A rather poor drama, acted at Turin, called The
Siege of Alessandria, and representing scenes from
the time of BARBAROSSA, but of course full of allu-
sions to the late events in Lombardy, having excited
the displeasure of the Austrian Minister, and induced
him to address a note to the Government ;
D'Azzonio answered it by sending the Ambassador a
few numbers of the Milan journal r Operazo, in which
King VICTOR EMMANUEL IS most grossly calum-
niated, observing at the same time that under a
stitutional Government many things cannot be pre-
vented, but that such language as that of the paper
alluded to, printed in a city under the regime of
martial-law, must have been at least connived at by
the local Government. The result of this affair is not
yet known.
The departure of the Porz for Rome is fixed for
the beginning
of Lent. He will be preceded by
Cardinals FRAN ZONI and LAMBRUSCIIINL His
HOLINESS, it is said, will re-enter his capital accom-
panied by the Spanish troops ; and if France should
not consent to this, he will place himself at Bologna,
under the protection of the Austrians.
By a notification of the Roman Government Com-
mission, dated the Ist, the importation of corn,
cattle, oil, soap, and a few other articles duty-free,
at Ancona and Civita Vecchia, is abolished. On
the 30th ult. a society of 30 noblemen gave a grand
ball at the Palazzo Poli. General BARAGUAY
D I'll,llElls and General FERNANDO CORDOVA, and
several French and Spanish officers, were present.
The Tuscan Government has doubled the duties
on corn and merchandise introduced into the free
port of Leghorn, It has also increased the price of

salt, and imposed a tax on mortgages. The Tuscan
budget for 1850 is fixed at 35,000,000 francs.

lying at anchor at the mouth of the harbour since the
morning. I learn from the Austrian Consul at
Athens, that on the 29 h of January thirty English
vessels entered the harbour cf the Piraeus, and
commanded that all the Greek vessels lying there

English steamers to SAlamis."—Wiener Zeitung,
