PRUSSIA.

Advice, from Berlin state that the Promian go-
vernment intends demanding from the Chamber a
credit of 12 millions of thalers, fur increasing the
navy and improving the defences of the °oasts of the
Baltic and of the North Bea.

The Prussian ministry had carried to the budget
of 1339 and appropriated to different extraordinary
expenses the surplus of 1,300,000 dialers resulting
from former years. The first Chamber lately de-
cided that the government ahould cause these sums
to be returned to the treasury, in order to form a
mere' for the eventualities of war. The second
Chamber paid no attention to the decision of the
upper one, but approved by an order of the day
amtirl the measures which bad been adopted by the
government in the interest of the public terries. A
letter from Berlin, in reference to this matter, says:

The ditaatisfection which the Prince Regent feels spinet
the Chamber of Nobles wee manifested on the enniversary
of his birthday. His royal highness received with marked
oordlality the depilation of the Chamber of Deputies which
went to °migrants** him, and eapremid his thanks to the
Chamber for having voted onanboonely end without diecns-
sacs the bill for increasing; the civil list. The prince, on
the contrsry, received with great coldness the deputation of
the Chamber of Nobles. His royal highness Is greatly
ofkeded at the vote which that Chamber gave on the em-
ployment of the exam of receipts especially am ho had pre-
viously made known his personal opinions on the goestion
to Dome of the opposition members.

SARDINIA.

TURIN, NA ace 26.

I send you some items of news that you may rely
upon. Sardinia will be admitted into the Congress;
Austria's consent is all that is wanting. She pro-
poses a supplementary copper of Italian pricers at
Rome, whence they may send an invitation to the
Congress of the Fire Powers. So secure does Austria
feel as to their votes, that in her opinion one invited
power will serve to represent them all. I forgot to
say that Vienna desires Piedmont to be ex
chided from this Roman congress. The acceptance
by Austria to take part in the congress proposed
by Russia may be said to be conditional, as she only
intends to treat and thorns, the question on the bases
proposed by Lord Cowley.
Russia, on the other hand, seems to contemplate a
more enlarged treatment of the question, and a letter
received here yesterday from the Sardinian envoy at
St. Petersburg, Count lialdiuni, *gain mama the
Piedmontess government of Russia's partial good
wishes.

A letter from the Sardinian legation at Florence
says that at Forli, a town in the Romagna, a bloody
contest had occurred between the people and the
Swiss troops.
At Florence itself there is great excitement. The
Tuscan Monitore of the 23rd suspends the little
liberty of the press that was left, and re-establishes
the censorship. There was a talk of Balde►
seroni's resignation and that of the other ministers;
bat it seems there is repentance and fear in the
l'itti Palace. The new Minister of Public Instruc-
tion, Martini, demands the admission into the
government of two liberal chiefs, one of them being
Lucchesi, they say. lAnducci continues to be the
soul of the reaction in the Austrian sense. Now
that the freedom of the press is suspended, Tuscany
will of course be inundated with secret publications.
The directors of the Bibliotece civile dell'ltaliano do
not mean to give way an inch, and it pesos is not
concluded within a few days, there is every appose-
woe that the government will be overthrown.
