ITALY.

The latest intelligence received from Rome is to
the 14th. During the nights of the 11th and 12th
the French were actively engaged in forming the
second parallel opposite to St. Yancrace. The first
night they were unmolested, but the second night the
Romans directed several discharges of cannon on
the workmen, killing two or three, and wounding
eight or nine. At break of day on the 12th a sortie
was made from the Portese gate, in order to sur-
prise the French in their works, and an engagement
took place with the protecting battalion. The
French receiving reinforcements, the Romans re-
treated within the walls beibre six in the morning.
The loss on either side is not known. On the 13th
and 14th the French batteries effected a breach in the
walls. The cotnmunicatio❑ with the sea is cut off.
General OUDINOT will spare no means to prevail
over the obstinate resistance of the Romans. He
has posted on the left bank of the Tiber some cavalry
and tirailleurs, to cut the aqueducts and intercept all
provisions. A French colonel of dragoons, who im-
prudently approached too near the walls, was made
prisoner. A temporary bridge forms the French
communication with the left bank of the river to the
south of the St. Paolo Gate. On the 13th the Romans
sent a fire-ship against the bridge, which was sunk by
the French artillery.
The fighting was again renewed on the 14th, and
continued when the courier left.
The Spaniards under General PALEZICA had been
defeated by the Romans.
Ancona still held out on the 12th.
Marshal RADETZKY arrived at Milan on the 16th.

MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS.
CITY, QUARTER TO THREE.
The sales of Cotton at Liverpool yesterday were esti-
mated at 7,000 bales, including 2,000 for export and on
speculation. The market closed steadily at full prices.
Shares were steady.
The Corn market has been very firm today, and the
arrivals are but small,comprising 2,410 quarters of foreign
Wheat and 4,950 of Oat?...
The business done this week in the Mincing-lane
markets has been rather limited by the smaller quantity
which holders offer, and the advanced terms which they
ask, especially for Sugar, not a public sale of which was
held yesterday or has been in progress to-day.
The royal mail steamer:Severn, brings late advices
from the West India islands. She has in specie and
bullion not far short of three quarters of a million of
dollars, besides a valuable cargo. In the }Raring of the
intelligence upon commercial topics we certainly find
very little alteration. Trade at Jamaica was dull, and
the inhabitants are still very rationally pressing upon
the attention of the Government. the necessity of cur-
tailing expenditure, and of adapting the colonial esta-
blishments to their altered circumstances. The season
in parts of Jamaica was not favourable for the crops,
and in the other islands there was no particular
alteration.
The Mexican accounts add nothing of importance to
what has already reached us. There is a repetition of
the statement that the Indians proved very troublesome,
but the information on this point does not appear to be
later.

We have stated our impression for some days
past that there was exaggeration in the estimated
deficiency of the revenue, and some of the City quid nunc
now begin to think so too. Indeed there is, in the view
of many, a probability of the revenue exhibiting a slight
surplus on the year, Irish distress notwithstanding, so
excellent has been the result of the pressure from with-
out in inducing curtailment of expenditure. On this

MARKET NEWS.-(THIS DAY

CORN-EXCHANGE—FRIDAY.
Although several fresh runs of English Wheat have
been received up to our market coastwise since Monday,
the total arrival for the week amounting to 1,560
quarters, the show of samples of both red and white
here to-day was again small, but of excellent quality.
The attendance of both town and country buyers was
limited, nevertheless the demand for all descriptions of
Wheat of home produce was decidedly firm at the ex-
treme rates of Monday, indeed, in some few instances,
selected qualities were held for more money. Prior to
the close of business a good clearance was effected. The
imports of Foreign Wheat have been confined to 2,410
quarters. We had a- 7ery moderate quantity on sale,
while the business passing was on the increase, at very
full currencies. Floating cargoes were more inquired
for at Is advance. The supply of Barley was but limited.
Grinding sorts were quite as dear as last week. Malting
and distilling parcels steady. Malt moved off slowly at
unaltered currencies. Good feed Oats ruled steady, but
most other kinds were a slow inquiry. Flour firm, and
quite as dear.

SMITIU'IELD.
The supply of Beasts in to-day's market was very
moderate as to number, the time of year considered, but
its general quality was good. All breeds were in steady,
though by no means active request, at prices about equal
to those paid on Monday. The top figure for Beef was
3s 8d per 81bs. With Sheep we were tolerably well
supplied. On the whole, the Mutton trade was in a very
sluggish state, and last week's quotations were with
difficulty supported ; the extreme value of the best old
Downs was 4s per Sibs. The number of Lambs was
somewhat extensive. Owing to the prevailing warm
weather, the Lamb trade was heavy, and in some in-
stances the currencies had a downward tendency. The
arrivals from the Isle of Wight have nearly ceased.
Calves were in good supply and fair demand, at late
rates. In Pigs next to nothing doing. Milch cows sold
at from 131 to 181 each, including their small Calf.
