TURIN, JUNE 28, EVENING.

To-day, in the Chamber of Deputies, Signor
Peruzzi supported the proposal of the Committee
on the Budget to limit the authorization to collect
the taxes to a period of four months, and said that
he did not wish to express either confidence or dis-
trust. , He thought the Ministry did not follow the
policy of Count Cavour, and defended the Ricasoli
Ministry against some accusations.
Signor Peruzzi also alluded to the visit of Gari-
baldi to the Continent, adding that it was not the
Ricasoli Ministry who summoned him. He spoke
of the necessity of Rome being the capital of Italy,
and said the Ministry ought to employ moral, dip-
lomatic, efficacious, and energetic means to this end,
and not follow a policy of expediency.

RUSSIA.

La Presse has the following :

" The conflagrations in Russia are spreading from
St. Petersburg to the provinces. At Tiflis, on the
16th May, 10 houses were burnt to the ground ; at
Mohilew, on the 9th June, 20 houses; at Czerni-
chow, on the 11th June, 44 houses, 133 shops, and
a church. Conflagrations have also taken place at
Novgorod and at Cronstadt,
" Terror prevails at the seat of Government. The
force entrusted with the care of the public safety
has been increased. The houses are closed, and no
stranger is admitted. The losses at St. Petersburg
are estimated at many hundred millions of roubles.
In addition to the numerous arrests that have been
made, the sudden disappearance of Col. Rostoffsoff,
Aide-de-Camp of the Emperor, has given rise to
much comment. He is accused of being connected
with the secret societies, and in correspondence with
them. What adds to the excitement caused by this
incident is, that the Colonel, now denounced as a
revolutionist, is the son of the General who put a
stop, by his revelations, to the insurrection of 1825,
and was ever afterwards the devoted, confidential
adviser of Nicholas."

THE SOCIAL EVIL.--A number of foreign gentle-
men now visiting the metropolis assembled on Saturday
evening at the St. James's Hall, Piccadilly, for the purpose
of hearing a statement and joining in a discussion respect-
ing the laws existing in this country for the suppression
and discouragement of what is popularly designated " the
great social evil." The affair was set on foot by the pro-
moters of the midnight mission, in consequence of the erro-
neous opinions circulated by M. Assolant, and other spe-
cial correspondents of the continental press, tending to mis-
t lead their countrymen on this important though delicate
subject. Amongst those present were Dr. Forbes Winslow,
the Rev. Mr Marzials, pastor of the French Protestant
church, St. Martin's le-Grand, Mr. J. Stabb, and Mr. J.
L. Keys. The proceedings, which were conducted through-
out in the French language, were commenced by Mr. Keys
who dwelt upon the difficulties associated with the question
amongst all moral nations, and referred particularly to the
scandal of the public appearance of fallen women in the
streets of London and our other large towns. He next pro-
ceeded to show that the intense jealousy with which the
English regard any infraction of personal freedom rendered
impossible the introduction of any system of police regula-
tions such as is in vogue on the continent, more especially
as such a system was considered by very many persons as
a direct sanction of vice. He went on to describe the laws
and police regulations established for the suppression of
vice in this country, and having shown that all eff.rts for
the reclamation of unfortunate women must be left to the
charity of individuals, enumerated the various " peniten-
tie/ ies" and " homes" which have been instituted for that
object. An account was then given of the midnight mis-
sion, which it was asserted had effected a vast amount of
good. At the conclusion of Mr. Keys' statement a general
conversation ensued, in the course of which various sug-
gestions were made for the removal of the unsightly scenes
which take place nightly in our leading thoroughfares. The
meeting did not separate till a late hour.
PRIZE-FIGHTING IN LEEDS.---On Thursday, at
the Leeds Town-hall, John Parkinson, carter, of York-
road, and Wm. Waite, miner, of 4, Elm-street, York-road,
wore charged with being concerned in a prize-fight on Sun-
day night, in a field belonging to Mr. J. Lister, farmer, of
Skelton Grange. Inspector Lister and a party of the po:ice
heard of the proposed encounter, and went to the field, but
as soon as they were observed the members of the P.R. and
their followers, to the number of 400 persons, scampered
away in various directions, and the polies only succeeded in
apprehending the two prisoners. Waite was one of the
combatants, and Parkinson had seriously assaulted Mr.
J. Lister, upon the latter gentleman attempting to stop the
disgraceful proceedings. Mr. Lister was struck, and kicked,
and stoned, and his face and head bore testimony to the
iroughd treatment

Oldham, one of the prixcipals in another fight fixed to come
off during the week, was bound over in his own recog-
nisances to keep the peace for six months.
