LONDON, MONDAY, AUGUST 24. 811 HISIM LtwaENCE has died a soldier's death at Lneknow. If we are to understand that the barrack in which the Europeans entrenched them selves at Cawnpore was taken before the reinforce ments arrived, there is too much reason to fear that Sir Htoll WUELLER also las fallen. In inch a crisis the loss of two such lenders is a greater mis fortune than the loss of a whole regiment. Apart from the disastrous loss of two such offleers, the news received on Friday evening by Electric Telegraph is of a chequered complexion—the _ _ bed predominating. it is in so far satisfactory that the revolt does not appear to be extending itself over a wider field. A few days ago we pointed out that—owing partly to the precautionary measure of disarming the suspected regimente, and partly to the better dht• position of the inhabitants—Bengal and Behar a► raained comparatively quiet; that—for the emu reasons—there had been no decidedly matins* movement in Scinde ; that, with the excertiiM of imitated movements at Anrungabad and Neg. pose, the Bombay and Madras Presidencies were perfletly tranquil ; that, in short, the active spirit of revolt was scanned to the district of Delhi, Bahama, Dude, some provinses of Bundelcund, and the territories of Holkar and Scindiah. In this polities desire nothing had been altered at the time of the most recent dispatches. As a counterpoise to this re-assuring intelligence we learn that bat little progress has been made in stemming the wend of mutiny and revolt within the dislodged districts. On the occasion above re tuned to we pointed out that the defensive poli ticos onspied by the Anglo-Indian forces in tie insurgent territory were Agra, the canton ment at Delhi, Meerut, Cawnpoee, Leeknow, end Aliehebed. The whole amount of the change that appose to have taken place in the position and pre meds of these strongholds, up to the dates of the hist despatches, may be thus summed up:—AUa ballad has been strongly garrisoned, and the insur gents before it seem to have been entirely dispersed; permanent communications have been established between AUahabad and Cawnpore ; the latter place has been re-taken from the insurgents ; and our Deeps were advancing to indict punishment on the 'element Rajah Of BtTORE. Cawnpore being in oar pose:sew, it would be an easy matter to re-open msmanications with Lucknow ; and the number of minor stations held by our soldiers between AlWA bed and Cawnpore, on the south-east, and Delhi and Meerut, on the north-west, would facilitate the re establishment of communications between these im portant positions. So far, good, it will be said. Not only had there been no extension of the dia. turbed districts, a way was being opened into the very heart of the country occupied by the insurgents. No doubt this had been done ; but were the English commanders in a condition to take advantage of the opening than made ? Every European soldier that could be spared from the defence of Calcutta had been forwarded to the interior es soon as he reached Fort William. The successful march upon Cawnpore had been the result of this prompt and energetic despatch. But in order to turn to account the advantages thus gained more troop were required, and the telegraphic message says :—" Tho Binsoom and Himalaya arrived at Calcutta with about 1,600 of the China forces, to proceed at once up country. Only 300 more troops were ex peered." For a time, then, the continuous supply of reinforcements to the revolted districts would be arrested—for no more troops could be spared from the Punisub. Our gallant countrymen, making head against the mutineers and the insurgent population of Oude and Rohilcund, would still be obliged to remain on the defensive against enormous odds. We have all faith in the powers of endurance of English soldiers ; but death would be doily diminishing their umbers. The sickly season was upon them ; a mere deadly enemy than man would keep thinning their ranks. True, the insurgents would gaffer as much, or even mere, bet their numbers were immensely greater. It is heart-reading to think of the situation dour heave ematrymes exposed in this unequal war. Their imlamitable resolution will mare India, by keeping the enemy at bay until reinforcements errive; bat they may save it by the sacrifice of all their lives. They daro not evacuate the territory ; far their retreat would be the Mesa for revolt in other districts. And months may now elapse before they ere eutasotly stroagthmed to adedt of their ammiag the 11611111i1IL In the meanwhile battle and dirty will be doing the week eihOeg them. Other loaders may bare to treed the dark path tbat bee already been trodden by Lswaxocx sad, it is too probable, by WIIEELM AM many a brave soldier—worthy to follow ruck edict.— whose mass will remain malosown except among the THE EXPIINA narrow elide of his tastily and Weds, may Is. bear his commandire company in death. The ges s don of our troops in the revolted dlstriets ream- Mee slarsaingly that of the Spartans at Thee mopyhe ; they look like men doomed to die, in order to g iro their country time to assemble her forces and put forth all her might. We dwell upon this awful reflection—we meek to realise to the imaginations of our readers—not for the purpose of exciting unavailing regrets or idle indignation. It is not enough to say that those men will be avenged—they must, if possible, be saved. Too much time has already been wasted. If we may believe the Pays, Ministers have nego tiated succetsfully with the Yachts of EGYPT for the transit of troops woes the Ltlunus of Suet. That ought to have been done the moment the news of the mutiny arrived. The first detachment of troops of all arms ought already to have crossed the Isth mus, whereas it is doubtful whether those who are to be sent out will even yet find means of conveyance ready for them at Suez. Again, in reply to those who urge the employment of gunboats and steamers on the Indian rivers,Lord PALMERSTON, with chime teristic levity, asserted, that though the Ganges and Indus make a great show on a map, they are not very available for water carriage. Of course they are not unless suitable vessels are employed. The gunboats despatched to China, whose great draught of water would have rendered them as unavailing in the Canton river as the gunboats sent to the Baltic were among the reefs of Finland, would be useless on the Indus or Ganges. But if orders had been I sent in proper time to Bombay and Moulmein, a fleet of gunboats calculated to navigate both rivers might by this time have been ready for inc. Had efforts been made at first to collect a fleet of steamers of light draught in India, the Indus and Ganges, with their affluents, might have been our great highways for the conveyance of men and military stores during the whole of the rainy lesson. How do matters actually I stand? Allahabad is accessible to the steamers which ply on the Ganges at all seasons; yet the latest accounts speak of soldiers forwarded bens &flares to Allahabad by bullock trains. Demo. dation of the apathy and inertness of ore. would, however, now be mere waste of time. The mistakes of the past are the necessary consequence of extraordinary duty devolving on very common- place men. They could not raise themselves to the exigencies of the occasion ; they could not devise unprecedented means of meeting an unprece dented danger. But now the necessity must be obvious even to them, and the people must bring into play the pressure from without to compel them to meet it. The bin of blood-guilti ness will rest or. the bead of every man who is slack in this great work. The greater part of our surviving countrymen iu the insurgent districts may yet be saved if proper exertion is made. The slaughtered women and babes can only be avenged —but those who survive may be rescued. But in order to achieve this great object every power that art and science have placed at the national disposal most be put forth, and that without a moment's de lay. Our cause is aholy one. We fight not merely to retrieve the honour of England—though that, too, is something—we fight to save the millions of India from the domination of es ruthless and anar chical a soldiery es we saved them from when we put down the Mahrattas and the l'indarees. The fleet &Won of the Parliament of 1857 has reached its close. Unusual!). brief as its deliberative term has been, the sense of wearies.' and exhaustion has long since marked its proceedings in a way neither to be controlled nor concealed. Conceived in anger and brought into existence amid shouts of pas donate exultation, the still youthful House of Com mons betrays already too many symptoms of being prematurely old. We do not advert to its garrulity, for that is the characteristic of both stages of childishness, and may be said to be the privileged sin of all periods of a Parlia ment's life; nor yet to the ease with which, amid the presages of storm and earthquake in our most important dependency, the fops and jainhnts of the Lower House have sauntered out of tows, because the atmosphere is " really unbeatable" sad the first days of partridge shooting are at hand. These are not novel affectations, and the consti tuencies that in March last chose coxcombs and "fools of quality" for representatives have certainly no right to complain. What seems to us more par. ticolarly deserving of attention is the evidence of _ . nervelessness and dimness of vision which the few acts worth mentioning as the result of much talking and voting painfully betray. Nobody expected that the new House of Commons would go off at score in the popular key. It had been summoned to deter mine no question of popular right; on the con trary, every attempt that was made before and after the dissolution to extort from the Minister a programme of future policy, was resolutely rejected by him ; and though in various important instances the people did for themselves what no leads: of eminence undertook to do for them, and made wise and honourable stipulations with their members before they elected them, it cannot be denied that to a great extent the bootless and absurd test of Bow ringism or anti-Bowringism was the only one put forward, and that scores of incompetent, idle, and ignorant men were returned at the hustings upon that already almost forgotten cry. Nobody could under such circumstances anticipate the exhibition of any effective zeal for improvement in our domestic polity, or any effervescent sympathy in favour of foreign free dom. But, considering the vaunted security of the PALMERSTON Cabinet in the newly-elected house of Commons, and the absence of party cohesion or unity in the Opposition, even in the House of Lords, it was not unreasonable to expect that the unchecked and unimpeded power thus placed in the hands of Ministers, of carrying useful measures, would hare been turned to more account, and that the array of legislative cyphers marshalled behind them, avowedly for no other purpose than to give them preponderant weight, would at least have been made good use of therefor. But whoever may hare been credulous enough to entertain such hopes, they have been doomed to disappointment. The ArronsEv- GENERAL is entitled to the praise of having kept awake during the four months' Session, and of having consequen tl y something like "work done" to show as the result of his diligence. How much more complete the fruit of his patch of the legislative field might have been, had he had the luck to hare had lees indolent and indifferent fellow-labourers, we leave those who have caught matches of the honour able and learned gentleman's solilo-groans to deter mine. lie has indeed succeeded in dragging through the stagnant and weedy waste of talk, the mutilated remains of his Divorce Dill and the ler* injured and consequently more valuable measure introduced at an earlier period of the Somion for the regulation of pecuniary hosts. But if the humble Alderman in the play in forced to Naha' mournfully, that amid all hie nmaielpal grandeur and power, something within tells him that after all he is bat a man "—so the modesty of Sir Itteman Brrnet.o. however hie enemies may disparage his claims to the possession, met oftentimes of late have prompted the wish that b• was nekleft to put* , who'. 14 1 11101 " colek = end that the insidePaseagers could be Map eat end walk up a pima el a hill.

Three year* mks* elaborate, will therein be found of the Merest ways in which a Parliament not re presenting the people, will pretend to desire to emancipate the Jews, and at the tame time will take out not to do so. Therein will be found how an assembly affecting to speak the most earnest wishes of the nation regarding the re-constitution of its army on a jester and more efficient system, can contrive to sit and snore out the in terval between the termination of one war and commencement of another, without taking one hour's waking thought about the national defames in case of need, or the redemption of the long overdue promise given in days of peril and disaster, of "justice to the army." Therein, too, posterity will read how a freshly elected body of representatives succeeded in stifling every preliminary inquiry into the notorious faults and deficiencies in the electoral system by which they had somehow been brought together, on the transparent pretext that it was not their duty to tell the Minister what the nation wanted, but to learn its wishes at some future day from him--as though a majority of the House of Commons tacitly desired to endorse the ill-omened phrase that "representative institutions were upon their trial," and being in the craven and cowed condition of culprits at the bar of courtly justice, had resolved to take advantage of the culprit's privilege to say nothing lest they should commit themselves. In the journals of 1837 will like wise be found traces of infinitely diver sified fiddle-!!addle concerning matters of prac tical moment—Church-rates, Harbours of Refuge, Abolition of Puffing Tolls on Shipping, Equalisa don of Poor Relief Assessment, &c.—about each and all of which no sign of business-like earnestness was manifested, and regarding which, therefore, nothing whatever was done. All these questions were notes riously ripe for legislation, yet no legislation took place, or was even seriously attempted. AU are left to stand over for a more convenient season—•a season which, u far u the overbalance of parties is concerned, it is clear is never likely to come. The truth is that to the over-weighting of the balance in favour of the Government of the day, the power of usefulness has for the time been sacrificed. The pendulum of opinion no longer moves, and the whole mechanism of legislation is virtually stopped. Parliamentary Government without a strong and vigorous Opposition of some sort, is a sham, a thing that cannot last, an illusion that nobody can desire to see prolonged. The convulsive vehemence of narrow-minded sections, whether belonging to one extreme of opinion or to the other, is no compensa tion for the want of a powerful and constant check upon the conduct of Administration—let us rather say, for the want of a permanent end well-regulated pressure upon the opting. of executive rule. Without such prostate its springs, however intrinsically • sound, lose their practical power, and become as 1 valveless as though they had never been, when duly bound sod est, capable of safely bearing the burthen of a world-wide empire. It is eonfldently asserted, in certain quarters which profess to be well informed, that Lord It. Ortavenor, Lord Harry Vitae and Mr. Compton Cavendish are to be immedi ately niece' to the peerage ; and that the writs for Middlesex, South Durham, and Buda will be boned before the pro rogation.

EXPRESS FROM PARIS. (nor ova Bexuar Evanixo. The Emperor will be in Paris to-morrow. He leaves Bordeaux at 10 this evening, and may be ex pected here about Bin the morning. His Majesty, accompanied by M. Fould, the Minister not only of State, but of the " Emperor's household," has just been surveying a large and, as it is said, an advan tageous purchase, made by the latter on his Majesty's account, in the arid district of the Landes. At La bouheyre, the most populous town of that depart ment, the Emperor was received with much cere mony by the municipalities of the neighbourhood. A deputation of working smelters presented him with a miniature cut iron column disguised as a bouquet, with the motto, "To Napoleon 111., the re generator of the Landes, presented by the grateful workmen." His Majesty will go almost immediately to the camp of Chalons. Count Rayneval, the late French representative at Rome, who has just been appointed ambassador to Russia, arrived in Paris this morning. I understand that the French government thinks it expedient to deny any present intention of occu pying a position in Cochin China, but the govern ment organs are instructed to insist upon the perfect right of France to go there whenever she chooses, and that by virtue of an old claim. It will be ad mated, however, that the claim can only be en forced by cannon, and while credit is taken for momentary forbearance, the public will be told that the government alone is in a position to detzrmine what may be the proper time for enforcing itsrights. The Prease says, in its weekly commercial re view : The reirumption of activity in the Faubourg St. Antoine, which we have more than once noticed with regard to some special industries, is now becoming more general. Several manufacturers Bad it diMcult to procure hands enough, and preparations are beginning to be made for the winter assort meats. A good many ordain have been received, both from the provinces and from abetted. Poe some time past Turkey has purchased largely in our market. Several ready-made i warehouses have received large commissions from Algeria, Switaeriand, and the Brasile. Business with England, which was checked by the first news of the Sepoy revolt, has now re vived. Large consignment' of "'Aides of Paris," perfumery more especially, have been sent to London in the calumet the week. Advice" from the manufacturing departments an nounce an almost general resumption of activity. The move ment Is especially remarkable at Roubaix. For some years pest the manufactures of this town have become very im portant, and the progression continues in an increased ratio. The dearness of silk has increased the sale of mixed woollen and silk tissues. The exportation of theme goods to the United States has been de►eloped in an extraordinary degree. For the lent eighteen months Roubaix may be said to have had no dead season. Birdman is better than It was at Ronan, but Mulhouse continues very calm. The exorbitant price of the raw material paralyses the trade in manufactured cottons. The manufactories of Lyons and St. Etienne are not very active, although they have received some orders from Parts haws. The accounts of the silk harvest are far from satisfactory, and it IN to be feared that silks will continue very dssr. PORTUGAL. The Peninsular and Oriental Company's steam packet Ramos, Captain J. Wake, arrived at Southampton yesterday, with the Penh:only mails. Her dates were — Gibraltar, Atigiut 15; Cadiz, 16; Limbos, 19; Oporto, 20 Vigo, 20. Sias brought 45 passengers, amongst whom wore the Hon. and Rev. J. Grey sad the Hams de S&L Amongst her cargo W ;pate value 2,0921. sterling. The following ls e pert of our correspondent's letter: LISBON, Atroverr_lB. Bluth is still said and written at Oporto about the ten pipes of fabitied wine which went there in the Vesta steamer, a short time ago ; but it appears that no existing leer meets the exigencies of the cane, and if the ten pipes cannot be legally seised, no remedy prevents itself but to let than go; still, It is highly necessary that the government take steps to prevent a repetition of the trawl; and it would be well if a law were passed prohibiting the importation—for re-exportation—of all fermented or spiritueuelimiers in Portu guese caske, or in those mode to Imitate them, a plan which is warmly advocated in an Oporto newspaper. The proceed ings taken by the committee of wine merchants in London, for representing to the Commiadenere of her Majesty's Cus toms the alarming extent to which the faleification of wines has keen carried, have attracted much notice here, in the Portuguese journal., and It Is seedless to add that what has been done meets with the warm approval of the wine growers. Really, a few such feet& as that lately brought to light at Oporto ought to put the British public on their guard against the cheep wines vended under the names of Port, Madeira, end Sherry. It la very natural that dishonest trader. should truckle to the rage for cheapness which ob tains at present; and if the public are determined to have port wine at from 2s. fed. to 3s. 6d. a bottle, they cannot ex press surprise when they find the liquid en abominable mixture, and even prejudicial to health. Lisboa exchanges for this packet are quoted as follow : Landon, 30 dsye, 631 ; 00 days' date, b 4 ; Pads, 326 ; Genoa, 625 ; Hamburg, 481 ; Amsterdam, 421 at 3 months' data On London paper we. scarce, and money remained over at the quoted rate. In continental paper some trenase. lions were effected at the quoted rates on Hamburg and Paris. ... The stock market is again sat, and prices ban receded somewhat. Three per Cent. Coupons are quoted at 481 to 481 ; Deferred Stock, 28f to 281 ; Bank of Portugal shame, Bto 81 per cent. premium ; Bank of Oporto, 20 to 22 per cent. premium. The Count de Mootalembert has left Paris for the baths in Savoy. His intimate friend, Mgr.

They believe it is the determination of the authorities in India to destroy Delhi, and that the greet mom there, which is gamed in the eyes of the Mahommedan population, will be read to the gnntad. They confirm the statement that the r evolt is a DI ussulman movement, and that the Riede°, have been made a cat's-paw of by the wily and warlike Maltommdsn•. They assert that if it were not for the deplorable atrocities committed, the revolt was not to be regretted, as nothing else would have induced the British public to have given any attention to Indian affairs. It was well known to the authorities In India that extmudve secret societies had been formed in India, and that the natives oom municated with each other by signs and symbols. The authorities thought that these signs and symbol. were eon meted with eerie peaceful religious MOVMI !PIA, end bed not the slightest idea that they related to a well-planned and gigantic military insurrection.

When I spoke of the crew of the Cagliari as not having yet received their linen and clothes, it was to be understood that the English engineers were included. Indeed, the only attention or com forts which they have received have been from their brother engineers, and from the Sardinian Steamboat Company. To say the least of it, there is an un graciousness about all this which is very , petty, and which is the more reprehensible inasmuch as no one doubts the ultimate liberation of the crew. In reply to all questions as to the time when the trial is to come on, the excuse made for the delay is, that the necessary preparations in the courts are very extensive, an excuse made, of course, with a view to gain tim e. A portion of the depositions which bad been made by those who were arrested at Padula was lately published. A curious history belongs to them. They were originally published in the German papers, from which they were extracted with great caution and brevity by the Gazette de Prance, and in full by the Opineme of Turin. For this reason the Opiniene was not per mitted to enter France, as it contained all the revelations made regarding the Mumtist con spiracies, and the Neapolitan government is in a state of great consternation on the subject, and feels itself compromised, as it had preserved those revelations for a more convenient opportunity. The deposition. were known only to the Intendente of Salerno, Signor Ajossa, to the Minister of Grace I and Justice, and to the King, and had been depo. sited with the strictest secrecy . in the hands of the Procureur-General of the Criminal Court of Salerno. The publication of these documents, therefore, in the foreign journals, without the knowledge or consent of the government, displays the zeal and fidelity of its employee, and shows how the revolution has en. toted into the very marrow of the country. Were Ito pursue this subject, it would be easy to adduce a vast mass of evidence, all tending to the same point, and showing that the only bond which binds official men to the government is their pay. Strict orders have been sent to Salerno to investigate this breach of faith, and meantime all the employes in the service of the Procureur-General have been suspended. Moreover, it is added that a procil will he commenced against those who are suspected or guilty of these facts. General Filangieri (Prince Satriano) is said to have been recalled in a great hurry, and there is much speculationes to the reasons of this sudden move. The Queen is reported better, and talks of returning to Caserta, " to attend to her doves and her favourite dog (Pacchiimella)." Ilia Majesty continues his evening drives from Castellamare to Vico, between which places, and even on to Sorrento, mounted gendarmes and guards are placed within eight of each other. If these ar rangements are a proof of a sovereign being " adored," well may kings exclaim, "God defend us from such adorers ." My last letter mentioned the return of Mr. de Normann from London, after having arranged for laying down the submarine cable between Sicily and Malta. lam now in a position to give you fuller details, and they are as follows :—Mr. de Norman arrived in England on the 2eth July, and succeeded in coming to terms with the Electric and Interna tional Telegraph Company, who take upon them selves the entire responsibility of laying down the cable. A correspondence was opened with the East India Company and with government on the subject, though, whatever may be the result, the arrange ment to which I have alluded will still hold good. Mr. de Normann returns to London next Thursday, and by the time he arrives the cable will be on its way to Malta; so that about the end of September the communication between that island and Perim and London will be complete. Some alteration has been made in regard to the terminus of the line in Sicily, which is no longer to be Cape Pasoan, ; the point now fixed on is Alga Grande, at the mouth of the river Seidl, about 82 miles f rom Malta. Mr. de Normann had an audience of his Majesty on his arrival, and the King, I understand, expressed himself highly satisfied with his success. Mr. de Normann has also obtained a concession for laving down a submarine cable from Otranto to Corfu, but no proceedings will be taken until the line is laid down through the Abruzzi and Puglia to Brindisi. This, I understand, may be expected to be terminated in about six months. One of the first operations will be the laying down of the cable from Reggio to Messina, which it will cost only a few hours to do, as everything has been long ready and on the spot. It is to be hoped that all these im portant enterprises will be carried into effect ; but the truth is, so much is proposed and so little done, that one is never sure of anything in the king dom of the Two Sicilies. It will be in your recollection that two attempts have been already made to break up the wreck of the Carlo Terzo, which was destroyed by gunpowder at the beginning of the year. On Friday last another explosion was made, under the superinten dence of Mr. de Normann, and in the presence of Messrs. Longridge, Clark, and others. The charge was about 240 lbs. of powder, and the result was most successful. Whilst former explosions had the effect of recovering the boilers, this completely broke up the forecastle of the vessel, scat tering the fragments to a great distance, and producing very grand effects. The water and material were thrown up to the height of at least 16 feet, and intermingled with the debris the horrible spe c tacle of a human body was to be sees. Two explosions more will, I believe, finish the operations. The Austrian frigates left Naples on Friday last. There were a great number of middle, on board, and I presume that they are out on a cruise for instruction. The Centaur was reported last at Messina, whence she was bound to Palermo, and so on to Naples. All is quiet for the present, but in a country subject to political tornadoes we are always glad to see a British war steamer. Littis governments, too, are influenced by the sight of the wire which is connected with a galvanic battery.
