A SPECIAL EDITION d the " EXP RESS ," iseataining the remits of the day's Raoss, le pub lished evet7 evening during Use Sporting Season, at di o'clock. Lean Camel's° hes replied with dignity and temper to the Ettentozocon Despatch, which ex cited so mach controversy six mouths ago. In a letter to the Secret Committee, through which that Despatch was sent, he points out the injurious effect of that censorious communisation upon his adminis tration, announces his personal attitude towards tie Home Government, and then explains his cele brated Gude Proclamation. It is in those peewee of his Despatch where he declares the position which he takes up th►t Lord CUM INO appears most to advantage. Denounced is the Home M Commons by a Minister, condemned by hi Algid superior ia a published despatch, Lord CANNING suppressed the strong &shop natant to one is Ids polities, sad 'moulted only the interests of the ematry. He would sot be moved by personal reasons te desert his post at a dole of di/Beaky, danger, sad toil; he would explain his course to these who is Ragland are responsible for the govern ment of India, making that, if his policy were deemed erroneous at feeble, he might be recalled without delay. This is the language of public spirit, and is a tacit rebuke to the intense party feeling in which the ants of its author were discussed on Mr. Ciatiwau.'s motion. Nothing could so well dispose the public at ham to mein favourably the explana tion,. Lard Oman° bas to offer as this union of a sensitiveness to responsibility with a readimes to serve the country ander heavy imputations, sad in • situation of personal discredit. The mot important part of Lord Coalinga's Despatch of sours, relates to the explanation and defence of his Proclamation emanating the rights of the people of Dude is the soiL The few para graphs in criticism of the Faitanotoctia De epatch which moods those explanations were hardly required. The tone of that Despatch, as well is its premature publication, were marked and con demned whim Lord ELtaa saint:ail resigned. The broad principles, worthy of bettor commendation, an, we doubt sot, se much those of Lord Coa atria as of the late President of the Board of Control, and sawing as their assertion may be to those w►o regeni laths sad its millions as a lawful prey, they Ask every year deeper into the national ooseeiesse, sad bosom maims of government. The nearer we examins Lord Calmleo's explana tion of hie Osti• policy the mere we regret that it was not tendered to the Rome devernment of India, together with the ProcLaimatisa, at a time when it might have served • more mete purpose than that of a mere penonal rindication. Bat we are bound to say that we now find little in it that would have modified the judgment on the Proclamation which we expressed last April. The defenders of that celebrated paper told vas day by day that we misunderstood Lord Csicalso's meaning, and absurdly mierepressated the extant and sigailleasee of his sots. We were assured that the confiscation notified to the inhabi tants of Oode by the Governor-General of INDIA was not, as we understood it, the transference of private property to the ruler by way of penalty for an offence; that the cancelled rights of the Talookdans and landowners were metaphyeioal and figusentary, while the occupier and the husbandman were, by aro@ of the Proclamation, placed in a position of increased ease. Now, however, Lord CAN:rtet; has become his own interpreter, and ills sion is henceforth impossible. In the 29th paragraph of hie Despatch, the Govrairoa-Gautaxt. elabo rately explain, the grounds on which he concluded that "to restore the peasant occupiers of the " soil," whose lot im described in paragraph 25 as one of " unparalleled depression," " would have been "to court failure." With equal decision he declares his opinion that to acknowledge the rights of the Talookdani would have been to lower the character of the Government and destroy its influence. In para graph 30 be is still more emphatic, and says : Regard bisti had to the Wive, of mamas in Oede ; te the hewn of the abets made by the goverameat l 1346 to met up there who were believed to be the hereditary proper tore of the sell ; to their unworthy record= of the bemlits heelleseed spas era ; to the rebellious spirit .adhered by nerdy •R the Taloceders of the preview, sad so the bees obeli* dilloaltim which would have attended the mijsdiea lise d slams to proprietary right is the nrcuatmeness that have Ism betsy deetribed, sad width would have hampered at every tars ; the sareeto be eskret,themost path, sad a thertieghly Mei mune, seemed to be to declare the gespristery right In the soil (to whomsoever appertain te6 I. el shame es such had liaised equally) male meek aid le morn to the gymnasia the right of dipper lag et hes might mem little/. et the same time astifying of the Ooveremeat to show imialgeme to those whe shwohl leader hemediete submission sad throw them edme spe• le merry.

Probably such a isatenes as this was never penned before dime civil polity because a study, hot its spirit is expressed so fully Ia the °tide Proclamation, that it ecartielv &Recto our previous knowledge of that document.

It woe natural that, when so situated, they Amid rise up in resistance en the firm opportunity, and they did so. The offence of the peuant occupiers was ranker in Lord CANNING'S eyes. The Govern ment, in 1866, =Anne to raise them up from social depression, had eapeueed their cause against the Tslookdar ; but the interference, like that between husband and wife, was resented by both parties. The Ck)vaamos-Gaunnea. writes : The village occupants se a body relapsed into their former subjeotka to the Talookdar, owned sad obeyed his authority r if be hod ►oes thee lawful marten end joined rho mks id time who rose tip ia arm egoism the Britian governor*.

Lard CANNINII judger the conduct of Talookdar and peasant by an Old Bailey standard, and con cludes that "all have sinned;" but hie lordship has not been in India long enough to forget that the nation of an entire nation sinning against its riders is one which we in Eng land End it exceedingly difficult to realise. When all cleans unite against a Government we are led almost inevitably to suppose that the Govern ment must have misunderstood the character and wants of the people. It was because Lord CiNNEKO'S Proclamation was obviously founded on the opposite principle, kegs , * it treated a nation as criminal, that it excited astonishment and evoked remon strance in this country. We must entirely change our national character before we can thus judge of whole peoples. Lord CANNING is very careful to explain that hie ' intentioss last March were most merciful. This is what we should have expected from the GOVERNOR. GENERAL, who stood calm and unmoved lest year when day by day his moderation and justice to the natives was denounced as cowardice and " Bandy ism." But then why, with the disposition of HINE! QUATRE, use the language of WILLIAM the Norman P To say the least of it, the coarse taken by Lord CAN NING was recondite and circuitous. He confiscates because he apprehends no difficulty in explaining to those most concerned that the measure does not in volve a permanent deprivation of their rights. In the fourth paragraph of his letter to the Board of Directs= he says it is " undoubtedly true " that " the words " of the Proclamation without the comment on it " which you trust was speedily afforded by the " actions of the Government, must have pro ., duped the expectation of a much more " general and indiscriminate disposeession than " would have been consistent with judos or with " policy." Yet the words of the Proelarnatim must of necessity have been received in districts where the commentary oould not penetrate. The Proclamation was issued against the remonstrance of Sir JAMES OrrnAtt, Chief Commissioner of Onde, at a time when, although we had just struck a heavy blow at Lucknow, we exercised no authority except on the ground occupied by oar columns; it was certain that ear influence would be just in proportion to our military suocees, and this order, which we had not the power to enforce, seamed the appearance of that which its author repudiates—a threat. Lord CAN NING does not show that his Proclamation contri buted in the least to the pacification of ()ude. So far as that work has at all advanced, it is clearly traceable to the special transactions of Mr. MOWN &MEET with individuals; transactions which, it is confessed, most rest on justice and policy, notwith standing the denunciations of April last.

PRUSSIA The Journal des Debate of this day has another article upon Prussian affairs, oommunicating infor mation received from oorresponden ts at Berlin, who date their letters from the 3rd. According to these authorities, the King, within the last few days, has been persuaded by persons around him to withhold his assent to the system of • regency. Always irresolute, he has bean induced to believe he is improv ing in health, that a longer term of repose is all thatis required, and that if the Prince of Prussia refuses to accept the system ofa delegation of the royal authority fora flied term, his Majesty can confer the same upon one more submissive and devoted. The Ministry, it is stated, are unanimously in favour of a regency. and should the King continue to withhotd his awn; the dignity will, in all probability, be con ferred upon his brother, by, as the constitution provides, the Legislative Chambers. EXPRESS FROM PARIS. ',sox ova owx PARIS, WIDNISDAT EMITIIII. The people of Paris, who, doubtless, for wise pur poses, are seldom permitted to know what most concerns them until long after it has become noto rious in every other capital in Europe, are only to day alive to the fact that two French men-of-war have been sent from Toulon to make a hostile de monstration in the Tagus. To-day, for the first time, the event has been talked of at the Bourse, where it naturally occasioned some uneasiness. The general opinion, however, is that the demonstration is merely a tribute to national vanity, and means nothing. The public mind is so utterly averse to war that people refuse to believe that the vessels would have been despatched if it had not been well ascertained beforehand that their guns would not in any contingency be called into requisition, Sane say the terms upon which the question will be settled must be already known ; others, that Por tugal must, of necessity, yield when the French flag appears before Lisbon, and there are optimists who feel certain that the English government must have privately given its sweat to the step taken by France. I cannot for • moment believe in the latter assertion. On the contrary I have every reason to think that Portugal is countenanced by the English govern- I went, and if so the ill-advised demonstration must add greatly to the difficulty of coming to a satisfac tory settlement. It is now said that the ground upon which the Portuguese government seized the Charles Georges is not that she was engaged in the slave trade, as has been commonly sup posed, but that the negroes found on board of her, and with whom the French government had entered into what it is pleased to term • free con contract, had been unlawfully taken from the terri tory of Mozambique. The Pays is very indignant at the obstinacy of the English press in calumniously characterising " free immigration as the slave trade, and declares that the Emperor is firmly resolved to proceed with the project "in spite of everybody." The Bourse, owing, as it is supposed, to the Por tuguese affair, was decidedly heavy all day., The Rents fell 30c. for cash and 25c. for account, closing at 73fr. 70c. and 73fr. &So. Mobilier fell 27fr. 60e. In railways bat little business was done ; Orleans fell 10fr.; Northern, sfr.; Western and Southern, 3fr. 75c. each, and Lyons, 2fr. 60c. Eastern remained without change. The St. Germain railway trial has resulted in the condemnation of four out of the five accused parties for culpable negligence of the rules. Ron ' Jean, the station-master of Vesinet, is sentenced to six months' impronment, and 300 fr. fine; Duhan toles, the telegraph clerk, to five months sad 300 fr. fine ; Quenelle, the breaksman, to three months; and Berger, the other breaksman, to two. Arnault, the pointsman, was acquitted. The company, which did not seek to avoid the obligation, was declared civilly re sponsible for the accident. ' A state railway carriage, made for the Pope, is now on view at Messrs. Christofle's, in the Rue de Bondy. It is to be sent to Civita Vesohia, at the end of the month, and will be sled by his Mantas on the occasion of the inauguration of the line from Civita Vecchia to Rome, which will take place, it is said, on December 10, the anniversary of the proclamation of the Immaculate Conception. The comet had a very remarkable appearance last night. Arcturus, the most brilliant star in the con stellation of Capricorn, was distinctly visible through the centre of the thickest part of the tail, at the dis tance, to the naked eye, of about three inches s from the nucleus. The effect wu magnificent. Arcturus shone so brightly through the " airy nothing " of which the tail would seem to be composed, that the glowing, gee-looking light of the nucleus seemed dim by comparison. The two together showed like diamonds of nominal brightness on • lady's wrist, while the nebulous matter of the train might be sup posed to be an expansive gauze sleeve. Handreds of people flocked to the Place de la Concorde to see the beautiful phenomenon through the large te lescope which is to be found there nightly. Half a franc was charged for a peep, and so great was the pressure to see, that less than half a tr;nute was allowed to each person for the money. Nothing could be more disappointing than the view from this telescope, the star, looking as all fixed stars do through a magnifying lens, nothing but a pale yellow spot; the nucleus duller than it does to the naked eye; sad the small section of the tail which the the telescope embraced being so shadowy as scarcely is he lietiesnisbed from the surrounding atmosphere.

The Progremista aimimittee has issued its address to the 000stituesciia, in prospect of the elections. In this paper, from the pen of M. Salastiano Olozaga, it is declared : The principles of our party, which have neither verki, nor oan vary, are those which were proclaimed at Cadiz by the Legislators of 1812, which were inscribed In the Consti tutioe of 1837, and which prevailed in the Constituent Codes of 1864. The differences in those conalltations are exclu sively owing to the difinence of time and to the necensitiee of the moment; but they all are of the same origin, that o: nations' sovtreignty, and have the seine object, giving to the Spanish people all possible liberty with the °orientational Mzeterehy. As the Constitution of 1846 dues not recognise that origin, is neither fulfils this object, and it hen not been end It can never be the standard of our party- Om deputies have sworn to it in the Corn" end they will swear to it u long as political oaths are in ono though condemned for its iturtlity by all parties. We will reapers It es long as it is in vigour, but the Pragmatists party nee never renounced Its intention to enforce by ell legal means the principles of its political dogma. This Is a right of which it cannot be deprived, because it is a constitutional party, end it is a duty which it will know how to fulfil when ever circumstances permit it, and the good of the state re quires it. Bat sack is the force of character of our party, such the madames in the excellence of its principles, such the love for the exercise of its political rights, that however, restricted these may be, it yet tries to carry them oat within the limits permitted to it. It is that that we have seen it, In ail the provhmes, making the electoral lists tree and real in spite of the distrust cc- motioned by the presence of public functionaries who bad &delimited them; sad though the result of the pea coats could not, for that roman, be snob as is indispeneable he a true representative system, yet even such is they are we are prepared for the approaching electoral contest. The intelligent and popular classes, In whom we Ind our prin cipal support, are greatly deprived of electoral righte, and the number of electors Is reduced by the imptelleetion of the alaxtoral lists, the Progreedasa will therefor* have to contend at great disadvantage in them diatticts in which their triumph would be sure under better conditions, and where now their defeat may be probable. But devotedness Is indispensable, and none can be a good liberal who Is not resolved to make all not Mess which the good of the country and the discipline of the Prigniosista perry requires For them memos the commitme implores you to vote is comae for the candidates w►o are most worthy of your confidence, to take care that the proceedinp be legal, to denounce every &bum which you may observe, and to make the necessity appeal to the pvernment and the tribu nate—such is the duty of the committee, cad we are deter_ m'ned to execute it. It is in this sense it understands it s mission, end it does not interfere in the designation of condi_ dates. who ought to be left, in accordance with our principles, to the spontaneous choice of the electors. The only thing the committee think it right to specify is, that yen ought not to vote for any candidate who will not accept our principles, and who is not disposed to support them in the new Cortes, Ton ought to elect thorn only who are inspired by the purest patriotism—those only who will judge the minister by his acts, and support him in all he may do in &ocar inas with our museums. Should the government propose laws which approach our principles the duty of the Progressista Deputies will be to defend their own pi inelples in all their polity, and if success cennot be obtained they must leave for better days the complete triumph of their wishes, and emit those at first to what is possible. What is now done in England—Bogland, the cleuic land of liberty and the model for all free gore...notate —by members of parliament of the most radical opinions, although our condition is vety different, should clearly be imitated by no. Yes, we should lay to imitate that great people in the prudence with which it seta about the reform of its political and model organleation, in the perseverance with which it acts until it succeeds, and, more than ell, in the tenacity with which it helda to its reforms. It is ties that in that country no one th'nka of retrograding. It is true that there no one is ao devoid of good mesas as to attempt to destroy the boaquests made by liberty. Among al every thing is ipossible, end we should be prepared far all. Where fore to it that we must pteesrvs the integrity of our party, ever disposed to tusks all the sacrifices which liberty, the well-being, and the progress of our country may require. The Peninsular oorresposslenes contain the fol lowing: The Supreme Court of Justice is much °coupled just now with appeal caste concerning the rectification of the election lista, which cams are not fewer than 17,000 in number, and though a great many of them are to exactly alike that they may beacon despatched after a Snit judgment an gene at a precedent, yet it would have been impossible to get through them ell by the 10th of this month, the day dud for the eternal, bad not the Supreme Court appointed a madam camber of supplementary taibuniJe, sad wiled on the deputy Bemis sad crown barristers to help to forward the business. Many of the objections to votes are founded on legal =bus tles, and itt them came the ageister's orders will be carried out—that is to say, the spirit of the law will be attended to rather than lie letter.

It was a work of great impor tance, and one whisk deserved and would receive the grati tude of the public. The neoessity for the general extension of knowledge among the people manor, generally admitted ; the only question was as to the means. Every reflecting mind would acknowledge that it could not be the will of God that am should be allowed to live in looms.* of thin* past and to come, things human and divine, great and mask on the earth or in the heavens, or that the noble gifts given to man ehoold be left uncultivated, any more than it could be the will of the Almighty that the soil of the earth should remain barren sad untitled. (Hear, hear.) It was our duty as citizens, es philanthropista, and as politicians, te promote education and the general diffusion of knowledge, and no run would now in this free country discourage the objects which these institutions bad in view. (Hear.) He himself had no fear of the result of extending knowledge, and without pretending just now to expound any whams of political re form, be would say that one dour drat duties was to see that those who had to exercise civil rights were made by education fit and competent to ellmehrge them. (Hear, hear.) It had been said that "a little knowledge is a dangerous thing." He was not afraid of knowledge, but he was afraid of igno with its Iseadetrong passions and prejudices, and it was the r duty as good citizens to extend as far es they could the spread of imowledge, sad to pat an and to ignorance. hie John, in emolnalon, mein recommended the promoters of the W Unkee:of Mechanics' Institutes to persevere in their lendable Mr. SLAW'S .P., oleo Inpreilled his approval of the object, and observed that the great difficulty in the way of national edneation was the want of unanimity as to the but seam of eserying it out.
