Fe. ‘The excitement in Rome ia indvscribublo, I have this moment returned from @ walk through the principal streets, which aze radiant with the illumination of a amyriad of lamps and girundoles, suspended from every door avd window, in honor of the successful ros to the French troops; and [ sit down to give yous hurried sketch of the paseage of the last eighteou hours. At three o'clock this morning, the French army. 21,000 strexg. deployed from the seven points whieh i: ‘bad oceupicd during the last thirty days, in the immedi- ate vicinity of the city, and advanced within two tniles distance of the walls. Before the day had well dawned 200 Lombards were made prisoners, disarmed and sent to the rear. At five o'clock, the Roman army—which had been somewhat surprised at this sud- den movement, unexpected, inasmuch as negotiations bad been in progress only nine hours previously—took up poritions at the principal gates where batteries had already been erected, from which a heavy fire was epen- ed upon the advancing columns of the French army; from that time until the close of day, there has been an incessant discharge, on both sides, of artillery aad 1 ght arms, attended with alternate loss and succes’, The French have three times been driven from their positions, which they as often regained. ‘The list of killed and wounded, of the Italians, is reported at 2,700, Of the casualties of the other side, we have no means of judging. When darkness supervened, putting an end to farther hostilities ‘for a few hours, tho rela- tive situation of the two parties was very much what jt was previous to the engagement. But the moral advantege is with the Romans, The unanimity, which Increases every hour, to stand fast for the republic — the successful resistance, @ second time opposed to the entrance of the French troops into the capital —the ac- clamations wit), which every gallant action is hailed, by the innumerable spectators who throng the house. tops, columns and walls—everything, every sight, and «very sound, announce that a spirit is awakeucd, which must leave them victors, or, if vanquis) honored in their defeat, as few Italians, in have been honored before them. This effeminate, this emareule' deg: te people, upon whom it is the fashion to heap every stigina, till the nation»! ar is left without a single virtue, have ¢ (hin the last forty days defeated the best ap ops of continental Europe, ‘Traly, “ the old” have come agala, Within the last the city has been beluagured, individual not few nor solitary, of heroism have come nowledge, which would show, if I had time to re nt them, that “Rome has’ not “ lost her breed of noble bloods.” It is mot on the battle-field—not ia moments of danger and daring, when the blood is up and the human devil unchained, that the noblest a tions and the sternest sacrifices are to be witness- 04. The surrender of property to the last farthing, by humble citizens, who became literally beggars. Ancient families denuding themselves of heir-looms and long- » descended relics, which no poverty bad hitherto torn from their grasp—mothers sending forth their boys, fecble and slight, ant wanting many years to manhood, totake pots im the front rank—th and similar instances, are, inmy opinion, acts of quiet heroism, than which the thronged rolls of splendid achievements offer nothing nobler, nothing higher. And of these, the record of passing events, in these eventful timos, is full. All business is suspended. Barricades, solidly con- Gtructed, are thrown across every strevt, and the houses near thom cvenelled for musketry. The gates are min- ‘ed, and the roads in the direction of the enemy planted with iron spikes, to prevent the movements of the alry. From my windows, which overlook the Via del Corso, the principal street, I have jast noticed a — tong line of women returning from the ramparts, whi- ther they have been carrying ammunition and provis- fons. The only foree remaining in the city is 4 portion of the National Guards, whose duty it is to patrol, to prevent the commission of any acts of violence. It is estimated that twenty-three thousand strangers have srrived in Rome during the last three months. The majority are men who have beea driven from different States in Italy, in consequence of their liberal senti- ments, and the efforts they have made to establish con- stitulional governments, Dut among this number aro not a few ruffans, brigands and adventurers—such ‘birds as fly enly in Italy—who, under the pre- ‘text of supporting the popular cause, are awaiting @ favorable opportunity toexercise their horrible vo- cation of pillare and plander. Great apprehensions consequently exists that atamy moment these wretches may beret through ell restraint, and commence their toul and bloody work. This alarm, added to the natu- val fear ef on excited and exasperated soldiery, in the event of the French troops entering the city, renders “he situation of the foreign residents painful ia t Dighest degree, With the exception of Majer Casa, our Charge aAt- | fairer, there is nota ringle diplomatic offcer fa Rome, the whole of that body still rematuing at Gaeta, | au informed that Ruseian, English, German, and other foreigners, have rmplored Najor Cass to tyke them ander bis protection I know that ladies and gentlo- men of the highest respectability. have resorted to ‘is hotel iu great numbers, in hope of security, Among chem are some of our compatriots Not a few Roman femilies, 1 understand, of distinction aud nobility, have ive joined fn this request.

I despatehcd my Inst letter on the morrow of the in- surreetion, when all was involved in confusion, and oomparatively little that was clear, definite and cor- tain, was known, Every day which has since passed, has brought to light new oireumstan not only as relates to the capital, but to the departments, throagh- out which the ramifications of tho plot had spread. It may appear from the extraordinary facility with which it was suppressed, that this plan of insurrection must have been either an affair very badly matured, or organized within very narrow limits. The reverse, how- ever, is the case. It is now rendered incontestable that the conspiracy had spread throughout France.— Simultaneous movements took place at most of tho principal centres of population. Government, how- had previously been adopted in anticipation of it; it being, as you will see, about as promptly suppressed in the departments, as in the capital, with the single | exception of Lyons, which has always been the focus of | olenee. ‘There a bloody conflict took place.and @ for twenty-four hours, but was finally sappress- ed. ‘The army every where proved staunch to the go- yernment. ‘The bloodless suppression which took place in Paris is mainly due to the consummate skill of Gen. Chan- garnier. He had provided for all contingencies, and had given definite instructions to his subordinates. An incident occurred, at the point where the rue de la Paix debouches en the boulevards, which has not ap- peared, so far as Ihave seen in any of the journals, bas which forcibly illustrates the coolness and deci- sion of General Changarnier, and the admirable instructions he had given to those under him. Ican vouch for the truth of this, having received tho particulars from an eye-witness of the scene, As the procession of the insurgents moved along the boute- vards, from the Port St. Martin to the Madeleine, the | National Guards were drawn up in a line, four or five deep, on the boulevards, between the rue de Richeliea and the Madeleine, but especially on that part of the boulevards where the rue de Is Paix debouches, A | strong line of there civic troops barred the entrance of | the rue de la Paix. gImmediately behind them, in this | spacious street, were placed a regiment of the line, @ | attalion of the foot municipal guard, and the cavalry | of the rame municipal troops. In the midst of these | was Gen, Changarnicr, surrounded by a numerows | staff, I should observe, that the information resvived | by government satisfied him that, although the insur. | gente forming the procession were apparently unaraed, | they carried about them pistols and other concealed | weapons, and were ready to act as occasion should | render opportune. The gencral orders however given were, that the troops were not to fire unless fired upon; | but it was genoratty believed that they would be fired | upon, and they were, therefore, prepared for all eir- | cumstances. When tho head of the column had passed | the rue de Ja Paix; the line of National Guards. who | filled the head of that street, were ordered to fall back, | or, rather, to fall sidewards, oa the boulevards. ‘This | movement was executed with promptitude, and they | withdrew like a curtain, disclosing to the road the re- | gular trocps, infantry and cavalry, who occupied the | rue de la Paix, This movement was obviowly prepa- ratory to the advanee of these troops on the boulevard | forthe dispersion of the insurgents, ‘The latter were | prepared for it, avd had pre-arranged a curious ma- | Beouvre, With a view to defeat it, by shaking the fidelity and firmaess of the troops.

Among the: documents found in the Conservatoire, there was one consisting of a programme of the cabinet to be formed by the new provisional government, in case | ofthe success ofthe insurrection.

The Commencement of the Crusade against Republicanism in Prussia—Maich of Troops to Baden, §c., $a. The military operations against Baden and the Pal te have commenced. The Prussian troops have dy entered the latter, and taken possession of Kuirerslautern, the seat of the provisional government, whilst they are about to advance into the Grand Dveby by the way of Weinheim and Heidelberg. The temporizing of russia as regards the commencement of the military operations hitherto, was but a ruse de guerre, for the purpose of gaining timo to concentrate # more sormidable army in Western Germany, and se- cure the adhesion of the smaller States to the union | established under Prussian supremacy. The moment for action has now arrived. The vast army of Prussian ti placed under the command of two princes of the royal house, the Prince of Prussia, and Prince Charles, is moving in various directions, against the ceatre of revolution in Baden, Besides the divisions which aro about to enter by the way of Weinheim and lieidelberg, | another is advancing by the way of Germershoim, and | nother is taking the direction towards the south.
