Tue stataumut that the French Government has proposed to that of England the simultaneous din- armament of the two countries is said to have pro duced "a favourable impression" on the Stock Exchange. The shrewd frequenters of that my.- tenons resort do not require an impossible accuracy n all the reports of which they obey the influence. Rumours, even when untrue, reflect the hue of events, and are often real signs of the times. Very recently the announcement referred to would have been impossible, from its utter want of harmony with all that men on both sided of the Channel were disposed to see in one anothees attitude and demeanour. Thie, we conceive, is the ex planation of the favourable reception given to • statement the evidence of which real not bear a moment's close examination. Without any nice inquiry into the matter, men at once ap prove the friendly disposition which such • proposal would augur, the circumstances which wuald make it admissible being regarded se of seectedary importance. Bat the mood and temper of the day is one thing, and the permanent necomitime of the country are another.

At the time of the Conspiracy Bill, the fast that the addresser which appeared in the 1110mitaw against this cosatry were signed by Colonels in the French Army woe se slight aggravation of the it salt, sad it is Ise probable that the position of Uk AICIIIIALD ALIIPON sea magistrate, and of Mr. Ou ram al the private secretary of Lord ELGIN, is Selig relation with the French officers in Mai Rey pewees a like significance abroad. The idea that the esentry is not absolutely were frees the danger Cl foreign invasion has at length tuned a hold on the public; probably enough as scones Parliament meets Ministers will be closely questioned OD the subject. It is no part of our duty to deny that such dangers really exist; and, indeed, the nun sees peblicatiots by distinguished military and naval sea doily ninon, and the rapidity with which the sesesseive editions are sold, amply attest the popu lar Wing. Nor, probably, is the rumour ground less that the Government is not without anxiety en this all-absorbing subject. It must be ma hard, however, that if any serious dangers are apprehended, the means of meeting them, and the plan according to which these means are to be used, are still undetermined. It is said, indeed, that the Defines Commission hoe well sigh completed its labours, and that besides ream mending the fortification of our nasal erwmais, one half of the establishment at Woolwich is to be rewind to Weedon. But beyond this the only step which is being taken is the sepaise tisa of the Volunteer Riflemen. Build as many forte as yon ssees, the grand defect to be supplied will still be the me. When the time for action comes, if it WSW des' oome, the one demand will be Now, bow sissy Rifle Volunteers are there ! Windy writers tell us that there will be no diffi culty in getting 160,000. But it is a singular fact that amongst all the enthuaiestic speeches at public meetings throughout the country no one has ventured to give any estimate of the numbers actually 'strolled. The numbers must surely be known to somebody. There is the Monthly Army List, and a new weekly journal which has been just started to collect specific information on the subject. But sin primly enough no list in any degree approaching accuracy is to be met with. After the most careful inquiries we find it d'ffictilt to believe that the whole number of the volunteers actually enrolled amounts to thirty thousand men. If it does, we should only be too glad to acknowledge our mistake. And in a matter so vitally important it seems only fair to the public that the War-office should lose no time in stating the precise number of enrolled volunteers, and their condition as to discipline. Our readers know well enough that these remarks are not in tended to disparage the value of the volunteer force. There can be no doubt that if sufficient in numbers sod properly organised it may do excellent service. The danger is that its numbers may be exaggerated, and that efforts to increase them may be relaxed. Besides, it is notorious that the Horse Guards are by • no means favourable to volunteer corps; for if found effective, the result would infallibly be a stern deter mination on the pert of the public not to increase the standing army, and thus to curtail the means of military patronage and corruption. The numbers of the new Riflemen ought at once to be made public, in order that if Me than they should be, the obstruct • tions, possibly attributable to the jealousy of the Horse Guards, may be at once removed. But there is one special danger incident to them Rifle Volunteers which is every day becoming more ' serious. As the body has been called into existence for the g I defence of the country, it seems natural to suppose that the right of admission to each corps should be as general se possible. If social distinctions are anywhere out of place, it mast be in ' organising a system of national defence. The noble . man ought to be found aide by side with the corn ; smear, the shopman side by aide with his rich cue , tomer, the country gentleman side by side with his tenant, the farmer aide by side with his labourer. Bat this is not so. In the first place, it seems that the movement is principally confined to what may be called the upper and middle classes. The " comma people "—the labourers, the mechanics, the wortiag men—are little thought of in the matter. And yet those are the thews and sinews of the country. These are the men macro whom England must depend be any cam of slimes invasion. It is all very well for some two or three hundred young gentlemen to saunter down to Westminster-hall or the Wellington Barrack., to meet their friends and practise the rifle drill. The exercise is capital for health, will marvellowily improve their appetites, and add to their appreciation of the club chef art• A drill club of this eat may be a pleasant thing. But it is neither national nor patriotic. In the matter of national defence a man's position in society mast be simply igaored. liven in 184 a, what ami called " gentlemen "enjoyed no distinction over their fellow-citisens. Loom NAPOLEON himself walked side by side with his hatter. So it must be now. There mum be no melesive corps. To some, iodised, this defect id considered a posi tive merit. If, it is said, a somber of young noble man, ea yeeing doctors, or young barristers, choose to organise themselves into an exclusive corps, and determine to exclude any labourer, or tailor, or even attorney, it matters not to the country. You have a ►igh-spirited body of young gentlemen—and what mere I. wasted? Besides, it is quietly hinted that one of the great advantages of this rifle move ment is, that arms are pat into " the right hands." In this way the persons of wealth and position are the only clam trained to the use of the rifle, and there fen is any civil commotion the upper clam would have the advantage over the lower class• These are surely dangerous doctrines. It is idle to expect that the spirit of exclusion which dictates the for onstienof exclasivecorps will not develop itself in other flerms. Insolent pretensions are apt to accompany wealth and high position. Nor is it probable that in the character of a young and exclusive Rifleman time inalitiee will be wanting. But if the idea boom= immoral that by this Rine orgaairation one elms of the popslatioa will become armed whilst the ether Mose remains seamed, the national sharacter of the meessment will be at once lest. It is no dank a gems ealnnesy to my that any of the people of this country are unfit to be trusted with arms, or that they will me them except against the common enemy. Bat it is a ellumny which is not unknown amongst persons in the upper racks, and the danger is that the exclusive orgasisation of some of the Rills carpe may lend it tame semblance of truth. Certainly nothing can be more perilous or more shortsighted than to convert a scheme of national defence into a means of waxing one class of the population against another, to practically confine the defence of the country to the upper ranks, by excluding from the volunteer ranks the great mass of the English people. Any plan more fraught with danger it is impossible to conceive, and there fore it behoves the Holm Betatrser to look to this matter in time, for it is an evil not easy to be remedied. lea Connaltss.—At the end of another week, notwithstanding the numerous announcements of the foreign prase, no formal invitation to join a European Cantle has reached our government.

EXPRESS FROM PARIS. t7ioll OWIL OWN PARIS, FRLDAT ERNINO. I am even more inclined than I was yesterday to think that the story of Lord Cowley having boen sent to England by Louis Napkon to propose a general disarmament is nothing but a mystification. It struck me on the first blush that such a proposi tion, under existing circumstanced, would be very inapplicable to the exigencies of the time. Bat it now appears, although all the French papers (morn ing sad evening) are still under a mistaken impres sion, that the statement which the telegram brought here last night as being vouched for by the Timer, rests upon no other authority than a telegram from Brussels, published in a second edition of that journal. The " sure source," seems to be nothing better than the Belgian papers of yesterday, which themselves do not venture to speak on the subject in a very positive manner. There is nothing like official confirmation of the improbable rumour here. The Patrie, as if suspecting a eadord, says nothing about it, and the Pays gives the news entirely on the strength of statements in the Times and Evening Sine, and under " all reserve." Nothing new about the congress, except confirm ation from various sources of the fact of objections being made by Austria on the ground of the Buon compagni regency. All the clerical and absolutist journals of Paris and the departments publish simultaneously the following sinister paragraph, which I consider of great importance, because it coincides too strongly with the instructions which it was rumoured some time since Marshal Valliant had received, and with the unwavering adhesion of the French government is all official acts to the dissatrons preliminaries of Valor:sacs : There is much talk of a tweet report by Marshal Valliant en the situation of Central Italy. The marshal enters into long details to prove that the revolutionary governments in Italy era only supported by a miserable nein« ity. The boomese majority of the people, he a.y., desire the execution of the treaties of Zurich, and the return of the princes ; bat this majority sot being accustomed to struggle wine arbitrary power, is paralysed by the violence of men capable of any erases to maintain their usurpation. Marshal Veil kat proposes, it is said, to take use of two tiouresa, either to employ our army to combat the revolution in 1869 as it did in 1849, in order to satisfy the wishes and Interests of the met majority of Italians se well se the tree polio, of France and Europe; or if the first course (to which the illustrious marshal personally inclines) should not be fol lowed, to withdraw the army from Italy altogether, is order that It may tempo the pawn of the revolutionary pops gandiarn to which it is sow subjected. I know not to which of these two mamas the French government will adhere. Without giving anything like implicit confidence to the above statement, which comes from the enemy's camp, and may be greatly exaggerated or ingeniously distorted from the truth, I repeat that it ought not to be disregarded; and I think it well to remind you that I wrote some time lift° that all Marshal Vaillant's letters to the Minister at War betrayed a marvellous itching to "preserve order" in Central Italy. The Bourse has again experienced a slight im provement. The Route, after having been quoted at 70fr. 26c., closed at 70fr. 20c. both for cash and account, with a rise of 10c. and be.

The receipts for the week are very good, both as compared with last week and with the corresponding week last year. M. Emile de Girardio, his publisher (M. Michel Levy), and his printer (M. Serriere) have been sum ! moned to appear to-morrow before M. Dobigne, judge of instruction, to be interrogated touching the pamphlet " L'Etapereur Napoleon 111. et l'Europs,' which, as you are aware, was seized. One of the offence, charged is that of " insulting the Emperor of the French." The mail from Martinique and Guadeloupe bring s the news that the Guadaloupe, a newspaper of Buse- Terre, had been suspended for two months by the governor, for having published an article which, says the governor in his decree, " puts in doubt the solicitude of the Emperor's government sa regards the colonies, and tries to bring the authorities into disrepute." It appears that the Chapoys Montlaville case ended in a compromise, to the great disappointment of the crowded audieLce alluded to in yesterday's short telegram from Macon. It may be remem bered that some time ago—in consequence of dissen sions between M. and Madame Chirpily. de Mont laville—the husband's father, the Baron Chapnys de Montlaville, who is a senator, forcibly carried off their child from the mother, and that she sub►equently obtained forcible posses sion of it, both which acts created considerable sen sation. The lady was a daughter of M. Budd., a wealthy apothecary of St. Etienne, who had given bar • marriage portion of 600,000 francs. He is a very popular man in the town, when he habitually distributed medicines to the poor gratuitously to the value of 12,000 fr. or 16,000 fr. • year, hence an eiseste, or ssomethieg nearly approaching to one, which occurred at St. Etienne when the news was first bruited of M. Senator de Montlavilles violent proceedings. M. Jules Fevre sad M. Mathieu, of the Paris bar, went to Macon to plead the case, but before it was called on rumours of important telegrams having been received from Paris, caused it to be supposed that a paternal government had interfered at the lest moment to effect a compromise and prevent painful disclosures touching the family of a senator. The respective counsel and the advocate-general muttered a few words indicating the terms of an arrangement, and the court pronounced a separation of the couple both as regards person and property, and decreed that the child shall live six months with the father and six months with the mother until be attains his ninth year. What is to become of him afterwards the judgment does not state. General de Martireprey, whose arrival at Mar seilles was announced by telegraph, did not come on to Pane.

The vote of the Central Italian Assemblies, which I believe I ought to attribute to the affection of the Italians for the King rather than for my person, has been most agreeable to my heart, although it is superior to my deserts. Believe, then, that the sacrifice I make in abstaining from per. sonally and instantly accomplishing the honourable mission that has been entrusted to me is very great. I should have been happy in proving to the Italians all the affection, as well as the sincere gratitude, I entertain for them ; but this could not be done, not withstanding my wish. " I have the satisfaction to believe that, as soon as the meeting of the European Congress takes place, this sacrifice will be of greater avail to the Italians than my presence could be, since it is destined to remove all suspicion. " I comprehend all the difficulty of the situation of Central Italy, but one must not lose courage. On the contrary, it is necessary to redouble one's energy, to be united and armed, whilst maintaining that perfect order which does the Italian. so much hamar at this critical period, and which, while claiming the admiration of the whole world, will doubtless be their most powerful auxiliary in the Congress. "My answer to the Commendatore Mioghetti and to Cavaliers Peruzzi most, I trust, have treasured the Italians. I have done all I could, and you know that I am frank and loyal, and that I desire nothing in the world but to see Italy happy. " EUGENIC Or 81TOT." PIEDMONT.

Pero, 12th November, ISM. " Several of the Parted= and provincial journela have for some time past brought to the diecaselon of Eughah politico anersgaemted tone which la to be regretted. • Sorb polemics have not only the Inconvenience of dis quieting [commercial] interests and exciting (public) opinica„ but further contribute to aggravate that distrust and hoati lity, of which certain public organs in England are the tai -1 paseleeed partisans. " When times attacks appear in journals which habitually defend the Imperial policy, they then assume • still graver character, because, in the eyes of foreigners, the government Ia held reepoissible. " It is therefore essential that all papers upon which the influence of the administration can be brought to bear should be invited to observe greater circumspection. Without doubt, it is useful to refute errors, and protest egainat calumnies and injustice; but, whilst energetically defending the rights and intenttons of Franoe, which is the duty of the press, it is easy to respect the susceptibilities of a great statism, and protect the friendly relations of the two countries. It is in unison with ' these views, which reconcile the dignity of the Imperial policy with the interests of our alliances sad the maintenance of peace, that the Prefects should Inflame* the press sad public *pinks. •• Foe the moment, Messieurs the Prefects will limit them selves to confidentially presenting recommendations to those newspapers on whose loyalty end discretion they can sod mould abstain trout interfering with opposition journals, save when by the exaggeration of their tono they places themselves in open opposition to the views of the govern ment, in which case they should be immediately reported to the Misstate, of the Interior."
