NOV. it YRNTERDAT, a telegram from Turin informed the English pablic that "in consequence of a " very mama representation received from the • Preash Government the King VICTOR EMMA. SLIM has refused to grant permission to the Priam de CARD.NIN to accept the Regency of Central " Italy, which has been offered to him." And this morning a despatch from our Paris correspondent Worms es that the news is false, that the KING has not yet either given or refused the necessary perm*. don, and that the only truth is the first stetseasat is, that the French Government hes formally ad vised that of Sardinia to withhold its consent to the wishee of Central Italy. We are very glad of this contradictioc, which wassesessary to prevent a most serious degradation of Piedmont in thesym of free men all over the world. It was bad enough for Generals LA lAILIIOZA and DADORMIDA to be held up to the world with their colleagues as crowning an administration conspicuous for the absence of firmness and steadiness of aim by a signal demonstration of irresolution and imbecility. But it was still worse to be gibbeted as carrying out the behests of a foreign sovereign. This correction is, there!,,,, most timely, and there is still room to hope that the Ministers of the Kitio may yet make up their minds to embrace a wise and independent policy. When the Governors and Generals of Central Italy resolved to convoke the assemblies of the several states, and invited them to elect the Prises EUGENE as their Regent, they must have known that their project was distasteful to both the authors of the treaty of Villarreal*. Even if the clear and positive terms in which Count WAnzerext denounced the /scheme to the Sardinian Government two months ago were a secret, the Estreaol's own explicit declaration to the Tuscan deputise, that he must strenuously oppose the plan, was well known. This opposition, which at that time was no reason why the Governors of Central Italy should desist from a temente deemed requisite for the safety of their States, became a powerful motive for urging it forward from the moment of the publica tion of Locus NAPOLEON'S letter to the King of SARDINIA. It wee, indeed, announced early in the week by one of the most careful, and generally most correct, of our contemporaries, that the opposi tion of France had been withdrawn, but the event disproves the too hasty assertion. Our well informed correspondent at Turin told as yester day that this act of the riders of Central Italy had not been concocted with the Sardinian Governments but had taken it by surprise. We may °wielder, then, that F.istst, RICASOLI, ?ANTI, and GARI BALDI, in adopting the course we have seen them taking, were willing to put the resnlution and energy of the Sardinian Government to the test. Certainly that is the effect of what they have done. kiedmont, which, under CAVOUR, earned its position st 'lie head of Italy by the courageous pursuit of a nation`* and independent policy, !s now M Drove whether it Ii Stijl worthy of that place. Perhaps it is hiready too late ; perhaps it is to Central Italy that Sardinia is in tura to owe that eman cipation from foreign influence which it pro cured for the Duchies. We hope not; we hope that the stability, and organisation, and experience of constitutional government which the Piedmontese have acquired will still serve to support and guide the young liberty of Central Italy; but as Englishmen we would rather see the freedom of Central Italy saved, if need be, by the sword of OAMLEALDI than permitted to risk decorously for the seavenience of fisiaiiiiits at Turin. We are not die poled to underrate the difficulties by which the Sardi nian Ministers have found themselves surrounded ever since Count CAVOCR was jerked from the side of his Sovereign by • foreign Power t but we wish that we could believe th.y had some brettiog sense of the powerful means of oveteeming these difficul ties which the spirited sad independent con duct of the people of Central Italy has since offered to them. They have sow ono more opportunity of retrieving their charac , er as statesmen, and we easneetly hope that they will comprehend its critical importance. Thu remarks we lately telt it ear duty to melees the loss of the Royal Clearlor have brought as • .saber of letters expressive of regret at our noes meets, but in no instance cootreverting them. Is truth, the points of public interest which the ad mitted facts of the wreck appeared toss to suggest. and which we is the fair exercise of our calling sub mitted to the attention of our readers, were not designed to throw blame on any person, but, on the contrary, were selected with a .crapulous anxiety to spare the feelings of the living and to respect the memory of the dead. Indeed, in the absence of eat• flcient inquiry, we had no personal charges to bring, and even had the materials existed we should have been loth to bring them, and still more loth to hszard insinuations ; we even guarded ourselves religiously against adopt ing the lent. vant, and, as we conceive, •a eoneidered imputations which were more thus whispered at the Inquest, and we were espesially fateful to speak of the ship and of the apparent causes other fate in se impersonal a meaner as Friable. When we spoke of " the melee in which " the evidence" (at the Inquest) " was profeesionally " handled on behalf of the owners of the ship, or by " way of satisfaction to mourning relatives," being I calculated to divert the inquiry, 13 embarrass, or to " evade it," we were very far—the words we have quoted forbid the supposition—from suggesting any foregone design on the part of the owners to disturb or divert the evidence; but we meant to express • conviction, which we still entertain, that an ioquiry ' attended with so much unavoidable display of feeling en either side was unsatisfactory to the public inte rests concerned. If we spoke of " professional' usistanee at the Inquest, we relied on the public reports of the pro ceedings, in which we found it stated that " Mr. " MELLott, of Warrington, solicitor, attended for " Messre.DlßßS end BRIGUT, the owners of the Royal " Charter." A correspondent, however, who writes with authority, informs us that Messrs. GIBBS and BRIGHT were not in fact the owners of the Royal CAarter, but only the agents for the Liverpool and Australian Navigation Company, to which the ship beluga& As to the construction of the ship, an_ ether correspondent, equally trustworthy, assures us that the Royal Cltarier was "an extremely strong " and powerful ship, built of fine, and chiefly Stat. fordshire iron," and reminds us that she had made " several most successful voyages, and had been over " and over again surveyed by the Board of Trade and other competent authorities, who all spoke "most highly of her; moreover, that Dr. Soo/muff, " whose' Voyage in the Royal Charter' hu recently " been published, speaks more then once of her "strength, and many admirable qualities in " storm •od " Nothing then or after " wards," we are &seared, " has been spared "to render her one of the strongest as "she was one of the finest ships afloat. She was a "most carefully built and an expensive ship, and "use when she did strike, it seems to have take* "six hours before she broke up." All this we have no doubt is strictly correct, but it does not in any way deal with the circumstances immediately pre ceding and attending the loss of the ship, into which it will be the office of the Board of Trade to inquire next week, to the satisfaction, we doubt not, of the responsible owners or agents, than whom we are well aware no shipowning fins in this country enjoy a higher character public and private, or are more de servedly esteemed. We conclude this brief explana tion, in the words of Mr. MELLOR, who daring the Inquest appealed to the judgment of the Press, and generously volunteered to pat any questions, as • friend, which any mourning relative might suggest. On one occasion the Coroner is reported to have said, 1 " I think we are going too far." "If this was an " inquiry against Captain TAYLOR," replied Mr. Minuet, with expellent feeling and discretion, " it " would not be evidence ; but as it is as inquiry UM "M. &sea of other people, the answer aught to be " taken even on hearsay, for what it is worth." Now, we repeat, we have brought no charge', made no insinuations ; we bays dealt simply with the admitted facts of this terrible disaster, and we only ask that the considerations we have raised—not, we entreat our correspondents to believe, without a due sense of responsibility, nor at random—may be ° taken for what they are worth." 41L011111.

THE IMPRESS, SATURDAY EVENING, NOVEMBER 12, 1869. -, 1 EXPRESS FROM PARIS. traoic ova OWN ourr.) PARIS, FRIDAY EVZNING. The statement which has been flying all over Europe by telegraph to-day that the King of Sardinia, in accordance with " very precise counsels" from France, has refused to authorise Prinoe de Carignan to accept the regency of Central Italy, is • piece of false news. It was circulated last night at the Schiller festival on apparently good authority. To-day at the Bourse it missed unchallenged, although the government must all the time have known better, and the telegram is reproduced by all the evening papers (the Pays excepted) without contradiction. All that is true, how ever, is that the advice alluded to haa been given by France, but I am enabled to state that down to • very late hour this evening no official intelligenoe of the advice having been followed had been received, and, moreover, those bat acquainted with what is passing in the councils of the King of Sardinia feel quite certain that it will be respect. fatly but firmly declined. The Pays, which alone has had its cue from Count Walewski's office, knowing that the false despatch will be exposed to-morrow, takes no notice of its existence, but in a leading article it speaks of the election of Prince de Carignan as a " very grave event," one tending to embarrass the proceedings of the congress, and as one that may justify the King of Naples and the Emperor of Austria in marching troops into the duchies and legations. Under duse circumstances the lays is not surprised to learn that the French government has formally advised the King of Sardinia to refuse the Regency offered by the assemblies to the Prince de Carignan, and it hopes that Victor Emmanuel will defer to the prudent advice of France." The announcement in the Morsiteur prodnoed no effect whatever upon the Bourse. The Rents closed at yesterday's price, 70tr. 16c.; Mobilier fell 2fr. 60o.; the Northern Railway rose 3fr. 76a.; the other lines fell about 2fr. 60c. The Schiller oentimary festival was celebrated last evening by the Germans in Paris with very great enthusiasm. About 3,000 persons crowded into the Cirque de l'lmperatrioe, and upwards of 600, who were unable to obtain places, had their money returned at the doors. The entertainments eonsiated of music, including a " Schiller March," written for the occasion by Meyerbesr, and recita tions of original and classic German poetry. Two beautiful pieces by a modern post, M. Pfau, of Berlin, were greatly applauded. M. Dawison, one of the most celebrated actors in Germany, reed a stirring scene from Don Carlos. All the Gorman legations in Paris were represented. To-night there is a grand Schiller banquet in the Salle Bar tholecoy. A very poor pamphlet by a writer of considerable note and some talent, M. Louis Joardain, of the Sleek, was brought out • few days ago under the title of " Goerre aux Anglais." Notwithstanding the ad captandum heading, I did not think it worth notice, because I knew that it was not inspired by the government (M. Jourdain is in the opposition camp), and that it was not the expression of the opinion of any considerable section of the liberal party in Franee.

FLORENCE, Nov. 6. There ia but one thought now occupying the minds of the Florentines, and it is that of opposing, even with arms, the restoration of the dethroned Prince. The decision of the national Assemblies of Central Italy convoked for to-morrow will have the effect of rendering still stronger the bonds by which four millions of people have been united to the constitutional state of Sardinia. The authority of Victor Emmanuel will thus be increued by this new political fact, and his interference in the affairs of Central Italy will be rendered more and more effi cacious by it. The financial question will be also dwelt upon by the Tuscan ministers to-morrow. From the official return which they will commu nicate to the Chamber, they will show that they are able to meet the daily increasiag ,expenses of the state with the regular resources which are within the lawful reach of the ministers of finance. Should circumstances require a larger amount of money the government will ask permission to use the credit which may easily be obtained from the 40,000,000 of the state property yet untouched. It is really a con soling spectacle which one now witnesses in this eountry. Here is t population of more than 1,779,000 souls al most entirely animated by the spirit of union. This is an important fact, and is in itself the meat eloquent eulogy of the go vernment. At the beginning of the liberal move ment there was still a strong party which was ready to support the son of the Duke, had he granted a liberal constitution. It was the conservative party, formed by a great number of priests and some few noblemen of the country. It was not so much af fection foe the dynasty of Lorraine as the fear of seeing the democratic element get the upper band in the Chamber that made them hostile to the newly-established liberal government. The wise and moderate course followed by the Assembly, however, soon dispersed those unfounded fears ; so that, except a few friends of Countess Waleweki, and a few high dignitaries of the ehnrch, there is not now an intelligent citizen of Tuscany who has not given his hearty support to the liberal govern ment of the country. The lower clergy are now convinoedthat religious institutions are not incurring any danger whatever. The reforms introduced by Avvocato Salvagnoli in the old and illiberal system of education have met with the general approbation of all enlightened citizens. The fine arts have shone forth with fresh splendour, for numerous orders have been given to the artiste of Florence by the new national government. Leopold was so mean a Prince that sculptors and painters could get but little money out of his pockets, or from the treasury of the Duchy. Two years ago it was decided that a marble pedestal for the celebrated porphyry cup of the Pitti Palace should be ordered of Dare, one of the ablest sculptors of Florence. Balduseroni was therefore ordered to ask the price of the work, but when referred to the Grand Duke it was found too high. The sculptor answered that it would be cheaper in bronze, and, after a great deal of hesitation, the second plan was adopted. The new rulers of Tuscany have now done away with sack paltry meanness ; the cup of the Palazzo Pitti is to have a more expen sive marble pedestal. This new impulse given to ' the tine arts has rendered the government very popular among sculptors, painters, and architects, who, as you know, are very numerous here, and per haps constitute the most influential class of Tuscan citizens. In my former letters I told you that the Sardinian colonel who wag sent here at the beginning of the war to take the direction of the war department, had completely failed in organising the Tuscan army. Col. Decardens was therefore recalled, and Gen. Cadorna sent to Florence to fill the important office. The Monitore Toseano of last night gives us a proof of the new minister's activity by publishing the decree of organisation henceforth to regulate the formation of the Tuscan army. The infantry brigades of Pisa, Siena, Leghorn, and Pistoja, of two regiments each, will form two new divisions. Two other battalions of Bersaglieri, the 3rd and 4tb, will be likewuis organised. The four existing batteries of artillery will be increased by two more. Each brigade will have two batteries of 8-pounders and one of 16. The ducal regiment of dragoons is going to take the name of Cavalleggieri di Firenze ; the second of Lucca. The companies of engineers and pioneers, as well as the commissariat, medical service, and the other minor services of the army, are also to be or ganised on the same system as that now adopted by Sardinia. With the new organisation the nume rical strength of the Tuscan army will be from 30,000 to 40,000 men within a period of four or five months, and will constitute four splendid divisions dressed and drilled like those of Piedmont. This is the best way of accomplishing the formation of a powerful State to which the future destinies of Italy will be entrusted. People here have been greatly pleased with what some of the Piedmontese papers believe to be the an swer given by Victor Emmanuel to the Emperor's letter :—" If you have your engagements of Villa franca so much at heart, I have on my part another more solemn engagement to perform, that which springs from the unanimous votes of the populations of Central Italy." Of course lam not in a position to know if these are really the words employed by the King ; but I have reason to believe, on good authority, than when Louis Napoleon handed over the famous letter to, General Dabormida, he told hint what it contained. The gallant general, who is not a poiitical genius, could not help humbly re monstrating that if the bargain of Villafranca was a sacred one for hie Imperial Majesty, the principle of the popular suffrage adopted in Central Italy, form ing one of the moat important elements of the con stitutional and national systems of Sardinia, could not be disregarded by his honest and patriotic master. I wee going to clone my letter when I heard that the new Sardinian loan had almost all been taken up by Italian bankers. Five millions have already been subscribed in Central Italy, twenty in Lombardy, and the rest in Oenoa and Turin. The organisation of the Modenese and Parmesan army is proceeding with astonishing activity and success. On Wednen- day last Count Bethlen; the Hungarian colonel of the Parmesan Hussars—a fine regiment—made • spirited address to his soldiers whilst they were parading before him for the first time. The new batteries of artillery are now completed, owing to the intelligent arrangements made by Colonel Cltriwasby, an able aide-de-camp of General Bem during the Hungarian war.

To the Right Hon. Sir 13, C. Lewio, Bert., M. P., Secretary of State, &c. Bir,—We, the undersigned inhabitants and ratepayers the perish of Bt. George-in-the-Bast, beg leave most respect fully to protest against the proposed introduction of a poise forte into our parish church for the purpose of overawing the parishioners,— lat. Because it is not necessary. . . There has been no mob et rabble in the understood sense of the words in the parish church at any time. Neste of the usual results of an assemblage of unruly characters has ap. peered. No awe has come before the police courts of pickpockets or such like. 2. Beaus, it is The parish church is a place of free resort for the perishioo ere, end the presence of a police force would deprive it of that character; we feel that we do sot deserve treatment like this. For more than fifteen years we have born. with patience and kindly forbearance with Mr. King's offensive and unbecoming omduct, and our present open opposition to him has been forced on us by his vexations and annoying renitence to our legal right* of electing a lecturer, the first outbreak having been caused by the violent interruption of the lecturers' service by one of the curates, acting as he said by the rectors , order. 3. Bemuse the disturbance of Sunday last was provoked by the rector's intemperate sermon in the morning, and by his having delayed his afternoon servioe so as to club with the assembling of the large congregation which attends the lecturer's service. The prevalent conviction that Mr. King had withdrawn from his consent to submit to the bishop's arbitration on the points in dispute with as, and had limited it in an unbecoming manner, gave provocation to the parishioners thus brought into undesirable collision with the rector end his assistants, who are principally non-parishioners. On those grounds, or protest, we have been driven into public opposition, because our rights have been assailed, and our consciences offended, and beams the law affords no redrew for such grievances as ours. And we appeal to the legislature to interpose on our behalf. Sigurd by Fifty-one Ratepayers. Nov. 11, 1859. THE HARPERS FERRY INSURRECTION. Ossawatomis Brown was put upon his trial at Charlestown, Virginia, on the 27th ult., the wart having refused after hearing testimony to bia,physical onedition and ,appeals of counsel in his behalf, to postpone theme.

The prisoners Brown and Edwin Copple were manacled together. Brown seemed weak and haggard, with eyes swollen from the effects of wounds on the head. Coppie is unin jured.

John Copland M a bright mulatto, about twenty. five years old, sad Shields Green is a dark negro, sired shout thirty. Sheriff Campbell read the commitment of the miscast; who were charged with treason and murder. Mr. Harding, the attorney for the State, asked that the court might assign Colloa4 for the prisoners, if they had nowt. . . . . . . The court then inquired if the prisoners had oounsel ? In reply Brown addressed the court se follows : ". Virginians—l did not ask for any quarter at the time I was taken. I did not sok to have my life spend. The Governor of the Stele of Virginia tendered me him as surance that I should have a hair trial ; but under no cir. cnmetanoss whatever will I be able to have a fair trial. 11 you seek my blood, you ma have It at any moment without this mockery of a trial. I have bad no counsel— I have not bees able to advise with anyone. I know nothing about the feelings of my fellow prieoners, and an utterly unable to attend in any way to my owe defence. My memory don't serve me—my health is ineatficitatt, although improving. There are mitigating cireamstanoes that I would urge in our favour, if a fair trial is to be allowed us; but if we are to be forced with a um form—a trial for execution—you might sure yourselves that trouble. lam ready for my fate. I do not ask a trio!. I beg for no mockery of a trial—no insult—nothing bat that which coo science gives, oe cowardice would drive you to practice. I ask again to be excused from the mockery of a trial. Ido sot even know what the special design of this examisation le. I do not know what is to be the beaedt of it to the common• wealth. I have now little farther to ask, other than that I may not be foolishly %suited °sly OM cowardly barbarian" insult thou who fell Into their power." The trial proceeded, however, sod at the latest dates the case for the prosecution had clued.
