LATEST NEWS.

The following telegrams have been received at
Mr. Reuter's office :

MODENA, Nov. 9, EVENING.

The following is a summary of a proclamation
issued to-day by Signor Farini, Dictator of Modena
and Parma, who has been provisionally appointed
Governor of the Romagna by the Assembly of

Bologna.
The Dictator commences by stating that he ac-
cepts with confidence the powers conferred upon
him by the representatives of the people, and that
he will do his utmost to overcome all difficulties

and dangers.
The Dictator continues thus :—" Europe knows
you are Catholics, and that you belong to the
Church as well as the Catholics of all other nations;
but, as Italians, you belong to Italy, and it is your
duty to love and defend your country, and to seek
its prosperity. You only ask for that which all
civilised nations have sought for, namely, liberty
of speech and conscience, and political freedom
and equality. You also demand the application of
those principles which form the basis of the public
right of nations, the glorious chief of that people,
which shed its blood for our cause, having invited
us to become soldiers, to fight for the independence
of Italy, under the standard of Victor Emmanuel,
and to become free citizens of our country. Europe
knows that it can secure the peace of Italy by ren-
dering Italy to the Italians. It is aware that we
are ready to give the necessary guarantee for order
throughout the country, and it also knows that the
people of the Romagna, if forbearance and mode-
ration should be of no avail, sooner than submit to
the yoke, would be advised only by their duty to
' their country, and the pursuit of the path of
honour.

FLORENCE, Nor. 9

of one vote, unanimously appointed Prince Carig-
nan as Regent, to govern the country in the name
of Victor Emmanuel, the elected King.

PARIS, Nov. 10

The Constitutionnel, of to-day, in a second article
on the Congress, signed by its principal editor, M.
Grandguillot, states that the late Prince Metter-
nich himself was convinced that the conditions
agreed upon at the Congress of 1815 could not be
lasting, and exhorts the Italians to be practical and
not to endeavour to advance too rapidly and render
the unity of Italy a weak counterfeit of the unity
of France. It further states that if they are deter-
mined to carry out this union, the reforms granted
will enable them to do so if they advance with
prudence.

The article terminates by expressing a hope that
the Italians will receive with deference the coun-
sels of the Powers of Europe, who will go to the
Congress full of feelings of sympathy for the
Italian cause.

PARIS, Nov. 10,

dispute between the Austrian and Sardinian pleni-
potentiaries as to the value of the florin, which the
former want to fix at two francs and some odd cen-
times, while the atter assert that it should be two
francs only. In the sum of a hundred millions, the
difference would amount to two or three millions."
The Nord, after alluding to the florin question,
says :—" To that obstacle may be added the ques-
tion of the convents, and more particularly the pre-
tension of Austria to continue to exercise over the
Lombard railway the control which was given her
by the deed of sale of the Austro-Italian lines, the
principal office of which is at Vienna."
A number of clerks belonging to the 2d section
of the army works corps have left Paris for Toulon,
where they are to embark kith the troops of the
Chinese expedition. The second battalion of the
Foot Chasseurs, now in garrison at Vincennes, has
been fixed on to form part of the expedition, and
will shortly leave Paris. Before embarking each
man will receive a straw hat, a blouse, and a pair
of linen trousers, under which uniform they will
show themselves to the Chinese. The strength of
the battalion will be raised.to 2,000 men. The
men who belong to the class of 1853, and whose
term of service expires next year, will not form
part of the expedition. Officers who are not strong
enough to undertake this distant campaign, and
those who are married, will be allowed to exchange.
The 101st and 102 d regiments of the line, now at
Lyons, have also been designated for the expe-
dition, and are now making their preparations for
departure.

The army ordnance authorities have just com-
pleted in the ateliers de precision a new field piece,
which was taken out to be tried for the first time
yesterday. It is stated to be an American inven-
tion. The gun is of wrought iron, loads at the
breech, and is of considerable size, requiring six
horses to draw it.
The Russian screw liner of 84 guns, the Gorgout,
is reported as having arrived at Ferrol, consider-
ably damaged by the late gales.
It was stated some weeks back that the Auda-
cieuse steam frigate had brought from China to
Brest 36 pieces of cannon which were part of those
taken by the Anglo-French forces in the first attack
on the forts of the Pciho. Eight of these guns
are of large size, the rest being culverins. All
bear Chinese or Tartar inscriptions, and some are
elegantly ornamented. The largest of all is about
10 feet long, and bears a Chinese inscription, of
which this is a translation :
" The Great General, who extends power and secures
victory (this is the name of the cannon), was cast in the
sixth year of the reign of the Emperor Hion-Foug (1856) ;
it weighs 9,0001 b., it receives 91b. of gunpowder, and a
271 b ball. The great Minister Kko-chi, who by Imperial
favour has been admitted as a Prince into the Imperial
family, President of the Committee of Arms, &c., and
Prince Botalkatai, Dando, Badouro, and Senggarintsin,
Directors of the Mantchou Fire Arms Manufactory, have
ordered this cannon to be made. Ming Tai, Chief of the
Wings of the Camp of Fire Arms, and Soui-Khi, a man of
letters, employed as reader to the Privy Council, have
superintended the casting. The principal workmen were
Sietouan-tching and Ou-sing-kie."
The inscription on the cannon next in size shows
that it was cast in the year 1841, under the reign
of the Emperor Tao-Kouang, and that it bears the
name of " General of the First Class, who com-
mands the sea."

SPAIN.

The Opposition journals of Madrid of the sth
complain-that Marshal O'Donnell retains the Pre-
sidency of the Council and Ministry of War whilst
commanding the expedition in Morocco, and
they say that public business must necessarily suffer
from two such important offices being occupied only
ad interim by two of his colleagues during his
absence. It was said that the English Cabinet had
r equested that an English military officer should be
allowed to accompany the expedition. According
to the Correspondancia, the English. Consul-General
at Tangiers bad embarked in a war steamer which
remained in the roadstead ; but at Tetuan no member
of the consular body had retired, as hostilities were
not expected there. More bishops had sent ad-
dresses to the Queen, expressing ardent sympathy
with the war. The Russian screw-ship of the line
Gargout, of 85 guns, had arried at Ferrol ; she had
sustained some damage from stress of weather.

A letter from Pcsth says: —" It is very generally
reported here, in well-informed circles, that the Go-
vernment intends to dispose of the crown lands in

Hungary by means of a great lottery at 50 florins
the ticket. The revenue of these lands was estimated,
before 1848, at 1,600,000 florins a-year. Now, as this
property yielded, at most, only 2 per cent., that in-
come represents a principal of 80,000,000 florins.
Since 1845, however, the value of land has in-
creased at least 50 per cent. in Hungary, chiefly
owing to the emancipation of the peasants, pro-
claimed by the Hungarian Diet. The extent of
the domains was also considerably increased by
confiscations in 1849, for, although a promise was
made to many families that their lands should be
restored, they have been fulfilled in but very few
instances. The crown lands in Hungary must
therefore be now worth at least 100,000,000
florins, and .if sold by lottery 150,000,000 might
probably be obtained. In Hungary, however, few
persons would have anything to do with the lot-
tery, as the alienation of the domains of the crown
would be considered illegal."

A Berlin letter says :—" When the official
notification of the signature of the treaties
of Zurich has been sent, an invitation to
a Congress will be forwarded immediately
after. Before leaving Turin the Prussian Minister
had an audience of the King of Sardinia. His
Majesty is said to have protested against the inten-
tion attributed to him of favouring the revolution-
ary party. He intimated that he was fully aware
of the importance of his measures regarding Ro-
magna, and of the answer which he made to the
deputation from that country, but that he had
thought it his duty, in consequence of his thorough
acquaintance with the situation; to assign legal
limits to the movement, which threatened to ran
into excess, and that he was convinced he had acted
in the interests of order and peace."
