The Independent of Turin publishes an article in

friendly relations with the French Government,
and, in the course of its remarks, it says: awe
strongly oppose the opinion entertained by some
persons that liberal government cannot be allied
with government based on different institutions,
and who, by insults to that government, place in
danger the close friendship which prevails between
the two countries. We are convinced that the
French alliance is of great Importance, not only to
Piedmont, but to the common country, Italy; and
that the isolation to which we should be condemned
without that alliance would be fatal. We express
this opinion with the greatest confidence"

THE LATEST.
WEDNESDAY. April THE money article of The
Times of Wednesday says the quotation of gold al
Paris is about per mile discount, and the short ex
change on London is %. 10 per Fl sterling. In
comparing these rates with the English Mint price
of f3 lis 10%d. per for standard gold. it ap
pears that gold is about LILO dearer in Paris than in
London; also. about 4-l0 dearer in London than in
Hamburg. The course OF exchange at New orE
on London for bills at 60 days sight is about l07 pei
cent. which, when compared with the mint par be-
tween the two countries shows that the exchange is
against England. After making allowance for the
charges of transport and difference of interest, the
present rate is Just low enough to admit OF
the expectation of gold from this country. This
