ITALY.

Accounts from Genoa of the 27th ult., state that con-
siderable fermentation existed in that city, and that
General de la Marmora was obliged to employ troops
in the suppression of an incipient agitation. A ma-
nifestation of an unfriendly nature was, according to
other accounts, made against the French Consul, and
the people extended their to all who made
use of French manufactures of any kind ; the very
name of France being, it is added, held in horror by
the unruly populace of that city.
The French Assemblee Nationale has the fol-
lowing :

" f, V e receive officially through our private correspon-
dence the complete confirmation of the treaty of peace be-
tween Piedmont and Austria. The conditions are as fol-
low The pecuniary demands of Austria have been
reduced to 75,000,000 f., 20,000,000 to be paid down,
and the remainder in annual sums of 11,000,000. (It
is believed that M. do Rothschild consents to a loan
which serves as guarantee.) Piedmont renounces all
sovereignty over, and even all claims to, the Duchies of
Parma and Placentia. Austria consents to an amnesty
in tavour of the Lombards who, having taken refuge in
Piedmont, wish to return into the Austrian possessions
of Italy, i❑ conforming themselves to the general police
regulations.' The treaty has been sent to Vienna to be
ratified. It is to be presumed that there are secret con-
ditions attached to this public treaty, and that an offen-
sive and defensive alliance has been agreed upon between
Piedmont and Austria, in which all eventualities are
provided for. It is also known that the Radical party
is actively at work in Piedmont, and there is reason to
believe that Austria has engaged to assist the King of
Sardinia in case the revolutionists should again endea-
vour to compromise the safety of the country."

RAIL WAY INTELLIGENCE.
OXFORD, WORCESTER, AND WOLVER-
HAMPTON.

The adjourned meeting of this company was held, pro
forma, yest rday, at the Loudon Tavern, to receive the
report of the committee of investigation, Mr. Rufford,
M.P., in the chair. The advertisement convening thu
meeting having been read,

The CHAIRMAN stated that, in consequence of the com-
mittee W.' inquiry not being prepared with their report,
and certain negotiations at present going on, the meeting
would be adjourned to tho 31st of August, at which
timo the half-yearly meeting of the company would also
be held, for the convenience of the shireholdors, on the
same dog•.

A resolution to that effect was then passed, and the
meeting separated.

ST. HELEN'S CANAL AND RAILWAY.
The annual meeting of this company was held on
Tuesday, at Liverpool, Mr. Gilbert Greenall, .M.P., in
the chair.

The report of the directors congratulated the share-
holders on the result of the truffle on the canal and rail-
way during the past half-year, the increase in the re-
ceipts over the same period in the previous year beirg
2,1691., while the working expenses have decreased 1851.
The accumulated surplus fund was now 9,5131. The
directors had let the contract for the Blackbrook
branch much below the original estimate, and the
contractors had led them to expect its comple-
tion early in October. The management had undertaken
the reduction of the Widnes inclined plane, as well as
the formation of a branch to the Royal Colliery and the
Ravenhead plate-glass works, together with a short ex-
tension of the line into the town of St. Helen's. Exten-
sive progress had been made in the execution of all these
works. The report concluded:—
" The directors find it necessary to announce their in-
tention of making a further call on the 6 per cent. shares.
Tho paid up capital, being now about the amount at
which the burrowing powers can be exercised, the di-
rectors propose to avail themselves of the same. It will
then be competent for the directors to carry the present
surplus fund rateably to the credit of each shareholder
as a loan, ing interest at 5 per cent."
The CHAIRMAN moved the adoption of the report.
The statement of the capital account showed that the
total amount paid up was 412,9571., whilst the balance
applicable to loans and dividends was 8,5361. He
thought they had every reason to be satisfied, as this re-
pro seated an earning upon the total capital of rather
more than 4 per cent. per annum.

Mr. C. HOLLAND seconded the motion, and reviewed
at length the financial prospects of the company. The
Blackbrook extension he stated, from which they might
naturally expect so great an increase of traffic, would
not cost in construction more than 13,0001.
The motion was unanimously carried.
Mr. W. C. FOs.BERRY moved a resolution empowering
the directors, so soon as one-half of the capital of the
company should be raised, to borrow such a sum as they
might deem expedient.
This resolution was seconded, and carried nem con.

Mr. C. HOLLAND moved—
" That a dividend of 31. per share upon the old shares
of 11. 10s. upon the half-shares, and of 34 per share upon
the preference shares (in addition to the guaranteed
dividend of 5 per cent. secured to the latter), should be
paid. The dividends if unpaid after September next, to
bear interest et the rate of 5 per cent."
This was unanimously carried.

The five retiring din:eters were re-elected. Thanks
were voted to the auditors, and also to the directors and
secretary; after which the meeting broke up.

CORK AND BANDON.—The first section of this lino
was opened fbr public traffic yesterda), from Bandon to
Ballinhassig, a distance of 94 miles. The remaining
distance (9 miles) from Balliuhassig to Cork is per-
formed by cmuibuses. The fares for the whole distance
between Curk and Bandon-18i miles—are, first class,
35.; second class, 25.; and third class, Is. 4d.; and for re-
turn tickets, 55., 35., and 2s. respectively.
NORTHERN AND SOUTHERN CONNECTING.—The Mas-
ter has appointed Mr. Goodchap, accountant, official
manager to wind up the affairs of this defunct scheme.
A sum of 33,6501. was received by the projectors and
provisional committee in the shape of deposits of
21. 12s Gd. on 12,725 shares. Of this 15,5351. was lodged
with the Accountant. General, but subsequently with-
drawn and distributed in the form of a 10s. return among
the contributors. The remainder was expended on plans,
surveys, engineers, and solicitors, the bills of the latter
amounting to 7,0001. There are una,certained assets
said to be at different bankers, but insufficient in amount
to liquidate still outstanding liabilities, the exact amount
of which it is the object of the present inquiry to dis-
cover and defray. There are Chancery suits also
amongst the directors to be settled.

STATE OF TRADE.
(From the Manchester Guardian.)
Partly through the impression which the eastern
advises have produced, and partly in consequence of
the continued tendency to a rather higher value in
• cotton, spinners and manufacturers have maintained a
) firmer tone in this day's market than the state of
things at the close of last week had led most parties
• to expect.
In yarns the continental houses have purchased
hesitatingly, and to a very limited extent ; apparently
not venturing to do more at the required rates than
make up assortments. The India merchants have
been inquiring for 50's and higher numbers of mule
twist, which were in improved demand, with a slight
tendency to better prices in the Calcutta market; and,
although the counts below 40's were rather lower in
that market, sales have been practicable to-day at a
trifling concession from the current terms. Spinnings
for home manufacture continue in fair request at last
week's prices. On the whole, the demand must be
reported as by no means considerable, yet pretty
general in its character,while prices are well sustained.
An enhanced demand for goods having arisen at
Calcutta, after the departure of the previous mail,
the makers of such fabrics have taken a firmer stand
upon their quotations than perhaps would otherwise
have been the case. The buyers, however, have al-
most entirely abstained from doing business, alleging
that shipments at present prices would involve
a loss upon most articles. In jaconots, mada-
pollams, and 45-inch shirtings, there is no,
change. The 'ghter 40-inch shirtings are neglected
but 64 and 72 gds continue in request for China,
and are very sea 2e. Printing cloths are quite steady,
though hardly so lively as they were. The rise in
34 and 36-inch cloth is fully maintained. A little
more is doing in longcloths and T cloths, at a trifling
increase of price. Stout domestics for home consump-
tion are still neglected.
Letters from Constantinople and Tabriz report the
depression in those markets as being still very great.
ROCHDALE, MONDAY, JULY 30.—There has been
a rather brisk demand for goods of a low and middling
quality, while the finer kinds of flannel have not been
so much inquired after. There continues much in-
activity in the wool market, but prices have still an
upward tendency.
MACCLESFIELD, TUESDAY, JULY 21.—The pur-
chases of China raw silk made early in the last
month have found their way into the throwing mills,
and now sustain and slightly increase the scanty em-
ployment referred to last week. The impulse to pur-
chasers here referred to came from the active demand
for fine raw silks at Lyons and other continental seats
Iconsiderablean
s spe orirtt ihoenr
eolfs
stth
ye e
asrt ofcokr
security
of manufacture,. which led to the withdrawal of a
fcuFrirteyncdhurainngd
the disturbances, and on which temporary advances
were in some instances obtained by the owners. The
China silk is used in the manufacture of the ordinary
class of goods made in the country ; the finer French
and Italian raw silks in the finer fabrics abroad ; and
this return of the fine material indicates very distinctly
the relative progress of the continental silk manufac-
turer of the higher order of goods. The weavers
who had last week turned out have resumed work,
having got the price fixed by a local board of
twelve masters and twelve operatives, which
took four months to complete. The object
of the board being formed was to settle all dis-
putes between masters and men ; but it has not
altogether met the expectations of the masters, as to
the concurrence of the manufacturers of other towns.
Without that concurrence the Macclesfield manufac-
turers cannot compete with their rivals in the
market ; and they are now sending an enormous
quantity of work out of the town. One large manu-
facturer here and in Congleton has, within the last
six weeks or two months, sent upwards of 80 looms to
Middleton. The power-loom department is very
slack ; but the dyehouses are lull of work.
1 lUDDERSFIELD, TUESDAY, JULY 31.—A brisk
business has been done to-day in every description of
goods adapted for the present trade. Early in the day
every piece of first quality of doeskins was bought up,
The stocks are exceedingly low, and buyers find it
difficult to complete their orders.
HALIFAX, SATURDAY, JULY 28.—The trade in
our Piece-hall remains pretty much the same as re-
ported in our last. The demand for yarns continues
good. The spinners are fully employed, and are
asking rather higher prices. There is scarcely so
much doing in wool. The spinners are pretty well
stocked, and the turn of the market is in favour of
the buyer.

THE HUNGARIAN EXILES. CONCERT. -- Public
sympathy in this country has never been more actively
and more generally excited than on the subject of
Hungarian independence. The gallant struggle now
making by that heroic people has won the admiration
of all classes, and in addition to the meetings which
are almost nightly held in various parts of the metro-
polis, expressive of public feeling on the subject, a
concert was given on Monday night at the Literary
and Scientific Institution, John-street, Fitzroy-square,
in aid of the fund now raising on behalf of the un-
fortunate Hungarian refugees at Folkestone. The
folowing ladies and gentlemen, it was stated, " gene-
"
rously gave their valuable services on the occasion,
namely—Miss Norman, Miss Leslie, and Mrs. Jen-
nings; Mr. J. D. Collet, Master Frank Bonner, Mr. B.

TUE SHIPPING TRADE IN HULL.—The influx of
ships into Hull, noticed in our.last, has been succeeded
by a great number of Baltic and American traders this
week, and the docks and quays now appear as if trade
were in a most flourishing condition. _Labourers,
who until the past few days. were seen loitering
about the docks in vain asking for work, are
now nearly all in active employment ; and the
staff of tide-waiters and other Customs' officers,
whose frequent journeying to the Custom-house and
water-side indicated a lack of business, are now stationed
on board vessels and filling other posts; and to meet the
exigency, several extra tide-waiters have, we under-
stand, been called into requisition. On onday about
50 sail, most of them British ships, were reported at the
Custom-house from foreign ports, and on the following
theys a proportionate number. Their cargoes were of a
general description. Many from the Baltic are loaded
with wood, grain, iron, seed, &c.; and those from the
near North Sea ports aro chiefly grain laden; and those
from Canada—from which country some heavy ships
have come to hand—with timber and deals. The ports
of Goole and Gainsborough have also felt the benefit of
rather large arrivals from abroad. For the former place
many grain- laden vessels from France, Belgium, and the
Baltic have passed this port; while to Gainsborough

especially as the blockaded ports are likely to be opened
for commerce on an early day. Every Sound List, too,
which we continue to receive from Elsinore announces a
large number of vessels from Hull and other ports in the
Humber, as well as for various parts of the United
Kingdom.—Hull Advertiser.

[ADVERTISEMENT ]_A certified Cure of Scr9fula
by Holloway's Ointment and Pills.—The following certificate
wa
from Mr- Alcorn, of Jerry's Plains, New South
forwarded to Professor Holloway by Mr. Pinkey, chemist, of
the same place. " This is to certify that my daughter, aged
seven years, Was afflicted with scrofula for three years, and that,
after she had been attended by several respectable practitioners,
without success, I was induced to try Holloway's Ointment
and Pills, which remedies in about three months completely
cured her, and she is now in the best of health. This can be
verified by various persons in this vicinity, where I have resided
for twenty-two years. (Signed) R. Alcorn.. Jan. 1, 1849."
