Tns elinnsine.s of the correspondent of a Belgian annpapior has given an official writer in the Aiwa— seer ea opportunity of at once displaying his own selroitisso nod gratifying the thousands of readers, left in sad out of France, who thankfully accept the but assietance to retain their belief in peace. The gems eenertion that a daughter of the House of BATOT bad been bargained away for bayonets, and the suggested inference that French interests had been made subservient to a family alliance, would probably have been thought unworthy of notice by the French Government but for the occasion it afforded of penning a serviceable paragraph in which the rumoured Treaty of offensive and defensive Alliance with Sardinia might be mingled confusedly with vague contradictions. The existence of the Treaty, however, is in reality neither affirmed nor denied; fur there is no sense in which the official paragraph throws doubt on the Treaty in which it does set equally call in question the marriage. As our Paris Correspondent truly remarks, the oracular words of the Moniteur do not touch the real point which excites public curiosity. If England could separate herself morally, poll tisally, intellectually, and commercially, from the Continental world by the seven leagues of sea which divide her from her great rival and ally, we might let the rumours of war that are now agitating Europe pees by on like the idle wind. We might wrap ourselves snug and warm in the happy con -111601111718111 of our ordered freedom and assured tran quillity, and let dog eat dog from Paris to the Pa Witha Channel fleet well manned and our camps es the alert, we might regard a " meeting " between Franco and Austria with the easy sprayings, of logo, when he set a fool and a madcap by the we, and chuckled at the thought that whether sae or the other, or both, were damaged in the encounter, any how his game was made. But we must take the world as we find it, and we cannot at the same time be what Rome was and what we were to Rome some eighteen hundred years ago. We cannot, from the mo.tt prudent motives, and for the most unselfish considerations of practical cx- pedieney, obliterate oar past history, or ignore our present position on the map, or evade by any diplo matic process the immense responsibilities which we are taught to believe a higher Power than ancient destiny has attached to universal dominion, and to the foremost rank in Christendom. When, there fore, we unanimously and emphatically declare that in the hour of tempest we shall ride at our anchors and let kings and peoples drift at the mercy of the winds and wares of ambition and revolt, we do not and cannot pretend to be indifferent to the dangers which we share, though we alone survive them without hurt. The truth is that we do not even, as some slippage, share these dangers at • convenient distance; we are in the very midst and thick of the storm. England, at all events, is not " a " geographical expression." Daily and hourly we have came to exclaim, " COD bless the narrow seas " that keep us off;" but the fact remains that we are an island—we were about to say, in name only; and that to all intents and purposes we are a Conti nental, as well as an Indian, an American, and an Australian Power. In the present emergency we are especially invited to remember that we are a Mediterranean Power, and that no diplomatic or military transaction on the shores of that contested lake mobs alien to the holders of Gibraltar, Malta, and Corfu, and of the gates of the East and West. We are not, then, " ultracrepidatiog," Y COLERIEXiIt would have said, when we claim to feel an inte rest in the " tit" of that old Italian boot which has borne the spurs of so many masters. The people of England have thoroughly made up their minds on the subject of intervention ; they are wisely and heartily sick of the very sound. They have wasted blood and treasure enough, and elicited ingratitude enough, for all time to come. But, in tervention is ono thing—indifference another. Eng land is continually giving hostages to Peace and Freedom abroad ; for without freedom there can be no peace worth a year's purchase, and without peace what becomes of English capital and com merce? We may do the carrying, and the eeeimieseriat, and the gunmaking for all the corn- Instants at once; supply them with all the engines of mutual destruction, to their hearts' content ; bat it would be taking a eery narrow view of the emditions and consequences of European war to conceive it possible fora power such as England to suffer no damage from the burning houses of her customers beyond the sea. We must hare peace , abroad if peace be possible ; and if existing treaties hare failed to establish a lasting paste, they mast be , revised by an arbitration which shall represent the present and provide for the future, se the Holy , I Alliance patched up the past. Is peace in Europe passible so long as Italy remains a hotbed of iasurrectionary diacontents? L it pos sible, without wasting time and ingenuity on ideal and utopian creations, and without pausing to in dulge in historical exercises for the sake of proving that Italy has never been Italian—is it possible, we say, to devise any method by which Italy shall be. not rec,nstructed after some fancy type, bat ren dered a quiet and even useful as well as ornamental member of the Europ. an family? Surely, without reference to Imperial or Royal conspiracies, or seerst articles of alliance, this it a clam tion to which it may be well worth the while of public opinion in England to aid fa Orin a dallalt• answer. It is clear that the settlement effected by the Holy Alliance has settled nothing, and that its provisions and limitations hare been again and again proved inadequate to the preservation of the Balance of Power and of international tranquillity. The inter ests of nations were, no doubt, beneath the notice of a dynastic Congress ; what was a people in the eyes of • NICTITRNICII or a METTERNICH'. master but a drove of dumb and patient cattle, good to stock the farm of some royal or imperial landlord, good to fatten and to slaughter ? But the stability of thrones was the dominant thought of the Congress, and we know what has become of the restored BOVIUSONS and the banished BONAPAMISS ; and we know how easily the cobweb perpetuities of the Treaty have been brushed away by one or other of the Powers whenever a new wing has been wanted for the edifice of despotism. The result of the pious labours of that august Assembly which invoked the most solemn of all sanctions in its behalf, has been chronic insurrection, ceaseless intrigue, universal discontent. Besides, if we compare the Europe of our own time with the Europe of forty-four years ago, we may reasonably conclude that, in spite of all reactionary influences, the most oppressed nations have outlived the beneficent vows and promises of their holy sponsors; and that by the aid of science and advancing civilization, they have arrived at years of discretion, and are able and willing to take care of themselves. One thing is certain; the vast and complicated commercial interests of England will not endure much longer a provisional and precarious, because arbitrary and unnatural, Balance of Power in Europe. We cannot subsist on ' a weak and timid policy de die in duns for the con venience of indolent and incapable Governments, which have neither the heart nor the brains to con struct • large and lasting, because natural and right ful, basis of international security, and whose policy consists in • continual adjournment of difficulties. Better to face the deluge at once than to be always looking out for squalls. England at least has nothing to gain and everything to lose by a policy of post obits. A commercial and manufacturing people has three great wants—confidence, certainty, and freedom ; and it is too evident that the actual state of Europe is • state of insecurity, uncertainty, and servitude. THE EXPRESS, WEDNESDAY EVENING, JANUARY 26, Ib9• INDIA AND CHINA. Calcutta and Hong Kong journals, in anticipation of the Overland Mail, have come to hand by way of Trieste. Their dates are, from Calcutta, 22nd of December; Hong Kong, 16th of December. The Calcutta Baylis/imam speaks desparagingly of the military operations carried on under the Com mander-in-Chief, and asserts that the real object of the government is " not to cut up the rebels, but to ooeroe them into an acceptance of the promised am nesty." The Englishman adds, " While writing this we learn that General Napier overtook the force under Ferozeshah at Remade, and defeated it with great slaughter, thus clearly proving that as soon as the direct influence of the Commander-in- Chief ceases, and generals act upon their own judg ment, a great and crowning victory is the result." The Governor-General had made up his mind to return to the Presidency, and his establishments had received orders to hold themselves in readiness. His lordship wu expected to arrive in Calcutta by the 14th of this month; he will resume the office of President in Council, hitherto held by the Hon. John Peter Grant. The Lieutenant-Governor was still in the districts on his official tour. The Rajah of Shahgurh has been pardoned by government. he Court. WINDSOR, Jaw. 25.

Deeptchm from the Oorentore of the North American Provisoes and from the Lord High Commissioner of the Imam Wands were remind yesterday at the Colonial-office. The Berlin correspondent of the Nord, writing on Sunday, says—" Her Royal Highness the Price xis Frederick Wilßam drove out again to-day la her carriage . Site appears marvellously well. Her face looks fresh and ruddy. A good story is told of the Regent rolative to the anti• cipated event. The colonel of artillery, who received the prince's orders ea to the number of salvos to be fired on the occasion, appeared to ht shate before he withdrew. ' Well,' said the Regent, 'You seem to have sourethiog on your mind." Why—yes—your royal highness.

The intelligence from China is unimportant. Since the Earl of Elgin left Shanghai on a trip up the Yangtzekiang, nothing authentic has been heard of the expedition ; and as his lordship had been absent four weeks when the mail steamer was despatched, intelligence is looked for hourly. His Excellency Baron Oros, Ambaleadeur Fran cais, left Shanghai on the 27th ult., in his Impe rial Majesty's ship La Place, bound to this port. But the La Place had the misfortune to run into the mud off one of the Chusan islands, and lost her rudder; in consequence of which his Excellency had to shift his quarters to her Majesty's ship Nimrod (soon apprised at Ningpo of the accident), and return to Shanghai. Thence the Baron and suite again departed on the 7th, and finally arrived here in the English mail-steamer Aden on the II th instant. The La Place has been towed back to Shanghai by her Majesty's ship Inflexible. His Excellency Mr. Reed, United States' Com missioner, left this port for America on the Bth instant. The Legation is now in charge of the Chinese Secretary, Mr. S. Wells Williams, LL.D. At Canton matters are progressing steadily, though Major-General Sir C. T. Van Straubenzee's policy of keeping the garrison closely confined within the wall, is loudly decried. The state of affairs at Ningpo is alarming. From Foochow-too and Amoy reports are favourable. A rather alarming fire broke out in the centre of the city (Hong Kong), on the 6th December, and only by the most extraordinary exertions were the premises of the Oriental Bank Corporation kept from destruction.

EXPRESS FROM PAWS. GLOM ova 011 S CORILIIIPONDEST.) PARIS, TUESDAY EVENING. The demand of the Princess Clot;lda's band by General Niel and the hnnying on of the menage are events which keep up the feeling of alarm. I noticed yesterday that the Moniteur, in announcing that the marriage would " shortly " be celebrated at Turin, studiously avoided saying whether the Prince was to come back to Paris first or not. Some semi official journals stated that he was expected at the Fatale Royal this day. It now comes out, however, that the marriage is to be solemnised at Turin on Sunday next. The fact, which is confirmed on all sides, is thus announced in the Patric : The marriage of his Imperial Highness Prince Napoleon with the Priocsse Clutilla will be celebrated on Sunday next at Turin. The ingest pair will leave foe France im mediately after the ceremony. They will arrive at Mar seilles on Tuesday, where a brilliant reception will be given them and where they will stay two days. The Princess Matilda will go to Marseilles to receive them in the name of the imperial family. In all probability their imperial bigh ts:mass will arrive in Paris towards the end of next weak. It is not yet known whether they will make a public entry. The Constautionncl mentions the 9rd of February as the date of the probable return to Paris of the newly-married couple. A letter says that a dotation of 20,0001. sterling a year will be asked for from the Sardinian Chambers, that being the customary portiOn for a princess of the House of Savoy. The journal de Cherbourg contains the following news which smells woundily of gunpowder : The Minister of Marine hoe jnyt Informed the anthorilla of this port that the nonentities of the service requ'm that the line ships Arcole, Alen cadre, and Donawerth should join the Meditsrmatan squadron as seen as possible. Them three vessels will ecoordlagly leave Cherbourg almost iminc !l ately. The steam frigate Sand, now completely armed, Is coaling, sad will probably sail fir Toulon at the end of the week. The fast-sailing steam frigate La S iuvereine is ac tively arming. It lasts° said that this mixed vessel St. Louis is to be armed. _ Letters from Marseilles continua to speak of prc parations for war; 1,200 mules have bcen lately purchased, and 35 new storehouses are ordered to be built. _ _ _ The Bourse was agitated, and the rise of yester day has been effaced. The Rente fell 20c. both for cash and account, closing at Orr. 503. and 68b. 45c. Mobilise fell llfr. 25c. The Orleans railway fell 13fr. 750.; and the other lines about 2fr. 50c. It is rumoured that Austria, finding herself menaced, will very likely begin the war. The Inellpendance Beige was seized to-day, pro- bably on account of its containing some answer to the equivocal contradiction in the Moniteur, of its statement that an alliance offensive and defensive had been signed between France and Sardinia. The Countess de Hatzfeldt has arrived in Paris from Berlin. Prince Mirza-Hamid-Ally Behadoor, son of the Kieg of Oude, and grandson of the Queen of Oude who died in Park shoat a yes , ago, arrived at the Hotel Laffitte last night with a numerous coke. M. Roger de Beauvoir, the well-known poet and dramatic author, and M. Bache, the actor, were this morning acquitted by the Court of Correctional Ap peals of a charge of having conspired to represent M. Bache as a police-agent, for the purpose of ex torting a signature to a deed from Mdme. Daze, M. R. de Beauvoir's mother-in-law. The court below had found them guilty, and sentenced M. de Beanvo'v to one year's and M. Bache to three months' im prisonment. AUSTRIAN ITALY. A letter from Milan Oates that the arrival of fresh troops continues. Everything is in movement. The board of the United Railway Companies has received orders from Vienna to dismiss instantly thirteen of its officials specially named, one of whom was the chief engineer, Professor BolH, a son of the chief director of all the primary colleges in Lom bardy. The managing director of the railway at went to the Archduke Maximilian, and repre sented to him that at the present moment he could not guarantee the regular running of the trains if he were to dismiss the officers in question. The Arch duke caused his representation to be telegraphed to Vienna; the answer was, that the director, in case he wanted them, must immediately appoint fresh officers, but that the parties named were to be die missed forthwith. The Prussian Gazette adds, that the individuals thus summarily dismissed had Aiken au active part in the last revolution. The Opinions of Turin of the 22nd, in canvassing the question of peace or war, states that France has consented to certain concessions to England in return for the neutrality of that power in the Italian question, and is of opinion that England will never enter into a war for the purpose of supporting Austria. The neutrality of England will simplify the question considerably, since Prussia also will certainly prefer being a looker-on to risking her for tunes in a war. The Italian question, the writer concludes, has ceased to be a revolutionary one; it is now a political and international one, and cannot, to; before, lead to a general war ; its solution will be a guarantee of durable peace, which Austria is using every effort to prevent. SPAIN. The Madrid journals of the 20th have arrived. The Garetle contains an order of the Minister of Finance to the iff-ct that, in consequence of a com plaint made by the French ambassador relative to the treatment by the Customs' authorities at Corunna of a French vessel, the Nlathilde, ships which, from stress of weather or other circumstances which can not be controlled, shall have occasion to put into Spanish ports shall not be obliged to make to the Ctudoms any declaration of the nature, weight, dcc., of their cargoes. The Senate was continuing the I discussion of the bill authorising the government to levy the taxes. In the course of the -debate, some reference having been made to the conduct of Mar shal O'Donnell in the insurrection of 18.54, the mar shal said that the events of that time had not yet been fully explained, and he was content to leave history to judge them. PhiMsts.—The Chamber of Representatives of Frusela have voted an address to the Prince Regent, of which the following is an ex'rect :—" Your royal highness, fully recognising the high importance of our tuk, invitee us to second your government in the path width you have chosen, by reminding us of the miseion of Prussia, her glo rious history, and her national traditions.

TBB LATE PAUL AcVDBIyT TO PROFESSOR W4280N. CORONERS INQU E ST. Yesterday afternoon Mr. Beryeant Payne held en inquest at St. Thomas's Hospital, touching the death of the Rev. John Watson. Frederick Sinclair deposed—l live at No. 6, Bennett's plaoe, Oratecharch-street. I came over London-bridge barmen nine and ten o'clock on Thu reday evening loot, and what I got on the City end at the at aide of the way, 1 saw the deceased thrown viokatly into the road by a cab, and as he warn falling I saw one of the wheels striae his fart. I did not see any omnibus near him at that time. Coroner—Did you see what root of a cab it was Wimem—lt was a Hansom cab, end going extremely fait. The driver suddenly pulled up, but as soon a. the de ceased fell he drove on again, and 1 could not recoguire the man who drove It. John Maths'!, porter at the Deptford Infanta:in, fait —I was coming over London-bridge, from the City, between 9 sad 10 o'clock on the night in queation, and when nearly opposite Fishmongers' Hall I saw the deceased lying in the road, about three garde from the kerb. I assisted him (toot the ground, and then I perceived his face was emaehed in, and blood sporting out, I immediately fastened a handker chief round his face, and, with the aid of snottier man, got him into a cab that was passing, and went with him to Bt. Thomas's Hospital. I saw nothing to cause the in jury, and do not know how It occurred. Mr. Henry (lavas, house-eurgeon at St. Thomas's Hos pital, said—The deceased was brought in about a quarter to 10 on Thursday night last. I immediately attended him, and perceived that the nose was torn from the face. The boner and cavity of the fees were smashed, and the palate of the month torn away In three places. The left eye was lowered, and fell into the socket, and a portion of the scrap was laid bare. We sewed up the detached parts as quickly as possible, and did all we could to preserve life. The doomed remained perfectly sensible up to about half an hour before his death, which took place on Saturday afternoon between two and three o'clock. I have Once made a post-mortem examination, bet I found no other injuries than those described, which were gullicient to cause death. It Is my opinion that the pole of an omnibus or shaft of • cab might have inflicted the injuries. A abort time before the rev. gentleman died I andmethod him to say that be thought a cab did it. He WA then perfectly sensible. The Rev. G. A. Evans, of Saint David's-chapel, New cross, said—l knew the deceased. He was president of Hackney College, and was at Saint David's-char - el on Thursday evening, when the Right Hon. the Lord Mayor presided at a meeting of the Young Men's Christian Asso ciation. The deceased was in his usual good health, and I left him at the railway station about live minutes to nine to proceed to London. Cormier—Has anything been heard of the cab that was seen to throw him down P Inspector Hodges, City police—No, sir; every inquiry has been made to and out the cabman, but untotunately with no emcees. The coroner here briefly summed up, and the jury re turned the following verdict, That deceased met with his death by reason of the injuries he received, bat how and by whom there was no evidence to show." THE ACCIDENT ON THE MANCHESTER, SHEFFIELD, AND LINCOLNSHIRE RAILWAY. We have remind the following official amount of the above accident : "On Elanday night the 5 p.m. London down train nn off the Hoe at Pigeon-bridge, seven miles from Sheffield, about 8.30 p.m. The engine ran into a spoil-bank,' and went over on its side, taking the bresk•van and one carriage with it. The other coaches were left acmes the line. The fireman states that he heard a loud crack, and immediately put on his break, but before he but succeeded the engine left the metals. The cause of the accident was the breaking of the crank-axle of the engine. The driver and fireman, and loading guard, were shaken, and some of the passengers including Mr. Hawksley, C.E., received contusions. All the passengers in the train, except three who remained at Shef field, were brought on to Manchester, where they arrived two hours and a half after time. The gentlemen injured are doing well." FEARFUL BOXIER EXPLOSION. A fearful boiler explosion occurred upon the Brunton and Shield. waggon-way on Monday. This line is wrought by *tending ermines and incline, and the coals sent down from the oollieries by it are shipped in the Northum berland-dock. An engine-man named William Brunton, who wee both eugineman and fireman, was in charge of the middle engine, and it appears that he had cleaned the boiler ' out on Saturday. He was working a set of laden eraggen when the boiler exploded with fearful violence. It was lifted from it. seat, and torn into four portions by the force of the explosion. A large portion was thrown some distance across three lines of railways. Another portion wee pitched against the cottage occupied by Brunton and his wife, but indicted no injury upon the inmates. A eel of waggons were being run down en incline at the time the explosion occurred. A portion of the boiler in its flight cut in two the rope that was eating the waggons down the ve.y, and they immediately commenced to run "amain." A woman end a girl were riding upon them at the time, and as the speed of the wag. gone increased they screamed moat piteously. The woman Jumped out, but her legs got entangled with the loons rope attached to the waggons, and she was thrown down and dragged after them. Fortunately the lad who had charge of the waggons had presence f mind to loose the rope and throw it off, and thus save her from further injury. A man belonging to the railway alto jumped up behind and saved the girt. The semitone gathered speed as they got on, and dashed down to Percy Main with considerable velocity, where they cams into collieinn with some standing wag gons, and a considerable amount of damage was done. The en,einnhouee was completely demolished by the explosion, and poor Brunton was buried under the dos, is. A number of men were employed to dig hit. out, and his body was recovered an boar and a half after the accident. The poop fellow was quite dead, and was dreadfully braised. The cause of the explosion is not known, but it is supposed to have been a deficiency of water in the boiler. 8110C.UNG NURDBR IR CAY4D.A. On the Bth instant a brutal and deliberate murder was committed in Hamilton, Canada. The Throttle Glebe says: " The victim is a woman named Eliza Welsh, sold to belong to Toronto, and the murderer is a man named. John Ileagham, or Mitchell, who posed as her husband. The murderer, for sows must term hire, has lately been employed in the vicinity of this city in the capacity of a railway labourer. The facts of the awful tragedy, so for se ..nr reporter could learn on the spot Omen) , after the fearful currerce took place, are as follows. It appears that Mitchell left Toronto on the afternoon of Thursday by the teeth for Hamilton, accompanied by the woman Wel.b, with whom he cohabited, and an infant stout 3 months cid. On reaching Hamilton they proceeded to a small tavern situated cm the south side of Yorkedreet, between Bay and Park•areeeta, kept by a person named Morden. The unfortunate woman told the landlady of the saloon that her husband's none watt Meagham, and that he was on Lis way to work on the Hamilton and Port Dover Railroad.
