TURIN, Aram 16.
Though all here are in a condition of extreme
t:trand agitation, public order has not been dis-
ill the slightest degree, and we at least enjoy
the quiet of ordinary and regular times. A tew
journals speak of grave differences between Count
Cavour and General La Marmots, but I ant able to
assure Tou that their statement is not true. The
accusations also that have been levelled against that
military officer of want of activity and skill in his
conduct of preparations for the field are equally
baseless. Many of these preparations, it Is true, have
been retarded by the immense difficulty of obtaining
cloth, leather, orses and the like ; every govern-
ment wants them for home use, and our contractors
. .

bare acoordingly preferred forfeiting their deposits
toruining themselves by actually supplying the articles
required. It must be confessed that Austria appears to
have been more provident, for at this moment all her
armaments are thoroughly and efficiently completed.
Pavia has been changed into a stronghold of no mean
pretensions, and holds a garrison stronger than it
really requires. And it is to be observed that all
her new fortifications are contrived to resist not only
her enemies without, bat the citizens within. The
Archduke Maximilian has been suddenly summoned
to Vienna, and a variety of conjectures are afloat
respecting the object of so sudden an event. Does
it mean instant war P Do they intend leaving Lom-
bardo-Venetia entirely in the hands of the military
authorities? Or has the Prince been called to
discuss with his brother the Emperor and the Aulic
Council some new system of government for the
Italian provinces?
In the two &whim, in Tusceny and the Ro-
magna', the administrations no longer possess any
energy, and the only reason why anarchy does not
gain the ascendant is that the people now obey with
strict discipline their liberal chiefs. These feel it
their solemn duty to preserve order and not to mar by
excesses the progress of the national cause. At
Parma there is a committee for Galati:4 volunteers
to emigrate from their own duchy, or from
Modena and the Romagna,. It spends about two
thousand francs a day ; and a large sum it is for so
small a oounbry. They have struck a medal there
in honour of Victor Emmanuel, and it bean this
inscription: "The inhabitant& of Parma, in warm-
ing the wish of 1848." Yon remember that the wish
in question wu to be united with Piedmont, so as
to form one state. To-morrow (Sunday) we ex-
pect the arrival here, from the Duchy of Carrara,
of a petition, or rather a declaration, signed
by the people es mane, to the effect that they
ale* wish to form a part of Piedmont, and
that they do not mean to pay taxes any
longer to the Dake of Modena. In the Romagna,
the volunteers are leaving by hundreds ; the inhabi-
tants of the towns accompany them with bands of
music and cheers, and the waving of tricolour ban-
ners- All this must prove to the world the possibi-
lity of withdrawing the foreign troops from the ,
Pontifical State.. As soon as these volunteers arrive
in Tuscany, without passports, of coarse, each man
is furnished with a ticket, signed by the Piedmontese
minister, Cavaliers Boncompagni, and so they reach
Leghorn, where they embark. At this same seaport
seven hundred Tuscan volunteers have been
lrat on board by Vincenzo Malenchini, who
ooks well to their comforts; and the expense
of their passage is to be defrayed by the
municipality. The government sees all this, and
keeps silent. The correspondent of a celebrated
contemporary of yours backs Austria's assertion that
all this has been brought about by Piedmontese
management, and that Count flavour is playing
the game of the revolutionary party. We laugh at
these somewhat clumsy falsehoods. The Sardinian
government is itself amazed at the efflux of volun-
teers, who by the end of the month will very possi-
bly amount to twenty thousand. The were so little
expected that it causes no slight em ent to
arm and clothe them. Piedmont and Cavour are
revolutionary alone in this, that for ten long years
they bays talked of Italy', slavery, and of the neces-
sity of remedying her state of suffering.
