" 1. The Civic Guard of Rome is dissolved.
"2 It wilt be immediately reformed on its original
basis.

The Prince of CANINo is at Civita Vecchia with
STERBINI. MAZZINI remains in Rome protected by
an English and an American passport. Mr. FREE.
BORN, the British Consul, has had an interview with
General OUDINOT, for the purpose of obviating any
obstacles which might be interposed by the state of
siege to the free pissage of British subjects and
correspondence, and received satisfactory assurances
on this head.

The streets are cleared by the French troops
every evening at nine o'clock. No resistance is
offered, but the people amuse themselves by assem-
bling at the windows of the houses and crowing.
The shops are all closed, acd the aspect of Rome is
most dreary.

Accounts from Genoa state that the steam boat
which arrived on the 71th from Civita Vecchia had
STERBINI on board.

uounce the sudden death of Mr. Stigant, the store-keeper
of Devonport Dockyard. He had teen confined to his

linquish duty, for he constantly signed his papers,
Bcc. lie struck his leg and knocked off the skin, and
inflammation took place ; but he was better, and he
had been down stairs and out in his garden, and in-
tended going to his office on Monday. Ile appeared
better on Saturday, end was out in his garden, but just
after five P.M he returned into his house and called for
Mrs. Stigant, and had barely reached the room when he
fell down. Messrs. Folds and Reed, the surgeons of the
establishment, were immediately in attendance, and Dr.
Glasson was instantly sent for, but he expired in less
than halt an hour, from, it is said, spasmodic affection of
the heart. Mr. Stigant was an old and valuable public,
servant; he was a man of the highest character forthe
strictest integrity and for indefatigable devotion to his
duties. He held the office of storekeeper since November.,
1844, having been promoted for his lung and faithful ser-
vices as chief clerk at Portsmouth dockyard.

Intelligence has been received from Rome to lbs
7th inst.
A new official paper, entitled the Giornale di Ant; has been started by the French governors of Rome
as their official gazette. It announces the appoint-
ment of General CASTELNAU as Minister of War, and
contains several official proclamations among others
the following, dated July 6th, ordaining the dissolu-
tion of the Civic Guard :
" The Commander-in• Chief of the French army con-
sidering that the Civic Guard of Rome, which for a long
time render:d great service in zramtaining order, is at
present engaged in a diff,aent course, many unworthy
of the uniform being admitted into its ranks, ordains as

" 3. Th? Governor of Rome is charged with the
ext cation of this order.

Another order of the same date decrees a general
disarming of a e citizens, in consequence of the nu-
merous assassinations ; and consequent on the above,
one by the Governor Ro,Tor.AN, as fi,llows :
" Inhabitants of Rome,—ln execution of the orders f
the commander-iti-chief r, laLive to the Civic Guard and
general itivlrtn.,ment, all the inhabitants must deliver up
their arms and munitions of war in the manner follow-
ing. (Rear, the several places where the arm, are to be
deposited are named.) An officer will be at each place
to receive them. Tne operations will commence at six

of such articles or arms before the commandant of the
place. All ingress or egress through the gates of St
Laurent, Sulava, and Angelica, is prohibited.

The Neapolitan and Spanish troops are reported
to have re-entered the Neapolitan territories.
It was rumoured that GARIBALDI had been at-
tacked, his band dispersed, and himself taken prisoner.
The rumour, however, needs confirmation. M. M.
DE CORRELLES and DE RAYNEYAL arrived in Rome
on the 7th.
