TURIN, MARCH 19.--Thoagh you must be al ready informed of the principal events which have distinguished the revolution in Piedmont, I shall make no apology for recapitulating a few of them, and thus supplyin , s you with a brief narrative of what has occurred since the first uncertain move ment till the date of my letter. The arrest of Prince Cisterns, on the frontiers of Savoy, as he was returning from Paris, said his con veyance (in chains I have heard) to .Finistrella, a fortress in the wildest parts of the Alps, together with the arrest of several of his friends, convinced the constitutionalists that their projects were known, and thus only hastened their accomplishment. Their object was to gain at first possession of some of the fortresses. The son of the Prime Minister, the Marquis of St. Menem, who was among the number of those suspected, and who was put under arrest in his own house, found means to make his escape, and proceeded to the fortress of Alexandria, whereihis partisans were numerous, both among the citizens and the garrison. There seemed to have been no previous concert between the revolutionary party and the troops. There was no conflict of arms. but there seemed at first little acquiescence. The governor opposed the surrender of the fort ; the colonel of the Savoyard regiment of infantry (about 1500 strong) who were in the town, would take no part in the movement, anti gave his troops leave or a command to disperse, and the regiment of Genoa was equally wavering and uncertain. In the mean time a body of the citizens, with the troops in the interest of the constitutional party, got and kept possession of the fortress, and fired salvoes of artil. lery, amid shouts of " Viva la Constiluzione di Spagna." On Saturday, the 10th, the intelligence of what was going on in Alexandria reached the capital, and inspired us much terror into the court as it did hope and resolution• into the party opposed to it. No movement took place at Turin indicating a general participation in the designs of the constitu tionalists till Sunday the 11 th ; un the morning of that day a Captain Ferreri, and about 100 privates of the regiment called the Royal Legion, proceeded to the boulevards, beyond Porta Nueva, shouting " Viva it Re, viva la conslillizioae di Sparia." A considerable party of students joined the soldiers ishout ten o'clock, and their numbers increased till they amounted to about 400. At noon, two com panies of the royal guards, two squadrons of car bineers, with a detachment of Piedmont dragoons, proceeded to disperse this body, to the cry of " Viva a Re," they were answered with " Viva la Cvoisli lusione," from the motley group of students and soldiers, armed with pistols and sticks, who put themselves in a posture of defence. Things remained In this state till four o'clock, when the latter, seeing that they were not joined by the citizens or troops, retired from their position, pursued by the dragoons, crossed the Po, ascended the heights fronting the city, and on the following day proceeded to Alexan dna, The guards and dragoons returned to their station before the royal palace, where they were joined by some companies of artillery anti a battalion of the regiment of Amite. On Monday morning, the 12th, some of the students and citizens, acting in concert, found means to ewer the citadel, where they hoisted the flag of revolution, and proclaimed the constitution As min as they entered, they raised the drawbridge, and announced the event by firing three cannon. An immense crowd flocked to the glucis of that forms.% and saw the unexpected spectacle of the garrison upon the ramparts, and the artillery at the garrison, shouting " Viva ii Re, viva la Constituaione di Sratt4," rho people without no longer hesitated to answer with similar ACCIAIII4- lions and enthusiasm. In this state of things P r i nce Cariosno, the next in succession to the crown to the King's briither, and a young man of popular character, had pot:ceded from his palace to the ci toilel to ascertain from his own observation the extent of the insurrection, and surrounded by entlitt aitistic multitudes, who, amid the loudest acclaim,. nuns of respect tor his person, entreated lion to intercede with the King to yield to the wishes onus ?calk anti Rive them from the honors of civil war. lite Prince yielded, anti repaired instantly to the pa lace, accompanied by elan' t 'lO,OOO of the inh a bitants —Ti le deputation continued in the palace tram 7 o'clock in the evening of Monday, till two o'vlo‘k taitittle Our lain% (tong Mutton, attb RAWL ~c,,: .;.=1.1.:4. - ,:‘, ,451.. ~..,.. 0 .4.-6. .

PARIS, MARCH 29.-4 he news from Naples is not altogether disbelieved here, on account of the source from whence it was at first promulgated; yet every body is surprised that no official accounts have arrived. A letter from Genoa, the writer of witich pro. fesses to have heard from Napl. s up to the 13th, takes no notice of the events which are said to have transpired there on the 12th. The Exchange of yesterday presented a frightful prospect ter the liquidation ; and tuany fortunes are likely to be seriously injured by the great variations which have taken place since the last account-day.— It is impossible to state exactly all the prices in the funds which have been obtained either for actual purchases or for speculations, which must be consi dered extremely hazardous under all the circum stances. Otte failure of an agent de Change was declared ; it is to be earnestly hoped it may nut be followed by ethers. In the night of the 2501 of March the Prince of Carignan° withdrew to Novara, where Gen. Latour commands. He had praviovsly ordered two regi ments of cavalry and light artillery to march to that town. Three proclamations were immediately pub lished at Novara—viz. one from the Prince, and two front General Latour, who therein declared himself nominated by the King Generalissimo of the troops- The Prince Informs the people of Piedmont, and that, in virtue of the King's declaration, he resigns his authority as Regent, and that he places himself under the CO inmatid of Gen. Latour, Gen. Latour addresse► 6110 of his proclamations w the inhabitants of Piedmont, and the other to the ituldiers. In each he urges the return to obedi ence of those who have departed from it. A telegraphic dispatch, receiv e d this day, an nounce that Piedmont ie replaced under the attain. rity of the. King, with the exception only of the citadels of Turin and Alexandria. This news has been transmit►ed to the Prefect of the Isere by the government of Stvoy. General Furde aide-de-camp to the Duke of Calabria, arrived there ua the evening of the 17th. and returned on the ;WO, after an audience of the King of Naples. The head-quarters of Baron Frituont were re moved on the ISth to San German, and in four marches he would he at Naplce. HEADQUARTERS, CLPIiANO. Masco 17. The enemy had lone been et4:4aired and en trenched ut the wilt of San Gamw, and appealed rules 9i .l. disposed to wait for us ; but the total dispersion of the army of Gcn. Pepe, which took place qt Abruzzi, left him no means of opposing the march of Lie:tit-- General Baron Mohr's corps, which advanced b r the road of Salmona towards the poetiona behind the Gavigliano. The enemy abandoned them, and that day we entered S.in Germano. Licut -Cu! nitwit, at the head of his column, after tircing and taking Nora, which was garrisoned withS„,QQO men, making a 'groat number of prism.- ere, advanced beyond Attina. To-morrow the army will march to San Gerona°. The names of the daces we occupy sufficiently in dicate the advantages of our position. • Our columns will soon form their junction on Ge banks of the I'olturno. The Prince of Cisterna, and the Marquis of Pria, who were arrested some days before ri,e insurrection of Piedmont, were on the 20th of March at the head of the National Guard of Turin. Among the superior officers was also the Chevalier de Salutes la Manta. who it is said, was last year obliged to leave the Queen's regiment of dragoons, to which he be.. longed, and which was in garrison, at Chinaberry. The King of Sardinia arrived with his family at Nice on the 20th, at eleven at night his Majesty made his entrance incognito. The magistrates had prepared lodgings for him on the 15th ; but the King and Queen were indisposed on the road, and the royal family stopped at Teuda, Sospello, and at the Ebearena. Our correspondent from Venice announces that the Neapolitan flotilla has appeared in the gulf.— The little Austrian squadron, commanded by Che valier Pshicei was also at sea. The King of Sardinia did not stop at Nice. He is gone to Monaco. Letters from Modena and Parma state that there have been arrests of a marked description in these two cities for Carhonarism. An English squadron of eight ships of the line and some light vessels is at this moment in the Road of Antibes. It was at first believed that it was destined to receive the King Victor Emmanuel and his Consort, in order to remove them to Sardinia; but the course taken by their Majesties dispro►et that conjecture. A letter from Vienna, dated the 16th, says-- We learn from Passau, under the date of the 3d. abut a secret association has been discovered there among the wort:men of the diferent trades, who meet regularly among the tombs of the Old Capu chin Convent About thirty of them have been arrested ; and from their examination, it appears that they hail gone so far as to form a kind of secret fraternity, by which they were pledged by mutual defence to the last extremity, everywhere and under all circumstances. They were bound by an oath, in the taking of which they drank uut of a skull. Some of them had daggers, and they called them. selves the Black Brothers. The Madrid papers of the 16th contain a report from the Minister for Foreign Affairs to Cie Cortes. '[he ratification of the Lem; with the United States tir the cession of the lioridas is an nou need, and Spain is stated to be at peace with the B xbary States ; but the principal part of the report relates to the stoics of Naples, Explanations are stated to have taken place between the Cabinet of Mitesid, and the Allied Powers, which, though not )et ter. minuted, have already produced, on the part of some of the Cabinets, the positive assurance that they do not mean to disturb Spain, nor to interfere in any way in her domestii• affairs Yesterday Baron Pasquier, Minister fur Foreign Affairs transaued business with the King Oa leaving his Majesty he visited the Prince of Castel cicala, to inform him that the Austrians were is Naples.

The King re solved not to sign the Cow titution and abdicated the throne. At 5 o'clock on Wednesday morning (13th inst.) the King, Victor Immanuel, with the Queen, their two unmarried daughters, and a retinue of about 20 carriages, proceeded from the palate on the road tti Nice, escorted by the regiment of Savoy cavalry. A few hours afterwards a proclamation was issued signed by the Prince of Carignan°, announc ing that Victor Immanuel had abdicated the crown. There was not a single individual wounded, a single horse pillaged, or even a single pane of glass broken in the capital during this revolution On Tuesday evening, at 8 o'clock it was announced from the balcony of the palace that the constitution of Spain was adopted ; his Serene Ilighness confirming the intelligence by appearing in person and receiving the cotdial salutations of the immense crowds as sembled in the square. A general illumination follewed. On the 14th the Ministry was changed, and a Provisional Ministry appointed. On the same day the National Guard was called out for the pro tection of the city. All the official papers have been transmitted to the provinces with great promptitude, and received %%hit eager interest. —ln the mean time the government, aware of the quarter from which the national dependence is most threatened, is sending its forces to the Miianese frontier. Almost all the troops who were in gar rison here have marched for Nova and other frontier towns. They anticipate no possibility of terms with Austria, and are preparing to join the Neapulitans , against her.
