Persia is the closing of the Warsaw confer
ence between the monarchs of Russia
Prussia, and Austria. What was done at
this conference no one seems to know,
though special pains were taken by those
participating therein to assure the Emperor
Napoleon that nothing inimical to the
interests of France was intended. The
Opinion Rationale, Paris journal of con-
siderable influence, maintains, however, that
the meeting wasa conspiracy against France,
to result Immediately in an Italian crusade
against Italy by Austria with the assistance
of her new allies. ] a .yy' --Ettv I-1
/ The voting, in Sicily and Naples, for
annexation to Sardinia, indicates remarka-
BILE unanimity. Universal suffrage was
permitted. In the city of Naples $4,000
votes were cast for annexation. At Pal
ermo, in Sicily, there were 1922 votes in
favor of annexation, to 20 against it.
One of the members of the Neapolitan
deputation, who went to present an address
to the King of Sardinia, gives the following
as the language used by his majesty on the
occasion:
am not actuated by motives of personal
ambition, but we must constitute an Italy. 1t
/ matters little to me whether am king of A.
DOC, 900 or "a, 100000 OF people; but it is of
great Importance that a people belonging to
the same race and speaking the same language
should have the same country, and that that
country should be independent. If we only
| wish it we can be great people. Austria con-
| tinues to threaten me. Not long since re.

the French which was full Of passion. / care
| little for it. Austria let slip the favorable mo.
ment for attacking me. She is preparing for
| next spring, but then, with yOdr assistance, l
shall have forty thousand men in arms, and
Italians, thank God, still know how to fight.
The Pope himself now writes to me with
kindness. The powers of Europe are displeased;
| they are pouting, but none of them except
| Austria threatens. We are acting like persons
| in our homes. Europe will at last recognize
that we have justice and right on our side.
l am satisfied with Garibaldi; he may be little
capricious, but Italy has no nobler son. I have
several times offered to give him artillery, but
| he refused the offer. He thinks he can take
| triots, gentlemen, that shall not cease to be
| for Italy what l have been for my little Pied
mont. / shall perform my duty as king and
soldier; let US all do our duty as Italians. Bear
in mind that we do not yet possess the key of
| our house: but from this day forward we can
say that Italy exists. Let US hope and perse.

The Journal dies Debats says that the Brit.
ish Legion is Immediately attached to Gar.
ibaldi. Garibaldi reviewed the men. In
the name Of Italy be thanked England, in
the person of her volunteers, for the great
sacrifices she had made in men, arms, and
money, to uphold the cause of national in
dependence, and concluded by saying it was
the proudest moment of bis life that he had
under his command, and for his support, a
legion of the free children of England.
The text of the Russian note to Sardinia,
in which the Russian Minister to Turin is
ordered forthwith to demand his passports
and quit Turin with all the personnel of
the Legation, is published. In it Prince
Gortchakof assumes high tone toward
Sardinia, and denounces her actions. The
note after referring to the annexation of
Naples and the entrance of Sandman troops
into Naples, concludes as follows:
By these acts the Sandman government no
longer allows US to consider it as a stranger to
the movement which has upset the Peninsula.
1t takes upon itself all their responsibility, and
puts itself into fragrant contradiction with the
right of nations. The necessity it alleges of
combating anarchy could not justify it, since
it only throws itself on the path of the revolu.
ton to gather its heritage not to arrest its pro.
gress and repair its iniquities. Pretexts of this
nature are not admissible. This is no question
merely of Italian interests, but of a general
interest common to all governments. It is q
question of those eternal laws without which
no social order, no peace, no security could
exist in Europe. I'll 9.i u b3lao
His majesty the Emperor deems it impossi.
BILE that his Legation should any longer reside
where it may have to witness acts which his
conscience and convictions reprove. His impe.
rial majesty is compelled to put an end to the
functions which you fulfill at the court of Sar

you should ask for your passports, and instant.
