Ws congratulate the shareholders of the Great We-tern le eilway Company on their having at length taken hem of gnu e, and intimated to the Director*, In on intelligible manner, their intention to have a voice in the management of their property. Hitherto tie rerolu!ions prop° -sd by the Board or its organs were the only ones which app7ated to have a chance of btior pa.eed at the meetings; bat at that which has just been held two iceolivions were carried in exceitioo to the Directors, which will doubtless hey., the eff.et of awakening the shareholders to a ware of their pewee.. The Chairman, Lord BAIA. AMMON. alluded in a somewhat supercilious maw sir to " • plea which bre been put forward for the apt lint:nett of a number of individuals to advise with the di-rotors o; the compel." This he designated as a " sort of conference in stably° (whatever that may br) to erh , el3 a board of directors could possibly submit.' Never helm, a itaolaticn appointing four gentlemen tor that purpose was careied, and a rano *illicit of the board, sou to infuse a more practical character inte,the oireetion, seems likely to be the result. It is very well for chairmen to speak of ad vice or supervision on the part of the shareholders, as !binge to which they Ind not submit; but, be fore they ; ere in a pubic': to utter such brave words, they are bound to show that their proceeding* are characterised by the ODM. merciel tact sod wisdom which men directing the effsirs of great ?redly g companies are bound to possess- If they have not thou qualifications, or others of equal value to their fellow-shareholders, it is their duty to retire from a post for which they are all* unfit, and to which they have aspired either tram vanity or in compliance with the request of Wadi clone felted,. lt, reverthelms, they prefer to retain the office for which they are so little adages;, they must submit to the control and advice of sees mac. tle I men. The beard of the Great Western, taking it ci a contiouous body, has ucquistionably given no proofs of surpassing wisdom, or of the necessity for its being enfranchised from the advice or scrutiny of the ehareholders. What has it done with the twenty-two soda half millions stale, the expenditure of which it hes directed or adopted? With every addition made to the original capital, there has t ;ea a diminished rate of profits. It has, in fact, come to this pees, that sloe fighting at an enor mous cost for the Shrewsbury lines, it is made a sub ject for congratulation that the lose on them is °sly about 26.0001., while the directors mess at last to have made the discovery that the rate chargeable for goods carried by the Kennet and Avon Canal will not cover the expenses. Either the earlier dividends paid by the Great Western were not earned, or the illOCeilliTO directors constituting the board ham been grossly incompetent, sod have committed a aeries of blenders in their long and ruinous struggles toe:tend their field of operations, by making acquie times which have steadily diminished the remunera tive character of the undertaking. The improve ment in the management to which the present board Isis claim, mid which has resulted in an increased dividend, is an unanswerable proof that their former coarse was one which not only needed, bat admitted, oradvanta;cous modifications within the power of active sod energetic men. It is not merely an in creased grew revenue to which the report directs the attention of the shareholders, but also a dirains. ties of the working charges both on the main Ns and in the branches; and although a • large portion of this diminution is 'tie hatable to a diminished outlay for the repairs of the permanent way, it is probably to the outcry which iodises(' the appointment of a committee last year that this revolt is in a great memos to be ascribed. "Looking at the enormous extent of the Great Wes tern, it cannot to wondered that such unsatisfactory results have been produced, when we are told that the Secretary, who.. ordinal, duties one would think were onerous enough, was practically the manager es well, and that the Bard of Directors was a delibera. tire rather than an executive body. It is only by a judicious distribution of duties that an effective supervision can be maintained, and the organi sation of the Great Western executive appears to have been wofully deficient in this respect. The projects concocted by the engineer and secretary seem to have bees adopted by the board, and thrust upon the shareholders without being duly weighed, and these two officials seem to have been mainly jest, u mental i n permanently sinking the value of Great Wee. tern property. We do not indeed say it is doomed to remain is its present disastrous state; on the contrary, we fully believe that much can and will be done to nice it to a better position; but these who have bad the direction of its affairs during the first twisty years of its existence have hung a mill ✓ose round the neck of the Company, frees whish it will sever be free. Is it possible to imagine a more disgraceful position than that to which this mogul limit property was recently reduesd, when man wore npwilliog to accept its debentures as security for mosey except at exorbitant rates, and when they mere unsaleable in the apes market P Neverthelese, we must give the directors credit for misfits, what we insider a great blot on the London and North- Western. It is a comfort to find them charging to the curtest revenue the sums expended for repairs and renewals of the permanent limy.

A correspondence in the Cokgns Ga:ette gives the following u a faithful analysis. if not the text itself, of the answer of the King of Naples which the Moni. teur described as "negative in substance and offensive in form." "King Ferdinand formally declines to suffer any intromitsion of the Western Powers in the 'Hairs of his kingdom. He repudiates, interference el being contrary to all the rules of international right and derogatory to the independence end dignity of his crown. Relying upon the principle of eternal justice which prescribes that you ahocld sot do unto others what you would not have others do unto you, he mks, What would Lord Palmerston say if the Neapolitan government were to presume to sit in judgment on the adminis. fictive acts of the British cabinet, and to recommend a mt dificsidon in its 'Wore policy, or for instance the ndop:ion of more lihoral measure, towards un happy Ireland, sod more humane ones in regard to its subjects in the East Indies? What would be his 'sewer to any power that should thus dare to intermeddle with the Queen's government? He would reply as the Court of Naples now does,— that he acknowledged no right and no power in any one whatever to d•ctate rule, of conduct to him, or to indulge in cffecsive remonstrances. Or rather, not so. Lord Palmer rocn would not even have taken the trouble to answer, but be would have at once sent r -sports to the representative of the power that should have so acted. Ilse not then the King of Naples en equal right with Great Britain to show himself jealous of his own honour, and careful of that of his people ? lie may, indeed, by way of showing the neighbourly respect and good feeling with which he is animated, listen to overtures made with the object of consolidating public order in Europe. But even these should be laid before him with all that delicacy and reserve which is due to a free Sovereign. And in any event, he alone mast be the judge of the effi ency of the measures which he may to recommended to adopt, and above all must be left absolutely tree to choose the moment which may 12001 boat to himself fee their application. The King is better able than any one else to appreciate the exigencies of his position and the necessities resulting from it. It is alleged that this situation requires certain modifications, moan reforms. It is argued that the revolution no longer attacks the govern ment of the Two Sicilies by physical force. Admitting that to be so, it is a proof that the regions so loudly complained of has not ken so useless or so harmful as some people would have it believed. Bat it f+ added, this region* has ceased to be necessary. The King is not of that opinion, and his will cannot be constrained unless material force bee erected into a principle, and then what becomes of the principle of the royal authority P And what would be the value of sots accomplished under external pressure? Under such circumstance* any concession, however legitimate, would be alike devoid of merit and efficacy. His Majesty King Fer • dinged is, thandlere, entirely in the teethe( the 'Rua lion when he maintaies his prerogatives, sad when he asserts his right to be the sole judge both of what is to be done and when is the opportune moment to do it. This moment he desires to see with all his heart; but it is impersible to deny that the violent sod systematic attacks of the English press, and the provocations thrown out in parlia mentary speeches, are calculated to postpone the opr.rtuntty for some time yet. Is it irrprmed that the bad passions of a country still Imbued with the revolntiooary doctrines of 1848 are to he calmed by such means ? It cannot be forgotten that not long ago the " central general com mittee of Italy" laid down the principle that political homicide is not a crime, especially when a powerful enemy is to be got rid of, &c. &c.," or that this lame committee put a prim upon the head of the King of Naples and promised a reward of a hundred thotesed ducats to whoever should deliver Italy from this monster! In presence of such facto, so neer to no, it is more than a right, it is a duty, for his Majesty the King of the Two Sicilia; to act with the greatest circumspection, and not lightly to depart from the system of government which he deemed it expedient to adopt quite as much for the goed of his subjews as for his own safety. "It is insinuated and attempted to be proved, that the constitution of 1848, under the empire of which the horrible principles above mentioned were openly propagated, is the law of the land in the kingdom of Naples. Bat it is forgotten that when the constitu tion wee proposed to the rebel Sicilians they con tomptuously rejected it and called foe that of 1812. The only effect of the concessions which Ferdinand IL then made was to stimulate the demands of the revolutionists all over Italy, and the movement' which broke out in Naples and Palermo were the signal for insurrectioen in Sardinia, R nee, Lombardy, &o. It is desired in mere wantonness to KO a repetition of this bloody cycle of crimes and eitestrophes in which unhappy Italy wee before precipitated P The constitution of 1848 would be marvellously adapted to bring about molt a result. "Bosh email be the real intention of the Gabfests at Loudon and Paris, which most desire to assistela peace, sad the so dearly bought repose of Europe.

They say the governmint, *Midas by the fall of prices in Enna, has purchaired 100,000 fanegas of wheat (a /omega is equal to fifty flee French litres), and it will speedily arrive in our ports. This rumour has no effect on the holders of grain, who seem resolved not to sell yet, expecting a higher rise. It is not at Madrid only that this question occupies every mind; all the provincial journals bring news which is not teas- oaring; in Biscay, for instance, the harvest of maize and beans may be considered as lost (the maize constitutes four.flftlis of the food of the province); the fields are burnt up with heat; the people hasten in crowds to the mountain shrines, with prayers and solemn processions, imploring God for rain. For several weeks not a drop of rain has fallen ; another week of such a drought, and all will be last. At Medina del Campo, bread costs a sum equal to six peo,ce for two ponds English, and is of execrable quality; and on the 10th, there was not food enough for forty-eight hours. Crowds assembled at the bakery.' shops, quarrelling for the bread as fast as it was baked; and there who wanted four pounds could only get one. At Grenada, the bakers, tearing au attack from the populace, had asked the ojuntorniento to fix the price. In the prevailing dread of a famine, the municipality of Valladolid has presented an address to the Queen, I saying, "The capital of Old Castile, the centre of production and commerce for gran, 806 1 it•elf entirely destitute; and in spite of all the efforts of the authorities, it is impossible far this city to procure any corn, vales, it be got by force.' The address goes on to say—" The sant, harvest this year, the lack of a stock in reserve from former yaws, everything, in short, imperatively requires that the exportation of wheat, dour, and barley shill be prevented and their importation be allowed." Meantime, it is reported from Oaths, that large arrivals of grain have taken place, and that there is now a considerable store. - The roads in Andalusia are made unsafe by the bands of robbers which infest them as far u Pena for. The Gaulle publishes the conditions of the sale by suction of 17,000 arras* of copper from the stock of the Rio Tinto mines. The sale is to be at the end of August. Much is said of a violent article, published by Gon zalo Moron, opium the English press. I shall have something 0 say about it to-morrow. The .Madrid Gast . tie of the 14th publishes the text of the circular of the Minister of the interior to the governors of provinces, of which mention has ben made in a telegraphic despatch. It sets forth the principles on which the government intends to have the dissolution and reorganisation of monied palitiss and provincial deputations carried cut; and then proceeds to tray : The government Is lithely determised to restore fumy to the principle of authority, which has been shaken, and not to permit that prinbiple to be irjured.

The Bp6ca, a semi-official organ, says that in well inform d circler it was reported that the government had at list resolved on its line of policy, sod that it is to the effect that the Coestitnent Cortes shall be dissolved before the period fixed for their re sisembling, that the constitution of 1845 shall be brought into force with modifications (the principal of them being the nomination of a senate of distin • plotted men), that electioes for the Cortes shall take place in accordance with the law of 1887, that the Cirtes shall have power to modify the 'constitution; that the National Gaud shall be disarmed, s to . The Clamor Publico says that it was ponsidend likely that the Marquis de Torgot wooklnot return to Madrid es French ainterrador, bat that he would be replaced by Marshal Csnrobert. It says also that M.

(MN OMR OWN PARIS, NOM: EvulNo. The Emperor and Empress paid a visit to the Pre Catelan on Sunday. This afternoon their Majesties came to the Tuileries from Bt. Cloud. It is defini tively settled that their Majesties and the Imperial Prince will leave for Biarritz tomorrow (Tuesday) l eveeing. On the occasion of the fe'e of August 18, the Minister of State appropriated a sum of 1,800,000 k., part of the publio funds destined to I answer the obligation which the state hu taken upon itself of carrying into ezeoution the will of Napo leon L, to b 3 apportioned in sums of 60,000 k. l among the twentysiz departments designated by the testator. Another sum has been handed by the Minister to the Orand Menetllor of the Legion of Honour, to be distributed among four or five thousand old soldiers. Marshal Caerobert wes to leave Aix les Bohm yes terday to »tutu to France. His health he- greatly improved daring his stay in Savoy. Yon will we that there is a talk of his being appointed azabar-ador to Madrid. I do not know what tt nth there may be in the repot t —and it is only one among many reports of a contra dictory character—that the governments of England and France really contemplate a hostile demonstra tion against the King of Nsples, but I remark that the Sieth, which, although a semi-republican j3urnal, was quoted on a memorable occasion by the dlonileur, and deem sometimes receive hints which the govern ment prefers not to ventilate through its ordinary organs, speaks of King Bombe (as it calls him) in terms which it would hardly use if it were not cored that his Sicilian majesty may for the moment be safely abused. It says, moreover, that, according to private iofoamation, "a legal resist ance is befog organised egainst a detestable and detested power, and that if the King does not take care, he may very shortly be sent to join the other branches of his illustrious raise who are now in exile." It would be superfluous for me to say that Ido not augur much good to the canes of liberty or program in any country from the intervention of the prime government of France. But itmay well be that it enters into the designs of the French Emperor to get aid of a Bourbon in Naples as well as to prevent oae of the family from acceding to power in Spain. A private letter lyn been communicated to me to-day, from which it appears that Marshal Pelissier, about whcee halt at Palermo on his way home from the Crimea. the French journals have curiously enough been entirely silent, was almost insulted by the authorities there. This letter, which was written by one Sicilian to another, and was not intended for publication, is as follows; Palermo, Alvan 7. I do cot know whether Marshal Folksier visited Finny in pursuance of order from his Emperor, or merely localise he droned to see the two prlaelpal cities ia the Blind. Bat whatever may have beta Is emus of his visit to Messina sad Paleface, the marshal mast have men for himself that the Sicilia& people under stand serioany what the Waiters Powers have send in favour of the cavalries subjoined tithe despotic end brutal domination of the King it Naples. Marshal Pelissirr bad goireily linded at Messina whoa be was warmly received in every street with the expreadua of the most signers gym pithy, sad of a hole that, by the mediation of Prance and England, a better goverment might be obtaiaed. From Messina the marshal went to Palermo. There a great number of chinas bad organised a demonstration to prove to him what were the sentiments of the capital of the Aland. But the Folic* pat a stop to the gathering sad ar restedAfty imaioldtals. The dernmucation was to have bean made oe the beautdel promenade on the sea shore. The marital, on hating, paid a visit to Prince Cagteltioals. They remained in convention for sa hour and a quarter. The lientenstatieneral had urembled ill his aldss-dc•camp and orderly Milton to accompany him oa his return visit to the marshal, but the latter hid scarcely left the palace when the llentenantgeneral sent all the omens home. The commandeat of the place went none on b;nd the marshal's vessel, but it is said that he was not I received. The fact is that Marshal Palmier having been told that the Marist-parade was the Ault and most ire quested is Palermo, was astonished to see ant social upon it. Upon inquiry he heard of the amen, and learnt that the public had kept away Mena the parade is order to make a negative demonstration—the only one they were per mitted to do. Ten esplaiss the ill humour of the marshal. Other unite were afterwards made. The agitation in• mane every day, and the more so became, otoottlioll to the latest news from Naples, a serious movement there it expected from one day to another. The Bonne has - been heavy today, and a great part of the not very considerable improvement which the Rents made last week has beerlost. The market was affected by a fall (although the fall was I per cent. only) in Consols, and by the news that money was more loam in Loudon and discount more diffi cult. The Threes fell 20c. for ash, and 150. for amount, closing at 70fr. 850. and 71fr. Credit Mobi. liar fell 15fr. There was a considerable fall in some of the railway line', occasioned in grist measure by the depression of the Grand Central, which fell nearly 20fr. in oonsequence of its being known that the ne gotiations for a fusion with the Lyons and Mediter ranean line had not been brought to a conclusion either on Saturday or at the adjourned meeting to- day. A great many epeonlative purchases bad been made in the line, in the expectation of an immediate solution, and when the disappointment became known these parties hastened to close their accounts. The fall in the Grand Central weighed heavily against the Lyons and Orleans line. The former fell 7fr. 500., and the latter 10fr. There is a great talk in the financial world of an motion which has been commented before the Tribunal of Commerce, by the founders of the General Con pan, of Credit in Spain," spinet MIL Prost and Ca, in coonesquenec of a makunderstanding relative to the term of the original entreet between them.

A Vienna letter in the Barren Zeilung, of Berlin, says that, in consequence of the Neapolitan govern ment having shown by its acts that the °anomalous and reforms which it promised were only ostensible, and were a mere device to gain time, the ministers of France and Ragland have declared that, henceforth, they must regard u very doubtful the good disposition of the court of Naples, upon which the Western Powers bad relied while they susi3nded the application of coercive measures ; and that the moment has come to exact from it some positive guarantee for the execu tion, within a definite time, of the reforms which have been promised. The cabinet of Vienna, not being able to offer them the guarantees demanded, and having exhausted all the means in its power to prevent this crisis, has now proposed that the employment of rigorous measures shall be preceded by a sort of congress, by which not only the question of Naples, but the Italian question in general, shall be definitively regulated. If the cabi nets of London and Paris should adopt the proposal of Count 800% the representatives of the Five Great Powers would form a conference, having the same ob ject in view se the conferences of Rome in 1832. The resolutions of the conference would be drawn up in the form of a protocol, which should have the force of an obligation with regard to the points decided. Le Nord observes that this is a statement which as yet wants confirmation. The Oat Deutsche Post denies that the Austrian Baron Hubner has any diplomatic mission at Naples. The Oesterreiehisehe Zeitung contends for the sovereign rights of the King of Naples, and the principle of non-intervention main tained by Lord Castlereagh at the Congress of Lay bach; the utmost it would allow foreign governments to do, is to address confidential communications to the sovereign, advice, entreaties, and the expression of their wishes; but even this is more than ought to be done, in the opinion of the Austrian journal, except by governments connected with him by family ties or particular amity. PIEDMONT. The Piedecontese government has just received the sum of 7,425 fr. subscribed by the Sardinian sub jects and other Italians settled at Jima and other cities of Peru, for the relief of the widows and children of the Sardinian soldiers fallen in the Cri mean war. The Duo de Grammont, French ambsysador to the court of Sardinia, celebrated the 15th of August at Turin by a splendid banquet. Among the guests were Count Cavonr, General La Marmora, Com mander Retsina, General Dabormida, Sir James Hudson, and many other distinguished members of the government and of the diplomatic body. Count de Gyoar proposed the health of the Emperor and Empress of the French, and the Doc de Grammont that of King Victor Emmanuel and of the royal family. ROME. The German Journai of Frankfort saya:—"Letters from Rome state that the question pending between the Holy Sc:: and Russia appears to have taken a five arable torn. The Pope has presented the Em peror Alexander with a statue, by the sculptor Fibri, representing the death of Milo of Croton..

She has no right to set in this w..y; sad it is quite clear that she does not so act foy the purpose of securing the existence of the thrones or altars. but of strengthening her own gov.nmental influence, and her own usurpation. It is consequently evident that Pied• mont, in her capacity n an Italian state equal to the stets possessed in Italy by Austria, and in her capacity as mai urn peon power, con also intervene. I say that she ought to do so, and that in forming her resolutions she ought to taw counsel of her interests and dignity. If Europe is appre hensive that a Piedmontese intervention in the other staters of Italy may dloterb the peace, she must put en end to the Austrian occupation, and Sod the means of not seeing it renewed."
