The War at Rome.-sThe latest authentic ntelh-
gence leaves Rome alil nncaptured. The French
had made renewed overtures 70 the Romans, but
the latter had refused TO accept them. Tie city is
said 20 have sustained, after the refusal Of the
French overtures, a twenty hours attack, without
any breach being effected. Cen Oudnot is said
to have used every means in his power TO induce
the Triumyirate 70 capitulate.
The London Times Of June %, from its cOrre-
spondent dated Cyita Vecchia, 10th inst, with
the latest news from Rome and the army, upto the
evening Of the previous day, says On the 18th
negotiations were again attempted 70 be opened by
Gen. OndinOt, but they failed, in the same manner
and upon the same grounds as before. Cen Ondi-
not having commanded the city 10 surrender,
which was met by peTempory refusal, he com
menced vigorous attack on the 18th. The battle
ries played upon the bastions tweEylour hours in
eessanty, and no perceptbe breach was effected
up 10 the latest period our intelligence from the
camp came to- A reinforcement of troops and
guns from Toulon was being landed at Civila Nec-
CHA, on the l4ih.''
A letter from Rome, dated the 9th, states the
measures Of defence on the one hand, and those Of
attack on the other, being carried on with I'M
RENTING zeal in and around that unfortunate city,
and the destruction Of property rendered necessary
by them is absolutely frightful, MOI only have
charming villas and cdSiRi in tile neighbOrhOOd of
the city walls or gates been set on fire and blown
up during the last few days. but the interior of The
town now commences TO suffer from the unsparng
orders OF the military engineers, and this morning
the magnificent Theatre Of Apollo, with the ada
cent houses bordering on the I1ber, from the bridge
of ST. Angelo to the Areodi ParmO are 70 be sacri-
feed and demolished, as forming dangerous point
for attacking the fortress Of ST. Angelo case the
enemy should succeed in effecting an entry within
the CITY walls The villas Of OuattrO VENT and
Panf Doria, the Porto San Pancrazio, have
taught the Romans, by sad experience, what tre
mendOns sacrifice Of blood becomes necessary TO
drive hostile force out Of such suburban strong
holds, when once they have gained admittance
into them. The Roman prisoners are sent TO Civita
Vecohia, and embarked for Corsica.
The French Government made known, on the
10Th inst, that with the view of preventing further
| bloodshed, Gen Oudinot has addressed the fol-
lowing letter to the President Of the National
HrADquARrERs, Villa Paufli, June r. P. NJ.
