SATURDAY EVENING, MAY 9, 1857. these words could be taken aa being well weighed, it would follow that if France should obtain by negotiation what she wants for herself, she would not join with England in a war for any such general purpose as that of introducing civilisa tion into China, or even for the more specific object of establishing European diplomatic mimic= at Pekin. The French government would then be acting according to the policy advocated by the Assemblle, which has lately repeated several times that beyond protecting its own subjects and the catholic religion France has no special interest in China, and that whatever commercial advantages England may obtain must of necessity tend to the benefit of all other European nations. The Assemilh founds the latter opinion both upon the general prin ciples of England's recent commercial policy, and elm upon the fact that an attempt to obtain exclusive trading privileges in China would provoke a coali tion against her. It is, however, argued by many that the Ifonitenr, when it speaks of Baron Oros having received an " analogous mission" to that of Lord Elgin, and says that the two plenipotentiaries " will mutually aid each other in the negotiations confided to them," must mean to say that they are acting with a view to attain a common purpose. It may be, however, that they are oily going to a cer tain extent along the same road, and that one L e. .. rt . ytay diverge sooner than the other. The of the Meniteur is cautious, and I am fa 7 .. 5 . - sure that it means at bottom anything more than what the Coosatitutionsel says. It ermines, indeed, a belief that "a new field will be opened to Christian civilisation and the commerce of all nations " by the mom of the negotiations ; bat it does not in terms say anything about combined action of the forces of the two countries. Still it most be admitted that the paragraph in the Moroi tevr is calculated to induce the belief that France and England are perfectly agreed in the object of the demonstration in China, and it was doubtless worded with the intention of producing that impres sion. It will be well, however, not to lose sight of the explanation of the Coeutigutionsol, which may possibly be an indiscreet revelation. English states men cannot moon forget what happened in the Rue gen war, and must be prepared, in all future joint enterprises with France, to find themselves left alone ell at once. ROMAN STATES. A letter from Rome of the 28th ult., in the Riaor pimento, says —" The Sardinian frigate Oovernolo has arrived at avita Vecchia, at the disposal of the Empress of Ramie. The Italian colours displayed by this vessel caused some excitement, and on the following morning the police found a number of re volutionary placards stuck up at the street corners, in which the aid of Piedmont was invoked for the liberation of Italy." A grand banquet was given at Stockholm, an the 18th ult., in the great hall of the Exchange, to Y. Schiran, vice-president of the Chamber of Citizens, 140 perms sitting down to table. A toast in favour of was drunk with enthusiasm. M. &chino, in the course of a speech which he made, asserted that a great common enemy (Ruda) menaced alike the three northern kingdoms and Ger many ; that it was in the interest of the latter to favour the progrees of Scandinavian ideas. lie con cluded by stating that the greet battle between liberty and despotism would be fought—net on the Beephorm—but on the fields of Germany.

The Grand Duke Constantine is redly going to Lon don. The Nord of Brussels states that an invitation tram the Queen , t ransmitted by Lord Cowley, has been sooepted ; and, on inquiry, I learn that the news is true. It is said that the Grand Duke will go from Cherbourg by sea to visit the Queen at Osborne. The Oland Duke and waits left the Tuileries at 10 o'clock this morning in three travelling carriages and four, with postillions in bag wigs, to visit Versailles and the Military School of St. Cyr. Hie imperial highness breakfasted at Trianon. A telegraphic apparatus has been fitted up in the Grand Duke's apartments in the Pavilion Mersin in the Tuileries, by means of which he can com municate instantly at any moment with his brother the Emperor of Russia. The management of the Exhibition of the Beaux Arta, it is said, is occupied in preparing a provisional exhibition at the Palace of Industry, for the inspee tics of the Grand Duke Constantine. For that pur- pose all that are considered as the beet productions of painting and sculpting are being collected in one plane. Queen Christina and the Duke de Ruin:arm hams arrived in Paris from Rome. The Pain's says that the departure of the Ando:knee with Baron Gros is at present used for a day from the 12th to the 16th of this month. Several transport' will start at the salmi time ander convoy of the Andaciense.

The different ministries do not know what is really doing, and this amounts for the conflicting paragraphs of the government journals. The exact wording of the note in the Mositesir, to which I called attention yesterday, is now more than ever worthy of being scanned. It will be observed that it contains no paragraph anejogous to that in the Queen's speech, which speaks of the plenipotentiary being supported by a military force, if necessary. A letter frees Toulon, of the loth, corroborating pro taste the Me sites, de la Retie bat betraying at the same time a change of purpose, states that the embarkation of a corps of marines, which was to have gone to China in the Yam, has been postponed. A letter from Algiers of May 4 states that the concentration of tri;ps continual, - and it is generally thought that operations will commence on the 18th of May by an attack on Beni-Rates, the most peer erftd of the hostile Ashyle tribes. . . News has been received from Mexico. Although the negotiations are reported to be going on favour ably, no definitive decision of the difference with Spain his yet been come to. M. Lefrague, the Mexican envoy, is still in Paris, and he will not go to Madrid until the further instructions which he expects arrive. The Bonne today has undergone unusual fluctua tions. At the opening the Rents was very firm, but in eeneequestm of reports that the new Bank of Franco project meets with serious opposition in the Council of State, the Rents, which had opened with an improvement of 20e., at Mgr. 50e., dropped to GO& Ws. Then there was a sadden rally, owing to a rise el j in Gomm* and more cheering accounts of the Landon money market, but afterwards the market became feverish again, and the Rents closed with a fall of Sc. for cash, and at yesterday's price (806. 30c.) for account. It is to be expected that so long as the Bank of France question reenabas unsettled, the market will be frequently &turbid by reports of doubtful authenticity. The railways left off lower.

Ili THE CAPE OF GOOD HOPE. (IT ILICTILIC TELEOMPIL) FALMOUTH, BArcarmr. The screw steamer Tynemoeth, Captain Steaks, arrived at Falmouth yesterday evening, from Cal cutta, for London. She left the Caps of Goal Hope on the 13th March ; St. Helena, 22nd ; and A/0011110 . 0, 29th ; will coal, and proceed. She has passengers--Mn. Ashton Key, from Calcutta ; Mr. Stokes, from Madras, Mr. Braithwaite and children, from Ceylon, Mr. Wells, R.N., from Ascension. Tho Tynemouth has landed km mails. The latest intelligense from the frontier led to a general impression that hostilities are inevitable. ARRIVAL OF THE HEAVY PORTION OF THE AUSTRALIAN MAILS. (sr neer= TALIORATII.) SOUTHAMPTON, FRIDAY none. The Etna has arrived with the Australian mails. Amongst them is the mail of the Oneida. The collective mail consists of nearly 400 boxes and bags, the largest mail ever landed at this port. They will be despatched to London at about 11 p.m. to-night, in a special train consisting of five vans. The Etna has 80 passengers and 28 packages of gold, of the value of nearly 90,0001. sterling ; nearly 60,0001. of this gold was on board the Oneida. Nearly 100 of the pamengers left the Etna at Malta, to tot g England via Marseilles. the passengers landed at Southampton from the Etna were Miss Graham, a sister of Sir James Graham, from Malta; and Messrs. Childers and Hansel, two of the members of the Legislative Council of Victoria. The passengers who left Australia in the European are some of the richest men of the gold colony, and many of them possess immense fortunes. The Oneida broke down 800 miles from King George's Sound, her role plate, which is the founda tion of the whole machinery, having given way. Although she was only so short a distance— tru2, three days' steam—from St. George's it took her 17 days to get back, and she reached the Sound one day after the Simla had left. The weather was at the time very thick, which prevented the people of the Simla from see ing her. The charge for sending gold home overland is considered by the colonists too high, and it is thought that comparatively small quantities of gold will be sent by that route. The European, although a fast sailer, is considered not adapted for crossing the ocean, as she is fitted up for a cold climate. The Sydney passengers who were taken from the Oneida were 101 days from the time they left Sydney until they reached Southampton. The Australian passengers were detained three days in Egypt, owing to the European arriving at Suer three days before her time. The passengers have a large number of nuggets in their possession. They say that Sir Henry Barkly, the new governor of Victoria, has given much satisfaction to the colonies, and his lady has won golden opinions from all classes of persons. Everything augurs well for the suc cessful governorship of Sir Henry. The Etna reports that the British squadron was cruising off Malta, and that she paned the Indus steamer off Pantellaria on the 29th, bound for Alex andria. The Etna passed the steamer Tenerife off °alibi on the 30th of April.

LAW INTELLIGENCE. THIS DAY. COURT OF QUEEN'S BENCH. (Sitting,' at Mai Prise at Westminster, sitar Easter Teem, Ix tors Lord Campbell and Common Juries.) CHAPMAN V. VAN TOLL.-.-AMION FOR ATTORNEVA The plstotiff, an attorney carrying on business at Rich mond, brought this action against the defendant, a widow lady, Tieing in the same place, to recover 27/., for money lent and 44t, the amount of a bill o f costs for professional services. Mr. lawkins and Mr. C. Pollock were for the plaintiff ; and Mr. C. P. Doyle appeared for the defendant. The defendant, It appeared, in 1852, lent a Captain Roberts, of the Royal Marina, a sum of 1 0001 . upon a bond. He paid the interest for some time and also a small portion of the principal, but he eventually discontinued to keep up hie instalment a,and the defendant employed Mr. Chapman to bring an action egaind him for the recovery of the amount due. After the suit had progressed a stage, Captain Ro berts agreed to judgment being entered maul him, and it was arranged between the parties that the ewe should le referred to the Master to determine what sum Mrs. Van Toll was entitled to, and the Master derided that Captain Roberts was indebted to the extent of 7001., with 311. for costa. Proceedings were then taken to enforce the payment of those sums, when Captain Roberts became a bannkrupt, and obtained a cer . The defendant paid the 27/. into court, but as regarded the other AUM, the defence wee that the plaintiff had entirely mismanaged the suit, and by his dilatoriness had prevented the defend sot meowing the moneydue to her by Capt.

The alleged negligee:emanated principally in the plaintiff not having availed himself of the claim in the Common Low Prooedurc Act, whereby cases involving matters of account ' might bo decided by &judge at chambers.

THE POLICE COURTS. THIS DAY. GREENWICH. THIMAT/911110 LIPS BY MOOTING. Willem Carter, of Roan -street, Greenwich, was charged before Mr. Seeker with creating a disturbance, and threaten ing to shoot Mrs. Susan Ho d ge of Wellington Cottage, Spring-gardens, Old Woolwic.l2-niad. It appeared that between 4 and 6 o'clock yederday after noon, the prisoner went to Wellington Cottsge, and on knocking at the door, Mrs. Storey, an old lady, and mother of the complainrmt, appeared, when prisoner, armed with a double barrelled gun, behaved in a most violent manner, 'eking what she had been saying about him and his wife. Mrs. &orey replied that ahe had not been saying anything Her danter (the complainant) then came to the door, when prisoner mid 'Then it wee you," and in the midst of foul and violent language pointed the gun at her, and said he would have her life. He also threatened to knock Mrs. Storey's brains not with the butt end of the gun. Tho females in much alarm then shut the door and the prisoner went away ; but between nine and ten o'clock in the evening again returned, ming the same violent language and threats. On en attempt Sc ts l made to shut the door the prisoner placed th e of the gun in the doorway, and attempted to form his way into the house with the gun in his hand. Prisoner, who waa drunk at the time, was at length ejected, and a ' constable sent for, into whose custody be was given. On marching him some perensidon caps were found in him pen erosion, and on examining the gun, it was found to be un leaded, with the interior of the barrels slightly rusty. Mr. Foggo, fur the prisoner, mid hie client lad no Inten tion to shoot either female, as was evident from the gun, an old and rusty one, not being loaded. The fact was he had been drinking. Mr. Seeker, addressing the prisoner. said his conduct wee very foolish—it was a soot of drunken bravedo. He should, therefore, convict him of being drunk and dotone, and order him to pay a penalty of 10s. or imprisonment fur 14 days. The money was paid. FALL OF TWO HOMES IX TOTTENHAM COUBT-BOAD.-(THIS DAY) This morning, between the hours of seven and eight o'clock, the following serious and melancholy acci dent occurred at the premises of Messrs. Maples, upholsterers, 144. Tottenham-court•road. As far as could be gleaned, during the homy and eonfusion, the following arc the forte - -Adjoining Messrs. Maples' premiers Mr. Hunter, a person carrying on a similar business, resides, and about Ma months ago a fire broke out at the house of the latter, which had been recently rebuilt. In building, it le now conjectured that the party wall was somewhat misplaced. Messrs. Maples bad bad the front of their shop tarn out for the purpose of having a new one put in, and after taking out the old one yesterday, upright poles were *reds, supporters till the new one was ready to be fitted. On Mr. Taylor, jun., the son of the builder, going with a man wind Newton to prepare the work for others, the uprights were observed to totter. An alarm was imme diately given, but before many minutes had elapsed the house, se well so that of Mr. Hunter, fall. Fortunately the whole of the inmates of the latter escaped with out injury. The first person dug out was Mr. Taylor, who was so severely injured that he cannot possibly survive. He wee conveyed to the University College Hospital. Ths second was sue of Messrs. Maples' shopmen, named Bing, who then breathed, but on reaching the hospital, whither he was conveyed, had coaxed to exist, evidently from suffocation. A female servant and another shopman are still missing. Since writing the foregoing, at 12 o'clock, the body of the fronsle (cool) has been taken out dead. It is understood that arrangements are about to be made by the Eastern Counties Company to work the traffic of the East Suffolk Railway ; and that, in consequence, the Colchester, l'itses, end Radon line will be rendered Lumens sary. It is expected, therefore, that neither that line nor the Bhenfeld and Pities, promoted ly the Eastern Counties Company, will be proceeded with. OUTWARD AUSTRALIAN MOIL.—The European and Australian Company's steamer Jura, Captain Moody, arrived at Southampton yesterday, to be in MatialCU to con vey to Alexandria the Australian overland nn' of the 12th beat.
