Fourth That the representatives of the
Italian States should be invited, Immediately
after the assembling of the Congress, to take
their seats with the representatives of the
great powers absolutely as at Laybach.
France, Russia and Prussia gave their adhe-
sion, but Austria has refused. France, il is
said, consented to the appointment of Com
mission, requiring only that it be composed of
diplomatic persons.
FRANCE.-The London Herald's Paris cor
respondent says the preparations for war arc
pushed forward with feverish rapidity, not
outstanding the profession of willingness to
disarm. ... .
The London Times Paris correspondent says
that there is no cessation of armaments in all
quarters of France. Masses of troops continue
to concentrate at Lyons. A French army is
to be collected on the Rhine frontier. Numor-
Gus cavalry regiments are already marching.
PRUssIA.-The mission of the Arch Duke
Albrecht to Berlin is said to have been entirely
successful, military convention with Russia
having been signed, by which the latter en-
cages to send to the Rhine $4,000 men under
the Prince Regent, in case the negotiations
fail. This force will be increased by the con-
tingent force of Bavaria to $4,000 strong, and
the Eighth Federal Army Corpse of 1000 men.
while other contingents will be held in readi-
ness to march at command.
The newspapers of Prussia are said to have
been requested to publish nothing connected
with these preparations for war or the move
ments of troops.
A emi-official Prussian Gazette publishes an
article stating that the assembling of the pro-
posed Congress having become more doubtful,
and the state of affairs having assumed most
serious aspect the Prussian government is in
duced to think that it is a proper time to make
proposals to the Federal Diet for the purpose
of taking measures for their own interest and
safety.
The Government received these proposals by
ordering corps d'armee of 70 900 to be placed
on war footing. These measures are of a
purely defensive character. -...
SARDINIA.-The Turin correspondent of the
London Times, says that Count Cayour must
fall if war is not declared, and such m event
would possibly be the signal Of an insurrection
in various parts of Italy, and perhaps serious
disturbances in Piedmont where %, 900 Italian
volunteers confidently await hostilities. The
steamers on Lake Maggiore with one exception
have been placed at the disposal of the Gov
eminent.
NAPLEs.-The King of Naples still sur
vived.
RoME.- The Government of Rome, IL ia
said, has sent a private circular to the Bish-
ops, urging them to collect men for two le-
gions Of troops. This attempt has been un
successful, Notwithstanding the large bounty
offered.
TURKEY. - The appearance of war has
aroused fears of insurrection. Tho reported
Russian armaments in Besarabia are con-
frmed. 1t is intended to assemble 100 900
men in Georgia. " t
