Last evening Lord Stanley, M.P., presided at a meeting it Stockport, held to celebrate the opening of a new mechanics' institution. The building, which occupies a conspicuous position in the Wellington-road, one of the principal thoroughfares in the towns, contains library, news room, class-rooms, and a large lecture-hall, and has been erected at a cost of about 5,0001. Lord Stanley was aecbm paided on to the platform by Mr. J. B. Smith, M.P., Mr. Barley, M.P., Mr. Sidebottom, President of the Institu tion ; the Mayor of Manchester, Major Coppock, and several local notables. The hall was well filled in all parts. Lord STANLEY, after some introductory remarks, said, he believed that one of the chief controversies of our own age or the next age would be as to the limit to be placed on state aid in education. Without entering upon the question whether education should be wholly voluntary, or denying the value of government aid, it might be stated to the honour of mechanics institutes that they were based upon the principle of self-help, which was a leading characteristic of all national undertakings in tbia country, and were indepen dent of government support as well as of goverument coo troL Referring to the alleged failure of mechanics in stitutions, the noble lord said there had no doubt been many mistakes made at the outset. Thus there was at first too much generalination as to what working men ought to wish to learn, and in the midst of the discussion on that subject they had neglected whet working men did wish to learn. Again, he considered that the attempts to "popularise science" was a mistake. The attempt was made in a form which gave little trouble to the hearer ; but served no purpose as a mental discipline. Real students were rare in every class of society. Such persons they might encourage, but they could not create them; and science, in the proper sense of the term, could never be populerised. After touching briefly upon other causes of ill success, the noble lord reviewed the history of the Stockport Mechanics Institution, from its esta blishment twenty-eight years ago down to the present time. He particularly commended the competitive exa minations which the directors had introduced in connexions with the Society of Arts and the Lancashire and Cheshire Institutional Association. Such examinations gave a defi nite direction to the studies of the members, encouraged sound progress in knowledge, detected ignorance, imposture, and unreality, and had an important use in showing those who engaged in them what they were fitted for in future life. While encouraging the study of subjects of a prac tical character, however, they ought to beware of regarding the acquirement of knowledge merely in its relation to our material prosperity. In these busy hives of industry, where the practical was liable to predominate, it was more than ever incumbent upon us to cultivate the artistic and ima ginative faculties. The noble lord concluded by an eloquent reference to the prevailing distress in the cotton districts- He thought they did quite right to celebrate the opening of their building, even in the midst of the existing suffer ing; and he was glad to hear that the directing bad deter mined to throw open the dame of the institution free of charge to all persons that were at present out of work, but who had previously been members of the institution. He prayed that independence in circumstances might soon be restored to the working population, and that lode pendence of spirit might never be wanting among them. When prosperity returned itwould, be was sure, be a legiti mate source of satisfaction to the founders and promoters of the institution, that in a time of distress and uuexampled difficulty they had devoted their time and energy to the inauguration of an institution that would be of lasting benefit to the community. The noble lord resumed his seat amid long-continued cheering. _ _ . Notwithstanding these events, the ultra-Legiti mist politicians and the ultra•Lrgitimist priests hold that the only hope for an exiled royal family is faith in absolutism, and alliance with the Church, and with the nobles of ancient stock and superannuated ideas. Such was the conclusion come to by the gentlemen who met this summer at Lucerne under the presidency of the Duke of BORDEAUX and his sister, the Duchess of PARMA. The ORLEANS Princes and party have come to a precisely opposite conclusion. No doubt they em brace constitutional principles on their own merits. But they are further confirmed in that preferen 3 by the fact that the head of the NAPOLEON dynasty seems to grow more and more wedded to ecclesiastical, that is to say, to Papal interests. The extinction of nationality and liberty in Italy are ends advocated by M. La GUERONNIRRE and pursued by the EMPEROR. It is not surprising that under these circum stances pretenders to the throne who really under stand the times should hoist in opposition the old national standard of freedom from ecclesiastical as well as lay domination. It is impossible not to observe how strongly the language of the ultra- Imperialist organ contrasts with the language of those who are notably Orleaniat. The Jour nal des Debate declares itself frankly for Italian unity, Italian greatness, and Italian inde pendence, with abrogation of the POPE'S temporal power. A senatorial writer, completely in Impe rial dependence, abets, on the contrary, the sacri fice of all these, not only to the POP; but to the necessity of France having merely weak and divided states for its neighbours. La GUERON runts demands Naples evidently for MURAT, Rome for the Cardinals, and Northern Italy for Anarchy —for with such conditions it is evident that nothing else would prevail there. It is not our business to ask the Imperial Government whether it is prudent to allow two each schemes of government to circulate and be discussed side by side—its own, the purely abso lutist and sacerdotal ; its competitor, the consti tutional at home and the liberal abroad. It is in vain that the Imperial censors confiscate indepen dent foreign journals. From the press of France, however restricted, Frenchmen can still learn to despise the mean and dastardly policy of the Estrzaoa's friends, and the generous and liberal policy avowed and recommended by his enemies. Wo have hitherto spoken only of that which is manifest from the different organs of the French press, of facts which do not require disclosure or de nunciation on our part. II saute cur yeux, as the French say : it is plain to every comprehension that the principles attributed to the Imperial Go vernment by M. La CUERONNIERE are no other than those of the Government of the elder BOURBONS. The policy is precisely that of the old Legitimists, differing but in mere trifles from that of Potiowac. Had CHARLES X. succeeded in carrying out his famous ordonmuice, he might have taken La GUERONNIERE for his prime minister. But are these the principles, these the convictions of the Emperor Narotr.oN 111. Those who have known him long say, No. Such were not his views of either domestic government or of foreign policy when he made them the objects of his thought. M. DI PERBIONY himself would say so. By what influence, then, has the EMPEROR been reduced to a likeness to that which he once most despised, the Monarch and the Ministers of the first six months of 18301 We do not undertake to answer this question ourselves. We can only report the answer given in French society. There it is undiaguisedly said that it is through the Empress EUGENIE that the sacerdotal interest prevails with the EMPEROR. She is represented as the mainstay of French ultra-ecclesiasticism, and the main opponent of a liberal treatment of the affairs of Italy. The EMPRESB is a beautiful, and, we have no doubt, an amiable woman. But is it possible that the autocratic potentate who has in past Italy. According to letters from Rome, the Abbil Stellarili was received twice by the Pope, who handed to him two magnificent jewels as a present for his goddaughter, the Princess Pia. The value of the two objects is said to be 10,500 fr. Nothing of a political character was spoken of, and his Holiness inquired as to the state of Garibaldi. tkvervl other speeches were delivered in the course of the evening by gentlemen whose names are given above, and by others. GARIBALDI AND THE AMERICAN WAR.. The Wanderer of Vienna publishes the following letters, which, it states have passed between Geu. Garibaldi and the American oousul at Vienna : TO GENERAL GABIBALDI, ISPETILIA, ITALT. Vienna, Sept. 1.

The combat in which we are engaged does not interest us alone, bat the whole civilised world. The transport and enthusiasm with which you would be received in our country, in which you have passed a portion of your life, would be immense ; and your mission, which would be that of leading our brave soldiers to fight for the same prin ciple to which you have nobly devoted your entire existence, would be altogether conformable to your ' intentions. I shall consider myself, general, extremely fortun►te if I could receive your reply. I have the honour to be, du, Tgzonoitz CAIIIBIOI3, Consul of the United States of Amelia.

Still, the moment that I have obtained my liberty, and that my wounds are healed, I shall seize the first favourable opportunity of satisfying my desire to serve the great American republic, of which I am a citizen, and which is now fighting for uoiversal liberty.

THE Princes of the Osr.r.sais family have of late been moving towards a new political position, and their present attitude is remarkable. Some years since they were evidently tending to a com plete political reconciliation, not with the persons, but the principles, of the elder branch of the family. M. Guam strongly recommended " the " fusion," as it was called, and as a political pa triarch gave his blessing to the union of pure and quasi Legitimists. The world of ideas as well as of events has advanced since then, and the ORLEANS Princes seem to see the necessity of marching with it. An acquaintance with America and its institutions, and intercourse with its free and active ruinda, have evidently not discomposed them. But the lessons of the late events of Europe were no doubt far more convincing. The BOCRBON family has been ejected from Italy by its own infatuation. It is weakening its hold of Spain by the old fault of over-obsequiousness to the clergy. time shown himself superior to all counsel, has turned his back upon the old states men and the political experience of his time, only to be biassed and controlled after all by an ill-informed and superstitious influence, and to trust foolishly for prosperity and maintenance, not to the gratitude and adhesion of liberal France, but to the interest and temporary adhe sion of Popes and Cardinals, and of what is called the Church? Is this the condition of a mind once praised as stern and manly ? I.ATI~ iNT~.Li(:~Q~. ZIMMER FROM PARIS. PORTUGAL. THE MILITARY REVOLT. (MK OON OWN YARI• 4 , MONDAY Emma..

The general attendance was a bare average, and was remarkable for the scarcity of the foreign and rural elements, the company obviously consisting in the main of Loudon working people, who always take their holiday at this period of the year. As usual, the western annex attracted the attention of the great majority, and we were happy to perceive that every piece of machinery jute, ded to move was I put in motion for the shilling public. One ingenious little machine, which might easily escape notice , amid such a collection of Leviathans, was the else ! tro-magnetic printing press, patented by Mr. Har i risen. The principle of this press is to substitute electro-magnetic attraction for human muscle, in creating pressure. We stayed whilst several hand -1 , bills were printed off, and were quite stir prised to see the tenacity with which two soft iron 1 magnets, when charged from a galvanic battery, I held, or rather squeezed down the press, and printed the band-bill. Whether, as bawl presses are so rapidly being superseded by steam, this ap plication of electricity has come too late we cannot tell, but it is certainly very ingenious and to all appearance very effective.

According to this correspondence the Limayrac plan of withdrawing from Rome, leaving in place of the French army a declaration that France would not permit Rome to be invaded, is consi dered very serious at Turin. Rattazzi would be de lighted to give the required assurance that he would not make war upon the Pope, well knowing that his own subjects would soon get rid of him. The France admits, with piteous cries, that this tempo ral sovereign, so beloved by his people, would moat certainly, if left alone with them, fall a victim to internal revolution, "infallible, inevitable, and perhaps terrible." In furtherance of the pressure to be put upon France, it is alleged that at the reopening of parliament there will be very violent sp3eches delivered against the Emperor. It goes so far as to say that the trial of Garibaldi is only decided upon in order to keep up agitation in the country. Of course the way in which La France puts these things is worthy of all distrust, but I believe the main fact to be true that Rattazzi is as suming an energetic attitude towards France. He cannot remain minister upon any other conditions. Several French journals sneered at the sub scription to send out Professor Partridge to Gari baldi, and contrasted the disinterestedness of the great French surgeon, Dr. Trousseau, who had gone out at his own expense. It now appears that Dr. Trousseau has not gone to see Garibaldi at all. The story was a piece of " false news." The French minister at Washington has protested energetically against the capture at New Orleans of the French ship Ls Manche for want of a permit from General Butler. The doctrine of the Federal government, that foreign trading vessels, not carry ing contraband of war, require a permit to enter the porta of the union, is held to be wholly inad , M.

VISIT OF A PARTY FROM RICHMOND, YORKSHIRE, TO THE LNTEILNATIONAL EXHIBITION. Amongst the many expeditions of schools and work people and others who Loth last week and tor several weeks past have drily, except oo the high price days, visited the Exhibition there was one party visited it twice last week whose history and the energy and liberality with which it was conducted deserve a special notice, The party consisted of all the junior members of the Mechanics Institute of Richmond, iu Yorkshire, sod of 30 of the pupils of Gatterick Academy, near Richmoud. The president of the Richmond Institute (Mr. Edward Wood, F. 0.5.), a few weeks ago propouoded,at • public meeting of the inhabitants of the borough, called for the purpose, and presided over by the Mayor, hie wish to take all the junior members up to the Exhibition at his own expense, and to keep them in London under his own care for five days. The scheme was supported by the rector of the parish, enthusiastically received by the members themselves, and so favourably regarded by the parents or employers of the youths, that the names of all the junior members, to the num ber of 60, were immediately sent in as desiring to avail them selves of the offer. Arrangements were subsequently made with Mr. Wo dby Dr. Pollock, the principal of a large academy at Catterick, near Richmood, for adding to the party 30 of his pupils, who formed his first class. The members of the institute left Richmond on Monday morning, the 15th, amid the hearty cheers of their Heads and their own hearty cheers in return. The North-Eastern and the Great-Northern Companies had placed at Mr. Wood's disposel a carriage large enough to hold all his party, taking them through to London, and briuging them brick, and the conduct of both compruies was throughout most liberal and courteous. A t Cetterick, the next statical to Richmond, Dr. Pollock, with Mrs. Pollock, and his 30 pupils, were added to the number, and the whole 90 then proceeded on their way. By eight o'clock in the eveuiog (haying 'revelled 240 miles) they were all safely housed in lodgings which had been taken fur them in the Sussex Hotel, in Bouverie-street, Fleet-street. On Tuesday morning they commenced the business of their visit. The party visited first St. Paul's, thou the Post-office, then through the liberality of the owners the carpet warehouse of Messrs. Taplin and Co., iu Go sham street, and the warehouse of Messrs. Fester, Porter, and Co., in Wood-street, then the Beek and the Exchange, and the Crystal Palace. The police assisted the party to cross the crowded thoroughfares "If Ludgate-hill, Cheapeide, and King William-street. Scarcely one of the party bad ever been in London before • a large minority of them, especially amongst the members of the institute, had never been out of thew native county; and many had never been in a railway carriage or ten miles from their native towu. On Wednesday the party were conveyed in three omnibuses to the Exhibition, and spent the entire day there. The greeter part of Thursday was spent again in the Exhibition, and the latter half of the afternoon at the South Kensington Museum. On Friday the morning mss spent in the British Museum, then Cliaring.crues and Trafalgar-square were visited, and them Whitehall, the Houses of Parliament, and Westminster Abbey ; after this the whole party proceeded by a river steamer to Greenwich and back, and arrived in Bow-church yard in the afternoon to partake of an excellent dimmer which had been provided for them by Messrs. Copestake, Moore, and Co., in the large dining-room attached to their warehouse. Mr. Wood and Dr. Pollock both returned thanks to the firm for their great liberality ; and the party, and especially the boys, testified their appreciation of the treat by hearty Yorkshire cheers. Mr. Hughes, one of the partners in the fi rm, acknowledged the thank : in a speech of a nature to make the young men look up and look for ward, and deserve sconces iu life. All went over Messrs. Cupestake and Co.'s warehouse, and then returned to their lodgings. At nine o'clock they left King's-cross in their two carriages for a night journey home, and a telegram re ceived by a gentleman in the City at ten o'clock on S.sturday tourniog announced their safe arrival three quarters of an bone before. The News, insurance jouroal, furnishes the sub joined atatistios with regard to the winding-up of in surance offices during the last 15 years.

Mn. GLADSTONE'S BANQUET AT NRWCASTLIE-ON• Tine.—The arrangements are all but completed, and there is no doubt that the banquet will be a most suocessful thering. The New Town Hall will not. it is feared, be La enough to ac3ommoilates all who will wish to dine with the illustrious statesman. Out of the 400 dinner fikete to be disposed of, all of them are gone except about 80. The ladies' seats are tilling up fast also. The aquatic display on the day after the dinner promises to go off well. The river commissiouers have fixed upon the Gateshead new quay es the place of embarkation, and invitations will be sent to all the public bodies on both sides of the Tyne to joie in the display. Nothing will be wanted but • fine day to( ive éclat to the affair.—Newcastle Chronicle. ME.

A RAY TOE Tin CONTILDERATIS BUILDING ON THE BEERET.—It would seem, judging from the contracts sow in the heeds of the shipliudders and iron-plate manu facturers of this country, that the Confederate Government is exhibiting as much energy and resolution in the creation of an iron-clad fleet as it has manifested in the series of battle' which have throws the army of the Potomac, de feated and broken behind the shelter of the defences of Washington. Besides the commissions committed to other shipbuilders by the Southern Confederacy, sad which are being pushed forward with all poesible despatch, I large iroo-plated ram is now being constructed on the Mersey, without much attempt at concealment. We withhold the name of the builder for prudential rea sons ; but the fact is without question, and the ram, from the high character of her buihler, will be a most formid• able opponent when equipped for sea ; and should the blockade of the Southern coast not terminate before her arrival before Charleston, she will attempt to peas the Federal cruisers with every chance of impunity. In addi tion to this ram, and other contracts held by our ship builders—which, by the way, are highly flattering to their reputation, and which hitherto have bees finainially die charged in each instance (when (*omitted) with scrupulous punctuality—a vessel, now in the Brunswick Dock, the name of which we do not wish to give for obvious reasons, has a cargo *maintain principally of iron plates on board, ready to fasten en the sides of Southern venial waiting their arrival out at Charleston. The owners of this vessel are imbued with Southern sentiments • bet whether or not, we are too neutral in the gigantic tiOnitict raging throes the Atlantis' to allude too pointedly to the transaction. It seems very clear, from the present vigorous conduct of the Southern Cosfederacy, that thr South. at no distant period, will posers an ironclad fleet capable of coping as encomodully with that of the North as its smith lave triumphantly met those of the Federal government, if but the same dashing spirits that lead the armies of the South can be found to command it. Of one thug, however, we think we can speak with certainty, awl that is, that in the vessels built en the Mersey the South will have an advantage over the Federate tu strength of build, equip ment, and invulnerability. For thereat, their own edarefid will do, and we may vet bear of the gallant performance of more than one No. 290 before the announcement of peace gladdens the heart of all Europe. At all events, a few such rams as the one now building on the Mersey would make the nisi(); of the Southern blockade an easy tath— Liverpool Post. A CHRISM'S CARIGAISMNDOI. —A o inquest eat held at West Bromwich on Friday last, on the body of Sarah Shaw, an infant aged eve weeks. The 'lvo Der dated that the deceased had never been well from the first, harlot suffered from a bad cough, and on Tuesday last she went to the shop of Mews. Sidoo° and Pevehouse, chemists, High street, and asked for two pennyworth of cough syrup, men ' tiouing the age of the chill she wanted it for. She received a bottle with a black label on it, but there were no direc tions as to how it was to he administered. Oa her esters borne she gave the child half a teaspoonful, and shortly afterwards the child seemed to fall into a fit. Being alarmed, she took the infant to Mr. Kite's set where she had some medicine given her, ET the child died the following morning. Mr, W. 1 Kite. surgeon, deposed to making a lost -motive examination of the deceased. He had seen and had in his possceion the bottle of mixture, some of which bad beand es administered to the child, and it bad a strong smell of taste of opium, and he bad not the slightest DaSiMMOO stating that the deceased died from poisoning by opium. The jury found some difficulty in coming to a dot-islet., led ultimately twelve of them (there being thirteen in the paseo returned a verdict "That the demoted bed died from m excessive dose of opium incautiously administered." The Foreman, on behalf of himself and the jury, on returning the verdict, requested the coroner to ODMMUMMta their opinion to Mess. Hudson sod Pershance that ',efficient caution had not been shown in labelling the bottle. ad treaded that in future they would not send out medicines without proper written directions. The core• er careened DI the remarks of the jury. and signified his willingoem to accede to their request.— Birosinvhem Poet. ANOTHER DRUNKEN SUICIDE. —OD Saturday afternoon sn inquest was held at Birmingham on the bed? of William Sal•ell, who had been found drowned in the Worcester and Birmingham Coital, near the west end of the Edgb,ston tunnel.

IMPORTANT LIFEBOAT SERVICES. LITTLESTONE, KENT, MONDAY Maim Last night information was brought to this place that the Portuguese barque Cruz, from Hamburg to Oporto, with a general arm and having fourteen hands on board, was on shore. Thomas klockridge, chief boatman of the Coastguard ant coxswain of the lifeboat, thus re port. the ca e : "The chief boatman in charge of the Romney Coestguard station and his crew of six men arrived as this station about 9 o'clock last evening, with information that a ship was on shore abreast of No. 2 Battery, Duugenees division. It was blowing hard at the time from E.N.E. with a heavy sea, and the night very dark. Knowing it was not possible for any Coastguard galley to put off from the shore, it having previously blown fresh gales, we immediately launched the lifeboat of the National Lifeboat In. mitatioo, but owing to the flatness of the shore and the sea running in heavily, we had a very laborious task in lunching the lifeboat, there being so much broken water. We had also about four miles to pull to the wreck, which we reached about 11.30 p.m., when we found the crew in a very excited state, slid in much confusion. They were about to abeadoo the ship in their own long but, but, observing the lifeboat, they cheered our approach. Had it sot been for our timely arrival the ship's bust must have swamped with her crew. After we had been on board about an hour we succeeded io pacifying the crew. "The sea was making a clear breach over the ship, and the mew act knowing each other's language, much confu sion wu caused, but in the mad we succeeded in getting all hands co board the lifeboat and ,ffecting a landing. The barque, although having had the amistanoe of two tugs at the next tide, is still oo the shore, having lost her rudder and keel, and is now dircharging her cargo. "1 beg to state that this lifeboat behaved remarkably well, and is well adapted for this locality, or we should never have succeeded iu effecting a launch, and I have also to add that I have received most valuable services from Mr. John Holton, chief boatman in cluune of the Rooney station, who accompanied me in the boat, knowing the whereabouts of the ship on the store.—l have, km,
