The Constituents Italian° of the 22ndult. says, news
reeeh ed from Bologna by private sources, state
that at Puma and Piacenza they expected
every moment • general attack of the Piedmontese
troops on the frontier of the duchies. Letters from
Muss-Carrara also announce that the Piedmontese
had arrived in that town, with the intention of
marching immediately, by the road of Paulo or Mo-
dens,
or by Castel-Nuevo de Monti, on Reggie.
TUSCANY.—The (Wrier* Mercantile of GONG, of
the 26th ult, publishes a document from General de
Langier, dated Mum, 22nd ult., in which the genteel
states that be learnt the departure of the Grand Duke
from Florence on the 9th nit, sad read in the
Monitore that the Grand Duke had never intended to
leave Teessny t aPd that the provisional government
hid absolved the troops from their oath. That
the general then demanded his discharge,
which being refused, he repeated his demand. That
the provisional government having directed him to
make the troops take a new bath, they had refuted,
and even mutinied; and that it wasafterwards agreed
that a declaration should be published in the Monitore
to the effect that the troops would accede to the oath,
provided his highness had not answered within
eight days. That the general received a letter from
the Grand Duke, dated the 17th, directing him
(Laugier) to assume the supreme command of the
taeops, and take every step to maintain constitutional
nuereigaty, promising, on the other hand, the mist-
ime of Piedmont. That the general, in obedience to
these orders, was proceeding towards Lucca when he
waived a sew dispatch from the Grand Duke, on the
UM, announcing to him his departure for Gaeta,
naming him (De Laugier) his oommimery in
Timmy ; but, at the same time.
war. That the ure
recommend-
rt4art lag him to avoid civil
ofthe grand duke had removed every r e from
the mind of the general, who at once to the
positioa le had occupied on the 21st. That the cora-
MOM of Muss, having invited the governor, Count
del Males, to effect a mediation between the army
oommanded by General de Laugier and the goveri-
nest, the general and his army and the governor did
sot hesitate to accept, on account of their being ab-
solved from their oaths. That the general asks no-
thing for himself but his discharge and the main-
tenance of his grade and title. That, lastly, daring
the negotiation the line between the two armies
is lsed at Porta fer the army of General de
Leggier, and at Pietra Santa for the opposite
home. Next follows a despatch from Oneruzi,
dated Pietraaanta, 23rd ult., in which he states that
Via Reggio has been occupied by the column under
Major Otiarduci ; that on the morning of the above
date he (Onerruzi) had marched from Camelot* to
Pistreaants with General d'Apioe, and that informs-
ties had reached him that General de Laugier had
spliced the cannon at Puts, disbanded his men, and
bd. The despatch then mentions the arrival of a
imputation from Males, with the capitulation of which
we have given an extract above, and states that he
(Gticerazri) bad promised fall pardon to all but Count
a. Limier, whom he would try by. court martial,
where he to fall into his hands. No mWllgraaa has
arrived concerning the Piedmontese; he (
on his arrival at Mum, would enter into oommimies-
don with the Piedmeatees general, to agree with him
lon the measures to be taken against the Austrians.
The Pensiero Italian of Genoa, of the 28th ult.,
publishes a letter from Massa, of the 23rd, stabeg
that the country was greatly agitated ; that the era
levy train, composed of twenty-two pieces of cannon,
had returned there, and that the people had declared
they would not let them go away. The artillerymen
had then removed the horses, which were taken care
of by the people. The soldiers disbanded, some
taking the road to Tuscany, others to the mountains.
Lanier sallied forth from the palace, sword in hand,
at the head of an escort of dragoons, exclaiming :
" Follow me, brave solders ! I have the money ; come
and join me at Foedinove ! " Upon which the whole
party took the direction of Fosdinovo. The British
00. -gun ship Vengeance had arrived at Leghorn on
the 20th ult.

the sitting of the Senate of Turin
of the 26th ult., the Minister Cadorna replied to the in-
tellations put to the ministry, confirming fully the
declaration made by the 0111111h7 on its advent to
power with Gioberti. The government of the king
would not prejudge the question of the central
Italian republic before the Chamber had decided on it,
but it always had the intention of ving its wins' tance
to every Italian nation, that this was to
conciliate the interests Qs country and the king.
The government would continue in this reserve, be-
cause above all things it desired war with Austria.
After this and some similar esplanades@ from the
other ministers, the Chamber pissed to the order of
the day, being in effect a vote of confidence in the
ministry.
With regard to Sicily, oar correspondent, on the
21st ult., says : The negotiations remain as they did.
Every demand, as far as I can understand, has been
granted by his Majesty, even the vezata.ruestio of
army, on condition however that the appointment of
officers (being Sicilian) rest with him. An aide-de-
camp of Admiral Bandin has been sent off with the
ultimatum. lam told that his return is expeetd
immediately.
It appears, however, that later the expectation of a
settlement was disappointed. A difference arose be-
tween the Neapolitan government and the represen-
tatives of Prance and England, which appeared
nearly ineooncileable. The government insisted, se
a sine gad non, that the forts of Palermo should be oo•
espied by Neapolitan trcol. To this the mediating
tatives positively o sated.
representatives positively objected.
Long ccnfursncss were he d at the British Legation,
which were attended by Mr. Temple, M. de Rayne-
voile, and Admirals Bandin and Perim%
Protracted cabinet councils were held at the palace,
which were reported to be of a stormy nature, and it
was said that a modification of the ministry was
imminent. Nothing definite, however, bad transpired.
The British war steamer Bulldog had arrived
at Gaeta, with the Grand Duke of Tuscany and
his family on board, from Ban Stefano. The Grand
Duke war hourly expected at Naples.
A great movement of Neapolitan troops had taken
place towards the papal frontier, consisting of infantry,
cavalry, and utility.

GERMANY.

PRUSSIA.—Oar correspondent writes, tinder date
of Berlin March 2 :

As I tad you Yesterday, the Minister of Commerce,
Vat der Heydt, at the claw of the sitting, imputed to
the second chamber • eommunication from the Danish
government,_glyiag mike of the termination of the
armistice of Mime en the 26th of March, Denmark

pose. upon the Schleswig liberals the same military
straight-jacket which is now keeping in order their
political co-reliFionaries in Berlin. If this be true,
which seems highly probable, the Minister of Com-
merce must have chuckled inwardly at the applause
which followed his spirited flourish about maintaining
the honour of the country and so forth.
You will have learned from Frankfort that, in the
event of hostilities breaking out, the central govern-
ment propose seeding to Schlf swig-Holstein an army
composed of troops of the smaller German states,
while a Prussian corps of 20,000 would be posted on
the confines of Mecklenburg, with head-quarters at
Perleberg.
The Staats-Anzeiger contains the announcement of
the Minister of C mamerce to the merchants of the li
Baltic Ports of the Danish notification of the cessation
of the armistice of I.llalmoe. The Danish note is dated
the 23rd nit, and was delivered (according to the
official report) to the Prussian government on the
26th, late enough, probabl, to excuse it from appear-
ing in the king's speech of; the same day.
Four new members for the second chamber were
elected yesterday to represent the first, third, and
fourth electoral districts in the place of Rodbertus,
Waldeck, Jacobi, and Temme, who have declared far
other constituencies. The deputies chosen were all
members of the Constituent Assembly. The Minister
of Justice, Rintelee, is returned, by an after-election,
..o the first chamber for Coealin ; so that all the mem-
bers of the minibtry are now elected either for the
first or second chamber.

The sections of the second chamber met yesterday
morning, and appointed a committee to draw ap re-
gulations. They then proceeded to the examination
of elections. The opposition candidate for the presi-
dency of the chamber will be Unruh. The right and
right centre expect to get a majority of between 10
and 20 in favour of Grabow. The opposition have
decided to hold meetings in their club, the Conversa-
tion, Halle, three times a week, to which the public
will be admitted.

The first chamber is said to be exhibiting more libe-
ral tendencies than were at first expected; and a
strong centre-left will be certainly formed ; on the
other hand the decided left does not count above
seven members.

There will be in all probability greet difficulty in
Aiming a strong centre in the second chamber, where
the extreme state of irritation between the opposite
sides of the house burst into a flame at the first sittieg.
There is, however, a strong p,rty on the right, who
see decidedly anti-ministerial At present some well-
intentioned men are seeking to produce a conciliatory
feeling between these moderate conservatives and the
more dispassionate members of the left. The preten-
sion of the right to impose at the first Bitting regu-
lations upon the house which the left had not seen,
has been generally censured as arrogant and
injudicious. The opening speech of the president,
(Page, was stamped with a servile bigotry that pro-
duced extreme irritation among the liberals, from
whom it called forth fierce and indignant retorts,
which again lit up a spirit of animosity among the
conservatives; so that the most aged man in the As-
sembly showed the least sense, and made himself a
firebrand in the assembly which it was his function
to pacify. The first great difference of opinion be-
tween the liberals and conservatives regards the order
of the two great propositions which lie before the
Assembly. The liberals say, "First revise the consti-
tution, and then accept" The conservatives insist
upon the acceptance first and the revision after. The
latter add, "Why, you have already accepted the
king's constitution, because you acknowledge
.your-
selves elected as reprerentatives by its provisions,"
a mere sophism, because the chambers are unques-
tionably the least objectionable, if not the only, field
of battle upon which the democratic party can meet
the king's advisers.
The Berlinische Nachriaten has reasons for be-
lieving that ministers contemplate a mitigation (if
not suspension) of the state of siege, of which one
feature will consist in removing the restraints that
fetter the press.
The war minister had called upon the magistrate to
make good 200,000 cartridges which, on the insurrec-
tion of the workmen on the 16th of October, were
distributed to the Burger-wehr. The ammunition
costieg ten thalers a thousand, the magistrate had de-
termined to make the compensation good in kind, by
restoring es many of the cartridges as have not been
shot off.
There was agitated yesterday in the town council
a matter which excited some interest. It seems the
householders have been called on to pay 49,000
thalers for the burning of the Arsenal Iron Foundry,
ca the night of the 19th of March. The deputation
presented its report, which assigned the quota to each
householder, and the magistrate's substitute declared
the magistrate to agree with the deputation. A Dr.
Kuhtz proved, however, that the loss by fire was the
fault of the executive, who had not been able or
willing to let the engines repair to the spot for its ex-
tinction. Thereupon it was decided that an address
should be presented to the magistrate, calling upon
him to exert himself to get this burden shifted from
the householders to the treasury.
It is said that Saxony, in apprehension, has been
bargaining with a great military power (but not with
Prussia) for troops in case of need.
' The retirement of Kuhns from the finance depart-
ment, in which talents of no common order and much
experience rendered his services extremely valuable,
is regarded not only as a great loss for the ministry,
but as ominous of its short duration. The motives of
Kuhne in resigning his
.place (he was charged with
the finance =nutty ad interim) are variously !epre-
' sainted, some asserting that the ministerial project of
law affecting the Gewerbefreiheit, and fettering the
independence of the tradespeople in the adoption or
change of their calling!, was strongly opposed by
him, his declared principles haying beta always in
contradictioni with such shackles; and others, that he
shrank from a participation in the responsibility of the
ministers for their arbitrary acts. Graf von
the new Minister of Foreign Affairs, is the diploma-
tist of that name (the commonness of which here ren-
ders confusion easy), who was recently Prussian envoy
to the court of Vienna.
The king's aide-de-camp, Count Brnbl, has been
despatched to Olmutz, upon a mission respecting the
union.
G. wan king, after opening the chambers, on the 26th
ult., went to Tegel, to offer his congratulations in
person to Gen. von Hedemann, son-in-law of William
von Humboldt, upon the completion of his 60th year of
service, celebrated by a jubilee.
The deputies of the left of the second chamber,
having first pitched upon Unruh for their candidate
for the presidentship, and a good part of them next
upon Orabow, are now casting about for a third can-
didate. They have shifted the place of their eneetings
from Jaraschowites to the Conversations-hall in the
Doohefs-Platz, next door to the chamber. The right
meet just opposite at the London Tavern. The first
chamber herd its councils, hitherto undivided, at
Mielentz's; but a split occurred the night before last
on the subject of the absolute veto, which will lead to
the formation of a left party, probably under the lead
at Saucken Tarputachen, one of the opposition mem-
bers of the diet. The right acknowledge for their
chief Professor Stahl.
The railway share market was somewhat depressed
yesterda , in consequence of the news of the Danish
of the termination of the armistice. But
the explanations given in the chamber by the minister
of mamma produced a favourable reaction.
An address to the magistrate against the reorgani-
sation of the Bargbar-wehr, complaining of the in-
compatibility of the duty thereby imposed on a citizen
with his commercial occupations, is going the round
of the tradespeople for signatures.

that day's fitting of the National Assembly the

15th, 16th, and 17th sections of the electoral law
were voted. Those sections declare that no imbed-
totes for deputies are to be elected; that the elections
are to be on one and the same day throughout the
empire, and that the electoral district. are to be fixed
by the separate states, except when they are other-
wise determined by the central laws. The entire
electoral law was then voted by a majority of 256 to
194. The Assembly also resolved, by a large majority,
to defer fora week or ten day' the second reading of
the project of constitution for Germany, chiefly in
order to afford Austria further time for consideration.
In the Bavarian note to the antral ministry,more
objections &ft started against the proposed constitu-
tion than were set forth even in the Saxon note.
The Bavarian government also claim the right of
approving or disapproving of that constitution, and of
deciding whether it be a proper one for the kingdom.
They declare, moreover, against the election of a
single bead of the empire, and in favour of a directory
without a council of the empire. In other respects
the Bavarian government appear desirous of re-es-
tablishing to a great extent the old Germanic con-
federation.

AUSTRIA.—Oar intelligence from Vienna is to
the 28th ult. The good people of Janobitz, in Styria,
are determined to have, so far as rank is concerned
,
illustrious representatives in the Frankfort National
Assembly, having elected the Emperor Ferdinand,
with the Archduke John of Austria as his substitute.
This reminds one of the ultra biTalty of a rural elec-
toral district in Pomerania (which by the by is the
Bcetia of Prussia), the inhabitants of which persisted
in returning the King of Prussia se their deput7 to
the second chamber in Berlin. Thousands of families
have been rained by the recent proclamation of Win-
dischgrate, declaring Hungarian bank notes worthless.
Not longer than a month ago, ho announced that all
such notes of the value of one florin or two florins
would be received in payment at all the public es-
tablishments. The consequence of this declaration
was, that all notes of that value were freely taken in
the way of business.
It is officially stated in the Siebenburgen Messenger
that on the 11th ult., the imperialists, daring a contest
near Deva, lost 300 in killed and wounded. The
battle lasted from 8 a.m. till 6 p.m., and ended in the
retreat of the imperial troops. The town of Gyongyos
has been fined 60,000 florins for aiding in, or conniving
at, the capture of CoL Count Montecuculi ; and the
Jewish community in Pesth 40,000 florins, in conse-
quence of two Jews having been convicted of carrying
on communications with the Hungarians. This is not
a bad way to raise supplies.
It is believed in Vienna that a serious misunder-
standing exists between Windischgratz and Jellaehich,
with reference to the plans of the former for the poli-
tical re-organisation of Hungary.
The constitution committee of the Kremaier Dist
had already drawn up, but not yet published, the pro-
ject of constitution for Austria. It was thought that
it would be laid before the Diet cc the 28th ult. Ac-
cording to the Oat-Deutsche Post of Vienna, the go-
vernment have expressed the desire that the Diet
should accept the project as drawn up by the com-
mittee, in order that an amnesty may be proclaimed,
and the young emporor be enabled to take up his re-
sidence in the capital.
In consequence of some serious disturbances having
occurred on the 26th alt. in Cracow, the authorities
have appointed a committee of safety.
The King of Hanover has forwarded the order of
the Guelphs to Jellachich.
