IT is natural that the tendency towards a closer union between Russia, Austria, and Prussia, which has become manifest in proportion as the two German Powers, receding from the more humane maxima of government which they seemed of late years to have adopted, entered upon a path of violence and fraud, should produce • profound impression in Perla, where the combination is naturally regarded as a challenge to the EIIPZEOL Only • few years ago it was the proud boast of NA• routos lIL that he bad for ever broken the autho rity of traditions which date from tte overthrow of his uncle and the misfortunesof France. Englishmen sympathised in his satisfaction, for they saw in the cessation of that malign and terrible influence which, until 1855, barbaric Russia bad exercised over Europe, a pledge of the early triumph of liberal ideas and the establishment of free institutions in State after State which had long been held in' bondage by Russian aid. The pismire with which we observed these changes measures the regret we feel as we see them suspended sod placed in peril. Still we cannot make ourselves responsible either for the liberty or the pesos of Europe. If the tide of European action has set in, and there is no one to stem it, there is undoubtedly a cause. An unfaithfulness to the principles of liberty and national indepen dence on the part of those of whom better things might have been hoped, first tempted the three Powers to resume their old practices, and combine for common action. Had the Germans, whom the successful war in the Crimea delivered from the overshadowing power of Russia, shown that they really valued free government, instead of going mad over what is called the principle of nationality —a principle which in the present state of Europe is as likely to prove narrow and retrograde as to conduce to freedom—they would not now be ex posed to • combination which threatens their liberty. On the other hand, we are compelled to observe that, bad the French Government re mained true to the earlier principles which the Exrsaoa proclaimed, the alliance between the two countries would not have been reduced to that feeble and attenuated condition in which this unhappy Danish business overtook it. We have no desire to dwell with fruitless iteration on • state of things which is only too well known. The causes which led to the par tial estrangement of the two countries were suffi ciently stated during the di melons of November last, and preceded the refusal of England to take part in • proposed Congress. Even now few Eng lishmen understand the policy of France in this Danish difficulty. They give the Exrutoa every credit for his frankness towards the British Govern ment in the clear and timely statement of his intentions, and this is a great merit, bu. they des pair of understanding how it is that the unjust dismemberment of a kingdom and the most cruel oppression of a brave people can be matters of in difference to a monarch whose sentimental and ideal aspirations have given him a peculiar name and place among the potentates of Europe. Like the Pay; we desire a frank and sincere alliance with France, but to be profitable it must be based on a deliberate and discerning estimate of the charac ter of the two countries, and of the objects and interests which they can henceforth pursue in common. Is there or is there not * R aid Tay Dope* went at the Board of Trade f Mr. Mu.arta Gissex seems to admit that something of the sort is in existence ; but he takes care to warn the House that it has no executive power what ever, and that its business (if it has any) con sista in not advising Parliament to legislate for the safety of the public. Will no independent member undertake the duty of bringing in a short and simple bill compelling railway companies on and after a certain date, say January 1, 1865, to alter and adapt the construction of their carriages so that from one end of every train to the other there shall be—as we have already suggested—a constant patrol of the guards, and a constant super vision and attendance upon each carriage, if re quired, and a constant and uninterrupted communi cation between one compartment and another t We in England are apt to be proud of doing nothing like the rest of the world, and it is remarked by railway travellers abroad that the nearer they approach to England the journey becomes less comfortable, if not less safe. Letters which our contemporaries and ourselves have published since the monstrous tragedy at Bow, insist on the fact that not only in America, but in Europe, the most obvious and simple precautions are taken against these deplorable outrages ; precautions perfectly compatible with due precision and punc tuality in the stated arrivals and departures of the trains. No doubt railway travelling is in its in fancy in ►ll that relates to the comfort and con venience of pssaengers. Fifty years hence our present mode of railway travelling will certainly be described as barbarous. For barbarous the age might well be c►lled when people travelled four and five hundred miles under lock and key, and were only let oat every hundred miles or so to stretch their legs and swallow a hasty morsel of miscalled " refreshment " at a tenth-rate luncheon bar, and when a traveller hesitated to sit down alone with whet might possibly thieves, or a professional miscreant waiting far the comraiting a criminal assault woman out of reach of midst of a crowd. Fifty years hence a train to Holyhead or Aberdeen will be a travelling hotel, with all an hotel's aooommodation for sleep and refreshment ; and it will be at least as safe to travel from Kensington to Farringdon-street, or from Hackney to Fenchurch-street, by railway, as it is now by omnibus. But surely even now there is something to be done. We are inclined to think that the objection, which hes been well con sidered in France, to a belt or other apparatus attached to each carriage, and available for any passenger to communicate with the guard et may moment, is not unfounded. Unquestionably it would be liable to abuse, and it would be no more available in all cases against assault than bolts and bars are available against housebreakers. But there really can be no other difficulty than the expense (which is the affair of the companies, Not of their passengers, and which would certs+aty net be ruinous), in the reconstruction of our railway trains on some sy.t..ru of uninterrupted and incessant communication between all comport meats of the train, and between the guards of the train and all the passengers By this system, and this system only, such outrages and such panics as we are now enduring can be at once and absolutely prevented, and railway tra vellers, whether to the far North, Kest, South, lor West, or round the outskirts of London, be enabled to take their seats in the confident assurance that though they may be massacred wholesale by a bewildered pointaman or a sleepy signalman, they cannot be maltreated or murdered in detail. This will be a great gain. We are enabled to state that a proposal bee been sent by the Danish government to the Allied Powers for a suspension of hostilities and the opening of negotiations for a peace.

LA The ministerial journal of Berlin, the Northern Gazette, is delighted at the change of government at Copenhagen. "The parliamentary Britain at Copenhagen," says the Gazette, " is bankrupt ; the ministry has not fallen through • vote of the par liament ;it has retired at the royal desire. The King takes in hand the reins of power to give the state policy a direction altogether different from I that by which the national representation has led the country to an abyss." The indoptstdasci Be!ge observes : " This joy is legitimate. Victoriom at Duppel and at Copenhagen, K de Bismark cannot but be so likewise at Berlin, and the tall of parliamentary institutions in Denmark will have for corollary the triumph of absolutist ideas in Prussia. The alliance of Prussia with Austria will finish the work in Ger many. The liberals of that country, who hoped to find their enfranchisement in the war of Bleswig, will know then that they have forged arms to be. used against themselves. This was • result easy to be foreseen, and which we have often predicted." 4 4a1." JULY 14, 11 fi EN(fAGEMENT BETWEEN THE RTIAWARGE AND THE FLORIDA. (=roes nimmum.) -- SOUTHAMPTON, JULY 14.

It is by such means that the inoorporation of Lithuania and of White Ruthenia with the Russian empire is being accom plished. THE ITALIAN ARMY. The questions of armament and disarmament are being vigorously discussed in Italy. General Birk., in a long letter to his colleague, M. Lanni, reproaches him for having urged a reduction of 30 millions in the war budget. He thinks, on the contrary, that the naval and military budgets should be increased by many millions, in order to allow of the construction of arsenals, &c., and of the fortification of the principal places in Italy. The general, who writes from the camp of Ban Maurizio, puts the following question to the govern ment : What will you do to defend us against Austria in cue the latter, after having acquired the conviction that it is impossible for her to diempaise as by political intrigue wed the papacy, makes war on no neexpectly, and without declaration of war attempts to throw a corps of 150,000 men between Tessin sad Donn Riparia 1/30,00 men betwew the Adige and Tessin ; and 100,000 men between Ancona and Naples? lat.

THE PEACE NEGOTIATIONS. BERLIN, JULY 14. The ministerial Prorinsial Correspondenz of to day, referring to the recent change in the Danish ministry, says :—" It appears certain that this change is intended to preserve Denmark from further losses by at last entering upon a path leading to peace. It may be presumed that the German Powers will meet any earnestly meant peace policy of the Danish government by every means in their power. But peace is no longer to be obtained by Denmark except by her giving up the whole of filming- Holstein, and recognising its independence. An armistice can also only be agreed to when an acceptable basis for peace negotiations has been offered." DENMARK. COPENHAGEN, JULY 13, 4.29 r.m.

The Temps also has faith in the English alliance ; but it does not think it is to be maintained by fine phrases in a journal. For such an alliance to be solid and fruitful it must have concrete elements and definite objects. The practical question is, in what way Francis and Eng land can with the least risk oppose the Holy Al liance. The Temps' opinion is that the only way to do this is to favour the erection of a Scandinavian union. It is stated that a committee of the Council of State inclines to recommend the abolition of im prisonment for debt. Some reform on the subject is grievously wanted. In France there is no in solvent debtors' law as in England, and the most innocent debtor may be locked up five years for 201.

This morning were issued further papers relating to the war is New Zealand. The Governor, Sir George Grey, seat despatches is March sod April last respecting variens sissstws with the Datives, sod there are sever►l short despatches from Mr. °anis/ell. In a despatch dated May 16, Mr. Oardwell writes :—" I have bad under my con sideration, the following sat, passed by the Genets] Assembly of New Zealand is their last session :—No. 10, 'Au act to enable provincial legislatures to pass laws authorising t h e oorepulsory baldric of Led for works of a public nature.' I chianti, that this set applies to ell land within the pro. vine.. without excepting those to which the native title has sot been extinguished. This appears to me open to grave objection i point of policy. The home government has, I thick, under present circumstances, a right to require that laws calculated to awl so seriously the relations between the European sod native tares should be matted on the re sponsibility sad ►y the authority not of a local council, who from the nature of the case can cooly represent local interests, but of the General Assembly, whom decision, are adopted with referee** to the intonate of the whole °obey, sod are brought under the oognisance of the borne government. I shall be usable, therefore, to ad, im that the sot No. 10 should be coo6rmed by the Queen in its present shape. If native lands were excepted from its ope. ration it would be snobjectioeable." In another despatch Mr. CAA,'II says : " From yoar despatch, No. 53, of the 6th of April lest, I col lect that DOOM dife►ence has arisen between yourself and your mbristen reepeetiug the proper mode of dealing with the 183 Maori prisoners takes at Itangiriri, and the tone of your despatch leads me to coojeotare that if year advisers had commend with you in adopting a definite and generous come of action with regard to these persona the resistance to Sir Duane Cameron by the natives of Onion might, in your opinion. have been lees desperate, some loss of life avoided, and the eompletenees of the encore eohanced. On this I think it necessary to °beery' that, while I folly recognise the general right and duty of the colonial govern. meat to deal with matters of native policy properly so called, I consider that while active operations are being carried on under the conduct of her Majesty's officers, and in the main by her Msjerty's military and naval forms, it is for the Governor personally, as representative of the im perial government, to decide upon the fate of person who see takes prisoners in the course of them military opera. Kona. And although, before adopting any each decision, I should wish you to obtain the advice, and, if possible, the coocurrecoe of your minister's, I do not con sider that concurrence indispeosable. Bat, subject always to the positive law of the colony, I hold yea entitled to determine, and I look to you for deter mining, whether snob prisoners or any of them shah be released on parole or otherwise, or whether they shall be kept seder such control as may legally be applied to them as prisoners of war, or whether they shall be handed over to the civil authorities to be dealt with as criminal., I shall therefore be fully prepared to support you in case you should have thought it necessary, with or without the =went of your ministers. so to deal with them miscue= as In your opinion the public interest may have required. As I nadentand that your opinion he, an especial reference to the good offset which measurer of passeceity would have upon the military operations of Sir Dunces Cameron, I make no doubt that is forming that opinion you have beau fully acquainted with the views of Sir Done in Comers sad of the sgonods on which shoes views have been arrived at." Oa the 27th of last month the Colonial Minister, ex. paining the satisfaction with which he has mi the account of the opmetimas at New Plymouth, adds : " I take this opportunity of observing that the ineouve niences to which the Australian colonies are exposed from the ooationed &bootee of the small detachments of troops allotted to theta have bees striegly urged upon my atten tion. And I mast express my earnest hope that, is mess your anticipations should be realised, you will sot fall to take the earliest passible opportunity of restoring to New South Wftlill, Victor* South Australia, sad Tasmania the troops who have beta withdraws from them odenies." On the same date the Marqais of Hartiegtoe, as the part of the Secretary of State for War, acqueials Mr. Cardwell with the promemively augmentieg exposes of the military opesutloos, and with steps which have bees taken, which appear, in the opiates of the military authceitiee, to haply the prolonged cocupttioa of the troops of the advanced pone with all the attendant extraordinary expense for traaeport and rappliaa. This information 14 lamed on a letter from the Costroller of Army Expenditure in New Zealand. Mr. Cardwell, enclosing the War-office aommunication to Ge moor Sir George Grey, observes :—" I do not at all doubt the wisdom of the measures which baseborn adopted oa the recommodetica of the Deputy Conualorary-Geseral. But I regret to later from it that some months may elapse before General Cameros is able to withdraw his troops from the advanced position which they now occupy. I take this opportunity of rereads,/ the earned hope, which I have abowbore expressed, that the recant nacaosoca of her Ma. Jamie troops may lead to as early termiaatioa of ibis an. happy eoallot."
