AGITATION IN ITALY.

The Unita Italian of the 2nd instant publishes
a letter from Martini, in which be calls the young
men of Italy to arms. After an historical retro-
spect, extending from 1176 to the present time,
and attributing all the triumphs of Italian inde-
pendence to the nameless heroes of the people, he
concludes with asking the youth of Italy why they
halt in such a noble career, seeing that Italy is not
free nor its unity realised.
"We shall not go to Rome," says Mazzini, "till
Venice has teen conquered. An Aspromonte on
behalf of Austria would be the death of anyone
that should attempt it. ' Venice, Venice,' should
be the cry on your lips. After solemn deliberation
let it go forth through the press and to the societies
' the task of to-day is war with Austria.' You will
do what remains afterwards."

At the same time there appears a circular from
the Venetian committee, addressed to the Venetian
exiles, in which they say :

Ton are the flower of oar country. Here mothers,
sisters, fathers, remember with pride bow a voice once
said to you " By becoming exiles you will serve Italy."
Leave what you regard as most dear and depart. With
you Venice gave its present blood to Italy and showed
what she could do for our oommcn mother. You were the
pride and the hope of all. Venice, without thinking
of herself, devoted your deeds to Italy. Venice demands
them back for Italy and for herself.
Garibaldi has also addressed a letter to the Vene-
tian oommittee of action, dated Caprura, July 24,
and published on the 3rd instant. He says :

The salvation of Italy depend' on the courage of her
people. Three years from to-day a spontaneous unanimous
popular vote announced to the astonished world the kingdom
of Italy. From that day her tree children have listened with
attentive ears for the cry which was to call them to Rome
and to Venice, and this cry has not been heard. The timid
who should be with us have held back, and the enthusiastic
are weakened, enervated, and despised. We moat sepa-
rate from the sluggards. The great day must soon come when
we shall find ourselves engaged with the spoilers of our
country, and then it will not be as it was in the past —a,
mere play. All must take the sword and strike without
pause, till the last link of our chains has been broken.
Your enterprise is holy, and we shall be with you in body
as we are with you in soul. Follow the noble example of
the Poles.
