Tan journalists of Paris are drawing showing conclusions from the stipulations of the Con vention of Gaatein and Salzburg. They see in those provisions a defiance of the whole some principles of international right that have been proclaimed by France and ap plauded by England, and which have produced the happiest results in Italy, the only country of Europe in which they have been applied ; and they stigmatise them as marking a return to the brutal system of the right of the stronger to dispose ab solutely of the weaker, which it was hoped our age had outgrown. The justice of such observations cannot be denied, but we suspect that M. DE Bisa.tnex reads them with much equanimity, and finds in them nothing which he had not fully an ticipated. That statesman has a mission to fulfil in Europe which he is discharging perhaps more effectively than he is aware of. He is teaching the world the worthlessness of mere idle sentimental opinion, by how many persons waver it may be held. He is strong because be takes junior estimate of the forces which move the world than his contemporaries. He is not the man to despise genuine effective public opinion, that power to which really belongs all the might and majesty which the thoughtless ascribe to its counterfeit. The two are probably oftener confounded in England than elsewhere. The Emperor of the FRENCH had important political objects to gain in Italy in the year 1859 ; he determined to advance the frontiers of France and to supplant Austria in the tutelage of Italy. He achieved both aims, and he used the power be thus gained, On the whole, generously and for the advantage of the Italian people. England looked on approv ingly, while the several States and Provinces of Italy, safe under the Emrenos's promise of non intervention, united themselves under Vito EMMANUEL. During the eighteen months which succeeded the pacification of Villafranca there can be no doubt that the public opinion of this coun try rendered very valuable aid to Italy ; it MOOD raged the Italians to go forward in the face of enormous difficulties, and we may fairly suppose that it was an element in the calculations of Nsro- LEON 111. At all events, as a matter of fact, the liberal course which he pursued in Italy greatly en hanced his position in the estimation of the people of this country. And it is not unreason►ble to suppose that with his knowledge of our sensitive ness to all that is generous in public conduct he should have foreseen this consequence. But there are people who believed in 1859 and 1860, and who believe still, that England, which never moved a man or a gun for Italy, did as much for her liberation as the power which won the battles of Magenta and Solferino. They say that Italy was freed by the force of public opinion. One reason why the acts of M. DE BISMARCK are marked with such decision is, that his bead is clear of all rubbish of this kind, and that he takes a correct view of the working of public sentiment and its relation to political action. He knows very well in what con dition the public opinion of the two great nations of Western Europe has left unhappy Po land, and what concurrence of circumstances and interests was necessary before that opinion could be made available for the advantage of Italy. The French journalists point out that if, as the Convention of Salzburg seems to imply, the right of the stronger is to be the standard by which a re distribution of European territory is to be regu lated, France may put in claims to a rectification of her frontier, and that certain points on the Rhine may be as desirable to her as Laeenburg or Kiel to Prussia. This is true enough ; but the re mark is speculative rather than political. Consi derations of this order, we may be sure, presented themselves to M. DE BISMARCK before his recent resolution was taken. A year ago there were those who professed to explain the unaccountable indif ference of the French EMPEROR to German aggres sion in Denmark by alleging that M. DE BISMARCK and NseoLsort 111. were acting upon a settled understanding, and that the compensations which France was to receive for the intended aggrandisement of Prussia were already arranged. This hypothesis, which is not unnatural, considered from the point of view of the Duke of Annuorzeanuo, has hitherto received no con firmation from publicly known facts, and we must look elsewhere for the causes of M. DE BISMARCK'S extraordinary confidence in the ability of Prussia to pursue a rapacious career with impunity. The Prussian Premier knows that of the two Powers which might be inclined either to oppose his proceedings in the Duchies or to take advantage o f them to the injury of Prussia, both are bound in fetters. Austria must sign conventions, trea ties, or whatever else he may prescrfbe, because she is still unreconciled with Hungary, and. be. cause an alliance between Prussi► and Italy is a contingency against which she must be on her guard. In ordinary circumstances France would be a much more formidable observer of her ag gressive career, but at the present moment the military power of Francs in Europe is nentralised.l The EMPEROR, but lately so mighty that not a l cannon could be fired from the Sound to the Dar- danelles without his leave, mist now see the new law which he fancied ho had inaugurated in Europe, and for which he has received so much praise, trampled under the jack. boots of Prussian generals. It was unnecessary for the France to deny that the EMPEROR was pre paring a protest against the recent convention. The EMPEROR was not likely to protest against the inevitable. The public opinion of France con- 'ILBSS, WEDNESDAY B' up in her place whip anlitems were with en aseempanisment by the band. d e, for Debug, from a el the sage re the, ivory word of which was lost to the tribunes, which I se answer was vouchsafed.

Thou dowers were laid by the Duke on the 1 j pe destal, and along with them all those of the primness wed primes, till the fregraret mass rose high up to the fest I el the statue. Her Majesty plea walked back to the position, and pre-! wetly her carriage left the square amid the loud shouts of the deeply-moved people. The whole ceremony lasted hardly 20 minutes. When the last of the royal carriages had disappeared, the renleitede, which had loos bees pent up at the leash of the market-plus, brake in like • swell keg tide upon the empty area, which was soon black with its swarming mums. Only • few minutes later, the Queen, who had been driving round the gaily-mutes:led streets, r eappeared once more unexpectedly on the densely - bese t, square to obtain one more glimpse of the newly-inaugerstmi mersament. The crowd, among whom her carriage wad with difficulty make its way, greeted her enthasiasticalic on her progress, and it was noticed that as the Quest Tr Lshe had a smile and a kind word for the sculptor ad, who, together with Mama.

J I have been concise, sod, so doubt, dry in the above del seeiption, because the some, although pleasing, and eves touching, had nothing in it that Gould be called Imposing, and the very atmosphere of the place seemed to give something of German domesticity and sentiment.

One could almost have cried out " Musk, awake him ; strike l" and expect the trentiformation is the Winter's Tale repro duced before us. Her Majesty went through the whole ceremony with her wonted command over her (eelier. The Princess of Prussia was visibly affected by the seine before her. The men was too paiefully dazzling, and the gilding of the breeze two vivid, to allow one to do judos to she merits of the stelae as a work of art, or M enable me at this moment to give a description of it.

The doctrine of nationalities which the Fmresos proclaimed must be s acrificed, be cause he is busy with another "doctrine " in America—that which bears the name of Mr. Mormon. And it is sacrificed, torn to shreds, and scattered to the winds. The neutrality of the American Government, which refuses to hasten • solution of the difficulty, either by war or by the recognition of the Archduke Maxierrusir sa Em peror of Mexico, detains a French army in that country which is not large in itself, but which is a pledge that a vast army will be constantly held in readiness for its reinforcement. To this pass the " tact " of the EMPEROR has brought him. He is bound hand and foot in Europe. No American statesman in power is committed to the maintenance of the Morraos doctrine. That d oc trine has always been the stalking-horse of the public men in America who were ruined by the war of Suasion, while Mr. SzwArin has distinctly declared, in a deapatch to the late Mr. Darrow , that the policy of the American Government in Mexico was one of non intervention. That Government, therefore, can very well bide its time in dealing with the Mexican difficulty ; but the defeat of the Emperor of the FRENCH in Europe is both national and personal. Important questions which fi ve years ago would scarcely have been raised, and would certainly have not been decided without him, are now being settled on principles of which be has repeatedly declared himself the opponent. There is no chance th a t the American Governme nt will give the EMPSROB, the least assistance to extricate him from his difficulties ; it will neither precipitate war nor help to make peace in Mexico. A policy of silence and inscrutability may be as effective at , Washington as before now it has been at Paris., And such appears to be that of Mr. Joanna. Hi is a policy which compels the EMPEROR to keep the peace under any and all circumatanoes. , In Europe be could only enter upon a war with, one of the great Powers of the continent cm 000 . dition of renouncing his designs in Mexico, sad I confessing the great mistake of his life. In the meantime, the just influence of France Is lost to the cause of liberty in Europe, and States and populations are chaffered for as if they were so many flocks or farms. If we are sorry for this state of things, we know that we cannot regret it so much as liberal Frenchmen do. THE QUEEN AT COBURG. AUGUST it): 1865. . ' rmsoamca.) • IA AND PACIFIC suns. SOUTHAMPTON, AUGUST 30. The Royal Mail Company's Mame: Seine, with the above mails, has arrived here. She brings 165 passengers, including the Hon. Mr. Jermya, from Lima, Generale Preston and Walker and Mr. Benjamin, Secretary of State of the Confederate States, also 1,686,853 dole in specie, 2,566/. worth of jewellery, 6,7001. worth ot precious stones, and a general cargo. of the 2 nd Th e Tasmanian, with the mails instant, arrived at St. Thomas'e on the 16th ECIC instant. The revolution in Peru was gaining ground. The presidential government in Lower Peru was gradually beeoming confined to • narrower circle. The new ship of war Union, on arriving at Val paraiso from England, went over to the revolu tionary party, and the Peruvian minister for Chili left his place and proceeded in the Union to take command with the rest of the revolutionary fleet. The revolutionists were making • combined move ment, and had arrived at Buaoho, near Lime. Busi ness throughout the entire country was unsatisfac tory, and the prospects o f the President Pizet were gloomy. Exchange, 37d. The Seine left St. Thomas's on the afternoon of the 13th. Shortly after 10 o'clock, when about 50 miles from land, the veasel was disco_ vered to be on fire in the forehold. Most strenuous exertions were immediately taken by Captain IftevetAto oon fi ne the fire, preven t all the access of air, and the ship was immediately turned with all speed for Bt. Thomas, arriving there about 4 o'clock on the morning of the 14th inst., when with the combined assistance of the crews of the company's vessels in the harbour, the fire was ultimately esti nguished without reoourse to scuttling the vessel, which at onetime was feared. Holes were cut through the ship's deck, and water poured irt which materially subdued the fire, but not until the fore-hold was nearly gutted, and a great deal of cargo destroyed, mostly cigars. I The passengers, in appreciation of Captain Revett's 'active and prompt exertions and the discipline of the crew, presented him with a piece of plate and a testimouial. The religious bills under discussion in Chili had been passed by the Chamber of Deputies. Those not professing the Roman catholic religion are now allowed to worship under other edifice', and dissen ters are allowed to establish private schools for the instruction of their children in their own religion. There was no business news. Exchange, 46 d . to 47d. In Guayaquil everything was quiet. After the revolution trade steadily improved. The lands belonging to the revolutionists were confiscated and sold. The tobacco season had commenced in Esmeralda. The crops were unusually large and fine. The town of Buenaventura was full of armed mes, who called themselves the Panama expedi tion. They stated they were awaiting the arrival of another force, and that they would then march for Panama, their object being the overthrow of that government. The revolution in Ecuador was at an end, and everything was quiet. The government of Nicaragua had d e li ve red up G en eral Barrios to the government of Salvador on • contract being signed that his life should be spared. At Trinidad the weather was fine, and the crops were looking well. At Barbados' planting was going on rapidly, and provisions were cheaper. The town was busy. The weather wee find at Demerara, and the ma nufacturing operations were progressing. Coals were scarce, and but little produce offering. Freights unchanged. At Jamaica the drought was over. The island had been visited with rains. Business was im proving. The orop of sugar *roped' that of last year by 2,000 hhds. The crop of pimento was small, but the coffee crop was expected to be good.

WEATHER REPORT.--(THI 8 DAY. EXPRESS FROM PARIS. MOM On OWN PARIS, Vomit $111311116. • Por once the weather is a proper subject of con versdtion, and even for a few lines. AMC a day of intense heat yesterday, Paris was visited with a deluge of rain about 3 this morning, and it has rained a sort of autumn drizzle nearly without in terniission ever since. The fêtes at Portsmouth interest people here mo re than those at Cherbourg or Brest, and there is great disappointment felt at the idea that the weather, which spoiled the dis play at Cherbourg, should again prove un favourable to the united fleets. Although the same interest is not felt here in naval as in military reviews, and only the govern ment papers seem to have wished to draw attention to the visit to the French ports—a suffi cient reason, by the way, for the rest of the press to say as little about it as possible—there is, at least, a great curiosity felt to bear of the reception that will be given to the French sailors in England. The absence of royalty on both aides takes a great deal from the interest with which the event would otherwise have been regarded ; and it is, at least, unfortunate that advantage has not been taken of the facilities of railway travelling to enable Prince Alfred to spend a day with his brother sailors. His presence would more than compensate for the shortcomings which are at least not improbable in the arrangements for the fides. The Emperor came to Paris, as stated in my last, to-day, and received the letters accrediting the new Spanish ambassador. His departure for Biarritz and interview with the Queen of Spain will depend on the Empress's return. She is expected on Thursday at Fontainebleau. The news of the suf ferers continues favourable. Princess Anna' health is nearly re-established. There is an interesting report published by Dr. Colucoi, president of the sanitary department Egypt, on the cholera. He traces the epidemic the Mecca pilgrimage. On the Durban-13airam, the day of sacrifice which terminates the religions observances of the Hadj, there are often from 7t. to 8130 thousand pilgrims assembled at Mount Ararat. The march of these crowds through long deserts of sand, the unaholesome food, habit of burying the dead close to the surface, be uncovered by a few days of wind, infesting air, have all weakened the constitutions of pil g rims, and made them a ready prey to disease. Add tothistheexhalations from the offal, blood, bones remainigg from the slaughter of some . millions of sheep sacrificed, and which in the burn ing sun putrefy in a few hours, and the results are • a matter of course, in fatal epidemics. This year t.. Kurban-Bairam was in the month of May—l need not remind your readers that the Mussulman year of twelve lunar months—and the mortality was - dreadful that 100,000 fell in a fortnight. During the entire pilgrimage, from the entry into sacred precincts, the pilgrims do not change scanty clothing which custom prescribes, filthy though it may be, carefully treasure when they resume their ordinary garb to distri bute in shreds among their friends on their return. Those of the dead are equally taken care to be given as relics to their friends. would seem, therefore, that the pilgrimage is, . fact, an annual assemblage of human beings doomed to more than decimation, and that survivors adopt every imaginable preeautio carry the atmosphere of disease thus produced with them to their homes. The Sultan's goi ment may do something to increase the danger. withdrawing, as it has done of late, the allowed for covering over the animal remains intensify the infection ; but it does not seem it or any other power can interfere with wh regarded as a religious duty by a large portioi the human race. The question is surrounded • difficulties, such as an oriental government hope to grapple with. This has been a bad year for mountain dim The Bund of Berne announces the death German, M.

(ram ous BPICIAL PORTSMOUTH, illOtrliT The French fleet arrived at noon to-day, • ships are now resting quietly alongside our fleet, forming two lines, the French ships the place of honour nearer to the shore, lines being about 200 fathoms apart. Everythl has gone off in perfection ; the auspicious me came with brightness, and a brisk wind blowing from W.N.W. blew across the great billy range of new fortresses upon Portedown-hill, those costly luxuries of protection that never will look more ludicrously out of date than they do now before they are half completed. The French captains, how ever, will have seen by this time that Portsmouth is protected more by the hidden bulwarks of sand and those two natural guardians of rock, tale Long Rock and the Nab, which surround the entrance to Spithead anchorage, than by any of the forts in progress for the purpose. No doubt, the French seamen know the charts of our coast as well as ours do those of France, but this is quite another thing from being able to take a fleet through this most intricate channel. To enable the French ships to navigate the waters at Spit head it was necessary to send on board each vessel a master of the English navy to pilot them from off the east end of the Wight to their safe berths within the shelter of that beautiful little gem of the sear—the Wight. Here the two, fleets now ride at anchor in water from 10 to 20 fathoms, and perhaps two miles in width—the whole breadth from the main Mad to the island being about five miles. The natives of these hardy regions and all 11 visitor sightseers were first roused to the important events of the day by the booming of the guns saint ing the Lords of the Admiralty, as they embarked at 9 o'clock to go out to meet the French Minister of Marine and his fleet. The people came hurrying out upon Southosa-common, and while many of the early birds took up a strong position on the green slopes of old Souther& Castle, thousands crowded the line of the esplanade that runs from this point towards Portsmouth, and covered the beach down to the water's edge. The French colours were flying in company with the Union Jack in every direction, the whole place, the churches especially, literally glowing with Sap.
