ITALY.

The subjoined extract from a letter written at
Rome will be perused with interest :
" We are in statu quo in Rome; iniquity after iniquity
is perpetrated. The other evening they sang a Mise-
rere' through the streets, carrying the cardinals' hats,
&e., in procession, and then threw them fr, m the I'onte
Sesto into the Tiber, saying—' Addio al Papa, addio ai
cardinali.' One night they broke all the windows at the
curate's house at St. John Lateran, and at the Santa
Maria Moggiore. Mort° al PApa' is one of the cries
occasionally indulged in, and the most violent and ribald
publications are openly sold in the Corso. I bought one
yesterday, Misero al Ministro Rossi," of which the fol-
lowing is a specimen:—
" Chi piu nero scellerato
Del de Rossi gia scannato?
Miserere Domine.
" GI alla patria tutto I mali,
Tesi avea coi Cardinali
Miserere Domine.
" Quando en braccin invite e forte,
Con pugnal gli die la morte
,Miserere Domine.
" Benedetto ii terzo Brutto
Chi lo diedo in mano a Pluto
Miserere Domine.
" ' Oh the Rossi 6 nell' inferno
Conti Italia in sempiterno
Laus tihi Dominc.'

" I need not make comments on this, nor on the Pro-
visional Government that permits or sanctions it. Maz-
zini has been here, and has issued a violent Republican
address, printed as a pamphlet, to the south of Italy; he
and Guerazzi and Sterhini and Canino aro at the bottom
of all the mischief in Italy, and while they have their
heads on their shoulders no good will be done amongst
this most excitable people.
" The Pope has issued an excommunication against
those who take any part in the forthcoming Costituentc,
but generally it is laughed at. Even the people ex-
pected a civil war, as many are determined to take the
Pope's side, and many others to carry out Republicanism.
" Long ago Pasquale thus addressed the Pope:—

'
Pio! No, no.
Ma stai,
Vedremmo come to governerai.' "

STATE OF TRADE.
(From the Manchester Guardian of this day.)
MANCHESTER, THESDAY.—The upward movement
in cotton that followed the arrival of the Europa,
still to
gave increased general firmness to our market last
week ; and there occurring, at the same time, an
and manufac-
turers demand for certain yarns and goods on
tfidrmness to-
India account, some advance was realised upon
such
articles. And the same tendency continuing

our productions. However,To;
manufacturers, the trade, at least the
are an 5^ ' guine in their expectations

that a full demand will ari:-;e before the contracts in
hand shall he completed.
A report has lately been current, that Messrs.
Eglinton's house, of Calcutta, could not struggle
through its difficulties, but must finally stop payment.
This event, we regret to learn, has taken place; and
the amount of the liabilities in this country is stated
at 100,0001., falling most heavily, it is said, upon some
of the Glasgow bankers.
Accounts have been received in this town of the
destruction, by tire, of a large cotton-spinning esta-
blishment at St. Petersburgh.--we believe one of the
largest in Russia; but we have not been able to col-
lect any particulars of the loss, further than that the
manager, an Englishman, perished in the flames.
We learn from Blackburn, that almost all the mills
in the town are now running with the full comple-
ment of hands and full time. In several instances, the
adult males are working twelve hours. At ono mill,
that we hear of, notice has been given by the hands,
demanding an advance of ten per cant. on their
wages. At another mill the hands, formerly
employed twelve hours, stopped at the expiration
of ten hours' work, without having given any notice
of their intention. This occurred on Friday night,
the night after Mr. Hindley addressed the operatives.
The machine shops in the town have, for a number
of weeks, been turning out from 100 to 120 new
power-looms, weekly, but many of these are replacing
old looms.

ROCHDALE, MONDAY.—We had a thin attendance
of buyers in the market to•day, and the business
transacted would have becn rather limited, but for
some of the large manufacturers purchasing rather
freely, which has been the case for two or three of
the previous Mondays. The wool market has been
very quiet; manufacturers have purchased sparingly,
but prices are firmly maintained.
HUDDERSFIELD, TUESDAY.—The market to-day
has been rather duller, although considerable business
has been done in the Cloth Hall, in goods adapted
for the home trade. We have not heard of the at-
tendance of a single foreign buyer. The approaching
wool sales are looked forward to with considerable
anxiety, and until the results are known, we can
hardly expect to report much alteration.
HALIFAX, SATURDAY.—The sales of goods in the
Piece Hall to-day have been about as large as those
of this day week, and in most cases the improved
rates have been realised. In yarns we have no change
to report. Wool continues quiet. and prices are, if
anything, a shade in favour of the buyer.
