SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. 4 SPECIAL EDITION of the “ EXPRESS," sestaining eta malts of the day's Races, is pub- lished me, evening daring the Sporting Season, at six o'clock. Tim business of the mooed eartnal Imam of the National Association for the Promotion of Social Science was concluded as Saturday. We cannot look beck on the past week without the strongest feelings of thankfulness and hope. To say that this serial has been successful would, we believe, im- perfectly express the convictions of those who are best qualified to judge of the fact. The vitality and resources developed by the Association at Liverpool have been each as few of its friends were prepared for. The meetings and sections have been crowded, not with passive audiences, but by people who had evidently come to take part in earnest work. The number of papers read, the wide range of the sub- jeets, and the knowledge and power with which they were treated, proved remarkably how intently the improvement of the condition of the people is now studied by minds of the beet order. No one can have followed the proceedings of the week without recognising an elevation of tone, an earnestness of purpose, and a singleness of aim, which distinguish the meetings from any similar gatherings hitherto known in this country. It may be, as a weekly contemporary reminds us, that social theory bee been comparatively neglected at Liverpool; but we • I I are not sure that many people will regret that. The public at large, which, by the aid of the press, has bees in a meaner present et the various meetings, has consented to read its half-dozen columns a day of talk about social reforms, because it knew that the men who were talking on the subject last week would be working for it dosing the other weeks of the year. Now that the session is broken up, the writers and readers of paper", dispersed over the land, will resume their accustomed work, opening does alleys to light and air, planting schools among ignorant popula- tions, reclaiming the erring and miserable, and striving to theme* the conveniences and raise the level of the mass of their fellow countrymen. But the work which the Association exists to advance is not coo- fined to its members. It will probably do most good by mating, nourishing, and stimulating a sound practical public opinion on social topics. Every patch of dirt, every malarious pool, may be said to steed for some error, some prejudice, which needs to be overcome ; and the missionaries of social reform, who, in vestries, board", committees, or elsewhere, contend against ignorance, apathy, and indifference, will derive both weapons and strength from the coun- sel and sympathy to be found in the Association. The outlay of pains and efforts upon the Liverpool meeting would havebeen amply rewarded if they had only called forth that remarkable address in which the Earl of SnArrassuav exhibited the principle", means, and limitations of philanthropic effort. We should be ready to place that luminous, comprehen- sive, sad fervent speech—every sentence of which is • text—in the hands of any intelligent foreigner desiring to understand oar institutions and public life, and bid him see in the confidence with which the noble speaker sets to work to effect a great and i difficult social reform by the unaided inflame, et opinion, an illustration of that power which makes ma the vigorous, progressive, and helpful nation that g a we are. Lord SHAFTRIBITIT desires to raise and secure the sanatory state of every household in the kingdom. But he says—lf we were looking to any central authority to direct • the efforts of the whole kingdom in this matter, we should be destroying the objects we had in view. Unless the people take it up as their own especial cam our labour will be in vain. Our object is to excite interest, to stimulate inquiry, and collect all the energy we can in separate localities, till the head of every family is convinced that our prima- pies are essential to domestic comfort and domestic purity, to has physical condition and his lama strength. We are associated to beget a general interest, to bring out dormant talent, and excite latent energy. "It is not by law, it is not by the " desultory attempts of a few benevolent people, that " these remits are to be attained. They are to be " attained only by the constant and vigorous exec- " cies of a wise, benevolent, and instructed public " opinion." These are thoroughly English senti- ments. Nor is this spreading of right principles a some- thing which may be taken up and laid down as if It were a pastime. Look at the lot of those err to yon, nye Lord SHLPTISeCnT. Ask your self how much of the squalor sad wretchedness whkh is at your door you might have removed. " You have the knowledge ; you have the means. " They have not the knowledge they have sot the " mesas ; and by everything holy, everything true, " yogi are your brother's keeper." Mighty words are these. The history of Christendom for centuries has been to a great extent the history of mistaken I I endeavoore to realise this truth. Men have felt in all ages that in some way or another they had to keep their weaker fellows. The most despicable .11 tyrannies. both spiritual and temporal, of the pre- sent day, are the degenerate and perverted remains of agencies which onginally grew out of a felt ne- cessity of falfilling that duty. Parents have been —ere at the present day—robbed of their children in the name of religion by people who owe all their power to the credulous belief that they are keeping from harm of acme kind those to whom I GM w►oa they extend their ministry. And not only is this so 1 in countries which we call dark, countries where the dungeon and rack are still reserved for those who rebel against spiritsel bondage, but amongst ourselves are thousands whose =donee!" keeping" their brother in the good and right way (=not be carried out without the aid of the law and the gaoler. Happily their numbers and strength aro fading away before that mighty power which Lord Sn*i'rrsnuay never Ratters—which he rather seeks to instruct, but to 1 which he never ceases to appeal, because he knows that it, and it only, is the lever by which society in England can be moved. His lordship shows us the highest Christian duty in full and working har mony with the truest human liberty. With him, to keep a brother is to respect and awaken his moral freedom, to quicken him with social sympathies, to shed around him a better light and a purer air, and, in the end, induct him, intelligent and free, into the great family which worships in spirit a common Father above. The noble, generous words he has spoken at Liverpool will live and bear }knit. which he had not previously said in the newspapers, to the infinite amuesesiat of the public. He now thinks all the world is wrong in believing that the cable is laid ; but he was equally certain three mouths ego that it mold not be, would not be, and ought not to be submerged upon any other system than his. No harm could have been done, certainly none to the Atlantic Telegraph Company, by allow ing him to pursue his course until his application broke down upon the legal point. Bat the worst thing that could have been done was to drag in, without need, the names of eminent capitalists, as if their credit could be at all concerned in obstructing the natural course of a legal inquiry. It was this which envenomed the case, and made it necessary for Alder man &Lomita to declare that which ought never to have been doubtful to the most ignorant person, that in an English court of justice there is one rule for a BARING or a mechanic. A little more patience, a slight sensibility to humour, would have spared the Guildhall bench an encounter which will not exalt its judicial reputation. PRUSSIA. PORTUGAL. Wito says that Lieutenant Illnoursoir, R.N., shall be put down ? Here we have all been these three months in town bewailing a hum-drum exist- ewe and accusing the mortal dulness of life, when, ' no sooner does a man of bold and startling ideas torn up to promise entertainment than Alderman BAtonotte wants to snuff him out. It must not be. Hioninaort is a very " man of the time." Lieutenant MOGINION has made only one mistake. He has carried his novelties to the wrong market. Guildhall has a reputation for missing the point of • joke. lAA Thursday and Friday this bluff old sailor went to its court prepared to maintain a thesis which was sure to draw crowds of listeners. No matter how, the Lieutenant has persuaded him self that the Atlantic Cable is as " unreal mockery." No connecting wire has ever been laid down, no communication seat under the SO L, Sir CHARLES BRIO= is another Flamm, sad the QUEENS mes sage to President BUCHANAN was sent over by steamer. All this he believes with the earnestness of enthn damn, and has written down in as affidavit, which he carries about in his pocket. If originality is a merit, this gallant and ingeniona officer ought to be eneoureged. Alderman tiatomons listened on Thursday to only a small part of Lieutenant HIGOINSON'S state ment, but it was sufficient to fill him with horror. " What are you, sir ?" he asks with astonishment at the first hint of a charge against the Atlantic Tele graph Company. " I am an officer in the Royal " Navy, and I have been defrauded by this Com " puny," is the prompt and audacious reply. "Re " fleet, sir," is the magisterial admonition ; " this " Company is composed of the greatest capitalists in " the world—Emma, Rontsatan, and Mon " smotv--and has been formed for a east under " taking, to connect England and America, and per " hope the whole world." " I have been swindled," rejoins the Lieutenant, his Telco rising above the noisy waves of official indignation which begin to roll in the court. What could the magis trate do ? Swindlers—Basuto, ROTHSCHILD, and Mostamott—Monarson, ROTHSCHILD, and Benito. Was it calumny P No. Libel ? No. It was bisephemy—confusion—anarehy. For an instant every principle of the aldermanio mind was staggered, every idea shocked. Chaos was come again. In that fearful moment if the sky had fallen Alderman SALOYONS would not have hem a bit surprised. But the principle of authority was to be re-enthroned by a very humble agent. The eye of the bewildered potentate rested on • policeman, and at that sight he remembered that be was an alder man. Straightway clothing himself with terrors, he fell upon the too rash IDOOINSON, who, unsup ported and solitary, was carried away in the whirl wind of official wrath. "If you persist, sir—" " I do persist; I will not be browbeaten." " Leave the court, sir; I will not have the bench treated with disrespect." "I am not disrespectful to the bench; the bench is disrespectful to itself." "If you will not go out, sir, I will have you taken oat." "I am going, sir." " Officer, lead that person out of court." " I came here for justice, and I will have it." " Lead him out, officer." " I am going." "Lead him out, officer; lead him out." " Lieutenant HIGOINSON then withdrew," concludes the report, " escorted to the door by the officer of the court." That night the City slept in pesos. Bat Hitiontson, routed and vanquished, was not disposed of. On Friday morning that well remem bered figure caught the troubled eye of the Alder man, and prompted an involuntary, " Oh, you are " here, air." Yes, he was there : the exorcised spirit had returned. Both sides observed a masterly CAS' tion. The first interchange of courtesies is por batons. Strange inversion—the Magistrate apo logises, and the applicant insists on upholding the dignity of the bench. Everybody sees that this cannot laat—that underneath all this polite ness the Alderman is firm and the Lieutenant inexorable. So, • little law, and they are at the old work again. " I cams here for justice," says the Lieutenant, " and I find my adversaries sitting "on the bench against me." " Will you cease and "sit on the bench ?" is the soothing response. "No, " Sir, I positively decline." More references to law books, more opinion, pointing plainly to • coning refusal of the summons. HIOGINSON sees that the crisis is imminent ; no time is to be lost, so he goes straight to the point "My object is to show that " there is no cable down between Valentin and New " fottndland, and that there never has been any tele " graphic communication between the two countries." Can be not as well write to the papers No, be will not—he will read his affidavit ; and then begins a scene which the reporter alone can describe :—" ' I, FRANCIS HIOOINSON, do hereby " make oath and say that I, se well as others of her MAJESTY'S subjects'—. Alderman SALOMONS : " The reporters are taking down all you say.— " Lieutenant HD:MINION (not noticing the internals " lion) • Having in divers ways been cheated—. " Cmar Cutax : This is very irregular. The infer " mation has been read.—Lisstanant HIGOINSON " (reading iu a louder tone amidst great confusion) : " Asd defrauded of large sums of money—. " Aldermen Rost : I really must support my brother " alderman. (Increased noise and confusion.) Officer, " keep order in the court —Officer : Gentlemen, " gentlemen, you must keep order.—Lientertant " Hugunson (who stopped for nothing): By means " of certain false and fraudulent pretences used by " sad ea behalf of the—. Alderman Batt:moms : I am surprised that you do not take the answer you " have received." The confusion thickens, strangers to the case inter fere, the Alderman appeals to GOD and my coon " try," and the inevitable "ROI, the offioer of the " osert," the Dees ez yearhied of the day before, is about to intervene a second time, when suddenly the scene dissolves, and the parties vanish. This, of course, is very riclicalons, and might easily have been avoided. If the application of Lieutenant HIOGINSON was to be discussed and examined seriously, Alderman SALOMONS, as a partner in the Company, was not the magistrate to do se. But it was not necessary to make a grave affair of it. The gallant officer it is well known has a crotchet about submarine cables. He said nothing at Guildhall THE EXPRESS, MONDAY EVENING, OCTOBER 18, 1858. LATEST INTELLIGENCE. BERLIN, Su ?MA Y. • The Gazette Nationale has been seized to-day for an article upon the elections. The article recom mended the adoption of the programme of the Con stitutional Committee of Breelau—ezplaining why that programme should be taken as the base of their political action by aU the fractions of the liberal Party. The Feuille Popestaire has been seized for an his toric .1 article—the sixth of a series—upon democracy in Prussia. The anniversary of the king's birthday was cele brated at Berlin on Friday with much solemnity. All the princes at Berlin, the principal functionaries, and the diplomatic corps were present at a special service at the cathedral. LISBON, Ocr. 16. The Austerlitz and the Donanwerth Continue is the Tagus. The English man of war Victory, 101 gins, and the Racoon, 22, have arrived. It is mid that the Portuguese government have proposed the mediation of a foreign Power to the Marquis de Lisle de Siry, who insists on the giving up of the Charles- Georges. The Viscount de Paiva is expected at Lisbon. (TROY OITA OWN SPAIN. MADRID, Ocr. 13. The journals publish a letter from a friend of Imparter°, positively contradicting a report circu lated by O'Donnell's supporters, that the Duke of Victory would be pleased to see his old political friends voting for the present cabinet. Nothing is talked of in the political world but the forthooming elections. The civil governors of the provinces are very active. They go about can vassing energetically for the government candidates, and write menacing letters to the municipal autho rities, summoning them continually to the capital of the province, under the pretence of administrative business. This conduct of the government goes far to excuse the recriminations of the absolutists, who have always maintained that its impossible to carry out the representative system in Spain. In many provinces, candidates utterly unknown are thrust upon the electors. The military element is likely to enter largely into the composition of the new Cortes. ITALY. NICE AND VILLAFRANCA. NICK, Ocr. 13. As this is the moment when invalids are leaving England for the south, it may not be out of place to offer a few remarks on the climate of Nice. A few years ago the advantages of this climate were exag gerated beyond all reason; but lately a reaction equally unreasonable has set in to the prejudice of this town. The truth, I believe, is this : Nice is beneficial to patients who are not too far ad vanced in the stage of decline, and who will adhere strictly to the mode of living required by the pecu liarities of the climate. Unfortunately, many in valids are sent to the south when all hope of recovery has been abandoned by the physician at home. List steamer conveyed a foreigner who was in the last stage of consumption ; he died while being trans ported from the vessel to land. The sunny . position of Nice cannot fail to prove advantageous to invalids, but then the latter have a dangerous enemy in the cold mistral, in the draught which prevails in the neighbourhood of the river, and in the dust. The great merit of the spot is that every comfort may be obtained within its walls, in addition to excellent medical attendance and social enjoyments. The climate of Monaco and Menton is immeasur ably superior to that of Nies; bat then those towns are destitute of the comforts which are essential to invalids ; moreover, they are steeped in the most hopeless ennui. In Nice an English family willingly forgets the uncertainty of climate in the reflection that an English church, English shops, It nglish chemists and grocers, are at hand, along with English newspapers, round hats, red petticoats and goloshes. Numerous families, however, prefer Menton in spite of its dulness, and the fortunes of that little town are rising. Monaco is the most sheltered spot on the coast, but there the hotels are unsatisfactory, and the resident may become a victim to starvation, owing to the fact that this little principality pro duces nothing bat oranges, lemons, olives, and bad coin, and is entirely dependent on Nice or Menton for sound provisions. The municipality of Nice does its best to render the town agreeable to strangers, and the local jour nals rapport the efforts of the municipality with praise worthy spirit. Three theatres exist here, and are by no means despicable. The Theatre Royal is de voted to grand operas and possesses a very fair company. It has just opened the season with Linda di Chamonix, the Linda being represented by Mdlle. Boccabaclati. The boxes of this theatre, as is usual in Italy, are disposed of by public auction at the commencement of the season. The prices ob tained by the lessee this year were very high when compared with the attractions. The best boxes fetched on an average 781. sterling, while last year 98L was the average prioe. Three years ago the total sum obtained by the impressario for the lease of his boxes was sixteen thousand francs; his receipts for the present season are nearly sixty-five thousand francs. It may here be remarked that every thing has experienced a corresponding rise in value, and that the expenses of house rent and living are anything but trifling. This state of things is par tially to be attributed to the visit of the Empress Dowager of Russia, who spent money with a lavish hand, and was imitated in that respect by the crowd of Russian aristocrats who followed in her wake. Nice has nothing to gain by this rise, for one of the principal attractions of the place up to very recently was its cheapness. Alphonse Karr, the French satirist, will not have been forgotten by all of your readers, in spite of his long absence from the literary world. An exile hen, he has devoted much labour and time to the cultivation of flowers, fruit, and choice vegetables. His fame as a market gardener almost equals his literary reputation, and in Paris the produce of his farm fetches high prices. But it is one thing—as many an English gentleman can affirm—to grow magnificent fruit and flowers, and another question to dispose of the produce at remunerating prices. M. Karr has not made a fortune by his farm, and he has consequently again turned his attention to litera tare ; he has commenced the publication of a fresh series of the work which made his reputation in the days of Louis Philippe and M. Guizot—namely, "Lea Gu!pes." The household of the Grand Duchess Catherine of Russia has just arrived and is preparing the Villa Greeds for the reception of that Princess and her consort, the Duke George of Mecklenburg Strelits. The visit of the Grand Duke Constantine to Nice and Villafranca is certain, but I do not believe that the Russian squadron which is to accompany that Prince from the Baltic will proceed to Villafranca as announced by the Paris journals ; the Grand Duke will probably leave the line-of-battle ship and frigate at Toulon, and will arrive here in a steam corvette, which will subsequently transport him to the East. AUSTRIAN ITALY. MILAN, OCT. 12. Bose of the Piedmontate and French journals have professed to know that a coolness exists buttress the Archduke llaximffien and the government of Vienna. It has even been alleged that the Archduke, lading hkeself amble to effect the rekeves be had projected, was shoat to throw up his Uretettesey and retire to Belgium. TM truth is that alms the death el the Archduchess Margaret, which we a moo unexpected blow to him, the Archduke bee lived in secludes In hie pretty country house sear Trieste. In his absence all Madsen has been u it were surpesded, and people have at led ems to suppose that the lota of the Archduchess cannot be the sole reason for hie inactivity, sad that he must meet with impediments at View. At his last interview with the Emperor the Archduke plainly told him that public opinion in Lesabudy wee divided between regret for the loss of the old independence of the provisos and a hankering after the kingdom of Italy se it was coastitnted under Napoleon ; and that the only means to Oleos these recollections and engem der a new order of ideas would be to restore to the Italian province. their administrative liberty without thereby trenching upon the integrity of the Austrian empire. It woe thoight at the time that the Archduke had succeeded in im pressing his views upon the Court of Vienna, and that he had returned to the seat of his government with full powers to carry out his plane. It will be remembered that in a cir cular despatch, which wee very much commended, the Arch dale depleted that " the period of observation and expect lusty was at an end, sad that the time for action bad arrived." Six months bare sow elapsed since the lame of the futons circular, and people now very naturally begin to mak whet hue been done? The answer is, nothing whatever; and, in asmuch as the Archduke is very math liked, the supposition is that his good Intentions are paralyred by the government of Vienna.

There is an almost utter absence of news to-day, and the French papers contain scarcely anything worth quotation or comment. It is thought possible that news from Lisbon, with the answer of the Por tugese government to the instructions sent to M. Lisle de Siry by the Coligny, which left Lorient on the 18th, may be received in Paris to-morrow or Tuesday. The Slick, apropos of the affair of the Jew child Mortara, stolen from its parents by the Papal go vernment, presumes to reprint at length, underlining the principal passages, Louis Napoleon's oelebrated letter to Edgar Ney, dated August 18, 1849, in which the then President of the Republic summed up the terms in which he was prepared to consent to the restoration of the temporal power of the Pops in these words :—" A general amnesty, secu larisation of the administration, the Code Napoleon, and liberal government" The &ids thinks, or at least professes to think, that this letter decides the present question, and that if the civil laws of the Roman state " authorise such a crime, France can not associate herself even by tolerance with such a legislative iniquity. She must solemnly demand the repeal of such laws." PARIS, SATURDAY. The Conatitutionnel, by the pen of M. le Renee, states that the French Ambassador at Rome has received instructions to use all his efforts to make the Pope understand that public opinion in France was wounded beyond measure at the sequestration, on the pretence of religion, of the Jewish infant of Bologna. The Coastitutionnel lays down the common-moss doctrine adopted by the whole civilised world, with the exception of a few nit:montane bigots, that the natural power of the father over his children is paramount to any religions dogmas, and it proclaims that the French goverment cannot approve in Rome the doctrines which its minister@ have instructions to reprobate in Turkey. At the conclusion of this article it is stated that the oourt of Rome is deeply impressed with the difficulty, and that the official journal is about to publish an article showing that the Pope had no power to prevent what was done in the case of young Mortara. The Cosetitutionnel wisely abstains from expressing an opinion upon the prin ciples of canonical law which the court of Rome proposes to invoke in justification of its passive sanction of what has been done, but it expresses • hope that means will be found to prevent the recur rence of similar events. This seems to be an ad mission that young Mortara is not to be restored to his family. What becomes of the argument of the Univers that the civil law of Rome cannot be ob jected to by any catholic because it is made by the church ? If the Pope is forced by political neces sity and the indignation of the civilised world to confess that such deeds as the robbery of a child from his parent ought not to be sanctioned, what decent excuse can he have for not repairing the wrong in this particular instance ? An immense revolution was effected last night in the Quartier Latin. Those who have crossed the Pont Neuf after midnight, and proceeded along the Rue Dauphine to the Odeon Theatre and the neigh bourhood of the Luxembourg, cannot fail to have noticed that, while in other parts of the town all honase of pnblio entertainment were closed, in this joyous district the gas burnt brilliantly before restaurants, cafts, an d beershops, and that all was life and animation till two or three in the morning. These privileged bounce were the resort of the students and their mistresses. It was an accusation against the government of Louis Philippe by his unscrupulous enemies that he wished to sap the ' health and manly spirit of the youth of France by encouraging them in these nocturnal debauches. Subsequently it has been considered, apart from any such diabolical intentions, good policy to allow the young men, who it is assumed will hold nocturnal revels in some way or other, to meet in public where they can be watched by ke police. Last night, however, to the consternation of the whole quarter, an order was given and acted upon that all thew houses should be closed at twelve o'clock. We shall probably hear a great deal more of the matter. Whether for good or for evil, the change is nothing less than a social revolution. I understand that Prince Napoleon claims absolute jurisdiction over the prams in Algeria, and denies the right of the local authorities there to give warn ings without consulting him.

It was proposed to permit an independent journal to be established, under the patronage of the Duke of Meld, with the tide of Gazette ltationa, the Archduke hint. aril sapplying the capital. It is now understood that this journal will not appear. The Archduke had overruled the Interdiction of the censure to the circulation of leveed works, Cantu's "History of the Italians" monied other', but the censure has found mesas to maintain its prohibitions. A collection of historical documents is about to be publieked at Milan, but the condition is imposed that the work most ant he revised at Vienna. Everything, in short, indicates that the good intentions of the Archduke in small things ea well se in great are neutralised by the oontralisadon of Vienna. Things went better than they do now in the tim otßadetzky, when he gave his absolute orders from Verona. Nevertheless some people are sanguine enough to hope the the Ilniperor's affection for the Archduke will yet prevail over the routine obstinacy of the Viennese bureaucracy. THE AUSTRALIAN MAILS.
