LATEI INTELLIGENCE.

CHB ITALIAN QIIRISTION.—THE NEObTIA•

?lONS END ARMAMENTS.

The Nord, of this morning, hu some further
comments upon the program of the negotiations.
Ws read:

" The slight Melioration ♦hich ws were so
happy to be able yesterday to note, has become
known at Paris in certain political circles, and at
the Bourse, and has given rise to a
crowd of rumours which the Pays echoes
in stating that the whole face of things is
changed, sad that all difficulties have disappeared.
Unhappily our own accounts do not permit us to
give way to inch a hope. The Paris corn-
spondsnt who sent us the fact of the amelioration
referred to, urged us not to exaggerate its import-
ance, and today he affirms that there is absolutely
nothing that authorises us to believe in real change.
Austria, it is true, renounces an inadmissible
condition which she had put upon her participation
in the congress, bat she refuses to mode to the de,
mend of the mediatieg powers to establish before-
and during the negotiation, a zone of neutralised
territory between the two armies ;moreover, she

has proioundednew conditions—oonditions which are
this moment the subject of negotiation, and which
relate probably to the enrolment of Italian volun-
teers, and to the simultaneous and general disarming.
On the part of the cabinet of Vienna, which has
repelled with such haughtiness all that had the
appearance of a concession—this proposition seems
to indicate a return to more moderate Ideas.
But that Is all, and it would be a mistake, we be-
lieve, to soy in It a (pledge of that happy solution
which pablio opinion, too ready to encourage Blu-
shes, prematurely regards as a fait accompli. For
oareelves, who observe the maroh of events with
twig 'sad and without bias—the situation appears
to us in a less satisfactory light. A step has beea
taken, ft is true, but how many such steps have
we not had to record since the origin of the conflict P
And meanwhile the crisis has arrived at an extre-
mity at which a solution by war or by diplomacy
has become an urgent and imperious necessity."
The Paris correspondent of the Post (second
edition) writes :—The "latest intelligence I get about
the congress meeting comes to this The great
powers have concluded that it would be advisable to
get the plenipotentiaries of the great powers together
MI soon as possible, and then talk about di arming.
Austria is expected to agree to this suggestion. M.
Massimo d'Aseglio, charged with a special mission
to the governments of Franco and England, will
probably reach Paris to-morrow morning. He will
no doubt point oat to the great powers the neces-
sity of Piedmont remaining armed until the congress
is assured of the good faith of Austria."

Advice* have been received by Mr. Renter from
Milan to the 11th inst. The official Milan Gazette
ascribes a peaceful meaning to the article on exist-
ing relations between Franc* and Oermany, pub-
lished in the Moniteur of Sunday last, the 10th
instant.

A telegram from Turin, dated Monday, says :
" Military stores are embarked unceuingly night
and day at Trieste : even Beats' days are not al-
lowed to interfere with the operations. Shells,oannon
shot, biscuits, brandy, flour, oats, wood for the con-
struction of pontoons, palisades, barriers ; in a word,
the whole of the shore in the vicinity of the railway
has been appropriated by the government. The
steam mills of Trieste, of Duino, and of Fiume are
set to work to grind the corn destined for the use
of the troops, to the total exclusion of private
stores."

The following letter his been received In Path
from Munich, dated yesterday :

brereased to their full complement of man. By this mea-
sure the entire Bavarian army win be placed on the war
