THE RECOGNITION OF THE KINGDOM

OF ITALY.

A Paris letter in the Journal de Rouen publishes
the following more precise particulars concerning
the French circular relative to tho recognition of
the kingdom of Italy:

The first circular sent off on Saturday woe addreseed to
M. de Itayneval, Preach chargé d'affaires at Turin, with in-
structions to read it and gives copy to Baron Rkaaoli. This
circular bogies by referring to a recent demand addressed
to the Emperor by King Victor Emmanuel himself, to the
effect that the ►ingdom of Italy should be recognised by
France. This demand, the circular goes on to say, called
for reflection, but the imperial government had already felt
the necessity of putting an end to a state of things
which might give rise to false interpretations of
the policy of France. The Emperor, therefore, so•
cedes to the demand of King Victor Emmanuel,
but the imperial government thinks it necessary
to call the attention of the Italian government to the obli-
ptione created by the events accomplished within the few
lass years. Then follow general considerations, which
do not contain anything that can rightly be styled reserve—
and that wonl itself does not occur, any more than
the word " condition " but which refer to in-
terior protests. Coming to the Roman question,
the circular announces that the occupation of Rome
will be continued, until the necieseary guarantees
shall be given to France for the safeguard of those interest'
which she intended to protect in occupying Rome. These
Wt words, our correspondent informs us, are nearly textual.
It is, therefore, in virtue of this circular that regular diplo-
matic relations between Turin and Paris have been near
%Wished. On the day this eirealar was forwarded to Turin.
a telegraphic despatch was also sent off to announce it, and
Count Vimercati left, as we have said, to give an account to
Victor Emmanuel of the swam of his private mission.

PARDI, Jun 2t.

•
The Paris papers publish a telegram, dated
Rome, June 18, stating that a dispatch had been
received at the Vatican from Paris, announcing
the recognition of the kingdom of Italy de facto,
with the reservation of all rights.
The same telegram asserts that the French de-
spatch also expresses regret at the nonfulfilmeut
of the treaties of Zurich, and promises an indefi-
nite duration of the occupation of Rome by the
French troops. It is added, that in consequence
of this despatch the Papal government appeared
more reassured.

TURIN. Juin' 21.

TURIN, Jinn 20, E%rszio.

Garibaldi's bill on the national armament, with
some modifications which have been approved by
the ministry, was discussed to-day in the Chamber
of Deputies.
Signor Petrucelli opposed the bill. He protested
against any continuation of the occupation of Rome
by the French, as being opposed to the principle of
non-intervention. He considered this occupation
as an outrage committed against Italy.
This speech produced great agitation in the as-
sembly, and Signor Petrucelli was called to order
by the President.
The general discussion on the bill then termi-
nated. The different clauses will be discussed to-
morrow.
