The alterations which have been made In the
Ecclesias tica Titles Assumption Bill do not appear
to have abated the hostility to it Of the Irish priest
hood. On the contrary, those alterations are
regarded as concessions made by fear, and the
opinion seems to be that by a course Of energetic
action and vehement outcry, the Government may
be either forced to abandon the bill, altogether,
finally to leave office.
The Archbishop of Tuam, in another fiery letter
to Lord John Russell, declares that :" no mitiga-
ton, short Of utter extinction, will satisfy the
Catholic people of Ireland" That is, the bill,
which has now been cut down to single clause,
must be abandoned altogether. This is the pre-
vailing sentiment of the Catholics throughout the
United Kingdom.
The House Of Commons adjourned for want Of a
notice had been given by Lord John Russell that
that he would introduce his measure relative to the
disabilities of the Jews.

ITALY ~
A letter from Rome, in the Opimione, Of Turin,
of the 7th ult, announces the occupation Of Terni
by the Austrians, and adds that ten thousand Aus
TRANS are expected at Peruga, Assist, Foligno,
and other places in that quarter. At the same
time the King Of Naples is sending troops towards
the frontiers Of his territory. Hence the writer is
led to conclude that the Austrans and Neapolitans
are going to form continuous military line.
The Times correspondent, in letter from Wen.
ia, says" Italy is in very troublesome-indeed
| | may say alarming state. The four Papal Lega-
tons may be considered as in formal state OF
| siege. No one is allowed to move about in the
open country without carte de surete. Every
carte must have number, and is to be examined by
| the gensdarmes as it passes.
Small detachments of Austrian soldiers are
posted in the little towns and villages From 1000
10 5000 scudi are offered for the head Of Passatore
the leader and from $50 to 500 for the others,
cording to their importance. Another general out
break in Italy feared here, and those In office de-
youtly pray that it may not take place until the
German question is settled"
The weekly report of the Bank presents CON-
mercial affairs in an unfavorable light. The ac-
counts from the agricultural districts satisfac-
tory. The President was burnt in efiigy at Lille
lately. All hopes Of fusion between the branches
Of the Bourbon family are at an end.
The celebration of the carnival has also exer-
cised depressing influence upon the commercial
prosperity Of the capital. The manufacturers and
wholesale merchants complain that, with the ex-
ception Of few English, there are no foreigners in
the city.
The accounts from the agricultural districts, how
ever, are more favorable; for it appears that the
large stocks Of wheat, formerly held at "Beauce, !
are nearly exhausted, and that the recent large
ports to England induced the farmers to look fol
higher prices.
Poris-Geh. Exelmans has been raised to the
rank Of Marshal Of France. The President ha.
reviewed several Of the regiments leaving Paris
and has issued orders that at these reviews no cries
whatever shall be uttered.
In the departments, in all the towns, the Social
lists have been attempting to make demonstrations
| but without success.
