PIEDMONT.

"This morning," says the Genoa Mercantile Cor-
riere, of the 26th,
The first column of the French troops, now marching
through Piedmont, entered our city by the Pile Gate. It
consisted of the first squadron of the 11th Regiment of
Dragoons. The Ist Regiment of the Guards was drawn
up on the left, close to the gate ; along the street leading
ti the gate of the Arco. An immense crowd assembled
on the passage of the French, who entered the Pile Gate
on foot, holding their hones by the bridle. They, how-
ever, mounted them again on reacbiog the gate of the Arco,
and took off their cloaks. The French colonel had on his
right the g 1 commanding the brigade of the Guards,
and on his left General Alexander della Mansion, followed
by a numerous staff. The French were quartered in the
gnat Provision Magazine."

A correspondsat, writing on the 26th inst.. says :

An incident, too trilling, perhaps, to interest persons at a
distance, has just ceased some embarrassment here. The
Taria Club lately black•ballsd as attache who has recently
joined the French legation. In twasequenee of this, the
Duke de Malebo has sent his resignation as member of
the club, and his example has been followed by all the
members of the English legation, including the envoy,
Mr. Hudson, himself. The reams of this exclusion is
mostly politiml. The club includes a great many persons
belonging to the reactionary party, and who are perfectly
furious at the adhesion of Piedmont to the treaty of alliance.
One of these individuals, the Coact of Cardenas, published
only a few days ago a pamphlet on "the Piedmont's* is
the Crimes," in which he warts that the Dabs of Chicle
had imposed the conditions of the treaty on the Ministry.

The Madrid Glaratte of the 24th contains the fol-
lowing :

Tslevaphie deepatabee free &magma, rosidmil

eity, is siossimesibm of the npromdlia of ems menses sem-
milted by wartime. Ties matimmi guard asseash:ed spec•
taammisly, and yaws tb.fr suppers I. the authorities, who
with the greatest morn re-esteldiaed order. The army,
the natioaal ml the asilmetiles rivalled melt other
is seal la the wire of the laws and public
tranquillity, as maimeamatly Mated. The Quiet ordered
that a Wessman doepaha should immediately be sent off
ezpreesieg her smelted* to them who so well discharged
their duty.

In the Congress, the Minister of the Interior stated
*at the government had received additional dm
wishes *at day from Esarragosea, announcing the
seadminse of tranquillity, and that a deputatiom
from the municipality had been sent to Madrid;
also. that dm regular ' and the greater part of

tioo _
the 'national guard continued to behave exoeula. "ngly
well.

In the same sitting, M. Madoz, the new Finance
Minister, made his first appearance in that character
before the Cortes. M. Madoz spoke out on the sub-
ject of the national finances. He said that, on enter-
ing office, M. Madoz found something like a hundred
thousand francs in the public coffers. All the sources
for replenishing the void are nearly, if not quite,
dried up. A province, for instance, that used to yield
30,000 reals of salt tax every month, contri-
butes now barely 400. Before a month is
over, the floating debt will have reached
the enormous sum of 700 millions of reals.
Amongst other things, M. Madoz proposed the sale
of civil and ecclesiutical property—of the latter
without waiting for the consent of the Pope. His
plan being submitted to a vote, was approved of by
210 votes to 13.

The .Espana asserts that in almost all the principal
towns of the province of Malaga, disturbances more
or less serious had taken place, and that in some the
intervention of troops had been necessary. On the
17th it says a strong military force bad to be sent
from Malaga to Honda; it was reported, it asserts,
that the rioters in that town had, amongst other
exceeses,*put the alcaldo to death. The same journal
adds, that besides the disturbances at Sarragossa, a
band of 130 men assembled by sound of trumpet,
proceeded to cat down wood, and commit other acts
of destruction in the neigbourhood of that city. The
local authorities and the civic guard had, however,
arrested the ringleaders in these outrages.
A Madrid letter of the 24th says:
It is believed in financial circles that the new Minister of
Finance intends to convert the floating debt into a consoli-
date one. The government bast dby telegraph that the
ex-Infante, Don Juan, and General Cabrera are still in
London; also that Coast de Montemolino has not left
Naples. Yteterday three men wearing the uniform of the
National Guard went to the hotel of M. Carriquiri, the rich
banker, and announced that they had come to protect it, as
a riot was about to break out, and the intention was to pil-
lage the premiers. The autbor Wes having been informed
of this strange visit caused the three protectors of private
property to be arrested. Almost at the same moment some
men were arrested at the Puerta del 8.)1 forcrying--."I he
Republic for ever." Notwithstanding all this, order does
not seem to be seriously threatened in the capital. But the
gnvernment is concentrating aimed forces in different post-

pality to ask fur work, but they made as hostile demon.
