The Madrid mails of the 24th have arrived. We
give, below, the letter of our own correspondent. It
was expected that M. Salamanca would present to
the Queen, on the evening of the 24th, several de-
crees relative to the finances of the state for signature,
which would appear in the Gazette of the 25th. Pri-
' vete letters say that Mr. Bulwer his returned to
Madrid from La Orsnja ix, consequence of despatches
which had arrived from London, the contents of
which were of pressing importance. It was said in
certain circles in Madrid, according to these letters,
that Lord Palmerston had formed a project for getting
the marriage of the Queen annulled, for changing the
succession through the instrumentality of the Cortes,
and for marrying the Queen to the Count Monte-
molin. All this has been again and again reported at
Madrid, and the present announcement has no better
grounds than former ones. The authors of this gossip
neither kuow nor could have known anything of
the subject of Lord Palmerston'a despatches to Mr.
Bulwer.

It seems tht we 'were right the other day in
conjecturing that the French government must hide
her pacific intelligent* from Austria. That intelli-
gence has now become public, in the shape of an
agreement between the Pope and the Austrian
government respecting , the occupation of Ferrara.
The Pe stipulates that that town shall not have a
national guard, and that its garrison shall consist not
of citizens of the Roman states, bat Swiss. This con-
descension on the part of his Holiness will scarcely
satisfy the Romagneee. ,
The report given by us yesterday of an betook
produced at Leghorn xy the alleged detection of a
reactionary conspiracy there, in which the chiefs
of the police were suppled to be implicated, is con-
firmed. According to the present advice, it appears
that some agents of the police, who were hostile
to reform, and probably instigated by Austrian in-
fluence, having on the night of the 20th attacked a
group of young men ribose liberal opinions were
well known, the population of the city rose and com-
pelled the police to laity the town. After being
farther excited, the people proceeded to arrest a
number of persons charged with being opposed to
reform and progress, to the number of about fifty.
These disorders caused the local authorities to call
out the national guard, mid to issue the proclamation
which we subjoin, and which had the effect of re-
storing tranquillity :
Livernam,—Some alarming reports, disseminated during
the last few days, have created • fear that public security
was about to be disturbed by the plots of conspirators.
These reports have afforded a pretest to some ill-disposed
individuals to commit ads blamable as being arbitrary and
violent, and which would have been attended with serious
consequences but for the intervention of the patrols of the
civic volunteers. To put rtn end to disorder so grave, the
local government, invested with sufficient authority by the
superior government, has resolved to call immediately into
active service the civic read. The command of this body,
under the provisional dumeeion of the Gonfaloniare' is in-
trusted to the cbefs de hataillon Bartolomei and nacho.
All the good citizens of Leghorn are invited to concur and
aid in this duty ' • and the. people are warned that all the
orders which the said civic guard may have occasion to
issue for the re-establihnient of public tranquillity must
be respected and carried taw execution. In tine, to give
complete assurance to the public mind, the governor makes
known that all the persons. most openly accused by the pub-
lic voice have spontaneously surrendered themselves Into
the hands of the authorities, and have been transferred to a
place of security, there to undergo a formal examination,
the result of which the public is desired to wait for to ca
lm-
nem sad confidence. ,
The project of a petition in favour of political re-
form from the Genoese having been submitted to hag
Charles Albert, and not having been approved by him,
the intention of protesting it is abandoned. The
general condition of the people of Italy may be It
ferred from this fact, that in Piedmont, one of the
most liberal states, and that which is among the fore-
most to support the Pope, the people are not even
allowed to lay their cempiaints, remonstrances, or
wishes, at the foot of the throne.
We gave yesterday the substance of intelligence re-
ceived from Naples at Cis date of the 21st inst., pre-
senting a most gloomy picture of the situation of that
part of the peninsula. We have to-day to give a
much more agreeable report, the authenticity of whisk
however, we are not ablate vouch for. It is, however,
credited in respectable quarters, and accepted by one
of the semi-official organs of the French cabinet.
According to this report, the King of Naples has
resolved to grant a ind amnesty to all insurgents
who shall immediately lay down their arms; and, in
order to establish the tranquillity of the kingdom on
a more sure and permanent basis, has determined to
effect in the government numerous administrative
reforms. The minister, Pietro Cstells, is ordered to
prepare a project in accordance with these o.ssigns.
The Cotemporaneo, Roman journal, of, the 18th,
mentions (what we formerly have stated), that au appli-
cation had been made by .the Austrian government to
the Pope, for permission to march trops through the
papal territory, to aid the Neapoldtan government
lo this application, says the Cotenporoneo, his holi-
ness has given a most formal and decided refusal.
Apo ppular movement having been manifested in
Massa Carrara, in the duchy of Modena, a detach-
ment, with two pieces of artillery, was sent there.
When these forces were passing through Reggio (Mo-
dena) they were received with loud marks of dis-
approbation by the people. A council of war was
nominated at Mtesa, to try and execute, within 24
hours, all who should be found in arms. Several
persons had been arrested for crying " Vire Pio IX."
All the people of the neighbouring states of Tusmny,
and the Genoese, who madly frequent the markets,
were stopped on the frontiers.
The national guard has been organised by the
regency in Lucca, on principles showing the utmost
confidence in the people. The regulations are even
more popular than those adopted in Tuscany.
Letters from Parma say that the admission of all
journals whatever is prohibited in that duchy except
the Milan Gazette arid the Journal des Debate.
What ignominy," soya a Leghorn journal, " for that
ment whoee official journal is thus placed on a
par with the Milan Goalie!"
The Nuremberg Ciirrespondent says that on the
14th, when the Pope was inspecting the national
guard posted at the Quirinal, ho addressed them,
exhorting them to wait patiently events, saying thai
