DEPARTURE OF THE
GRAND DUKE OF TUSCANY
FOR GAETA.

TUSCANY.—Our Paris correspondent informs us
that a telegraphic despatch was reoeived there
last evening, announcing that the Grand Duke of Tue-
can_y had left San Stefano for Gaeta.
The Corriere Mercantile of Genoa, of the 24th ult.,
contains important correspondence from Tuscany,
from which we extract the following particulars: On
the 21st, about 8 p.m.. a great number of fires were
ilremarked on the hills that surround Florence, and
[ several musket-shota were heard. Intelligence soon ar-
rived that reactionary attempts were in progress in
the adjoining country. Immediately the National Guard
assemble! ; the Legion of Lombardy turned °atom well
as the Polish Lora), that had only arrived a few hours
before. Montanelli, though indisposed, immediately
rose front bed, and gave the necessary directions.
Strong parties of soldiery patrolled the town, while
others scoured the country around. Many rioters
were arrested, but it appears that the disturbances
had not risen to the pitch of aggression. A similar
alarm took place precisely at the same time at
Piste* where the yerairole we. beaten and the National
Guard kept under arms for a part of the night. In
maser:pence of these events, the provisional govern-
ment issued a proclamation, addremed to the citizens
of Florence, praising them for their firm attitude in
the prese.noe of dangerous machinations. On the 22nd
a communion of war was named, to judge sum-
marily, by martial-law, all attempts at esdltioo, or
directed against lifo or property, the sentences to be
without appeal, and to be executed within twenty-
four hours. By another decree, all householders of
Florence, who have absented themselves without
plausible reason., are recommended to return within
these days. on pile of being sub' to a daily tax,
according to their condition, ea as their absence
I lasts. On the 22nd many troops poised through
Pisa on their way to Pietro Santa, where General
Laugier had entrenched himself on Mount Chides. At
the moment of going to press, the Corriere Mercantile
announces that an especial courier had just brought
intelligence that General de Laugier had taken refuge
on the' Pisdasootees territory, accompanied by only
thirty men.
The Genoa Gass& pcblishis a proclamation from
Governor Pigli of Leghorn, dated the 23rd ult., con-
=a.letter from ' of the 22nd ult., kat
, near Pietra Santa, in which he gives an ao-1
count of his operations against Gemara Langley. He
determined to attack him on three sides, namely,l
from the sea-side by Via Reggio, from the side of
Monte Chives, and lastly, fries the San Qairico
road, near Camsjore, where General Levier had
placed the plataitpart of his troops, with three
cannon. Guerrazzi directed his men not to load
their arms, and to stick olive-branches into their caps
and muskets ; and, if raistanoe were made, they were
to march forwards and ask whether brethren should
cut each other's throats on account of the treason of
one man. However, before even the troops came in
eight of De Laugier's men, the latter, informed of the
approach of Gen. d'Apre, declared they had no in-
tention of fighting spurt their fellow-citizens, and
retired to Pisan Santa. Gummi and his force en-
tered Camujore et half-past five p.m. in triumph,
amidst the acclamations of the inhabitants.

the inhabitants at Genoa to remain at home, and not
