ITALY.

An additional body of Spanish troops has arrived in
the Roman states. The total number of Spanish
troops in these states is now 8,009. Their head-
quarters are at Velletri. They have sent a detach-
ment against GARIBALDI.

The following is the dispatch addressed by Prince
SCHWARTZENBURG to the Chevalier DE BRUCK, the
Austrian Minister at Turin, and by him transmitted
to the Sardinian Government :
" TO THE CHEVALIER DE BRUCK.

" Vienna, 13th July.
" The Council of the Empire baying, after mature de-
liberation, come to the determination that the terms of
the treaty of peace with Sardinia, as laid down in your
recent dispatches, touch the extreme limit of possible
concession, you are hereby authorised to notify to the
Government of Sardinia that, if they do not accept those
terms within four days, you are instructed to quit Turin.
(Signed) SCHWARTMENBERG."
The new Municipality of Rome has published the
following proclamation:—
" ROMANS i—Having been chosen by the General
Commander-in-Chief of the French army to assume the
direction and administration of your commune, we have
thought it right to prefer the urgent interest of public
affairs to every personal consideration. We have con-
sented to direct for a time the affairs of the commune as
far as in our power ; we will spare no study or troub'e
to saisfy your present wants, and prepare for those who
will succeed us a speedier way to better your condition.
But to gain in such difficult circumstances this only
object of our desires, we require the active assistance of
all good citizens, the sincere co-operation of all classes of
society. We trust it will not fail us. The restoration of order
and of the temporal authority of the Supreme Pontiff in
the Roman States has powerfully moved the whole of the
Catholic world. Rome cannot be indifferent to an event
which it is called to participate in from sentiments of
gratitude and reason, and from the fatal recollection of
past days which cannot be remembered without sorrow.
You will obey the call of the authority that governs us,
and prove by your acts your thankfulness towards that
generous nation, that has offered itself to you as your
friend, and assures you this day that your confidence
shall not be deluded.

" From the Capitol, July 15.
"PRINCE ODESCALCHT, President.

The Statuto of Florence of the 18th states that a se-
vere inquiry is carried on at Naples respecting the
insurrection of the 15th of May, 1848, and that seven
Deputies have been arrested. It is said the object of
the conspirators was to kill the KING. A funeral
service having been celebrated at Ferrara, in honour
of the Romans who had fallen in defence of Rome,
the Austrians arrested the priests and several other
persons. The following notification has been pub-
lished there :

" Pontifical Government—The University of this town
being closed de facto during the present scholastic year,
his Excellency General Gorzgowski, civil and military
Governor of the four legations, directs that the students
who are not natives of this town, or settled in it, shall
have two days' time from to•day to return to their
homes; in case of non-compliance, they will be taken
there by force.—Ferrara, July 13.

SHERIFFS' COURT.—(THIS DAY
(Before Mr. Under-Sheriff BURCEIELL.)
ABLETT V. GILLINGHAM.

The plaintiff in this action is an attorney in New-
castle-street, Strand,and defendant is a veterinary surgeon
in Church-street, Chelsea. The amount claimed was
151. 63 , the balance of a bill of costs.
Defendant pleaded that he was not indebted.
The plaintiff called witnesses to prove that the work
done was in carrying bankrupt through the Bankruptcy
Court, and that the charges were fair and reasonable.
After the evidence had been partially gone into, a
clerk to defendant's attorney said that counsel bad been
engaged, but could not possibly attend for two hours,
and he therefore hoped the case would be allowed to
stand over.
Mr. ABLETT said he could not consent to this.
The UNDER•SHERIFF said that he could not stop the
case, but the clerk might cross• examine the witnesses.
Mr. ABLETT said he must protest against this on the
part of the profession and the public, as the party was
not even a clerk to the attorney.
Mr. Spicer, the clerk, said he had been so for three
years.
The UNDER-SHERIFF said that under such circum •
stances he should allow the cross-examination to take
place.
'The evidence was proceeded with, and a process-server
swore that defendant promised to pay the amount.
Mr. SPICER then addressed the jury, and alleged that
the defendant had first been introduced to a person
named Howard, to pass him through the Insolvent Court,
but after Howard had been paid 251., he said that the
defendant had better sue out a fiat in Bankruptcy, and
Howard said he was not a certificated attorney, and re-
commended plaintiff to become bankrupt, and the pro-
ceedings were conducted by Howard as clerk to Ablett.
Mr. ABLETT said there was no plea of payment either
to himself or any person on his behalf ; therefore, as he
had proved his retainer, and that the charges were fair
and reasonable, he was entitled to a verdict even without
a proof of a promise to pay.
The UNDER SHERIFF concurred, and the jury gave
verdict for the plaintiff:

PEDESTRIANISM.
C. WESTHALL'S 14 MILE MATCH TOR 100/. TO 501.
—The accomplishment of 14 miles in two hours, fair
walking, is an exploit which, until Monday last, was
certainly considered by most people as physically im-
practicable. Curiosity accordingly attracted large num-
bers to the inclosed grounds of Flora Gardens, Bays-
water, to witness the attempt. The ground was in a
favourable state and the day cool, with occasional
showers. At six o'clock Westhall appeared in racing
gear, looking rather lighter, but as hard and as well as
we ever remember to have seen him. The circumference
of the roped space is 224 yards, and this, walked over
110 times, gives 24,640 yards, equal to 14 miles. The
accomplished pedestrian started at a rattling pace, and
needs a man must, aye and keep to it too, before he can
hope to keep Old Time by the forelock in such an
arduous labour. The first mile was accomplished in 7
min. 53 sec., the second and intervening miles up to the
6th scarcely varying in' the time of their completion,
except when Westhall took a little refreshment as he
progressed. He showed little or no distress 'until the
twelfth or thirteenth miles, when he flushed occasionally,
and appeared to labour, although his pace was but little
deteriorated, as will be evident from the fact that he
completed the fourteenth mile, amid general cheering,
iu the unprecedented time of one hour fifty-nine minutes
and eighteen seconds, having thus forty-two seconds
in hand.

SHOCKING GIG ACClDENT.—Yesterday afternoon,
as Andrew Malcolm, Esq., of Haverstock-hill, Hamp-
stead, was driving his horse and gig in the Vauxhall-
bridge-road, when near Regent-street, somo lad's kite
flying startled the horse, and Mr. Malcom lost all control
over the animal, which started off at a furious pace in
the direction for Pimlico; in its rapid career several
persons crossing were knocked down, and more or less
•
o it• 'ured Near the Roy al Standard the vehicle came into
collision with a heavy-laden coal waggon, by which Mr.
Malcolm was thrown out, fracturing his skull, and sus-
taining other injuries. No hopes are entertained of his
surviving.
By the promotion of Mr. Sergeant Thomas Noon
Talfourd to the bench, the office of the Queen's Ancient
Sergeant becomes vocaut.

MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS.

CITY, QUARTER TO THREE.
There was a steady market for Cotton at Liverpool
yesterday. The sales were estimated at 8,000 bales,
including 1,500 American on speculation. The transac-
tions consisted of 6,500 American. at 40, to 6i el ; 250
Pernam and Maranham, at 58d. to sid.; 150 Egyptian,
at 51d. to 7d.; and 400 Surat, at 31d. to 4d. par lh.—ln
Railway Shares very little business was done, and prices
were much the same as yesterday,
The quantity of wheat sold last week in the provincial
markets, which regulate the duties, was 75,705 quarters,
and the six weeks' average price is 465. 4i. per quarter.
The Continental advices received to-day are satisfac-
tory generally in regard to the state of the money,
markets. At Amsterdam the Dutch Funds main-
tained fully previous rates, the Two. and-a-
Half per Cents. being 51 5-16. Spanish were
a shade lower. At Frankfort, on the 23d instant, Aus-
trian Stock was quoted 76i, and at Vienna on the 21st
of July, 934.
We regret to learn by the accounts from Holland that
the cholera there has been very intense and fatal in the
province of Utrecht, but from Brussels we are advised
h at it is rapidly subsiding.
It is stated in the City to-day, and upon what is said
to be very good authority, that the Sardinian question
is certain to be amicably arranged, and that England,
France, and Austria have a perfect understanding in the
matter. We may be permitted to hope, nevertheless,
that this understanding is not in favour of harsh terms.
The following are interesting particulars connected
with the important trade that is springing up between
Canada and the ports of the far west, as contained in a
local journal:—
"We mentioned in our last the arrival of some
schooners loaded with western produce, and we have
since collected some information relative to their voyages,
which may be of interest to our mercantile readers at a
distance. The Western is loaded with 4,100 bushels of
Indian corn, 222 barrels of lard, and thirty-five barrels
of pork. The Moses and Elias has brobght 5,625
bushels of Indian corn, and four bales of Tenessce cotton.
Both vessels are from Toledo, and are to be followed by
the Mirando, which vessel will probably reach this city
to-morrow, with 10,000 bushels of Indian corn.
The Western and Moses and Elias have
made the voyage from Toledo in ten and a
half and eleven days. The deepest of them
draws eight feet water, and neither have touched any-
where throughout the navigation. Both vessels are
chartered to return to Toledo with cargoes of salt, which
will be put on board them alongside from a vessel now
in port from St. Übes, at a freight of 8 cents per 80 lhs,
equal to something less than 2i dollars per ton.
" The Sophia Car, a Canadian schooner, also arrived
yesterday, from a similar voyage, with Indian corn meal,
and flour in bond, and proceeded immediately for
Quebec, where the American vessels cannot go at
present, owing to the operation of the navigation
laws. She is also chartered for a return
voyage with pig iron, which she is to deliver at
Chicago for 4 dollars 50 cents per ton. It may
be worthy of notice that this freight, for the voy-
age to Chicago, is agreed for at 25 cents per
ton lower than the rate paid recently for a
cargo of railway iron shipped at Quebec for Cleveland,
although the latter parties are some hundreds of miles
nearer than the former.
" The four bales of Cotton, which have come down in
the Moses and Elias, have been sent as an
experiment of the advantages of route when com-
pared with that by New York. They are intended
for the Sherbrooke factory. We believe there can be
no doubt that the rates of upward freight here given,
are so low as to place the St. Laurence route out of
all danger of competition. We have conversed with
the captains of the American schooners, and
they agree in their praises of the accommodation of the
port, and the facilities of the voyage. Both of them
assured us that nothing could prevent a very extensive
trade on the St. Lawrence, with the American Lake
Ports."
The trade of Canada needs " a lift," and we are glad
to see that there is every prospect of a new source being
opened.
The railway half-yearly meetings are now in full
career, and we are glad to discover evidences of
a sounder administration, and a determination to
await the gradual development of resources. The
Brighton meeting may certainly be held to have
been satisfactory, and the prospects are encouraging.
The North Stafford report intimates that the line is
complete, except the sidings, stations, &e., to accommo-
date the mineral and general traffic, which will give, no
doubt, an important addition. The canal receipts yield
an excellent surplus, adequate indeed to the payment of
all the interest on the debentures, and 3s. per share of bona
fide dividend earned upon a very partial and imp3rfect
working, will be paid after the meeting. The whole
undertaking has been completed within the estimate, a
I most rare occurrence, and no further calls will be needed.
The intended working by contract is an important and
interesting feature.
We have received this morning the East Lancashire
statement. This again must be considered favourable
by all who desire the gradual development of railway
resources, and not an appearance of fictitious prosperity.
The expenditure on the line has been rather
under three millions, and the balance of profit for the
half-year ending the 30th June last is 36,7851. The
cost of the traffic per mile has been 5-58 d., whereas
in the six months to June, 1848, it was 7-11 d.,
and this affords an increase in the net profit
per mile from 191. Is. 9d. to 231. 2s. 9d.; so much for
economical working. The total working expenses are
now about 39i per cent., whereas in 1848 they exceeded
45} per cent. Wo have no doubt other lines can do the
same upon a little gentle pressure from the shareholders.
When we look at these results, disappointing as the
eight and ten per cent. expect ants may consider them,
though we despair of neither figures in the course
of a few years, and looking to the c aistant increase
of population, we regret more than ever the
immense amount literally wasted in foreign under-
takings. We have ever protested against them. Let
us look, for example, to the miserable plight in which
the subscribers to some of the Belgian lines have been
placed. Take the Sambre and Meuse meeting of yes-
terday, and see the price of the shares, not much
more than one-seventh of the amount paid. It wants
very little to convince us of the immensely increased
loss the country would have sustained, if home under-
takings had not afforded an extensive opening for surplus
capital.
The English Funds continued rather heavy, and
there have been sales of money stock, Consols
ranging from 92i to 928 for Transfer, and from
924 to 93 for account, and the quotations
at the time of our present writing being 924 8 for Money,
and 928 to 93 fi,r Account. The New Three- and-a-
Quarter per Cents. are 93i Bank Stock is firm at
1981. Exchequer-bills have been 475. to 50s. premium.
In the Foreign Market the bargains have been ex-
tremely limited. Spanish Five per Cents. are 18 to 41;
Portuguese Four per Cents., 30 to 31; and Dutch Two-
and-a-Half per Cents., 511 I. Mexican are nominally
about 26-1-1, to 27.
There is some heaviness again in Railway Shares.
Eastern Counties have declined upon the Norfolk Amal-
gamation Bill being thrown out. The great lines are
mostly at previous rates, but heavy. North Stafford are
rather lower, and Midland, after improving, have re-
ceded a shade. The French shares aro slightly in favour
of buyers.

Mr. HUME called the attention of the House to el
cumstances connected with the public expenditure o;,'
harbours of refuge. Some years ago a discussion tin
place on the same subject, and it was then understol
that all Bills affecting the navigation of rivers shottl,,
be examined and approved of by the Board of Admiral'',
before they were introduced into that House. Suite
quently a Commission was appointed to inquire into iio

state of harbours of refuge, when it was found that the
Board of Admiralty had been so overwhelmed with btls;
,„."..
ness, that it could not attend to this branch of its clueil
and the consequence had been that several Bills. PI,
been passed which had proved highly injurious to 0O
of our harbours.
