(FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.)
PARIS, Sunday Evening.
The affairs of Italy assume prominent importance.
The Siecle has an important article on the subject.
That journal says :—" The French and foreign
newspapers arc now particularly occupied with the
fermentation which has suddenly been created in

Italy, and which has spread with electric speed from
one end of the Peninsular to the other. They
comment upon a letter of Garibaldi published in
the Riforma, an Italian journal, and which they

abstained from publishing because it forms a furious
Catalmian diatribe against the parties to the Con-

vention of the 15th of September. This manifesto
has increased the agitation. Committees are
formed, which place themselves in communication

with each other, and connect themselves with the

National Roman Junta.

That body, the forces of

nsurrection and of the National Roman Committee,

declares that the moral means alluded to byM.Rattazai
iu the Chamber a few thys ago are insufficient. In
their proclamation of the 17th inst. they call the

.tomaus to arms. "The Italina Government," they

say, "is united to them by a solemn treaty. Both
accept the accomplished fact. They cannot pro-
voke it. To us, Romans, and to us alone, is re-
served the honour of solving the ltotnau question,
and at the same time respecting the spiritual power

of Ow Popes. To overthrow the temporal power,
the eternal and implacable enemy of all liberty and

of all human progress, to insure to Rome, by unit-
ing it to Italy already constituted, the post which

has been assigned to her by the Italian Parliament,
and by Italy herself, to create an era of order,
peace, and greatness, such is our double and glorious

IlliSSiol2."

" Are we to conclude from this raising of shields
,hat we aro on the eve of combat ? That the

Roman population will soon commence the struggle

against those whom the National Junta call the mer=
cenaries of the Pope King, and that the Italian
_ _

Government, bound by solemn engagements, finds
itself under the cruel necessity of renewing Aspro-
=lite ? That would be premature. Complete
tranquillity reigns in the Roman States, even in the
province of Viterbo, which is the most hostile to the
Pontifical Government. No body of Volunteers
have appeared upon the frontiers, which are watched
by the 50th Italian Regiment of the Line, sent from
Perouse for the purpose. The moment is not yet
come when the temporal power of the Pope will
crumble to the dust like a ruined edifice, should it
not disappear iu the midst of an irresistible popular
tempest."

A despatch from Munich announces that King
Otho, of Greece, uncle to the King of Bavaria, now
in Paris, has just died at Bamberg at the ago of 52.
There was a Cabinet Council yesterday afternoon
at the Tuileries, at which the Emperor presided.

tunately the effect, if not for object, to induce the

ing the existing relations between the two Govern-

It appears by a letter from Rome that a solemn

Mexico, was celebrated in the church of the Aus-
trian Embassy in that city on Tuesday last.
The journal L'ltalie states that the committee
charged with the examination of the law relative to
the railways has terminated their labours. The
committee confined themselves to the decision that
it is to be left to the Government to continue at the
expense of the State the railways for such companies
as may not be able to complete their undertakings
themselves without assistance.
According to the Gazette of Northern Germany,
Austria and Prussia have come to a complete agree-
ment respecting Northern Schleswig, and that
Denmark only can have theidea of making au appeal
to Europe. The Austrian Government admits that
it is impossible for Prussia to deliver up the position
of Duppel to Denmark, and approves of the propo-
sitions recently sent by M. de Bisinark to Al. de
Qua& re,pecting the cession of lladersleben on CAl-
dition tim: the Danish Government is to give
guarantees for the safety of the "rational and in-
dividual rights of the Gortnans inhabiiing the ceded
territory.
