COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE, bey Rey ks. ‘The ‘steamship Edinburg, Captatn Brooks, from Liver" pool om the 24, via Queenstown on the $d inst., arrived at this port last evening. She brings $600,000 in apecie, Dut ber advices are anticipated. The reception of our files enables us to give some interesting dotails later than previously received. ‘The rumored departure of the French fleet from Gacta bas been contradicted. It is now stated that a Russian frigate, fully armed, has anchored off Gasta, and suspicion ‘8 of bourse awakened that this event is the first symp- the federal govert ment, independentiy of rights eoane t- | only is garrisoped, and the requisition which the com- negoti@ ted at Paris, n of the rumored intention of Russia to supply tho ection France fsabout to withdraw. It seems, how- somewhat premature to draw any decided inference the bare fact, as at presont stated. . It is said that Queen of Naples has left Gaota in consequence of tho roach of her confinement. che Paris correspondent of the London Star says:— The acrot ofthe maintenance of the French fleet before Gaeta ip ‘ht to be discovered in the ay ance of & Russian vessel, well armed and equipped, alongside of the French ships, which confirms announcement made some time in the chancelleries of tho various Russian ombeanio, Abas should the Emperor Napoleon withdraw his protection the Em Alexander would take bis place, The arrival of Russian ship bas created a sin- gular sensation hergeeomathing. botrioee. hope and fear; ‘and, moreover, a sudden enlightenment as to the subject of the secret conferences of Warsay. ‘Acoording to the Puris correspondent of the Indepen- dance Belge, Lord John Russell has sought to learn the definitive inten \iona of the Fronch government as to the siege of Gacta, expressing the desire of the English Cabinet to announ < the cessation of French intervention in the affairs of Napi:s at the opening of Parliament, and alluding to the bad «ect which the absence from the Queen's speech of a {crthal declaration that a complote understanding exists betwoon the two governments re- specting the Italian question, must produce. The Em- peror, according to the same authority, replied that it ‘would be difficult to announce a complete understanding, seeing that England wishod for the unity of Italy, while Franoe still remained faithful to the idea of a federation. However, before the opening of Parliament, Vice Admiral Lebarbier de Tinan should receive his orders of depar- ture, and Francis IJ. should have three weeks’ notice before they were executed. This would lead into the month of Maroh; ‘‘and if,” says the Independance, ‘Gaeta, as some think, can resist for a month, they would im this way galn the month of April—that is to say, the period at which is expected the exocution of the projects openly announced by Garibald!, and a general conflagration in Italy, from which the King of Naples hopes to derive some benofit.”” * ‘Tho Correspondance Bullier circulates ,on New Year's ‘eve, 8 correspondence from London, according to which Lord Oowley, having pressed M. Thouvenel to recall the French flest from Gacta, was asked whether he would De reeponsible for the consequences, and would under- take to prevent tho Northern Powers from interfering. The correspondence goes on to affirm that the English government, being placed in. this fix, was fain to Sobalt the whole question to the “Wisdom of Napoleon I'1.”’ The Emperor received the diplomatic corps at the Tulle- ries on New Year's day. To Lord Cowley, who, in tho name of the diplomatic corps, offered the customary con- gratulations, his Majcsty is said to haye replied:— I thank you for the wishes which you have expressed to me. [regard the future with confidence, being con- vinoed that the friendiy understanding between the Powers will maintain peace. To the President of tho Corps Legislatif the Emperor is faid to have replied :— I have always reckoned on the conourrence of the Legislattf. ‘The Ost Deutsche Post, of Vienna, has the following :— The second atticle of the Comstitutionnedl of Paris, on Austria and the Venetian question, is much more mo- nacing than the extract sent by tolegraph caused us to +uppose, Something is evidently being again got up in Franoe, We will only for the present cail attenti three remarkable points in the article:—The first declaration that France has remaincd faithful to the ditions of Villafranea, dnd that not ber fait if the two uther contracting partics reciprocally violated thom, We know not, however, in what mannor Austria has violated the treaty of Villafranca, but we will pro- babiy learn hereafter. As to the passage which dec! wes that France cannot permit the Austrians to make an of- fensive return in Italy, because to do so would be to al low the Avstrian advanced poste to be establizhed at only two days’ march from Grenuble, we will observe that a more stupid excuse has rarely been invented. Our read- ers know that the Prussian advanced posts are not two days’ march from numerous French towns. According to that principle, France ought to transform into a desore ‘all the ® distance of some hun ‘reds of be within two days’ march froma French town. In the third , we call atteation to the passage which says that frontier of Germany is on the Is0070, and that all that exists beyond concerns only Austrian ambition. ‘We think that these three passages sullice to characterize what is proparing at Paris, The Cologne Gazetéc states that in the Schleswick-Hol- ptein affair the Danish government bas addressed a note to the Borlin Cabinet, setting forth that it is ready to accord to the States of Holstein a deliberative voice im ‘the preparation of the laws common to the whole monarchy, but under the condition that the questions’ on which the States and the Supreme Danish Council may not be able to agree shall cease to be treated as ‘common’? affairs, and shall become special for Holstein on the one hand, aod for Denmatk and Schleswick on the othor. ‘The same journal adds that the Danish government is ready to promise an amnesty #0 extensive that it may comprise the persona who were condemned for participa- tion im the inaurrection of 1848. ‘The clerical party is very dispatisied with the Emperor of Austria for granting liberty of conscience to his sub jects. “The circulation of the last prociamation addressed by Francis 11. to Uke Neapolitans has been prohibited, al- though there were manifestations here. Tho reactionary movements in the Abbruazia are om tho increase; the Dand of resctionists have been reinforced by large num bers of Neapolitan solciers.

But if the North, armed as it now ig in a righteous cause, should desire to coorce the South, why is Mr. Buchanan to throw the whole weight of his bs yoo in support of the Souih, and to meet treason- able separation more than half way. We believe that it is his duty to ensoree the existing law, to follow the ad- vice of constitutional aud responsible advisers, such as Genoral Scott and General Cuss, and not to allopt that petty, contemptible and unworthy policy of partisanship which, though it may conveniently enable him to ride over a ditucuity, will be fatal to the permanency of the Union an@ to that national power and influence which on ry have been the pride and boast of te Alerican people. Amorican Slavery. (From the London Horald, Jaa. 1.] On Saturday evening, Miss Surah P. Remond, a lady of color, delivered a lecture on American Slavery, in Brigh- ton street chapel, Edinburg—Andrew Fyfe, Eaq., in the chair. She was accompanied to tho platform by ‘Mr. W. Chambers, Rev. Mr. Kirk, and Miss Liihe and Miss Wig- ham, secretaries to the La:lies’ Auti-siavery Society. The lecture consisted chiefly of a review of the prosent state of matters in America, and sho expresset bor belief that the prospects of the slave were never ina more hopefal state than at present. Mr. W. Chambers moved a redo- lution to the effect that the meeting regarded with horror the syetem of Americin slivery, and warmly sympa- thized with the struggle now going on, and, in support- ing it, gave an interesting account of his personal o»s0r- vation of the horrors of very. and expressed his bolief that the slavery question would not be settled without bloodshed.

Mr. Lillie seconded the resolution. Both resolutions were agreed to, und, after a vote of thanks to the Chairman, the meeting separated. =~ Fashions for J: {From Le Foliet.] ‘The season for grand balls has not yet commenced, but we have already observed sume varicties in dinner aud evening dresses.

On the return of the commission Miramon, Marquez, Lagarde and others compromised with them, lost no time in withdrawing from the scene they have disgraced for euch a length of time, and that night they all loft the city or hid themselves.

Early on tho morning of tho 25th the foroos of Aurelia no entered and took possession of the city gatos, amd early in the day the constitutional forces commenced pouring in. Gen.

Notwithstanding the streets were filled with troops, amongst whom were largo numbers of guer- rulerce, but one circumstance occurred tw give cause for regret, and this would not have have happened had not the victim perperated a most unjustifable murder.

Newly half way up the skirt is @ deep plaitwg of velvet, edgod with plush. The body is perfectly plutn, except for the buttons, by which it is fastened. The skirt is also but toned down the front. The cufls are of velvet, odged with plush. Black taffotas, with small bouquets, are decidedly the fashion this winter. The plain, brilliant taffotas, with plan or flounced skirts, and the moire antique, are no jongor the “mode.” Dark colors for bonnets, as woll as dresses, are more and more in favor for dress visits. Plush is much used for paletots and buruous, and is preferred to velvet on account of its novelty. Dresses ‘ore also trimmed with plush, even when made of volvet, if of a sombre color, and for pogiiges. Morning dresses of white plush, lined with blue or gold color, are very elegaut and becoming. It has been a matter of surprise that plush has not oeen more adopted for bonnets sad their sorpamunts; but it will not be long befvre we sve this beautiful material employed for these purposes. ‘Some visiting dresses are trimmed with plas Swansdown and ermine are beth in favor for trim- mings for sorties de bal, and the platines which are sbrown over the shoulders for entering the theawe or evening parties in full dress, Gray astracan is vory much niaed aa trimming for paletots, forming a collar, cr small pereline and cuits, a2d also vccasionally round the bottom.
