TLC United States and Canadian Emigration Society, under a Dez.Kl. of Trust with the owner, has acquired 153,400 acres of Land -in Elopkial county, Eastern Texas, latitude 33 deg. north, longitude 95 deg. 93 of which district the county-town is named Tarrat. It is proposed, in conformity to the plan of the Association, an n d after reserving not exceeding one-fourth, to divide this Tract into 1,910 lots, of 80 acres each, and to locate thereon 1,910 families. With a view to an equitable distribution of the soil, each allotment to consist of about two-thirds Prarie or lightly-timbered Park-like pasture-land, not reqairing to be cleared for immediate cultivation. and one-third of contiguously situated timbered land, on the streams and head-waters of the Sabine and Sulphur fork of Red Rivers, which flow through this Tract. Each purchaser of one lot to be also entitled to a 'own-lot of one fourth of an acre in extent, the site of which is marked on the survey deposited in the Office of the Associatien. • The allotments are so arranged as to be as nearly as possible of equal value, so that priority of choice will become unnecessary. Thelpurchaser will have his location assigned to him in the follow ing manner, viz.: — The Tract is divided into mile-square sections, designate l by numbers. The Society reserves not to exceed one-fourth. Each section is divided into lots, numbered from one to eight, subdivided for assort ment in such a manner that as each purchaser will know, on his arrival on the spot, the exact location that he has purchased, no mis understanding can arise ; the Surveyor of the Association will have the absolute power to decide on all questions of boundary. On a day hereafter to be named, and of which due notice will be given before the sailing of the Emigrant, a drawing of allotments will take place. The names of purchasers will be put into one box, and the numbers of the lots in another : these numbers will correspond with two numbers on the survey, representing two-thirds, and one.third as before mentioned, and these numbers when so drawn will constitute his purchase. [lt is the intention of the Society to deviate from the proposed mode of allotment in favour of the first in 200 th os Emigran surrounding town site.] A Certificate of Title in accordance with the numbers binds to give him possession of the lot drawn on his arrival in Texas. The sum paid by the purchaser of each lot will Include, First.—A free passage from the port of embarkation to the place of settlement, with rations during the water passage and land jour.. ney, from New Orleans to the town of Tarrant. Secondly.—Six naontirs'. provisions from the time of his arrival there. Thirdly.—Two bullocks, one cow, and calf, and two pigs. Fourthly.—lmplements of husbandry an d seeds, Yi2.: a plough and gears, a log chain an d ox-yoke, a set of harrow-teeth, t nails, a hammer, an axe, a spade. a hoe, a grubbing•hoe, a saw, two augurs, two chisels, a Ja?,kplane, a scythe, a rake, and a pitchfork, with seeds for the first year's planting. Fifthly.—A log-house, eighteen feet square by ten feet in height, in the erection of which the Emigrant will have to assist. A detailed Statement and Schedule of the articles and necessaries provided by the Society, for the use of the Emigrant, will be deli vered to him with the Certificate of Title, on the payment of the sum specified, in fulfilment of his contract with the Society. Thus the • payment :of such sum as, according to the following estimate, will suit the circumstances f each, will en title the indi vidual or family, as the case may be, o to the iecesssy articles of subsistence, stock, and materials, for effecting their se tt h lemen Feet simple on the eighty acres of land, of w hich they have acquired te and obtained possession.

A R R I A E. M One half the world are desolately single, and the other supposing them married, questionably contented. Diffidence, or a sense of right determine the former, and miscalculated hopes em o:tter the latter. The solitary one may shield himself under the plea of caution and worldly prudence, and the indissoluble, regret an romprosing hurry ; but the truth lies deeper. Physical incapacity, and broken health, are the great hindrances te domestic happiness and social content. The dowry should net be the only marriage set tlement. Honour and justice demand that health should form an item in the compact ; it alone dignifies the alliance. Blighted hopes er neglect weand more sorely than poverty or misfortune. Reader, if these surmises concern you, procure Dr. CULVERWELL'S little MEMOIRS "On Single and Married Life, " pub. in 2 vols., Is. each (by post, in stamps, Is. 6d. each). Let no imaginatively refined, or prudish feeling deter you, by their titles, nor be hindered oy misinterpretation of their supposed contents, from obtaining them. They are not intended certainly for mere idle curiosity, kut for the closet perusal of those mere deeply interested, to whom they are offered as antagonistic to the empyrical trash put forth as the above subjects, by unqualified authors, which alone or together, are a disgrace to the age. Furthermore, two other Ittle publications claim your attention (same price Is. each, by post Is. 6d.) called " What to Eat, Drink, and Avoid," and " How to be Happy."

THE COUNTRY MARKETS. WAKEFIELD, MAaca 30.—The supplies of wheat and beans are large, and good of other articles. There is a mode rate business passing in wheat at the prices of this day se'n night. No change in the value of barley ; good English being scarce, sells readily. Oats, shelling, and beans are on very limited demand, and somewhat cheaper. New.

NEWBURY, MARCH 29.—With a moderate supply of wheat, we have rather more doing than for some few weeks past, but we can note no improvement in prices from the low depressed rate so long prevailing. Barley, moderate supply ; fine malting, of which the quantity offering is very small, fully supports late rates; grinding almost unsaleable, but seed qualities in fair request at late rates. Beans, peas, and oats, short supply, but fully equal to the demand. Late rates barely supported. Seeds sold slowly at late rates. LIVERPOOL MARCH 30.—At this day's market there was a fair attendance of town and country trade and some consi. derable isles of wheat were effected, but in most cases a reduc tion of Id per 701bs. had to be submitted to. Oats and oat meal moved off slowly at late rates. In barley and peas there was little done ; but Egyptian beans must be noted dearer. Only a moderate demand was experienced for barrel flour, and 23s per barrel must be quoted as the top price of Western Canal. Indian corn met with a free sale, and rather raore money was realised for prime yellow. EXETER, MARCH 30.—Cattle—The market to-day has been a very large one, a greater number of beasts and sheep of all kinds having been driven in than for many weeks previous. Fat beef sold at from 8s toSs 6d per score. Cows and calves plentiful, at from 9/ to 14f. Barreners 55 per score, and good fresh ones a trifle higher. Graziers complain that poor stock is comparatively higher than fat. Steers, 9/ to 111 each ; working oxen, 251 to 30/per pair; butchers' calves, 4d to sirl per lb. The best fat wether hog sheep were worth 6d per lb ; good fat wethers, sbd ; ewes, 5d per lb. Store hogs, 25s to 30s each ; couples, 35s to 401; ditto.

Corn Exchange—Not much business has been done to-day. English wheat has ranged for best samples, from 6s to 6s 46d per bushel, but we have only heard of one miller who has given the latter price. Foreign red wheat, 44s to 465 ; white ditto, 48s to 50s per quarter; barley, 3s 9d to 4s; oats, 2s 2d to 2s 6d per bushel. Fine flour, 34s to 37s per sack of 2801bs.

The weather from Saturday to Tuesday was fine, although cold, for the season, with foggy mornings and evenings. On Wednesday, there was a change for the worse, and yesterday was as cold, foggy, wet, and dismal a day as November itself could produce for the life of it.

Yesterday evening, a little after nine o'clock, a man, supposed to be the murderer, was brought to the police office in High-street, by Mr. Miert Samuel, outfitter, cor ner of Stewart-street, Great Howard-street. The pri- soner had been several times during the day at the shop of Mr. Samuel, offifing a gold watch for sale. Mr. Samuel suspected, from the urgency with which he pressed the sale, that the watch had not been honestly obtained, and asked the mart to walk to the police office. That he consented to do, and when he reached the office his general appearance raised the suspicion that he was the person for whom such anxious search had been made. His dress was changed, however. In stead of a hat he wore a cap. He bed a pair of new blue trousers on, new stockings, anerii:iiew silk hand kerchief in his poeket. His- hair is cut off straight be hind, giving it the appearance of being short. The prisoner answers exactly the description given of the murderer. He had a wild and confused look, and ap peared somewhat in liquor. When asked if he had been drinking, he said he had taken a few glasses. He acknowledged that he was at Tranmere on Tuesday; and when asked where he was on Wednesday, he said he was about the docks. The boy M‘Dermott, who delivered the letter for him at 20, Leveson-street, and who had conversed with him for some minutes, and had seen him again at the house, picked him out from amongst eight other men, and speaks positively to him. Again, the prisoner was placed in the middle of feiurteen men, and another man, who had seen him on Wednesday, was asked to pick - him out if he were present. After exesarhing.themen, he said the man with the cap (the prisoner) was the per son, if he were amongst them,.but he should not like to speak positively unless he saw him with a hat on his head. Whilst standing amongst the crowd of men, the prisoner betrayed considerable forced levity, remarked that the police should be sure of a man before they ap prehended him on suspicion, and made other confused observations. There is a peculiarity about his mouth and teeth, which is more apparent when ho speaks, that would render his identification a matter of greater cer tainty by ono who had conversed with him. The prisoner, when asked his name, said it was John Gleeson Wilson, and that he was an engineer. Mr. Cox's boy failed to identify the prisoner. When Mr. Dowling took off the cap from the head of the man he seized hold of it, and said, " That's mine; I paid for that with my own money." (From a Second Edition of the Liverpool Mercury.) The man, John Gleeson Wilson, who was apprehended to-night, has just been ordered by Mr. Dowling to be locked up on the charge of wilful murder. Without at all attempting to prejudge the case, we may state there can be no doubt he is the man for wiom search has been made. A person answering his description exactly called at the house of Miss Harrison, 19, Upper Pitt street, on Wednesday afternoon, and asked far lodgings, and the same afternoon he offered the gold watch for sale at Tranmere. The mother of Mrs. Henricksen, who arrived in town from Hull to-night, has identified the watch and chain found in the possession of the pri soner as those belonging to her daughter. A puhse also found upon the prisoner has been identifid by tie char woman who was in the habit of washing at the house as the property of Mrs. Henrickson. The prisonerstated he bought the purse at Bristol, and also one of theshirts, of which he had three on his back, one of them laving lately undergone partial washing about the sleeve,. Mr. Superintendent Clough having cautioned the prisoner, told him he was charged with the wilful murder of two children. He replied, in a half-careless, half-impetuous manner, "I am satisfied to stand my trial for it." Mr. Dowling ordered the prisoner to strip, and stains of blood were found, upon his black silk handkerchief. 'As before stated, he had three shirts on, his trousers, cep, and neckerchief were new. On Wednesday even ing he lodged in a house in Porter-street, in this tovn where he had given a shirt stained with blood to se washed. Police-officer Toole went to this house after his apprehension, and there found a hat with crape on. This hat answered exactly the description given in the bills, and when placed on the head of the prisoner, con. siderably changed his personal appearance. When the hat was shown to him he said, " That is mine; I'll prove it." The prisoner has only been married a few months. He left his wife at Mr. Lewis's house, Lower Tranmere, about two months ago, and where he has been since his friends were not aware, although they heard he had been at London, Bristol, and other places. A police officer was dispatched to Lower Tranmere, and he ob tained a letter in his own handwriting, which had been addressed by the prisoner to his wife. On comparing the writing with the directions of the letter found near the pond at Windsor by Mr. Caine, they were found to correspond. When asked where ha s got the _trousers; the prisoner said, " That is for you to find out." The boy from whom he took the potatoes at the door, now speaks positively to the prisoner, and in seeing the differ ence in the countenance which is made by substituting the hat for the cap, there is no wilder that a mistake at first in the identity should be the aJnsequence. Late as the - hour was, the news of the apprehension of the sup posed murderer spread through the town, and there was a considerable number of person; in the neighbourhood of the police-office. Mr. Dowlin;, at the time the news reached him, was at the Collegiate Institution hearing Jenny Lind, and when the intelligence was conveyed to him, it soon was whispered about Ilea an important com munication had reached the head :onstable, and consi derable sensation was evinced in tie ball. The prisoner appeared exceedingly restless and con fused. The fingers and thumbs of his hands he moved quickly together, and although w h en the hat was brought into his presence he betrayed little change in his countenance, all his former levi) , disappeared. When asked to what country he beloneee he replied, to Tips perary, and added that he wa s Ater. The prisoner has a country look, and speaks thickly, No part of this horrible traged' is more remarkable than the so far concluding seine. That plunder was one of the objects of the murderer, no doubt now remains, but that a man (if he be the person) guilty of s o enormius a crime, should hover about, as it were, that place where detec tion was inevitable, and that he would himself agree to walk to Bridewell, to clear himsef froth the suspicion of stealing the watch, are some of those inexplicable circumstances connected with the dreegfal crime of mur der which can be accounted for by no human being; but it proves that— " Murder, though it bath no tongi s e, Will speak with m os t m i ra culouiergan." LrvEqoOL, FRIDAY. The prisoner John Gl eeson Wilsontas this morning taken to the Southern Hospital, when Henrickson's servant girl immediately id en tified hill; as the man who had attacked her and murdered the c hildren. He was then re examined before Mr. Y r/0M 0 p; an d remanded to Saturday (this day). He lieari the appearance of a seaman. CITY COURT FOR 711 it _RECOVERY OF SMALL DEBTS--March 28. TAYLOR V. DENIS MOYLAN, ESQ.-SUING THE JUDGE OF A COUNTY conwr. Mr. R. Taylor, of the firm otTaylor and Co., printers, applied to Mr. Bullock, the judge of the court, for an order against Denis Moyla 4 Esq., the Judge of the Westminster County Court Or the Recovery of Small Debts, for the payment of ce r tain fees incurred in a case in which the applicant was.pisifitiff'and Mr. Moylan was defendant. On the clay before that appointed for the hearing of the case the amount of ie debt contracted by Mr. Moylan, and part of the ex penses incurred, had been paid, but there were other expenses which sprang from the course adopted by the iefendant, and which it ap peared by all the rules of connion justice the defendant was bound to discharge. Mr. Taylor's claim upon Air. Moylan was for printing executed eight years ago. Re had repeatedly applied for the amount without effect, and the defendant had at length given notice that he would plead the statute of limitations in answer to the demand; that subsequently a bearing of the case had been appointed to take place in that court, and that the night before the amount of the demand was paid into courtii notwithstanding the special plea alluded to. Mr. Taylor said that Mr. Moylat bad offers& to pay the debt, exclusive of the expense; upon finding that the claim was*not likely to be relinquished, but the proposition was rejected, for expense and trouble had been incurred. It had bee% necessary to sub peena witnesses to prove the handwriting of Mr. Moylan, and to exhibit the post mark of a letter, the date of which proved that the debt was not affected by the statute of limitations, as it proved the elistence of the debt within eight years. He had been obliged to employ an attorney to meet a gentleman who rust be presumed to be well acquainted with the practice of the court, inas much as ho was a judge in a similar tribunal. He had also been obliged to go to the expense of sending notices round to his witnesses not to attend on the 23d inst.; as the money had been paid into wart, and their attend ance was thus rendered unnecessary. These 'expenses Mr. Moylan was certainly bound, but bad refused, to pay; and it was hoped that an order would be issued to compel the payment. Mr. Taylor's attorney subnitted that there was nothing in the Act of Parliament to prevent the judge from exercising a discretion in the case, if it happened that any omission of form intervened. Mr. Jupp observed that the application for the addi tional costs sought by Mr. Taylor ought to have been made before, and referred to the dates in his books. Mr. BULLOCK said the only question appeared to be, whether the plaintiff had made his application in time? Mr. Taylor's attorney said he hoped that if his Honour had any objection to make un order fur the payment of the costs, he would grant a rule to show cause why the deft ndant refused to pay the extra costs into Court. Mr. BULLOCK—Of the validity of the claim there is no doubt. The point is whether you are in time. You may take a rule to show causa At the annual general naeiting of the Royal Astro nomical Society, Sir John F. V. Herschel! presented to that body a finely-executed marble bust of their late President, Francis Baily, D.Q.L. (the gift of Miss Bally, his only surviving sister), with ,an appropriate address, which appeared.in the society's transactions for Febru -180. IRELAND. (BY ELECTRIC TELEGRAPH.) . DUBLIN, FRIDAY EVENING.—The weather continues severe here, the llublin 4 mountains are covered with snow, and the whole country has the appearance of a second winter. The wind is still at N.E., and no .pros pect of a change. THE CORN TRADE.—There was a dull market to-day at the Corn Exchange for all descriptions, but oats met a fair demand, and secondary qualities were rather dearer. There was more inquiry for Indian corn, and a trifling advance was realised. THE RATE IN AID BILL.—From the evidence given on Wednesday by Mr. Twiileton before the Select Committee, the opposition of the rate in aid are in hopes that Munster will abandon the measure. DREADFUL MURDER.—An industrious poor farmer named Curley was barbarously murdered yesterday, near Athlone, by a party of seven ruffians, who first set fire to an outhouse adjoining Curly's dwelling, and on the latter making his appearance he was fired at by two or three of the gang, and fell mortally wounded. The unfortunate man was over 70 years of age. Tzwissirssrox OF CoNvicTs.—One hundred males and one hundred females were embarked this day at the North Wall for transmission to Spike Island, where they will remain until shipping is provided for their ultimate destination, New South Wales.

At Jamaica, things were represented as being in a very depressed state. DEMERARA. We have received files of the Colonist of British Guiana up to the 17th of February. Governor Barkly arrived at George Town on the 13th, and immediately entered upon the duties of his office. Great expectations seem to he entertained by the colonists of the benefits which they will derive from the rule of Governor Barkly. The Colonist gives the following account of the crops:— " The improved state of the home markets has given a slight impetus to produce here. Grinding has com 'menced on a few scattered estates, with good prospects of the canes yielding well; but though the weather has been very lavourablei for_ taking off the crop, we are sorry to say that many are in too backward a con dition to avail themselves of it. We think this year's crop is likely to be a late one, and taking it in bulk, we fear it will also prove to be a reduced one also." COURT CIRCULAR.

JAMES'S THEATRE.—Last night the final per formance, before Easter, of the Opera Comique at this theatre, took place, when Auber's Diamans de la Cou• ronne was given in admirable style, Charton singing as charmingly as ever. It is due to Mr. Mitchell again to praise the skill with which he has rendered the resources of his company available, and the excellence of his general arrangements. The artists have been so well selected, that a permanent company could scarcely have produced so varied a repertoire with so little sameness of effect, or with so general a perfection in the ensemble. The band is unexceptionable, and in the choruses there has been a manifest progressive improve ment. Mr. Mitchell's programme is still far from being exhausted. Mr. Hudson, M.P., has returned to town and ap peared in his place in the House of Commons. MR. JERMY'S WILL.—The will of the late unfor tunate Mr. Jermy, sen., of Norwich, was deposited in Doctors' Commons on Thursday, and the property was sworn under 9,000/. DEATH OF THE REV. HENRY CHAPLIN.—blush gloom has been cast over Stamford and its neighbour hood by the demise of the Rev. Henry Chaplin, Vicar of Ryhall, on Thursday week, after a short but severe ill ness, in his 59th year. The complaint which termi nated thus fatally was inflammation of the chest, acce lerated, it is said, by grief for the loss of his eldest son a few weeks back. Mr. Chaplin was greatly beloved by his parishioners for his unvarying affability and libe rality. He was brother to Rober Chaplin, Esq., of Blankney, one of the largest, if not the largest, landed proprietor of the county of Lincoln, to whose estates deceased, had he been the survivor, would have succeeded; consequently his eldest surviving sou is now the heir a pparent.—Lincolnshire Chronicle. EXECUTION.—MAIDSTONE, MARCH 29.—Millan, who was convicted for the murder of an old man at Bethersden, in this county, was executed, pursuant to his sentence, at the county gaol yesterday. The culprit was brought out a few minutes before twelve o'clock, and after praying a short time the fatal bolt was drawn, and be died withcut a struggle. He was only seventeen years of age, and appeared to meet his fate without re gret. The prisoner Sheepwash has been respited on ac count of his evident weakness of intellect. He will be placed in a lunatic asylum. THE FORTHCOMING VACANCY FOR SOUTH NOTTS. —NEWARK, THURSDAY.--.The influential landowners connected with this constituency have this week had re peated consultations as to who shall,be selected as their representative, in the room of Colonel Rolleston, who has signified his intention to resign; and it is confidently stated, that Robert Bromley, Esq., eldest son of Sir Robert Howe Bromley, Bart., of Stoke-hall, has con sented to offer himself as a candidate. Mr. Bromley's political views are said to be Liberal Conservative, opinions which will hardly coincide with those of the mut-Wow' vf 019 09tith THE FRENCH REPUBLIC We have received the Paris papers of yesterday. The Committee on Foreign Affairs re-assembled on Thursday, and after a long and warm discussion resolved to send a deputation to the PRE±IDENT of the Republic to recommend the occupation of Northern Italy by a French force. The following was said to be the resolution adopted by the Committee : " The National Assembly, jealous of ensuring the dignity of France, as well as the maintenance of peace, founded on the respect of nationalities, concurring in the ►sentiments expressed at the sitting of Wednesday by the President of the Council, and confiding in the Executive power, declares that if the Government should think proper to support its negotiations by the temporary oc cupatio❑ of a portion of Upper Italy, it may rely on the co-operation of the National Assembly." The Patrie announces the arrival of CHARLES AL BERT at Lyons. The Constitutionnel says— " It is announced that the Government has sent by telegraph to Toulon the order for the embarkation of the division, which is partly there and partly at Mar seilles. This division is ordered to Civita Vecchia." In the sitting of the Assembly yesterday, the Mi nister for Foreign Affairs announced that the French Government had received intelligence of the conclu sion of an armistice between the new King of PIED MONT and Marshal RADETZKT. Until the: de finite conclusion of peace, Alessandria is to be occupied by a .mixed garrison of Piedmontese and Austrian troops. _ • It appears from the dispatches which have been re ceived by the French Government, that when RA• DETZKT was informed of the abdication of CHARLES ALBERT, he at once consented to the armistice which had been proposed by Mr. ABERCROMBY and M. Bois LE COMTB. The words of Marshal RADETZKY are stated to have been as follows: " The abdication of the King, who, unjustly and with out any motive, twice declared war against my Sove reign, is the most honourable amende that Austria could demand. Far from wishing to weaken or embarrass the new King on his advent to his throne, by the military occupation of Turin by my troops, I shall be happy to act towards the young monarch with all the respect and delicacy due to one so nearly connected with the house of Austria." lie has consequently agreed not to enter Turin, and the King of SARDINIA has consented to give or ders for the immediate withdrawal of the fleet from the Adriatic. The peace is to be negotiated under the auspices of the plenipotentiaries of France and England. The new King, VICTOR EMANUEL, en tered Turin on the 27th. During the trial at Bourges on Thursday, the counsel for the prisoners was repeatedly interrupted by the President, for making use of unbecoming language. " We are assured," says the Constitutionncl, " that M. FORTU ROUEN, Charge d'Affaires of the French Republic at Canton, has written to France for two ships of war, as a precaution against certain events which are feared in China." It is stated in a letter from the Isle de la Reunion (Bourbon) that in consequence of a disease in the sugar cane, the crop of sugar this year is reduced by at least one-third. A rise has taken place in the price of sugar in Paris. PARIS BOURSE.—FRIDAY, Makncri 30. THREE O'CLOCK.—Tho French Funds roAe no less than 2f. to-day, in consequence of its being known that Marshal Radetzky had agreed to an armistice on the conditions proposed by the English and French Minis ters. The Funds were exceedingly buoyant all day. The Piedmontese and Roman Funds have also improved. In short, this was ono of the brightest days the Paris Bourse has seen since the revolution of February. Ex change on London (30 days), 25 25 money; ditto (90 days), 25 12 money.

The intelligence received direct from the seat of war is only to the 25th, and consequently is not of so late a date as that which the Government has received, and which was announced in the House of Lords last ThePiedniontese Gazette publishes a supplement, dated the 25th, containing several bulletins received on the 24th. The first is a mere repetition of the account of the attack upon Vercelli on the 23d. The second gives accounts up to three o'clock P.m. of the 24th, stating that the roar of artillery had been heard at Casteggio and Lu, near the Po. A third bulletin, dated the 25th, at three A as, states that none of the messengers sent from head-quarters had been able to reach the capital ; that, at half•past one A.m., one of the officers sent byGovernment had returned, without being able to penetrate to the Piedmontese head-quarters, or to receive positive information respecting the army; but a letter from the syndic of Casale informs the Go vernment that a body of Austrians having appeared there, the municipality sent to parley with the Aus trian General. The latter having demanded the evacuation of the castle, the governor refused. By another letter from the syndic of Trino, it appears that the castle of Casale was subsequently attacked at half-past eleven, and that the attack lasted till three Pal., when the Austrians proceeded to Moreno, with the intention of marching upon Trino. The supple ment also contains a circular to the curates, dated the 24th, inviting them to use their influence in call ing to arms all those who are capable to bear them, and even recommending the country people to use their agricultural implements instead of arms. It is said in private letters from Turin, dated the 25th, that RADETZKY published a proclamation after the battle of Novara, announcing that he came not to plunder the country, but to save it from anarchy. He, however, threatened to burn Turin if he met with resistance. His advanced posts on the 25th were only four leagues distant from the capital. It appears that during the battle the Queen's Brigade and the Cuma Brigade, commanded by General BUSSETTI, dispersed at the first shots, the General himself abandoning the field after receiving a slight scratch. All the other brigades fought nobly. On the 23d a court-martial was held in the fortress of Alessendria on General RAMORINO, who was con victed of high treason, and shot the following morning. The Milan Gazette of the 23d publishes the first bulletin of the Austrian army, in which it is stated that the Austrian army crossed the Ticino at Pavia on the 20th at noon, and that a desperate conflict took place at Mortara on the 21st, ending in a vic tory on the part of the Austrians ; and that another engagement took place at the same time at Gambolo ; the result of the latter is not stated. The Corriere Mercantile of Genoa, of the 24tb, states from Rome that, when, in the sitting of the Constituent Assembly of the 16th, MAZZIANI began to speak of the sacrifices the war would call f or , a shower of ear-rings and jewels fell from the tribune reserved for the ladies. Letters from Venice of the 16th, quoted by the Genoa Gazette, state that a small Venetian fleet had joined the Sardinian fleet, to assist in an expedition, the object of which was suspected to be Trieste. General PEPE was preparing for an expedition on the Venetian continent. Letters from Rome, of the 21st, state that before the end of the month the Republic will have 30,000 muskets, besides those she has purchased in France and Belgium. At the end of the :week the national foundry will turn out two pieces of artillery, com pletely mounted and furnished. In two months we shall have artillery sufficient for an army of 40,000 men. Fourteen more battalions of the National Guard are mobilised. The troops have received orders to march on the Po. The Roman 211 - oniteur announces that the Republic will not acknowledge any passports, visas, &c., ema nating from the nuncios, who have now no authority as representatives of the Roman States. NAP•LES AND SICILY. The Bulldog steam• frigate left Naples for Palermo on.t4e.2sth with new conditions of a more favourable character. It was said that Mr. TEMPLE and M. DE RETNEVAL would themselves proceed to Palermo, although it is not probable that the Sicilians will accept any conditions short of absolute independence. The people are actuated by the most patriotic spirit. The following extract from a Palermitan paper, de scribing the doings in that city on the 17th, will show the state of feeling of the Sicilians with regard to FERDINAND : " Words fail us, and our emotion is so great that we cannot describe what we have seen and observed, said Wan Part in. Who country is auger. The country has sent forth an appeal to her children teaefend her. What have you witnessed ? Princes, dukes, barons, counts, ministers, judges, priests, monks, soldiers of the National Guard, women, children, the old and the halt, all assembled in the Piazza della Vittoria with spades, pickaxes, hammers, every kind of instrument of maiming. And why was this prodigious number of people there assembled? To make fosses, barricades, forts, mines. Every one runs, every one flies to devote himself to his country ; nor is there any distinction of noble or plebeian, young or old, woman or man. Every one gives his work—his arm, his hart—his substance. Assembled yesterday morning at six o'clock in the Piazza della Vittoria, this prodigious number of people, amounting to more than 30,000, and furnished with every instrument' of masonry, walking through the Toledo in the most perfect order, divided in companies and battalions, carrying at the head of each its banner, borne either by the ministers of the altar or by citizens with musical bands. And here, hew is it possible to describe the emotion of the people, the acclamations of the women, and of those who thronged together in the balconies? A general evriva resounded every where, intermingled with repeated imprecations on the tyrant ; and these blessed suns of Etna, in the drunken ness of their enthusiasm for the salvation of their country, marched to the place pointed out to them by the engineers for the con. struction of defences. We cannot describe the im. posing scenes which took place in the evening. The return of labour showed the true spirit of the Sicilian. The women marched to the sound of musical instru ments, the men of all classes followed, singing the tremen dous hymn, Della pelle del 13orbono it tainburo do bliain format' (of the skin of the Bourbon wi.l we make our drum), until they arrived beneath the windows of the Minister of Foreign Affairs, when Ruggiero Set timo, the idol of Sicily, spoke patriotic words to the people. In the evening there was a general illumina tion; and thus finished thi s grea t es t o f d emonstrations-- thus Palermo responded to the ultimatum of the infa mous Ferdinand of Naples—of that Ferdinand who was not the legitimate Sovereign of Sicily, by virtue of the 104th article of the treaty of Vienna; but possessed of the simple title only, as of Jerusalem. We await the moment of the rupture of the armistice, to make al slaughter of the Neapolitans —our only example to tyrants." TURKEY. Intelligence from Constantinople has been received to the 15th. Rua. Pecul, has been dismissed from his post of Seraskier, and disgraced by the SULTAN. NIEUMET ALI Pacua, Grand Admiral, has been ap pointed Generalissimo, and SULETMAN PACHA has been . named Capita!' Pacha ; other changes are ex pected, so that the character of the future Ministry is at present doubtful. The cause of RIZA'S disgrace is said to be owing to differences between him and the Generalissimo respecting Wallachia, the latter having made great military preparations for taking decisive steps with regard to that province, without submitting his plans to Riza. The idea of a war with Russia is very popular among the Turks. The Journal du Commerce of Antwerp says—. " Several couriers from the British Cabinet, who passed through Berlin within the last few days, were the bearers of dispatches, in which Lord PONSONEt; the British Envoy at Constantinople, informs Lord PALMERSTON that all the representations which ha has made relative to the occupation of the Danubian Principalities by Russia have been repelled by that power ' • and that th e P or t e h as a dd resse d i tse l f to him (Lord PONSONBY), begging him to demand the active support of his Government to repel the encroach., meets of the Russians."
