Letters from Trieste of the 18th instant state that
General Durando had landed at Venice with 2,200
men from Ancona.

NAPLES AND SICILY.

The Roman Gazette of the 18th, says--" Travellers
from Naples have brought the intelligence that the
Neapolitan Government has just ordered the arrest of
many excellent and industrious citizens. The latest
accounts from Messina are that General Nunziante
has divided his army into three corps, one of which is
destined against Catania, and the other against
Palermo.

THE REGISTRATIONS.
CITY OF LONDON.

Mr. M‘Christie resumed his sittings yesterday.
The name of Charles Grenville Prideaux, described
as of 2, Elm-court, and 4, Brick-court, Temple, was ob-
jected to by Mr. Smith on the ground that his qualifica-
tion was improperly stated. The qualification was for
Brick-court, but he had not occupied the chambers a
sufficient length of time to entitle him to vote, although
he had continuous occupation in the parish, having pre-
viously rented chambers in Elm-court.
Mr. SMITE{ stated that whore the continuous occupa-
tion was made up by residing in two houses, it was re-
quired that both of them should be set out in the quali-
fication column.
Mr. BROWN held that the Revising Barrister had
power to rectify such an omission.
Mr. M`CHRISTIE decided that the objection was
tenable, and struck the name from the list.
This being the day appointed for the election of Lord
Mayor, Mr. M‘Christio did not sit, but he will hold a
court to• morrow, at ten o'clock, when it is expected that
the revision will be completed.

JENNY BIND.—DUDLIN, SEPT. M.—Yesterday
morning the box-office of the Theatre Royal was opened
for the purpose of giving the public an opportunity of
selecting places in the house in order to hear the
" Swedish Nightingale." There was downright positive
excitement manifested—nearly as much as if the
" charmer" were present. We have not beheld the like
for a long time. As early as ten o'clock carriages, cars,
gigs, and other vehicles drove from all directions
towards the Talbot Arcade, and not only Ilawkin's-
street, but the square in front of the theatre soon became
crowded. The arcade itself was thronged by human
beings—young ladies—aye, and old ladies too—were
prominent in the crowd. They did not complain in the
least of the pushing and crushing which they endured.
The fact is the scene could not be likened to anything
we know of. Men came out of the box-office with
smiling faces and torn coats (black frock and dress), not
thinking of the garments at all, but looking with com-
placency on their tickets, and envied by their less for•
tunate neighbours, who could not get in to pay their
several thirty shillings for as many box seats. Altogether
it was laughable to witness the eagerness with which the
crowd pressed forward to secure places. Some police-
men wore present to keep order(?), and the party who
procured a ticket or tickets had to retire through
another door, and let his next neighbour take up a po-
sition before our old friend Mr. Barry, the box-keeper.
The theatre has been measured from pit to top gallery,
and eighteen inches allowed for each seat. The seats
have been all numbered, and the persons procuring
tickets receive corresponding numbers, so that no incon-
venience, annoyance, or disappointment can occur, as
each ticket-holder will be shown to the seat correspond-
ing with the number. The side passages of the pit
have been supplied with seats, and the exact number of
seats will be disposed of, so that no crush will be
experienced by the visitors who have paid for hearing
the gifted vocalist, whose visit has caused a sensation
amongst the play-going people of this city.
THE ARRIVAL OF THE HEAD-QUARTERS OF TILE
4TII (ICING'S OWN).—CHATHAM, SEPT. 26.—The head-
quarters of this distinguished regiment arrived this after-
noon by railway from Gravesend, and at the Strood
Terminus they embarked on board the Prince Edward
steamer for Chatham, and disembarked at the Sun Pier,
when they were welcomed by the excellent band of the
17th Regiment, sent specially by their colonel; the band
playing " Home, sweet home." The strength of the
head-quarters consist of 12 sergeants, 4 drummers, and
186 rank and file, with 18 women and 37 children, under
the command of Major T. Willlsoms, with the following
officers:—Captain H. A. Woltnan, Lieutenant and Ad-
jutant G . L. Thompson, Lieutenant J. A. Madigan,
Lieutenant H. Fitzgerald, Ensign A. R. Poyntz, Acting
Quartermaster Knott, and Surgeon Thomas G. Logan,
M.D. These troops came by the ship London, and the;
embarked at Madras on the sth of April last, and ar-
rived at the Cape on the 4th of June, and on the 24th of
that month, about twelve o'clock at night, a heavy gale
came on, the wind blowing in-shore, and the sea running
very high; they lost the mainyard, and parted the chain,
and lost their anchor; and in making for Muscle Bay
great danger was apprehended, and the troops collected
many of their things together in case of any serious
consequences. They state that from the violence of the
sea the ship touched ground about three times. The
ship afterwards put back for repairs, into Simon, s Bay,
on the sth July, and remained fifteen days, and then
sailed for England, and arrived off Gravesend on Sunday
last. Four privates and three children died on the voy-
age. Previous to the regiment leaving India 198 men
volunteered into other regiments. The head-quarters
left Chatham in the year 1852, and the troops that have
come home are exceedingly healthy. They will be me-
dically inspected to-morrow, and will march for Win-
chester on Thursday next. A detachment of 260 men,
under command of Captain F. M. Campbell, marchedl
'this morning for Winchester; and Captain T. Faunce
commands another division which marches to-morrow.
