plied to the steamship Donna Maria Anna, which had been

The plaintiff claimed for extra mists and sails and other
rigging, and the defendant contended that he was bound to
supply those articles under the contract, and further that
they had • large claim as a set off for petudities for delay in
delivering the ship.
The learned judge said it appeared to him that there
were several questions of law upon the construction of the
agreements,' to the various chines ol claim, and that the detaihi

that the questions on the construction of the contract
should be left to the own, and then if upon the result of
that construction any matter of detail were considered

The UfLANCILLOR of the FIICCHNTIER moved the
following 111114•411 d resolution : " That in aid of the charges
of customs istablinhanente incident to the conduct of trade
and to the statistical accounts thereof, there shall be charged
as follows, upon all article', except corn, grain, or flour, and
timber sad wised‘goods, upon the importation thereof- -per
or pined, ; animals, per head, Id. ; goods, in
Liclltleor each unit of entry, Id. ; with power tothe Lords
of the Treasury to frame regulations for adjusting the
amount of such payments in certain caseis.„.trialtertaii the
unit of entry, or quantity, or number of which as to
form the unit of entry for the purpose this charge, so
that the charge shall, as little as may be, exceed one
quarter per cent. on the goods of the lowest value usually
imported under the denomination ; and every person enter-
mg goals for exportation at the custom:l4lmin be required
to prosiest to the proper officer of customs a copy of his bill
of lading in respect of snob goods, with a correct endorse-
ment thereon of the particulars and value of the goods com-
prised in such bill of lading, and that such copy of the bill
of lading so presented shall be deemed the entry ootwardsfor
such goods, and be charged with a duty of Is fid."
The right hoe gentleman stated that alterations had been
made in the first resolution, which caused the amount to be
derived from it to be 70,000 f. lees than the 300,010. ori-
ginally expected. He proposed to postpone that relating to
chops on operations in warehouse., as some objection was
made to it. Altogether there would be a diminution of
rerveooc expected on the three chugs' of 100,0001., owing
to the modifications which had been made in them.
Some debiste of a desultory character ensued on each of
tho resolutions. On that relating to charges on good"

TO THE FRENCH DOCKYARDS.

PhicountllNGAßNOliiiiiidTeFirsilord of the
Admiralty whether the report that from 400 to 500 work-
men had bran discharged from the dockyard at Portsmouth,
there being no employment for them, and were now ea-
u shipbuilders at Cherbourg and other porta of
rgraenced . was comet. It wan well known that great activity
prevailed in the French dockyards, whether with a view to
put the country in an efficient state of defence, or with •
view to as aggresaion on some other power, he
could not of course say; but the report to
which he referred had caused great uneasiness in the public
mind; and he should therezore be glad to hear from the
noble duke either that the statement warn unfounded, or
that, at ell events, the state of our own navy was such es to
be quite satisfactory to the noble duke.
The Duke of 8011ERSCT—In order that I may reply
with clearness to the question which the noble viscount
his put to me, I Will divide it into two parte. First, ia tli
true that between 400 and 500 workmen have been dis-
charged from 'Portsmouth dockyard! and, secondly, are
they engaged in ahip-building at Cherbourg or other porta of
France! Now, as regards the first of these two questions.
I can answer that a good many men have been discharged
since the commencement of the financial year. Last year,
when I came into ogee there was a programme of very ex-
tensive works to be performed ; and on examination I
found that we should not have either enough money
or men snow to complete it within the year ;
therefore, took another vote for 100,0001.,
and added tionsiderably to the number of men
in the dockyard ; and during the last four or five months
of the last financial year there was a larger number em-
ployed than had ever been the case since the commence-
ment of the present century. In fact the number was

APPEAL BY THE KING OF NAPLES.

PAM. FRIDAY, Jess &
The King of Naples has not only addressed the
Western Powers, but he has also invoked the
simultaneous intervention of the five great Powers,
in order to obtain from their collective action the
guarantee for the integrity of his states.

King Francis 11. hie more particularly claimed
the mediation of the Emperor of the French for the
pacification of Sicily, aml has promised to proclaim
immediately the constitution of 1852.

His Majesty has also requested the five groat
Powers to employ their authority and their
influence to restrain Piedmont from favouring any
revolutionary movement on the mainland of the
kingdom of Naples.
As regards the collective action of the great
Powers, the English Cabinet was the first to reply
that it did not intend to interfere in any other way
in the conflict between the Neapolitan troops and
Garibaldi than to stop, if possible, the effusion of
blood, without siding with either party.
After this answer given by England the other
great Powers likewise, in more or lees positive
terms, declined any direct intervention.
Napoleon 111. was at Lyons when fit Thonvenel
transmitted to his Majesty by telegraph the de-
mand for mediation made by the King of Naples.
His Majesty replied immediately that a mediation
was only possible between two powers, and unless
officially recognising the Sicilian revolution, no
power could place itself as mediator between the
same and the King of Naples.
Lord John Russell has, however, promised to
recommend to Piedmont not to foment any dis-
turbances in the Neapolitan possessions in the
Peninsula.

Except Austria, who does not maintain diplo-
matic relations with Piedmont, the other great
Powers will act in a similar manner.

AUSTRIA.

afterwards ensued. The damages were laid at 5,00 W.
A number of witnesses having been called in support of
the plaintiff's case.
Mr. Butt, in addressing the jury for the defence, con-
curred with his learned friend as to the magnitude of the
loss which the plaintiff sad her family had sustained, and
mid the sad accident which had led to that loss was as
deeply deplored by the directors of the railway as by any-
one But the real question was, had that accident been
caused by any neglect on the part of the company or their
servaMs. He apprehended that the jury, when they should
have heard the evidence which it would be his duty to lay
before them, would beef opinion that it had not, but that
it had resulted from ► want of proper care and caution on
the part of the unfortunate deceased himself. It would be
shown that he and the pas eegers were duly cautioned not
to get out, and that Mr. Grim persevered ID doing so while
the trade was in motion, and was thrown down on the out.
side of the station.

out of the bankruptcy of James Wt.:lure, jun., general

OARLIST tIOVEIIENT IN SPAIN.
The following despatch Ors been received at the
Spanish Luba, :
" MADRID, TUeeDAT, P.N.

" General Ortega, Commander of the Balearic
Isles, embarked the troops under his command
and disembarked them near Tortoee. As soon
as the troops obtained knowledge of his pro-
ject they refused to follow him, and General
Ortega was obliged to take to flight, pursued by
his soldiers, who have remained faithful to the
Queen. General Ortega is still at large, but is
being closely pursued. Perfect tranquillity prevails
everywhere. Private advioes say that General
Concha sent troops against General Ortega, and
that other troops were also despatched from all
parts of Spain to suppress the movement. The in-
surrection met with little sympathy. Several loyal
addresses have been forwarded to the Queen.
" The Bank of Barcelona has offered 40,000,000
to the government."

" From my own private sources," writes the
Paris correspondent of the Times, " I learn that
Count Montemolin, now proclaimed as Charles VI.,
arrived in Paris 10 or 12 days back ; that he met
here Cabrera (with whom he became reconciled after
a long estrangement), General Elio, and some
other's of less note ; that he proceeded to the
Balearic Islands, of which Ortega, formerly an
ultra-democrat, was captain-general ; that Ortega
and the garrison proclaimed Don Carlos ; that they
landed at Valencia, where they were well received,
and Montemolin also proclaimed, it is said, by the
troops. Montemolin was accompanied by Cabrera
and Elio in the expedition ; Elio, who is • native
of Navarre, no doubt to try to raise the north, and
Cabrera Catalonia and part of Valencia. A friend
of Cabrera has advanced 24,0001. to Montemolin."

import is 77,591 bales

COTTON GOODS.—Msucniurren, APRIL 3. —ln the
cloth market there is no change to notice since last week,
either as to business or prices. The market is quiet and dull,
partly owing to the higher rates of discount, and partly
through the abseooe of either letters or telegrams from
India, but buyers are unable to get any advantage in prices,
inanufacturers appearing to be still fully engaged with con-
tracts of more or less standing, whilst there are no stock,
on hand to affect the market. The Indian &deices are now
overdue, end their arrival is looked for somewhat anxiously.
Cloths for other markets than India are also steady. The
market for yarns is very quiet, and spinners who are coming
out of contract are inclined to take rather lower rates. These
remarks apply to yarns suited to all markets—three of
India, China, Germany, the Mediterranean, and the home
trade. Buyers for the Continent are still actuated in sus-
pending operations by the political news lately current,
thosish the feeling from this source is scarcely marked by so
much tuatesumes as it was last week. In their review r 4
the market during the past month, Messrs. Robert Freeland
and Brother, in their circular, issued this day, obeerve :
During the first three weeks of the month our market was
comparatively inactive, there being very little fresh business
transacted, and prices yielded about 24 per cent. Within
the last ten days, however, there has been an active demand
for India and China, and for goods adapted to those markets
quotations are now on a par with those at the beginning of
the month. There has been more irregularity in home trade
makes during the mouth than has been observable fur some
time, and, where contracts have expired, there is great anxiety
on the part of the manufacturers to renew them at a con-
cession in price. This remark applies more particularly to
9.Bths printing cloths. The total shipments of cotton piece
goods and yarns for the month have been 95,146 packages,
against 100,683 for the same time last year. To Calcutta
they amount to 24,414, against 23,716 same time last year
and to Bombay 3,187, against 9,240. The average for the
previous twelve months is 19,297 and 13,379 respectively.
To China, shipments are continued on a large scale-5,7611
packages to Hong Kong and 3,921 to Shanghse. The fol-
lowing classification shows how the month's shipments have
been didributed : .

MAIAZING A RILBA6BD CONTICT.

The Imperial Court of Paris, presided by its tint
president, M. Deviants*, on Saturday gave judgment on
appeal, in • case of great social importance, which ham made
ouniiderable stir in French legal circles. A reepectablo girl, the
daughter of • small tradesman, married • man who turned
out to have been • convict. He wee some years ago found
guilty, as an acceseary, to • murder, and tratenced to fifteen
years' imprisonment. A part of his punishment was sub-
sequently remitted, but not until be had remained in prison
eleven years. The wide had a fortune of 20,000 fr.--• large
scan for her station In life. When she found out
that her husband was • released convict, she brought
• suit for nullity of marriage, and relied upon
Art. 180 of the Code, which declares a marriage void
when there is • mistake u to the identity of either of the
parties. The Court of the First Inatauce declared the mar-
riage good. Nevertheless, M. Bethmont, the emir:eat es-baton-
Bier, argued the cam very urgently on appal, and imitated
particularly that sins the law, in certain cases, actually re-
lieved • woman from a marriage on account of a conviction
for fekny against her husband, it was to be presumed that
when the fact of bis having been • convict was concealed,
she wou'd not Dave married him had she known it.
The answer to this argument was that a convic-
tion for felony by removing the husband from the
wife renders him incapable of fulfilling the duties
of a husband. A released convict is under no ineepaeity.
The want of knowledge of the antecedents of a man consti-
tutes no mistake as to the identity of his person. The
Court of Appeal, although it took time to consider, has
ooalinned the judgment of the court below.

SARDINIA.

TURIN, F.M. 4.

The Opinions refutes the accusations of the Patric
concerning the conduct of the Sardinian govern.
ment in Savoy. Sardinia has ever shown great con-
fidence in Savoy and Nice, which have always justi-
fied it by their exemplary fidelity. The Piedmo•-
teas Government has left those provinces without
troops, thereby allowing the inhabitants the free
manifestation of their feeliegs. At the last com-
munal elections in Savoy and Nice, the party favour-
able to separation did not obtain the majority. Ttie
idea of nationality must not be forced upon the
people. In case Sardinia should obtain sufficient
compensations and strategic positions, and should
the annexation of Savoy to France then be naked
for, it might be granted; but it is very difficult for
Nice to become French. Nice protests against it by
her acts; her interests are also contrary to it. There-
fore these two distinct questions must not be mixed
together. Sardinia is the friendly, loyal, and grate-
ful ally of France ; but as lung as Austria possesses
Venice the principle of Italian nationality cannot be
developed. Austria will be • permanent threat
against Piedmont, and no power would require that
Piedmont should weaken herself.

'f he journals of this day publish an Anstrian ord i-
