CONNOR. The SPEAKER announced, amidst much laughter, that he had received a letter from Mr. Henry, the Bowstreet magistrate, stating that ne had convicted Mr. F. O'Connor on a charge of assaulting a police constable, and sentenced him to seven days imprisonment.  Accounts from R )rne of lie 31st ult. state :  Au,triaa ioverument has ju,t cff-'red to the Poritificial Government such great facilities for th.., creation of a I{ roan army, that that measure may now be cor,st.li red as definitively decide.: on. The effective strength of the Pontifical troops was settled by the treaties of 1815 at 20 000 men. The following is the plan in whien this matter wilt be carried out. All tho existing corps will be disbanded and remodelled; two regiments of a foreign legion will be recruited for out of the country. Austria lends the town of Como as the centre of formation for this force ; each of these regiments will be 2,500 song. These 5,000 men will none of them be Italians, and as far es can be, Swiss, Austrian, and Bavarian. Baden will 251.0 furnish its contingent. Two R.-mati or Italian) regiments, each of 3500 men, will be formed from the remnants of the regiment of Geards and other troops were in course of organlaition. The gendarmerie will be carried up to a strength of 5.000 men. 4 000 of whom are already enrollet!. A battalion of loot chasseurs of from 1,200 to 1.500 atroeg, a regiment of dragoons, and one or two brigml!Es of artillery, will complete this force of 20,000 men. This plan is certainly well conceived as to the obj,ct which it is sou ht t i attein. The 5,000 gen darnies. the 5000 Swiss and Germans, and the •netalion of cha.seura, coma:oided by lkl. Alderon-Po-I.)mhs, an oflic r devoted to the Holy See, will form an eff etive force, which will ensure the fidelity of the two native regiments, and will permit the Pontifical Government to protect itself with its own troops. Unfortunately the ferinatioti and the support of this army will entail fresh charges on the treasury. Tti, ne.cessary outlay is estimated at about 2,000,000 of which ii :tuc, übont the amount of the deficit of last year. However this may be, this necessary measure hls been too long wanted for to be any Linger delayed ; France has constantly recommended it to be dune, and Anatria, it is said, now lends her cc-operation. Some Roman subjects who had joinel in a more or less active manner the Roman revolution, but who bad received permission to remain in the Holy City, have just received orders to quit the Rmlan stater. Some new names have also been added to the list, of such of the inhabitants us cannot leave their houses betore sunrise, or remain out of them after sunset." The Giornale di Roma publishes a curious decree in the Larin language, concerning an application for the canonization of " the servant of God, Caspar del Bufalo, a canon of the Basilica of St. Mark, at Rome," born in 1786. After recounting that the Reverend Canon showed an extraordinary devotion from his earliest childhood, and that his life and death were such throughout as to impress every one with the conviction that he was a saint, the document proceeds t o state that an application was made to the Sacred Congregation of Apostolical Benediction, to examine into the alleged virtues of the said Reverend Canon, and the miracles he was enabled by the grace of God to perform. Whereupon, notwithstanding ten years had not yet elapsed since the application, Cardinal Altieri having proposed the question to the Congregation, " whether it be meet to sign the "mtaission for the introduction of his case before the Congregation ?" the question was decided in the affirmative on the IWh ult., and the decision of the Congregation confirmed on the 16th. This decree is signed by Cardinal Lambruschini. A French soldier belonging to the 321 Regiment convicted of having murdered a Roman tavern-keeper, was sentenced to death, and shot on the 26th, on the Pi-zza del Popolo.
