A DRESS-COAT AND A SMOCK-FROCK WAR.—
.. Nees Ist eine track, oboe Mine kittel romintion"—" This is
• drew-coat and not a smock-frock ravolution," wee the
contemptuous speech of old Marshal Radetekt on the Italian
movement of 180. The Italian war of 18.59, If inevitable.,
will be at core a dnescost end a .mock-frock war. The
letter of our Turin correspondeet gives the names of many
of the Italian noblemen who from the Lomberdo-Venetian
territory, from the serious Mime of Central Italy, from
Naples and Sicily, are Data:dog to serve as
common privates in the Sardinian army. Historic
astio.dationa, not inkrior to thou' clustering round
our own Howard.,or Stanley., or Seymour., me
limited with the names of the Duke Visconti, the
Mame@ Pallevleted. Count Lila, Count Helen, and many
others of the illustrious Italians now enlisted as voluote re.
For the enlightenment of all who believe that an Italian
count must necessarily be a beastly advintruer, trimly
able to prolomg existence on maocaroM end water-melon,
we may state that these nobles have "leads end hawse"—
that they ere the owners of large pcomadone, or princely
fortunes. In the list will be found • neer relative of the
Pope, a nephew of the prime iniaider of Tuscany, severv.
nephew of cardinally, in a word, the ails of the whole Its,
ham aristocracy. So much for the drewesats. Bat the
same-frocks are there too. The peasants are molgratiny,
not degly, het in Gumlike. The scenes of 1843 seem to be
mowed when we read of such an incident es the perish
priest, Olive, abandoning his village, leading forty of his
Sock over the mountains, and bringing them, at his own ex-
press, to enlist is the Sardinian rervice.—Post.
ASYLUM row IDY:rrs.—The twelfth annual
