Affairs in Italy
The Paris correspondent of the London
Spectator says there is still hitch in the
peace egotiatons-.\u Austria persists on
keeping an Austrian army in Vcnctia.-
When this difficulty has been surmountcd,
the treaty will be signed by Austria and
France, and the Congress will be held at
Brussels.
The London lIcralds Paris corrcspon-
u,nt says
The report of France and Austria alone
signing the treaty of peace is corrol grated
by private dispatches, and unless orders to
the contrary are received from Biarritz tho
fact will no doubt be officially made known
before many days.

powerfully begun, and who, assured of the
gratitude of Italy, and seeing the modcra-
ton which has characterized your rcsolu-

will recognise that in the Romagna the
mere hope of a national government sufIi-

your numerous volunteers arrived during
