place of Don MIGUEL LOPEZ ALCEVEDO, who retires
at his own request. The new director of infantry,
General Pavia, has just addressed a circular to the
chiefs of that part of the army, in which is the follow-
ing passage :

It i 3 not necessary for me to remind you of the
duties imposed upon you by military laws; I will merely
recommend you to accomplish them with the same ex
actitude. I will, however, remind you of one duty, the
accomplishment of which will render all others simple
and cafe; it is the duty of passion and absolute obe-
dience. He who obeys is never responsible for any evil
that may result."

A Aratirid letter of the 20th states that M. MEN-,
DIZABEL, the ex-Minister, has published a kind of
manifesto, in which he declares himself with great
energy against any violation of the Constitution. It
is added, that several of the most important and in-
fluential persons at Madrid have addressed to the
QUEEN a memorial, praying her not to sanction any
projects against the Constitution that may be con-
ceived by her Ministers.:
It Leing the festivity of the AECODSIOI3, the Bourse

GERMAN Y.
A letter from Berlin of the 21st, in the Indepen-
dance of Brussels, states that on the preceding day a
Cabinet Council decided that the present Chambers
shall not again be convoked, and that before the elec-
tions for a new Chamber a new electoral law for the
formation of the First Chamber shall be promulgated
by the Crown, in conformity with the Constitution.
M. DE MANTEUFFEL, however, was stated to be op-
posed to this decision, end up to the 21st it bad not
received the sanction of the KING. It was said that
the First Chamber, when newly constituted, will
consist of 120 members-90 elected by the largest
tax payers in the different electoral districts, and 30
nominated by the municipalities of the great townie.
M. DE HECKEEILEN, Senator of France, before
leaving Vienna, had an interview with the Austrian
Minister of Foreign Affairs. He subsequently pro-
ceeded to Berlin, and had on the 20th an interview
with the President of the Council. M. DE HEC-
ICEEREN was, it is said, formerly in the service of
Russia.

The Count DE CEIAMJAORb arrived at Vienna on the
18th, and after paying a visit to several influential
personages, returned to Frohsdorff.

ITALY.
The Piedmoniese Gazettc, of the 22d, announces
officially that MM. D'AZEGLIO, PALEOCAPA, and
PERNATI, have resumed their respective portfolios of
Foreign Affairs, Public Works, and Interior; that
13oNcompitom has accepted the department of
Justice vacated by M. GALVAGNO ; and M. CIBRARIO
has been named Minister of Finance in lieu of M.
CAVOUE. The department of Public Instruction,
lately held by M. FARINI, is provisionally intrusted
to M. BONCOMPAGNI. M. LAMARMORA retains the
department of War, to which that of Marine is added.
In the sitting of the 21st of the Chamber of De-
puties of Turin, MM. Cevourt and FARIrr, the late
Ministers, took their seats on the benches of the
right.

On the subject of the late crisis, the Risiorgmento
of:furin, a Ministerial paper, observes as follows:
The silence of M. Ratazzi, the conduct, votes, and
zeta of the Left Centre lead us to believe that there is a
material difference between the programme of the latter
and that of the Marquis d'Azeglio. M. Ratazzi has re-
fused to adhere to the latter, in order not to break his
faith with the Left Centre; M. Ratazzi has therefore
acted honourably, but he has tacitly admitted the exist-
ence of the difference; consequently M. Ratazzi cannot
accept office with the Marquis d'Azeglio. Hence the
crisis has not been owing to personal antipathy or
foolish jealousy, but to a real difference of principles."
The Opinione trusts that Count Cevoun will, in
his new position, employ his influence in cementing,
not breaking up, the present majority ; and reminds
him that his present importance is entirely owing to
his having introduced important changes in the finan-
cial system. .
