ITALY.

A letter from Verona of she 25th ult. says—" The
first communications by means of the electric tele-
graph bet wean this place and Vienna have just taken
place. The line between Verona and Venice• has
hewn for some days at work, and that between Verona
and Milan will be soon completed. Thus, in less
than six months, there have been established in the
Lombardo-Venetian kingdom, and in the southern
Tyrol, 240 miles of electric telegraph, the wires of
which, cased in gutta percha, are buried in the ground
about two feet. These communications are speedily
to be extended to Mantua, as well as from Venice to
Trieste."

The Statuto of Florence has been suspended for
having in its leader of the 29th ult. " insinuated
that the Tuscan Government directs the public ad-
ministration, not according to the rules-of the exist-
ing laws, but by the aid of a material force."
We mentioned a few days ago that the magistracy
of Florence had voted by a large majority an address
to the Grand Duke, expressing their regret at the
late decrees, and recommending that the Constitu-
tion be again put in vigour. In consequence of this
vote, the Gontalonie re of Florence has been dismissed
by a Grand Ducal decree of the 29th ult., from which
we extract the following passages ;
" Whereas Art. 60 of the communal regulations
debar communal councils from voting upon matters
not concerning their attributions as determined by
the said regulations . . . .; and whereas the Gonfa-
loniere has the initiative of all motions in the com-
munal sittings . . . .; and whereas the Gonfaloniere
of Rorence cannot plead ignorance of the irre-
gularity of the motion he proposed to the commu-
nal council of that city, not only because he pro-
posed a vote contrary to the positive prescriptions of
the said Article 60, but also because the Minister of
the Census, and actuary of the said council, 'reminded
him of it at the time, and because he could
not but be acquainted with the maxim already
adopted by Government in a similar case rerating to
the municipality of Massa Marittima . . . . • we have
decreed and decree :—Art-1. The 'Chevalier Übal-
dino Peruzzi ceases to bold the office of Gonfaloniere
of the municipality of Florence. Art. 2. The Cheva-
lier Carlo Leonetti is named Gonfaloniere of Florence
fur the four years ending the 31st December, 1853."
The Corriere Mercantile, after quoting the above
decree, adds that on learning the dismissal of their
Gonfaloniere, all the members of the Municipal Council
had immedi ttely given in their resignations, and that
people were flocking in crowds to inscribe their names
at the door of the late Gonteloniere. The Piedmontese
Gazette quotes letters from Florence, of the 30th ult.,
stating that several other municipalities of Tuscany
having followed the example of that of Florence in
voting addresses for the re-establishment of the
Constitution, the Cabinet has addressed menacing
circulars to all the Communes, enjoining to them to
abstain henceforward from such sets.

the gathering-of marabersat-ther.loakey Club so large as
usual, though amongst titoie who did- attend were most
of the principal sapporters o 4 racing. The uncertain
state of the weather, the absence of a very interesting
programme, and, Above alt, the neglect of the municipality
and the Northern Railway Company to advertise the
• races sufficiently, were alleged to be the causes of this
seeming indifference of the public. The Minister of
Finance was present.
