SPORTMO ♦ STRCIAL EDITION of the " EXPRESS," asestaisiag tie results of the day's Rams, is pub- Uolhodipery evening during the Sporting Season, at do SW& Um a paw which has lasted for a fall month— /MN the 7tl of May to the 7th of June. the Home egummoris is this evening to resume the dismission lbs Government Resolutions respecting the future _ _ _ _ ONO 06.071.11151 t of India. How many of the Mow boos d theaissas of Commons have once bestowed a I I Ilissiblepss the subject during this interral of l :tbirty days ? How many of them bring back to the rftsessiderstion of the subject more information and less prepossession and blind prejudice than when it was last before them ? And yet there is same change in the posi tion al the question in so far me the House of Com mons is concerned. A Member of the Hones is new President of the Board of Control, and •npon him, both in virtue of his ostensible office, and the greater pains which he is believed to have - likes to make himself acquainted with Indian poli ties and policy than my other member of the ;,04hinet, the charge of spokesman for Government *WM seem naturally to devolve. The proses element. of Lord ltirsuutv on the all-important question of the mode of appointing the Council for India, and of the amount of authority with which it "le to be invested, is waited for with anxious curiosity. eigemon rumour has given the noble lord credit for ..• Internal relation to the proposal to vest the noun " mate of Eve members of the Council in lee urban . illestitsmaiss. Of the utterly impracticable charac ter of each a mode of election our opinion has been unceremoniously expreeeed. But we would gladly believe that the father, or foster-father, of such a proposal is too firmly convinced of the necessity of giving an elective character to at least a portion of the Council, to abandon his conviction, merely be muse one of the details of a plea far carrying it into effect has been rather uncivilly received .by the general paters. It is to be hoped, moreover, that Lord STARLIT will not, like his able and ac complished predecemor in office, rest satisfied with endeavouring to obtain a good mode of appointing the Councillors • it is to be hoped that he will seek to snare for them some real power and influence after they have been appointed. Mach of the responsi bility for the shape which Government may, under the influence of external pressure, be disposed to give their MIMEO for the Home Government of India, will necessarily attach to Lord STARLIT. He is the Indian Minister. He is understood to have taken mach pains to obtain a knowledge of Indian affairs. He is the son—the alter ego—the epee alters—of the PREMIER. He is the only one of our younger nobility—with perhaps the exception of Lord GODLRICII—who is looked upon as giving premise of statesmanship. A warm interest has been awakened in him in many quarters by his per ' 1 social abilities and by his peculiar position. He ham on more than one oocsaion evinced great power of patient and laborious inquiry, and an eminently judi cial impartiality of judgment. Although at present sonneeted with the stand-still, or even retrograde party, he has given symptoms of a spirit of free inquiry and of liberal Malaga. Then the hereditary politics if his Home me those of constitutional liberty, although his father—the CORIOLLNI*3 of aristo cratical Whiggery—is at this moment in a fit of lasting spleen leading on the Tory Volition' in their assault on the citadel of Whig Rome. Natural temperament and the traditions of his House an one side, deference to paternal authority en the other, am at war within Lord Stmt. L ET. Is he to follow the natural bent of his inclinations, and to avail himself of the advantages offered him by his social position, for assuming a pro minent place among the statesmen who in the imme diate futon are to be found in the van of pro rate or is he to salmi& into a reluctant con formist to the policy ef a party with which he has as sympathies, and thus to doom his promising tehmts to premature blight? So long se Load Deasy remains an active member of the political world great allowance will he made for his eels ; and yet every word and deed of that eon will be watched with the keen-eyed though not unfriendly jealousy of hope. The queetion of Indian adminis indica is one on which the principles of the Eng lish parties of Progress and Retrogression do est necessarily come into ahem and dellasd em het. It is a sort of neutral grazed an which a statesman of either potty may gain Morels. An opportunity is afforded Lord &MUT is the impending disimions of establishing a high character with the numerous class which, belonging strictly to neither party, holds ocautioaelly the balsams between beck, without offending his present Masse* we throwing obstacles in the way of a recon ciliation with his natural and hereditary 'Sim. In se far as India is cescerned, the question at issue is purely administrative. In so far es England is con strued, it is a question not of new liberties to be mabed, but of liberties which are recognised by all pude§ me entitled to be protected against insidious enmeshment. Another eirournstanos which has contributed in some degree to alter the position of the contro versy in the Home of Commons is the intimation eif the wary Mr. GLAD STONE that he Is at length ;boat to freak oover. We could hare wished that on reek ea important oceasion the trumpet had given a lee uncertain mond. Ia the immediate practical milt e f atan P lta by Mr. the Third Berofation " toeing hod to the p do nanurodly think it Director, ;hould be present Sernon, the Government of India &mien et Parliament objection te: fir dininerdn in the event of its being time might be saved war Board of Control to be " empowered to preside, " when and so often se he shall think fit, over the "Court of Directors in lien of the Chairmen thereof, " and exercise say d the powers now ordinarily e'er " Mind by seek Chairman." Under inch an arrange ment the Directors as a Council would retain their initiative and their general administrative powers. The Minister of the Crown would be enabled to communicate with them orally, a much more effective and instructive method than by formal minutes in writing. Discussion of important question, of policy would become pos sible, and the part taken in all measures by the Minister and by the Directors be made more unmistakeably apparent. What ere desiderate in Mr. Gientrronit's Notice of Amend. went is a distinct explicit reeognition of the pria4 ciple of election in the constitution of the funs, Council far India. It is true that a majority of the present Directors have been elected ; but ander Mgt ClLADMillell Resolution their appointment weal become a Parliamentary one; and their eaten:met tenure of office, if prolonged—or the tenant of their snessinare, if they were distal's& at the end of the year—might be transformed into one by Crown ap pointment. We are relectant to leave such a question open. We have contended for something analogous to the actual Home Government of India ; but it is the system, not the men, we support. The system has been the necemary growth of circumstances, and . its insin featarm ought to be preserved; but wick' . all our respect for several of the present membered the Court of Directors, we should scarcely regard their mainteaance is odioe as a body a eashet equivalent for the absence of a system ankles to that wider which they were originally appointed. Term have been fresh misunderstandings with the Arabs in the neighbourhood of Aden, resulting is a sortie of the garrison, a conflict, and a return to camp. The facts of the case are briefly these. The Sultan of Lahedge stopped the 'applies flowing into as from the interior, and patrolled his followers np to the outwork' of our camp. Upon this the Resident and Brigadier Commanding ordered a form into readiness, marched into the plain, fell in with the Arabs, repulsed them, drove them into a for tified village, and there brought them to terms. Against the management of the expedition, considered u a demonstration of mere force, there Is nothing to object. But we have to expose oar regret and our surprise that after twenty years' occupancy of Aden, physical form should still remain our sole resource for dealing with these predatory and nomadic tribes. In 1840 the Arab actually entered our cantonments. In 1841 we retaliated by an expedition into the interior for the &striation al their strongholds. Some years afterwards the Arabs avenged themselves by an attack upon a hunting party of oar officers, one of whom they murdered. From that date, however, our gelation' were supposed to be advancing towards a more satiafastory condition, until the recent conduct of the Lahedge Sultan revealed the real state of native feeling, and resulted in the present sortie and blood shed. We cannot but apprehend that the principles up= which we have proceeded in our relations with these half•civiliaed or barbaric tribes have from the first been faulty. We more than doubt whether it was in the first instance a wise policy to bestow so much attention upon our defensive works. We are well assured that it neither was, is, nor can be, good policy to ignore those higher powers always at the command of a civilised and :free race, and to mart those lower means of retaliation and brute force. Moral sot physical power is the key to our supre macy throughout the East. The latter, of course, must be ready at hand if required, but should be appealed to only in the last resort, for a particular object, and in • manner calculated to impress the minds of those attacked, not with feelings of our revengeful passion, but of our just, deliberate, aid temperate resolve to secure peace for ourselves and for our neighbours. Walls, forts, and all defensive precautions are liable to be iuterpreted by ignorant tribes into signs of fear. They embolden hate ; they imply distrust; they create separation ; and they permit our own soldiers to trust to artificial defences in lieu of to their own arms, their own energies, and their own com mon sense. If, foregoing all defensive works, we had scouted the possibility of attack by these ma rauders; if we had maintained patrols of Irregular Horse constantly moving in front of our position ; if we had taught these troops to treat plunderers and highwaymen as vulgar, cri minal, and disreputable, as creatures to be pitied and punished where requisite but never to be feared ; it we had persistently appeared among the tribesmen as protectors of peaceable men, a s encouragers of trade, as above blood fetid and retaliation, and as desirous only of dealing justly and securing justice—if we had continuously pro ceeded thus, we might, indeed, have had at Bret to put down violence with a strong hand, but oar strength once known, felt, and respected, we should have been enabled to act upon the Asa& better nature, and we should long ere this have been aided by themselves in securing mutual benefits and in preventing violence. It is impossible not to contrast our relations to. wards these Aden tribes, with those established, in • few years, with borderers as savage, and at ens tine not leas hostile, upon the frontiers of Upper Scinds. We cannot forget that, awakened appe rently to a perception of this contrast, the govern ment at Bombay directed the commandant on the &dude frontier to detach a squadron of his horse for service at Aden. We saint forget that, owing to a rejection of General JACOBS'. choice of an CANT habituated to similar duties, the detachment mis carried, and has not, after a lapse of some years, yet remised Ados. It is time that a dosage in principle should be adopted in oar oonduct towards the Arab tribes. By pro ceedieg as at present, we can only perpetuate hatred and renew bloodshed. Such expeditions, undertaken under a fierce sun, and cheerfully carried to victory, relent honour on our soldiers, but they as eertainly do not increase our reputation as rulers. The present Is not a time when we can afford to mate influence in the Fast—least of all al we afford to do so in the neighbourhood of Central Mk t and we do trust that for the future, moral and not physical force may be principally regarded in all our relations with Asiatics. sees NEWSPAIMIS MIT ADROAD.—On th e I s t o f J u ly end deeselbretel, ibis peep ea al seespepers Nat Ana gm" ess peeve es Weal sesemers, be pee ped Is deep% etherwles she asersgegen TM - est be feu fort, Master e 1 lir Berea. • At the Came I BMW Buiwer Lytton and Sir Jolts Tartar .

In a circular to the mayors and shanty trustees of his department, the prefect de sires them forthwith to hold special meetings to take into consideration the reasons urged by government in brow of the measure. He continues : I doh be happy to be at eebled to same the minister of your sympathy had mai to this affair.

I beg you to send in. a copy bars the tat of *agues of the reseintkns which yon may tome to in reference to this circular. After this it does not seem probable that there can be any truth in the report that the obnoxious measure was about to be withdrawn. It is an old and favourite project of the Emperor, who once when Odißoa Barret was minister asked him to bring it forward, but that statesman refused. The Nord positively contradicts a statement circulated in England that General &plume was about to resign. On the 9th of funs a Frenchman, named Le gendre, will be tried by the Correctional Tribunal of Boulogne, on a charge of conspiracy. He was arrested in March last, and in the folds of his cravat there were found two copies of a " letter to parliament and the press," signed by the revolution ary committee, Felix Pyat, Bowan, and Tallandier. Legendre had been travelling about in France for two or three years, his ostensible badness being to obtained orders for " patent hygienic horse-bits." It is rumoured that he has made important revela tions touching a new attempt on the Emperor's life, which wee to have been made in June. He, himself; it is said, was asked to take charge of a fulminating bomb. Yesterday at noon Lient. de Mercy was publicly degraded on the Place Bellecour, at Lyons. De tachments from the different regiments composing the garrison formed square. The prisoner being brought into the centre in full uniform, a sergeant stepped forward and tore off his epaulette and the scale on the other shoulder, throwing them at the lieutenant's feet. His sword was then broken, and the pieces were also thrown at his feet. The next step was to tear off the buttons of his uniform, and the military degradation was then complete. Lient. de Mercy appeared very calm, except at the mo ment when the nergeaut seised his epaulette, when he raised his arm smartly in an attitude of resist ance. He was marched off the parade-ground to the prison of St. Joseph, followed by a great crowd. The Daily News and Globe were seized to-day. PARIS, SATITIDLY &VINING. The conference assembled to-day pursuant to an nouncement. It is reported that Count Walewaki will come to Paris from Fontainebleau again on Thursday next, from which it is inferred that the conference will agaia meet on that day. The Bourse has been more depressed than ever to-day. The au thorities have the incredible fatuity to attribute the continued fall to the propagation of false news ; and a placard signed by the Prefect of Police wu posted in side the Baum to-day, etatirg that the Commissary of Police, attending the Bourse, had received orders to use especial diligence to arrest all persons retailing false reports. The effect of this, as might reasonably have been expected, was to make matters much worse. The Rents fell 10 o. for cash and 15 o. for account, closing at 69.35 in each cue. Mobilier was very heavyindeed, and fell 12.50. The Orleans railway fell 12.50,and the other lines from sf. to 10L There were some purchases to realise profits within the last few minutes. The Official Gazette of Teheran, in announcing that the Shah of Persia has subscribed to the fund for the widows and orphans of English soldiers massacred in India, mays that the English have been leo thoroughly threshed and are in such great want of money that they are obliged to ask for help in all quarters. For this reason, adds the journal of the court of Teheran, " the Sublime Muter of Persia ham condescended to bestow his charity upon the English government." The Merseing Post was seized to-day. A M. de Onset has been elected a member of the Corps Legialatif for a section of the Orne by 14,328 votes out of 27,178, the remainder of which were distributed amoog various candidates, most of whom, it is alleged, were eqnally devoted to government. It is also said that the government, for the first time, abstained from nominating a candidate. No reliable particulars of the election are however yet known. A letter from %Kier, in the Messagsr du Midi says M. Bonaire°, brother to the director of the Oraissessac to Beziers Railway, and If. Son baignf, , contractor for that line, have j est been arrested on a charge of swindling and breach of confidence." The Tribunal of Correctional Police yesterday tried 14 men, one in flight by default, for having formed a secret political society for the assassination of the Emperor and the overthrow of the govern ment. It was proved, and not denied by some of the messed, that the society existed, and that its inten tion was to make an attempt to kill the Emperor, and create insurrection in the early part of March ; also that it was in communication with refugees in London, and received a delegate from them, and that it was likewise in sommonication with the conspiracy at Chalons-our-Saone. It was further proved that the conspirators met in wine shops in the Rae da Petit-Carreen, the Rue de Charenton, and the Boulevard Cont escarps, and in the gardens of the Palais Royal and Luxembourg. Ludy, it wee shown that some of the men had attempted to make ful minating powder, and had been appointed chiefs of particular districts in Paris to take part in the pro jeoted insurrection. One of the prisoners admitted that he bad discussed with some of hie fellow-con spirators the beet plan of killing the Emperor, and that they had come to the conclusion that it would he to stop his Majesty's carriage when out driving, and then to attack him. The tribunal condemned three of the men, named Moulin, Aubrey, and Limes, to 18 months' imprisonment, and the first named to 500 f. fine, and the lead two to 3001. each; one, named Champin, to 15 months' imprisonment, and 200 f. fine; another, Bomnichon. to 13 mouths, and 200 f. flue ; another, Marly, to six mouths, and 100 f. fine ; three others to three months leek cos to two months, and another to ono namth. All eleven were besides condemned to five pore inter , diction of civil rights. The etbor three were acquitted. Moulibi oftwoorodsl er/ S M the others aro woricass. BERLIN, Inn 4. The possibility of the King's restoration to health is more than ever doubted. At the last consults, don, Dr. Schoeuleie, who has the reputation of being the first physician is Germany, could not con ceal his opinion that a ours was not to be hoped for. Ha repeated a wish 'bendy expressed, that he might be allowed to resign his poet in the King's 'umiak The other physicians do not publicly ac mes the same opinion as Dr. Schoenlein, but none et them venture to prosaism that his Majesty will recover; they content themselves with saying that all hope is not lost. The " pietist" party is azesed-, Ugly misery at the paapost et die *lmo orb Profit booming an ethetive Regent, and do their utmost to pomade the. goblin that the Ling is Vetting bettor. There is already a talk of a change of ministry, and in is thought probable that one of the first isrktpendsit acts of the prince will be to eel MM. D'U and lYAuerewald to succeed to the inheeiteieVol M. Manteuffel. Our advica of the lame date say : !' There it no doubt. that *einem of Prussia to act as Regent will be prolonged for three months more in July next. This will be the last prolongation. The necessity of taking some de finitive step hu become so generally recognised that even the persons who form part of the King's house hold advise the solution. "It is said that while at Coburg Prince Albert signed the document by which he makes over his hereditary rights to.the Duchy of Coburg to his second son. The reigning Doke of Saxe-Coburg has no children, and Prince Albert, who is the nearest Agnate, is detained by his position in Eng land. As there would b• some inconvenience in the Prince of Wales, who will be King of England, being reigning Duke of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha, the second son has been selected. The young Prince is shortly expected at Berlin, and will remain some time in Germany to prepare himself for his position as a Gel= Prince.

The Armenian, African mail packet, outward bound, was at Madeira. When off Caps Palmas on the Bth of April, on board the Regina Coeli, a French emigrant ship, the passengers (natives, who were to be taken to the French colonies), mutinied, and massacred all the crew, with the exoeption of the captain and six men, who were on shore ; and the doctor, wham the mutineers spared, and two men to steer the ship. The vessel wu fitted-up as a slave ship, and the other passengers, about 680 in number, were made close prisoners immediately on their arrival on board. A part of them, however, while on deck airing, seized an opportunity to make themselves masters of the ship. Two hundred and fifty et the mutineers swam on shore on the 13th of April, and were killed as they landed by the cap tain of the vessel and his allies on shore. The ves sel was ultimately captured off the Callenu by the Ethiope, and carried into Monrovia, where the re mainder of the emigrants on board made their escape. The Regina is detained there awaiting ad judication for salvage. She wee taken to be char tered to convey thou emigrants to the Mauritius, but a rumour was ant that the destination was nearer Henault. Trade was brisk, and the coast averagely healthy.
