FLORENCE. Dac. 7, EVENING.
In the Chamber of Deputies to-day various mem-
bers. including Signori Nicreera, Deeanotia, Formes, La-
, ports, and others, expressed the wish t 3 make immediate
interpellations to know what attitude the government in-
tended to assume to maintain the rights and the dignity
of the nation, after the statements that had been made
in the Corps LegialUif by the French government, and
especially by M. Rouber, respecting Italy. General Mena-
bees replied that be bad already telegraphed and written
to the Italian representative at Paris for further explana-
tions on the subject. Until he had received an answer
the government could not make any reply, and he there-
fore requested the members to withhold their interpella.
Mons until Monday next, and then unite them with other
interpellations announced for that day on the foreign
policy of the government. General Mensbres hoped that
' he should then be able to give a reply to their questions.
The members accordingly withheld their interpelLitions.
The nine burs►nx of the Chamber of Deputies have been
constituted. Six of the presidents belong to the moderate
party of the right. The majority of the vice-presidents
and secretaries also belong to the right.
FLORENCE, Deo. 7, 6 me.
In the sittings of the Senate to-day Signor Torrearsa
made an interpellation on the Roman question. He con-
sidered it advisable that under the present grave circum-
stances the Senate should make a declaration. He did not
wish to offer opposition to the government, but he wished
to know the attitude it intended to lIIMMO in this ques-
tion. He put forward the claim to Rome, and said that
under all circumstances the government must maintain
that claim, and the Senate would uphold it. General
Menabres replied that the government had already ex-
pressed its views on the Roman question. By persuasion
and time Italy would be able to obtain the desired end.
He had already stated the difficulties the government
had to contend against, but he bad at the same
time confidence in its ability to overcome them.
General Menahrea concluded as follows :—" Whilst
maintaining our right and respecting religious interests,
our progrmme may be briefly stated as based upon the
necessity fora division of powers, one of which does not
