformers who on these occasions rallied round the constituted authorities more than ever anxious to show by deeds as well as words their desire to urge on constitutional reform. Now it Lord JOHN RUithELL, or Sir ROBERT PEEL, or the Duke of WELLINGTON have a sound and effi cient measure of constitutional reform, or a sound and efficient measure of financial reform in readiness, let him promulgate it, and by all means let the people rally to its support. Bat as none of these statesmen have as yet given even a hint of having such a mea sure in 'reins, why the people must in the meantime seek to do their own work in the best way they can. And however rude and scrambling that way may ap " pear to " the tine critic wield in g his delicate p en, with our versions of the histories of Catholic Emanci pation, the Reform Act, and Corn Law Repeal fresh in our memories and faiths, we believe they may sacceed by it in bringing government to terms now se they have done before. It is objected to the reformers who have already taken the field that their plan of reform is not suffi ciently definite. It would be premature to insist dogmatically on a definite plan at present. Upon the necessity of an extensive change in our electoral system there is a pretty general agreement. But to have any chance of success the measure of reform proposed must be supported by the reformers in all the various districts of the kingdom, and by the reformers both of the middle class and of the working-class which unites with them. Inquiry is necessary to learn how far the views of all parties coincide ; friendly discussion to explain and obviate differences of opinion and to select the essential points upon which all can be brought to work in harmony. It is agreed that the undue power and influence of the aristocracy in the return of members to the House of Commons must be circumscribed and, if possible, destroyed; and that means must be adopted to let the opinions and wishes of the working classes be outspoken in the llouse of Commons. The movement is yet too much in its infancy to admit of individuals propounding with advantage a definite measure fur the attainment of these aims. The meeting at Manchester judged more wisely when it resolved upon issuing circulars with a view to ascertain the wants and wishes of the general public. We observe that, in a good many papers, metmpo litan and provincial, recourse is unblushingly had to a very stale fallacy, with a view to disgust indepen dent-minded men with the new movement. It is assumed that some one person or several persons are warping the lead in it, and reformers are then tauntingly asked will they follow such leaders. No symptoms of such usurpation have yet reached our knowledge, and from what we know of the state of public feeling, we unhesitatingly pronounce such usurpation impossible. Considering the querters whence the imputations have come, there is little reason to appreheed much danger from them. They afford, however, an opportunity of warning re formers against those petty personal jealousies which have rendered abortive many • promising effort for reform, and to suggest to those upon whom accident has conferred the distinction of being first in the field the expediency of being on their guard against giving even apparent cause for them. Every move ment must have its leader or leaders ; but the office can neither be usurped or given ; it falls as a matter of course to those who, by their superior intelligence and activity, come in the course of time to be placed habitually in the van. I.smeavtee. has overcome the wild ultra repub licans and communists by giving them full fling, letting them speak out, indulge in pl t, menace, and demonstration, during two whole months. LAMAR TINE and the moderates had nothing to do but re main quiet, whilst the furious party undid them selves in public opinion. Lord CLARENIX/N seems, with similar foresight, to have allowed the Young Irelanders to play their pranks before high heaven. His lordship prepared, indeed, to repel and neutralise any actual danger, but however menaced and tormented by such brawling foes, he remained on the defensive. Public opinion I in Ireland, even among repeaters, has had time and opportunity to form a correct judgment of the maniac politicians of repeal. And now, the gov, rnment of Ireland seems seriously and actually assuming the offensive, whilst the generale, who so lately threat ened the empire, are fast retreating into corner , . The law will deal with the ringleaders. The procla mation of Dublin as a disturbed district will put an end to pike.buyieg and title-practice. The change in the legal mode of proceeding against the young Ireland delinquents will na turally give rise to considerable difference of opinion amongst lawyers, and to much misre presentation amongst the unlearned. The facts are simply these : Indictments for sedition having been found by the grand jury against Meese.. O'Betee, MEAGIIER, and MITCHELL, a plea in abatement was entered on behalf of one of the traverser', which if adjudged valid by the Court of Queen's Bench, would have had the ' effect of setting aside the indictment, and which, even though it were overruled in the first instance, might be set up after trial and conviction as ground for a writ of error, the uncertainty attending which the example furnished by the case of the " Queen v. O'Connell and ' , there" abundantly proved. Under such circumstances, whatever the opinion of the crown lawyers might be as to the validity of the plea in abatement, it does not appear strange that they should have desired to disentangle the case, if possible, from the coil of doubt and misgiving which mast have thus inevitably encompassed it.. The course they have consequently pursued has been that of abandoning formally the impugned bill of indictment, and substituting iu its stead an ex qffirin information equivalent thereto in all particulars. Having adopted this course in the case of ono of the parties inculpated, it seemed but right, though techni cally unnecessary, to adopt it in each of the others; and thus the entire proceeding must be henceforth taken as resting upon the indictment, or, as it is called, information, tiled by virtue of :his office by the ATTORNEY-GENERAL, in lieu of an indictment or bill of accusation found by a grand jury. It is impossible to disguise from ourselves that in abstract principle, and in general practice, the differ ence between the two modes of proceeding is im mense. The one is the free and presumably impartial verdict of a jury upon the question submitted to them, whether there is not, prima facie, a case de manding judicial investigation , a s stated against the accused. It is a matter of daily experience that frivolous and vexatious charges are frequently thus got rid of; and the barrier which such a preliminary tribunal interposes between wanton accusation and i nno c e nce, is a great safeguard of public and of individual liberty. On the other hand, the alternative power of putting a man upon his trial, by virtue of an allegation formally set forth by the first law officer of the crown, savours much of the ancient ways of prerogative ; and even in these days, when executive power is fain to speak comparatively " with bated breath and whisp erin g humbleness, is unquestionably capable of being abused "to the harrusement and unworthy provoea- I tion of the subject who aforethought and of prepense meaneth no evil," as the good jurist bath it. We strongly feel the force of the ob jections that have at all times lain against the pc,.“ r of filing informeions in political cases. In :, sound and healthful state of society, it is itici,y possible to conceive how any such power cout , l ever form an indispensable or de sirable privilege of authority; and where its exercise Is neither politic nor unavoidable, no ane of ordinary sense or judgment would advocate its being retorted to. Where an anemia and consequently insecure condition of things prevails, we own that the right of ex-ejtdo indictment may frequently be a matter of necessity, rather than choice. All governments must be allowed the means of self-defence• . and it were well if arbitrary govern ments never mated to worse means of self-defence than that which we are adverting to. If an execu tive, which is virtually appointed by, the po pular branch of the legislature, and which is con fessedly responsible to that assembly for every act which tt performs—cannot in any particular locality rely upon the fearlessness and faithfulness of a grand jury in questions relating to the preservation of the public peace, or other matters equally important,—it would I seem to be an over sensitive and fastidious zeal for individual freedom that would inhibit all inquiry being raised or a trial being had, according to the law, in open court, before a competent judge and jury I upon the merits. At the same time let it be confessed that the con dition of a country where a grand jury cannot be so relied on to do their duty, must of necessity be one urgently and imperatively demanding thorough reconstruction and reform. And perhaps the most conclusive defence of el qfficio proceed ings is that which impugns the capacity or fidelity of the legislature. lie this as it may, we should view with unqualified regretthe implied weak: ties. of a deliberate or practical return to the steep and narrow paths of the prerogative in the ad ministration of the laws in Ireland; and if we be lieved that in the present case any symptom of such a tendency could be fairly traced, we should not hesitate loudly to condemn it. False prophets, like %Ir. MITCHELL and his associates, may be undeserving of any peculiar forbearance or considera tion. We should be disposed to show them none. " They bewitch the unwary with their evil words, and lure the unwise to swift destructim." We be lieve them to be the foes of order, progress, liberty, and peace. We have neither sympathy nor respect for them. Still we would that they were tried as other men are tried, and, if guilty, sentenced as other men are sentenced, not only for the sake of justice but of policy. We have no faith in an energy beyond the law ; or in dealing hardly with one man to deter others from imitating his example. And if, therefore, we repeat it, the late change of proceeding in the Court of Queen's Bench in Ireland appeared to be a virtual or substantial denial to these men of any privilege or right upon whose benefit they might have reasonably counted, we should not feel justified in withholding our condemnation. But it is really not so. The indictments were originally found by the grand jury in the ordinary way. To the finding, but one objection was raised — namely, that one of the body being an elected (and personally unimpeached) member of the town council of Dublin, ought not, according to a particular statute, to have been placed upon the grand jury. Confessedly the objection was i.urely technical. It is not even denied that the grand jury of twenty three members were unanimous. This alleged defect has been cured by subdituting sn official finding for one in the usual mode. The form may be in general an objectionable one, but clearly no wrong or injury whatever can be done to the parties now arraigned so far as a trial of their case upon the merits is involved. FRANCE. PARIS, SATURDAY, 6 P.M. The examination of the returns was concluded last night at a late hour, at the WM-de-Ville. From nine o'clock in the morning, detachments of the national guard lined the square in front of the build ing. In the Hall of St. John an immense platform was erected,with benches and tables for the scrutators delegated from the several mairies and the cantons of the banlieiw. About two hundred persona were em ployed at these bureaux. When the operation was completed by the votes of the army and the garde-mobile, being combined with those of the arrondissements, the mayors of the arron dissements, with M. Armand Marrast at their head, advanced and proclaimed the following thirty-four members elected to represent in the National Assembly the department of the Seine : • 'rhea marked were members of the late chamber. •• Thus marked were members of former chambers, bat not of the late chamber.

Ledru-Rollin and his party are not over-pleased with the position into which they are thrown by the result of the elections. Their organ, La X, forme, thus expresses itself on the subject : We expected that the elections would be very bad, but the result, it must be avowed, has exceeded our expectation. We have sail under what influence the ballot was everywhere opened. The functionaries of the fallen reign had only to follow the track which the practice of seventeen years must have rendered easy : The monarchic tree, which we only pruned, has borne its fruits. It was this league of royal f u nctionaries that the commissaries of the government hail the mission to counteract without doubt • but the latter had at the same time to promote their candhlateehipa, and when they did nut compromise with the partici who could injure them, we may at least believe that they refrained from irri tating them. In that generally, and with some exceptions, has their dictatorship resulted. We could not desire more to show that all the circulari of the citizen Minister of the Inte rior were right, if they required to he justified. When we demanded that the incompatibility of the royal commissaries in the departments with the administration of which they were charged should be formally decreed, our precaution, as has been seen, was correct. The reaction has done the rest. It has also continued the system of the monarchy ; it has sounded the alarm, cried communism and anarchy, and it was under this sort, of panic that many good people voted. But let us have patience. The ballots are change able, and we are gifted with per.everance which nothing can discourage. On the other side Le C ommerce sa y s : I The first trial of universal suffrage has just been completed from one end of France to the other, and it gives a mark. 11 contradiction to those who suspected the good sense of the nation. The elections already in great part known are at the same time republican and moderate. France has pro claimed, by an immense majority, names which are for her the symbol of order and liberty. We salute with all our hearts this triumph of moderation and public reason. We salute it, becase we are sure that this moderation will not be retrograde. It is not any longer concessions which suffice —it is large satisfactions which the popular interest has a right to 'demand, identical as it is with the well-understeod interest of the burgess party. The burgess party has com prehended that, and thanks be rendered to it for doing so ! Names belonging to the people, names of workmen, have is sued in a certain number from the electoral urn. All classes, if thero be classes, will be represented. The old Left occu• pies a considerable place in the elections, and it was only just Slim it should do so.

NAPLES.—In the following letter from our corre spondent will be found the protest of the King of Naples against the decree of dethronement pronounced against him by the Sicilian chamber. It also contains other interesting matters worthy ot attention : NAPLES, steam 20. For several days we have been in suspense as to what his Majesty would do as reg irds Sicily. To send additional troops to that island seemed to be out of the question, into. much as so considerable a force is under orders to march for Lombardy ; whilst to abandon it, or even fur a time to acqui esce in the dsciaion of the Sicilian parliament, was but ill suited to the royal or isational honour. Accordingly, the last number of the Giorriafe has the following decree of his Majesty : " Having been informed of the deliberation taken in Palermo on the 13th of the present month, by which are set aside not only the sacred rights inherent in our royal person, and in our royal family, but the unity and integrity of the monarchy are violated and the constitution sworn to by us. Having heard the unanimous opinion of our council of ministers, we declare, and by the pre sent solemnly pr. test, against the deliberative act of I Palermo of the 13th of April, 1848, as injurious to the sacred rights of our royal person and dynasty, and to the unity and integrity of the monarchy, declaring it disloyal, vain, null, and of no value, Ste." Thus Naples and Sicily are in regular opposition one to another, and speculation is at a loss to know what step will be taken next on either Bile. King Ferdinand is not in • condition to increase his forces in Sicily, and indeed the rumour to-day is that he is about to withdraw such as are in the citadel. Will Sicily then make a descent on the Calabria, and, fraternising with them, try to drive out the present dynasty from Naples ? The thing is not impossible—it has been whispered about as probable, and the Tempo, in the government interest, in a long article in this t he mbe after speaking of the shame it would en tail on Sicilians if at this moment, when all are} ghting for the Italian cause, they should take advantage of the nb• sence of the King's troops in Lombardy, adds : We learn that Andrea Romeo is to go to Messina to propose a truce till parliament opens and during the time that the Neapoli tans are aiding the Lombards." This is a mortifying acknowledgment of weakness indeed on the part of the Neapolitan government, and only tends still more strongly to Bbow the suicidal character of the policy which it has been compelled to adopt in sending out its strength to Lombardy when there was division in the realm, and the possibility of the open invasion of one portion by the other. There are rumours, however, that Sicily is herself divided on the act of dethronement, that the royal flag had been hoisted in several places, and that there was even fighting in Palermo. I give you the report with much diffidence. It is singular, however, to consider the comparative indifference with which the decided act of the Sicilian parliament is regarded here by the press. "W. are consoled by the assurance," says the Nazi/Ise, " that Sicily connects hers. If with the Italian family, so that here- I after we shall be again united as members of Federative Italy; in comparison with this, any other relation of a different character is of little consequence in our eyes." The most likely solution of our present difficulties will be, unless matters are precipitated or unforeseen circumstances occur, that the question will be left to the decision of the Italian League ; hut the Italian League is not yet formed, though commissioners are appointed for the consolidation of it, and so one knows what jealousies or dissensions about territorial limits may hereafter arise to prevent that union which now the day-dream of all Italy. Here things are going on in the same unsatisfactory, un certain sta . e, as ever, though on the surface but little ap pears. The elections have been going on now for two days without creating the slightest difference in the aspect of the city. I have asked many persons, with that tone of interest which one u .es in England, how things were going on ; but no one c Add tell me anything, or seemed to care about the result ; end I should not in the slightest degree be asto nished, at the meeting of parliament, to find that it will be often difficult to make a house. In the districtof the Chiaja there were not more than 150 voters; they were occupied in many of the quartieri, during the first night, to a late hour, in milsing the scrutiny ; and, on leaving, the doors were sealed up. Though thine! , have been going on apparently so quietly in the city, " in the provinces (says the Tempo) we fear that there will be disturbances, as there is a strong party deter mined on putting down the Chamber of Peers. We have hsd severaldemonstrations on the subject of the forts. The point has been urged, it is even said, in council; and the press de clares itself favourable to the popular wish." In the arsenal the utmost activity prevails, and it is affirmed that the Neapolitan contingent will leave for the Adriatic in the next week. To the 4,000 troops about to sail for the east coast under Pepe, it is now announced that another regiment is to be added ; the report gains ground that the King will join them. It is said this morning,that the king has countermanded the order for the departure of the gendarmes, a body on which he can depend in case of danger; and that his Majesty with the royal family would not, an has been the custom en Holy Thursday, go on foot to visit the holy sepulchres in the churches. LOMBARDY.— Our ndvicee from Milan come down to the 23rd. Apprehensions continued to be entertained of the arrival of reinforcements at Verona from the Frioul. The Archduke John had raised the German Tyrol, and directed it against the Italian division of the same province. The issue of the war would in a great degree depend on the insurgents in the Frioul being able to occupy the Austrian forces there until Charles Albert should be able to bring those under Hatletzkt to a decisive enga r.ement. The L'onstitutimoie/ publishes a correspondence, from whic+ it appeals that Austria is taking secret steps to cuter into r.egotill cons with Venice and Lombardy. The first letter, cl*tedGoritz, April 15, is from Count Mar zani, attached to the staff of the Austrian army on the Isonzo, and addressed to Count Cairn() Dragoni, of the e rse e he bed ant i n the e to e wiriucsiirtna..sito:ciai...r.b.:..o.,:c.‘.itc...ariwxti.ec.r.ecein.im crowd , thei p.i.
