DEFEAT OF THE AUSTRIANS BY THE SARDINIAN TROOPS. PARIS, TVESDAY, 101 A Nc. A charge in the Post-office regulations, which has just been announced to me, will curtail our means of transmitting early ihtelligence to you to a cer tain exter.t. Hitherto, letter a posted before 11 a.m. were despatched by the mid-day London mail. We are now informed that they must be posted by half-past 10. This will operate very injuriously, in asmuch as provincial and foreign letters are fre quently received so late that they cannot be available until the afternoon mail. The chief subject of conversation last night and this morning was the extraordinary and sudden fall in the funds at yesterda)'s Bourse. The Threes, which closed on Saturday at 301, closed yesterday at 331, being a fah equivalent to above 10 per cent. Other government securities fell ir. a like proportion, but railway shares were but slightly affected, and Bank shares suffered but a trifling decline. The weekly statement of the Bank of France was said to produce art unfavourable influence. The 30 millions which the Bank has lent to government without interest will, it is said, be delivered in Bank notes, which will be put into immediate circulation and thus complete the complement of paper, namely 330 millions, which the Bank Is at present autho rised to issue; but even this will not be sufficient, and little doubt is entertained that the Bank will be com pelled to make a much larger issue of paper to the government, receiving as a security the property of the late civil list. Accounts arrive from the provinces indicating serious disorganisation in the troops, and disorders among the industrial classes. At L'Orient the non commissioned officers and gunners were in mutiny against their superior officers on the night of the 20th. At St. Omer disorders broke out on the occasion of the removal 'of a statue of the Duke of Orleans, and serious disturbanzes are reported in the neighbourhood of Brionnes, near ltouen, in a manufacturing district. I mentioned yesterday that General Cavaiinac had definitively refused the Ministry of War, or rather that the terms on which he would accept that office were not agreeable to the government. General Oudinot, who has served in Africa, is mentioned, as well as Generals Negrier, Schramm, and Preval. The Bishop of :Nevus has written to the Damts to complain that Easter Sunday has been chosen for the elections, a day on which, from religious duty, the clergy cannot, and many of their flocks will not, take part in them. He suggests that they should be post poned to the next day. M. de Boissy. the ex-Peer, has written a letter to recommend the bishops to direct the clergy to celebrate mass on Easter Sunday at 6 o'clock in the morning, ar.d vespers immediately after, so that they may be able afterwards to take part in the elections. The attroupementa and manifestations have at tracted the serious attention of the Provisional Go vernment, and the Mayor of Paris, M. Armand Marrast, has issued a proclamation in which a firm and moat laudable intention is manifested to put down this most intolerable nuisance. The mayors of the arrondissements respectively are authorisea to call out the national guard for their effectual suppression. Pushing the democratic spirit to an extreme, it ap pears that numerous companies of the national guard bare elected officers from ranks so low that they are literally usable to afford the expense of their uniforms A subscription was accordingly opened in the respec tive companies to defray this expense, but it appears that, in many instances, such a proceeding offended tke armair pr pre of the officers elect, and rather than submit to accept the donation of their colleagues they signified their intention of resigning. Under these circumstances, the Mayor of Paris has announced, by proclamation, that the city of Paris itself will clothe those officers who cannot afford to clothe themselves. Private letters have been received in Paris, an nouneing that a general insurrection had taken place at Wilna in Lithuania, and that the insurgents were masters of the city. At a meeting, on Sunday, of about 1,800 Italians resident in Paris, it was prorosed by M. Lizabe, the secretary of the committee, that an address should be sent to the people of Italy, requesting them to pro claim M. Lunartine an Italian citizen. The motion wag unanimously adopted. At the same meeting it was decidtd that a column composed of the first volunteers who had enrolled themselves should set out for Italy to-morrow, and that the other columns should follow as seen as the necessary funds have been raised. The command is entrusted to Colonel Antonini, an old soldier of the empire. The demonstration at Lyons which was made on Thursday, on the occasion of the release of an artil leryman, did not terminate with the man's speech at Ole Hotel de Ville, for the soldiers and people, sight or ten thousand in number, promenaded him in triumph through the streets. The nab-officers of the regiment of artillery had ad dreleed a demand to the general to obtain the recal of the colonel, who had gone to Paris. Whilst the demonstration in honour of the soldier was taking Plane, another demonstration was made by the women. Three or four hundred of them hal ,- mg alsembled in the morning in the court (tithe Palace St. Pierre, they divided themselves into bri g ades, commanded by women acting as sergeants, and marched about the town With drums beating and banners flying. 4o LATEST P.S., QUARTER TO ELEVEN. VICTORY OVER THE AUSTRIANS. By the areval of news from Turin of the 31st ult., accounts have been received of an' encounter, near Nlontechiari, between a strong body of the Austrian armv and the Sardinian. General Bra, who was at the head of four thousand regular troops and seven thousand volunteers. The Sardinian Ge neral gained a brilliant victory, and took from the enemy an entire squadron of cavalry, three cannons, and some baggage. This news was brought by a special courier, who started from Milan on the 30th. The forces at the disposal of Charles-Albert amount to 30,000 men. The Risoryintento of the 31st ult. states that the Austrian army, commanded by General Itadetski, had retirtd from its position, at Soncino and Ort.inovi, towards Mantua. Bergamo, Lodi, Cremona. Creme, and Brescia, had been likewise evacuated by the Aus trians. Oar Madrid correspondent, writing on the 29th, says: Madrid ri-sunnd yesterday its usual appearance. Of the ex squadrons of cavalry, of the six or seven thousand infantry, of the civic guard, who, on the 27th, were all out and about under arms here, marching there to martial triode with cnlnurs idly spread, scarce a soul was anywhere to be seen. The whole army scented to have sunk into the earth. A Solitary sentinel here and there was the only mai -1 tall thing you met with. All the ahcps were gay and spark ling as yens!. and not a trace anywht re visible of the despe rate street battle of the night of the 26th. Early on the morning of the 27th Madrid presented the ghastly look of an abandoned battle.lie.d. Wad bodies lay about the streets and squares and near them large pools of jellied blond ; while the cold dawn made more ashy the vicdet tints of death. Eleven bodies lay thus on the Plaza Mayor; four were clothed in the old uniforms of the milicia natinnel ; the rest were in cap and jacket. The early people about going to work and mark, t stopped slid made groups about the piteous sight. staring with heave faces. The immense number of arrests warrant the conclusion that all liberals, who are in the least distinguished, will be taken up and have their papers searched, if they do not fore stall the government by flight or concealment. In to-dad's Gazdie appears the answer of Sartori's, to the liberals who desired to present an address to the Queen to exercise her royal prerogative of mercy in favour of the in surgent pr.soners. He says, " I have given account to her Majesty the Queen of the communication of your Excellency, accompanied by a cl3cument announcing the resolution taken by the senators and deputies of the m:e.nrit,es of both legislative hcdiea, to meet for the purpose of addressing a petition to her Majesty; and I have also in formed her Majesty of the reply of your Excellency declining o permit the said meeting ill the goy, rem. tit decide. The Herald° of to-day says that the lens of the rebels ex , ceedslid wounded and 30 killed, although no official data as vt t have been published. The prisoners to be tried by the council of war are NG. -- • Yaw" MARCH 29.—Three per Cents.. 211 cash; Five per Cent.., 14 paper ; 41 paper; Coupons, 10 paper; Bona of St. Ferviiruin 110 eash ; 112 p.aper.

We have letters from Milan to the 29th inst., from which it appear.; that Marshal ltadetzky had offered to exchange 100 prisoners which he had taken against about 6,000 Austrians in the hands e f the Mlanese, requiring moreover that the latter should be delivered up with their arms and baggage. It is said that an offensive and defensive alliance against Austria bas been concluded by Charles Albert with the Pope, thi King of Naples, and the Grand Duke of Tuscany, and that it will soon be published. The Riv,rginiento of Turin, of the 31st ult., contains a royal proclamation, dated from Voghera, 29 h, in which Charles Albert, declaring it to be his duty to defend the cause of Italy with his troops, calls upon his subjects meanwhile to defend the frontiers and coasts of the kingdom. The bishop of Turtona has issued a cir cular to his clergy, directing them to otter up public prayers for the victory of the Italian cause. By a decree of the 27th, the Provisional Government of Milan has opened a loan for 24 millions of lire ; another decree, of the same date, abolishes the lottery ; and a third allows the introduction of Piedmontese wines at a moderate duty. Decrees of the war department order all officers upon leave of absence throughout Lombardy to return immediately to Milan, and direct the enrolments of cavalry. The same journal, in a postcript, announces that General Bea, with 4,000 regular Piedmontese troops and 7,000 volunteers, has attacked a large body of Austrian troops in the vicinity of Montechiaro, and forced them to surrender. This confirms the news above given. The Cow-ore/in of Turin, of the 31st ult., mentions a rumour that the Viceroy of Lombardy had been ar rested on the Tyrolese frontier, while making his escape to Vienna. The whole of Friuli is free. Dal matia is said to have proclaimed Italian unity. A poetseript contains the positive news of the arrest of the viceroy and family at the 'Liza, on the lake of Garda. Palmanoova is in the hands of the insurgents, with General Zucchi at their head. The deputation who presented the address from the municipality of Turin to the Provisional Go vernment of Milan, met with a gracious and grateful reception. The answer made by Colati to the mem bers of the deputation was so agreeable to the depu ties, that they considered it their duty to send it immediately to King Charles Albert. All the Piedmontese and Genoese who have ar rived at Milan are in continual festivities; and one thought alone prevails, that of the fusion of halt , . Padua has protested against the proclamation made by Venice of the republic of St. Mark, and the Pro visional Government of Venice had declared that they desired to see an Italian government established, and acknowledge, above all, the necessity of unity. In every other town of Italy the thought of unity pre ! Tails. LATEST FROM PARIS. PARIS, TrESDAT, S r One of the journals to-day affirms, as I anticipated would be the case in my letter this morning, that the difficulties attending the appointment of a proper Minister of War have proved insurmountable. No military man having the slightest reputation or capa city, will accept the office under the present govern meat. The expedient which has accordingly been decided on is said to be a translation of M. Arago from the Ministry of Marine W the Ministry of War, and giving him a chief secretary, taken from the ranks of the etat major of the army. Another fall at the Bonne took place of one franc on the Threes, and two on the Fives to-day ; the one closing at 341, and the other at 52#. Bank shares, 11401 ; Orleans Railway, 495 ; and Northern, 3081. The Club de la Montagne has passed the following resolutions, on which all the Paris clubs are called to pronounce: 1. That the monument erected to the memory of Louis XVI. should henceforward be consecrated to the memory of the martyrs of the 9th Thermidor. 2. That all the statues of kings should be removed from all public places, and be deposited in the national museums, and that in their place the statues of the great men of France who have served the republican cause should be erected. 3. That the judgment against the twelve penons who were convicted in February should be declared uull. 4. That all obscene statues and prints should be removed from shops and public places. Much difference of opinion prevailed as to these resolutions, but they were voted by the club. One of the journals, in commenting on these reso- lutions, says One of the most bitter reproaches made against the restoration was the attempt to drawee all traces of the impe nal regime ; as if, in removing the statues of the emperor, and eblitering his cypher on the public monuments, they could blot out his came sod deeds from recollection. The emperor only became greater in the remembrance of the people. Because France has been six weeks a republic, ought we to forget fifteen centuries of monarchy ; and will removing the statues of Henry IV. and Louis XVL blot their names from history. The put of a people is u much a part of it as its present and its future. If France would found a government, and not a tempest, she will endeavour to establish new monuments, and not destroy the ancient. Let us have more order and liberty ; that will be better than attempting to lead u nto forget the monarchy, as if wo had fear of the comparison. The Orleans Railway Company having been re sisted by the engineers to-day, who refused to work the line, called on the commissaries of the government to exercise their authority. The latter interfered, and called on the recusant employes, in the name of the republic, to proceed. This wan effectual. The result has been that it has been proposed to the government that the line shall be immediately taken possession of by the state, and worked by it, being as it were sequestrated provisionally, and until some S oal arrangement be made. A decree to this effect is hourly expected. The Duke and Duchess de Montpensier landed at San Sebastian on the 2nd instant. nazi, Aram 4.—New Loan, —; Three per Cents., 34 25; Do.

(THREEPENCE. Further letters received from Madrid, of the 29th afford other detnils of the insurrection. The council of war ha• condemned to death two of the prisoners made on the '2Gth. The Queen has, however, pinioned them. Search was made at the house of M. Salamanca, who has eluued the search made for him. The arrest of MM. Glens' and Mendizsbal was reported, but without foundation. General Cordova yesterday visited, at the General Hos pital, the sot isrs wounded on the 21ith, Pensions have been granted to the mothers and sisters of officers k;lled. The gevernment hoe received a letter from the Duke d'Ahurnaela : it dies lint yet ann?nuco the arrival of the infanta, Duchess of Muntpensier, at St. Solaria's. By news received through the conductors of diligence-a, from Valencis, Aragon, and listransadura, those places were tranquil. Letters from Rome, of the 28th ult., state that the most perfect tranquility prevailed niece the departure of the troops and volunteers for the frontiers. The civic guards occupied all the military posts. A sub scription had been entered into for the purpose of equipping the volunteers. The Pope had subscribed 30,000 francs, ar.d the religious orders, the nobility, merchants, and cardinals, had also largely con tributed. The poor vied in generosity and patriotism with the rich. We hear from Berne, on the let of April, that the federal directory . had refused to pe:mit the German Legion formed in Franca to pass through Switztr land. The executive council of Berne had prohibited the Germans residing in the cantons to form themselves into armed bodies. Switzerland has resolved to observe a strict neutrality. The new French anthasqtdor, M. Thiars,. adopts a style of living quite simple and republican. We have letters from Botzen, in the German Tyrol, of 26th Man It, which say : Our country, end Brixcn, oar capital, is tranquil and faithful in the presence of the revolt of Trent and ltoveredn, the chief towns of Italian Tyrol. It seems that the Italian Tyrolese wish to unite them selves with Lombardy. The have sent 2,000 armed volunteers to Milan. They population is not suf ficiently strong to prevent the Austrians Irom crossing their territory, either in their retreat or in sending reinforceiaents to their army. Late accounts from Berlin state that the ministry has again undergone a modification, still more liberal. Count Schwerin, having resigned his office, has been replaced by Mr. licekemtb, d•paty of Crefeldt, near Dusseldorf. The Minister of War, General do lteyher, who only accepted office provisionally, is to be re placed by General Hauser or by General Willefrew. Ills latter is called for by the Polish deputies to be placed at the head of the army of the duchyof Posen. The ministry is entirely taken from that portion of the Diet which was known as the ultra-liberal party : it is thought it will satisfy the general wishes of the country, especially those of the Rhenish provinces, which are tue must unreasonable and the most en lightened. WEST INDIA MAIL. CAPTURE OF FORT SARAI'IQUE BY THE lIItnISII FORCES. By the Royal Mail Company's steamer Medway, Captain May, Lieut. South, Admiralty Agent, arrived this morning at Southampton, we have accounts from Nicaragua, 25th, and Chagres, 28th February ; Car thagena, 2nd; La Guayra, Gth; Demerata, 7th; St. Jago de Cuba and Trinidad, Bth ; Jamaica, 9th; ilarbadoes and Grenada, 11th ; Martinique, 12th ; Antigua and I'orlo Rico,.l3th ; St. Thomas's, 16th; and Fayal, 29th March. The Medway brings 38 passengers, 172 boxes of dollars from Cha ,, ' res and Carthagena, on merchants' account, a small quantity of gold dust, 25 tierces of Jamaica coffee, one box of pearls, and 34 bales of sarsaparilla from Carthagena. The affair of the King of Mosquito was likely to bo settled satisfactorily. Some fighting had taken place, which ended in the capture of Fort Serapique by the English, with a loss to the enemy of 30 killed and wounded and 10 prisoners. Mr. Patrick Walker, the consul-general, was drowned on the Bth ult. We extr .ct the following from the Jamaica papers : TIIE Sr. JUAN EIPEDITION.—The Medway arrived yes terday morning from Chagres, bringing the news of the cap ture of the upper and lower forts on the Oregon river, by the boats of R.M.S. Alarm, Capt. Loch, the steamer Vixen, and brig Daring, Capt. Smith, and a detachment of the 38th Regiment, the whom in command of Capt. Loch, with Commanders Rider and Peel is command of their own boats. The lower forts showed much resis'ance, but the less in the boats was trifling; one man killed, and a mid shipman wounded. The loss on shore was considerable, but the exact number: not known. The wounded and pris.ners were sent on board the Alarm, and some of the former had died. Through the kindness of Jacob Mitchell, Esq., of this city, his Mosquitian Majesty's consul, we are enabled to lay before our readers the following interes , ing correspon dence relating to the affairs of St. Juan de Nicaragua. It is with much regret we learn of the death of Mr. Walker, her majesty's consul-general. Particulars of the melancholy occurrence appear in the subjoined : Saint John's, Nicaragua, February IS, ISIS. My Dear Sir,—l received your note this afternoon ' and hasten to answer your question as soon as possible, hut your good sense will see that Mrs. Walker should nut sec thisletter, or be made acquainted with it, at present. Mr. Walker left this place with the expedition on Tuesday, the Ith, and on Friday night the wounded came from the expedition, being. leg the news that Mr. Walker had been drowned on the evening previous to that of the attack on Serapique. On the following day, Mr. Tcmpsky and lien came down, and from the former I gained the following particular. or Mr. Walker's death: It appears that he and Mr. Tempsky were sleeping in the Alarm's barge, having the rain awning spread, the tide running very strong, when the crew were awakened by screams. At the same time, a boat, which turned cut to h., the guard-boat of the itight, touched her. There immediately arose a cry "We are boarded." When the men rushed to the arm cheat for their arms. Tempsky instead of going to his left hand, for his arms turned to the right, and wont overboard; he was picked up about a quarter of an hour after. During this time they had mimed Mr. Walker from the barge, and them y was given that he was also overboard, but was nowhere to be found: this was at two o'clock In the morning: our pinnace went down afterwards in eau,* but could not and anything. I should Fay that the expedition will return about the 20t1t, when I I have great hopes that there will be some further communication coo. Corning this mecholy affair at Illueftelds. —Jamaica Despatch, March 6. Tax LATI AFFAIIi AT ST.

The Vixen had her star , board paddle damaged—received two round shot through her, and 14 musket-balls. Captain Loch and Mr. Fayner, midshipman, had a narrow escape, and cut three men down. The action lasted 40 minutes, and resulted in the capture of Fort Seraplque, with a loss to the enemy of 30 killed and wounded and 10 prisoner.—Jamaica Dispatch, March 8. Colonel Capadoee, of the let West India Regiment, expired suddenly, at Up-park Camp , on March Ist. Her Majesty's ship Vindictive, having on board Sir F. W. Austin, K.C.8., arrived at l'ort Royal from Grenada, on March Ist. At Jamaica, there was no change in the state of business since the previous report, except a trifling improvement in the prices of sugar and rum. Money continued scarce. The Port of Spain Gazette of March 7th, says For the information of our distant readers, we may mew lion that the crop season has at laat fairly let in, and gives every promise to be a long and steady one. A good deal of sugar has already been made, and the planters are straining every nerve to get off the crop . as . quickly and economically as poerible. Very g reat attention is being paid in all quarters to the quality eft he sugar made, and in some districts mut decided improvements have been effected in this respect. The labourers are working with more steadiness than could have been expected at the reduced rate of wages. As re gards the weeding of the canes already ant, the planting of fresh pieces. and, in short, everything connected with the crop of 1849, nothing will be done; nothing, in fact, can be done, for want of means, until the intended measures of re lief by the home government are fully announced, and their value ascertained. On the result of the present ministerial deliberations depends the question, whether tour-fifths of the estates in this colony shall be abandoned after the pre sent crop, or continue in cultivation. ------- The Gazette of last night announces the appoint ment of John George Shaw Leferre, Esq., brother to the Speaker, to be Clerk Assistant to the Houses of Parliament, in the room of Benjamin Currey, Esq. ; the office having been dadined by Sir David Dt111(1116. It Is reported that Bir Denis La Merchant, formerly K.P. for Worcester, and Se =Wry to the Treasury in 1841, and now one of the Under- Secretariu of State, will snowed Mr. Lame as Secretary to the Boma of Tzsde.—The Glerdiees of this day. THE REVENUE. We have reason to believe that the statement of the Quarter's Revenue, to be made up this evening, will exhibit, on the whole, a satisfactory return. As compared with the corresponding quarter of last year, there will be a slight increase in Excise. The Property.tax will be much as before ; but the Customs will show a (tiling off, for which the public must have been prepared. On the whole, we believe, there will be an increase on the quarter of between 3.10,000/. and 400,0001. ErouCeMet or Cann:ale: Poon.—Yesterday, a public meeting in rid of the efforts of the Cathode 'Poor School Committee, was held at the district echoed-house, Grad Wirdmill-street, Haymarket, Dr. \Vi-eman pre hided, and opened the proceediegs by pointing out the bene fits which were likely to result from tie formation vet the committee, whose (hay it would be to procure funds for the assistance art the per schools, to communiimse with govern ment on such matters relating to their object u might be required, end also to Advocate the claims of the schools upon public assistance. lle had received returns of the numbers of catholic childr. n who were instructed or in course of instruction, compared with those who were en tirely destitute of such ad ventage s. In the Virginia•street district there were about 1,200 receiving education, and shout SOO without it. In the Lincoln's-inn district there were 300 of tin former and 2,600 of the latter class. In many of the districts the proportion of educated and un educated were about equal. In the Rosoman,street district for instance there .vere about 600 of each chum; and in the St. Petrillo street district the numbers were 420 and 450. In the Spanish-place district there were 4P5 receiving in struction, and 2,000 destitute of it; to which a contrast was shown by the state of the St. John's-wood district, where the whole of the catholic children were receiving education in schools. In Pepler there were 383 educated and 354 uneducated ; and in 11-renondsey the numbers were respectively 310 and 1,000. The returns received showed a total of 11,00 or 12,000 catholic children wanting education in the nietropolii; but there were several large streets fur which the returns had not been received, which would raise the number, be believed, to about 15,000 lie urged upon all friends 11 the Catholic cause the necessity of coining forward with elueietet assistance towards the re mora, of so vast an amount of ignorance.—The Rev. Dr. hors iv moved the first resolution : That the bishops basting entrusted to the catholic poor *shoots men mete, the important aial sacred duty of providing aid f, the educa tion of the poor, it is incumbent on all who have this object at heart to cooperate to the utmost with that body in carrying it out as effi dually as possible; and that an no place in Englund stands so much ins need of educational aid and efforts fur promoting education arming the poor as this metrupotis, in which it aopeirs from the returns collected and preeented be the right rev. chaimian, that there are at present many thou-ands i.f children of both s. xew wantiog tholk education, it behoves the catholic" of London morn than others to ex. rt themselves in this holy CAM', and to organise as quickly as possible the mi.t effective plans fur collecting funds to be placed at the disposal of the committee for that purpose. Mr. 'Venial seconded the resolution, which wad adopted unanimously. Resolutions were alio arsed by which it was agreed immediately to open a subscription for the above ob .' eta, mod to establish training or normal schools for teachers, without which the cause could not derive bent fit from go vernment aid. The Him. Petre, the Rev. Mr. Moore, the Rev. Mr. Neale, and Mr. Paliaeno, spoke in support of ' the propositions; and several contributions were announced as having been received for promoting the objects of the meeting. 'TIE CESSATION OF TILE 81-MONTIILY MAIL, eiei Southampton, after next month, will be of considerable im portance to the public. Letters and newspepers for India and the Mediterranean after that period cannot be forwarded by the beginning of the month read except through Mar seilles, which will subject them to a heavy postage. The postage en every newspaper for India via hlarsoil.cs is 3d., while via Southampton it is sent free. The postage on every letter welching no more than half an ounce, era Southampton, is Is. ; while via Marseilles it is 2s. Bd., nearly three times as much. " For all ordinary pur7oses, there fore," says a correspondent, "the communication between the United Kingdom and India is reduced from twice a ; month to once. Independently of the expense of postage, however, by the Marseilles route, no ore, at present at least, would think of sending valuable enclosures through France unless absolutely compelled to do so, while that country is in a disturbed state. Much surprise has been ex cited why the Peninsular Company have been so anxious to give up the contract to convey the mails at the begin ping of the month, since their vessels must run from South ampton into the Mediterranean even after their contract ex pires; and between 15,0001. and 16.0001. a year is considered to be no trifling remuneration for running a vessel between Malta and Alexandria, especially when the amount of passenger traffic on that line is considered. The tact, how ever, appears to be, that the Mediterranean steamers which leave Southampton at the beginning of the month are bound for Constantinople, and the it being obliged to call at Malta out and home on mail service prevents them from making an extra and very remunerative trip to the Black Sea. It has been suggested that tho Constantinople steamers should drop the Trails at Gibraltar, and that her Majesty's steamers could run between Gibraltar and Malta with the mails, as they used to do some few years ago. The only objection to thin plan is the repeated transhipment of the mails. Besides the 15,000!. a year which the government pays for the snails between Southampton and Alexandria, it cogs the East India Company and government about 150,0001. a year more to convey the hi-monthly mail between Alexandria and India. The Oriental company made an offer some time since to do this for little more than half that sum. The Peninsular Company have for some time past been anxious to convey the India mail from Marseilles to Alexandria. Previous to the disturbances in France the passenger traffic to India vid Marseilles was increasing rapidly, and this valuable traffic was thrown into the hands of the French steam-packet com panies, owing to her Majesty's steamers being appointed to convey the India mails to and from Marseilles. FIRE AT 311TCHANI.—AR extensive fire broke out last night, between the hours of eight and nine o'clock, in the large manufacturing premises belonging to Messrs. Robins and Co., weavers of patent hosiery, situate at Phipps bridge, Mitcham, Surrey. The premises in which the des aster occurred were nearly 300 feet long, and were fitted up with costly machinery, &e. In a very brief period the greater portion of the factory became wrapped in Hamel. Information was sent by a mounted police constable to Londun, with intelligence of the calamity, and a number of engines, with a proportionate force of firemen, were des petalled to the spot; but, notwithstanding the moil strenuous exertions, before midoieht the immense pile of premises was burned to the ground. The whole of the stock in trade of goods, finished and partially so, have likew se been reduced to ashes, and the costly machinery has been spoiled. The lose on this property alone will amount to several thourand pounds. Independent of this loss, the contents of Messrs. Taylor ' the hot-pressers and silk - dressers , have been totally destroyed, and some compartments in Messrs. Welch, Margetaon, and Co.'s silk-printing premises have sus tained serious damage—viz., the madder-rooms, tool-houses, carpenters' shops, and copper-houses, some of which are —teed down. SHIPPING.

COMMERCIAL 81 MARKETS. tIONEY MARKET & CITY INTELLIGENCE. Two o'clock.—The continued extraordinary fall in the French funds has caused much anxiety, al though the fact has not produced any injurious effect on our own funds. The Three per Cent Rentes are reported in some quarters to have been done as low as 32f. 50c. at Paris, yesterday, but the Cour, Authentique gives 34f. 25c. as the lowest price within the regular hours of the Stock Exchange. if the lower rate quoted represented actual business, it mast therefore have been business done in the Coulisse, after the official close, among outside speculators.

CORN.—MARS-LANE.—The arrivals of Wheat coastwise, since Monday, have been moderate, and but little addition has been made to our supply by land-carriage sam ples. The trade ruled very dull this morning, and Monday's rates were with difficulty supported. Foreign Wheat was the turn cheaper. Barley sold slowly, at previous prices. Oats were rather easier to purchase. Beans and Peas nominally the same. FAILENAM, April 4.—Wheat, ss. to 10s. per load cheaper ; trade dull. Buley was in tolerable supply; maltsters pur , chased at rather easier terms; best Chevalier, weighing 561bs. per bushel, made 365. per qr. ; second quality, 345. ; inferior, Ms. to 32e. ; malt was sold from 71. 63. to te. 61. per bushel.

Oats, superior, Poland and potato, weighing 42Ibs. to 4411 u. made 275. to 1 28 s. per qr. ; moderate white, 245. per qr.; feed, 20s. to 225. per qr. Ht'LL, April 4.—We have had fine weather during the past week ; indeed since Saturday it has been exceedingly hot. Farmers are now very busy with the sowing of Spring corn, and we may look for a decided falling off in home asp plies. This may not improbably check the downward course of prices so general during the past week in all markets ; indeed we expect such a result, for no fresh Wheat can be imported to meet our currency, and the stock of such, either in the hands of farmer or miller, inland or at ports, is ex ceedingly limited. Conformably with the above view, we had for today's market a very arnall show of Blagliahccrn but the dull reports from Mart-lane, and the depr e sse d state of the manufacturing districts checking thesele oFr,lo caused our millers to be only shy buyers, unless at an equiva lent deline, which was not generally submitted te, hence we write the market le. to L. per il qr. %we/ than legit Tuesday. Foreign is not generally off at the decline, holders being rather eanguina of some improvement. Ws are well sup plied with all descriptions of spring Corn. Barley has been mU the week, and still continues, in good demand. Seal sells freely at 315.; and for fine, 541 b. Danish, 30a. is made. Oats of all kinds are very heavy, and ls. lower. Beans arepressed on the market at low rate', without attracting buyers in any quantity. Peas arc again Is. low. r. The season is fairly on ler Torte and al' kind of Seed., hut no amendmeat in price can be noted. Looted is rtoruewhaf dull, and in [Me instasote Is. lower, owing to tho slackened demand for Cake, horn the improvement in weathrr, and the ccuation cf export orders for Oil. With severs! arrivals of Raps seed, the market is barely supported. Some sales ere reported at 261. 10s. per last. Rape Cakes ore ss. to 100. lower. The market tor Bones Is without alteration, though buyers sre all tryirg for lower prices. The unsettled state of political matters on the Continent is not unlikely to &mi.. 1 Baltic and D mists supplies. Guano, especially Peruvian, is in good demand, and fetches full prices.
