THE FAIRS.

Despite the chilliness of the weather the diversions
at Greenwich, Stepney, and Chalk Farm were multitudi-
nously attended. The ammeements were precisely the same
as thew which have been in vogue for years. At Green-
wich the successors of the great Richardson supported
the British drama by performing • play and a farce
in the short space of twenty :oiliness through-
out the day. "The Riders," humble imitators of
Francoai's and Astlers, jumped through the usual
samba, of hoops, from the old, ateedy, easy-trotting pie-
balds hag favourably knows to the Greenwich public. The

It was crowded with dossers, sad vialtants— who seam

WEST INDIES.

In our yesterday's impression we presented our
readers with an abstract of the news brought to
Southampton the previous day by the Clyde. More
ample details are subjoined of the insurrectionary move-
ment in St. Lucia—the movement in favour of respon-
sible government in Jamaica—Governor Barkly's
dead lock at the outset of his career in Guiana—
and the suggestions of Lord Dondonsld for an
important development of the resources of Trinidad.
It is not often that the same West India mail has
brought us so much intelligence of real weight and
moment.

COFFEE.--Srbeequent to the date of our last till towards
the close of the month business was limited, and prices de-
clined about 100 rely. Oa the receipt, however, of more
favourable advice* from Europe the market revived, and con-
siderable sales of ordinary descriptions were effected for the
Channel and the north of Europe The demand for that
quarter hu since extended itaall else to the better qualities,
and caused a rise on the same to fully 100 raja. Operations
to the United States have latterly ben materially checked by
the continued receipts of discouraging accounts from that
quarter. The inquiry a now chiefly confined to green good
first and superior qualities, with which the market is but
scantily supplied. Shipped in February, 113,922 bags.

BRAZILS.

On Sanday night, the Seawall packet, Lieut. Smile
arrived at Falmouth from Rio Janeiro, whence she,
sailed on Feb. 27, having on freight about 30,0001.
The rebellion at Pernambuco is the chief subject in
our advices. The whole of the disposable forces, both
military and naval, hive been sent up from Rio, also,
the new war steamer the Alfonso, which proceeded
on Feb. 23, with 800 troops. Her Majesty's ship,
Griffon had also sailed for the same port to assist, if
necessary, to protect the British residents and their

. -
property.
The effect of the disturbances at Rio on the stock
had been a fall from 87 to 86i. Montario, one of
the disaffected leaders, got on board the Penguin
packet at Pernambuco, on her way to Rio, but, fea-
ring to land there, took passage, per branch packet
Kestrel, for the river Plate on Feb. 27. Supposing
that the Chamhers were sitting he originally intend, d
to have landrd, but his friends, of whom a great many
visited him, persuaded him to escape. The Chambers,
it was generally supposed, would not be again con-
voked till November.
Her Majesty's ship Amazon, Capt. E. Troubridgo,
arrived at Rio, on Feb. 23, from Liberia, on her way
to the East Indies and China, and remained, with the
Hydra and Crescent, and Penguin packet.
Dates from Pernambuco to the 3rd of March have
been received is Liverpool. These &manta bring
gloomy intelligence as regards the peace of the pro-
vince whichis likely to be again disturbed, as the
rebels had gathered fresh courage and considerable
reinforcements, and had again advanced on the city.
Exchange ruled at 27 d. There are also a few days'
later dates from Bahia, but there is nothing new to
report. Exchange, 26 d.

The telegraphic despatch ooncerning the defeat of
de Piedmontese army was read at the beginning of
16 sitting of the Cortes yesterday, by the minister of
pen and jostles, ; after which the discussion on the
Men the ergesisstien of the senate as a court of
)ndes took pleat. It has been the fats of this bill
ie be discuss& at a time when the minds of the
deediss are toe much absorbed to pay much attention
nits importance. Last year, at the moment of its
dhesseioe, the news of the proclamation of the French
Mpablic wired, to excite the hopes of the opposi-
tion, and disturb the beatitude of the ministry;
gad sow the disasters of the Piedmontese army are
related is Wes of exultation by the Moderados, to
the no small mortification of their opponents. After
a speech from Gomez de la Suns, in opposition to the
Mil, Ca'deron Callantes rcee to di fend the report of the
cimmittte. After a speech which the all-abeor bing news
from Piedmont rendered every one inattentive to, he
wes interrupted by the president, and the minister
el gram and justice communicated to the chamber the
Mws of Charles Albert's abdication and the arrival
if Rmletski at Turin.
"la the senate, the discussion on the bill concerning
the dotatiou of the clergy and public worship was
gone on with. Pena y Aguayo and Lopes Balleateros
spoke in a most inattentive house, the telegraphic de-
"tau reed by Narraez having attracted the laten-
t= of the members to such a degree that nothing
she was thought of.
"In the evening, the Moderado papers published the

WAR IN THE NORTH OF ITALY.

The Earl of ABERDEEN;eislttatoinu;rwhes the
papers relative to the war in the north of Italy would be
produced. Three months bad pawed since they had been
promised by the government ; and he knew trout his cape-
riei.oe that, let these pepsin be what they might, there
could have been no diffi.ulty in producing them more than
a month ago. It was for their lordshil a to judge why they
had been delayed, and, above all, why such a want of re-
spect had been shown to their lord-hips' house.
Lord EDDISBURY could not answer the question until
he had communicated with the noble lord at the head of
the foreign department.
The Marquis of LANSDOWNE made smne observations,
which were totally inaudible iu the gentry.
Their lordships adjourned at a quarter before 6 o'clock.

THE EMBARKATION.

Jut previous to her Majest)'s embarkation, the Earl of
Cfarendon presented George Roe, Esq., to the Sovereign,
when her Majesty was most graciously pleased to esprees
her perfect satisfaction at all the arrangements made by
the Dublin and Kingston Railway Company for her Ma-
jesty's reeeptien sad departure. Her Majesty having em-
braced his Royal Highness Prince George of Cambridge
sad the Countess, of Clarendon, and meet cordially taken
leave of the Earl of Clarendon, and the other distinguished
personages by whom she had been attended to Kingstown,
the gangway was drawn on shore, and the Victoria ant
Albert was east 411 from the quay. Lieutenant Hutchison
had the high honour of taking the steamer into the bay,
paring slowly round the inside of the east pier, and on
approaching the lighthouse her Majesty, the Prince, and
royal children mounted the starboard paddle box, when
the vast multitnde which covered the pier cheered most
enthusiastically, when the noble Prince, the commodore,
his officers, end seamen of the royal yacht, returned the
plaudits of the grateful and loyal respects of her Irish sub-
' jects with three hearty cheers. Her Majesty remained for
a censiderable time on this elevated stand admiring the
same, and Lord Adolphus Fitselarrnee honoured Lieut.
Hutchison by iatrodumng him to his Royal Highneu
Prince Albert, who stated he wee gaits satisfied with the
arrangements in the harbour, and the moaner he had per-
formed his duty from this entering in until the departure of
the royal squadros.
The manner in which the steamers and yachts left the
harbour, following the royal yacht, was ea picturesque and
animatind as ean be concaved. La Hogue fired a salute of
21 guns.

When the royal squadron bad mod to be in view, the
vast multitudes began to retire to their respective homes,
and until long after midnight the railway trains and the
ears were busily occupied. The tilts by the latter varied
from two to four shillings for a passenger, according to
the exigency of the case and the anxiety of the party to
reach town.

This is the last " chronicling " for the present of the visit
of our gracious Sovereign, and such an impulse hee been
given to every commercial pursuit—such a feeling of almost
chivalric devotion for the Queen has been manifested—that
it is with an assured hope of the great and glorious results
likely to flow from her royal presence in all its individnality
that we speak the few fervent words of gating, "Nay God
bless her! —Sasauters's News Letter.
