LONDON, TUESDAY, MAY 23. A PRACTICAL commentary on the debate in the House of Lords last night is supplied by refer ence to the payout state of the country. That a good sr a bad harvest spreads comfort or distress tltroagl all dames is so certain, that it to make the statement. An =ain ae menity of produce is en abundance or asersity deeds's' be be exchanged, and the fortune.; of the babe seasupesatly are bound up with those of the bashodinan. It excites no surprise therefore that the Asap in the early part of the month, from a long esid drought to warm refreshing rain, over the greater part of Europe, and the prospect of a nammahly good season succeeding to fears of a very bed am, hue been followed by a considerable stimu lus to bade. Several causes, each as • low rate of intend, a growing assurance of continued peace be tween thegovenumata of Europo—nations are entirelj , A{sadl great exertions of producers to po ises aced &ntly, now work to the same sad. . rile s all the marts of commerce, and all the situ neaulleetariag industry, we have now extremely ineemMe gement& Commercial circulars which a flaw weeks se maths ago were characterised by gloom sad despedsmeyotaw tell us in hopeful et ea iottaam badman carried on with if met kap. profit To ell holden of eesam--ead all the mercantile dense ere so lam er fuse—fulling, but not kw Wass, ere mum* kinital, and they always benefit by rising rises. • Uhler, says a Liverpool circular, bas rhea Irma the lowest point 6a. to 6e. per cwt. Coffee, especially wadi" Ceylon, is from 2e. to 3s. higher. Jute, 10s. par too, whilst the rise in cotton has been from Id. to id. per lb., and very heavy purchases have been made on speculation and for export. So in Leaden last week vast purchases were made of sugar, coffee, cotton, fie., at improved prices, and amongst the mercantile dames 'a very cheerful feeling has succeeded to despondency. The intimate connexion between every part of Europe compels them to extend their views over the whole world. The upward tendency of the colonial and other markets ie partly the consequence of the con viction that the seasonable weather and refreshing reins will enable the agriculturists of Europe to buy and consume freely. Thus, the change in the wea ther has been influential, and the mercantile classes will not renew the complaints made hat year of heavy losses from falling prices, and will not give arms into the hands of their moat determined op ponents. Even Mr. G. F. Youxo will be forced to remain silent from wanting the theme supplied by them of transactions without profit and of a decline of the income tax under Sch edule The rise in 'pries is not the consequence of any deficiency in the great articles of consumption, such as sugar, coif* tea, &c . ; on the contrary, th e locks of them are large in comparison to former years, yet consumption is still larger. Even the pries of cotton is thing in face of a larger crop by 3,000,000 bale' than the United States ever before preduced. and no deficiency in the crops of other countries. Consump Son is increasing so rapidly, such vast masses of the of Europe are yet so imperfectly and un rZutiltr clothed, th at it MI doubtful whether all that is or can be produced will solace for the wants of the world. Wool, too, is yet abundant ;no deficiency has been e xperienced, but are for the future and the sinister from Australia have caused the price at the reports colonial wool, which commenced on Thurs. day, to be considerably above the pries at former alas. The improvement in the markets is altogether the result of a great and a steady increase of con sumption, combined with a high probability that it will continue to increase. Food indeed, the abundance of which is the secure foundation of the whole, tastiness cheap and plenti ful.

Tho dark side of the picture is to be found, not in our workshops but in the halls of legislation. Our best hopes rest ou securing the predominance of the element of good, as evolved by the industry of the people, over the element of confusion, as evolv.d by the contentions of parties and the follies of ambition. To the coming eleetions, which cannot be long de layed, we look u tho means of ensuring the con tinuance of the national welfare. The lati ei the people is given into their own beads. In an en lightened public opinion and corresponding action we shall find safety. Everywhere kee-trade exhibits itself in prosperity and im I tied the main duty of parliament will bo to assure and extend it. Present progress is the muff of the removal of restrictions—of abolishing sestmes and excise differential and protecting dutissand et the living energies of the wl m isi s sople, giving the Impulse and the direction to , indeed of the barren regulations of avarice ignennen They yet im pose, horever, numerous reakiedoes on industry, and wo most not only prevent new our, we must remove all that remain. To more prosperity the people must send to parliament those who will dearly preserve all the freedom that we have got, and give us more. Every day plasm before us proofs that the abolition of tandem, ff necompanied by a removal of restrictions, as in the abolition of all indirect taxes, is not a redaction of revenue. Lord DERBY says he scarcely expects a majority. The people must set his mind at rest on that point by returning members not only pledged to free-trade, but pledged also against Lord Danny. A GENERAL meeting of the loading men of the liberal party in the City of London was held yester day, at the London Tavern, of an unusually exciting and interesting character. It had been originally summoned by the chairman and secretary of the Registration Society; but their summonses being addressed only to the chairmen, deputy-chairmen, and secretaries of the various local liberal organisa tions, it was felt that the principal question to be decided was much too important to be authoritatively dealt with by any assembly of a confined and restricted sort ; and, therefore, other gentlemen of equal standing and character were requested to be in attendance. Some doubts were at lint expressed whether this recruited strength could be admitted to the general consultation ; but the prevailing feeling of the body originally sum moned by the Registration Society being strongly against any liability to the imputation of making a great move from a meeting of a hole and corner cha racter, the want of formality in their summons was at once waived, and an aggregate assembly of the ' leaders of the City liberals was formed. • Mr. Pauccrrr, the banker, was called to the chair. Mr. RADII'S CURRIE moved the first resolution, to the east that the three present liberal member s be =n , d supported by the liberal party as their on the dissolution. This resolution was sesonded by Mr.THOXSON HAMM, in a very spirited and energetic speech. To it an amendment was moved by Mr. &sum, the wine-merchant, that the names of the candidates should be put sepa rately to the meeting for their adoption or rejection. But on a division being called for, the amendment was rejected by a very large majority, as calculated to produce unnecessary divisions and jealousies in toe The party. The discussion on the resolution itself then followed, and it was of a very animated, occasionally o f rather an exciting order. At first a somewhat opinion was expressed on the part of Mr. J. Isuvaits, Mr. DAVID WIRE, and Mr. WILLIAM HAwes against the candidature of Lord JOHN RUSSELL; many objected to the stationary policy of his government, to the mode in which he had per sonally dealt with the question of the Jewish Disabi lities, and to the obstructions the Truemy bad, whilst he wu at its head, placed in the way of M.ams Re form. The polemic on this point at one time waxed a little warm. In defence of Lord J. Ruse= the gen tlemen we have just named were very elbetnally swered at length by Mr.T.A. hirrertuL,Mr. Dittos; Mr. FoturrEa and Mr. ()mhos Gm!. The imps.- parproduced an the meeting by them particularly by the eery earnest and epeseh of Mr. GLYN, complete; y raised this of the majority present in Lord Junes inemes Ind Raw ROTHSCHILD having vary aim*, bat asphatkelly, stated that, in his opinion, LendJuni Resanu, had acted thirty and honourably by the question in which he personally was so deeply interested, the original resolution, that the present three liberal members should be the liberal candidates, and receive the full and active 'lmport of the liberal party, was put to the meeting by the chairman. By far tlargest proportion of hands present were heartily raimd for it; and on the negative being put, not one hand wu held up in its support : a feet denoting . that the three candidates in question will now receive the full support even of the few dimes- Seats who had raised disameloa on the claims of one. The meeting then dismayed. after making the usual arrangements to carry eat its main deter mination. Whitt we cannot doubt the propriety of such a discussion as was this raind - ity Yr. Tama and Mr. HAWN'S, and do not doubt that it will teach the noble lord whose endue gave rise to it a very valuable lean, we can have as doubt is the madams of the decides to whisk the meeting at last came without a diesonthat vote. At inch a crisis as this, to have degraded Lord Joss Rawl.; by dismissing him from the representation Of theClty of London would have been not only unjust to Ind loss him self, but have inflicted an irreparable in-. jury on the liberal party getmeally.

To-day the Conseil d'Etat held a sitting, at which Louis Napoleon presided. The remaining clauses of the bill on public instruction were addipted without change, and the bill will be forthwith communicated to the Corps Legislatif. The substance of the bill is to concentrate the establishments of public instruo tion in the chief cities instead of the capitals of de partments, and to subject them more immediately to the control of the government. In general these features are not liked by the clergy, whose influence, now that the University is broken down, predomi nates in proportion to the absence of control on the part of the government. An Annie has taken place at the Ecole de Saumnr, a military establishment for training cavalry officers. Some of the scholars took to singing republican songs, and the others legitimist; so that the battle lay between " Vive Henri IV. and La Belle Gabrielle" on one side, and the " Marseillaise " and the ..Oirondins" on the other, while the cypher of Prince Louis Napoleon was trodden under foot. General ltampon, having put down the row by calling in some troops, punished the refractory youths by eight days' of arrest. Ho then wrote a report of the affair to General de St. Arnaud, who sent back orders to increase the term of arrest up to a month. _ _ The Duchess of Orleans, I hear, hu addressed two letters—one to Marshal Loban, and another to the de l'Aiglc, begging them to use their intlence with all their friends to prevent as many tunctionasies as possible from taking the oath. The duchess adds, that she makes this request in order not to cross the wish of her family ; an expression which implies that she makes a sacrifice of her own feelings, which would have prompted her to abstain from making such a request, in order to comply with the duiirc of her relations. This circumstance tends to confirm the prevailing reports of the completion of the re conciliation between the two branches. According to a letter from Widabaden, which appears in the Worse Gazette, the Count de Chambord is expected at Ems, where, it is said, the Queen Marie Ainclie and the Dukes de Nemours, flatmate, and Mon tpensier will meet him. The manifesto of the Count de Chambord was not issued without much previous discussion. Eight of the Prince's advisers were in favour of the measure, and eight against. The Count do Chambord settled the matter by giving his casting vote in favour of the ' latter. The Marquis do Pastoret, who was regarded as the most confidential agent of the elder branch resident in France, has taken the oath twice to the present government, as member of the commission of historical monuments, and of the commission of pub lic assistance. The Bulletin de Paris declares that M. de Fellows gives symptoms of decided adhesion to the government. • I mentioned the nature of M. Mole's intended re ply to Oranier de Cassagnac. It was all ready written; but M. Mole's friend dissuaded him from sending it, as the subject glanced too near the per son of the President. They added that, as nu one would put his word into the balance against that of the notorious writer in the Constitulumnel, silence would be the most dignified course. The shortness of General Bedean's letter declining the oath, and its comparative moderation, have been noticed. 10 am rightly informed, this general, who belonged to the tiers - park in the National Assembly, wished to avoid the acrimonious tone which has constantly characterised the language held by Venerate Chan gamier and Lamoriciere on the President's account. It appears that recently the alarming rumours that prevailed in Belgium, and the fears which were en tertained in December and January of forcible an nexation to France have been revived, insomuch that several letters from Brussels have been received here by members of the government dwelling on the ill effect which was produced by those alarms, and the tendency which they had to alienate the court cif Leopold. In consequence of these representations, understand that the Conslitutionnel has received instructions from the government here to publish a semi-official article contradicting completely all such rumours, and explaining the independent footing upon which France desire' to remain with Belgium. The affair of the repulse of the Charlemagne, screw-steamer, at the Dardanelles, has produced a good deal of irritation. The Univers, always anxious to catch at a motive for blowing the coal of jealousy against England, ascribes the refusal of the Sultan to British influence. It were much to be wished that British influence were considerable enough in that part of the world to weigh with the Porte. But everybody knows that at Constantinople notuing is done save with the good pleasure of Russia. You are aware that it is a part of the President's system to oblige his ministers and the highest paid functionaries of the state to give great fetes, balls, and dinner parties. One of the most notable of these entertainments took place yesterday, at the ministry of public works, one of the fine old hotels in the faubourg St. Germain. The spacious garden was turned for the nonce into a sort of miniature of the Champs Elysees, and the most infantine sorts of diversion, such as discharging crossbows at Turks, Punch and Judy, &c., hc., were provided for the VI:4M. Abbattucci, the Minister of Justice, has w shirked the costly obligation of giving a grand entertainment. But the President, deter mined not to admit any exception, has expressed his absolute wish that the keeper of the seals should lone cards for a fete on the same monster scale as those already given by MM. Peraigny, St. Arnaud, Bineau, Lefebvre Durafle, and the other ministers. Numerous arrests have been made in the bahlieue, at Boulogne, Montrouge, and Clichy, in connection with the publication of seditious bulletins. It appears from the budget that the government proposes to increase the stipend of the Archbishop of Paris from 40,000 fr. to 60,010 fr., those of fourteen archbishops from 15,000 fr. to 20,000 fr., and of sixty five bishops from 10,0006. to 12,000 fr. It also pro pos-a to increase the stipends of the vicare-general by 500 fr., to improve the position of some of the lower clergy, to increase the allowance to the Chap ter of St. Denis and to grant 180,0006. for increasing the choirs of cathedrals. The purchases of the President of the Republic in the Bologna consist of two estates, the chateau of La Grillaire, and the chateau of La Motte-Beuvron, with the lands attached to them. They were bought together for the pum of 1,600,000 franca. It is the intention of the Prssidmt,it is said, to make on these estates an essay of agricultural colonisation. The Monikeur contains a circular from M. Fortonl, minister of public instruction, to the rectors. It ap pears that the decree of April 10th relating to edu cation in public schools and colleges, has been unfa vourably received. A host of objections have been raised against tho valise of divorce pronounced by that decree between literary and scientific education. A main feature of the new scheme is that lads having eceivod the rudiments of education in the lower forms, should, at the age of 13 or 14, elect between one of two courses of study with reference to his fu ture vocation in life. The decree assumes that the peculiar aptitude or inclination of a boy's mind will then be sufficiently developed to enable him, with the Melee of his relatives and instructors, to make choice of a trade or profession. It has been objected, with much reason, that the choice of a cab* is practically in many, perhaps in most, instances go verned by accident and opportunity. It is seldom possible for parents to foresee four or five years be forehand in what path of life their influence may be most advantageously used in furtherance of their children's interests. The field of enterprise is ever liable to be affected by the fluctuations of commerce, the caprices of fashion, the progrehs of invention, by ' plague of famine, by peace. or war. Again, the power of choice is dependent upon the vicissitudet of fortune, upon station, offices friends, family claims, and family expectations. Upon an infinite variety of cherunitanwe subject to daily and hourly change. People have, theireFore, been alarined at the prospect of their childrip receividg a special education from an early age; *ten it "at necessarily be uncertain whether the opportunity of using their spe cial knoWledge may - ever occur. It is feared that general sequirements which may bo rapidly brined to any nireount as occasion may arise, wit; be aeglected for tho sake of ' dn unbound theory. IL 'Porton', however, now says that•the decree has been misunderstood. He asserts thin the separate course of study now complained of hailang existed, from the very nature of things, only it has heretofore ex isted without regularity or guidvace. The object of the decree was to put a stop to this sort of anarchy. The criticisms that have been made overlook, he says, the Important provison that " futqa gramma shall indicate those Antos vriVr .ICAA :-.6* •
