the firm of W. and F. Ibbotson, who accepted a com-

MARKET NEWS.—(This Day.)

CORN EXCHANGE.

- - -
To-day's market was very scantily supplied with all
kinds of English wheat. Good and fine qualities were
disposed of at prices quite equal to Monday ; but low and
damp parcels met a heavy inquiry, at late rates.
Over 10,000 quarters of foreign wheat have come fresh
to band. Most descriptions moved off slowly, but no
change took place in their value.
Barley and malt sold slowly; nevertheless, prices were
well supported.
The supply of oats was limited, and the oat trade ruled
steady, at fall quotations.
In beans and peas very little was doing, at late rates.
Flour moved off heavily, on former terms.

ALEXANDRIA, DEC. 19, 1857.

The " Pekin" reached Suez this morning,

bringing Bombay dates to the 4th of December,
1857. Sir Colin Campbell having reached Cawn-

porn on the 2d of November, joined the force at
Alumbagh on the 21st [llth ?]
Oa the 231 [l3th ?] active operations com-
menced, and for the next six days there was a
constant series of severe and bloody struggles
with tho enemy.

On the 21st, their principal strongholds having
been captured, the beleagurect garrison was re-

lieved.

On the 20th the sick and wounded, ladies and
children, were sent back under an escort to

Cawupore.
The army under the Commander-in-Chief now

amounts to about 22,000 men, amply sufficient
to reduce Oude to entire subjection--a task which
will occupy them for some months to come.
Malwa field force, under Brigadier Stuart, has
relieved Nusseerabad, dispersed the Efriahibpore
and Mundesore rebels, and is now clearing Malwa
of the insurgents.

The flying columns under Brigadier Showers,
Colonel Cutton, and Colonel Tiddel, are scouring

We learn from Brussels that the Ministry intend
presenting, wry sh9r ly, a bill to increase the num-
ber of representative 3. It is thought that s;lc new
ineutb?rs will be proposed—two at Brussels, and
one each at Charleroy, Turnhout, Namur, and
Liege. The Ministry is also preparing a bill to
diminish the number of parliamentary ineorap-

In the Belgian Chamber of 11-presentatives, yes-

SPAIN.

The Madrid journals of the 18th have reached
us. The Queen had received the deputation from
the province of the Asturias charged to present the
young prince, in accordance with ancient custom,
a sum in gold in a silver box. The King, it may
be remembered, received this deputation some
time ago. In the mints of Madrid, Seville, and
Barcelona, a sum of 14,081,400 reals had been coined
in the cour e of the month of Nov.-12,751,800 in
gold, the rest in silver. The inhabitants of the
island of Porto Rico, to show their gratitude for
certain concessions recently made to them, and
especially for that relative to a change in their
currency, had proposed to present the Queen with
a very valuable bracelet : but her Majesty had
caused it to be notified, with her best thanks, that
she would only consent to receive a simple one in
gold. The Leon Espanol had been seized.

An Alexandria letter states that the Viceroy of
Egypt, continuing to show a friendly disposition
to Christians, had authorised the erection of
several Christian churches, the admission of Chri•i-
tian officers to his army, and the grant of a large
piece of ground at Cairo to the Christian brethren
for the construction of a residence, also the power
of opening schools in different places.

Lord Stratford de Rodelift° arrived at Vienna
on the evening of the 17th from Trieste, and was
received at the railway terminus by Sir Hamilton
Seymour.

The Government of Lombardy has issued a
notification, fixing the contingent of recruits for
that province at 8,357 men for the year 1858.
The total fur the whole Austrian empire amounts
to 103,115 men.

FEARFUL EARTHQUAKE IN THE
KINGDOM OF NAPLES.
MARSEILLES, DEC. 22.
Accounts from Naples of the 19th state that on
the 17th a fearful earthquake ravaged a portion
of the kingdom, principally the cities of Salerno,
Potenza, and Pula (I Nola ).
The buildings are seriously injured.
In the Province of Basilicata, and in the Prin-
cipality Citorienre, half of the villages are de-
stroyed, and the number of victims is estimated at
several thousands.
The authorities bad constructed temporary
sheds for the shelter of the inhabitants.
At Naples three violent shocks were felt, and
the population encamped outside the city during
one day ; but no serious accidents occurred.
Tha northern part of the kingdom of Naples
has not been subjected to this visitation.

BERLIN, DEC. 21.

The Bank of Prussia has reduced its discount
on commercial bills to GI per Cant., and its rate
of interest on loans on goods to 7 per cent.

We have received Constantinople journals
and letters to the 12th via Trieste. Lord
Stratford de Redcliffe's departure was the prin-
cipal subject of conversation. The general
opinion was that he would not return, and
Lord Lyons was spoken of as likely to succeed
him. It was thought that the measure of re-
ducing the army of Anatolia by one half would be
extended to the Turkish forces in Europe. As
to the troops in Arabia, there appears t.) be no
idea of diminishing their numbers at present.
Cabinet councils were being held every day, and,
on some occasions, twice within the last four and
twenty hours, to consider the best means of ward-
ing off the effects of the commercial crisis; but no
remedy or oven palliative had been devised.

BOURSE, Dec. 22.—The advance in Route and

ceded. The tone of the market has been, how-
ever, good, owing to the great steadiness of the
English Consol4. The market became rather heavy
towards the close, on the announcement that an

The budget of ways and means for 1858 presented
to the Thlgian Chambers estimates the yield of
direct a'id indirect t,xes and the sales of national
property at 141,910,790 fr., and it authorises the

Government to issue treasury bills to the amount
of 23,000,000 fr. The Government, in order to
provide for the carrying on of the public services
until the 'budget shall be voted, has resolved to
demand from the Chamber provisional votes of

A CAPTAIN Or ARTILLERY ON 'ME SPREE.—Captain
Benjamin Bathurst, of the Royal Artillery, at present
residing at No. 85, Great Portland-street, with Ellen
Dacre and Sarah White, two women of the town, were
brought before Mr. Beadon, charged with being drunk
and dimrderly at an early hour this morning in Union
street, Bond-street.
Morrie, 173 C, stated that about 20 minutes to two
this morning be was on duty in Bond-street, when his
attention was attracted to a great noise of shouting,
which appeared to proceed from Union-street. On going
to the spot he saw the male defendant and the females,
who were jumping and dancing about the centre of the
u'reet surrounded by a mob of the worst of charac'ere,
who were battling out and urging them on at the top of
their voices. He tried to disperse them, but without
effect, as the Captain swore be would have his spree out.
Another constable after came up, and after a deal of
trouble the defendants were lodged in the station-house,

The gallant Captain protea'eciagainst the right of the
policeman interfering with him or his anawement-, and
contended that as long as he could walk upright he
could not be called drunk.

She stated that after having submitted to a series of
ill-treatment from her husband for years, she feit com-
pelled, a fortnight ago, to come to this court and seek
the protection of the law. A warrant was issued against
him, upon which he was apprehended, but on his enter-
ing into an agreement to allow he/ a small sum of money
towards her maintenance, and to keep entirely away
from her, she consented to withdraw the charge, and he
was liberated upon entering into his own recognizance
to keep the peace, which he had, however, since broke❑
by assaulting her last night.

Applicant—No, sir; he comes to my house and annoys
me in every possible way. It is not only the assault I

ITALY.

A letter from Rome of the 16th gives some ac-
count of the ordination of Princo Lucien Bonaparte
to priest's orders, as already announced :—" The
Pope himself officiated in his private apartments,
and all the members of the Bonaparte family now
in Rome were present at the ceremony. The young
prince, who is remarkable for his piety, was greatly
affected. After the ceremony the Pope entertained
all the Bonaparte family at breakfast, Cardinal
Antonelli, Secretary of State, being present.
This day Mgr. Bonaparte slid his first nws,
the church he selected being that of Santa Ma-
ria, in the Via Lata, in which his mother, the
Princess Zenaida, is interred. The church was
crowded. A grand breakfast was afterwards given
in the Palace Gabrielli, ia which the prince re-
sides, and it was attended by several personages
of distinction, and amangst them Cardinals San-
tucei, Gaude, Gazzoli, and Barnabo."
Another letter from Rome says :
"The directors of the pontifical railways are
actively engaged in having surveys made for the
projected line between Rome and the frontier of
the Papal States as far as the banks of the Po.
The definitive plans of the sections from Rome to
Terni and from Ancona to Bologna will very shortly
be submitted to the approbation of the Minister
of Public Works. The line between Rome and
rerni will have a length of 106 kilometres (nearly
67 miles), divided into eight sections. The ter-
minus at Rome will be situated near the baths of
Titus, and the line will leave the city between the
Majeure and San Lorenzo gates. There will be
constructed on this line seven bridges, four tun-
nels, and several viaducts on a small scale. The
One from Ancona to Bologna will have its first
station at a short distance from the Lazaretto of
Ancona, and will have a terminus in common
with the Pio Centrale Railway at the Galliera Gate
of Bologna. The number of stations on this line
will be 14, and its length nearly 80 miles. The
numerous streams of water which cross the country
through which this railway will have to run
necessitate important works of art. A tunnel of
more than 1,000 yards in length will be cut
through the hill of Boneio, near La Cattolica."

keeping secret the enormously large and prcductive

they did before, at the suggestion of the Times news-
paper, when their stock was similarly depressed, to

It is understood that at a meeting btld yesterday
of ernoon of the Committee of Joint-Stock Banks
was unanimously agreed to recommend to their respec-
tive boards to reduce the rate of interest on deposits
to 6 per cent. per annum, and that the measure now
only awaits formal confirmation on the part of each
establishment to be forthwith acted upon.

COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE,

---►----

CITY, Two o'CLoCK.

The Liverpool Cotton Market yesterday mani-
fested a firm appearance, and the values of most
descriptions advanced fully id. per lb. The sales
were estimated at 5,000 bales, 1,500 of which were
taken by the speculators. The Railway Share
Market closed steadily, and prices are a shade
higher.
Although there has been a favourable subsidence
of commercial failures, the exciting terms of dis-
count and the injurious influence of recent events
are still producing a good deal of distress, and
numerous small houses are compelled to appeal to
the consideration of their creditors. A large
number suspend, which the public are
never informed about, the amounts in-
volved, although, in the aggregate, extensive,
being individually unimportant. It is thought
that the lift, so far as large firms are concerned,
is pretty nearly complete, but during the next few
months occasional instauces of stoppage will, no
doubt, be recorded. Three were announced yester-
day, viz.: Messrs. Lloyd Brothers, picture dealers
and exporters ; Messrs. C. Nicholson and Co.
warehousemen, both of London, and Mr. William
Reid, wholesale grocer, of Edinburgh, with liabili-
ties estimated at 20,000/. or 30,000/.
A meeting of the creditors of Messrs. E.
Sieveking and Co., has been held to-day, and the

SPAIN.

The Madrid journals of the 18th have reached
us. The Queen had received the deputation from
the province of the Asturias charged to present the
young prince, in accordance with ancient custom,
a sum in gold in a silver box. The King, it may
ba remembered, received this deputation some
time ago. In the mints of Madrid, Seville, and
Barcelona, a sum of 14,081,400 reals had been coined
in the tour e of the month of Nov.-12,751,800 in
gold, the rest in silver. The inhabitants of the
island of Porto Rico, to show their gratitude for
certain concessions recently made to them, and
especially for that relative to a change in their
currency, had proposed to present the Queen with
a very valuable bracelet : but her Majesty had
caused it to be notified, with her best thanks, that
she would only consent to receive a simple one in
gold. The Leon Espanol had been seized.

An Alexandria letter states that the Viceroy of
Egypt, continuing to show a friendly disposition
to Christians, had authorised the erection of
several Christian churches, the admission of Chris-
tian officers to his army, and the grant of a large
piece of ground at Cairo to the Christian brethren
for the construction of a residence, also the power
of opening schools in different places.

Lord Stratford de Redcliffe arrived at Vienna
on the evening of the 17th from Trieste, and was
received at the railway terminue by Sir Hamilton
Seymour.

The Government of Lombardy has issued a
notification, fixing the contingent of recruits for
that province at 8,357 men for the year 1858.
The total for the whole Austrian empire amounts
to 103,115 men.
