LONDON, FRIDAY, JUNE 24. Sous of the Prussian journals affect to regard the prospect of hostilities breaking out between Germany and this oountry with complete itdif ferenoe, if not with positive exultation. If this feeling really exists to any extent amongst sober minded Germans, they may be assured that it is not shared by any section of reflective and re sponsible opinion in this country. If we are at length compelled by the supreme claims of national honour and public justice to talcs any part in the struggle, we shall do so with a feeling of the profoundest reluctance and regret. But this regret would be founded even more in the causes which may render interference necessary than on the mere fact of the interference itself. !thee ' been • severe shock to all established principles of civilization and progress, • distress to all en lightened and liberal minds, to find a great nation, proud of its cultivation and advanced ideas, sud denly giving way to a lust of mere conquest, and pursuing a war of vindictive aggression, worthy only of barbarous and medieval times. The Prus sians do not seem to be aware of this, do not yet understand apparently the pain, surprise, and disgust their conduct has excited in every free community. Amongst ourselves especially it has been a bitter disappointment to find, not only the ignorant and bigotted, but the more liberal and intelligent sections of German society, either actively encouraging this miserable war of sixty against one, or silently acquiescing in its lawless prosecution. We have been accustomed, for example, to regard the Prussian nation as at the head of the German peoples both in general intelligence and political advancement, and to look forward with hope to the liberalising effect of its steady constitutional progress on all the smaller German States. There were, apparently, good grounds for entertaining such • hope in relation, at all events, to the constitutional and liberal party amongst the Prussian people. This party, feeling apparently, what all intelligent ob servers at a distance had long felt, that in order to become really strong and prosperous the nation Deeded above all things internal development, laboured for • time with commendable zeal and singleness of purpose to secure its steady progress in the path of constitutional freedom. They carried on this great and necessary work in • thoroughly legal and pacific manner, resist ing with equal firmness the efforts of mere revolutionary violence on the one hand, and the resolute encroachments of arbitrary power on the other. Englishmen, of all parties, naturally watched the struggle with peculiar sympathy and hope, and were delighted to see the patriotic efforts of the constitutional party supported by the body of the nation. The apparent firmness of the nation and its representatives in maintaining their rights against the illegal measures of Ministers and the arbitrary action of the Crown, produced • confident expectation that the principles and party of freedom would ultimately triumph ; and it was naturally anticipated that the triumph of constitutionalism in Prussia would prepare the way for the political emancip►tion of Germany, by rousing the smaller States to the necessity of internal reform. These brighter hopes for the future of Germany were at their height immediately before the out break of the war. But this violent and ignomini ous crusade against Denmark has destroyed the fair prospect. It is not simply that the mere fact of the war has for the time being arrested the constitutional struggle and given a disastrons ascendancy to the military element in the Prussian State. This must have been the temporary effect of any foreign conflict, even the most necessary and legitimate in which the country could have engaged. It is the motives from which the war was undertaken, and the spirit in which it has been waged, that are so fatal to the prospects of freedom in Germany, and that have of necessity alienated the regard and dis appointed the hopes of her truest friends in every free country. In this country we have witnessed with mingled pain and amazement the humiliating spectacle of • whole nation swept by a mere gnat of childish vanity and passion into • complete for getfulness not only of their own rights, but of the rights of others. In reply to a crafty and delusive appeal to • false sentiment of nationality, the whole Prussian people has at once condoned the highly political crimes of M. Itisusece and his associates. There seems absolutely to be no exception to this disastrous ruin of every constitutional hope. Even the more liberal and patriotic membersof the consti tutional party appear to have been ready at once to sacrifice the substance of domestic liberty to the mere shadow of foreign conquest. They actually supported the worst enemy of constitutional go vernment which Prussia has ever known in a war undertaken avowedly to destroy the constitutional TILE EXOWISB, FRIDAY NVESING, JUNE 24, liberties of a neighbouring State. AU this, it is true, has been done in the 1121/011 abused name of nationality ; but ClerinAn nationality, as interpreted by recent emits, greens apparently the resolute oppression of all neighbouring ns• tionalities not strong enough to resist the com bined forces of Germany, and which may there fore be attacked with comparative impunity. No disappointment could possibly be more bitter or extreme to those who had looked with some confi dence to the liberals of Germany, and especially of Prussia, for the political development and con stitutional progress of their common country. In stead of regarding enlightened Germans as bent on domestic improvement and political reform, as pacific and conservative in their national charac ter, as just and disinterested in their dealings with other nations, we are now unhappily compelled to regard them as violent and aggressive, as indifferent to genuine freedom at home and opposed to its progress abroad, sa ready to sacrifice to momentary passion all considerations of public duty, as liable to violent impulses which overleap all public rights and international engagements, and can only be restrained by the display or the actual exertion of superior force. LAN INTELLIGENCE. A CONGRESS. The Voter:mid of Vienna, in returning to the idea of a congress, which it considers the only means of solving the present difficulties, says : "We have set ourselves from the commencement against this congress, and we dread it as much now as we did at the period when Napoleon 111. pro posed it ; but it appears to have become the least evil, and if the three powers whose sovereigns are conferring together at the waters of Germany can not come to an agreement there will be no other resource than that of consenting to a congress." that a physician had tried experiment' upon the head of IA Poosmeraiii, and ascertained that it was conscious a long while after having been out off, is a pure fable.

A letter from Bisaiogen of the 19th says :—"The telegraph has already informed you that the arrival at the Emperor and Empress of Rona was closely followed by that of their Austrian Majesties. The former sovereigns slighted at the Kornis, and there are only two houses between that and the Villa Here, where the Emperor and Empress of Austria reside. The Czar has brought with him has two sons, the Grand Dukes Paul and Sergey, and his daughter the yang Greed Duchies. Francis-Joseph being the last comer, visited the Emperor Alexander IL, through • pelting ran, the morning after his arrival. The Empress of Austria, who was suffering from the fatigue of her journey, had not yet left her apartments. The Emperor of Austria won the uni form of a Russian general. A abort time after, the Carr, in the dregs of • general of Austrian cavalry, and attended by Prince Dolgoruki, one of his aldr-dem•mp, returned the visit. In the inning the two emperors, in plain clothes, and accompanied by the Empress of Russia, made their appear ance on the grand promenade. It would be impossible to mention the number of Rootless and English who are now here. The crowd is immense, and the august visitors have some difficulty in walking about, so eager is e►eryose to get • clogs sight of them. The two sovereigns salute with great amiability the persons argued them. During the promenade the Empress of Russia took the arm of the Emperor of Austria. Her coun tenance bears the trans of the physics' safferinspi for the alleviation of which she has visited Kissing's. As the daughter of the Grand Duke of Darmstadt she bad, when young, the reputation of being endowed with the most amiable qualities, and that character has nereased sines she has become an Empress. The Grand Duke of Oldenburg is also at Simian° ; his presence hen shows that the last word as to the succession of the Duchies is not yet spoken in favour of the Priam of Augustenburg. The Grand Duke is • handsome man, and his countenance is very pleasing. He accompanied the two Emperors l• their promenade. Count de Rechberg and Priers de Gortchakolf, arm in um, followed their sovereign. Thia morning the Emperor of Austria and the Grand Duke of Oldenburg ware together on the promenade, the Coons de Rechberg convening with Baron de Median. The King of Bavaria is among the latest arrivals." Another letter from Hinges) in the Nora German Ocutat mays :—" Almost all the great stages have sect here either representatives or man of confidence charged to ob. serve what is going on.

The hearing of this appeal was, oo this the tenth day of its being before the house, resumed by The Lord Advocate for the respondent. He began by stating that the result of the presumption which he presented to the house on • former day was that the parties had come to • fall understanding that they courted each other with • view to marriage ; bat, obstacles having arisen in regard to the marriage, it was arranged that the marriage should be private ; and then the lady having religions scruples with regard to • private marriage which had taken plan in Scotland, obtained the consent of the appellant to another ceremony in Ireland. The propositions of law which he was prepared to advocate were—firstly, that there was • promise of marriage givers by the appel lant to the respondent In Scotland ; secondly, that there was a mutual promise to marry proved by subsequent ac knowledgment of • serious and real engagement also in Scotland ; and, thirdly, that the ceremony which took plan in Ireland constituted • valid marriage, and standing by itself would be • valid marriage. The two first propositions depended on the law of Scotland, and the last on the general law as laid down h, negate. The law of Scotland, founded on the principles of the civil law, end being still that which was at one time the general law of Europe, was that consent made , and the question was how inch consent was to be prose The evi dence of commit might be direct, or it might he circum stantial and pmenorptive. If maniac, be acknowledged directly is or by pare infernos from the written words of the party denying the manage , that would be enough, and if parties lived together as %ahead and wife, and so conducted themselves by express 'mends of marriage or otherwise as to lead to their being by habit sod repute married person among those with whom they were associated, that would be enough. Dea li ng with the question of "copal subsequante," he contended that amidd was to be taken as the fulfilment of • premiers of marriage ; it implied matrimonial coo sent. The learned counsel cited authorities and elaborately examined the law of Scotland in all its bearings, and the gist of his argument, applying the facm, as they were to be gathered from the correspoodeon and the evi dence is the case, may be stated ea follows :—That the acts and acknowledgments and conduct of the appellant and respondent proved that they had entered into a contract of mamage according to the law of Scotland, sod were sufficient to prove aa interchange of consent to marry, and were incapable of explanation on soy other hypothesis than that the parties had entered into the re of husband and wife. That the conduct of the parties was sot such, during their residence io `Scotland, as to render them, by habit and repute, married persona, and to give rise to • belief that they were so married in the minds of all persons who knew of the existence of both, and of their relations to each other while it did not induce in the mind of anyone • belief t hat they were living in eoscubinage. That the parties having promised to many each other, and impala having followed that promise, ipsium matriroonium was constituted thereby. That the celebration of marriage in the Roman catholic chapel at Itostrevor being clearly proved, though dined by the appellant, and being prima facie in law • valid marriage, the onus of proving insanity was upon the appellant, sod he had failed to prove, as required by 19 Geo. If, e. sea. 1, that at any time within a year before the 15th August, 1857, on which day the said marriage was celebrated, he bad been and professed himself to be • protestant and in particular he had failed to prove that prior to that date he had bees christened or eciofirmed, or had communicated, or had performed any of than acts of religion that are performed by professing protesnota alone, and are not performed by professors of other religions or of no religion. That the appellant having professed himself to be • catholic at the time of the ceremony of marriage, sad baying obtained the celebestioe of the ceremony by to diming that belief is the mind of the officiating priest, he was personally barred from pleading, eoetrary to his profes sion on that occasion, that he had during the imme diately preceding year been, or profaned himself to be, • protestant. - . . .

A letter from Berlin of the 21st says It is certain that Lord Russell, in presenting the pro ject of mediation, has foreshadowed the possibility that the English government would be forced to abandon the attitude it has maintained hitherto. The truth is that the ministry has decided to send into the Biltic Bea the squadron stationed in the Channel. There has been no ides thus far of blockading the German ports ; the English fleet will make a demonstration that will probably produce more sensation in the English parliament than in Germany. It may be as well to say that the English fleet will not be alone in the Baltic ; I learn that the Rumania fleet will also not fail to be present there. By this coincidence of facts the English demonstration will lose mush of its importance, especially as Russia cannot be sus pected of favouring a sudden attack of the Austro- Prnasian squadron upon Copenhagen."

The Pays sums up the intelligence by saying that "it destroys the last hopes of peace." At the Ronne the impression universally prevailed that the adjourned sitting of Saturday (upon which the Moniteur du Soir, with grim irony remarks that it is the thirteenth), is one of form merely, and that the conference will break up at the end of it. Rents fell 10e., both for cash and account, and Mobilier 17fr. We. Rail ways were all from 2fr. 50c. to sc. lower. M. Emile 011ivier was received at Turin as a future minister of the empire—a fact which will not tend to heal the breach between him and his old friends. At the banquet given him by the Turin Chamber of Deputies, IL Alfieri, in propo sing the health of the Emperor of the French, alluded to M. 011ivier as a man who, "after having been a vigilant and austere oensor ' was perhaps destined to become at no distant d a y one of the wisest and most effective councillors in the work of crowning the edifice.' " The Tribunal of Commerce yesterday decided that the acceptor of a forged bill of exchange is bound to pay it to a bond fide endorsee. Messrs. Baring Brothers, of London, lately received from Savannah a bill, purporting to be drawn by MM. La Cruz and Co. upon MM. Fould and Co., of Paris, to the order of M. Carlos Medina. The payee requested the Messrs. Baring to discount the bill and remit the proceeds in gold to Mr. Fitcher, of New York. Messrs. Baring, having first got the bill accepted by Messrs. Fould and Co., sent the sum of 2,500 sovereigns to New York as directed. Before the bill came to maturity MM. Fould and Co. discovered that the drawers' signa ture was a forgery, and on that ground refused to pay it. Thereupon, Megan. Baring brought their action. The court held that Messrs. Baring bad been guilty of no ladies, that the acceptance of Messrs. Fould was to them • sufficient guarantee of the authenticity of the bill, and that it did not now lie in the mouth of MM. Fould to say that it was a forgery as against Messrs. Baring. A decree for payment of principal, interest, and costs was therefore made. The Temps says that Captain Semmes arrived in Paris this morning ; I do not see the news men tioned elsewhere, and I cannot say whether it is true.

The mooed lady who presented herself was the youthful Mies Grace Sharma, who, instead of placing her pone on the salver, 'avowed to the priocesa, and making • low bow, tendered her offering to the royal lady, who smiled at the mistake and would probably have received the purge herself but for the interposition of ore of the members of the committee.
