courier from Turin brought to Savoy, on the 2Gth
the important intelligence that the Prince de Carignan has
been acknowledged heir to the throne, has received from
the King of Sardinia the title of Royal Highness, and
has been appointed Generalissimo of the troops, in the
room of the Austrian General Antucci. This is a check
upon Austrian influence, and a triumph of the national and
liberal opinion of the country. To rumours of the march
of Austrian troops towards Piedmont have succeeded re-
ports of strict neutrality. The disposition of the people
and the army continue the same. In Savoy there are
&SOO Piedmontese soldiers.'
"'The CM stitutionnel, after describing the nomination
of the Duke de Nemours, and recommending the French
Government to sanction it, as the only means of saving
Belgium from anarchy, proceeds thus It appears al-
most certain that England will not precipitate herself into
an unjust war, to violate, to the injury of her commerce and
her repose, a right which she has herself loudly proclaimed
—that of non-intervention ; and if England remain in
peace, which is the Continental Power which will dare
to defy France ? As to the rest, we throw out these re-
flections in haste, and reserve ourselves until the determi-
not ion of the Cabinet of the Palais Royal shall be known.'
" The Quotidienne says—' The Polish Diet sent last
month to Vienna Count Michaelowsky, whose mission
was kept secret. It is asserted that this Envoy was
charged to offer the throne of Poland to the Duke de
Reichstadt, who in this case would have united Gallicia to
his new States. The Cabinet of Vienna is said to have
declined the proposal, its views respecting the Duke de
Reichstadt being quite different. This Prince, it is added,
is shortly to have an important post assigned him in the
army of Italy."
The Augsburg Gazette states that in the Rhenish
provinces a great quantity of calf•skins are being bought
up for France, probably for the purpose of making knap-
sacks.
" CHAMBER OF DEPUTIES, FEB. 5.

" Presidence of Monsieur de Lessert, (Vice-President.)
" The sitting commenced at two o'clock, when the
Chamber, according to the order of the day, proceeded to
the reports of the commission on petitions presented to the
Chamber by Rsputies and persons not belonging to the
Parliament.

" After which is announced the nomination of a com-
mission for the examination of the question of (amortisse-
snent) the sinking fund. Not a Minister at half-past two
o'clock is in his place, perhaps to avoid a menaced interpella-
tion ofM. Mauguin relative to the news arrived this day from
Belgium, of the nomination of the Duke de Nemours to
the throne of that country. M. Dupin enters the House
looking very much pre-occupied and pale in the face.
General Lamarque stalks to his place with a large packet
of papers containing, perhaps, his improvisation. The
Ministers enter at twenty-five minutes to three in the
following order :—Barthe, Soult, Lafitte. General Se-
bastiani arrived the sixth.

" The two or three first petitions (when the report of
the Commission was read) passed without much notice;
but the Deputies weighed somewhat seriously on that re-
specting the liberation of transports, and the treatment of
criminals imprisoned.

" The President announced that the Minister of War
(Marshal Soult), for the presentation of a project of law,
would succeed at the tribune. This project was for the
establishing of relief and pensions for officers and troops
of the army ; likewise some innovations on the present
system of pensions for wounds, &c.
" After which the reporter of the Government Com-
mission read the King's ordinance on this subject. The
leading of the project of the Minister of War and the
Ordinance has taken so much time that it is suspected no-
thing will be said to-day upon Belgium. It is now four
o'clock."
