ITALY.

In its sitting of the 15th, the Chamber of Deputies
of Turin passed the Ministerial Bill for imposing a
tax upon mortmain property and corporate bodies, by
97 votes to 27. The Senate approved the first four-
teen articles of the Bill on the discipline ofjudieal
functionaries and their permanence in office.
The 'Opinione of Turin quotes letters from Milan
of the 15th, stating that Marshal RADETZKY has been
summoned to Vienna, for the purpose of accom-
panying the EMPEROR to Warsaw. Count GYULAY
is to assume the Government of Lombardy in the
interval. A rumour is current at Milan that the
daughter of the Grand Duke of HESSE DARMSTADT
is to be affianced to the Emperor of AUSTRIA.
The Constituzionale of Florence of the 13th states
that the Marquis FERDINAND BARTOLOMMEI having
applied to the prefecture of Florence for permission
to celebrate a funeral service in commemoration of
the battles of Curtalone and Montanara, in which the
Tuscan troops distinguished themselves against the
Austrians in 1848, the Prefect has met the applica-
tion with a refusal, notwithstanding the same anni-
versary had been celebrated in 1849 and 1850 with
the approbation of the Government.

ABD-EL-KADER.
The Journal d'lndre et Loire gives some interesting
particulars about Abd-el-Kader. The Ameer has been
permitted to take rides in the environs of Amboise, and
' a detachment of the 7th Chessman is spicially appointed
to accompany him in his excursions. But the coil and
rainy weather, which has prevailed since the end
of April, afforded the Ameer no opportunity of
availing himself of this indulgence until the
13th, when he left the chateau for the first time
since his arrival there, to visit Chenonceaux, formerly a
royal residence frequented by Francis I, Henry IL, and
Diana of Poitiers, and now the property of M. and Mme.
de Villeneuve, who had been the first towaeg, and everlcome Abd-
o
el-Kader to his new residence three years
since paid him the politest attentions, by sending him
rarest flowers and fruits their hothouses
could supply.
On this occasion Mine. do Villeneuve received the illus-
trious captive with her accustomed urbanity, and ac-
companied him throughout all the apartments of her
mansion. An abundant collation
was then served up for
the visitor and his
paniad by two of his sons, some
0-eittader was accom-
of his householdprincipal Arabs
, an interpreter,_ and Captain Boisonnet.
Eefere taking
Arabic in „es leave he wrote the following wards in
tonlyat Madame de Villeneuve's album:—" Praise be
to,:_the
God ! I have seen the world assembled in
t-ii3lsll2ec. It is like a fragment of the eternal
garden.. ' Greetirg to those who shall read this
_r_,wrsititig of mine. And I am Abd-el-Kader Ben Mslhi
Ljajn ; in the year 1267, Tuesday, the 10th
radzile (gay 13tb, 1851)." He then bid his two
children s:gn their names el,o, and watched with inte-
rest the manner in which they tr9ced their names. At
the moment of his departure, Mme. de Villeneuve ex-
press-et] a hope that the Ameer would repeat his visit.
"Madam," answ,red he, "to see you amain, I would
even return on foot "

• STATE OF TRADE.
(From the. Manchester Guardian.)
lISNCHESTER, MESDAY.—Yestercky we received ad-
vice's by the Asia, shcaing hat although the receipts
poiated to a crop emcee:ling 2,300,000 bak of cotton,
ye;, in consequenca of telegraphic reports of heavy frost
throughout North Alabama, Mississippi, and Tenessee,
on the 24 and 3a inst., there had occurred a riso of i. to
lc. per pound in the Noti York Market:, and ie. at Naw
Orleans. 'I'LL; intelligence appeared to tell rather in
favOur of the Liverpool holders of cotton, in the early
part of to-dry, according to the somewhat ques-
tionable authority posted on our Exchange; and an in-
crease of. firmness was therefore manifested throughout
the forenoon, both by the spinners and manufacturers,

so that it became more difficult to buy on terms which
were easily commanchd last week. Still there appeared but
little disposition to operate in goods; while, in yarns, toe
orders for exportation, though in some degree increased,
werefboth few and of restricted extent, and although this
home consumers ventured to make a good many offers,
issuing in a greater amount of business than they had
effected for some time before in any one day, yet the
whole of it would be made little account of in a settlel
state of things. Since high 'Change, we are informed
by telegraph that the Pacific has arrived in the Mersey,
with news of three days later date, from which we learn
that the advance at New York, referred to above,
did not exceed cent, the whole of which, with an
additional -I cent, was lost on the receipt of
unfavourable advicea from Liverpool and Man-
chester by the Europa, on the 9th instant. At once,
the spirit of our market is again, in some degree,
damped; •and, during the last two hours, we seem to
have been reverting, pretty decidedly, to the attainable
rates of last week. Those rates were beginning to
attract the attention of foreign merchants; and it is felt
to be better, therefore, that an advance originating solely
in an allegei heavy frost, and which must necessarily
hinder the full resumption of business, should be checked
in a day.
ROCHDALE, HONDA Y.—The flannel market is still in-
active, and the merchants show no disposition to pur-
chase. Indeed, not many buyers have attended, and a
very limited arhount of business has been transacted.
The price of wool continues firm, notwithstanding the
manufacturers are only purchasing for their immediate
wants.

MACCLESFIELD, TUESDAYS—The manufactured goods
trade.rewains entirely without alteration for the better.
Basiness is cl-ing to a certain extent, although at prices
whiCh are anything, but satisfactory to makers. Home
Thrown—Prices may be quoted the same as those
ranging for the last fo:taight. In some instances offers
have been made on the part of holders to do business at
a reduction of 6d. per lb. on previous rates, but up to
the present we have not heard of this concession having
led to business. Foreign,Thrown—Pbather more doing,
manufacturers continuing to turn attention to this de-
scription, the consequence of successive reductions in
price, and evident desire on the part of importers to
sell.

HAL/FAx, SATURDAY.—Low lastings and low cotton-
back lasting; have been inquired for 'to-day, but there
are very few to be met with. Other descriptions of
goods are very little sought after just now. There is
no improvement in the yarn market ; and prices are
without alteration. There is scarcely so much doing in
woo', with the turn in favour of the buyer.
LEEDS, TtrEsDAY.—The market to-day has been
dull; but on Saturday last a fair business was done, and
prices continue firm.

HUDDER6FIELD, TUESDAY.-Our market of to-day
has scarcely been an average one; less has been done on
the whole. Goods of a middle quality are the class
Principally in demand. Yarns are steady. In wool less
flat been done, at about the same prices as last week.
