the United States will be crowded with emigrants;
many of them take with them large sums Of money
than twelve months, unless something be done.

AUSTRIA AND IrAtY.-The most important intel

il will be remembered that war was impending In
the north Of Italy, and II was anticipated that etheI
the Austrians or Piedmontese would immediately
croes tho Ticino boundary. In q brief fortnight
Charles Albert has fought and been conquered, and
is now 40 abdicntoi King, and has taken refuge in
either Madrid or Lisbon.
The Ausirisns passed the Ticino simultaneously
with the Pcdmontose who rapidly fell back and three
successive battles cnsued. In the latter on ths
plains Of vercelli, the Austrans were completely
victorious The last battle, on the Path ult., ths
main body Of the Austriane, some $4,000 strong en-
countered Charles Albert ncA. Moraro. The Pied.
montese appeared to have been Of moro than equal
force
Tho battle was fought with terrible obstlnscy, 81.

Italians shrunk from the contest. II 10 said that
Charles Albert behaved with the most distinguished
bravery, bu, finding the day was going against him,

from our standing preposifus:
The National Wing was founded for the purpose

or affection.
Its politics are those Of the administration of Gen
