ITALY.

In reply to certain strictures addressed to Pied-
mont by the offic;al press of L mbardy, the Opinione
of Turin of the 25th says
" Far from being exposed to the calamities of
iusurrection, Sardinia is of all countries that which
has known best how to avert them. Austria is
mistaken when she says that during the la.e dis-
turbances her Italian provinces have not suffered
from Mazzini's attacks. It used to be said that
the pipe of a French corporal had created in Italy
a conflagration fatal to Austria. We will not say
the same of the pipe of a Piedmontese corporal,
but it is certain that the report of Sardinian can-
non in Italy would have quite a different effect
fcom that of Mazzinian conspiracies ; for it would
be a signal in which the people would have con-
fidence, because they would be convinced that if
such an enterprise were commenced it would be
with sufficient means, and that its object would
be in harmony with the, wishes of the nation ;
while Mazz;ni, although Austria thinks him more
logical in his endeavours, has neither means equal
to the resistance he will meet with, nor au object
sanctioned by public opinion."

GRAND REVIEW" AT ALDERSHOT.

This morning, at 10 o'clock, ber Majesty, attended by
a bridiant staff, reviewed the troops at present in camp
at Aldershot.
The lit battalion of the Coldstream Guards, the 223,
;Atli, and 66,..h Regiments of Infantry, the Ist, 4tb, Gtb,
7th, and 15th Regiments of Cavalry, a troop of Horse
Artillery, and one field battery composed the force re-

approached, the whole line presented
ar
viewed.
olS'lloaujstreswyere hwered, and the bands played the
Asuq. her
c
National Anthem, while the field battery overlooking the
heights of the South Camp fired the Royal salute.
The manceuvres performed on this occasion consisted
of a continuation of the movements which took place on
the last occasion of her Majesty's visit to the camp. It
wile be recollected that the evolutions then gone through
represented the sudden attack of a superior force before
the a lvance of which the camp troops had to retire.
This morning the supposed enemy were attacked on
the right position on Tystock Bridge from two points.
A strong brigade under Lord W. Paulett advanced from
Elmore Farm, and crossing the Basingstoke canal in
pontoons, effected a juncture with the main body of the
army under Ganeral Knollye. The enemy's advanced
position was then carried, and the enemy retreated, hotly
purified by the Cavalry and Horse Artillery. The
whole of the mar ceuvres were performed evidently to
the addiiration of her Majesty, and the usual final salute
having been given the review terminated.
Her Majesty, the Prince Consort and the royal
staff returned to the Pavillion.
The weather was magnificent, and the attendance of
company was exceedingly numerous. The Conte de
Paris, the Duke D'Aumde and several other distinguished
foreigners were present at the review.

TRANSPORT OF TROOPS TO THE EAST.

S.r C. NAPIER, inquired, if in the event of Govern-
ment deciding to send troops to India by steam, they
bad a single screw ship in either Sheerness, Portsmouth,
or Plymouth, in commiss:on, fit to carry troops, and
ready for immediate service ?
Sir C. WOOD—Certainly not a single ship. The ships
in cm:mission are calculated for home defence, not for
conveyance of troops. They are screw ships of the line.
SUPERANNUATION ACT AMENDMENT BILL
Lord NAAS asked whether the Government would
give a day for the discussion of the Superannuation Act
Amendment Bill ? If the noble lord would consent to
the second reading to-night, and fix a day for the com-
mittee, it would be convenient.
Lord PALMERSTON replied that it would be
im-
possible to agree to the proposal to read
a second
time to-night, as a matter of form, a bill the subject o
_
of
which must be thoroughly discussed ; nor could he pro-
mise a morning siting for the committee.
THE INDIAN MUTINY.
Mr. VANSITTART inquired whether it was true that
the Lieutenant-Governor of the north-western pert of
L,dia had issued a proclamation, offering an amnesty to
tatillatththeernGuot ,vneereorosr
•wGneheoTal ad
might
tlay down their arms, and
disapproved of the pro-
ceeding, And recalled Inca ?
Sir G GREY replied that such a proclamation had
been issued, and disappreved. It had been recalled, ex-
cept with regard to the interval between the issue and
withdrawal; but he was not aware that Mr. Colvin bad
resigned, or bad been recalled ; and he hoped not, for Mr.
Colvin had been a useful officer, and with this single ex-
ception had given satisfaction.
EDUCATION.
Sir J. PAKINGTON wished to state with reference
to the resolution of which he had given notice early, that
at this period of the session he felt it would be useless to
proceed with that resolution. He should, therefore, as
soon as thg noble lord could give him a day, move an
address for a commission to inquire into the subject of
education.

IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT

HOUSE OF LORDS.—(YEsTERDAY.)

The LORD CHANCELLOR took his seat on the Woolsack
at five o'clock.
TEIE AFRICAN SLAVE TRADE. •

In answer to a quastion from the LORD CHANCELLOR,
1, Lord BROUGHAM said he had not the slightest oh.
jection to postpone his motion respecting the African
Slave Trade until to-morrow for the convenience of the
noble earl the Sec-etaryof Statefor Foreign Affairs. Ile
should frame his in, tion as little offensive to the Rn-
perm- of the French as possible.
The Earl of CLARENDON' trusted that a longer
postponement than t )-morrow would be arranged, as
her Maje-ty's Government bad not yet had time to con-
sider the terms of the motion. At the same time be
assured the noble luri that he felt the importance of the
subject, and that "it should be discussed at the earliest
peri d.

- Lord BROUGHAM regretted be could not consent
to postpone hi, motion further than to-,norrow-evening.

TRANSPORT OF TROOPS.

The Earl of ELLENBOROUGH called the attention
of their lordships to the very great importance of trao-
smiting troops at the earliest period possible to
India, and referred ta the rate of exchange,
which would have an important bearing on the expendi-
ture that would be created by the transmission of troops.
The freight money war, it appeared, to be paid
in Calcutta, mid from what he knew of the Trea-
sury at that place, it would be utterly unable to
meet the expense incurred. It was a very important
subject, and not, a inotnent ought to be lost by the Go-
vernment in communicating with the Es,t India Board,
with a view of averting the impending evil.
Earl GRANVILLE said the subject, without doubt,
was a most important one, and measures had been
taken to prevent the difficulty apprehended by the noble
lord.

The Earl of ELLENBOROUGH said he had been
in communication with a great numbar of gentlemen
connected with India, and he had never met one who
had not a thorough distrust of the gen Leman at
the head of the Board of Control. (Much langhter.)

0031 PANT.

The plaintiff in this action is a builder in New-road,
and the defendants aro the above well-known company,
and the action was brought to recover for damage dune
to a horse belonging to the plaintiff through the negli-
gence of defendants' servant.
Mr. Buchanan appeared for the plaintiff, and Mr.
Sleigh was counsel for the company.
Mr. Buchanan stated the case, from which it appeared
that on the 22d April last, a lad in the service of the
plaintiff was driving a horse and cart down Castle street,
City-road, and was turtling into Tabernacle-row, when
one of the defendants' omnibuses was driving along,
and before the lad could draw up one of the wheels passed
over the near fore foot of the plaintiff's horse. After the
accident plaintiff had several interviews with gentlemen
at the company's otfic -8 when he claimed 121., and he
was at first offered 71 in cash, and five 11. shares, but
afterwards they proposed t ref.r the matter to arbitra-
tion, which plaintiff refused to agree to, as they had

frequently promised to pay the amount.
Tee evidence as to the way in which the accident oe•
curred was very conflicting, and it was contended for
the defence that it arose in c insequence of plaintiff's boy
being too littbi to have a proper control over the horse
he was driving.
The plaintiff was examined and spoke to the several
conversations when the of srs were made, and his clerk
proved that he called on several occasions and applied
for the amount, and had been ptomised that plaintiff
should he paid.
Mr. Pope, the secretary of the company, was called,
and stated that the proposition emanated from the plain•
tiff and not from himself.

Mr. Sleigh asked him if he had ever admitted that the
company's servants were in the wrong.
His Honour said that that had not been proved.
Mr. Bin'Joann then addressed the Court in support of
the plaintiff's evidence, and contended that the aecidet t
arose wholly from the negligence of the defendants' ser-
vants.

His Honour was very sorry to have decide the case
on some points. He oonsidered that the plaintiff's boy
had given his evidence in a very proper m tuner, but it
appeared that the boy was not able properly to check
the horse. There did not appear any neglect on the part
of the defendants' driver. The English law, however,
was stringent, that when a pary had in any way contri-
buted to the accident he could not recover damages. In
this case he thought it in a great measure arose through
the incapacity of the boy, and he must therefore find for
the defendants.

• IMPOItTANT DECISION.—A. case of some importance
to tradesmen having bagatelle, tables in their houses
was decided this moruiog.

Mr. Van Datnon, a tobacconist, residing at 55, Nov
ington-causeway, appeared to answer a summons that
had been issued against him for permitting gaming in hio

house.
From the evidence of a police constable, it appeared
that in a room adjoining the shop kept by Mr. Ve
Damon was a bagatelle table, at which several partiee
were playing, and during the progress of the game
several bets of five shillings were made.
Mr. Soloman, for Mr. Van Damon, cOnsidered that
no offence had been committed, inasmuch as he had 013"
tained a license for a bagatelle table.
Mr. Co Mbe said he was of opinion that the statute under
which the bagatelle license was granted did not roilke
it an offence to bet on the game, and, acting upon 00
view, he should order the summons to be dismissed.

CHARGE of LIBEL.—LIVERPOOL, J ulyls. —The cricoi'
nal charge of libel rgainst Mr. Odeley, editor and pro"
prietur of the Liverpool Herald, for an alleged impeach'
meat of the cbaitity of three Roman Catholic priests ill
the Isle of Man, has been adjourned until Tuesday week'
['be article in question sets out by an attack upon tbs
Romieh institution of the celibacy of the priestoood:i
toints to the temptation such a law engenders, an
4ates that in the priest's house, Isle of Man, three priest°
have three young and pretty servant girls to attend u 10.4
them. The writer, after asking what necessity there l'
for three domestics, says he does not impute anythia
indecorous or immoral to these gentlemen, but be know*
"from high authority of the Papal Church (0, ne), that koo
priest, are permitted, under certain circumstances,
violate their vows of celibacy." After quoting, til)°,
this subject, from " Dens' Theology," the writer tbo
concludes :—" We hope—and know nothing to the ecf;
trary—the three priests at Douglas are as pure as eon
yet we tremtle for the temptation of flesh and blocy,
especially where, a 3 we have shown, one priest can s'_!t
solve another. Very few wolves can be found to
.rct's,
quietly in the same told with lambs." The three pries. 4
are the Revs,. James Carr, John Hawkesivortbi 8'

WESTERN CIRCUIT.—WINCHESTER, JULY 15.
(Before Mr. Justice omptou.)
CHARGE OF POISONING.

Harriet PAssinghain, 19, a domestic servant, was
indicted for feloniously administering four grains
of a preparation of mercury to Maria Read, her
mistress, , with intent to kill and murder her, at
South Stoneham, on the Gth of March last.
Mr. Poulden prosecuted ; the prisoner was un-
defended.
The evidence showed that she was a servant in
the house for the previous twelve month.. On the
6th of March Mrs. Read had some purter for her
dinner from a pint bottle, only a portion was
drunk, the remainder being removed from the
table by the prisoner. At supper time she was de-
sired to bring the remainder, which she did, and
placed it on the table. Mrs. Read poured out a
portion into a glass and drank of t ; but immedi-
ately found that it tasted very disagreeable. The
prisoner was called, and asked what she had put
into the porter ? and she said " Nothing." But on
Mrs. Read saying, "You must have put something,"
she said she had poured the b om of another bot-
tle into it. Mrs. Read adr.-d her why she had
done so, as she was not in the habit of doing it, and
the prisoner made no answer. She was told to

take it away, and asked to taste it. She appeared
to taste it, and then said it was very nasty. She
removdd both the glass and bottle horn the room,
but Mrs. Read recollecting that there was some
por,,ter 1.-ft in the bottle, her daughter desired that
to be brought in. The prisoner brought it back
again, saying she had thrown what .was in the
glasi under the grate.. Mrs. Read rapidly got
worse, and felt a great burning in her throat and
chest, with pain and sickness. Mr. Osborn, a
surgeon, was sent fa- and Mrs. Read was ill fora
long time. It was afterwards found that a bottle
containin4 Ittrg mixture and labelled "Poison,"
had been left in Miss Read'sbedroorn. This mixture
consisted of about 14 drachm of. corrosive subli-
mate, with sufficient hydrochloric acid to dissolve
it, and water, but that it had been taken away,
and Mr. Osborn asked the prisoner what sbe
had put in the porter, and she said "some
vitriol, which she had to clean the copper," and
being further quesioned why she did it, she said
Mr.=. Read was " so fidgetty and particula-." When
before the magistrates, she said she was sorry she
had done it, and should not if she had not been
persuaded to do so.

The Judge having summed up; left it to the'jury
;o consider their verdict.

Tue Foreman asked if they were bound to return
a verdict of guilty or to acquit the prisoner, or
whether they could qualify their verdict I
His Lordship said they mu,t either find her
guilty of administering with intent to murder or
acquit.

The jury then acquitted her,
His Lordship observing that there was a defect
in the law, which did not allow of a variation of
count as to the intention.

MARKET NEW S.— (This Day.)

CORN EXCHANGE.

The quantity of English wheat arrived fresh up to-day,
was very moderate, but we had several of Monday's unsold
samples on offer. There were very few buyers in attend-
ance, and all kinds of wheat of home produce was very
dull, at Monday's decline in the quotations.
Nearly 10,000 quarters of foreign wheat have come in
this week, and the show of samples was rather extensive.
The trade ruled heavy, and prices were almost nominal.
There was a fair inquiry for barley and malt at full cur-
.
reams.
We were but moderately supplied with oats. Good
sound qualities moved off steadily, at full currencies, but
damp parcels met a dull inquiry.
Both beans and peas were in request at full quotations.
Indian corn was in request and rather dearer.
The flour trade ruled heavy at Monday's decline.

METROPOLITAN CATTLE MARKET.
We bad a fair supply of beasts here to-day, chiefly the
refuse of Monday. Fur all breeds the demand was in a
sluggish state, but we have no change to notice in the quo-
tations. The show of sheep was moderate, and the mutton
trade ruled inactive, at Monday's currency. There was a
slight improvement in the lamb trade, at full prices.
Calves were in good supply, and sluggish request at Mon-
day's deCline in value. Pigs and milch cows commanded
very little attention.

COLONIAL.
TILL—The market continues very quiet, but holders are
firm, and all qualities command fully former prices. Com-
mon congous are at lid. per lb. with full proinp,.
Smut.—Only a very slight increase in the demand has
taken place for home consumption, notwithstanding the
late decline in prices. The quantity sold has been ex-
tremely limited, at a further decline upon former values.
In the refined market, prices have again given way.
Brown lumps have declined to 665., and super goods rea-
lise 675. to 70s. per cwt.
COPPEE.—There is a very limited enquiry for all quali-
with a downward tendency in prices, which have generally
sympathised with the receding value of ad descriptions of
colonial produce. Plantation Ceylon, Jamaica, and other
descriptions, are at rather lower quotations.
RIC E.-11olders are rather firm, but very little business
has been transacted, and previous rates are with difficulty
sustained.
SPIC Es.—Pepper, pimento, and ginger, have fully main-
tained themselves, but other descriptions ruled at a slight
reduction in price:.
Bug. —There is very little business doing, and prices
show no material variation.
SALTPETRE.—The present high rates demanded by
holders have impeded business to a considerable extent.
Holders, however, are very firm.
TALLOW.—There has been rather more activity in the
market., but prices show a slight decline. P.Y.C., on the
spot, 57s to 57s 6d ; last threw months, 56s 9d per cwt.
The present rates, compared with those current at about
the same time last year, show an advance of about 5s 6d
per cwt.
GREEN FRUIT.—West India pine apples sell well, the
moderate price assisting consumption. A. portion of two
cargoes sold by Keeling and Hunt at public sale, realised
prices equal to those obtained last week. The stock of
lemons having increased, prices are lower. Barcelona nuts
