Charles Albert was to have been at Alanandris, at

the hostile forces could not be long delayed. •

ROMAN STATES.—A private, letter of the 4tb
inst. from Rome sap : " The embarrassment of the
treasury does not impede the preparations for war.
W. are more warlike than ever. We have officer,
for 00,000 mm, amongst whom are 14 generals, but
we want men. The Constituent rejected a project of
comeription which would have furnished men. The
sitting of the 20th February at Paris, and the gees-
time of M. Roden Rollin, have for the last two days
served as a theme for comment to the jj rnals and
Globs. A different result was expected. The very

a long prolamation, calling on the people to abstain
from acts of violence, and threatening signal punish-
ment for some murders which, though it states they
are are, have been committed.
TUSCANY.—The Provisional Governmect of Tus-
cany bas published a twig manifesto to Europe, dated
the 4th inst., and signed- by Ouerazzi, Mazzoni, and
Mantanelli, in answer to the protest of the °renal/eke.
The following is a summary of this lengthy document :
" Leopold bad freely accepted the ministerial pro-
gramme, end subsequently, though after some hesita-
tion, signed the bill for the Italian Constitoent Assem-
bly. He afterwards left Florence, without informing
the conceit of ministers of his intention, but merely
commonioatlag it to the Minister of Finance, who
happened to sail at the Pittd Palace the evening before
his departure. The ministry, at hearing the
amours which were spread concerning the intended
flight of the Prince, sent Cher. Onigi. and Chev.
Punszt to Sims, to invite him to return immediately
to Florence, or else to accept the resigration of the
ministry. The two deputies found tee Prince in
bed aed unwell, but be declared his wish to
Mere as soon as to Plonmee, and have the
allealai of his ablest. The remainiag circumstances
are known; Leopold fled meetly from Meng, made*.
plea of his retreat a Keret, nor did he name a INOVi-
nasal government; for bow could he then have re-
commended the country to the care of the ministry?
He then proceeded to Porto San Stefano, and tried to
excite civil war by his letters and orders to Leggier,
and, lastly, left the Tuscan territory. Hence may be
concleded: let, that Leopold of Austria had no reason
of 000sp'aint spinet his ministry ; 2nd, that in virtue
of the constitution he could not leave the country, nor
even establish a provisional government, the more
so as he bad no violence to complain of; 3rd, that
leopold, by ranainirg at Porto San Stefano, intended
re return, not as a constitutional, but es an absolute
strftreign, placing his hopes in the dread which would
seize ttc people, the Assembly. and the ministry, in
civil war and (.reign interventios Bat none of these
calculations were fulfilled. Leopold left Porto San
Stefano, not for the reasons he gives in his protest of
the 20th, but because there was no room for him
them No armed body bad been sent against him, as
he pretends; some municipal guards only were sent
to Grope% to maintain tranquillity there. A repub-
lican government had not been, as be pretends, estab-
lished in Tamany, the republic having merely been
proclaimed by the people as a desire, which would
probably be realised by the representatives of the
By Peolget"
a proclamation addressed to the officers and
soldiers, the provisional government, after severely
censuring the want of dieciplice of the Tuscan troops,
declares that henceforth it shell be rigorously and in-
exorably enforced. By other decrees the punishment
of the gullies is abolished, and imprisonment substi-
tuted instead. The architect Angelo Caprilli is
charged with the fortifications of Lucca and Piroja,
with directions to extend the works along the two
high roads that lead to the latter city. Lucca is for-
tified with a bastioned wall and moat, bat ha. no
outworks.

VENICE.—The Genoa Gazette of the 10th inst.
says: In the Assembly of the 6th a proposition foe
determining the new form of government was taken
into consideration. Deputy Avesani proposed
to ea abolish the dictatorship for an indefi-
nite time, and this, totwithatsndirg it was a
surprise, was taken into consideration. Several
handrid gondoliers and street porters had assembled
without the Assembly, shouting "Long li-e Mania
and the dietatotship;" "Death to Elkton and Bane
vuti." The National Gusrd durst not interfere. and
the Assembly, it timidated, adjourned till 3 o'clock.
The result was not known, but it was thought that
the dictatorship would be re-established.

GERMANY.

PRUSSIA.—Our correspondent writes:
BERLIN, Maim 13.
_ .

The news of Welcher's motion in the Frankfort
Assembly for calling the King of Prussia to the here.
ditary imps vial crown of Germany reached the govern-
ment yesterday, by electric telegraph. The
Conaliguthnelle Zeifeng, Hansemann's paper, pub-
lished last night an extra sheet, announcing
the offer, with the slight addition that it had been
unanimously carried. which have occasion to the
government organs to contradict the report, which,
however, was this morning generall made known to
the public by a supplement to the Moshe Relbfing
Harkort's paper, and the organ of an important section
of the tight.
I new have to announce to you an important sequel
to this newt, which is, that the committee employed
to draw up the address have agreed to introduce into
the address-project a paragraph engaging the King of
Prussia to accept the Kaiser crown in case it should
be offered to him by the Central National Assembly.
The Lefr, with that impracticable wrong-headed con-
sistency with which the democratic party in all constitu-
timed countries st;clis to impossible plans,being resolved
that Germany shall have a republic, will not hear of
the Prussian emperor, mush less the hereditary em-
peror, and oppose the paragraph in question with all
the might. The address-project with this addition
was completed to-day, will be put to-meerow
tuts the hands of members, and the de-
bate will open on Thursday. There was
• die ded superiority of the right in the committee,
who therefore had it all their own way. The left
intend, in revenge, to drew up • separate address.
The discussion in the committee turned upon
fogs points: 1. The king's constitution. 2.
The state of seige. 3. The German question.
4. The Danish question. The great wordy dispute
about the recht&.6eslandigkeii of the constitution was
hotter than ever. The right have agreed to accept
the setroyed charter as fundamental law of the realm,
and the concoction of the first paragraph of the address
to this effect was consigned to Vinci,.
In the composition of the king's speech, an exceed-
ingly happy. breach (for the left) hes. been Lund, on
which they intend to direct their main battery. In
fact, the wits of Manntenfel must have been some-
what blast when he made the king allude
to his promises of Marsh as having been ful-
filled by the giant of December 6. This was
giving away all the advantage of the difference
of position between 1848 and 1849. If he had dwelt
upon this difference, and so excused himself from
carrying out his promises of March, he might
have won very general support from the
moderate patty. Bat thus he hes furnished a
weapon against himself, which will be used without
ceremony. The opposition is at this moment care-
fully picking up all the points in which the king's
promises of March have not been fulfilled, and they
will keep him to that.
In the first chamber there was an animated debate
to-day on the fourth paragraph of the address, which
mace= the state of siege. Six amendments were
preemted, which were all rejected, and the language of
the address preserved. Then sec. 6, referring to the
commercial interests of the state, was taken in hand.
The Minister of Commerce made an important de-
claration, that it was the intention of the government
to support certain lines of railway, among which
be mentioned the " Ost-bahn," or East line,
and the Westphalian line ; and to undertake the
comletion of those that were stopped short for want
of funds." This declaratim came timely, for the
shares of most limes have been-falling dismally.
The Emperor of Russia bad held a review,
at which he addressed his guards in the following
lauguage• " The Emperor of Austria has applied
to me (or military aid. I have determined to comply
with his request. You will form part of the troops
which I am about to send bine"
Only the Pol sh students are to be sent anstries
the university before the 18th of March. The
' will not be impended, as wee reported.
