PIEDMONT.

CAM favour's government will not be dissolved
in consequence of the adverse rote which betel it in
the debate on the Civil Marriage Bill. At the com-
mencement of the sitting of the Senate on the 21st
inst.. M. Boncompagne. the Minister of Justice, read
a royal decree authorising him to withdraw the bill
tforesaid in the name of the government. The
si.sistry regretted, lie said, that the &nate had seen
ft to reject the wishes of the country as they were
'greened in that measure. Still it would continue
to count on the concurrence of the Senate, and hoped
that this event would not interfere with that good
tnelereanding of the three estate* to which Piedmont
owned that her liberties had been preserved, while
those of so many countries had been enerificed during
the list four years. The ministry fell back upon the
pris.triptions of the law of April 19, 18:10, and would
conform its conduct to that in all that regarded the
hlation of the church to the state: its maxim
were submissi in to religion, respect to its ministers
sad their rights, but complete independence of the
este in all matters within its province: respect for
the liberty of the church. but assiduous watchfulness
&pivot the abuse of this liberty, whether to the injury
of public order, the respect dos to the laws, or the
liberty guaranteed by the constitution.
To this moderate but Sens declaration the Presi-
dent of the Senate responded that if in this matter
there had arisen a dissension between the Senate and
the ministry, it was to he ascribed to the tumorous-
nese of some consciences, and not toany intention of
°Swine opposition to the ministry, or of departing
inn:that harmony of the three powers of the state
which was the best security for its institutions.
The Senate then voted. almost without discussion,
the bdl for the continuation of the budget.

THIS DAY.—'fwo o'CLoot.
Operators in the English funds were rather un-
decided at the commencement of business to-day, but,
as the feeling became stronger, that the Ministry will
find it impossible to hang together after the decided
defeat of last night ; buyers came forward with spirit,
and the price of Consols raa rapidly up from 100
to 1004.
The present quotation is 100! to f, ex div. for the
18th January, at which the market wears a firm
appearance. Generally, as may indeed be inferred
from this rise in funded values, the news of the
defeat of the cabinet has been received with un-
alloyed satisfaction, and earnest hopes are expressed
that a strong government will come into office
pledged to carry out steadily the rest principles
of our successful free-trade system. rhe Three per

POOR REMOVAL ACT.

of pitmen who hays become chargeable on any parishes
and unions in England and Wales, under the operation of
the Poor Removal Act of 1846, and of the subsequent acts
relating to that enactment, for the last three year; and the
amount of money expended for the in.aisintenance and

The Bast
The Reserve 12.69%614 Decreer* 137.733
This week we have a trifling reaction in the bul-
lion, a change which, in common with the alteration
in the items of circulation, both " active " and "issue,"
and the reserve, is caused by the quarterly payments
on account of official salaries, including the Civil
List, and other sources of expenditure. It is pro-
bable that the next return may exhibit another
slight falling off in the stock of bullion, owing to the
same cause, and in anticipation of the payment of the
dividends on Consols and the other stocks now shut;
but this coin will soon flow back again, in the pre-
sent state of trade, and the course of this item re-
mains as strongly marked as ever. Considering the
payments above referred to, the increase in the public
deposits in the week is very considerable.
According to the official returns published is the
Gazette of last Tuesday, the total note circulation of
all the private banks of England and Wales, during
the week ending the 20th of December last, wu
3,352,1311.; in the week preceding, the amount was
3,386,238!. There is consequently a decrease of
34,0871.
The note circulation of the joint-stock banks during
the same week was 2,673,2391.; and the previous
week's return being 2,681,6961., decrease is shown
S. be 8,6661.
On taking into consideration the active circulation
of the Bank of England, which in the week in ques-
tion was 18,676,1951. (being 213,0804 less than the
week preceding), we find the aggregate note circula-
tion of England and Wales to be 24,701,183 i., which
shows a decrease of 233,8231. as compared with tho
returns for the previous week, ending the 13th of
December.

As regards the fixed issues, the private bank4were
1,343,9241., and the joint-stock banks 736,7481. below
the amount authorised to be issued, making a total
of 2,082,672 L below the fixed amount.

EGYPT.

A letter, dated Alexandria, Dee. 20, referring to
the progress of the Cairo Itsilway, the urri‘al of
Mr. Stephenson, and his having proceeded on u sur-
vey to determine the line, says:

That survey he has completed, and his decision is to fol-
low the plan suggested by the pacha for carrying the work
through the Delta, connecting Kali Zyst, Tantab, lknnuh,
&c., with this city and the metropolis. Instead of tlio
!costly bridge-work proposed across the two br.inches of the
river, we understand it to be probable a pontoon, or floatir.g
stage will be used fur carrying the rails. Eighteen thou-
sand labourers, supplied from the respective bordering dis-
tricts, will be set to work immediately; and Mr. Stepheto.ou
hopes that in one year he will connect the Nile at Nigielutt
with this city—thus overcoming all the delay and uneer•
tainty of the precarious water transit northward thereof.
The same letter says :

The tanximat question MOMS more nearly to approach a
settlement. Porte, it is believed, will be obliged to
abandon the demand for annulling the power hitherto
vested in the Pacha of capital punishment, at least fur the
present; and us this wan the most iniquitous feature in the
scheme, it in presumed the COMlliiMillliCril of his Highness
will succeed in resolving into an acceptable form the other
conditions of the code. No doubt, however, there will be
new claims urged. It is the fixed policy of Constantinople
to destroy the authority of the present Egyptian ruler, and
ntrigue will not be slow in inventing other schemes of
mischief. Thlre have been some recent broils among the
Bedouin Arabs oa the Syrian frontier, and much difficulty
has been experienced in their suppression. 'ilia
Bhurkiah province was not long ago the scat of
a wide-spread insurrectionary movement; but this
has also been suppressed by the vigilance of the
presiding niilitAry authority. Nevertheless the ten.
dency to disorder is kept alive by the machinations of
_Constantinople aspirants, through their emisarics here, and
the people are being taught daily leas and less respect fur
the omnipotence of their governing head. Such a condition
of affairs it requires no great reach of understanding to
perceive must be in the highest degree prejudicial to tat
order which is essential to the advancement of material
prosperity, and will ultimately operate to shake the hitherto
prevailing aecniity of our Anglo-Indian communication.
Trade is very dull, merchants being much crippled by the
extent of their engagements in shipping, which they now
find exceeds considerably the means of providing cargoes
for even at very exaggerated prices. We hear the Paella
has decided on Teta:ring the difficulty as far as in his power,
by disposing of as much of the produce in stock as lie can
safely apace. Wu regret to record the death of Mrs. Mur-
ray, the lady of the British consul-general, winch occurred

MARK-LANE.-THIS DAY.

There was no alteration in the value of English Wheat
this morning, the few parcels on sale having realised Mon-
day's rates. We are without any fresh amvsls of foreign
Wheat, and the receipts of Flour from abroad this week
amount to 1,230 sacks. The demand for both articles was
of the most retail description; Monday's quotations were,
however, obtained.
The supply of Oats of home growth was small, an arrival
however of about 7,200 quarters from abroad was fully
equal to the demand, and the trade ruled dull, at late rates.
Beans, Peas, and Seeds underwent no change requiring
notice.

THE ELECTIONS.

Town lIAIILETS.-1,68t evening Messrs. Thomp-
son and Ayrton, two out of the five candidates for the re-
prebentation of the Tower Hamlets at the forthcoming
general election, attended a crowded meeting of the elec-
tors at the Manor-house, Hackney, for the purpose of
stating their political views. Both gentlemen, at comider-
able length, addressed the meeting, which was very noisy
and by no means unanimous, and tinnily a resolution ap-
proving them as candidates was put and carried.
WEST OLOUCESTER.—Ii is stated that Mr. Kings-
cote, son of the ♦eiersn Colonel Kingecote', and nephew of
the Duke of Beaufort, will be brought forward as a candi-
date for West Gloucestershire, in the liberal interest.

SORTR WESTERN RAILWAY.—It is found that the
defalcation' that led to the Night of Mr. Storm, the traffic
superintendent of toil line fur twelve years, are not so con-
siderable as at first apprehended, but that his accounta are
io great confusion. liis wife and family are understood
to have joined him abroad, and his absconding is under-
stood to have mainly arisen from liabilities unconnected
with the railway.

THE KAFFIR WAR.

The mere.hant-ship Maidstone, Captain Hash, from
Calcutta, which left the Cape of Good Hope on the
17th or March, landed a passenger at Plymouth yes-
terday.
The accounts from the seat of war are seven days
later than those by the Agincourt, on Saturday.
Colonel Yarborough, of-the 91st, has been slightly
wounded; Ensign liibbert, of the 91st, wounded;
Captain liranley, of the Cape Corps, wounded; and
126 soldiers of the 91st and 74th Regiments killed
land wounded.

These casualties occurred among a patrol who had
successfully attacked sonic Kaffir kraals in the Water-
kloof, and who were themselves attacked on their
return (as usual by combined Kaffirs and Hottentots).
This aflitir occurred between the let and l'ith March.

Sir Harry Smith left King William's Town on the
4th of March.
His forces were divided into three divisions, and
consisted of the 73rd, 60th Rides, and the 43rd and
12th Lancers, Artillery levies, &c.

which they cannot be retsonably expected again to
attain for some time to come. This objection, how-
ever, is more apparent than real, as the great reduc-
tion now in progress in the rate of interest on loans ;
the additions made to the stock in trade (so to term
it) of many lines to meet the requirements of the
Exhibition season, and by which the future expendi-
ture will be proportionately reduced the steady de-
velopment of the regular traffic of the king-
dom, which, it must not be forgotten, is
far more remunerative than the Exhibition traffic;
combined with the other economical ameliorations
now in course of introduction into the various
branches of railway management, are all considera-
tions highly favourable to this immense property,
and afford ground for strong hopes that future divi-
dyads will be of a very satisfactory character. Our
object is of course to give a general comparative view
I of the net yield on an investment in each of the chief
lines at present prices ; the position and prospects of
each stock must be duly weighed by individual in-
vestors.

Mr. Twoauutv brought up • report from the com-
mittee e• public petitions, stating that they had discovered
that • member's name had been 'liked without his know-
ledge to a petition on the subject of the Crystal Palace, and
recommending some steps to be taken to put • stop to a
practice so subversive of the right of petitioning.
PARLIAMENTARY OATHS.

Mr. REYNOLDS gave notice that on the Gth of May ha
would put a question to the Home Secretary, whether it
was intended to bring in a bill to alter the law regarding
parliamentary oaths, so as to allow persons of all religions,
when elected, to take their seats so members of the House

THE WEST INDIA MAIL PACKET STATION.
Sir A. COCKBURN said it had beta reported that there
was as lateen°a on the part of the new Board of Admiralty
to remove the West India packet station from Southampton
to Plymouth. He wished to know whether there was any
fousfttlea for such reports'
Sir J. PAKINO'f ON replied that the subject to which
the question referred was nut properly in his department,
but he had consulted his hon. friend the Secretary of the
Admiralty, and had been assured by him that no such iO.-
tentiooezi.ted. (Hear, beer.)
INCREASE OF MILITARY FORCE.

Mr. DU PRE (on the part of General Reid, who wee
prevented by indisposition from attending en his place,)
asked the Secretary at War, whether her Majesty's govern-
ment had any intention of proposing to parliament to in-
crease the strength of our regular troops serving in Great
Britain and Ireland
Major BERESFORD said her Itle,,esty's government
had no present intention to propo‘e any Inert see to the
strength of the troops serving in (treat Britain and Ireland.
SMITHFIELD MARKET.
Sir B. HALL asked the Secretary of State for the Home
Department, whether any steps had hen token by the roe
porgies of the ('ity of London for the removal of Smithfield
heetitet, and whether any site had been lined upon for tho
new market ?
Mr. WALPOLE said the City had six months given
them for considering whether they would adopt the
provisions of the act or not. They hail signified to the
late Secretary for the Home Department their intention
of avail ng thenirelvel of the option given them. The
lea. gentlemen, no doubt, wu aware that the Secretary of

TURKEY.

The Marseilles mail brings news from Constanti-
nople of the 25th ult. Lord Stratford de Redefine
embarked with his family on the 20th in MM.'s
steamer Scourge for England, having Colonel Rose as
charge d'affairs. Before his departure, Lord Stratford
had a most satisfactory interview with the sultan. It
lasted an hour, and is looked upon as an unprece-
dented favour. The news is confirmed of the Per-
sian occupation of Herat. In Syria some of the in-
habitants had been conciliated by the remission of
the conscription, in consideration of the payment of
a thousand pounds sterling, which they are to pay in
addition to tho ordinary taxes. Corn had conse-
quently dropped from 25 piastres to 18. The corn
crops were abundant. Two-thirds of the town of
Serrayova had been destroyed by fire.

of torturing contrivances, in the hope

Castellazzi, archpriest of Bozzetti, and others were
arrested at the same time. At Brescia they arrested
Tito Speri • at Verona, Tactiolit at Milan, Giovanni
Pezzotti, ;he was found strangled in his prison the

attainments ; whether he died by his own hand to
escape the moral tortures to which prisoners for polip
deal offences in Italy aro always subjected, or
whether he was killed by his jailers, is still a mystery.
Sometimes they do torture for the sake of compelling
revelations, and then, having gone too far, and fear-
ing publicity, they kill.
Such are the things now going on in Lombardy—
part of that prisms of mortal warfare between the
people and tyranny which is continually going on in
Italy, whether we hear of it or not. The number of
the arrests, however, and the quality of the arrested
persons, are proofs that in Lombardy the strife is at
this moment specially intense. We may hear more

of the National Council, at 9 o'clock in the morning,
80 members, about two-thirds of the Assembly,
were present. M. Hungerbuhler, formerly vice•preet-
dent, was elected president by 64 votes of 78. Few or
none of the members of the Federal Council ap-
peared. In the Council of States, M. Bristle war
appointed president by 27 votes out of 38. The
Council of State of Neufchatel had published a pro-

forth briefly the new situation in which this canton

ITALY.

WHOLESALE ARRESTS IN LOMBARDY.

Political arrests are now going on in Lombardy to
an extent which proves at once tho universality of
the dissatisfaction with the Austrian government,
and the consciousness of the government that it is
in imminent danger. There have been 47 arrests in
Mantua and its province; others at Verona; others
at Brescia; others at Milan, &c. These wholesale
arrests have their rime in the following incident. A
search was nude in some house, on suspicion that the
inmates were concerned In smuggling. One of the
%mini loan notes wee unexpectedly discovered in
the house. The holder of this note, a patriot
to some extent, but not a member of the
organised association of patriots which extends over
all Italy, wee induced to mention the name of the
person who had given him the note. This person
was arrested ; all the letters, even those of the most
immaterial and inoffensive kiwi, found in his house
w re used as indications of new persons to be arrested,
the Austrian police hoping that the very multipli
city and promiscuousness of the arrests would lead
accidentally to discoveries. Perbapi the most signi-
ficant fact connected with these arrests is the condi-
tion in life of the persons arrested. Among the 47
arrested in the Mantuan province are the bro-
thers Nuvolari, Dario Taasoni, Frederic Rossi, Pe-
drani of Oonzaga, the Arcipreti (heads of the clergy in
their respective communes or municipalities) ; Otto-

RIOT AT WIGAN.

Wioax, JULY 9, HALP.IPAST 12 11.11.
A riot has taken place here during the evening
cast closed, betwevn parties of Orangemen and catholic,.
he magistrates have met, sworn in a large number of
special constables, headed them in a body, and have taken
into custody a large body of rioters. The Moat Hall, the
cells underneath, and the cells at the police odes, are
crowded with prisoners. Special engine despatched to
Preston for military. Two troops of infantry just arrived.
Since prisoners were taken, riot appears to be quelled. The
magistrates were instructing the military as to their duty
during the night. Many men taken into custody with
weapons, hammers, adzes, &c.
