♦ latter from Turin, dated Sunday, says :
" What is all this crowd ?' said I this morning to
am of a group of smart-looking yoang men, from
twenty to twenty-two years of age. 'We us
Lombards,' was the answer. I bead that they
I were young men of good family, who had
moos to Turin to take out their permit to enlist In the
Ilardbdaa =ay. Same of theca, I have since heard,
are destined for cavalry regiments and Mhos far the
rinse (borsoffiers). I met today in the streets M.
Solara, a Milan priest, who heariag that the polies
were going to erred him, made his escape three
days ago. Volunteers from ell parts of Lombardy
are arriving. The Minister at War is very parti-
cular in his selection ; but notwithstanding the
deist conditions which he imposes and the risk of
pawing the frootiere, their numbers increase daily.
At Leghorn, on the Tuscan frontier, and in the
duchies special measures have been taken to prevent
this patriotic emigration, bat the Italian youth
barns to measure swords with the Austrian, and all
the parasitises of the authorities are constantly
evaded. Parente exhort their children to enlist.
' Viva ' is the universal cry."

AUSTRIAN ITALY.

Ina latter from Milan, dated Woodsy, we read :

" War ! war ! Such is theory whioli throughout
the country greets the French Emperor's speech.
His complete adhesion to the policy of Sardinia
leaves so doubt whatever as to the ism of the
present oriole. Thorn who look far ahead, however,
think that the war will sot begirt for a month or
two. Bat the general opinion is that the time is
at hand. The rumours which circulate in all
direction, and agitate even the lowest dregs of the
populace, the emissaries who roam about the coun-
try, the recruits who continually cross over to
Piedmont with trusty guides and money—all these
symptoms had to the belief that events cannot long
be retarded. It is a common saying, and almost
a tree see, that the Lombardi= levies
of this year are raised at Novara. Woe
to him who might due to express the slightest
doubt of the proximate conquest of Lombardy by
Piedmont! Meanwhile this country suffers more
than I can tell you. Trade is absolutely suspended ;
the mieseisetarers are doing no work, and are die-

'barring their nen ; 200 sugar redeem and 230
cigar melees have just been turned adrift,—end so
it is with other trades. The street' us crowded
with ENS oat of work. The public funds and rail-
way shuts continue to fall. As to the booksellers,
they art publishing nothing.

"Yoe will remlt ber that last year ewes students
of Pavia were prosecuted for celebrating a mar in
memory of Oreini. The tribunal of first instance
let them off considering their act se simply a fit of
claasical enthusiasm for a new Brutes or Meese
&creole, bat the Supreme Tribunal has revived the
I oar, and it will be heard next week.
"Omura dinky has gone to review the troops
stationed at Farrar,, Bologna, &a He will after-
wards establidt his head-quarter, at Verona, where
they were baste the rumour, of war. This is •
satistectiou given to the archduke. The
latter is still here, but he will soon join the arch-
dashing at Venice, where be will pass the Carnival.
Defensive preparations are making from Chioggia
to Lido. Fear new barracks will be built at Bron-
dolo, Malanwooo, Lido, and Chioggia. These symp-
toms show that an attack by sea is expected. At
Milan, notwithataading all the aexiety sad distress,
the Carnival is very gay. The theatres are
crowded. The public take this way of manifesting
their hopes."
