FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE.
GENoA, Arum 18.—The most perfect tranquil-
lily continues to be enjoyed here; so much so, that
even the most timid no longer feel any apprehen-
sions. The course of the government is the same us
if no change had ever occurred. or as if what had
:knottily taken place existed only in the decrees of
the Junta of Turin. Our security is not less
founded on the excellent disposition with which all
the inhabitants arc animated, than on the military
force at present stationed in Genoa. Besides the
:regiment of the Queen, who remained here during '
the late transactions, there entered yesterday a bat-
talion of Cacchiaitori, with a troop of cavalry ; and
other royal troops are very shortly expected,
Count Bubua, commander-in-chief of the Austrian
troops, in a despatch directed to Gen. de Latour,
Las evinced the most favourable disposition towards
the Genoese, as will appear from the fidlowing
document, which we feel it our duty to make
public :
• ALESSANDRIA, APRIL no sooner rtrul the procla-
mation of Genoa, than I gave orilets to my vanguard. which had
tolveneed to tar as Novi, to halt. Perceiving lies-Geneys to be
at the head of tl.e Government, I no longer felt any doubts of
the submission of the duchy to the King's orders, and therefore
excuse myself from any proecetLng that may cause inquietude to
the Genoese."
Within these few days a great number of disbanded
soldiers, and other individuals compromised of the
revolution, have directed their course towards
Genoa. With a view of preventing the disorders
to which the assembling of such a hotly in the city
might have given rise, the precaution was adopted
of directing the soldiers at the different barracks to
permit very fey persons to enter the city, and of
securing quarters fin. Cie greater part of the fitgi-
Lives in the suburb of San Pier da Reina. They
have subsequently hired some vessels, and under the
the guidance of a few officers, have embarked, as it
is supposed, for Spain. Not a few have embarked
also at Savona.
ROME, APRIL I3.—The King of Naples leaves
Florence to-morrow, and will arrive here on Sunday
morning. His Majesty and suite will be preceded
by his wife, the Princess of Portana, and her retinue,
who were to set out front Florence to• day, and are
expected here to-morrow.
Both the western road by Sienne and .Aquapn-
dente, and the eastern by Perugia and Foligtto, are
crowded with Austrian baggage-waggons, carriages,
and troops, passing on to Naples or returning from
that kingdom. The convoys everywhere behave
with the utmost order, and observe the strictest
discipline. 1 did not hear of a single instance of
insolence or outrage in their passage through the
Tuscan and Roman slates except one, where an
Austrian officer, after some harsh words to a butcher
fin not supplying him quickly enough with rations,
went the length of striking him. The butcher
plunged his knife into his heart, then fled, and has
not yet been apprehended. In the Roman and
Tuscan states they paid ti:r every thing in ready
money. NVltat they may do in Naples afterwards
remains to be seen. _

His Holiness the Pope, in conjunction with the
government of Naples, is taking the most active
measures to destroy the Carbonari. An edict has
been issued against them, and is posted up in the
principal streets of Rome. The partisans of this
sect exist in proportionally small numbers at Rome,
but they abound in the northern provinces, and par-
ticularly at Bologna and its neighbourhood, where
the people cannot he made to comprehend the Ides-
sings of papal and delegated government. The en-
suing ssetk being passion week, and Rome being at
present full of strangers, the ceremonies were ex-
pected to be very brilliantly attended. Besides the
King and the Court of Naples, there will be here
Prince Maximilian of Saxony, and his daughters
(one of whom is immediately afterwards to be
married to the Archduke of Tuscany), together with
several foreign ministers, and other distinguished
tbreigners.
