The Conservative majority has therefore gained by
5,845 votes. The success of the moderate party at
Berne has been received with acclamation throughout
all Swi zerland. This is the rudest check which the
Radical party has ever experienced.

market this morning the trade ruled dull, the fact of holders

JAMAICA MARKETS.

A very general inactivity has been the prevailing fea-
ture of our market during the past fortnight. No spe-
culative inquiry whatever has been manifested, and the
operations of the trade, confined almost exclusively to
the supply of their immediate wants, were restricted and
unimportant. Supplies of imported goods are, for the
most part, on a moderate scale, but holders have failed
to derive any advantage from the circumstance in the
present depressed condition of the market.
Sugar and rum share very largely in the prevailing
inactivity. But few purchases are being made fer ex-
portation; the current low rates, for the former articles
especially, in the home markets, deterring dealers from.
speculating. The deliveries into Kingston have also
been considerably- in excess of the trade demand, and

for the first time during the present year on the 9th.
The Royal Gazette says—
" The-best feeling appears to animate both sections of
it; there being an evident desire on the part of the offi-
cials to relieve to the utmost possible extent the pressirre
of,the public burdene, and an equally evident desire on
the part of the elective section to avoid all unnecessary
discord and dissension with the other branch of the
Court. Already a large number of the items of the
estimate have been gone through; and while no one
' can accuse the members of squandering the revenues se
their command, so neither can they ba found fault with
as yet on the ground of mischievous parsimony. The
general opinion seems-to be, that, although some ques-
tions in which there will be wide differences of opinion,
are likely to arise, the present session will, upon the
whole, pass over smoothly."
The weather during the fornight preceding the de-
parture of the packet bad been showery and favour-
able for the planters—not less than 11,048 hogsheads
of sugar were exported between the Ist of January
and the 10th inst., being 4,552 hogsheads in excess
of the quantity exported during the corresponding
period of 1851. Toe weather, though fine for agri-
cultural purposes, has been very sickly, and many
have been the victims of fever in its various fatal
forms since the commencement of the year.
AN-not:A.—The weather continues painfully dry,
and the crops are consequently suffering greatly.
Strong_ breezes have prevailed of late, and sugar-
making is progressing as -favourably as the labour
market will permit.

ROYAL ITALIAN OPERA.

There was a good hou..e on Saturday to witneas
Doniz.tti's I Martiri, which was substituted for the
Prophete. The applause bestowed upon Madame
Jullienne, Tatnberlik, and lionconi, in the grand
finale to the-third act, and upon the first two in the
..veewhelining duet of the fourth, was quite deafening.
Madame Julienne may be considered an accepted
favourite. Having, conquered her nervousness, she
has now uncontrolled possession of her resources, and
her voice comes out with immense effect, even against
the'` unrivalled high notes of Tamberlik, wbo, by his
performance in I Maritiri, has raised hini.,elf to a
position beside the first tenors " di forza" of whom
the records of the Opera make mention. is due
to the triatrigemcqlt to add, that every precaution was
.u.it,d to mks the public acqaainted with the fact of
th-i inevitable postponement of the Propliete, and that
all who had purchased tickets were allowed the choice
of rretiving their money back or of using the pri-
vilege a second time, whenever the Mitt of Made-
moiselle Wagner should take place at the Royal
Lelia!' Opera.

The President said that without fitting attention on
the part of the Members themselves, it was im-
possible to avoid errors. As to the observations of M.
Gouts, they should be inserted in the Moniteur. M.
GRANIER ]E CASSAGNAC, returned for the Gers, but
whose admission had been postponed in order to
allow time to present the documents necessary to
justify his age, country, &c., was declared to be duly
entitled to sit in the Chamber. M. BILLADLT read a
decree from the PRESIDENT of the Republic trans-
mitting to the Legislative Body various Bills of local
interest.
After the presentation of several reports on local
Bills, the sitting closed at three o'clock, and the
Legislative Body adjourned to Thursday, when the
Budget, with which the Council of State is actively
occupied, will be presented.
The Patric of Saturday contains the following
paragraph :
" We have reason to believe that the Minister of
General Police has intimated to the proprietors of foreign
journals that they will have to rectify in their own
columns tho falsehoods (fausses nouvelles) that may be
published in them, under penalty of bavAug their entry
into France interdicted."
It is announced that M. TRIERS has passed through
Cologne on his way to Italy, and that M. Bixto also
woposes to visit the same country.

foundation for the statement that the remembrance of
thAt event would be uniavourable to a new appropriation I
of the buitding. Why should i ha so it, as is proposed, the '
building is pieced under the highest guarantees that girth
and position in the country afford, for the uses to be
mad of it? Again, as to the applicability of the Palace
for the reception and display of those monuments of art
now mouldering in dark cellars, what justification can
the commission plead for the manner in which they have
dealt with this suggestion ?
(c) Loukingcarefully through the evidence, it is
impossible to avoid being struck with the style of inter-
rogation which the chairman of the Commission
adopted, and the complete negli':ct of, and even hostility
to, the public interests involved in the inquiry, which the
shape of the questions asked betrays. Mr. Cole's evi-
dence, especially, is a remarkable example of this, and
reminds one more of a cross-examination in a court of
law than of a courteous elucidation of opinion from a
Government servant in every way qualified to give the
best and most impartial testimony on the subject.
Ir. It would not be difficult to state many additional
reasons why this report should be condemned by the
voice of public opinion and igaored by Parliament; but
the object of this paper is to place in as concise a form
as possible the main grounds fir doing so.

substance, was the case upon which she relied. Ho
forbore making any comment upon the affidavits, be-
cause upon that part of the case they were all 01 ono
side. It was euoieth to say that garded the
ground Miss Hayes brought forward, of fraud and
misrepresentation, to induce her to enter into the
agreement, there was no evidence before the Court at
present to induce the Court to act upon it. Then there
was another ground taken. It appeared that Mr.
Wardwell, who bad entered into a contract with Mr.
Beale, had assigned the benefit of that contract to a
person of the name of Anthony, and upon the allegation
that Beale had broken his contract with Wardwell it
was stated Anthony was suing Mr. Beale in the United
States, and was proceeding to attach the amount claimed
by Beale from the, plaintiff, under this agreement, as
part of 4r. Beale 's money in her hands. The case, as
to this part of it, was, therefore, that Miss Hayes, in
respect to this demand, was liable both to Beale and to
Anthony, he (Anthony) having signed an attachment in
America. This would be an ordinary case of interpleader,
and Miss Hayes would be
entitled to relief upon the usual
terms upon which a plaintiff in an interpleader suit was
entitled to relief ; but then th e plaintiff in an interpleader
suit, as a preliminary condition to obtaining. the assistance
of the Court, must make an affidavit that there was no
collusion with the defendant in equity. Now, not only
was there no affidavit of the plaintiff's here to that
effect, but, so far as the Court was at liberty to judge from
the circumstances, upon which, his Honour said, he
made no comment (as that was not the proper time to
make it), ha thought that, judging from these one-sided
affidavits, it did not appear to him that the plaintiff
could make an affidavit that there was no collusion be-
tween herself and Mr. Wardwell, or Mr. Anthony, as
claiming under Mr. Wardwell. He did not think, there-
fore, upon that ground that the plaintiff in the inter-
pleader suit was entitled to an injunction. He believed
that Mr. Anthony might be made a party to the pro-
ceeding in the Lord Mayor's Court, if the plaintiff de•
sired it. But the Court could declare nothing as to
that. On the ground he had already mentioned, the
absence of any affidavit denying collusion, therefore he
declined making any order upon the motion.
As to costs, which were asked by Mr. Malins, his
Hoefoun said they must be governed by the general
rule, that the costs of the motion which failed must be
costs in the cause.

ITALY.

",Our correspondence from Rome of the 4th (says
the Constitutionne/), informs us that on the 2d the
distribution of the new eagles took place in St. Peter's-
square. About 6,000 men were assembled, includ-
ing artillery. General Gemeau, accompanied by
Generals Levaillant and Borelli and their staffs, as-
sembled all the officers in a circle round him, and
addressed them in a very warm and energetic manner,
after which he read the formula of the oath, which
every officer took by holding out his hand, and re.
peating the words "Je le jure." This impos-
posing ceremony concluded with the distribu-
tion of thirty crosses, which the Pope had
placed at the disposal of the General to be di-
vided among the different regiments. A great uum-
ber of persons assembled to witness tins imposing
ceremony. Among them were the Russian and
Austrian Ambassadors, the majority of the members
of Ve corps diplornatique, and all the high aristecraey
now in Rome. In the evening, the members of the
miTary club invited the Pontifisial authorities and a
number of the principal inhabitants, who had shown
attention to the French officers, to join them in
drinking punch. Tne Ministers of the Interior
and of War, Monseigneur Borromeo, the Cham-
berlain of his Holiness, Monseigneur de Segur,
the new auditor of the Rola, &e., were present
On the 3d, General and Mme. Gemeau gave a grand
bell, which was numerously attended ; at the recep-
tion, which preceded the ball, Cardinal Antonelli, and
a great number of Roman prelates, were present.
The difficulties which stood in the way of raising re-
cruits abroad to form a solid nucleus for the Pontifical
army having been removed, that measure will now
be speedily carried into effect ; but before the Pon-
tifical Government launches out into too considerable
expense for this purpose, would it not be desirable
that France and Austria should come to an under-
standing on the measures to be taken to
withdraw their troops simultaneously from
the Roman territory, and on the period when it
could take place without danger ? It was
hoped at Rome that the Emperor of Austria would
on this subject follow the impulse of his heart in as-
sisting the Papal Government to that end in concert
with France. The person named Murray, who has
been so much talked of in the journals, and in the
English Patliament, and who had been condemned
to death after a trial which lasted three years, will
probably be executed with his accomplices. They all
formed a band like that of the famous Zambranchi at
Rome, killing without mercy those whom they called
suspected, chiefly priests or the most respectable pro-
prietors of the country. 150 victims :are known to
have fallen between Ancona and Sinigaglia, and the
English Government has in its hands all the proofs of
the crimes committed." (?)

IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT.

(THIS DAY,)

HOUSE OF LORDS:
The LORD CHANCELLOR took his seat on the Wool
sack at Five o'clock.

MAYNOOTH.
The Earl of WINCHILSEA gave notice that in the
course of the next session of Parliament he would move
for a Committee to inquire whether the moral and reli-
gious principles inculcated at the College of Maynooth
are not subversive of all Protestant government.
Lord BROUGHAM said that the course proposed by
the Noble Earl was certainly better and fairer than that
taken—he would not say where—but certainly riot ix
their Lordships' House.
The Duke of RICHMOND presented a petition from
the farmers of Sussex, complaining of the present mode
of assessing the property-tax.
GREAT WESTERN,
SHREWSBURY, &c,,RAIL-
WAY.

Lord BEAUMONT
185 rose to move the suspension of
the standing order, No.
sent. 1, with regard to the
,
Great Western,
Shrewsbury, and Birmingham Rail-
way, and Shrewsbury and Chester Railway Amal-
gamation Bill.
This standing order, known by
the name of the " Wharneliffe order," was to the
effect that in the case of an Amalgamation Bill, the
consent of four-fifths of the proprietors should be
obtained at a meeting held for that purpose. When first
created it had required only the consent of three-fifths,
but within the last two years it had been extended to
four-fifths. In the case of the present Bill, which had
been passed by the Commons without opposition,
as being a Bill of the greatest importance, but when it
came to their Lordships' House, it not being denied that
four-fifths of the proprietors had not consented to it,
although three-fifths had, the Committee of Standing
Orders had no other course to report but that the stand-
ing orders had not been complied with. He thought
that this was a case where their Lordships might, not
only without danger, but even with advantage, suspend
this standing order, because this question was
no less than whether there should be only ene
means of communication between London and
the Mersey, between London and Ireland—
whether all the traffic, and all the important transactions
conducted between those two points of the kingdom
should be confined to one single means of communication,
and whether the possessors of that means of communica-
tion should be the possessors of a monopoly.
Lord LYNDHURST said that this standing order was
made to protect tho minority against the rage for specu-
lation among the majority, but it had never been in-
tended to stand in the way of any great public advan-
tage. He believed that on the ground of public policy,
and for the benefit of the public at large, their Lord-
ships were justified in complying with the motion of the
Noble Lord.

Lord REDESDALE roso to oppose the motion, and

ROYAL MERSEY YACHT CLUB.
A grand and spirited sailing match of this distill.
guished club took place on the Mersey on SalurdaY.l3sV.
The start took place from the Marine-station at Birken-
head, and on a signal from the steamer, by the Commo-
dore, a gun, the yachts canted round to the wind, the
Bacchaute, Aquila, and Vision leading, closely fol-
lowed by the Seabird, Surprise, Fidget,
and Constance.
The race was for two elegant and valuable prizes, for
the first and second class yachts, time allowed for dif-
ference of tonnage, the first yacht of each class taking a
prize. Much nautical skill was di...played during the
contest. The Bacchante showed her power of sailing in

soon after starting if she escaped being disabled, Elba,
other casualties insuperable from a race in a breeze 01
wind, misfortunes which she had encountered during
the two years previous. The far-famed yacht Vision wall
defeated on this occasion, having also been beaten by
the Scotch cutter Aquila. The Vision was not in
trim, that was evident, and she may:yet retrieve her lost
laurels on a future match. The Seabird sprung her
boom early in the contest, and left the second class race
I entirely between the three small yachts, Surprise, Fidget,
and Constance, the Surprise coming in the winner of her
class, and the Bacchante the first class prize.

responded to. After drinking the beaLh of her Majesty.
and giving three cheers for the worthy Commodore, the
steamer took her company info port and landed them at
the Prince's Pier head. It was really a day of enjoy-

li; hted with the aquatic treat they had witnessed, and
the courtesy shown to the company by the officers of the
Royal Mersey Yacht Club, under its excellent manage-

On Friday the convict Abel ovans underwent the ex-
treme penalty of the law in front of Monmouth county

ing it in a stream of water at Newport.

is,
however,
ing to the statement of Ovens, it was she who stripped
the child of its clothes and threw it into the water.
When the respite was made known to Dove, she ex.

claimed, " Ah, I knew they would not do it; they dare
not." However, since that time she has made certain
statements to those who have attended upon her in pri-
son which tend to corroborate what her paramour had
previously stated; and the governor of the gaol, Mr.
Barrett, thought it to be his duty to proceed to Loudon
to lay those statements before Mr. Justice Wight-
man, which he did on Thursday. At four o'clock on
Friday morning a letter was received from the Home-
office, directing the full penalty of the law to be carried
out on Ovens, but not on Dove, and the drop, a simple
piece of mechanism, was erected in a couple of hours.
By seven o'clock in the morning a large concourse of
spectators had congregated from the surrounding district
of,Dean Forest, Chepstow, Ross, Collford, &c., in front of
the gaol, and by nine o'clock, the hour appointed for the
execution, upwards of 4,000 persons had congregated in
view of the drop. Of these a large majority were
women, who behaved in anything but a becoming man-
ner. Many arrived at Monmouth on the preceding
night, and others had to travel through the night. At
the appointed hour the culprit ascended the scaffold with
a firm step, and having shaken hands with the under-
sheriff, the governor, and Calcraft, the cord was adjusted
and he died without a struggle. After remaining sus-
pended the usual time, the body was cut down, and the
crowd dispersed.
