EXPRESS, OONTAINING The Latest Foreign Telegrams; the Latest City; Railway, Mining, and other Shares ; Sperling, and General Intelligence, 111 PUBLIMIZD EVERY EVENING. LONDON, TUESDAY, NOV. 10. OUR RELATIONS WITH THE UNITED STATES. Tuz presence of the representatives of foreign governments at the LORD MAYOR'S table in Guild hall is always regarded by the public as one of the most auspicious Of the feast. Yes- terday, Lord Mayor LAWHILSCE was particularly fortunate in this respect. The toast of " The " Foreign Ministers" was acknowledged by an English-speaking and, we might add, en English thinking, diplomatist, in language so frank, hearty, and felicitous, that it was difficult for the company present to imagine that Mr. REVEHDY JOHNSON was a diplomatist in the old sense, or a foreigner in any sense. The polished emptiness of the Txxl.Ersaarn and Mr:Wa rm-1i vocabulary which we have been accustomed to bear imitated by their lisping pupils is doubly foreign to English-speaking lips. Mr. REVERDT JorriesoN's open and aboveboard manner of con ducting negotiations is perfectly compatible with the utmost firmness and dexterity, though not with the charlatanerie of the old school of solemn triflers who used words, not so much to conceal their thoughts as to conceal their want of thought and of sincerity. The Minister of the United States has accepted his mission to this country as one of peace and goodwill, and comes to us inspired Stith no meaner ambition than that of making two great kindred nations friends, and putting an end to family quarrels. Although he has been among us but a few weeks, he was able to announce in the Guildhall last evening that the objects of his mission were substantially accomplished. The PREMIER, whose failing is certainly not a too great dislike of finessing, was fairly nonplussed by the American Minister's down rightnees in throwing all his cards on the table. But the general public will not regretthat Mr. Insaa.F.o was unable, on this occasion, to play his tricks and his honours according to the rigour of the game. Evidently Mr. BEVERLY JOHNSON is the represen tative of anew eraof international relations. "Secret " diplomacy " must be henceforth an anachronism, at least so far as the intercourse between free countries is concerned. The art and mystery has become an open secret. Better news has seldom reached the public ear than that which Mr. REVERDY JOHNSON announced limit evening, and which by this time has been echoed over half the globe. " The difficulties which have for " some time threatened the peace of the " two countries are now at an end. What " that end is, and bow that end has been brought " about I forbear to say, except that it has been " brought about without touching in the slightest " degree the rights or the honour of either nation." The American Minister was certainly not "overstep "ping the bonds of diplomatic propriety" in giving this assurance. Nor, indeed, could the way in which this happy end has been brought about be much of a mystery. There were understood to be three unsettled questions between the Government of the United States and our own : the question of the Alabama (embracing a variety of difficul ties), the question of the denationalization of British emigrants, and the question of the Island of San Juan. Where there is a mutual desire to make friends and not to quarrel, it is clear that such questions as these are moot easily settled by an appeal to disinterested and dispas sionate arbitration. According to the Times, it has been agreed between the two Governments that all the questions which have arisen, and remained unsettled, between the two Governments since 1853 (all questions before that date having been similarly dis posed of), shall be referred to a joint com mission of four members, with power to choose a fifth as president or umpire, each Goverment undertaking to abide by the final award. The Alabama difficulty is to bo referred specially to the Sovereign of one of the groat European States. The Emperor of the FRENCII having, as all the world knows, conspired against the Amerioan Union during the civil war, and the Emperor of Roans having expressed his sympathy with the cause of the Northern States, are, it seems, consi dered unacceptable for this arbitration. No such objection can apply to Xing Wiu.w of Prussia, whose neutrality was without a flaw, and whose perfect impartialityand goodwill would be equally trusted on both sides. The dispute as to the priority of possession of the island of San Juan. will. aooording to our contemporary, be referred to the President of the Swiss Confederation—a precedent which may be followed hereafter with advantage. But the great fact which has all the importance of an example is the establishment by the two great Powers which almost divide the globe of the principle of arbitration. Here if anywhere will be found the beginning of the end of war, if not the dawn of universal peace. • Till EXPRESS, TUESD. tit l6 &A-.t,v91 1 4 - _41 , 4!" ••••• • - MB. DISRAELI ON AUDACITY. THE PRISM= has a grievance. His sense of political dignity is outraged by the tactics of his opponents. The sting of his speech at the Mansion House last night lay in its tail, and his manly protest against " boastfulness and braggadocio" went to all hearts. "It is the custom of un " disciplined hosts, on the eve of a battle," said Mr. DISRAELI, "to anticipate and celebrate their " triumph by horrid sounds and hideous yells, " the sounding of cymbals, the beating of " drums, the shrieks and springs of barbaric " hordes. But when all that has occurred it is •‘ sometimes found that the victory is not to them " but to those who are calm and collected ; the " victory is to those who have arms of precision, " though they have made no noise." Save that it meals Earl RresiLL'e comparison of the noise made by the "inferior animals " in the Abyssinian campaign, while treading in the footsteps of their intelligent guides, to the Conservative exultation at having carried a Reform Bill, Mr. DISRAELI'S picture is as meritorious as it is lively. Nor is his claim to superior discipline for the Tory party at all overstrained. If report speaks truly the Govern ment Whip and Mr. SPOFFORTIT exercise a control over budding Conservatives which Liberal poli ticians cannot hope to emulate ; while " arms of - precision which make no noise," arc un doubtedly in the hands of Mr. DISRAELI'S friends. They possess the " sinews of war " in such abundance as to attempt the forlornest of hopes ; and to be ready to sacrifice men and material with an unswerving singleness of purpose worthy of the first NAPOLEON himself. But though the Conservative " arms of precision" make no noise, those wounded by them cry aloud ; and the dwellers in boroughs like Worcester and counties like Dorset supply, by their murmurs and protests, that element of sound which Mr. Disibtam deprecates aa the precursor of battle. The aim of a landlord at a tenant may be sure enough, but it is of the battue order of sport, and those receiving the charge feel that they are unfairly hit. Mr. DISRAELI, however, deserves the thanks of the community for having laid down the rule upon which the coining combat must be fought. " Audacity " is to be avoided by all his followers ; and " boastfulness and braggadocio" to be shunned as things of evil. There is some thing sublime in each advice from such an adviser. Vivian Grey inculcates delicacy and modesty to a naughty and self-asserting world ; and we all smile admiringly, and wonder what strange dish our clever conjuror will ask us to swallow next. MISUSE OF SACRED WORDS. DOE 3 anybody forget SYDNEY Fixrra's bewil derment at the advertisement of the " Margate " Hoy," with the appeal to " those friends of the " dear Redeemer who are in the habit of visiting " the Isle of Thanet " ? One of the Christmas Annuals announces, by an extract from the " editor's address," that one of its objects is "to bring peace, and love, and " no, we pause upon the word—into the " home." Although the name occurs in the very title of every Christmas Annual, as it does in the word Christianity, it jars upon the reader's sensi bilities when it arises suddenly in an advertise ment, being used in a sense which is not familiar in connection with commercial enterprise. A thousand things may be said in justification of such a use, but a hundred thousand will not make any considerable number of Christian readers acquiesce in it. There is a notice able tendency in the miscellaneous literature of the day to depreciate the force of words and phrases that belong to the high latitudes of ethics and religion. Such words as " holy" and " sin" have been deliberately degraded and vulgarised by writers the majority of whom knew very well what they were about and why they did it ; the change of usage commenced with cynical journalists who were comfortably convinced beforehand that the words had no real meaning, and thought it would be a clever thing to lower their force in the popular mind by making a diffuse application of them. Without in the least doubting the sin cerity and good intent of anyone who expresses in print, in connection with various commercial mat ters, a hope that he may be able to bring "peace, " and love, and" (as Dr. MACDONALD makes his Mattis say) SOMEBODY into our homes, we do venture to submit that the phrasing is open to question.

Barton, Mr. Joseph Harrop, cloth manu facturer, was summoned for intimidating voters. There were two summonses. The court was crowded. Mr. Monta_ga Williams appeared for the prosecution, and Mr. for the defendant. The proceedings were in stituted by the Society for the Protection of Vetere, es tablished in Trowbridge. The case forthe prosecution was that witness was sent for by his employer and asked for whom he was going to vote. He said for the liberal candidate, and he was then told that if that were his determination he must take his body where his head was, and was forthwith The magistrates did not collider that it was th e in tof the legislature that a cans of the kind should be preferred before magistrates, and thought it better to leave it to the parties to proceed by indictment at assize, or before the Court of Queen's Bench. There was a similar case against the name defendant for discharging a man named Samuel :Grist, and it we. similarly dealt with by the bench. The crowd in court seemed very dissatisfied with the decision. Both the sitting magistrates are, it is said, members of Mr. Phippe's committee, and Mr. Ludlow, the pliainnan, has been actively mum/wing on his behalf. The clerk to the magistrates (Mr. Pinniger) is the election agent of Mr. Philip*. ~~,.,~, IRrr I§ollllgim Y E. A. OUR CONTEMPORASDII. (THIS DAY.) ..:QUIT. The Time* describes Mr. Disraeli as the " Medi cine Mut" of the ministry. 'llse speak in which he re plied to tb. toed of "Me: Majesty's Ministers" LA night, was a sdruothe of asouranse. The same with which he assumed that, as a 'natter of oourae, be would be celled upon to reply twelve months kenos t• the saes hall to the same toast was worthy of Frederic Lernaitre in his best days. geareely less sticessdUl was his hops that the new Lord Mayor—the favourite liberal eandidate for Lambeth—would be able to devote his " undi- Tided attention " during his twelyemoade of cHca to the duties of the Maasies-house.

WOXAN 1011,1•01. The Post says the real reason against conferring votes upon women ts not far to mak. In thecae* of men voting for women, or women voting for men, the influence of the sexes would come into operation at once. It by a system of selection we could pick out as electreeses those women only who are of the strong-minded type, and eliminate all the weaker vessels, there might not be stuck to tear. But under ordinary circumstances, the fate of parties— the question whether whigs, tones, or radicals should sit on the right hand of the Speaker—or Speakers's—would, so far as female suffrage is concerned, depend on very dif ferent considerations. And where the element of sex in tervenes men are just as weak as women. The rderrapA dissents from the judgment of the Court of Common Pleas. The court based its decision ahnostexclu rively on the fact that women have not voted for centuries. To that argument there are two sufficient answers—first, that, according to a thoroughly well-established principle of our law, incapacity is not to be presumed from non-user ; secondly, that the present question could not have arisen but for Lord Romilly's act and the Reform Act of last year. The subject, however, can hardly re main where it is. More investigation and more mature consideration will probably serve to dispel the vulgar error that there actually exists in our Statute Book a Salic law governing the right of suffrage. CORRUPT PRACTICES ♦S The Star thinks the best hope that can be derived from the new statute known as " The Corrupt Practioes Act " is that the mode of trial on the spot by a single judge will be found efficient for the detection of material facts, which before an election committee of the House of Commons it was often convenient and possible to glees over. ROM FOR DfDIA. The choice of thego;ensinen the nomination of Lord Mayo as the new Viceroy for India, has, says the Herald, been vindisated earlier than we. expected. A deputation waited upon his lordship last week, urging upon him the adoption M an efAcient plan of irrigation. Lord Mayo's reply wan, " I mean to substitute motion for writing ;" and it is in this declaration that the Herald lees so much reason to hops for India, which has suf fered so terribly from drought and famine. THE MATTERS IN DISPUTE WITH AM ERICA. The Time. states that after long and earnest ne gotiation, carried on in a very friendly spirit, certain prin ciples have been agreed upon and a machinery has been provided by which the questions at issue between Great Britain and America may be fairly decided, each party stipulating to submit to the award. The three questions to be decided are the Alabama claims, naturalisation, and the old San Juan difficulty. For this purpose it bee been agreed between the two governments that a commision shall be appointed, consisting of four members, two to be named by each government, with the power to choose a fifth person as • president or umpire. To this commission will be referred whatever questions have dime mane the year 1863. The commission will not have any lack of work, since there are not only claims against us on the part of Americana, but claims against the United States on the part of the British subjects on matters arising out of alleged invasions of the rights of neutrals and damage done to neutral property during the war. The liability of the British government for the losses inflicted by the Alabama and her consort, is a matter to be judged by the principles of international law, and it has been thought that the decision of an independent azbitra tor will be more satisfactory than that of a commission, which would possibly decide only by a mating vote, It has, therefore, been agreed that this primary question of the liability of Great Britain shall be referred to • European Sovereign of the first clam The Emperor of the French and the Emperor of Russia were both inediniesSile, Jammu& as each might be represented as having acted somewhat as a par tisan during the war. But there is another sovereign of the highest rank to whom no such objection applies-- one whose character inspires the highest respect on both sides of the ocean. To this mousreb, and to the able lawyers whose advice he will command, will be submitted the question whether Great Britain, under the circum stances of the escape of the Alabama, is liable for the depredation which she committed. Should the decision be in our favour, the claim, drop to the ground ; should it be against us, the commission we have mentioned will receive the statements of the parties aggrieved, and pro. coed to examine each case in detail. Subiidiary to the Alabama claims was the grievance of the American government &Tieing out of the recognition by England of the Southern Confederacy as a belligerent The government of the United States maintains its opinion that it was treated with discourtesy and injustice, and we maintain the contrary. There the matter rests, the corre spondence is not withdrawn, but nothing more will be urged on either side. With respect to the law of natura lisation and allegiance as it prevails in this country, the Times believes that a protocol has been signed which will form the basis of more reasonable legislation. As for the San Juan dispute, the rights and duties of Great Britain in regard to that territory will soon be tranderred to the Confederation; but it was desirable to bring the dispute to a close, and the means raggeded seem fitting enough. It is understood to be the suggestion of the United States government that the subject should be submitted to the arbitration of the president of the Swims Confederation. As the arbitrator on the larger question is to be a king, the 21sies seas no objection to accepting for the smaller a respectable repdblicon magistrate, and will be quite prepared to accept his decision.

The birthday of his Royal Highness the Prince of Wales was celebrated at Sandringham yesterday by a capital dinner of roast beef and plum pudding, under the presidescy of Mr. F. Beck (the agent). The dinner took place in the carriage-room, which was fitted up for the purpose, at the royal stables. The health of the Queen, the Prince of Wales, the Princess of Wales, the Junior princes and princesses, were drunk with great enthusiasm. The Duke of Sutherland has left Stafford llouse, St. James's, for Dunrobin Castle, N.B. The duchess re mains is town.

Ritotrit.—Bitreszt.s, Nov. 9.—The bulletin published to-day announces that a slight improvement in the condition of the Prince Royal has taken place during the last two days._ The Earl of Mayo, the new Governor-General of India, has been created an extra Knight of the Order of St. Patrick. The usual number of knights was filled MOMS weeks ago by the appointment of the Marquis of Waterford and the Earl of Erne to the stalls vacant by the deaths of the Marquis of Downshire and Lord Farnham. The Turquie gives an account of an interview which took place at Constantinople, on the 17th October, between the Greek Patriarch and four envoys from the Pope, who had been charged by his Holiness to present he the patriarch a letter of invitation to the (Ecumenical Council, to be held in Rome in December, 1869. The envoys were very cordially received, and one of them at once produced the letter, richly bound in pamphlet form, and stated its purport in a few brief words. The Patriarch did act take the letter, but motioned the speaker to put it down. He than explained at some length the reasons why he could not accept the invitation. He had already, be said, been made acquainted by the newspapers with the principles expressed in the letter of convocation; and as they were diametrically opposed to those of the orthodox eastern church, it was with sincere sorrow that he was unable to subscribe to them. Already, in 1848, his Holiness had sent a similar invitation, and the eastern church bad met it by an encyclical explaining how widely its principles differed from those of Rome ; and this explanation had greatly afflicted his Holiness, as his reply sufficiently indicated. "As moreover his Holiness does not seem to have deviated from his principiss," added the Patriarch, "and as we on our side, thanks be to God, have not deviated from ours, we have as little desire to vainly cause him fresh sorrow as to open old norm" A discussion then followed, in which the Patriarch main tained that it was not the Greek church, but the Roman church which had departed from the apostolic doctrine, and denied the right of the Pope even to summon an (Ecu menical Council on his own authority. At the conclusion of the interview the invitation was handed back to the Papal envoys, who thereupon took their leave. The report in the Twinge professes to give the words of the speakers exactly as they were uttered, and the Nerd says it has every reason to believe that the report is accurate. LORD PALMIXISTON'a OPINION ON TIEN Intim Carrecn.—On the 2nd of June, 1834, after Lord Stanley (now Earl Derby) had stated that the oassaision to in quire into the Irish Church issued by timagovermasat " in volved a principle destructive of the very esteems of an established church," Lord Pahstestoe said :—" The government had made up their Wade to act on the pran diale that parliament was competent to replete the re. venues of the church." . . . 'lt woe has distinct and deliberate opinion that it was the right of the state to deal with the trust of the property of the church.

The cry of the Pays, " more press prosecutions," has been quickly responded to by the authorities in connivance with whom it was probably raised. The weekly paper conducted by the Deputies Glair Bizoin and Pelletan, was seized yesterday with a view to prosecution. In those cases it is never known for some time what are the passages incri minated. In the present instance there is an article headed Place a la Republique, advocating a republican government in Spain, which offers to an imperial public prosecutor an embarras du choir of hanging matter. The deputy for Paris mpu diates the argument, put forward as conclusive by General Prim, that you cannot have a republic without republicans. There were no republicans, he says, in Holland when she shook off the Austrian yoke ; waged civil war with the ocean—at once an enemy and an ally ; made her microscopic territory, the swampy Athens of the seventeenth century, the counting-house of the world, the entrenched camp of thought ; and after having, as a republic, beaten Philip 11., forced Louis XIV., the decrepid lover of Ma dame de Maintemon, to sign with his own royal hand the disgraceful peace of Utrecht. In like manner there were no republicans in North Ame rica on the day of the declaration of independence, and Washington's staff " the worst type of mili tarism, the military courtier," offered the crown to their general. But the honest Virginia planter was too prowl to be anything dee but a titian. He had found time in leisure moments to glance at the chronicles of Europe, and ke had /041111 how in the seals of degraded human beings there was nothing lower than Louis XV. dying on the dung mixes of his reign between an archbishop and • prostitute. The youngest substitute in the imperial courts could easily frame an indictment inculpating the above passage as an attack upon religion and the mostatuideal principle established in Prance by unrivaled unitsge. The following passage is a direct IMMO to dimeredit the reigning dynasty : The Asa& revolution proclaimed the republic and made the Rhine the frontier of victory. It would have agemated Europe had it found • Washington, bat to lead it only found • Bonaparte, and Heaven knows Oat Prance km paid dearly enough for the Carlovingian faro* played in a satin shirt on • mountebank's velvet covered platform by a lieute•ant of artillery. It is probable, however, that the indictment against the Tritswee will be founded ostensibly ea the offence for which the demi? National is pro *muted, that of announcing a public subsoriptioa for a monument to IL Baudin. The question ba t been asked with astonishment, what article of the code readers such • proceeding criminal. X. Jules Fevre, one of the very first lawyers in the world, and but the other day the official leek- of the Paris bar, has given the subscription th e sanction of his name. The discreet DEbato has 0 ,4 feared to publish M. Provost Parades name a s subscriber. The Temps of this evening, with courage that can scarcely be sufficiently admired under the circumstances, takes the bull by the horns, and, defying the government to go on with its prosecutions, deliberately associates itaelf with the delinquents by printing a subscription list for the monument, which is heeded by the resealed nuns of Dufaure, olden represented du /nisei., and • former minister of President Louis Napelm a Bonaparte. The Prows, although a thoroughly dynastic paper, regrets these prosecutions, but it reproved for its weakness by the now more eutho rised organ of imperialism, the Pap. It seems that the answer to the question, What law is there to prohibit subscribing for • monument to any citizen ? is to be found in a recent statute ineri nating " manoeuvres in France with a view to disturb the public peace and excite to hatred sad contempt of the Emperor's governeinnt." It was said by the opposition when this bill acne irtiri.l by a Bernie majority that the word " ruatvi,urr,li" Wlll elastic enough to make anything wb.it.v.. r at offence which the government might ‘l , ,r, to treat as such. The Baudin prosecution likely to bear out this prophecy. The Progris of Lyons and the 2.v& ar e The continued rise at the Bourse (Rente to day rose SBc., closing at 71fr. 74c.) is thus mentod on by the conservative France: It may be safety said that public confidence has moths; to do with this revival, wheh is contrary to all pr:. visions.

The last number of the Berlin KlaVeraisti•i, or Ilineh, has been seized for the publication of a can.:a. ture against the deficit in the Prussian budget.

A request to that effect from the Canada Conference was presented at the Liverpool Con ference in Magnet last, it being usual for the Canada President to be appouded in England. The reply re turned wan to the effect that the English Continence, waiving its accustomed right, would empower the Canadians to elect next r a president of their own choice ; and it is universally understood that Mr. Punshou will be so elected. As to another statement, that Mr. Punshon is to be dropped from the Legal Hundred in con demnation of his marriage, we can only say that he is at present a member of the Legal Hundred ; that no notice of such a dismissal as that above referred to has ever been given : and that we do not for en instant believe that such a proposal is in contemplation by any party wishw llll a, :ie y ,enn s e ot y t v a y oer t o ur e au mi rth r ::: e te n d e lir ic: cu rnce gt i ca t e l iliaho rn o rece ur in yc g ° ; l nl w y: o r if ieth n : r ot azi, :m .o beco .
