LONDON, SATURDAY, JULY 18. Mary months have passed away since the Roman Quedionbecame a "dropped"subject for the English press. M. Mixoarrri, and his colleagues, feel this Roman question to be purely one of Right against Force, and they believe that the silent patience of Right must sooner or later prevail. There 51 a strength in this attitude of proud and calm expecta tion, and we have too much faith in moral forces to doubt of the ultimate triumph of • just cause. Yet we have even • livelier faith in that " il " exorable logic" of which the French Govern. went is so fond of talking, and which is already rendering the position of the French protectors of the Temporal Power and the French soldiers of the Pore intolerably odious and absurd in the face of the civilized world. Now ridicule, we know, is no laughing matter for sag French Government. A recent incident in the harbour of Genoa, which has attracted attention in France and Italy, seems calculated to make this ridi• cute and this odium still more sharply felt. A few weeks since, after the French elections in town and country had pronounced unmistakeably against the foreign and domestic policy of the Second Empire, the French Government began to lecture the Court of Rome , sharply on the inconvenience and imprudence of its doing the dirty work of the Neapolitan Bona- Bola, arming and blessing and equipping the cut throats and marauders who sallied forth from the precincts of the Vatican to commit crimes at which humanity shudders, under the joint patronage of his Majesty Fasiveis 11., and his Ham- Ness. For two years and more, as all the world knows, and as the British Parliament was again and again informed on official authority, the "brigands" have been organized by agents of the Papal Court and by officers of Fazzteis IL, under cover of a French army and of a French police, before the eyes of French generals, and with the full knowledge and assent of the Frenih Government. Repeatedly has the Government at Turin complained of the abuse of French protection, and requested the EMPEROR to cease to lend his countenance to practices which would justify reprisals. These appeals were politely listened to and forgotten, and month after month, year after year, the Papal-Bourbon bri gandage went on by permission of the EMPEROR. At length, after the elections, the consc;ence of the Imperial Government woke up, and one fine morning Murrain', the chief of the Botritsox brigand army, was arrested at Rome and lodged in prison by the French police, and with him several of his aides and associates. So active has the French police at Rome become of late in hunting out and seizing the villains it has harboured for two years past, that the headquarters of brigandage are utterly routed and broken up, their funds ex hausted by mutual thieving, and their occupation gone ; even Fitzricis 11. himself and all his court are on the point of throwing up the game, and decamping to Bavaria or Bohemia. The tardy but decisive action of the French authorities has almost persuaded the Italians to believe once more that their great ally was a misunderstood man and more honest than he seemed. Renewed confidence in the good in tentions of the EMPEROR has taken the form of excessive zeal in one instance, and re sulted in the untoward occurrence at Genoa. It appears that five of the most noto rious and bloodthirsty of the brigands upon whom the French police had lately laid hands, were shipped for Spain in one of the steamers of the French Messageries Imperiales, and furnished with Pontifical and French passports. No sooner had the Audis come to an anchor in the port of Genoa than news flew through the city that these five criminals were on board. Presently the Governor of the town proceeded to the French Consulate to demand an authorization to seize them. But before matters could be arranged with tle Consul, the steamer was observed to be pre paring to proceed to sea again. She was instantly surrounded and boarded, and the five bri gands arrested and conveyed on shore be , fore the proceedings at the Consulate were completed. The Consul very properly acceded to the request of the Governor ; but the actual arrest had taken place without waiting for his autho. rization or the Governor's. There way therefore, a superficial informality in the manner and 'moment of the act of seizure, but an informality susceptible of the simplest and most satisfactory explanation, and absolved in substance if not in form by the authorisation of the French Consul, which arrived too late. The people at Genoa and throughout Italy were natu rally delighted at the arrest of five men who were not, except in a BOURBON sense, political offenders, but common thieves and mur derers of the blackest dye. Probably there was also a feeling of satisfaction at this unusual evidence of goodwill on the part of the French Govern ment, and of independence on the part of the Turin Government. Probably the Genoese were pleased at the resolute act of their own prefect. And will it be believed that in France this arrest of five cutthroats in an Italian harbour, is regarded as an insult to the French flag ; as almost another " Trent affair ;" and that even French liberal journals are so blinded by that false national vanity and that false point of honour which are the curse of their country, as to insist on reparation for the offence ? Such is the latest but not the last incident of the Roman question, as between France and Italy. Or Court. OSBORNE, JULY 17.

The reports yesterday were more favourable, although his lordship suffered a good deal of pain. The afternoon party given by the Marchioness of Westminster yesterday was fully attended, considering the advanced state of the season, and the great number of mem bers of the fealtionable world who have already left town.

The royal commission appointed to consider the best means of improving the Royal Academy has presented its report. It recommends that the forty academicians should be raised to sixty, among whom should be eight architects and ten laymen ; that the associates should be increued by thirty, sod have a vote in the governing body ; that the president should be elected by the governing body, and be assisted by a council of eleven ; that en ho norary clam should be added of artiste from all countries ; and that another should be formed of art workmen of dis tinguished eminence. The academicians, moreover, are to exhibit only four pictures instead of eight, and the Academy should either have the whole of the Natiooal Gallery or migrate to Burlington House.

ACCIDENT ToStaCit IGS.SW ELL CIIESSW et.L.—Yester day afternoon about 6 o'clock, as Lord Aveland's carriage was driving through St. Jamees-park, just before it came to Stafford House, the axletree broke, and the wheel coming off the horses took fright, and, overpowering the wartime, came in collision with Sir Cromwell Creeswell, and knocked him off his home while on his way home from the Court of Divorce. The learned judge was immediately assisted by the bystander*, and it was found that be had sustained a very serious injury to the knee. He was at once placed in • cab and 000veyed home. The carriage of Lord Aveland became almost • wreck, and both coachman rod footman were much shaken by the accident, but oo danger was apprehended. THE EILICLISSIMITICAL COMILIPAION.--The select committee of the House of Commons which was appointed in the early part of this sessioo to inquire into the working of the Ecclesiastical Commission, has at length presented its report. The report recognises broadly the failure of the commission to satisfy the objects of its incorporation, traces that failure to sources, and suggests several practic..l remedies. The first is the delegation of one branch of its f ume d., to an independent authority ; the second is the re constitution of the existing commission, for the more eEi• dent exercise of the powers which it is to retain. They are of opinion that the management of ecclesiastical property and the application of surplus revenues to the wants of destitute parishes should be vested in two separate bodies. Discerning that a corporation comprising all the bishops in England awl Wales. all the chief justice., and "other per sons of distinction" to the number of more than fifty, is ill qualified for the business of land agency, they gem , mend th►t these duties should be transferred to a board consisting of one unpaid and two paid commissioners. The former, anoordiog to their plan, would have a seat in parliament, and one of the latter would he an experienced barrister ; but purely legral questions would be referred to an advising counsel with a fixed salary. With reprd to all the other functions now discharged by the Ecclesiastical Commission, the committee think it ex• pedieut that " local associatioas in each diocese, composed of clergy sod laity." intimately acquainted with the spiritual wants of each neighhourhood, should perform some of the duties. Until this scheme of co-operation can be carried out, the committee recommend that the distribution of the funds in question should be committed to the gover nors of Queen Anoe's bounty. LATEST INTELLIGENM (REITITR'S TILIORAIM) THE RUSSIAN REPLY ON THE POLISH QUESTION. PA KIS, JULY 18. According to information published by the Courrier du Dimauthe, the reply of Mazda is marked by a decided spirit of conciliation, although not forgetful of the dignity of a great empire. Prince Gortchakoff is said to declare that the sit points are in accordance with the intentions of the Russian government. _ . _ With regard - to an armistice, Russia, obeying superior considerations, deems it impossible to defer to this wish. She, however, accepts the pro posal of a conference in principle. FRESH LEVY OF RUSSIAN TROOPS. ST. PETERSBURG, JULY 18. An imperial decree has been published which, in view of the present state of affairs, orders a fresh levy of troops in November next, at the rate of 10 men for every 1,000 of the population. forgery was so ingeniously executed that he would, doubtless, have got the money but for the fact that it bad been already paid to the holder of the genuine ticket, M. Buquet, a tradesman of Pontoise. I take this opportunity of stigmatising the scandal- OW, encouragement which the french government gives to lotteries. They were abolished long ago in principle, as immoral things tending to cbouse the poor out of their scarce pence, and foster a spirit of gambling. But various exceptions to the rule have been admitted of late years. Charitable pretexts advocated by priests first introduced the thin end of the wedge ; and now for many years past the windows of all the tobacconists shops have never been free from a display of tickets offering the chance of a large fortune for a small sum. The success of poor Lamartine (after the failure of many other devices to raise the wind) in relieving his necessities by a lottery at twopence halfpenny the ticket, has emboldened other specu lators who have not failed to obtain government permission to practise upon public credulity. A lottery office now boldly advertises the " 25 cen time ticket" as one of the greatest of modern dis coveries, and holds it up to admiration as a national institution, with as much confidence as Jefferson Davis does slavery. Every newspaper contains advertisements, exhorting people to gain 100,030 franca for 25 centimes, and mentioning the names of people who have won, in order to excite cupidity, and represent that opulence would be the rather probable consequence than otherwise of taking a single ticket. In the case of this very Montene grins lottery 5C0,000 francs (supposing all the tickets to have been sold) have bees raised front the public, and of this large sum only 125,000 f. (just one quarter) has been distributed in prizes. What becomes of the rest of the mo ney 1 Nobody knows. And what is the Montene grine lottery ? Nobody knows ; or at least not a single Paris journal has ever given any explanation about it, and Ido not believe that any journal dares at this moment to give any explanation about it. In the next meeting of the Corps Legislatif, supposing no step to be taken in the meantime to crush by violent and illegal means that liberty which is now raising its head, a question will probably be asked on this subject. Then perhaps the public will learn for whose benefit it is that the poor and ignorant, the needy and embarrassed have been stimulated to dissipate their savings or increase their debts, by daily advertisements dinning into their ears the figures representing fabulous wealth, but sinking the fact that the chances were four millions to one against every ticket. ITALY. MEXICO. ENTRY OF GENERAL FOREY INTO THE CITY OF MEXICO. PARIS, JULY 18. The Emperor has received the following despatch, brought by one of his orderly officers from Mexico : "Juarez, fearing capture, took to flight and hastened with some troops in the direction of San Luis Potosi. General Bazaiue then occupied Mexico, and the general -in - chief entered the city on the 10th June at the head of the army, accompanied by the French minister and General Almonte. The enthusiasm was at its height during General Forey's triumphal march through the city, in the midst of 200,000 in habitants cheering for the Emperor, the Empress, and the French intervention. The success of the French has produced a great effect throughout the country. I am charged to present to the Emperor five flags and thirteen banners taken in different combats at Puebla. The keys, in silver, of the city of Mexico, have been offered to the Emperor by the municipalities, in a letter addressed to the general-in-chief." A small rifled cannon, taken at Puebla, is offered to the Prince Imperial by the army of Mexico. The following telegram has been received at Mr. Reuter'e office from the Peninsular and Oriental Steam Navigation Company : THE BOMBAY MAIL. SATURDAY, JOLT 18. The Valetta, with the Bombay mail of the 24th June, left Malta on the 16th inst., at 6 p.m. The Ellora, with the heavy portion of the mail, left at midnight. She may be expected at South ampton about the 25th. The Saleette brought the mail to Suez, arriving there on the morning of the 12th. The Malta, with the London mails of the 12th and 18th of June, left Aden for Bombay on the 2ud instant. THE OUTWARD MAIL OF THE 26TH. The Simla, for Calcutta ; the Behar, for Chiva ; and the Madras, for Australia, left Point de Galle on the 19th June. EXPRESS FROM PARIS. THE RUSSIAN REPLY. (rzom oug ows oogasarogrozsr.) PARIS, FRIDAY EVENING. The Russian answer arrived in Paris at 8 o'clock this morning. Baron de Budberg, the Russian ambassador, to whom it was, in due diplomatic course, addressed by Prince Cortthakoff, lost no time in seeking an interview with M. Drouyn de Lhuys, for the purpose of reading the despatch to him, and leaving him a copy. M. Drouyn de Lhuys was at st. Cloud, having been sent for by the Empress, and consequently the interview did not take place till half-past 3 this afternoon. Two journals, the France and the Nation—both opposed to war and inclined to put the most favourable con struction upon the Russian despatch—profess to know the substance of its contents. Here is the version of the France: The Russian answer is strongly imbued with the spirit of conciliation ; it adhere, in principle to the six points pro posed by the three powers. observing at the same time that as to macy of them the sovereign initiative of the Emperor Alexander has already anticipated the wishes of Europe. We are also assured that Prince Goetchakoff accepts the proposal of a conference, suggesting, however, that it is desirable that the subjects to be discussed should not be confined to Poland alone. There remains the question of the armistice. U we are rightly informed, this is the sole point upon which there is not a complete accord between the cabinet of St. Petersburg and the three intervening powers ; but inasmuch as the armistice might be effected under cir cumetances in no way contrary to the dignity of the Empe ror Alexander, and is imperatively called for in the inte rests of humanity as well as from political considerations, we cannot believe that the cabinet of St. Petersburg will oppose to it a systematic refuse'. I have no doubt that the France has good information as to the contents of the despatch, and, assuming that to be so, it is, I think, already obvious that Russia is laughing at the three powers. She professes a readiness to negotiate about the six points, but refuses the most essential thing—the armistice. And I have reason to believe that this refusal, whatever may be the exact wording of it, is more categorical than the France would have it supposed. The Nation, which adds nothing substantially to the analysis of the France, puts the matter thus " Russia will not promise to take the initiative of an armistice with the Poles, whom she cannot recognise as belligerents." Another important point in the answer, and one which offers an impe diment to the proposed conference in limine, is that Russia desires to embrace other questions besides that of Poland in the discussion. She makes this condition, knowing that the three powers will not consent to it. Austria will not, for many reasons ; and France will not, if only because she knows that Russia would bring forward the annexation of Savoy and Nice as a breach of European law. I do not find in any of the papers a confirmation of the important news that the Emperor was coming from Vichy to St. Cloud to-night. It may, how ever, be true ; it was stated very positively in Bother's Correspondence. The Nation says, in reference to the various rumours about the reorganisation of Mexico, that the Emperor has not yet come to "any sort of decision" on the subject. This means naturally that the question of appointing a civil governor of the country, which it was said M. Hubert de Lisle was to be, still remains open. General Almonte's family, which has remained in Paris since the outbreak of the war, is now prepa r i ng to go out to him. This fact gives colour to the rumour that he into be made a leading man under the French protectorate. The Bourse is weak, but exhibits no anxiety on the subject of war. Rents only fell 10c., and Credit Mobilier but 12fr. 50c. A man has been arrested in Paris for forging the winning number of a ticket for 100,000 f. in the Montenegrin lottery which waa lately drawn. The THE CAPTURED BRIGANDS. (nom out cmg coaanrcarbizer.) TURIN, JULY 14. - - The arrest of the five Neapolitan brigands on board the French steamer Annie, in the port of Genoa, has led to an exchange of official commu nications between the French and Italian govern ments. The latter says :—" These brigands are my subjects ; they ought to answer to justice for ordinary crimes, for that they are notorious assas sins and thieves is undoubted. We asked for their surrender in virtue of extradition treaties. Your consul in Genoa assisted us in claiming them from the captain of the Annie, and therefore we have neither outraged your flag nor violated your terri tory, but have simply asked for and obtained an act of justice and redeemed your flag from the disgrace of having sheltered assassins.' M. Drouyn de Lbuys, vexed, it would seem, at the fact being incontestably proved that the Pope and the French government give assistance to the brigands, replies that the Italian government ought to be grate! ul to France for removing these brigands to a distance, and that in this case their character is of no moment. The only question to be con sidered is the right of asylum on French territory, and he adds that the French consul has failed in his duty, and that the five travellers ought to be I given up, subject to s future decision as to their real character and the application in their case of extradition treaties. The Italian government re plies in substance to this :—" It is not for us to decide whether your consul has served you well or ill ; the fact remains that we have acted legally, having obtained his consent. Moreover, we would observe that Cipriano La Gala and his brother were not ar rested under your flag at all. They were arrested after they had jumped into the sea, and were then within the limits of our jurisdiction. In their case, therefore, you can scarcely invoke the inviolability of the French flag." Diplomacy is always fertile in meri termini, and it now proposes that the prisoners shall be given up on the ground of having been illegally arrested, and that France shall afterwards surrender them again to satisfy extradition obligations, it being evident that they are ordinary assassins whose crimes are known and patent to all the world. Among the proposals made is the arbitration of a third power such as England or Belgium. Mean while it seems certain that France will be unable to take up this matter very warmly, the character of the men for whom she pleads being a fact which cannot be altogether disregarded. To protect such cruel and such disreputable assassins would render toy go vernment unpopular. . . . . . The rumours of ministerial modifications are without foundation. A M. Borlet, of Savoy, bas just been tried for deserting bis wife. lfe pleaded not guilty, and raised • question which, if it had bees established, would have ruined the domestic economy of many families. The ac cused was stone deaf, and justice had to be administered through • tube. " Were yon married to the woman Bor k'," " Well, yes." "And that's she r " Yee, but she's not my wife." "On what grounds do you say that ; your certificate is en rijte r " May be, but she's no wife of m i c e." "Your reason " Well, you see, since we were married we have been annexed." The judge, however, for tunately for the peace of many families, declined to esta blish the point that the annexation of Nice and Savoy can celled all the previous marriages. A Paris correspouiient writes :—" The unusual beat of this mouth has, along with the efforts of the Countess de Castiglione, caused • salutary change in the fashions. Stays, for the present, are thrown aide, and re placed by the more becoming crinture Suisse. Neither dote • tight body form any longer as indispensable portion of • lady's dress. It is replaced by • loose one of white muslin or coarse linen worked in imitation of the bodices worn by the peesauts of the Romagna. Loose silk jackets am also greatly worn. It is possible that this style of dress will continue a long time in fashion, the doctors of the Empress having advised her Majesty to imitate the style of dress recently adopted by Madame de Castiglione, wbu, like nearly all her countrywomen, holds pinched waists in aver sion, and, whatever mistake* she may make in other mat.. ten, has the good sense to believe that stays must prodoos • red nose or • sallow complexion and glandular swellings in the neck." The Antigua papers just come to band report that the French brig Perseverance, bound from Macao to Havana with upwards of 100 Chinese immigrants, was wrecked off Barbuda. The crew and immigrants were sewed and reached Antigua. The Chisels, A appears, learnt that their fate it Havana would be little better than that of slaves, and they refused therefore so proceed with the French captain, and have hired themselves out to the Antigua planters. • Lieutenant Tragett, of the 57th Infantry, who was murdered by the Mamie* of New Zealand, in their recent outbreak in the Taranaki district. was the son of the Rev. Mr. Tragett, of A wbridge, near Romsey, in Haute. The new postage law iu the United States came into operation on the Ist Met. Letters am be sent now from New York to California, a distance of 5,000 miles, for three halfpence. The whole of the white population of the Con federates States numbers 4,686,800.

I MI KS M. E. BRADDON AND HER FIRST WORLD Yesterday (Friday), at the Hull BuikruMcy Court, before Mr. Judge Raines, a bookseller anZ publisher named Empson, formerly of Beverley, in the East Rid ing, and now of Mytoogate, Hull, applied for his &s -elvage. The bankrupt's debts amounted to a little above 260/., and in the course of his examination it tram pired that in the year 1860 be carpel bliss M. E. Brad doe (the authoress of " Lady Audley s Secret " and "Aurora Floyd") to write a novel for him, entitled "Three Times Dead, or the Secret of the Heath." Miss M. E. Braddock ins at this time ao actress at the Royal Queen's Theatre, Hall e and playti under the name of Mirk Seytoo. She wrote the intrcluctioss to the pantomimes, and this brought her under notice, sod while she was staying at Beverley Parks she pubbalied occasional poems, which caused Mr. Empeon to enter into an arrangement for her to write a novel. ...Three Times Dead" was Miss Brarldon's first literary effort, and although it Wel highly senntioaal, and above 24;ll. was expended in getting it out, the work proved • failure, and to this cause Mr. Empeon partly attributed his bankruptcy. Since 18.0 Miss Brarblon had been in London, and what success her literary efforts have achieved is matter of public notoriety. Mr. Judge Ra'oes said if Miss Brad don had made 8.6301. out of her works, she could surely afford to assist the man who published her first work, and who had teeme bankrupt through doing so. Mr. &opens said he had not the slightest ex pectatioua from Miss Brad. don. The nun of the failure of ' Three Times Dead " was that London publishers invariably attempted to crush works published iu the provinces. There being no opposi tion to the binkrupt, he was allowed to pass his examinatioa, god an order of discharge was emoted. - Lads Mercury.

OUlt MODILIIN YOUTH. —Nil admirari is shwa necearutly the motto of such a school. It has been at an times the resource of fools aping wisdom ; but now we believe it is not • mere atfectatiou, but • sadly-genuine state of feeling. Various causes have combined to wither the poetic element in the young mite!, end with it naturally decays the faculty of adroit ation, the source of some of our truest enjoyments and most elevating emotions. The youngest can rarely be content now to see, and feel, nod enjoy ; they mutt also, or rather first, judge, compare, and criticise- a process all the more rapid the fewer the grounds possessed for compariem and judgment. Many would nem to have been born old. so completely has the gloms of life wort oaf hefore the fulness of life has been even tasted.

They see the grandeur of nature, or the marvels of art, or the triumphs of science, and they may appmce, but not wonder; they may express a judgment, but not ask a question ; they may be eatisfied, and gratify science or nature by saying so, but not he wrought into that state in which fuller minds feel overwhelmed by the presetce of the sublime, arid yield themselves with it sense of fuller life to the emotion which finds no utterance. Never, perlispe,were such varied exciteinetits presented to eye and ear as in the present day ; bet it would seem that, in the absence of the pure and simple spirit of enjoyment, the ex citement itself is the sole object. It is not the music, or the scenery, or the riding which is the attractioe, bat the party with whom these pleasures are to be es dyed, and the dinner or the dress involved, according as it is male or female imagination that dwells upon the prospect. It follows that there is little medium between excitement and ennui ; and that the latter quickly resumes its sway till some new thing awakens s moment's curiosity, or promises some fresh stimulus.— Forscr's Mayaz,ne for July., I) 1
