Letters of the 10th instant from Rome announce
as certain the POPE'S speedy arrival at Rome. In
tho Consistory, held on the sth instant, the Cardinals
had received orders to prepare for their departure.
These letters also state, that so far from retarding his
HOLINESS, the late occurrences in Paris would, if
anything, hasten his return to his capital.
M. DE CORCELLES was expected at Portici to
regulate his return.
La Patric in like manner mentions that the POPE
has announced his intention to return to Rome on the
28th. He proposes to return by land, and lie will
stop at Terracino and Yelletri, where General Coil-
novA is to assemble 2,000 men, to be reviewed by
the Holy Father, previous to their being embarked
for Spain.

At the early hour of nine o'clock, this morning,
his Royal Highness Prince Albert, attended by
Colonel Grey and Colonel Gordon, visited the expo-
sition of specimens of French art and manufactures
collected by M. Sallandrouze de Lamoenais in the
spacious premises arranged for the purpose at No, 13,
George-street, Hanover-square. His Royal High-
ness examined, with great minuteness, the whole col-
lection, and was pleased to express his high commen-
dation of it, and of the motives for forming it ; he
also stated his intention of inducing her Majesty the
Queen to honour it with an early visit.

THE LEGACY OF 10,0001. TO THE NATIONAL
GALLERY.—The will of T. D. Lewis, Esq. (who was the
youngest and only curving son of the celebrated come-
dian), has been proved at Doctors Commons. It is
worthy of public note, and the memory of the deceased
demands public gratitude for a legacy of 10,0001., New
3/. ss. per Cent. Annuities to the National Gallery. To
'this munificent bequest is attached a gift of a valuable
portrait of the comedian in these words: " From a desire
to perpetuate the memory of one of the best of fathers,
whose private worth and public merit were alike deser-
vedly appreciated, I give and bequeath to the trustees of
the National Gallery the full length portrait of my late
dear father, William Thomas Lewis, Esq., painted by
Sir Martin Archer Shee ; and it is my particular request
that, in consideration of the above-mentioned legacy.
they will permanently 'provide some conspicuous
and eligible situation in the National Gallery for
the said portrait, and preserve the same in
good condition." The portrait represents the late cele-
brated comedian'as the Marquis is the Midnight Hour.
The pecuniary legacy is directed to be invested upon
trust to pay the dividends to Miss Lewis, the testa-
tor's only surviving sister, for life, and at her death
the 10,0001. is to be transferred to the trustees of the
National Gallery, "To the intent that the dividends,
interest, and annual proceeds to arise therefrom (but not
the capital thereof) may be laid out for the use or ob-
jects of the said gallery, or otherwise in the improve-
ment of the fine arts in such manner as the trustees of
such gallery, or any committee or committees of the
governors or directors thereof for the time being shall
think fit." Miss Lewis is appointed sole executrix of
the will, and, with the exception of the foregoing bene•
faction and legacies to the trustees, Thomas Smith
Tarleton, Esq., and William Edward Hilliard, Est, has
an entire and uncontrolled power of disposition over
the whole property of every kind whatever, including a
valuable collection of plate. In the event of Miss
Lewis net disposing of the whole, or any part of the
estate, some contingent legacies are given to private
friends and charities, and the ultimate residue is to be
divided between the deceased's only surviving relatives.
The property is sworn under 35,0004
VAUXUALL GARDENS.—That indefatigable caterer
for the public, Mr. Robert Wardell, now that the Casinos
are closed by the imperious mandate of the Middlesex
Solons, is actively engaged in preparing, at this Methu-
selah of public gardens, an entertainment during the
winter months specially dedicated to the votaries of
Apollo and Terpsichore. It is understood that the
royal property," as Vauxhall wasl facetiously; styled
by the immortal Simpson, M. 0., will open on boxing
night, with a comic pantomime, ballet, concert, and ball.
The Waterloo ground, Italian, and other walks, will be
closed to the public, while the " covered ways," as they
are termed, rotunda theatre, ball-room, and super pa-
vilion, will be brilliantly illuminated, and heated by means
of warm air apparatus,-ISuuday Times.

and COMMERCIAL NEWS.
CITY, QUARTER TO THREE.
The sales of Cotton at Liverpool on Saturday were
estimated at 6,000 bales, oZ which speculators took one-
half. 250 Pernein and Maraeliatn realised CH.J. to 7d.;
200 Egyptian, 7,-;d. to 74d.; and 300 Surat, to 41.

There was a decline of Is. per quarter in the price of
wheat in Mark-lane this morning. Some Australian
was offered at 525. per quarter.
The American private accounts, per Europa, have
been delivered, and are of a satisfactory complexion in
reference to commerce, although the fall business was
drawing to a close. The efh ct of the news taken out
from Eugland had been very decided upon the Cotton
Market, and the rise here, should it be maintained, will
put, it is said, an extra amount of about 20,000,000
dollars into the pockets of the American grocers
and merchants. By returns from the principal
southern ports, it is shown that the receipts
of cotton up to date had been unusually limited,
which is favourable to the planters if none resolve to sell
while they cau realise full prices. The effect of the ad-
vance at Liverpool will moreover be felt, it is anticipated,
in all departments of business in the States, and may
give a greater impetus to speculation than has been
realised for many years. It may be well to reflect, how-
ever, upon ultimate consequences, and upon the danger
of a future crash, the speculation of 1825 and 1826
having prostrated every interest in the country for years
after.
The demand for sterling exchange at New York does
not appear to have been very active, but the rate was
firm at 110 to 1101. The total value of the imports for
the week was 1,032,616 dollars.
There was extensive emigration going on from Ohio,
Indiana, and Illinois to lowa, as many as 1,500 waggons
having crossed the Mississippi within five weeks.
Accounts from Canada notice the prevalence of con-
tinued excitement upon political matters. At Montreal
there was little demand for flour, and exchange on Lon-
don was dull.
The business done in the city of Montreal during the
fall has shown a great and very gratifying increase.
Goods have sold readily, and to a very large amount,
and at good prices.
The Government has derived corresponding benefit,
and paid off the salaries due on the sth instant in cash.
They are also paying other demands in cash.
It is rumoured that tho increase of duties at the port
of Montreal alone for the quarter ending sth instant, is
Over 30,0001. above that of the corresponding quarter of
1848. This created such a demand for debentures that
they were returned to Government, through the Custom-
house, as fast as issued by the Receiver-General, and
hence it was considered better to make payments iu
money in the mean time.
Advices of October 11, from Otaheito, state that Eng-
lish influence there was increasing. Coffee was scarce.
Martinico and Guadeloupe, on the 27th September
were tranquil, but business was very dull.
From Mexico we have dates of October 27, and the
information that 450,000 dollars are on board the
feviot, of which 112,000 dollars were for the divi-
dends. The insurrection of Sierra Gordo had
ended, and the moderation of the Government
had produced a good effect. A terrible disease
called the " bobo" is said to have appeared at Vera
Cruz, having first been known at llavannah, and said to
be worse than the cholera.
From Venezuela the dates aro of Oct. 13. President
Menages was more firmly supported, and business was
improving. Coffee scarce and in active demand. Paez
was still in prison, but was treated apparently with be-
coming lenity,

while the unfortunate and accidental death of Mr.
