The following address to the Romans is at present
widely circulated in Rome :
" ROMAN REPUBLIC.
" In the name of God and the People.
" Romans,—Brutal force has overcome your city, but
it has not changed or vanquished your rights. The
Roman Republic lives eternal and inviolable in the
suffrages of the free who proclaimed it, and in the spon-
taneous adhesion of the elements of the state—in the
faith of the people who have prolonged our defence, and
in the blood of the martyrs who fell for it under your
walls. Oar invaders have betrayed all their promises,
God will betray them. Remain constant and firm in the
faith during the short trial to which you are now ex-
posed,tion and despair

people who hope, fight, and suffer for the cause of justice
and for that of true liberty.
"You have given many proofs of military daring—
give now proofs of civil courage.
By all that is sacred with you, citizens, do not yield
either to base fear or stupid egotism. Make visible to
the world the separation that exists between you and

will not permit Rome to become the conquest of France
or
character of a conquest. Isolate the enemy, and Europe
will raise its powerful voice for you.
"No one can prevent the peaceable expression of your
wishes. Let the public voice be constantly heard and
understood.

" Let the Municipality mike it known that it adhered
voluntary to the republican form of government and the
abolition of the temporal government of the Pope, and
that it will consider every government to be illegal that
dues not emanate directly from the people. From
every district, from every provincial town, let lists ap
pear of thousands of names who attest the same faith
and invoke the same rights. In the streets, in the
theatre, in every suitable place, let the cry be beard,
Away with the government of the priests,' Freedom
of vote,' and after that sole cry let there be silence. On
the display of the Pontifical arms let those who swore
to the Republic retire from office. Fear not, they can-
not imprison thousands, they cannot compel a whole
people to disgrace themselves, and disgraced you will be,
O Rumans, if, after once having proclaimed to all Europe
your determination to be free, and fought and lost tho
best blood amongst you to be so, you should now descend
to the eJndition of slaves, or associate with jour he-
trayers.
6, Your fathers, Romans, were great—not because they
knew how to conquer, but that when beaten they did
not despair. _ _

" In the name of God and the people be great, as your
fathers were. This day, as men, you have a world—an
Italian world—in your custrdy.
" Your National Assembly is not dissolved—it is only
separated. Your Triumvirs, compelled by the force of
circumstances to suspend their public action, still watch
over your affairs, and will direct your conduct when the
opportune moment arrives.
For the Triumvirate,

STATE OF TRADE.
(From the Manchester Guardian of this day.)
MANCUESTER, AUG. 7.—Our market has exhibited
greater firmness and a more cheerful tone to-day than
might have been anticipated towards the close of last
week. Sellers have not only stood firmly upon their
previous quotations, but have shown a disposition
slightly to raise them in some things. The fact is that
the contracts still held for many articles are so ample,
and the existirg stocks of others are generally so mode-
rate, as greatly to sustaia the resolution of producers
whenever appearances become rather unfavourable, and
naturally to render them susceptible of any exciting
causes. Same degree of stimulus has been supplied by
the Niagara's accounts of a probably bukward crop of
cotton, as a result of bad weather, and of higher prices
by ie. to te. per lb. having been obtained in the States,
though this was in a great degree occasioned by advices
of the upward tendency of the Liverpool market.
For yarns we have had a demand of a pretty general
kind, yet cf a very limited extent. In goods, the inquiry
for printers has rather increased, and prices are inclined
to harden. 34 and 36-inch cloths go off at steady rates.
The lower 40-inch shirtings are dull, 64 and 72 reeds
being in a comparatively better position. Low jacconets
are little inquired after. Madapollams are steady, but
quiet. There is very little doing in T's and long cloths,
and scarcely any noticeable increase in the purchase of
stout domestics. The highly encouraging reports of the
growing crops are, however, opening a better prospect
for our home trade.
Advises from Tabriz represent the Persian trade as
being more than ever depressed; and those from Con•
stautinople state that, as yet, no sensible improvement
tins taken place in that market.
ltovno.s.LE, AUG. 6.—We have had a brisk demand
,14nnels to-day, at previous prices, and most of the

pi€ces were cleared out early in the day. Notwith-
standing the workmen are in full employ, and the mmu-
facturers with very slender stocks on hand, the wool
dealers complain of the very limited demand there is for
the raw material. It is well known that some of the
large manufacturers laid in very heavy stocks when wool
v;asat it, lowest point.

MACCLESFIELD, AuG. 7.—The throwing department
of the silk trade is now in a more healthy state than it
has been for some length-of time. When the " commis-
sion throwsters" are busy (which is the case at the pre-
sent time), it may be considered that the manufacturers,
who chiefly employ them, are at least preparing against
a coming demand. As yet, however, the inquiry for au-
tumn manufactured goods continues slack, and at prices
which preclude any large amount of business being done.
Hundreds of weavers are idle; whilst a large number of
country weavers come to town for work, which they take
at cheaper rates tha❑ the list of prices recently made by
the local board, alluded to in our last report, to com-
plete which cost upwards of 1,0001., raised by levies
upon the weavers. The last improvement made in
throwing machinery is now very extensively shipped for
Italy.

HUDDERSFIELD, AUG. 7.—Scarcely so much has been
doing as last week, which is partly owing to consider-
able quantities having been purchased on speculation, in
consequence of the advance in wool. Every description
of cloth commands higher price.
HALIFAX, AUG. 4.—Although the amount of business
transacted in our Piece Hall to-day has not been so
large as it has been for several weeks past, yet there is
a fair amount doing, both in plain and fancy goods, to
order, and iu the warehouses, and the quotations are
fully sustained. In yarns, the business continues good.
The spinners are full of orders, and prices remain with-
out alteration. There is a moderate trade doing in wool.
The market is well supplied, and the sales that are
effected are upon rather easier terms. In short wools
there is very little doing, and prices are stationary.
LEEDS, Aca. 7.—We have nothing to report to-day.
The brisk demand for goods still continues. The
clothiers being fully employed, and there being a steady
business doing in the warehouses, prices are firm and
stocks light.
