Ir is an unmixed goodie tkia aset of searoinsise to find a public man thous:4olp trio to himself ; to fool that after all we have seas =mg» as who cannot bo land,» lectured, into haring their self »sped, in exchange for power, popularity, Cr pay ; and to know that the clear and chairing light of individual character it not all goes Out is our qualifying and temporising generation. Mr. Coupon's unaffected speech to his oonetitnents at Rochdale irresistibly suggests to us these emotions. Elected unanimously by the people of ono of the mat thriving towns of Lancashire while he was in a distant land, and having taken no part in the struggle that resulted in the fall of the Dorbyito Adentnistration, he found on his arrival in England that the place of all others he must feel that he is fitted to fill had not only been kept open for him, but that amongst those of hie own class, with whom he may be supposed mare especially to sympa thise, a very general sediment prevailed that he ought not to hesitate to take °Mos. Ho did not hesitate, but, after hearing respectfully all his friends had to say on the subject, bo gently but unwaver ingly declined. He told Lord Petiedurro• that he was ratified by the offer, and by the manner in which it had been made. He talked no nonsense about preferring the freedom of an inferior station. H. asked for no pledges which he knew could not be given as to the fatigue policy of the new Cabinet. Ile simply and ingenuously »- minded Lord Pats IllviOn that for the chief part of his political lib he had openly opposed the soops and tendency of the PRIXIIIR'S foreign policy ; and even if he had sonestisses misinterpreted it, bo thought it wesM not be for the credit of either that he should suddenly ho found acting in am p». posed capacity. Mr. COSDEIC lays no stress on the earnestness of k conviction in times peat that Lord PAIJCIISTON'S policy was too demonstrative. Rightly or wrongly, the boo. member for Rochdale bad incurred the responsibility of leading others to oppose it; and, until he was prepared to renounce his specific opinions thereon, he could not reconcile it to his sense of delicacy; or dignity to servo under the noble Viscount in a confidential and responsible capacity. There is not a tinge of repining or ill-humour about the plain, unvarnished tale; and however people may regret tae absence of such a man in the Administra tion, any one who values a high standard of consis tency and honour in our public men will appreciate as it deserves the disinterested part Mr. COBDEN has acted. We hare dwelt upon the personal topics first in his speech of Wednesday last, not that they occupy a prominent or engrossing space therein, bat because they are naturally those regarding which the in terest of most readers will be excited more pecu liarly under present circumstances. The staple of Mr. COBDEN'S address consisted of the need of Parliamentary Reform for the fake of abating corruption, if for no other reason; and the duty of resisting a spirit of panic about invasion, which renders cur country a subject of jibe and jeer to jealous neighbours and pretentious rivals in either hemisphere. Mr. Cottbus's picture of the absolute mockery of justice exhibited in our mods of trying the solidity of contested elections had all the force and freshness of an original sketch from actual life. Every feature and attitude is unfortunately but too familiar. But, as used to be said of his speeches on the Corn-laws, we all knew it all before, only none of us knew so well as we did atter we had heard him tell it. The remedies on whose efficacy Mr. Colt DEM chiefly reliesare the removal of the cost of petitions from candidates; the punishment of bribery as an ordinary misdemeanor indictable under direction of the ATTORNIT-OENIRAL without reference to any contest about a particular seat ; and, lastly, the enactment of the Ballot. His recent oppor tuuities of observing the working of this method in the United &stile have not led him to re noence his earlier impressions in its favour. He does not, indeed, set up America as in any sense • model for our imitatiot ; nor does he believe that Secret Voting would eradicate venality and baseness from the breasts of worthless men. lie is contest with urging that this and every other expedient, not is itself wrong, ought to be resorted to in order to check and limit, if we cannot destroy, undue ines toe, at elections. The views propounded by the member for Roch dale regarding Italian affairs are as nearly as possi ble identical with those of Lord JOHN Rusissu.. The one inviolable principle, by which he would in all contingencies stand or fall, is the right of the people to choose their own gamer roes, and to decide under what form of government they will live. "If," said Mr. CosbeN," some tem " porary begird respecting the maintenance of is " ternal order be involved in the adherence to this, great and glorious principle, then all I can say is, that. like oar own forefathers, who spout a belt " century of demotic disquietude for the sake et it, I would be mutest to take the risk." a sew era of mimed freedom dawning upon France? Msny are asking this question, mid espr to answer tt is the Mille of their wham or their fears. The non-official journals in Paris are hailing the good tidings of a general amnesty with a live liness of emotion which looks like a desire to make as much as possible of the boon, and the sterner dignity of positive mistanee melts into gratitade foe unexpected mercies. The Si, de, sever too austere, labours under a difficulty of celebrating the Impe rial decree io prose, and breaks into& sort of millen nial hymn of thanksgiving; while lutes& impremion able contemporaries express their satisfaction with out stint er grudge. We are very farfrom thinking that there ia any las of dignity is these heartfelt acknowledgments; for us they have another and MOM palatal moral. They b.ar witness to the deep and general want of such • decree, and to the pro found dejection of opinion in • esentry when the Government gives and takes away, confiscates and makes restitution, and is caned and Word accord THE EXPRESS, FRIDAY EVENING, AUGUST 19, 1869. ring'', but never called in question, except by same dirk conspiracy or frantic outbreak. This amsenty Decree, however, had in fact became an act of simple decency on the part of a Government which was recommending mercy and justice at Maple* and was not the weed " amnesty" written in the draft of Peace at Marranea ? Full of hops and premise, then, es it eartalnly is, we shall do well to asoderrate our terms of eulogy, so long at least ea the operation of regalar and equal law is not reesta blished, nor arbitrary measures of exception and violence put an end to, in France, by the band that signed the amnesty. The amnesty has been followed by enact of favour to the press, which may signify very little, or much more than appears on the face of it. AU warnings which have been given to the public journals are to be considered as nulL We are not in possession of the penal sta tistics of the French pram I but we have a suspicion that one of the last of the Parisian journals to sus tain a warning was no other than oar Christian friend the Nicer s, upon whom " warnings" sit as lightly as mercies disguised. The Ultramontane organ has rioted in license when all the rest of its contemporaries were sinking for want of a breath of liberty ; and we may be sure that any general re mission of political sins will be rather a lose than a gain to that organ of the sacristy, because under a system of secular repression it alone was never really in danger. This secondary amnesty to the press is not, we fear, a subject for very loud congra talations. It no more amounts to what we call liberty of the press than the proceedings on a Monday morning at our metropolitan police of tea gaol debt ery. It is a partial, occasional, and Incidental favour, welcome enough so far as it goes, bet indicating nothing like a change of regions. Indeed, if we are not mistaken, the administrative section of the press has just received a new and ;defi nitive organisation, and though the "warnings" may be fewer under the gentle sway of that ancient re publican journalist, M. DI is Oralomeianc, it does not follow that the quiet pressure upon the stops will be less of than before in the bends of so experienced an organist. How heartily all journalists, of all parties and opinions, on this side of the Channel, must desire to see their brethren on the opposite meat in the enjoyment of something like an equal freedom, no one who understands the peaceful influence" of an unrestricted intercommunion of thought between two great nations can for a moment doubt. It is no concern of ours to impress upon a foreign Government the advantage of being able to convince the world that it is not afraid of being dis reseed at home, end of meeting its rivals or its foes in the broad daylight of opinion. The present ruler of France is not one of those rulers who by nature regard public opinion ea an ansreltical inven tion. It was to public opinion that he was con stantly appealing when he too was a journalist. It is to public opinion that he professes to appeal still. Only as an Emperor he never waits for an answer. Six months of a free press and of regular law would do more to strengthen the bases of his dynasty, and to secure the respect and confidence of Europe, than myriads of secret police and swarms of drawing-room spies. In a country where individual liberty is unsafe, and only official voices are permit ted to speak above a whisper, six hundred thousand arguments cannot persuade the world that the best of Emperors is anything but an accident.

Yesterday the French and Sardinian Ambassadors had a conference. To-day a dinner is to be given by Count Collared°, on the occasion of the birthday of the Emperor Francis Joseph. PARMA AND PIACENZA. MODENA, Avoust 18. Yesterday the Chevalier Parini quitted Modena for Parma and Piacenza, to accept the dictatorship offered to him. The municipality issued a public proclamation, expressing their unanimous desire for this. The enthusium of the population wee very great, and Parma and Piacenza were illuminated. General Garibaldi has arrived at Modena. It is confirmed that he is charged with the command of the Tuscan army. TUSCANY. After the proposition for excluding the Lorraine dynasty had been adopted by the Tuscan chamber, a proposition was presented tending to the annexa tion of Tuscany to Sardinia. This proposition, which wu signed by a deputy from each of the towns of the duchy, wee referred to the committee. According to the propositions, the totes of the Assembly are to be recommended to the attention of the Emperor of the French. A letter from Florence states that there are two parties in the National Assembly of Tuscany, one which holds that the union with Piedmont should be voted with a clause that, should there be political reasons against its realisation, Tuscany would accept other princes not belonging to the House of Lor raine; the other proposes to rote the union with Piedmont without any clause, and let the powers settle the question otherwise, should that coons meet with difficulties. The former are called unionists of the hypothesis, and the latter pure unionists. The former, on the election of the Presi dent, mustered 76 strong in favour of Lambrusehini, the latter only 74 in favour of Coppi ; but a second ballot gave 100 votes to Coppi, and 73 to Laminas chin i, showing thakat the first ballot several members had abstained from voting. The _At* of Napoleon was celebrated at Florence by a solemn ma. at the cathedral, at which the ministers, the members of the national assembly, and the officers of the staff were present. TURKEY.

A letter from Constantinople says C. Ben; who has tern connected with the Egyptian Railway for sante years, has bean promoted to the tank of Bey, and appointed ci:ief transit agent at Alexandria." The Jesuits hare been driven out of the town of Porll, in the Pontifical Stater, and their property confiscated for the benefit of the town.

EXPRESS FROM PARIS. pact OM own PARIS, TRVMDAT K,LNTWO. A letter from Saint Eleanor says : The Emperor and Emmet will ;rive at Tarbe on the 115th. Their Majesties will slop at the chateau of If. Ford, and will take their &et bath at St &uproar oa the worniag of the 19th. They are to take in sit 18 batba, ane per day. [lf there be any medical reason for the reties number of then baths, it is rather singular that the Emperor after his rude Italian campaign, and the Emprees after her quiet simmer sojourn at St. Cloud druid require just the rase nutmeat.] At present =eons, carpenters, and gar dens's in employed in and about the bathhouse, and amidst the confasion and now they create, the bather, hays to manage as well as they cr. Two bath-rooms have bean constructed, one for the Emperor, the other for the Empress. They are elegantly fitted up, and the bathe in them, like those of the other bathers, an in grey marble. The limper and Empire sad %beer suites are to occupy three houses situated at one of the extremities of the village, which coll een of only one street. The faraiture for the three hours has been brought from the palace at Pea. Sixty infantry ✓id ten cavalry soldiers of the guard an to be in attrition on their Majesties. It is by direction of Dr. Bayer that the Emperor and Empress are going to we their short sewn at Saint Error. It is stated that both the Emperor and Empress will go to the Chalons camp immediately after their return from Biarritz at the end of September. The Emperor told the generale, when he was at the camp a few days ago, that he intended to put them through a number of grand =mimes, simulating movements actually executed during the late war in Italy. The Duke of Magenta will probably be made commander of the forces in Algeria. A report has been going about Paris all day, that Marshal Canrobert has been killed in a duel by Marshal Mel. The story is, I believe and trust, untrue. I have made inquiries in many quarters where such an event, if it had happened, could scarcely fail to have been known, and, although the rumour has been beard of, it is generally discredited. The French journals (with the exception of the legitimist and jesuitical organs, which are silent on the subject) hail the amnesty with the most hearty and unreserved approbation. In the 'Weld M. Havin We cosset but appland most heartily and einoerely the act of conciliation which the Emperor has jest accomplished. There Is in the dames a stamp of greatness which will not be saisanderstood by anyone. It is unconditionally end without any reservation that the victims of our civil dis cords are about to leave the prisons, to bare power to return on the sell el P'ranse, and freely breathe the air of their Wive land. We eon truly declare that we are deeply affected at this decision, both by the simplicity of its form and by the extensive bearing of the act. We are thankful that no exception has ban made of a nature to lessen the satisfaction we feel at this amnesty, which is full and entire, and such se we bare so many times solicited. It makes our hearts thrill to think of the joy which mothers and children will feel at hearing of this good news. There Is no longer a single proscribed person I ♦ new era is about to open. row llbety I Some persons have mistakenly supposed that the amseety extends to the Orleans family. They, as well as the Count de Clumbord, are banished from France by acts of the legislature which cannot be set aside by en imperial decree. The Emperor, even if he would, has no lawful power to permit the exPed Bovghems of either branch to return to France. The Pays denies in a lump all the rumours circu lating in foreign journals on the subject of the Zurich Conferences, which, it alleges, are " follow ing regularly their course "—an expression which manifestly means nothing. The Messager says that Prince Poniatoweki, the senator, has left Paris for Italy, charged with a spe cial mission by the Emperor. The Bourse was heavy at the opening, but after wards improved; the Rents closed at 68fr. 90c. and 69fr., with a the of 20c. both for cub and account. Mobilier fell Bfr. 71c. The Southern Railway rose Ifr. 80c., but the other lines were not more than Ife. 2tr. higher. GARIBALDI AT FLORENCE. A letter from Florence of the ISth my. : " Genteel Garibaldi arrived here this morniog at ten. He was proceeding in a carriage, ineogsit,, to the New York Hotel, when he was recognised by a group of volunteers in the street. They immediately nut after the carriage, *boat ing, It is he! it is ha! Garibaldi for ever:' You may imagine what a oort4re was collected by the time the carriage had reached the centre of the town.

But we are happy to state that no injury of any im portance wee inflicted by the fall, and that he is now in • tar way of being, in two or three dayr, perfectly re sovered." Letters from Erzeronm report the occurrence of mother earthquake on the 14th ult., which hi. completed the entire ruin of the city. This new calamity °marred whilst the klussulman population were bney with the revel ries of the last day of the "Combat' Bairam," and, spread lag from side to aide of the doomed town, lett, it is said, scarcely a eagle house undestriled et an that e-toped the farmer convulsion.

MOM al OCCASIONAL GENOA, Arnim 15. Garibaldi arrived here on Saturday afternoon, and embarked the same evening for Leghorn. His coming was unannounced, and he intended to pus through incognito ; but he was recognised on his way to the steamer, and vehemently cheered. He goes to take the command in chief of the forces of the four confederated States of Central Italy—Parma, Modena, Tuscany, and Romagna. lam told by • friend of his that he anticipates, notwithstanding all diplomatic assurances to the contrary, that armed intervention will be had recourse to, if the moral influences now working in favour of the Dukes should fail in their object. Under such a leader let us hope the League of the Four States will be as fruitful in great results, and hold as proud a place in biota, as the League of the Twenty Cities against F rederic Barbarossa, which, crowned by . the victory of Legnano, ushered in the three centuries of Italian independence. The order of the day from Bergamo, in which the General announces his departure, is characteristically laconic. He neither says where he is going, nor what he is going to do, but simply states, " I am now obliged to retire from the service ;" and then acquainting his troops that General Pomaretto has been appointed by his Majesty to succeed him, con cludes by a recommendation of strict discipline and seal in acquiring that skill in arms which will qualify them fora distinguished post when they will have to face the enemies of their country. Not withstanding the silence discreetly maintained by the Piedmontese press, it is generally surmised that be not only has the King's consent, but his full ap probation, for the step he has taken. Victor Em manuel'a personal sentiments are no secret; in spite of all court reserve, it is well known that some very warm words escaped from the Rd Cialantuomo, when solicited by M. de Reiset to join France in the moral pressure exercised in Central Italy. A great panic has seized upon the liberal party . in Genoa. They dread that if France fails in producing the pacific re-installation of the deposed princes, she will intrigue for the election of Prince Napoleon. I was told to-day by a quondam Mszxinian that he and other political friends have been writing to warn the Tuscans of these designs, and exhort them not to be diverted from giving . their votes to Victor Emmanuel. Even should their choice not be ratified by Europe, it will remain as a solemn testimony of union among themselves, and confi dence in the King. Another notable tribute to Victor Emmanuel has just been paid by Guerszzi, the fantastic and hot headed demagogue of PHIL In a pamphlet called " Advice to the Tuscans," which appeared last week, the head of the short-lived Florentine republic re -1 commends his countrymen to annex themselves to Piedmont, and to rally round the sovereign whose word has never been belied. _ _ . A grand service was celebrated in our cathedral on Saturday, by order of the municipality, for the repose of the souls of the Italian and French soldiers who fell in the late campaign. More reverence was discernible in the crowds who thronged the magnifi cent old pile than is often seen in religions cere monies now-a-days in Italy. I could not help being struck by some of the memo- 1 rial inscriptions, which showed plainly bow little reliance is placed oa a peaceful solution of the question now pending. One acted with the prayer, " that the blood of the slain might be fruitful for Italy's entire liberation." The comment. of the Movitnento, the most popular of the Genoese papers, upon the scene are still more significant; it being but reasonable to infer, under existing restrictions, that they would not have been suffered to appear if dis approved of. " No, brave warriors," it exclaims, apostrophising the departed, " the land which you believed you had freed when you ren dered up your last sigh at Bolferino, is still enslaved . . . Venice cannot come to weep over your graves. . . 'The work you thought you had finished,it is now our duty to complete" .... and so on. What will come of all this, and what are 80,000 French to be left for on the Mincio? To set against Austria with her 200,000 troops in Ve netia this forces too small; some ay it looks mar: vallonsly well adapted fur Central Itil7.

The Syndic has begged the Genoese in a formal notice to do due honour to the august head of the French nation by a_gcneral illumination, and other marks of festivity. There is nothing festive, however, in people's hesrte, and these manifestations of rejoicing, though necessitated by prudence, promise to be very languid.

The trial of the prisoner was proceeded with this months& The prisoner was put to the bar at a few minute. after 9 o'clock. The Lotd Chief Baton resumed his summing up. Before he commenced the prisoner expressed a wish tong a few words to the court. The Lord Chief Baron laid he thought he had better do so through his counsel. The prisoner said that his lordship had spoken of him ea medical men in practice, but the Stet wee, he had retired from practice six years. The Lord Chief Baron said he knew nothing about the suttee. There was no evidence upon the point. If the prisoner bad thought It material, he could have called wit nooses to show his position. The Lord Chief Baron then addreesci the jury, and said that with reference te what the prisoner had just stated, the jury would remember that In his letter to his wife the pri soner stated that he could not yet leave town, as he was engaged in a case that required his medical aid. The learned judge then commenced reading the evidence, and said it appeared from the evidence of Mrs. Smith, that the prisoner live, at her house with a lady who passed as his wife, and who was much older than himself, and on the 9th of December he contracted another marriage with the deceased, and on the 12th he left, saying that he was going to visit a friend, and then it appeared that nothing more was beard of the prisoner and deceased until they took up their abode at Richmond. Although the first marriage appeared to have taken place so long back as the year 1828, still there could not be any reasonable doubt that the lady with whomthe pri soner was living at Ride-terrace was the same person to whom he was married in that year, and this was certainly an important ingredient in thee's,. Thellinessof the deceued stir:eared to havecommenoed very soon after the partieserrived at Richmond, and the prisoner appeared to have described it as a bilious attack, and he undoubtedly appeared desirous to have additional medical aid, and Dr. Julius was called in in oonasquenoe. His lordship then observed that at both the lodgings at Richmond the prisoner appeared to have performed all the offices that were necessary in connexion with the patient, although it was perfectly clear that the prisoner had ample Mans to have provided proper attend ants for the deemed. The jury would consider what bearing this had upon the ease. Did he refuse to have a nurse because he did not wish to have • witness in that bedroom P Was this the prisoner's object P He not only refused to have a nurse but he also wrote to the sister to prevent her from visiting the deceased. The reason the prisoner gave for not having • nurse was that he oould not afford it, when at this very time the deceased lady had an Mourne of 2201. a year, and surely some portion of that might have been upended upon the comfort of the deceased. It also appeared that no portion of any of the food that was administered to the deceased was ever allowed to remain— it was always thrown away, so that no person ever had an opportunity of tasting it. This wan one of the facts in the case, sad the jury would drew their own inference from it. It was a fact in favour of the prisoner that neither manic nor antimony wore found at the prisoner's lodging, nor on his person, but at the same time it was clear that at this time p the cue was hastening to a termination. The apprehension of the prisoner took place on the Monday, and on the fol lowing day Mies Bankee died, so that at this time if poison were the cause of death, no more of the deadly ingredient was required. His lordship then referred to the evidence of . - Was Betakes, the sister of the deceased, and to the extra ordinary expresaion of the prisoner to her that if she was quiet it would be "all right." At this interview the jury would also remember that the deceased said that some tapioca that was to the room had a nasty taste, and that when her sister offered to make her some, the prisoner said the milk had not come; and when she proposed to make some blanc-mange the prisoner also objected to this, on the ground that it might off .nd tho landlady. The prisoner then, it appeared, gave the deceased an effer vescing draught, and they would remember that he went outside the room to mix it, end that the moment the deceased took it, she was sick, and that upon his giving her some milk shortly afterwards she was again sick. After this iaterview it appeared that the prisoner had taken every means in his power to prevint the demated clog her sister, upon the mated that the dot rs had forbade it, which was not the truth. Why was not the sister informed on the 30th of April, worn she was allowed to see the deceased again, that she had made her will on that znoreine sad what could have been the object of the prisoner in wishing that the young woman, who wee • wither* to the will, should be told that it wee some Chancery paper and not that it was a will P This deoeptlon would have been practised upon her If the stralghteurward attorney bed not insisted upon her being told what she was signing. These, it sppeared to him, were very material facts in the inquiry, and the jury would form their own conclueiiits upon them. His lordship then observed upon the fact of bliss Louisa Dankes being sent sissy on the day before the death occurred, and he acid that this Let very probably was more in connexion with the will that had just before been executed, and from a fear that the diexased might at the last moment revoke it In favour of a beloved sister, than with the actual death of the deceased, but still it was a fact in the case, and it most be takes into their consideration. He then referred to the fact that alter the primmer ceased to attend upon the de ceased she did not vomit when fool was given to her, and that he mid that the potties about the deceased had taken the imp nstbility, and he should not give out snything or pay anything, although at this time he had a considerable amount of the deceased's own money at bis banker.. Hie lordship then celled the attention of the jury to the fact that the will, with the exception of the signature., wee all hr the handwriting of the trieoner, and that there was no evidence that It bed been drawn up by a barrister, as the prisoner hod represented. He had new, be believed, gone through what might be celled the personal binary of the portic. , , and the next portion at the case would be the medical testimony. His lordship then read the evidence of Drs. Julius and Bird as to the quip toms of the deceased, and to the feet that none of the medicines prescribed by them seemed to have say good effect, but, on the corittaty, the distressing and pain ful symptoms went on increasing until at last the strong conviction appeared to have forced itself upon the minds of the witnesses that the dimese under which the deceased lady wee suffering was not a natural one, and that the symptoms that were exhibited were not the result of disease but arose from the administration of Irritant pima in some Amps or other. It was true that one of the witneues who had been called foe the defence bad said that noteiths'ending all the symptoms that had been spoken to he should never hate dreamed of poirov, but was not this a most extrwadlcary statement ° Here was a &sue, accompanied by very eatzsordinary symptoms,
