THE RECQeNITIoN OF ITALY BY RUSSIA
AND PRUsSIA-THE FRENCH OC-
CUPATION or ROME.

The following is the very latest news by tht
Asia, received by way OF Queenstown by tele
graph:
The oficial Dresden journal publishes letteI
from Vienfh asserting, on reliable authority
that the Cabinet at Turin has, m condition o.
the recognition Of the kingdom Of Italy By
Russia and Prussia, renounced any further en-
terprise aiming at taking possession Of Rome
and Venetia.
The same letter asserts that France and Eng
land have guaranteed the sta'u quo Of the
actual possessions Of Italy 10 the Cabinet Of
Turin, In opposition to the revolutionary party
should II attempt any insurrectIon.
THE FRENCiI OCCUPATION OF ROME.
The official correspondence In relation 10 the
French occupation Of Rome has been laid be-
fore Parliament. Il appears that N. Thouve-
mel said to Lord Cowcy, the British Ambassa-
dor in Paris: "Why are we TO be asked 10
give up Rome and the patrimony Of St. Peter
to the King Of ItalyH The utmost that can be
expected Of us would be the restoration OF
Rome to the Romans"
Lord Cowley sent report OF this converse
tion to Earl Russell, whose reply Is pointed:
I'M. Thouvenel asks: why are we TO be
asked 10 give up Rome and the patrimony Of
St Peter to the King Of Italy, The utmost that
can be expected OF us would be the restoration
Of Rome TO the Romans This Is an objection
rather captious than conclusive. The grand
objection made TO the evacuation Of Rome by
the French troops, "a stated frequently by N.
Billault, ~ the parliamentary organ Of the
French Government, is that anarchy would
prevail"
In q concluding dispatch, Earl Russell sum
marises the result Of the discussions, which
he thinks have been attended with considerable
advantages lie says:
m. Thouvenel no longer speaks Of the dill.
Guilty Of persuading the Italian Government TO
accept OF such conditions as her Majesty's Gov.
ernment had suggested. Nor Is there any
question Of forcing the Pope 10 abandon his
temporal power, and remain IN Italy as the sub.
ject of another sovereign. The whole question
Is, whether the Pope, having lost ROmagna, the
Marches and Umbria, should retain the whole
Of the territory now occupied by France, or
whether the French troops should occupy for
the Pope only hs Patrimony Of st. Peter, in
cluding the Vatican. Setting aside oil differ
ence between a Protestant and Roman Catholic
sovereign, IL IN manifest that the principle thus
upheld h al variance with the principles main
tsined everywhere else by France as well as
Great Britain. Rome IL foreign territory; the
Romans are 10 have nothing, and foreign troops

ment. This system can hardly be of long du
ration; il IL too directly opposed to the maxims
Of international law and the wishes OF the Ital.
ian people"
Earl Russell, deeming the information he
has obtained al! that can at present be had by
such discussion, does not wish Il 10 be contin
u-d, but he sends an arrow into the French
camp rs he rstirss from the subject:
"On the other hand, the French Governiir,, 4
must not make { n reproach 10 ih. government
of Italy that the southern provinces are not in
state Of tranquility, while the French flag
protects the Pope In maintaining sanctuary
