Ts D. v—iserstag, As. 0e..........Aftram‘ Stu Sta. Tascsaow—Notch, IL ma.........Atsursece. Th. M. LONDON, MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 29. Tea tuts for medieval revivals is not confined to our High Church party, or to religions affairs. The Empress of the Foams inclines that way in regard to her pleasures, es the EMPIROR does in his most serious business. Sensible men and feeling women, both in France and England, have seen with regret the attempts of the Etienne to 'strode.* into her new 'vestry one of the worst barbarisms of the old— the ball•fight. Such romans as the EMPEROR has, seems to take the turn (imprudent sad neprofitable) of reproducing the trad►tional woys of the old sove reigns of Fresco. The organisation of the cease, when the Exresose hunts, is manifestly in tended to put people in mind of Hard IY. ; the Regency measure was professedly based on pro. Indents of the old monarchy ; end every year of the present reign puts further out of eight its original justification—the protegee of a popular ehoios--and mom conspicuously refers to and mimics ancient times. In corroboration of this method, the Hwang now introduces the barbaric spectacle of the bull fight. She will find that in this she haa goes a step too far. Every child outside of Spain wonders, in reading of bull fights, how anybody an bear such a eight, and will hardly believe that ladies can endure it; and the explanation of the fact that Spanish ladies do endore it always is, that historical association eon aerates it. The invariable observation in seek a ease is, that nobody in Spain or elsewhere would think of originating such a sport in our day; but that it still exists in Spain became all nations dislike parting with traces of the ancient time. The mouse was the sum that we offered five-and-twenty years ago to Americans for the grotesque observances of our borough festivals, before all that clue of mummeries were swept away by the Municipal Reform aseasurs. To introduce seek shows into American sides now would Nino mom absurd than it is to bring the bull-fight across the Pyrenees into Frame, while it would be free from the reproach of cruelty. The advertisement of the expwimeat at St. Esprit is not calculated to enlist the sympathies oldie gayest and most pleasure-loving of the French people. "Twelve magnificent bulls from Navarre are to be killed." The Etienne and bee ladies might with their own buds make up "brilliant sad rich masa*" for the animal., and promise the flesh, when their torture wm over, to the poor of Bayonne:—.ll this and more will not naturalise tall-fights in France. Oa the great day at St. Esprit (a suburb of Bayonne) the thief fell fiat, in spite of the presence of crowds of Spaniards and of the Eamon and EMPRESS, and the careful observance of Spanish etiquette is every particular. The EMPRESS amused the credit of consigning the poor animals to the torture, by throwing down the golden key which was @apposed to lock up the bulls. Five of the animals were killed, sad the chief matador nearly shared their fate. He was carried out severely injured, and we do not believe that any French person present enjoyed seeing him trodden on and torn by the salsa be had challenged. The people hissed, and sobbed the boll-fighters, and the polio* and soldiery were compelled to interfere, and disperse the assem blage. More than that--some of the people lay is wait for the ball-fighters and their animals at night. to fares away the men and kill the animals. It is clear that the ball fight will never obtain a footing in Framer. Canaot florae. of France take a hist, and inter pret his position and prospects by natural signs of the times like these P The world rolls on, and never goes beck ; and all things in the world change-- wren races of animals, and much more men and nations. It is essential to the fortunes of the Imperial family that they should bur in mind the auditions of the time in which they live, and sat impose ea a modern generation 'who& Imitated hem the old seeturies. The Moms has amused herself with tooling the female world by reviving old barbarisms at dress—the hoop, the tight lasing, the ahead weight and compass of clothing, and its bar baric =pus.. The Burma has out the glitter of antique menifiernos over the dark parts of his policy which it was needful to hide. The Wises has in dulged her whims and love of sport as a wayward beauty on a throne might be expected to do; and the Harmon has laid hands on every method he could devise for imposing on the imagination and national pride of his people, end investing himself in the eyes at foreign nations with the dignity derived tram hir torioal association. But it is all as thoroughly m ammal with the spirit and the needs of Frame at the preset day as the ball fights with the national festival taste. In the spirit of the despotic middle ages the Bit. 71101 has stretelied out big head for the crows, and pat it on hie owe heed. He kee tried to revert to the °eateries when there wee no prow, sad comment on pablie affeire was impossible. He ham striven to keep his @abject!, uninformed on all contemporary topics but such as he chose to dispense to thew i an intimm who were too inquiring, too outspoken, and too self. willed for his scheme, he banished in the tree antique fashion—without trial, and at hie 'emetics plate/we. He has taken upon him to mows everybody's affair, and he builds and beautifies, to maks up for meddling and coercion. His people may not have rights and liberties; bat they have more architectural reagnitl mace, more plapdaye and fetes, than they ever bad before. Statesmen and patriots rot In the swamps of Cayenne i but, on the other bead, the market•women are admitted to the cradle of the Priem Imperial. If all could go on as the Entreitoa plans, he himself and ell the world would forget his origin, and he would be in all eyes like one anointed with the coneeeration of antiquity I the Orinamme would wave over his bead, and the Napoleonic bees would hid. themselves in making the honey of the white lilies. Bet these things cannot be. The conditions of the times are cheap& and the old skim will no longer hold the Dew wine, however careful the pitching. In the std days the menarche of France ►uled by their &Bane* with the people against the soblem. This wee the meet, the source, end the substance of their power.

Poverty, 00 rOmeralal 'obtainment, and debt is every direction are teaching the Damon at thin sunset that mediaeval methods of royal munificence and ostentation cannot be tried with impunity when the representative institutions of a commercial age have ones been familiar. The wealth of our tams is not laid op in hoards, or invested in Jewels and plate and roeleaux, which loyal subjects an poor into the monarch's treasury. The wealth of our time is im plicated with commerce, and an organisation of credit which absolutely necessitates a retribution for all waste and pecuniary folly and wrong. Are not these signs and tokens sufficient to warn thepartwont Sovereign against an imitation of antique despotism which can never noosed P If not, there ia one more hint which may be whispered. Snob imitation is vulgar. The most perfect nooses could not, in this case, redeem such a method from vul garity. But emcees being impossible, the aping of antiquity will be satirised by the lowest of the canaille, as it is already mourned by all who have at heart the dignity as well as the progress of the great French nation. There is no saying what might have been done for France by a thoroughly able man— even despotic in a certain sense—who would have ruled in harmony with the conditions of the time. A sufficient illustration of the mischief of the opposite wares is seen in the existence of conspiracy, in the bottomlem gulf of alienation which yawns between the ruler and the nation, and In the universal expectation7of financial calamity near at hand. There are other things than bull fights which had better be given up as incompatible with the humour of Frame in the nineteenth century. THE EXPRB3B, MONDAY EVENING, SEPTEMBER 29, 1856. THE CORONATION FETES AT MOSCOW. (FROM OCR &MCI/A CORRESPONDENT.) MOSCOW, Sam, 19. We are gradually approaching the end of our vo luminous programme, and I an enure you that to those whose duty it has been to assist " at every pageant or festivity, the prospect is the reverse of disagreeable. The Russians, who have been enter tained in classes and sections, ars of course as fresh ea ever; but the strangers, great and small, who haw been hurried day and night from review to ball, from religious ceremonial to imperial banquet, look forward with unmitigated satiefectke to the time when the famous festivities of the Great Cur's coronation shall have become a "pleasure of memory," and nothing will remaia to be done save to get home as rapidly as possible, and recount, with all due traveller's amplifications, the wonders in which we have been spectators or putt cdpatore. It will be found, on looking back through the coronation festivities, that the feasting has been pretty generally divided between the church, the army, and the noblesse—the two latter terms being pretty well convertible, seeing that every noble ea pable of baring arms is an officer, and every officer ie a noble by virtue of his epaulettes. In the uni versal homage paid to the church by the highest and greatest in the land, may be found the recognition of the vast physical force of the mojik population, whose represent►tives the clergy are, the upper chases, as in almost every continental country, being rather lukewarm in the matter of religions ob servances. In the army is concentrated the whole machinery of secular government, end there fore it is hardly to be wondered at that on im portant ocoasions,thoe two great sections of the state should come in for the lion's share of the pageants, the dinners, the ball ,and the ceremonials. As for the commercial classes, so prominent and powerful in England, they are still kept somewhat in the back ground, although during the short reign of the pre sent Emperor their social position has already been considerably improved. At the coronation they had a place in the procealoo, and this week they had the honour of entertaining his Imperial Majesty in per son, together with all the officers of the guards who are now quartered is Moscow or its neighbour hood. The banquet, one of the most splendid and costly of the ooramation series, took place in the great riding-school, a building which is itself one of the most remarkable sights in this most re markable city. Its erection has been a necessity at once of the Russian climate and the Russian system; the one rendering out-door exercise impossible for a large portion of the year, the other making indis pensable the existence of a locality in which military evolutions may be carried on without interruption. Of upwards of twice the area of Westminster Hall, the great riding-school an aoommodste within its vast enclosure two complete regiments of mounted dragoons, who are thus enabled in the coldest day in winter to parade and go through their evolutions under cover and serenaded by an Italian climate. The late Emperor has often reviewed his favourite chevalier guards in the Moscow riding school, at a time when half an hour's exposure in the open air would have been certain death to man and hone. One of the greatest curiosities of this extraordinary building is its flat roof, built entirely of wood, and having no support but the external walls between which it stretches, a vast expanse, exciting the spectators' wonder as to the mechanical means by which it can be sustained Witbeet a single eeppoMinig eolOmn I believe the medial adopted has been to build it in anion, es we build the mainmasts of oar three deckers, and then to lay it on the walls se if it were a lid. For the banquet of the merchants to the Emperor and the army, the rent was expensively and tastefully decorated. At the upper end was a dais, covered with crimson cloth and decorated with the imperial insignia, and in geniously contrived military trophies, and upon it was placed a to►le laden with gold and silver plats, and decorated with magnificent vases in malachite and japer. This was for the Emperor, the Grand Dukes, the generals who had also the honour to be aidemde-amp to his Imperial Majesty, and such of the ambassadors a belonged to the noble pref..- sion of arms. Singularly enough, the ocasequence of this regulation was that the only ambassador who had the boor of dieing at the imperial table was Aali Pacha, who, being a googol in the Turkish army, was qualified to participate in this exclu sively military feast. The other ambassadors were present as spectators, bat the Turk alone was permitted to put hie feet under the imperial mahogany. The rest of the guests dined at forty eight long tables running parallel along the room, and offering sitting socommodation for nearly four thousand guests. Everything good oe rare in the way of eatables and drinkable, was present in the utmost profane, and it only wanted Mr. Bathe gliding silently amongst the guests, and the sten torian Higgs or Harker, imploring "Woos for die chair," to asks one fancy that the scene was the London Tavern swelled to gigantic proportions, the occasion some grand civic entertainment, and that Bialiopagas street, not the Hamlin Gardens, was the ketss a quo of a great prandial solemnity. " One touch of diner makes the whole world kin ;" Rondo field-marshals enjoy good things quite as well as London aldermea, and pale Circassian from the Caucasus are as critical jedgse of a glue of claret u the worshipful wards. of the Fishmongers' Com pany. In one particular, however, the banquet of the riding school was decidedly in advance of English public dinners. There were no long epochal Whore the oompany,or distract the "gentlemen of the press." No perspiring orator, " unaccustomed to pubis speak. {netted "taken entirely by surprine,"pouted f or h a lf an hour his sickening platitudes into disgusted ears, is der a discordant firs of hostile forks and spoons. Neither wss there any bothering or nonsensical list of toasts, but at intervals the Emperor rose and took wine with the gusts, the walls rang with one straw, hewn. does, memayllabie cheer from four thound manly voice, l e response, and in a moment every one was again seated and absorbed in the die main of the liquid luxuries of the feast. At se ek a moment. the com d'etil was the most striking that could possibly be imagined. I have before alluded to the great variety and splen dour of the Russian military uniforms. There is hardly a colour that has not been called into requisition to classify the various corps of the vast Russian arm!, nor has the wildest dream that ever entered the brain of military tailor remained unrealised. Scarlet and green, crimson and tithe, and mu pink and violet, might be reckoned amoaget the brilliant mikes, that surrounded the long tables in the riling schook and when the wearers rose shoultampouely to honour their Sove reign's toast, the glitter of gold and diver, and the gay variety of eoiour,at coos charmed. dazzled, and and almost confonaded the spectator. The galleries, were filled with the feels noblesse in grand toilette there was the Resat military music, and I may honestly say, in the recognised formula, that theses may retired " highly delighted with the evening's satertainment." Ores drawback then was, however, which must be mentioned. The givers of the feast, who had spent 200,000 rubles in its preparation, were not permitted to be partakers, but were ooneded by the gracious deportment of the Emperor, wko on retiring from the table 000deeoendingly thanked them for their hospitality, and complimented them on the taste and profeelon of the dinner. There was simultaneously another dinner for the soldiers, in the Kremlin Gardens, and it is satisfactory to be able to record that, unlike a recent similar entertainment in London, there was enough and to spare for all the guests. Each soldier had soup, two kinds of meat, pastry, and pain a discretion, and for the lobricatory process a bottle of sherry and a bottle of beer; and the despatch with which the liberal allowance of solids and fluids was demolished by the sun-burnt heroes of Sebastopol was one of the most amusing features in the whole day's festivities. The evening was devoted to a different but not less brilliant gala. For the fifth time since we arrived in Moscow, Lady °resents threw open her splendid saloons to the Russian noblesse, and it would be hard to find a more distinguished company than assembled at the ball of last evening. There were the Grand Duke Constantine and his beautiful wife, the Grand Duke Nicholas, the Grand Duchess Marie, and seve ral other members of the imperial family. There were princesses and countesses without number, and amongst the men might be recognised the most dis tinguished names in the military or diplomatic circles of Russia. Lady Granville danced with the Grand Duke, but his lordship was too busy all night making his guests comfortable to joie in the Terpeyohorean pastime. McAllister, Lord Stafford's piper, was in attendance in the ante-room in fall uniform, kilt, and philibeg, it being the intention of the noble host that in some interval of the dance the Russian guests should be made acquainted with the peculiar cha racteristics of Highland music. Bat the herdic soul of McAllister was impatient of restraint. For some moments he remained standing in the anteroom, beating time to an imaginary reel, and champing like a war horse impatient of the bit, until at last, what with the strains of rival music from the band, the intoxicating influence of a thousand wax lights reflected from the porcelain walls, and the bright forms of beauty that flitted to and fro before the gaze of the bewildered Highlander, flesh and blood could hold out no longer ; the inspired Gael shouldered his pipes, and, striking up a pibroch that would awaken the dead, marched, with measured tread, as if at the head of his elan, into the centre of the brilliant ring round which Grand Dukes and Duchesses were at that moment dancing the polonaise. Loud above the puny attempts of catgut and brass rose the wild martial note of the bagpipes. The musicians threw down their instruments in despair, the company ceased dancing, and McAllister was in a moment the centre of an admiring circle, completely absorbed in his pibroch, and beating time with as much accuracy and sangfroid as if unoonscione of the presence of the foremost of the world's lige. 1 watched the effect of this strange music on the unaccustomed ears of the Russians with great interest. They were at first evidently astounded, the officers putting their hands to their ears, and the ladies crossing their hands and gazing on the kilted /Bolus in mote surprise. But soon it became evident that there was a sympathy between the warlike race on the one aide and the warlike music on the other. Both ladies and gentle men chatted, smiled, and listened; and when, shortly after, the Grand Declaim Cinstantine, one of the most beautiful women in Ramis, retired to another apartment, she sent for McAllister, who played " The White Cooked." in a manner that elicited her impe rial highnesa's gracious oommendation. From that moment he became the fashion, and several time. in the mune of the evening he played again to admiring audiences. I may mention before parting with our musical Mend, that sines his arrival he has been quits a lion amongst the Russians, who follow him in crowds through the streets. There is mach spe culation amongst the manias as to his real character and functions, but the most prevailing impression is that he is the chief of all the foreign ambassadors, end that with a fastidious refinement of hauteur, he prefers walking, on the ground that none of the car riages are grand enough for his notions of personal, dignity. At about one o'clock the ball was at its climax, there being more than 600 persons present, and at half-past one the GrandDuks led Lady Granville,' and Lord Granville the Grand Daohess, to the impe rial supper room, where an entertainment, combining English abundance with continental elegance, was prepared for their imperial highnesses. Both here, and at the buffets foe the general company, every thing was served on massive plate t the wince and viands were of the highest character t and the Rog gen noblesse, no bad fudges in such matters, gave the best possible proof of their approval in the gusto with which they partook of the good things pro-1 vided. In fine, the ball was universally pronounced 1 to be un grand swam FRANCE. (MOM on OWN PARIS, SUNDAY EVINING.

The arrivals during the last two days have amoanted to 70,000 hectolitres. The evolutionary squadron still remains at Toulon. Two new shocks of earth quake have been experienced at Constantine and Setif. The Assemblie Nationak, :ramming up the opinions given by the Councils-General in their late session on the subject of protective duties, @aye: • The general wish, we must admit ' was not in favour of the maintenance of prohibitions . Almost everywhere it was declared that this regime, which may have been useful formerly, had served its time, and that there was reason to modify it. But in what spirit, and to what eztent, was it to be changed ? That was the difficult part of the question. Some demand that it shall be so modified as to pass imme diately, and almost without transition, to tree trade; others, and the greater number, without notelet forwar snob radical pretensions, weuld wish the mcdtfications to be to large as to give access in our markets to foreign goods ; they think that the time has come to put as end to a complete and absolute protection. Neither of these two opinions is that of France, represented by her conceals-general; she has taken • middle course, more reasonable and more practical. If she has separa ted from the too absolute doctrines of prohibition, she has not done so to approach free esebacige theories, or such and such • declaration which might lead to them at an early period Francs is neither for prohibition nor free exthecge—she is protectionist ; she ie willing to consent to efface from her customs' cods words which erpress the wants of another epoch, but she will not consent to have French manufac tures disarmed in pretence of foreign competition; she is determined to reserve the manned market for her native productions, and that is why she asks for duties which shell afford safficiant protest* a. Such is, in our opinion, the clear and promise sammary of the opinions of the councils metal. The Milos urges that since the new Customs Bill has now been promulgated, the power conferred on the executive by the law of 1814, to make changes by decree in the customs tariffs, subject to ratification by the legislature, ought to be abolished, and the faculty in question assigned over to the Chambers only. That it thinks is the first guarantee which persons engaged in trade and manufactures ought to obtain, and if the councils-general did not say so, it must have been that they wished to leave the initia , five to the government. SPAIN. --.-- (mom A smut. The Bourse receives with much coldness the nomination of M. fill is to the post of Minister of Finance. It will be recollected that he left the ministry under M. kladoz because he did not approve of any of the measures of the Pogrersista cabinet ; that he habil ways been in favour of the re establish men of the octroi sod consumption duties, which have been a constant source of disorder, and which cannot be revived without leading to insurrections in all the great towns. Moreover, M. Salaverria wishes to levy a tax on the Rente. All these things com bined have caused a fall in the Bourse.
