The Riforma of Lucca states from Leghorn, Feb.
27, that the Austrian cfficers in garrison there believe
they will be ordered to Rome very shortly, while a
Croatian regiment will take their place at Leghorn.
The following notification has been published there by
the military commander :
" This is to notify that the state of siege hitherto
limited to this city and to a radius of a mile beyond it,
shall henceforth comprise all the country as far as
Antignano, and is extended also over the whole terri-
tory under the jurisdiction of the delegate of the port.
" The Colonel Count F. DE CRENEVILLE.
" Leghorn, Feb. 25."
The Risorgimento of Turin quotes letters from Bo-
logna, of the 25th ult., stating that new highway
robberies had been committed in the vicinity. The
Roman Government has issued a circular to all its
functionaries, ordering them to cut of their mus-
tachios. The Giornale di Ronza, of the 23d, contains
an article in answer to the Observatore Romano,
which had alluded to the possibility of the interesting
ancient paintings lately found on the Esquilino being
exported to enrich some foreign museum, meaning
thereby the museum of Paris. The answer of the
official paper is, that the Government, in the case of
imaginary and exorbitant pretensions, will use the
power which existing laws place in its hands to pre-
vent ancient monuments from leaving Rome to adorn
any museum of Europe._

A letter from Rome of the 26th ult. says—
" Yesterday 6,C00 French troops marched out in fine
order, commanded by General Baraguay d'Hilliers, when
a sham fight took place. An immense concourse of the
Romans went to see it. The rapidity cf movement and
vivid firing were surprising. No accident whatever
occurred, and the day was delightful. The General
gave a soiree in the evening, which was attended by all
the noblesse of Rome; it was remarked that no Cardinals
were present."
Letters from Rome in the Nazionale of Florence
state that several thousand Austrians are shortly
expected there for the ostensible purpose of rai3ing
the Imperial arms over the hotel of the Austrian
Embassy.
- -

Cermischi, who was acquitted by the French court
martial of the charges brought against him, has been
again arrested by order of the Cardinals, and will be
again tried on the same accusation.
Letters from Leghorn, of the 23d ult., state that
the fortress of Portoferrajo is to receive an Austrian
garrison. The Austrians are fortifying the fort
of Portamurata, at Leghorn, on the land side. A
battalion of Imperial cavalry arrived at Leghorn on
the 22,1. Arrests are still the order of the day. M.
Antoine Bonaparte has arrived from Marseilles, and
proceeded to Florence.

The Toronto Board of Trade, in its annual repeat,
comes forward in support of free trade, and states—
" Your council congratulates the board that the obstruc-
tion to the freedom of trade between foreign countries
and this colony has been removed by an alteration in the
navigation-laws, which will have a tendency to remove
the disparity which now exists in the price of produce
between this country and the Uni!ed States, and your
council looks fir ward with confidence to the increased
prosperity which such as act of liberality on the part cf
the mother country cannot fail of producing."
In fee same report it is also observed:—."Your
council deems it of the utmost consequence that facili-
ties and encouragement should be held out to a better
class of emigrants, and it is believed that mach might
be effected through the instrumentality of the colonial
legislature. Rapid strides have of late years been made
in domestic manufactures; it is highly important that
everything be done calculated to develope the resources
of United Canada."
