Rome, Sept. 7. The Vicar Legate of Bologna set out lately with the Marquis Angelini to visit Fort Urbain, and make the necessary Preparations to put it in a State of Defence. The Militia of Romagna are marched, agreeable to the Order of the Pope. We have received Advice that the Women of Fuenza being grieved upon this Occasion at the Departure of their Husbands, and attributing to the Jesuits the Troubles which the Ecclesiastical State is afflicted, went in Crowds to the Convent of those Fathers in order to set Fire to it, and had already thrown in at the Windows some combustible Matters for that Purpose, but the Bishop found Means to appease their Fury before they had proceeded to the utmost Extremity.
