Ome great principle at least will have been affirmed by the Conference of London, if it should succeed in carrying out its avowed programme. It is the principle, unfortunately,wbich of all others was least in need of affirmation at the present time on the European Continent. Under the pressure of the two German Powers, at the instance of Great Britain, with the approval of Russia and of France, with the reluctant acquiescence of maimed and mutilated Denmark, this Conference of Lon don proposes to set the seal of a solemn European sanction upon the right of the strongest. This is now declared to be the true virtue of a Treaty signed by sovereign Powers—to legalise violence, to ratify spoliation, and to justify the wrong. This is what is now meant by the Balance of Power, for which torrents of the best blood of the most civilised nations have been shed, in days not long gone by. This is what is meant by the figment of a public law and an international equity adminis tered M a high court of appeal by a select tribunal of monarchical plenipotentiaries. There are ministers and even members of Parliament who still talk with a surprising seriousness and unction of the Balance of Power, as the three partitioners of Poland talked of it half a century ago, and who gravely and imperturbably pretend to believe in the efficacy of treaties and Conferences for preserv ing peace, maintaining landmarks, settling questions of partition or succession, guarantee ing the security of the weak against the assaults of overpowering ambition and cupidity. It was always the favourite idea of despotic courts, this diplomatic police of the Great Powers for in terfering everywhere—except in Poland. Nor has it been an idea of despotic courts only ; England has always accepted it in theory, and acted upon it in all great crises, and only denied the compe tency of such a tribunal for dealing with domestic quarrel'. In truth, the theory is as old as diplo macy itself, and is at the bottom of all the arti ficial calamities which the nations of Europe have suffered since diplomacy was invented. Like many other theories fruitful of mischief, it is the distortion of an admirably humane and beneficent idea, which, if there were no such thing as selfish ness in the hearts of kings and peoples, might have sufficed to inaugurate a millennium of peace and concord. What this figment of the Balance of Power has done, or rather what the diplomatic priest hood which has developed it into a dogma has done for the peace of the world, is this. It has consecrated by silence or complicity, or by protests more- empty than silence, and more false than complicity, all that force—arbitrary and law less forte—has dared against defenceless right ; it has calmly witnessed and then silently recorded as " accomplished" all the most odious acts of violence and aggression ; it has established nothing, prevented nothing, ameliorated nothing ; it has preserved nothing but confusion, insecurity, and discontent. It was not the diplomacy of the Great Powers that gave to Italy the amount of liberty I and independence she enjoys to-day ;it was the diplomacy of the great Powers that sanctioned the suppression of Hungary and the annihilation of Poland, which the consenting purpose of two of those Powers had effected in the face of the world without consulting any interests but their own. Can any one, who is not the dupe of phrases, mention an instance in the present century of a council of plenipotentiaries of the Great Powers, which has vindicated a just cause, redressed a wrong, taken the side of the weaker party, satisfied the claims of any people, restrained the aggressions of any govern ment, or laid down any lasting basis of peace I How should it be otherwise when the destinies of Europe are decided in a council in which the combined policy of three military monarchies is preponderant, and the single disinterested Power has no policy at al—unless it be • policy to survive • parlia mentary session I Naturally enough, the right of the strongest—the right of might—is the one great saving principle which these sacred guardians of the Balance of Power are once more assembled to affirm. And yet in Parliament, in society, in public places where men of business meet together, there are Englishmen, jealous of the honour and solicitous for the interests of peace and of their country, who contemplate with hopeful compla cency the efforts of another Conference of London to produce another Treaty of London, twelve years after the last, and who take pleasure, day after day, in advising Denmark to sacrifice, without repiningor remonstrance, her national independence and Integrity to the convenience of powerful and sympathetic, but unavailing friends, who are exert ing all their influence to conciliate and satisfy her despoilers. The meeting of the Conference, which, after having been appointed for yesterday, waa postponed to this day, is further postponed until Saturday. Lord Stanley to-morrow will ask the Secretary of State for India, what steps are about to be takes in eon sequence of the late insult to the British minion in Bbcotan ; also whether be has issued, or is about to issue, any fresh ioatructioas to the so•eromeet of India relative to the restoration to the Rajah of Dhay of the government of that state ; and, if so, whether he will lay them upon the table. Mr. Adam intends to-morrow to ask the Secretary of State for India whether, considering the great Importance of oar obtaining a better insight into the feeliop of the natives of India, and better information es to their opinions. he will not recommend each of the govenunesta in India to appoint an officer, whose duty it shall b. to translate and report to government ell metiers of public interest diseased is the native prom : end, whether such an officer bee not been already appointed in Bengal, whose labours have proved most nested.

It does not appear that the demands of the rebels are more exacting than they were, but the Bey at the head of the insurrection, whose real name, now known, is Ali-ben-Riam, is said to have designated a bey-du-camp, the official title of the heir presumptive in the regency of Tunis, and has sent him with an advanced guard of 5,000 bone to a spot near Testour, within 24 hours' march of Tunis. It is announced that the Caid Newlin), grand treasurer, and one of the principal members of the administration presided over by the Shaznadar, is about to start for Europe." RUSSIA AND THE DANISH QUESTION. ST. PETERSBURG, Joan 16. The Deutsche Petersburger Zeitung publishes a semi-official article, pointing out the absurdity of the assertions of the Atsgsburger AUgemeine Zeituwg, viz. that a personal union of the Duchies with Denmark, under the rule of a prince of the Olden burg branch, was aimed at by Russia ; and this, it was stated, would be rendered possible by the abdication of King Christian IX., and by the payment of an indemnity to the Duke of Angont enburg. THE DANISH QUESTION. The Ccoutifutionnel of to-day, in an ai ;dela signed by M. Limayrac, states that in case hostilities be recommenced England will be compelled to participate in the Dano-German conflict by her maritime interests in the Baltic as well as by the fact that a family question is involved, and also by a state of things which the English cabinet has created for itself, and which, already belonging to history, it is useless to dissemble. None of these necessities exist for France, and we may therefore congratulate ourselves, because, if even with the intervention of England the war should remain limited, it would become general should France take part in it The writer continues :—" If Europe has not to fear the scourge of a general war, it is to the far seeing wisdom and moderation of the imperial government that it will be due." DENMARK. PARIS. Jou 16. COPENHAGEN, Jun 15, IL22A.x. Dagbladet of to-day calls upon the government at the resumption of hostilities, should assistance from England and Sweden then be withheld, to seek sup port from the revolutionary elements of Europe in stead of from legally constituted governments, which have forsaken the cause of Denmark. It also urges the raising of a foreign legion, and the acceptance of Garibeides offer. SPAIN. MADRID, Jars 15, Evintnga. The council of ministers was occupied yesterday with the Peruvian question. It is asserted that the Cortes will be closed on Saturday next. The following telegram has been received at Mr. Renter's office from the Peninsular and Oriental Steam Navigation Company.

The mail leaves for London at 11.30 a.m. The Baroda with the Southampton portion of the mail, left Malta at midnight on the 14th instant. EXPRESS FROM PARIS. Num ova ow= PARIS, WZDNISDAT EVIIIIO. Some of the French Papers contain articles written in much the style of Sir Fretful Plagiary's discourses, for the purpose of showing that they are "not the least angry " at the forthcoming meeting of the Emperor of Annie, the Emperor of Austria, and the King of Prussia at Kisseagen. The France has no doubt whatever that M. de Hedberg, at his interview with the Emperor Na poleon yesterday, gave the "most satisfactory ex planations" as to the object of the reunion. The Psys, after apostrophising Kissengen as a "happy city," on account of the honour about to be conferred upon it, calls to mind, never theless, that a similar interview, of which great things were predicted, took plaoe at Warsaw not very long ago, and that nothing came of it. Indeed, it is plain that not even the recon ciliation between Russia and Austria was then effected, because the German papers announce that it is in the glorious city of Kissengen that tb's desired consummation is now about to be accom plished. And yet—continuing the ironical course of its observations—the three powers are to meet again at Carlsbad, no doubt to complete their good understanding. Their accord must certainly be very difficult, since it can only be effected by instalments. The Pays concludes by sneering at those journals which resuscitate the phantom of the Holy Alliance whenever the sovereigns of Russia, Austria, and Prussia travel, and suggests that probably they have no political object at all, but merely seek recreation and change of air, just like their subjects. The Prince Royal of Prussia, accompanied by a secretary of embassy, visited Lille incog., yester day. A captain of artillery was ordered to show him over the fortifications, and he west to a soiree at Marshal Forey's head-quarters in the evening. Some one or more of IL Emile 01'irises friends have brought ont a pamphlet at Dentu's to justify his recent conduct ; the title of it is "La Trahison d'Eraile 011ivier." It is announoed that M. Rinile °Wrier left Paris yesterday for Turin, "to defend important French interests before the council of state of the kingdom of Italy." I do not know what these important in terests are ; but the fact of their being entrusted to M. 011ivier shows that he is in high favour with th e government.

Ev:"`g JUNE T ai r ASIWITER WAR. GOVERNXENT DEMPATOHES. This morning a parliamentary return was issued of mime aseratehee Meting to the Aahaatee war. The doseateale common's with ea =tweet treat a despatch Gorr the Governer of the Gold L the 10th of December, 1862. In this and subsequent do spetehee Governor Pine details the troubles he has had with the King of Anhantes in comma's°s of his (the governor't) refusal to deliver up runaway slaves. The governor ex cremes his deep regret that he finds himself involved, in spite of all hie precautions, in a serious, and, he fears a lingering war. " But," he adds, writing on the 12th of M ay last year "such being the case, I will not conceal from yoar pew the earnest desire that I entertain that a fleal blow shall be struck at Ashantee power, and the question set at red for ever, as to whether an arbitrary, cruel, and sanguinary monarch shall be for ever permitted to insult the British flag, and outrage the laws of civilisation. This desirable object ma be attained only by the possession of such a force as I fear the governor of these settlements osa never hops to command, unites your grace should be pleased to urge upon her Majesty's goveranseet the policy, the eco many, and even the mercy of transporting to these shores an army of such strength as would, combined with the allied votive forces, enable us to march to Geometria, and there plant the British flag. To a stranger the course I point out may appear a visionary one, but lam conviscsd that even with all the diadem ages of climate, the expedition wood not be so dangerous, so fatal, or acoomps.ird with such Ices of life as has attended expeditions in other aid apparently more genial climes ; sod with 2 ( dircip'ised soldiers, followed by upwards of 50,030 native fines, who require only to be led tied inspired with confidence by the presence of organised troops, I would undertake (drir Og the hordes of Ashanteee before me) to march to Coomaasie." On the 22nd of August the Duke of Newcastle writes " I am not insensible of the encouragement which the unfortunate inaction of the troops and native allies under Major Cochrane's command may afford to fresh aggretsions by the Ashautees ; but the proposal of a regular invasion to be made upon that nation, and of a march upon their capital, is too serious to admit of my encouraging it. I will merely say at present that I shall feel very averse to its adoption, except in case of overruling necessity, and also after the report of some more competent military com mander then micros from whom there has yet been an opportunity of obt-ii^"..g an opinion at the Gold Gast." On the 12th of October, the governor expressed his die. appointment. On the 12th of December, he appears to have received a deepeteh notifying that instructions bad been given to ludirtantOommiewary.General Blanc to pro- I teed to the Cape Coast for the purpose of arranging with the governor and the allow commanding the troops an efficient system of transport if circumstances should seem to require such a course. In December last, the King of Aehantee, having for a long time suspended his operations, the go vernor proceeded to march a military party to the Prah in advance, believing that this demonstration would convince the King of the expediency of maims( ociociesions. On the 21st of that mouth, Sir F. Rogers, in the absence and by the authority of the Secretary of State, wrote from Down ing-street to Governor Pine as follows : " With referees. to your despatch, No. 92, of the 12th October, in which you state your views in regard to the expediency of organising a force to attack the A/lantana, even supposing that the latter should not take the ititiative, which you consider the more probable, and suggeetiog that another regiment should be sent to the Gold Coast, I transmit for your information an extract of a letter which, by my desire, has been addressed to the War-office, explaining the grenade on which I have recommended that your application should be com plied with, and I have to request that you will guide yourself by the principles therein stated. In case the expected Arshantse invasion takes place, my I hope is that you and the officer in command will be able to inflict so severe a punishment upon the invaders as will remove the disastrous impressions ceased by their impunity when they lately ravaged the protected territory, and will deter them from any future aggradon. But should no opportunity be found of striking such a blow without enter ing the Ashantie territory, you are not to regard yourself as absolutely prohibited from doing so under any cireum stenos., sad from advancing, as far as the utmost considera tion for the safety of the troops would permit, for the par pose of obtaining reparation and securing the peace of the 'protectorate." On the 11th of March the governor refers to the com mencement of rains, causing "some sickness in camp." Oa the 3rd of April the governor received from Lieut.-Colonel Canso various medical and other reports, just arrived from the camp at Peahens, respecting the state of the health of the troops there stationed, " which," says the colonel, " I must confess appears to be very alarming." He maw quently proposes to recall a large portion of the force to Cope Coast Gude, leaving three companies at the camp to ;garrison that place during the rainy ammo. Another memo for this movement was the con-arrival of the Tamer I transport, which had been seat to the West Indies for re inforeemente About thin time Governor Pine'e health sows to have bosom' impaired, and, ►ctive operations molest the Ache n tees having been guspeoded, he embarked oa board the Rattlesnake for the purpose of taking a cruise. to the 9th of April her Majesty's troopship Tamar arrived at Cape Comet with a reieforeement of upwards*, eC) troops, which had long been expected. On the 73rd of May this year, Mr. Cardwell sends orders in a despatch for the removal of the geese's forme as ra pidly as possible to the healthier quarters on the coast. It should be said that ()overact. Rios bad 'sprigged in April to Col. Conran his doubt with respect to the practicability of keeping up the detachments retneleiag at the camp as a guard during the coming =oaths. Mr. tkrdwall's despatch is es follows : “Doinsing-strest, May 23. _ - - "Sir,—l have received with great concern your dispatch of 7th April, informing me that Governor Pine bad been compelled to leave Cape Coast for the purpose of taking a cruise for the restoration of his health ; I surnently hops that he may return, restored in health and vigour, to the chaise of his offioe, rendered by recent occurrences so full of unusual eaxiety and labour. I much feet, though I have not received from Governor Pies as from you any official information on the subject in detail, that the effect of the rainy mum upon the health of the allows and men has been already very serious. In hi■ letter to me of sth of Apnl, Governor Pine motored a oorrespondeoce be• twain himself and Lieat•Coloael Oman, from which it appeared that Lisat,•Colori Conran bad found it absolutely Deassuary to send away from Push comp and Swadroo all the troops, except three companies, whom to proposed to male to guard the accumulated storm and ammunition ; while Governor Pine doubted the practembility of keepiog up the detachment@ which Lieut,Oolosel Conran proposed should remain as a guard during the coming months, and suggested that he should meet Lieut.• Colonel Coarse in consultation as the subject. This proposal does Dot pear to have taken effect, is cosasquesoe of the necessity which arose for Governor Piee to leave the colony for the restoration of his health. Under these cirenmetanose, I feel it to be my duty to instruct you to take measures, in concert with the officer in command of the troops, for heading over to the native thief; whew istenet and duty it is to defend the frontier of their own territory, the stockades which have been erected .to guard the passe, of the River Prah ; to remove to the coast such portion of the stone as, considering the difficulty of transpor it may be desirable to remove; to give to the friendly chiefs inch stores as it ie impossible or not worth while to remove, or such as may be especially useful to them in their defensive measures and to bring does the whole of the Queen's forces as rapidly es pos. rabbi to the healthier quarters oa the coast, Inetrucition• will be emit by this mail from the Sarrefary of State for War to the officer in command of the forces to the same effect; and liberal powers will be given to that *Seer for the disposal of storm belonging to the department of the Secretary of Mats for War, in order that you may be able to rates any disappointment which may be felt by the chiefs at this neoeseary withdrawal of the Queen's troops. You will, above all things, take "epeeist care, in canoed with the officer in commend, that no stores of any kind are left in such an exposed state au to be likely to fall hate the hands of the Aguish'., sad so afford them a cause of triumph. This remark especially appliea to guns of all kinds, sad ether military atone. It appears that the number of troops upon the coast will now be more then double the number for which the buildings will afford accommodation, and that the removal of a oossiderable number will be some eery for their own health sad comfort, and for the health sad comfort of those who are left behind.

APPEAL& IMINIZION V. TILVIIITON. The Attorney-General renewed his argument for the respondent in this case, and repeated his proposition that the letters of the respondent, which were relied on by the other side as proving that she did not expect marriage from therappellant and was willing to enter into soother kind of coons:Mai with him, in fact and reality were directed solely to the action sod expectation of marriage, and dealt with impediments which had arisen to interfere with that con summation of that to which she believed their mutual wishes tended. Any phrases which were used by her with regard to the throwing aside of conventionalities had reference, not to an assent to an unhallowed association, but to the desire to induce the appellant to join with her in rising above ordinary social conventionalities as they exist in relation to such adventitious matter as fortune and pecuniary means. The Lord Chaacellor inquired how all the dilating ou the voluminous correspondence bore on the propositions in. voiced in the ass, namely, the fact of a Scotch marriage per verbs de premien, cohabitation or ociummion with that marriage in Scotland, and the fact of an Irish marriage. The Attorney-General said that in such an inquiry it was necemeary to trace the antecedents of the marriage which it was sought to establish, and to show that the respondent had uo idea of anything in her relations with the appellant but marriage. The Lord Chancellor could understand that the question was oas of promise of marriage, but how did it bear on the points of law ? Sash an examination of the correspondence might be made interminable. The Attorney-General, preened his line of argument, was allowed to proceed in illustrating his position, and examined • letter of the 6th March, in which the respondent dwelt on the ignorance of the appellant of the strength of hops and length of patience of • woman's heart, and that he consented to throw it away and forget that he ever played with it. She trusted that her experience could not tend to make him reckless or hardened, and if he became • better and a wiser man, she should not regret what it had erased her ; and then he C4llO to the passage which had s beta dwelt on by the other side. as indicating a readiness to enter into other relations Chau those of marriage : " I conclude you will not entertain soy of my plans. I have another which might gratify your wishes and satisfy my coascieooe—but I have not the courage to propose it. Do not keep me in this death struggle—put an end to it at mace." This, it was urged, only meant that although the kind of marriage which had been peoposed in • Greek chapel, at Bslaklava, by the appellant, was still one to which she could not consent ; yet there was • marriage which would satisfy her oocacienoe, to which she would assent; and which might be coin. patible with the objections to a public sad ordinary marines, entortathed for prudential reasons by the appellant. In the next letter of the respondent she said, " I am in • worse position now, but the same remedy will not avail me ; bat I have • small—very small—gleam of hope to which I cling ; only you can take it from me, and that by no gentle mesas. However, I cannot continue the siege much longer salsas you raise it. I must either yield prisoner a diem,- nos or ran away. What am Ito do? Tell me. I think if you will tell me exactly what to do, I could find means and courage to do it." This, it was argued, was to be construed Is the lame gems, namely that marriage only was in her mind, but that she was yielding to the appellant's plan of • private marriage. Subsequent letters show that she was too weak and help less to hold out again:t ri theiropositiou ; and was beginning to acknowledge the of the obstacles which stood between her and that pa and avowed marriage for which she had always been Mingling. As to the prep on which so much stress had bean laid, and such en extraordinary construction had been put by the other side—" Oh, I know , it is wretchedly weak of me. but I cannot help it now, so you must be my friend,' "of which it was suggested that this wan an acceptance of so illicit connexion ; it was simply Imputing to this lady • knowledge of the strong phrases of the most abindoned of her sex, • phrase which might sot be understood in the sense which was put on it, • sense which he (the Attorney- General) was not aware that it could bear until be had heard it from his learned fried. He oontended that the weed was used in its highest and purest sense, aid implied au a to the kindness, god feeling, and pure sympathies o the appellant. The same argument was applied by the learned counsel to other purges, such as them, " We leave oat the morel which constitutes to us the ideal of happiness— can we Dot submit to circumstances, and take things as • half —Qciusd on n'a pas se qu'ea aims, it taut Miner et qu'en • ; which seems to signify whalers can get. We can not do as other peopled°, but are we like other people that we should follow to the letter the same ruler This mast be takes as Indicating her leaning, if not her assent, to that kid of marriage, secret and private, which the appellant was supposed by her to be willing to enter into. A subse quent pommies in the same letter coalirmed this, for she said. we can't get the thing to • state of perfection, but with you I think we might beer with • few wicks and orooks. I almost regret I dal not lane you at (one) of your words at Balaklava. I have always had a feeling that your fate and mine in counesion with you must be oat of the beaten track —it has been so far. As we cannot get it straight would lit sot be widow to enjoy it crookd ?" There was not one weed la all this which was not consistent with the argument that she refined to inch • marriage as circum stances et that time permitted, and with • hope and belief Withal time might ease when, all obsidians removed, their anion might be avowed and assume the character which would reader it the cleasemination of happiness for life. There was oinking whisk had • refeeeees to • natal ocia• anion, bat to marriage for • time debarred from the °edi tor, moist advantages which surround that state. This theory was confirmed by the fact that up to this time there was nothing in the letters of the appellant which posted to an illicit connexion. Much stress was laid by the learned counsel on this phrase of the respondent, " Tell me at cam do veto, ide facto, what you would have me do—that I shall de it Ism morally certain—that it will be right le equally ea' It was obvious that the appellant ID undirstood tha rapeadest's moaning, for in • letter he wrote to her whim he was on the point of leaving the Crimea, end with reference to a promise that they should mat ; and in which he describes the medic* between hie wishes and his reason and judgment on a question which could cal y be that marriage to which the respondent had slaved if not quite consented, and the result was that he decided to go home by • circuitous rod, which rendered it impossible that they would meet at that time. All his conduct led to the ocaclusion that rinceusulTesarriage, hut • secret one, sad that he was yet constantly intimated against even that coons by his know. ledge of the obstacles which existed to any marriage. la this same letter the appellant, however, said that if they did meet he had made up kis mind se to what was to he dam and most occur, that is, • private marriage ; and unless this, and nothing else, was meant, it was impossible that he could, as he did, tell the respondent to lay the circumstances before Mrs. Bellamy. and take her advice. It was out of the question that he should ask • lady to refer the question of an improper connexion to her own sister. [The cue was proceeding when our report left.)

The schoolroom in which the speeches were de livered yesterday was deocested with unusual magnificence, • colossal plume of the Prince of Wales's feathers being placed in front of the gallery facing the platform, and a costly chair, "domed with the initials " A.E." and the City arms, basing been provided for the royal visitor. Long before the commenoement of the day's business all the se►te were occupied by • distitguished assemblage, among whom were the Archbishops of York and Armagh, the Bishops of London, Oxford, Lichfield, Llaedaff, and Down ; Lords Ellenhorougb, Lyttelton, and Truro, and Chief Baron Pollock. The Prince. who had partaken of a magnifioent luncheon io the house of the High Master, Dr. Hyraiton, entered the schoolroom at about half-peat 2, when the programme wee gone through in due order. The verses written in " Commemoration of the Founder" by the High Master, were distributed about the room in Latin sad English, but were recited in English only. The practice of reciting the prize composition is now abandcoed, end spectators are content to witness the reward of merit, without sonertaining its exteet. Thus the elocutionary talent of the young sentiment was only displayed in the series of dramatic scenes, Greek, English, end French, placed under the head " speeches." These were all acted with great spirit, the tragic scenes being, however, lees entitled to commendatiou than the others. Whet the last laugh excited by the pleasantries of la. Jourdain and the Maitre de Philosophic had subsided, the scholars were informed that at the grec oas request of the Prince of Wales their holydays would be elongated to the extent of a week, which was increased to a fortnight by the seven bishops, who each solicited a day. As the gumbo retired, "Three cheers for the Prince" and "Three theses for the bishops" ceased the resemble building to resound. It is understood that the old Pauline dinner will be re vived this year ou the 24 of July. WEATHER REPORT.-(THIS DAY.)
