UXLEY'S PARISIAN SHIRTS.- These is but one reason to be assigned for the difficulty experienced by gentlemen in being fitted with Shirts. It is the im perfect rules hitherto applied to Shirt making. This has led many gentlemen to suppose the difficulty to arise from some peculiar for mation of the neck or chest. Such opinions are most erroneous. It Is essential that a Shirt should set with ease and comfort, the front remaining smooth with every change of position. H. and Co respectfully solicit inspection, and feel confident of giving satisfac tion to every customer. HUXLEY'S REGISTERED SHIRT COLLAR is giaranteed to fit the neck without a crease.

COURT OF EXCHEQUER, April lg. (Before the LORD CHIEF BARON, Mr. Baron PARSE, and Mr. Baron ROLFE ) CORBETT V. SIR GEORGE GREY, BART. This was an action brought by Mr. W. Cobbett, a prisoner in the Queen's Prison, against her Majesty's Secretary of State for the Home Department, for an assault and false imprisonment, alleged to have been committed on the plaintiff within the precincts of the Queen's Prison. The case was tried at Guildhall, before the Lord Chief Baron, when a verdict was entered ge nerally for the defendant. _ _ Mr. - Cobbett, in person, now moved for a rule to show cause wby the verdict for the defendant should not be set aside, or a verdict entered for the plaintiff, upon the general issue. We understood the plaintiff to con tend, that the verdict passed for the defendant on tho issue raised by the plea of " the general issue by statute," on the ground, that the defendant was a privileged person, and was entitled to demand that the action should be brought in the county where the wrong was alleged to have been committed. Here the venue was laid in London, and it was said it ought to have been laid in Surrey, where the Queen's Prison is situated. Mr. Cobbett insisted that a wrong view was taken of the Acts of Parliament relating to the venue, at the trial of the cause. _ _ _ After Mr. Cobbett had addressed the Court at great length, Mr. Baron PARKE intimated that the Court would take time to consider whether the plaintiff was entitled to a rule, although their decision on this point would only involve a question as to a small amount of costs, as there were other pleas going to the substance of the actio❑ on which the defendant must retain his verdict. Mr. Cubbett said the matter involved a principle. Judgment deferred. CENTRAL CRIMINAL COURT. OLD COUI?7'. (Before Mr. Baron PLATT.) his determination to represent the case to the Poor-law Commissioners, and ie the meantime gave orders which secured a supply of refreshments to the poor creature and their admission into the union. SOUTHWARK. Daniel Donovan and Stephen Powell were brought be fore Mr. Cottingham for re-examination, charged with criminally assaulting Mrs. Eliza Seal, the wife of a commercial traveller, in Coleman-street, and also with stealing from her person a brooch, ring, and four shillings. Mr. Binns attended for the prisoners. When the prisoners were placed at the bar, Mr. Cot tingham was informed by policeman 167 M, that the prosecutrix was not in attendance, although both she and her uncle, who accompanied her to the court on the former day were aware, that the further examination was to take place that day. Mr. COTTINGHAM said that in a case of this descrip tion, where the lives and liberty of two men were placed in peril by a complaining party, on an accusation of such a serious nature, she ought not on any account to have neglected coming f orwar d, an d h e a dded, that he was determined to comp e l h er atten d anc e. The Magistrate inquired if th e l an dl a d y o f t h e W e l s h Harper was pre • sent, who, it was a ll ege d, h a d see n the parties together in that house The answer being in the affirmative, Mrs. Donne then ascended the witness box, aad on being sworn, she stated in answer to the magistrate, that on the night of Sunday week, about nine o'clock, Donovan, accompanied by a woman, with a handker chief tied round her head, entered the house together, and he called for a pint of half and half, which they drank together at the _bar. That while in the house the woman, who seemed to be under the influence of liquor, endeavoured to conceal her face by holding up a hand kerchief to it and turning her back to witness, who, how . ever, thought she sh ou ld be enabled to identify her if she saw her again. The prisoner Donovan and the woman talked familiarly together while standing at the bar, and he advised her to apply eye water to her eye. Mr. Binns said that the latter circumstance showed, at all events, that the complainant was the woman, as it appeared that she had received a black eye from her husband on the night (Saturday) that it was reported he turned her out of the house. That the evidence of the witness distinctly proved that she did not appear to be under any restraint while in the public-house, for she drank and left the house ,with the same man that had accompanied her there. Mr. COTTINGHAM said that, in the absence of the complainant, it was impossible for him to proceed with the investigation that day. He, however, would not allow such a charge to pass over without further in quiry, and directed the policeman to call upon the com plainant again, a nd inform her th a t if she failed in her attendance on Wednesday, a warrant would be issued to compel her. Mr. Binns said that the prisoners could procure bail for their appearance on the next examination, and he trusttd the magistrate would accept of sureties for them, particularly after hearing what took place in the Welsh Harper public-house. Mr. CorrniGnast, however, rejected the application, saying that he believed the complainant's account of the outs age. The prisoners were then removed from the bar. MAR YLEBONE. A MAN DISGUISED AS A WOMAN. —E , W oo d a ll was charged with having stolen a silk handkerchief, the pro perty of Mr. George Peach, a clerk , . residing a t West bourne-grove, Bayswater. The prisoner was attired in a mousseline-de-laine dress and slate-coloured polka, and a straw bonnet and black veil. — Mr. - BROUGHTON (to the prisoner)—What are you ? Prisoner—l am a ballet-dancer, and am known at several theatres. lam now engaged at the St. James's. Mr. BROUGHTON.—And does the manager know that you are going about in the disguise of a woman ? Pri soner—lt was only done for a lark, sir, and I have my own clothes underneuth. Sergeant Walker, 5 1), deposed that on the previcus morning, between one and two o'clock he was spoken to by Mr. Peach, who, pointing to the prisoner, said, .‘ That girl has stolen my handkerchief from my great-coat pocket." Witness wont up to the prisoner and told her what she was charged with, when she said, " D on 't t a k e e to the station-house , I want to speak to you, and will give you something to drink. lam no girl, but am m a young man living in Pickering-place? The young man who had lost the handkerchief also told him that he had been in the company of the prisoner for nearly an hour, and that he (prisoner) had put his arms round him many times; his belief was that the prisoner was a girl. Mr. BROUGHTON inquired whether the owner of the handkerchief was in attendance, and he was answered in the negative. The prisoner, in answer to the charge, said "I was not aware of the risk I was running, and if I had in tended anything wrong by putting on female apparel I should not have had my own things on underneath. The person who said he had lost his handkerchief was rather the worse for drink; when he met me he said, "Are you going home alone, miss," and I said Yes." Ile would not let me go, or I should have been glad to have n i l t n ever Io af ha onuy I p dh u a t r havemw o c m oa m e c n tie ' n s dg c so l o o u t tf h oo e of s l ii o st y b e for, n ow e r . t e h a a andbguo m d d o ds fno didn't r d. t I Mr. BROUGHTON looked upon the offence in a serious light. The assumption of women's attire by a man was at all events an offence contra bonos mores, and from such practices great abominations• rob ably • might pro a y arise. The prisoner was bailed, himself in 40L and two sureties in 30Z each, for his being again forthcoming at the court; and it was d i rected that a su mmons should be issued against Mr. P eaeh, whose evidence is material in the case. FATAL OCCORREINCE.—J. Wardley, WESTMINSTER. aged 49, a la bourer, wa s c h arged before Mr. Broderip on suspicion of having caused the death of Anne, his wife, b y as saulting her. Caroline Do ne ll y, a woman in bumble c i rcumstances, stated that the pri soner and his wife occup i e d an apart ment immediately over hers, at No. 1, Leg-court, Peter street,. Westmi ns t er. On Saturday evening, at about tea-t i me , she heard t h e prisoner and his wife quarrelling in their room, shortly after which the latter left him, and as she came down stairs made use of angry words. She then passed along by witness's door, and went out. In about 15 or 20 minutes more she again heard them quarrelling up in their room, and on listening she beard what she thought to be a tremendous combat between them, and i she mad e use of very low language to h er husband, im mediately after which there was a heavy fall which shook th e pl ace. As witness was going out shortly afterward s s h e heard a heavy sigh, w hi ch she thought proceeded from the prisoner's apartment. She paid no particular attention to this, and went to market; but upon her return in two hours found that prisoner's wife was dead. A great deal of evidence was gone in, but it appeared that a post modem examination had not yet been made; and the prisoner was remanded for a week. LONDON INSTIT UTION.--.-ELECTRO BIOLOGY.--Tho last soiree of the season took place on Wednesday night, when the institution was attended by nearly eight hun dred of the proprietors and literary and scientific tors. During the evening Mr. Alfred Smee delivertid 3 a lecture on electro biology, or t h e relation of electricity to the functions of animal lif e , upon whichsuhj.ecthe has • recently published an el a b ora t e treatise , ° ranimal brain, a life it is necessary to have a central portion arterial or peripheral or body, both supplied with bright blood, and connected together by nerve fibres. Mr. Smee traced the analogy between this arrangement that of a double boltaic circuit , and demonstrated_, or, in other the communicating portion mig ht be fluid words, that tubes tilled with fluid would serve as well f or electric telegraphs as ordinary wires, and that the ne rves that and butthat the ho presence perform iorm a similar office in the body. He stated that there were way ofascertainingfluid, had succeeded in overcoming that difficulty by th e use great of adifficulties voltaic current in e ntthtiny of what he termed the electro-voltaic test, which was exibited to the audience. In imitation of the action of light upon the eye, the lecturer sta ted i that h e h a d con structed numerous voltaic currents n which the current was solely determined by the action of the sun's rays. In imitation of the other organs of s ensat i on, Mr. Smee exhibited a contrivance in which the voltaic circuit was caused by in another contrivance a similar cur rent was produced by savours; in others the current was sat in motion by heat or force. The effect in each case, notwithstanding the delicacy of the experiment s , was extremely well marked, and elicited much applause. Mr. Smee exhibited voltaic; combinations i n i mitation of the consmissures of the brain, and of the theoretical structure of that organ, which he stated is sufficient to account for all mental phenomena. The artificial elec tric eel dellLcted the galvanometer most powerfully, to the great delight of the audience, and the artificial mus cular substance moved a long lever over the space of three or four feet. The functions of the blood corpus cule were strikingly illustrated by an analogical experi ment with artificial corpuscale made o f men h are an d per nitrate of iron. The injecti ons o f b ra i n ex hibited under the microscope in the library were of surpassing beauty, and well illus trated, " How fearfully and wonderfully we are made." The lecturer summed up by showing that sen sations, mind, thought, and all functions of animal life were entirely due to voltaic action, and obedient to phy sical laws; but, nevertheless, that science no less leads us to infer, than religion commands us to believe, that man is immortal, though that which is mortal should never be confounded with that which gives to man his immor tality. In the library there were exhibited a number of scientific inventions, the most prominent and most admired among which was a series of daugereotype portraits, taken by the improved process recently in vented by Mr. Mayall, of the American Institution, in the Strand. The portraits were equal to any that have been produced by the most celebrated photographists; indeed, they had all the appearance of steel engravings of the better class, but possessed this additional and startling peculiarity, that the portraits were twice the size of those ordinarily produced. This is a g rea t an d decided impr o vement in an art which seemed already to have reached perfection.

The Rates of Premium are calculated upon Carlisle mortality, and are as low as a due regard to complete security will justify. HALF PRE MUM SYSTEM. —By this plan only one-half of the premiums, with interest of the retained halves, is required to be g *id for the first five years—the retained halves, being payable at the convenience of the assured, or allowed to continue, to farm a deduction from the claim en the Policy ; and as the As surance may be relinquished at any time without payment of the retained premiums, this scheme enables a party to assure for the first five years at little more than half the usual rate, and to discontinue a Policy at about one-half the usual sacrifice. WHOLE WORLD POLICIES are granted, whereby the secutlty of a creditor, holder of a Policy, continues unimpaired, although the assured life should go beyond the prescribed limits. Sums are assured payable to the parties themselves on attaining a specified age, or at their death, whichever shall first occur. PARTNER-41H' POLICIES are granted, whereby ajoint assurance effected by partners, at the charge of the firm, secures the capital in vested.

There is no extra charge for residence beyond 35 degrees of the equator. Ne Admission or Entrance Fees are required, nor is any charge made for the Policy beyond the amount of the Stamp. Claims are payable within three months after proof of the death of the assured life.

(Continued from The Sun of yesterday.) Evidence was then gone into at considerable length, but after hearing the case for the prosecution and the addresses of counsel on behalf of the prisoners, The jury, without troubling the Learned Judge to sum up, returned a verdict of Not Guilty, adding that the prisoners would leave the court with an unblemished character. No evidence was offered upon the other indictments, and verdicts of Not Guilty having been recorded, the prisoners were ordered to be immediately discharged from custody. William Bailey, Si, was indicted for the wilful mur der of Henry ',timbal], by stabbing him in the breast with a knife. Mr. W. COOPER defended the prisoner. The circumstances of this case have been fully re ported within the last few days, and it will therefore be unnecessary to repeat them on the present occasion.

We have received the Paris papers of yesterday. M. ODILON BARROT announced yesterday to the Assembly, that the French Government had deter mined on an armed intervention in the affairs of Rome. As a reason for such intervention, he stated, in substance, that the counter-coup of the victories gained by the Austrians over the Piedmontese would be felt throughout the whole of Central Italy ; that a crisis appeard to be imminent in the Roman States, and that France could not remain indifferent to such a state of things. He added, that the protection of natives of France resident in Italy, the necessity of maintaining the legitimate influence which France had long possessed in Italy, and the desire which the French Gevernment felt to contribute towards obtaining for the Roman people a good Government based upon liberal institutions, rendered it a duty to the Cabinet to make use of the liberty which the Assembly had granted to it by its vote of the 20th of March, to occupy temporarily a portion of the territory of the Peninsula. The Minis ter added that it was impossible for him to enter into any further details ; but could affirm that out of the intervention of France would arise efficacious guaran tees for the interests of their (the French) policy, and for the cause of true liberty. In finishing his speech, M. ODILON BARROT read a project of law, granting a credit to the Government of 1,200,000 f., to meet the additional expense required for the support, on a war footing, during three months, of the troops forming the expedition.. At the request of the Minister, the Assembly im mediately met in its bureaux, to appoint a committee to make a report on the urgency of the project of law in question. _ _ It is said that there were serious divisions in the Cabinet as to the propriety of adopting the measures propounded by M. ODILON BABROT to the Assembly, and that their adoption may be considered as an ad ditional triumph of the extreme reactionary party, inasmuch as the proposition for an immediate armed intervention emanated from M. DE FALLOUX, the panegyrist of the Inquisition, the apologist of the massacre of St. Bartholomew's-day, and the repre sentative in the Cabinet of the Parti Pretre and the Jesuits, who has succeeded in forcing on his colleagues this Holy War. The order for the embarkation of the troops: from Toulon was dispatched on Saturday by telegraph. General OUDINOT commands the expe dition, which has by this time possibly arrived at Civita Vecchia. The French Government has, it is said, received information of the invasion of Tuscany by the Austrians. The Count DE MONTEMOLIN, accompanied by two aides-de-camp and an officer attached to the Prefec ture of the Police, passed through Paris on Sunday, on his way to Calais. _ _ _ La Presse contradicts a statement of the Patrie to the effect that the Austrian General' AsraE had marched against Florence at the head of 16,000 men, and that the representatives of the great Powers assembled at Gaeta had not yet decided upon any course of action. The Debats gives an analysis of the revenue re turns, which is worthy of notice : " The total receipt for the first quarter is 168,344,000 r, while for the corresponding quarter of 1848 it was 177,964,0001., making a difference of 9,620,000 f. ; but it allowance be made for the reduction of the salt tax the difference would in reality be re duced to 472,000 f. Thkre is, therefore, but litttle difference between the two periods. The difference, moreover, is upon the two first months, for March presents a surplus of 3,367,000 f. Several branches of revenue show, notwithstanding, a deficiency. Registry duties are less, by 5,963,0001. The stamp duty has lost 691,0001.; salt, 3,557,000 f.; potable liquors, 553,0001.; and the Yost-office 3,448,0001. It is to be hoped, how ever, that the advantages gained by the country by the reduction of the post-office tax will atone for the loss in curred by the revenue. On the other hand the customs show improvement. Import duties give an increase of 5,590,0001., and on the side of exports there is an ameli oration, which is encouraging for commerce and national industry. An unfavourable side of the picture is that which relates to direct taxation. There remains to be recovered of the 45 centimes a sum: of 11,593,0001., which is not very large considering that it is an extra ardinary impost; but there is besides that, on the ordi nary taxes, a sum of 19,862,000 f. not yet collected. These sums make nearly 30 millions due on the year 1848, no great burden if business should resume its wonted activity." M. DR FALLOUR is endeavouring to revive the days of M. DE FRAYSSINOUS and of CHARLES X. He has issued a circular to the Rectors of Academies warn ing them not to interfere with politics. We should not be surprised to find him forbidding all lectures on history, and proposing in the Legislative Chamber the re-enactment of the law of sacrilege. BOURSE.—PARIS, MONDAY, APRIL 16.

According to a letter from Vienna of the 10th, the Magyars on the lower banks of the Danube have penetrated into several parts of the Backza. PERCZEL and BATTRYANI have succeeded in entrenching them selves in the fortress of Peterwardein. The garrison, in - order - to favour this movement, made a sortie on the 29th ult., which was suc cess f u l. I mme di a t e l y on the arrival of PERCZEL and BATTRYANI, the partizans of Austria were allowed to withdraw. Crowds of women and children left Peterwardein in different conveyances. The Servian garrison of Zombor re tired. After this a number of the inhabitants of the Baczka took the road to Syria, with their wives and children. The Cologne Gazette publishes . a letter which states that at the battle of Hatvan two brigades of the right wing of the Imperialists, commanded by JELLACRICH, were completely cut to pieces, the right wing itself broken, and the greater part of the Aus trian artillery taken by the Hungarian Hussars. Fiume and Buccari have been declared in a state of siege, in consequence of the discovery of a plot for an insurrection. Should those towns expel the Im perialists, an almost direct communication will be opened between the Hungarians and the Venetians. VIENNA, APRIL B.—The urgency of events in Hungary demands a speedy and considerable rein forcement of the Imperial army, now equipped in that country, as the ranks have been greatly thinned by typhus. Considerable bodies of troops from Galicia and Italy are said to be destined for the ser vice. The lately disbanded six battalions of Infantry are being speedily equipped, and will be sent in small divisions to the army. The constitution of a seventh battalion has already been decided upon, which will be taken in hand so soon as the mobilisation of the sixth has been completed, when a fresh levy will be instantly ordered.—Prussian Staats Anzeiger, April 15. • •• •• • -- ' SPAIN. Madrid journals of the 16th have arrived. They announce the defeat of the Carlist chief MAusaL in Catalonia. The French Minister M. DE LESSEPS presented his letters of recal to the QUEEN on the 16th. As we expected, the rumour so industriously cir culated that CABRERA had been killed by the troops of BEP DEL OLI turns out to be without foundation. In fact, it would appear as if the whole history of that battle were a fabrication, for the Fomento of Barce lona of the 9th states that CABRERA'S wounds having re-opened, he had given the command of, the insur gent forces to four of his chiefs.

The National Assembly of Frankfort, in the sitting of the 13th, rejected a motion for taking into imme • diate consideration a proposition to the effect that the rscal of the members by the different governments should not be allowed; and that if their indemnity should be withdrawn, it should be paid by the Trea sury of the empire. The Assembly also rejected a proposition for printing and circulating 100,000 copies of the Constitution. M. Simsort was re-elected President. Some discussion took place on the abo lition of public gambling-houns, but the Assembly adopted an order of the day maintaining its decree for the suppression of such places. From what the Minister of Justice said, however, it is assumed that the Central Government will not be unwilling to allow indemnities to be accorded. PRUSSIA. In the sitting of the Prussian Chamber of Deputies on the 13th, a proposition to the effect that the prin ciples laid down by the Government in the German question were not approved by the Chamber, and that the German Constitution could only be modified in the manner the Constitution itself provides, was re ferred to a committee. It is stated in a letter from Berlin of the 12th that M. CAMPHAUSEN, the Prussian Plenipotentiary to the Central Government of Germany, but who is now at Berlin, has had a conference with Count D'ARNIM, the result of which is that all dispatches, notes, &c., respecting the affairs of Germany shall be forwarded in duplicates simultaneously to Frankfort and Bailin. AUSTRIA. The news of the defeat of the Imperialists, com manded by WINDISCHGRATZ and JELLACHICH, on the sth and 6th of April, is fully confirmed. Letters from Vienna of the 11th state that the Magyars hav ing taken up a position in the Plain of Rukos, they had offered battle there to WINDISCHGRATZ ; but the Prince, seeing the enemy were too strong for him, had judged it prudent to retire into Pesth. A letter from Vienna of the 9th says—" The battle of Hatvan has lasted for two days, and when the last news came away was still raging with great fury on all points." Another letter of the 10th says " We have just received the intelli gence that the Imperial army is before Pesth , and that the retreat of the b a ggage bus been going on for 48 hours." The Colog . .e Gazette, in a Vienna letter of the 11th, says—" We yesterday learned that the greater part of the insurgent army took up a position on the Rakosfeld, half a league from I'estb, and that a battle was about to take place. To-day we learn that the insurgents have offered battle to Prince WINDISCHGRATZ, but their forces being superior he retired on Pesth." The Breslau Gazette has a letter from Pesth, dated the morning of the 7th, which states that the Hungarian army, under DEMBINSKI, was under the walls of Pesth and that the Austrians were flying from the town. SCHLESWIG-HOLSTEIN. KIEL, APRIL 10.—The troops of the empire will not enter Jutland till the 14th. It is said that the Danish troops in the Sundewitt have unanimously declared that they will not fight against the Germans. General HERSCHFELD has established his head-quar ters at Flensburg. • The advanced posts are close un the frontier of Jutland. The 'Danes have been ordered to leave the Sundewitt, and retire to the Isle of Alsen, where they will wait the moment when they may be able to engage their enemies hand to hand. On the 12th Baron HEINTZE, late member of the Schleswig-Rolstein Government during the Danish rule, a brother-in-law of Count REVENILOW-PEEETZ, left for London, as is supposed, for the purpose of canvassing interest for the cause of the rebellious duchies with the British Government and the diplo. matists in London. HANOVER, APRIL 12.—The Hanoverian Zeitung contains the official report of the engagement between the Hanover Brigade and the Danes at Ulderup on the 6th of April. From this report it appears that the Hanoverian brigade, which marched from See gard to drive out the Danes from Ulderup, laboured under great disadvantages from the narrowness of the road, which retarded the advance of the main column till an engagement had already commenced with the avant guard and the Danish outposts. The main body of the Danish army, of about 8,000 or 9,000 men, was behind Satrup, where a sharp argue busade commenced, which lasted several hours. The Hanoverian troops were driven from their position, near Ulderup, and compelled to withdraw to Baurup. The engagement lasted from half-past eleven to six o'clock. ITALY. Advices from Turin of the 12th state that the de legated councils of the municipalities of Alba, Pine rolo, Aosta, and Tortona, have been dissolved by a Royal ordinance. The KING has named General MArrex DI Boom President of the Commission of Inquiry relative to the late campaign. On the 11th of April all the forts and gates of Genoa were occupied by the Piedmontese troops, and the barricades were nearly all removed. General AVEZZA had taken refuge on board an American steamer. M. PLEzzAk, Commissioner of the Piedmontese Government at Parma, has issued a protest, dated the sth, against the acts of General D ' ASPRE in that city. It states that the articles of the armistice of Novarra do not warrant the occupation of Parma by the Austrains, much less a change in the civil and political state of the duchy. M. PLEZZA also pro tests against the dissolution of the National Guards, that being only a civil force; and also because, during an armistice, concluded as a preliminary of peace, neither of the belligerent parties is warranted in diminishing the forces of the other; lastly, he protests against the acts by which the Sardinian civil authorities are forced to suspend their functions de facto, which is contrary to the very letter of the ar mistice, and not within the power of the military authorities who signed it. In the sitting of the Tuscan Constituent Assembly of the 2d, GUERAZZI made the following declaration : —" Upon my soul and conscience, I do not think that the country can be saved unless the Assembly adopts the following resolutions :-1. That the full powers conferred on the Government be not illusory, and that it may act according to exigencies, for the weal of the country. 2. That the Assembly be prorogued for a time on condition that the Executive take no important resolution without consulting it, on pain of impeach ment. 3. That all discussion on the form of go vernment be suspended. 4. That the members of the Constituent Assembly remain in F lorence, to be em ployed by the Executive as circumstances may require." After a strong discussion, the third reso lution was passed ; the Assembly prorogued to the 16th, but the members were not obliged to rema in in Florence. It was further declared that the Executive shall take nc steps to decide the future fate of Tus cany without the consent of the Assembly ; b u t l eave was given to issue two millions' worth of Exchequer bills, to provide for the expenses of the war. The Chief of the Executive Power and the Minis try have issued a declaration, stating that there is not the least foundation for the rumour that they have made any overtures t en di ng t o th e re - establishment in Tuscany of the house of Lorraine. According to letter s rece i ve d f rom P arma, several Austrian regiments are on march towards Tuscany and Romagna, under the orders of General D'AspaE. The National Guard o f L eg h orn h as b een mobi lised for the defence of the country. Letters from Rome state that nine thousand guns have just been received, which have been manufac tured in France for the Republican Government. By order of the triumvirs, every citizen is bound to sell his arms to the Government within four days. Count CODEOUCIII has been arrested at Rome. The buildings of the Inquisition have been changed into lodgings for the poor. On the 2d, about 1,800 Neapolitans, with half a battery, and protected by three gunboats, on Lake Frodi, attacked the fort of the Epitaffio, belonging to the Romans, but soon retired. The Republican troops on the Neapolitan frontier ere to be concentrated at Terni, under the orders of General FERRARI. They are said to amount to about 40,000 men. Correspondence received from Ravenna and An cona asserts that Admiral ALBINI has pledged his word not to abandon Venice with the Sardinian fleet, and to receive no orders from Genoa, and the crews of his vessels have consented to follow his patriotic example. The Corriere Mercantile of Genoa, of the 11th, publishes the following letter addressed on the 9th to Lord HARDwicKE, commanding her Majesty's ship Vengeance, stationed in that port : " Signor,—You have entered our port with your ship under the flag of a friendly and honourable nation, and you have been received as a friend ; the' hospitality the the city and port has not been refused to you.. struggle for liberty, you have taken part !ig without being people; you have taken an active part, .nwto the sea the called upon to do it ; you have thrown . 1 hands t of e r n i s n t the t ammunition of the h b a t e tery thr w e h at i the people ; you hadcleared in a word, for action, said battery ; you hare made your ship take a hostile position; your ship, e e n h ed wa a t o l n fi t r h e e and its hostile attitude was contrary to the desire of the British nation.

The Positim o of Rome of the 7th states that the Governme n t o f t h e Republic has intercepted some important c orrespondence coming from Gaeta, and directed to Civita Vecchia, discovering the plots for effecting the counter-revolution. Several arrests have been made in consequence ; among the arrested, who are chiefly priests, is a prelate, and canon of St. John of Laran. / AL, [PRICE SD. I SOUTH AMERICAN STATES. mFarco. find n e diffleelt j tl,O (06, sof ntnnerous correspondents relt>t:ee to the titutncisl re resources of Mexico. The vicissitudes which the country has undergone since the war of independeLcu, ret.der it difficult to get accurate statistics respecting the various ti s p i el l cu e t , i nl the e g a the.vifinergsft u sources of inco me . W e are anxious, however, to supply read ers w i t h as many facts as wo have found acces sible, them to the todraw their own ded uc ti o ns re population of Mexico in 1839 amounted to 7,044,140. Nut vi ithsiaL.cling the succession of civil broils that followed the struggle with the armies of Spain, the country had been gradually, though slowly, advancing in prosperity. It was then ascertained that the population had been increasing at the rate of 1 4.sths per cent. per annum; and taking this ratio for the ten years that have since elapsed, the' present inhabitants would' amount to 8,319,420. From this, however, we have Co deduct the cessions of territory that have since been made to the United States, comprising 57,026 in the province of New Mexico, 33,439 in Upper and Lower California, and 27,800 in Texas. This makes a total of 118,265, which leaves the state in its present position with a population of 8,200,000 nearly. In order to show American States, formerly colonies of Spain, we give the relative position of Mexico, and the other South the present estimate formed of their respective popula tions from the latest authentic sources:— Venezuela 1,000,000 New Granada 1,600,000 Equador ••• ••• ••• 680,000 Peru 1,500,000 Bolivia ... ... 1,400,000 Chill ... 1,180,000 La Plata ... 1,700,000 Paraguay ... ... 240,000 Uruguay ..• ... 90,000 Total ... 9,390,000 It will thus be seen that the population of Mexico approximates closely to that of the whole of the other South American States which belong to Spain, and, what is of equal importance to industrial pursuits, the area over which they arespread is not now quite 900,000 square miles; whilst the other states embrace a surface of 31,380,000 square miles. As far, therefore, as popu lation forms an element of national resources, the ad ; vantages which Mexico possesses over any of the other states are obviously pre-eminent. Again, in reference to the value of :property. The National Institute of Geography and Statistics presented a return to the supreme Government in 1839, which made the aggregate income from the various branches of industry in the country amount to 300,000,000 dollars per annum, representing, at five per cent. interest per annum, a capital of 6,000,000,000 dollars. Supposing, therefore, Mexico were to have recourse to a direct tax of five per cent. on the yearly income of the country, it would produce 15,000,000 dollars per annum, which would be more than sufficient to pay all the current ex penses of the Government, including the interest on the public debt on a peace establishment. In order to show the progressive improvement in the resources of the country under the Government of Spain, Baron Humboldt, in his view of the subject, states that the yearly revenue of the vice-royalty during, the five years from 1763 to 1767, both inclusive, was 6,169,164 dollars, and that the average of the five years from 1795 to 1799, also both inclusive, was 20,462,307 dollars. Such was the position of Mexico even under the old restrictive system of Spain, when the population did not much exceed 6,000,000. It is almost unnecessary to state that the great draw back on the resources of the country since it threw off its Spanish connexion was the rivalry of the military chiefs that were the creations of the revolution. This rivalry was the fertile source of intestine feuds, which prevented anything like settled government, up to the aggression of the United Statee in 1846. A regular army, averaging upwards of 30,000 men, was kept on toot, at an average expense of rather upwards of 12,000,000 dolls. per annum, during many years; but notwithstanding this drawback there is not the slightest doubt of the country having been steadily increasing its capital. The present Government has, however, given ample proof that they are duly sensible of the evil re sulting from keeping up such a large military establish ment, and the army is now reduced to rather under . . 10,000 men, which are considered to be sufficient to pre serve order on the frontiers. The next point upon which all the successive Govern ments have chiefly erred has been in imposing by far too high a scale of duties ou all articles constituting their fo reign:trade. This is a matter that hay been remonstrated against by the ablest men in the state, including nearly every successive Finance Minister, as tending to di minish the revenue by not less than one-half. The par ties that have chiefly supported the system of high duties were the wealthy proprietors, that had never had any in tercourse with general society, and were deeply imbued with the prejudices they had imbibed from their fathers, who had supported the system of Spanish commercial policy. The minds of this class were artfully acted upon by a small section in some of the principal towns, who had some capital embarked in manufactures, and whose motives wore purely selfish, and their actions altogether inimical to the public weal. It is on all hands ad mitted that the future progress of the country exclu sively depends upon a large modification of the tariff of duties, and according to the recent accounts there it every prospect that the Congress now sitting will ar range them on a principle that will give a vast stimulus to the national industry, and a corresponding increase to the public revenue. There are plenty of men in Mexico that thoroughly understand the interests of the country in this respect, and it is a great error to suppose that there is any defi ciency of men of talent competent to conduct their financial affairs. Even in the midst of the confusion of the civil wars the Finance Ministers indicated no lack of ability, but as we have.above stated they were bailed in carrying out their plans by the narrow views and prejudices of a majority of their representatives. Amongst others Don Antonio Gray, from his published works, clearly showed that he was fully master of the whole subject. Some of these Ministers, from a careful investigation, showed :that more than half the imports into the country were contraband, by which the collec tors of the revenue were corrupted, and the public in come diminished in proportion. It will be obvious also that the system would greatly check the consumption, from the disproportionate prices of commodities com pared with what they would have been under a moderate scale of duties. It these two main evils, therefore, are corrected, as they at present promise to be by the de facto Government of Mexico, no doubt can be enter tained that the Government will have ample means to cover all current expenses, inclusive of the interest on the national debt. The Mexican people are only a little later in making this movement than some of the states on the Pacific, who have much less ample resources. Chili, for example, went on for many years in the same state of anarchy, arising from precisely the same source—viz., keeping up a large standing army, and the rivalry or the officers that had sprung up out of the revolutionary contest. They went also into the same error respecting the com mercial tariff, and both evils were corrected in Chili by the individual energy of Don Manuel Rengifo, who was fortunately called to administer the finances of that state, and succeeded in reducing the army to a police force, and opening the country to foi eign enterprise by a free admission of emigrants and a moderate scale of import duties. Peru more recently, chiefly also by the single efforts of an individual, has imitated the course pursued by Chili, and promises to meet with equal success. And with these examples before them, and the advan t ageous consequences, the Mexican Government aad Legislatur e have a powerful s ti mu l us to i n d uce th em t o p ersevere in a similar course. There are some other points of the subject which our space requires us to defer to a future time. - We have been at considerable pains to consult a variety of authorities, but we recommend those interested in Mexican affairs to a compilation made by R.
