PIEDMONT.

The Piedmontese Gazette publishes the text of the
treaty concluded at Turin on the 12th of June last,
between Sardinia and Persia. By this treaty
the ambassadors, ministers, and consuls of either
of the two contracting powers shall be treated by
the other on the footing of those of the most fa-
vourite nations. Traders of both countries are to
be protected and enjoy the privileges granted to
the most favoured nations. All disputes between
Sardinian subjects in Persia are to be settled by
the Sardinian Consul ; those between Sardinian
and Persian subjects are to be decided by Persian
judges, in the presence of a functionary of the
Sardinian Consulate. The same rule is to hold
in Sardinia as regards Persian subjects. In cases
of decease, the succession is in both countries
to be given up to the lawful heirs or assignees ,
through intervention of the consul of the na-
tion to which the deceased belonged. The
Sardinian Con,uls are to reside at Teheran,
Bender Booshir, and Tauris ; the Persian
consuls, at Turin, Gen Ja, and Cagliari. -the treaty
is to last J 2 years, and then continue from year to
year until either of the contracting powers shall
signify its intention, one year beforehand, of giving
it up.

himself in direct relation with the Cabinets of the
two countries. It is added that it is probable that
Prince Petrulla may be charged with this mission.
