THE PAPAL STATES.

ROME, Oct. 2.

The insurrectionary movement is entirely con-
fined to the province of Viterbo. Different insur-
gent bands have made their appearance at Bomarzo,
Caparda, Carbognam, Canino, and Acquapendente,
and after exacting supplies from the inhabitants,
and in some cases receiving reinforcements, re-
turned to the open country. They are now being
pursued by the Pontifical troops.
The chiefs of the sections of the National Roman
Association have issued a proclamation in which
they condemn the recent resignation of the Roman
Giunta, and announce that they have assumed the
future direction of the party of action. They also
appeal for unanimous support in order to attain the
object they have in view.

[ADVERTISEMENT.] —Holloway's Ointment and Pills.—
The beneficial effects of these remedies upon all the dis-
eases which arise from varying temperatures are a matter
of world-wide notoriety. Sore throats, inflamed tonsils,
relaxed uvula, hoarseness, viscous phlegm, and other throat
difficulties are dissipated by rubbin- Holloway's ointment
briskly twice a day upon the neck and chest. In all
stages of catarrh, chronic cough, wheezing, and shortness
of breath, the ointment exercises a specific power in
remedying and removing all irritation and all tendency to
inflammation of the mucous lining of the throat, and also
in its extension through the wind-pipe and the bronchial
tubes ; the ill consequences sprimi,ing from neglected colds
must be readily met and easily conquered by these iufal-
libls remedies.

Nothing can possibly surpass the suitable Neatness,
Elegance, and Economy of the Clothing made by HYAM
and GO. for Young Gentlemen, Boys and Youths. The
durability, adaptation to age, and superior tit, combined
with new improvements in stitching, braiding, &c., of the

They told bis client that the goods were of the
best electroplate, and that it was only because
of the forced sale that they could be had
so cheap, otherwise they could not have been
had for three times the money. The auctioneer
then put up a lot of cutlery, which one of
the menbid £3l for, and when it was knocked down
to him the auctioneer asked him for a deposit, to
which he replied, " I have no money now, but you
know I come up from Bristol every week, and I will
call on Saturday and pay you." The auctioneer
was not satisfied with that, and refused to admit a
sale of the goods. lie put them up again to auction,
:Ltid without his (Mr. Woutner's) client making a
single bid the auctioneer declared that he had
sold them to him for £35. As soon as he said so

the man who had previously bought them came to
him and offered him £5 for his bargain. His
reply was, " But how will they pay me ?" and
he directly said, " By a cheque," and flourished
a book of blank cheques about in his hand.
The gentleman then asked the auctioneer if he
would transfer the purchase to the other man, and
he said no, for he would rather have him for a cus-
tomer. (Laughter.) The gentleman and his friend
having, however, observing some private and mys-
terious conversations going on between the parties,
had their suspicions aroused, and refused to take
the cutlery.

Sir R. W. Carden interrupted Mr. Wontner, and
said he was then telling him what had been going
on to his knowledge for years, and what had been
over and over again exposed in the newspapers. It
was wonderful to him how any person could be so
green as to be taken in by them.
A gentleman here stepped forward, and said that
when he came to London and passed through some
of its most busy thoroughfares, with all its magni-
ficent buildings, he did not think that such a
swindling establishment would be allowed to exist.

Sir Robert W. Carden said he quite agreed with
the applicant that it was a disgrace to the City that
such places should exist.

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

A BLIND MAN CHARGED WITH DISORDERLY CONDUCT.
—Samuel Sullivan, a blind man, was charged before Mr.
.Knox with being drunk and disorderly.
Police-constable Monday, 78 0, said—About twelve
o'clock last night I heard a disturbance in Princes-row,
Newport Market, and on going up found the prisoner, who
was drunk, assaulting his wife and making a disturbance,
and I took him into custody.

Mr. Knox—Did his wife prefer any charge against him ?
Constable—She did not. The prisoner is a most dan-
gerous man, and has been charged with assaulting his wife,
and also a gentleman. He is in the habit of begging in
front of the National Gallery, and mostly goes home
drunk. _

The prisoner—l have been on the streets for six years,
and 1 defy any one to say I was drunk. The constable
called me a " Fenian," and that might have excited me. I
had only had two half quarterns of rum all day. My wife
aggravated me, and I might have struck her.
Police-constable Adams, 135 U—l saw the prisoner
strike his wife, and then pull her hair. lle then delibe-
rately knocked his wife down, and she was insensible for
some minutes. The prisoner was drunk and his language
very bad.
Prisoner—l was not drunk. Being called a Fenian, and
being blind, I became excited.
Mr. Knox—Did any such a word as Fenian escape your
lips, constable ?
Adams—The word was not made use of by the police,
but by some of the bystanders, a largo number of persons
being collected in consequence of the prisoner's conduct.
The prisoner's wife—l am hero. I have no charge
against him.
Mr. Knox (to the prisoner)—You knock your wife down,
and she now comes here and would get you off if she could.
As she does not charge you I cannot punish you fur the
assault upon her, but for the disorderly conduct I can, and
you will have to pay 40s. or a month.
The prisoner's wife appeared to have been much illused,
and bad a pair of black eyes.

observer; they will never change colour or decay, and will
be found superior to any teeth ever before used. This

MI)NEY MARKET

AND
COMMERCIAL INTFiLLIGENOE,

TWELVE O'CLOCK.

At the weekly court of the directors of the
Bank of England this morning no alteration was
announced in the minimum rate of discount, which
still remains at 2 per cent.
In the general discount market there is a very
moderate inquiry, and first-class short-dated paper
can be readily negotiated at lf lf per cent.
The sum of £48,000 in gold was taken to the Bank
of England yesterday, making upon balance a total
of £413,000 sent in during the week since the date
of the last return.

The Royal mail steamer Seine, with mails from
Brazil and the River Plate, arrived at Southampton
last evening. Intelligence from the seat of war in
Paraguay states th.at the allied fleet had passed
Curupaity, having suffered severely, many of the
ironclads being placed hurs de combat, and were
now lying in front of Ilumaita, but it was thought
impracticable to pass further up. By private ad-
vices from Buenos Ayres, it was asserted that this
was a preconcerted plan, and that upon Marshal
Lopez allowing the allies to gain this advantage,
offers of peace would be made, giving up the con-
quest of Paraguay, and on terms honourable
to all concerned. A fresh revolution had
broken out at Cordoba, and several prominent
members of the national Government had been im-
prisoned—in fact the interior provinces of the
Argentine Confederation are far from being in a
state of peace. Near Rio Janeiro the slaves of a
large plantation had revolted, and a military force
had been sent to restore order. The allied troops at
the seat of war were greatly harassed by Paraguayan
guerillas, and were suffering severely, having also to be
placed on short rations. At Buenos Ayres exchange
on England had closed at 48 nominal : about £150,000
had Passed. The Cordoba steamer for Liverpool
will bring about £lOO,OOO. Exchange on France
5.03 ; National Bonds, 531 ; sovereigns, 4 per
Cent. prem. ; and gold is still in demand for export
purposes. The railways were all doing well.
It is announced that Baron Steiglitz, of the Narva
Flax Mills, St. Petersburg, has opened a depot here
for the sale of sailcloth, ducks, &c., as supplied to
the Imperial Government of Russia ; Mr. W. 11.
Ilindley, of Queen-street, Cheapside, acting as his

A FRIENDLY TREAT —DEAD DRUNK.—George Holt, a
Custom-house officer, was brought before Mr. Benson
charged with being drunk and incapable of taking care of
himself.
William Girling, a police-constable, No. 80 13, stated
that he found the prisoner in Church-lane, Whitechapel,
yesterday evening, at a quarter before five o'clock, drunk
and incapable; in fact, dead drunk, and he would have
been robbed and ill-used in such a locality if he had not
removed him to the station-house.
The Defendant—The fact is that I met a few friends
from the country and got drinking rum with them. I got
too much, and it overcame me.
Mr. Benson—What are you ?
Prisoner—l am a Custom-house officer. It was only a
friendly treat.
Mr. Benson -A person in your situation ought to be
more careful. This is very disgraceful indeed. You are
an officer holding a good position under the Crown, and
should have shown a better example. You may go.
• DESERTION OF SEA ,APPRENTICES.—Daniel James, a
youth, was brought before Mr. Benson, charged with un-
lawfully deserting from the fishing smack Owner's Pride
before his term of apprenticeship expired.
Mr. Thomas Halfyard said he was the owner of the
smack Owner's Pride, which arrived in the river off Bil-
lingsgate on Tuesday last week. On the following Friday
the prisoner and another apprentice deserted the vessel
He found the prisoner last night in the Hoop and Grapes
publichouso, in liatcliff Highway. He said to him "What
aro you up to, s'r," to which lie replied that ho could not
agree with the captain. He asked the prisoner if the cap-
tain ill-used him, and he said "No." He ascertained the
prisoner had shipped on board a billy boy as a seaman,
and was to have sailed in her that morning. All the
prisoner's clothes were on board the billy boy except a
pair of boots, which cost 305., and which the lad had
pawned. He expected to find his other apprentice to day.
Mr. Benson—Has the vessel gone away ?
Mr. Hallyarl—Yes, sir—she is at sea. I was obliged to
ship two other hands for the apprentices who ran away.
I have other vessels, and one is now here. This lad has
12s. per week. Ile is apprenticed for two years; and he
went two trial voyages before he was indentured to me.
The prisoner, in defence, said the captain of the Owner's
Pride spoke harshly to him.
Mr. Benson said it was perfect nonsense for a great lad
like the prisoner, just on the verge of manhood, to take
offence at a few rough words. The apprentice ought to
have madelin effort to please his captain, and have done
his duty properly. He did not think the charge of deser-
tion was made out. It was an absence without leave, for
which the prisoner was liable to forfeit six days' pay for
every 24 hours absence from duty. As Mr. Halfyard had
very kindly offered to take back the apprentice, he would
allow him to be transferred to -another vessel, on his

_ ..,_

solemn promie to behave w,ll and faithfully do his duty
in future.

The Prisoner—l am very sorry. 1 will do my duty in
'ave.

Mr. Benson—You are fined six days' pay, which the
owner will stop from your rouges, and you must return to
your duty.

FRANCE.

PARIS, Oct. 3.

The Moniteur of this morning, referring to the
alarming rumours which were current yesterday on
the Paris Bourse, says :—" The rumours which
have been circulated in Paris, and especially on the
Bourse, are entirely devoid of foundation. It is
truly deplorable that the public credit should be
influenced by such manceuvres. The Government
has lost no time in requesting the judiciary autho-
rities to investigate the matter, and to seek the
authors of the false intelligence."
BOURSE, Oct. 2, Two o'clock.--The monthly
settlement on railway and miscellaneous securities
is taking place very unfavourably at the following,
rates :—Credit Mobilier shares 150 f., Spanish Mo-
bilier 150 f., Credit Foncier 1,225 f., Italian Fives
48f. The market is very agitated, and sales greatly
predominate. Three per Cents. are at 67f. 80c.,
with a decline of 90c. Italian Fives are at 45f. 75c.,

better at 165 f., with an advance of 9f. 75c. Spanish
Mobilier, 157 f. 50c., with a decline of Gf. 25c.
Credit Foncier is very weak at 1,237 f. 50c., losing
28f. 75c. French Railway shares also decline.

METROPOLITAN CATTLE.

There was about an average supply of beasts on sale
here to-day. For all breeds the demand ruled inactive ;
nevertheless, compared with Monday, no change took place
in the quotations. The highest figure was 5s per 81bs.
Sheep, the show of which was only moderate, changed
hands slowly, at Monday's decline in value. The best
Downs and half-breds sold at 4s 101 per Blbs. The few
calves on offer were mostly disposed of at high rates, via.
from 4s 6d to 5s 6d per 81bs. The sale for pigs ruled steady
at full prices. Mileh cows, however, commanded very little
attention.

The beneficial effects of these remedies upon all the dis-

of world-wide notoriety. Sore throats, inflamed tonsils,
relaxed uvula, hoarseness, viscous phlegm, and other throat
difficulties are dissipated by rubbing Holloway's ointment
briskly twice a day upon the neck and chest. In all
stages of catarrh, chronic cough, wheezing, and shortness
of breath, the ointment exercises a specific power in
remedying and removing all irritation and all tendency to
inflammation of the mucous lining of the throat, and also
in its extension through the wind-pip and the bronchial
tubes ; the ill consequences springing from neglected colds
must be readily met pd easily conquered by these infal-
lible remedies, ' -

THE MOCK AUCTIONS IN THE CITY.

At the Guildhall Police-court yesterday Mr.
Wontner, jun., applied to Sir Robert W. Carden
for a summons against certain persons for obtaining
money under false pretences, under the following
circumstances. His client was a gentleman who
held a high official position at the Cape of Good
Hope, and having recently arrived in London
was not aware of the frauds that were carried on
here. He was going along one of the most fre-
quented thoroughfares in London when his atten-
tion was attracted to one of those delightful
establishments, which now abound in the City
and metropolis, and have " Commission Sale Rooms
painted up over the window, but which were
nothing more than mock auctions. He went
in with a friend, believing it to be a bona fide sale.
He had no idea that there could be anything like
such a swindle carried on in one of the principal
thoroughfares of Loudon without being immediately
put down. When he entered he saw several women
and some men, who were apparently buying the lots
as they were put up ; but there were two men there
in particular who appeared to be bidding against
the strangers. The room was hung round with
plated goods, watches, chains, and other articles of
apparent value. After the sale of several articles,
which the women and men bought, a quan-
tity of plate' goods were put up for sale. As
these were things which his client wanted to
take back with him to the Cape of Good
Hope ho bid for them. The auctioneer (as he
might call him for distinction) said they were a por-
tion of a bankrupt's stock from Oxford-street, and
he was selling them under an order from the com-
missioners in bankruptcy. It was a forced sale, he
stated, in order to realise the assets of a bankrupt,
and that the goods which he had to sell in four lots
were worth £l5O. The first lot the auctioneer said
was worth £l9, and that was knocked down to the
complainant for £B, the next for £2l 155., the
next for £2l 58., and the fourth for 44. 3d.
