And yet, Lathe conventional decorum of Parliament allowed, It sight have been made much shorter. All that is essential in the Speech is contained in the second elauseet the first 'sentence :—" Her MAJESTY tenets that there will be found sufficient time during the present Session to enable you satisfactorily to deal with various important matters, sonic of which had occupied the attention of Parliament in the begin ning of this year." Such an unwonted expression of confidence, that, in a Session which commences when most Sessions have got half-way through.l their business, there will be time enough to deal satiefactorily with certain important questions, mesas clearly that there will not be time. And to make this broad hint the more intelligible, mit/ is taken to slur over every subject that could give ries to debate. Parliament is Wormed that there is good reason to look for a contiansace of peace in Europe; that the main stipulations of the Treaty of Paris have been carried into execution, and the rest will be speedily acoomptiabed ; that the negotiations regarding the Needsisatel affair are drawing to a close; that • Treaty for the redemption of the Sound Dues has been concluded with Denmark ; and that peace has been concluded with Persia. All these sae mere items of rather stale news—para graphs clipped from old newspapers—matters of a most Neenniferous tendency, capital anodynes for overactive members, if any such there be in the new Parliament. Two items of living interest are skilfully presented in points of view as unex citing as possible. After beating the devil's tattoo ups China throughout the elections, Ministers in the Royal Speech merely allude to the despatch of • Plenipotentiary to that country to "adjust dif ferences "—the naval and military force that is to "support" him being judiciously kept in the back ground. Of the negotiations regarding Central America, Parliament is simply told that they "have not yet been brought to • close." The only topics touched upon that point to action, are the Estimates, and projected Bills relating to Testamentary and Matrimonial Jurisdiction as exercised by the Ecclesiastical Courts, and for declaring fraudulent Leaches of tenet penal. It would be the height of injustice to call this Speech unmeaning. From the beginning to the end of it every sentence is full of meaning, and that meaning ono and the same. Every sentence is • counsel or an incitement to repose. The whole tenor of the Speech is as tranquillising and soporific es the sound of the rain-drops oa the roof in Brsareaa'• are of iforsehens. Every word is an exhortation, es powerful as the exhortations of Plearis en " the Idle lake" of the same poet, to abstain from undue exertion. The Speech ssys, as plain as speech can say—" My Lords and Gentle :am—Take it easy ; and get through your so-work before the end of July." In short, Lord PALMERATOn, having gone to the country " without a policy," now asks for a year to devise one. THE first sitting of tho new House of Commons for the despatch of business has been of brief dors tion, but of considemble importance : Amid 'concourse of members unusually large, and in a House where the absence of old, and the presence of new, faces made itself immediately and almost startlingly felt, the Secretary of the Treasury rose to announce the Government programme. The Bill of last session on Secondary Punishments is to be re-introduced to day by Sir CLORGE °HET-Abet CHANCELLOR of the Hiatus 4n is to move for afteketCommittee =the Bank Act on Monday—on the 14th Lord PALMER STON is to ask leave to bring in a bill to amend the oatlia taken by members in both Houses of Parlia ment—in other words, for the repeal of Jewish _ _ dimbilitise—on the nth, the ATTOKNIT-OKKEILAL I. to introduce a measure for rendering fraudu lent IDSICIsIS of trust criminally punishable. Amen the maims of motion that followed was one by Mr. ROEBUCK, fora resolution affirming that the representation of the people was not in a satisfac tory condition, sod another front Mr. H. Butrattr on vote by ballot The new Speaker having then read the QtErm's Speech, with a voice by no means deficient in clear ness, though net remarkable for force, the business of mowing and seconding the Address followed in due coarse. Mr. J. 0. DODSON, the mover, went through his routine task in th►t approved style of parlia mentary seesaw, which lolls the ear without inform ing the sense, clothes the tritest commonplaces in the armies( diction, and only escapes the re proach of tedium by judicionaly shunning the Mime of prolixity. Mr. RUCKANAN, the new member for Glasgow, followed in a somewhat Mfilment strain. With a rugged breadth of Doric, sad a \measly avoidance of rounded periods, which pretend at first a favourable impression on his audience, the honourable seconder soon began to forget that hie function was to echo, not to originate. He WY betrayed into the indiscretion of letting Wes the waters of strife, by the utterance of some vary pronounced opinions as to the origin of the Chinese war. The House was evidently in no temper for going again into the torchn and bom bardment business, and when the honourable seconder. warming with his subject, drew the fatal Arms° to the head, a shudder of irrepressible impatience thrilled through the ranks of the august assembly. But the nerres of the orator were strung to a high pitch of tension; his feat of archery had been possibly some time in rehearsal ; nor did the rigidity of the Caledonian muscle permit of any re laxation from his Pythian attitude until be had duly discharged himself of the inevitable shaft. A slight waving of the British tag, and a step or two, not too dexterously executed, from that late popular entertainment, the ministerial war dance over tho " ineolott barbarian," hated the THE EXPRESS, FRIDAY EVENING, MAY 8, 1857. natural accompaniment of this playful escapade. The manner in which the How received these remark may probably be taken as en intimation that there will be no disposition to recur in the new Par liament to any further discussions as to the merits sr demerits of the Chinese war in its origin. The HOWies like the nation at large, has probably an instinctive feeling that, however indefensible in its outset this war may have been, the practical problem now bct,re us is how to get out of it with as little blotr.ished, as little cost, and as little lose of prc.tige as possible. The necessities of empire are upon us. The morality of Dr. BOWIING . II war was a question decided in the last Parliament—the right settle ment of our international relations with China, is one of the most important questions for the pre sent Parliament. The , indiscreet seal of Mr. RI:MA:4AX led to a fiery protest from the veteran Oencral THOMPSON, suds net only denounced in indignant terma ibis media of being supposed to acquiesce in the semliments delivered by the seconder of the Miss" but declared his intention of bringing 6,- 06a question once more beam the general Wm* et 6e eountry.

The Greek chambers have voted the budget, and adopted the principle of an augmentation in the ex port duties. de Mars would not hold them all, and several corps took up their stations in the environs and on and about the bridges. A very large proportion of this army con slated of seasoned troops, who have seen several years' service. Among themwere the Ist,3rd,4tb, and 7th Foot Chassewe, and the 7th, 10th, 11th, 17th, 20th, 33rd, 99th, 46th, 47th, 50th, 56th, 68th, 79th, 95th, 96th, and 97th of the line, all of which regi ments were among the first to embark for the Crimea in 1854. Several regiments appeared for the first time in new uniforms. Tho infantry of the guard wore the garanee trousers. Among the cavalry the amateurs d Clara: de la Garde, who are removed from Compeinge to Fontainebleau , excited great ad miration. This magnificent regiment is mounted urn light grey Barbary entire horses, brought from Africa. Although many of the troops are but just o ff long ntarehes, they all appeared as clean and smart as if they had bat just turned out of barracks for a regi mental parade. The Emperor left the Tuileries at half-past one, having the Grand Duke on his right hand and Prince Napoleon on his left. An immense staff followed, comprising Marshals Vaillant, Pelis slier, Smarmy d'llilliers, Bouquet, Canrobcrt, several French generals, and very many Russian and other foreign officers ; among whom was the famous General Totleben, and Generals Luders, Gort chakoff, Liprandi, and Dannenberg. I observed five English uniforms in the mite. Tho Em peror's arrival on the Champ de Mars from the Pont do Jena, was greeted with the usual acclamations. The army was too numerous for any very minute inspection, and too closely packed for any mancenvres. His Majesty, followed by the Grand Duke at the distance of halt a neck behind him, passed along the leading lines of infantry, cavalry, and artillery, and then the filing past began without loss of time. This movement was executed by the troops in large masses and with extraordinary ra pidity, under the command of Marshal Magnan. Each regiment, after filing past, marched off the ground to its quarters without waiting for the Em peror. The review was over by 3 o'clock. The Empress and the Imperial Prince were on the balcony of the Ecole Militaire during the spectacle. UNITED STATES. ARRIVAL OF THE CANADIAN. 111T11111 AND KAOIITIC TZLISOZAPN.)

This morning the Archbishop, bishops, and proc tors of the province of Canterbury, assembled in convocation at Wistrainster. THE UPPER HOUSE. The Upper House met in Queen Anne's Bounty-ofilee, Dcan's-yard. There were present the Archbishop of Can terbury (president), the Biehope of OKLA, Winchester, St. David's, Salisbury, Lincoln, Lichfield, St. Asaph, Chichester, and Leadoff. The Aacnatenor of CENTRUM:AT read the add reas to the Queen, which it is customary for their lordships to present at the assembling of convocation, and in reply to the royal speech on the opening of the session of parliament. While the address was under consideration a deputation from the Lower House came up, headed by the prolocutor. The Archbishop of CANTERBURY addressing them said—. We are considering an address to her Majesty, which Is the chief busineee of the present meeting, and we hope to be able to send it down in a short time. In the mien while we wish you to direct your attention to a renewal of the ogres mittee appointed last session for eensideing the beet mode of extending the ntiesionary work of the church. The deputation than withdrew. In the course of the discussion on the address, a brief de. bate arose upon a portion of it which relates to the powers of convocation and its authority sa conferred by the crown. . . The Brauer Of Ox PAID obeerved that en moo bad gone abroad, to the effect that convocations were anxious to take surreptitious advantage of the forbearance of the government to consult upon subjects for which they were not called together by the Crown. That was aneatire mists because the convocation of the province of Canterbury met under the authority of a writ of summons from the Church to consider divers weighty matters connected with the church which greatly needed considerations They could deliberate upon every subject which convoaffion might doom fit to enter upon, and beyond the writ of sum mons no legal document could be sent down from the crown which could increase its powers, except in so far es it might =late to a license to make canons Convocation, at this women, might be useful to the Ferns by giving en opportunity to the clergy of the Lower Houma to deliberate upon any alteration in church law which might be rendered needful by the change of society. Convocation exercised no direct legis lative function, but its deliberations were of advantage, sa enabling parliament to learn the opinions of the apiritud portion of the church upon those matters which required ansraarm. The Bishop of Sr. DATIO , concurred in what had Wen from his right rev. brother, whose speech was a complete reply to two objections urged against convocation, viz . the one referred to directly by his right reverend brother, and the other that the meeting of convocation was a mockery and a farce. The Bishop of Sr. Mar& was rejoiced to hear these genii• meets cap:toted. Convocation might be made very rueful for advancing the interest of the church, not sea legislative, but aa a consultative body. (Beer, hear.) The Archbishop of CANTERBURY said, according to the words used in the writ of commons, they were called togellin to treat of and deliberate upon urgent matters and af fairs connected with the security and defence of the church. They were called together in • most solemn manner to discuss the interests of the church, and if he were to accede to the wishes of certain requisb tionista, and discharge convocation, saying at the same time that there was nothing for them to do, he should be acting, to say the least, in a most invidious manner. It would indeed, if be were to do that, be acting at variance with what be considered to be his duty to ha Majesty.

The Prince Napoleon left Paris at nine o'clock this morning for Berlin. The Petrie, which origi nally was instructed to contradict the news of his approaching departure for that capital, now says that he has gone in consequence of " a new desion." This is probable, for it is certain that two days ago official personages acquainted with what is going on in the foreign office strenuously denied the tea* of the report from Berlin. The Courrier de Paris says that the Prince is estimated with a slim ban the Emperor to the King of Prussia. A paper, however, pretends that the object of his is simply to fulfil a duty of etiquette. He is to go soon to St. Petersburg to return the Grand Duke Constantine's visit, and the explanation offered is, that on this account it wss proper that he should first return the visit lately paid to France by Prince Frederick William of Prussia. His imperial highness is accompanied by General Count de Sallee, senator, formerly commander-in chief of a corps d'armt-e in the Crimea, Lieutenant. Colonel Bertrand, of the artillery, an aide-de-camp of Prince Jerome, Commander Ferri-Pesani, his sib. de-aunp, and Captain de Weidner, one of his orderly officer► Ile will proceed by way of Cologne and Her debourg, at which latter place he will be received by I Lieutenant-General de Brandt and General Trescow, l in the name of the King of Priori'. The prince will not be absent more than ten days, and immediately after his return he will go to Manchester to see the Art Treasures Exhibition. Last night the city of Paris gave a splendid file to the Grand Duke Constantine, at the Hotel de Ville. The exterior was illuminated with brilliant lines of gas, which showed off to advantage eat beautiful architecture of the building, and shed glare of light all over the Ile de la Cite. Within s the ante-chambers and corridors were profusely as mated with flowers. The company passed throe& i the state drawing rooms to the principal ball room,l which was fitted up as • theatre with great skill and taste. A temporary flooring formed a gentle inclined plane, and permitted the seats to be so arranged that all the visitors could see perfectly. The invitations were necessarily limited, it bsisg impossible to accommodate comfortably more the about 1,000 persons in the grand salon alone, large as it is. Almost all the men appeared in uni- I hem. There were a grist many ladies, and it was an awning sight to see fat senators, old generals, Gni dignified prefects turned out of the front seats as new batches of fair visitors arrived. By the time das curtain rose, the gentlemen had been gradually . driven back to the first row of pillars, and the entire space between that and the reserved seats for the Grand Duke's party was occupied by ladies, whose coiffures of many-coloured feathers and flowers showed like • goodly parterre. The Grand Duke and a small court party arrived at 10 o'clock. lie entered by a private door, and it was only by the orchestra striking up that the company was made aware of his presence. The performances consisted of a beau tiful scene from nominee Mau is BOW, fragments from the Psyche of Ambroisc Thomas, Verdi's Ermine; Verdi's Romeo mid Juliet, Gluck's Armito, and a ballet. These pieces were performed by the regular company of the French Opera with appro priate dresses and scenery. The entertainment went off well, but without any great enthusiasm. There was rather too much talking for music to be enjoyed thoroughly. After the concert the pre fect entertained the Grand Duke at a reeherchl supper. There was also a capital supper for the general visitors, with abundance of excellent champagne. The Grand Duke did not walk through the rooms, and indeed was not seen by the public at all. The Emperor was not present. The Grand Duke breakfasted with the Emperor this morning, at his villa of Villeneuve L'Etang, and afterwards visited the Sevres China manufactory. At the Bourse the animation which was remarked y es terday, gave place to a feeling of depression, occasioned principally by the fall in Consols. The Itente fell 23e. for cash, and 30e. for account, clos ing at Mfr. 23c., and 69fr. 30c. Mobilier fell 13fr. The railways lost the ground that they gained yes terday, closing at nearly the prices of the day be fore. There was a vague report that the new pie pool relative to the Bank of France was rejected, but the news was vehemently contradicted, and met with but little credence. PARIS, WEIINENDAT EVENING. The weather has been magnitleent for the grand review. The Parisians, who always love a military s p ec tacle, were stirring betimes. Many went to take up a position in the environs of the Champ de Mars as early as seven in the morning, and waited patiently for hours before a single soldier made his appearance on the ground. Dazing the whole morning a constant stream of people might be seen in every street marching with hurried steps towards the scene of action. By one o'clock Paris was visibly depopulated. All the world had gone to the Champ de Mars. Immense pains were taken to render this review worthy of the Orand Duke's attention. The entire Imperial Guard was for the first time assembled together. Besides the garrison of Paris, regiments were sent for hem Nancy, Com piegne, Mean:, Fontainebleaa, Melon, Chartres, Chateaudun, Provins, Orleans, &o. There mast have been et least Ilitythenessil men in line. The Champ TEE INLAND REVENUE. This morning was leaned the first report of the Commimioners of Intend Revenue.

In the stamp duties considerablenductions have been made Ones 1849. The general effect nems to have been great relief to the public, attended with but littleloes, and in some instance. with absolute benefit, to the revenue. The income tax, being the most important of all the duties, receives an extended notice. The oeumsnotters give • sketch its history from its first imposition, by Mr. Pitt, in 1798, and point out briefly the attendee. in prin ciple and the various modification. since intro duced.

The law thus declared in that ease being so mani. fk a r uipo, end, he might say, absurd, the legislature, by the ogneninith Vic. c 10S, had repealed the 102nd sect. o f the ROM Caney Caiirt Act, on which Adney v.

He Mated that the circumstances, in respect of which the rule bed obtained, had been referred to the master for inveetiga sion, and hie report wee now in the heads of the court.

Mr. Cockburn , the _defendant, appeared in person to show comer and Complained that he was entirely ignorant of the qedicenj which was made against him. Mr. said it appeared that the defendant bad never applied for copies of the affidavits which had been fled by the seeessabw. Mr. Justice Wightman suggested that the defendant should bare time allowed him to see the affidavits.

Lord Campbell intimated that, with regard to one point of law which *roes in the aim, the court would gore liberty to appeal, but they thought, after the finding of the jury, it would be inconsistent with the due discharge of their duty to do so in reference to the other raised in the coarse of the arguments. rlrpOin em t was whether it was erroneous to hold that the de fendant'a machnte was an infringement of the plaintiff's patent by remora of the um de subordinate part only of the combina tion described in the specification, if the part so used wee new material as stated by their judgment, though the other parts were old.

THE LAND TAX CON BISSIONEMA OE GRILLE ANWELL, IN W JODCIMENT. This was a vide' mes, raising the question whether, finder the L•ad-Taa Act, the New River Company was liable to be assessed to the land-tax of the county of Rattail, to respect of so much of the New River as peseta through the parish of Great Amwell, and else in cusped, of a imall plot of ground in that parish, belonging to the company, and two wells, the produce of which the company hold at Great Amwell. The plUntirs' contention was that on the true construction of the 67th section of the Land Tax Act, the company was expressly made assessable in the London district alone for the whole of their property. As the wells, the argument was that they stood tr. land, in respect of which the land tax had been rediereWl, and wen not, therefore, liable on that account, to be included in the assessment whenever that ought to be made. For the defendants it was argued that the company might well liable both to lie assessed in London and the parishes through which the river passed , and that the legislature could never have meant to benefit London at the expense of Hertfordshire, the land of which woo taken to produce the profits, in respect of which the land tax was chargeable. As to the plot o' • ground which had been addled to the original property, was submitted that that was clearly asseasable to the loailit; hi which it was eituated if unredeemed. As to the wells, ' wu admitted that if they stood in land which had been deemed the company would be liable in respect of them. The Chief - Baron now delivered the judgment t the court. The question was whether the New River Company were liable for the land tax in Great Am well in Rerts. It appeared that sloes the year 1798 the company's land in Great Ainwell had been made eiseessable in London and the court was of opinion that nothing had been shown to them to justify them in altering that course, but as to land which the company might subeequentl have had they would be liable to pay.

The prisoner had been several times in Holloway ga01.. . consequence of convictions before the magistrates at the Man eion•house, and he appeared et the bar this day, with the NAM crying face wUth he has been long in the habit of exhibiting, and ho made the mine defence which be made upon every former occasion, viz., that he was starving, and that the offence was his very first. Two other new silk handkerchiefs were found concealed about his person. He maundered that it would be his meet prudent course to plaid guilty, and to rely upon the tender feeling of the court. The Aldermen sentenced him to be imprisoned for ail months with hard labour, upon hearing which he began to roar and bawl, but with dry eyes.
