UNIVERSITY INTELLIGENCE.

CAMBRIDGE. WEDNESDAY MORNING.--At a Lumen;us
mee,ing of the, Members of the Senate held on
Monday, it was proposed by Professor Corrie, and
r:'solved, to riresent a memorial to the
V,ce.Chancellor, to tho following effect:—"That tho
undersig!nd members of the Senate, being not fully sa-
tisfied with the constittrion of the proposed Syndicate
fir the revision of the statutes of the University, re-
spectfully request the Vica-Chanpllor to withdraw tha
grco for the present." The memorial was to be pre.
sented this morning.
Just as we are going to press we have received tho
following announcement by electric telegraph:—
" Cambridge, W.duesday, Feb. 14,
Twenty-two Minutes past One.
"The grace for the appointment of the Syndicate bet
been withdrawn."

We have also been informed that the order of the
Chapter of Bristol, concerning reading the service in
the c.th,dral, was rescinded at a meeting yesterday; but
the Dar, as Oudinary of the Cathedral, has Riede A
frts,h cyder regani,g certain portions of the sA-vice to be
read in future.—London Guardian or yesterday.

ITALY.

The Grand Duke of TUSCANY is still at Sienna.
There was a rumour that the Duke of MODENA had
fled from his dominions ; this rumour, however, has
not been confirmed.

The Alba, of the 7th inst., says its correspondence
from Parma and Bologna of that date makes no
mention of the occurrence.

La Conotituente Italiana says it is probable the
cannonade that was heard was nothing but the firing
at Bologna to celebrate the opening of the Roman
Constituent.

At Rome, on the sth, the Chambers were opened
with great solemnity, and amidst the joy and en-
thusiasm of the people, ARMELLINI, the Minister of
the Interior, read a discourse, in which he showed
the incompatibility of the temporal and spiritual
power of the PorE, which was much applauded
GARIBALDI called on the Assembly in the first place
to proclaim a Republic.
General CHIODI is appointed the new Minister of
War at Turin. The Chamber of Deputies at its
sitting on the 9th elected for its President the Mar-
quis LORENZO PARETO.
La Castituente Italiana (Florentine paper), of the
ith FebruatY, has news from Naples to the Ist. Its
correspondent in that city announces as positive the
opening of protocols for the conclusion of a treaty
between Naples, Austria, and Russia, for the subju-
gation of Italy. The French and English Ministers
are, it is said, greatly scandalized and highly indig
nant. There is reason to believe that the departure of
the Piedmontese Ambassador was in some way con-
nected with this affair.

The provisional military Governor of Parma has
sent a circular to all the communes of the Duchy,
in which, after mentioning the manifesto of Dr.
TIMOTBO RIBOLI, inviting the electors of Partna, in
the name of CHARLES ALBERT, to assemble in cer-
tain towns, for the purpose of electing deputies to the
Turin Chamber, the Austrian authorities are di-
rected to warn the inhabitants, on pain of severe
penalties, not to obey the said summons, declaring it
to be illegal.
The Neapolitan Chambers were opened on the Ist,
and immediately adjourned to the 3d, when it was
rumoured that they would be opened under new
auspices, a new Ministry proposed, and a new line of
policy pointed out. The 3d, however, passed without
any realisation of these anticipations ; the Chambers
held their second meeting, 'tut nothing was done but
the verification of the ?owers of new Members. At
Naples all was tranquil. The Sardinian Minister
had broken off all friendly relation with the Neapo-
litan Government. On the 3d the Fires were at 811.
Exchange on London, 583.
The Venice Gazette of the 3d contains a notice, in-
viting the Deputies of the province of Venice to as-
semble in the Ducal Palace on the 9th, for the dis-
patch of business. The Austrian balloon scheme for
the bombardment of Venice has utterly failed.

HANOVER.

HANOVER, FED. 7.—Tbe Crown Prince has coun•
tersigned the declaration of hip MAJESTY, wherein he
gives his Royal assent to the project of constitution,
including the various changes in the fundamental
laws which have been passed by the Legislative
Chambers.—Prussian States Anzeiger, Feb. 12.
London, England, 1849-02-15

FRANKFORT.

In the sitting of the German Parliament of the
12th, the Austrian note was read in extense. The
President of the Central Ministry (Vox GAGRRN) pro-
posed to refer the note to the Constitution Committee.
HERR REICHENSPEROAR moved that merely a minute
be taken of the reception of the note in question, and
HERR JAHN that the House proceed to the order
of the day without taking any further notice of the
document. HERR BESELER observed that the best
answer to the note would be the constitution for
Germany.
Herr Von Gagern—Gentlemen,—l have to respond to
two observations on the part of previous speakers. I-
must repel, in the first place, the accusation that the
Ministry, as such, endeavoured to exercise undue in-
fluence on the discussion of this question, and the ar-
rangement of the order of business. On the contrary, I
took steps for gaining time, in order to come to an un-
derstanding. In the second place, I must state
that I do not consider this rescript of the Austrian Go-
vernment to its Plenipotentiary to be in any way an an
ewer to the communications which Ministers have made
at various periods in pursuance of the powers con-
ferred upon them by the National Assembly with refe•
rence to negotiations with Austria. The Austrian Ple-
nipotentiary coincides with the view I have taken in
looking upon this rescript as no answer to the commu-
nications in question. Were it otherwise, gentlemen,
and had I to look upon this rescript of the Austrian Go-
vernment to its Plenipotentiary as an answer to the com-
munications of the Central Ministry, I should have con-
sidered that it was my duty to give an account of all
the steps taken by the Ministry since the power referred
to was conferred on them; for, by such an answer, that
authorisation would be at an end.—(Applause.)
Herr Berger (Vienna) proposed the formation of a so-
called " concordance committee," for the examina-
tion of the Austrian note.

Herr Fuchs (Breslau) observed, that the labours of
the National Assembly must be soon brought to a close,
if it proposed to come to a concordance with each of the
thirty-four German states. He should never vote for a
concordance committee.

Herr Venedey—The Austrian note has a tendency
to degrade us. It shows that the Austrian Government
is not desirous of coming to an understand with us, but
with the princes of Germany.
After some other observations, the Assembly de-
cided, by a large majority, that the Austrian note
should be referred to the Constitution Committee.

LYCEUM THEATRE

Last evening the performances were by " special
desire," her most gracious Majesty and Prince
Albert honouring this attractive and elegant theatre
with their presence, to witness the performance of
Planche's very successful extravaganza, The King of
the Peacocks. The august party arrived shortly be-
fore eight o'clock, and were received at the theatre
by the heads of the establishment, who conducted
the illustrious visitors to the royal box. The whole
of the performances passed off with peculiar success,
and the beautiful fairy burlesque extravaganza was
more than usually effective. The witty 'dialogue and
pungent satire seemed last, evening more telling, the
songs and parodies more clever and amusing, and the
brilliancy of the scenery, the gorgeousness of the
dresses and appointments, and the acting of the whole
of the characters more admirable than ever. The
whole of the performance, indeed, passed off with
the greatest eclat, and was evidently highly ap-
preciated, not only by the royal and distinguished
visitors, but by one of those densely-crowded
audiences which have since Christmas nightly at-
tended this favourite theatre. An attempt was
made by some part of the audience to pub-
licly notice the presence of royalty, but the
better sense and good feeling of the vast majority
prevailed, and the royal party enjoyed the entertain-
ments of the evening undisturbed by any obtrusive
yet loyal demonstration. This is the more to be re-
joiced at, as the noisy and general notice usually
taken of the presence of the Queen whenever her
Majesty honours our theatres with a visit incog.,
we really believe tends to lessen the number of those
visits, which are of such great advantage to the
theatrical profession. The laughable farce, The Ap-
peal to the Public, was also very successful in raising
constant and hearty merriment. Mr. Charles Mathews
was all life and spirit as the hero, and his exertions
were repeatedly recognised and rewarded by all
present. The Queen and Prince Albert were at-
tended by Lady Charlemont, the Hon. Miss Caven-
dish, Lord Listowel, Lord A. Paget, and Colonel
Seymour. The house, as already observed, was
crowded.

SPAIN.

Madrid journals of the Bth have arrived.
The Clamor Publico says that the report of the
death of CABRERA, which was announced with such
pomp in the Ministerial journals, is totally without
foundation. He has not been even dangerously
wounded, his only hurt consisting in a slight wound
in the thigh. The victory of Colonel Reuss over
CABRERA was not nearly as complete as stated by the
Ministerial j ournals • indeed, had not Reuss been rein-
forced by the arrival of artillery during the battle,
his column would have been annihilated.
The total export of wine for Port St. Mary and
Xeres during 1848 was 31,807 butts; of these,
27,252 were exported to England, and 312 to the
British colonies.

SICILY.

The Pensiero Italiano of Genoa announces, under
date ralenno, Ist inetant,
that the wail steamer

had landed in this last city 132 French soldiers, com-
ing from Algeria, and 9,000 muskets, 8,000 of which
were intended for Palermo, and 1,000 for the
National Guards of Trapani.
The 12th January, the anniversary of the revolu-

tion, was observed -at Palermo by rejoicings. It is
also the anniversary of the birthday of the King of
NAPLES, and at Messina every Sicilian cautiously
abstained from quitting his residence, lest he should
be suspected of intending to show honour to the
fete-day of FERDINAND the Bombarder.
Count AMARI has been appointed Minister of the
Finances, and M. RAELI Minister of the Interior.
The Treasury at Palermo was rich, and the country
was perfectly tranquil. The University of Palermo
re-opened on the 13th of January. General TRO-
BRIAND, who served under NAPOLEON, and General
MIEROSIAWSKI, a distinguished Polish officer, have
placed their services at the disposal of the Sicilian
Government. The army of Sicily consists of 17,000
disciplined troops, besides irregulars and guerillas.
The whole are well armed. There are eighty foreign
officers at present in the Sicilian service.

PRUSSIA.

The First Chamber of Prussia on the 3d adopted
the articles in the constitution which authorise the
Government to promulgate in certain cases, without
the intervention of the Chambers, ordinances having
the force of law ; and it also fixed the conditions
under which modifications in the charter may be
made.

In the last sitting of the Second Chamber of
Prussia a Bill was presented, enacting that the postage
of a letter shall henceforth be one silbergros (12ic.)
for ten German miles ; two silbergros for a distance
from ten to fity miles ; and three silbergros for any

COMMON PLEAS _(THIS DAY.)
BELL, PUBLIC OFFICER, V. WELCH.
This action, which was brought by the plaintiff, a
public officer of the :National Provincial Bank of
England, against the defendant, upon a guarantee
bond, was tried at the last sittings in London, before
the Lord Chief Justice, when a verdict was found
for the plaintiff for 1,0001.
Mr. Sergeant CHANNELL moved, with the leave of
the Learned Judge, for a rule to show cause why a
nonsuit should not be entered, or why the damages
should not be reduced by 11'9/. 10s., or why judg-
ment should not be arrested. It appeared that a Mr.
Pinney, jun., got an advance of 1,0001. from the
branch bank at Blandford, where he kept an account,
upon giving a guarantee for the repayment of it,
signed by the defendant and another person. The ver-
dict was not denied, and one of the grounds urged on
behalf of the present application had reference to the
indistinct nature of the guarantee. Upon the point of
reducing the damages, it was contended by the
Learned Counsel that they should be reduced by
1791., the amount paid into the bank by Pinney
subsequently to the sum secured by the guarantee
becoming due.
The COURT granted a rule.
MASTER V. BARRETTI.
This action was tried before the Lord Chief Justice,
in Middlesex, when a verdict was returned for 701.
Mr. Sergeant BYLES moved, with the leave of the
Learned Judge, for a rule to enter a verdict
for the defendant. This was an action in as-
sumpsit upon a promissory note for 651., drawn
by the defendant, and made payable to his
own order. The note was as follows:—"Three
months after date I promise to pay to my own order
the sum of 651.—J. A. Barretti.' Under the writing,
in the body of the note, was written " payable at
Messrs. Walter and Peaces," and on the back of it
the endorsement "J. A. Barretti." The note was
paid away in a gambling transaction. The main
points relied upon in making the motion were that
the declaration was wrong in describing the note as
payable generally, when it was only payable at
Messrs. Walter and Pebber's, and that as the note
was paid on a gambling account the transaction was
illegal.
The COURT, however, refused to grant the rule.
London, England, 1849-11-08

SMITH V. HAMILTON.

Mr. Sergeant BYLES also applied in this case,
which was tried before the Lord Chief Baron in
London, and in which a verdict was found for the
defendant, for a rule to show cause why there should
not be a new trial. The motion was made on
affidavits, and on the ground of surprise. The action
was brought to recover 1,5501. under a policy of in-
surance in the Sun Fire-office, the house of the
plaintiff having been destroyed by fire. A person
named Kapatick had been employed by the plain-
tiff to make out the claim, which he set
down at 1,5001., but when called upon to give
evidence at the trial he turned upon the plaintiff and
said that the goods destroyed were not worth more
than 9001., and that be had been induced by plaintiff
to make out the fraudulent claim of 1,5001. Having
been thus taken by surprise, they were unable to
call witnesses in order to contradict his statements.
The result of the verdict would be entire destruction
to the plaintiff; he was a young man just entering
upon business, and if he lost the sum of money he
claimed, he would not only lose all, but his cha-
racter also.
The COURT granted a rule.
London, England, 1849-11-08

BLOMAN V. BURY.

In this case, at the rising Oriiie Court, defendant's
solicitor attended to claim costs of the day. He said he
was in court at three minutes past eleven.
The UNDERSHERINF said punctuality was the soul of
business, three minutes too late was as bad as a longer
time. The case had been struck out in consequence of
no person appearing.
The Court rose after a sitting of ten minutes.

MARLBORO -STREET-THIS DAY.
Charles Thompson was brought before Mr. Jardine
charged with having stolen an accordion, value eighteen
shillings, the property of Mr. Joseph Keith, musie-
seller, 318, Oxford-street. _

Yesterday afternoon, about five o'clock, the prisoner
went to the prosecutor's shop, and told the shopman that
he was sent from Messrs. Duff and Hodson for two ac-
cordions, as they wanted to show them to a custumsr who
was waiting to make a purchase. Believing the prisoner
to be in the employ of Messrs. Duff and Hodson, the
shopman delivered an accordion to the prisoner, and sent a
lad with him with the other. On arriving at Messrs.
Duff and Hodson's the prisoner requested the lad to go
in first, whilst he wiped the dirt oft his shoes, but no
so ,ner had he entered the shop than the prisoner bolted
off as fast as his legs could early bins. The lad pursued
him, calling out •• Stop thief," half way down Oxford-
street, when he was stopped by a cabman, who handed
him over to a police-constable. The accordion was found
in his possession.
The prisoner, who pleaded hunger as the cause of his
committing the robbery, was fully committed for trial.

the insurgents as were not too deeply implicated in
the late war to exclude them from the benefits of an

On the 16th a placard appeared on the walls of the
Austrian Consulate, offering safe conduct and free
pardon to such of the refugees, who were Austrian
subjects, from sergeants downwards, who were desirous
of returning home. On their arrival on Austrian
ground, the stout and active will be enrolled in the
army. This amnesty includes cadets and subaltern
officers of the Honved. Those %ll° attained officers'
rank, and the officers who formerly followed the
Imperial standard, must consent to appear before a
commission, appointed to examine them. This pro-
clamation is said to have been read with joy by the
unfortunate men, and between two and three thousand
availed themselves of the offer, and were shipped off
in an Austrian steamer that had arrived from Orsova
for the purpose of bringing them back to their country.
It was believed at Vienna on the Ist November

THE PUNJAUB.

Mr. G. THOMPSON gave notice that to-morrow
evening he would ask the First Lord of the Treasury,
whether her Majesty's Ministers, having deemed it
their duty to print a report of 678 pages
relating to the island of Ceylon in July last, did
not think it equally their duty to print a
report relating to the disturbances in the Punjaub, de-
scribed in her Majesty's Speech from the Throne as a
rebellion which has been going on since April, 1848.
to suppress which an army has been maintained, involv-

State for Ireland whether it was the intention of her
Majesty's Ministers to call for any instalment of the ex-
pense of building workhouses in Ireland?

Sir W. SOMERVILLE was not aware that any such
intention existed, but he would make inquiry on the sub-
ject, and furnish the Hon. Gentleman with the result.
