ITALY.

The correspondent of the De nocrazia of Bellinzona
writes from Turin, on the 9th, that the Chevalier de
Burger, the new governor of Lombardy, has decided
that the Milan Gazette shall cease to appear in
December next. The Bilancia will then be the only
paper published at Milan. The governor, it is said,
is a man of talent and impartiality, and appears to
entertain conciliatory sentiments towards Ticino.
Since M. de Burger's arrival facilities have been
granted to several Ticinese who were desirous of
going to Milan on business. Among them are
several persons affected by the decree of expulsion.
The writer thinks that when negotiations shall have
been resumed, the good disposition of the governor
will render an honourable arrangement easy.

ROME, Ocr. 12.
The ROMIIn Journal of the Pith instant states
that the minister of finance has completed, and is
about to publish, the balance of state revenue and
expenditure from the Ist January, 1848, to the end
of June, 1849. The details of this document will be
highly interesting, referring to the turbulent periods

of the revolution, the flight of the Pope, the repub-
lic. and the capture of Rome.
The vacant mission from the holy see to the court
of Napoleon 111. has been conferred upon Monsignor
Sacconi, hitherto nuncio at the court of Bavaria,
where it appears he was not upon the best possible
terms with the government, but where be made the
acquaintance of one of the French ministers, through
whose influence he obtained the present important
appointment.
Mr. Freeborn, British eoneular agent, returned to
Rome on the Bth inst., with an escort of dragoons
from Viterbo to Ronciglione.
On the oth instant, paper money to the amount of
232,407 scudi, 401 baiocs, was burnt in the
I Sacro Monte Palace, a corresponding amount of
metal having been issued. The instruments used for
making and printing the notes, called iwni di surro-
Igazione, were also formally destroyed. Nut with-
standing these ceremonies, the calling in of the dollar
notes has tended to raise the price of silver from
per cent. to 21. Political intelligence from the East
Las likewise had its effect upon the Bursa, the ex-
change upon London being now 474; Roman Con-
sols, 96.40; Bank shut's, 253.

Hie Holiness has ordered Signor Jaeometti's fine
group, representing Judas betraying our Saviour
with a kiss, a noble and touching production,
to be executed in marble at the Pontiff's private
expense, and placed at the foot of the recently re-
stored Scala Santa.

We hear nothing more of the conspiracy trial.
One of the young men condemned three years ago to
25 years of the galleys for making Bengal lights, the
son of Signor Feoli, the great capitalist, came to an
untimely end a few days ago. Through his lather's
interest his condemnation had been comniuted into
exile—but lately he had obtained leave to return to
Rome, whence he thought prudent to retire to a
country house, on account of the suspicion hanging
over him in common with other liberals. In getting
through a hedge with a loaded gun, in pursuit of a
fox, the trigger caught in a branch, and the charge
entered his bteast.

A French lieutenant shot himself last week.

Two men and a woman were beheaded at Viterbo
on Saturday, the nth inst. It appears that they
richly deserved the penalty, but the tedious course of
criminal trials in this country may be appreciated by
the fact that the three wretches had been in prison
seven years before being brought to the scaffold.
