ITALY.

ROMAN STATES.—It is expected that the next
'dews s from Rome will inform us of the retreat of the
Cardinals forming the red triumvirate. It is slid
that there was already a great division amongst
them. So at 'mist state letters, of the sth inst.,
published in the Condit's:innate of Florence. It was
said also that Cardinal Altieri was to become sole com-
missioner, he having quarrelled with Cardinal Vermi-
celli.
The Nationale of Florence, of the 7th, states, with
all poseible reserve, that it has received letters by
express from Rome, announcing that the military
commandant has definitively taken the power of the
state into his own hands, and deposed the cardinals.
From a proclamation of the pontifical commissioner
extraordinary, Monsignor Bedini, dated Bologna, the
6th. we learn that armed bands mill continue to rove
absut the vtuntry, and, it would appear, still create
considerable alarm. The proclamation states that the
military authorities have distributed arms to the pea-
santry, who, " not having partaken of the late deli-
rium, have deserved well of the country, and of the
government of the holy me." It further calls upon
all well-intentioned persons to aid in the dispersion of
the said bands, and promises rewards to all those who
can prove they have assisted in attacking and pursuing
them. Another proclamation by Count Strasoldo,
the same date, directs that moveable colu nits shall
cour tke infested parts of the country in every dim-
Von, and immediately shoot all brigands who may fall
into their hands.
LOMBARDY.—The Milan Gazette announces the
elf pluton of Marshal Radetsky for Vienna on
the Bth.
SARDLNIA.—The Concordia of Turin, of the
10. h, adds some particulars to those already known
concerning Garibaldi. His wife, it appears, really
died from fatigue, in a state of pregnancy, on the
sea-cwt, after landieg to escape from the attack of
the Austrian fleet, as our readers wiil remember. The
peasants sent to Ravenna for a physian, but he came
too late to save her. Garibaldi, after this heavy
blow, wandered for thirty-five days, under different
divines, in the fields, among the woods and moan-
tains os the Appenines, sleeping by day, and travel-
ling by night, sometimes a guest at the table
of the Creatisn, at other times walking unheeded
among the very men sent to apprehend tim ; till, at
last, having crossed the Tuscan Marentme he suc-
ceeded in embarking in a fishing-boat, and in the
disguise of • fisherman arrived at Chiavari. The
intendant bad the simprcity to ask him for his pass-
port, legalised by the Sardinian Caned! Garibaldi
unhesitatingly gave him a passport which a friend
had forced up in his acceptance, and observed that he
had unfortunately met with no Sardinian Consul in
the forests and ravines which he had crossed. Our
readers know the rest. At Genoa Garibaldi inhabits
an apartment belonging to the questor, where both he
and his companion, Captain Leggero, who had served
under him in America, are treated with every mirk
of consideration, though in fact they are under a sort
of arrest.

We have news from Berne to the 12th inst. The
federal council has det-rmined that all the refugees
who have figured as chiefs of movements in Germany
shall leave the ter-itory of the confederation within 3
days. Other refugees also are comprised in this mea-
sure. France allows them to pass through her domi-
nions. The refugees who are at Geneva will thus be
sent away.
The Suisse of Berne says, that, according to the
latest accounts, the Austrian troops on the Vorarlberg
only amounted to 10,000 men, most of whom were in
barracks. This is an answer to the exaggerated state-
ments of the Deutsche Zeitung. It is admitted, how-
ever, that the Austrian garrisons on the frontiers of
the canton of Teesin are on the increue.

GERMANY.

PRUSSIA.—Our correspondent writes :
BERLIN, Sm. 12.
The Czar left Warsaw= the evening of the 9th to
return to St. Petersburg. All the ltusetan troops
employed in the Hungarian war, even those which
occupy Wilds and Trassylvania, are to evacuate the
Austria territory without delay. The news of the
Grand Doke Michael's death has reached its to-day

from Warsaw.
Yesterday, after the reviser, there was a large
dieser-party at the pekoe in Claarlottenburg. M.
de Perogny, the aide-decamp envoy of Louts Na-
poleon, was among the guests.
Tte bill Lir introducing an income-tax into Prussia
be. been completed, and will be laid before the next
mind' of ministers.

AUSTRIA.—Vienna dates are to Sept. 10.
The Wiener Zeitung officially confirms the news
given yesterday of the surrender of Peterwardein, in
the following words :
San Jellschloh assoaccea, on the 6th inst., from Yin-
hones z. thetthefortreee ofPeterwardein surrendered on the

foessoon of this day to the besieging seeps.
The Commandant of the City.
Vienna, Sept. 10, 1849.
4019 esargaig sot yet returned from Dresden, but
is exputed at 15hrenbrunn to-morrow. Comoro seems
prepenng for de-perate defence. We hear, from a
source which has hitherto deserved confidence, that
the garrison amounts to 40,000 men, a number which
otherwise sounds incredible. Klapka had issued a
proclamation earlier, which declared in favour of sur-
render ; but no a sonar was the division which sp-
p ars to have broken out between the Austrian anal
Russian governments known bi the besieged, than
negotiations were broken off. Letters from Bilk) re-
ported that Ocergey. had passed through that town on
the Bth, a notice quite at variance with the report of
his having passed through Vienna, on his way to
Klagenfurt, on the 7th.
The Austrian government has, on the ground of
existing treaties, required Turkey to (spree the
entrance of the Hungarian rebels into her dominions'
and to give up all such as are already there, among',
whom are Dembinski, Kouath, Perezel, and Messina.
Been and Guyon have latterly also taken refuge in the
territory of the Porte, so that all the leading men of
the Magyar revolution are in the hands of the Turks.
Intelligence from Semlin of the sth S' IVAII that the
Russian General Lovcin bad left Belgrade for Turkey
on the 3rd, with the sultan's firmen, to affect the
arrest of Knesuth, Dembinski, and 190 other marked
persons. 650 Honveds, who were brought to Semlis,
although almost in a state of nudity, were in no want
of money, for a Heaved gave 24 imperial ducats foe
Turkish chibuk and mouthpiece.
A letter from Peath, dated the 6th, states that hos-
tilities had probably recommenced at Comoro, as a
heavy cannonade bud been heard in that. direction,
and a number of wounded had arrived from CJmorn.
BAVARIA.—News from Munich to Sept. 10.
The Munich Gazette inserts, in an extraordinary
supplement, the king's speech, with which his majesty I
opened the session of the chambers.
Gentlemen Councillor of the kingdom, and Deputies!
The diet, whieh I open to-day has tasks and duAes to pew
form equally revs as unponant.
A powerful mental movement has since the spring of Wei
year iere:d on the greatest pert of Europe and give anew'
impetus to the public life of the people, not only equally to
Bavaria as ever all Germany. Free developemenz in the
interior and invigoration of the whole fatherland externally
have ben proclaimed by the German princes and peoples as I
the object of their common efforts. I entered upon my
ri ign under the dominance of this mind and spirit; toms's- I
tan it is my firm will.
But impure elements have tai led themselves with this
noble impulse of enthusiasm, sad unfortunately obtained
the preponderance in many ways, even though it be
but transitory. Pinion and the blindness resulting therefrom
have assaulted the immutable bases of social order; they
have sought and striven to pervert to the destruction of the
people what had been commenced for their weal. To meet
such a pernicious outset with a strong hand is the sacred duty
of the government and legislature. Faithful to my con-
viction, that freedom cannot flourish without law and order,
I have endeavoured to perform satisfactorily that duty.
For all the tendencies of our national life the preceding
year has deposited new germs fora rich evolution. It is the
task and province of this diet to free it from every stifling
vied and tare, and, by careful, genial nurture, to enable it
to flourish.
Betsre all things, the German people feels the want of a
new collective constitutionZin whtch it may recognise it elf
as one nation, and make its powers be felt. I share
this feeling, and keep firm to t'm thought, that
the new constitution must embrace all the German races,
in a free organisation, without preference to any one indict
dual member of it, it it be intended that its action should be
ben. final. Difficult as the solution of this eventful task may
be, it will be possible to effect it by the generous devotion of
all. The views very recently laid down for the formation of
a provisional central power, as being of utility u • ally
recognised, I greet j ',gully as the first important and
measured step towards tt.e goal in view.
My government wail forthwith lay before the chambers
the moot complete explanations conesrnieg the present state
of the German constitutional question, and concerning its
conduct r:lstive to the same.
The Bavarian constitution has alrisdy undergone diver,
changes; others are necessary, to the end that Bavarians
may retain their ancient strength and power in this new
age. A revision of the constitution will be placed before
you. It small bring into life the principles defined by the
national assembly as the fundamental rights of the German
people, it shall do this in the sense of the government's pro-
posrions of the 18th of Slay last.
Thom legislative subjects, which had been already in•ro-
dated into the previous chambers, but which I regret to say
remained unsettled, will be submitted to your deliberation.
Others, for instance the bills already announced, will follow.
The plan for civil administratioe, likewise presented to the
last chambers, aid form an impormnt subject of your deli-
berations. Some supplementary parts that have become ne-
cessary by altered circumstances will be laid before you.
It is my will that the whole financial administration of the
state be exposed, without the Last reserve or concealment,
to the representatives of the people, and that: my govern-
ment do direct its whole care to the alleviating of the
I people's burdens by economy and order.
The circumstances of the time have rendered extraor-
dinary outlays uravoidable. Notwithstanding this, only
slight extraordinary aid will have to be invoked.
The joint efforts of the government and the deputies of the
people will succeed in satisfying the wants of the moment,
up bout imposing sew heathens on the tax-payers.
Ia several carts of the kingdom the political movement
has to my great grief lift the path of law and led to crimes.
The legal power has re-established order; justice exercises
her independent office. I know, however, right well bow
to discriminate between the misled seduced and the evil
seducers. You will not refuse as your co-operation, when I
follow the spontaneous impels* of my heart.
Experience of an ennobling character is not wanting to
contrast will thou afflicting scenes. The great majority of
the Bavarian people has proved its devotion to the constitu-
tion, and in my latest excursion the meet beneficial proofs
of loyal attachment and inward affection have been every
where accorded to me, and which I shall treasure up in a
grateful heart.
The welfare of the people is the aim and term of all my
efforts. Let us labour to this end in common, so soon as
order shall have been consolidated in the path of pesos.
Then will the blessings of the Almighty crown our endeauars.

PEACE MEETING AT BATH.—A public meeting
Was held at the Guildhall, Bath, on Thursday evening, for
the purpose of affording the delegates who attended the late
Peace Congress an opportunity of giving some account of

terell—" That In the opinion of this meeting the 'Peace Con-
gress is fitted to inspire the confidence, and is worthy the

clamation. Mr. Alderman Hancock moved: "That this
westing pledges itself to give its aid in carrying out the

pan, the instruction of youth, and such other means as op.
portunity shall afford or occasion require." Mr. S. Bowley

amidst loud cheers. A vote of thanks to the chairman ter-
minated the cmccedinp.
Pan AT BATH.—An dartning fire broke out at
Bath on Thursday night last. About 10 o'clock on that',
evening smoke sad fire WITS observed lining from the
coach manufactory of Mr. Newnham, in Grovisstreet, and it
was soon discovered that the interior of the premises was
in a blase. Ina few minutes the flames were min through-
out every part of the building, aid the conflagration as-
sumed e very serious aspect. Fortunately, however, the i
leveeing was calm, and the fames were maned to the pre-1
