?Alt 111 JULY la.—Letters from Conunercy men-
tion, that the gaming table at Verdun was shut
upon the ad instant, to the great joy of the Public
Funltionaries and the citizens. On the evening that
this took place, while all well-intentioned people
were applauding, in the bosoms of their families,
this paternal aft of the Government, some turbulent
spirits, as yet unknown, betrayed their joy, of rather
their dissatisfaction, by breaking the windows of
the house where the bank was held.
Rows, JULY s .—The people of the States of his
Holiness, after having seen the Fiench army of
Naples, and all the reinforcements which were sent
to it, pass through their territory, now see a pert
of these troops treading back their steps, in order
to guard the ports of the Pontiff. About the mid.
die of the present month, different French and Its.
Tian Corps have arrived at Rome from the kingdom
of Naples, and are gone to occupy Civita Vecchia,
and the other points on the Western coast of the
Papal State, in order to prevent the approach of
English and Russian vessels. The Eastern coast of
the State of the Church has been also occupied
within the last month by French and Italian troops.
They form at present the garrisons of Ancona, and
of all the Papal harbours on the Adriatic. Betides
the French and Italian corps which have newly
'marched by the way of Rome to the neighbouring
coasts, other corps of the same nations also pm
through this capital, coming in like manner from
the Neapolitan frontiers. It is said that these last
will repair to Leghorn.
Rome itself, since the passing of these troops has
ceased, has no longer foreign troops within her
and continues to enjoy complete tranquillity.
Bur there took place, last month, in this capital,
a disagreeable incident, which, but for the firm.
ness displayed on the occasion, by the Holy See,
might have disturbed its repose, and been at.
tended with the most fatal consequences to the
whole State. On the ph tilt. a nun, 28 years of
age, a butcher by profession, having met two
Frenchmen in the street, without any provocation'
on their part, laid hold of a knife from the neigh.
barring shambles, and stabbed one of them behind.
This attempt excited a ‘onsiderable uersar among
the people, end appeared to the Government deserv.
ing of exemplary punishment. The culprit was
therefore immediately arrested, tried by martial
law, and executed on the gth, in the square of St.
Angelo.

queen to make a larealh, and. to prepare for the
assault. The Comm:lo3m of the fortress, even
while persisting in the resolution to defend him.l
'self to the last evremi,v, furnished a visible
proof that he despaired of maintaining it muchl
longee against the efforts ni the besiegers : he has'
einrired and transported for Sicily the most vs.)
luableartiries that were to be found in the place.
In the mean time, die fire Of Gaeta has again de.
prived the French of an Officer of distinguished
bravery and talents, in the person of M. De Val-
leiongue, an Officer of Engineers, who, having
been wounded in the head by a shell thrown from
the fortress, died a few hours after, to the great
regret of the whale army. On the 6th of last
month, in consequence of a general sortie by the
garrison, both parties were engaged in more than
one place in the environs' of Gaeta, and most
seriously on the neighbouring coast. A corps of '
English, lately disembarked sn the port of the for.
• tress, took a share in this sortie, which was besides
seconded by the British vessels of war, with which
Sir Sidney Smith, having arrived from Gibraltar
in theselatitodes, has beencruiting for some weeks.
However, this sortie, though it did some injury
to the besiegers, turned out4o.the disidvantsge of
the. besieged. It was effet`ted in three columns, of
which the Sm, partly comoused'of English, and
partly of Neapolitans, was convoyed Isy ka, and
pOsffed on to the distance of silt-miles Foos Gas.
ta. ' Them the chief part of thtsiletseluirent seized
upon the little fart of St. Andre, situated on the
great road to Naples, and spiked the cannon ; but
were speedily attacked by a French Corps, who
made prisoners five English and between 8o and
too Neapolitans. The remainder of this detach-
ment were equally unable to resist the force which
was opposed to them, and were obliged to retire in
haste to the mountains, in order to regain the place.
The other two columns, under the command of the
Prince of Hesse Philipstahl himself, confined them.
selves to an attack of the works erected by , the
French, under the walls of the fortress, and retired
after a slight skirmish. • v-
. Germ*, itri.v a.--IDne hundred and fifty Nea-
politan Galley-slaves revolted against the guard,
as they were coming out of Parma. They killed
Wee of them, seized their arms, and made off to-
wards the Coast; in hopes of finding vessels. They
are, however, closely pursued, and measures have
beet] so well taken, that there is reason tie taped
not one of them will escape. a
