LONDON, TUESDAY; SEPT. IS. -- • ' SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. A SPECIAL EDITION of the " EXPRESS," sentaining the results of the day's Races, is pub- liehed every evening daring the Sporting 810.0011, at sea o'clock. Ezrzre in that portion of Italy which owns the constitutional sway of the 1100013 of SAVOT, the tribune has long been closed, and journalism is com- pulsorily mute. But the ever-bubbling fountain of popular hope wells up continually through every chink and cranny in the stony surface of absolutism. Do what they will, the confederates of Vienna and the Vatican cannot extinguish the loathing that is Alt for their usurping rale, or the longing that is cherished for national independence. Repreesata- tire institutions exist not, and newspapers are re- duced by the censorship to the most abject Neolithic of raising' : but History and the Drama are still comparatively free, and the Academy and the Stage become every now and then the unintentional =WI of utterance for the burning thoughts of the na- -1 tion. Two remarkable ebullitions of irrepremilile feeling have recently taken place—the one at Venice ; the other in the capital of Tuscany. la the former city—ennobled by its glorious defence against the Austrians in 1848, but since then die- t clued to have been brought back to sentiments of loyalty and love to Austria, by the winning ways of that paternal Government—a series of dramatic repre- sentations have been given during the present month by Madame Itorroal. Amongst other pieces odes- p la lishod ted to actress, displsy the me O 1 l varied sctiait ta Crrients's o f f the ll smaal. known tragedy of " Judith." The theatre we. crowded. ' and the audience listened with sympathy and ed- miration to the gradual development of indignant courage in the Hebrew heroine. But when in the fulness of her unrivalled power Rlsroat pronounced the lines—" Name my name to your children, and " tell them that the war is sacred which is waged " by a nation against those who invade a land given " to its defenders by their God !"—the audience rose as one man, and gave vent to all the passionate ex- cite's:not which the children of the Soak when deeply I moved, are accustomed to display. It was in vain that the graceful artist strove by her looks sad gestures to appease their tumultuous applause, and sought permission to resume the enactment of her part. JUDITH and the foe of Israel seemed swept away from their memories by the sudden whirlwind of popular passion ; and the air was rent with lenitive* and imprecations spinet Austria. In the Ant subsidence of the storm, a repetition of the magic line* wet called for. Compliance would have been an infection of a notorious orJer of the police, made to guard against mandates of the kind from the *adieux*. HISTOIII hesitated for a tiro., and then withdrew to ask permission. The Co.. missary was absent., and to pacify her frenzied hearers, she finally came forward and gave the ominous words again. The anger of the authorities is not worth describing; and it is almost superfluous to add that the guilty play was next morning erased free the list of pleasures permitted to the disaffected Venetians. In Florence a demonstration not lees enthusiastic, although of a more genial kind, spontaneously took place at the principal theatre not many days been. The occesiess was the unlooked-for appearance as a spectator of NICCOLINI, the most distinguished Italian poet of the day. For some years previous to the accession of the present Poscrwr be had actively sympathised with the leaders of the Liberal party he their aspirations for national freedom, and his pea had been employed in the composition of various historic pieces, through all of which there breathed the animating love of liberty. When Pits IX. assumed the leadership of Progressive Reform, many of the Liberals like 010111111T1 believed the true path of their country's salvation had been found. , while many more distrusted " the Grecian gift," and avowed their disbelief that any lasting political freedom could some hoe the Papacy. To the latter opinion NICCOLINI vehemently adhered. A schism arose between those who had formerly been friends ; the prescient vision of the poet revealed to him dimly the fatal fruits of the illusion to which his credulous companions had given themselves up; and the dis- sawn nese of the reactionary struggle which so speedily ensued laid his spirit prostrate in despair. 111-natured people gave out that he was mad, and the obstinacy of his seclusion from the world tended to confirm the impression. Of late it has been ru- moured, however, that the patriarchical dramatist' was neither demented nor idle, and that the world I would ere lag have proofs that his pea had not forgot its cunning. Whether the streaks of another dawn, which seem once MVP visible in the Florentine sky, contributed to awaken him to his old energy, and to Are him back to the once loved haunts of men, we know not. All we learn is, that upon his entering the crowded theatre the other evening his ketone were at once recog- nised, and he wee saluted by the whole house with the most vociferous cheering. Some days after a new tragedy by Ntiacouzst was produced, seder the title of Mano e i Cl"sbri.

It ease time since BALDABBIIOII7, the principal Minister of the GRAND DUX', incurred the denunciation of the Ultra-Montanistv among the clergy, by his successful rcsistince to their schemes of saerceehment over the temporal power. Gradually, eachossiesso, is a variety of imialltmatters, have since then been silently made; and the rigour of the oen morehip over new pablioations has been greatly miti gated. A volume of GITICCILILDINes political writ ings, not generally obtainable in Italy, has ben lately published at Fianna., the whole besting and tendency of which is eminently anti-despotic and anti-Austrian. The remembrance of what occurred in 1848 la too fresh in men's minds to render the growth of political oontidenee an easy matter. After swearing to main tain the constitation under all eireumstaness, and to aid the other States of Italy in the expulsion of the stranger, the GRAND Dun notoriously became an accomplice with the Austrians in the overthrow of the representative system and the occupation of his capital by German troops. Neverthelms, as we have said, there are again symptoms of revival of popular hope, if not pledgee of royal repentance. The example of Piedmont is irresistible. In 1848 Constitutionalism in Italy wu an untried them f— la 1858 it is an accomplished and palpable fact. Ten years ago nobody doubted that it would secure practical liberty ; but many people honestly doubted that it could resist foreign absolutism, or maintain domestic order. In Piedmont it his now for ten years dons both. There is no longer m;sgiving or dispute upon the subject. Evil/ man of sense in Tuscany longs to me the example followed there which has been so instructively set by the Govern ment of Sardinia; and the most timid of Grand Dual councillors begin to feel that the stability and security they are so anxious to preserve might, after all, be more effectually maintained by being just end fearing not. A emit was reported in our impressiou of Saturday last which, in the interests of the public security, it is utterly impossible to pew over. It was an inquest on the body of a highly respectable woman, Mr.. I MALE AXE Moons, the wife of Mr. Lawts Moons, the proprietor of the Jewellers' Arms, in St. Jrwee's-walk, Clarkenwell. The poor woman had died of apoplexy at one o'clock in the afternoon of Wednesday last, at the Royal Free Hospital, Gray's-inn-road, under the following deplorable cireemstancas: The deceived, who wee described is a most exemplary and affectionate wife and a per son of extremely sober and regular habits, had attended service at St. James's Church on the Tuesday evening, and returned horns in excellent health and spi-its. Shortly after her return from church she had proposed to her husband to join her in • walk. From some cause or other he we prevented going out with her, and she left the house alone. He supposed, as the fact was, that she had gone to a neighbour with wham she was intimate. and it was not till the night wore on to 12 o'clock that he became aunty and went in search of her. On making inquiries he learnt from a policeman that in the course of the evening • woman bad been picked up in • partially insensible state in Wilmingtos-equare, and taken to the Clerkenwell police-station. The husband went at ones to the station, and, from inquiries made there, soon became convinced that the person so dealt with wee his missing wife, who was then in a cell in the station, when she had been locked up on the charge of being drunk and incapable of taking are of herself. Mr. MOODIN represented to the Inspector in the etrongewt terms that his wife was a person of extremely sober habits, and that the charge of her being insensible from drink could not possibly be correct. His re pneentatians were received with indifference or in credulity. He begged earnestly to be permitted to see his wife. His urgent request wu peremptorily refined. He then implored the Inspector to be allowed to call in his own medical man. This petition wu also rejected, and the poor woman was kept in the cell till 4 o'clock in the morning, when she was removed, still in a state of insensibility, to the Royal Free Hospital. The husband followed her there. The dying wife just recovered sufficient 0011/OiOOlllllOlS to recognise him, muttering faintly the words "My htuiband." Bhe never rallied, and expired lathe hospital at one o'clock in the afternoon. A post insweites examination disclosed the canes of death— axtravaiation of blood on the brain, the effects of natural apoplexy. Further inquiry before the Coroner elicited the circumstances under which the poor woman had become en inmate of the Clerken well police-station. The friend whom she had been visiting on the Tues day evening had jest parted with her—abe being then is a perfect state of sobriety sod apparent health--when she wee observed by the bystanders, in passing through Wilmington-square, suddenly to fall from the pavement into the roadway. This was shortly before 10 o'clock. She woe picked up, and placed on a door-step, when the attention of the pollee was called to the case. 47 0 came up to her, and asked her where she lived. She wee sufficiently sensible to give her true addrees-10, St. Jamie's walk—which was scarcely a stone's throw from the spot where she was found. 47 0 admitted that in ewes, where the addreas was known the friends were generally sent to. In the ease of this poor woman nothing of the kind was done, and the husband for more than two hours afterwards was left utterly ignorant of her fate, which at last he only ascertained by his own inquiries. The Police Inspector who entered the charge on the sheet as aces of incapable dna keauess, alleged in his own defense that he relied in two medical men to seethe deceased, both of whom easearred in the opinion that the cue was one of helpless intoxication. The two persons whose testi mony was thus cited were not examined as wit nesses at the inquest, and it is impossible, therefore, to ascertain what degree of attention, if any, they paid to the case, or what trouble they took in arriving at a judgment which the event has shown to be so utterly erroneous. With regard to the refusal to allow the husband to see his wife, the Inspector had nothing to allege, except a general rule not to permit prisoners to see their friends. In the conned his ramming up the Coroner is reported to have expressed an opinion that even early medical aid could not have eared the life of the deemed. Any considered opinion on a medial point earning from Mr. WARLST is entitled to due respect; but here, again, it is obvious to remark that it would be more satisfactory had the scientific grounds for this opinion been elicited from the medical authorities of the hospital. The prima facie medallion is, that is way ogee of apoplexy, the chanose of saving life depend, more than in almost any other form of &sass, upon the prompt and energetic administra tion of proper remedies. It will probably require something more then the official opinion of Mr. WARLEY to satisfy the public that keeping this poor aresture in a cell for six long hours after the attack bed first seized her, without any attempt at apply tug any curtails; process whatever, had not some thing at least to da with the rapidly fatal termina tion Ober sufferings. Bet be thlw as it may, what an be more unen durable than the exclusion of a husband nada. such circumstances from the presenoe of hie dying wife by the omit-iron pedantry of a foolish role, worked by ignorant officials P This poor woman—this ex cellent and irreproachable wife—lived fourteen hours altogether after she was so suddenly struck down by the visitation of GOD. Of theme fourteen hours, six were passed under look and key in a pri son all, all access being rigorously denied to her husband and her own medical attendant. This will never do. It may be urged that the 0408 is an exceptional ale; bat the answer is that it may be the ems of any one of us to-morrow. Sodden attacks of this kind are by no means of such nnfrequent occurrence. Is it to be contended that every unfortunate fellow creature who may fall in the public streets under the stroke of epilepsy, or apoplexy, or heart disease, is at once to become the victim of the stretcher and the cell; to be charged as drank and incapable by some coarse and blundering guardian of the peace; to be entered accordingly in the police-sheet; to be shut up all night, inexorably debarred from friends or medicalaid, and to be turned out next morning inti a hospital to die? Ttat such a case should only once have happened is quite enough to entitle the public to insist on the relaxation of a rule which has led to results so deplorable. But we do not believe that this kind of thing has only happened ones, and we are quite sure that till the whole I system of cellular restraint by the police is put on another footing and subjected to a more rational set of rules—there is no sort of security against its hap pining again and again. We are no friende to the Mate. Liquor Law as it exists on the other side of the Atlantic, but we have a still stronger objection to the Mayne Liquor Law as now administered by the polies of the Metropolis--e law under which any Inspector may shut up in a cell for a whole night, without access to friend or medical attendant, any human creature afflicted in the public streets with temporary insensibility, on the life and death chance that such insensibility may turn out to be the effect of drunkenness and not of disease. The Coroner and Jury hit the common-sense view of the matter, when they suggested that the rule excluding friends and medical attendants should be different in oases of alleged drunkenness from that which prevails in criminal cams. It is for the Commissioners of the Police to use to it that these suggestions are attended to without Ices of time. Death by cellular treatment, as the penalty of insensi bility superindeocel by disease, is not the sort of thing that Englishmen will be disposed to stand, even as an occasional and untoward *vest. The system that renders it possible under any circum stances is a bad system, and must be forthwith altered. EDt court. BALMORAL, SW?. 26.

(7103 003 OWN PARIS, MONDAT EYINING7 In the Univers M. Xavier de Fontana gives us one of those solemnly ridiculous anti-English articles, which, from the amusement they afford, are so welcome on a day when there is rarely suy intelligent,e of importance. I would willingly give your readers the benefit of the whole, but it is very long, and one may get tiled of too much even of the very funniest thing. Oar author regrets that the glorious days of Louis XIV. are no more, when there was throughout the kingdom a wholesome hatred of England and the English. To be rare this hatred did not extend t the Protestant subjects of the Great Monarch, who generally had their sons brought up either there or in Holland: and of whom, when the father of his people revoked the edict of Nantes, some 100,000 took refuge with the natural foes of Prance. This great national disaster, from which France never has recovered, and never will recover, is of too little importance to be dwelt upon by M. de Fontanes. The fist importation of that contraband article, Anglomania, he places in the reign of the Sixteenth Louis :—" God knows," he says, " the good king himself was innocent of the act. He, in imitation of his glorious ancestor, the fourteenth of his name, was satisfied with being French." He thought French society had nothing to learn from English society, and that there was humiliation in aping England. He never let an opportunity escape him of publicly displaying his aversion for whatever came from the other side of the Channel. Apropos of this, it is related—but not mentioned by M. de Fontanes--that on the return of one of his nobles from England, he asked what the traveller had learnt in that country. "To think (passer)," was the reply. " Ah, you mean parser is. chemists ! (to dress horses)," said his Majesty. But to return— " Anglomania has survived the revolution and the great wan of the empire. It still exists in spite of the numerous causes which separate France from England. We candidly admit that we cannot com prehend this passion —this enthusiasm for a country which has always been hostile to us." Now comes a grand discovery. The missions of France and Eng land are indeed wide apart : " England is the world's cotton-spinner. France is the missionary of the Gospel!" It maddens our author to see how the num skulls of the Debate and the Sisinie—the Michel- Chevaliers, the Parasols, the LO la B6dollidres— on all occasions quote English statistics when treat ing of French commerce and French agriculture. England and France are antipathic countries, with no community of thoughts, feelings, habits, aims. How absurd to pretend that on ought to imitate the other! How doubly absurd to argue that because the one is behind the other in commerce and agriculture, she is, as a nation, at all the inferior of her rival ! " What though English commerce reaches seven milliards, while that of Frans is be tween threeand four, oar wants are less than those of England(although we hen a population of something like ten millions more than she has), and our soil gives us far mss than does that of England._ln can of necessity, France could exist without the sea. Without the sea, famine would devour the English people . . . England gets on tolerably well with the liberty of the preen and parliamentarian). Experience has taught us, since 1815, that France I cannot exist under such a rlyinte, that it would prove our destruction." Now follows a passage which might have been printed from a Sy-leaf ef Louis Blanc's note-book : " Although Lanus has far some years put enjoyed the distinction of containing all the professors of barricades in Europe, what a poor' affair is an English outbreak! It is a mere farce. A ragged mob breaking windows and hallooing. Their ordinary weapons are stone--very few of them have ever haadled a musket. Fifty dragoons show themselves, and all is over ! In France, on the contrary, an trusts is a terrible battle. What, blood his flowed in the streets of Paris since 1830!" With respect to agriculture, although M. Lavergne is quoted to prove that we can show no farming equal to that in the department of the Nord--inns mach as it nits the legitimist writers of the Univers I to applaud our system of primogeniture, our general superiority in all that concerns the management of land is accounted for by the fact that estates with as may remain entire from one generation to another. But a heavy sharge is made against England, of which she is surely Innocent. " Formerly French 'society was renowned for its urbanity, its bon tow, its exquisitely choice language. Now, the cigar has replaced oonversetion. Whence is this chews P It is because the club has replaced the drawing room—the °lab, that British importation The Adglo•maniec may rejoice, but what has society gained P Should we not have done better to remain I French, Wu car forefathers ?" Admitting that the ER 28, 1858. slab, as at present comstitute4 is an English insti tution t and that Paris has homed her clubs on the English model—before the change for the worse in bench manners, mentioned by M. de Fontanels (irshich may or may not be the fact) is set down as our doing, it must be proved that the introduction of clubs on their existing scale in London bee had the effect of lowering the standard of manners in England. I boldly deny that it has, and I protest against the illogical assertion of the writer in question. To give him his due, how ever, he terminate, hie article with a handsome compliment to England. After observ ing upon the Frenchmen, whose constant study is how they may be mistaken for Englishmen—who stick an English cockade on their grooms' hats— import cargoes of English governesses for their children, and who disguise these little beings in highland costumes—he says : iilty cannot Frenchmen, if they admire nothing that does not proceed from the beets of the Thames, Instead of be aming bad copies of British absurdities, Imitate that which is really great in the English—their spirit of patriotism ? To the Englishman there is nothing above his ooantry. Even when he sees anything really =parlor to his own In other countries, he will not admit it. And he is right. I am aware that British pride is boundless. But is It not better to elevate than to depreciate ms's country? The Englishmen pre serves his own morale, wages, and habits. He would feel humiliated in aping another poople. Let us imitate him, and remain French. The dosage de Erases has an article to-day, es it had yesterday, condemnatory of the result of the commission on the Danubian Provinces, which it terms a triumph of Austro-Engliah policy. "The conference," it says, " has, after five months of labour, brought forth a double-headed child. This is a phenomenon in politics, as well as in physiology." If the Borsen Halle is to be believed, the expla nation, which, according to the instructions of M. de Cavoar, may be supposed to have given to Eng land upon the Villafranoa ai bir, have not been satis factory. The cabinet of St. James's has, according to that paper, instructed its minister at Turin to de mand further explanations.

Constrained, contrary to his will, by force and violence, to submit to acts against which radon, justice', and law pro. test, he may have been ; but these acts will never have the sanction of his conscience, and his Majesty 101 always con ' eider them as as outrage to his sacred person, against which he be mean. of reacting. The' heart of his Majesty knows not forartfulnese. Hie Majesty was profoundly wounded whim Franos and England, without; rearm, contrary to International law, and for oauses which were in reality only meats, withdrew: their ministers from his court. Having bun thus offended, and the offence not having been mitigated by the subsequent conduct of the two powers, his Sicilian Majesty would con sider himself humiliated in his own eyes, in the eyes of his subjects, and of Europe, if he took any slaps to bring about a reconciliation. _ _ - Whntherepreeen entire@ of the two courts resided here, all the movements of the monument were watched, scanned, and =sawed, and each independent act of its so vereignty wee subjected to an innetigationns annoying as it was wounding. Bina the prevenient has been freed from this interference sad uniustiflable control, its movements have been more free, more rapid, and the happy subjects of his Majesty have reaped the boats al the Menge. . . All that pealed, all that vs& mid at Cherbourg on this subject, In no way Mime us ; kw nothing has been done or rid at our suggestion, bat mutably as a result of the desire szpremed at the Court of England by the powers friendly to our sovereign, and principally by Prussia sad Bavaria. This does not imply, however, that a reoonellation with Poe two European powers would not be very agreeable to us ; but as it was not the king who caused this rupture, se it will not be by the king that the first steps towards reran ciliation are taken. . . .

(FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.) NEW YORK, Sur. 16. Staten Island has been placed under martial law, and a body of troops now holds possession of the quarantine grounds and some portion of the district adjoining. This, however, is the only appearance of martial law that there is. In other resists* and in all other places, the constituted authorities gill bear sway. The Board of Health and the Executive of the State are placed in a somewhat embarrassing dilemma as to what course they gelid pursue with regard to the rebuilding of the Quario. tine. There is a very decided feeling prevalent amongst all classes against its present site, both from the danger to which it exposes the inhabitants of the island and its vicinity to New York. But if, on the other hand, it is now removed to any other place, however desirable, the change will unmistakeably wear the ap pearance of succumbing to intimidation, and afford encouragement for future displays of mob violence. It is hard to decide whether yellow fever or lynch law is the worse evil, and yet under present circumstances it is almost impossible to take proper precautions against both. An action about to be commenced against the county to make it responsible in damages for the mischief done, estimated at about 50,0001. ; but whether it will be possible to get a verdict against it is another ques tion. The same may be said of the leading rioters-- all of whom are in custody, and are under bail to appear for triaL I do not think, however, that one of them ever will be convicted. The Atlantic Telegraph is still silent, and serious apprehensions begin to prevail es to whether it may not be after all a failure. Probably long ere thus reaches you, manages will be flashing to and fro, a thousand in the day, but in the meantime the multi tude is enjoying its royal prerogative of doubting. The theory is being propounded here in rather an authoritative way that the whole thing must of necessity be a failure, owing to the want ot all means of regulating the velocity of the electrical vibrations along the cable. How tar this is tree I must leave to the electricians to decide. In the meantime the crowd, as its manner is, is just as faint-hearted now as it was jubilant three weeks ago. The South, curiously enough, has never partaken of the excitement about the cable. The planters are dreadfully afraid that it will enable the cotton speculators, of whom they have a holy horror, to victimise them in a most alarming manner. How, it is hard to see, unless they suppose, and naturally enough, that the merchants in the ( , resit towns will be in possession of earlier intelligence than the cotton lords in the interior, or that enterprising in dividuals on the other side will use the cable as a medium for the transmission of false news. John Mitchel, the " Irish exile," who now edits a pro. slavery paper in the South, and clamours for the re-opening of the slave trade, speaks of it as " the thrice accursed cable." I imagine it may safely be predicated that none of the pro-slavery party are anxious to see the anti-slavery North brought into closer contact with anti-slavery England. To give you an idea of the extent to which the feeling of sectional animosity is carried of late years, I may mention that efforts are being made by a cor poration of ladies to buy Washington's house and tomb at Mount Vernon, to be held by them in trust for the nation. Their plan of operations consists simply in the collection of one dollar each from as many women in the whole Union as can be got to give it. So 'strong, however, is the anti-slavery feeling at the North that the agents of the associa tion find great difficulty in many localities in raising any sum, however small, owing to the fact that the house and tomb lie across the border and in a slave state. Great as is the general reverence for Wash ington's memory, the detestation of the South is stall greater. The captain of the Echo, the captured slaver, was brought here by the olphin, for the pur pose of sending him back to Charleston to be tried at the same time as his crew. The authorities here, however, declined to take charge of him for the purpose of transmit him to any other place, which they had no authority to do, so he was carried on to Boston, deli vered over to the United States marshal, and will be tried there. This may be said to be a sheer acci dent, but it is in all respects • piece ot very good fortune, inasmuch as it is almost as certain that a j Boston ury will convict him as that a Charleston jury would have disagreed or acquitted him. In fact, when he was here he was chuckling over the prospect of a speedy deliverance at the hands of the ink Carolinians, and is dreadfully crest-fallen at finding himself on trial in the focus of abolitionism. He is at present undergoing a preliminszy . examina tion before an United States commissioner. If he is convicted the President will find himself in a dilemma about the execution of the sentence. On the one hand, the North, and England, and decency itself, will imperiously require that he should put the law in force; on the other, the Southern fire-eaters will move heaven and earth to save an honest nigger-dealer from the gallows. Now vorrons. The expedition against Paraguay, so long I; is im pending, at last on the point of starting. are various small wrongs to avenge, which probably deserve avenging, but one of the objects of the enterprise is rather curios& They propose to compel Paraguay to ratify • treaty in which alterations of form were made after it had been framed at Wash ington. This is certainly something new in diplomacy. Rion Ruffs ix Paint —A letter from Paris g : —.‘ Landlord's,* &oddity a pries for ceramists . which neither the middle nor the lower caddli pay.
