ITALY. — OUR VERGE CORNESPONDERCE. Venice, July 23, 1866, REJOICING AHEAD OF TIM st the close of my last letter the Venetians were in be aniiuipatory enjoyment of a great display of Italian couora, to the total ignoring of such a thing as an Aus- trian government. But it was not long after ere one of the handwritings on the wall to which Venice is subject made its appearance, It was from Baron Aleman. He bad heard of the purchase of a remarkable quantity of colored goods, which nilght be intended for party em- Dlems, but he begged to hint that as they were not qnite out of the wilderness it would be just as well forthem not to vociferate prematurely, nnder pain of being dealt with according to the military code for such cares made and provided. This in no way tended to the exhiiiaration of the people here, who were just then relapsing into one of those fits of despondency to which I called attention in atormer letter, With the sieamer from Trieste yester- day (Sunday) morning there was nows to justify some- what this feeling, which before there was not.
