SATURDAY.
Letters from Turin, of the 22d instant, announce that the King of Sar- dinia had formally protested against the occupation of Ferrara, and for- warded copies of that protest to all the Courts of Europe. Charles Al- bert had, moreover, written to the Pope, offering to place at his disposal both his army and navy, should the independence of the Pontifical do- minions be menaced by the Austtian troops. It was expected that the pro, test would appear on the following day in the Piedmontese Oacette; and the inhabitants of Turin were preparing a general illumination to celebrate the event.
Accounts from Vienna, of the 14th instant, state that the intelligence re- ceived from Gallicia was far from being satisfactory, the country being in a state of great excitement.

At Lemberg the country was also in a very disturbed state.
