Is it aeo6tul, after that, to mull the way in which Ferdinand twice slandomed his kingdom at the first appearance of the Fiend treepe, only to return to it through the aid of foreign loyalists ia 1815. It was by the seine means he Trammed to Naples in HMI, iriekting on the country the 610141, terrible peraerutime, after having violated the most solemn onth "(dastard' taken the Ist October. 1820, and destroyed what the French kiwis had introduced of useful establiah• te-ets during a period of ten years—from 1806 to 1815. We would instaime the alteration of the Code Napoleon asel the mitre removal of the excellent body of magis trates which the Minister of Justice, Francis Rioclawli, had establishes' during the reign of Joachim More; sail which Austria herself had reelected in IRIS is th.• treaty of Omalarum. Nor can anyone be ignorant of the inowitrous ingratitude shown by Ferdinood 1. in 1816 towards Sicily. which had twice giver him an alrylose—in 1799, and front 1806 to 1815, and had even assisted him ' Id. r.lly with her men and money in support of a cams which was iv.: hers.

The reign of Francis 1, was not lee fatal to the Two Seilies, though it lasted only five yam, for it may be suimeal up in the following facts;--Superstition more and inure cherished ; misery and ignorance increased ; espionage to Asia mein. of governing; corruption openly exercised sad patronised by the government ; eslistmeut of Swim troops • the horrible butchery perpetrated in the province of Salerno, 18'29 c he the direction of the too famous Delcarretto. Such were tie misfortunes of the kingdom at the death of Francis 1., the Bth of Nov., IWO, which his eitecomur was obliged pebbly to lament over on ascending the throne, and which promised in his first prochunatiou to remedy. We know ire what way this promise was fulfil/el. A volume would be necessary to euunierate all the crimes of Ferdinand 11. We •duill, therefore, content ourselves with DUMB 'sting the principal. After a very restricted ans sraty, the abolishing mom taxes, the removal of some ufr the moat odious initrumenta of the past reign, the sea of Francis made his (Moms by executing sore unfortunate person at Palermo accused of an attempt at insurrection, rat by pardoning the form e r prefet of Mathieu convicted having tortured and killed a good many innocent people in Inlabria. Add to this the nomination of that very Deltorretto, who, in 1828, bad been the scourge of Salerno, and who during seventeen years was the real head of the government, consisting then as now of the most infamous pities that has ever existed. Notwithetamding the severity el this latter, or portage in consequence of it, there was scarcely a year in which some coespiney was Rot homer' or some insurrection attempted. Thera were three or four of these attempts; is U.. short period that passed between 1832 end 18:33. A much more serious insurrection took place in Sicily in 18137, as well as one in the Abruzzi, and others m ditfer a,' pert. of the kingdom in 1841, 1844, and 1847. It is seerftem to my that on each occasion the beet blood flowed freely, so that the history of the Two Skill's at this period fur me one of the ieuhlest pages of Italian martyrology, and furnishes at the ouule to:, • mot ranking proof of the an tag etude feeling existing in the part of Italy between the me us and the government, if one dared to dignify with this • the monstrous power which owed its existence only to duagemi and the executioner.

Jort lure• h this latter to summepoielopele Aniongst all the crimes committod by the Bourbons, this t leolo na hl e neutrality, we may even say this ounapboty with Auer, the Pope, is certainly the most odious with I which they m a y be reproached . It true that the Bour boss of ;.,ph are fatally condemned by their unfortunate antesslents to make common cause with the natural and implacable enemy of Italy, and this alone i s mufti cleat to make us artie t i l itt P aire au end to their dominion over ill. meet beautiful and moat unfortunate part of the Peninsula. But here an observation will not fail to be tussle In the defenders of the Bing of Naples. Why is it, they Will my, that st the time when the rest of Italy is more or les ag.titell, the Two Skates alone remain traNuil ? Is not this a Certain_ sign, if tot of the ex osli ence .•f th e preernamest, at least of its relative excellence, 1 and of the men than satinfactory Mate of the kingdom ? Th e mph is easy, for those who have but a slight acquaint &DM with the Two Skilled under the double consideration of the orguaisatiou of the government, and the miserable e, edition of the governed. The system of centndiastion, earned to au extreme degree, gives to the ruler an astonish ing pmet. which steam and the electric telegraph greatly lucre.* tin the find information of the slightest attempt no inaui lectiou in any tort whatever of the kingdom, troops and artillery can be embarked on board the numerous war steamer s. and transported in • few hours to their destina tion. To this must be added the want of leaders to the liberal party, fur the beet and noblest of the country prison or live in exile; the entirely disarmed state of the country, the partisans of the Boar. boas, organised as city guard, alone hoeing a right t o m om arms. We must not eit heri forget the alm os t impossi bility there exists of the liberals communicating from one province to another; obtaining a passport for going the shortest distances being a thing of extreme difficulty. We 'Wald also my that, wuggether with a numerous disciplined army, strongly organi s ed e and commanded by officers blindly devoted to the governing power, there are on the one side an immense number of men interested in maintaining existing &bums, and on th e o th er masses whose profound ignorance incapacitates them from ap preeiating their miserable state of degradation. We must also take into account the strength inherent is all power, whatever it mar be, that his been long established. Mnelly, we must not forget the great care with which the Neapolitan government seeks to keep the Two Sicilia out of the influence of the moral and intellectual movement, not early of the rest of Italy but of the civilised world, to such • poet as to make it a second China. Bach are in substance the powerful canoes through which the Two Siedies have appeared, and still appear to support the odious yoke of the Bourbons in silence, whilst the rest et the peninsula has shown, and still shows, such ardoes for the holy cause of liberty and national independence. At present there is an additional reason added to all the others. We mean the hope which the people of the Two rixtlies entertain, that at the moment when the fate of Italy is to be decided the most considerable of the states will not be forgotten It It is enough to say that the deepest despair andincalculable evils will be the onmiequeuce of this hope be deceived. But it is impassible that Europe will allow a nation of nine million inhabitants longer to suffer torture, at the very moment when she ap pears willing to respect the rights of Central Italy which, hire min, are founded on the great principle of national sovereignty. We also claim the oonstitutional rights which have been confirmed I* that very royal authority front which sinus all ourmhfortunes In fact, Ferdinand 11, was the first monarch in Italy who granted and swore to consti tutional itniitUtiODl • sad if acts of oppression of eve* kind have iu reality destroyed the constitution of the 11th of February, 184 ii, they have never dared ostensibly to an nul it ; hence it results that it virtually exists, and Europe ought to oblige the government of the Two flicilies to re establish affairs on the same footing on which they were before the fatal 16th May, 1848. We do not think it axles to lay before the eyes of Europe the solemn protest signed that day by the sixty-four deputies assembled at the liotel. de-Ville, at the very moment when the Swiss and the royal guard were carrying fire and sword through the unfortunate city of Naples: " The chamber of deputies assembled in preparatory erasion at Monte Oliveto, seeing itself, at the very moment when it was fulfilling its oommiamion, smiled by the vio lence of the royal troops in the person of its members, in whom resides the sovereign representation of the country, pretests, not only before Italy, whose resuscitation is thus attempted to lie disturbed, but before the whole of Europe rising anew in the sprit of liberty, against this act of blind despotism. It deeLnis the meeting is only suspended in consequence of the exertion of brute force, but that, far from alsinsioning the accomplishment of its duties, its mem. hers are determined to unite again whenever and wherever it may Is , isweible for them to do so, in imler to adopt the resolutions demanded am much by the importance of the circumstances ea by the Hibbs of the people and the mauled (lignite now so shamefully trodden under foot.

A question of some interest to playgoers was decided at the Manchester County Court on Wednesday. Mr. Abel Harrison, of Stalybridge, brought an action spinet Mr. John Knowles, the proprietor and manager of the Manchester Theatre Royal, to recover 15a, the vales of three reserved neat tickets and the return railway fare of three persons from Stalybridge. Mr. Hopwood appeared for the plaintiff, and Mr. Albany Fonblanque for the defendant. It appeared that on the 10th of January Mr. Wm. Henry Harrison, • son of the plaintiff, went to Manchester, in comequence of an advertisement of the Blue Beard panto mime which he had seen in the Manchester Guarchau, and purchased three reserved seat tickets for the lower circle, for Thursday, the 12th January. Three paper tickets, and three ivory checks, with the number of the seat and the day of the week impressed on them, were given him, wrapped in • bill of the play. Sufficient particulars having been found in the advertisement, the playbill appears not to have been scrutinised. Mr. Abel Harrison and his two sons went from Stalybridge, on the evening of the 12th of January, to attend the theatre, and their train Mould have arrived about 7.15 ; but, owing to mine delay, they did net reach the theatre until about eight o'clock. They produced their tickets to the boxkeeper, who told them they were too late for their seats, the first act of the first piece being over. On the part of the plaintiff, his two sons stated that the lower circle was full on their arrival, so that there was not even standing room ; that their seats were taken ; and that they were offered • seat in • private box upstairs, which was already occupied by several persons, and from which the performances could not be seen. They ' declined to accept this acoommodation and demanded their money back ; and, upon thin being refused, they re turned home. The version on the part of the defendant was different. Ore witness said that there was room in the private box, and the performsooes could be seen from it ; and another said there were six seats, at least, in an " indifferent" part of the lower circle, near the stage, choice from which was offered to the plaintiff and his sons, but was refused. Some letters passed between the plaintiff and the defendant subsequently, and the latter pointed out that in the bill it was stated that reserved seata could not be kept after the Ind act. For the plaintiff it was con tended that the advertisement stated " Box-office open daily from eleven WI two, when seats may to, secured to the lower circle, 3e. each," nothing being said about any reservation with regard to the first act. The plaintiff bought tickets on the faith of the advertisement. It was absurd to suppose that any person would read through the playbill from beginning to end, before they reached the theatre ; but, supposing that had been done, the notice near the bottom would not have applied to their case. It was " lower circle, 2s 6.1. ; revered Aeon, 3s. ;" and lower down, "box-office open daily from eleven till two o'clock, during which period plains may be obtained for the lower circle, which are secured till the end of the first act." This, it was contended, only applied to the 21. 6d. seats, and not to the reserved seats, for which an additional sixpence was paid to reserve them ; for, without paying the extra 6d., he should expect a seat to be reserved for him according to that notice, though it might not be any particular seat. The Judge (Mr. Brandt) said he did not want to stop the case ; but he thought there was a general understanding— at all events from the facts of this case it was pretty clear —that the three specific seats only should be secured until the end of the find act. Then the only question was whether the defendant was not bound to find them some ether places. Mr. Fonblanque argued that if Mr. Harrison contracted with Mr. Knowles for the use of the three mate on the night in question, and broke the rule of the Manchester Theatre Royal, and of all other theatres, by going after the first act, he immediately broke also his part of the contract, which was then at en end as far as Mr. Knowles was con cerned. And it being the usage that, after the first act, reserved seats could not be retained, Mr. Knowles could not prevent the seats being taken by the public. The public had then • right to the seats, and it would be to the in oonvenienoe of the public, and not Mr. Knowles, if those seats were retained beyond the first act. If the plaintiff came after the first act he bad to take his chance as to whe ther be got any seat at all. In such • case as the latter the public had an advantev at the Manchester Theatre Royal, whit& he (Mr. Fonblanque) did not know they pos sessed in any other town, because the piece of ivory, if not given up, would admit the bearer to the theatre on any other night ; so that if a seat were reserved a whole night and never used, and the holder were to conic on any other night with his piece of ivory, the manager would sustain the loss of • seat, and the public be inconvenienced. After hearing the defendant's witnesses, the Judge said he could not help thinking there was a little anger in the ease. Mr. Hopwood said he did not think it had been proved that any reasonable seat bad been o ff ered to the plaintiff. Judge—lf there was the 11)1,1110V1 of a seat in the dress circle it was quite enough. It he does not choose to come in time for his own seat be must take what remains. Mr. iH op w ood - No q_ matter whether he sees or not. The J No ; I think not. I don't take upon myself to decide t e main point, whether they take a specific seat. But if there be a seat at all I think it is enough. a In reply to Mr. Hopwood, who said that only one of the defendant's witnesses spoke to there being any vacant seats in the dress circle, the judge said that the plaintiff's wit nesses would nut say positively that those seats were nut offered them. . . . - jUigM - 0 - 12 - t - wae aocordingly given for the defendant. MARKEI S. SUSSEX AGRICULTURAL REPORT FOR MARCH. The weather daring the past month lava been, for the most pout, very unfavourable for getting in the spring corn. - Upon the down farms, some considerable programs has bean made in oat sowing, but upon the clay soils very little has yet been done, and on many farms not an acre of pea. or bean. has be en sown, and it is now too late to do so, with any peeped of getting a good crop. It is now h4b time that the barley crop should be sown, but the lands still too wet, and it will require several days of fine weather before it be in a fit state to receive the med. This ia alao the cue with the fellows that are in preparation for niewl-wureel and potatoes, the plant ing of the latter will be later than usual, as at present it is impossible to get a good season. This we con sider a *mat disadvantage, as it has always been found that the earlier planted potatoes are not OD liahle todisease as the later ones. The Southdown flocks are now in the midst of lambing, and we regret to hear from many quarters very unfavourable accounts ; in some instances there have been heavy losses of ewes, hut the mod general complaint Is the great mortality among the lambi, amounting, in some cases, to nmaly one-half, so that we fear there will be an unusually short crop. This has been one .4 the most trying winters we ever remember for the management of a flock • the sea. ther wais so unfavourable, and the severe frost de'stroyed so many turnip., that limey wave obliged to feed entirely on hay, and although therewaa a large crop lastyear, the stack-yards are nearly empty, and many farmers are obliged to purchase loanable them to keep their stock, and consequently there has been a combinable rise in the price. There has been a good deal of animation in the corn trade during the latter part of the month, and a considerable rise has taken place in the value of wheat. We have all through anticipated that such would be the case, as the price of wheat during the last few mouths hie beau much below what circum stances appearedto us to warrant. The het year's crop is in no instance that we have heard of a large one, and in many cases the yield is very bed, and the quality still worse. We fully expect to see the improvementa main- Mined, and we are of opinion that the probability is in fa ' your of a gill further advance.—BrigAton Gazette. HE CORN TRADE. BIRMIN4;IIAM, Aria s.—For the two first weeks of the past mouth the wheat market continued dull ; but we have since lied en advance of 4s. to ss. per quarter on English wheat, and almut half that amount on foreign, so that there is now less difference in the value of the two descriptions than has hitherto been the case since harvest. As is usual, this rise has caused a more onisiderable one in nearly all the continental markets, except those of France, which were previously too high to admit of much export to this country, and large purchases of wheat and Hour have been made for shipment, particularly in the Baltic and French ports ; the advance in freights, and the difficulty in obtaining vessels, showing that we may expect extensive supplies from those quartets. In the south of Europe the growing crops are favourably described, though a few ship ments are still making from France to Portugal, and the prices of grain in Egypt continue high, as well as those asked fur grain deliverable at the Black Sea ports at the opening of the navigation. The appearance. of the wheat crop in this country has greatly improved the last week or two, especially on sandy and loamy soils ; but human complain that on the stiffer land it is very thin, and there is a considerable demand fur spring wheat, to sow in between the rows of autumn planted where that has failed ; but we still think that, iu meet cases, there are enough plant. left to prodnce a good crop. Though the growing wheat In the southern states of America is complained of prices were declining in Now York at the time of our last advice., and in consequence increased shipments of both wheat and flour were being made for this country. There is considerable difference of opinion as to the quantity of wheat left in the hands of our fanners ; but we think it is still very large for the season of the year, as, notwithstanding the scarcity and high price of fodder, which would induce many to thrash some time before selling, the ricks in all parts of the country are very numerous. Local dealers and speculators also have a prod deal on hand. Our present prices are :—English red, ha. id. to his. led.: white, 6s. 6d. to Is. 2d. per 621bs. at Birming ham. With a very limited demand, barley has increased value is. to per quarter. Wu think this proves that the stocks of this grain now in warehouse are remarkably small, and that there is much less than usual held by the growers and dealere, or consumers. Large purchases lave, however, been made for arrival and free on board in the Baltic, Den mark, France, the Danube, Black Sea, Asof, 1, Turkey, and other pnalueing countries of Europe, noel of which appears likely to arrive at the time when there is but little demand for consumption. Danube sells slowly at 295. to 30e. ; feeding French, 330. to Ms. ; Eng lish. t 4, 35. per :192.11.4. at Birmingham. Bar lay sowing has commenced under favourable circumstances. As is usual at this season of the year, the supplies of eats from the (sneers have much lessened ; English have cone , (Lucidly advauced fully Is. per quarter, and some descrip tion* of hialt nearly as mech. The stocks at Gloucester are further reduciiii, and we do not hear of many cargoes on the way ; and our markets ...re still too low to remunerate shippers from Ireland, etc. Our present prices are, Irish grey and light white, 24e. to 25e. ; heavy white, 2%A. 6(1. to 265. 6d. ; black, ?Is. 6d. to Zia. 6d. We have au Dutch left in store; and those on are offered u t 235. to Asa. per 3121b5. at Gloucester~F o e glish beaus are la. to 2s. per quarter dearer than at the beginning of the month, and they have still an upward tendency. The winter planted have been much injured, and in some su e s destroyed by the frost. Egyptian continue very unaaltable with us, bat we have more demand for French, of which a few cargoes are still expected at Gloucester. Old English sell at its, to 190. ; new, 16e. 6tL to 17s. tip. ; French, 16s. to 16s. 6d. ; Egyptian, 15e. to 15s. 6.1., all per 1961 be. here. We have quite as much demand as usual at this MIMI of the year for pees, large quantities being com mimed by sheep in comequence of the shortness of keep. White are worth 15s. to 16s. per 1961ba. at Birmingham. Owing to the further advance of 2a. per qr. in the value of Indian core the consumption has much fallen off, and is now nearly confined to feeding poultry. The present prim, delivered at Gloucester hardly equal to that paid for whole cargoes arrived on the roast. Our markets continue poorly supplied with Dari, millet, and buck wheat. Pota toes are still scarce and deer.—(From Messrs. J. and C. Sturge's Monthly Circular.) THE TIMBER TL%DE. Messrs. A. F. and D. Mackay, of Liverpool, in their ch. cular for April, have the following remarks on the timber trade:—Pine Timber—The sales of pine timber from Quebec continue as at the date of our laut. The stock, now coned. derably reduced, is still in the hands of the trade, and a fair amount of consumptive demand is experienced. The business, however, as is usual at this season, is confined almost exclusively to transactions of a ret ail character. Similar remarks are nearly equally applicable to St. John pine, none of which has arrived since the date of our lard circular, and the sales have been . principally from the yard, in retail quantities. Red pine continues to move off slowly by moderate or rather small retail purchases. Oak—Of this the sales have been moderate, and chiefly by retail. Elm and Ash—The stocks, particularly that of elm, are considerably in excess of last 'year. No public sales are recorded. N.B. and N.S. Pine and Spruce Deals Considerable sales of these favourite articles have taken place since tho 9th sit., the date of our last circular. Of the sales by auction of St. John dads, 11,863 pieces bright spruce, ex 'Manumit., were offered for sale from the quay. oil the 9th ult., in 26 lots, of which 23 were sold at from 8/. 16s. to 9/. h. averaging 8/. 19s. 4d. 4th quality, 81. ifs. On the Mrd, ex Empire of Peace, 16,147 pieces were void from the yard at an average of 9/. 3s. 6d. On the 30th ex Elba Young, from the quay, 7,402 pieces, inclesiini d i,sB9 broad, sold in lots at an average of St. la. lid., ex ystone, from St. Stephens, 25,996 pieces sold in 64 lots at from 81. 10a. to 91. 10a., averaging 91. la. 7d. per standard. Pine from St. John, on the 16th, ex let quality, 1,222 pieces sold in lots at an average of 12/. Ha. 3d. ; 2nds, 2,698 pieces at an average of 91.188. 2d.; 3rda, 1,975 pieces at an average of 9/. 35., free of cartage to railway. Boards from St. John, ex Great Northern, en the 30th, 6,198 pieces of spruce, yielded an average of 91. 10s, per standard. From the preceding quotations it is apparent that values have not deteriorated ; on the con. trary, that the general usefulness which they are known to possess, confers on pine and spruce deals a buoyancy in the market, which few other articles can command. Quebec deals have been sold at from 91. 10e. to 10/. 10a for thirds ; 121. to 12/. 2a. 6d. for seconds ; 16/. to 17/. for finis per standard. The stock is very much reduced in retantity. flardwaxl— No ales are reported. The stock is small, and good fresh wood would meet with a ready sale. Pitch Pine—Of this a few sales have taken place from the quay and the yards, but mostly on private terms. Greenheart—No sales are reported. KI. Teak—A cargo just landed has been sold, but the price will not transpire. Baltic Timber—The state of business in this article remains the same as reported in our last circular, no new feature having been introduced since, nor has the spring import as yet begun to arrive. SUGAR.—The average price of brown or Muscovado anger, the produce of the British Possesslone in America, for the week ending April 3, is 27a. 4d. per cwt., exclusive of the duties of onotoms paid or payable thereon.—The average price of brown or Muscovado sugar, the produce of the Mauritius, computed as above, is 295. 91.—N0 return has been made of the price of brown or Muscovado sugar the produce of the East Indies, in the week ending as above.- - —The average price of the two foregoing descriptions of sugar, jointly, is 275. Ind. CORY.—WATINYORD, APRIL 4. —Our stipplies of home. grown grain continue on a moat limited scale, and of foreign we have not had a single arrival since Saturday. The im• provement noted in the trade on that day his been well maintained, and prices of nearly all articles are in favour of sellers, with a fair husinesa passing. BOOKEINDING.—Good old bindings, be the book ever so worthies', seem to be in demand at present. Puttick and Simpson, at their sale of the private library and stuck of books of Mr. John Clarke, the well- 0 known skilful bookbinder, realised high prices for two or three specimens of ornamented leather. Amongst them were • copy of Field's Bible, folio, 1659, in the original richly tooled morocco cover, 25/. Apostolime Histories, • fine specimen of old English binding, but slightly injured, 15/. 15s. Psalterium, • Castiglione, Basil, 1547, elegantly tooled citron morocco, 91. Some works from Mr. Clarke's own hands also sold very high. In the same sale a collec. tion of Defoe's smaller pieces and tracts, in sixty-two vols., sold for 431., and a copy of Eliot's Indian Grammar, printed at Cambridge, New England. 1666, although in bad condi tion, sold for 27/. 10s. MONSTER FLOATING DOCK.-.-Meittril. Rennie, engineers of Blackfriars, are about to construct at their works at Greenwich • monster iron floating dock for the Spanish government on • scale of roilicient magnitude to admit the largest line of battle ships. The dock will be 335 feet long, 110 feet wide, 45 feet deep, and 4,000 tons of iron will be used in its construction. When completed the dock will be forwarded to Cadiz iu sections, and will then be fitted together for use. It will be constructed on the tubular system, so that it may be sank in the water, and by the introduction of air be enabled to lift ships of large size.
