FLORENCE, Fn. 21-

In to-day's sitting of the Chamber of Deputies, I
Signor Minghetti made a speech in which he ex-
pressed his approval of the policy, and financial
proposals of the ministry. He eulogised General
La Marmora's note to the Spanish government, and
ascribed to that power s wish to change the
nature of the September Convention. ' Alluding to
the Roman question Signor MingiLetti said :
"The cabinet to which I belonged constantly
refused to discuss the eventualities which might
arise after the departure of the French troops
from Rome. Italy has only honestly to fulfil
the obligations imposed upon her by the September I
Convention."
Respecting the future composition of the Ponti-
fical army, Signor Mingbetti said :—" After the
declaration recently made by the Imperial govern-
ment to the French Senate, I think the Italian
cabinet should demand to be reassured against any
intervention on the part of France in Rome.
France should also be required to declare that the
presence, in the States of the Church, of individual
French subjects does not imply the presence of the

THE C♦BMEN's STRIKE ♦T N♦rraB.—Letters from
Naples explain the cause of the cabmen's strike ,
there. The men are, for the meet part, owners of ,
the vehicles they drive, yet an very poor, and are accus-
tomed to dram in a manner that is perhaps picturesque,
but searady decent. With a view to improve their appear-
ance, the municipality decided that each cabman should be
provided with a uniform suit, the east of which be was to
repay by instalments of a ducat a month. To this the
see demurred on the ground of their poverty. They were
already saddled with m many burdens ►s they could bear,
they said, and bad the greatest difficulty in making two
ends meet. The municipality would not yield, however,
and the cabmen accordingly struck. When this
became known, it war thought necessary to place
the omnibuses under the protection of the pollee,
lest these vehicles should be interfered with. This pre-
caution had at first the desired effect, but disorders have
since taken place. An omnibus arriving from Faris
has been attacked, the police who accompanied it, and those
who went to their assist►nce, were smiled ; flee or six of
them were stabbed, and now lie in a dangerous state at the
harpiteL Several persons too were wounded in the crowd.
It was not until some soldiers and National Guards arrived
on the scene and fired over the heads of the people that the
disorders ceased. The latest letters from Naples are to the
15th, and at that date the strike still continued. A
number of the cabmen had been arrested ; others were
assembling in numerous groups, and appeared in a state of
exasperation. The municipality were being urged to keep
, firm to the conditions they h►d laid down, so that there
I wee no prospect of the immediate termination of the
