TUC .Vonoteur annum= a genseel disarmament , by sea and land, and streightway Lard CLARZIOCE P .0.17, on behalf of the Government,proposee a mea sure for increasing the efficiency of the navy. This course, paradoxical only in appearance, is in reality logical, prudent, and pacific. It ia a practical denial of the unbound assumption, encountered is England even more frequently than in Frames, that the oeranic improvement of our belligerent services must necessarily epring from an unworthy distrust of tie nearest and most powerful neighbour. The reform of these 'enlace is a concern far too important to be pursued or relinquished according to the changing aspects of foreign effete.. The canoes which impel as to eerie* the material and personal constitution of the navy are sot exclusively or essentially political. 'racy are to be found in eselcient number, as we sue it candidly and honourably admitted in the last *umber of the Reeme des Deux Mi‘ides, in the noto rious negligence of past years, in the new conditions of naval warfare which have grown up with the use,, extensive ass of steam propulsion, in the int prearaments in marine artillery, and in the universal eserislioe that the expedients by which our fleets were maimed in the time of the last great naval war one no mare be matted to. Three were the mends ea which honourable members on both sides of the House last night &reneged the question et oew Naval Reserve. " Your Majesty peewee in the Merchant Service " elements of naval power, such as no other Govern . meet is the world enjoys." Thee are the words of the COMM IfiSIOWS appointed to consider the beet geode of Manning the Navy. They are an echo of as apparent truism, cm which too many are apt to rely without farther inveetigatiou and inquiry, sad of an asearanee which is too readily entertained by the public, that ander any emergency the require meats of OW ships of war will always be amply sad immediately supplied by the reeourees of the mer cantile marine. It would, of coarse, be idle to dozy that what is now commonly termed the Merobaat Navy cannot bat prove a valuable auxiliary to that of the Queen bat it is a simple delusion to suppose that, neglictcd in time of peace, it can safely be relied on to furnish a sufficient body of trained seamen to man half the Channel fleet on the tint outtreak of war. We mast look to other sup. plies, and must devise some surer remedy for an suit the magnitude of which is admitted on all handy, and increases rather than diminishes with the lapse of years. The proposition which the SECRETARY to the ADMIIZALTY submitted to the House of Commons last night is based on the recommendations of the Royal Commission. It ie proposed to form a reserve faros of 30,000 men. Every man is to be enrolled far Eve years, to receive five pounds per annum, and be called out far drilling twenty-eight days in the year. Garth* these twenty-eight days they will receive the pay of non-continuous service men ac cording to their rating as stamen. At the end of Eve years the men will have the option of retiring from the force, or of enrolling themselves for five years longer. At the end of the ten years they will be eligible for pensions. If the country should be in volved in war, these men will be liable to be called upon to serve in the QUEEN' , service in any part of the world. The country will have a claim on the service of the men for three years dur'ng war, and for two years 'etre on giving them an increase of pay equal to that of continuouu service men. Bo that the Government might count on the service of these mentor tire years. This plan, of course, mast be considered me to a great extent experimental. Mr. LINDSAY, speaking from great experience of the merchant service, think, it will not answer the ex pectations of its authors; while Sir ClisaLes N itstElt no sooner hears of it than he is ready to depart in peace, :convinced that the Admiralty is at lest going the right way to work. That we have considerable lee-way to make up is apparent when we look at what forethought has done in a country where the difficulties to be overcome were much gre►ter. At the present moment the number of French seamen actually afloat or in barracks, ready at mace to be put on board ship, is 25,600, while 15,000 additional could be procured in a fortnight, making • grand total of upwards of 40,000. In a month 12,000 more could be borrowed, partly from the " Inscription " and partly from the " Etcrutement," and in two mouths the same sources would yield 20,000 additional, all, be it remembered, thoroughly efficient, and capable of discharging every duty of men-of-war's men, Thus, in two months from the firing of the first gun, France could command the service' of 72,000 *cornea, every one of whom has previously served for a writs of years on board a vessel of war, hoe been moulded to habits of diact p",ne, and has, moreover, been practised in every variety of naval evolution—a most essential portion of a sesmaii's education, but nevertheless, nowa days, utterly neglected by our authorities. As we recently took occasion to observe, we have now afloat, in every ses. bet 31,400 seamen, end ran hardly venture to sekelete epee Rote this :10,000 reverves from all @mem A large propor tion of three would foe a time be comparatively ve'oriees, an they could only have served previously in merchantmen or coasters. It is calculated that upwards of 46,000 British seamen are receiving per manent employ on board American and other foreign vseeelr, and it is not impassible that those among them who have not been naturalised and habituated to sew associations may, in the hour of England's need, return to fight on her behalf; but this is a' moat unreliable and uncertain prop to treat to, aid ought cot to enter into a prudent calculation. Te bring even our available reserves forward would to. flair* time and no small expeeihrors; and it is pro bable that at the end of two month•, after straining every nerve, we should not be able to collect 60,000 able seamen. Io round oumben,then,the probabilities are, that the French would be able to outnumber as be some 10,000 or 12,000 men. There are many who will deem due ►s isoignifkent prepondi ranee, aid who, having regard to the teelticiest crews es board French ships at the latter end of the war (1811-14), will conclude that we can well aillbrd to contend spinet far heivier odds. We must, however, not lose sight of the important fact, that Bridal' ships would, in the event of • war, have to bia scattered over every distant see, while the French could concentrate all their energies upon a comparatively narrow Held of operations. It is obvious, then, that with fewer seamen and a neces sarily much larger fleet, or rather with many fleets, each vessel moat be short of her proper complement. and would have to fight at a serous disadvan tage. That the disadvantage would be more than atoned for by the indomitable sturdiness and gal lantry of both officers and men we fully believe; but, is it fair that all this unflinching valour and endurance should be thus immoderately tested I' THE EXPRESS, SATURDAY EVENING, AUGUST 6, Mt EU Com OSBORNE, Avotor 6.

I find no confirmation of a statement in the Nerd that on the 14th the Emperor would go as far as the Bastille to meet the army of Italy. The news is in itself improbable. That the Emperor as the con quering general of the conquering army should have made his official entry into Paris at their head would have been quite natural, and was entirely expected ; bat if, for sufficient reasons, that project has been abandoned, the half measure of going to meet the troops at the Bastille would . be a shock to etiquette, and at the same time an affront to the Faubourg St. Antoine. I have no doubt that the Emperor, as I announced some time since, will take up a position at the foot of the column in the Place Vendome, and see the whole army file peat. Immense preparations are making for this reception, which will be very splendid. Seats will be erected all round the place for the Senate, Corps Legislatif, Council of State, Ministers, Ambassadors, Am., and an ample canopy or eelarium, such as was used for the games of Rome in the time of the Emperors, will protect the spectators from the glared the sun. Several triumphal arches are already in course of erection on the Boule vards. One is to represent the cathedral of Milan. Very deep holes are being excavated on either side of the Rue de la Pair for the reception of double rows of Venetian poles to be decorated with flags. A number of pleasure trains will bring up to Paris great numbers of visitors from the province', bat it is feared that those who live along the Marseilles line will not participate in the benefit of the ar rangement, that railway being likely to be exclu sively occupied with the transport of troops. The news which I have already sent that the Emperor is going to the Chilons camp, is coufirmed by the Pays, which announces that he will be there ow Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday next. His Majesty will on this occasion distribute the rewards of August 16 to the force which he will review. M. de Bourqueney I Paris to-night for Zurich, accompanied by M. Armand, an attache to the Ministry for Foreign Affairs. Workmen are now bag in the vaults of Bt. Denis preparing a sepulchre for the remains of Napoleon L, which will certainly be removed from the In valides, although the day for the disinterment is not yet fixed. I presume that Marshal Prince Jerome, who at one time declared that the tomb in the Invalid's, of which he is governor, should never be disturbed as long as he lived, is now less positive in his opposition. The last resting place of the great Napoleon among the bones of the kings of Franos will not, however, after all, be the pre cise spot which he had selected for himself, and which he is represented pointing to in the well known glass painting in one of the cathedral win dows. Louis XVIII. is buried in that vault, and the Emperor, whose great object in interring his uncle in the royal basilica is to teach the public to regard him ea the legitimate founder of a new line of monarchs, cannot in consistency desecrate the tomb of a legitimate Bourbon. The Patric announce., from Toulon, that all the sailors of the squadron who have served the regulated time on board men-of•war are to be allowed to go to their home.. Letters from Florence contain the expected and very good news that Garibaldi is about to assume the command of the Tuscan army. The Ceur►ie► des eflpes, an ultramontane journal which has taken a prominent part in the intrigue for the an nexation of Savoy to France, has been compelled to suspend its publication. At the Bourse very little business is still done, but the Rents was very firm to-day. It rose 45c. for cash and 40c. for account, closing at 69fr. 75c. and 69fr. 98c. Mobilier rose 21fr. 95c. The Or leans railway rose flfr. 76c.; Lyonr, 7fr. 60c. ; and the other lines about 2fr. 50c. Count de Montalemberee brother, Lieutenant- Colonel de Montalembert, of the Lancers of the Guard, has been appointed to the command of the lot African Cbasseurs, vice Colonel do Salignac- Fenelon, promoted to the rank of General of Brigade. Some of the provincial paper., acting on a hint from Paris, offer a sort of apology for a recent (real or supposed) anti-English demonstration at Mar seille', of which, they say, the Presse of Vienna has made " quite an affair." At a place of public entertainment the famous air of Charles VI., " Jame* jamais, en France I'Aoglais ne regners,' , was sung with such marked enthusiasm that several loglish people who were present thought fit to leave the assembly. It is now urged, by way of explanation or excuse, that in every country there are national airs, such as God save the King in England, the Rens des Vaches in Switzerland, Riego's Hymn in Spain, the Conquer ing King in Prussia, the Song of the Emperor in Austria, &c., &c.—that all these songs stimulate the national sentiment, and that to expect such " mo mentary effervescence*" of popular life to be put down would be to desire what is impossible. This defence is beside the only point in issue. Nobody in England wants to see any popular manifestation repressed ;' on the contrary, we English would be very glad to see much less repression in France than there it, and much more mope for the free ex pression of public feeling. But it was lately alleged in a Marseille, correspondence published in a London journal that the manifestation in question wee got up by authority, and that policemen in plain clothes set the example of singing the old war-song. That is the only part of the business which it would be desirable to have contradicted, if it be untrue. That has a serious aspect ; but otherwise our French friends are quite welcome to proclaim publicly in Lydian, or any other measure, their determination that the English shall not reign over them, as often as the reiteration of this trite sentiment can give them any pleasure. We have no more right, anti certainly less inclination, to complain of their so doing than they would have to remonstrate against a representation of the battle of Waterloo at Astley's. Prince Napoleon left Paris yesterday morning for Cherbourg, to visit the port and the different ships in the roadstead. His imperial highness is mom gaoled by a Russian officer and two aides-de-camp. A communication from Bayonne says: The Southern Railway compaay has determined to open almoet lonnedistely the railway from Mont•cle.

A telegraphic line is to be established between Tarbes and St. Sauveur, on account of their Majes ties' approaching visit to the latter plate. PRUSSIA. Advice, from Berlin of the 4th instant say 3 The news of the dissolution of the French Army of Observation has produced a very favourable effect hare. Prussia will at once countermand the concen tration of troops on the Rhine. According to a communication made to Baron de &Wl:ors, Russian Ambassador at Berlin, who re turned to hie post yesterday, the Emperor Alexander will visit OW court in September. He will fetch the Empress Dowager, and go with her to Warsaw to attend the grand maximums which are to take place near that etty. . • . Prussia is 'about to send some vessels of war to Japan to open commercial communications with that country. The frigate Thetis and the corvette Arcona have been selected for the pupae. They will leave towards the end of the month, and re main absent for three years. A councillor of the Prussian Legation will accompany the expedition, to carry on negotiations with the Japanese govern ment. A Barba letter in the Swabian Mercury says: The chances in the organisation al the army cannot lir made without the assent of the Chambers. The following are the principal features of the reform which la in contem plation: The obligation for serving will be spin imposed on every one. The duration of attire service is to be fixed at three years, with one year in the reserve. The four years following will form the first ban of the landwehr, which will not comprise men upwards of 29 years of age instead of 33 as at present, or married men. The next four years will form the sewed ban of the limdwihr, which will not go be yond 33 yearn In this manner the defensive forces of Prllll.lll will be much Increased, without throwing any burden on the finances. With 17,000,000 of inhabitants she may raise as stay of 800,000 men. AUSTRIA. The Maaiteur de la Flail* publishes a letter from the coast of Friuli, which says: The pewit has been belied with the greatest satisfaction ell along the coast, and especially at Trieste. That port, not withstanding the Bag of the German Confederation which Boated on its walls as a sign of neutrality, suffered much from the war, and the armistice signed by Marshal Vaillast and Baron tie Hess was received with the almost delight. One of its claws*, restoring the free navlgadon of the Adriatic, showed its import►nce. The very day after the happy saws, upwards of thirty vowels left the port.

THE DUCHIES. A Paris letter, in the Independance of Brussels. says Count de Relen, who had an Interview two days ago with the Marquis Dabormida at Turin, is rated to be of opinion that he will not find in the Piedmontese government the support which it had been hoped he would obtain. His mission, it may be remembered is to prepare, by ratans., conciliatory the populations of the Italian states to consent to the return of their sovereigns, subject to the condition of the Inter makleg oonceseloo, more or less liberal.

Here, where we are not per mitted to express our fret thought*, or to prey publicly favour hollow citizens who have died by the side of your comrades, it is very sweet to be able to join our prayers to yours. and to shed • tear on the tomb of your brothers in arms. We bad hoped to celebrate fresh victories with you, and to commemorate together the complete enfranchisementof Italy; but, though that noble object which your magnani mous Emperor proposed to himself has not been attained, the generous blood of Frame, which has mingled with the blood of Italy. will not have been shed in vain. Sooner or later, the natural alliance of the Latin natfooa, which has been reccwalesd by the Emperor, and cemented by that noble blood, will metainly bring about the complete independence of Italy.

A most severe judgment of the military commis sion appointed by the Papal government to inquire into the outbreak at Perugia, and which has con demned by default seven inhabitants of that city to death for having taken part in the late events, is indignantly branded with reprobation by the &eel' : The gnat lon of life which hes already taken place at Perugia (it says) don not satiety Cattiest Antonelli ; be must hen noteoces pronounced againet those left alive.

Upon this chimney was lied, some throe or four years age, a lightning conductor (the chimney booing a short time before hewn struck with lightning), but the action of the &mama gave from the ebioitey having eaten away all the projecting portion of the conductor, the pro prietor (Mr. Corbett)) engaged a person from Sheffield (Mr. Brown) to undertake the took, which he has just cleverly amornpliched. The proprietor being unwafts to atop the works it watt necessery to ascend to the top of the chimney by rbe exterior. and accordingly Air. Brows pre pared 24 ladders, each 21 feet in length, and having placed ens in position at the font of the chimney, spliced the second to it by ropes, at the same time securing it from motion by pins Seed in the chimney. In this way each of the 24 ladders was raised. The chief difficulty, however, was in fining and wending the last ladder, there to ing • cornice at the top of the chimney projecting three pet six kitty*. However, this difficulty we. cleverly overcome, end the ingenious sod venturesome contractor having ascended .newt in safety on the top and renewed the lop uf the lightning conductor.
