all which, starting frcm the cessation of the French
occupation, Italy has a right to expect as even im9

)diate results.

" We shall only say that the almost unanimous
applause with which the nation has greeted the
news of this event amply proves that the practical
sense admirably distinguishing our population has
again eeen how to direct itself justly, and fix upon
the vital point of the concerted sohtion. And this
fact has really been the greatest satisfaction which
France could give to the national honour of Italy.

" The immediate effects of the cessation of the
French occupation are of diverse nature, and are
especially iroperant in the relations of public safety.
It must not, in fact, escape any one that, if we ere
engaged by the convention to ob3crve and rcsp(ct
the obligations which the law of nations in3po:;€B
upon every State towards its neighbour, no sort of
impunity has been s'ipulated in advance in favour
of the Roman Government, in case it should permit
itself to despise or violate obligations.

"As for the more remote afeets which must be

the result, slowly, it is possible, but in our opinion
infallibly, of the moral forces
.in which we have
continually increasing confidence, the contracting
parties could not take them into consideration, and
it would not now be prudent and wise to desire to
anticipate them.
"The convention establishes nothing, and pro-
hibits nothing in this respect, so that full andcntire
liberty of action is preserved to Italy who will only
be guided by events to subordinate them to the
ends of her national policy.
" Under this head Italy, too, must rejoice in a
great conquest. We mean the application of the
principle of nonintervention to the Roman
State as to every other part of Italy—a
principle of which we have constituted and recog-
nised ourselves as the defenders and guardians.
Thus if, as your committee believes, the meaning of
the convention does not include any derogation to
our national programme, and if this det agrees iu
its results so happily with the desires, the interests,
and the honour of Italy, the approbation we ask of
your patriotism will not be uncertain.
" An amendment proposed by some of the bureau

to Art. 1 was intended to point out more clearly
the provisional nature of the measure transferring
the capital to Florence.
"Although this wish was in no way i❑ contra-
diction with the fundamental ideas of the commit-
tee, nevertheless, and after mature examination,
they determined to reject it, convinced that

the provisional character would appear better

from facts than mere words, and more espe■
cially by the preference given to Florence over
Naples, and the firmness with which we are all de-
cided to maintain the national programme.
"We considered, further, that it might be danger•
ous to open the way to amendments in a text which
the Government has almost literally transcribed
from international acts, with which it is advisable
to keep it in the most perfect harmony, so as to
avoid embarrassing difficulties."
The following letter from the Minister of the
King's Household to th 9 Minister of Finance has
been laid before the Chamber :

" Tunis, Nov. 3,

"M. le Ministre,—His Majesty is very glad that
you have fully acquainted him with the position of
the State finances.

" His Majesty has taken into serious considera-
tion the consequences of this financial situation, and
of the new burdens which must weigh upon the
nation. His Majesty cannot, therefore, but approve
of your intention to introduce the strictest economy
into the administration of public E ffii rs.

" Being desirous in some way to contribute his
part towards lightening the burdens of the country,
and animated by those sentiments of large and
spontaneous generosity whieh dictate his acts in all
circumstances, his Mcjesty has resolved to renounce
three millions from the civil list for the approach•
ing budget of 1865, and successively until more
prosperous times.
" It is also his lihjesty's intention that several
properties now assigned to the Clown shall be
placed at the free disposition of the department, by
hich they may be turned to u3eful account.
"1 request you, M. le Ministre, to make known
these intentions of the King to Parliament, and to
receive the assurances of my most Cistinguished
consideration,

MARK-LANE.

The supply of English wheat on sale at our market to-day
was but moderate, Both for red and white (jollities the
trade was firm, and Monday's prices were well supported.
There was a fair average supply of foreign wheat on the
stands. The demand ruled far from active for all descrip.
time ; nevertheless, previous quotations were fully main-
tained.

Floating cargoes of grain moved off slowly, at late rates.
Good and fine barley moved off steadily at full prices ;
otherwise the trade was quiet, on former terms. The
market was fairly supplied.
The malt trade was dull, and prices had a drooping

tendency.
With oats the market was well supplied. In most de-
scriptions a lair avert ge business was transacted, at ful

currencies.

Beans and peas met a slow sale, at late rates.

..._
For flour the trade was quiet. I❑ prices, ccmpared with
Monday, no change took place.
