ITALY.

TURIN, July 31.—M. Mazzini's present paper,
the Italia del Popolo of Genoa (his original journal
there, the Italia e Popolo, having ceased to exist
some months since) was sequestrated the day
before yesterday, or rather a supplement of it
was sequestrated, for an article written by M.
Mazzini himself, entitled " The Situation."
In this article the author denies the intention
on the part of himself and friends to plunder
in the recent movemen's in Italy ; he main
tains that th,,y made no mines ; and that the move-
ment at Genoa was not directed against the Pied-
montese Government, but in order to profit by
the means of action afforded by Genoa, and to lead
Piedmont into a revolutionary war ; and he con-
cludes by saying that he will never rest until he has
obtained his object. The following extract will
give a fair idea of the original :--
"The part which I took in the Genoese intention,,
whether ai chief or soldier, can signify little. I can, how-
ever, oppose to the base accusations the affirmations of
one who has never lied nor concealed the truth, not even
when it was dangerous to tell it, and I do so.

"It is false that any part whatever of the city was
mined. Any officer interrogated will state that the pur•
pose of sacks of powder with matches is to blow open
doors where it is necessary to force a passage.
" It is false that there was any intention to liberate
precautions were adopted even to
at flight during the tumult.

The orders quoted by the Gazette de Genova either do not
exist or are the work of a calumny.
"It is false that there was a list of the officers with
their addre.ses.

" It is false that there was an order of mine (quoted,
if I don't mistake, by the Cattolico) which speaks of the
distribution of booty to be observed by I don't know
what National Society.

" It is false, all accusation, I won't say of massacre,
but of war against the troops. Besides, if any instruc-
tions of mine or others are brought forward in the pro-
secution every man may convince himself that they
sisted on this—no violence ; the Piedmoutese soldiers
are Italians whose duty it is to fight for the common
soon try.
" It is false that there was any list of proscription.
The last lines written by me previous to the evening of
the 29th will make some of the calumniators blush if
they appear in the prosecuti )n.

"The design, which did not succeed, and about which
the Piedmontese Government is to-day busying itself,
was an Italian design. I think I have no need to prove
it. Leghorn, and the generous act of Pisacane, at-
tempted with arms partly Genoese, sufficiently indicate
the tendency of the local movement. Now, it was a bar-
biuger of other undertakings, and not an isolated propo-
sition undertaken for its own sake. And if the Govern -
went has sequestrated cockades, it knows what col )urs
they show. If Genoa arose it would have been not from
intolerance of bad local government, of enormous taxa-
tion, or of measures that, good in themselves, when our
boundaries shall be the Alps, are, now that they are at
the Magra, a gratuitous outrage to old reminiscences and
nothing else. It would have arisen for all ; for the wor.
ship of the national idea ; for wrath long and patiently
suppressed against the tyranny exercised by Austria
and her Pro-consuls on Italians ; to declare that it also
is an Italian city, that it haress the grief, the hopes, the
duties, and the shame which weigh upon the head of
enslabed Italy. As Pisacane seized the Cagliari, to
avail himself of her for the liberation of the prisoners of
Poeza and a descent on the Neapolitan coast, so did
Genoa wish that her materials of war, ber means of
action, should be mobilized for the benefit of the com-
mon country.
" This is the trntb, and no one can say that it is
not."

The Nord states that it has received from its
Berlin correspondent the important news, derived
from an excellent source, that " the recent events
in Italy will have the effect of causing an almost
immediate reconciliation bet we2.n Sardinia and
Austria, and the resumption of diplomatic relations
between Naple3 and Franca." On the latter
point the correspondent adds that " Prince Carini,
who was minister of the two Sicilies at London,
is to come to Paris, and will bs received by the
French government as minister of his Neapolitan
Majesty, without any explanation being exchanged
relative to the past."

the homage of my most profound respect. I have

pleased with the persons whom the Queen of Spaiu
has appointed to represent her at my court. I now
congratfilate myself that her confidence has been
placed on a person so distinguished in every respect
as yourself. The assurances which you give me of
the sincerity of the sentiments of the Queen and of
those of the Spanish people for France gratify me
greatly. Be assured the, on my side, no one offers
up more sincere prayers for the happiness of the
Queen, and for the grandeur of the people whom
she is called on to govern."
