Na LONDON, TUESDAY, JUNE IL Tne conduct of the resetionists in the House of Commons last night was a decided gain to the Liberal cause--to that enduring cause, we mean, which, be the fate of this Reform Bill what it may, is as sure to win in the long run as the sun to rise merit New Year's Day. The Frenchman who interpreted the inscription over the Royal Rzalange as " The land belongs to the Lord'" Was not more at fault than those gentlemen to the left or the right of the t3'e►sze who presume to imagine that by the law of political gravitation the future of England belongs to Toryism. Were we fanatics of a faith so fatuously opposed to reason as the laith in political retrogression, we should be a little discouraged by the exhibition of three zealots of the Tory pervasion, supposed to represent, if it represent anything, the party of order against the party of movement, getting up one after another to defy the rules of the House, and to set at nought the authority of the !intact& The other day we saw a mob of Conservative mem bers, to whom alone it is due that our institutions are not Americanized, obstructing the course of legislation bodily at the door of the House, and trying to watch a count-out by force of arms. Density of mind and dulness of speech were not sufficient, so breadth of shoulders was appealed to. When the arguments of the prize ring failed at the door, the morality of the turf was tried, and every form of " nobbling" was re sorted to in vain. Mr. lICHT, Mr. GRIFFITH, and Mr. Bawrixcit, illustrious " heavies" in the Tory foeivz d'unnie, rising in succession to move out of order, were such admi rable specimens of the zeal which TALLNY RAND appreciated, that we could almost find it in our hearts to regret that the Srzsxze was compelled by duty to snuff them incontinently out. It is well that the country should enjoy to the full the uninterrupted spectacle of Tory good faith, moderation, and self-respect. We cannot make too much of these instructive and encou raging examples. We are fain to regret that the tactics of evasion and delay, of:which the BAYARD.; of the Tory benches and their high-minded asso ciates in the opposite camp have made so much, are beginning to fail, and that all the coarser arts of cunning are exhausted. They will soon be reduced to silent voting, and we shall no longer feel .the inestimable privilege of hearing Tory bores talk against time and the Brains, and seeing Tory bullies barricade public business with their shoulders as well as with their skulls. On the other hand it may be said that if the ever dying British constitution is really to be saved, it must be by bringing to the surface that Tory virus which has been sapping its strength for years under the hectic flush of Liberal-Conservatism. The Quarterly &rim has done us good sorvice in compelling Mr. DIRMAILI to give up the light comedy of Liberalism and to assume once more the rothyriors as the leading tragedian of the party of re sistance. Who was it said that the day of parties was past Every day is restoring the ancient landmarks, and defining the old limits of opinion more and more sharply. Mr. Diszaitt, " notwithstanding," as he said, " the Quarterly " k.,w'," took the command of the gentlemen on his side of the House last night in a most unmiti gated Tory uniform. Lora JoRN Rciemt had conjured the Opposition to deal with the Bill openly and undieguisedly. Mr. Dories rose at to, the challenge, and with that histrinsie Noheinerice of which he is a muter, drew a picture of Europe in the throes of war and revo lution, and Great Britain in the pangs of a parlia mentary " dislication," with English members sitting under sentence of dismissal, and Irish and Scotch members unreformoiL He denounced the Itsionn Bill as destructive of Lord Jonx Emma's reputation, and of the safety and honour of Greet lirita'n, and, in a word, as Chaos. Not that the gentlemen on his side of the HOMO were averse to the admission of the working doom to the francluau ; but it must be in times km m enacing to Europe, and by means of a " corn " prebensive " measure. Fled not the Tories always been the best friends of the working c lasses, even as F RA N • I% 11. of N ap l es i s the beet friend of the Lizzarviii I Had they not provided baths and w:i•ithwiises, church es , an d schools? Had they not patted working men on the back on philanthropic platforms, extolled their loyalty, labour, and intelligence, at Institutes, enacted short hours for them in factories, and generally shown • disposition to see their humbler countrymen well soaped, well housed, and well buttered I But as for political reform : the working classes don't want it ; this is not the time to give it ; the present Bill is too little and too renegades in disguise, q rid of it. So what with the necessity of proving the Atel.‘the teigh command, the wounded vanity of stittiorship, as' the concoctor of last year's Bill, Mr. D►szazu fairly burnt his ships last night, and told the Liberals in almost as many I • words that as the Tories looked to war to save them from Reform, the Liberals must I wait for a period of disturbance and distress to carry a comprehensive Bill. Mr. DISRATIA latest utterances may be accepted as the most powerful and perfect expression—the concentrated 011101106 — of Tory sentiment and opinion on the subject of Reform. And this is what all the prophetic declamation and the ambiguous sarcasm clearly teach. That the Tories desire war as a diver sion ; that they love the " lower orders," but dis trust and fear them ; that no Reform is worth having if it be moderate, and that no comprehensive Reform can be expected in quiet times. These are not, we confess, reassuring or comfortable doc trines ; but they are not our,. After Mr. Dumont's unadulterated confession of Toryism, what need we say of the amiable valetudinarian twaddle of that venerable petit maitre of rose-water liberalism—the member for Rye ? We should be very sorry to speak with imperfect sympathy of so eminent a social Reformer as the great churchyard abo litionist and abater of smoke. We accept him as a finished illustration of that public usefulness and superior intelligence which only the smallest boroughs supply. He is known to be a "friend " of the working classes," not in theory only, but in committees, though politically he talks of them as of a foreign nation, or other strange and un familiar order of beings ; as though " having " intercourse with the lower classes" were an experience in the life of a public man akin to going down the shaft of a coal mine. This excellent gentleman, it seems, has had two ideas in his public life-time. We are not now speaking of the works which Mr. Don assures us he has published, but of his ideas in Parliament. One of these is borrowed from France : it is the Conseil. de Prud'hommes, to decide disputes between masters and workmen ; and it was as chairman of a committee for collecting evidence for this purpose that he has " had considerable inter " course with the working classes." Accordingly he is in with a member of the " Central "Committee of the National Association of Trades " in London," and he is able to cite the rird rote opinions of Mr. °mows Porn,- The former writes that his friends are indifferent to the Bill, because it does not include the moat "thoughtful" among them ; the latter states that he can indirectly control six hundred thousand men. The former shows, therefore, that the Bill ' does nothing for the working classes • the latter, thit it makes them all-powerful for mischief. These are the fruits of Mr. MACKINNON'S " could " &rale intercourse with the working dames." But Mr. MACKINNON hes had another idea in his life • and to this, as to his fi rst love, he returns site an absence of nearly thirty years. In 1831, he tells ne, he introduced a motion to the House in precisely similar terms to the motion he introduced last night. The mo tion on both occasions embodied the idea that a Reform Bill should be postponed until after the results of the Census were known. Sir Gannon Lewis disposed of this ides by asking how the relative position of boroughs liable to disfranchisement could be affected by a number ing of the nation, and by offering the Rnorsrasis- G 's opinion, that the Census was more likely to be fairly taken after a Reform Bill than before. The Horn SECRETARY probably hit the nail on the head when he mentioned casually that as the results of the Census could not be ascertained before the acne of the summer of 1861, a Reform Bill on the basis of the Census must be put off till 1863. But Mr. MACKINNON labours under an aged fondness for this bright idea of his golden prime when he made his maiden speech ; and he seems, like M. Moms; to be possessed by a sort of physiological theory that Reform is nnc me hide, and must only be approached after a Census. Now really with aft our respect ' for Mr. Macs mum( we cannot help remarking that the House of Commons has something better to do than tokratify these twittering souvenirs of early loves and conquests. It has to follow Lord Joni/ ReasELL's earnest and statesman- like advice ; to go into consideration of this Bill without attempting to conceal or evade its importance, without impairing the people's trust in the sincerity of Parliament, or their respect for its decisions. For when the war (which Tories seem to pray for) cornea, to whom will they look to man the armies and the fleets, to build the ships and cast the guns, if not to the people whom in peace-time they are treating as a dangerous class I much ; the House is full . f who will be delighted to gel 11111.11.11.1.1 NerzoirAz SUNDAY LEAGUE.

THE ARMISTICE BROKEN. ---- - We read is the Paris Patric : We knee mat miens nevi from Italy. The snuggle at Palermo recommend yesterday. The reason currently given far this event is the noweatilleation by the Neapoli tan government of the capitulation agreed upon between General Inane and Garibaldi. Another venion, which we ' mention with all reserve, is that the parties could not agree upon several important points, and particularly as to the claim of the Neapolitan general to retire with arms and legpge either to Naples or Messina. In this state of thinip, the armistice expired without the capitulation having been signed. Whatever may be the truth in other respect.—and we most soon know—there is no doubt that fighting has recommenced, audio being carried on with equal energy co both sides. Garibaldi's volunteers, aided by the people, were constructing barricades in the centre of the town to prevent the Neapolitan corps in the southern aids from effecting a junction with the troops which occupy the strong places on the sea-coast. The assaflante (query— which are the asaailants?), whole number is considerably increased, are very united. The steam frigates Parthenope and Amalfi, of the royal Neapolitan navy, were crossing their fire with that of the sea forte. The following short note appear, in the Pays : Two ikepatches have arrived hem Naphs today which, theegh at first sight contradictory, do in fact explain each other. According to the first, General Lanes de manded that his army should retire with arms and baggage and its colours in front. Garibaldi, on the other hand, offered to render the fullest homage to the courage die. played by the royal troops, but he insisted upon the acres city laid upon him to procure arms and ammunition at any i price, es a reason for refusing to accept the capitulation en the terms offered by General Lawn. The second despatch announces that the capitulation has been refused by the express order of the King of Naples. In consequence, at the expiration of the armistice, the bombardment mean mewed. The despatch adds that the firing was very sharp and that the barracks were encumbered with wounded. It is said that there are 4,000,000 of acudi in the treasury at Palermo, and it is certain that there are in the forte arms and stores to equip all the youth of Sicily, and guns to make the harbour an uncomfortable anchorage for Neapolitan ships of war. It was supposed for a moment at Turin that Austria had moved down a body of 15,000 troops to create a diversion, or even to punish Piedmont for her connivance iu this Sicilian expedition. Such consistency did the rumour obtain that French regiments were marched to the point indi cated. Their appearance called out the Austrians, and the two rival uniforms stood once more for a moment face to face. Francis IL next applied to the Emperor of the French for an armed mediation. The telegraphic message found the Emperor at Lyon; and we (Times) are assured that it received an instant reply, to the effect that any interference of France in this conflict was entirely out of the question. It appears that General Lanza, on taking the chief command, completely modified the system adopted by his predecessor, who was accustomed to . prevent assemblages from being formed in the streets, by causing strong patrols to parade con stantly, and compel all persons whom they met to go home. As these measures prevented the population from concerting together, they rendered the organisation of the in surrection difficult ; but they fatigued the troops and exasperated the inhabitants. General Lanza, on the contrary, ooncentrated in three strategical positions strong columns, which, in case of aggression, were directed to act in concert, and whatever might happen to main lain their communication with the forts facing the sea, and which form the basis of opera tions of the Neapolitan troops. The inha- bitants, however entered into communication with envoys secretly sent by Garibaldi, and the agreement was come to that he should arrive in the evening of the 26th in sight of the town, and that they should revolt the next day. To organise the rising, the chiefs assembled in King Roger's chapel—a splendid edifice con structed in 1129, and which, at this period of the year, is visited as a place of pilgrimage by nume rous inhabitants of the country, to whom the memory of that sovereign is still dear. On Sun day, the 27th, Whitsunday, crowds assembled in the streets to the cries of " Viva la liberta ! " " Viva it Re Vittore Emmanuel° !" and in a few minutes the insurrection assumed a menuing aspect. Never was a movement more unanimous. The troops opened fire, and a terrible combat took place. Garibaldi on horseback, surrounded by his volun- tears and preceded by the flag of independence, arrived in the midst of the conflict, and was re ceived with enthusiasm. He at once took the di rection of the revolt, and displayed the greatest vigour. The troops and insurgents fought with equal courage. Eventually the troops not being able to maintain their position retired to the forts, determined to defend them to the last ex tremity. Garibaldi, not wishing to lose time, attacked on the 28th with all his troops the citadel, which is considered the principal defence of the town, and is in communication with the sea. The volunteers displayed the greatest bravery, the troops kept up a vigorous fire, and it is stated that after a conflict of five hours the foreign con suls, at the demand of the inhabitants, interposed, and caused the two parties to accept an armistice to Sunday, the 3rd June, at noon. This truce would give time to bury the dead, to remove the wounded to three villas in the suburbs, which had been transformed into temporary hospitals, and to send away the women and children. At the last dates it is stated that a great number of Sicilian volunteers had entered the town and placed them selves under the orders of Garibaldi JOURNAL OF OPERATIONS.

(nor on (my COMIPO1gD1211%) NAPLES, MAY 29. Last night we had a demonstration, which was got up in consequence of news from Palermo. The crowds assembled in the Caffif Europa and the To ledo appeared to be in great agitation, and scarcely able to keep themselves from boiling over. About 200 persona, all gentlemen, went from the card up the Toledo shouting, " Viva Garibaldi ! Viva Sicilia !—Viva Phalle !" The officers of Hussars and of Marine, who were in front of the palace, ran in that direction, and, drawing Weir swords, followed the crowd to the street of Santa Brigida. Here there was a conflict ; one of the officers had his head broken by a stick, whilst another cut a youth through the shoulder and carried him off to the prefec ture. The crowd separated immed lately after they had uttered the cries. A tricoloured flag was taken into the Caffd Europa, which was taken possession of by the proprietor, and burnt as a precaution : but in the course of the evening both he and his waiters were arrested, and they say 25 persons in the caffd. Thus, you will perceive, we are going on charmingly. Whilst Palermo is being bombarded, the only thought of government here is, as it has been for many years, to defend its divine rights—to trample on and destroy the people. Guardsmen act as sbirri, and almost the ' only sights witnessed are the transport of cannon and powder through the streets, and the strengthening the fortifications. One other sight, however, I have just witnessed, which tells a tale of misery such as seldom meets the eye or ear. I drove down to the Mole, which is close to the arsenal ; it was strewed with furniture in every direction, beds, tables, chairs, &c., and men were unlading one or two sailing vessels which had just come in from Palermo. Seated here and there on their boxes were many Sicilian women, watching the unlading. Some were silent, as if afraid to speak—others appeared half distracted. They had left Palermo on Sunday morning, pro bably at the very height of the bombardment. And so begins the second year of the reign of the young king " Bombardino." What a promise of happiness to his country, if he lives a lung life and holds his throne ! There is the same exodus from Messina and Syracuse. THE PAPAL STATES. (szursit's TILZGLUL ROME, Juin I The Commendatore Martino, the Neapolitan minister at the court of the Holy See, left yesterday evening for Naples, having been summoned thither by the King. The ambassador, before taking his departure, had a long conference with the Pope. Rome is tranquil, but the inhabitants are agitated by the grave news from Palermo. Strong patrols traversed the town yesterday evening. His Holiness is said to have expressed his opinion that the Emperor Napoleon and the King of Sar dinia bad resolved upon the execution of the pro gramme contained in the pamphlet " Le Pape et le Congas." Signor Castellani, the Rommi patriot, has been exiled. FRANCE. The Monittur of to-day contains a bulletin stating that the improvement in Prince Jerome's health continues. SPAIN. MADRID, JUNI 4.

Some commercial howls, of Marseilles are said to have reoeived fresh news by a supplementary mail from Hong Kong to the 2bth April, according to which it was rumoured that the ultimatum had not been absolutely rejected, and that the Pleni potentiaries had remitted a second ultimatuir, modified in its stipulations, to which they were going to await the answer of the Chinese court. EXPRESS FROM PARIS. (most OUR owx PARIS, MONDAY &KITING. The Monitour is again silent about the position of Garibaldi, news of which is looked for with more intense interest than ever. General Bazaine's division, consisting of the 33rd and 34th regiments (Brigadier-general Hardy), and the 37th and 38th (Brigadier-general Dumont), will be reviewed by the Emperor to-morrow in the Place du CarrouseL The regiments will march separately from their quarters to the reviewing ground, the project of a triumphal entry into Paris having been abandoned, for reasons of which I have no certain knowledge. There is a rumour ' that the people of the Faubourg St. Antoine meant to have saluted this rear-guard of the army of Italy with cries of "Five Garibaldi !" which would have grated harshly upon imperial ears. The court goes to Fontainebleau to-morrow. This day is the anniversary of the battle of Magenta. Several regiments now in Paris, who took part in that engagement, have celebrated the occasion by a banquet in their barracks. A funeral service to the memory of General Espinasse was performed in the Trinity Church, Rue de Clichy. The Bourse- opened with much animation, and, although the business done in the course of the day was not law, the Rente closed, with a rise of 45c. for cash and 40c. for account, at 70fr. 10c. and 701 r. 15c. The Patrie, a government journal, attributes the rise exclusively to the necessity in which many speculators were placed to deliver stock, and to the anticipation of the dividend on Thursday. Mobilier row 10fr. The Orleans Rail way rose 7fr. 50c., Lyons Ofr. 25c., and the other lines from 2fr. 50c. to 3fr. 76c. Credit Fonder fell sfr. The Moniteur publishes in extent° the argument used by M. Dupin, iu obedience to orders from the Minister of Justice, to afford the Court of Caseation an excuse for laying down the law that any relation of any dead man has a right to pro. mute all and singular the person or persons who may say or write anything disparaging to the memory of the deceased. It has been suggested that the present generation of French statesmen think it desirable to got up a sort of mutual u surance against the liberties which history may one day take with their names. But the Cearrier de Paris treats this idea as an odious calumny, for it says : No men of any epoch whatever have lees to fair from the judgment of posterity than the men of the present day. Are they not all just, loyal, and honest; always consistent in their opinions ; ever faithful to the oaths they have Inc. cessively taken ; sad above all things it not their disin terestedness above suspicion? Of such saints, of such illus trims patriots wha t evil can history ever say _ . Apropos of this subject, I observe that most of the London journals assume that the Bishop of Orleans is to be tried again for his libel on the dead Bishop Rousseau. This is a mistake. The 'appeal was made ex officio "in the interest of the law," and the prosecutrix being no party to it there is an end of the case. M. Horn's pamphlet on Hungary, the publica tion of which was suspended by order, has been allowed to come out to-day. A Turin letter states that the Emperor of Aus tria, in reply to the King of Naples' demand for assistance, said that he should long ago have oome to the aid of his faithful ally, "bad it not been for the veto of the Tuileries." If this news is true, I give the French Emperor credit for it. LAM INTELLIGENCE. (THIS DAY.) EQUITY COURT. (Before Vice-Chasieellor Sir John Stuart.) NOTTIDOI V. PEINOZ.—TIig AGAVEMONE. Mr. Malian, Q.C. (with him Mr. Wigram) to-day con. tinned his argument in this remarkable case, of which a report appeared in out impression of yesterday. The suit was tiled seeking to set a aside a transfer of astun of 5,7281. 7s. 7d. New Three per Cent. Annuities to Mr. Prince, made by the late Louisa Jane Nottidge, who died at the establishment called the Agapemone, near Bridgewater, in 1858, having resided there for a period of rather more than tea years. The plaintiffs allege that at the time Miss Nottidge made the transfer she was undeithe spiritual influence of Mr. Prince, and laboured under the delusion this he was God Almighty, or that the Spirit of God dwelt in him, his own spirit being extinct. Mr. Dwelt, Q.C., and Mr. Swale are for the defendant. Mr. Malin had not concluded his argument when our report left. The case will probably be proceedtd with after the motions to-morrow. COURT OF EXCHEQUE R . Ming' in Banco.—(Beiore the lard Chief Baron and Barons Bramwell and Channell.) BKATSON NICENE. —GIifIULAL BILATSCIteII CAME.. . . • The Lord Chief Baron said the court had fully considered all the point, urged by the learned counsel for the plaintiff for permission to appeal from the judgment delivered on Saturday refusing the rule for a new trial. Some of the point, urged were not founded on fact, us shown by the evidence. Where a confidential communication had taken piece, and the party at a subsequent period made a state ment purely voluntary to the same party, and relative to the lame subject, it wee just as much privileged as the original communication. It had been contended for the plaintiff that such communication ought to have been withdrawn from the consideration of the The court was of opinion this could not have been done,for it was just the point for a jury to decide. There could not be anyappeal from the verdict of the jury, nor, indeed, from the judgment of this court, whether the ve rdict was in conformity with the evidence. The court was of opinion that there were no grounds for an appeal, and it would be an improper exercise of their dis cretion to grant an appeal where they entertained no doubt whatever on the question. Application refused. COURT OF COMMON PLEAS. Satiny to i3SOoo.—(Before Lord Chief Justice Erie and Justioes Williams sod Byles.) TIM =AMY DOOR AND HARBOUR 80 - ARD r. JONES AND OTIMUL-IMPORTANT lIATLNO CAB& This ease ;CsTrapTel the whole of was con cluded this morning. The question rained was whether the Liverpool docks, craves, wharves , &c. (ex clusive of warehouses and dwelling-houses), were liable to be rated to the poor; and the importance of the question in dispute was shown by the fact that the sum claimed from the plaintiffs for their contribution to the particular individual rate now in question was no less than 20,5401. Sir F. Belly, Mr. Parker, and Mr. Quain ared for the plaintiffs; and Mr. Bovill and Mr. M ellish pea for the defendants. . . The Court, without hearing Sir F. Kelly in reply, said that the principal question, apart from certain authori ties, waa whether these docks were used for public pur poses. Mr. Bevil] said "No " become only that portion of the public who invested the i r capital in ships used them ; but the same might be said of a highway for carriages, o r It was only that portion of the public whkh invested capital in hence and carriages that used it. In the one case, like the other, ell persona had the right of use ; and if a great public harbour like this were to be sated they did not know bow it could be said that the owner of the sailor a highway was not liable to be sated, for the benefit which the public , received. It was said the distinction was this—that the ' frequenters of this great public harbour paid dues for wing' it ; but this was analogous to the one of a turnpike road which the public paid for the woe of. It had been long ago decided that the soil of a turnpike-road was not ratuble en the ground that it was devoted to the public use, and they could not see the differ ence between that and • public harbour, which any man might enter with his ship. Upon this ground they were bound to say that the case of "King v. the Liver pool Docks," was rightly decided ; but at the same time their judgment must be based upon the ground al the incompetence of this court to review solemn decisions of the Queen's Bench with all the circumstances before them, especially as several acts of parliament bad treated those cases as law, in this particular instance at all events. Judgment for the plaintiffs. COURT OF BANKRUPTCY. (Before Mr. Commissioner Fano.) IN 111 JOHNSON AND OILMAN.—LARDS FALAI:RI IN THE !MOH TRADE..

The liabi li ties are considerable. A short time p revious to the bankruptcy, a fire occurred on the pre mises in Red Croerstreet, by which a large quantity of stock and the whole of the books of the firm were destroyed. Messrs.

Mr. Bell is the official assignee ; and Marrs. Linklater and Rockwood are the solicitors under the bankruptcy. The gravity of the proceedings was at one moment inter rupted by the appearance of a creditor in a blue smock frock, who tendered a proof or a claim for 70., stated to be due to " Thomas Taylor, 5, Harmony Cottages, Ford-road, Bow," for one week's eat's-meat. The amount was at once mid, without troubling the creditor to make oath of his debt. On the application of Kr.
