SARDINIA.

The Opinione of Turin of the 20th, in a leading
article on the subject of the Danubian Principali-
ties, expresses its conviction that no European
Power, except Austria, can object to Col. Couza's
double election. A letter from Milan, in the same
paper, states that the iron crown has been trans-
ferred from Monza to 'Mantua.
The members of the Chamber of Deputies of
Sardinia who voted against the loan of 50
millions, not content with the motives brought
forward in the discussion against the Ministerial
project, have published a declaration, in which
they defend themselves against the reproach of
serving foreign intentions, and add that the nation
well knows that a certain party intends to apply
the loan to aggressive purposes, and that it was for
that reason they voted against it, and refused to the
Cabinet the means of compromising the future wel-
fare of the country. This declaration is signed by
M. Solaro della Margarita and four other members
in the name of the 35 who formed the minority.

The Presse d' Orient of the 12th, received through
Trieste, says :—" It has been already announced
that some troops will be immediately sent to the
Danube. It is merely necessary to bear in mind
the difference which recently arose between the
Powers who signed the treaty of Paris and Austria,
on the subject of a military demonstration of the
latter on Belgrade, to comprehend that the sending
of some regiments to the Danube cannot, in the
present state of things, concern either Wallachia or
Moldavia."

The Vienna Gazette remarks on the late article
of the Prussian Gazette, and declares itself satisfied
with the attitude adopted by the Cabinet of Berlin.
In alluding to the passage of that article relative
to Russia, the official journal of Vienna says :
" We have not forgotten the good relations which
formerly existed between Russia and Austria, and
we remember the time when the principles which
are now in question found a powerful support in
Russia. That is the reason why we share in the
hope expressed by the Prussian Gazette with regard
to the good offices of that State in favour of peace."

At Venice contracts have been entered into for
the construction of three new forts, wnich are to
be completed in six weeks. According to the
Opinione (of Turin) 5,000 workmen, collected from
all parts of the Venetian territory, are already
occupied on these works.

THE LATE DEAN OF CHICHESTER.--We under-
stand that the late Dean of Chichester (the Rev. Dr. Chan-
dler) has, by his will, bequeathed the sum of £2,000 to be
applied either towards the erection of a new church, the
endowment of the Chichester Diocesan College,
by o rhe to ha
improvement of the cathedral—to be decided
t notw
dean and the two archdeacons. After the funeral last week
a meeting of the clergy present at the ceremony was held at
the deanery, and, on the proposition of Archdeacon Otter,
it was resolved that steps should be taken to erect some
memorial of the late dean in connection with the building
—the cathedral—for the restoration of which he had done
se much. It is reported that the form which this memo-
rial is most likely to take is that of the restoration of the
choir,—As4.slC4 4(lvertiser.
