Society for the purchase of Venetia.

--The Sicilians have just organized a society for the purchase of Venetia, and elected Garibaldi as its President. In a very eloquently written address, the founders of this society make a warm appeal to the patriotic feelings of the Italians, and announce that societies of a similar character will be established in all parts of Italy. When the amount subscribed is equivalent to the estimated value of Venetia, it will be offered to Austria; if she refuses to accept it, it will be applied to the raising and equipping of an army for the conquest of that province.
