ITALY.

AJACCIO, APRIL 3.--The iialian refugees, whom we
have here, are in the greatest distress—they are without
food ; fifteen, we hear, have just arrived from Rome ; they
have been thrown on our coast in a dreadful state of
destitution. They excite compassion, but that is all.
As for distrust, why should they inspire auy ? In
truth, they are but very little to be feared ; for Naples
or the rest of Italy, it is indeed very doubtful whether they
will ever be tempted to show themselves there again. The
trial by jury answers to the hopes of the friends of that great
institution. The sentences hitherto pronounced have given
general satisfaction, not only to the public, but to the ma-
gistrates and the lawyers. This happy essay will have great
influence on the civilization of Corsica. The jury and the
national guard will, in time, make Corsica one of the good
departments of France.
ANCONA, MARCII 26.—1 n consequence of the occupa-
tion of part of the United Italian Provinces by the Austrian
troops, and the declaration of their commander, that he in-
tended to take possession of the remaining provinces, the
persons who bad assumed the provisional government of
those provinces, finding themselves involved in an unequal
and hopeless contest, thought it advisable to make proposi-
tions, with the view of sparing the effusion of blood, and
guarding against further disorders. They accordingly de-
puted General Armandi, Count Cesar Bianchetti, and two
others, to treat with Cardinal Benvcnuti, the Pope's Legate-
a-latere. The negotiation soon terminated in restoring the
provinces (in the words of the treaty) " to the arias of the
Holy Father." The following are the conditions :

,of the Provisional Government of the United
