Jr is commonly said that all great men do at some time or other sow their wild oats. However turbulent their youth may have been, or however long its heyday supported by a vigorous consti tution may have lasted, they do in the end listen to the sobering voice of reason, accept the results of experience, and, as wiser if not sadder men, ad dress themselves in a becoming spirit to the serious business of life. This period seems at length to have arrived even to the venerable strip ing who presides at the head of our na tional affairs, whose exhaustless and incor rigible juvenility has hitherto so largely resisted the mellowing touch of years. Lord PALMERSTON, being resolved apparently to forswear the diplomatic and political follies of his youth, seizes the opportunity of a visit to his old consti tuents to appear for the first time in his new character. Nothing, accordingly, could well be more mild and pacific, more serious and edifying, than his speech at the Tiverton Atheneum. He had not visited that pretty pocket borough for some years, and when he at length re-appeared it was in many important respects as an altered man. Very possibly the simple-minded natives may not at once have perceived the full extent of the change. The old manner was still there, the old happy instinct of compliment and common-place ; it was only the animating spirit, the old bellicose and defiant temper, that had altogether disappeared. Whatever may have been the cause, whether the repeated diplomatic fail ures and parliamentary reverses of the past session had chastened that high and exulting spirit, or whether his recent experiences at Brad ford had convinced the noble lord that the old sounding Ciris lioniunus sum style, which used to tickle the ears of the groundlings, would no longer be relished even in the depths of the province; as heretofore—whatever may have been the cause--the change itself is sufficiently strik ing. Lord PALMERSTON appears at his own " an cient" borough of Tiverton as the Apostle of Universal Peace. The brim of his hat must have been perceptibly broader, and there was evidently a peculiar unction in his greeting, as he patted the rustic urchins on the head and compli mented the roey-ebeetted maidens gathered in front of the Three Tuns Hotel. At the Corporation banquet in the evening, every sentence showed that he had exchanged the political thunder of the miles gloriosus for the mitis sapicntia Lalf, and was qualifying himself to edit • new international treatise Dc Amicititi. In recording this surprising change we can only express a fervent hope that the Pararma's con version may be sincere and enduring, and that the deep pacific impressions under which he evidently spoke on Tuesday evening may not be as the morning cloud and early dew, which vanish away. In harmony with his new character Lord Per, wErunnic began with • serious subject, the state and prospects of the Church. A previous speaker having referred in terms of approval to his eccle siastical appointments, the noble lord not only assumed to himself the full measure of praise, but went on to enlarge very considerably upon the im portance and responsibility of his religious functions as Bishop-maker. While allowing that such digni taries as Bishops and Archbishops filled important offices, he intimated clearly enough that there was another post of far higher moment to the welfare of the Church—that which he himself had the honour to fill. As patron of the chief preferments within the Establishment, he modestly allowed that he was the Arch Fismen who wielded the ecclesiastical destinies, and decided to a great extent the reli gious character both of the nation and the Church. On a good choice of bishops depends, in the first place, the moral and religious training of the country ; and, secondly, the preservation of har mony within the Church, as well as of a good un derstanding between the Establishment and other religious denominations. The latter point Lord PALMERSTON emphasizes, congratulating himself as a composer of theological differences, and the healer of practical fends within the Church. There will, he conferee, indeed always be differences of opinion on some points, but in relation to these we are told, " what can "be done, and what ought to be done, " is, that those who hold high office, " and those who are at the bead of the Established " Church, should by their bearing towards those who " differ from them in religions opinions, mitigate " those acerbities which are perhaps inherent in " the diversities of opinion on so important a " matter both here and hereafter." From which tremendous ellipsis it appears that in Lord PALMERSTON'S opinion the religious differences which divide good men on this side of the grave will be perpetuated in a future state. Perhaps, however, we ought not to attach to theme words the meaning they don't quite express, and that the Flamm; being rather new to the subject, instead of wishing to propound any doctrinal novelties, merely fell into a little rhe torical confusion. If he continues in his new career, however, he will soon get over these initial diffi culties, and after a diligent course of reading in controversial and patriotic theology, may pro bably be able to express his ohesdul views of " hen and hereafter" with greater clearness and precision. For the rest, Ire need only look at the internal Mats of the Church and its relation to other religious communities to feel the propriety and justice of Lord PauaraeroN's modest suggestion that his ecclesiastical appoint ments have rendered the Church a happy family. From the Church, where all is peace, the noble lord turns with visible reluctance to the world, where, it must be confessed, unsanctified passions do still occasionally break out. Like the dove, however, sent forth from the Ark, he finds amidst • troubled world • congenial resting-place for the sole of his foot in the pacific policy of her MAIISTY'S Government. At the outset of his allusion to secular subjects he bolds forth an olive branch to the professed opponents of war, intimating that, while hardly prepared to join the section reputedly in favour of peso at any price, his own views were, after all, substan tially identical with those of that much maligned party. Lord PALICEBSTON is persuaded that these friends of pesos, if they thought the interest and honour of the country were at stake, would join in its defence by whatever means, personal or otherwise, they could command ; and Heaven forbid that either he or the Government should ever do more ! They had, it is tree, been sorely tempted to de part from their pacific polioy--first, in the case of Poland, and more recently and in a still more urgent manner by the unequal struggle in Den mark. The noble lord, however, had self-denying virtue enough to resist these strong temptations, and remained faithful to his mission as the friend of humanity and apostle of peace. While thus claiming on behalf of the Government enor mous credit for having kept out of hos tilities in Europe and America, Lord Psr.rrtaeroN omitted, no doubt through inadver tence, to state whether the Government bad been equally successful in our own outlying stations and dependencies—such:as New Zealand and the Gold Coast, for example. Without touching on these comparatively trivial matters, he concluded his address as he began, by a touching homily on the arts of peace and the national prosperity they pro duce, intimating very justly and seasonably that the main business of the Governmemt is to afford every facility for the development of these art. At Tiverton, Lord Parmxszrox appears as the political Prospero drowning his book, breaking his staff, and abjuring for ever the rough magic which convulsed the elements. If this wonderful transformation is due merely to change of scene, Devonshire must be a perfect Arcadia, and the air of Tiverton be fanned by breezes from the Blessed Isles. Having, however, at length seized the crook of peace, and betaken himself to a pastoral life, we trust that " England's great octogenarian " Passim," as a local contemporary felicitously puts it, will henceforth abstain from the mischievous pastime of frightening the simple townspeople by unseasonable cries of " Wolf, Wolf !" gbe Com. °MORNS..

A banquet took place here this evening, in oon sequence of the usembly of the Council-General for the Department de la Loire. The Duke de Persigny, who presided, proposed the health of Napoleon 111. , " the founder of liberty in France." The duke's speech was a com plete review of the theory of the imperial consti tution. He showed the form of liberty to vary with every free people. "The present physiognomy of liberty, properly so called," said M. de Persigny, "maybe recognised by the striking signs of the soli dity and duration of governmenta which it founds, and above all by the passion it inspires for great things." M. de Persigny then demonstrated that the political institutions of England are not adapted for France, "it not being possible," he continued, " for authority or liberty to remain in the hands of one class, as in England. Instead of subordinating one class to another, it was natural to render them independent, and this is the fundamental principle of our insti tution." The speaker further said :—" In order that the liberty of the press may be a benefit, it is ne cessary, in a country newly constituted, that a new, vigorous, and independent political generation should arise to replace the minds enervated by in volutions."

The Athena brings 72 passengers, including the Hon. Mr. Rawson, the late colonial secretary, who hat been appointed governor of the Bahamas, Colonels J. G. Bawstone and Bey, Mrs. Stoltz, and seven children of the Moravian mission. Parliament was still in session. The whole of the government taxing bill had passed, together with a bill to provide for the formation of a sinking fund. Business continued dull, and money was seeking for investments. There was every prospect of a good harvest, the extent of land brought under cultivation exceeding the average of the previous years. - . Owing to the stoppage of the government works a large number of working men had flocked to Cape Town for employment, which could only be obtained at low remuneration. The intimation that free passages to New Zealand would shortly be offered by the govern ment of that colony bad induced numbers to determine to emigrate there. The prices of all kinds of colonial grown pro visions are low. The Bishop of Cape Town had returned from Natal, where he was very warmly received. The barque Saxon, seised by the United States steamer Vanderbilt at Angra Paquin', but re leased by the New York prize -court, had returned to Table Bay. Further news had arrived from the frontier of dissensions among the natives, and war between some of the tribes was oonsidered certain.

K Rouland, minister of state, has just de livered a speech at the opening of the coun cil general of the Lower Seine. To some, after a recent trial of thirteen important citizens, certain remarks made by the minister may seem at variance with the real position of Frenchmen. M. Ronland, however, has assured his hearers that the Emperor wishes authority to be honoured and powerful, in order that evil passions may be restrained, and the greatest pos sible good effected. He states that the government, watching with equal solicitude over the respect due to social repose and over the development of all those liberties which are favourable to real progress, hie Majesty wishes all citizens labouring for any legitimate end to enjoy freedom of action, and he desires also to see the state protecting and encou raging everywhere, and never giving way to useless jealousies. M. Rouher has also spoken at Puy de Dome, praising the interior organisation of France and the wisdom of the centralisation which is to be effected by giving extended powers to the coun cils general. M. Rouher is of opinion that universal suffrage reigns in France, and that all classes are legally represented. There is a great religious movement going on in this country, and the bishops are whipping up their flocks, with vague indications as to bad times coming, with miracles and the resurrection of saints. There was lately at Autun an exhumation and a beatification, and to such a degree had the minds of the people been excited that it was found necessary that the priestly performers should threaten with excommunication whoever should dare to plunder, no matter how small, a morsel of I the venerable body. Under the segis of the church the multitude saw appear successively the head of the saint which had one day been pressed to our Saviour's bosom, and then the remainder of the body. in spite of the threats of the church, the greatest difficulty was experienced in preventing tbe crowd from precipitating itself on the holy body to kiss it and share its bows.
