TUSCANY AND ROME.

All was quiet at Leghorn on the 1 1 th. The Go-
vernment has got the upper hand by persuasion and
conciliation. The municipality are assembled; the
extraordinary commissions are dissolved, except that
for public security, which is necessary in the absence
of the police. A provisional civic guard is re-
organizing.
The Conciliatore of Florence, of the 9th, announces
from Rome that the political league between Sardinia,
Tuscany, and Rome is all but signed. In the project
a Diet is instituted, with the right of declaring war
and concluding peace. PARETO, ROSMINI, and the
Tuscan Minister are armed with full powers to sign
the document. The assent of the other Italian powers
is expected. The PONTIFF is glad of such a means
of saving his responsibility on the subject of war,
which he could not conciliate with his office of
Supreme Pontiff.

THE METROPOLITAN COMMIS-
SIONERS OF SEWERS.—(THIS DAY.)
The Metropolitan Sanitary Commission held a Court
of Sewers this morning, at the Court-house, Greek-
street, Soho, to authorise the quarterly pa)ment of their
officers' salaries and the expenses of their executive.
It was intimated that the Lord Chancellor had not
yet issued his warrant nominating the Commissioners
under the new Act, but it was expected every day, and
the moment it was received a Court would be held to
enable the present Commissioners to surrender their
functions into the hands of their successors.

Mr. Thomas Mitchell, of Beresford-street, Newington,
was fined bOl. for neglecting to obey the order of the
Court in reference to the removal of a nuisance on his
premises.
The Court adjourned till Thursday, October 12.

day preparations commenced within the 'rower of Lon-
don for the erection of a colossal granite statue of the
Duke of Wellington, similar to that of King William the
Fourth at New London- bridge. It is to be plated mid-
way between the white tower and the green, fronting the
noble flight of steps leading from Traitors'-gate. The
pedestal will occupy a space of 144 square feet.

THE HAMPTON COURT VINE.-1.115_ noble tine,

more than 120 years old, nearly as many feet in length,
its stem 32 inches in circumference, is now laden with
more than 2,000 bunches of fine grapes, rapidly ripening,
and weighing on an average 17 ounces each bunch, or
in the whole nearly one ton. They are of the finest
black llamburgh kind, and are said to be reserved
chiefly for the Queen's table.
ST. IVES.—Mr. John Stevens, of Treve, Phillack,
has a ewe now in his possession that yenned a fine lamb
last February, and 'on Monday it yeaned another—an
unheard-of case in this neighbourhood. Both lambs
with their dam are well.— Western Luminary.

WINDSOR CASTLE, WEDNESDAY EVEN-ING.—Yes-
,erchiy, so early as eleven o'clock in the morning, the
persons in attendance for the admission of visitors to the
state apartments were taken by surprise, by. the sudden
appearance of more than a thousand visitors in one body,
who had just arrived by the new line of railway from
Waterloo-bridge to Datchet. Each of these persons had
been furnished with a day-ticket, of which the following
is a copy :—" Special Express Train—Excursion to
Windsor and back, on Tuesday, the 19th September.—
This ticket will admit the bearer to view the state apart-
ments on presentation at the Lord Chamberlain's Office,
Windsor Castle, between the hours of one and four.
Ticket, 35. Signed, EDWARD RICKETTS." It appears
that the directors of the railway had given no notice to
the persons in attendance of this extraordinary consign-
ment of visitore, and considerable delay took place
whilst the written tickets for their admission were being
filled up.
SALE OF A CHAPEL.—The Wesleyan chapel in St.
Mary-axe, which is held under the Skinners' Company
for an unexpired term of twenty years, was sold by the
trustees at Garraway's yesterday. There was but a thin
attendance, and a sale was eventually effected at 7CI,
INFLUX OF VISITORS TO INVERNESS.—So great
was the influx of visitors last week to Inverness that not
a single bed could be got on Tuesday night, either in
the Caledonian, Union, Royal, or Commercial Hotels,
for love or money—every h. d-room in these respective
hotels being taken at a large extra charge. Indeed,
throughout the season, the influx of visitors to the High-
land capital has been greater than during any season
before.—Scotch paper.
THE BRAZILS.— The NVillian Russell, Captain
Golding, arrived at Liverpool on Wednesday, with com-
mercial accounts from Pernambuco to the 12th of
August. Trade at that port was rather dull; freights
had a downward tendency, and exchange on England
was nominal, at 251 The Swordfish, Captain Green,
was to sail from Pernambuco for Liverpool on the lbth
of August.
The Earl and Countess of Aboyne, who are staying
with the Marquis of Iluntly at Aboyne Castle, Aber-
deenshire, are expected to return to Orton House, near
Peterborough, early in the ensuing month for the
winter.
