A SPECIAL EDITION el the .4 EXPRESS," containing the results of the day's Races, is pub lished every evening &fin the Sporting Season, at six o'clock. Tun Address of M. DE PERSIONT to the members of the Council Omura of the Loire will be read with great interest on both sides the Channel. IC Di P!LSIGMY has two strong claims to atten tion. He is not only one of the moat sincere and enthusiastic supporters of the EMPEROR, but he is the devoted personal adherent of Louts NA PoLLoN. What he says, therefore, of the Empire may be taken as the candid expression of real conviction and intimate knowledge. He wee Ambassador from France to Great Britain during the eventful crisis of the Cotwpiracy Bill, and returned to Paris ere the excitement of that crisis had subsided. What he says, therefore, of the Alliance may fairly be re garded as the testimony of a witness who km, at all events, had the best means of knowing the troth. That portion of his address which concerns the Empire, its rise, its development, and its future, has a more direct interest for France than it has for this country. With regard to the Empire we have nothing new to say. As long as France acquiesces in it, we at least are bound to accept it. It is • fact in politics, like any other fact, which we politically are only ooneerned with in its direct bearing on our own national interests. It is for France to protest, if protest he necessary, not for England. We are not, indeed, obliged to accept every theory of the Empire which its advocates choose to set before us. If we are expressly invited into the arena of opinion, we are free to avow—we are bound to avow—one real opinions. M. DI Peastost has a perfect right to ventilate his theory that the task of the NAPOLEONS is "not to destroy ancient liberties, " but to consolidate new ones ;" ha has a perfect right to esprote his conviction that " the " Goyeelr!lent tt NdrOLLON 111. is organised I. " essitedaass wit► t►e principles and ideas of the Revolution of 1789." We, on the other hand, have an equal right to ask, •ot without surprise, what and where these new liberties are which it is the task of the NAPOLEONS to oonsolidstei and in what sense the Imperialism of 1838 can be regarded as an organisation of the principles of 1789 ? So again M. DE PIMIGNY is pleased to prophesy that " True' " Liberty will thrive all the more vigorously, because " it Is cultivated in • prepared and tempered atmo " sphere." Our experience would teach us precisely the reveres; all that we have learnt from history tells us that this plant is no pony exotic, but a hardy native, whose growth is never more vigorous than when it is exposed freely to the autempered atmo sphere of open discussion and the unrestrained play of popular emotions. Oa these and kindred points we of OMEN differ utterly and irreconcileably with M. one PZILZICNE. But the *Stir after all is primarily a matter for the Freoeh people. If they prefer " the prepared and " tempered atmosphere" of Imperialism to Liberty, in the English sense of the term, it is no business of ours to Interfere with them. It is more to the purpose to note the admissions that M. DE PZESIONT makes is this part of his address as toe portion of the Imperial Institutions, which bs t alisost ventures to premeoess defeetive. " It is teas; he is so good as to state, "theft " the liberty of the puss—which either vivifies Of " kills all other libertiss—is very materially ow. " (Need by the system of warnings." There is something positively refreshing in this. A man in the vigour of existence is soddenly turned off the improved drop at Newgate, or deprived of his head under the guillotine. Mauch a one let it be said henceforth, that his powers of life are "very mate " 'tally modified " by the system of public executions. But, on this part of the case, M. DZ PIRSIGNT makes au important admission. " Aesaretily," he says, "no " one can regret more than I do myself that, " owing to the present system, the inflames of the " press upon public opinion is insufficient either to "enlighten the Government or to prevent private " interests, under the masks of public interests, from " taking the name of the ENPILLOR in vain." This is but an Imperialistic way of expressing a fact, the existence of which constitutes one of the principal dangers of the Imperial system. With the higher literature and intellect of the country in a state of antagonism, and with the press powerless for en lightenment, though powerful for incendierism, the dynasty or the Boyar/ axis can hardly be regarded as having struck firm sad vital roots into the under sea of French society. Let us turn, however, from M. Di PHILBIGNY'II lucubration* oo the Empire, to his remarks on the English alliance. It is quite true, as he declaims that the crime of the 14th of January was at GIMP stigmatised by the loudly expressed execration of the English people. LOMB NAPOLEON sever so narrowly mimed being generally popular in this country as is the few days that immediately fol lowed the attempt of °mixt. What suddealy changed the current of the national sentiment? We believe that M. Di PAILMONT gives the true and Meat waver. It was the "palatal utettisbassot • which pommeled the English people at finding that they were amisamieratood in Francs—at perceiving (we will site M. DX PLUTO:WS own words) "a disposi " tioa on the part of France to render England " responsible for the attempt of the 14th, and to " hold her in snapieion." When, in addition to this, the English people saw an attempt made by their own Minister, to alter the immemorial safeguards of English freedom in order to appease an irritation which they knew to be unfounded, and to allay a suspicion which they felt to be unreasonable, then the spirit of the nate. was stirred within it; the po pular indignation swept all before it. A Go;flawent was annihilated—an alliance was endangered. Now that all is over, we may tenni* admit than the Emperor of the FEINCU has ilipbrAittlesider- ' able sagacity in discerning the true canes and nature d the English manifestation, and considerable firm in repressing the impetuosity of French resent pm. At was a crisis out of which unwary or unscru- Governments, on either side of the Channel, 'sight without difficulty have manufactured a war—a consideration which may be commended to those who persist in thinking that the EXPIIIOII still harbours belligerent designs against this country. That the crisis has pawed away, not only without arty . _ momentary rupture of the Alliance, but with as increased sense in both nations of the value and neces sity of preserving it, is unquestionably in great part owing to the tact and firmness of the Emperor of the FPANCII. Thus much it is due to truth to acknowledge —thus much and something more. Rulers, even the most despotic, are in modern times, either consciously or unconsciously, the representatives of those they rale. The great popular instinct—the " common " sense of most "—is after all, more or less, the law of the modern world. It is, we firmly believe, in obedience to such an instinct that the Governments of both countries have acted in their recent manifes- tations of renewed cordiality. We agree with M. DE PERSIGNT in this--" that the new inatincta of " England carry her as naturally to a union with " France as formerly they promoted a separation:" he is right when he asserts that " the great English " public sincerely desire the friendship of Francs e and we are willing to believe that he is equally cor rect in declaring that reciprocal sentiments of good will quite as strongly animate the French. That these feelings of amity may daily increase in warmth and strength most be the ardent desire of every wall .wisher to his country and mankind. hk THE EXPRESS, FRIDAY EVENING, AUGUST 27, - 1858.

This morning:Mae isene4, the eleventh report of ilre Cidannisiosere on the Flatlets, whioh we .1111140131 : " We, the commiationers appointed by your Majdtty for the purpose of inquiring whether advantage might not be taken of the rebuilding of your Majesty's pelsoe at Westminster —wherein yoariblajasty'e parliament is wont to assemble— for the purpose el promoting and encouraging the flee arta In your Majesty's United Kingdom, and to what manner an object of se Much importance might be most effectually promoted, bag leave to report to your Majesty the progress of the works recommended by us to be undertakes. In the House of Limb, the series of eighteen metal statues of barons sad prelates—representing the principal personages who sinned Magas Charta—has been completed; amen of such seem having been added since we submitted our Mat report, bearing date the Bth of July, 1854. Al St. Stephen's Hall stands on the spot where the House of Commas was, during many centuries, in the habit of assembling, we were, from the first, of opinion that it should be adorned with statues of men who rose to eminence by the eloquence and abilities which they displayed in that house. Twelve personages, selected on this principle, were accordingly named in our fourth report, dated the 25th of April, 1846—Belden, Hampden, Lord Falkland, Lord Clarendon, Lord Sentare, Sir Robert Walpole, Lord Chatham, Lord Mansfield, Burka Fox, Pitt, and Grattan. The marble shams of those personages have now bees completed; the statue of Seddon by John Henry Foley, 8.A.; that of Hampden by the same artist; that of Lord Falkland by Mr. John Bell; that of Lord Clarendon by William Calder Marshall, LA.; that of Lord Somers by the same artist ; that of Sir Robert Walpole by Mr. John Bell; that of Lord Chatham by Patrick Mg:towel; R.A.; that of Lord Mansfield by Edward Hodges Bally, R.A.; that of Barks by- Mr. William Theed; that of Fox by Edward Hodges Belly, B.A. ; that ef Pitt by Patrick 111L.Dowall, LA.; sod that of Granite by Mr. John Edward Crew. The above worts are plated in St. Stephen's Hall, when we have been pleased to observe that they hare ap posereo to form objects of great interest and attraction to the public. In our lag report we proposed to commission Darrel Manias, R.A., to paint a subject in fresco is the apartment called the Painted Comber or Con /ammo, Hall ; but SOON difficulties having been found to Mist with regard to the lighting of some oon partoinots in that locality, the work was postponed, and the solid any at his own request, finally released front such saderteklag. A grant of public money, amounting to 1,6001., which had been voted by *clement for this object, area, with the enaisat of the Lords Commissioners of your Ma jesty's Tertiary, appropriated to the painting of twaoty eight whole length portraits of personages connected with the Tudor family, to be placed in the apartment called the Prinoetchamber, as proposed in the appendix to our seventh report. Of such portraits, executed by or nadir the direc tion of Mr. Richard Birchen, fifteen have now been ems pistol. Being taken from authentic sources, and executed in methods fitted to reproduce the style of the origins! works, they at once serve a decorative purpose, and constitute trust worthy resemblances of the historical personages represented. In our ninth report we had proposed that twelve com partments in the same room should be filed with metal meta from models of bas-reliefs, to be provided by a oompe tent sculptor. The subjects proposed—elating to events corresponding with the periods of oar history to which the before-named portraits belong are enumerated in the appendix to our seventh report. The preparation of the models referred to wag ultimately committed to Mr. William Theed. Eleven models, the design and execution of which are highly approved by us, have been completed by him ac cordingly; and ten of such models, can In metal by Mere. Elkington, Mason, and Compcoy, of Birmingham, bare been fixed in their places in the Farm's-chamber. Referring t..) the same locality, we stated in our last report that John Gibson, R.A., bad been comtniesipned by as to execute a dates of your Majesty with Imes of Justice and Clemency stels old iden audit& bmerellee ea the principal pedestal, to be in the rases es the earth side of the apartment. lidleil ellsemperMisenes have been completed and P .

PRESS FROM PA: ova mint 0014ANUONDICIR PARIS, TIIIIISDAT B,wico. It is a curious fact that Count de Persigny's important speech, long telegraphic summaries of which appear in the Word and Itsdepeadartee of Eruseels, is not so much as mentioned by any Paris morning journal. The only evening paper which allude, to it is the Courrier de Paris, and that quotes the first part only in which there is nothing about the English alliance, and it does not, say whether it intends to publish the remainder to It is impoodble to suppose that all the Parisian journals could have simultaneously over looked the Memorial de la Loire, in which this speech occupied four conspicuous columns ;of large print, and was announoed by the editor as one destined to make an immense sensation both in France and Europe. The inference therefore is almost irresistible that the journals must either have been warned that the speech must not be cir culated for the present, or that the instinct of self preservation told them that there was in it matter dangerous to be published without the unction of authority. There is no doubt a patronising tone about the speech, a sort of ego et rex new air which, if not previously authorised, may well produce some astonishment in the highest quarter. M. de Per 'ivy evidently stands forward as one of the prin cipal founders of the Empire, and certain passages of his discourse are open to the con struction that he thinks his counsels have not always been attended to so much as they ought to have been. Important as his speech is, if we suppose it to have been composed in consultation with the Emperor, it is infinitely more so if it proceeds entirely from his own initiative. On the Bret hypothesis, we have only to admire the unusual perepicuity and eloquence with which a courtier expounds the already declared policy of his master, but in the second we are irresistibly led to conjecture that this old and faithful councillor of the Emperor must fear that his Majesty is in danger of being led by other counsels to follow a policy different from that which he so emphatically recom mends. A secondary observation to be made upon the speech, bat one necessary to prevent misconception of the working of the French constitution, is that it was delivered coram non judiee. It was expressly laid down when the Councils General were estab lished upon their present footing that they are not political bodies. They have only a right to express wishes relating to the special wants of their own departments, and any record of their proceedings concerning general politics is liable to be quashed. It is tree that in practice this rule is relaxed in favour of individuals supposed to beak. in the sun shine of the court. But it must not be thought that in France any member of a Council General can go and make a speech about internal politico just u a member of the English parliament talks to his constituents. The prolonged silence of the Paris journals with regard to the bombardment of Jeddah, has led to the inference that the government most be brood ing over the matter, and has not yet given its organs a key note. It often happens in parallel cases that the result of imperial cogitation first peeps out in a corner of some obscure provincial journal which would certainly never venture to express any opinions of its own upon an important political question. Revelations in such unlooked for quarters are more than usually frequent at this time of the year, when ministers, councillors of state, presidents of councils general, and other high functionaries, are scattered about the departments taking their vaca tion. At Bayonne at the present moment there must be confidential servants of the Emperor making pre parations for his reeeption at Biarritz, and from some ' of them, if not from the prefect, who is, I believe, a special favourite, has doubtless emanated the follow ing paragraph in tht Messager de Bayonne, from which I think it safe to infer that the French go vernment has determined not to take umbrage at the energetic use made by Captain Pullen of the Cyclops' cannon : Has M. Salotier yet left Fromm ? We will not venture to say that ha h••• and we should not be surprised to learn that the bombardment of Jeddah having necessitated some modification in his instructions, the departure of oar extra ordinary oomminsioner had bean delayed for two or three days. Apropos of this subject. a Brussels journal laments bitterly that the Cyclops should have acted without waiting for the arrival of the French forces, and sees lathe haste of the English a 000firmation of its doubts as to tbu,dnoerity and solidity of the alliance. We do not think that these regrets are shared by the French government, or that the Incident is regarded in this light in our politica circles. The news of the bombardment of Jeddah was imbed for here from one moment to another, for the English govern ment lost no time in informing tie ally that the Cyclops had received orders to act with promptitude and severity, and the French government could not possibly disapprove • resolu tion the object of which was to obtain an instalment of satideetion. What has just passed at Jeddah is net an sot contrary to the anianos, but one of the first ads of the Olathe. The entire eo-eperatlon of Femme is to seem and that co-operation trill be secant plished *sly ant deliberstely, as soon as M. Emmet arrives en the spot If the Individuals who have hem =am OM really the raft, parties, we cannot fan to I, for Y. Ithsema, who saw the murderers so neer that he will be sure to rewspates them, will be able to eve reliable evidence in the inquiry about to be opened.

Mr. Wainwright, on being recalled and re examined by the commissioner, stated that it was in the middle of July that he went down to Wales to make the inquiries of which he had spoken In his evidence, and he communicated the result at the latter end of July to Mr. Ruck. It was on the 28th otilay that Mr. Ruck gave him instmtions to go to Wale,. Beery time he taw Mr. Rack between that time and the middle of July he pressed him to make an investigation; sad the moment be had communicated the result to him the delosioas aimed to have vanished. _ Mr. Serjeant Petaredorff then summed up the case for Mr. Ruck. He said, at the close of the evidence foe the defame, that his own inclination was to rest the case of his client on the concurreet testimony of the eight eminent medical men who were examined on the previous day, to the effect that Mr. Rock was now perfectly sane and fit to discharge the ordinary duties of life ; but custom required that he should avail himself of the privilege of addressing the jury. He then commented on the " cam" book of Dr. Stillwell, which, he mid, evinced great carelessness on the part of that gen tleman. It contained a groundless statement that Mr. Rack was subject to hereditary insanity. The next statement was equally unfounded—namely, that Mr. Rock had been guilty of great violence; and further it was untruly alleged that ha had locked up his wife's cousin and attempted to shoot her. Had there been the smallest particle of truth in these allegations evidence in support of them would of course have been adduced. The sole explanation of these misrepresenta dons was that the cause of these delusion was, in fact, in temperance, and that insanity arising from that source wee generally curable in a few weeks. Mr. Rack showed through out • degree of self-control which, under the circumstances, was quite remarkable. The moment his wife had any doubts as to his sanity, she ought to have emended his own re latives. Instead of that she had recourse to a country apothecary, and on his authority, and that of Dr. Couolly, sent him to a lunatic asylum. When he had entered the asylum nothing whatever was done to remove his &liaises. Rim only companion when he was out walking was that coarse, vulgar, arrogant sort of man who was examined on the previous day, and who spoke almost In a patronising way of having taken him to see his aunt. As regarded Mr. Rack's statement, that his coejugal life was not a happy one, he contended that it was perfidy rational and perfectly oocsleteut with undisputed facts. In conclusion, he called upon the jury to declare that Mr. Rack had been for a long period improperly detained at Moororoft, and that be ought to be immediately restored to the exercise of freedom. Mr. M. Chambers then replied on the whole case on be half of the petitioner, Mrs. Ruck. He said both the learned counsel who had addressed the jury on the other aide had almost entirely abstained from entering into the facts of the ease, on which the decision of the jury meat rest, and had presented to them topic* which could not, and ought not to guide their judgment. He (Mr. Chambers) concurred in the remarks which had appeared in the newspapers, end In which the necessity was insisted upon of throwing a pro per protection over penes charged with insanity. B. perfectly agreed that a man ought not to be deprived of bis liberty for any mere enentrioity. But if there was any nee troverey between the system of private asylums and that of placing lunatics separately under the care of medical men, be had only to say that the Commissioners of Lunacy had reported unfavourably against the theory supported by Dr. Johnson and other gentlemen. It was quite a mistake on the pert of his learned friend, therefore, to my that the oom miesioners bad attacked private asylums; what they really censured was that very system of single patients, which had been advocated by the medical whimsies on the other side. As for Dr. Stillwell and Moorcroft Asylum, he considered that a more excellent young man, or a better !ZOOM of the kind, could not have been introduced to Use no tios of the jury, end the more the establishment was inquired Into the greater would be the admiration it would excite. A great portion of the speeches of his learned friends had m imed to matters that were utterly irrelevant to the inquiry; bat it was a well-known rule of oratory when you had got • week cause to endeavour to realised Mom who had to decide, and induce them to travel abroad from the nal point at issue. The discussion in the public tonne's bad been carried on sometimes* with ability and moderation, and sometimes with a great deal of nominee ; but he would take his leave of this part of the subject, nag of nurse, abusing the public journals, for he knew the conse quences to public men if he took such • course. (A laugh.) Me denied that there bad been anything in the treatment of Mr. Rock that in the slightest degree savant:odd unkindness or unnecessary restraint. An attempt had been made to show that Dr. Stillwell had not subjected his patient to any medical treatment. His learned friend had asked that " rat tling chap," who had been the favourite boy of his uncle, and who now lived upon his aunt—(laughter)--whether Mr. Mr. Ruck had ever had any medidne f The witness 'said ha had bad nothing but an emetic, wbicb bad been put into his ten, but which another pnikonsa got by mistake. Theme waa a great laugh at that, bat was it fair f Why hied Ms learned friends not crow-examined by. Stillwell himself on the subject? In point of fat they had not tasked the dolor a single question about it The whole cam on the other *Me rafted upon personal Mimes. Per instance, Mr. Thurston, who was perhaps as vespeobible • witness as bad ever oome forward, bad been rudely stigma- deed—ln feet it Mr. Ruck Mil not imam his language the other day to Mr. Thurston would have been wholly anima tillable. Another witness had been called Mr gamiest Ur to Warne. The course which had been taken with regard to Mn. Buck had been meet unfair. The jury had seen the way in which that poor lady had given her evidenos. She had told them that her busked's conduct bad been most stsellemete towards her, end they had not cress-ezamined bra en that point; but at the but moment his learned friends had endea voured to throw doubts upon her statemen‘ for the pumas of supporting Mr. Ruck's warmest that he bed besamehappy with her. He contended that there was not the dieltern ground for impugning her conduct in reference to the tranamtiona which had been brought into this inquiry. He ani madverted upon the comae whiob had been pursued with re. geed to the eminent men who had been ammited is this mat Mr. Wainwright bad tutored, or at halt lustros*, Mr. Rack not to open his mouth to Dr. Conolly, Dr. Sutherland, and DS, Winslow, sad one remit of that had been to canes the enormous expense of the pr sent Ininlry. Thor mamma meld have seamed to teheigateent anything; and if they bed been Whirl that is had esomend, the patient would at once have been relieved.

(leper, a labourer, was charged with having stolen a pear, value one penny, the property of Messrs. Adams and Co., Padding-law, fruit meruhants. The foreman to the prosecutors said that yesterday after noon he saw the prisoner, who was waiting at the warehouse door far some fruit, go up to a Cabe which was full of pears, take one out, and rat it in his pocket. The pear, which was a very large one, owing to the cheap ness of fruit at the present time wee only worth ld., but, • few weeks hence it might be worth ed., and it was by no means as uncommon case for a pear to be worth Is. From time to time numerous robberies were oommitted at the warehouse, by men like the prisoner, and in order to protect themselves for the future, the prosecutors had caused the prisoner to be given into custody. Lord Mayor—What have you to say, prisoner Prisoner —Why, my lord, Its all spite on his part. We had a quarrel abet some pine apple' that he had to deliver to me two months ago, and he has tried to serve me out ever since. As to this case, what he says is quite false, for I picked the pear off the floor, and never went near • case of fruit at all. Witmer —My lord, I maw him take the pear out of the case, and, as a proof of this fact I may mention that the pears are arranged in Wars, with shaft of paper between each, sad whenever one is taken out therefore it must be missed directly if the oar is uncovered. Prisoner—l say I picked up the pear from the floor. Lord Mayor—But he swears that you took it from the Prisoner—Verr well then, I'll swear that I did not. Lord Mayor—No, no, we cannot allow you to swear. Prisoner—But I will. And seizing up a testament that laid within his reach, he solemnly swore to the truth of his denial. The prosecutor, however, still adhered to Ms statement, and threatened to produce evidence of a similar robbery com mitted by the prisoner • few days previously, upon which the latter admitted that be did take the pear from the °us, as thy withess had stated, adding that the pears belonged to • person for whom he worked, and who permitted him to take a pear or so when he was thirsty. The Lord Mayor seat him to hard labour fur seven days. BOW •STREBT. OBTAINING 201.

Auguste Finish., • French clerk in the establishment of the prosecutors, stated that a few days since the prisoner called at Meagre. Bull and Wilson's and handed hist a letter, written in French, and purporting to own. from Mr. Sala, of Turin, • merchant with whom the prosecutors had business transactions. The writing so much reseritiled that of Mr. Sala that witness had no &Olt of if, being genuine. He showed it to the prose cutort by whose direction tritium decirod the prisoner to call agaid the next day. The letter in question requested the firm to pay the bearer 201. to their account. The prisoner called, as appointed, and the more y was paid to him ; but ha subsequent correspondence with Messrs. Sala, it was ewer- Mined that no authority had been given for the payment, and that the letter was a forgery. A commercial traveller proved that the prisoner was for merly a Meek in Mr. Sala's employ, but had been dismissed. Mr. Henry KM It would be neceseary for Mr. Sala to at tend, and therefore remanded the case for • weak. SOUTHWARK. IMPORTANT TO PUBLICANS.
