LATEST FROM PARIS.

ITALIAN REVOLUTION.
Much anxiety is expressed in all the letters which
arrived from Northern Italy respecting the result of
the contest now going on in Lombardy.
The issue of that contest depends mainly on King
Charles Albert. Without the Sardinian army, the
Austrians under Radctsky, reinforced as they speedily
must be by the troops marching from the north and
by those already in the Frioul, would be, ere long,
again at the gates of Milan. In my letter of
this morning I announced the fact that Charles
Albert has informed the Provisional Government at
Milan, that unless it proceeds immediately to consti-
tute a definitive government in Lombardy, he will
withdraw his army. The cause of this measure on
the part of the King of Sardinia is easily explained.
A republican party has been formed at Milan, and is
collecting round it numerous partisans. The object of
this party is not liberty to Lombardy.
Its speculations extend over the whole Italian
Peninsula, and its project is nothing less than
to constitute a great Italian republic, comprising
Naples, Rome, Tuscany, Venice, Milan, and Genoa.
Its designs on Piedmont are not, of course, openly
avowed while the Sardinian army is working out the
emancipatbm of Italy, but no one doubts that the
real limits of its speculations are the line of the Alps.
Charles Albert desires to defeat these combinations
by inducing the Lombards and Venetians, either by
the influence of persuasion or threats, to agree to a
union of their territory and the definitive consti-
tution of a regular government. According to the
latest accounts, if this be not immediately done, the
Sardinian army will retire within its own territory.
An intelligent correspondent, writing from the very
theatre of these important events, affirms, that
if the Austrians either defend the line of the A,' ige
or retire upon the Tyrol, in order to meet the
reinforcements which they await, and then resume
the offensive, the presence of the Sardinian army will
become indispensable to the attainment of Italian
independence. All parties will then rally round
Charles Albert, and a constitutional monarchy will
be voted by an inimence majority. Under such
circumstances the remainder of Italy would continue
tranquil. Bat, on the other hand, if a republic be
declared in Lombardy, the entire peninsula will
become the theatre of a lamentable struggle between
the two governmental principles. The legations would
either unite with the Lombard republic or erect them-
selves into independent republics. Romagna would
probably still adhere to Pius IX., but in the Neapolitan
territory, where the king is
c, unpopular, andb which is
utterly unfitted to a republi a gene " ouleverse-
ment" would become inevitable.
Even in Tuscany, where the sovereign enjove a
well-merited personal popularity, the republican
principle would still find numerous advocates at Leg-
horn and at Pisa, and the (hailers would be that a
republic would ultimately be formed, under the title
of Etruria.

PARIS, WEDNESDAY, 6 r.x.
A tacit agreement prevails among the members of
the government and the organs of the press, to abstain
from all irritating discussion in public, which might
disturb the existing order of things before the
assembly shall meet into whose hands they will
severally and collectively have to resign their power'.
Independent journalists, however, do not fail to com-
ment with just severity on some of the acts of indi-
viduals composing the government, and on none
none more severely than on the improper interference
of the members of the Operatives' Committee at the
Luxembourg in the affair of the elections. From the
present aspect of things, however, it appears likely
that M. Loam Blanc will receiv a most appropriate
rebuke from the very class who, it was feared, would
have become the dupes of his eccentric theories. The
working class itself will, if we are rightly informed,
prove by the result of the elections, that it has more
shrewdness and practical sense than its friends at the
Luxembourg gave it credit fur.
Every description of security underwent a sudden
and considerable rise to day at the Bourse. The
Threes, which closed yesterday at 41!,, closed to-day
441, to which they rose steadily and without fluctua-
tion. The Fives, which closed yesterday at G 2 I, rose
steadily also, and desert at G. ltailvray shares ad-
vanced also in the same proportion. 'Be Orleans,
which closed yesterday at 515, closed to-day at 570.
The ltouen, which closed yesterday at 373, closed
to-day at 425.
No other cause was assigned for this improved state
of the market, except the reviving confidence pro-
&iced by the expectations of the result of the elections, '
founded on the information which has already trans-'I
erred, and on the general tranquillity and order which
has continued to prevail.
Another of the series of bulletins which have issued
from the ministry of the interior, and have hitherto
treed such pernicious effects, has appeared to-day,
at is marked by an extremely different tone from all
its predecessors. M. Ledru Rollin and his satellites,
have no doubt taken a lesson from experience, and,l
having !earned the small chance there is of the es-
tablishmeut of a dictatorship, are prudently tacking,
and going to steer on another course, coinciding more
with that of their more respectable colleagues m the
government.
The following decree, dated the loth, has been
published :
The Provisional Government, considering that the ',sem-
blance of Germans in the departments of the cut are er-
gaoising and arming themselves in spite of the prescrip-
tions of the authorities to the contrary; that these
assemblages of foreigners on one point are a bur-
then for the populations of these departments; that the
governments of Germany have re-opined their frontiers
to natives, who are permitted to enter singly and with-
out arm, • that these assemblages are an object of alarm
sad a pretext of armament for the neighbouring states of
France, and a subject of misunderstanding betty en Germany
sad the Republic; and finally, that peace exists, and should
be strenthened btween the Sts of the Germanic
federation and thee Republic ; end that the will of a few
armed foreigners must not be permitted to change the charac-
ter of the sentiments of Republican France towards Ger-
many :—decrees that the assemblages of Germans in the
departments of the East shall be dissolved. The Ivlinisters
of Foreign Anita Interior, and War, are charged with the
execution of this decree.

INIETROFOLITAN lAt vhovEMENTS.—iesterday the
demolition of that notorious lity, the Barou;-h Mint, was
commenced, by order of the Southwark Improvement Com-
missioners, for the construction of a new street from St.
George's Church to Southwark bridgeroad. This Lcality
kis for many years been occupied by thieves and other per-
inns of the worst description. On Tuesday, by order of the
Board of Works, the whole of the houses on the north side
of Holborn-bridge, from Victoria.street to ,as

ROYAL COLLEGE OF C IthAll,alti. Dr. Sheridan
Musprett delivered an inter. sting lecture yesterday eveni
at the monthly meeting of the subscribers and student, of
this college, at Ilsoover.square, on the manufacture of the
carbonate of soda, sulphuric acid, and hydrochloric acid ;
and, in a series of successful experiments, showed how the
deleterious gases evolved in the process, and which Wert so
destructive of vegetation as to have caused an action for da-
mages to have been brought against the Messrs. Muspratt,
proprietors of chemical works in Liverpool, upon that
ground, might be condensed, and their unhc ilthy action
thereby greatly diminished, if not altogether prevented.
Scattered through the rooms were many specimens of da-
guerreotype portraits and landscapes, of Talbstypes, and of
silver and copper electrotypes, all of which were greatly and
deservedly admired.

SHEEP AND CATTLE FAIRS IN TILE NORM— Several
large Sheep and Cattle fairs have lately been held in the
northern counties, the quotations of prices at which inva-
riably enable dealers and. agriculturists generally to form a
pretty correct idea how to act in purchasing stock for the
season. The largo: and most important of these fairs was
held at Penrith, Cumberland, on Saturday and Monday last,
the firmer being the Sheep, and the latter the Cattle fair.
The number of high-bred Sheep, Cheviot Hogs, and Scotch
Ewes was never known to be so great, 40,003 having been
exposed for sale, which were of the primest description, both
as regards the quality of the wool and the general condition
of the Sheep. Mr. M'Queen, a large Scotch dealer,
showed a flock of upwards 7,000. Mr. A. Armstrong, one
of 5,000, and Mr. T. Armstrong one of 4,000. The fair
was a remarkably dull one ; few buyers were present, and
those who were in attendance declined purchasing, by reason
f the sellers asking such high prices. Very few sales of im-
portance were effected, end it is to be feared that the large
dealers have speculated too far this season, having ough
tip the Sheep at such high prices, and consiquently bwill bet
losers to very large amounts, unless the demand be greaser,
and prices advance at fairs which remain yet to be held.
The figures were, for high.brett Sheer, from '2Bl. to 336.
per head ; he Cheviot Hogs, from 245. to 36a.; second best,
from 204. to 30s. Very little business was done amongst
the pure Scotch bred Ewes, so that prices in both cannot
he correctly stated. The Cattle fair on Monday was matt
abundantly supplied with all kinds of Cattle, and, there
be:na a large number of dealers present from varieus parts
of England, Scotland, and Ireland, selling upon the whole
was hrisk. The following are the quotations:—Lean cattle
for grazing, especially young Bullocks, were in great demand
at prices according to quality, varying from 71. to 16/.
per head. Spring Calvcrs were soon bought up, the
figures being from 10 t. 22 guineas per head. Fat Bul-
locks and other fat cattle, which were principally bought
uo for the southern markets, were sold upon the average at
255. per stone on the four anarters, sinking the offal. There
was a splendid show of bulls. Yearlings were sold at from
20 to as guineas ; two.year olds from 25 to 40 guineas hut
very little bulginess was done amongst the elder buhs. Prices
for all kinds of Cattle were about 101. per cent. lower, corn-
par..4 with the prices of last year's fair.
ROYAL. DUBLIN SOCIETY'S SPRING EXIIIIIITION.—The
spring exh bition of cattle and agricultural produce, under
the auspices of the Royal Dublin Society, opened to•day.
The tome was extremely gay and cheering from the amount
and rank of the exhibiions and those who took an interest
in their pros edings. It was gratifying to all lovers of Irish
prosperity, more especially after the scents through whi.l
we have passed. There never has been within the precincts
of the riciety's premises so large or so Sue an exhibition of
cattle, of such good breeds of stock, or one affording
cattle
more
premise for its etfoct upon the country. The stall-
were in particularly fine condition. There were on show
290 head of black cattle in the several claws, 57 lots of
s'.eep, 60 head of swine, 22 horses, mares, &c., 151 speci-
mens of pon:try, cif husbandry implements of beautiful
and cups rfor mould and easy working power.

LEEDS, April 26.-We had a very extensive supply of fat
Cattle at our market this morning, which were mostly of a
very superior description ; but they met a dull sale, butchers
not being disposed to give the paces asked. Of Sheep, the
show was unusuady large, but the demand was compara-
tively slow, end many were driven away unsold. Good
Beef sold at from 7s. 6d. to Ss. per 1611ss. Clipped Sheep
realised 61d. to 7d. ; and wooled Sheep, 71d. per lb.
Livsueoot, April 24.-Ne have had a good supply of all
kinds of stock at our market to day. Beef was sold at last
week's prices, and Mutton a shade lower.
NORWICH TOMISLAND FAIE.-The show of Scots were
small, but of short-horns and other store Cattle large and
good. Although there was a fair attendance of buyers, the
continued wet weather caused trade to be very dull. The
prices obtained were barely equal to Saturday's market. The
show of hoggets was immense, and the quality and condition
tolerably good, particularly those fed on corn or eake. The
numtcrs were the general remarks of the purchasers. At
twelve o'clock little was done, all trying to reduce the high
prices asked. From 1,000 to 3,000 were sold ; and at the
close about the same prices obtained as could have been
in the early part of the day. We may observe,
the purchasers appeared to wait for a beginning from some
quarter. We fear the prices are not so remunerating as
could be expected, although Mutton is very dear. fhe
Lambs were purchased doing the summer, at extravagant
prices. There were several lols of superior naked Haggett,
, which made from Os. to I. 6d. per stone of 141 b. We may
finish by observing that the numbers sold and prices obtained
might have been far worse, asrl we wish the breeders and
graziers as well paid another year. Horses a poor show,
with little anxiety to purchase ; in fact, scarcely a first-rat
dealer was to be seen.

STRATEORD.OST-AVON.-This fair was en the whole a fa-
vourable one, as it must be understood to have been only
very recently established. The supply of Mutton was not
very great, and fetched 7d., but the figure was not readily
given. There were a great many store Tens, hut in some
the quality was not fast-rate ; prices varied from 275. to 365.
A small lot of in-calf Cows were broughs, and moved off at
low rates. Beef was not above as average, and ran from 6d,
to 61c1., with a dull sale. In barren Beasts there was scarcely
a trade, excepting a lot of vary superior Hereford Cows,
which sold from 151. to 171. each.
Sur esvox-osi.Svora FAIR.-This fair was well attended
by farmers and dealers. There was an excellent show of all

and sheared Sheep, 6 Sd. to 73. There was a moderate supply

demand, and sold freely at top prices. Fat Pigs brought
from 10s. to 105. 6d. the scot's. There was a large number
of Horses, particuldrly for farming purposes, which brought
high priers.
TENDI'I:Y.-At this fair the attendance of buyers was
very Bruited, in consequence of Orleton and Cleobury fairs
being held on the same day. The supply of Beef and,
Mutton was rather small; Beef sold at from 6d. to 6W., and
Mutton nabs. d from 7W. to Sd. per lb. There was a larger
supply of store beasts than has be, n seen here for come
time, but the greater part wero driven back unsold. The
same remark also applies to Ewes and Lambs. Very few
Pigs Cu offer, and the trade dull.
CrAPIIIL wee a very fine show of
superior fat ; prices may be sad to have receded from aa. to
6d. per stone. There were few lots of MSS cattle in the
market, but what were shown met with a ready sale.
Meta or Olin MARKET.-There was a considerable show
of cattle, all of which were in good condition, and the prices
realised were about the same as those obtained at the
corresponding period ()fag year. Some twoyear-old crosses
sold from 10/. to 121. 12.. per head; some Queys at 9/.25. Gd.;
and some two-year-old Highland Stots at 81. 51. One-year-

his, to 225.
PENRIEH FAIL-About 20,000 Sheep on show-at least
one-third more than ever was upon the hill before. In con-
sequence of the large supply trade was slow, and more than
half the stock was unsold. The quality was good, and the
prices obtained were high. A larger show of Cattle than
usual, and a good deal sold.
