the Minister of the Interior, on his own au-
thority and responsibility, and without con-
sulting the assembly, published an ordon-
stance establishing a corps called the " Garde
Mobile a Cheval," the men composing which were
selected like those of the republican guard, and the
other irregular from those who had been most sig-
nalised in the revolution of February. The officers
were alse irn.guterly appointed, and lime strong re-
monstrances were excited. A committee of the as-
Embly reported yesterday that 014 corps was useless,
that its establishment was illegal, that the finances
were not in a condition to Kear the charge, and the
assembly accordingly refused the grant and annulled
the decree of the ex-Minister of the Interior.

The greatest inconveniences are felt from the esta-
blishment of the guard mobile and the other corps
created since the revolution. Tke conditions of their
enlistment and their pay are enormously more fa-
vourable than those of the regular army, while their
discipline is ruinously lax. Discontent among the
troops is the consequence of the comparative high pay
and the worst example is presented by the want of
discipline. The Assembly and the government are
conscious of these evils, but it is a much more difficult
matter to remedy them than to have created them.

It is reportt tilers that Lord Normauby is about to
quit Patio, and that Lord Holland will succeed him,
not as an ambassador, but as minister, conformably
to the usages of the republic, which only names no-
misters or charge d'affaires to the foreign courts, with
the exception of the holy see.
Gemini Oadinot is ordered to form a division
from the troops at Moulins, Lyons, and Grenoble, and
to march to Toulon, where orders are already sent to
a division of our fket. These troops will, it is said,
sail for the Adriatic, and occupy a city near the l'o,
in concert with the I'ope, who wants assistance
against the Austrians, and even his own subjects.

We have received tho Madrid mails of the 24th
with the letter of our correst ondent. The formal
and explicit acknowledgment of the Queen by
the Court of Austria is officially announced.
The forced loan is collecting. The facility
with which it is got in is remarkable. The Madrid
mail of the 15th to Barcelona was stopped and robbed
by the rebels before arriving at Cervera. The corre-
spondence was burned. l)on Francisco de Paula is said
to have selected Portugal as the place of his exile. His
daughter, 'the ex-Intanta Jusera, with her husband,
Guell y ltente, will ascompany him. The Queen
goes on well.
The laternational of Bayonne publishet‘ a
letter from the frontiers of Catalonia, of the
22nd, in which it is stated that on the 16th Cabrera
was in the environs of Vidra, a small toe% n of 800 in-
habitants, in the province of Vich, and at six hours'
march from the town of that name. He had there,
it is said, 1000 men assembled. It was reported
that in a recent engagement he had caused seri-
ous losses to the Queen's troops, but this was not
confirmed. In the action of the 11th, the Montemoli-
nists had it appears 20 killed and 30 wounded. It is
said that Cabrera caused three officers who fell into
his hands to be shot, fur, as he said, having adhered
to the treaty of Bergura. On the 19th an engage-
ment took place at the bridge of Mallagarriga, in
which the Montemolinists, headed by Custells and
Tristany, had 8 killed, whilst the Queen's troops sus-
tained no loss. Throughout all Catalonia there are bands
of esthete who are Ix ginning to intercept the couriers.
On the 16th, that of lierga was tided, and, besides the
letters, two boxe, directed to l'aredes, the com-
mandant general of the province, were taken. The
mail from Madrid to Barcelona was seized on the
18th,at 11 o'clock at night, by a band, who burned the
carriage and took away the horses.

By the Levant mail we have rec-ived Constanti-
nople journals to the 16th, and Athens journals to the
18th, both inclusive. The Vairrier d 'Welles of the
17th says : " The new cabinet has not yet done any-
thing to realise the promises its friends made us. A
considerable deficit (183,000 drachmas) has been dis-
covered in the Treasury, upon an investigation ordered
by the late Minister of Finances. The Treasurer-
General has been arrested, and a prosecution com-
menced. The budget for 1848 is at last about to
be presented to the Senate. That of 18-17, which
this assembly has essentially modified, must ne-
cessarily go back to the Chamber of Deputies.
The financial crisis, or rather the emptiness of the
treasury, continues to keep the creditors of the state
in despair. An attempt has been made to negotiate a
loan from the bank, but without success. The senate
has voted su uet of Impeachmest against the ex-
minister Riga Palamedes. That individual has taken
refuge with the French legation, of which he has
been the protege. Ile is charged with embezzlement
of the public moneys, and is condemned to repay to
the treasury 12.0,000 drachms, of which he gave no
account. Riga never ventures out of the hotel of the
French embassy.
Our correspondent at Constantinople writing on the
13th, says :
Suleynum Pack, who was lately ambaessoor at Pon* has
set out es till Sultan's plenipotentiary to Bucha.est. Ile
will, of course, supersede Tslaat Effendi.
By the latest tteentinfa from Persia it appears that that
country is in a state of revolution and anarchy, which will
bear comparison, and that is saying a great deal, with that of
the moat disturbed parts of Europe at this moment.
At Shiraz the people have risen and expelled the govern-
ment authorities. At Tabriz, also, there was a scene of
the most frightful• mass.cre and destruction, the Mahome-
tans having risen and murdered all the Armenian linhabi
tants, besides burning down all the houses in their quarter.
The sole reason assigned fur this enormous outrage was the
alleged abduction of some Persian women by some young
Armenians, in consequence of which the Persians were ex-
cited by their fanatic and vindictive passions to the commis-
sion of these (rightful execs.'s. In Kborassan, the royal
• troops had been everywhere defeated and put toight, and
the Sabo was again triumphant. Information has been si-
multantoudy received from Bagdad that the father of the
latter, Assabul-Dowlali, has suddenly withdrawn from Bag-
cad, where he was living in exile; and it is expected that we
shall bear, by the next post, of his having raised the
standard of rebelliou in Persia. In addition to these troubles,
the Shah was sail to have come to almost an open rupture
with the Russian minister at Teheran. The subject of the
dispute being the confiscation of the property of Bahman Mecca,
the Shah's brother, who has lately taken refuge in Russia.
The cholera is much diminished in this city, and also at
Emma, Gallipoli, end Galati, but it continues in all its
force at Yasai, Ibraill, and Odessa. It is also devastating
lilo.elasis hi n fearful manner. The deaths in the capita.
are upwind' of 200 a day. The news of the fresh disturbances
in Paris tithe 23rd to the 26th all, have occasioned here a
great sensatio... and done much injury to French credit, which
was regaining its former footing.

ITALY.
PROVISIONAL GOVERNMENT AT

ROME.

(By the Biretrie Telegraph of the South Xsetern Rarltray.)

Since the reception of the Italian news given below,
we have received the following telegraphic de.patch
from our Paris correspondent, dated yesterday: "At
Rome, on tho 20th, the populace enraged at the re-
sistance of the Pope to the demand that they should
declare war again4t Austria, had, after their invasion
of the ehatnber, attempted to seize the Castle of Saint
Angelo."
"On the 22r.J, the Pope ?dB persisting in his de-
termination, the chomber, en conjunction with the
people, appointed a provi.ional government."
By letters from Villafranca, dated the 24th inst., it
is said that the Piedraontese under Charles-Albert had
defeated the Austrians, who, to the number of 25,000
men, had recccupied Rivoli, and that he had taken
600 prisoners. 'I he Austrians had recrossed the Mincio
I It Saliaory, a few miles below I'eschiera.

ROME.—Our despatches contain the following
more ample account concerning the important news
flora Rome given above in brief by electric tele-
graph i—lhe discontent produced by the refusal of
the Pope to sinction a declaration of war against
Austria has', roktr out in disorders which appear to
have been modelled on the late popular manifestations
io Paris. 'fbe minister, Nlamiani, having first ex-
torted from the Pope a consent to a declaration of
commutieetell the intelligence to the chamber;
but on the following day his holiness retracted. In
omsequenec of this the ministry, at midnight of the
19th resigned, and the resignation was accepted. The
next day the Count Pasolini was summoned to the
Vatican and commanded to form a ministry.
Ile demanded, however, a previous authority
to declare war, which the Pope refusing, his
mission aas at an end, and the state lett with-
Dot a government. On the circulation of these news
nothing could exceed the exasperation of the people.
‘,hl the nil the greatest agitation reigned, and the
People made an attempt to take possession of the
castle of Sr. Angelo which stands almost at the gates
of the Vatit an ; they then proceeded to the Chamber
beputies demanding an immediate declaration of
