Through the same channel which some
weeks since enabled us to be the first to

learn that neitherthese discussions, northe

ecution OF that measure. On the 10Th De-
ccrnber the line comprised $4,000 men
other troops were on their route for the

greatest political importance, that three
extraordinary conferences of state ensued,
and that orders were Immediately after
given for reinforcing the Austrian troops
in Italy.
