Snow the external and accidental opposition of the arguments brought forward in the House of Lords last night for and against the Duke of MsaLsimornies motion concerning the teaching of the Bible in Government Schools in India, there is a deeper and essential agreement which becomes more unpleasant the more it is reflected on. The Duke argues that es we rule India as " Christian conquerors," we should deal courageously with native beliefs, trusting to the blessing of Gov. He is answered that, although his end and aim are gond, native feeling is in a state of too great tension to permit even the discussion of his proposal. In their lordships opinion the celestial guarantee offered by his grace, excellent as it would be in quiet times or even under moderate stress of circumstances, is one on which nothing im portant must be risked. But se to what use should be made of our despotic power in India when we are a little stronger, there exists, so far as we may fairly judge from an uncle. veloped debate, very little difference of opinion in the House. We cannot but think it unfortu nate that the subject should have been pressed on the attention of the Peers under circumstances which forbade its calm consideration. The spread of the Christian religion in India is an object in which the warmest interest is felt in this country, as the large sums devoted to the support of missions to that country show. Of late years, however, a vague opinion has become dif fused that we ought not simply to rely on the facilities of reaching the native mind which our position as fellow-subjects of the natives of India gives us, but that we are in a manner bound to employ the power of a dominant race to recommend our faith. We are quite aware that, even in its excesses, this mid recoils from all the grosser forms of violence--that, if possible, it would persuade itself that it acknow ledges the great principles of religious liberty ; but, after all, it is ready to impose a Christian establishment on a heathen country, to be paid for by heathen tax-payers. It would have been well if the justice of these claims could have been examined last night with the deliberate ness which becomes a subject so important, and in presence of men well qualified to discuss the subject from the point of view of Indian adminis tration, and of others thoroughly acquainted with the opinions and expectations of the religious public. The remarkable unanimity and earnestness with which all discussion of the Duke of Mam.stotouun's motion was deprecated by peer after peer will nut escape attention. The impression is almost inevitable that there is at the present moment something peculiar and extraordinary in the state of India to justify the strong appeals made to his grace from both aides of the House. The Earl of lusrvasat'SY, whose sympathies were all in favour of the motion, said that " feom in " formation he had received, he was led to be " lieve that this was the most inexpedient moment " for debating the subject, and that the resolu " tion, if carried, would tend to unsettle the " public mind in India, and be followed probably " with must disastrous results." The Earl of ELLEN sokuvott said " that from all he " had heard, from all he had read, " and from all the consideration he had " hetn able to give to the state of India at " this moment, he felt himself warranted in saying " that it was wost critical." Lord Hsaaia, late Governor of Madras, referring to his experience of India and the state of public feeling in that country, united in the request which had been made to the noldc duke ; and Earl GRAN VILLE added that, from the heat information be could gain, be was enabled contid, idly to say the motion could not be brought on at a more inopportune usoment. If these vague and solemn references point to mine danger of which the public out of doors has no certain knowledge, it is only right that the fact should be known ; if, on the other band, the language employed is only that of thoughtless exaggeration, its we is greatly to he regretted. Loan (;way'a Committee of Inquiry into the unfitness of the people to he entrusted with any further share in the nisei togenimit of their own gm! , bas COW to an end sooner than Will antici pated. The fear of trionii being over for the present session, the 'monocle of its opimnents ie.ereame their desire to accumulate accusations industry ; an d , having against those who live II) made pretty good Ilse of their time since the sp. pointment of the Committee, they hate resolved that it would he • bore to sit any longer, and so have closed the doors of the new political In quisition. Well has it deserved that name. Day alter day, slid week after week, it sat with closed doors to try men in their absence, virtually if not nominally, for the opinions they were sup posed to entertain. Its proceedings, like those THE EXPRESS, TI7FSDAir KVENING, JULY 3, ISM of the Holy Office, were not undertaken for the sake of oppressing individuals, but to deter and disfranchise whole sections of society. No semblance of fair arbitration founded on the pro tective principle of the jury--no admixture of men identified with the accused in habits, thoughts, or avocations, marked this Court of High Com mittee. It was conceived for the purpose of ob taining such a sentence against the mass of the hard-toiling and tax-paying community as would furnish an excuse for denying them the enjoyment of their inherent rights as loyal and intelligent citizens, thus securing to the class from which their irresponsible accusers and judges were ex clusively taken a renewed lease of their monopoly of power and pay. Great efforts were made to pack the Committee with tried and trusty acme. &arise, who would neither tire nor trim in the working out of the design. And luckily for the full elaboration of the scheme, this part of the plan of its benignant author wee in some degree frustrated in the very outset. Ministers, ashamed of baying complied with the motion for a Com• mittee which was avowedly meant to make out a cam against their competency end judgment, became soddenly .tiffnecked about the choice of indivi duals who should compose it ; and through some immaturity in the alliance between the anti-reforming Whigs and the anti reforming Tories, Lord °AZT was unable to secure the preponderance he desired amongst the persons chosen, though backed by Lord Deasy and his friends. And thus it came to pass that this curious and cunningly contrived machine, which was to be charged in secret with the deadliest elements, and whose timely explosion would, it was calculated, prove certainly fatal to the pre sent generation of Reformers, had in it from the commencement a flaw, which contributed to the disappointment and discomfiture of the projectors. So long, indeed, as the occasional appearance of a little dust in the distance justified the supposi tion that a Reform Bill was on its way through the Commons, their lordships of the Committee of Accusations were content to sit with closed doors for several hours together two or three times a week. The result of their sinister labours we shall see in due time. Probably, as matters now stand, there will be as little disposition to hasten its production as there was in the case of the correspondence respecting the Indian Army. To plain folks out of doors it seems a thing wholly in comprehensible how papers, of which Parliament and the public have a right to be put in possession within a few days after they are ordered to be printed, can be kept back by dint of undetectable and indescribable dodgery for weeks—nay, evenfor months together. But this is one of the cones quences of administration being always kept in the hands of the old set of right divine officials. Lord GRAY was as remarkable when in office as his relative Sir Ciciamoi WOOD for his dexterous tar diness in this respect ; and it is not likely that his right hand has yet forgotten its cunning. We may possibly have to wait, therefore, some time for the precious document. Meanwhile it is no secret that the Committee has dosed its in quiries without being able to agree to any recom mendations in the form of a report Reform is no longer on the Parliamentary road, so those who lie in wait for it have felt themselves free to take to differing among themselves as to what should have been done with it had it ever come up. The newel barrels, instead of going off with a grand cannonade, lie disjointed and out of position, only half loaded, and apparently deserted even by their worthy in ventor. There they may possibly remain till next Session, when another opportunity of mischief is certain to be afforded, it is to be hoped at a period of the year leas calculated to give rise to suspicions of mockery. But in the interests of humanity and public peace we must suggest that it is hardly fair. prudent, or consistent with decency, that this collection of missiles should be allowed to be kept for the purposes of ambush at some future period, when the world will have well nigh forgotten their existence. We want to me the evidence printed which Lords Our and Hum have with closed doors been collecting against the people. We hope there are some members of the Committee who will have the can dour to move forthwith that it be laid upon the table of the Pears, and then that it be placed without delay in Mr. HANSARD'S hands. If the people have not had the fairness of a trial, or the justice of an acquittal, the least that they can ask is the benefit of knowing what stories have been told in their disparagement and defamation. This much, at all events, they are entitled to, not at the option of Lord Daisy or the caprice of Lord Geer, when and how either or both of these accuser-judges may choose ; but as matter of common right and public equity, which must not and cannot be wholly trodden down by the aris tocratic heel of reaction. The public demand will not be satisfied in this matter by vague and evasive mutterings in high places,—that it was understood the evidence was to be printed, and that no doubt it will be in due time. We do not feel at all so sure of anything of the kind ; on the contrary, we think it will be•anything but superfluous to renew our call for its production until it be pro duced. And this we say now and say advisedly —let it be published fully as well as promptly, without garbling, asterisks, or blanks instead of names. We want to have the fullest opportunity of sifting the imputations, whatever they may have been, made behind backs, against the people ; and if there is any spirit of justice or fair play among their self-appointed judges, they will afford ample and immediate facilities for the refutation and exculpation hitherto nude impossible.

NAPLES. The Naples correspondent of the Prase, in letter of June 25, says that the proclamation of the constitution pleased nobody ; it was at oboe re gretted by the government as being a concession to the people, and by the people because its object is to maintain the government. The Count of Syracuse is reported to have said to a friend of the writer, "They would not give way when I advised them to do so, and now it is too late ; they will fall all the same."—" Only," said a diplomatist, who beard the remark, "they winnow fall out of a first door window instead of a second." The three members of the King's Council who voted against granting a constitution were M. Troya, who was Prime Minister at the time of King Ferdinand's death ; M. Scorza, Minister of Ecclesiastical Affairs ; and General Caracoaaa. The following is the text of the royal proclama tion placarded in Naples at au early hour on June 25 : ROVIRZIGN ACT. Desiring to give to our well-beloved subjects a testimonial of our sovereign good will, we have resolved to concede con stitutional and representative orders of the kingdom in harmony with national and Italian principles, in order to guarantee security and prosperity for the future, and to draw still closer the ties which tinite us to the peoples whom Providence has called us to govern. With this view we have come to the following deter minations: 1. We grant • general amnesty for all political offence• committed up to this day. 2. We have charged the Comminder Spinelli to form • new ministry, which will prepare, with the shortest possible delay, articles of • statute on the basis of Italian and national institutions. 3. An understanding will be come to with the King of Sardinia in the common interest of the two crowns in Italy. 4. Our flag will henceforth be ornamented (fregiatn) with the national Italian colours in three vertical bands, the arms of our dynasty being maintained in the centre. 5. With regard to Sicily, we grant analogous represent"• tive institutions of • nature to satiety the wants of the island, and • prince of our royal how will be the viceroy. Portici, June 26, 1860. nasals. NAPLES, Juir 2. The fundamental point of the programme of the Commander Spinelli is the formation of an Italian Confederation as recommended by the Emperor of the French. This Confederation to be essentially of a defensive character, and the autonomy of every state to be maintained, although national unity would be favoured. hap. be allowed to associate myself to the wishes so ele gantly expressed by my boo. friend, and to add a few plain words. No doubt the instinct of self-preservation urges governments se well as individuals to those resolutions which at a first glies• seem the most desperate. A drown ing man, hap of any other escape, will, in the agony of death, cling to Sad catch at any object within his reach. therefore, can well understand that the government of Naples, which up to this moment was always the most fierce and implacable foe to Italian nationality—that go vernment which, with the mod cowardly obetinacy. parse. cutest the generous men who aspired to that common object, should now all at once change its language, and put forth words of independence, patriotism, and nationality, seeking the protection and refuge of this government, sod suing, at least, for its moral support. Gentlemen, I have often seen men laden with the most hideous crimes, when brought before the court which is to try them, and unable to deny their offences, pot forward wards of compunction and re pentance. Each government, gentlemen, has its traditions, from which it cannot depart. We need no argument to be convinced of this truth. The traditions of 'the Neapolitan government are hereditary perjury. The new king, almost to prove the legitimacy of his descent, is preparing to perjure himself ; and, in order to qualify himself for the task of forswearing himself, he must fast swear. It is with that view that he declares himself ready to swear constitutions and alliances. His object in proposing an alliance with the king's government is obvious. He is only meditating the reconquest of Sicily. These are the old fox-like wiles of the Neapolitan government. As these have thrice availed them, they hope even now, from the same arta, to attain the same results. But, if these are very clearly the intentions of the government of Naples, there is also no doubt but the government of the king—of that king who for the Let 12 years has held aloft the banner of Italian na tionality, will never desert itspost, never will associate itself with a faith-breaking government, a government by the nature of its very institutions an implacable foe to Italian regeneration. I therefore trust that the king's ministers, following up that national Italian policy which they have so nobly pursued heretofore, will never press the hand of that government which has so long combated our independence, waging against um that secret subterranean war which is very often so much more injurious than an open war. As I am intimately convinced that the King's government will fulfil this sacred duty, a duty imposed upon them by all their foregoing policy and by the future of Italy, as a mem ber of this parliament, whereon rest the hopes of Italy, I de clare that I give my full assent to this bill, being certain that all the means entrusted to the government by the vote of the representatives of the nation will always be em ployed for the increase of the public prosperity and for the future welfare of Italy.

Granier de Cassagnac on "French Policy in Italy," from which, if it is to be considered semi-official, the satisfactory inference may be drawn that France —while looking coldly upon Italian unity, and strenuously protesting against any responsibility for Garibaldi's adventurous projects—still main tains the principle of non-intervention. If the re forms which France has long counselled the King of Naples to grant should now be realised, the object of France will be attained. France wants the "emancipation of Italy "—a thing which must not be confounded with Italian unity. The Pays reiterates the assurance that France will at any cost maintain the conquest of Lombardy for the benefit of Piedmont, but she is not prepared to go farther. The writer says that " all the rest is contingent and depends upon the courage, prudence, union, and moderation of the Italians. Possibly genius, foresight, and a spirit of justice may ultimately turn dreams into realities." These are very remarkable admissions from a writer who from his antecedents is above all suspicion of undue favour towards the Italian cause. He shows his old animus in the conclusion of his article, where he says that " as the moment must come when Count Cavour must make up his mind to resist utopias,' the sooner he begins the better." Nevertheless, I believe it to be certain that he will not begin by an alliance with Naples. At the Bourse the Rente opened rather firm in consequence, as it was said, of better uews from Naples, but later in the day it was rumoured that intelligence of a disquieting nature had been re ceived from that quarter, and the Reute, which had been quoted at 68fr. 55c. declined to 68fr. 45c., closing, nevertheless, with a rise from Saturday of 15c.

It is asserted that Baron Talleyrand has been in structed by his government to insist that Count Cavonr should give due consideration to the over tures of the King of Naples, and the more so, as these overtures were counselled by France. SICILY. GARIBALDI'S MOVEMENTS. Garibaldi appears to be steadily carrying out his plans for the unification of Italy. On the I,Bth the people of Sicily are to vote upon the plebiscite, which proposes immediate annexation to Piedmont. The general has ratified the contract for the pur chase of four large steam transports, which are to be delivered to his agents in the port of Genoa, and paid for in cash. These vessels will be immediately prepared for sea, as Garibaldi is most anxious to reach Naples before the pro posed constitutional reforms can be realised. The Count de San Cata/do, who has been sent on a wiaaion to Paris, was expected to return to Pa lermo shortly. On the 19th June, a vessel under the lonian flag arrived at Catania from Malta, bringing volunteers and arms. On the same day the Sardinian transport Moxambana arrived at Palermo from Naples with despatches from the Marquis de Villamarina, and returned with the answer iu the evening. A contract for establishing a regular postal service between Genoa, Leghorn, and the capital of Sicily, was signed on the 25th, and the boats will begin to run almost immediately. They will leave Genoa every Saturday, and Leg horn every Monday, and touch at Cagliari both going and returning. FRANCE. PARIS, TUEJWAT.

Thouvenel, and accedes beforehand to the decision of the majority. SARDINIA. POERIO ON THE AFFAIRS OF NAPLES.

No time will be lost to complete the roads, as intimation has already been given of an intention to cora -1 mence building operations forthwith. On the same day of allotment, four well-secured freehold ground-rents, on the Butter.ea estate, were offered and readily taken by holders of early rights of choice.
