SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. ♦ SPECIAL EDITION et the "EXPRESS,' matalatng the results of tt►e day's Reese, is pub limbed every main daring the Sporting Seams, at oh 'Meek. Wnsravxa may be thought of Lord Dust in other respects, friend and foe must alike admit his pre-eminent powers as a speech-maker. Nobody can select topics with a nicer tact, or oommenton them with happier illustrations. No one commands in equal msesure a flow of language which is at once dignified and unaffected, simple yet forcible, flexible yet awaked. Everything is touched, but nothing overdone ; there is neither omission, nor redundancy ; the right things are said and the beet words used. It is a rare and happy gift. When the tlEng is done, it seems easy to do; but let anyone try it, and he will soon learn this difference between the power of appreciation and the power of performance. Lord DERBY, perhaps, never exerted this enviable accomplishment to better effect than in his address at the Mansion-house dinner. The right kay wu struck at once by the felicitous comparison between the circumstances in which the country is placed now and those in which it was placed in November 1867. We were then in the mid-gloom of the great commercial crisis, and in the very strews of the desperate struggle in India. Within three days at Sir ROBS= CARDEN'S inauguration a ge neral crash in the money market was averted, at the last moment, by the suspension of the Bank Charter Act; and the country was trembling with feverish anxiety to learn further particulars of those desperate deeds of hardihood by which HATALOCK had relieved the garrison, with out being able to raise the siege, of Lncknow. On Tuesday last it wee Lord Dsaar's grateful task to present a more agreeable picture. Organised rebel lien has been put down in India: the intelligence we are now waiting to receive is that which will announce the commencement of the final cam- paig' n destined to restore tranquillity to our great dependency, and found our supremacy on a surer basis. Trade and commercial enterprise are re viving, though they have not yet fully recovered from the panic of last veer; our harvest has bets abundant; our revenue is elastic; our labouring popu lation is well employed and well paid. On this last point, one of the facts communi cated by Lord Druer will excite • very general feeling of satisfaction. The amount of pauperism, which had rapidly increased between the r , eptember of 18.57 and last March, bas, wince the letter period. been in • course of steady diminution, sad the numbers of those receiving poor-law relief (to the last week of last September wee ecosiderably lower than for the corresponding period in the pre vious year. _ . _ Paring from the internal condition of the oonntry to oar relations with Europe and the remota Beat. the Pima Hinman found no reason to abate the congratulatory tone of his remarks. With regard to China, Lord Dauer is wanly con tent to take things as he finds them. His opinions on this point are exorcised with a diateemanlike moderation which will probably omit mead itself to many who, widely dissenting from him as mod questions of national policy, agree with ►im hare. "Of the ownesseonnent of those hostili * dee I shall say nothing, but I now rejoice to say that further bloodshed is at an end, and that Wen " ties bars been entered into which will be impels " taut, not only to this country, ►at to the pima " interests of comaneroe and civilisation." la this mode of dealing with the China question in its present phase, we are strongly disposed to concur. Our opinion as to the 111011anienotusout of those hostilities Is, indeed, unchanged, but the time for protest has gone by. The silence which soaks to avoid the renewal of usher altercation implies no assent, far lass any praise. But let bygones be bygones: sots regattas; di lor. In the Gestation of bloodshed, if it have indeed ceased, every htuaane Englishman mud rejoice, and we are quits willing to be con vinced by the course of events, that the interests of commerce and civilisation have been promoted by the treaty of Tien-Bin. The advantages of the commercial intercourse about to be opened with Japan, if regulated by the Ides and humane cooed aerations to which Lord Deur 'Averts, will probably justify the anticipations in which he indulges; sad there can be but one opinion among all dams of politicians as to the conspicuous ability with which Lord Etram has carried oat the objects of his arduous and important mission. The assurance gives by Lord DZILDT, " that there never has been a moment in which our re " lawn' with France have been oa a more friendly 0 footing than at present, or when on both sides of " the Channel there was • stronger desire to " maintain the alliance which has so long and " happily subristed"-- this assurance, which on ea occasion of so much importance would not, it may be presumed, be hazarded without foundation, is calculated to produce the best effect. Even more important than this statement of feet is the assertion of the principle by which Lord Dram declares that his foreign policy will be guided. The doctrine, sound in itself, is additionally valuable as being • manifest protest against the policy which, as practised by Lord Disanr's predecessor, we hays in-1 kit it our duty to condemn. , "I baliemk ► says Lead DERBY, " that the policy best ealculatad "to preserve the peace of the world is, in. " first place, a firm and temperate maintaame " of our own rights, a careful deference to the riglai' " of other nations, and all possible abstinence from " interference in their internal affairs. I would add, a determination not to give or take offence, and, if " offence should unhappily arise, then to have re " mane in the first instance to that principle which to its eternal honour, wss settled in the Paris Con .' ference, viz., that of referring the matter to the " friendly offices of some neutral country." These are principles to which every enlightened English man will give his fullest salient; it is quite certain that no Minister who is not prepared to act upon them ought ever again to be entrusted with the con duct of our Foreign Department. On the subject of the forthcoming Reform, Lord DERBY was, u might have been expected, dexte rously evasive. The excellent Alderman who wee occupying for the first time the civic throne, had so far forgotten the host in the politician, as to remind the Ministry he was entertaining that they had hi therto lived principally upon the measures of their predecessors, bat that now at last they had a clear ammo open for the introduction of bold and original mamma of economy, retrenchment, and reform. Lard DERBT was not to be Wired in this way, and few things could be more adroit than the mode in which the accomplished orator warded off the unexpected onset. Lord DERBY was quite right. Important reforms a the kind which he tells us he is contemplating—" the details of " those measures of legal, social, financial, and " political Liprovement," which he hopes " at the of the Session to submit to the " impartial judgment of Parliament and the people" —these it would obviously be out of the question to communicate at the Guildhall banquet. The point to be noted here is that Lord Diana and his Cabinet are, by his own statement, busily engaged in preparing and maturing important measures of Reform. To this extent then Ire On wiser than we were. A Reform Bill, and that deal extensive kind, is actually undergoing the prows GI Cabinet Incubation. It is to be something, LEI Dian tells us, which is to leave an impress 011111/2 institutions—those institutions which he elegantly and truly describes as " the aggregate of suceessive "improvements heaped up by successive generals Lions." The measure which is to leave an imprees on institutions like theme, can be no mere piece of occasional legislation. This conclusion we are fairly entitled to draw bola Lord DIRBY'S words. To this extent, with all his dexterity, he fairly stands committed. He is pledged, in the facia the country, to introduce a broad measure, Mimed, es he expresses it, " not to please this or that dos, but " the community at large." Will he redeem the pledge, and how ? that is the question. It is a question deeply interesting to the.. concerned in the probable stability of the DERBY Administration, less so to those who, like ourselves, care not so much from whom Reform in Parliament comes, u that, come from whom it may, it should be speedy, and broad, and thorough. That Lord DIARY should succeed in inducing the Cabinet over which he presides to sanction such a measure as the people can accept, certainly takes rank among the d priori improbabilities of politica. Bet we have lived is an age when to say what cannot or will not be done in Politics is not less rash than to prophesy what cannot or will not be done in Science, When we remember how and by whom Catholic Emancipation was carried, how and by whom Free Trade in corn was carried, we cannot affirm it to be impoesible that a useful measure of Parliamentary Reform should be brought forward by Lord DUBE. It is a point, however, on which at pre sent it is idle to speculate. There are scenes on which a humane mind is reluctant unnecesearily to dwell. It is not pleasant to have to assist in fancy at a Cabinet interior in which Lord CRILMBFORD and Mr. HENLEY are being stretched on the rack of an ever broadening franchise, or agonizing under the thumbscrew of electoral distribution. Nothing but • morbid taste can delight in pursuing the details of the DERBY Reform Bill through these preparatory stages of acute suffering and unpitied ignominy. Whether the principal sufferers will stand the pressure, or whether human nature and the Dilly Cabinet will give way together, is more than we can attempt to predicate. One thing is clear: if Lord DERBY gives the people such a Refute Bill ati they want, they will take it from him as readily as from any one else ; if he fails in doing this, he will have to give way for sea minister who both can and will carry out what the nation is resolutely determined by some means or other to have accomplished. COMMUNICATION BETWEEN DOVER AND CALAIS RESTORED. THE EXPRESS, THURSDAY EVENING, NOVEMBER 11, 1858. L&TEST INTELLIGENCE. RUSSIA AND THE PRINCIPALITY OF MONACO. We read the following strange story in the Prue : " A vague and passing strange rumour is eironl lating in Italy, and especially in Nice, Villafranes, and Monaco, to the effect that the Emperor of Ramjet in order to make his maritime position at Villa franca more effectual, desires to purchase the prin cipality of Monaco, which is almost close to it. There is no doubt, it is said, that a very large sum of money would tempt the Prince of Monaco to sell his principality, with all the rights and pri vileges appertaining to it. Monaco has been sold for money more than once, and why should it not be again P The Prince, who is in taste and habit* quite a Parisian, would find many advantages in getting rid of his little kingdom, and it would be an immense acquisition for Ramis. She might create important establishments between Capes Aglio and Martino, and particularly at Monaco, itself, the port of which is one of the safest in the Mediterranean, and would be almost impregnable if properly fortified. This acquisition, however, I would seriously affect the political division of Italy, and would therefore necessitate international diplomatic intervention. Pied mont, notwithstanding her present friendly relations with the Czar, would assuredly not consent to allow Russia to take possession of a territory, which is bounded on all sides by her states, and the European powers would never sanction such a transaction. Russia meet see all the difficulties we would rather say the impossibilities, in the way of such a project, and we can therefore only regard the rumour as unfounded." DENMARK. (IT 11.1071/C A D INTIMNATIONAL TIVIBORAPE.) C 71.011 OUR OWX HAKBURG, WRDNISDAY. We learn from Copenhagen, on reliable authority, that the Chamberlain Von Levitt= has been ap pointed Minister for the Duchy of Holstein, and that Duke Charles of Olucksberg has been reinstated in the office of general of the Danish army. TURLEY. MARIIBILLBS, WEDNESDAY. The Alexandria brings news from Beyront, dated October 27. Agitation wu general in Turkey in Asia, and there had been risings in many places. Omer Puha held hie position with difficulty at Bagdad. The tribes around Tripoli, Alexandretta, and Aleppo had revolted, and communication was interrupted. The garrison of Beyront had been sent against the insurgents. In Lebanon the troubles had been appeased by the bishop, Joseph Jahjah. EXPRESS FROM PARIS. gawk ors PARIS. WIDNISDLY EYINIWO. It has been almost taken for granted, in some quarters, that in oonseqaence of the 'satisfaction given to Spain by the Emperor of Moroooo, the Cabinet of Madrid had renounced its projected expedition against the Riff pirates. A telegram has, however, reached Paris, stating that the Spanish fleet, consisting of eight steamers, actually sailed from Cadiz this morning for Tangiers. Spain has several grievances against Moroooo, and the reparation lately obtained extends only to one. The fleet has orders, after presenting the demands of the Spanish government, to scour the coast of Africa, and destroy all vessels manned by the Riff Moors, which may be found without regular papers, and treat them as pirates. In the department of the Meuse the prefect, fol lowing the example lately set in the Aisne, has not formally chosen a government candidate for the vacant seat in the legislature, but has caused the electors to be informed, thr ough the Echo di I' Bet, that they are free to vote either for M. Clement, mayor of Verdun, or M. Bennis, mayor of Waly, both of whom are equally devoted to the government. It is stated that apropos of the French flag hoisted by the Duke of Malakoff on his residence at Knightsbridge, and which, after a diplomatic cor respondence on the subject, he has been ordered to take down, Count Walewski has written • circular to French agents in foreign countries laying down rules for their guidance as to the circumstances ander which it is proper to display the national colours. Lord Cowley left Compiegne a few days ago for his country seat at Chantilly, where he will con tinue to reside till the repairs at the embassy in the Faubourg St. Honore are completed: the expenses of these repairs, by the way, aie stated to be esti mated at 20,000 L sterling. In order to facilitate into:mares between Wey mouth and Cherbourg, the Minister of the Interior has =Wailed to the latter port that relaxation of the rules regarding passports which already exists at Boulogne and Calais. The Bourse has been animated to-day, and was may Arm at the close. The Rent* rose 10fr. for Gash and 26fr. for account, Naving off at 73fr. 110 c. and 71Ift. 90c. Mobilier roes 17fr. 600.

The Yolks-Zeitung was seized on Saturday at Berlin for an article headed " Fall of the Man teuffel Ministry," in which the acts of that Ministry were criticised. " According to all probability," says a letter from Berlin, "a very warm electoral contest may be ex pected. The nomination of M. de Patow, as Minis ter of Finance, is a direct declaration of war against the exemption of the properties of the nobles from taxation. In 1848 a pamphlet of M. de Patow on the question of the land-tax led to the formation of the self-styled Parliament of the Nobles, the chief of which was Count d'Arnim-Boitzembonrg. Now the minister is in a position to carry out his ideas, which. are approved of by the Prince Regent, but the party of the nobles will not yield to him without a struggle." (111011 0111 OWN BERLIN, Nov. 8. The Stoats-Anzeiger hu already give* you the names of the new ministers, whicli on the whole confirm my former conintaniosileas. There is now a talk of making a new department, to be called the Staatz-Ministerium, or Treasury, eseasthing similar to that created by the late King Frederick William HL, when the office was held by Count Lottura. It is farther added that the Minister von Auerewald will be placed at the head of this new department. Meetings of voters for the fifty-four districts of this metropolis are convened simultaneously for this evening. The police will have enough to do to send a sufficient number of officials to each of these meet ings, bat the circumstance excites no alarm, and, indeed, the total absence of police officers would only be beneficial to the cause of the Liberal government just installed in office, eontzaating so deeply, as it would, with the rigid measures of precaution always taken by the former cabinet. The elevation of the late premier, Baron von Man teuffel, to the dignity of Count, was offered by the Regent to that nobleman, who, however, has declined to accept it; but a list o: officials connected with the foreign department whom he has brought before the attics of the Regent for promotion, and recom mended as candidates tor orders of knighthood, on amount of their long and meritorious •servioes, has been approved and acted on immediately by the &rrat. Herr von Gruner,Councillor of Legation, has been appointed Under Secretary of State for the Ministry si !Foreign Affairs. With regard to the antecedents of the newly appointed ministers, I may observe that Prince Hohenzollern, as a distant relative of the reigning dynasty, received the title of Highness by royal deerse of 20th of March, 1850, on his voluntary me diatisation and surrendering the territorial sove reignty of his principality of Sigmarinuen to the crown of Prussia by the treaty of the 7th December, 1849. The prince is lieutenant-general in the Prussian service, colonel of the 28th Regiment of Infantry (of which the late Duke of Wellington was honorary oolosal from the peso° of 1815 down to the time of his decease), and commander of the 14th division of the army (headquarters at Dusseldorf). Rudolph von Anerswald was civil governor of the province of Trier (Treves) from 1842 till the revolu tion in March, 1848, when he was appointed Prime Minister at the head of the Cabinet which succeeded the short-lived ministry of Cemphausen. He how ever resigned shortly afterwards, and became civil governor of East Prussia, from whence he was sub sequently transferred in a similar capacity to the Rhenish provinces. Since hie dismissal from office, on the accession of the cabinet formed by Herr von Westphalen, he has only taken a part in politics as member of the House of Representatives. Baron Alexander von Schleinitz was Prussian Envoy to the court of Hanover when called to a seat in the Cabinet on the 29th of July, 1849, as Minister for Foreign Affairs, from which post he retired on the accession to office of Herr von Radowita, who un dertook himself the conduct of the affairs of that de partment, ever sines which he has lived in privacy . . The Minister of War, Baron Edward von Bon in, has filled this post for a short time once before dur ing the late Russian war, but tendered his resigna tion in consequence of a dispute he bad with a com mission appointed by the members of the Lower House. He was lent to Schleswig-Holstein during that war, and commanded their army against the superior numbers of the Danes with great credit and MOM. Baron Erasmus Robert von Patow, a Civilian, and Councillor of Le ga tion, now Minister of Finances, was Minister for Trade in the Camphausen Cabinet of 1848, but retired when that pnme minister re signed. He subsequently served as civil governor of the province of Brandenburg, and ever since 1849 was an active and intelligent member of the Lower House. Moritz Augustus TM Bethmann-Hollweg was formerly Rector of the University of Bonn, and was appointed in 1848 to be a member of the Council of State, but of late he has taken no active part in public affairs. Count von Puckler (a relative of Prince Fackler- Alaskan, the well-known author of " Semilasso," &c.) has for many years past, and up to his appoint ment as Minister for Agriculture and Agrarian Affairs, been the civil governor of the province of Oppeln. Of the two ministers who retain thole metfolice, August von der Heydt, after being for some time head of a large manufacturing concern at Elberfeld and President of the Tribunal of Commerce in that city, catered the Cabinet u Minister for Commerce on the Bth of December, 1818; and Ludwig Simons was salted in April, 1849, to scooted the Minister of Jude., Kerr von Rintelen, who resigned. The Prussian frigate Thetis, 42 (exchanged from the British navy a few years sines for the two de spatch boats Recruit and Weser), has received orders to proceed immediately from Dentate to the Swedish Naval Arsenal at O'Herron., where she will be docked, lengthened, and transformed into a powerful screw-steamer. This is one of the first-fruits of the new order of things. As a significant sign of the times, it may be men tioned that a highly respectable merchant of Danteic, Herr W--d, being appointed some time ago agent of the Berlin Life Assurance Company, petitioned the local authorities for the usual " concession," which was, however, refused, on the grouad of his having voted at the last election against the govern ment emedidate. A few days since that gentleman sent in a petition to the Minister complaining of the conduct of the local police in not permitting him to accept the agency for political reasons, and received an answer by return of post informing him that there were now no difficulties whatever in his way.

During the last few years the National Lifeboat; Institution has bad many opportunities for observing the metaled that existed for the adoption of a uniform spi na If manaeggeemment of the mortar and rocket apparent, and for the diseributton of instructions concerning the setae on board all merchant vessels, so that their crews might never bg tof the proper steps to , be taken to seems their gee after communications by lice had been effected by the labor and rocket apparatus with the shore. The limitation thl3o t 0 has likewise from time to time received 0012m911611110iircei persons residing oats coasts p•lnthg oat the existed for some each provision, and has had beoiglitimm ei its notice lamentable Instances of the want of knowledg e e d the apparatus by merchant seamen leading to fatal respite—. In one Instance, the extreme case of live men passi ng u s rocket line around them, and then all leaping overboard, to be drawn on shore through the waves eve loam on 'beck ocosidon only one of that number reached the land alive,ln a second instance), eleven men perished, after g communication by tine had been effected with wreck through one of the crew making the line fleg rowed his mid, sad jumping overboard tent it, when no second oonentunication could be effected, In • third instance a rocket line having been thrown over II schooner wrecked in /3ellyootton Bay, Ireland, a lad was at ow* tamed to the end of the line, and a frail lognine wee e b o r e a teW ix t: veer him to the shore. The o log Una, come, he was 20 yards from the veW whin he erea drawn ashore in a half-drowned condition by the rocket l •, but the communication was thus cut off from the wreck, cad niTeexod line could be thrown over it.

And routrinst as ance is that'of the sloop Queen,of Oriumby,wreekid off Yarmouth on the 19th ult. It is the opinion of eons. tent parsons that the people on board the sloop might hue been saved in about ialf-an-hour after she struck, had the mate understood how to fasten the line to the meet-had. Instead of doing so, a man had, at the peril of his life, to go off from the shore to fasten the rope to the vessel's mast. With a view of preventing such eatutmphes in future, we append the festruotions issued by the Board of Trade on this Important 'abject : DULICTIONB TO BIABTEIta AND CRENTB OP Boise. " In the event of your vessel stranding on the coast of de United Kingdom, and the lives of the mew being Filmed k =, assistance will, if possible, be rendered from the ahem following manner namely : " A rocket or shot, with • thin line attached, will be Bth morose your Weal Get hold of this line as soon as you ma; and when you have second it, let one of the mew be amps: rated from the rest, and, if in the daytime, wave his hat se his hand, ere Bag or handkerchief ; or if at sight, let a r a blue-light, or a gun be fired or let a light be die. played over over the side of the ship, and again concealed, s a signalto shoes on shore. When you see one of the men on shore separated from the rest, wave a red flag, or (if at night) show • red light and then conceal it, you are to haul upon the rocket Ilse until yo get a tailed block with an endless fell rove It. " ake the tail of the block feat to the malt about 15 het above the deck, or, if your mists are gone, to the highest sewn part of the vessel ; and when the tail-block is made feet, Ist one of the crew, separated from the rest, maks the signal required by Article 1 above. " As soon an the signal I. wen on shore a hawser will be bad ea the whip-line, and will be hauled cif to the ship by those en shore. " Wlaa the hawser is got on board the crew should at eau make it hat to the same part of the ship as the tailed block la made fast to, only about. 18 inches higher, taking ore that there are no turns of the whip-line round the lower. " When the hawser bee been made fait on board the sip mg directed by Article 1 above is to be repeated.

The people as shore will then haul the penes. in the sling to the shore, sod whim be has tended will haul back the empty sling to the ship for others. This operation will be repeated until all persona am hauled ashore from the shipwrecked vessel. "It may sometimes happen that the state of the War they and the condition of the ship will not admit of a hawse being set up, in which case a sling or life-buoy will be haslet off hutted, and the persona to be rescued will be bead thy=sort blamed of along the hawser. and crews of shipwrecked meads should loser fu mind that the success in landing them may, lnc great mar sure, dopes& upon their emblem and attention to the MO here laid down • and that by attending to them many lism ere annetally sa ved by the mortar and rocket appeal= as the meets of the United Kingdom.
