" PROGRAMME OF THE NEW ROMAN MINISTRY.

" Rome, Nov. 18, 1848.
" Called to the Ministry in the midst of extraordinary
circumstances, and at a time when a refusal on our part
would have had the effect of placing in certain peril the
constitutional form of Government which is at present in
force in our State, we should be frightened with the gra-
vity of affairs and of the times, if we were not supported
by the thought that our political programme is in per-
fect harmony, not only with the principles proclaimed by
the people, but also with those which, after ripe delibe-
ration, have been accepted by our legislative Chambers
—principles which will serve to regulate all our actions
as long as we remain in power. Among these principles,
there is one which has received, by a solemn act, the
assent of the Prince; and as regards another, a promise
bas been made that he would concert with the new
Ministry, in order that analogous propositions should
bo presented for the acceptation of the deliberative
Chambers.

" The principle of the nationality of Italy, proclaimed
by our people and by the Chambers a hundred times,
and accepted by us, has been sanctioned without reserve
by the Prince, at the time when, with paternal zeal, ho
recalled it to the recollection of the Emperor of Austria,
in his letter to that Prince. Considering that, in order
to gain this good, we must think it indispensable to exe-
cute the deliberations adopted by the Chamber of
Deputies concerning the independence of Italy, our firm
resolution to put in practice these deliberations is no-
thing else but a frank adhesion to the wishes of the re-
presentatives of the people. No one will doubt our full
adhesion to the programme of the sth of June, which
was received with so much enthusiasm by tne deliberative
Chambers. The Convocation of a Constituent Assembly
at Rome, and the drawing up of a federative act, are
principles and maxims which we find laid down in the
opinion expressed by our Chambers, for the convocation
of a Diet at Rome, destined to discuss the general in-
terests of our common country.

"At the present day, when to this opinion, to that
fundamental maxim, comes to be joined the assent of
the Prince, who also wishes to submit, the decision of it
to the Chambers ; of the Sovereign whom the whole of
Italy has saluted as the initiater of her liberty and in-
dependence, our heart beats at the idea of the proximity
of the moment when we are allowed to hope that we
shall at length see the birth of that federal compact,
which, respecting the existence of the isolated states,
and leaving intact their form of government, will serve
to insure the liberty, the union, and independence of
Italy. This work will be perfected, in our opinion, when
the glory of Rome and the venerated name of a Pontiff
will have associated in the accomplishment of it.
"We present ourselves with this programme before
the people and the Chambers. If the people accord to
us their confidence, we will use all our efforts to con-
tinue to deserve it. The Chambers arc about to be called
together, in order to prove to us if they will accord to
us their confidence, and it is permitted to us to hope
that we shall receive it if their political principles con-
tinue to be, at the present day, what they were in times
past.

The POPE having accepted the resignation of
Prince C. ALDOBRANDINI, commandant of the Civic
Guard of Rome, has appointed, on the proposition of
the Minister of the Interior, Colonel JOSEPH GAL.._
LIENO, in his stead. During the 16th Prince Ros-
riamosi distributed bread, wine, and cheese, to the
crowd, on the Monte Cavallo. The new Ministry
has ordered all the arms of the Swiss Guard at the
Palace of the Quirinal to be removed. By order of
the Pope, the Castle of St. Angelo is guarded by
soldiers of the line and the Civic Guard. A civil
guard mobile of 1,000 men is to be immediately es-
tablished, to act along with the troops who have re-
turned from Vincenza. The Argentino theatre is
to be illuminated a giorno, in honour of the new
Ministry.
It appears that the hauteur of the unfortunate I
Count Rossi had made him personally disliked by all
classes of his countrymen ; as an illustration we
quote the following from the Contemporaneo :
" Prince Barberini having been named member of a
commission created by Rossi, conceived himself obliged
to go and thank him for it. lie was no sooner announced
from the antechamber than the Minister said, Give me
the Gazette, and began to read it. After some time the
servant returned to inform him that Prince Barberini
wished to speak with him. am now reading the
Gazette,' replied he, when I have finished the Prince
may enter.' The Prince was kept in the antechamber
accordingly, and an hour passed before he obtained an
audience. Was there ever a more aristocratic minister
than Rossi ?"
Some disturbances have taken place at Pisa, in con-
sequence of the election of two deputies of the old
Chamber. The Prefect and First Councillor of the
Prefecture succeeded with difficulty in persuading si
