hourly increasing, and there had been great rejoc-

other great reform has been achieved in Rome, by

Italian Peninsula as being $4,000 900, of which

about 100000 are under the dominion Of Aus

Italy possesses all the great elements of national
prosperity, and, with wise and vigorous political
/ organization, there is nothing wanted to complete
her earthly advantages. So long as she advances
with frmness and moderation, she has nothing to
! fear from the disappointed policy of her ancient
adversary.

numerical dsproportion the federal contingency of
the twelve and half Cantons amounts to $4,000,

averted: it would be a disgrace to civilized Emope
not to interpose to prevent gallant and simply
good people from destroying each other about so
really unimporant question as forms the basis OF
the dispute.

scripts, partly it is said, to meet r havoc which
it is feared the cholera will make in the army. No
doubt existed in st. Petersburgh nat the journey
of the Car and the imperial family to Moscow was

dicous movement, for later nws represents the
disease as having reached ODESSA, and to be adj
vancing rapidly towards Mo,cow. The French
Government not only consider the arrival of the
cholera in France as problble, but it has with
praiseworthy foresight ortered measures to mti-
gate It's severity, if not to stay It's progress. The
attention of English physicians has also been turn
ed to the subject TIL, last accounts from Constan-
tlnople state that the cholera had increased at Ire
bisonde, where, out Of $50 cases, there had been
$50 deaths The official physician reported that

striking facts with respect to Russian manufactures.
The great variety of articles which were exposed
for sale, and the admirable order which was main
tanned at the exchange of goods very much exceed
ed his expectation. Mr. Golden visited several of
the manufacturing districts in Russia, where he
was much surprised and gratfed with the industry
and skill of the workmen, principally native pea
SAINTS. At Wochna he found silk goods manufactured
III very good style 10 all extent of several hum
dred thousand roubles annually. At Moscow several
manufactures excited his establishment and adnra-
ton. Mr.. G. is said to have pronounced the calico
printing mills of M. Gutschkow one of the most
perfect which he had ever seen in its organization.
In another establishment, that of NJ Procherov, the
care bestowed upon the health, morals, and ntruc-
ton OF the children employed was very gratifying
The mills in Moscow appear to be conducted with
grea skill and order, and with very admirable
combination of the various divisions of the manu-.
factory. Cloth weaving appears to be in avery
favorable, IN fact in very advanced state in Rus

branch OF industry to the highest perfection. thas

continent, but she has not hitherto expected to find
them in Russia.
