AUSTRIA.

The following is the last army bulletin :
"According to a telegraphic dispatch which we have
just received, the fortress of Leopoldstadt surrendered
at discretion yesterday, the 2d instant, at nine o'clock in
the morning, after having been bombarded for an hour.
Field-Marshal Lieutenant Simunich will without delay
advance in two columns by way of Gross Topolesan,
Neutra, and Verebely to occupy the mining towns
(Schemnitz and Kremnitz), as Major-General Gotz, to-
gether with the Brigade Jablonowsky, after the occupa-
tion of Nensohl, closely pursued the routed rebel hordes
under Georgy, as also the small bodies of insurgents
collected by Ballogh, near Assenberg.
" We have just received the following report from
Field-Marshal Lieutenant Dahlen, dated Agram, Fe-
bruary 1, 1849 :—' I have just had the news that Major-
General Baron Trebersburg, on the 30th January, at
five vas., attacked the suburbs of the fortress Essegg,
and took them by storm. At six o'clock our victorious
troops had got possession of the three suburbs. We
captured 100 of the rebels in their attempt to retreat into
the fortrest; among them were several cavalry officers.
The commanders of the storming columns were—Colonel
van der Null, of Gradiska Regiment; Colonel Halavanya,
of Brood Regiment; Major Dragich, of Peterwardein
Regiment; Capt. Tarbuck, of St. George Regiment (these
are four of the redoubted military frontier or Croat regi-
ments); and Capt.Barissich of the Imperial regiment Arch-
duke Leopold. At six o'clock the lower town was bom-
barded from the fortress during an hour. General Tre-
barsburg then sent an officer with a flag of truce to
summon the commander of the fortress to surrender.'
" The Brigades Palffy and Dietrich, belonging to the
Corps of the General of the Ordnance, Count Nugent,
occupied Fiintkirchen without any resistance being
offered, as has already been made known. Count Nu-
gent has dispatched troops from the last•meutioned town
in pursuit of the rebels under Neureygei, who have fled
towards Essegg, and has also sent a detachment to oc-
cupy Mohacs, there to effect a union with the Servians
operating on the left bank of the Danube.
" Field-Marshal Lieutenant W ELDEN, Civil and

Military Governor.
" Vienna, Feb. 3. 1849."

ITALY.

Letters from Rome of the 31st ult. announce that
the Roman Government has sent a new capitulation
to the Swiss for acceptance, in virtue of which they
will be in the service of the Roman States, and not in
that of the absent sovereign. The two Spanish ves-
sels that had arrived at Gaeta have no troops on board,
as had been stated. The other five vessels still keep
the open sea.

The Risorgimento of Turin,of the 4th, states that
as Count Plessa, the Piedmotese Minister, had not
been admitted to an audience
of the King of Naples,
Charles Albert has ordered
to Count Ludolf, Neapolitan passports to be delivered
Ambassador at Turin.
Florenceea of the 2d
The Costituente Italiana of
states that a retrograde demonstration, hdd by the
nobility, had taken place at Siena. A crowd, pre-
ceded by the Tuscan, instead of the
,p
I,talieawn:lawgiilNivethnet
to the grand-ducal palace, crying,
Constituent ! Long live the King of NAPLES!
Death to the students!" The movement was evi-
dently encouraged by the Governor. The students,
offended at the hostile feeling evinced towards them,
have determined to leave Siena, and continue their
studies at Pisa.
The Alba of Florence, of the 2d, publishes the sen-
tence of the military tribunal at Rome, in the affair
of the attempt of the 19th. Two of the soldiers have
been condemned to death • twenty to the galleys for
life, fifteen to the galleys fortwenty years, eleven for
fifteen.pars
the iantence's and three for five years. It is believed
to death will not be executed.

BRISTOL SUGAR MARKET, FEB. 9.—The transac-
ions of the week have been nuimportant, and in the few
ales effected prices are unaltered. The refined market
dull.—Bristol Mercury.
GAS : REDUCTIONS IX TUB PRICE, &C. In con-
sequence of past reductions at Doncaster, the consump-
tion has so much increased that the Company have de-
clared their intention on that special ground, to repeat the
experiment, by a further reduction to 4s. 7d. per 1,000
cubic feet. The Cambridge shareholders appear to have
now as hopeful a prospect before their eyes in deter-
mining to carry out the like principle. They have just
announced a reduction from 7s to 65., and the chairman
also stated " that the committee of management had
reason to hope that ultimately no town in the kingdom,
of comparative size and population, would be lighted laN
gas at a less expense than Cambridge." At Fareham,
on the contrary, the company have the stupidity to refuse
to reduce their price to 7s. 6d. It is proposed to light
the shire hall at Chelmsford from gas jets outside the
windows, a principle which we learn has been adopted
in other court houses with excellent effect, both in bril-
liancy and comfort.--"A petition to the Commons is in
Birmingham, according to the Journal,
progress at
praying them to enact that all gas meters shall be
pro-
perly proved and inspected, as measures generally are,
and that the irresponsibility of companies, or of those
by whom meters are supplied, as well as the liability of
incorrectly,be thus or otherwise
teeters to register . cholfield, M.P. is to intro-
properly checked. Mr. N
duce a Bill in
the forthcoming :wagon to remedy this

e
REPINED.—To-day the sales made in Refined goods
were of little moment for home trade purposes, and prices
are looking downward; Brown Lumps are offered at
48s to 495, Standard Lumps at 4.9 s 6d per cwt. For
Bonded Crushed the market is quiet at former terms.
MAtrumus.—This afternoon the demand was active
for Mauritius, and the public sales of 3,839 bags went at
6d per cwt advance for grey, and at stiffer rates for
other sorts.
EAST INDIA.—This afternoon the quantity of Bengal
Sugar offered at public sale was large, and amounted to
6,884 bags, still the whole sold at full rates. Of Ma-
nilla 1,300 bags were taken in at 32s 6d for low damp

larger scale at fully former rates.

however, of little moment this week, and prices rule from

Bahia were offered, when good and fine red were taken
in at 28a to 290, but damaged, sold at 23a to 275. Of
