Tax great Chinch Rate battle has barn fought, and the House of Commons has care more deli berately declared that the rate oaght to he uncon ditionally abolished. Looking at the extraordinary preparations which the Tory party made in anticipa tion of this division, at the rare concentration of effort by which its adherents were mustered, and at the certainty thatthe sem , ..+ yen could not belongmain tained, we regard yesterday's division as a greater victory than the opponents of thu rate have here tofore achieved, decidedly greater than those suc cesses which, represented by a majority numeri cally higher, were the preliminary combats rather than the decisive battles of the campaign. The debate was on both aides worthy of the occa sion both in quality and spirit. Tug Italian Senate has by an all but unanimous vote conferred upon Views ICrousrua and his successors the title of "King of Italy." By this solemn act the Senate has but set its seal upon an accomplished fact. To call the King of twenty two millions of Italians King of Piedmont, or King of Sardinia, was as though the Queen of GREAT BRITAIN and IRELAND should be called Queen of the West Riding, or of the Isle of Man. That hardy and rigorous Subalpine province which bas been the cradle of New Italy, the nursery of its army, the home of its freedom, and the common refuge of its patriotic hopes, dies to History in giving birth to a nobler growth of Time. There is not a Monarchy in Europe that can boast a sounder or securer title than the Monarchy of Italy under VI TOR Emm•xt-EL. Conquest, assassination, diplomacy, violence, fraud, convenience, have esta blished some of those Continental monarchies which affect to be superlatively legitimate almost before the scandal of their origin is forgotten. But a king dom created by the free voice of a regenerated people ; a monarchy born in martyrdom, nurtured in national battle-fields, and consecrated by national sufferings and triumphs, is an innova tion not to bo endured without a protest by that old school of diplomatists which has "the monar " chical principle " in charge. Count Cavova will probably not be alarmed if the recognition of the King of ITALY by the Courts of Europe is un graciously withheld, or suffered rather than sanc tioned with a tardy acquiescence. As regards the Great Powers it matters little, except as a matter of form, what Russia says or thinks on such • ques tion, though it is hard to conceive what interest the Sovereign of AU the Rimini can have in con demning the establishment of • national monarchy, or what principle he opposes in opposing the dynastic unity of Italy. Of Austria we need say nothing; her good opinion is neither asked nor desired by the Cabinet and Parliament of Turin. Prussia, so far as Prussia represents the liberal intelligence et the great German nation, can scarcely hesitate to bail the accession of • liberal and united State to the number of the Great Powers. The French Empire is bound by its own " inexor " able logic " if not by feeling and policy, to welcome the presence of a grateful and congenial ally at the European Council-table, and to acknow ledge with a good grace so emphatic an assertion of the sovereign right of the national will. Great Briiain, as Vit.von Eitexeum. lately declared to his Parliament with a generous pride, has lavished her good offices and her sympathies on the Italian cause too freely to withdraw the light of her moral influence at the moment of the final act of homage to the principle personified by a constitutional King. For it deserves to be remembered that King FRANCIS 11. attributed his downfall to the confirmed hostility of England, among other equally sufficing reasons. Nor can it be pretended that the vote of the Senate at Turin is an act of usurpation or revolu tionary insolence. The moral unity of Italy under the constitutional sceptre of King Vulva MINA XCIL is complete, though Venetia and Ramie are still held in subjection by the foreigner. In this respect New Italy is more fortunate than Liberal Genenter, which aspires to unity but posemese neither a King nor a statesman with brain or heart to achieve it. Poor FRIDIZICa W iLuax, dallying with the revolutionary crown of an united Ger may in a fit of panic, and piously abjuring it when it was no longer in his grasp with an air ot sentimental indignation at the sacrilegious out rage on his royal conscience, will make a sorry figure in history by the aide of the brave and burly royal champion of Italy. It would be gross impolicy for the Liberal party in Germany to encourage any delay in the recognition of en example so worthy of all acceptation as the vote of the Senate at Turin. The impossibility of maintaining the separation of Rome and Venice from the Italian kingdom is becoming more flagrant every day, and must almost convince a generation of belated states men who were coeval with Ma-rrsesien be fore they were contemporseies of CAVOTIL The Venetian towns, as we learn, have eagerly celebrated the fall of Gaeta in the teeth of Austrian garrisons and guns. At Rome the National Com mittee scarcely dissembles its preparations for the reception of the KING of ITALY. The " gravi "tation," which Count CAVOUR described as a na tional no less than a natural law, operates with an unseen, yet constant and uncontrollable in fluence on the destinies of the new Italian nation. The Senate at Turin, in proclaiming the kingdom of Italy, simply acknowledges and affirms the order of Nature, and the will of a greater than any earthly Power. nil BISHOP or Dr MIMI. —The Hon. and Right Bay.

The only members of the government having seats in the house who did not veto for the bill were the Chancellor of the Exchequer and Mr. F. Peel, both of whom were in the minority. The importance of this division may be estimated by the fact that as many) as 55l members voted, being just 50 more than voted on the second reading last year, when there was also n great increase on previous votes. It is also 90 more than voted on the third reading last year. This is exclusive of the pairs, the publication of which will show still further to what an extent the opinion of the Rouse of Commons has been elicited upon this subject. The great efforts made by the conservative party are at tested by the fact that they brought up 32 more votes than the mooed readies lad year, notwithstanding which, sad the loss of several voles by meat elections, the sisal timings were able nearly to double their majority on the third reading last year.

HARMONIUMB-NZW MODIL.- COMM !SALK mg ON Ilk PIWIRMaseiL THE EXPRESS, THURSDAY EVENING, FEBRUARY 28, 1861. THE TURNBULL CORRESPONDENCE. --~-- Copies of the letters and minutes which have passed between the government and the Master of the Rolls relative to Mr. Turnbull's appointment and resigna tion were issued this morning from the parliamentary printing-office. In the letters to Mr. Turnbull notifying his appointment (dated August 13, ltis9) the Master of the Rolls says he is confident that that gentleman's ability and care will "produce • work of great value, to the public and of great credit to you yourself, and which may, I hope, lead to some ulterior employment, in which your knowledge sad abilities may be well employed. If, however, the government continue the grants hitherto made and premised by it for this purpose the employment I propose to you is one which ' will not be concluded for several years at least." On the Bth of August Sir John Romilly wrote to the Treasury, describing the kind et calendar which he required, and recommending Mr. Turnbull for the week, mentioning also the rate of remuneration which he proposed to gire ; sad the Treasury, reply ing through Mr. G. A. Hamilton, expressed their approval of the arrangements. On the 6th of the prevent month the Muter of the Rolla communicated the fact of Mr. Turnbull's resignation to the Treasury, ex. pressing the opinion that that gentleman had done his work " with great ability and great fidelity,' and adding : " It is not for me to suggest any course to their lord ships ; but if they should think it proper to suspend their acceptance of Mr. Turnbull's resignation, and permit me to press upon him the propriety of continuing his ser •ices, it would be a great gratification to me, end would, I think, be beneficial to the public. The circumstances, however, commeted with Mr. Turnbull's case are so peculiar, and have attracted so much notice, that I can only call their lordship,' attention to the circumstance ; but at the ems time I beg to state that if their lordships think fit to adopt this course, it will be at my earnest recom mendation, which I will put in any stronger form that may be considered suitable for the occasion, and consistent with the respect I entertain for them." In answer to the above we have the following Treasury minute, dated as recently as Monday last : " Write to the Master of the Rolls that my lords readily accept his Hooour's testimony to the manner in which Mr. Turnbull has performed his duties in preparing • calendar of foreign papers in her Majesty's State Paper-office, and willingly acknowledge that no ground has been shown for doubting that the work has been executed with ability and fidelity. An, however, that gentleman has placed his resignation in the hands of the Master of the Rolls, it becomes the duty of this board to consider whether there are circumstances to justify them in adopting the unusual course recommended by the Master of the Rolls, of requesting him to withdraw that resignation and to continue his services. My lords desire to abstain from noticing the discussions which have taken piece in public relating to Mr. Turnbull, but regarding the question simply in the light in which it is brought before than by the Master of the Rolls, they are of opinion that when circumstances have arisen which have imbued • gentleman entrusted with a peculiar duty to withdraw from it on the ground of public attacks, which have prevented him from motioning his services with satisfaction to bins self, it can 'molly be for the interests of the public, or of the Individual concerned, that he should be solicited to re sume that individious position. On these grounds, although my lords regret with the Master of the }Ulm that the govern• meat should be deprived of the services o a gentleman possessisr4 peculiar Aptitude for the special duties entrusted to him. they feel that they cannot, consistently with their duty, do otherwise than accept Mr. Turnbull's resignation." LATEST INTELLIGENCE. FRANCE THE CLERICAL WAR. (azErnmes mumALI PARR TIIIIIVIDAY. The Moniteur of to-day says :—" The Bishop of Poitiers has published a mandement in the Monde, containing allusions offensive to the government of the Emperor, and likely to arbitrarily disturb the conscience of the citizens. The mandement has been submitted to the high jurisdiction of the Council of State, which is charged to decide in cases of abuse." The Moniteur also publishes a circular, addressed by Count Persigny to the Prefect of Vienne, relating to the above mandement of the Bishop of Poitiers. The Minister says I considered that it would be contrary to the interests of the government to screen such excesses from the judg ment of public opinion, and I would not therefore take any measures to prevent the publication of documents in which are disclosed with such audacity the secret views of that party which, under the veil of religion, has no other aim than that of attacking the elect of the French people." (The portion of the pastoral letter of the Bishop of Poitiers alluded to in the above telegram, will be found in our Paris letter, printed in another column.] PARIS, WEDNESDAY EVENING. A project of address was read to-day in the Corps Legintatif. The following is a summary of its contents : The address expresses the thanks of the deputies on account of the Imperial decree of November, applauds the policy of the government in the interior, and expresses hopes for the maintenance of peace. The address then continues : We hope that the humane mission which France has fulfilled in Syria will be maintained. We approve the policy which your Majesty has fol lowed in Italy. The late diplomatic documents and the recent despatch of troops to Rome have given proofs of your constant efforts to ensure the secu rity of the papacy, and have preserved its temporal power as much as the force of circumstances and the resistance of the papal government to wise counsels have allowed. In thus acting your Ma jesty has completely responded to the religious sen timents and the political traditions of France. As regards the future, the Corps Legislatif entirely re lies on your Majesty's wisdom, being convinced that you will always be guided by the same principles and the same feelings, without allowing yourself to be discouraged by the injustice you have experi enced, and which distressed us." AUSTRIA. VIENNA, Fn. 28.

We can comprehend the public impatience better than we can satisfy it. We must, therefore, confine ourselves to stating that, by the tore of Count de Germiny. named Pro visiooal Director of the CALM Generale des Chemins de Fer, an examination of the books and accounts is being carried on. This investigation, the close of which it is impossible to Ex with accuracy, must require so much the longer time, that the numerous undertakings founded by M.

The Count de Ger miuy has not, as the Intliiwildanre of Brussels Lae ens. neously stated, called on any banker to assist him in his mission." EXPRESS FROM PARIS. THE EMPEROR AND THE BISHOPS. (raom our OWN COPAINSPONDEFf. ) PARIS, WIII:11111WAT Evict o. The war between the bishops and the govern ment is now assuming such proportions that a "cataclysm"—to use M. de Gramont's ex pression to Cardinal Antonelli—must be near at hand. The Bishop of Poitiers, in a published pastoral letter, compares the Emperor to Pontius Pilate ! This fact is announced by the Patrie, under the bead of " Latest News," and at tested, which "latest news" usually is not, by the signature of its leading writer, M. Paulin Limayrac. Here is the paragraph : The following is s pump which we extract from a man- date of the Bishop of Poitiers. The language of the worst passions in the worst days of our history is now outbid. Let the public read and judge. PAULRI LIMATRAC. " The mystery of iniquity runs its course ; what would you my of a child who should publicly use this language to its father : "'Father, your eldest son declares to you, in the face of the entire world, that you are obstinate and ungrateful, and that were it not for his unchangeable respect for you, he would abandon you to-morrow to the unfortunate fate which your headstrong blindness deserves.' Obstinate ! Is Rot the obstinate man he who continually harps upon im possible combinations—plans branded by the laughter of all statesmen? "Pilate, when he saw that his arguments prevailed no. thing, and that on the contrary the people became more and mote emoting, s►w and felt that after having so far yielded to every caprice of the multitude, he was on the point of being urged on to a crowning act of weakness, and be then called for water, and washing his bands, said, 'I am inno cent of the blood of this just man ; see ye to it.' This done, after having scourged Jesus, he delivered him to the Jews to be crucified. But has posterity ratified the absolution which Pontius Pilate gave to himself ; and did that washing of his hands render him innocent in the eyes of succeeding ages? Hear this: 'Now this man, branded as a deicide—this man nailed to the pillory of our symbol—who was he ? lie was not Herod, nor ecipha s, nor Judas, nor any one of the Jewish or Roman executioners. " This man is Pontius Pilate, and it is just that it should be so. Herod, Caiphas, Judas, and the rest had their part in the crime, but nothing would have been consum- mated without Pontius Pilate. " Pilate might have saved Christ, and but for Pilate Christ would not have been put to death. The signal for the execution could have been given by none but he. Wuh thy hands, oh Pilate ! Proclaim thyself innocent of the'death of Christ; our daily answer, and the unvarying answer of our remote posterity, will be, " I believe in Jesus Christ, who suffered under Pontius Pilate.' " A Paris letter in the independance says : Ten bishops have signified their adhesion to the pamphlet of Mgr. Dupanloup. The clerical war recommences, and the convocation of a council to A: the situation of the papacy is talked of. The Patric again contradicts the oft-recurring rumours that the French army is on the point of leaving Rome, and, by way of rendering its denial more emphatic, asserts that the "latest instruc tions sent to General de Goyon are in quite a con trary sense." I have reason to believe that in consequence of the firmness shown by England and other powers Syria will be evacuated by the French army within three months. The Pays, to-night, makes the re markable admission that "the state of Syria now offers no serious element of troubles," but, just by way of countenancing its old arguments, it adds' that "the bishops of the province, from a senti ment which will be readily understood, ask God, in their prayers, that the occupation of the French troops may be continued." The Bourse, after opening at yesterday's prices, gave way, and the Ratite closed, with a fall of 15c. both for cash and account, at 67fr. 135 c. and 67fr. 90c. Mobilier fell 3fr. 75c. The Orleans, Northern, and Western Railways fell 3fr. 75c. each, Eastern, 7fr. 50c., and Southern, 2fr. 50c. Lyons rose lfr. 25c. The Caisse Mires closed at 95fr., with a fall of sfr. ; but the Ports of Marseilles rose 10fr. It is reported that a decree of the Tribunal of the First Instanoe interferes with M. de Ger miny's mode of winding up M. Mires' affairs. He bad proposed to treat them all on a footing of solidarity, but the court, it is said, has ordered that the Roman railways, Porta of Marseilles, and other adventures shall be kept distinct from the Caisse Gdnerale. This arrangement is thought to be very bad for the share ' holders of the caisse. It will probably be proved that very large bribes have been given to high papal functionaries in the matter of the Roman railways. There is a rumour this evening, which lam inclined to 'relit, of an important arrest having been made of a connexion of M. Mires, but Ido not like to mention 11411101 in the absence of positive knowledge. False news, as you may well suppose, is superabundant just now. The evening papers announce that General Turr has arrived iu Paris. ITALY. On the 24th inst. the city of Turin offered to the King a crown, the produce of a subscription to which nearly all the inhabitants had contributed. At the same time a deputation presented to his Majesty the following address, composed by the senator Cibrario : Sire,—Although your Majesty. from natural inclination, as well as through the great mission You have received from Divine Provi.lcooe, is a citizen of Ita ly, the inhabitants of Turin, nevertheless, cannot forget that this city was the cradle where love for our great Italian native eountry came to maturity in your generous soul, and where the vast projects were planned that were destined to accomplish the independence of the glorious Peninsula. Therefore the inhabitants of this city, jealous of its glories. have thought that as soon as this difficult mission should be accomplished, it belonged to them to offer to your Majesty, upon your return from the beautiful provinces re cently united to the monarchy, a crown that shall be the emblernof the union of those warlike virtues that are the in. heritance of the twiner s of Savoy with those civic virtues neces.ry to the accomplishment of the great work—ltalian Unification. . . . . . . M e lay, sire, at the feet of your Majesty this humble homage, praying you to take into consideration tho modest nature of the gift, regarding rather the gratitude and devotedness of those who make this offering, and rather still its deep significancy. Long live the King of Italy. The crown consists of two branches of laurel and oak interlaced, and of a diamond star. On the gold baud uniting the two branches is the follow ing inscription, composed also by the Senator cibrario, who has a reputation for matters of this kind ;—" Victorio Ewanueli 11., Italici Imperil Restitutori, Cives Taurini, 1860." The last census of the several provinces gives the following results for the kingdom of Italy :—Pied moat, 3,815.637 inhabitants ; Sardinia, 573,115 ; Lombardy, 2,771,647 ; Modena, 609,138 ; Parma, 508,784 ; Tuscany, 1,770,338 ; ex-States of the Church, 1,960,360 ; Naples, 6,843,35 ; Sicily, 2,231,020 ; total, 21,092,020 mbabitants. General Cialdini has just written to the Gazetta del Pupolo, which had opened a subscription to pre sent bun with a wreath of laurel in gold with the word "Gaeta" in tri-coloured precious stones, that he cannot accept the gift, but requests the sub scribers to devote the money to the relief of the families of the soldiers who had fallen during the siege. When most of the Swiss regiments in the Neapo litan service revolted in 1859, there was a Swiss regiment of veterans which remained faithful to the royal cause. This regiment accompanied the King to Gaeta, and at the capitulation of that fortress became prisoners of war. It has now been decided that these men, 600 in number, shall be sent back to their own country. AMERICA AND CANADA. DISCHARGE OF THE FIIGITME SLAVE ANDERSON. LONDONDERRY, Wznumnsv Emma.

The King of the Belgium having paid, in July last, a visit to Ghent, was received with remarkable enthu siasm by the students of the university of that city ; and hie Majesty, ma mark of satisfaction, presented to the univer sity a gold medal, to be preserved in the library.

Gieborne and Fork, the go vernment engineers, has proceeded to Malta to arrange at the preliminaries for laying the Malta and Alex andrian cable, and will be assisted in his survey of the route by two of her Majesty's ships. According to the present arrangements the laying of the cable will commence in May, and if successfully done, the cable will be open to the public for the transmission of messages in July, and a s the defects in the Suez-Aden section of the i Red Sea cable are believed to be trilling, it is' probable that it may also be in working order in July, and thus place ' London in electric communication, via Malta, with Aden.- I Zoro'int and China Telegraph..

Nearly all the commanding officers of the volunteer caps have given in their adhesion, and the two or three who have held aloof have been so h ad premed by their members, that they will not be able to prevent them from taking part in the movement. As the calculations stand at present, the attendance of nearly 13,000 men may be relied on, and there is little doubt that the adhesions which are daily coming in will increase the effective ma terially on the day of action. The volunteers' railway tickets will be available from Saturday to Tuesdny morning, hut the bulk, of course, will go down and return on the Monday ; the South Coed Railway Company having adopted measures to secure the transit of any number of men to and from Brighton. It has been determined that the entire force on arrival shall be echelloned fronting the sea, forming a line three miles in extent. After the parade the men will march to the ground which has been selected for the operations, extending to Rottimelean on the one side, and as far as Palmer, to the north-east of Brighton, on the. other. A swage of elevated downs at these points presents fine opportunities for taking up positions on a sue cession of hills, and for display on the part of the attack ing anti defending parties. l'he volunteers generally who intend to be present on this occasion have expressed their satisfaction at the opportunit a ff orded them of being enabled to concentrate and act In masses. THE PROCTORIAL SYSTEM IN CAMIIRIDOE.—An emeute arising out of the attempted exercise of the prow. torial powers in Cambridge took place on Tuesday night. The Reverend J. W. Pieter,. of St. John's College, one of the proTroctors, was going his rounds, accompanied by hie attendants or "bull dogs," when they met two well-known courtesans, one at least of whom is possessed of consider. I able fiatic capabilities. It should be mentioned that since th e ac ti on "Ramp v. Neville," and various others, have been pending, no girls have been taken to the Spinning house, the proctors confining their attentions to the gowns men alone. The rencontre took place a little before eight o'clock, neer the pod:office, and the proctor demanded the girls' names. The first gave hers "Sally Crowe," but the second would give no other but "L oo ." The proctor cautioned them end was passing on, b u t irritated by some offensive expreasion from Crowe. turned and ordered the men to take the girls to the ginning -house. The bull dogs laid hands upon the girls who, however, turned upon them like a pair of mountain atta, and a most edifying battle royal ensued. This raged fur some time with varying success, and in the course of it the girls clothes suffered considerably, their crinolines being reduced to mere skeletons. It ended, however, in it being apparent that victory favoured the girls, for Crowe had her man "in limbo." and was knocking his bead against the shutters, while Loo's opponent was hop. dr rombal. By this time a concourse of more than 500 persons had assembled, and it was evident that their sympathies were with the girls. Mr. Pieter!, who had been looking on, here called upon a policeman for assistance, lint the officer was ordered not to interfere by a well known surgeon and merit• her of the town council, who was present Thus encouraged, the people who had been shouting and hallooing encourage ment to the girls, commenced bugling the proctor and his men, and what was a row would speedily have become a n ot. had not Mr. Pieter' prudently withdrawn his forces, leav ing the girls in possession of the field.
