Altareesa. ilLf Tv Namow Morning. 6i. .Alloaraa. IA Al.. LONDON, SATURDAY, JULY Z. An eminent physician was called in to attend a complicated case of dyspepsia. The patient, an eminent diner-out and gastronomist, was disposed to attribute the impaired condition of his stomach, his loss of appetite, and his shaky nerves, to any other cause than high living and an inordinate variety of dishes. No evidence of fevered tongue and bilious eye could persuade the patient (who was not only a gourmand but • member of Pazlia ment, that his complaint was over-feeding. Nobody could persuade him that it was not over-work of brain and excessive devotion to his country that had reduced him to that horrible state of sleepless ness and dejection. A martyr to patriotic labours, he took comfort in the thorough , consciousness of self-sacrifice, and proposed to restore an exhausted frame in the sulphur baths and chicken broth of the German " Waters." The doctor suggested • change of life—earlier hours and simpler fare. " The fact is," he said, "you eat " too much and too many things. More people are 4 ' killed by over-eating than over-drinking. Just " be good enough to convince yourself of the fright " ful penalties you have been inflicting on your " unfortunate stomach, you incorrigible tyrant ! " Order your usual dinner to-day, but instead of " consuming it throw it all into a basin by your " aide, and eat a chop instead. When all the "courses are gone through take a look at "the contents of the basin, and imagine all " that mixture tossing about and fermenting in " that digestive apparatus of yours, which is " now so terribly deranged."ffiThe patient com plied with this singular advice; and repented, and lived happy ever after. We have been irresistibly reminded of this case of indigesttion by the state of the Notice Paper of the House of Commons during this last week. Since the great debate which decided the fate of the Opposition for at least six months to come, the House has dwindled to a mere y”orum. Government makes and keeps a House, but on the Opposition side, and below the gang way, all the silent members and the walking gen tlemen have absconded to the Continent, or to the Isle of Wight, and only • few earnest potterer', a tew incorruptible small talkers, a few painstaking bores, a few conscientious fanatics, a few of those sticklers who, like playgoers from the country, are determind to see it out, and • iew of those'parliamentary boarders and lodgers who seem to have no7existence half the year apart from the benches on which they sit, and to which they cling as to a refuge for the bouneleas ; --only the incorrigibles, the inevitabba, and the indispensable* remain to wind up the business of the Session. Yet, look at the Notice Paper ! What a feverish activity ! what an =slaked passion for the public good!! what an insatiable curiosity ! A little before dusk in summer • sudden impe tuosity seizes upon childhood throughout the whole animated creation. Fish, flesh, and fowl, and little boys end girls, are all equally obstreperous and restless at sunset. Something of this infan tins rutheniumss seizes the remnant of the House of Commons just before they go to roost for the recess. Here, for instance, are • few items of the business transacted and questions asked on Thursday evening :—" Distribution of pay in the " Navy," " Foreign State Papers," " Putrid " Mast," " Hill Reservoirs," " Wine Licenses," " Passports," " Her Majesty's Ships Reesarch and " Enterprise," "Japan," " Poor Relief," "Edu " cation Inspectors' Reports," " Casual Poor in " the Metropolis," " A New Care War," "The " Royal Academy," and, last not least, " The " Indian Budget," which comes in like • leg of mutton at the fag end of • German table d'hole. Pt CHARLES WOOD chatting, as the French say, " between pear and obsess," on the destinies of A hundred and fifty millions of British subjects to some fifty of the last men in town, in the tone of an amateur Chancellor of the Exchequer at • Mechanics' Institute, might well be the last straw that breaks the camel's back. But no : the realest optimism of Sir CHARLES stimulated and sharpened the digestion of the House ; and after the House had gone into committee on the Appropriation Bill, and Mr. GLADOTONE had disabused the committee and the country of the be lief in more than a nominal surplus of 55,000/.,Mr. AYRTON glanced at the inconsiderable question of the Balance of Power in Europe. Then followed, inter aba, the New Zealand Loan Bill, and the spithead fortifications, and the Indian medical service ; and at daylight the House adjourned, to meet again at noon to lunch upon the Indian Budget. At dinner time the same evening, the following were a few of the scraps of the entertainment :—Chincha Islands ; Penton ver's Island ; Armstrong Shells ; Prince Conan coup d'itat ; WLsrox's Retreat ; Cathedral and Collegiate Churches ; Emigration of Circassian ; the Mexican Empire ; the loss of life and pro perty in the American civil war ; the came of Mr. O'Mau.sv lawir ; Emigration to the United THE EXPRESS, SATURDAY EVENING, JULY 23, 1864. States. Mr. COEDILN'S very is motion on the extension of Government Manufacturing este blishments—a motion striking at the very root of lavish expenditure and wasteful inefficiency— swept many of these fancy foreign dishes off the sideboard. But were it not for that providential Appropriation Bill, who will dare to doubt that there would be a perpetual quorum of members ready and willing to go on asking questions and retailing rumours, and calling attention to every thing in Heaven and earth, and under the earth, from this time till next February, and taking more delight in such harmless; sport than in all the plea sures of yachting, or deer stalking, or partridge shooting, or hunting. And yet these long-suffering patriots complain of parliamentary dyspepsia. Why not follow the advice of our eminent physician, and instead of attempting to digest night after night all these succulent morsels—why not throw them altogether in a heap on the table in front of the SPEAKER, and see how they look ? why not have all these notices and motions read out one after the other by the clerk, for the edification of an uninstructed British public, who know not what legislators suffer for their country t TAR renewal of the peculiar and intimate alliance formerly existing between the Courts of Russia, Austria, and Prussia, was last night the topic of an interesting discussion in the House of Lords. The restoration of that union can hardly be said directly to affect our interests, and perhaps, therefore, to those who are daily insisting that the vote of the House of Commons a fortnight since was a declaration in favour of our absolute neutrality under all circumstances, and our per fect indifference to the course of political events in Europe, it may seem that the Peers were engaged in an irrelevant discussion. As, however, it is certain that nothing was further than this intention from the mind of the great ma jority of the members of the House of Commons when Mr. K INO LAKE'e motion waspassed, we 11111R1010, for the present, that the progress of liberty and the advances of despotism on the Continent are as much the concern of the British Parliament now as they were in the days when DI ACV swan and HINRY BRUI:011•31, denounced the Holy Alliance. As a nation, we have our principles of government to maintain. How to maintain them must always be a question to be decided by political pru dence. Our rational example of order and liberty is • standing condemnation of despo tism, and we have the right to add to it our explicit protest. When, however, community in the exercise of despotic power becomes • bond between sovereigns—when two Emperors and a King join in a league to resist the progress and application of liberal ideas—we may be sure that they aim at something more than the coercion and repression of their own subjects. Narrow politicians of parochial mind may insist on the duty of liberal nations to shut themselves up to the pursuit of material gain ; but whatever free States may do, the great op pressors of the world will form their leagues and combine their forces. Perhaps Lord STRAI7ORD DR RIDCLIFFI would have done well to have treated what is loosely called the revival of the Holy Alliance on the basis of patent facts, rather than upon that of the disputed diplomatic correspondence published by the Morning Post. It was the Triple Alliance which made those letters of interest, and not those letters which gave im portance to the alliance. Earl R 088113.1. pro- nounced an opinion last night unfavourable to the genuineness of the despatches—a judg ment in accordance with that of the best foreign journals. It is to be regretted, however, that he should have imputed their orgin to Bourse specu lators. We can see no reasons for this conjecture, a nd many against its admissibility. Earl Russau. ealt with the general question with prudence. He showed from history that the Holy Alliance had failed, inasmuch se liberal ideas and liberal forms of governments had triumphed in all the countrieswhich ithadmarked out as the sphere of its influence. This is an important fact, and the po tentates most concerned would do well to take note of it. But although France threw off her Ikt-snort King, and Spain became constitutional, and Italy reconstituted herself, all thee° movements being in opposition to the principles of the three Courts, yet between 1815 and 1850 the Holy Alliance was the source of boundless mischief. Besides leading to interventions in Spain, Italy, and Hungary, it was a mutual insurance society to maintain the prerogatives of despots against their subjects, who asked for liberty and public rights. France was seen in 1830 to be too strong' , to be interfered with, and Spain could not be touched against her will. Bat it was not until Prince SCHWARSIIIBERG'S "immense ingra " titude " had destroyed the good understanding between Russia and Austria, and the united arms of England and France had broken the power of the CZAR, that Germany had liberty or Italy hope. At St. Petersburg, Vienna, and Berlin it is boasted that after an interruption of ten years and more this good understanding is restored, and it is intimated that the Three Powers will not for the future remain passive spectators of such irre gnlarities as during that period they have been compelled to witness. The value of this resolu tion will depend very much on the judgment which the three Courts form of the state of rela tions existing between England and France. Should the two Western Powers appear to be well agreed, the threatened action of these crowned conspirators will prove like one of Mr. DISRALLeII famous motions—it will be long delayed, and come to nothing when adventured. Lord STRATFORD Di Renctirrs dwelt last night upon the value of the French Alliance at the present time as • safeguard against dangers to Europe. We have lately had occasion to remark in the French semi-official newspapers an increased appreciation of the alliance with England, and it is satisfactory to find Earl Rcsszti. bearing witeess to the disposition of the French Government to cultivate a clear understanding with our own. It will be observed that Earl R rsarxx quoted from a newly-received despatch of M. DZOUTX Dr LHOTB, in which that statesman, referring with satisfaction to the successful co-operation of the Ministers of the two countries at Constantinople, expressed the hope that the accord between France and Great Britain on this sobject may be the precursor of their agreement on important subjects which may yet come before them. Englishmen of all parties will echo this wish, and its fulfilment will be the best guarantee of the peace and liberty of Europe against combinations of Kiegs and Empe rors.

LATEST IN T ELLIGEN CB. _.____ (=UTZll'il TUMMIES ) AMERICA. THE PEAOII NEGOTIATIONS. The inelipeadanee Beige of the 20th says : Lotion froin Berlin inform us that the pesos negotiations will open to-day, the 20th Judy, in V 1131212&. It is stated that they will be coedosted by the two Ministers of Po. reign Affairs, Herr Von Bismarck and Count Hochberg. It is probable that Denmark will be represented by two stetes• men who belong to the present cabinet, M. de Moltke aid M. de Qcsado, ministers without portfolios. Frames, which aided Denmark to place herself in con '. =ruination with the 01111111117 powers, and assisted in sketching out the first negotiations, now holds completely aloof. The choice of the city where the nego- tiations are to take plow sufficiently indicates this; in default of this proof one would be found in the susceptibility with which Germany repels the idea of all interference in a question which she menden exclusively her own affair, whether by Earope or by a great power. Denmark bee self, moreover, can only gain by throwing herself upon the generosity which her weakness imposes upon her adveteariee, Ka the control which their divergent interests will exercise over their conduct towards her. We do not me►n to say, however, that France remains completely indifferent, although she does not act. The plan of an eventual absorption of Denmark by the Confide nttion and that of a material aggrandisement of Prussia forbid her to do so. Independently of the reservations upon this point already made by the Chancellery of H. Drouyn de Lbuys, mention is made of a fresh circular of that minister respecting the negotiatioss now open, and is which, weepy- ing himself specially with the future governmset of the , duchies, he indicates, it is said, the consultation of the wish= of the populations as the sole means of esttling the rind claims to the sovereignty of the new Asia. This view is also that of the liberal papers of Germany, especially of those which appear in the duchies. Organs of the send meets of their fel/ow-citizens, they show therm to us as very weary of the state of provisional administration in which the conquering powers bold them, and ready to ins against every attempt to impose upon them any other sore reign than the candidate of their choice, Prince Frederick of Augustenbarg. The Paris Temps says : _ _ _ In London everyone is looking towards Vienna. Will the diplomatists be more successful as the banks of the Danube than epos those of the Thames la the short space of time from the 20th to the 31st July will they em ceed in discovering a basis of negotiations! Nothing Jodi rtes this at present. The greet German powers claim the entire deans, while t►e Copenhagen cabinet still elinp to the: chimerical project of a personal union. It is probable, however, that an understanding will be arrived at at lest, and that the allies, in exchange for the Duchy of Lanenburg, will code to Denmark the northers part of filetwig, which extends from Apenrade to the North Sea. It remains to be seen whether the populations interested and German public opinion will ratify this compromise. Aooording to • ministerial paper (the Brrs/art Gazstis) Prussia has determined not to consent to the entrance of Sleswig into the German Confede ration. The new state, it is said, is to be placed under • sort of suzerainty of Prussia, WIATHZR RIPORT.-(THIS DAY.) •••••••T. JWLT tip • L. S. T. N .4lau t 4.74 IS &W. kbwdosii OS W .11. W .

He used to work with • triad of my husband' s , aid he thee took is work-mom of his own, but continued t, come sad see us. It was my husband who got him ha situ atioe at Mr. Hodgkineoes, and when he left that h e worked for us about • fortnight. The last time 1 ea. him was ou the morning of Thursday, 14th July, the d a y he sailed. He told us he was going in the ship VirtorU from the Loudon Docks, to New York. Oa the previous Saturday. the 9th Md., I had sees him at my house when I left him at about half-past seven o'clock at night talking to his framed Jobe Haifa. He had net told me he was going anywhere. When I came bark, at shoat half-past eight, Haifa was still there at work, bet Muller was gone. I did not see Muller at all on the Sundae, bat bevelled on Monday between tea and elem. o'clock, and mated himself on the sbopboard beside my husband. He then took out of his pocket the gold Albert guard now pro- duced, and said he had paid 31.

He told us that be bought the chain and rim( of a man at the docks whom he met when he was pie( to take his pump ticket. and he thought it was a good bargain. I yoked him about it and said it was not worth the motley, upon which be took up the shears and scraped the chain to show me the way of tasting it. He said, ' You see it is punt gold." I observed the hat he was wearing was quite new, and I said to hum. " How extravagant you are with your hate." He said be bad smashed his old one in getting out of an omnibus to °blip • lady.

ATHENS, JULY 22, The National Assembly in its sitting of to-day has censured the conduct of the Minister of War as unconstitutional, he having incurred expenses not authorised by the budget and without previously asking the Assembly to vote the necessary credit. A ministerial crisis is imminent ALGERIA. PARIS, Jou 23. A report of the Minister of War has been pub lished to-day, followed by an imperial decree modi fying the administration of Algeria. The report says the insurrection was not only caused by fanaticism, but still more by au un founded hope of surprising the vigilance of the ►uthorities, who were believed to be disarmed, be cause divided in their action. The report, therefore, proposes to increase the power and responsibility of the generals command ing divisions, making the prefects subordinate to them, and entrusting them with the administration of the natives established beyond the limits of the commercial districts. EXPRESS FROM PARIS. (nom oos owl, PARIS. Fiaur ETmum. Yesterday was one of the annual field days at the French Academy. It was the day of the dis tribution of the prizes of virtue, and Prince Albert de Broglie was charged with presenting the report. It is a long document, justifying the gifts delivered in compliance with the bequest of K de Montyon, once a subject of pleasantry, but which the prince shows is now recognised as a useful institution. He ingeniously reminds his bearers that if pub licity is now the condition of all life, too often lighting up the darkest featured of human nature, it is well also that there should be a body whose honourable task is to spy out and proclaim to the ' world the not rare acts of virtue which are the fair aide of humanity. M. de Villemsin, the greatest authority in French literature and perpetual secretary of the Academy, had opened the sitting with his report on the works offered for the concursta, of which the subject was the " Eulo gium of Chateaubriand." He took occasion to explain the reason for which the Bordin prize was not awarded to K Tains'. " History of English Literature," a decision which caused at the time a sensation of general dissatis faction among literary man. It is rarely that the academy thus condescends to excuse itself to public opinion. Perhaps in future years it may learn to take it into consideration before pronouncing it■ decision. The audience, as is natural at this season, and with a temperature above 90 deg., was limited in number, and the academicians themselves were for the most part absent. The Comte de Flandres, second son of King Leopold, was present. It is this morning stated that Duke Frederick of Holstein refuses to submit the proofs of his right to the suomssion of the Duchies to the Diet. It is suggested that the plan of Austria and Prussia is to obtain from Denmark the cession of the Duchies to them, after which they will conjointly bestow than on the duke. In this way the question of nation alities will be avoided, but it seems difficult to understand how such • (*mansion of the war can be reconciled with the avowed objects of the war. The Opinion denounces • new project of German dualism, by which Prussia would acquire the subju gated territory in return for her Polish provinces united to Russia, and a guarantee to Austria of at least all she still holds in Italy. It is even added that there is • plan prepared for absorbing the minor states of the north in a Prussian empire, in compensation for which, Austria taking the southern portion, France might find herself, with the consent of all parties, on the Rhine. The relations between the French and Italian governments were never more cordial than at pte sent. Prince Humbert, the heir to the throne, is expected here in the course of next month. There still come reports of cannonading at sea heard off the coast of F.Scamp, which those who do not know that there are no Confederate ships in European waters (excepting the Rapp►hannock, detained by the French government at Calais), ascribe to encounters between the Federal and Confederate ships. It is more probable that they are produced by vessels of the Channel squadren practising. The Bourse is very dull, with a fall of 5c., not- withstanding the favourable balauce-sheet pub lished by the bank. The augmentation in the metallic reserves is ascribed to the purchase of bullion, and not to any diminution in the calls on the resources of the establishment.
