ITALY.

Intelligence has been received from Rome of the
9th. The Triumvirs had, it was said, given orders
to destroy all houses within a mile of the walls of
the city. MARTINEZ DE LA. ROSA, the Spanish
Minister at Gaeta, had called on all Spanish residents
in Rome to quit the city. The Neapolitans and
Spaniards were preparing to enter the Roman
territory.
The Assembly of Venice passed a decree on the
6th, declaring their resolution to resist to the last
extremity.
A private letter from Bologna, of the 10th, states
that the Austrians attacked Ancona on all sides on
the 9th, at four r.az., but without result. On the
10th the Austrians received from Ferrara six pieces
of heavy artillery and six mortars, so that another
attack was expected on the 11th or 12th. On the
sth the Austrians attacked Brondolo and Chioggio by
sea and by land, but without result.
The Risorgimento of Turin states that Marshal
RADETSKY arrived at Bologna on the 10th, on his
return from Florence ; he was to leave for Venice on
the day following.

GREECE.
Accounts have been received from Athens to the
Bth. Mr. WYSE arrived in that city on the 6th.

CHANCERY.—(THIS DAY.)
This was the first seal after Trinity Term, but con-
tinued indisposition prevented the Lord Chancellor from
sitting. The report is general in Lincoln's Inn that his
Lordship is worse, and that there is not the slightest
probability of his sitting till Michaelmas Term, if he
even does then. It also rumoured that the Government
have postively determined not to put the Great Seal
into commission.

the Rolls House, Chancery-lane, it being the first seal
after Trinity Term. His Lordship heard motions, but
(
no case calling for a special report came before the Court
during the morning.
All the Vice-Chancellors sat in their court in Lin-
coins Inn to-day, and heard motions totally devoid of
any interest.

THE QUEEN'S ACCESSION.—This being the anni-
versary of her Majesty's accession to the throne, was
observed with all the usual formalities. Flags were
flying from all the churches and public buildings in
the metropolis, and at one o'clock royal salutes were
fired from the Park and Tower guns.
REPORTED Loss OF THE BULLDOG.—A report
reached Malta on the 11th inst. of the loss of the
steam-frigate Bulldog, en route from Civita Vecchia
to Leghorn. Though the rumour was not generally
believed, it was not altogether discredtted.—Fronz a

MONEY and COMMERCIAL STEWS.
CITY, QUARTER TO THREE.

There was a steady but quiet market fir Cotton at
Liverpool yesterday. The sales were estimbted at 6,000
bales, including from 1,000 to 2,000 for export and on
speculation. Prices were steadily supported.
The Mincing•lane Markets for colonial and foreign
produce arc tolerably firm, and there is a good bona fide
business doing.

The Corn Market is quiet, but Wheat is very firmly
supported.
The debates upon Canadian affairs have excited much
attention in the City, and will, no doubt, lead to much
discussion in the colonies.

Several vessels are reported as having arrived from
the Cape of Good Hope, and the latest date is April 26.
Most glowing descriptions are given of the position of
Natal, and the capabilities of its harbour, and Captain
Pilkington, civil engineer, had reported that he could
remove the bar at the entrance of the Cowie River, and
render the navigation available for some distance to-
wards the source, at a moderate cost, for ships of 250
tons. There was a most satisfactory state of quietude
on the frontier, not a single Kafir theft being reported
during a whole month, but at Natal some Bushmen took
advantage of a mist, to carry away some quantity of
cattle. There was every probability of this being re-
covered.

Throughout the Cape colony the strongest opposition
is manifested to the project of introducing convicts. al-
though labour would, confessedly, be so acceptable.
Even the non•op'icial members of the Governor's Council
had protested against the scheme.
The continental advices are rather scanty in reference
to the money markets, but at Vienna there was more
firmness, the interference of the Russians promising
early success to the Austriau Government, as we indeed
truly regret to hear.

In the Amsterdam market on the 18th instant, there
was more firmness in home securities, which were
moderately dealt in, but home stocks were quiet.
There seems to be rather a fuller supply of stock,
the advanced prices having brought sellers forward fur
both money and account. Consuls fur time have been
9141 to 911 8, and aro now 94 1. It is still the un-
favourable anticipations of the Budget, that weighs
upon the market. The New Three-and-a-Quarter per
Cents. have been 94 to 92k, and the Three per Cents.
91 to 94. Bank Stock is firm at 194. Exchequer-bills
have been 425. to 455. prem.; and India Bonds 725. prem.
In the Foreign Market the transactions have been
rather limited. Mexican Bonds have been 28 to 28i ex.
coupons. Equador are 3i-, and Buenos Ayres 402.
Braztlian small have been 782. Portuguese Four per
Cents, have been quoted 27k, and Spanish Three per
Cents. 331. to 34. Dutch Two-and-a-Half per Cents.
are 501 to 51, and Belgian Four-and-a-Half per Cents.
791.
Not much has been doing in Railway Shares. Eastern
Counties are a little flatter; the turn Is in favour of
buyers for Caledonian, Great Western, Midland, and the
York lines. French shares also have slightly declined.

MARKET NEWS.-(THIS DAY.)

CORN-EXCHANGE—WEDNESDAY
Our market to-day, was again very scantily supplied
with all kinds of English Wheat,:the demand for which
was firm, at prices fully equal to those paid on Monday,
and at which a good clearance was speedily effected.
The general quality of the samples was good.
The imports of foreign Wheat, this week, have been
confined to 1,800 quarters, chiefly from Holland. Se-
lected samples were mostly held at a trifle more money;
and the value of all other kinds were well supported.
With English Barley we were very scantily supplied,
and the quantity of foreign on show was comparatively
small. On the whole, the Barley trade was steady, and
last week's currencies were paid in every instance. The
quantity of Malt on offer was limited; nevertheless, the
sale for that description of produce was in a sluggish state
at previous quotations. The best Oats were quite as
dear; but all other kinds ruled heavy. Flour moved off
freely, at full prices. In other articles only a limited
business was doing.
