STATE OF ITALY.

A is stated that the King of Italy is on excellent
private terms with the Pontiff, and throughout the late
events he has kept up a correspondence with Pius IX. A.
large number of the Italians consider that the nation has
been tricked and Garibaldi cruelly sacrificed. Had the
King, they say, taken the tide of public feeling at its
height, the door of Rome would have opened to Italian
troops. But the moment was allowed to go by, and a
terrible despatch from the Tuileries put an end to all
hope. Louis Napoleon is said to have threatened the die•,
memberment of Italy in favour of Austria.

The Florence correspondent of the Liberte mays Mazzini
is master of the situation. Within two years, if Victor
Emmanuel flinches from making "War with France" his
motto, Mazzini will receive the heritage of the King
Every Garibaldian is now a Mazzinian. Mazzini's procla:
mations are affixed to the walls of Florence ; the police
tear them down, but they are immediately replaced. The
students read them aloud in the streets to applauding
audiences. . Turin is ready for the barricades ; at Naples
there is a wild carnival. By the let of May Italy will have
300,000 men under arms.

The semi-official Etendard says the Holy See and the
city of Rome are secure, the banditti are dispersed, the
Papal territory is under the authority of the Pope,
Garibaldi is a prisoner, and the revolution is disarmed.
France has replaced affairs in the state they were prior
to the Convention of the 15th September. No interest,
therefore, requires that she should continue to occupy
Rome. Her troops might return to Toulon. Provision-
ally, however, a few thousand men will be left at
Civita Vecchia as an army of observation. This
print then proceeds to praise the course of the Italian
Government subsequent to Garibaldi's defeat, and expresses,
a hope for a speedy re-establishment of amicable relations
between the two Governments. The Italian Government,
however, wishes for a definitive solution of the Roman
question consistent with the aspirations of Italy and the
interests of religion. It carefully avoids " the rights of
the Papacy," which the Etendard accounts an
element.

A correspondent of the Telegraph professes to give tne
secret history of the administrative muddle at Florence
which enabled Garibaldi to reach the Roman States.
When the Chief of Police asked for instructions to arrest
the General, Rattazzi, having just resigned office, referred
him to Cialdini. The latter, not having formed his
Ministry, would not undertake the responsibility of order.
ing the arrest. The officer Ulm sought an audience of the
King. Victor Emmanuel drew his cigar-case from
his pocket, looking fixedly the while at his
interlocutor, selected his cigar, lit it, and turned
to an open window, out of which he proceeded to
lean and smoke vigorously, not having uttered a word
during the whole business. The Chief of Police waited
respectfully for nearly ten minutes, under the idea that his
Majesty was excogitating the answer to be given. He
then ventured to renew his inquiry ; as, however, the per•
finned silence was unbroken by a syllable, and the King
did not even turn his head, but continued gazing at space
and pulling at his weed, the puzzled functionary withdrew.l
and Garibaldi was let alone.
Garibaldi calls himself an American citizen. rise
'United States Consul at Rome will probably have a
difficult account to settle with his Government. He has
patronised the worst conduct of the Papalini. The Junta
have sent him several death-warnings in consequence. The
representative of a Republican Government rode to battle
with the staff of the Pontifical army. Within the
city he is said to have manifested positive sympathy
with the Pope's lictors, some of whose outrages were
neither more nor less than indiscriminate slaughter.
Four gendarmes directed a volley of bullets at the Mar.,

The correspondent of the Telegraph says that two gen.
darmes levelled their rifles at himself and two friends as
they were drinking coffee in the Hotel de Rome. One of
the party saw the " glint of the barrels in the moonshine,"
and they escaped. This hotel belongs to Antonelli, and
is supposed to be bien vu by the Government.
