ITALY.

President of the Council of Ministers, Minister for Foreign Affairs, and ad interim of the Interior, Count Cavour.; War, General Fanti; Justice, Signor Cassinio; Finances, Signor Vegezzi; Public Instruction, Signor Mamiani; Public Works, Signor Ja.cini.

The official Piedmontese Gazette contains a decree dissolving the former Chamber of Deputies, and ordering some new arrangements in ihe composition of the electoral lists. The Governor of Central Italy has published the Sardinian electoral law, fixed the number of Deputies to be elected by the iEmilian provinces, and established the districts and assemblies for electoral purposes. Tha proposed treaty between England and France has caused a great sensation in Italy. The organs of the Piodraontese Press especially have expressed their satisfaction with the policy which that measure inaugurates, as being advantageous to Italy by drawing closer the bounds which unite France and England.

The news we have received during the past month from Vecetia, Kcme, and Naples has chiefly referred to popular demonstrations against the existing authorities, arrests, &c.

A proclamation of the Governor of Veuice, •which has been anticipated for some time, announces that whoever henceforward renders himself guilty of offences against public order shall be tried, not !>y w the civil, but by the military tribunals. The state of the whole province is becoming worse from day to day. Great military preparations are going forward ■io Austrian Italy. Four now forts are being constructed round Peschiera, where a large hospital has been established. Sixty-four rifled cannon of large calibre lately arrived at Mantua, and have been placed in the fortresses of the Quadrilateral. Heavy rifled bronze cannon have been substituted for the cast cannon.

In the course of one day seven officers were attacked and wounded at Verona by the people. The cavalry were ordered to clear the streets.

Attempts have been made to hoist the tricolored flag at Chioggia, Portosseco, and Palestrina.

Thirty-six individuals have been arrested at Venice for insulting persons promenading in the Piazza di S. Noze while military music was being performed.

A Venice letter, published in the Nord of Brussels, states that Count Bessiogen, the Austrian governor in Venice lately addressed the authorities of Venice as follows: —

" Gentlemen,—Do not indulge in theillusions of the revolutionists. His Majesty, with whom I have recently had the honor of conversing, assured me that •Venetia should never'be ceded,'nor sold, nor separated in any way from the Austrian monarchy, and Bhould never be detached from the Austrian empire so long as a musket remained to defend it.'.".

The emigration westwards from Venetia has been recently revived on a larger scale than ever before. The emigration is now going forward not only from the places near the frontier, but likewise from the farthest points on the Adriatic where the Italian tongue is spoken.

As to Rome, it has been more than once on the point of witnessing a great popular outbreak during the last two or three weeks. Several demonstrations of the feeling which is at work have been of the most violent description ; and the French general, who is in Rome for the preservation of order, has found it no easy task to suppress open and loud manifestations of the general hatred of the Papal rule. 'But for the French soldiery, indeed, there is no doubt that the Pope could not have continued at Rome.

A ministerial crisis, has lately taken place in Naples. The Filangieri Cabinet has been displaced by another, the precise character ,of which it is impossible to define. Several insurrectionary movements which have occurred;in Naples and Sicily appear to have impressed the anthoritie3 with an acute sense of danger ; and a reign of terror has become the order.-of the day. . . . - ■:..'■ •••■;• • • ■ ■ ' ■' ■•■ ' •■•

Military preparations continue to go forward on a great scale, and without interruption, in Austrian Italy*,,. The fortress of Mantua has been put iv a state of defence. Not only has the order to have its military stores sold by auction been annulled, but the whole pf the surrounding country, of Pietole, Pradella, San

Giorgio,and Pajolo, has-been flooded with the waters of the Mincio, " Whilst Austria is thus preparing for war/ says a correspondent of the Daily News, " the,political agitation of the Venetian^ provinces is so much on the increase that I shonld not be surprised to near that it has broke out into open rebellion. In spite of the severe measures of late adopted by the police, iv spite of the arrest of sixty-seven citizens, who have been shut up within fortresses, the demonstrations against the Austrian government have become more violent. On a recent Sunday an enormous sheet of tri-colored paper was posted up at Venice on the walls of the Fenice Theatre, with the words " Magenta and Solferino, an historical drama. Second edition for the year 1860." The ladies of the Venetian towns publicly wear tri-colored ribbons and aprons, and large brooches containing the obnoxious: portraits of Victor Emmanuel, Cavour, and Garibaldi."
