"John Brows,* •• you yoleos." is signed by the makers on each packet. c o s t t sin v i eri miaoh with the gawps to prevrit matter to this par. The Herald also endorses the sentiment aI the recent egassord chimes, end truer these who ere tneired ti' make alterations will lay the case before their Norm and act on his directions. If such an appeal should result in various rites and ceremonies, who could complain, when such has always been the normal state of ritualism under Romish and protestant systems alike? The Star draws attention to the varieties of opinion which have been given by the able lawyers consulted by the English Church Union upon all but one of the ques tions respecting ritualistic practices, and adds that the longer these problems remain unsolved the more clearly will it appear that the subordination of a great religions institution to secular courts and judges is an ano maly so mischievous that everyone really solicitous for the purity and expansive growth of the church will at last strive to secure for it that freedom and independence which it unfortunately does not now possess. This boon once obtained will enable it to revise its Liturgy, to order and arrange its services, and to increase its catholicity ac cording to the free will of those who worship within its I pale and subscribe to its doctrines. strength and determination ; to saaxiikas 10;0001. a day in wages ; to interrupt business in the me tropolis and every other great town; t o occasion . for disorders which neitherthey northepoliceean be sure of wholly controlling ? Would it not have been more fair, more considerate, to have gone among them long ago, to have made friendly ac quaintance with their class, their organization, and their wishes, and then to have admitted them to the share of power they are fitted to exercise, rather than to say no to every demand until the time comes when they are obliged to show that you dare no longer use such a word ? And if still any uncertainty remains, ought not at least every facility to be taken for dissipating it--ought not meetings to be invited rather than discouraged — ought they not to be attended by all honest men of every class who desire to know each other — ought they not to be made so easy that there shall be no chance of disturbance, and as little as possible dislocation of other hominess But to the hypocritical section of the anti- Reformers we must put other suggestions, and rather expose their policy than hope to change it. What is their object in seeking to attenuate the significance of what has been already done? What other effect can it have than to make neces sary another demonstration, larger, more em phatic, more imperative than the last ? And what, in the end, can be the result, but to excite and perpetuate the angry class hatreds at which they are ever professing to tremble t And how much more is to be needed ere we come up to the point that will satisfy the critical intellects that despise last Monday's work ? They spent days before in deprecating the assembling of 200,000 men as perilous to London, to the nation itself, and they now pretend that, because the 200,000 did not all assemble, the affair means nothing. They try to persuade us that the march of a superb army of workers of four miles long through the streets of the metropolis is a thing that needs no regard ; that the demand made by 25,000 able-bodied, and as yet orderly men, for what they deem rights they are excluded from unjustly, is a matter to be disregarded, because there may be others who did not assemble at that moment to join in the de mand. What is this but to tell them that they shall not have by orderly means what they claim ; that they are so weak that they may still be mocked ; that they must cry more loudly and more fiercely, if they mean to be heard f This is the selfish, vain, impotent dis honesty of last session reproducing itself, only in times that are grown, thanks to its temporary success, tenfold more serious. It flung out the Bill because it pretended the people did not want it ;it shut the people out from Hyde-park when they desired to express their wishes ; it sent them to Fulham when they sought for a meeting place in London ;it still asserts they are but half hearted because only 25,000 went. And it will be this dull denial of plain facts, this stupid effort to resist seeing, which will make needful something that will take no denial and cannot be overlooked. If when Parliament meets, its members have to pass through an assemblage of 60,000 fixedand determined faces—if Hyde-park be taken for a place of meeting—if there be alarm and disturbance which no precaution can obviate, the fault will be with those who are telling us now that what has been done as yet is too little to be of effect. frite Orpreoo. - Advedleemento Intoned for " The Uprose: London Ivatiing Paper, must be at the Office, 10„ Douveatedreet, by Two o'clock on the day of publication.

LONDON, TBUBSDAY, DECEMBER 6. nom are two classes of the opponents of the late Reform Bill between whom we have always drawn a distinction, and the recent Reform de monstrations are daily making that distinction more broad and clear. There are those who are honestly timid, constitutionally fearful of the future, alarmed at the unknown. Such as these are not bigoted, but nervous—not jealous, but apprehensive—not selfish, but only ignorant. They have no dislike of the working man ; they have no scorn fur his want of external polish—no sneer for his enthusiasm, even when it passes the bounds of strict taste. Not only so, but they have no mistreat of him, so far as they know him. And consequently they speak with perfect good faith when they say they would wish to see the beat of the working classes admitted to the suffrage. But their error—and they must pardon us if we also say their fault—lies in that they do not know, and they have never tried to know, how very large is the number who come in all essential qualities up to that standard. They have come in contact with their own gardeners or bailiffs, with a few superior and fairly educated farm labourers—with, perhaps, the village carpenter or blacksmith, or with one or two well-conducted, steady artisans of the nearest country town. With the instinct of Englishmen they have recognised in these men Englishmen like themselves, and with the frank ness of Englishmen they have felt and acknow ledged that there was no reason for the political gulf which separates them. But they have not recognised that those with whom they thus came in personal and pleasant contact are but average types of hundreds of thousands as honest, as respectful of all that deserves respect, as intelligent, as liberal-minded, as open to reason and sensible in judgment as the few they have met. And so they have, out of a mere vague terror of what they did nut know, refused the extension of the franchise which has been asked. But their terror has not made them dishonest. Therefore, when they saw thirty thousand of the working men of London pass I under their eyes, showing in countenance and ' bearing that they too were intelligent, orderly, rational men, capable alike of understanding and of reasoning, no more has been needed to effect a conversion. And we cannot doubt that there is many a peer, many a squire in the Tory ranks, who thinks now very differently from what he did on Monday moniing last—who is convinced, not against his will but greatly to his own com fort, and who, if but party " honour" will permit, will show by his votes th it ho is no longer afraid of his countrymen—now that he has seen them. But there is another and a very different class, who sin not without light but against the light, who are not English enough to respect English worth even when they see it, to whom success in life is the sole god, and poverty the one unpardonable crime that includes all. These are the men, re cruited alike from both sides of the House, who flung out the Bill of last session—not with honest opposition, but by resort to every subterfuge of hypocrisy. They are the men who find one p er i o d too excited for discussing the subject, another showing by its tranquillity that the matter is not cared for by anybody ; who object to a partial measure that it is incomplete--to a complete mea sure that it is too large ; who move amend ments of detail that involve destruction of prin ciple ; who would add provisoes that would make the enactment unworkable ; who call upon one Ministry to stay in though defeated, on another to announce no policy, and endanger themselves by no measure. And what is thus done in Par liament is backed and commended by a portion of the press, which brings a scandal on its name, which with poor wit and covert insolence sneers at the manliness it cannot understand, and labours to preserve the social privileges into which it has crept by flattering the mean minds of its patrons with exhibition of a snobbishness greater than their own. To all this party and its abettors the demonstration of Monday is a thing to be turned into ridicule and contempt. The smallness of the numbers, the strong language of the speeches, the mud, the rain, the pickpockets, are the materials for small gibes, and the whole occasion is improved as a text for assuring us, first, that the working men do not want the suffrage, and next, that they shall not have it if they do. We have a few words of counsel to address to each of the classes we have described. To the first we would say, with all respect—Rave you treated, are you now treating, the men you have found to be so worthy with common fairness ? Yon assumes them to be dangerous, why did you not go among them before now and examine if they really were dangerous ? You assumed that they were indifferent to Reform, why did you compel them to take such a way of exhibiting their earnestness You are ready now to admit that they are worthy ; but is it right, is it con stitutional, to fail through mere ignorance to re cognise that fact, and through mere carelessness to act upon it, until you have compelled them to resort to " pressure from without," to put their trades societies to uses they were not meant for, and ought not to need to be employed in ; to assemble in great . organized masses to prove their THE EXTRESS, THURSDAY EVENING, DECEMBER 6, ~ LATEST 11TELLIGENI ;t (ampres's Txmasaira.) ; PRUSSIA.

The article concludes as follows : "We learn upon most reliable authority that the relations between Russia and Austria are moat satisfactory, and that nothing whatever has taken place calculated to disturb them in any way. No concentration of troops has been made by Austria and Galicia, nor is such a measure contemplated. Russia, on the other hand, has not effected any military movement out of the ordinary course, or of a nature to give rise to any apprehension." SPAIN. MADRID, DE. 6.

Two clerks in the Receiver-General's office, named Magnin and Dumont, whose salaries were only I,Boofr. a year each, contrived to misappropriate the above large sum, part of which was obtained by substi tuting one city of Paris bond for another which had gained a lottery prize of 10,000 fr. Magnin, presumed to be the most culpable of the two, has absconded. Dumont, to whom " extenuating cir cumstances " were accorded, was sentenced to five years' imprisonment. In the lastlist of bankrupts is Count de Monier, director of the Comptoir-d'Abyssinie, formerly living in the Place Pentagonale, and now without any known residence, who about a year or eighteen months since was organising an expedition into Eastern Africa.

MISCELLANEOUS FACTS. It appears from the recent telegram that Smut*, the American, who is accused of complicity in the 'awake lion of the late Mr. Lincoln, was seized by the Egyptian authorities at Alexandria, though our government at Malta declined to act, on the ground that the authority was insufficient. The Times is persuaded, however, that the course pursued at Malta was not due to any negligence or indifference, but to the absence of the con ditions required by law for the arrest and extraditianof the fugitive. It then goes on to assert that political assassins have no claim under our law to protection. With us murder is murder, and cannot be mitigated by any ex planatory epithet. The Post represents the Fenian scheme as contemplating the destruction of every person of any note in the island, whether lay or clerical, of every sect without distinction, and the distribution of the land among the leaders of the movement and the peasantry. The present government, however, is fully alive to what is required. Wherever conspirators abound, informers are not wanting ; and no doubt the Irish government are in the possession of every requisite information. The Daily News represents the appointment of a com mission to " consider the expediency" of the simplification of the law as trifling with a grave and momentous ques tion. The law of France has been reduced to • cods, since sanctioned by the adoption of other European States, and the State of New York has reduced the English common law to the like brief and practicable form ; and two years ago a preliminary grant of 5,0001. wLa made by our parliament to commence the work. It is impossible not to see in this miserable paltering, evi dence of reluctance to do the work at all. And the com position of the royal commission confirms the belief. No name of eminence and freedom from bias appears in the list, except that of Mr. Lowe. The Times reminds its readers that within five days from the present date not a single man belonging to the French imperial army will be left in the pontifical dominions, and the Pope, to be saved from the brigands, must be fain to snatch even at Italy. Hie first interview with the delegate of the Italian government must tacitly or avowedly settle the dispute about the Legations, the Marches, and Umbria. The Pope accepts 18,000,000 fr. for the arrears of interest of the debt of those provinces. The government that takes upon itself the liabilities has clearly made out its titles to the assets, and then a pontifical state of 800,000 souls is an utter absurdity. The revenue from the un- tilled Cismpagna could barely supply the bread and beef for the hundred Swiss Guards at the Vatican. We learn from the Telegraph that there is reason to believe that the storm which the Council of University College have raised by refusing to place Professor Mar tineau in the chair of Mental Philosophy wall speedily end in the overruling of the vote. The real friends of the in stitution are using every effort to free it from the re. preach ; three-fourths of the fellows are on the side of Mr. Mai tineau ; a requisition, a th the proper number of sig. natures, has been got up to bring the decision under the notice of the Court of Proprietors; and if the movement be temperately managed, the college wall soon ise above the disgrace under which it 113 W rests.

EXPRESS FROM PARIS. TRIAL AND CONVICTION OF LAMM,ANDE. (FROM OOR OWN COBRISPONDENT.) PARIS, WIDNISDAY EVININO. Lamirandc, when interrogated by the President, confessed that he had robbed the Bank of France of the full sum of 704,000 fr., which is laid to his account in the indictment ; that the abstractions were going on for nearly three years, and that every day during that period he submitted to M. Bailly, the manager of the Poitiers branch bank, a falsified balance, but for which his frauds must have been inevitably discovered as fast as they were committed. His system was to take rou/eaux of gold and replace the coin by silver pieces in bags, which were supposed to contain gold. He took a sort of credit to himself for not having taken care to make the bags of proper weight, had he done which he said his defalcations might have gone on for ever undiscovered. Ho expressed contrition for his crime, and especially because it tended to throw suspicion upon his respectable chief, M. Hailly. The examination relative to what he had dune with the stolen money is ex- tremely curious and interesting. I subjoin a translation from an authentic report : Q. I am now going to ask you a question which has not yet been put to you because you tied from the justice of your country. What did you do with the money? — A. In the first place I am quite sure that I gave as much as 7,000 fr. to an English interpreter, who, in return, informed against me. Then I am persuaded that I was robbed of three seer-ities of the value of 10,0001 r. at London and Liverpool. I was weary, I bad passed several nights, as many as nine, I think, at play—for play has' been my ruin. Further, I trusted a sum of 6,000 fr. to a Canadian who was going home. Q. That money has been restored'—A. Yes; it has been given to the Bank. Q. What next'—A. I spent a great deal of money at New York—somewhere about I,soufr. Q. But you must recollect that you have upwards of 700,000 fr. to account for.—A. I cannot tell what haa be come of the money. At New York I had to do with some advocates, to whom I entrusted 191,000 fr. I agreed with them that if I did not resist the extradition they would send lio,ooofr. for me to make restitution of in France. Q. Bo that they kept rd,ooofr. for themselves. Did they give up this money ?—A. The police agent told me that when he threatened them with a prosecution they sent the Bank of France 2.1,000 fr. _ . Q. You yourself have given back something'—A. Yes, the amount stated in my memorandum. _ _ . ....- -- . Q. Go on with your narrative.—A. Before leaving France I gave money to two women. Q. You are yet a long way off from the eum total.—A. Ah, but the money I gave to my American advocates. M. Lachaud—Oh, they are no advocates. The President—Yes, they are New York advocates. M. Lachaud—No, they are not worthy of such a title. They are thieves' accomplices. Q. Well, now tell us what you have done with the cur plus!—A. I cannot tell without doing an injury to inno cent persons. Q. I cannot understand that. 'Von must answer. It has nothing to do with the question at u.sue, but it is a question of morality.—A. I cannot tell. Q. You refuse ?—A. Yes. M. Lachaud—Will the court allow me to speak! I have a revelation to make. The President—You can make your revelation in your speech, M. Lachaud, but we cannot again do what we did yesterday, and ask the prisoner continually whether he agrees with his counsel. Lamirande—l refuse to answer. After some further questions about the debts which the prisoner had paid, a highly sensational scene occurred. M. Lachaud after rising several times to speak, and being told as often by thepresident that he must wait till the examination was closed, exclaimed, stretching out in his hand a bag of money—l have more than a revelation to make. I have a fact of importance to the trial which must now be made known. My client tells you that he cannot say what has become of some of the stolen money for fear of injuring innocent parties. I have here in this bag 110,200 fr., of which I now make restitution in Lamirande's name, and I now hand the money over to the counsel for the Lank of France. . M. Bourrean (the counsel)—l do not feel authorised to receive it ; but here is an officer of the Rank of France who will take the money and give a receipt. M. lAc.haud—We do not want any receipt. Here is a restitution. (Great sensation in court.) Q. You have still, after all the explanations you have given, 280,000 fr. to account for. Your counsel has just given up 110,000 fr. ; what has become of the sum re maining!—A. I cannot say. Q. I cannot understand what interest you can have in making this restitution by your counsel instead of frankly admitting that you had the money in answer to the ques tion I had just now put to you.

The Times returns to a subject which is now very frequently discussed in its columns, namely, the po litical action which Mr. Bright is desirous to encourage amongst the trades' union societies. Knowing, it says, what these trades' unions ars, fullyawareof their excesses, and justifying them by the most notorious, most repro bated, and now obsolete examples, he proposes to place not only capital and the employer, but the constitution and the whole country, under their capricious laws and iron rule. It is the one consummation which he would wish to see before he dies. What next he heeds not. The ireeting at St. James' hall, not differing outwardly from the average political gatherings, was marked, never theless, the Daily IV, ws observes,by some curious features. It must have been strange to Mr. Bright to be welcamed as a leader by societies whose views on the subjects which engage their ordinary action are diametrically opposed to his ; and if it is honor-able in a political leader to contend for the concession to others of rights and liberties which he knows will be used, in some oases, against his own class and opinions, this praise be longs to Mr. Bright, and may fairly qualify much of the censure not always unfairly bestowed upon him. Notwithstanding his eagerness for the support of the working classes in his agitation for reform, be has never courted their good-will by any concession to what he deems their economical fallacies, or by any avoidance of plain-speaking thereon. Whatever else this may be, at least it is not demagog/.

According to the Moniteur de la Meurthe, the use of horseflesh as food is making progress at Nancy. M. I'ineau, to whom the Acclimatisation Society ha■ just conceded the enterprise, has already a dozen horses in his stables fattening. At present the average consumption is two animals per week. The farmers are beginning to place themselves in communication with M. Pineau to sell him such horses as they are obliged to get rid of from accidents. The price of the animals under these circum stances varies from 60fr. to 80fr. M. Jules Fevre, famous for his eloquence iu the Legislative Chamber, and at the bar, of which he is the pride and ornament, has just published in one volume hii inaugural discourses as head of the Order of Advocates (Ditcmnier), his memorable pleading for Orsini, and four speeches which he pronounced in the Chamber last ses sion. "He is one of the few public speakers," writes the Paris correspondent of the Times, " whose orations might be printed off-hand without altering a phrase, a word, or even the punctuation." THE STUDY OF GRAMMAR.—A FRENCH VIEW.— Duruy, Minister of Public Instruction, has addressed a circular to the rectors of colleges, recommending them not to torment their pupils by forcing them to commit to memory the abstract rules of grammar. He says : " Children of 10 or 11 speak of transitive and intransitive verbs, simple and complex attributes, incidental, expLina tory, or determinatory propositions, circumstantial complements, eta. One must have no notion of children's minds, which are averse to abstrac tions and generalities, to believe that they can com prehend such expressions , which you and I h.ive long since forgotten—it is simply an effort of memory, and not of the slightest use. If the serious study of grammar is of the utmost importance, if by an analysis of language we are led to discover certain laws of mind, if by a comparison of the construction of grammars among themselves we are led to find the affiliation of nations and races ; if, in short, this study constitutes for a mind, already mature, one of the most fruitful applications of philoso phy enlightened by history, it must be admitted that, for children, it is only too often an object of terror. Viva rare lessons ought to be substituted: grammar must be reduced to a few short and simple definitions, to a small number of fundamental rules, which can be illustrated by examples : it will also be necessary, in proportion as the intelligence of the child becomes developed to place be fore it extracts from our best literary works , to make it comprehend the different shades of meaning expressed by the worts, the connexion and sequence of ideas, and, at a la'er period, the inversions and even the bold peculiarities of genius." THE LAST DAYS WORSE THAN THE FIRST. —The Mexican republicans seem determined to make the last days of the French invaders as unhappy as possible. They are making war on the enemy of their country and on the various military detachments stationed at different point., with an energy which has not been equalled since the fall of Puebla. New leaders are appearing in all directions, and each of them seems to find a band of followers, with horse and carbine, all ready for the fight. If the imp,- rialiat pretensions over Mexico were absolutely, finally, and in all respects abandoned, we could wish that the republicans would let the French alone while they are hastening forward their preparations to embark. But they still put forward some claims to authority, such as that relating to the collection of customs at Mexican ports, while Maximilian has not yet doffed the purple or re signed the sceptre. The warlike activity of the repub limns will help to hasten the relinquishment of all foreign pretensions in Mexico by showing both Napoleon and Maximilian the impossibility of exercising any sort of power against the will of such • people. It would be hard now to exaggerate the disgust with which the " regenerators of Mexico " will leave that irredeemable country.—New York ruses. 8.., l A.
