ITALY-It is stated that a collective vote of

the memorandum presented by Count Cuyour
and Willamarine to the Chambers shows that
Austria, being at conference, refused to discuss
the condition of Italy. Sardinia is the only
State that demands the cooperation of England
and France IN carrying out the reforms, and
shows that Austrian occupation is opposed to
the interests of Italy and Europe and contrary
to the treaty, humanity, and justice, and final

France to unite with Sardinia in the applica-

IMPORTANT FROM KANSAS.
The Mob before Lawrence.
CHICAGO. Nav 81

CHICAGO, May 81.
Tho dates from Leavehworth, Kansas, are to
Saturday night. The correspondence of the
Tribune states that to-day "wednesday is
fixed for the attack on Lawrence. There is a
general reign of terror in the Territory. Two
pieces of cannon crossed the river at Atchison
destined for Lawrence. Bufords company of
militia were furnished U. S. arms by Gov.
Shannon. The Free State men are in want o.
arms and ammunition. Donaldson has pro-
claimed his intention to make clean work this
time. Robinson was still at Lexington on
Monday morning.
A gentleman has arrived here with seven
packages of evidence from the committee.
The correspondent of the Jefferson (Mo)
Enquirer states that petitions are in circula-
ton in the border counties praying for the i'm
mediate removal of Col. Sumner.
Brown, the editor of the Herald of Free
dom, writes that mob entered the hotel at
Kansas City and dragged off man, supposed
to be himself They discovered their mistake
and returned and demanded him of the pro-
prietor who refused to deliver him up A
company of Michigan emigrants entered the
hotel to protect the occupants The mob is
still surrounding the hotel. The letter is
close. There is no authentic intelligence con-
corning his fate since his capture.
IN re- ST. LOUIS, May 81.
The Democrats Kansas correspondent un-
der date of the 18th writes that 80 to 100 men
are encamped near Lecompton.
The people of Lawrence sent a note to Col
Summer, asking him to station body of troops
in the vicinity to prevent the mob from pro-
ceeding to saugunary eXtremities He de-
clined, saying thrt he had no power to move
without orders
Mr.. Cox, of awrence, waited on Marshal
Donaldson to ascertain if anything could be
done peaclbly to prevent his monster posse
from entering in.
The Marshal said these demands must be
complied with previous to consenting MOI to
enter Lawrence with all his force
LIST. Every man against whom process
has been issued should be surrendered.
I'd. All munitions Of war in Lawrence are
to be delivered up.
Sd. The citizens of Lawrence should pledge
| themselves to obey implicitly the present en-
actments of Kansas, test oaths, taxas aud all.
| Upon the receipt of this the citizens held a
public meeting drew up a letter to the Mar
shall, stating that he and every person acting
under him, would be allowed to execute le-
gal process against the inhabitants of Lawrence
and if called upon would serve as posse in
making arrests, that tnere Woulu not now, nor
at any future time be any resistance to law
and they only awaited an opportunity to testi-
| fly their fidelity to the Union and constitution,
that they claimed to be law-abiding, order
loving citizens and asked to be protected by
the constituted authorities.
The purport Of the Marshal's answer was,
he did not believe in the promises of the peo-
pie of Lawrence. that he regarded them reb-
els and traitors, and that they should know
| his demand when he came.

UP TOWN ITEMS.
REPORTED BY UP TOWN, ESQ.


SERIOUS AccIDENT.--Whil Mr.. Weight was
driving into town his wife, in two horse
wagon, yesterday morning, his horses took
fright at some object in the road, and became
unmanageable. Just as the wagon was about
to be precipitated over small bank of about
three feet vertical height, Mrs. Weight at
tempted to jump out; her DRESS however,
caught on the body, and she was dragged
back as the wagon rolled over, striking her
head forcibly against the iron band of the
'wheel-hub, cutting an ugly cash, from which
che was insensible for some time. With the
assistance of some neighbors Mr.. Weight was
soon extricated from his unpleasant situation,
and his wife taken to house near by, where
she was properly care for.
ST- We are happy to learn that Mr.. Ed
amund Maidlow, our faithful old County Com
missioner-now ftsrlctus o9fciO--is considered
entirely out Of danger.

ments in Lamasco, is the new steam Touring
mill, now in the process of erection, by Gle

City Us. Chartsc Dramsettler, OJstracting the
Street.-Charles forgetful of his own interests,
and regardless of the welfare OF the city, vio-
lated by an act of omission, one of those me-
'do-persic laws which the city fathers have
caused to be indeIibly inscribed on the twelve
tables of the city of Evansville, which all
good and bad citizens arc presumed to know
by heart. Charles had left his wagon and two
horses there to attached standing in the
street, in an unlawful manner Marshal Ev-
ans had previously warned Mr.. Dramsettler.
but Mr.. D. didn't profit by his admonition,
owing, perhaps, to TeutoRic ears being unfa-
miliarized with Anglo Saxon. He was conse
quently taken before Recorder Mills, who
case made and provided. Fined so cents and
costs.

war Commenced in Kansas.

ST.. LOUIS, May %.
The Republican of this morning contains
the following.
We learn from Beaverton, who left Frank
lin K T. last night at g o'clock, that war had
commenced.
AS Mr.. Cosgrove and DR.. Brannon were on
their way to Franklin K T., from Lecompton
they were hailed by party of abolitionists
who enquired who they were and where they
were going On being answered the comman~
der of the squad turned to his men and asked
their motto. Their reply was "Sharps Rifles"
and they Immediately brought their guns to
bear, and Brannon was wounded in the arm
but Cosgrove sent ball whirlng through the
brain of their leader. The balance fed.
An Abolitionist was shot at Blanton's bridge
yesterday morning Mr.. Bremerton was pur-
sued several miles by armed men and only es-
capped by the speed of his horse.
When the L. B. Lucas left Kansas report
pairing to eyacuate Lawrence and had called
upon Col. Sumner in command at Fort LeaY-
enworth to protect their property
Kickapoo, Levenworth City, Doniphan and
AtchiSon were almost entirely destroyed, the
men having probably obeyed the call of the
Marshal to aid at Lawrence.

DEPARTURE OF THE NICARAGUANs.-Col
Jack Allen, with about two hundred men, left
on the Sultana last night for New Orleans,
from whence they will embark for Nicaragua.
The force consisted altogether Of young men,
mostly from twenty to twenty-five years of
age, and they were in the finest spirits. Col.
Allen will get reinforcements at Evansville,
Paducah, and in fact all other points along the
river, so that by the time he reaches New Or
leans he will have about five hundred men.
Schneider's fine brass band volunteered and
enlivcned the departure with martial music.
The band were entertained by Captains Wales
and Ilarig. Col. Allen and gentleman from
Baltimore made short and patriotic speeches,
and the boat left her moorings amid the shouts
of an immense crowd which had congregated
at the wharf Il Lou. Jour-, 22d
The Sultaua did not reach this point till a
late hour night before last. An effort was
made to get up company here to join Col.
Allen, but the time was too short to render
the effect successful. We believe several per-
sons went from here on the Sultana, but
whether with the intention of joining Col. AL
len we do not know. We were not down to
the Sutana, but understand that Col. Aliens
company were going it strong while the boat
lay in port, and bad whisky was predomina-
ting. The company was composed principally
OF mere boys, and did not number one hun

One Of our Henderson visitors OH the occa-

the company left, assures us that the party
were highly delighted with their visit here,
and with the courtesies extended them-that
they enjoyed themselves very much, and feel
that Evansville has more than reciprocated
Henderson hospitality. These compliments
ry expressions are his-not ours As re-
turn, he is authorized to extend an invitation
to our young people to visit Henderson next
Wednesday evening, on the occasion of Sup
per to be given by the ladies Of, we believe,
the Presbyterian congregation. We are as
sured they will be made heartily welcome.
and that the ladies of Henderson will be de-
lighted to see all who will come. As some
may think there is no room in Henderson large
enough to hold a mass convention of the la
dies and gentlemen of that place, and nu-
merous delegation from Evansville, we may
say that the room to be used on this occasion
is about 100 feet by nearly 100 feet Great
preparations are making to render this occa-
sion charming one in every repect, and we
hope Evansville beauty and ehivalry, the doe:
