| The Revised Constitution-At the sitting of the
Assembly the 29h ut the first order of the day
| was the demand for leave to prosecute the Able
| de Lamennais, which was eventually rejected. NJ
| Woirhaye then assembled the tribune and read in
the absence of NJ. Marrast the revised project of
| the Constitution.
The preamble had been completely changed |
France, by adopting republican form of govern
ment, declared to have assumed, in the face of
the world, the initiative of progress and civiliZa-
ton. The right to labor was suppressed, and re-
placed by article providing that the State should
procure labor to unemployed workmen, within the |
limits of its resources. The constitution had under
gone some change In various respects, though the
parts relating TO election, representation, liberty of
the press ETC., are essentially the same. One of
the principal changes made is that of allowing the
Government, for the time being, to proclaim mar
tia law when it thinks fit or, in other words, TO
suspend both constitution and laws at its pleasure
The chapters relative to the Ministerial De part
ment, the Council of State, the Internal Admins
tratiOn, the Judiciary Power, had undergone no |
material alteration. Justice is to be rendered graft
uously, in the name of the French people, and all
pOIILlcdI OIfenceS are 10 De tried by Jury, Who |
in future, will fix the amount the fine damages
incurred by the offender Justices Of the Peace |
who, in the first project to be elected by the
citizens, in their respective DISTRICTS to be ap.
pointed by the President. Military substitutes
prohibited. The public force being essentially |
Obedient, it is declared that armed corps can |
deliberate. The Legion of Honor is maintained, |
but its statutes shall be revised and placed in har-
mOny with democratic and republican principles.
Miscellaneous InteUigence- Charles Albert has
made formal request to the French Government
for its Intervention and aid, declaring that he is
ready to enter upon new campaign, not for the |
purpose of ACKNOWLEDGEMENT or to increase his own |
domnions, but in order to insure the entire liberty
of Italy, and to free the peninsula from the yoke of
Austria. His Minister, in making his demand, |
assured the French Government that by the end of
September Charles Albert would have an Army of |
100000 men ready TO commence the war.
La PreSSe states positively that the French Gov
eminent has refused to comply with the demand of |
its Intervention in favor Of the Republic of Venice,
made in its name by NJ. Tommasseo. The French |
Government declined interfering, alleging, among |
other motives, that partial Intervention in favor
of Venice would only complcate the difficulties of |
the general Italian question
The PGtrIe says it has received a letter from NJ. |
Dumoulin, an old officer of the Emperor Napoleon,
stating that it is the intention of Louis Napoleon,
if again elected, to accept the mandate. NJ. Du- |
moulin adds that Louis Napoleon has announced |
his intention not to return to France until after |
new election.
Not one-tenth it is said of the men comprising |
the late national workshops have left Paris. The |
remainder continue idle in the capital. !
1t is said that Gen. Cavaignac has attached to his
person, for protection, guard, consisting of the |
police agents who were ordered to watch over the
safety of Louis Philippe when he appeared in public.
1t is said that Gen. Cavagnac, on hearing of the
escape of CaussidieFe and Louis Blanc said, g So |
much the better; it is difficulty the less in
way'
The trials of the parties accused of the Insurrec-
ton of the 18th of May and the invasion of the |

MN Barbes, Blanqui, Raspai etc. will, it is now

ssting of 40 of the insurgents of June, was sent

NORTHERN ITALY.
The Italian GueriLLdS-EngGgemen Jour
nal des Debats of Monday, contains the following |
extracts of letters from Turin: The band of Gene
raj Garibadi has thrown itself into the districts of
the Province of Come on the borders of the Canton
of TessinO. After having entered warren, and I'M
der the inunctions of the Lombardian Committee,
presided by NJ. Maysini, proclaimed the Re-
public, planted the tree of liberty and published
a violent proclamation against Charles Albert,
he retired at the approach Of an Austrian force,
and there is every reason to believe that he will be
compelled to lay down his arms and take refuge in
Switzerland. Marshal Radetsky, after having col
lected vast quantity of warlike stores at Milan,
has removed his headquarters to Lodi, leaving or
ders with the Governor to act with the greatest
prOmphtude against Milan at the first attempt at
any revolutionary movement. The same letters
from Turin which give us the above details, state
positively that the Duke of Genoa, the second son
of the King, has refused the Of Sicily, which
has been offered him by the Siciian Parliament.
Garribaldi, according to advices dated Lago Mag
giore, 18th ult, at Varese intending TO effect
junction with Col. Aspice and Gen. Griffin, by
the mountains of the Lake of Como The popula-
ton of those districts hate the Austrans intensely.
Later accounts of Garribaldi mention his having
entered Como On the 18th, 5000 men Of the Ital-
ian troops had Quilted the position Of the SteIvio
had entered Switzerland, and laid down their arms
at the frontier There only remain on this side of
Alps, Aspice and Griffin, who have still large
bodv of men under their orders
