ITALY.

From Turin we learn that on Thursday tranquil-
lity had not been disturbed anew. The deputies,
the national guard, and the municipal council of
the capital, have expressed their attachment to the
ministry.
It is positively stated that the difficulties which
had arisen between the Holy See and the Prussian
Government relative to the measures recently pre-
scribed for mixed marriages have been smoothed
down, and that the Cabinet of Berlin no longer
insists on their withdrawal.

The Tuscan consulate at Rome has been sup-
pressed, and a consular councillorship dependent
from the Tuscan legation substituted in its stead. _

The Giornale di Roma publishes a decree, dated
the 12th, of the Minister of Finance at Rome,
announcing, in the name of the Pope, that the col-
lection of the arrears of the tax previous to 1853 on
professions, established by the decrees of October
14 and November 29, 1852, is suspended until the
end of 1854. This tax is entirely remitted for the
whole current year, and the first six months of
1854.

The Univers, in giving an abstract of its private
correspondence from Rome, states as a rumour that
M. de Boutenieff, the Russian Minister to the
Holy See, has been recalled to St. Petersburg,
having incurred his imperial master's displeasure
for not having opposed with sufficient energy the
beatification of Father Bobola, the Polish Jesuit,
which is to take place on the 30th inst. ; and for not
having displayed greater activity in exercising
espionnage over the Russian and Polish Catholics
residing at Rome, or going there on a pilgrimage.
But a version which the Univers thinks more pro-
bable is, that M. de Boutenieff's disgrace is owing
to his not having succeeded in getting the Pope to
appoint a certain priest, recommended by the Em-
peror of Russia, to a bishopric in Poland. Besides
the highest recommendations, as stated, the said
pretender to the honours of episcopacy had abun-
dance of money at command, and, as the Univers
assures us, a good stock of cunning and intrigue ;
not enough, however, it would seem, for the court
of Rome. Having lost his labour, he returned to
Poland as he came, and laid the fault on M. de
Boutenieff, whence the latter's disgrace.
The Parlamento of Turin of the 18th inst.,
states that Mr. Brett had concluded his arrange-
ments for the establishment of the electric tele-
graph along the coast of the islands of Corsica and
Sardinia. The wire, which is to unite them with
Piedmont, is to be ready for the Ist March, 1854.

MOSS AND MADELEY TESTIMONIAL.

Several months past we announced that the liberals
of Derby had projected a testimonial to be presented to
Mr. Moss, their present Mayor, and to Mr. Madeley,
who so ably assisted him in bringing to light the nefari-
ous practices and plots carried on by the Conservatives
of Derby, assisted by their W.B.'s, Frails, Morgans,
aid Coxs, to undermine the constitutional liberties of
their native land. This has been carried into effect, for
on the evening of Tuesday last two valuable and noble
groups of plate were presented to the worthy and inde-
fatigable gentlemen above named (the particulars of
which will appear in The Sun of Monday).
After the wide continents of the public press upon the
conduct of Major Beresford and his coadjutors in their
attempt to substitute Mr. Horsfall and bribery for Mr.
Heyworth and honesty, little more need be said in re-
gard to conduct requiring only to be known to be de-
precated by all truly conservative Englishmen. In
commemorating, however, the true and generous spirit
of the liberals of Derby, we feel that a few observations
may be tolerated ere we dismiss the subject to the re-
cords of political crime.
On Saturday last, at Castle Hedingham, " there was
a sound of revelry by night," but he, the former great
champion of their Conservative battles was faraway, the
freemasonry of corruption had been found out, and deso-
lation and despair had passed grimly into the halls of the
Carlton ; and to this same festive occasion Major Beres-
ford, their former idol, came not, but a faint, low, wailing
missive proceeded from the sombre shades of Hampton
Court, complaining of the injustice of those enemies who
had brought his guilty deeds to light. So at length has
a great luminary departed from the cycle of Tory corrup-
tion. Let us pity rather than despise the fallen hero,
the last great enemy of purity of election, "sic glories
mundi transit !"

Messrs. Moss and Madeley deserve the thanks of all
true men of every shade of opinion, for the skill and in-
domitable energy they displayed, in bringing this flagrant
ease to light, through the publicity of which corruption
has received a death blow ; for, from this time is the
British public hydra-headed and argus-eyed, nor can
secret plots be laid and hatched by any body of dishonest
men, even though they be possessed of the gold, influ-
ence and cunning of even a Carlton-club. We, as Eng-
lishmen, add our quota of thanks, and we trust they
may long live to protect the interests of that borough.
which gave them birth, and whose political annals they
have adorned.

On the NECESSITY of an IMMEDIATE RELAXATION of the
CURRENCY ACT of 1844,
to prevent the present monetary pressure being aggravated into a
monetary panic, as disastrous as that of 1847 ; and on the urgency
of providing a legal tender as a temporary substitute for gold ab-

our monetary system, and the periodical recurrence of monetary
panics.

COUNTRY MA.RKTITS.

LIVERPOOL—Om. 21.
Large speculative transactions in wheat and flour have
been passing in Brunswick-street the last few days at ad-
vancing prices, and the demand is continued. The advance
since Tueaday may be called 2d to 3d per bushel on wheat,
is to is 6d per barrel on flour, and 2s per qr. on Indian
corn. New oats and oatmeal easier. Barley, beans, and
peas maintained late rates.

WAKEFIELD—Om 21.
Oar supply of wheat is moderate, good of barley, but
short of other grain. Holders of wheat demand consider-
ably enhanced prices. Millers therefore confine their ope-
rations to the supply of their immediate wants at an ad-
vance of 3s per qr. on new, and 2s per qr. on old. Barley
is to 2s per qr. dearer. Beans fetch our highest quotations-
Oats and shelling the turn in favour of the buyer.

LONDON, WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 2S, 1853.

So—the conibined fleets have not entered the
Black Sea—and Persia has declared war against
Turkey and the allies of Turkey—and the RUBSian
AUTOCRAT has decided against, instead of in favour.
of, any further negotiations, unless preceded by
enormous concessions to the-Cabinet of St. Peters-
burg—and at Stamboul corn has risen from 25
to 50 piastres—and at Paris the funds have fallen
in_twenty-four hours 65 centimes (though since
tlien the 3 per Cents. have somewhat rallied)—
and at London it turns out to have been all (what
shall we call it ?) a Ministerial flaw about Lord
PALMERSTON'S resignation.

That's about the amount of the " latest intelli-

gence."

And now towards the close of December, the
Press generally, including even the organs of the
Cabinet, are beginning to recognise the utter im-
practicability of anything like a pacific settlement.
December finds them talking of an expedition in
the spring into the Baltic. December finds them
talking of the advisability of sending our maritime
armaments into the Euxine, instead of letting
there amuse themselves with sham fights in the
'l74ters of Constantinople, while a Russian squadron
j's'• battering down the walls, and sinking the,
Turkish
ships, and massacring the Turkish
population. of
Sinope. It is even hinted
at —in December
that perhaps, after all,
it may be judicious to assail Russia by way of
the Crimea, and
to Carry, without further delay,
" a heavy blow and great discouragement" to the
Councils of NICHOLAS, by a vigorous attack upon
hi .s arsenal and dockyards at Sebastopol. Why
r.ll this we insisted upon eight or ten months ago.
We maintained that these Would, indeed, be
" wise, just, and beneficial measures"—not in
December, but in April. We proclaimed last
spring the urgent necessity of repelling the
naressions of the CZAR by energetic acts, instead
of by the feeble words of a frivolous and timorous
effort at diplomatic compromise. We pointed out
the vulnerability of Russia both in the direction
of the Black Sea and of the Baltic—both by the
Sound and by the Bosphorus. But Ministers were
*obdurate. They were infatuated in a belief in the
efficacy of negotiation through • the British,
French, and Prussian 'Ambassadors at the .Court
of Schoenbruun. How justifiable was this
confidence in the adroitness of diplomacy, the
world has seen long since through that re-
doubtable Vienna Note which had to be explained,
and then ineffectually explained, by receiving
commentaries in the shape of a series of (to the
Czai at least) wholly inadmistsible modifications.

SPIRIT OF

JOURNALS,

sail well. Our plan has been totally different to
this. We have built our vessels in Government
yards by men who have been hired because they
were safe voters—not because they were good ship-
wrights—and the consequence has been that ships
of war are produced at a huge cost, some of them
rolling so enormously that the lower guns are
useless unless the sea is smooth'as glass ; others that
will not sail, and others that will not steer. Our
wasteful blunders have been innumerable, but these
proofs of mismanagement are allowedto float idly, en-
cumbering the Navy List, costing large sums of
money for repairs and superintendence, and form-
ing a constaut excuse for hanging upon the taxes

Bth Nov. the men, who have not had liberty for eighteen
months, sent in a petition on the subject to Admiral Pel-
lew, who immediately ordered the ship to be got ready
for sea. In the evening there was a noise below, when
the drum was beat to quarters, and some of the men re-
fused to come on deck, upon which the officers were
ordered to compel them at the point of the sword, and
in doing so several of •the men were severely wounded.

vibe went to a masquerade, and ordered her to be dis-
charged.

The remainder of the night charges were for drunken-
ness. The magiarate ordered -all the prisoners to be
discharged. The chief.6l them, however, were women.
John. Bri,stow, owner-and driver of a cab,, was charged
with plying for hire with a horse in an unfit state to be
worked.

Inspector Townson, the officer appointed to examine
cab horses in.the district, having proved that the animal
was s!Aivering, and hardly able to stand,
Mr. Beavitt, who attended for the defendant, said it
was as good a horse as any driven in a cab, and that his
client was offered at the time 12 . for it.

Mr. Townson had seen the horse that day, and he be-
lieved it• fit to use, but when he saw it on the cab stand
a week ago it was weak and tottering.
Mr. Beavitt said that was caused by the animal just
coming off a long journey, and by remaining on, the
stand a few minutes it would have recovered.
Mr. Combe replied that that was no excuse. Cabmen
must understand that if their horses were overdriven
they must not put them on a public cab stand, but take
them to a stable, where they could remain until re-
freshed. As this was the first case, and as it did not
appear that the horse was injured, he should merely
order defendant to pay the cost of the summons.
