In the sitting of the 19th of the Chamber of
Deputies cf Turin, Sig. VALERIO addressed a ques-
tion, of which he had given notice, to the Minister of
Foreign Affairs, on the subject of the diplomatic re-
lations of Piedmont with Rome, and of a rumoured
league of the former power with the other States of
Italy, The Minister replied that the Government
was undoubtedly making every effort to restore har-
mony between the Church and the State, but that it
would never sacrifice its duty to the country in order
to obtain that end. The Minister added that the
only cause of Count SiccAapt's resignation was his
precarious state of health, and that as to a league
with the other Italia❑ States, there was no foundation
whatever in that rumour.
