NAPLES.

The King of NAPLES, after having accepted the
mediation of France and England in the affairs of
Sicily, has without reason assigned, repudiated his
former acceptance, and ordered the immediate re-
sumption of hostilities.

MARLBRO'-STREET-(THIS DAY.)
Elizabeth Richardson, a woman of notorious character,
was placed before Mr. Bingham, charged with annoying
and assaulting Mr. Archibald Hamilton, short•-hand
writer and reporter, residing in Bedford-street, South-
wark-bridge-road.

The complainant stated, that last night, about seven
o'clock, he was proceeding through Leicester•square,
when the prisoner came up to him, and annoyed him by
her importunities. Ile desired her to go away. She
refused, and calling him by the foulest epithwts, struck
him several blows in the face. A constable at that
moment came up, and took the prisoner into custody.
In defence, the prisoner said that the complainant in-
sulted her in a TO! y indelicate manner, and because she
resented the insult he gave her in charge.
Complainant indignantly denied the prisoner's asser-
tion, and Mr. Bingham committed her to the House of
Correction for seven days, with hard labour.

MONEY and COMMERCIAL !NEWS.'
CITY, QUARTEP TO THREE. *1
The Cotton Market at Liverpool yesterday was quiet.
Sales, 3,500 to 4,000 bales. American sorts realised
3fd. to 6d. per lb.—ln Railway Shares a fair business
was done, but without any improvement in prices.
We have voluminous accounts, per Hibernia, from the
United States and Canada, but we need only add a few
items to what appears in another column of The Sun.
The exports of specie from New York during the
week to Sept. 16 amounted to 171,000 dollars, chiefly to
France and Bermuda. The exports of goods during
the same period was estimated at 605,000 dollars, of
which 183,000 dollars to England, and 47,000 dollars
to France. The exports to the latter country
were increasing. In the price of State Stocks
there was no particular alteration, and the dealings were
limited. The amount of Government Stock (the new
loan) issued on foreign account was nearly 2,000,000
dollars in six weeeks. This amount was issued direct
from the Treasury, besides what had been bought in the
open market, and the discredit lately thrown upon
European securities has no doubt contributed to that
result. It is supposed that about 5,000,000 dollars will
be held by foreigners, and as the loan is for the federal
Government, not for any particular state, the security
is undeniable. Still we could wish that our capi-
talists sought employment for their surplus assets nearer
home.
Some of the oldest dry goods jobbing-houses in New
York had suspended pa) ment, but most of the suspen-
sions were of new houses, which had not been in busi-
ness above two or three years, and overtraded.
The commerce of New Orleans during the year end-
ing the Ist September amounted in value to 79,770,151
dollars, against 90,033,256 dollars in 1846-7.
The Corn Market in Canada had been higher, but
sympathised with that of New York, and became flatter
before the date of our present advices.
The accounts from Calcutta, Bombay, &e., have not
belied the expectation excited by the previous arrival.
A very fair sale was obtained for cotton and woollen
manufactures, metals, and other articles imported from
England, while a decline in freights and an easy state
of things in the money market would assist the
produce markets. The Union Bank affair, like too
many other similarly disgraceful occurrences, was
expected to sink into comparative oblivion, though
not to be soon forgotten by the unfortunate
shareholders. One would think that shareholders
generally must be the most good-natured people
in the world to put up so tamely with such malpractices,
and it would almost seem desirable to appoint a public
prosecutor of delinquent or even careless directors and
managers. They should answer with their purse, if not
in their person.
The following brief reference to the state of the pro-
duce markets during the last two or three weeks is fur-
nished by Messrs. Wilkinson and Jewesbury :
" Latterly a better business has been done, at full
rates; importers have shown every disposition to meet
the views of the buyers, and have supplied the markets
freely; the stocks continue to accumulate, notwithstand-
ing the increased deliveries for home consumption, which
have been considerable. From the manufacturing dis-
tricts the accounts continue favourable, particularly from
the woollen districts, where large orders are in course of
execution, chiefly for the Homo trade. The state of the
markets, as received by the last accounts from India,
which, though they show an improved demand
for British manufactures, at better prices, aro not so
encouraging as at first appeared, the low rate of ex-
change, viz. ls. 9d. to Is. 9d. more than compensating
for the advance upon goods ; this, together with the
gloomy aspect of affairs on the continent, have caused
prices :for cotton yarn, &c., to give way a little, the
German merchants being almost totally disinclined to
operate under present circumstances."
The English Stock Market has been very dull to-day,
but tolerably firm considering the importance which
some would attach to the state of affairs at Naples, but
which we have no doubt will prove " a nine days'
wonder," and result in the re-acceptance of mediation,
supposing, which may be doubted, that such has been
positively rejected since it was acquiesced in. Consols
have been 86 to a for Transfer, and 861 for Account.
Exchequer -bills have realised 30s. to 335. premium.
India block is fluctuating.
Mexican Stock is very buoyant again, being up to 19
and 19f. Portuguese Four per Cents. have touched 25.
Spanish Three per Cents. have been 23 to 23j. Dutch
Two-and-a-Half per Cents. are 45 to
Railway Shares are very quiet, bat prices are better
supported.
