TURIN, JAN. 23. In the Chamber of the Deputies to-day, the de bate commenced on the report of the committee of nquiry into the disturbances of September. Baron Rican°li spoke in favour of harmony, and said that judgment on the events of September belonged to public opinion and history. He then pointed out the dangers which might arise from discussion, and said that Italy needed rather legis lative reforms than disputes. He concluded by moving that the house should pass to the order of the day. Signori Mordini, Crispi, and Brofferio demanded that the subject should be discussed, as an act of justice due to Turin. The Ministers of the Interior and Foreign Affairs supported the motion of Baron Rioasoli, which was carried by 140 to 67 ; 13 members were absent. Mommv Ennio. The Emperor's favourite dog, the setter Hero, who has been accustomed to sleep by the side of his bed, and who found the pheasants and hares which the Imperial Prince shot at Compibgne when he first took the field gun in hand, is lost. The Afeniteur gives a description of the animal, and says that it was lost in the neighbourhood of the Tuileries at about a quarter past 10 in the evening, Jan. 21. The dog wore a leather collar with a copper plate, but no inscription. As Hero never went out without the Emperor it is supposed that he must have accompanied his Majesty in one of his noc turnal rambles in the streets incog., and have slip- -....------------- RS.

The Bishop of Orleans will, I rather think, be disappointed at the little sensation caused by his ping-wfulied sod, in spite of all his talent, ex tremely tedious pamphlet. Fe* of the jOurnik take much notice of it. The mistranslation' of various passages of the Encyclical for which he saysa schoolboy ought to be chastised, are attributed by one irreverent authority to the barbarous Latin which Rome persists in using.

The Italians, who still study the language of their fathers, read the document as it is read in France and Germany, and the go vernment of Turin, like that of Paris, has prohibited the priests , from promulgating it. If Mgr. Dupanloup's arguments oon blued anything serious instead of being a mere exercise , of Jesuitical ingenuity they would go to show that the Pope misunderstands hie own Encyclical, and should gee the Bishop of Orleans to draw up another.

'rim I Or, i. tw was ' the [ova only A VISIT TO THE OIL REGIONS OP PENNSYLVANIA. The Morning Post publishes an interesting letter from the " Oil City," Pennsylvania, January 7—giving a description of life at the oil regloos. Immense fortunes are being made there. A well, producing • hundred barrels daily (and there are several wells on Oil Creek largely exceeding this product), yields • daily income of • thoesand dollars, with no express in the camp of • flowing ad bet about ten dollars • day if bet • pumping well —the erigisal expense of sinking the well, including the cost of engine and pump, if needed, being not over 6,000 dole. There is room, too, for severs' such wells on an IMO of posted. Stress, freaks of fortune occur every few days. An Irish labourer, employed io handling freight at the railroad depot at Titusville, • month or so since, in vested 300 doll. of his saviop in • Foal of four acres on the Creek, neer Titusville. An oil well has been struck in the vicinity of his land, and on the seventh day he was offered 5 000 dole. for his purchase. He refused the offer, holding the property at 10,000 dole., and he will get It. One of the must successful, shd at the same time most liberal, of the original operators in oil on the Creak was Captain Frisk, • man of limited means, but whose specula time in oil wells built up for him • fortune of nearly two =Whet dollars before his death, about a year since. Not long before his death a young man came to the Creek in search of employment, sod, when his mow was entirely goes, applied to Geisha Funk, who essaged him as clerk at • moderate salary. Being well pleased with the manner in which his dirties were _performed, Captain Peek gave him an interest in a well he was thee sickles. The well was • success, and a few days shim the young Mau sold out his interest for 100,000 dole. Still, another awing man, not yet 21, was employed at waggoning oil on the Creek. In part payment of his services he took • sixth interest in • well then sinking. The well struck oil. sod recently the yowls men sold out his property for 150,000 dole, with a part of which money he purchased • large farm in Min u•sota. A man named Taylor, who kept • lager beer saloon in Cleveland, became affected by the oil fever and started for the oil region with 700 dole., his initial wealth, and &letter of introductioe to an oil dealer. He stayed two months " weitieg for somethies to turn up," and at last his oppor tunity arrived. An undivided thirty-mooed interest in a fern', on which a well wan ping down, was for sale at 1,600 dole. He had 600 dole. of his capital remainisd, end the oil•clealer agreed to lend him the amount necessary to mate up the purchase money. A few days after the purchase was made the well reached oil. The value of the property suddenly increased, and Taylor sold out his thirty-wooed interest fee 27,000 dollars. He is sow opersties larply in oil and oil lauds, and has increased his capital enormously. Still another example of • similar character ass las oiled of • citizen of Cleveland, a Methodist minister, named Van Vleck. He was so exceedingly poor that his family were in absolute want, and he bad neither mosey sor credit to supply their needs. At this juncture Hr. Streator, the contractor for the construction of the Oil Creek Railroad, employed him to negotiate for the right of way for the railroad. Vas Visa found an obstinate farmer, who refused to give the right of way, but offered to sell his farm at a moderate price. Finding him deaf to all other propositions, Mr. Streator told Van Vleck to boy the farm, and he would advance the money, which was done. Oil was afterwards (amid on the pro perty, and Van Vlsok sold oat the farm, mangos a profit of more then 100,000do1s. "But Is my journey up the creek," writes the correspoo dent, "I found, connected with the history of many of the principal wells, instances of sudden elevation from poverty to wealth that would scarcely be credible were it not for the tangible evidence before the eyes of everyone. Steadies before • flowing well, gushing out oil at the rate of 6,000 dole. a day, without other expense to the proprie tors than the original sinking of the hole, and the hire of two or three men to take can of the oil, id It wasly acquired • 5...„ Strwewist rw • SHLDT Puot --On Friday I evade( lest the National Hospital for the Paralysed and Epileptic, Qum -square, Bloomsbury. promoted aa un wonted cheerful aspect, a soirée baring been arranged in celebration of Ws opening of the Lady Tbomond wards.

Heoreatioos of • lighter character followed, and after the patients had partaken of , refreshments, the ladies' committee adjourned to the wards, whets a musical performance took plain. Many 'new bars of the board of menages eat were present, sod laboured assiduously to promote the hippie's' of their afflicted friends. It was also satisfactory to notice the attendance of several of the method stet( of the hospital, who by their protect* on such as occasion civilised their' deep interest in the welfare of the nfferem confided to their charge.

The committee are so well saddled with the beadicial results of the evening's witertainmeat that they have determised to sepal It from time to Mee. Monde does not publish it. The authorisation granted to M. Albert de Broglie, M. Cochin, and M. de Lavergne to lecture in the Rue de la Pale has been withdrawn. It was already made a matter of complaint that them champions of the Pope were not to be allowed to talk religion or politics ; but the sub jests announced for their lectures were " Adam Smith," The History of Paris," and "The Inds enoe of Morality in Matters of Taste." Why it should have been thought compatible with public order on Jan. 7 to permit these gentlemen to dis cuss the above topics, and necessary to withdraw the permission on Jan. 19, the Gazelle de France has been making strenuous endeavours to find out, but protegees to have been completely baffled. It ocoursi to me that the friendship of these gentlemen for the Bishop of Orleans may have something to do with the matter. M. Duruy would not, I think, have sanctioned such a petty illiberal act as the suppres sion of their lectures, had not his band been forced by bigisewanthority. M. Bayle.Mouillard, &judge of the Courtof Cana tiou, has been translated to the Council of State. This appointment, of a very unusual character, haa a special significance at the present moment. M. Boyle-Mouillard's reputation as &lawyer was made in 1838, by his resistance to clerical encroachments. lie was then imperial procureur at Clermont, and in that character bad a greet fight with the bishop, who refused Christian burial to M. Montlosier, the celebrated adversary of the Jesuits. The new recruit to the legislative section of the Council of , State arrives also apropos for the discussion of tbel bill for the abolition of imprisonment for debt, ce which subject he wrote an essay in 1835, which obtained a prize from the Academy of Moral and Political Sciences. The hopes entertained of the recovery of Colonel Charras have unhappily turned out fallacious. Be died yesterday at Bkle. Of his political career, which is well known, I wrote a short notice the other day, when the news of his death was prema turely announced. The leisure of his long arils, which, since the amnesty (which he refused to profit by), was voluntary, he devoted principally to the composition of military works. One, the "Cam paign of 1815," has attracted much attention, sad been the subject of much controversy ; another, "the Campaign of 1813," is yet unpublished. Colonel Charras leaves a widow (the daughter of M. Keetner, one of his oolleagues in the Legislative Assembly), to whom he was married after his banishment in 1851. The Indtpendance states that a man was killed the other day, in the Hotel Dieu, by an overdose of chloroform. A celebrated professor amputated his arm without perceiving that the patient was dead, and all the spectators were equally mistaken. The Bourse has been very heavy. Rente fell 15c. for cash and account, closing at 66fr. 850., and 66fr. 90c. ; Mobilise fell 6fr. 25c. The health of Mr. W. B.

I —Lost night public meeting of the election of rough of Orseewick was held at the Literary Isekltatioe, Royal-hill, in that town, to hoar an address from Mr. W. degerstein, M.P. , explanatory of his views as pablioques dons. The chair was occupied by Mr. B. Cook, of Black. bath, who briefly referred to the put awoke. of Mr. ha genitals as a member for that borough. Mr. Angerstein, M.P., who was wall delved, commenced his address by widths' his oonatitands a happy new year, and a:prairies a hops that the events of the present year and especially that of the election of a new parliament, w ould prove boas- Acid to all classes of the commuoity, and tend to added the cause ef proper, reform, and retreediment. Haviag bristly reviewed the odds of the last assoion, he said, that although much had base done of a bee nature during it, more might innately have bees done ; hat there were at least two reasons why this had ad hew the ore. First, the peened parliament was the bullies of that political party which was opposed to any comprehensive measure at progress sad reform' and, secondly, it was very ' much the fault of tits people.

PION OUR OWN OONZWINvoc..., FLORINCI, 351. 10 Within three months the court sad the adminis tration of a realm of 22,000,000 of inhabitants are to be removed from Turin to rorenoe, which, with its palatial public buildings and countless convents, is quite capable of accommodating the King and his court, the Senate and the Chamber of Deputies, the different ministries, and great public boards. But it is not enough to find room for the public offices. The officials too, and their families, must be housed, and spars room must be found for all the merchants and manufacturers who live by the court and the government, and for all those idlers who 'like to bask in the rays of a court, and for that floating population which transacts bedneet wit espilel. An intelligent Englishman eanneeted a building company at Turin took detailed informa tion about the number of people who ars likely to remove to Form*, and found that between forty and fifty thousand persons are to increase the popu lation of the new capital within a twelvemonth. Now Florence hes about 110,000 inhabitants, not including the garrison : ant of these only 5,000 are entered on the rolls of the Weston as householders, lawyers, physicians, someone, emission, surveyors, und prolesoces ; for Mr. Disraeli's fancy franehlesi thrives here in full bloom. About 10,000 eon- ts the Setting tffitifidefilei of travdkts • sat foreign residento--migratory birds, who some in autumn and defeat in spring. This we nay say that the number of inhabitants will be increased by ose-third, and the vanguard of that migration is to arrive in April. But Florence remains as dreary as it has been for the last hundred years. There is no extraordinary activity at the municipality, no new buildings are waded, no adonis put in cedar for the new comers. The Flmees are angry at l Ming disturbed in their agreeable sleepy ***tense • the working population are uneasy about the inevi : table raising of house renta—the artists and art students, about the Doming bustle of the capitaL The town council and municipality discuss dically the plans for the extension of rieli submid to them by kreagn and never decide anything : they ma il = be wildered, unfit for their teak, utterly desponding. Under the government of the Austrian Archdukes Florence bad got a cosmopolitan character ; it was a boarding-house for all Europe—even the anoes tail palaces of the Bastolini Salimbinis, of the Persizie and Ricasolis were transformed into the Bends du Nord, Della Porta Roma, and New York ; and the municipality did not care much for the comfort or even the sanitary condition of the town. Owing to the want of cleanlinem in copse queues at the scarcity of water, Florence became the , hotbed of an endemic eruption, "the Miliary fever," as dangerous as scarlatina, which year after year decimates the population ; bat no sanitary commission has as yet inquired into the best mewl of stopping the ravages of that disease. Not lees disastrous are the periodical inundations of the Arno, ever sinoe the great dam of the Upper Arno has been levelled, against the advice of Ihissombroni, !who predicted these overflowings of the river with mathematical pre- 1 elision. Tempt by the disaster of 1848, the inuni.l eipality had indeed built a large sewer on the WI bank of the Arno, which intercepts the sewage awl rainfall of the greater portion of the town, mad carries them into the river below the walls ; but the sewers of the right bank are still is • most peind , tire, unsatisfactory condition. For the traffic of a capital most of the streets are by far too narrow ; for the sudden increase of the population the town is too small ; under any circumstances the water, supply is insufficient, and a spacious market and slaughter-houses are indispensable ; for streets in the centre of the town should not remain reeking with vegetable reins, and the blood of animals. These ought to be the principal cares of the Gonfa. loniere and his officers. But though it has bola known since last September that Florence is to be- i come the capital, neither of those questions has found any solution. If is England or America such a change were expected in any town, thousands and thousands would be busy to take advantage of tba opportunity; but here we live in a country of POOO - everybody preparing for fleecing tins vadat.' in search of an apartment, but nobody caring for their comfort. Government at last became alarmed by the apathy of the municipality. O le of the ministers declared that if house rent rose too high, he would oscupy half-a-dozen con vents out of the forty-three which Mill stand in Flo rence, and less e them on moderate terms to the officials of his department. Of course this is only a threat against the greedy householders who want to take advantage of the extraordinary circum stances,acoording to the laws of demand and supply. The plan of the Minister of Public Works is by far more rational ; he recommended his subordinates to seek apartments in the neighbouring towns of Prato and Pistoja, where there are plenty of large houses scarcely tenanted, whilst the railroad com pany is ready to run in the morning and evening two extra trains, with reduced fares for season ticket-holders. It has been resolved, besides, not to transfer all the offices at once, bat only gradually during the coming eight months, that the sudden and simultaneous pressure should not create famine prices.
