TURUC, OCT. 14.

An incident which has calmed some surprise hers
is the departure of the Minister of Foreign Affairs
Mr Pans. Some persona seek to explain it by refer-
wee to the Farms affair, and say that it is intended
to remove an indignation, more natural than just,
which hu arisen in the mind of the Emperor of the
French thereat. Mesawhile, our ministry are
anweariedly occupied with the new electoral law,
the commission for which is prided ever by
Coast Caveat. Information whit* I believe to be
correct leads me to believe that it will be is • re-
strictive direction. Is this also In eseseqesecie oldie
counsels of a friend? The Minister Rattesci, who
represents in the cabinet the liberal and progressive
party, certainly cannot like to restrict the liberties
of the country. The electoral law is, ea everybody
knows, the keystone of the constitutional system,
and at this moment, when everybody is apprehensive
doming in the Chamber a party that does not express
the wishes of the country, the electoral law ought
rather to be enlarged. The new elections will con-
firm the fears of the radical party.
The business of the armament gets on slowly, but
it does get on, or at least so we are assured. The
anticipation of a future contingency which may not
be fax distant ought to guide the steps of our War
Minister. In the I)uchies, the immediate com-
mencement of hostilities is believed in. It would
appear that the attack may be made from two
Bides simultaneously. A battalion of the National
Guard of Modena and Reggio was destined to re-
lieve the 'rumen garrison occupying the forts and
military positions of Bremen*. The Modems(' con-
tingent was ready within leo dna twenty hours.
The &Nardi, Moods departed this morning amidst
ea applauding multitude, and with shoats of " Viva
'ltalia! Viva Her'

The idea that the Prince of Savoy Carignan may
be sent as regent to Central Italy continues to have
some probability of becoming a fact. It seems,
however, that the government will tint await the
solution of the Conferences at Zurich.

The Empress Dowager of Ramie is to arrive at
Arona this evening. The Prince of Carignan has
gone there to meet her. To-morrow she will go to
Genoa. and the King, accompanied by the Minister
of the Interior, will also go there to-morrow.
I am jest at this moment informed that the com-
mission charged with the reform of the electoral law
have adopted the basis of one deputy for every 30.000
of the population.

In order to explain the necessity of the last trans-
lated ordinance I must tell you that after the occur-
rence of Colonel Aurae, aseacematioa a lot of
fellows, who were suspected of being sup.
porters of the late government, began to abuse the
means of publicity, by declarations which were not
only an infringement of tie existing law but
amounted to a public nuisance, and which might
have had very bad come-minces in the future. 8o
great is the hatred felt by the people of these pro-
TWO!" against the ducal government that they think
themselves surrounded by a host of its secret agents.
It happens sometimes tact a man is suspected of
being one of them. As soon as he is made aware of
the fact he hasten* to stick upon the walls of the
town his defence, proclaiming his devotion to the
newly-established government. Dictator Parini,
who has to deal wi•h two or three hundred ruffians,
who are the warp of this city, has wisely
decided to put a stop to such proceedings of public
denunciation and defence. Honest citizens who
witness the determination of the Dictator begin to
breathe more freely ; civic courage makes itself
more manifest every day, and public confidence is
already restored in the city. As I told you in my
former letters, it was the moral degradation of the
mob, an evil of long standing, that was the cause of
such deplorable fear being exhibited by the educated
class of this community. The treats of a few ruf-
fians had reduced Parma to such a hopeless condition
under the late Ducal Government that even judges
were then not courageous enough to enforce the laws
of the country against the well-known authors of
crimes which were attempted or executed in the
broad light of the day. Thin shameful disregard of
duty on the part of the criminal courts had already
been made manifest in the trials of 1833, during
which, in spite of legal proofs, the authors of de-
testable crimes escaped the penalties of the
law. The onsets ordered by the Dictator,
which were continued with boldness due.
log last night, and the dismissal of the
Solicitor-General, which will be made public to-
morrow, have so tar changed the fealieg of the
honest population that there is no doubt the instiga-
tors of Count Anviti'a assassination will i• a low
days expiate the horrible crime with whisk they
are charged. One of the first results of Cavaliers
Felines proceedings has been that of putting an sad
to the apathy of the town council authorities, who
are now discussing an address of thanks, which will
