Tire bra en effrontery of the Military Proclama tions jut issued by Baron URBAN at Verona, and by Colonel ANTONY SCHMID at Perugia, is charac terised by little more than this difference, that the Marshal indirectly threaten, massacre, while the Colonel coolly attempts to justify it. URBAN being appointed Oovernor of Verona, in reward apparently for his midnight assassination of an innocent Italian family, iaanee to the luckless population committed to his charge an address, compounded of the threats of a brigand and the jests of a NephictopAeks. Arriving at Verona, probably in vary ill humour after his misadventure at Solferino, and perhaps just in time to hear from Count RECEBRIG of M. DE C.iiiira's Circular touching the murders be had so secretly committed on the Ticino, Baum URBAN im mediately discovers that the Imperial proelamatioa of the 30th of April, and those which suc ceeded it, announcing Verona in a state of siege, " have not been obeyed so implicitly " u their importance demands'" He declares that every official shall henceforth rigorously carry out martial law. "I em determined," says the new GOVIITOOT of Verona, with more energy than logical precision, "to make no exception in any ease, bat wia punish alike the act and the intention." How Baron Cantu proposes to detect the " intention" of violating martial law, without an "act" of viola tion, is by no means apparent. Perhaps, like an Eastern Pacha, he will presume a disloyal intention of whatever individual ill-chance may place in his way when the humour takes him. But Baron URBAN displays a laudable anxiety to be perfectly frank and open with the Veronese ; he would not on any account sesame sheep's clothing to disguise his wolfish &stem ; and indeed after the expose made of him by Count C.ivora, any reserve on this point would be rather superfluous. Ile therefore con cludes his address to the inhabitants of Verona with this ribald and inhuman jest: —44 In short, that the inhabitants may know " well with whom they have to deal, I declare that f• each of you may pet faith in me as a loyal " Austrian, but that I am resolved not to put say " faith in any of you" If it were worth while to pick to pieces this brutal clime:, sae would be tempted to ask what may be the mho of "the faith " of a loyal Amitelaa"wbe would calmly mosseinate as onetroadiss Weill, at rosiests? We merest that the Verlaine will preen to reciprocate the want of meadow* Masi CAROM URBAN is candid enough to probes towards themselves. Lot we wow twra b the proclamation of the Military Governer of Perugia. ill Is, of course, altogether is a different tone. With him the Saturnalia are over—fur the time, at any rate—while Busse Van ssi, on the other hand, appears to be gloating Over the fire prospects of his reign. Colonel ANTONT SCHMID, therefor?, writes in a palliative strain ; and is turning to hie address from that of Use" we torn from ferocity to false. hood. Colonel SCHMID spproaches the subject of his revolting deeds with a due sense of the in herent difficulty of justification is such circumstances. He begins, adroitly enough, by an immense assump tion of the sanctity and inviolability of Pootifical rights. Unhappily, however, " Pontifical rights" are bat the correlative to " popular wrongs:" and the greater the mess laid upon the former, the greater we anticipate the iniquity to be defended. " Sent " by my august Sovereign, Pto NONO." he begins, " to re-establish among you his legitimate govern " meet, I could have wished to avoid every kind of " collision." This is a very innocent beginning ; but the governor flounders terribly from the moment that he passes oat of his generalities. " They who " had taken possession of the public power," he adds, " have thought lit to carry their audacity to " the point of resisting the armed force; and from that moment my troops were bound to show themselves " faithful to a duty no less imperious than painful." If Colonel ANTONY Scum in had said nothing on the hideous massacre of Perugia, a question might bare arisen how far he had been able to control the lust, debauchery, and villany GI his troops. A cha ritable supposition might have arisen that these atrocities were not perpetrated with either his con currence or with that of his master, ANYONILLLI. But Colonel SCUMID has removed the veil. He has told us, in rfrect, that the Papacy aims to guars by wholesale massacre, and that he is the instrument for carrying out the system. Every one knows that all the available manhood of Perugia had gone forward to join in the war of independence, and that the mercenaries were sent thither from Rome because the massacre of rid men, and women, and children was easy work. If Cardinal ANTON ILIA thinks he can strike terror into the popular cause by means of mamma In the middle•of the nineteenth century, he weetally miscalculates the spirit of liberty which le arrayed against him. But Colossi ANTONY &TIMID comes forward with the audacious assertion, that " Now his " teak is to re-establish and protect public order r , 11. is close emaciation of deliberate massacre and public order appears not unnatural to a soldier in the pay of hie Holiness. The Colonel's programme for the happy future of Perugia, not less naturally, is that " the legitim►te authority of the Pontifical Go " vernment is established in its full integrity," and that "a military government is appointed which " will remain until fresh provisions are made." The address concludes with the words:— Inhabitants " of l'erugis, respect the laws, and I answer for the " discipline of my troops." In this assumes of the subordination of his Swiss guard., Colonel Salami takes upon himself anew the responsibility foe every outrage at Perugia, past or in store. It is not NNW curing to a decimated population to be told that their submission to a ferocious military government, against which their brothers are elsewhere actively contending, is the only altmsaties to their total massacre; but it is satisfactory to feel that every fresh barbarity of the Pontifical Government hastens it+ end.

Maassignenr Cccur, the bishop of Troyes, has is sued an eloquent mandate in favour of the war, which hes been very much noticed. He says that the Emperor Napoleon is fulfilling a divine mission, and realisia' g the work of which Henry IV. and Louis XIV. had only a vague presentiment. The let division of infantry of the army of Lyons his received the route for Italy. Numerous detach ments are going off every day from various parts of France to fill up the vacancies made in the ranks at Magenta and Solferino. The soldiers who are not drafted for the war envy the lot of their com rades who are going. It is said that no lees than twenty non-commiesioned officers of one battalion of rifles volunteered to tear off their stripes, in order to be admitted as privates in a new regiment of Zouares destined for Italy. INDIA. We have received letters and papers from India, the latest dates being Bombay, June 4, and Calcutta, May 17. The measures taken by Lord Clyde to allay the discontent of the European forces of the late East India Company, have resulted in the re-establish ment of order and discipline throughout the whole body. The Court of Inquiry at Meerut still holds its sittings, listening to the complaint of every man who chooses to appear before it. The artillerymen have generally expressed their readiness to serve her Majesty the Queen, their main objection resting solely on the fact that they had been transferred without having been consulted; and had their right to re-enlistment de nied them. The cavalry have taken up more decided ground, and in most cases, claimed their discharge as a right, the question of re-enlistment, in their opinion, being entirely optional and a matter for subsequent consideration. They state that they are now simply " civilians in arms," and are entitled to be sent home and conveyed to the places where they were originally enlisted at the government expense, the question of the acceptance of " bounty " being an entirely optional affair with them, some declaring their willingness to acoept the same, others insisting upon their immediate discharge without any con sideration whatever. Two companies of the 3rd Bengal European Regi ment (late Company's) have drawn up a petition to parliament on their transfer to the service of the crown. The petition is ably drafted. The following government telegrams had bees supplied to the Indian prem.: On the 11th May, 106 sowers gave themselves up at Climbs, on the Oodh frontier. On the 14th ideas, 200 rebels surrendered to Major Vaughan. force at &adonis Ghat. A detachment drove a body of rebels through the Bedonis Pass Into the Sooner valley, killing 80 men.

The Ex-Nawab of Furrackabid has selected Mecca as his place of banishment. It is understood he was given the option to decide within twenty four hours whether he would suffer death or retire from British territory, where his appearance at any time would render him liable to be hanged, and to state where he would wish to go. He, like a faith ful servant of the prophet, mentioned Mama as his intended place of residence. He expressed a wish to see his wife and children, but was prevented from seeing the former, permission to see his children only being given. The chief incident of local interest at Bombay is of an unfortunate character; the cholera having committed great havoc on the hill of Mahablesh war, at Wan, and Setters, passed on to Poona, and had thence descended on several of the thickly populated native districts of Bombay. The news from Europe had caused much excite ment relative to the sea defences of Bombay. The governor had errrived in Bombay from Mahe bleshwur ; the commander-in-chief will descend only as far as Poonah. There had been little alteration in the general state of trade daring the fortnight. Cotton had declined • little daring the last two or three days, owing to the recent advice. from Europe. Tho piece goods market had undergone no change, the de. mend being still inactive. The money market was a little easier, bat not yet in a oondition favourable to trade. Freig‘ts had declined Se. and 10a. per ton during the previous week.

The Independaace Belge says : " The outrageous conduct of the Swim Guards at Perugia is already producing disastrous conse quences for the tempor►l government of the Holy See. At Bologna the provisional junta has pub lished a proclamation recalling all the young men who have enlisted under the flag of Italian inde pendence; because, mays the proclamation, if it is a civic duty to take up arms to liberate one's country, there is a greater and more urgent duty still—that of defending our hearths and homes. In Piedmont and Tuscany public indignation has reached such a pitch that even the clergy are constrained openly to take part with it. Several pastoral letters have been written protesting against the conduct of the Pope's mercenaries, and labouring to separate the catholic cause from the doings of its champions. The Court of Rome will very probably Sod reseal to regret the rewards and eulogiums which it has lavished upon the conquerors of Perugia." THE MEDITERRANEAN FLEET. TRIESTE, TVZSDAY, JULY 11.

EXPRESS FROM PARIS. (PION 001 ORS PARIS, MONOLT EVENING. The evening papers Sr. nearly filled with the long and interesting reports of the commanders of carps d'armee at the battle of Solferino, and contain no news. It is reported from Milan that a smart encounter hes taken place at Villafranca between the Austrians and the French, in which the latter took 600 prisoners, among whom were several staff officers. A despatch, dated July 2 (not yet inserted in the lioniteur), has been received from head quarters, stating that at 7 in the morning of Saha , day the Emperor left Volta, crossed the and established his head-quarters at Valleggio, which is not more than four leegues distant from Peschiera. The Austrian advanced poets were but at a veiy short distance from Villafranca, which wes occupied by Marshal Niel. In the present disorganised and die coward state of the Austrian army, it sou doubted in the camp whether they would offer battle. t he information collected as the French army advance. confirms the accounts of the extraordinary exaspera tion of the Emperor Francis Joseph when he retired from the field of Solferino. The French say that the Austrians were so panic-stricken at the end of the day that they replied by threats to the attempts of their officers to rally them. There prevailed at the Bourse to-day a very strong impression, the ground of which it is impossible to state, that the war is drawing to a close. The ex pected news that the Diet of Frankfort on Saturday voted the Prussian propositions for establishing a federal army on the Rhine, produced no effect whatever. There was not a great deal of business dew, but quotations were very firm all day. The Rents rose 45e. both for cash and account, closing at 63fr. 130 c. Mobilier rose 15fr. The Orleans railway, which has lately been the favourite line, roes 22fr. 30c., Northern and Eastern, 7fr. 60c. each, Lyons, 6fr. 25c., and Western, bfr. ; Southern closed without variation. While the altramontaae party is receiving en couragement in Paris by the scolding given to the Sick Cant Carom acts vigorously against it at Turin. The Jesuits organ, the Armonia (the Italian Unitise) was seized on the 30th for an article com paring the late events of Perugia with those which took place at Genoa in 1849, when it became aeons ear, to quell an insurrection there. The next day the Armonia returned to the charge, and was there upon suspended. I bear that the Siicie is indebted to M. de la Guerronniire for not having been sus pended or at least warned the other day. A warm discussion took place on the subject, which lasted upwards of two hours, bat ultimately the director of the press enceseded in so far mitigating the wrath of the Pope's trisods in the ministry, that the &irk was let it with the eesteetesigia which you know et. CHINA. We have received advice* from Hoeg•tong to the date of May 6. The fullowing summary of nein is given by the Overland China Mail: The London Mail of the 10th March arrived berc on the nth el Iva The Ilea. Mr. Brae, the minbter to Peking and the new superintendent of British trade in China, arrived at Hong- Rag in the Magicians, on the 26th ultimo, bet did not lend officially till the 2nd instant, when he ammod charge of the superintendency. On Fridsy he goes from this to Cates, in order, it is presumed, to settle the site for the new factories, end shortly after will deport foe the nee*. Though Mr. Braes goes to Peking, in order to ex change the ratified treaty, It la geserally understood that his permanent resident* will be at Shanghai. Another arrival has been that of the new naval commander, Rear-Admiral Hope, C.B. Sir John Bowring lease for Ragland by this mail, after ten years in China, but no news bee arrived of the appointment of a successor. In thew circumetances the acting governorship devolves on Colonel Caine, the lieutenant-governor, who boa been minnected with the colony since its formation. Another colonial change is the resignation of the chief mordents, the Hon. Tudor Davies, who has accepted the office of Ceenntientner of Foreign Revenue under the Chinese government. The death of Pili.kwei, the Governor of Canton, bee given rise to a number of reports among the Chinon who rally know bees about their officals than we do ourselves. It was aid among them that he bad committed suicide, or had died of grief, on heating of the execution of his brother Pal-roes at Peking. who,as mentioned in our last twos, wee publicly decapitated or tampering with the papers at a Stem, examination, and whose death was the more igno minious ne it is the only instance of a Mandarin of the first meek having been publicly executed under the present dynasty. Keying and others who were condemned to death, "received permission" to strangle themselves ar otherwise make away with themselves. But it la very doubtful whether Pih-kwel woe a brother of Pih-auto, the only proof given being the commencement of their mama which they had in common. As we anticipated there has leen little foundation for the rumour, in regard to the re-establishment at Canton of the old Cobong, or authorised association of merchants, having the exclusive privilege of dealing with foreign traders. In our present issue we publish a lengthy correspondence on the subject between Mr. Conaul Alec.* and Hang, the Comptroller of Maritime Custom at Canton—an officer who Is generally called "The Hoppo," that haring been the name of a Mandarin who filled the office many years ago. The oorrespondeace shows there is no intention of re•ertabllehing the Cohoag, but that the principal Chinne dealers in foreign goods at Canton desired to do so in order to put a stop to smuggling.

MARYLEBONE ELECTION. (TIM DAY.) The nomination of candidates to supply the vacancy in the representation of this borough occaeioned by the elevation of Sir Benjamin Hall, Bast, to the peerage, took place this morning on hustings erected in Park-erment, Portland-place. Mr. Quo. TAMPLI24, the returning officer presided. There were three candidates In the field, with the prospect of a fourth turning up at the last moment, and the excitement, which was oorreapondingly pear, was in no way diminished by the heat of an almost tropical sun. Some time before the proceed ings commenced a crowd had taken up a torition in front of the hooting., and by 11 o'clock, the hour filed for the nominalist, there wee a Lyle amemblags of electors and nowelectors. The arrangements for the accommodatien of the parties have never been very remarkable in Mazylaboo• for their excellence, and on tune than one =alias the members have complained of the disproportion betas= the coat and the convenienoe of the hustings, To day the former 'rumblings on this bad won redoubled, the space partitioned off for the use of the candidates, their movers and secoodere, being ararcaly sufficient to accommodate half their number. The reporters have always had to put up with a few fest of planking, and at no other borough In the metropolis de they experience more difficulty in diachareng their duties than in Marylebvne. The hustings to which admistdon way obtained by ticket were Insufferably thronged. The three candidates, Colonel Dickson, Major Lyon, and Lord Fermoy arrived at very nearly the same time ; but the electors appeared to be more anxious to do honour to Mr. Cobden, who accompanied Lord Fernley, than to cheer their candidate, and they applauded lustily until the hon. member advanced to the front of the hutting., and made his bow In acknowledgment of a universal cry of " Cobden for ever!" The usual formalities having been hurried through, Mr. W. Williams, the member for Lambeth, administered the cue/away oath to the returning officer, who thereupon addressed the electors upon the °oration which bad called them together. While he delighted at the elevation of Lord Llanover, he could lot help regretting that the borough had lost so useful a member, and be only h sped they would succeed in finding a suitable miecessor. (Cries of " Lord Fermo)") Mr. koSs, of St. Pancras, proposal Colonel Dickson, end oongratalated the electors that there wee no tory candidate forthoomiog. Had it bees otherwise it would have been the duty of the three reform candidates to make op their quarrel, and fight the battle mingle hsitdrd. It had teen made a charge against the borough that no gentleman could contest it without being prepared to mend betimes 6,0001. and 7,0001. No • his opinion war, that had Mr. Bernal Osborne come forward, he would have been returned at an expense of only the cost of the hustings and the other neeeeaary end legal charges. He proposed Colonel Dickson, to vindicate the reputation of the borough, and S. believed the pliant gentlewan would be Muriel by the apontancons ex,rtions of the majority of the elector.. (" No, no.") Dr. COLLIN/ /brooded the nomination of Col. D:ckroa, The lion. A. Kr/memo, M.P., proposed Major Lyon as a oonsistcot and booed reformat, sad one who understood the local Interests of the borough. MI, RICHARD MITCKILL, • VIIKSIOSUL is the railway world, seconded Major Lyon's nomination. He was satis fied that had Mr. Cobden 0005 "posted up" in Matylsbone politic he would not have been there as the raffia/Ma of the representative of the effete whist party, sad one who was a true sea neither of the protestant nor the Roam catholic church. _ _ _ _ _ Mr. PETER GRAHAM prOpOrdi Lerd Fertnoy u e tried Mead of the por.plN sad as who had rehired to pnveat hba- MI to the t °rough Datil he wee otavinced that there WU no other tried Itb.r.a in the dell. _ Mr. FULNESS, churchwarden of et.

He would support a sound and thorough reform bill, while he educated the ballot an a protection to the voter Grand the dietitian of the parson or the landlord. He would pin a residential Mirage, and on all points he believed he should be found a better liberal than either Major Lyon or Lord Fermoy. He was locally associated with the boron_ ,11 while his family had been so for one hundred jean before him, and he contended that in all respects he would upon inquiry be found the preferable can didata of the three. (Chews.) Hs was spending a few hundreds over the election, but he was very much said hie two opponents were walking into thousands for paid agent. and cenvaisers, and on that account he was entitled to sup port, even if his political principles had not been in acoord with those of the majority of the electors. (Cheers.) Major LYON said, if elected, he would vote for nen testily In the war, though, at the came time, be should uphold the defences of the country. He was ea advocate for a speedy mettiment of the drumh ead quince, and opposed to all public grants of a religious character. He wee anxious to see a large sad th liberal memos of parliamentary reform carried, on o i r t ° 4l2 would get rid of rotten boroughs while it would add to the representation of large constituences, and give the voter the protection of the ballot. He wee favourable to the establish• ment of national education upon a religious bads, bat without religions teaching no entarian system could be safe or mo ccasin). (Hear, hear.) He had been accused of being a Tory in disguise. Ho wes nothing of the Dort. True mom years ego he advocated conservative principles • but he sub sequently changed his opinions from °earldom, and ever since he had laboured steadfastly in the cause of reform. (Cheers.) Hewes willing to open all public gardens and In- Windom on a Sunday which were of a national bearing ; but he should always resist the Sunday opening of places like the Crystal Palace, which partook rather of • com mercial than a national chemise. ( r, hear.) Having thus declared hieneelf, he thanked the electors for a patient hearing, and expressed a hope that they would place him at the had of the poll. (Cheers.) Lord FIIIMOY, in his address, repeated his conviction that his two opponents were tories in disguise, end acting in concert. Both had attacked him personally, not on political but on religions grounds. They were anxious to rabe the paltry cry of No Popery" to prejudice him in the minds of the skidoo ; but the electors might depend upon this, that it was hie liberalism, and not his religious principle., that rendered him obnoxious to hie opponents. (Cheers.) The political creeds of both Colonel Dickson end Major Lyon were under a cloud. No one could positively may what they ware, whether tory or reformer; whereas hl4 own views were those of a tried and thorough radical. (A mice, "Bo it,"my cockroach.") Col. Dictum was a member of the Ccauserntive Club; while Major Lyon we. a supporter of the Derbyita reform bill, and yet they appealed to the liberals of Marylebonelo choose either ofth,m in preferenoe to • caadidate wbo had ilways proved himself to be soonsistent supporter of every measure for advancing the intend of the people. (Chum.) He was not a mere reformer of a day ; but be could appeal to his votes in parliament to establish his claim to the title of • steadfast reformer. (Cheers.) He ems the advocate of a large extension of the suffrage, backed by the protection of the ballot; and he hoped at no distant day to see such a memoirs carried. (Flew, bear.) His sympathies In the mat ter of the war were with the Burperce of the French. He hoped he would torn the Auditors out of Italy, and that when be bad done that he would himself turn out. (A laugh.) He had, however no wish to me an overgrown army in this countiy. What was wanted wee rather &small but rfficient army, with • well manned and well-equipped navy; and in that light he should advocate expenditure, if he were returned to parliament. (Hear, hear.) He felt confident that he should be returned, because he was supported by such men as Mr. Cobden. who bad lent hire their aid on account of his pad political consistency. (Cheers.) He denied that be had any paid canvassers, or that he had sanctioned any ex penditure beyond what wee legal and just, and if he should be placed at the had of the poll it would be not owing to any improper influence; bat to the free and !montane ous wishes of the liberal electors of Marylebone . (Cheers.) At the clone of the noble lord's speech there were loud and general Mom for Mr. Cobden; but the retuning oMoer announced that the hon. gentleman's duties in the House of Continua had compelled him to quit the hustings some time before. The show of hands was then taken, and unequivocelly de clared by the returning officer to be in favour of Lord Fermoy. There wee a good show for Colonel Dickson; but comparatively few hands were held up for Major Lyon. Subsequently the returning officer discovered that the law required him to put the name of Sir Culling Earriley to the show of handy, and that was done. but not a *hale had was bald up. A poll was demanded on behalf of Colonel Dickson and Major Lyon, and fixed fee to-morrow from eight till four o'clock. The official de. &ration of the result of the poll will be made at 1 l o'clock on Thursday morning. On the motion of Lord Fmtvor, seconded by Colonel Dictum, a vote of thanks woe passed to the Morning officer, who briefly acknowledged the ooropliment, ant three cheers halm been given tor Lord Farm ,y and the Queen, the easemblage Moaned.
