ITALY.

The Opinione of Turin of the 22d, states on the
faith of correspondence from Genoa, that GUERRAZZI,
who had been sent to Leghorn a prisoner, has been
claimed by the British Consul, and embarked on an
English merchant vessel.
The Piedmontese Gazette contains a royal decree,
dated the 21st, in virtue of which the Duke of GENOA
is provisionally invested with the royal power during
the illness of the KING. It further publishes the sen-
tence of the Court of Cassation on the appeal of RA-
MORINO. The Court rejects the appeal, on the ground
that military sentences are not subject to cessation in
time of war, and that the existence of an armistice
does not alter the case, on account of its being a mere
military convention. The Court, therefore, refuses to
take cognisance of the allegations made by General
RAMORINO in support of his appeal. In consequence
of this sentence, RAMORINO was shot on the 22d, at
half-past six, A.M.
The Messagiere Modenese, of the 18th, states that
the Austrians had begun their march upon Faenza,
and that their ;head-quarters were at San Lazzaro,
near Bologna. By a notification of the civil and
military Austrian Governor GORZKOWSKI, of the 1811,
at four P.M., Bologna is declared in a state of siege,
the press is placed under preventive censure; the
civic guard suspended, the corps francs dissolved, and
arms of every description are to be given up.
The Riforma of Lucca announces that the entrance
of the Austrians into Bologna took place on the 17th.
The Roman troops of the line, stationed at Fuligno
and other places in the vicinity, have marched for
Rome.

The 2fonitore Toscani, lately denied that the Grand
Duke of TUSCANY was a party to the Austrian inva-
sion into his states. The same paper now contains a
manifesto of the Commissary-Extraordinary SENIS-
TORI, dated the 18th in which the intervention of
Austria is gratefully acknowledged, as may be seen
from the following paragraph :
" Tuscans, the assistance which the Imperial and Royal
Austrian Government has given to Leopold 11., was
loudly called for by the general condition of the Penin-
sula, and by the necessity of putting a stop to the dis-
turbances which lacerated Central Italy."
At Rome, on the 17th, the Triumvirs issued a
proclamation stating that hostilities were suspended
between the Roman Republic and the French. At
the request of M. LESSENS, the French Envoy, the
Assembly nominated three of their members to have
a conference with General OUDINOT. On the 16th a
division of 12,000 men left Rome in order to attack
the Neapolitans at Albano.
The Opinione of Turin publishes a circular ad-
dressed by the Triumvirate to the presidents
of the provinces, dated the 15th, in which it
is stated that Rome begins to reap the fruit of her
courage; that the arrival of M. DE LESSEPS
proves that the former hostile attitude of the
French forces was merely owing to the
instructions relating to the intervention having been
misunderstood ; that further hostilities are suspended,
and the military expedition is reduced to its true
limits; that the nature of the Roman question is con-
sequently different from what it was in the outset,
since France must either now fight on the Roman
side, or assist the latter byher moral influence. The
document further directs that this intelligence be
everywhere made known, to confirm the people in
their determination, and that the populations be or-
ganised as a levee en masse, for which purpose the
Central Government has sent an experienced officer
into the four northern provinces, and another to the
central ones; as for Naples, the circular declares that
Rome alone will effectually check attacks from that
quarter.

Letters from Rome of the 21st state that M. LES•
SEPS bad delivered in an ultimatum, consisting of
three articles—one stating that the French troops
had been called for by the Roman Republic, a second
admitting the right of the Roman people to choose
their own form of government, and a third permitting
the entrance of the French troops, which ultimatum
had been submitted to the National Assembly and
rejected unanimously.
These letters also state that the Neapolitans had
retired to Veletri, where GARIBALDI was in great
force. The probability is that they have been de-
feated at Albano.

The Tuscan Moniteur states that the following are
the bases proposed by M. LESSEP3 to the Roman
Government for a conven'ion :—The spontaneous
reestablishment of Plus IX., with all the liberal and
constitutional guarantees claimed by the people of
Rome, and the surrender of the quarter of the Vati-
can to the French troops pending the negotiations.
The siege of Venice continued on the 15th. On
the 13th the Venetians made a successful sortie, and
dislodged the enemy from one of their redoubts.
Marshal THURN had arrived to take the command of
the 2d corps of reserve, in place of General HAYNAU,
who has been summoned to take a command against
the Hungarians.
The Austrians were about to quit Leghorn on the
24th, tranquillity being completely restored. Flo-
rence also remained quiet.
The Piedniontese Gazette of the 23d states that the
King of SARDINIA was better, the fever having some-
what abated, and his MAJESTY had had a calm and
refreshing sleep.

MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS.

CITY, QUARTER TO THREE.
The sales of Cotton. at Liverpool amounted to from
4,000 to 5,000 bales; 4,000 American realised nd. to
€id., 40 Bahia 4id„ and 200 Surat 3d. to 341 d. per lb.
The market closed heavily.—Railway Shares were quite
inactive, and prices were lower again.
In Mark•lane to-day a moderate business was trans-
acted, as regards most artic!es of grain, and last week's
prices have been well supported.
Upon the subject of the Iron trade we have the fol-
lowing in Aria's Birniingham Gazette of to.day:—
"It is always much easier to induce a downward
than an upward tendency, and this, together with the
hesitation iu giving orders manifested by a large Lon-
don house, whose opinions, from the extensive nature of
its operations, generally influence the movements
of our leading firms here, induced us to offer
a guarded report of the late quarterly meetings,
and the then prospects of the trade. Events have
fully justified that caution. It is notorious that, even by
first-rate makers, Iron has been sold throughout the
quarter at less than the nominal rates latterly; as much
as 20s. under, particularly in Liverpool and London,
where the Welsh Iron greatly interferes pith the Staf-
fordshire market; while those who, from principle, or
from other motives, refuse to concede, have been left in-
active. Indeed, much doubt has been expressed whether
in any single instance Bar Iron has bona fide realised 71.
10s. Sales of Pigs have also been reported from
a Staffordshire maker under 3/. per ton, though
not extensive; nor does the disposition to sell appear so
marked as among manufacturers. Several furnaces have
been put out of blast, and the make of others consider-
ably reduced, to avoid as much as possible the accumu•
lation of stocks. That the workmen will quietly accede
to the proposed reduction in their wages seems to be
unquestioned. The advance was altogether as unex-
pecttd by them as it was thankfully received; and under
the present cheapness of all the necessaries of life, they
will easily accommodate themselves to their former earn-
ings without inflicting any distress upon their families."
The continental advices are not of political import-
ance to-day, but the letters received by firms is the City
are not generally written in more confident or satisfac-
tory terms than those already to band, if we except
perhaps those from Paris. There, great expectations
are formed of the power and ability of the new Assem-
bly to give a better tone to public feeling, and to allay
the mistrust that was arising from the presumed hostile
intentions of the Socialists on the one band, and the re-
actionary views of the Ministry on the other.
The Hamburgh accounts of Friday last advise us of
continued negotiations for peace, but at the same time
notice the more rigorous enforcement of the blockade.
There were three Danish frigates off the mouth of the
Elbe, and English, American, and other ships had been
alike prevented from leaving. A Spanish vessel was
chased and captured. Whether the Germans will
attempt any naval exploit remains to be proved, but
two war steamers, the Lubeck and Hamburgh, had gone
to sea from Cuxhaven.

Business at the Baltic ports was exceedingly dull, whe-
ther in grain or other articles. At Odessa the stock of
Wheat was nearly 100,000 quarters, although no fresh
supplies had been received.
St. Petersburgh letters of the 18th instant, state that
for many principal articles the markets were materially
better, and that there had been increased dealings.
The great work of drying the Harlem Lake is fast
drawing to a close, according to the Dutch papers. Al-
ready the water is reduced to one metre below the level
of Amsterdam.

The intelligence from the United States and Canada
advises no particular alteration in mercantile affairs.
The rate of exchange on London continued at 108 i to 4-,
being steady. Freights were without change, but
trade was exhibiting marked signs of improvement ;
and was expected to be considerably better. Money was
plentiful, and had been exceedingly easy since the pre-
vious steamer left. Cotton was dull, and provisions ge-
nerally were cheaper. The excitement in Canada con-
tinued to interlere with business, but no further acts of
violence are reported.
There is scarcely any business doing in the English
securities, and the market has varied but little,. Consols
being 91* to 4. The New Three-and-a• Quarter per
Cents. have been 90a I-, and the Three per Cents. 89i
to 90. Bank Stock is worth 1934. Exchequer bills
have been 45s to 48s ; and India Bonds, 69s to 71s
premium.

In the foreign market there is no buoyancy, but the
dealings are very restricted. Mexican have been lower
again, viz. 291 to 30 with, and 27i to 28 without the
Coupons. Portuguese Four per Cents. have been 27;
Chilian Bonds are 911. Dutch Two-and-a-Half per
Cents, have been 49 to 41. Spanish Three per Cents. are
nominally 321 to 1; and Brazilian old Five per Cents.
77 to 79.

Railway Shares are flat again, and the English lines
are in some cases rather lower. The French are sup-
ported.

MARKET NEWS.-(THIS DAY.)

CORN-EXCHANGE.-MONDAY.

The arrivals of English Wheat and Malt for this
Market last week, coastwise, were somewhat on the in-
crease; but those of all other articles of home produce
were small. No Grain reached us from Ireland; and
the receipts from Scotland were very small. The foreign
imports were tolerably extensive, viz., 13,592 quarters of
Wheat, 13,248 quarters of Barley, 22,775 quarters of
Oats, 17,611 quarters of Beans, 439 quarters of Peas,
41 quarters of Tares, 2,599 quarters of Linseed, 83
quarters of Rapeseed, 1,549 quarters of Indian Corn, and
sundry seeds; 3,502 sacks and 560 barrels of Flour.
The weather to-day is very damp and humid. The
accounts received from nearly all parts of the
United Kingdom relative to the general appear-
ance of the growing crops are very favourable.
The quantity of English Wheat received fresh up to this
Morning's market from Essex, Kent, Cambridgeshire,
4e., was very small, but of full average quality. By land
carriage the receipts were confined to a sew pocket sera-
phs from Essex. The supply being exceedingly small,
and the attendance of country millers on the increase,
the demand for all kinds of Wheat of home produce,
especially for selected parcels, was steady, at prices fully
equal to those obtained on this day se nnight, and at
Which a clearance was effected at an early hour. With
foreign Wheats we were again fairly supplied. There
was less inclination on the part of the dealers to operate
111 this article; hence sales progressed slowly. Really
fill() samples sold without difficulty at full
rates of currency; but all other descriptions
moved off slowly, at barely stationary prices.
Scarcely any business was doing in floating cargoes,
°.,wing to the late large arrivals at the principal outports.
/slither lower terms would have been accepted to effect
sale& No English Barley at market. The supply of
foreign was somewhat large. Grinding samples were in
fair request at very full prices, but malting and dis-
tilling sorts were neglected, yet we cannot call them
cheaper. The sale for all kinds of Malt, the supply of
Which was moderate, ruled heavy, and late rates were
with difficulty supported. With foreign Oats we were
again largely supplied; the quantity of English, Irish,
and Scotch was very small. For most kinds the demand
Was in a very sluggish state, at barely stationary prices.
Indian Corn was firm, and oating Cargoes of Galatz were
taken, chiefly.for Ireland, at 33s to 36s per quarter, freight
and colt. Indian Meal was quite as dear. The market
Was well supplied with French Flour, which was taken to
some extent, at from 30s to 35s per sack. Other kinds
Of Flour moved off slowly, at late rates. Although the
Supply of foreign Beans was large, English samples were
steady at full prices. Peas were in short supply and
Moderate request, at late currencies.

Only about 130 Beasts and 300 Sheep and Calves have
arrived at the northern outporta from Holland. The
fresh supply of stock for this market by sea from Ire-
land, has been confined to 7 Oxen. From Buenos
.Ayres 1,597 trcs of preserved Beef and Mutton have
come to hand in good condition. Large additional sup
plies are on
their way hither. The arrivals of Beasts
from our various grazing districts fresh up to this morn-
ag's market were moderate as to number, but of excel-
y.
lnt coarit_.
Notwithstanding that the weather was un-
favourable for slaughtering, the Beef trade ruled toler-
ably steady, at prices about equal to those paid on this
day gennight. The primest Scots sold at from 3s 6d to
'is 8d per albs, and at which a good clearance was
effected prior to the conclusion of business. From
Norfolk, Suffolk, Essex, and Cambridgeshire, we
received about 1,500 Scots and shorthorns; from
the western and midland counties, 700 Herefords,
Devons, Hunts, &c. ; from other parts of England
400 of various breeds; and, from Scotland 300 horned
and polled Scots. With Sheep we were seasonably
Well supplied. Prime Down qualities moved off freely
at fully, but at nothing quotable beyond, last week's
Currencies. All other kinds were in moderate request at
Bill prices. Lambs' the supply of which was good,
moved off steady at fully previous rates. The best Down
ambs sold at 6s per Blbs. The sale for calves were
heavy, at drooping currencies. The numbers were
Somewhat extensive. Pigs were a slow inquiry, but not
cheaper.

AMERICAN NEWS.

LIVERPOOL, MONDAY, 4 A.M.

The North American mail steamer America,
Captain Harrison, has just arrived, with accounts
from New York to the 16th, and from Halifax to
the 19th instant. The run from Halifax to Liver-
pool occupied only eight and a half days. In
Canada the excitement which succeeded to sign-
ing of the Rebellion Indemnity Bill by the Governor..
General of Canada, and which found vent in the de-
struction of the Houses of Parliament by incendi-
aries, as well as the burning of that official in effigy
in almost every town in the two provinces, is rapidly
subsiding, aad sober, temperate, and calm action is
taking place.
The association known as the British American
League is increasing rapidly in point of numbers,
and branches are being formed in the upper province.
Sir Allan M‘Nab has been appointed special agent
to proceed immediately to England and urge the
Home Government to disallow the Rebellion Bill
and recal Lord Elgin, as the only method by
which British dominion in Canada can be
maintained.
A slight enzeule took place at Montreal on the 9th
inst. The military were called out and restored
order. Strong detachments of troops are kept sta-
tioned about the present Parliament-house. Beyond
this slight affair no disturbance had taken place.
A serious riot had taken place in New York on the
10th, in consequence of Mr. Macready's determina-
tion to perform at the Astor House. Dense crowds
assembled round the theatre with the express deter-
mination to insult Mr. Macready.
Some persons were arrested for disorderly conduct,
and in revenge they attempted to set fire to the theatre.
The mob outside then commenced an attack on
the house, the military were called out, and 20 people
killed. The verdict of the jury was to the effect that
circumstances justified the authorities in giving the
order to fire on the mob, but that had a sufficient
number of police been called, the use of firearms
might have been avoided.
The following is a sample of a number of placards
extensively posted about New York :
" Americans! arouse: the great crisis has come. De-
cide now whether English aristocrats and foreign rule
shall triumph in this, America's metropolis, or whether
her own sons, whose fathers once compelled the base-
born miscreants to succumb, shall meanly lick the hand
that strikes, and allow themselves to be deprived of the
liberty of opinion so dear to every true American's
heart. Americans come out and dare to own yourselves
of the iron hearts of '76."

The Southern mail has arrived, bringing us New
Orleans papers to the Bth inst., which mention the
arrival of the ship Tyrone from Vera Cruz, with
accounts from San Francisco to the 7th of March.
The steam-ship California was still lying entirely
deserted by her crew, which accounts for her non-
arrival at Panama. The crew were busily engaged
in digging gold, the reports of which are fully con-
firmed. Lots in San Francisco were worth from
5,000 to 30,000 dollars.
The gold region extends into Lower California.
Late Mexican papers state that General Don P.
Garcia Conole, Commissioner to run the boundary
line on the part of Mexico, had left San Francisco
for the purpose of meeting a Commissioner from the
United States, furnished with the rations for one
year.
Venezuela accounts of the 23d of April mention
that President Monagas had resigned.

COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE.
NEW YORK, MAY 16.-The money market is quite
easy. There is little or no speculative demand fur stock.
The price of United States' Sixes maintains itself, as
well by reason of their comparative scarceness in the
market as by the recourse to them, as more favourable
remittances to England than bills of exchange at exist-
ing rates. Exchange on England is rising, notwith-
standing the considerable sum in stock recently remitted
it is now in demand at from 8 to 8/, quotations which
forbid any further importation. On Paris Fives, 26;
to 25; on Bremen, 78:4-1 to 79.
Bread Stuffs, &c.-There was no change of moment
in flour; the market was steady at the recent concession.
in prices since the steamer's news, with more doing.
The sales embrace the usual variety of brands, including
a considerable lot of low grades for export. There was
no marked change in meal or rye flour. Sales of Gen-
nessee Wheat, with a small lot of Virginia, were made
on terms stated below. Corn sold quite freely, but on
easier terms to purchasers. There was fair business in
groceries, with sales of sugar and molasses on terms
stated below. Pork was less firm, and sales made on
terms in favour of purchaser.
Cotton-The market has continued rather quiet, the
transactions being only moderate; prices, however, are
steady, not having varied during that time. The receipts
of cotton at all the shipping ports are 2,437,768 bales,
against 1,986,282 to saute date last year, an increase this
season of 451,486 bales. The total foreign exports this
year is 315,295 belts more than last ; say 338,357 bales
increase to Great Britain, 26,959 decrease to France.
22.766 increase to the North of Europe, and 18,869 de-
er, ase to other foreign ports. The shipments from southern
to northern ports are 180,747 bales more this season
than last, and there is a decrease in stock of 25,216.
The sales since our last are 3,300 bales, -as follows:-
Upland and Florida, 2,100 bales. Inferior, none. Or-
dinary to good ordinary, 6c. to Gic. Middling to good

QUEEN'S BENCH.-(THIS DAY.)
(Sittings in Banco.)

EX PARTE.—SIMPSON V. THE TOWN-CLERK OF LITCIIFIELD.
Mr. WI LIATELEY applied for a mandamus to be di-
rected to the Corporation of Litchfield, to compel them
to show cause why they should not pay Mr. Simpson an
annuity of 501. 18s. 2d. from the time of the passing of
the Municipal Corporation Act in 1835 instead of 1844.
It appeared that three of the Lords of the Treasury de-
cided that Mr. Simpson should receive an annuity of
501. 18s. 2d., as compensation for having been deprived of
the office of Town-Clerk, in accordance with the provi-
sions of the Act. The Corporation had originally
awarded the applicant an annuity of 301. He appealed
agairst the order to the Treasury, as provided by the
Act, who decided that he should receive an annuity of
501. 18s. 2d. from the 9th of September, 1835, which
they subsequently rescinded, on a communication from
the mayor, to January 9, 1844. Now it was contended
that. the Treasury had no right to alter their first order,
for if they had that power there was nothing to prevent
them from making a third :order, and that the corpora-
tion must obey the first.—Rule granted.

COMMON PLEAS.—(THIS DAY.)
,Sittings in Banco, before Lord Chief Justice WILDS,
and Justices COLTMAN, MAULE, and CRESSWELL.)
BAILEY V. WILKINS.

In this case, some time ago, a rule to show cause was
obtained, why a nonsuit should not be entered, or a
verdict for the defendant. It was an action for money
paid; the plaintiff being a gentleman on the Stock Ex-
change, and the defendant residing at Swansea. It
appeared that the defendant authorised the plaintiff to
purchase for him twenty Vale of Neath Railway shares,
at one and a-half discount. The plaintiff; accordingly,
bought twenty of those shares, at 21. discount, which
would leave 101., and he charged the defendant ls.'a share
for commission and received the money amounting to
11/. It afterwards turned out that before the purchase
by the plaintiff a deposit of 21. per share had become
due, and the plaintiff was obliged to pay that deposit,
amounting to 401. Ile then commenced his action to
recover the 401. from the defendant. The real question
at issue was, whether a person living in the country who
deals with a broker on the Stock Exchange, and who
cannot himself be cognizant of the rules of the Stock
Exchange, is bound by the laws of the Stock Exchange.
Mr. Sergeant BYLES now showed cause against the
rule, and submitted, first, that a person who employs a
broker, and authorizes him to act according to the rules
of the share market where a purchase may b emade, is
boui,d by the rules of the Stock Exchange,
na although
ud
seeutihe
principl is not cognizant of those, rules;
ru rules of the Stock
Exchange the defendant acted accordinl., tothe
Exchange he could not act otherwise.
'lhe argument was proceeding when we want to press.

BAIL COURT.—(THIS DAY.)
(Before Mr. Justice WIGHTMAN.)
QUEEN V. ANSILL AND ANOTHER.
Mr. PARRY applied for a rule calling uponlir. Bevan,
the prosecutor in this case, toishow cause why the indict-
ment should not be removtd to the Court of Queen's
Bench. The defendant Ansill, who is the proprietor of
the Satirist newspaper, with a young woman named
Mills, was committed some time ago from Bow street on
a charge of misdemeanour for writing threatening let-
ters to the prosecutor, but before the indictment was
preferred at the Central Criminal Court, a judge's order
was obtained to remove it into this court, on condition
that both Ansill and Mills put in bail for their due ap-
pearance in the Queen's Bench. Mills, however, did
not attend at the last sessions to answer the charge, and
upon its being stated that she had absconded to Boulogne
her recognizances were entreated. It was quite impos-
sible, therefore, for Acaill to comply with the condition'
