ITALY. (MOW OM OWN CORR NAPLIB, Dec. S. Victor Emmanuel arrived yesterday Boning and received similar hononrs from ore vessels to those he received on leaving. We have now heretbeHannibaL the Renown, and the Queen ; all three were dressed from bowsprit to mast, and made • very gay mqsarance. The band of the Hannibal played the Hymn of Victor Emmanuel, and the officers of the several vessels were on the quarterdeck in full kg; as for the King, his steamer, the Victor Em manuel, was taken as close as it could be under the bows of the Hannibal. His Majesty stood on the quarterdeck uncovered whilst the bead played " God save the Queen ;" indeed, the very best feeling prevails between the two services. lam glad to report that the small-pox is fast dhiappeanng from the fleet. The Renown bad two fresh came:. last Sunday. In all I think there have been 120 cases, dve of which have died, and two, who are now suffering from confluent small-pox, are not expected to live. By Admiral Mundy's girders the buys have all been reevaceinated, and the crews have presented themselves. A.s far as I can make out, one or two of the deaths occurred in cams which bad never been vaminated. All the sick I mentioned in a former letter are on the island of Nisida, where the lasaretto—an admira ble building, much improved of late, was placed with the utmost courtesy at the dis posal of the admiral. On the death of oar men taking place a request was made for par esis-4m to bury them on the island. It was immediately granted, and permiss i on was 00S• • in the very flattering terms, "We eaa refu..e nothing to Admiral Mundy and the British government . ' The pour fellows were aosamiMmly buried in the cemetery, which I take for graated was consecrated ground, and if so, wooed* to the forms of the Roman catholic church. If this was the case—though I unlit make further inquiries before I can guarantee it—it marks a meet important epoch in the religion, history of this country. Long before this reaches England you will have received intelligence of the death from apoplexy of his Royal Highness the Count of Syracuse, the eldest uncle of Francis 11. It was the curse of his existence that he was a Bourbon prince. Had he been born or had he lived in any other country, his natural qualities, which was good, would have been properly developed and directed, and be would have been an agreeable and useful ' measlier of society, pez haps a distinguished painter or sculptor, fur he bad much theta for the arts. As it was, be was affable' awl good-natured, and much liked by a large class of persons ; he was • dabbler in art hill time, which hung heavily on his bands ; be was liberal in his politics, alwa; a is oppoarion to his brother, Ferdinaudi I 1., and as Lord-Lieutenant of Sicily was a popular governor. A man of strong passions mei considerable abilities, no career was opined for the exercise of them • bewail condemned to ivaction, and then only was c onsidered harmless, when livings life which his best friends regretted. His history is that of tens of thousands of others in this unhappy country, where the king, priest, and policeman united to smother all that ass great and good, and to develop and encourage all that was evil. Yet Leorld, Count of Syracuse, was the best of his family, and there are thousands in Naples who will lament a good-tempered, affable, and familiar friend. I have omitted to state that there were two small , 1 French steamers in port when the King entered yesterday—the Mouette and the Prony. The former dre.sed ship and manned yards; the latter bad been there a very short time, and had her topmasts down, so that she had no time to do anything ; and perhaps bow eenneander, a tremendous legitimist, was not sorry of an excuse. An attempt WWI made to assassinate General Dunn last night, by, it is supposed, a Sicilian major under his command, who had been refused his brevet. The assassin hae not been raptured. The ball entered the back, and is still in the body ; but tit%) report this morning of our brave countryman's health is as farourablo as could be expected. THE =DJ MALTA, DOC. s. Her Majesty's ship Melpomene arrived yesterday from Corfu ; she experienced very mesh weather, and had emit damage done. She was to have started immediately for Syne, but she will now require some days to refit, after which she will proceed to *trees.

Two persons, named Cooper and AM, who are in Mr. !Sanderson s service, were also charged with a similar dhow _ _ Mr. Beard, the solicitor, appeared for the defendants. It will be recollected bast Henderson and Cooper were laid a few days " go foe a similar offence, and it was proved that the proceeding' carried on by them on Sundays was not only a great annoyance to the inhabitants of the home, but to the public generally, and the Lord Mayor inflicted the full penalty fixed by the act of parliament creating the offence, which is a statute pared in the Mith year of the reign of Charles 11. The statute directs that in default of payment the partite convicted shall be put in the stocks for two home. At the former hearing Mr. Beard was un derstood to Mato that the defendants were determined to persevere in carrying on the business on the Sunday, sad to defy the law. All three of the defendants pleaded guilty. Mr. Beard addressed the Lord 'fagot and said that the defendants did not attempt to deny that they had !wok's the law, and they pleaded guilty under his advice. He was instructed, however, to state to his lordship that the pro- ceeding against them was not taken upon any public grounds, but merely to compel them to Lam the house, which Mr. Henderson was determined not to do. His lordship, he said, would of course be bound to convict the defendants, but as the complainant bed had notice of their intention to plead guilty, he submitted that no carte ought to he ob tained. Mr. Beard went on to complain on the part of the defendants that they should have been sought out when it was well known that there were plenty of other similar offenders in the City of London. The Lord Mayor said he had within to do with the pro ceedings of other parties, and be could only deal with the ease that was before him. It_ appeared to him to be quite h clear that the defendants id infringed the law, and he must therefore adjudicate upon the matter. Mr. M'Cliuth begged to be allowed to contradict the statement that had been made by Mr. Beard on behalf of the defendants, that the proceedings against them arise from intereeted motives. The whole of the respectable inhabitants of the neighbourhood had complained of the manner in which the defendants conducted themselves.

(A laingh.) Mr. Goodwin inquired of the defendants Cooper and Ash whether they had auy goods or chattels upon which the fine and costs meld he levied ! Tlfey both replid that they had not. Mr. Goodman mid there were no mtocke to put them in at the prment time, but they would find that the law oould net be defied with impunity. The course that would be taken would be to lame a diatoms warrant under which any property belonging to them might be mined wherever it wee — The Lord Mayor told the defendants they were acting verb foolishly, and if they would only oow promise to re. from from breaking the law, he would not grant a distress warrant. . . Cooper said that if be gave up his employment, Mr. Hen derson would employ some one else, and he bad no other moans of obtaining his livelihood. The Lord Mayor said he could not be permitted to obtain his livinghy breaking the law. lie should not argue the matter with him, but merely throw out the suggestion he bad made foe his noaddemixon. The defendant refused to make the required promise, and said he would rather go the stooks. (Laughter.) The Lord Mayor told him he was very foolish—be knew there were no stocks, but if be would not take the advice that we. given him, he must abide by the COOMIqUeDCOII.

Mr. Walter Blackett said the prisoner had been an articled pupil of his for six months, but in oonsequence of irregular conduct and suspicion, by was discharged thr.e weeks since. After the prisoeer's departure he found that, with the ex ception of two, all his nutriments had been taken away. lie went the polio , and received their isitinutiosa, the EVANING, DECEMBER Walt being the apprebendon of 'the prieoner ' at No. Remingtou-skeet, ► Citrived. Let emieg he received ea envelope, containing four tickets, three of which had been redeemed, and these articles were his property. The envelope was in the WindwriUng of the pri mmer. There were other tickets presented to lid, which he believed to refer to instruments pledged by the prisoner, and his (prosecutor's) property, bet he had not bad time to wait upon the pawnbrokers to examine the articles. John Gawley, 314 A, a plain clothes dense, said he re ceived instructions to go to Remington-street, City-road, the prisoner having changed his lodgings. The prisoner was not there when he entered, and his mother produced three duplicates which she said were her sons. They related to architectural and surveying instruments. The prisoner subsequently came in, and when the tickets were produced he said they were the duplicate, of hie pledged property. Yr. Stockbridge asked for a remand, when Yr. Yardley thought they might obtain the required evi deoce in • short period. The cue could be at once summed up, and he only required that one ass two witnesses should have been wedged, who might than have been present, and the case could at ewe have base disposed of. Mr. Stockbridge held that from the didanoes in which the articles had been panted a little time should be al ! lowed. Yardley said he would allow some time. The case was not an intricate lISS, aad he thought that a remand until the following day would well meet the cam. Mr. Stockbridge tht that would meet his view, but he would have prefe rred d►y or two longer. The prisoner was accordingly re manded. MARLBOII6IJOH-STBSZT. Pierre M.iton, a Frenchman, living at 4, Framseivetreet. ear charged with stabbing, with a kWh, a Preach woman, named Marie de Lille, with intent to do her bodily harm, in I,!heerard-street. ilr7idwit;iiLewis, of (hest Marlborongh.etreet, ap peared for the prisoner, who i a tall, stout, midille•aged sine of respectable appearance. From the evidence for the prasseatioe, which was given at some length, it appeared that at shout one o'clock that men* a quarrel took Sloe between them, owing to the expressing his intention of leaving the prosecutrix fOrtrsociety of an English or Scotch female, and that on her trying to get him to go home with her, they Irwin been ltving together, he struck her a blow on the aide jug above the art, causing her great pain, and on I=str her band to the part, she found all her clothes and her hand fa of blood. She then felt fain 7n7 The knife, it was stated by the surgeon, was prevented going further by the ribs of the injured woman. Previous to this the prisoner had allowed the Scotch girl to assault Waterson, 144 C, said, hearing the cries of a female, he went up, and the prisoner maid, " Take the knife from the female, but he found the knife in the prisoner's right hand. The female said, " Oh," and then fell into his arms. He then noticed that her clothes were coveted with blood. He had turned on his light, and saw that the blood sores issuing from the side of her dress. He then told the prisoner that be roust come with him, and he refused for some time, but he ultimately compelled him to do so. The prosecutrix said she did not wish to give him in charge, but that three months' imprisonment would do him good, as if he did rat do it this time he would another. With the asainanos of another constable he got the prisoner to the station. The prosecutrir„ in answer to Mr. E. Lewis, said she did not take the knife out of the house herself, and did not Uneaten to kill herself on the previous night. She was mach excited. She had threatened frequently to kill her. self by taking poison, as she was so unhappy with him, and many times wished for poison to drink for the purpose. Mr. Lewis said he supposed it was useless for him to ad- dress the magistrate ; and Mr. Tyrwhitt said he had made up his mind to send the prisoner for trial. The prceecutrix reluctantly signed the deposition, haring stated several times in the course of the cue that she '' — loved the prisoner. -- The depositions, all but that of Dr. Tothill, who was not in attendance, being read over, the prisoner wsa com mitted for trial. The pa; o7se7has already undergone 12 months' imprison ment for throwing snuff in the eyes of a person, a jeweller, with the objeot of committing a robbery. Kr. Albert, the interpreter, read over the evidence to the *sow. SOUTHWARK. Among the night cleargee on the L division sheets placed before M.r. Combs, was an entry—" A female, name un known, charged with being . found drunk an d insensible, at half - past one in the monung." Sergeant Rackstraw, the acting inspector of the L divi sion in attendance, informed his worship that the unfortu nate woman died almost immediately after being brought to the station-house. Her name was unknown, and that was the reason of the entry being left blank. Mr. Casaba asked where she was found! Stephen Perrin, 121 L, did that abort twenty minutes past one o'clock that morning he was on duty in the Corn. wall.ros4, New-eut,when his attention was attracted to • female lying flat on the pavement, face downwards. He picked her up, and placed her on the stepof a door, when he found her entirely helpless and insensible from excessive drinking. He immediately procured assistance, and con. veyed her to the station-house in Tower-street, when Dr. Hateson was sent for. On the arrival of that gentleman, a minute oe two afterwards, he pronounced her to be dead. Mr. Comb. asked whether anything was known of the poor woman? Sergeant Rackstraw said that he understood that she had for some time gained a precarious subsistence by selling almanacks sod pencils at publiclonses. Ho was informed that she had been turned out of a public-house in the New cut a little after 12 o'clock, in a drunken state. He further informed hie worship that she was miserably clad, and ap peared to be half starved. He should think that her death was caused by excessive drinking and exhaustion for want of food. A coroner's inquest would, however, he held forthwith. Mr. Combo supposed that there bad been no violence to wards her. Sergeant Rackstraw replied in the negative. She bad evidently died from exhaustion. Mr. Combs marked the charge sheet accordingly. PORT-01PIPICE DELINQUZNCY. Yesterday, at the Liverpool issaizen, before Mr. Justice Keating, Matthew Bell was charged with Melding • post letter containing two half-sovereigns and twelve postage stamps from the Liverpool post-office, on the 9th instant. The prisoner had been a letter-carrier at Liverpool for five . ysers. Several money letters, addressed to various parties in Liverpool, having miscarried, certain tests were applied in order to discover the delinquent. On the Bth inst. Mr. Howson, the travelling inspector, enclosed in a letter addressed to "72, Camden-street, Liverpool-road, N.; two helfeovereigns and twelve postage stamps, all marked. This letter was not posted in the ordinary way, but was delivered to • clerk at the window which was used for taking in large package.. A clerk, being previously instructed, took charge of the letter at the window, sad gave it to the inspector of the carriers, who kept it locked up all night, and on the morn 'mo_f2he 9th lost. placed it, with 300 others, before the r that they might be sorted. On its being ascer tained diet no such letter as the one in question had been offered at any of the homes in Camden-street, search was made of the prisoner's house, where the stamps were found. When these stamps were brought to Mr. Howson, he applied a chemical solution to develop the marks which had been made with " invisible ink ;" those marks became perfectly visible, and Mr. Howson at once identified the stamps. These facts were proved by many witnesses. Counsel for the prisoner raised • point of law as to the man ner of posting the letter. His lordship reserved the legalcres. Hone for a higher court , and placed the facts before the jury. It appeared from the came cited that there was some doubt m to whether the peculiarity of the manner in which Mr. Howson posted the letter constituted it • post letter is the legal acceptation of that term. If is was not • poet letter, the crime of the priaoner--assuming that he load stolen the money and the stamps as alleg e—would be one of common larceny, and not felony. The Judge promised that the points raised should be considered ; and if the jury found the prisoner guilty, be should be dealt with according to the declaim of the higher court. The jury bad not returned their verdict when our parcel was despatched. TEL WTHERTOIfDI& —Prompted by human feelings, several gentlemen in Boston and the neighbour hood are taking a deep interest in obtaining signatures to the following petition to the Secretary of State, praying that the sentence of death under which the unhappy man Richardson now lies may be commuted to penal servitude for life. The memorial has already received a great number of signatures :—"That the prisoner, Thomas Richardson, was up to the time of his conviction considered an industrious and inoffensive man, and has been an inhabitant of Wyber ton for the last 20 yam. That your petitioners verily and sincbelieve, from the deposition of the deceased police cons WBrian, that the prisoner and himself were perfect strangers to each other, and therefore the prisoner did not entertain any premeditated malice or towards the deceased, but that the prisoner was returning from a Boston electioneering party, and under the excite ment of intoxic.ition committed the awful offence in an unguarded moment, upon being suddenly challenged and detected in an net of poaching. That your petitiosen beg to state that the heinous crime for which the prisoner has been sentenced to death is not associated with those shock ing and revolting atrocities that generally accompany the crime of murder, nor was perpetrated with any hone of pin or plunder. That while your petitioners would deprecate any interference with the due administration of justice, yet they humbly hope that the end and object of the pri soner's most dreadful punishment, and the salutary warning and lesson it is intended to import, will be as fully and efficaciously carried out by a commutation of the lenience of death to that of postal servitude for life."—Staieferd Mercury.

OOTTON.—Lrrearoot., Dec. 14.—Although later ail vices from America were considered favourable for holders, still snob he. been the uncertainty in the money market, together with the deism of trade in Manchester, that buyers with a fair choice have obtained a alight advantage in the current qualities of American. Brasil bas been la moderate request, without change in prime. Egyptian it diEcult of sale at but west's rates. The sales in Surat have been small, owing to the continued absence of the ex• port demand, and prioes are unaltered. Speculators have taken 7,450 American ; and there are reported for export, 2,580 American, 30 Egyptian, and 1,950 Surat. The market opened to-day with a fair demand ; estimated sales 10,000 bogies, of which 2,000 are for export and on speculation. OOTTON GOODS.—MANCHESTER, Dec. 14.—Almnet all kinds of goods continue very slow of sale. In long cloths, T cloths, and all kinds of annuities there is very little de. mancl for India, China, and the Levant, owing to andil 'towable commercial advice, from the two former, th , monetary difficulties connected with the latter ; but still with the large contracts in the hands of manufacturers there is business enough to prevent much depreciation of prices. The sales of printing cloths have been in small quantitie, but prices are steady. For 40. inch India shirtings there is not much inquiry, and prices are rather easier. Narrow shirtings unchanged. The sales of yarns have been lbnited, buyers pursuing a cautious policy, and pnoes are weaker, but more remunerative than those of OORN. —Canusrosu, Dec. 14. —There was • small sup Ply of wheat at market to-day, more particularly red - - a brisk demand caused an advance of S. per qr. on all descriptions, more particularly new red aad old white.
