ROME.

A profound alarm still occupied the imagination
of the Rotnans when the last dispatches left that city.
It would appear, indeed, from a private letter received
from the capital of the Papal States, that most of
this alarm has originated in a blunder as to the
events transpiring in Lombardy. On the 29th ult.
says this correspondent, a report was afloat that the
Italians had gained a glorious victory, and that RA-
DETZKY was killed. " The great bell of the capital,"
he continues, " was rang, and, all the other bells in
Rome answered it; muskets were fired here and
there ; and in a group more agitated than the others
there were loud cries of Long live CHARLES ALBERT,
only King of Italy!' A body of the people went to
the Minister MAAIIANI, who declared to them that the
news of the victory of the Italians was true. They
then went to the Sardinian Ambassador's, where a
person appeared on the balcony, and also announced
that the intelligence was correct, after which he cried
4 Long live CHARLES ALBERT, the victorious !"lhe
people were so impatient to ring the bells, that they
did not wait for the keys of the churches, but broke
open the doors ; and, as they were not accustomed to
bell ringing, some, instead of ringing peals of joy,
clanged the death bells, and others sounded the
tocsin. This, added to the discharge of muskets, and
the excitement of the people in the streets, caused
great dismay. By the discharge of the muskets se%
veral persons were Wounded."
W hen the fallacy of these impressions became known
the Chamber of Deputies issued The address already
published by ourselves, in which the Parliament re-
minded the SOVEREIGN PONTIFF of "the Divine words
addressed by him to the ALMIGHTY, who," said they,
" does not desire that his empire should repose only
on the sword." From a blunder in the wording and
punctuation of the original copy, from which our
translation of Saturday evening was taken, the sub-
stance was made to have reference to diabolical rather
than to celestial influences, to the Austrian EM-
PEROR instead of to OMNIPOTENCE.

A letter from -Rome, addressed to the Univers,
says,—" We are in a state of complete anarchy ; at
the moment at which I write to you it is said that
the civic guards are making common cause with the
heroes of Vicenza and the other factions : that they
have rejected awl trampled under foot the Pontifical - •
cockade, &c. GOD only knows what He reserves to
Rome. Many persons are taking measures for put=
ting themselves out of danger, and already have se-
veral of the Cardinals, who were most threatened,
left the city. Still, I believe, that 1,000 faithful
soldiers, commanded by an energetic men, would
suffice to maintain order."

Intelligence of a later date, describes the city as
restored to tranquillity by the paternal address of the
SOVEREIGN PONTIFF.

NAPLES.

Excepting p slight collision between a Swiss patrol
and the Lazzaroni, the capital was calm. A minis-
terial crisis is, however, shortly expected, as a de-
claration of BozzaLLl in the Chamber, that he would
no longer drag his heavy chains, is considered not-to
have been the result of the pique of the moment, but
of previous deliberation.
