THE INSURRECTION IN
SICILY.

A letter from Naples, dated April 14, says :
A steamer has come in from Palermo just in time
to allow of my giving the reports of two consuls.
They say that the city was quiet ; the shops not
open ; and they write, on the 12th, the insurgents
were in occupation of all the neighbouring places
except Monreale. Engagements occurred daily, in
which lasses were incurred on either side. The
troops were expecting reinforcements, when they
could advance, but not till then. At the last
moment the intelligence arrived that Miselmeri,
the headquarters of the insurgents, had been re-
taken by the troops, who occupied it. The insur-
gents, on the approach of the troops, fired and then
retired. Castelcicala had sent up to urge that the
coast be watched. It is reported that bodies of
volunteers have landed, some say at Cape Passaro,
others in some part of the island.

COURT OF COMMON COUNCIL.

A Coirt of Common Council was held yesterday
at Guildhall—the Lord Mayor presiding.

MR. COBDEN.

The TOWN CLERIC read a communication which
had been addressed to him by Mr. Cobden, as
follows :

" Paris, March 31, 1860.
" Mr. Cobden presents his compliments to the Town
Clerk, and begs to thank him for the copy of the resolution
of the Court of Common Council of the 22d inst., voting to
Mr. Cobden the freedom of the City of London."
Mr. FULLER moved thut the communication
should be entered on the journals of the Court.
Mr. Ross seconded the motion.
Mr. W. Cox—ls that the whole of the contents
of the letter

The Town Clerk—That is all.
Mr. Deputy BARNARD—And enough, too, Mr.
Cobden is a man of business. (Hear, hear.)
The motion was then agreed to.
THE SITE OF SMITHFIELD.
In answer to an inquiry from Mr. Lawley, as to
whether any decisive answer had been received
from the Home Secretary respecting the appropria-
tion of a portion of Smithfield for a dead-meat
market.
Mr. TAYLOR said no answer had yet been re-
ceived, but that he expected one in a day or two,
and he hoped it would be of a satisfactory cha-
racter.

WEEKS'S HOT HOUSES.—There are several im-
provements recently introduced into the ingenious
system of heating by hot water apparatus—pits,
green houses, and conservatories—a system con-
trived some time back by the Messrs. Weeks and
Company, of Chelsea, the eminent horticultural
builders, engineers, ieonfounders, and manufac-
turers. These improvements, which are clearly
defined by the inventors themselves in an octavo
pamphlet of 48 pages, profusely illustrated with
explanatory wood-engravings, may be inspected
any day by the curious in such matters at the
establishment of the firm, lying between the King's-
read and the Fulham-road, and extending the
Whole distance (at the point indicated) between
these two great thoroughfares.

SARDINIA,

A letter from Turin, dated April 16, says,—
General Garibaldi, seeing that the Italians of
Nice have resolved to adopt the policy of absten-
tion, has given up his design of revisiting his na-
tive town, and gone to Genoa, where he yesterday
took part in the meeting of the political society La
Nazione, and accepted the chairmanship of the com-
mittee for giving assistance to the insurgents of
Sicily. This Sicilian movement excites here the
most intense interest, and it is believed that though
the great towns on the northern coast are undoubt-
edly in the hands of the Neapolitan government,
the interior of the island and southern maritime
towns have been occupied by the insurgents who have
established a government at Corteone. At Palermo
the number of arrests is incredible, even the Prince
of Niscami could not escape prison, though his
political opinions were not suspected, for having
spoken some bold words against the indiscriminate
persecutions of Signor Maniscalchi, the director of
police. The fight of the 4th instant was begun by
the soldiery, who surprised the conspirators when
they had assembled in the monastery della Gancia
—a friend, Fra Michele di Sant Antonio, having
betrayed their meeting. Whilst the struggle con-
tinued round the monastery, the Neapolitan frigates
and steamers bombarded and destroyed the village
of Ficarizzi, in the neighbourhood of the capital, to
keep the inhabitants, known for their revolutionary
tendency, off from Palermo. After the defeat of
the insurgents, the venerable abbess of the nunnery
della Sante Croci was arrested for having granted
an asylum to two flying insurgents in the cloisters
of the building.

It seems now to be certain that that illustrious
condottiere, General de Lamoriciere, in turn legiti-
mist, Orleanist, republican, and pontifical, has
received permission from the Imperial Government
to serve a foreign prince, and to command the papal
bands of Croats, Austrians, Bavarians, Swiss, and
Irish, a motley crowd of hirelings such as has not
been seen in Europe for the last three hundred
years. Napoleon sees that a revolution is nearly
inevitable in the Neapolitan States, and wishes to
prevent the annexation of Southern Italy to the
northern kingdom, and Lamoriciere has to keep
separate the two movements which agitate the
peninsula. The inheritance of the Bourbons is
not to devolve upon Victor Emmanuel, but upon
Murat. Still, if such is the wish of the Tuileries,
Poerio, Scialoja, and all the other Neapolitan re-
fugees at Turin, take a different view, and agitate
in favour of Italian unity under Victor Emmanuel,
in the hope that " the logic of events" will, as in
Central Italy, prove stronger than the wishes of the
Tuileries.

CORN EXCHANGE.

Fresh up, to-day, very little English wheat came to
hand coastwise or by land carriage ; hence the show of
samples was limited. For all kinds there was a steady de•
mend, at fully Monday's improvement in the quotations.
Owing to a large influx, amounting to nearly 23,000
qjtarters, foreign wheat was less active ; nevertheless prices
were well supported.
Floating cargoes of grain commanded previous rates.
There was a steady inquiry for barley, at full currencies.
The supply of English was limited.
Fine samples of malt sold steadily, other kinds slowly.
In prices no change took place.

There was a good conaumptive demand for oats, at ex-
treme quotations.
Beans and peas were quite as dear as on Monday.
The flour trade was healthy, at full prices.

THE ARMSTRONG GUNS FOR CIIIN-4

I letter in the Times says—l have a letter from an officer
at Suez, en route with this expedition, dated on the 30th of
March, and consequently subsequent to the extract which
appeared in the Times a"day or two since, and he makes no
mention of any mishap to his powder, leathern straps, or other
stores, which I think he would have done if any such ex-
isted. Ile says, however, that he had only just got a ship
to take on his men, and that they had been working day
and night for the last five days to get her ready for sea, and
that it would take them to the 2d of April to make matters
square. The Iniperatrix had been laying down the Red Sea
telegraph, and been pulled to pieces to make room for the
cable and paying. out gear ; all her decks were cut up, and
huge iron cylinders built from the bottom of the ship to
her upper deck, all of which had to be cleared away, and her
decks rebuilt. All the mess appurtenances, &c., had to be
made, and very many other heavy operations got over be-
fore they could go on board. He says there was no one in
such a place as that to do anything, and that many a regi-
ment would have been unable to do the work necessary for
embarkation. He adds that he had set all his artisans and
men to work, and they were getting over it in fine style,
to the astonishment of the owner and his engineers, and
that he expected to be in China in good time after all. He
had previously mentioned the retention of the Himalaya at
Alexandria, at great cost, for week after week, merely as a
barrack for his men, and the utter want of preparation for
the expedition. But as yet I have not heard that the ex-
pedition has become useless for want of ammunition.

England will remain unanswered. Political econo-
mists and manufacturers may discuss the relative
merits of labour and capital, the self-regulating
power of trade and the evils of legislative inter-
ference; they may disguise the truth from them-
selves by ingenious logic and cogent arguments,
but such reasoning would have small force to the
mother of smiling little ones, who had once realised
the idea of the feeble and fainting children drop-
ping asleep as they stand, growing up sickly and
stunted, or creeping home to die before their
mother's eyes, that the owners of the bleaching
works may gather in a little more gold. The love
of children is intuitive in almost every woman's
heart ; they will scarcely then fail to be moved by
this stirring appeal to enlist their energies and in-
fluences in the good cause. For ourselves, we con-
fidently anticipate an immediate alteration in the
system, and have little doubt that Mr. CROOK'S
bill will pass triumphantly through the approach-
ing committee, and through the third reading.

LAW OF LIBEL IN FRANCE.

his LORDSHIP, on taking the chair, said he was
anxious, before the meeting proceeded ,to discuss
the question of the Attorney-General's bankruptcy
bill, to call the attention of the society to‘the state
of the law of libel, or what was new discovered to
be the law of libel, in France. It appeared that his
excellent friend, Mr. Prevost Paradol, was about to
he prosecuted for a pamphlet which he lately pub-
lished, but in which it was impossible fur any man
why read it to find anything worthy of prosecu-
tion ; but after the recent decision of the Court of
Cassation, in the case of the action brought by the
sepresentatives of the late Bishop Rousseau against
the Bishop of Orleans, one could scarcely pronounce
anything. impossible. His lordship having ex-
plained the nature of the suit, and the course of the
proceedings through which it passed, went on to
say that the old Duke Pacakie, when he heard that
the court grounded its decision upon a law of his
proposal made in 1819, said that as he was morally
dead, being upwards of 90 years of age, he had, on
their own interpretation of the law, ground of
action for libel, as well on his own part as on that
of his old colleague, the late M. D. Score, as the de-
cree was tantamount to a post-mortem defamation ;
and that, had such a law existed in the time of
Tiberius, the four Evangelists might have been pro-
secuted for defaming Judas Iscariot. The law of
England, however, had no such rule, although it
did protect persons existent against the pain of
having their deceased relatives libelled, on the prin-
ciple that such abuse might lead to a breach of the
peace.

HARBOURS OF REFUGE.

Lord RAVENSWORTH wished to ask the noble duke
at the head of the Admiralty whether he was aware of any
intention on the part of her Majesty's Government to carry
out without further delay the recommendations of the
Royal Commission on harbours of refuge ? The recent
storm had caused tremendous losses in the merchant ser-
vice, and especially on the north-east coast, where the ex-
istence of harbours of refuge was most to be desired. He
belieVed he was speaking within bounds when he said that
during tho late awful gale not less than 300 vessels were
wrecked, mainly on the north-east coast of this country.
The phenomena of storms were now so well understood that
he believed intelligent commanders who were provided with
good barometers might become sensible of the approach of
a gale in time to make for the nearest harbour of refuge, if
such an asylum were provided for them.

The Euke of SOMERSET said it was customary to give
notice of any question of importance, as that rule had not
been observed on the present occasion, he was not in a
position to give the noble lord an answer to his question.

THE LATE GREAT YARMOUTH ELECTION.—Sir
Henry Edmond Knowles Lacon, Bart., M.P. for Great Yar-
mouth, attended yesterday at the Westminster police-court
to prosecute a charge of wilful and corrupt perjury against
Henry Fayerman, formerly of St. Nicholas-road, Great
Yarmouth, grocer. A summons was issued against defen-
dant on the 2Gth ult., and placed in the hands of Knowland,
one of the officers of the court, who on proceeding to Yar-
mouth found the accused's previous residence deserted. A
warrant was subsequently granted and placed in the hands
of Superintendent Jewsley, of the Yarmouth police, who
apprehended the accused while concealed in a cellar at
Norwich, on Saturday afternoon, and brought him to Lon-
don. Mr. Cooper, instructed by Mr. Hanrott, appeared for
the prosecution ; and Mr. Ribton, instructed by Messrs.
Nichols and Jlarke, for the accused. Mr. Cooper stated
that the present prosecution arose out of the last election
for the borough of Great Yarmouth, and a petition presented
to the House of Commons against the return of Sir Edmund
Henry Knowles Lacon and Sir Henry Josiah Stracey.
Amongst other witnesses called in support of that petition,
which had been referred to a select committee of the house,
was the defendant, who swore that on the 18th of April,
1859, he saw Sir Edmund Lacon, who gave him a £5 note
to vote for him. Mr. Stratford read his notes of Mr.
Phinn's questions and defendant's answers, which were to
the effect that at a meeting of Sir E. Lacon's supporters in
the Victoria-gardens, Sir E. Lacon met him, and took him
down the road commonly called the Alma-road, just oppo-
site the Victoria-gardens, and said, " Mr. Fayerman, are
you going to support me and Sir Henry Stracey ? " I said
I had not made up my mind. He says, " I suppose you
want a little money ?" I said it would be very acceptable.
He said, " Well, I will give you £s—that is as much as I
can afford—if you will vote for me and Sir Henry Stracey."
Defendant took the note, and when he got home endorsed
it as follows :—" Given by Sir Edmund Lacon his own self
the 18th of April, 1859, at 12 o'clock at night, from the
Victoria-gardens." The case was adjourned till Thursday,
defendant being required to find two sureties in £4O, and to
give 24 hours' notice of bail.

LAW OF BANKRUPTCY.

Mr. EDGAR stated that the committee had re-
ceived a valuable paper on the " Law of Bank-
ruptcy" from the Queen's Ancient Sergeant, but
as it came late, and did not exactly come within
the order of reference, they were unable to place
it before the society. It was a comprehensive view
of the law of bankruptcy in the principal commer-
cial countries of the world.

Lord. BROUGHAM, looking at the report of the
committee, which has been already published, said
it considered the official assignees only in one point
of view—viz., as the custodians of the estate.
Mr. LAWRENCE said the society had postponed
the consideration of that point until they had the
favour of his lordship's attendance. He believed
that the 30 years' experience which they had of
the working of the official assignees ought to con-
vince them of the necessity of retaining them, for
the duties which they performed were such as
should belong to no one but a recognised. public
officer: The Attorney-General's bill, however, pro-
posed to get rid of them indirectly, by divesting
them of all control at the moment the trade as-
signee was appointed, who would be paid by the
ereditors, arid have the right to appoint a manager
and his rate of remuneration.
Lord BROUGHAM-It will be difficult in the
House of Lords to get Lord 0 verstone to consent
to that. The proposal to do away with the inter-
ference of the official assignee at the moment that
his services are most required, I consider to be
monstrous, and calculated to bring back all the
abuses of the old system.
Mr. LAWRENCE proceeded to say that in the pre-
sent temper of the House of Commons it was the
House of Lords the people looked for calm and de-
liberate legislation, and having pointed ant several
cases, in which no one but a recognised public
officer could protect the estate from being dissi-
pated by jobbery or made away with by fraud, con-
cluded by moving a resolution to the effect that it
is not desirable to interfere with the official as-
signees in regard to their present duties.
Mr. GILMOUR seconded. the motion, and drew
attention to the fact that the system of trade as-
signees did not work well in Scotland, notwith-
standing that it was furnished with safeguards

PRASER'S MAGAZINE FOR JULY,
-I: beginning a half-yearly ♦olume, will contain the
First Part, to be continued monthly, of a CHRONICLE or
CURRENT HISTORY. It is proposed in this Chronicle to give
a summary of all important political events at home and
abroad, to comment on their general tenor in a moderate and
liberal spirit, and thus to furnish a short but complete history
of English and Foreign Affairs. The Chronique of the REVUE
DES DEUX MONDES, which IS ne of the most characteristic
features of that periodical, will supply the best example of
what is intended, although no direct attempt at imitation
will be made. and the CHRONICLE in FRASER'S MAGAZINE
will necessarily be shorter and more immediately adapted to
the wants of English readers.
