VIM( oua srmnAL COMMONDINT4

PLORNNCN, Nov. 23,

Since the resignation of Garibaldi has been known
in the army some of its ablest ofileen have resigned
their commissions. The day before yesterday it was
a major, to-day it is Lieutenant-Colonel Bixio who
leaves it. What will become of these patriotic
legions if such an example is followed by others 1
Fend, no doubt, sees the danger of the situation, for
he has already made up his mind to have a complete
change of garrison throughout the whole of the
country. The headquarters of General Rosselli,
which awe September last had been established at
Rimini, are going to be removed to Ravenna. The
26th and 28th Romagna Regiments, together with
the Brigade of Forli, are going to follow them.
Ribotti, who is at Parma, has been ordered to re
place Roseelli, so that Rimini, Ricciano, La Catto.
lice, Montano, Ceeena, Forli, Faensa, and Tinola
will begarrisoned by the less ardent Tuscan divi-
sions. brigade will proceed to Parma,
sad that of Meseecapo will march back
from La Cattails& and Ricciano to Bologna. Such
are the new arrangements made by the General-io-
Chief of the army of Central Italy, and they show
clearly enough that it was of the utmost necessity to
have the Romagnoli removed from the boundary
of the Legations.
Italian people are very fond of writing. Scarcely
a day is allowed to par without the publication of a
new pamphlet, or • new song, cm the political
situation of the moment. Booksellers and printers
are incessantly busy. To-day is the turn of Pro-
fessor Montanelli, the well-known republican
Tuscan leader in 1848. In the pamphlet
he has just published, under the title of
"The Empire, the Pope, and the Democracy
in Italy," the learned professor seems to advocate
for Italy the rather curious solution of • Confedera-
tion, having a constitutional King tor its chief, and
under the nominal presidency of the Pope. His country
would then be united into one political body, for he
takes it for granted that Naples and Sicily would
soon embrace the cause of the unification of the Pe-
clunk. I scarcely need point out the impossibility
of such a scheme, which assumes events which are,
to say the least, far from being accomplished.
Ito,. U.
The intrigues of the Lorraine party have of late
so much annoyed both the pup!. and the govern.
ment of Tuscany that Baron Riossoli has come at
last to a determination to adopt a strong measure
against the chief mover of them at Rome who was
continually provoking some disturbance or other in
this country. Marquis Bugagli, the late eharye
d'afaires of Leopold:at the Vatican, is the gentleman
who undertook to play the pert of a Ducal Catiline,
and prepare the restoration of his dethroned master.
Having declined to acknowledge the new govern-
ment of his country, and having besides kept for
himself some thousands of wadi which belong to the
State, his landed property bas been sequestrated
according to the penalty sanctioned by the
Tolman code against those persons who are
conspiring for the downfall of the established
government. Another decree has been just
published in the MONikre Toseano, in which
flee resignation of Garibaldi is accepted. With
the apparent object of making people believe that
the resignation or the gallant general has been 'pen-
taneons the rulers of Tummy have pared a grand
eulogium upon him, granting to him the right of
wearing the uniform of a Tuscan general, an honour
which, I am pretty sure, the famous leader will
decline. I have been told that, to the great Batista°.
Lion of his friends, this patriotic soldier bas dismissed
the idea of going to the Island of Sardinia, and that
he will stop at Genoa to watch there the forthcoming
political events of his country. A spirited order of
the day has jut been published by General Fanti.
In this document the Commauder-in-Chief of the
army of Central Italy tells his troops to wait pa-
tiently the future events, and urges upon them
the neurally of order and discipline. " Ho-
nour and loyalty," says the general, "must
be our motto. Let those know whose hope is in our
rashness that we are prepared to defend our rights
with calmness and determination." The mutiny
which broke out at Bologna among a battalion of
Garibakli'a troops has no doubt determined Fanti to
address this warning to his army.
Since the treaty of Zurich was signed the extra-
ordinary powers granted to the King of Sardinia
have expired. These seven months have not, how-
ever, been lost by the ministers of Victor Emanuel,
for hey have published a number of laws and regu-
lations which are already bitterly commented upon
' by the liberal pressor Piedmont. The new governors
of the provinces have likewise been chosen. Among
the appointments made I see that the governorship
of Milan has been given to Marquise Pee. de Villa-
marina, who is to be succeeded es Sardinian am-
' busador at the French court by Count Desambrois.
