THE ITALIAN QUESTION AT THE

CONGRESS.

The Droste, in the souse at a Mg article upon
the Italian question, takes upon itself to affirm that
the members of the Congress are almost agreed upon
• series of propositions, which may be summed up
in the following terms:
Imps is sot indiffereat to the saisfsetmes of Italy.

After giving an extract from this memorandum,
and observing that since 1831 the cabinets of Pads
and Landes have frequently urged upon the gout&
meets of Italy the necessity of entering upon a coon'
of reform, the Dilxsts proceeds to nay that the Coi-
gnes, although nearly agreed apse all the above
points, was divided upon others of great importance.

Estop is to interfere in Italy, and even whether the
Congress is empstent to amidst the matter, are
questions upon which, according to the Dibals, the
plenipotentiaries are all at sea.
The Prism says it is true that Count Came did
lay before the Comoros, a memarsodues on the Italian
question, but that the memorandum did not emanate
from the Sardinian Goverment. It was merely an
analysis of the views of certain eminent Italians
which H. Cavour submitted to the Conran as a fait

Oar Paris correspondent says :—" I take it to be
quits oartain, amidst all the =sanity masigned by
multifarious rumours, that this Conran will do
nothing whatever for Italy."
