News from Italy.

New YORK, Jan. 13-Tne Post says
Late news by private letter and otherwise
from Italy gives information of an extend
ed agitation there on the Venitian question
Garibaldi has issued proclamation from
Caperia urging the people to be faithful to
the leadership of Victor Emanuel. The
italian army is permeated with the idea of
a speedy war for the deliverance of Venice.
During the past winter; the opening of the
spring of 1864 has been looked to as the
signal for the beginning of the final effort
to make Italy free in fact as well as in
name, and the next few months may bring
us the most exciting intelligence from Ven
ice and Rome.

Governor Parl.er,s Message.

New YORK, Jan. 13.-The message of
Governor Parker, of New Jersey, delivered
to-day. discusses the question of pacifica-
tion. lie says the war should be prosecuted
by all constitutional means to destroy the
power of the rebellion, and the re-establish-
ment Of the national authority over the
whole country.
He disapproves of the plan of the Presi-
dents amnesty proclamation, arguing for
conciliatory measures and restoration of
the State Governments as they existed be-
fore the rebellion.
He disapproves of the emancipation proc
lamation, as an obstacle in the way of
peace. The war should be prolonged no
longer than is necessary to effect its legiti-
mate object. and the Governor argues at
length that the old Union and the old con-
stitution alone are its legitimate objects.
