A late edition of the &press in published every sersaiag during the racing 2611110 U, containing the results of the day's races. Tan unfinished debate on the Irremovable Poor BM will be resumed to-day ; and another effort will probably be made to defeat this long delayed measure of justice and humanity by talking against time. The owners of " close perishes " and of extra-parochial property feel that it is now or never with them ; and some of them at least are not ashamed to use the power and opportu nity they passer as members of the Legislature to defend their private interests at the met of the unrepresented poor. It is always invidious to single out individuah, or to point to them by win, in discussions of this kind ; and if forbear awes does not hazard the lees of a too long de ferred measure of relief, it is better it should be observed. There are limits, however, to public patience which must sot be overpeased; and in all fairnms and candour we must say that honour- able gentlemen who notoriously would profit by the rejection of this Bill, would in our opinion act wisely by abstaining from pro minent or pertinasiovs opposition to it. The House of Commons hie already decided that throe years ought to lo ottbaittit;d for firs as the Period of residence that is to give a working loan a right to irremovability when he is compelled to week for publics sibs,- Other ram of the Bil of subordinate importance hoes likewise bssa 'firmed in tionniften The solo quadrat that remains is that of ehmesshility l sal the ale point which has net boss pialleilby the apologists of veined wrap is whether the pedienlar parish in which the per min nor law Moos sick or cared to be empleyei shall be charged with the exclusive burthen of his support after these yams' resideuce, or whether that burthen shwa be diffused over all the parishes within the rules I In other words, the matter to he decided is whether the proprietor of one parsebird corner of a Union shall not only be permitted to deer his property of labourers, and his NW, of cottages, but whether he shall be empowered by law to throw the exclusive obligation of sup porting those whom he has thus thrust out, upon his neighbours on the other aide of the parochial boundary I It is for tide that certain country gentlemen in Parliament think ft decent to COIF tend ; and it is thin whisk every right-minded man in the community, be bs squire or nibs's, noble man or trader, must wish to break down. As an illustration of the intolerable lordships which the hard toning mid deserving am is subject to wader the existing law, it meg set be swpselluom to quote pent of a letter addreserd Mr. Dort.; me of the Poor4aw Impaton, to Ii?. IVWATID MOO IMO es% sled read by him in the course of &speech wlink he deliveredin the Home of Osumens, when movlog kw a am mitts* of inquiry into the stablest " lost year I wee imetritetad to km** tots " the circumstance eennected with the removal et " a man with a family of young anise hem a " aim in Lancashire to a anise is Nee* Wsls's. " He bad been ha the receipt of good wages, " saws no. a weak, to the mai in tibia he , " wee on the eve of oomphiling his five yews' " resideme. Prom some eases his employment " soddenly emend, and be was compened to apply " for relief. The relief was at sass wonted, and " when soospted, an order of removal woo taken' " out. In the meantime the Ems spin get work " sad was busy at his laborer, earning the saws " wages as before, when he was literally forced " away, removed to We pariah, a place he did " not even know, where he was utterly friendlies, " and where he bed as little eau, c 4 lading The "Ircuiim imp/orient to which be was mom - tinned as if be had been east on a desert island. " One of the witnesses in the course of the in " quiry happening to remark, speaking of this man, "' He was more like a madman than anything " ' else,' he suddenly broke out, in unoontrollable " passion ; Yes, and lam more like a insdisan then " ' anything else ; it is enough to drive me mad " ' to be dragged here with my family as I have " been.' I turned to the overseer of the re " moving parish, who was present, and asked, " ' What induced you to remove this man under " such circumstances I'—' To prevent him from " ' completing his five years, air.' It would be " easy to multiply cases of this sort to show that " one grievous effect of the Poor Removal Act "is to stimulate officio', guardiaos o and rats " payers to have recourse to every mesas in their " power to induct those who are liable to become " chargeable to break their residence.' " The only doubt which the contemplation of such practical injustice, mischief, and folly sumpiste to one's mind is, whether one year ought not to be the qualifying term of residence instead of three, as proposed in the present remedial Bill 161. Hussar on Thursday night impaired the offset of a speech abounding in good sense, and I laid himself open to retort, by some ill-directed censures on the attempt of educational theorists to, give a knowledge of the principles of common things a place in the teaching of our popular schools. It is very easy to make simple truths ridiculous by fixing on than top-heavy Greek or Latin designations, easy to raise a laugh by calling plain &dries about drains, sanitary science, or a lemon on wages political economy; and this Mr. limrszy did. lie was ammesred by Mr. Lows that this knowledge was useful. Ths answer is true as far as it goes. And yet at bottom Mr. HINLIT, in complaining that the practical part of educations at present sacrificed, was too surely in this right. The Frefic.h have a proverb which de clares the better to be the worst enemy of the good. Our doctors in education would make philo sophers, moralists, almost statesmen, of children who are not taught to read. It will be our duty to iterate and reiterate the astounding statements of the Commissioner, until public attention is fixed on the naked fact contained in their report, that " the junior dames of schools, comprehend ing the majority of children, do not learn, or " learn imperfectly, the most necessary part of " that which they come to learn—reading, writing, " and arithmetic." The money vent in training teachers has not been thrown away—far from it ; we have educated them, and that is a great deal. Indeed much of the popularity which the aye. stem adunididered by the Committee of Council has obtained may perhaps be accounted for by the fact that it includes a kind of university, at which the aspiring youth of the lower middle clams may, first as pupil teachers and then at a training college, obtain a good education available for any calling they may subsequently embrace. But oertainly the main end of that system, the education of the children of the poor, has not been attained. The Commissioner, say of the trained teachers that their report of them must be in every respect but one positively good. That exception, however, they admit, is a "moat important one." And what is it 1 It is that they do not teach the children " the most necessary part of what they " come to learn." We spec with the Edin burgh Review, that "it is impossible to carry " bathos further. This vast expenditure, this huge " machinery, this office of state, this array of tun ' " miners and inspectors, and this elaborate re- ' 44 port of • Royal Commission, ends with the ad " mission that everything is most perfect, except " that the majority of children do not learn, or " learn imperfectly, the rudiments of human " knowledge which we profess to teach them." How is it possible to explain this neglect of the first and most essential objects of primary eduostion The men who institute, maintain, and overlook these inspected schools themselves belong to the educated classes i • they are earnest, especially the clergy, even to th e extent of making severe sacrifices in the canes. The Government Inspectors of course know what is being done and what is neglected. Whines, then, this failere f As far as the teachers are concerned, the Oominiesioners state that it is attributable, not to defect of power, but to want of motive. Of 'eerie a:teacher who, on his exa mination as a Cabbies **oar, has proved his ability to "gig th• • terms of the Secret Treaty "of 1670,". to "oc:scribe the chief points of " difference between the lo Prayer -book of " EDWARD VI. and that now in ass ;" to "give " some amount of the minority of RICRARD 11. ;" who, in short, has demonstrated the power of bringing forth any quantity of similarly recondite knowledge on demand—of course 'such a teacher Asa teeth a child to spell little words ; but he is not very likely to do so if he can help it. Ma will be far more at hone among the intelli gent sad aelivemimisd boys of the upper class, with whom he elm mercies his own mind as well as theirs. Mr. Lowe's new minute will probably do more or Ism to stimulate the teacher, by making it his interest that all the children shall learn to read, write, and cipher, and so far abate the evil. Butwhat have the managers of inspected schools been about, to suffer the shortcomings now ex posed t We behove that if the truth were told they have been misled by a false reliance on the nmehinery provided by Government as a se curity for the efficient instruction of the children in the obvious elements of education. They have trusted too much to certificates, and examinations, and inspections, in all that relates to the more mechanical parts of kerning. The Govern ment has ruined for them the private teacher, who often, in an ill-ventilated upper-room and with home-spun methods, beat the certificated teacher in tocsin eat good nadirs, writers, and cipherers, lint who was unable to seespete in price with manias= aided out of the public purse ; and one of the natural effect* of monopoly has followed. Managers have often plenty else to do besides looking after the pro gress of the junior chines in words of three syl kebbr and it must be said that in many mess a habit of quietly assuming that the elementary teashlog will go on automatically, and thereupon giving their whole attention to develop some ipseiel feature in the imilmotion, has told most detrinientelly on the emcees of many school& Nobody would be surprised to Isom that the junior classes in that school where, ea the Baefidi Oherchosess tells w, the children learn the Thirty. nine Artisans by beset, are deficient in their cipher ing. And Muteness of misconception of the duties whisk school semegers owe to the parents, to the itenand to the State are only too common. !the school is regarded as a net, or a foilf‘'er a border fortress, spelling and the Multip li cation table are likely to be neglected. Of emu , it will be said that the highest vim of education Must be to raise the general character of the 'children both morally and intellectually, and that this is the proper care of the managers. That is quite true, so true that it is the chief if not the sole justification of asystemof state aidand , state supervision of education, which wlght be left to the law of supply and demand if it ocimisted merely in imparting the marketable capacities of reading, writing, and arithmetic. But it is in vain to talk of the high moral aims of managers who do not fulfil their contract with a parent, and squally vain to look for higher results of education in children who on leaving school "forget every " thing they have been taught there," se the Com missioners tell us is now the case with "three-fourths" of the scholars. We see hers some of the defects inseparable from a system of education devised and administered by one elms on behalf of another. Reading, writing, and arithmetic thoroughly taught form an education of themselves. The child to whom those have been made easy enters on a progressive intellectual course, and carries away from school the faculty of a continuous development. If this truth is trite and obvious, how absurd, how wrong it is to satoillea, either through neglect, or for the lake of instionting something to be forgotten as soon as learnt, a power which would enable the child to carry on the work of its education throughout life. Now that the Coanniniessrs have called atten • tian to the realities of our present system it will be seen by the result whether that system is main tained for the sake of the children of the poor or for other objects. - Teeerr Lomat, es nu TABASIIIIT.— We Live Ile het tarebarily ter *Aft eel ear excellent meaty vepreemnaliee bum* eseepeed the yeare Lateltip al the Trainer, et the dhgetelellhe ptiolimok Kamm , Ode Wed bete ben flebedelles ter eseeeei de" sad althea.% the pee* et Weer wadi wider at Mr. Ore east =et tr e ts la M.' the et pedha We lees .es balsams bllseikels Amid be &mire Add i = soesl, le TeR pea • Whise pest thee e junior et the Tsimem.—itelleay Tiediester.

The Pays, which, as the Chariteri has frequently remarked of late, always advertises beforehand any article of M. Paulin Limayrac, gave out last night that he was about to publish a leader headed "A Crime," and curiosity was excited to • great extent, because it was supposed that the government writer would tell us the latest news about Baron de Vida, and ex plain all that is doubtful in the law of extradi tion. The article has appeared, and is altogether a take in. It contains no word of information, and is made up of laughably commonplace reflections and absurdly false strictures upon English news papers and English laws and customs. After the profound remark that "if the crime has really been perpetrated, it is abominable," the Pays says that certain articles in the English press betray a " secret pleasure " at the fact of the accused being a foreigner. This pleasure must be very "secret" indeed, for I have read everything published in England on the subject without finding any trace of it. M. Limayrao then, proceeding further to slay the giant of his own creation, affirms that all along of the law of "primogeniture" murders from interested motives are much more common in England than in France, and he cites to warranty Bulwer's and Dickens's ro mances. Now this is a very bad shot, indeed. Let the law of °atoll bear its own sins, but assu redly that of holding out a temptation to fathers to murder their sons is not one of them. In most cases the murder of the next heir would istlyer send the inheritance to a remoter one than make it revert to the father. If the state of the law is to be introduced into the argument, that of France, accord big to M. Limayrac's reasoning, is much more pro vocative of murder than that of England. For the trustee system, unknown in France,. generally pre vents the possibility of a father or father-in-law ob taining possession of his son's separate ken.* whereas in France he may make ducks and drakes of it, subject only to the liability toreador amounts when the young man comes of age. The rumours in circulation regarding M. de St. Georges, the director of the imperial printing office, receive a certain amount of confirmation from the fact that ft Anseime Petetin, late pre fect of Savoy, has been gaietiod to his place. It L probably true that M. de Bt.

A letter from Baden, dated Sunday, in the Debab of to-day says :—"This morning, between 9 and 10 o'clock, at the moment when the King of Prussia, after his customary walk in the Lichtenthal Avenue, was seated near the stone fountain, a student of Leipeic approached him, and, levelling a pistol at his breast, pulled the trigger. The force of the charge happily mused the bullet to rise, and the ball only tore the dress and slightly grazed the King's shoulder. Arrested on the spot by the promenaders who heard the re port, the Nemesia was taken before the chief magis trate of the city, and was examined in the pregame of his August Highness the Grand Duke of Baden. It is stated that the student confined himself to the reply, while avowing his crime, that his only object was to free Germany from a prince who was not sufficiently active in the cause of German unity. The population of Baden, where his Majesty is regarded with respect and veneration, heard of the event with a horror which will be shared by all the world. The report runs that the Leipaic student is the son of a Russian Consul in a city on the Black Sea. Others say that he is of Lithuanian origin." r, JULY IL Advices received here from Baden-Baden explain the motives which Mitigated Becker to attempt the assassination of the King of Prussia. He esteems the King of Prussia personally, but does not con sider him competent to deal with the German question. A letter to this effect was found on Becker when he was arrested.

Tall GOYIM/MINT AND Till HOCIII Or LORDS. —However welcome to the Hoes, of Lords may be the secession of Lord John Russell, the House of Commons, we apprehend, will ontamplate it with very little satisfac tion. While the House of Lords does but one-twentieth pat of the business of the House of Commons, it boasts a lion's share of the present administnition. Three out of our five secretaries of state, the Chancellor, the First Lord of the Admiralty, the Lord President of the Council, the Postmaater-Geoeral, the Lord Privy Seal, all hold eats in the Upper Hour, while the Home Secretary, and the Secretary for lodic, the First Lord of the Treasury, the Chancellor of the Exchequer, the President of the Board of Trade, the President of the Poor Law Board, the Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster, and the Secretary for Ireland hold seats in the House of Commons. Lord John Russell goes to give more to that which had already far too much. At the present moment the two ministers whose united departments distribute between twenty sad thirty millions of the national revenue sit in the house which does not represent the people. In voting the Army and Navy Estimates the House of Commons received this year from the under secretaries that information which they ought to have from the beet and wet authen tic source. To these is now added the all-im portant department of Foreign Affairs, so that, if things remain as they are, the represeetatives of the people must be content to feed on second-hand informa tion. We can hardly imagine that this state of things will be allowed to continue, and no doubt the promotion of Lord John Russell to the House of Lords will be succeeded by important changes. Unhappily, this is not the only change that welters to expect. Tt* continued indisposition of Lord Herbert, which has already rendered necessary his temporary absence from this country, will, we apprehend, before long oblige him to resign the seals of the war de partment. We can only bops that in filling up this vs caocy some regard may be paid to the disproportion to which we have pointed above, and that the Home of Com• mow may recover what it can scarcely be said now to pos• sees—the direct control over this portion of the expendi• tare.—Tina. A GIALL&N T Acr.—.A letter from the Pyrenees gives en account of an eat of courage and presence of mind which is worthy of mention. Captain Tordeur, of the staff, and . M. de Sainte.fledne, a cavalry o ffi cer, had effected the Crw of ent the peak of llsucapera, near Bariges. were deseeadiag into the Talley of St. Ssureur by an ezceeeively steep slope, cut into deep escarpments. M. de Sainte-Seine was aboutsoyards in advance of his companies, when the latter suddenly found the ground give way under him, and he wu precipitated forward with frightful rapidity. He gave a cry for assistance, and B. de Sainte-Seine, seeing the areatams of the danger, and at the risk of being himself &ince to the bottom of the precipice, threw hum self in tie way ci his companion. Both were knocked down by the violence of the shock, and were rolling together down the 4sup. when fortunately M. de Sainte-Seise was able to stick 4u five-shod pole into the ground, and step their farther descent just as they had reached the edge of a deep preci 'es over which the} , must have been dished to piece'. --G • • The American steamer Adriatic, now belonging to the Galway Company, arrived at the Southampton Data yesterday. ! , l da th II
