ITALY.

TURIN, Jura 23.
In to-day's sitting of the Chamber of Deputies
Baron Ricasoli, President of the Council of Minis-
ters, made the following statement :
"The government is happy to announce to the
Chamber an event which will be received with great
satisfaction by the Italian people. The Emperor
of the French has recognised Victor Emmanuel
as King of Italy. The right of our nation-
ality, which until now has only been graven
in the conscience of the people of Italy, will soon
become a right recognised by all Europe. The re-
cognition of the Kingdom of Italy by France and
England definitively determines our position in
Europe. Italy is now placed among the other
sisterly nations, and occupies the place which has
long been denied her. The recognition of
the Italian Kingdom is the fulfilment and
the seal of the memorable words pro-
nounced by the Emperor of the Frenohin July, 1869,
in replying to the congratulations of the constitu-
tional bodies of state of France shortly after his
return from tho glorious campaign in Italy. He
said, The future will show the results of this
peace for the happiness of Italy, the great-
new of France, and the peace of Europe.' The
Chamber will certainly acknowledge as a fresh
proof of the Emperor's good will the
moment itself which he has chosen for
making this solemn manifestation. It is certainly
his intention to render lees painful to Italy the
great misfortune by which she has been overtaken.
Italy will see in this fresh cause for being grateful
to the generous nation whose genius and noble
instincts the Imperial Government so worthily re-
presents. Ido not consider that lam lowering the
dignity of Italy in declaring that she ought to be
thankful to France. (Cheers.) Do not fear that
our gratitude towards France can demand of ris the
least sacrifice of our rights or of our interests.
(Cheeea) Between France and Italy there cannot
1* any conflict of interests. Liberty, progress, and
humanity will henceforth be the sole common aims
of civilised peoples. Italy and France will go hand
in hand to this noble result. Such is the new basis of
the policy of the Emperor of the French, inaugurated
by the war in Italy, a policy which will
form the best title of his glory, and which
will give to the world that which it is most in need
of, namely, peace founded on justice. (Cheers.)
Let us rejoice at this new success ; but do not let us
forget that our work is not yet completed. We
owe this success principally to wisdom, constancy,
concord, magnanimous emulation, eforta, and
sacrifices. We still require these virtues, the effects
of which cannot be compensated by any friendship
or foreign support. These virtues are the true
motives of the past, and the moat sure token of the
future." (Prolonged cheering.)
Signor Muronnio, member of the left, said—" 1
find a deficiency in the communication of Baron
Ricasoll, in his silence with regard to Rome, our ca-
pital by right." He asked for explanations.
Baron Ricesoli replied—" There is at present
no ambassador of Italy at Paris, nor any French
ambassador at Turin. This part of oar rela-
tions has not been settled, but will be so very
shortly. As regards Rome, I can assure you
that the government has no intention of allowing
the question to rest. It is too important for the
government not to incessantly occupy themselves
with it. The Chamber will, however, understand
the gravity of the question, the difficulties of which
must be overcome solely by way of negotiations
with Napoleon, which are continually going on.
1 flatter myself that in time, the period of which
I certainly cannot fix, we shall arrive at arch a
result as will meet the best wishes of the natior.
In the meantime I can assure that +he recognition
of the Kingdom of Italy does not involve any con-
dition nor any insult to our national rights."

The London papers of Wednesday morning pub-
lish, amongst their telegraphic intelligence received
through Mr. Reuter, a despatch coming from the
Marseilles agent of the Haves-Butler correspond-
ence, and originating somewhere else no do4bt,
which is a downright, unmixed, and mischievous
falsehood. The date of that pretended news from
Naples being as long ago as the 15th inst., it 'Was
ratber careless, at least, to send it forth on the
19th in London, without the slightest confirmation.
I refer to the alleged insurrection of the towns of
Ban Marco and Tignano, which are said to have
been stormed by the royal troops, twenty of the in-
habitants put to death, and the towns afterwards
burned. There is no foundation foe this story.
We have journals and letters from Naples of four
days later date, nc to which time there was not
even any disturbance in those districts. It is a
malignant invention of the enemies of Italy, but
not their first, nor will it be the last.
