SPAIN.

The Madrid mails of the 21st inst. have conic to
hand.
The Madrid Gazette contains a report from Oct.
Concha which represents the civil war in Catalonia to
be at an end. The government, to recompense his
service', has promoted him to the
Draßnmir,o:leAaypt2aii.n.
general (field marshal). Our correspondent writes:

In the session of yesterday a serious debate
took place upon the intervention of the Spanish
forces in the Pontifical states. Seven deputies of the
extreme left—MM. Order de Avecilla, Rivero, Wig,
Aguilar, Martin, Muchads, and Gasco--presented
resolution " that the chamber sees with high displea-
sure the departure of a military expedition against
the city of Rome." The government gained by 155
against 17.
In Catalonia there are still some insignificant bands
of 130 or 200 men.

ITALY.
EXECUTION OF GENERAL RAMORLNO.
SARDINIA.—Our correspondent writes:
The appeal made by. General Ramorino to the
Court of Cessation having been rejected, the ten-
tence of the court martial of the 3rd instant wee
carried into execution this morning (May 22nd)
at six o'clock. General Ramorino died with in
and his eyes uncovered. Re
in a firm voice gave the word of command, to fire,
himself, to the platoon who were to put him to death.
The following were his last words : "Notwithetanding
that an excessive love for my country has been the
cause of my death, still I recommend to you, soldiers,
fidelity to your King and love to your country. I
forgive all those who have concurred in my death,
and hope that history will justify my memory."
ROMAN STATES.—The intelligence from Rome
is of the 18th. On the 17th the Constituent Assem-
bly sat and heard a rep:rt from Mezzini, and a pro-
posal on his part to send a commission of three mem-
' bere to confer with General Oudinot and M. Lesseps
las to the state of affairs and the means of an IN
range ment. After some consideration, it was deter-
mined to choose the members, who were named as
' follows :—Sturbinetti, senator and general-in-chief of
the national guard, and MM. Audinot and Cer-
nuschi. Alazeini also announced the passing of
armistice between the French and Romans, and gave
the assurance that no hostilities would take place
until further orders. M. Lesseps left on the morning
of the 17th for the French camp.
On the 17th Garibaldi marched out of home
attack the Neapolitans, who did not wait for his
approach.
All the Paris journals state that the result of M.
Lesseps' mission has been a treaty which has received
the approbation of Gen. Oudinot, and in which it it
said the temporal power is sacrificed in a greet
measure.
Our correspondent writes :
ROME, MAY li.
Colonel Mezzacapa, with 4,000 men, and 10 pieces
of cannon, was last night at Monterosi, and might
easily attack the French on the north aide, towards
evening, whilst Garibaldi would make his aortic from
the city with a strong force, should the terms offered
for a pacific settlement not be acceded to. If, on the
contrary, they are accepted, the Romans will instantly
direct their whole force to the annihilation of the
Neapolitan army, and to the capture of King Ferdi-
nand's most sacred person, even should they be obliged
to pursue him to his own capital, as he is to have the
honour of paying the expenecs of the war.
Tee French are said to be badly off for provisions
and water, according to the report of some country
people taken as guides, who succeeded in making
their escape.

The Messagiere Modanese, of the 11th, states that
the Austrians had began their march upon Fan"
and that their head quarters were at San Dann,
near Bologna. By a notification of the civil and mili-
tary Austrian governor Gorzkowski, of the 15th, at
4 p-m., Bologna is declared in a state of siege, the
press is placed under preventive censure, the civic
guard suspended, the corps francs dissolved, and arse
of every description are to be given up.
VENICE.—The Austrians are making tremendous
efforts to take the fort of Iti.lghera, but as yet with-
out success. Upwards of 500 shells are thrown every
day, but they bury themselves generally in the w. 4
and do no harm. General Ha u, having sent an
order to the consuls that all foreign vessels of war
were to leave Venice, these gentlemen have replied
that they can receive no orders from an Austrian ge-
neral, but that they await instruction from their go-
vernments. Food is becoming very scarce is
Venice.
