AFFAIRS IN TUSCANY, BOLOGNA, KTO. Tuscany has unanimous|y yoted for wapesstion to Pied: mont, The vote was take alitiow, and 9,722 communes voted affirmatively, tae only &x2ep Rogelio. Novoriheless, the Sardinian Commissioner, ur. Buoncompsgui, has boca recalled, and the Taszane lett govern themselves. It was hoped in some quarters that they might be induced w iavite Prince Napoleon to rule over them, but the expectation does not seem to stand mush chance of being reslized, and it is said that the Princess Clotilde is quite caraged wt the disappoint- ne Paris correspondent of the Indépendance Belge, writ- ng August 6, seems to Vilok toat the presence of Garibaldi in Tuscany, and bis joining bimeeif to Generals Ulloa aud Mezzacapo, will compromise the pacite efforts of the diplo matisie at Zurich. He asks whether theee swords will return to their scabbards if the anpexation views of Tus- cany are pot seconded by Piedmont. He hardly thinks that they would be devoved to the candidature of a French Prince, and expresses the fear that in every contingency they will be an element of disturbance and an obstacle to @ genors! arrangement of Faropean diplomacy. Then again, petitions are numerously signed with the object of procisiming Garibaldi Dictator of ail Ttaly; and, to com- plicate matters still further, Mazzini was said to have landed in Tuscany. A reactionary movement in Flo- rence, which was easily extlogaished, was ascribed to bis inijuence, ‘The people of Bologna still matntain in regard to the Popal government the attitude which they assumed, and the independence which they proclaimed on the with- drawal of the Austrian troops from the Legations, They have a corpe d’araée of from ten to twelve thousand men at Rimini, and are determined to resist all attempts to rettore the Pontifical government im their provinces.

Joachim Napoleon Pepol. Crwesare adbiani, Ippolito Gabba. Pailippo Martinelli. Antonio Montanari, Fercimand Pinelli, ‘The Indépendance Belge has the following: — Our lewers from Rome annonace the introduction of a reform in tbe Pontifical States, the importance of which no one will be disposed to deny. In consequence of the negolixtions which have beea going on with reference to the presiceacy of the future [tauan Confederation, the Poptificat government hag consented to wdopi the Code Napoleon, suppressing ooly those articies relating to the civil marriage. A few days ago we anounced the adop- tion of this same code wituout the objectionable resiric tion above mentioned by the provisional government of the Romagus. If thie regolution bas resily Deen taken by the Roman government, it is procable tuat tne fall of Cardi pal Antonelli will precede these modificstiwas in the poli- tical «aterm whieh that minister nas never ceased to sup- port witn such deplorable obstinacy. White the authority of the Paps! government is thus so; at defiance in the Romagas, the untortunate citiz rogia are made to feel its veageance. Seven of them hava been condemned to death for the part they took in the late disturbances. The Parts Siéle, in branding with reproba tion this eentence, says: ‘The great loss of life which has already taken piace at Perugia does not satis’y Harains!

Bat wast bitter irony! The journal of the Uttramontanes lauds the clemency or the Sovereign Pontiff, because, according to a note pub- lished, ‘tne Papal government, ic its paternal solicitude, is not indisposed to take messures to allow voluatee who have been dismissed im consequence of ihe peas to return to the Roman Siates and rejoin their familics, Thus, to have combatted the Austrians, defended their native country, and acted ‘a coacert with the French army, is a crime in the eyos of the government of the but thet government, fai! of pateruai go- licitude, 18 not indieposed to pardon!

Unfortunately, however, before granting an amnesiy to our generocs guxilisries, it is not opposed to set up a scaffold at Perugia for the public execution of seven re- spectable citizens ! THE DUKE DE GRAMONT'S INSTRUCTIONS. A levter of instructions from the Freuch Emperor to the Duke de Gramont, at Rome, pledges him to obtain for the Logations “ the redress of their wrongs in 89 far as thair complaints gre well founded, tae watistastion of their in terestz, and the realization ef their legitiiaate aspira- tions.”” LOMBARDY AND THE AUSTRIAN DEBT. ‘The relation which Lombardy is to bear to the Austrien empire in regard to the natioua! deb} presenta to the Con ference a difficulty almost ss great as thet of the prop ised league. Austria wishes to saddle Lombardy wit « por tion of the national debt. To this Piedmont objects, and her Commissioner at Zurich bas instructions to set his (ve against any such claim. It is stated as an argument against Austria’s position in that respect, that waile Loca bardy stood to the whole empire as respects tuc surface of jis soil, in the proportion of 1 to! 31, In point of population as 1 to 14, and of aggregate income ag 1 to 11, her contribution to the general revenue was ag one to zix; and that, while there has been always a large deficit in the general budget, tac revenue of the Italian provinces has been in excess of thelr expenditure, averaging a miilion of dollars annusily since 1816, his constitutes, they think, fair and equita- Die set-fagaingt the claim of Austria to burdea Lom- bardy with a share of the natioaal debt. If this principle Of set-off should not be recognized at Zurich, then Pied- mont wil! demand that Lombardy be credited with the excess of land tax she has paid in the same time—she having paid at the rate of 29 per cent, while the rate in the rest of the monarchy was but 16. As this coatriou tion avereged about eight millions a year, the retro- spective reduction would be equal to threc-and-a half millions a year. The arraogement of this foancial ques. tion to the satisfaction of both partics ts almost a hope- lesa task, The French ploutpotestiary will necessarily be the arbitrator and sole judge. Besides these little bills against Austria, Lombardy has another claim against ber for some forty miltiony of dol- lars, deposited in judicisl proooedings, and on behalf of minors, heirs, charitable institutions and securities of ofli- cials, In the present stringent condition of the Vieana money market these demands will prove decidediy an. noying. Austria has also surreptitiously got hold of the fron crown of Lombardy, and will be called upon to re store the stolen property to ite rightful owaere—the people, Tae titigation that will spring up in ‘the court a: Zorich on there various points will not tend to make Ans- tria and Piedmont better friends. THE SAVOYARD MOVEMENT IN SARDINTA. It is anticipated that Victor Emanuel will fad mach diffi cuity in procuring the sanction of the Sardinian Parlia ment to the conditions of the peace. Strange to say, the representatives of the clerical party evince the stronges\ antagonism to the peace, and twelve out of twenty two Savoyard membere—more immediately under th» {nfluence of the Jesuits—bave published a manifes:o de ciaring thst they will apply all their efforts to ob:ain for Savoy a release from her financial aad military contingent and an exemption from ail the bardexe of the late war. This manifesto is said to have oo casioned much grief and anxiety to the Sardinian gov ernment and people, particularly inasmuch as it wes connected with the following petition, which wit boing signed at Chambery, addresed to King Victor Emanuel, praying for the union of Savoy to Frauce:— Sire—The great events which have exalted go high the glory of your Majesty, and those which are atitl j Wom, clearly indicate that fresh destinies a wait the peose ment, ptovaim the foundation of an Italian nationality, cienrly defined by the Alps, aa well az by tha rasa, thé habits ava the language of ‘those who aro to form pert of it.

What Lord Paimersion Thinks of the Con- dion of Mexico, [From the Londoa Pos, August 9 } Tae condition of Mexico for several years past hes beea @acandat and disgrace to the civilized worid. If wa are asked for proof of this agsertion we have only to rofer to thote gross and infamous outrages upen life and property which bave marked the successes of the various chief- taice Who in that country have obtsined the temporary possersion of power. So long as violence was confiued to mexican subjects neither Engiand, France, Spsia, oor the United Siares had the sligntest rigbt or excuse to inter fere. But the citizens of all these Powers have been ex Pored to exactly the same cruelty and oppression &s pave Mexicans.

In the of theas facts the English and Unived States Ministers have egreed to differ. Mr. Qoway and Mr. McLave can not concur in any common course of poicy, and the British government, with that spiri otf fair play 'whisr must be considered most satusfactory by the United Sta'es Cabinet, has determined to institue an inquiry into the conduct of ¥s representative, Afr. Onway ail the four Powers bave for eome time bad squadrous on the Mexicaa coast, bet po effectual reparation has been ob tained.

If, by the convenient and peaccante proowes which this treaty provides, Mexico is destined to fail under the protection of the United States—the first step to virtuat anpexution—what guarantee will the Griticn holdere of the Mexican cebt have that the doctrine of repudiation will not be disagreeaviy and? upjustiy extended from the North to the fer South? On political and secial grounds we think that Mexico, as a portion of the United States, would offer a more safe and valuable fuld for British commerce than in tts present chronic cmdition of violence, revalution and jawlessness, But ber Majesty’s ministers wili neglect the interests of the capivalists of this country and at the same time fully adcoit the Moncos doctrine, if they permit the government of the United States to have its own way with respect to the future political org snization of Mexico. If we copsiter moavtary aad commercial into rests, the poyple of this country have wore direct and tm mediate concern with Mexwo with Italy. Forta. rately the question has not fallen into the utterly iacom- petent bands of Lord Eicho, who wishes, with reapect to Tisiy, to substitute for the responsibility of the executive avoie of the House of Commons, which must in every cose at present be premature and wholly unnecessary.
