ITALY.

The Piedmontese Gazette publishes a law, of the
29th ult., allowing a further subsidy of 100,0001. fur
the assistance of Italian refugees.
The Legge of Turin states from Rome, 6th inst.,
that apartments are actively preparing in the Varican,
which induces the public to suppose that the Pope \via
soon return. It is believed, however, that the Pao]
Court opposes his return until the French shall have
retired from the capital. On the 6th the triumvirate of
Cardinals paid a visit to General Cordova. The
Risorgimento of Turin states that the Pope is expected
to return, not to Rome, but to Velletri, about the
15th. The workmen of the public works commenced
by General Oudinot, according to this correspon-
dence, have revolted, because the Papal Govern-
ment has dismissed all the overseers named by
General Oudinot, who mostly belonged to
the dissolved corps of Roman engineers. Captain
Bonfilien, chief of the Commission of Works, being
addressed by the workmen on the subject, has advised
them to apply to the Cardinals. A letter of the s:h,
quoted by the same journal, states that Monsignor
Savelli had given in his resignation, which had not been
accepted. The reason of this step on his part was a
letter he had written to M. de Corcelles complaining
of the number of traitors who were still allowed to
remain undisturbed at Rome, and declaring such
tolerance was a shame to the French army. M. de
Corcelles had sent an answer, demanding satisfaction
for this expression ; and the Holy Father being
apprised of the matter, disapproved of Monsignor
Savelli's conduct.
By a decree of the Duke of Parma, the governors
and commissioners of territorial districts are autho-
rised to suspend fairs, markets, and extraordinary
solemnities in churches, whenever they may think it
conducive to public order.
The Nazionale of Florence of the 7th gives an
account of Captain Pakenham's farewell visit to the
children of the elementary school founded by him
at Fornoli, Lucca, and maintained at his expense.
It will be remembered that Captain Pakenham
has been ordered by the Tuscan Government to
leave the country. Captain Pakenham, after re-
minding the children of the especial protection
held out to them by our Saviour, when he said :
—" Let little children come unto me, for of such

is the kingdom of Heaven ! " concluded as follows :
" Be faithful subjects to the sovereign God has given
you, my dear children ; be respectful towards those
who have directed you during your lives, and become
exemplary citizens and happy cultivators of those
charming valleys in which you pass your days. Adieu,
my dear children, may God bless you and shovt er his
grace upon you ; I shall pray for you, do you the
same fur me."

MARKET INTELLIGENCE.
(From the London New Price Current, Oct. 16.)
SUGAR.—To-day a large quantity of West India Sugar
was disposed of for home trade purposes, but in some
cases holders were compelled to accept prices rather
under those of Friday; there are not sellers generally at
any further reduction. The total purchases amounted to
1,100 hhds, &c., including a public sales of 160 hhds
Barbadoes, which went at steady rates—fine yellow went
at 40s to 41s 6d, middling and good 37s 61 to 39s 6d, low
36s 6d to 375, but 135 hhds 23 tierces and 38 barrels
Jamaica sold rather cheaper, low yellow at 35s 6d, mid-
dling 36s to 36s 6d, and good middling 37s per eat.
REFINED.—To-day a fair business was concluded in
Refined goods by home dealers, but not at better
prices ; brown Lumps were sold at 46s 6i to 475, and
lair grocery at 47s 61 to 48s per cwt. For Bonded
Crushed Sugar the market is still flat at 28s to 28s 61
per cwt. Today at public sale 261 boxes Foreign
Sugar Candy were taken in at sls for brown, and at
for pale straw.
MAURITIUS.—This afternoon Mauritius Sugar was not
offered at any further reduction, and none was submitted
to public sale; but the purchases concluded by private
treaty were unimportant for both grocery and refining
purposes.
EAST INDLL—This afternoon the quantity of Bengal
Sugar submitted to public competition amounted to 3,167
bags; the chi' f part sold, but generally at rather lower
rates; fine white Benares went at 39s 6d to 40s, mid
• and good 38s to 395, mid grey date 35s to 35s 6d, low
33s to 345, good soft yellow 36s 61, good an 1 fine strong
white 4.15 61 to 46s 6d, one small lot 48s, fine strong
yellow 42a 6d to 445. Of Madras, 3,749 bags were sold
upon rather lower terms; fine strong white went at 413,
good 41s to 425, good and fine yellow, like Mauritius,
37s to 38e, low and middling 35s to 36s 6d.
FOREIGN.—To-day holders of Foreign Sugar were not
disposed to accept lower rates, and retrained from offer-
ing any at public sale; by private treaty the business
concluded was, however, of little moment. A cargo of
yellow Ilavannah has been
,sold, chit fly damaged, at
38s 6d.
MOLASSES.—Previous rates are well sustained for all
sorts of West India and the sales concluded have been
rather important. About 600 puns have been disposed
or, chiefly at 15s 6d for middling St. Vincent's, Demerara,
and Trinidad, with small parcels of fine Antigua at
17s 6d to 18s per cwt. Arrivals still come in slowly, and
A further increase is apparent in deliveries. A fair
quantity of Bengal Treacle bas been disposed of at
14s 6d to 15s per cwt, and merchants are less disposed
to realise.

Cocoe.—West India is offered at a further decline,
and the supply exceeds the wants of home dealers; of
423 bags 56 barrels Trinidad at public sale, a part only
sold, good red at 44s 6d to 455, luw to middling 39s to
42s 6d, and low to good grey at 36s to 41s per cwt. The
stoek has been further increased, and lower rates are ex-
pected to prevail. In Foreign only trifling purchases
have been made, and there are sellers at a further re-
duction. To-day at public sale 150 bags Para Cocoa
were taken in at 28s for dark red.

COME.—This afternoon Plantation Ceylon Coffee
was dealt in with caution, and the public sales of 880
bags 116 casks went at rather lower rates, and the chief
part sold; middling at 51s to 545, low middling 48s to 50s,
fine to fine fine ordinary 42s to 47s other sorts 383 to
415, low 35s to 375, and pea berry 55s to 58s 6d. Native
is not much wanted, and 230 bags were taken in at 38s
to 38s 6d for good ordinary, damaged however sold at
36s to 37s 6d.
TEA.—To-clay the quantity of Tea submitted to
auction amounted to 25,970 pkgs. The trade operated
with reluctance, especially in Green, and of 13,000
pkgs passed the hammer only 2,700 sold. Prices declined
Id to 2d for Gunpowder, id to to id for Congou, as com-
pared with the last auctions, and other sorts of tea went
rather cheaper; Congou, fair and good common sound
sold at Bid to 9ii, Souchong ord llid to 1 lid, Young
Hyson common lOid, Imperial 'Canton, low Is, Gun-
powder is Old to Is 21d, and ord Hyson kind is 2d to
Is sid per lb. The market for tea has adult appearance.
IIICE.—To-day the market for East India Rice pre-
sented a lively aspect, and 1,238 bags of Madras at auc-
tion all sold at an advance on last week's rates of 3d per
cwt; mid pinky white realised 8s 6d to 9s, good 9* to
9* 6d, Bed damaged 6s 6d to 8s per cwt. By private
treaty some parcels of Bengal were sold, and mid white
Bengal could not be purchased under 9s 6d er cwt. Of
Tapioca 95 boxes were taken in at 60 to 7bd per lb.
SPICES.—To-day Pimento was more in demand, and
at auction 190 bags were mostly sold at full rates; good
mid and good went at 4i4 to sd; 2 cases of Mace sold,
good 2s 3d to 23 4d; 10 cases of Nutmegs went at
steady rates; mid brown 2s 8d to 2s 9d, and limed 2s.
SPIRITS.—On the part of holders of Jamaica Rum
there is much firmness, shippers and home dealers have
also operated more freely. The purchases since this day
week have been 400 puns at from 2s 6d to 4s for
ordinary to fine quality, 32 to 36 per cent over proof.
Demerara cannot be quoted higher, there is a brisker
sale, and 200 bhds have been sold at 2s to 2s 2d for 32
to 36 per cent. over proof. The market is firmer for
Leeward Island, and there has been a much better de-
mand; 500 puns having been sold at Is 54 for proof.
Sales to some extent have been made in East India at
Is 3d to is 31d, and there are not free sellers. The
market for Brandy had a quiet aspect. We quote
Cognac, best brands of the vintage of 1848 at 4s Si to
4s 7d; 1847 ditto 5s to 5* 2d; 1846 ditto at 5s 104 to es;
1845 ditto 6s 44 to 6s 6d, inferior sorts 2s 104 to 4s 44,

3d. British made Spirit at 9s Bd, and Gin at 83 to 83 64
tor 17 to 22 per cent. under proof.

tion amounted to 275 bags Honduras and nearly the

silvers, which went a little cheaper, black went at from
3s 9d to 5s sd, and silvers, 33 6d to 4s 7d.

Russian on the spot since this day week, and at higher
