PIEDMONT.

On the 20th inst., the Chamber of Deputies of
Turin was discussing the Civil Pension Bill. On the
19th, the Minister of Finance had presented (five
projects of law to the Chamber. One of them autho-
rised the National Bank to increase its capital by
8,000,000 of livres, another proposed certain modifi-
cations in the tariff, and a third was relative to the
construction of a railway between Turin and Suze.
The Corriere Mercantile of Genoa quotes a letter
from Rome of the 15th, stating that the French go-
vernment has again represented to the pap,l see,
that it is urgent to adopt reforms which may render
the further presence of French troops useless at
Rome.

ROMAN STATES.
Our correspondent writes:
ROME, MAncit 16.
Bonfires and bands of music enlivened the streets
of Rome last night in honour of the newly-created
cardinals, who received the homage and congratula-
tions of their reverend brethren, as well as of the
Roman nobility and prelacy, and the crowds of illus-
trious foreign visitors at present in this capital. The
English especially resorted in great force to the recep-
tion of Cardinal D'Andrea, at the Sciarra Colonna
Palace, in the hope of getting a glimpse of the pic-
ture gallery of masterpieces, which the legal dis-
putes of the Sciarra family have so long kept closed
from the public. The new members of the Sacred
College are Cardinals bonnet, Archbishop of Bor-
deaux, aged 55 ; Lucciardi, aged 56 ; Moricchini,
aged 46 ; and D'Andrea, late delegate of Perugia, not
quite forty years old. Count Bentivolio, one of the
Pope's noble guards, was sent to present the red
eculleap and insignia of cardinalitian dignity to the
French prelate, in whose honour the French ambas-
sador last night threw open the magnificent
saloons of the Colonna Palace to all the Ita-
ian and foreign grandees in Rome. Be-
sides these cardinals above-named, his Holiness
created two more, whom he reserved in Ivan. He
also appointed several prelates to archbishoprics and
bishoprics, in different parts of the Continent, and
named Cardinal Patrizi conterlenyo of the Sacred
College, in room of Cardinal Brignole.

AUSTRIA.

An uncertainty as to the fate of the Marianna
is now at an end. The Trieste Gazette of the
18th states that tho cover of a chest, with the inscrip-
tion " Captain Wohlgemuth" (one of the officers on
board), and a small wooden box with letters, in the
writing of the ship's surgeon, have been picked up
at Porto Tolle, at the mouth of the Po. Small boats
with the name of the vessel painted on them have
also been seen, and five of the men brought into
Chioggia by • fisherman have been recog-
nised as having formed part of the Marianna's crow.
Field-Marshal Admiral Wimpfen has received, at
Trieste, a telegraphic despatch from Vienna, convey-
ing the Emperor's personal assurance that he will
make provision for the wife of Captain Wohlgemuth,
and requiring a list of the crew, with a statement of
their condition, and if married, tho number of their
children. The officers on board the Marianna were
Captain Maurice Wohlgemuth, Lieutenants Joseph
Sermute and Baron Julius Kabeek, Cadets George
Wahrmuth, Augustus Willicie, and Joseph Taso ;
the surgeon, Karl Pelidan, with 2 engineers, 38
sailors, 4 artillei7men, 8 infantry, 3 private servants,
and 3 artisans—in all 66 persons.
