IN the course of his admirable and powerful ad dress delivered to thelltimismary Meeting at Chester, Mr. GLA tx• rosig spoke of "we system of absolute " oreresy" as one cause of "dr impenetrable screen "between the ordinary awl babitaal and daily " routine of governmental Alike in England mad the of Indian affairs." Here Mr. OLADITOXE hit the great blot and defect not merely of Indian Administratioo, but of our system of coo rhietiog all external affairs. With a very anxious desire on the part of the public to become perfectly acquainted with both—with a sincere wish to form sound and correct opinions on all questions of Indian administration and Foreign policy—with a craving for knowledge on these subjects that is often sup plied with wrong, where it cannot get right, in telligence—with the press furnishing at immense expense correspondence from all parts of the world— the English people arc deliberately and pertina ciously kept in ignorance of what their Government intends and of what the Government of India is doing in matters which affect both the honour and conscience of the nation, which influence their reputation and their interests. And when they become anxious to know what is going cos, what their Government is saying and doing, the. they are told that this " absolute secrecy" is all tor their good. When they ere suddenly surprised by the explosion of • question on which they are not informed, then the governing clams coolly and con temptuourly remark, " What • pity it le that " Engiirhimen take no interest in foreign affairs r This " system of elvoleite secrecy," as Mr. GLAD irroxe—who has large ministerial experience, and who has sat in Cabinets who have practised it just as freely as other administrations—expressively de scribes it, is a discredit and an injury to the coun try ; it converts the Foreign (Mice and the Buard of Control into great mysteries; it enables Ministers to escape from parliamentary control and responsibility, and to exerciee authority and power in the name and on behalf of the nation which the country would not tolerate if better informed; it confines the diplce matic service to • class and a caste which have no popular sympathies; and it is constantly bringing odium and reproach oo personages who, after all, may not really deserve them. There are some very strains instances of this last remelt. When popular instincts become offended by the line of policy pursued by Government towards any of the Continental Btatee—as, for instance, in the obvious inclinations which have been exhibited towards an Austrian connexion, what so common now-a-days se to hear the exclamation, " The " Court is at work again—the Prince is mid .. dling r Now, either this popular belief of the omnipresent influence of the Count in continental affairs in well or ill founded. If it be well founded, if we are indebted to irresponsible and unlawful influences in the highest circles for the direction given to our foreign policy, then we are to a large extent deprived of our constitutional securities for good government, and in foreign affairs the Court is governing as well u reigning. We do not say that this is so—we hope and believe that it is not. But if the impression be ill-founded, if the reputation and the osefulnese, in other and legitimate epheres, of the PILINCE CODDOILT be lowered and lessened by unjust reproaches, if alienation between the public and Court be thus causelesaly fostered, what is to blame for it but " our system of absolute secresy ?" The public wish to cultivate only the kindliest and most affectionate relations with the Court; and as regards ►ll other points, nothing can be better then the relations which exist between the People and the Palace. But on this point of the supposed Con tinental 'Annie" of the Court, the cane is different, and the only mode by which it is now possible either to restore the former confidence, or to remove the causes which bare produced alienation, is the com plete abandonment of thin "system of absolute " secrecy" in the foreign policy of the country. It may be—and one suspicion on such a subject is just ea rational as 'anthers when there is no reliable evidence either way—that Ministers themselves are not indisposed to cultivate the popular impres- Ina of Princely interference. In Parliament they have, of course, no alternative but to profess them selves responsible. Buret of Parliament, in society and M the clubs, it is exceedingly tonvimient to en courage the belief that Ministerial liberality of policy is fettered and outvoted by powerful personal pre judices and inclinations. And it is impossible not to observe that every now and then, when public °piano becomes exasperated by seeing the power of England used for purposes and objects for which Englishmen have no earthly sympathy, and from which they utterly dissent, Ministers manage to escape from an odium, which falls on personages who, by the same exalted position that sets them above responsibility, are deprived of the ordinary means of elf-defuse. then, it is impossible under the present system to ascertain aathoritatively whether these imputations be teas or fake, in annual as they tend to mitigate the responsibility of Ministers, and to prevent Parliament deem sour ing that control which is its especial function, the public ought to be very wary of indulging i• them. At all events—we repeat it—the true remedy is to be found in publicity. There is another illustration of the mischievous. nen of this " system of absolute sures, " in the present position of Lord Jose Rreen.L. Mat parities, whirl% we arm with Mr. Bateau. OSBORN. is a public misfortune, is immediately attributable to the impressions the public entertain of Lord lons's Conduct at and after the Conferesess of Vienna. Some papers, professing to give an account the negotiations at that capital, have Jima laid Wpm Parliament. But at Sheffield, the other day, Lord Ione; RtmAtm. plainly said that the whole tenth had not been made public. And so much lie Lord JOHN under the influence of that seersny of which he is the victim. that while professing to have no fear of what the public judgment would be on his conduct when that conduct was fully and completely known, he added that the time for publicity had not yet come. The consequence is, that possibly for the remainder of his public life, because of this =oestrous system of concealing, and in this nee it would appear of perverting, the truth, England may be deprived of the =reins, the experience, and the capacity for legislation of one of the ablest statesmen she possesses, and that the blame which Lord lons bears with such unmur muring resignation may be justly due to Lord Ccaaexims, who has won all the laurels. We do not, again, my that this is so, because no man out of the secret circle can pretend to say what is and what is not, in the ass ; but we do say that this is • monstrous example of the injury which "our system " of absolute eecresy " can work out. And what Lord lons Ermet.t. intimates is his fate, viz., to suffer under unjust imputations because of sserrsy, has been the fate of other public men, and may at last be even Lord P.ttaee•eroa's or Lord CLARENDON'S. Tors addressee delivered at Birmingham, by the Presidents of Departments, bare been worthy of the repetition of the topmasts and the importance of the ease. The friends of Law Reform have no ream to regret that the Presidency of the Law and Jerkpirmienee Section was assigned to Lord JOHN RVIIIELL. Bringing to the illustration of the sub jest the 111101a0118 if a cultivated and statesmanlike mind, his Lordship dealt with the problems it pre mated is a broad and comprehensive spirit of prac tical phiknophy, which left nothing to be desired. He dwelt with especial emphasis on the necessity et creating a Department of Public Justice, to be presided over by • Minister who should be a member of the House of Commons. It is really impossible to over-estimate the importance, or to exaggerate the necessity, of such a functionary as thin As matters stand, the amendment and super vision of the Law are virtually left to a sort of chance-medley, and the natural result is a mam of coefusion and perplexity which is highly discredit able to a civilised country, and eminently pre judicial to some of the moat important interests of the community. The thing wanted is a presiding mind, an organising power, a respon aisle Minister, and till this first object is attained we most forego ►ll hope of that methodical and systematic reform in the Law and Jurisprudence of this country, the urgent need of which is yearly becoming more apparent to an increasing number of reflective minds. The illustrations selected by Lard JOHN RCASELL soeclusively proved how thoroughly the Statesman was at home in the peculiar province of the Law Reformer. The recommendation to confer on the County Courts a limited jurisdiction in Equity, instead of confining them, am at peewit, to a limited jurisdiction in Common Law, evinced a clear insight into one of the most pressing wants of the poorer clue of litigants. In the prevent absence of such a jurisdiction there is the same absolute denial of justice throughout the country in small Equitable claims us there was, before the establishment of the County Courts, in small Legal claims, and in both cases from the mine cause—the preposterous costliness of the tribunal in which alone the claim can be enforced. We am exceedingly glad to see that Lord JOHN Ress•r. has taken up in earnest the question of improving and extend ing the local administration of justice. We can't stop where we are. People like cheap law and local courts. They have got both up to a certain amount, and in respect to certain daises of claims. They will never, they ought never, to be content till they get this round and valuable principle carried infinitely Sather. Why should justice be local and cheap, and monthly, up to 50/.—itinerant, and costly and biennial, beyond that amount? Why, again, should that unnatural divorce between Law sad Equity, unknown in other systems of jurisprudent*, still exist in oars? Why should Common Law suitors be drives into Chancery, and Chancery suitors into Common Law? Such are some of the questions which Lord loam Itesscu. has started, as President of the Law and Jurisprudence Section. There are few problems to whose solution the labours of those he addressed can more profitably be directed. As to that work of which we have been talking ever since the time of BACON, and in which we have done next to nothing down to these present days of CIUNWOITiI —the Consolidation of our Statutes and the Codification of oar Law, we will only remark that Lord Jonv RISIWELCA views on the subject are sound and states manlike. He utterly repudiates the notion of merely rearranging the Statute-book, and re-enacting its provisions without change of style or amendment of natter. Ili. view is, that in consolidating we meet ansail--a view in which we need hardly say we nod entirely concur. As head of the Education Department, Sir Sow; PAKINGTON had to traverse ground more exclu sively his own. In his advocacy of an extension of the half-time system to the rural as well u to the tnanufseturieg districts; in his designation of the present method of Government grants and central supervision without the assistance of compulsory local aid, as a half system from which no results an be expected at all commensurate with the magnitude of the national need ; in his strong ex hortations to the Government and the Legislature to trample down all obstacles and scorn all difficulties in their determination to rescue our population from the reproach and demoralisation of ignorance, Sir JOHN must have been of course ►ware that he could not reckon upon carrying all his hearers along with him. It is among our national misfortunes that this question of National Education has not yet passed out of the domain of Poli tics and Theology into the calmer region of Social Science. In urgently representing the necessity of raising the quality and improving the standard of Education, Sr JOHN was upon less debateable ground: little objection would probably be entertained in any quarter to his proposal that Parliament should grant a further inquiry into the present state of the question, though we hardly think it likely that he will succeed in persuading Government to introduce a permissive measure for the purpose of trying his improved school system. All these, however, are points on which the free dim ensions of reflective and enlightened men are emi nently calculated to throw considerable light. In an Assoaation for the Promotion of Social Science philosophy ought to triumph over polemics, even when the subject under discussion is the Education of the English People. Happily, men sre more agreed about the mode of preventing Disease than removing Ignoranc e , and Lord STASLEY, In hia very thoughtful and masterly addram on the subject of the Public Health, wee able to urge the adoption of remedial meuuras in which all concur, for the attainment of an end in which all are interested. THE EXPRESS, THURSDAY EV.f The section of Punishment and Reformation was appropilately presided over by Mr. M. D. HILL. No pliilaathropist of the pliant day has in this department done the state better service then the energetic and indefatigable Recorder of Birming ham, *or could any more interesting subject have been selected for his address than the success of that system of Intermediate Imprisonment which, as now conducted in Ireland, is going so far to solve the passibility of introducing a really efficient system of Reformatory discipline, and bridging over for the con vict a practicable path from the prison to the world. Mr. HILL thus sumsup the results of the system he dis cusses :—" First, the health of the prisoners is " greatly improved and their mortality diminished " (varying from 8 to 2 per cent. per annum). " Secondly, the quantity of work performed by the " prisoners is increased to about threefold. Thirdly, " the moral character of the prisoners has much im " proved ; the number of punishments has much " diminished. Fourthly, the demand by employers " for the services of discharged prisoners now ex " needs the supply." It would be no slight proof of the utility of the Association now assembled at Birmingham that it tended to throw additional light on the long vexed questions of Punitive and Reformatory treatment. When we see that the treatment of these questions forma only an episode in the great work to which the Association has devoted itself, we can pay it no better compliment than by declaring our conviction that the utility of its labours will be found commen surate to the importance of its aims.

The fever is unfortunately still devastating the business pert of the city, and trade is almost para lyeed—eo mach so that the receipts of the Custom house, which are usually 2,0001. or more, are now only some 2001. per diem. All Lisbon is flying into the suburbs and into the country ; the principal warehouses are closed, and the opera-house and the theatres are almost deserted. Many of the English community have fallen victims to the fever, which appears to be of a most virulent kind, and to set all medical skill at defiance. Prayers are publicly said every afternoon in the principal parish churches ; but unfortunately I cannot yet record the decline of the malady. Many of the cases are attended with black vomit, and the disease is designated by the faculty as very difficult of treatment. The sanitary authorities are now directing all their energies to cleaning the sewers and other deposits of the city. The Custom-house is being cleaned out, and all kinds of filth is being brought to the light of day and removed. I believe that in the ware house No. 1, the window, which by direction of the Marquis of Pombal were made open to the ground, were blocked up in 1832, and the store has since remained in darkness and abomination. Some old casks of rotten pork and bacon had leaked during the coarse of years upon the floor, and I be lieve buckets had to be put into requisition to cleanse the place. Now, however, whilst Lisbon is in such a fearful state, the health authorities still persist in maintain ' ing their quarantine absurdities in all their pleni tude. As an instance how the sanitary re gulations are conducted at this calamitous time, I will mention that of the English vessel, New liar riet, whose muter having died on shore of yellow fever contracted in Lisbon, the vessel was actually sent down to the quarantine ground, and having remained there a week, and not being able to obtain prative, although the crew were, and had all along been, in perfect health, she sailed under quarantine. The most ridiculous part, however, is, that the work men and the pilot who went on board from the city were ordered to the Lazaretto by the health board, there to be daily purified, and afterwards to return to the city, where the epidemic is now raging . The force of folly can no farther go. A letter from Marseilles says that on Saturday morning last two highwaymen, aimed with guns, at= the diligence which rues between Brien°lles end Aix. were several ladies In the coach sad two studente, and on the boo beside the driver a postmen wee mated. The latter, ter rifled by the threats of the robbers, handed over 40fr. which he hod about him. During this operation the other robber kept hie gun prevented at the travellers inside of the coach, who delivered up their purees, containing in all about 400 h., with which the highwaymen withdrew, threatening the ma wagers that if they made any noise they would retain end shoot them. The gendarmerie are in pursuit.

THE CAPE OF GOOD HOPE. We have received a batch of Cape journals, the latest date being Ang. 15. The Cape Town Mail of that date says : The statement of the revenue of the colony for the year ending 30th June, 1867, thews a net increase over the re venue for the same period, ending 30th June, 1866, of 91,3191. Nearly the whole of thin le due to the Customs, on which there ha. been en incramo of 90,2621. The total re ceipts for the year ending 30th June, 1867, were 376,9901. The total expenditure for the lame period, 320,3201., leaving a balance in favour of receipts of 65.6701. In 1837 the revenue was 167,0 3 7/. In 1847 it was 222,0131. In the year ending 30th June, 1867, It was 376,9901. As the revenue is derived chiefly from customs, treader, end auction dues, it affords a pretty lair view of the progress of the colony, in population, wealth and mode of living. The value of the colony bee thus been doubled in the hat twenty years. But in the last ten yowl the progress has been more rapid, and if the powers now at work are vigorously applied, and well directed, the humans in the neat ten years will be much greater. The imagine in the last twenty years has been generally unibed to the in troduction of fine-woolled shoep. That process is still going on and extending. But the addition of immigration, paw lines of road, and railroads, w3l ef•ct a change, not lees ex tensive, in the to al value of the We take the following also from the same journal: ifeetaday (Aug. IS), the Cape Royal Rifles and the Wye. berg Cavalry were reviewed by his Exmilency the Governor on the Grand Parade. This first muster of the Rifles after a long interval was very numerously attended, and the ere httione were performed in a creditable manner, although not with their usual precision. The first appearance of the Wyaberg Cavalry was also good, and they will form a oapi. tal addition to the Voluntlet Army of South Africa. After the review his Excellency addrael the roam end especially the Cape Royal Rifles. He expressed hie satisfaction at their appearance, laying the,t he had often heard of them. but MY surprised to find them inch a nay ettoctive force, The conduct of the Cape Town Rifles ca the exicseion of the receipt of news from India was a matter of pride to him as Governor of the colony, and an honour to themselves. They bad the eatiefaction of knowing that they were the first to set the example, that the offer came from themselves, at the suggestion of no one, and that by their conduct they had enabled him to forward immediate assistance to the seat of the disturbances. They had no ides what effect the intelligence of their spirited con duct would cause in England, when it was knees there that at this emergency, when everyone was in doubt and trouble, without a moment's halation, the gentlemen d Cape Town npontencoualy offeral their men ices, at great ex pease and trouble to themselveN to do all the duty required. so that every available soldier might be sent off without a moment's delay. He was sure that this intelligence would be received with greet pleasure, not only by her Majesty the Queen, but by the whole people. He congratulated Cape Town In being the fled communqy which had come for ward in this manner to the assistance of the Crown, end he was more that they would ever have cause to be proud of it. The corps then marched back to the town.hell, where the result of the ballot far the vacant lieutenancy was announced, Sergeant Henry loses having been elected." Her Majesty's steamer Penelope and troopship Belleisle left Simon's Bay for India on Wednesday, the 12th. The Ocean Wave, It ith a portion of the 89th, was to leave on the 15th for India. On the 13th the ship Polonaise arrived, from Dublin June 18, with a detachment of her Majesty's 95th Regi ment on board, consisting of 17 officers, and 316 rank and file, under the command of Major Reines. The 95th was to have relieved (the 89th in Cape Town, but, wider present circumstances, the regi ment proceeds to India. FOUNDERThO Old LONDON dND BREMEN STEAMER. The foundering of the Butjad4i, London and Bremen steamer, In the North Sea, d the late heavy weather, wee announced yesterday at 's. Manny the whole of her pameugen and crew were saved.

E. A tremendous sea struck her stern, carrying away her rudder and aternpoet, and causing her to leak considerably. Every effort was made to reduce the leak and repair the injury, but the gale oontinuing, all their exertions proved frualeee. Throughout the whole of the night and following day Captain Wiericks, the corn. mender, and hie crew kept to their post, in the hope of saving the ship. The water, however, kept increasing, and their position at length became wet critical. A mil had not come I in eight, and, with the heavy eta that was running, there ' was not much probability of the boata living long in it If they were lowered. On Friday evening the water had gained so mach upon her that It was up to the rattle between decks. At length the signals which they kept sending up were ob served by • Norwegian schooner, who bore up for the sink ing steamer. The crew were then hailed to come off. tin fortunately one of her boats got swamped and another stove, so that there was only one available to take three on board to the schooner. The nine passages—amongst them were two women and two children—were first got off ; and after several parrs of the host the whole of the crew were conveyed to the schooner. The Butjadingen mast have foundered shortly afterwards. She wee s powerful three. meted iron screw steamer, and was built at &bride three ran since.

The place wee full of their children who ware deems upside down on the public buildings (two small bridges over the brook), end always hurting themselves or one another, so that their wailing, nude more continual noise in the air than could have been got in a busy place.
