VIENNA, JULY 9.—The silence which has been
hitherto observed respecting the marriage of the King of
Naples with the Archduchess Theresa, which has been often
reported in the journals, led people to imagine that it would
not take place, or that it bad not even been thought of. It is
now affirmed, however, that negociations arc going on fur this
purpose, and that ke King will, in conseonence. remain here
longer tnau was at first supposed. His Majesty continues to
attend reviews of troops, to see what is worthy of notice in this
city, and seems particularly pleased with the 'Prater, where he
is often seen in the evening in a small open chaise, with_ the
Prince of Salerno.
FRONTIERS OF ITALY, JULY 7.—The Pope
had invited the .French Princes to Rome, and they had ac-
cepted the invitation. The Pope is said to express great re-
gret at having lost the opportunity of_ becoming per-
sonally acquainted with them, in consequence of their speedy
return to Paris. It would have been desirable for him to
confer with them on various subjects, especially the evacuation
of Ancona. It is still affirmed that that place will be evacuated,
but there is no indication whatever in the French garrison of
such an intention. Yet letters from Rome affirm that as soon
as the Pope has formally expressed his wish to that effect, the
French Government is ready lo comply with it. The Austrians
will then quit the Legations.
The Bank Directbrs, at their weekly meeting of yes-
terday, have come to the determination of raising the rate of

Ilterest on commercial discounts to 4:1,- per no. The measure
sas, we believe, taken the monied classes very much by sur-
prise. A few months ago, when the rate on temporary loans
at the Bank was raised from V,- to 4 per cent., it ;vas common
enough to meet with the remark that this was preparatory to a
rise in the rate of discount, but money became comparatively
easy soon afterwards, when the notion was dismissed altogether,
and the Bankers became persuaded that the system was a per-
manent one. The occurrence of this advance so soon after the
payment of the dividends is a proof that the Bank Directors
see good cause for expecting that money will become mere
scarce towards the end of the year. In fact, private capitalists
and merchants will now do well to prepare themselves at no
distant period for an advance to 5 per cent. The following is
the official notice issued on this occasion:—" At a Court of
Directors at the Bank on Thursday, the 21st July, 1336, re-
solved—that the interest on bills of exchange and notes dis-
counted by the Bank be advanced to 43- per cent. per annum."

NEW ARTICLE OF COMMERCE.—A vessel arrived
at Boston on Friday last having on hoard twenty-five hogs-
heads of sausage skins. Whole hosts of hogs are slaughtered
down west, and the slaughterers—with a sharpness that would
do honour to a Yankee—are determined that nothing shall
be lust; so, having converted the hogs into pork, they pack
the bowels of the hogs into hog's-hads, and send them to •
Boston by ship loads to be stuffed with minced meat.—Ame-
rican Paper.
For several days past the weather has much more
resembled that of February and November, than the middle of
July. On Wednesday night the thermometer, in a sheltered
situation, was only a few degrees above 40.
EFFECTS OF THE HOT WEATHER.—The France
Aferidionale of Toulouse of the 7th inst., after noticing that
says—" If we may believe the accounts we have re-
the heat had been for several days at an unusual degree of in-
the detachment of the 9th regiment, which left Tou-
cteenitseitdy,,
louse a few days ago, suffered so severely from the ardent rays
of the sun, that many of the men were nearly suffocated, and
some became delirious, fancying they say rivers and lakes
before them, and some imagining they had been inarr;ed the
day before. On arriving at Aiguillon, they received every
possible relief and assistance from the faculty and inhabitants
at large, and it was not without great care that the sufferers
were recovered. Indeed, it is said that several died from not
being bled in time. It is added, the officers were afraid that
if the march had been continued another hour, they would
have lost half their men.--Jersey Argus.
A FEVER CURED.—Having read in some old book
of travels or voyages, that a sailor had been cured of fever by
having cold water thrown over him, I proposed a similar pro-
ceeding to my comrades, to which they assented. With some
difficulty I'succeeded in crawling to the door (for I was un-
willing to let any one touch me, for fear of infection), and a
bucket-full of water was thrown over me. The effect was like
magic. I was able to stand up andovalk back, and foil into a
profuse perspiration and comfortable sleep, on awakening out
of which the fever had left me.—Sketches in Russia.
WHALES IN LOCH FOYLE.—We have been in-
formed by a correspoadent, that, within the last three weeks,
no less than five whales of the species cete dentatas, or bottle-
nosed whale, got into the shallows on the Magillieau shore of
Loch Foyle, and were killed there. Three of them came in
on the townland of Ballymultimher, an old one and two young
ones. The old one measured eighteen feet, and was of pro-
portionable breadth ; and, when stripped of skin aed blubber,
which filled several carts, presented the appearance of a huge
slaughtered bullock, the covering of the bones being similar to
beef of superior kind, as exhibited in the sharablc3.—Derry
Sentinel.

HERTFORD WOOL FAIL-1111S fair was held on
Wednesday last, at which 3,356 fleeces were exhibited for
sale. After the fair there was a dinner at the Salisbury Arms,
which wag numerously and respectably attended, Viscount
Grimstone, M. P., in the chair, supported on the right by the
Hon. Captain Hotham, and on the left by S. Phelps: Esq.
After his Majesty's health and other loyal toasts were drank,
" The patrons of the fair" were given, among whom were
Earl Verulam, the Lord-Lieutenant of the county; the Mar.
quis of Salisbury, as President of the Association ; and
others. The speeches delivered were divested of 1; ;
po..t.es, and
the proceedings of the evening were distinguished by harmony
and good fellowship. - '
