A SECOND EDITION of the EXPRESS, CONTAINING The Latest Foreign Telegrams; the Latest City; Railway, Mining, and other Shares; Sporting, and General Intelligence, IS PUBLISHED EVERY EVENING. LONDON, THURSDAY, JULY 16. YR. ROEBUCK. A 1)11TE 1 . 1.1 N, as the Americans call it. has arisen between Mr. I:oEnucx and his constituents at Sheffield. The artisans of that town appreciate the downright speech, the incisive tongue, and the cynical temper of their number. They have par doned him much on account of these questionable puculiarities. T1...y 11:.ve been ready to believe that rudeness is hon..sty, and that self-confidence is merit. But they :ire unable, with every fuir alluw aucethatcalai s. mad' • for human infirmity, to account for Mr. Rotiirries conduct, or to foresee with that confidence which ought to exist when the choice of a representative is !mule, what his course is likely to be in future. Against these doubts and misgivings, Mr. Ito EDIT K has only those personal pleas to offer which arc too often advanced by men towards whom indulgence has reached its limits, and who FIT the dismissal which they have pro voked impending over them. He tells the people of Sheffield that he has been twenty years with them, and that Le is ‘• neither richer nor poorer, much older, much weaker—time, strength, health, 4 ' Laving been spent in their service." If a man is not ashamed to offer these abject appeals, if he does not shrink from exposinghis wounds and nakedness, and from making a show of his grey hairs and his en feebled strength, no doubt the pleading will not be -without its effect. Men will pity if they cannot respect him who thus parades his infirmities ; and to show that they do not withhold their compassion will be betrayed into acts which look like a re nowal of confidence. As to the logical force of Mr. ltonutieleS argument, it will not bear very strict scrutiny. That Mr. Rousucx after twenty years' service should be twenty years older than be was before it, might have gone with out saying. The electors of Sheffield are not responsible for that. Time would not have stood still with Mr. Roam:Tor, if he had not been mem ber for Sheffield. That he is " much weaker " at; sixty-five than ho was at five and forty is matter for regret, but still scarcely leaves room for surprise. The electors of Sheffield do not visseas the elixir of life, nor Mings.7e art of boil ing-old men young. Mr. ROZDVOK'S announoe sno t. the twenty . years during Which he ; 44 - sat for Sheffield have mete ;lira " deitbtt tither nor poorer," is a sestentent of is. difficult to take aomunt. 11? Fat.

If the statement is made in illustration of MA ROEBUCK'S political virtue, it is made, we yentara to suggest, a century and a half too late. The boast would have had a meaning in rho mouth of ANDERW MARVELS., or of a politician of the time of WALPOLE, or even of a member of the Irish Parliament at the time of the Union, for money was going freely then. But no one sup poses that it is to be had now, or that if it were Mr. ROEBUCK would hold out his hand for it. To declare, as Mr. ROEBUCK seems to do, that he has not trafficked in his parliamen tary influence is only to say what six-hun dred and fifty other gentlemen might protest with wo doubt not, equal truth. In one respect wo are glad to receive Mr. ROILBUCK'S assurance. No one expected to hoar that ho was any richer for his connexion with the Galway contract, or with the Austrian bank, and the other financial projects of Mr. ORREL LEVER, which have come to so untimely an end. That ho is none the poorer for them, we are glad to learn upon his own authority. Questionable as the schemes were, Mr. ROE B UCK was never, we are convinced, otherwise than honourably associated with them. Indeed, if we recollect rightly, he satisfactorily proved as much when his conduct was called in question by some of his constituents. If Mr. ROEBUCK intends, by the vaunt that he is neither richer nor poorer, to say that he has not accepted office, ho may be fairly asked whether ho has over refused it. It is not Mr. ROEBUCK'S fault, if ho is not now Chairman of the Metropolitan Board of Works. When that office was first created, Mr. ROEBUCK proposed to grow old, and to spend time, strength, and health in the well-remunerated service of that body. Ho wont down to a meet ing of the Board, and pleaded, in person, for the place as for life and death. This was a perfectly honourable course to take. Mr. ROEBUCK'S ambi tion was legitimate, though it was not successful, the Board thinking that Sir Joint (then Mr.) THWAITES was the better man. The representation of Sheffield was a pis slier with Mr. ROEBUCK. It may seem ungracious to examine minutely Mr. ROEBUCK'S petition. But maudlin appeals, such as he has been freely making of late, in the characterof &faithful oldservant protesting against the assumed ingratitude of a capricious master, are degrading to the manliness and independence of political life. They are Buncombe of the very worst sort. They must be discountenanced and discredited. Mr. ROEBUCK'S age and infirmities, and failure to enrich himself in polities, at the bar, or in commercial ventures, are not proper subjects for confidences with his constituents. By his public conduct he must stand or fall. He is, we believe, at heart what he professes to be, an Englishman proud of the Anglo-Saxon race. Yet he did all that a bitter and insolent tongue could do to bring about a war between the two great branches of that race in England and America. He assumes to be the " Tear-'em," the faithful watch-dog of the British householder, and his patriotism is undoubtedly sincere ; yet he has been seen fawning in the Imperial ante-rooms of Paris and Vienna. He . affects a proper independence of Mr. 01..u)srrorrz and Mr. GLYN ; but he does so in such a manner to suggest, if not relations with Mr. DISRAELI and Colonel TAYLOR, that personal dislike and jealousy quite as much as public feeling animate his conduct. When his convictions or a deference for the feelings of his constituents compel him to vote with his party, he generally manages, as on the Irish Church question, to undo the effect of his vote by his speech. On the Trades' Union Commission he did good service, but his tone, unfortunately, was that of an advocate retained by the masters rather than of an impartial and judicial inquirer. He never speaks with out a mischievous bitterness of Ireland and the Irish, which undoes the effect of his most effective home-truths ; yet in the matter of the Galway contract be did his best to minister to the worst side of the Irish character, the taste for public jobs, and the greed for public money. It is for the people of Sheffield to strike the balance of good and evil in Mr. RoE nrcx's political character, and to decide whether or not he does truly represent them, and is likely to help or hinder the men in whom they have confidence and the measures which they desire. As one of the notabilities of Parliament, we should be sorry to see his place empty. The House of Commons could better spare a better man. THE UNPUBLISHED POEM 1:1" MILTON. A NEW poem by an old master is an an nouncement calculated to provoke determined scepticisin. ell. rrEirroN, IRELAND, and the ineiciless ction just performed by the A th(h(luin on the modern emendations of Saila 'EA LE'S text, all come to mind as the news is read. Happily, however, in the instance which has set (very man of letters talking to-day, the name of the discoverer stands too high for doubt ; and whatever may be the ultimate value of the Miltonic poem published by Professor MORLEY in this morning's Tines, it is at least certain that it is no artfully devised trick upon our literary virtuosi, but has been found, transcribed, and published in complete good faith. This admitted—and no one conversant with Professor MonLEY's reputation will presume to question it—how wonderful does the mode and place of the discovery appear. Among EDGAR ALLAN POE'S " Tales of Mystery, " Imagination, and Humour," that of " The Lost Letter" is a chief favourite. A valuable document has been stolen, and a person of high rank is known to be the thief. Ho cannot be charged openly with the offence, so the most astute detectives are employed to search his house while he is away. Every conceivable piece of fur niture is tapped and guagod in secret for false bottoms and hidden cells, and the pro fessional searchers eventually give up the task in despair. Then a shrewder than they appears upon the scene, and the missing letter is disco vered, half torn across and stuck prominently in a paper-rack exposed to the observation of every visitor to the house. The ease with which it could have been found had been calculated on to baffle professional sagacity, and with entire success. We are reminded of this story in reading Professor MORLEY' El let ter. In the " King's Library " of the British Museum, on the blank leaf of an edition of MILTON, open to any student, within easy reach of thousands upon thousands of literati, who, year after year, have explored the Museum shelves, this poem, in MILTON'S hand writing, is found.

THE CORONATION OATII. Jr HISTORICIIBV literary style were as sound as his argument this morning, ho would be far more valuable as an ally. But he offends his readers at the outset by the air of clumsy condescension and pompous self-confidence perceptible in his writings. Mon ask who this god from Olym pus is, who belabours mere mortals with so many adjectives indicative of contempt for their judgment, and superiority to their weaknesses. But these defects passed by, his views upon the nature and obligation of the Coronation Oath are statesmanlike and sound. The ridiculous attitude the defenders of the Irish Church have thought proper to assume has com pelled liberal politicians to raise points and enforce principles which should never have been disputed, and one of the first questions which the parliamen tary debates of the future will have to settle will be the extent of the personal obligation conveyed in the Coronation Oath. The theological prophecies of men of Lord ItEDEBDALE'S turn of mind must be stopped. We cannot have threats of eternal punishment following upon the discharge of con stitutional duties, and " HISTORICII8" writes sen sibly when he says, " That the Sovereign has any " right to oppose a personal sentiment to the " deliberate will of the nation, is a doctrine " which no constitutional statesman will dare "to maintain. As well might it be said that " because the right of peace and war by the Con " stitution is vested personally in the Sovereign " that therefore the Qua could make war or " conclude peace without the consent of the " nation." The plain moral of the question is that what Parliament makes it can unmake, and the more it is examined the truer it will appear that "to assert that it is the " duty of the Sovereign to oppose the obliga " tion of an oath imposed by Parliament and the " nation as a personal obstacle to a modification " of its stipulations demanded by the Parliament " and the nation is a position which betrays an " equal ignorance of the principles of ethics and "of those of the Constitution." Conservative candidates must find some other election cry than this ; and " Iffgroxicus's" wordiness may be for given to-day in consideration of the common sense it conveys. HUMAN MALADIES. A oterrixoutsuzio authority asserts in the current number of a medical contemporary, that the exist ing definitions of diseases, as set forth in the names given to common maladies, lack precision and accuracy. So far from the terms erysipelas, gout, eczema, etc., indicating definite states of the system, which on being recognised, receive definite treatment, it would seem that one instance of disease often more truly resembles another bearing a different name than it does one having its own designation. "No physician " can guarantee to another that he will obtain " the same results as he has himself if he follows " the same procedure in dealing with an apps " ?male quite similar disease." This is a startling assertion and contrary to the popular notions regarding the character of a man's ail ments and the power of his medical adviser. Still, if it be truth, it can scarcely be too widely known and acted on. The cause of this difference in the character of a disease having one name, as observed in two different patients, is stated to be found in the fact that no two human bodies are precisely alike. This being so, a cause is also supplied of the observed difference of effect of the same drug on two different persons. If these explanations are correct, our hopes of therapeutics ever being raised to the position of an exact science are almost destroyed. Medical practice must become less a matter of rule than experience founded on rule—acute observation and reflection based on a sound and extensive knowledge of chemical and physical laws. A GREAT deal of gratuitous advertising goes on in the world, and no one has had a larger share of it in recent times than Madame BACUEL. Before she was known to the police courts, or to the Old Bailey, she had been popular as a typo amongst the censors of modern manners, and it is said that even the pulpit has heard of her works. Fortunate still, she is to-morrow to occupy the attention of the Legislature. The pages of " Ilansard" are to preserve her name in connexion with that of Lord ARTIMR CLINTON, who intends, according to a notice in the Parlia mentary Order-book, " To call the attention of " the A'rroRNEY-GENERAL to the reports in the " papers of Wednesday last with reference to " the application for the release on bail of " Madame RAcirEL; and to ask him what is the " state of the law on the subject, and whether the " motion for the release was properly made to "Mr. Justice BLACKBURN." Madame RACUEL'S fading and faded clients, and the matrons known to the Saturday Review, who are awaiting her return with distressing eager ness, will appreciate Lord ARTHUR CLINTON'S interest in the liberty of the subject, but it is not so clear that the general public will be edified by the appearance in Parliament of the cosmetic merchant. As ten days must elapse after tho last vote in supply, which will be granted at this morning's sitting, there is little chance of a prorogation before the 28th. The country party insist, against, as it is said, Mr. DienAzu's wish, that the Cattle Plague Bill be persevered in. A sitting, however, is to take place on Saturday morning, and the public business will be so far expedited. Tint QuEsn's journey to Switzerland will take place, it is believed, immediately after the 4th of August.

The Tinier protests against Mr. Metre frihrilke. again unfolded in his Limerick speech, foe. regenerating Ireland by the artificial production of peasant proprietors. Re is attempting what our contemporary believes to be utterly impossible, what has no ground in Justice, or in the iesidiraent of eqaality; or la the public interest, and what can only end in failure and disappoint ment. No doubt a peasant proprietorship, or a large clue of " statesmen," as they exist still in some parts of England, would be better, politically and socially, than a reign of absentee landowners and the rest of the actual system. But the peasant proprietors or small landowners must be of spontaneous growth and must arise out of encouraging circumstances. It would be impossible to obtain proprietors of this sort without great cost to the British public, groat risk of further coat, and great interference with the existing arrange ments and transactions of property. What is done for Ireland must be something just, practicable, fair to all, and adapted to character and circumstances. When that is accomplished it may prove the good seed of a still in creasing harvest, and the sound foundation of an edifice whereof we see not yet the beauty or the dimensions. The truth is that the two countries must become more and more equal, united, and, as far as possible, intermingled. It is not a creation of new rights, and a new division of the soil, as if Ireland were the promised land of a new dispensation. It is simple justice between man and man, a mall thing to attempt, but the leaven, may be, of in finite good. The Daily News thinks Mr. Bright may fairly claim credit on the ground that ho has made his contributions to the settlement of the Irish difficulty ; and unless the tone of the debates of the present session, both on the land question and on the church question, be very misleading, the ultimate solution is likely to be found in measures not very remote from the propositions which he has recom mended. Irish landlords and Irish churchmen may go further and fare worse. Behind Mr. Bright there is Mr. Mill on the one ride, and Mr. Wall on the other. A little injudicious delay may transform Mr. Bright's schemes from revolutionary projects into compromises for which the time has gone by. The Herald'. complaint is that there was no novelty in Mr. Bright's speech. He presented himself as "a preacher of political righteousness," and certainly his sermon was very much like one of his stump speeches, toned down to decorous dulness. But there was something new in the piece of fustian with which he brought his discourse to a dose. Standing in "the city of the violated treaty," he proposed a new treaty, which is " not to be written on parchment, bat on the hearts of the nations." It is " justice on the part of Great Britain, forgiveness on the part of Ireland." Putting together his deliverances upon the church and the land questions, the Herald perceives that this is merely an eupheraiam for general oonfisca tion and Popish ascendancy. TIM CIVIL SZITICZ. The Post says Mr. Childers has completely established the fact that there is a steady and apparently continuously progressive increase in the cost of doing the business of the country. He is disposed to think that the eleven mil lions which the country pays does not do its duty, and our contemporary adds that the service is progressing towards demoralisation, and clever discontent is compelling the ac cord of increased pay. That is a largely operating in fluence in the augmentation of estimates. In discussing the plan of reform the Poses urges that a general inquiry into the organisation of the service with a view to arrange or unite, subordinate or suppress, will re quire both ability and determination in the highest degree. A case has, however, been made out for such an at tempt. Our contemporary is not in favour of cutting down salaries, which is the first thought of vulgar and superficial economists. Experience shows that money is wasted rather in paying those who can be dispensed with than in properly paying those whose services are necessary. But the constant increase in the cost of this service calls for inquiry, and is a question of imperial interest. TES POZZION CAIII/1 MULLET RILL. The Herald still insists that the real object of this mea sure is simply to preserve our home stock against the rinderpeet and other continental diseases; and contends that if the bill imposed a sacrifice in order to effect this purpose it would be well worth passing. The Star urges that the effect of the bill must be to raise the price of meat to the consumers in London and in all large inland towns. To prevent foreign cattle and sheep from being sent alive into populous manufacturing districts must, as a matter of course, seriously lessen the small amount of animal food which the poorer classes are now able to obtain.

" It is confirmed," says the IndApendance Beige, " that the French Government was enabled to give the Spanish Cabinet the first information re specting the insurrectionary movement in Spain. It was it, also, that mowed the suspicions of the Spanish Cabinet against the Duke do Montpen sier. But it is not known on what data these revelations are founded, or whether there aro any facts to justify them. It may be doubted whether there are, because the Spanish government have hitherto merely exercise(' the power of autho rity, without daring to bring the vic tims of its exercise before the legal tri bunals of the country, notoriously devoted though they be to the interests of power. However, whether there exists a conspiracy or not, a government which is obliged to arrest the most illustrious chiefs of the army and the nearest rela tives of the crown to secure its existence is a con demned government, and no lying telegrams sent by its orders through Europe will arrest its fall." The Madrid correspondent of the same journal writes: It appears that at the council which prey-d-el the ar rest of the generals, several members were of opinion that the insurrectionary movement should be allowed is take place, FO that the guilty parties could he rigorou,ly punished. But the majority, doubting, probably of their power to suppress it, adopted a course that was wholly preventive. It is a mistake to say that General Itos de Olano was arrested. lie was the only general of the liberal union who has escaped arrest up to the present. I may be wrong in my expectation, but it seems to me the beginning of the end is near at hand. In 1834 the ministry presided over by Count San-Luis arrested and exiled a number of general. But they escaped, and in a short time after the insurrection broke out, and the ministry who exiled them ware themselves driven into banishment. GENERAL PRIM AND THE BELGIAN MINISTER OF JUSTICE. General Prim has addressed a letter, dated 6, Bt. James's-terrace, London, July 12, to the Bel gian Minister of Justice, in which he contradicts the statement made by the latter in the Belgian Chamber with regard to the expulsion of the general from Brussels. The letter concludes as follows: It would be easy for me to refute you on other points, but I do not think it advisable to do so in the special cir cumstances in which lam placed. But be assured the time will come when, from another tribune, I shall do so, and there I shall not imitate your conduct by distorting facts.—l am, M. le Ministre, with the consideration I owe you, your servant, Ls Costs DX Racal. ANTI-PAPAL DEMONSTRATION IN TRIESTE. Private despatches from Trieste bring the news of disturbances of some gravity in that city. A large crowd traversed the streets crying out : " Morte a Pio Nono " " Alaimo Bach !" The escutcheons which ornamented the house of the Papal Consul were torn down, and a violent irruption very nearly made into the Capucine monastery. It was, in fact, quite an anti-papal movement, and if no blood was shed the reason is that care was taken not to call out the troops. Against whom were these hostile demonstrations primarily directed ? Against M. Edouard do Bach, Governor of Trieste, and brother of that famous Minister to whom Austria is indebted for the Concordat, and who, by his strongly anti liberal conduct, has for a long time exasperated the population of the place. A SCENE IN THE FRENCH CHAMBER. The following scene took place in the Corps Legialatif on Tuesday: M. Tturrax—The hon. minister has stated that every precaution is taken in order that electors may be inscribed in time, but the example of Paris gives a peremptory nega tive to that assertion. This city, or rather the department of the Seine, has had within the last five years an increase of 600,000 inhabitants. A Mmomm—Nomadc ! M. PELLETAN—No ! the census is taken only of settled inhabitants. But the constitution declares that the num ber of deputies shall be in proportion to that of the popu lation. (Noise.) Severed Mionnuta—To that of the electors. M. PELLErax—The constitution is formal. It adds that there shall be a deputy for 3.5,000 electors. (Move ment.) That clause is why the latter are not inscribed. The population of this department has increased by 600,000, and the number of deputies has diminished. I know that the Prefect of the Seine can work miracles; after having remade Paris, he readily devises a now arithmetic, and will prove even to M. Pouyer-Quertier himself that two and two make three. (Laughter.) The number of electors inscribed in Paris has not varied and yet you have changed the electoral circumscriptions. (Noise.) You cannot repudiate what you have done. However, it is pains thrown away; you may manipulate the map of Paris as you will ; you will not win the game. (Noise.) And what has been attempted in this city has also been tried elsewhere in order to defeat an opposition candidate. Of all election maneeuvres this is the worst, and never has a greater outrage been offered to universal suffrage. (Approval from the Opposition ; dissent from other benches.) M Plclr.D—This is a question of probity. (Murmurs from a large number of benches.) The Peemeeter—M. Picard, you have lately adopted a habit against which I am bound to protest, that of as galling intentions and imputing motives. It is one which is extremely dangerous and greatly to be deplored. (Hear, bear.) M. Pie.ken—l do not at all accept these words. You have only one right, which is to call me to order if I de serve it ; but neither you nor anyone else will prevent me from qualifying as I have just done that which has taken place in respect to the electoral circumscriptions of Paris. (Dissent. Noise.) The PaEntnest—Be itso ; but qualify them in terms ac ceptable to all. M. Picane—l repeat that the manipulation of the electoral districts raises a question of probity. (Interrup tion.) M. Ontrrixit-Psols—They are dealt with fraudulently in Paris—(noise)—that is the truth. The PuseaDswr—For the dignity of our debates and the reputation of the Chamber itself, it is of importance not incessantly to express suspicion, nor to describe, in offen sive terms, intentions and motives. In this sense I con firm and maintain my observation. M. WA's-Bum:it—When they are not honest they should be characterised. M. Oaitarxx-PAoze (with animation)—We shall never accept as acts of good faith the frauds which are com mitted in expunging names from the electoral lists. The Passnerwr—lif. Ganger Pages, be good enough to calm yourself. (Laughter.) That is all I desire to say to you. (ramotron •sera is unarm.) FRANCE. PARIS, JULY 16.

(FROM Ont OWN CORKKSPONDEN7 PARIS, WEI,NI: , ,MY Among several opposition 1 ,1, budget negatived in the Corps Logi.la!if day, one moved by M. Magnin laoa,..d:t t short declaration from Marshal Niel ca t L i mako foreign governments pensive. M. m moved to strike out an item of tsm,ootur,, of the six " great military commands " the Emperor some time ago, the mover of the amendment said were 11:1!, necessary. France had got on very well them, and now that the country was eover.-1 a net-work of railways and telegraphs. and tL.•.; divisions of the army or any part of the la readily be concentrated on any given order from the Minister of War, thea, • ai x quarters were even a greater superfluity th ee, would have been formerly. The prete xt t them that they were wanted as r.sw Marshals of France would not now 1,11 cause three out of the six commands a in the hands of generals of divisions. H therefore, was a capital opportunity for Niel to get back the million which the had remorselessly struck out of his other day, and which he pathetically said I. not do without. Marshal Niel said: One of the most necessary conditions of 1.!1 trnt these days is to bo able to pass easily ti iu . 1 . to a war footing. In order to do this divi.u-t, be formed into a corps d'arms. The ; true, enable us quickly to form divisions, but th.• ~,„. placed under a leader who must .• and it is difficult to arrange all this without . • beforehand the plans of government.

M. Jules Favre observed that the cleete:: of the Minister of War did not seen: t very reassuring, and that, I apprehend, x the opinion of the world. These six •z: commands were formed, there is too much : i• to believe, with a view to the " mission." y • undeveloped, which the Emperor, in his taincbleau speech, says, " must be accomplisi.
