and for the whole OF Italy,

rem, have joyfully fought and joyfully died, and
now il is in your name that we open the Joy OF
our hearts before God, who has given us the
victory"
The address then goes on to express the idea
which animates the whole of the inhabitants
of Lombardy that the war shall not terminate
until the last Austrian shall have crossed the
Alps. The Nation will then. il says, be CALI
ed on to choose freely its form of government.
"a letter from Rome, says the same journal,
describes the great enthusiasm which reigns
in that city. A complete war against the abso-
lutism had been declared. and regular crusade
organized against the oppressors of the liberty
and independence of Italy. All the troops had
marched towards the frontier, as well as numer-
Gus detachments of volunteers. A subscrip-
ton had been entered into for the equipment
of the latter. They were offered Is bayoques
a day as pay, but they refused, saving they only
wanted bread. The Pope sent 80 900 francs to
the funds; all the religious orders, the nobility,
the me rchants, and the cardinals also subscrib-
ed. The people assembledin the public squares
where subscriptions were received; the men
gave their watches, the women their earrings,
and chains, and indeed, every ornament they
possessed"
The same enthusiasm is said to reign in the
provinces. Gen. Durando, it was expected,
would, in few days, have $4,000 men under
his orders These volunteers will be concen-
trated at Bologna, to be ready to march into
Lombardy. Our brothers OF Italy need succor.

fields of Lombardy by the side of these of
Piedmont and Tuscany. The Jesuits are lcav-
ing every day; they will soon all have quilted.
Ii is said the Austrian garrison has evacuated
the citadel of Ferrara. The capitals perfectly

the troops. do all the duty. The late ministry
work admirably. Verona, The great strategic
key to Lombardo- Venitian kingdom, appears
to have become useless. The people have ris-
ell and made themselves masters of the town.
The troops have retired into the forts. The
viceroy has been blockaded by the people IN
his palace, round which they have placed an
immense quantity of faggots, threatening to
burn him and his family if a single shot is fred
from the forts against the town. Ii is proba-
BILE, however, that he has escaped from that
place, for other accounts state that he has been
taken prisoner at Riva.
The triumphs of Venice cannot fail 20 have a
powerful effect on the other provinces of the
the State. In addition to the places already
mentioned as having risen, all the Frioul has
asserted its independence. Venice has decar-
ed that il made no pretensions to its ancient
sovereignty, but that in procaiming a republic
it only intended it as provisional measure,
and that il will unite itself to the kingdom OF
Italy when it shall be duly constituted.
A letter from Naples, of the 22d ult., says
"At the news of the events at Vienna, the crew
of an Austrian frigate in our roads mutinied,
|uSu0far nag AT the crew were venitians.
They sent four of their Austrian officers out OF
the ship. 1t is stated that Prince Swsrtzenburg
when the people at Naples tore down and
burnt the Austrian arms over the door of his
hotel, placed all his most valuable property on
board this ship, where it now remains

at st. Petersburg and received with the greatest

String of France, soon crossed the German
frontier, and spread themselves in every direc-
ton with an audacity which has gained new
force in proportion to the concessions of the
Governments. This devastating plague has at
last attacked our allies the Empire Of Austria
and the Kingdom of Prussia, and to-day, in its
blind fury, menaces our Russia-that Russia
which God has confided to our care. But
heaven forbid that this should be. Faithful to
the example handed down from our ancestors,
having FIRST invoked the aid of the Omnipotent,
we are ready to encounter our enemies from
whatever side they may present themselves,
and, without spasing our own persons, we will
know how, indissolubly united to our holy
country, to defend the honor of the Russian
name and the inviolabllity of our territory.
'We are convinced that every Russian, that
every ore of our faithful subjects will respond
with Joy to the call of his sovereign, Our an
cient war cry-for our faith, our sovereign, and
our country, will once again lead US on the path
of victory, and then, with sentiments OF humble |
gratitude, as now with feelings of holy hope,
we will all cry with one voice, God is on our
side. Understand this, We people, and submit,
for God is on our side. Given at St. Peters
burg 18th March, in the year of grace, 1913, and
