In answer it was netted that they were better paid than the officers of the navy of the correepondiog rank; ttttt teeing they asked for an improvement is their endition. Now, the hoeonrab'e and gallant gentleman took the other side, and said that the navy was aaderpaid, compared with tr • army and the mariner. Bat, as he said before, they ought sot to take up individual eases, but to take • g I view. As to the first else, that had beta brought under the swine of the house—the eap taloa, commandere, &a , at Greenwich Handal—he an- Willy could ntt diennt from the character which the hos. gad gallant striations bad given of these offimen. From the governor town to the master last appo.nted, they wen all care lest and meritorious officers ; and if they were nand in review, not one would be found who had dose and suffered more in the cause of their country than the go vernor and the Mut-pant-gen root. The governor had re ceived tee of thou, mot very numerous, bat valuable boons which were connected with the serene ; and, considering the heavy and responsib!e duties which he had to perform, he did not think that the appointment he held and hie half-pay together were more than • rallicient remuneration, and he should be sorry to vein any reduction. (Hear, hear.) But it was • different thing to env that there ought to be the same high grit. a for all the often employed then. The hon. and gallant gentlemen seemed satirely to forget the different, between' payment for aetual services end the retirement for past services per formed llog ago. The chaplain and surgeon., as well es the governor and linvenant-rovernor of Greenwich Hoepital, were employed actively, hour by hour, in the performance of their duties. The surgeons of Greenwich Hospital were lot app .inted to their offices as • retirement for pest ger vices ; they had to eserciss their surgical skill and know. ledge on the invalids and pensioners of the hoapitaL It might be that some of them had blood is the service of their country; but they were appointed for the performance of votive duties. Some 23 or 24 rue ago, an act rit parliameet was passed regulating the ea ariu of the governor and lieutenant gover nor, whin were flied low on amount of their having half pay. A mistake bad been made as to the actual eulogist re seised by those officers. If those positions were not thought desirable, his Si. would not be BO full of applications r them. The ditties were of a very trifling character ; and where any tetra duty was required, finial payment was made. The Ealf-pay of • vice admiral was 6931. a-year ; a captain of Greenwich Hospital received 4001. • year, anti had apartments found him, which might be north 24 Runes' a week. On this estimate the emoluments of a captain at Greenwich Hospital amounted to 6961. a year, or 21. a year more than the half-pay of a via-admiral. Catania SCOSELL—No, no ; I have the return here. Sir C. WOOD—So have I. (A laugh) Adding the allowances to the 4001., it amounted to 6961. The half pay of • rear-odmirel was 4661. • year; the retired *Bowmen of a commander In Chthowiels Hospital were worth 4921 A lieutenant In Greenwich had 4221. • while a captain in the navy had only 36M, and a retir ed captain's half-pay was *sly 2641. This comparison showed that the allowances wore on • very liberal scale. It was not in the power of the Admiralty without the sanction of the Treasury to grant thee* clime half peg ; sod ft wee • mis take to an that it had been derided in • mart of law that half pay wad timely • reward for put movie's, and net • retainer for future serviem. The fact wu, it was both, and bad been so recognised by the courts. These officers at Oneswieh limpital had never yet remind half pay ; and it wee the rale of the service that half pay should not be given along with allowances for service's. Were this motioa acceded to, many ether oaken receiving allowances might pat in a similar clefs. With reepeet to old commanders, the bon. and gallant gunthmeet named to have forgotten that upwards of 11,0001. had :Wentz been voted by the boom for additiosal pep te this else, of Moen; but it had been sacutaleed that eat of spiterie ef SW very few iodise' ware entitled to the aidideael Massages propoe' d to be gives.

The old oilmen had received their half pay for 40 years without settles; sem- Mosel mgmentatioss had bees made; and be saw no result why any farther increase should be wade is their half-pay. He had actually done more for the asatmadere than they asked is their memorial; and he thought the hove ought not now to be calied on to plan them In a won favourable p lonian Bar C. NAPIER said the naval lonise( the Admiralty had WIN time ago made a dispensing order is their own favour, cabling dorm to receive their half-psy in addition to their salaries. If the principle was right in their cue, why should it nut apply to all often? The comparison of the right he.. harmed between via-admiral aced septa/us at Green with was not • fair one, because the former were es the active list. He knew of no officers except those at One-- wish who did cof receive their half. pay in addition to their salaries. They were in a mat pitiable position; they were placed in largo apartments wittiest a shilliag la the world ; sad • large:expenditure was unavoidable. Oen ral of them officers had received many and severe wounds, and Me reward they got wag too little for all they suffered. He could not on any just monad for the dirinction which wee made between the higher and the lower officers, except that perhaps the firmer had wore aflame to push their Interests at the Adairait).

To.pacessw—Norslas. 7b. 10a. &Ammo% 70.700. granting that at first sight the suggestion does not appear to be an unreasonable one, we will ven ture to predict that the more it is examined the more unnecessary and unpopular will the establishment of two sees in this metropolis become. The sound principle, we are convinced, for the Church itself, is to regard the Act of 1840, with its subsequent modifications, 1111 a permanent settlement of the English episcopate and dioceses se to number, and not to be continually proposing the creation of new sees. Those who know bishaps best know very well that they are by no means over worked personages; few of them have business enough to require • resident secretary's aid ; none hold visitations more than once in three years ; and the extent to which church building and endowment has of late years been carried is evidence enough that we do not require more bishops to stimulate the vo hintary principle amongst the laity of the Church. The population of the diocese of London is no doubt large; but the extent of its territory is small, the num ber of benefices and of clergy is not proportioned to its population, the faci titles ofoommunioation are unusually great, and the moral and intellectual condition of the diocese generally is very high. AU these are conside rations which are adverse to the idea of dividing the see of London. The true way of meeting the cue of London appears to be in another direction. Confine the diocese to the metropolis simply ; cat away all the country parts which now belong to it, give them to other sees, and make the Bishop of LONDON Bishop of the Capital only. But infuse life and vi gour into the Cathedrals of Westminster and Bt. Paul; place their Deans really and substantially ender the Bishop's directions and control; make them his sabordinuate fuotionaries ; assign districts to their dependent care and supervision. If that be not adequate assistance, go farther; increase the num ber of Archdeacons in the diocese; pay them; make them effective aids to the Bishop. In short, organise the See of London before you talk of dividing it. That done, we shall have no need of two Bishops in the Metropolis, one presiding in the East over its poverty and its squalor, the other associated in the West with all its pomp and its wealth ; the Eastern Prelate living oat of society, in a house in White chapel, which the other would scorn to midi in; the Western Prelate with a palace at Fulham and a hotel in Bt. hmes'e-equate which the wealthiest of our temporal pens may envy. No; that would be a step backward in Ecclesiastical Reform. Better far stand firmly by Lord JOHN Russat.t.'s Aot of 1840. iMmo LONDON, WEDNASD4Y, JULY 9. As Mr. WILSON has now introduced the Appro priation of Supply Bill, the Session cannot, we pre sume, last much longer i though how it fa to be wound up by the day the organ of the Treasury sub ordinates has fixed—viz., the 24th inst.—is not very apparent. However, we suppose Mr. BATTIK knows what he is about, and the near approach of the time he has thus indirectly announced for the prorogation makes us more anxious than we were before about the measure for providing pensions to Dr. Btom. FIELD and Dr. MALTBY on their resignation of the sees of London and Durham, which Lord PALMER.. Brow, in reply to Mr. OrtEcsow, stated some ten days ago be intended to introduce. We admit that as yet Lord PALBEBBTON has not had an available moment in which to bring forward the Bill; and if the measure be referred to is one of a plain and simple character, limited to the oases of these two Prelates, and be not mixed up with other questions of grave and serious policy, there will no doubt be time enough to have it passed into a law before the Quaint prorogues ' the melon. But there are so many and such per- verse influences always at work on ecclesiastical sub jects that we should, we own, like to see the bill laid on the table of ass or other House of Parliament without any further delay. A local paper indeed insinuates, or suggests, that Dr. MALTBY is not pupated to resign duties and functions which he has long ceased to perform. We can hardly think so ill of the Bishop of Donnas as to suppose he would prolong his incumbency of that diocese it the face of an Act which would practically amount to a declaration of his incapacity, and to an invitation to him to retire. We are also rather disposed to doubt the accuracy of the sugges tion made es Dr. MALTBY'S behalf, for some time ago it was openly stated by his friends that he was de sirous of laying down the troublesome mitre; and though it was subsequently added that episcopal influence had induced him to withdraw the desire he had expressed, the very fact that he once contem plated such a step is, considering his great age and infirmities, as admission of incapacity amply 'efficient to provide him with a reseal for carrying out his own wiser and better wish. The Act once obtained, any hesitation by Dr. MALTBY to give the diocese of baths= and the Church of England the benefit of its provisions would bring to a crisis the far higher question of oompulsory resignation of incapacitated Bishops. As no corresponding hesitation has been ex premed on behalf of the Bishop of LONDON since Lord Fauna/rotes announognent, we may, we suppose, fairly assume—ace from a knowledge of his character we had anticipated would be the ass—that Dr. BLOYFIELD will retire from the see of London on a proper and sufficient pension being provided for hint. Rumour, however, alleges that one cause of the delay is the question of • division of the present see of London into two dioceses—London and West minster; and that a serious effort will be made to prevail upon Lord PautsISTON to introduce a bill to effect that object, along with the measure which be has promised. We hope that nothing of the sort will be attempted. The division of the see of Loudon is far too large a question to raise without pones within a fortnight or three weeks of the prorogation of the session ; and any attempt to raise it will involve the question of re signation and pension in a casuistical contro versy which in all probability will continue for other six or eight months Dr. BLONSIRLD and Dr. MALTBY on episcopal thrones for which they have unfortunately become unfit. Some of those who are most urgent for taking the present opportunity of dividing the see are, it is notorious, desirous to keep matters as they sow stand for the present, until they can get the subject brought before Convocation, and, having got an opinion from it, to parade it be fore the Queues Ministers and the Legislature as the Church's judgment and wishes. In this way they hope to introduce the principle of consulting Convoca tion on all ecclesiastical questions on which legislation Ungraded, and of making the proceedings in Cony°. cation the foundation of Imperial legislation. The advice et such men—of men who aim at securing for the Church and Convocation an existence sepa rate from and independent of the Btate—ought to be most studiously eschewed by Lad PALIIIRSTON. If, indeed, Lord PALMERSTON can only be preserved from or can withstand the political in flame* which these men can brie, to bear upon him, there is little fear of his giving way to their ecclesiastical schemes; for Lord Pauturrou is far too worldly and material • statesman not to know and appreciate the dagger of yielding sae jot to sacerdotal pretensions. But then Lord PALSIES. STOWS weak point as a Minister is, that, to secure political support, be will sacrifice principles; and, that being the case, we can never feel very secure as to what he will or will not do. However, the ten dency of things at present is to threw him more and morose the Liberal pasty for support, and there is same safeguard in that. A division of the me of Logdon is, we admit, a proposition on which Liberals may differ in °Onion, bat the division is not the question just new. - It Is whether there is either time or opportunity for sow& tiering that subject in the present session. Oa that we should think there can be no differ's°, of oriole's. But, if the question of the division ought not to be raised, ought we to have the Bill for presiding a retiring pension for Dr. BLONFIELD, and so securing his resignation, delayed by raising it prematurely ? Most assuredly not. Let us obtain that rrsignatlou• That is our first point. We have a Bishop who is incapacitated, and who is desires. of resigning. By all means let us give him the opportunity. By doing so, we shall at all omits be able to substitute an eflicieut prelate for one whose infirmities have rendered him ioefliciest; and so far be in a better position than that in which we are now plated. There can, however, be no possible objection to treat log the question of a division of the diocese as an open one, to be hereafter discussed and decided. Meanwhile, Dr. BLOXYIELD'II immediate sue censor weld be appointed, subject in all respects, as to duties, territorial jurisdiction, residences, patronage and income, to such legislation as Pulia meat might hereafter determine on.

EXPRESS FROM PARIS. (LYON °UN OWN CORUIESEONDENE.) PARIS, TUESDAY EVENING A telegraphic despatch brings news of the sudden death of M. Fortoul, the minister of public instruc tion and worship, which event occurred yesterday at Ems. It is reported that he dropped down dead while walking arm-in-arm with M. Magne, the minister of public works. M. Fortoul was little more than fifty years of age. He was, during many years of his life, a journalist, cod like many other men now in power, he was a member of that supposed impracticable sect, the St. Simonians. In early life he distinguithed himself greatly at the university, and he was successively appointed professor of literature at Toulouse and Aix. He was a native of the extreme south of France. think his birthplace was Digne, in the Department of the Buses Alpes. The fame of kis liberal principles procured him • seat in the National Assembly of 1848. He was, nevertheless, among the earliest un conditional adherents of Louis Napoleon's absolute power, and speedily met with his reward. He had considerable administrative power, but was not popu lar among the bishops—a fact which, perhaps, is attributable to his having retained a taint of St. Simonianism. His latest public act was to order that the subject of the Latin speech, to be pro. nounced at the coming distribution of prizes to the Lyceums of Paris, should be, "On the moral and social evils produced by an inordinate love of riches." On the subject of the political arrests at Sables d'Olonne, which I mentioned a, having taken place, I find the following in two local journals: The Journal des Sables d'Olonne, of July 3, uys:— Oa the let of this month a gieet sensation was produced in this town and also at Chenille, at ilia in the morning, by the al peareace of an armed torce much more considerable than we an accustomed to see. We shalt certainly not re peat all the town talk on the sul,i , ct. It is reported that domiciliary visits here been made in several housed by order of the perinea of Poitires and the Pre'ect of La Vendee. We know nothing positive either as to the reason for the step or the results that have gamed from it. The Echo Rochelais says:— It was known at Itithene On Wednesday miming that an affair which seems to be connectel with the Secret Society, the Mullane*, had otta•inned the arrival at Sables d'Olosaa ef • detachment of gendarmerie which bid been sent in all huts from Napoleon V. ndie. Several indivi duals employed in a large manufactory at Sables have been arrested, and measures have been taken by the tattle/ids' to 1 all the ramifications of the plot. This news hu been brougt.t here by some sailors and is generally reported. We give it, however, with reserve. Details ue wanting." The Imperial Court of Lyons, in spite of the ment of the Court of Cessation to the contrary, has decided that electoral bulletins may by law be circa. lated freely without any authorisation from the pre. facts. The conmquence is that the Court of Casea tion will be compelled to hear the question re-argued. The Bourse has been decidedly bad today. It was confidently said that the amount of bullion in the Bank of France cellars had considerably dimi. nisbed, and that no reduction in the rate of discount would be made this week. The ItFinte fell 45c. both for cub and account, closing at Tlfr. 2.5 c. aid 711 r. 60c. Credit Mobilier fell 22fr. 50c. The rail. ways were all considerably lower. Orleans fell 25e.; Eastern, 20c.; Lyons, 15c.; Mediterranean, 20c.; and Grand Central, 18c. The Orleans Railway Company hsa this day given notice that the circulation is re-established between Touts and Nantes. The Atones. de Calais says that the construction of a railway from that town to Boulogne-ear-Mer e which has been long talked of, has been decidedly resolved on, and that the Northern Company is to execute the Inc.

BY AN ITALIAN WHO IS NOT A NATIVE OF PIEDMONT. LETTER 111. Sta,—The only way of reconciling the Italians to their princes, and eatablirhing every where that order and peace which have made Piedmont a model state in Europe, is to leave the governments alone with their subjects. I certainly never entertained such sanguine hopes from the issue of the war in the East, never had so great a faith in the cordial understand ing between England and France, as to look for the complete deliverance of the Litho peninsula from Austrian thraldom u one of the pribable results of the late great European movement. I know very well that it is much easier to overthrow the whole empire of Austria than to wrench from it the whole or even part of its Italian provinces; and I know, moreover, that, were even thu Vienna statesmen prepared to re. linquish their hold, especially of Vance and of her territory as far aa the Adige or Minot°, the whole of Germany would rise in detence of her' natural from. tier," and France itself, no matter under what govern. ment, would with all its might oppose anything like the unity, or even union, of a state, or even of a fede ration of truly independent states, inl , he north of Italy. But I really thought, since the Crimean war had at least succeeded in crippling Russia, and de. privieg the great northern league of despots of its main stay—l thought that the least England and France could achieve at the Paris Conferences would have been a return to the ideas and principles of 1815; that south of the Po, as well as west of the Ticino, there would be—as there was to be—an independent Italy. I thought that the rights of Austria with regard to the non-Austrian provinces and states of Italy would be clearly defined—that strong and decisive measures would be taken , first to undo with a.l practicable speed all that Austria had done Circe 1815 in sheer viola tion of the treaties of that year, and then to put an end for ever to all her further progrers in that direction. Titers is not a men living that can flitter himself that peace is really restored in Italy, or in Europe either, till tree° matters are brought to a clear understanding, for there would re e ky be infinitely less danger to Europe, and infinitely tees suffering iet Italy, it all the &tenter', the Roman State'', and the Two Sicilies, were reduced to the condition of the Lombardo-Venetian kingdom, and incorporated with the Austrian empire, than if they continue under a specious independ. nce which makes them groan under two yokes inst. ad of one. Take, as an instance, the little duchy of Firma, A man of the most worthless and abindoned character, Carlo Lodovico, "runs away with the spoons," de secs in the moat cowardly and ignominious manner, after a great deal of blustering and bullying, his small state of Lucca. and picots over to Parma, where he is entitled to reign by right divine; that is. because three hundred years ago a Pope, Pant ILL, disposed of the free mate of Patois and Piamoza in favour of his hostel d, Pier Luigi Farness; and because after the nacentines had murdered that hideous monster, other bastards and hideous monsters of the same family were set over the same people and kept there by the combioed might of the Empire and the Popedom, and continued to reign and govern the duchy, while they crushed its nobility by whole- sale murders, prosoriptions, and confiscations, and ground the people, shocked and degraded them by the example of the most unblushing profligacy ; till they at last all died off by sheer bodily impotent* brought about by indulgence in the must shameful vices. Well, that first race of Pope's bastards being happily extinct, their sacred rights passed over to Spanish Bourbons, towards the middle of the last century, and by virtue of the same sacred rights 1 that Carlo Ludovico who had been hissed out of Lucca, that Carlo Ludovioo, cine-tenthe 1
