Hostilities still continue to be waged between

Tue Fitaxcir EXV.ITION.—Affairs in France
Continue tranquil. The expidition in aid of Pope
Pius, sailed on the 22d alt., and arrived at Cevi

main at Gaeta until the temper of his revolted
subjects is first ascertained.
SARDINI A
The Sardinian Goverment have rejected the
terms offered by Austria,and the twogoverments
are again at issue. The Piedmontese Ministers
have given fresh directions to the War Depart
ment to prepare for the immediate resumption
of hostilities.
AUSTRIA AND HUNGARY
Germany is torn by dissentions. The account
from Hungary speaks of fresh disasters to the
army of the Imperialist. The accounts how
ever are of a conflicting character.
NAPLES AND SICILY.
The war between these two powers still con
tinues. The advantages are all on the side of
Naples. In addition to Catania, Soto has sur
rendered to the Neapolitan troops. Palermo
has also prepared to capitulate.
THE MARKETS.
The Hibernia brings Liverpool dates down to
the 28th ult. Trade in Liverpool has been very
dull. The London Money Market is represen
ted as being steady. Consols closed at 92 to 91h,
The French funds are firm.
llcconsrrFF9.—ln Breadstuffs the market has
been dull. Wheat has declined 2d to 3d. Flour
declined tid to 9d. We give the following quo
tations: Western Canal Flour, 23s to 23 6,1;
Philadelphia and Baltimore brands 23s to 23 Gd.
Fnrace and the Pope.
By telegraphic despatches of foreign news re
teived at Philadelphia, on the 4th inst., bringing
dates from Liverpool to the 21st ult., inclusive,
we learn that the French government has " re
solved upon the extreme measure of an armed
intervention to reinstate rope Pius IX in
his temporal sovereignty at Rome ;" and that
" a lorce adequate in number to the emergency,
iris already been embarked and sailed for Civ i
ts Vecchia." This is news indeed.
Whatever comes to America fre;n the once
renowned Rome, is read and heard with the
liveliest interest; and the above announcement
will doubtless, awaken a general anxiety as to
the result of this step on the part of France.
The aspiration of every republican is, that that
country may be restored, without interruption,
1..) its ancient freedom and renown. We believe
that her people have the unaffected sympathies
of this nation, for we naturally rejoice at what
ever promises liberty to Europe.
The accession of Pope Pius IX as temporal
and spiritual ruler of the Roman states and
church, promised much to universal liberty. By
personal concessions on reaching the throne,
and the surrender into the hands of his subjects
of many of his prerogatives, he was regarded
as the friend of popular rights. He gave free
slum to the Press, and because its patron ; he in
yearned learning, and granted privileges to in
dividual and corporate enterprise ; he gave them
a constitution, and promised largely in favor of
national freedom. But they asked more they
asked for the surrender of the temporal sever
ignty into their hands. Catching the spirit of
the French republicans they rose in strength,
and clamarously demanded a democratic govern
ment. The Pope and his Cardinals of the Vati
can, imagining that these popular outbreaks
arose from over indulgence and concession, drew
the reins of state more firmly on the refracti
on=. The potency, however, of the popular
voice alarmed his Holiness, and with some dif
lenity he fled to, and found an assylum in Gaeta,
where he still remains. Italy is now a repub
lic !
That Republican France, —just emerging from
a long reign of tyrants,—should officially take
measures to re-establish a Kingdom and monar
chy over a people who, following their example
thrust them firmly aside, seems strange indeed.
We have no sort of objection to the Pope's
holding his spiritual sovereignty over the Ro
man church, and remaining at Rome, in person,
to superintend its affairs; but we cannot see
what good can result to either Europe or popu
lar rights, by his reinstatement to the tripple
crown.—tVuahengton Commonwealth.
High Handed Outrage.
On Thursday evening, about 9 o'clock, at
Philadelphia, a young man, of rather genteel
appearance, drove up to the house of Mr. John
McCandless, and inquired for Mr. M. He was
invited in, taken up into the parlor, and engaged
in conversation about the purchase of a farm
near Gray's Ferry, respecting which Mr. Mc-
Candless had received a note through Blood's
dispatch on Monday last, and not liking the ap
pearance of the same, paid no attention to it.
The villain advised him to go along with him in
his carriage to the Ferry, on Thursday evening,
and make the arrangement for the property,
which he refused as he was lame, and it was
too late, where upon the man rose from his seat,
pulled a dirk from his pocket and stabbed him
several times in the face, neck, arms, legs and
sides, and then ran clown stairs, jumped in his
vehicle, and drove away at the top of his horse's
speed. Mr. McC. is strongly impressed with
the idea that the assassin was instigated by
another individual to take his life. The indi
vidual referred to once paid his addresses to
Mrs. McCandless, when the parties all lived in
Ireland, and since they came to this country, he
has annoyed Mrs. McC., and sent her a letter
within the last few months.
