THE ITALIAN .CONFERENCE OF DELEGATES.

The Conference met yesterday at the hour appointed,
but did not proceed to business until near twelve. A•
F. V. liJrromeo again occupied the chair. The number
of dd.' gates had constderably increased, there being no
less than thirty-nine present. A ;dumber of letters and
documents were lead from parties, some f considerable
nce,•expressiog sympathy with the movement.
The CHAIRMAN, in rising to address the meeting, re,
gretted that he occupied a poet that would have been tio
much more worthily filled by any of those many gentle•
men who composed the conference. He had only se'
c.:ded to the request made him by his friends around to
fulfill that post, fur fear of placing any other gentleman
present in a situation that, when he returned to his
country, might entail upon him many inconvenienced.
The sole object of the conference was to revive the move•
m.e,nt nearly successful in 1848, of forming a confedera-
tion of the Italian States, having for its centre a
controlling power. Many might differ with regard to
the best means of reviving the movement on sound
grounds ; but no. one could doubt that the only
prospect of Italy's regeneration lay in the movement

well concerted and briefly contested, could .ever over-
come the power of an empire, aided by the enormous in-
fluence and arms of foreign allies. Their movement was
essentially a moral force agitatiOn, and he trusted that-
it would be fully understood as Ouch.
Signor CURIONI moved the following resolution
"That immediate steps be taken by the National Cow
sat utional League of Italy to prepare an address, setting
forth the claims of Italy to have her wants carefully and
calmly considered by the various powers of Europe, with
a view of obtaining tbeir support in furtherance of the
principles of the League:"
Signor COMInNTI moved that after the word Europe
should be added, "and especially those (Powers) that
had Biped the treaty of Vienna in 1815."
Signor LITTA, another delegate, opposed the alters-
tion, which was, after a short time, withdrawn, and the
resolution, as originally submitted to the meeting, waif
passed unanimously.
The Cavaliers CAsTizin moved "That a committee of
three be appointed, composed of Signori Brambilla, Litta,
and Da Cust&, to draw up the address, and submit it to
the attention of the Conference of Italian Constitutional
Delegiltes, if possible, to enable the committee to per-
form the task allotted them, that the conference be ad.

and the meeting adjourned to this day.
