LOMA Rwr.—ln my letter of yesterday I mentioned
to you that the Provisional Government had expelled
the Jesuits. Fifteen conveats of that society in Lom-
bardy were closed, and their entire property seques-
trated.
The Provisional Government at Milan had taken
the title of the Central Provisional Government of
Lombardy, and had pronounced a dissolution of all
local provisional governments, having invited the pro-
vinces to send delegates to Milan. The following
committee had been appointed to prepare and present
Immediately a project of law, to regulate the convo-
cation of the primary assemblies and to collect and
verify their suffrages.
Alessandro Perro, commissaire-du gouvernement,
president; Gioachino Basevi, Paolo Bassi, Giovanni
Berchet, Cons. Giuseppe Borghi, Carlo Gattaneo, Avv.

It was reported that troubles had broken out at
Trieste, where the population was divided, but the
majority was said to be in favour of Austria. The
tri-coloured cockade had been torn from the French
consul, who was supposed to favour the Italian party.
He had expedited a steamer to give notice of this
fact to the French squadron.
The advice. received to-day from Italy supply
some further details, in addition to those which I gave
in the postscript to my letter of this morning, the
date of which it will be remembered was Volta, the
head-quarters of the King of Sardinia on the 11th.
Reinforcements and artillery were on their way to
aid in reducing Peschiera. Lieut.-General Ghigi ar-
rived on the 12th at the Piedmontese head-quarters,
with letters from the Tuscan General Ferrari, placing
the 5,000 Tuscans under his command at the die-
po al of Charles Albert. Two h ,ndred Neapolitans
arrived at Brescia on the 10th, and announced that
12,000 Neapolitan regular troops were to arrive at
Pavia on that day, and 10,000 more were on the
Lower Mantuan territory, with artillery. Another
engagement is said to have taken place at Villa-
reggio, near Peschiera, with a successful result on
the part of the Italians. At Rive, on the Lake of
Garda, the tri-colour flag is ho'sted, and the Mayor
of Gardino, in Tyrol, has sent in his adhesion to
the Brescian government. A rumour was current
on the 1 1 th, that Peachiera had surrendered. Pal-
manova has been put in a complete state of defence
by the Venetian government, and Piedmontese
artillerymen are on their way thither to take the
management of the numerous cannon captured there.
The king of Naples has published a proclamation,
dated the 7th, in which, after declaring his since' e ad-
hesion to the unity of Italy, and his determination to
take part in the struggle in Lombardy, he invites his
subjects of the Two Sicilies to union and concord.
A letter from Brescia, gives an account of thearrestof
the provincial delegate Breindl on the sth, which caused
great excitement among the inhabitants. Breindl was
accused of having concerted the destruction of
the town with the Austrian commander of the citadel,
before the capitulation. On the above-mentioned
day he surrendered in the Palazzo Bevilacqua, and
was with difficulty saved from the fury of the people
by the priests. He is now under prosecution, and
will probably be condemned to death.
