ITALY.

The accounts which we yesterday gave of an insur-
rection in the Valteline are confirmed.

The Concordia of the 28th ult. says the Valteline
is in a state of insurrection. The bridge over the
Adda is destroyed. For some hours the sound of the
tocsin and the firing of cannon have been heard in
the direction of Orgegno.
The Corriere Mercantile of Genoa, of the 26th
Oct. says, " Letters from Milan report that Chiavenne
has risen, and that one of the brothers DOLZINI, at
the head of 600 or 800 men, had come down from
the mountains, and made prisoners of the Austrian
garrison, and proclaimed a republic. DOLZINI is
causing part of the military road from Lecco to be
blown up, and fortify himself from the lake of
Como to Colico. The inhabitants of Chiavenne seeing
themselves thus isolated, wish DOLZINI to give up the
undertaking.

In the provinces of Branza and Bergamo a guerilla
war is incessantly carried on against the Austrians.
Como also is in insurrection. The Austrians have
been driven out of the town, and the Italian tricolor
floats from the cathedral tower.

The two following proclamations have been issued
by RADETZKY. The first is addressed to the soldiers
of the garrison of Vienna, the second to his own
army :

" Milan, Oct. 16.

"I am not your Commanding General. You are not
accustomed to the sound of my voice, or to follow me
to battle ; but as Field-Marshal, and as the oldest sol-
dier of the army [lladetzky is nearly eighty years of
age], I feel that I have a right to address you. Un-
heard-of events have taken place under you eyes! Aus-
tria's spotless banner has been tarnished by treason and
blood. Your Emperor has been compelled a second
time to fly from his capital. The War Minister,
Master• General of the Ordnance, Count Latour, has
been barbarously, scandaloualy murdered, and his corpse
dishonoured. A brave General fell, as they say, by the
hand of a grenadier ! A grenadier battalion forgot its
duty in the midst of orgies and shameful drunkenness.
It refused obedience, and—oh, eternal shame —fired
upon its faithful comrades. Soldiers of the Vienna gar-
rison ! in the name of your comrades of the Italia❑
army, I call upon you to tell me—have you done your
duty ? Where was the guard that ought to have de.
fended the murdered General Latour, who ought to
have perished to the last man, at his feet, ere they
abandoned him to the bloodthirsty fury of an excited
populace ? Where aro these traitors that have cast
shame upon our standards ? Have they met with
deserved punishment, or do they drag on their trea-
cherous existence, concealed amidst the ranks of the
insurgents ? Soldiers ! anguish overcame me, tears
fell from my aged eyes, ashen intelligence of infamy,
unheard of hitherto in the annals of the Austrian
army, came to my astonished ears ! One consolation
remained, however, to me. It ss as only a small band
who thus scandalously betrayed their honour, and basely
forsook their duty. On you, ye true and valiant men,
depends the safi guarsl of the throne of your Emperor,
and the consolidation of those institutions which he, in
his fatherly goodness, accorded to his people, and which
an insurgent horde base shamefully abused. Soldiers,
open your eyes to the abyss that yawns at your feet I
Everything is at stake. The foundation of the social
edifice is shaken. Morality, religion, and property are
menaced with destruction. They seek to annihilate
everything that men hold dear and holy—everything
which constitutes the basis of general welfare and pros-
perity. That, and not freedom, is the object of these
agitators, who seek to entice you into shame and destruc-
tion. Soldiers, in your hands rests the defence of the
throne, the maintenance of the empire! May Almighty
Providetcc grant me the favour to live to see the day
when it shall bo proclaimed aloud, The army saved
Austria.' Then, and then only, will the unhallowed days of
the Oth and 7th of October he atoned for and obliterated
—then will the army of Italy, now engaged in defending
the frontiers of the empire, extend to you the Land of
ibrothrb,,nd

(Signed) "RADETZKY."
"IL—GENERAL ORDER.
" Milan, Oct. 18.

" Soldiers—l communicated to you in a general of der
the appeal which I addressed to the garrison of Vienna.
You will have seen by that general order that the Gre-
nadier battalion (Richter) betrayed its duty, mutinied,
and fired upon its comrades. I have since then received
intelligence, that this battalion, fully repentant, has re-
turned to its duty, and as a convincing proof of its re-
pentance, has demanded to be placed at the head of the
first column of attack. Soldiers! I made you acquainted
with the disgrace of this battalion, it is just that you
should hoar of its repentance.
(Signed)

u RADETZKY."
