Letters from Turin state that on the Ist, 2nd. and
Jed of April ((unless prevented by unforeseen circum-
stances), the Bins of Sardinia will review the Pied-
montage coutisgeApeviously to its departure for the
Crimea. Th. ~isrs Merroptilsof Genoa says that

not arrive till April 10.
M. de Sacy, the principal editor of the Niels,
was sent for by the Minister of Interior this week,
and privately admooished on the subject of an article
'mid* lately appeared in that paper, reta-
il,* to the hostile demonstrations of the
students against the new professor, M. Saint
Beano. M. de Sag pleaded the rowel moderation
of his journal, and the scrupulous oars taken in every
de/partition of the editing to avoid giving offence.
As an instance of the habitual caution exercised, he
stated that the editor had erased from the article
complained of a statement to the effect that the feel-
ing among the young men in the University was so
strong against the former editor of the National
that, but for the intervention of the public force, it
would be impossible for him to matinee his course
of lectures. M. &Sault commended the exercise of
discretion, and added that had the above statement
(which, by the way, is strictly true) been printed,
the Dibata would have beer suspended.
On the Place dm Pidais-Bourbon, opposite the
principal entrance of the Corps Legislatif, is a pe-
destal originally intended to support the statue of
Louis XVIIL offering the charter to toe French
people. The revolution of 1830 came before this
statue had been inaugurated, and for many years
that of Mirabeas stood in its place. In 1848 Mira-
beau gave way to a colossal and very ugly allegorical
figure of the Republic; in plaster, which was de-
stroyed very soon after Dec. 2, 1851. Yesterday, a
marble figure, seated to a cantle chair, representing
France leaning upon the tables of the law, was
placed upon the pedestal as a definitive tenant.
Uoderneath the statue is the following inscription s
" Legis keno effigiem !elicitor impotent, Nipissas
lIL Imper. 1, domes q. iniperatonm pumas=
curavit, sone MDCCCLV.' On the right sod Mk
of the pedestal are sculptures, symbolising Problems,
Wisdom, and Justice, and at tie beck there is a
spread eagle with a crown of oak leaves.

The Mastery Gazette of Vienna states, on the
authority of a letter from Turin, that General La
Marmon, when at the head of the Bardinian'troops
to be sent to the Crimea, is to be placed in the same
position as Omer Pachs, that is to say, to exercise an
independent command, and to have a seat in the
council of war, but is to be bound by decisions of the
majority of the council. The Gazette adds that he
will probably leave for the East at the beginning of
April, to enter into communication with the Turkish
government and the allied generals.

After a few days of genial spring weather, winter
has some back to us again. It snowed hard nearly all
night, and to-day it is bitterly cold. The snow has
melted in the streets, but it lies to a considerable

BRITISH DOLNOS AT ROME.

(711.011 Till 001111111PONDRIT 07 TEN DAILT X1W11.)
ROME, Maim 17.
Oar catholic countrymen in this city have for the
last three days been engaged in oslebrating the Pops's
dogmatic decision on the Immaculate Conception
with a degree of pomp equally creditable to their
piety and their purees. iggpllection having been set
on tqot for the purpoesultineetieg the expense*, a
thousand ecudi (21W.) we* immediately sabectibsii,
and the arrangements in the sump,nons church of
the Jesuits, in the way of hangingsollumination, and
music, were consequently of the mast gorgeous kind.
On the first two days the sermons were in Italian,
and the preachers dwelt eloquently upon the pro.-
prrous times when •the whole British Empire bowed
obedience to the Holy See, and monasteries and nun-
neries were rife throughout the land; but yesterday
afternoon, being the brat day of the tritium, Dr. Brown,
bishop of Newport, held forth io English, delivering a
panegyric upon the Binned Virgin, to every crowded
audience of assenting catholic, and dissentient pro-
tesiants, from various parts of the three kingdoms,
besides vast numbers of Itomans, a few of whom
Lettered themselves that they could undustand an
English sermon, whilst the common herd took the
doctor's discourse for a Latin homily, and admitted
all he said, as a matter of course. There is really no
possible conjecture as to when these prolonged reyotc-
logs will be wound up. The next grand festival
which is promised us, connected with the immaculate
conception, is to be at the satire expense of the
Roman nobility, and is to take place Cr. long at the
Baths of Diocletian, in Michael Angelo's spacious
church of Banta Maria degli Angell. The aubecrip
lion towards the erection of the commemorative
column goes on well, his holiness having given 2,000
scudi from the apostolic palace fund, and 170 acudi more
having been received from the United States, making
the whole sum hitheato collected 12,920 wadi.

PARIS, SUNDAY EVINING.

The debates in the Corp. Legialatif on the new bill
"relative to the creating a dotation for the army,
re-enlistment, the providing of substitutes, and mili-
tary pensions," have been carried on for the last four
days with unusual animation, and are not yet over.
The discussion turns almost entirely upon the policy
of abolishing tho military assurance companies, and
creating a state monopoly in their business. That
military service is obligatory, has been a standing
priociple, recognised and acted upon in France (with
the exception of a period of three years in the
reign of Charles VII., and a few days in
the time of the first constituent assembly),
uninterruptedly from the days of Clotaire down to
those of Napoleon IIL The government does not
profess to make any change iu this principle, but the
opposition spelkers argue that the new bill does in
fact trench upon it most materially, and oomple.ely
overthrows the French military system which has
produoed such happy and glorious results, to substi-
tute for it an experiment pregnant with dangerous

The Pope has put forth no excommuoicatioa as yet
against the promoters or ratifiers of the obnoxious
anti-monastic law in Piedmont; indeed his attention
is rather diverted by the strong proceedings of the
same character in Spain, which will probably Widnes

See and the government of that country also. The

catholic, to which his principles well entitle him.

seasequences. Hitherto the state has said to every
einem of twenty years of age "You, are bound to
serve or provide a man." Now it is proposed to say,
"March, or pay." At first sight the &Settees does
teat stem so great as to be likely to entail the
inententons consequences apprehended by the oppo-
mints of the measure. Henceforth, as heretofore,
the ■sea drawn for the army who has no money must
eons, and the man who is able to command a certain
wee may free himself from the obligation if he
pleases. The project is undoubtedly open to all the
standing objections against stets monopolies, but on
the surface of the question it would probably occur to
few people to think that the quality of the army
would be greatly affected by the alteration. Notwith-
standing the extortion chanted against the aseurasce
companies it might be fairly doubted whether the
state could provide substitutes cheaper. Government
jobbery, government unwieldintes and incapacity to
enter into details. and the consequent rise in the
market price of a substitute might be thought to be
the worst evils to be apprehended. Bat the opposition
speakers, M M. de Mon talember t,Louvet, de Chuseloup
LIAM, and Legrand, the Marquis d' Andelarre, and
saws, take a mach wider view of the subjeot. They
isaistain that the bill strikes at the root of the system
which has produced extraordinary and envied reeekee

viding a man, who most of COWS, be bought with
money, and paying a sum to the state in lien of service
