ROMAN STATES.—The Tribuno of Rome of the
15th announces that a small army of 8,000 men, con
slating of Swiss, Neapolitans, and Spaniards, is con-
centrated
at Caput
The Conetituente Ilaliana of Florence, of the 17th,
quotes letters from Rome, stating that several country
curates are actively engaged in paralyzing the electo-
ral operations. To counteract their influence, com-
missions are sett from Rome to instinct and persuade
the people. At Gonzano, a town of about 8,000 inha-
bitants, the curate had the encyclic letter of the Pope
posted up, but it was immediately torn down. At Fu-
ligno a brawl had taken place between time soldiers
and a citizen, in which the latter was killed. The
people, inceZsed at the outrage, were preparing to re-
venge themselves on the troops, when the officers
interposed, and made them reflect that it would be
unjust to make the troops responsible for the acts of
three ruffians, whom the whole company disavowed.
The people were eventually appeased, and fraternised
with the soldiers.

The Italians of the other provinces who are at
Rome have offered to form themselves into a national
guard to march for the defence of liberty, wherever it
may be attacked.

MONEY MARKET.

TRIIIIRDAT
The Bank directors met to-day, and separated
without making any change in their rates of inteiest
and discount. Contrary to the prevailing impression,
therefore, they remain at 3 per cent., instead of being
reduced to 21 per cent. per annum, the temporary
standard expected to have been substituted. It
might have been supposed that the passive proceed-
ings of the Bank board would have led to a reaction
in Consols, but the broker for that establishment
having come into the market as a purchaser of stock,
taking what amounts he could lay hands on, say fifty
thousand here, forty thousand there, and so on, a
decided advance ensued. Eventually Consols were
called 91 to for the account, or, as was said in some
of the broken' offices, 91 3-16 to;. The official li-ts
may be referred to in another place, for the latest autho-
rised quotations of the house. So much was subsequently
done, however, that they can be regarded only as an
approximating clue to the actual condition of the
markets, u they may show themselves on the opening
to-morrow. . . . .

'fhe foreign funds were not extensively dealt in.
Prices, nevertheless, acquired increased strength from
the example of the rising tendency of the home
stocks. Chilian, Buenos Ayres, Spanish, and Pona-

WEST INDIA MAIL.

We were enabled, by an electric telegraph express,
to announce in our yesterday's impression, the
arrival of the Royal Mail packet Teviot, Capt. Rivett,
at Southampton, and to give a precis of the most im-
portant news. The mails were landed under the
charge of Lieut. John Hay, Admiralty agent. During
the voyage the Teviot had strong gales from SW. to
NW., with heavy seas. The dates brought by
the Teviot are: Vera Cruz, Dec. 19; Havanna, Dec.
30; Honduras, Dec. 11; St. Jago de Cuba, Dec. 20;
Jamaica, D.c. 22; Demerara, Dec. 19 ; 'Trinidad,
Dec. 21: Barbadoes, Dec. 29; Antigua, Dec. 30;
Porto Rico, Jan. 1; St. Thomas, Jan. 1 ; Bermuda,
Jan. 9.
The freight consists of 1,166,250 dollars (of which
25,363 are to account of the Mexican dividends);
144 oz. 6 dwt. gold, 1,1331b5. 6 oz. silver, 8111. 7s.
British coin, 37,465 francs, 194 guilders, 222 serous
of cochineal, 17 serons of jalap, 40 bales tobacco, 31
cases cigars, and 34 packages of sundries.
Serious complaints are made against the system of
subjecting the packets to quarantine at Havana, on
account of cholera in England. It is attended with
great inconvenience to the seamen, and annoyance to
passengers. The quarantine is of forty days, and the
passengers for Havana are sent on board a wretched
ship, which is made to serve the purpuse of a laza-
retto, where their expenses amount to a guinea a day.

CASE OF MIL DUFFY.
DUBLIN, THURSDAY Evixixo.
This morning (says the correspondent of a contem-
porary), an application was made in the Queen's
Bench to admit Mr. Charles G. Duffy, of the Nation,
to bail. It was made by Mr. Napier, queen's counsel,
who was followed by the Attorney-Gtncral on be-
half of the Crown.
Mr. Butt, queen's counsel, was then heard for the
prisoner, after which the Chief Justice, without
hearing the Attorney-General in reply, gave judg-
milt against the application.

INQUESTS.

TWO =MAL OTUDINTISDIOTINED IN TWO RITES LTA.
Yes'erday Mr. W. Bakrr bel3 an inquest at the
Robin Hood publie•honse, High•hill, Hackney, respecting
the deaths of J. J. R. Robertson, aged 21, end T. W. C.
Hsirby, aged 24, medical students, who were drowned in the
River Lea.

Margaret Murry stated ;that on Saturday hat she ac-
companied Hairby to the golly Anglers, adjoining the
River Lea, Upper Claptoo, where he hired a small boat
which was only sufficient te hold two persons, and shortly
after ale had embarked with Hairby, Robert:eon came up
and requested to be taken In. The boat was put back, and
Robertson jumped in and sat down by the aide of witness.
Some persons who were standing on shore cautioned Hairby
and ILbertson not to proceed us the boat, as It was too
small to hold three petsone, and that it was dangerous to
remain in her. Hanby took charge of the sculls, ant
Robertson held one of the steeruar strinp and wit-
ness the other. The boat had not proceeded far when
Hnrby said he was tired of rowing, and requested
Robertson to take the scull.. They both stood upright, and
Hsieh,' attempted to pass Robertson, and in doing so they
both leant on one side, which caused the boat to keel over
and it began to fill. They became much alarmed, and the
deceased immediately caught hold of witness, and the boat
instantly capered and turned keel upwards.
W. Waller, a bargeman, said his attention was attracted
by bearing violent screaming for awistanee, and he saw
three perms in the water. Wifnese was in a barge, and he
quickly reached the spot and sueondsd in reaming Murry.
The deceased, after swimming a short time, sank, and their
bodies were not recovered until half an hour afterwards.
The jury returned a verdict of " Accidental death."

minutes she was alarmed bydeciessed screaming out "Fire ;"
and, on looking around, saw that she was In flames. In that
state she ran down stairs, followed by witness. sad the land-
lord having put out the fire, the deemed was conveyed to
the hospital, when she died the same evening.
Mr. J. Overhead, the landlord, stated that, hearing an
alarm of fire, and seeing the deceased enveloped in flames, he

GERMANY.

PRUSSIA.—Our correspondent writes :
BERLIN, Kamm 10.
The debate on the address in the first chamber,
which opened to-day, excited great interest. The
serious attention, however, which was afforded by the
public rather mulled from the peculiarity of the Oar-
man mind, which delights in the nice definition of
words and principles, than from any real practical
question being at issue. The address, which on the
whole deserves praise from the absence of servility
tbroeghout, was, on this account, *Weed to by
several as being cold and not sufficiently grateful to
the king for his kindness in blessing Prussia with a
constitution. _ _

Professor Stahl, the leader of therieht, was the organ
of this sentiment. He objected to the coloarlessnries
of the address. The country needed not only organic
laws from them, but moral impressions, the re-estab-
lishment of the prestige of authority. The kingdom
had been mond from the brink of an abyss. Let
the merit of the men who bad served their country so
well be acknowledged with warmth. He missed
many features in the address, each as a declaration of
opinion on the state of siege, and on the German
question ; but chiefly he mined a decided manifesta-
tion in favour of authority, order, and the existing
powers. A servile amendment was proposed by
Teppe, which was immediately rejected. There was
a good deal of picking of phrases, to find which term
—whether awful, or respectful, or a variety of other
e s, were the fittest to offer to a king
Herasestina said he revered authority, but flattered
it not i and was for leaving the opening as it was.
But the main debate turned upon whether the con
siltation should be merely regarded as afirit accompli,
or a legal foundation. Sperling proposed the amend-
ment which considered it in the first light. He was
followed by Besumstark, who warned the Assembly
solemnly against declining to acknowledge the lega-
lity of the constitution. Mild* succeeded on the other
side ; but the senator who made the greatest sensa-
tion was °Neff, by stigmatising the chamber to
which he belonged as a thing thrust between the
king and people, and not chosen by the people,
for which the president called him to order.
Bergmann made an excellently well-toned,
ooaoiliatary speech, applauded by all sides, as
neither morels nor malignant. A motion was then
made for the adjournment of the chamber, which took
place at three o clock.
The ascend chamber was busied with deciding the
fate of a great variety of motions on the °swifts-
peke, wine duties, the couditation, salaries of initool-

CHURCH RATES.

which he had given notice, for the abolition of church rates;

THE QUEEN V. OAVAN DUFFY.
JUDGMENT AGAINST THE CROWN.
DUBLIN. TRUZIDAT Emmet).
At the sitting of the court this morning (says
the correspondent of a contemporary), Mr. Joe.
tine Perrin delivered judgment, on the application
of the Attorney-General to have final judgment
entered on the partial overruling of the indictment,
on the authority of Bervan ow in 1845, end of the
precedent in Ratitell. He decided that the applica-
tion must be refused, and that the prisoner most be
allowed to plead over. His lordship then ordered the
commission to be adjourned to the 6th of February,
on the ground of the state of business in the cootwt,
and of inconvenience to the jurors. Sir
Colman O'Loghlen applied for permission to admit
the prisoner to bail under the Irish Habeas
Corpus Act. The court refused to entertain the
application, which was urged by the prisoner in per
son with much earnestness. The court stands ad-
journed accordingly. An application will be made at
the Queen's Bench to-morrow to admit Mr. Daffy to
bail, founded on affidavits.

LONDON. FRIDA Y. JAN UARY 19.
Tau eagles of Prude and Austria are fairly en-
gaged in a contest for the imperial crown of Germany.
Such a struggle has not taken place for centuries, nor
indeed has there been any serious rivalry of the kind
since that with which boyish reading renders us familiar
in the opening pages of ROBERT ON.B " Charles the
Fifth." Three centuries ago, the supremaay bf Ger-
many fell to the house of Austria, and was by it be-
queathed to the house of Lorraine.
It would have been easy for Austria to have con-
verted this elective sceptre into an hereditary one,
not merely over their patrimonial empire on the
Danube, bat over that larger and more national one
upon the Rhine. But the great and guiding policy of
the House of Austria, that of religions ;laity under the
church of Rome, had the effect of alienating from it
the entire of north Germany ; and the religions in-
tolerance of that House gave birth to the great rival,
which now menaces to exclude Austria from Germany
altogether.
Disinclined as we are to religious, and consequently
invidious, comparisons, it is still impossible not to
institute one between Austria and Prussia. Both
despotic, both military, Austria by its superior clime,
its more varied and fertile productions, its posses-
sion of Trieste and a portion of Italy, was much
better adapted for the development of commercial
wealth and a civic population. And yet Prussia,
with her ingrate soil and clime, want of seaports,
and of the most obvious means of interchange, was
enablei to take the start of her southern rival, simply
by that freedom of mind inspired by the tends and
habits of a reformed creed. Under military and
imnarisl despotism, the Austrian vegetated and lan-
*
plashed ; ander military and kingly despotism the
Prussian still contrived to learn and to think, and
to develop in the large functionary class i
greater mass of intelligence than is to be

THE PROPOSED VICE-PRESIDENT OF THE

REPUBLIC.
PARIS THCRSDAT, 8 p.m.

The event of this day is the presentation on
the part of the government of three names, out
of which the National Assembly is to se-
lect one as Vioe-President of the French re-
public. At four o'clock this afternoon, M. Leon
Fauber seconded the tribune, and announced the
following ss the names presented by the president:
M. Boalay (de la Meurthe), General Baragnay
d'Hilliers, and M. Vivien.

When the first two names were announced. the
Assembly burst into such explosions of laughter as to
oocopel the President to call the hoer. to order. It is
glaruigly apparent that the purpose of the govern-
ment is to secure the election cf M. Vivian.

It will doubtlem be objected to this course, that the
real option, intended by the constitution to be left to
the Assembly, is taken away, the choice between the
three namesewming illusory, when it it so evident
which of the three must necessarily be amen.
The buresuz examined to-day the propasiti?n of
government as to declaring r tirgetsce for thetp of
law relative to the trial et the parties ins ' in
the attempt of the 16th of May. In seventh
bureau, M. Dom, procureersenerid, supported the
prowsition. members chosen of the committee
are MM. Amble Dubois, St. Romme, Augusta alai:,
Boamin, Labordere, Dopie (sine), Flandin, Desere
Corns, Vergnes, Anbry, Rinehart, Baroge, General
Penoelet. This committee is favourable to the propo-
sition of government. M. Flandin is named reporter,
and will present his report during the sitting of this
day. The discussion of the project of law will, it is
thought, be taken on Saturday.
The anstslutionnel says: " In learning that their',
trial was near at hand, theprisoaas of the affair ofl
May the 16th entered on task of choosing their
defenders. Several lawyers of the Mountain are
already designated. MM. Ledru Rollin and Theodore
Bas are to defend, it is said, the first Barbee, and the
other Albert ; M. de Courtais is to have M. Michel (de
Bonrges). As to Respell and Mancini they intend
speaking for themselves. It is not known if M.
illanc and M. Camaidiere will appear at the
trial. On leaving France they mid they certainly
would."

that tbe steamers which had received orders wore .11

having refused their mediation.

TURKEY.

Oor correspondent at Constantinople writes as
follows :
CONSTANTINOPLE. Sari. 6.

The Russian and Austrian miriaters bath sent notes
to the Porte, demanding that the Polish and Hunga-
rian refugees at present in Turkey should be given
up. A council of Turkish ministers was held last
Friday, when it was determined to reject the demand
of M. de Titoff and the Count de Stunner. The
Sultan has approved of the decision of the council,
This act of firmness on the part of the Sultan and his
ministers has given great satisfaction to the Roglid%
and French ambassador,. not unmingltd, I am told,
with a certain amount of anxiety as to what may be
the ulterior results of suck a bold measure.
Yesterday an aide-de-camp of the Emperor
Nicholas (Count Eadsivill) arrived here from
Warsaw on board a steamer from Galati. His
arrival caused a good deal of excitement in the diplo-
matic body. On landirg, the imperial aide-de camp,
who has the rank of general, received a salute of 13
guns. He has some on a special mission to the Porte.
As I anticipated, the emperor is very much displeased
with the policy pursued-by the Turkish government,
and has sent his aide-de-camp to complain. Of the
details of the general's mission not much has yet trans-
pired. It appears, however' that he his instructions
to insist that the Hungarian and Polish Warne shall
be instantly given up. There is a council at the Porte
to-day to diocese the new demands of the czar. It is,
however, generally believed in the diplomatic circle,
that the Turkish government will not change its ori-
ginal determination.
M. de Sartigee, French charge d'affaires, who a short
time ago demanded his passports at Teheran, has
arrived at Constantinople, where he waits for ins:trac-
tions from the government at Paris.
An American corvette of 20 guns, named James-
town, is at present at anchor in the harbour. Mr.
Carr, late American minister here, takes a passage in
the Jamestown to Europe. 14. Carr will be de-
servedly regretted by his friends at Constantinople, of
account of his many generous and manly Tallow,.
A few days ago an Italian merchant-vessel, with a
number of Roman and other refugees encountered an
Austrian brig in the Dardanelles. It seems that one
vessel ran foul of the other in making opposite tacks.
Some words of altercation arose, which ended in a
regular naval engagement. The Austrians were
getting the worst of the conflict, when a Russian man-
of-war schooner hove in sight, and the Italians, look-

Mg on her as an ally of the enemy, shined off. The
Italian vessel is now in port, but the refugees have
not been allowed to land.
Count Andrassy, the Hungarian envoy, is preparing
to leave Constantinople for England. He will pO.-
sibly leave this on the 19. h inst.

NEW BRUNSWICK.

We have intelligence from St. John's of a disastrous
character:

Sr. Josue (N. B.), Fan. 27.—A most destructive fire
occurred in this city last night. It broke out at half-past
eleven o'clock, in the rear of the three-story wooden build-
ing near the head of King-street, owned and occupied by
Messrs. J. and G. Lawrence, 85 a cabinet ware-room. and
tenanted by Messrs. B O'Brien, u n book store, W. Car-
ville, as a saddler's shop, and by the Order of Sons of Tem-
perance, as a division room. The fire spread with great
rapidity, and in a short time enveloped the adjoining build-
ings in 111371:1, and swept everything before it until it
reached the country market-house on King's-square, where
its further progress was fortunately stayed in that direc-
tion. Every building on the west side of King-street, as
far down as the brick building of Moses Vernon, was
consumed; and here also the eonfiegration was happily
arrested. A strong north wind prevailed at the time of the
fi-e, carrying the cinders and burning embers to a consider-
able distance. All the houses on the southern side of King
street were at one time in imminent danger. The cuaola of
Trinity church, as well as several buildings in that vicinity,
caught fire. At one time we were fearful that Old Trinity
was destined to become a prey to the flames; but the strenu-
ous exertions of our citizens, aided by the military, sired
this edifice from destruction, al•hough the cupola, and the
pillars which supported it were burned off. We reget to state
that three persons were seriously injured by the falling of the
timbers end pieces of the cupola of Trinity church, but all of
them will probably recover.
