WE hare heard with sane anxiety of late, that acts of insubordination bare occurred ea hoard son than ono British man-of war on the Home statism. Several most unwonted and unwarrantable breaches of diacipline are reported. Mutiny in the British Navy is happily so rare ea to be almost incredible, except on the supposition, which we are lath to entertain, that whe it happens, real, though exceptional, grievances do 'lint. It may easily be imagined that the happiness of a ship's company as board • man-of-war ia very much at the doctorial of the exceptive officers, especially of the captain. He can, if he pleases, with little difficulty convert his ship into a "hell afloat;" he may, by • leery and fretful impatience, incur the hatred of every soul under his command. An in tolerable burlesque of rightful severity may be exer cised without incurring the displeasure or even coming to the knowledge of the Admiralty. It is well known in every service, that subordinates md doco obtain much benefit or advance their tatanda by briaging a superior officer to • court-martlal, What chance, then, would a blue-jacket have of righting himself before a tribunal composed of men who look upon themselves as infallible—who regard any murmur against their authority as a crime little leas than treason, if not closely allied to blasphemy P On the other hand, • British sailor, with &D IM waywardness, his eccentricities, and his prejudices, is usually endowed with • fair share of commas eenae, and has a keen appreciation of injostios. Oar tan are rarely known to From law, bows. cr warm, which bob their Wrosigth to norm Any amount of toil, privation, and hardship they will submit to without murmur, if there be but an apparent necessity for its endurance ; but can enrprise be felt that even their ordinarily docile natures should rebel against petty worrying and more vexatious caprice? We have too much reason to fear that the service is not half as popular as it de serves to be, and that even at this moment there is difficulty in obtaining men of the else required for ships of war. It is the old, old story; many ships that have been commissioned for weeks, are filling up their complements by tardy driblets. Even in the Channel and the Mediterranean squadrons certain ships are short-handed, not to mention them upon more distant stations. Rumours hare gone abroad that unnecessary harshness of treatment, and a too frequent recurrence of corporal punishment. are to ;blame for these deficiencies, and when once this belief has gained ground it is hopeless to expect good men to ship. There is not only the American Navy open to them, but there is oar own merchant service, in which, in spite of many draw backs and disadvantages, the duty is less irksome, and the restraint leas tedious and precis, With regard to the degrees of facility in obtain ing seamen for particular men-of-war, much will always depend upon the character of the cap tain. Oat who has acquired the reputation of • martinet, and is noted for " hazing," or for flogging, will seldom succeed in procuring any but the refuse of the port at which he may be stationed. In vain may he hold out the most tempting bait Jack will shake his head and go his way, preferring either a merchant skipper or a captain with a name more in accordance with his own notions of what • captain should be. Liberty to go ashore is one of the articles of a seaman's faith. It is a source of grumbling not altogether unnatural, and almost inevitable, when a ship is kept for any length of time at anchor within sight of shore, at any particular port. Want of occupation will engender as much mischief on board a line-of-battle ship ea elsewhere. We have heard • Ore, and again the disastrous results that might and in all probability would ensue were a half-trained I ship's company to be brought suddenly into actios. 1 Our Channel Squadron at this moment does not posse one ship too many even for a peace estab- • figment, considering the aspect of the political horiton nor are the crews of several ships in that But at all too proficient in their dation, while as regards anything like naval evolutions, they seem to be es occasional as grand reviews at Aidershott. Why, let as ask, with all the humility of lands ow—why, in the name of all that is rational, should any ship whatever be suffering the obvioui effects of inactivity, when so much im portant work is to be doe, so many various duties to be mastered, and not even the wisest amongst us can tell how soon they may have to be discharged under all the stern exigencies of actual warfare It really seems incomprehensible how summer after MINIM is allowed to glide away, without any thing being done to practise our naval officers and their crews in naval evolutions, and in those tactics without which it is impossible that the individual vessels of any squadron should act in concert, or any useful combination be effected. How is it that the meet important branch of an effuse's edneenien is thus wantemly neglected.? By what mesas is he expected to acquire the requisite profession skill? or rather, in what way is the want of it to he applied? Our neighbours screw the Channel, wondering at our supine indifference in these respects, are far from neglecting to keep their ships of war in constant exercise. They here throughout the year one or two squadrons Aut, premising oder every variety of weather, ender canvas as will as under steam, every parable evolution, sod those who ►ave had opportanities of witnemiag their perfarmances can attest to the surprising smartness of the handling, and the admirable serving of the guns. Eves the Hessians are not bahindhand, and by the simple expedient of a "distance line" and buoy attached to sack vessel, every ship of a *quadri:lo keeps the position reigned to her with the preciaiaa of a well Dallied horseman in a line of cavalry.

PARIS, 6Onn►T WIZAI24O. It appears from the Moniteur that the triumphal entry into Paris of the army of Italy is to take plain on August 14th, and not on the 16th,se was generally supposed. This is a very good arrangement, for the procession of the troops and the usual entertain ments of the Fete Napoleon would have formed too large a programme for one day. There will now be two fête days instead of one. I mentioned yesterday the route which the troops would take ; the addi tional fact is now stated that the Emperor will see them march past in the Place Vendiime. I presume it may be inferred from this latter announcement that his Majesty will meet them there, and will not, as was expected, ride at their head through the streets of the capital. M. Granier de Camagnac has issued a proolama- tion in his own name to the Italian people. The two facts, that France is the senior free state in Europe " (!) and that she has lately given Italy a striking proof of her sympathy, confer a right upon . . . . . yesterday. He will leave for Zurich in two or three days. The Conferesee is not expected to take place before August Bth; but it is anticipated that all diffi culties being settled beforehand the treaty of p ea ce will be signed after two or three sittings. I this expectation should be disappointed, and if the three plenipotentiaries should not make a definitive treaty before August 16th, it will be necessary to prolong the armistice which expires ipso facto on that very day. The King of Sardinia, it must be remembered, was a party to that armistice, but he has not hitherto recognised the peace of Villatranca. There can be no doubt that it is the French Emperor's intention to have everything amicably settled before the fetes of August 16th bat Austria has the cards very much in her own hands, and may possibly turn out to be more obstinate than he expects. We know from Turin that very serious difficulties have arisen, and that, in fact, the Chevalier Des Ambroii journey to Paris is a consequence of them. _ The Vincennes Railway is now completed to the Place de Is Bastille, and some trial engines ran over the whole line to-day. The inauguration is said to be fixed for August 15, but I should bare thought that the fetes of Paris would entirely absorb atten tion on that day. That portion of the army of Italy which is to grace the Boulevards on the great annual holiday of the Napoleon dynasty is now fast arriving in France. General Regnault de Saint Jean d'Angely, the commandant of the Imperial Guard, is already in Paris with all his staff. The entire fords is expected to be assembled in the Camp of St. Maar, near Vincennes, by August 12. General Sonmain will oommand that camp. The troops will make their entry between the two handsome columns of the Barriere du Trone, pass along the Faubourg St. Antoine, follow the line of the Boulevards from the Bastille to the Rue de la Pair, cross the Place Vendome, and reach the Place de la Con corde by the Rue Castiglione and the upper part of the Rue Rivoli. The National Guard will line the way. The famous Turco' (the few of them that are left alive) will delight the eye of the Pari sian population, but lest their marauding habit, should tarnish their glory in the opinion of the citizens, they will be cked off to Algeria within 48 hours alter the conc lusion of the show. One of the Belgian papers contradicts the report that a monster banquet will be given to the soldiers in the Champs de Mars; but, as hawkers are permitted to cry bills about the streets giving a programme of this great military feed, I presume it will come off. In spite of the denial of the fiord I still believe that a large French force will take, and for a long while keep, military occupation of Central Italy. I hear of 60,000 men. At all events a Milan letter of July 28, in the Constitutioneel, says that orders have been given for a general inspection of the five re maining divisions, a fact which leads to the belief that they will remain at least for several months in Italy." A few days ago the Savoy Gazette contained the following paragraph: " It is said that M. Pietri, the head of the imperial police in Italy, has had a long conference with Kossuth at the Hotel Trembetta." The same journal now publishes, evidently on the authority of M. Kossuth himself, the following very curious rectification of the above statement : French Men to give adviesto Italy, and therefore he, M. Grapier de Cassagnao, a member of the Emperor's Corps Legialatif, writes an article in the Pays addressed, in immense type, " Aex Italiens." The object of this proclamation being simply to exhort the inhabitants of 'Linsey, Parma, and Modena to receive back their deposed sovereigns, and it being perfectly notorious that these peoples will never of their own free-will have anything more to do with them, the crack government writer approaches his subject with many oratorical precautions. The first half of his article expatiates, in very vague and general terms, upon the "immense abyss" which separates the Italy of to-day, " freed from Austrian domination," and the Italy of three months ago. He tells the Italians, four or five times over, that they are " independent," that their fate " de pends absolutely upon themselves," that it is for them to prove that Italy is "something more than • geographical expression," and that Italian nationality is now " entirely in the hands of the populations." But all this long exordium leads to this conclusion, that he, M. Grimier de Cassagnan, cannot see any reason why the Tuscans, Parmese, and Modeneee should not "denationalise" them selves by becoming incorporated with Piedmont. How nice it is, he says in a coaxing way, to have your own capital and your own flag, however small people you may be. He would have the people of Central Italy believe all the promises of their exiled sovereigns, and believe that the dukes, who were in the Austrian camp at Solferino, and whom main trust for their restoration is in Vienna, are now " sincerely desirous to show themselves true patriots." It was necessary, he says, that Piedmont should be enlarged—that wee a French as well as an Italian necessity, but the object has been attained with undeviating precision by the annexation of the rich and fertile province of Lombardy. He who goes beyond his object mimes it. Italian independence is conquered, "because Venice and her territories will hereafter be Italian " (!), and, ergo, Tuscany and Modena mast take their Austrophile dukes back again. Such, if M. de Camagnac has any authority to speak, is the will of France, for, menewhat con tradicting the protestations in the first part of his article that Italy was now perfectly free and inde pendent, he says is conc'usion that the " great point for Italy is to justify the sympathy of France." I am completely at a loss to divine what may be the real intentions of the French government with regard to the duchies, bat manifestations like those of H. de Carrigan are certainly ominous. The French government cannot be so childish as to suppose that any amount of preaching will either c►ange the settled purpose of the people of Central Italy, or be accepted by the Emperor of Austria as satisfaction for rash promisee made at Valenti's'. It becomes every day more obvious that the task of the conference of Zurich is not to put into form the Meaty of Villefranca, but to make a new one, the bases of which are even yet all sixes and sevens. According to a oommunication which we have received hem s poison fully authorked to make it, there we in the shove two lines a earioue error, which it is important to comae. As to the pronliar tamales' which it is seemed that M. Senator Pasts{ eseroless in Italy, it is for him to contradict the rumour if he should deem it nacessery. But with regard to M. Koesuth, who has had not one but esawal Interviews with M. Piatri, he °etiolate did not and could not mat him In the character of the had of the imperial polka. N. Nemeth treated with M. Piaui on the cootideottal *gent of the Emperor Napoleon charged with the conduct of all &tsar cosearoiog the relations of the Emperor with the Iftagarien mike. - - - - - A Turin journal says that the celebrated post Manzoni, the author of the Claque Maggio,* has refused to write a dedication for toe album which the ladies of Milan propose to present to the Empress. This news is received with incredulity in Pans, as being inconsistent with Manzoni's well-known sym pathies for the Emperor. It is suggested that if be has really declined to write the dedication the state of his health must be the only reason. I can, how ever, well understand that the man who, in allusion to the career of the first Napoleon, wrote the line— Fa vers gloria P Ai postai% aentears— should hesitate to connect his name with the peace of Villafrance. _ _ The improbable story was lately set about that Priam Napoleon was going all the way to Vienna to bring home the remains of the Duke of Reichatadt (Napoleon IL) The Petrie now says there is no sort of foundation for the rumour. _ _ The Boone was heavy at the opening, but after the riposte des primes (options) the Rents, which had declined to 68.30, became stronger, and it closed for cash at yesterday's price, 68.60, and at the same quotation (being a rue of be.) for amount.

It was said yesterday that the Zurich conference would only occupy one or two sittings, but the Pays of this evening learns from Vienna that Count Colloredo will not leave that capital for five or six days to come, that his instructions are not yet completed, that they will embrace a vast number of political, economical, financial, and commercial questions, and that if all these should be treated of the conferences of Zurich will last a long while. Under these circumstances I doubt very seriously whether any treaty whatever will be signed before August 16. SARDINIA. The following is the text of M.Ratazzi's circular, a telegraphic summary of which we gave on Thurs day : The nature of the events, by means of which the sinseze• anon of Lombardy to the subalpine kingdom has been effected, caused the ilinstrlons men who formed the council of the down to resign their offices. But this change produces no serious modification in the political direction hitherto par sued by the government of the state with so much prudence and firmness. PARIS, SATUiDAT IVRNINO. The government journals seem to have received instructions to abandon HAI untenable position which they had assumed with regard to the English national defences. Lord Palmerston's calm but de cided declaration, that it would be " impossible for her Majesty's ministers to enter into any arrange ment whatever with the French government to settle the amount at which the naval forces of the two countries should be kept up," appears to hare settled the question, and I dare say we shall hear nothing more about the absolute necessity of Eng land " diecontioning her immense armaments," at the risk of being " answerable for the consequences." I am now disposed to think that the Privy Council of Wednesday last, at which Count de l'enigny was present, inaugurated a change of policy. At all events, I as happy to record the disappearance of those symptoms which, but a day or two since, appeared to indicate a desire to pick a quarrel with England. The Patelc takes the English Prime Mi nister's speech in very good part; speaks of Mr. 13entinck'e question as having been pat with a view to embarrass the government; and characterises Lord Palmerston's declaration as the "best possible answer." It is said that at Count Walewski's recep tion yesterday the corps diplomatique, while quite alive to the great difficulties of the Italian question, expressed the greatest confidence in the continuance of peace in Europe. The Elberfelil Gazette, in announcing the already known fact of the demobilisation of the Prussian army, says that the ith and Bth corps will form an exception, and will remain ou a war footing "until the French army of the east shall be recalled into the interior of France. It is stated that a confi dential demand on this subject has been addressed by our government to that of Paris, and it is pro bable that both the armies will be withdrawn simul taneously." Au assertion of the Sieele that the Duchess of Parma, in order to have a foot in both camps, wrote oocciliatory autograph letters both to the Emperor Francis Joseph and the Emperor Napoleon before the commencement of hostilities, is indignantly denied by her friends. The Pays also demos a statement of the Slide that the annexation of Parma and Pia centa to Sardinia was 'greed upon at Villafranea ; but both the allegation and the contradiction seem to be offered without any positive anti eity. The Lyons Gazette says that the Pope " has not refused the presidency of the confederation. He has merely declared that he wishes first to know the nature and conditions of the position be is expected to fill. For the welfare of Italy he is disposed to do everything in his power that is compatible with the nature of his government. The Holy Father bas taken the advice of a congregation of eight cardinals on this subject. Two advised him to refuse the pre sidency, but the other six were of opinion that he should reserve his answer until farther explanations were given as to what the confederation and the pre sidency would be." The Piedmoutese plenipotentiary, Chevalier Des Ambrois, had an interview with Coent Welewski The rentiments that attach the king and country to the glorious Emperor and the great nation whine destinies he directs, the necessity of securing and loyally carrying out in the interest of our common country the conditions of the pesos, the opportunity of enabling the annexed provinces to share at moo in the privileges pm seised by the old provinces, far from estranging no, ought rather constantly to convince as still mom of the propriety of remaining steadfast In the direction that has secured to on for more than ten years, by the union of order and freedom , all the blemiegs of our political government. Accordingly, the new council of ministers will continue to develop es largely ae t aesible the great principles which the magnani mous author of the statute has laid down as the basis of our public law for the program of his people and the preorrvati•a of the destinies of Italy, She will find in the reforms effected, in the liberties created after onr exempla, the mesas of attaining without shocks that in dependence, which the wish of Europe, and which monde's dons both of justice end civiliaatlon squally demand. The work which the new cabinet la called upon to oom• pleas within a brief period is as arduous as its offsets will be important for the entire country. It bat, therefore, need of the frank and loyal aseistance, and the Intelligent co-opera tion of all the public functioneries throughout the several parts of the kingdom. The uodersigned addreases himself to all who belong to hie department, and invites them with confidence to imbue themselves thoroughly with the idea of the government, and cordially to aid hint in performing the duties imposed upon him by the confidence of the crown. To this end they will hasten to calm the minds of those who have been too quickly discouraged, to restore disap pointed hopes, to strengthen their faith in low end freedom, to dissipate every cause of dissent, to secure everywhere the conditions of order—to collect, is short, mound the oznatitn- Lionel throne of the King all the livereste, aspirations, and legitimate influences of the nation. The King's government ever wishes to be the government of the whole country, end never that of a party. If it be essential to liberal organisations thetae nation should be divided into parties, it G likewise an essential condition of those organisations that the entbolitGe from whom the guarantee of the rights and Interests of the citizens emanates should remain unbiassed by all party spirit. The moral awhoeity of the public functionaries will be more enhanced by tbe scrupulous discharge of their duties Is this respect. The representatives of the central power in the several pro vinces will also be so good as not to forget that according to the spirit of our institution, they are at ore and the same time and in many respects the representetives of the provinces as regards that same central power, and that It is their Dais- Mon to protect, male, and strengthen legally all kcal scans, whether public or private, and not to opera it, stifle it, muse it fur the 111Chlei we advantage of governmental action. he it is the intention of the government to propme reforms al a Witte to enlarge the oummunsl and provincial liberties, so as bolter to secure the joint working of the nation with the powers of the Stare, the public functionaries will t.ke can to second this movement by preparing the people for this szliesios of the political gnarentees. In the proviams whore the representative (um of govern ment is not yet Monett into play, they will endeavour to an ticipate the motemit when they shall be endowed with them, endeavouring on their part se far se the public voice will per mit to conform to the wish of the people; to this end they will gather around them those men who, by reason of their acquirementa, morality, and other qualities, are looked upon as the matured representatives of the cottony. With the same object in view they will take care to remove front public functions such r arsons sa do not enjoy the esteem of the public. The government of the most loyal of hinge ought not only to be, hat to appear to be, in the ma of all, the safest, most honooreble, and mat moral of gavel= its. The nation has the right to appear worthy of its liberties. All the public functionaries will allow no opportunity to mem of paying homage to civil morality. Ludy, the public *slay will invite all your attention. It often happens after great wino, strong political excitements, that order in this rasped is tome Ireseeriously compromised. It will be your duty, with the saskrance of the municipal authorities and the national guard that will have to be orga nised in every commune, to make provision to the end that persons of every station and property of every description may be placed under public protection. It is essential for this that the people should reason rightly, acknowledging the goodness and strength of the governments. It is on them conditions that the undersigned depmde, as regards all the functionaries of his department both is the old and new pro vinous, upon their assistance and co-operation, required for the realisation of the work that has been confided to him.

This bill was 000sidered as emended, and ordered to be reed a third time to-morrow__ SUPPLY. On the motion for going into committee of supply, Lord ELCHO wished to bow whether supply would be taken on Thursday, as he should in that case move his amendment on that day, that it was consistent neither with the honour nor the dignity of the country to take part in say conference fee the Menthes the details of peace. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER. hoped the committee of supply would have terminated before Thurs day; but no doubts report of the oocomittee would be brought up on Thursday, and that would afford the noble lord an op portunity of making hie motion. Lord 3. MANNERS complained of the course takes by the Chief Commirsioner of Works in directive Mr. S'ett, the architect, to make drawings in a different style of architecture to those already prepared and accepted for the new Foreign-o Moe. It appeared as if the govern ment oontemplatte setting the original design 'aide. Now, each • proceeding would involve • similar change in the so °opted designs for the India office, and Involve the country in considerable expense beyond that which bad sleeted, been incurred in connexion with the matter. He there. tomcatted upon the government to give a pledge that nothing should be does in the way of altering or changing the designs of the two offices until the house had had an oppor tunity of pronouncing an opinion upon it. Lord ROBERT. CECIL "eked the Seceetary of State far the Home department, whether it was the intention of the goverment to issue commissions to Inquire into the election premed*s of those oonstituencies In which com mittees have reported that extensive bribery prevails. The noble lord said it was not the sitting member who wee responsible for the bribery in these came; but the subordi nate prey spats of rabtropolitaa clubs, and that system of organised bribery ought to be thotoughly investigated by local eamminelann Sir G. C. LEWIS said the government, es sgovernment, had oo peculiar functions in such cases. The pectice hitherto hed been that when a committee reported bribery, • motion was made that the evidence taken before the com mittee be printed. The chairmen of the committee then reeved an address to the crown for • commission, and that motion wax generally assented to by the house. Sir J. Y. SHELLEY gave notice that this evening he will move that where a member has been uvsested for bribery no new writ should Gime until the house should have had an opportunity of considering the evidence taken before the election committee. The hour* then went into committee, and the remainder of the Civil Service Estimates and Civil Contingencies were disposed of. The house then resumed, and proceeded with the other orders of the day, which omelets d of the following third readings, viz. —County Cies (Ireland) Acta Continuance Bill ; Manufacture* (Ireland) Acts COII4OIIIIIICO Bill ; • Leeielatured Powered Espial Bill; baud* Govern ment Bill; Queen's Remembrance", Itc., Bill; and the Mili tary Savings Beaks Bill.

He then prom eded to stun up the evidence, and dwelt at some length on the fact that hooves and Mu were bleed by Mr. Wentworth's agents for the large sum of 2 guineas each per day. The fair rate foe the hire of a horse and cart was, be said, about one fourth of the amount agreed upon by Mr. Wentworth. NORTH LEICESTER.
