ITALY.

The rupture between the Holy See and the Sardinian
Government has become complete. The Sardinian
Representative at Rouse has received his passport.
This measure of the Pope is said to have arisen in con-
sequence of the nature of the reply given by King
Victor Emmanuel at Monza to the deputation from the
Romagno.
A letter frotn Turin of the 27th ult. says : —" Yester-
day the British Minister, Sir James Iludsmi, left here,
having suddenly been suminoueil by Lord John Russell.
All the Italians are full of confidence in the English
nation, and in those who at present conduct its dip-
lomacy."
The King of Naples has been in the country, where
he was expected to meet the Pope, whore health is in
a fair way of recovery. It was said that these two
Sovereigns intended to concert measures how best to
face the storm which they anticipate will soon invade
their territories from the north. The return of the
King to Naples may have been hurried on by events,
for late advice, front that city say that 15,009 soldiers
had been sent to the frontiers, and that their number
was expected to be increased to 25,000. As far as the
Neapolitan provinces are concerned, there seems to be
no doubt that in one of them, at least in the Abruzzi,
insurrection has raised ita head. Fourteen persons be-
longing to noble families have been arrested. They are
accused of holding reunions for the discussion of
politics.
The following telegram, dated October 6, has been
received from Parma :—A horrible occurrence took
place yesterday evening. The Count Anviti formerly
Colonel of the troops of Parma, and held ill detestation
by the people, was passing through Parma on his way
to Placentia, but was recognized at the railway station
and arrested. The populace, informed of his arrest,
broke open the barracks of the Gendarmerie where he
was confined, and, haviivg seized the unfortunate Count,
he was dragged through the city, receiving blows on all
sides. His hands were fastened together with a cord,
and he was thus pulled through the streets until he
arrived opposite a cuff that he was in the habit of ire-
frequenting, where, while he was still a/ive, his head
was cut off, and then carried in triumph to the Grand
Place, where it was placed on the top of a column. The
cries of joy of the populace increased the terrors of the
scene. The Notional Guard and the troops were called
out, but arrived when all was over. At 9 o'clock in the
evening quiet again reigned in the city, and the body of
Count Anviti was conveyed to the hospital. The city
was being traversed by patrols.

AFFAIRS 01 ITALY.

A French Ministerial journal announced on Saturday
that the treaty of peace was to be signed at Zurich this
week. All accounts agree that the treaty keeps as
dimly as possible, so far as it goes, to the stipulations of
VlRetreats. Concerning those points of the Italian
question which will be left undecided by the treaty, an
appeal will be made, says a Parisian contemporary, to a
higher tribunal; by which it is evidently meant that a
Congress is to be held.
The Spedator repeats, on the faith of its Paris cor-
respondent, its detailed statements of last week. It
says that "the Congress which is proposed is to be held
at Brussels. France and Austria are d'aceurd on the
Italian question, and will act together. Their policy
is to give beak the Legations to the Pope, to restore the
Grand Duke of Tuscany. and to concede the strung
places of Peschiere and Mantua to Piedmont. There is
also reason to think that the Doke of Modena will not be
reinstated, and that his territory will be divided
between Parma and Tuscany." That all the details are
settled, the correspondent will not smart ; but Franca
and Austria, aceorditg to his information, are agreed on
the principle of opposing in a Congress the annexation
of the Duchies to Piedmont. . . . .

To this we will add • report which has made its
appearance in the German press. According to the
Strabinse Mercury, two projects of an Italian Confeder-
ation have been drawn up—one by Count de Recliberg,
which has been taken to Biarritz by Prinoe Metternich,
and the other by the French Cabinet.
It is asserted that the Austrian Government has con-
vented to reduce the debt of Lombardy, to be borne by
Piedmont, from four hundred millions to little more
than half this sum. _ _

A circular note has been addressed by the Sardianian
Government, as the Paris journal* inform us, to the
Court a lit. James, Paris, and St. Petersburg, insisting
upon the necessity of the formation of a strong State in
Upper Italy, able to cheek Austria. That is to any,
the King of Sardinia. in accordance with the promise*
he Made to the deputations from the Duchies, has now
set to work to plead the cause of the annexation scheme
before Europe.
The annexation of Tuscany to Sardinia is now for-
mally pronounced by the Provisional Goverunwnt at
Florence. The Governinent has lases:ll a decree order-
ing that all judgments pronounced by the tribunals of
Sardinia, Parma, Modena, and the Romagna, and all
authentic deeds signed in diode countries, shall receive
legal execution in 'rascally. A jitoclaination has been

From Bologna we learn that a decree of the Provi-
eional ilovernment states that in future every public act
shall he headed thus :—" Under the reign of his Majesty
the King Victor Emmanuel," Lc., he. The arms of
Savoy have been placed on all public buildings, and
on this occasion • religions festival took place. General
Garibaldi and the Marquis de Pepoli have been received
with great enthusiasm by the people.
The Government of Modena has ordered the immedi-
ate restitution to General Zucchi .4 all his property,
confiscatai by the laike of Modena. General Knecht
had commanded the insurgent* in 1531.
on his arrival at Ravenna, General Garibaldi ad-
dressed the following words to the people who had
asaellibled under the window* of the Govertior'm palace :
—" We must arm while we are able to wield a weapon;
independenee is inure difficult to preserve than to COn-
Illter. Armed as we are, our concord frightens our
enemies ; we shall always be united for the liberty and
independence which Italy demands. When a whole
people calls for it, it is God himself who inspires it with
the thought, and in God's name we will defend it." A
national .übacription bah been opened to purchase arms
for Garibaldi's corps.
