through the Sardinian territory, the courier found the
roads everywhere crowded with troops moving in the
direction of the frontier. Large reinforcements were
Joining Radetzki, who was advancing to mot the
invading force at the head of from eighty to a
hundred thousand men. The Turin courier was de-
tained to the last moment at Paris by Lord Nor-
manby, apparently for the purpose of obtaining time

In the sitting of the Chamber of Deputies of Turin,

to ministers concerning the entrance of from 6,000 to
6,000 Modeneee and Austrians into Tuscany, and the
application for intervention mid to have been made to
the cabinet of Turin by the provisional government of

til the Hungarian contest is decided, and not without
