Tee France of nor ley is certainly not a land of fanatics or of It fists, and this is why we take the liberty to suppose that to the vast ma jority of our shrewd sad sensible neighbours over the water the actual position of the French Go vernmeitt in the Roman States must present itself, as it dins to plain and practical people in London and Edinburgh, in a CTO•11 light extremely unfa vourable to good looks. Perhaps in the Neapo litaii States it is not much better; for there the ambiguous action of the French Admiral, with or without definite instructions, is prolonging and exasperating a fratricidal war, and for the sake it seems of an occasional complimentary paragraph in the (Meta Gazette, permitting and encouraging needless bloodshed, and sacrificing the lives of hundreds of his fellow-creatures. The French Admiral, it is true, has obtained at this price the Order of ST. J•evartivs--that perspiring Saint, whose gifts and graces, by some mysterious process of royal transubstantiation, are enabled to be pre sent in the bottle at Naples, and at the same time to be capable of " communication "at Gaeta. If M. Le Bazaars are TINAN were not a Legi timist in principle, he could hardly receive even the Order of ST. JANCASIUB without a pang at the thought of doing so little to deserve it ; ex cept in preventing Admiral Pismo(' from humanely and considerately shelling the Boca moo out of his last lair, and by a few well-directed shots giving peace to a distracted realm. But the " attitude" of the French Government in the Roman States, towards the Papal government on the one hand and the Italian nation on the other, is even more embarrassing, equivocal, and—in one word—false. We desire to speak on this delicate subject with all the deference and sympathy which our respect for liberal France inspires. We desire to discuss it in no narrow or prejudiced spirit; not as Englishman and Protestants, but from the point of view which moderate, disinterested, and liberal Frenchmen may occupy, without any slur upon their patriotism, as heirs of the Revolution of 'B9, and jealous alike of French honour and French principles. We shall take advantage of our native license of thought and speech to make one remark only ; or ratherto hazard one suggestion. Is itoonosiv able that the Imperial policy, which is held abroad to be the highest expression of the unity of a single will, is sometimes diverted and carried away by the eddies of opposing currents—the one flowing from a Minister, and the other from the Sove reign ? This hypothesis may be for aught we know as futile u audacious, but at least it would solve some disagreeable enigmas, and account for some painful contradictions. Be this as it may, the phenomena we have to notice are not only perplexing to any honest mind, they offend and irritate both friends and adversaries of the French floverninent. Take instances. The Ceastite timed, replying with evidently unfeigned moped to the harmless protests of M. Di LAMM. reale tux, who as a Legitimist is devoted bite Pore, and as • Senator to the Empire, appeals in a tone of injured innocence and unctuous sea prise to the fact that France has protected his HoLIN ass for more than ten years, and protects him still ; that France has never favoured the idea, or aided the accomplishment, of Italian unity; and that only the other day France regarded with mover! displeasure the entrance of a Piedmontese army into the States of the Church. And the Comae :tionovt—deny it who can I—is strictly and scrupulously accurate in these statements. How is it then that his H o resents the protect:on, and treats the disploeure as so much moonshine 1 Italy herself is more grateful Turning to the Eternal City, what do we see and beer 1 The telegraph (sometimes betrayed into after-dinner confidences and confessions) reported a day or two since that M. ms GOTON considered his position untenable. This niceness of taste in the G MICAL breaks out alter many years. We should be guilty of gran injustice to M. DI Govint if we could suppose that he had been insensible all these years to the honour and glory of his unique com mand. In the whole French army it would pro bably have been almost impossible to find so con summate and typical a so/dut de Pape. If we are not mistaken, M. us Clorox enjoys the rare fate and c. it .ous theta uction—in a French army—of never even • field of battle. Sven were he not a Legitimist at heart, and a devout Catholic into the Lorain, It would be difficult to replace M. Di 00TON in his command at Rome, where a mixture of tact, urbanity, and devotion is more desirable than mere military qualities. General DE GOTON, km, iti:s received from rs*oi. 11. of Gaeta the order of ST. JANI:11•11.4 ; and if it be correcUy re ported that be would fain have prevented the oo cupetiou of Orvieto by the Italian forces, that he declines to give up the arms of the runaway Bourbon soldiers, and that he is about to occupy Terrains in order to keep out the Piedmonts**, General cameos certainly deserves all the favours which VIttNCIR 11. can bestow, sod all the blessings which His HOLlNfatm tea spare to • benefactor. Yet poor Pro Nose —peevish sod esactuig as an invalid old lady, or a petted child whose tyrannous weakness is the terror of the household—looks askance on this gallant defender, snap* up his neat little compli mentary speeches, and treats him altogether as something neither flesh nor fish, neither gran nor inaerre—something between • fib ds Voltaire in purple stockings, and a sevaiost de Vial disguised as a Capocin. We can feel for M. its °ovum in his " untenable " position. But what is the " attitude" of the Imperial Goi eminent all this time towards Reim, Italy, and Europe ? It ill becomes the dignity of a great Power to hear all the the dupe T What credit or protracted oocupation of the PETEe bring to Prams, or to ' went I It is no looser to countervail epos of Austria Oa Prance _ was the Asa of the Osleanista, whose enlightened selfainesi soceseded so we➢ abroad and at home, and whose present devotion to the Papacy is so worthy of all respect. Austria in 1880 is nowhere--as an influence ; she is everywhere, as an overhanging cloud of war. Does the French occupation of Rome satisfy the Catholic party in Prance ; that is, the con spiracy of defeated factions and discarded Ministers who We the defence of Catholic ideas a cloak for impotent political hostilities I It does not even satisfy the miserable Government which it protects. The Pore resents it as an insult, and bewails it as a persecution. The Cardinale groan tinder it, and the hierarchy in France, who take their orders from Rome, get up a conspiracy of prayers, and pence, and pastorals against the pro testor. The Emperor of the nixes has only to keep his eyes and ears open to decide whether he would make a single new enemy to his throne or person by frankly leaving the government ad ministered by Cardinal AwrossuJ to the natural consequences of its feeble obstinacy and malignant infatuation. He must know whether the representatives of the national will in France—the men of intellect, enterprise, and in dustry ; the merchants, the manufacturers, the speculators, the employers, the agriculturists, the youth of the schools, the elite of the working ohms, the army—demand or desire the =sante memos of the temporal power of the Papacy by the arm of France. The Kniparor of the Fames is perfectly aware that the expedition to Rome was not his own act, but the act of a re actionist majority ; in an Assembly dominated by a party who are now handsomely re warded for putting down the liberties of the Romans by losing their own. The President of the Republic executed the instructions of M. DS SONTAL MUER; but he also wrote • letter demanding reforms which the government of His HOLINIIIR stall laughs to worn. The programme recommended in that famous letter was a revolution to which no Papal government ever will or ever can consent. Neronsow will be faithful to the earliest associations of his public life • to the declared purposes of the President of the French Republic and the conqueror at Solferino, if at length he summarily and decisively absolves himself from a thankless and irksome task. This Roman question, in its relation to France, was &lingua difficulty, and is fast becoming • disgrace. There is but one way out of it—and that way is now open. Let the French occupying tinny (which by its admirable discipline and exemplary conduct under trying circurnstanoes has ecincifiated the esteem and affection of the Romans) retire from Italy. Let the Emperor of the rsaNCH invite his ally to take the place which, by right of his Kingship and the national will, belongs to the King of ITALY. An Italian army will enter Rome amidst the grateful acclamations of an entire people, and will offer its respectful homage to the Head of the Church. Vim' Extu.sacm, albeit technically excommunicate, will be proud and happy to offer the protection of his shield to the sacred person of the successor of BIN Pmts. Ile will guard the Eternal City from the assaults of anarchy, and surround its churches end monuments with the veneration and affection of a free and loyal people. The increasing revenues of emancipated and prosperous Italy will furnish an ample establishment to the Supreme Bishop. Neither poverty, nor humility, nor any other pri mitive apostolical virtue, but simply a contented mind, and resignation to a solely spiritual aupre• many—these are the fair conditions on which M. DB MONTANO'S/AT% latest ideal, "a free Church in a free State," can be realised at Rome. Delivered at length from that body of death, the temporal sovereignty, and purged from the dross of loans and lotteries; dependent no longer on one monarch's capricious sympathy, on another's sar castic protection, on another's heavy-handed patro nage, the Church of Rome will rise from the cor ruption and mortality of its temporal power like a Christian soul released from its prison of clay. Is this a dreamt We sincerely believe that many of . the most ardent and disinterested Catholics are beginning to desire that it may prove a reality. Ebe court. WINDSOR CAME, Nov. 22.

The royal yacht Victoria ad Albert, with the Lwow of Austria on board, was in eight at 7.30 am. The Osborne arrived an hoar later. The Victoria and Albert had the Austrian standard at the main. As eh* etaanted round the breakwater, the citadel, and the rowels in the Sound, H.M.S. St. George and Sanepareil fired a royal salute.

It is expected that her Majesty will leave for Xadelza this evening. l'he Osborne is in the Sound coaling. I am happy : to say that the question of the southern army disbandment has been satisfactorily settled since my last., Count Cavour, who is at once a clever politician and a man of justice, saw directly the blunder General Fend had committed by publishing an order of the day, which was tantamount to a peremptory disbandment of Garibaldi's army. Fanti, although a clever gefteral, baa brought from Spain all the harebeese which distinguished the Spanish generals of both the Carliat and Christina parties. Fall of red tape notions, he seeki to apply to exceptional cir cumstances the rules which would be adopted in calmer times. Hence the decision which he per suaded Victor Emmanuel to take. An opportunity had been thus offered to the opposition party, and, as the fact proved, it was not slow to seize it. Better counsels have, however, prevailed at Turin ; and, as I told you before, the quads of this small but brave army will be kept as the nucleus of a corps around whose liar will gather the volunteers who shall be called forth to fight the last war against Austria. Now that publicopinion has thus settled thisimat ter, it is to be hoped that the general who won the battle of the Volturno, and gave Sicily and the Neapolitan kingdom to Victor Enunanuel, will be induced ftoj leave !hie retirementat Caprers,tasd come here once more:smitid his t brave coinpanioas in arms. Enema. the JIM 011 4191 . rtis at Pera—that rotting and decaying Turkey has found people in Paris simple enough to ad varice DO millions. 11 good stroke of - businens, be observes, in that it outbids England, but, Snail , oialli speaking, one of the worst conceivable. Of course, as to the commercial value of the affair, a good deal will depend upon the terms to be written in the bond. For the simplicity of the Parisian negotiators, Israelites without guile abound not on the mart of Paris more than elsewhere. The ilassiciers in question are men quite able to take cars of themselves. The announcement made by the Giornale di Roma that the collectors of Peter's pence are to be constituted an " order " is thus commented on by the ilierle Title is the crowning of the pontifical edifice, the founda tions of which were so laboriously laid in Frame. And yet there are people who have the effrontery to tell us this collection of Peter's peace is not a political question, nor one of a hierarchic organisation, bat simply as attempt to preserve a liberty, that, namely, of giving aline. Is there any necessity to demand this right! After observing that where any real ease of charity is in question, men of all religious denomi nations are ready and anxious to give, the objects of the new confraternity are thus enumerated : What is really Wooded is to rouse the catholic' in favour of the reestablishment of the temporal power; te raise an army is lien of that which has just bees de stroyed, dtsperied ; to provide with arms those Neapolitans whom FM0111126 already been accused of wishing to motors to their coonta7 ; to make war against Italian nationality, Marty, and the sovereignty of the people ; to bring about a motion against the PraDoo-italian policy, and the inevit able results of those solemn words, "Italy must be free hots the Alps to the Adriatic." It is difficult to lend credence to the recent decree published in the Official Gazette of Venice, commanding all parents, on pain of fine, to bring back their sons from any foreign land in which they may be pursuing their education. This monstrous and abominable edict is worthy of the worst days of protestant persecution under Louis XIV. It is one of that class of governmental acts the most calculated to goad a maddened people to overt insurrection, and yet it emanates from a government which there are yet partisans found to denominate as "paternal." The Queen Mother, widow of Ferdinand 11., is at the Quirinal at Rome, with her younger chil dren ; the young Queen remains at Gaeta. The reactionary movements are assuming a serious aspect. We learn that at Fuori-Grotti, near Naples, a party of royalists, as the Bourbon parti sans call themselves, attacked the national guard, and that on the arrival of troops from Naples these disturbers of the peace had dispersed, leaving in their place a bevy of the fair sex, who received the " regulars" with a volley of abuse, and cries of " Long live Francis IL" At A vezzano the pro prietors were attacked by the peasantry, and when General Pinelli quitted Aquila with the troops he had there to quell the riol, disorders broke out in Aquila itself. The Council of the Bank of France met to-day, but at the close of the Bourse the result of its de liberations was not known. The general belief is that there will be no rise in the rate of interest— some people even talk of its being lowered : this Deems highly improbable. Speculation at the Bourse had in general a downward tendency. The Route left off at 70fr. 15c., both for cash and the account, being a fall of fro.

King Victor Emmanuel has received a deputa tion by whom he was presented with the result of the plebiscite in the Marches and Umbria. It is believed that some modifications will be made in the Council of Lieutenancy at Naples.

SARDINIA AND FRANCE. PARIS, FRIDAY. The Moniteur publisbee a convention concluded between the governments of Sardinia and France, arranging several questions in reference to the an of Savoy and Nice. It is determined that the portion of the Sardinian debt chargeable to Savoy and Nice shall be 4* millions of Routes, which the French government shall remit to Sar dinia. The charges incurred by Sardinia on ac count of Savoy and Nice, will be transferred to France. FRENCH EXPORTS.

The overdue mail steamer from Constantiuople Las just arrived. CONSTANTINOPLE, Nov. 14. The Cesare Herald states that the foreign representatives are about to submit a scheme of provincial and financial reforms to the Porte, and will at the same time oonjointly urge its adoption. Great anxiety is still felt by the Porte as to the French loan. A difficulty has arisen on the question of accepting the tenders and terms. Stamps and a new tax on farm cattle have boon created. The Galata money market iy depressed, and government securities have fallen considerably. It is said that Imail Paella, of the Danubian provinces, is to complete the late mission of the Grand Vizier. OONSTANTINOPLE, Nov. 17. The ratification of the French loan wee sent to Paris yesterday. The arrears due to the troops have been paid. The Porte has sent physicians to Beyrout. News has been received here from Cireassia of the signal failure of Bariatinaki's expedition against Dagliestan. Great loss WY suffered by the Russians. General Kmety has resigned the Syrian com mand, on account of having been reproached by Fusd Pacha with partiality to the Christians. Although the French Loan has been concluded, exchange is still rising. The project for a local loan, which was recently spoken of, has fallen through. SWITZERLAND. BERNE, T/101111DIT.

In yesterday's sitting of the Cortee sei4iiidiplo matic documents relating to Rome and Naples were communicated by government. GREECE. TRIESTE, TIMUIDAY. Intelligence recoired from Athens states that the Chambers were opened on the 12th inst. TRIESTE. A letter from Trieste of the 17th inst. says : Fresh errata are &Misting the inhabitants of our desolate town. Signor G. Seale, outlier of • well-known and re spectable nieroantile house, sad Signor Ravasini, a person of respectability, have been arrested for openly expressing their opinion that our country was falling into ruin under its Austrian rulers. Kell, the Director of Police, the Com missary Parma and Bresclani are arbitrarily playing the part of the inquisitors of old, and persecuting and arresting at their pleasure. The Triestines and the latrines generally are emigrating in mailer to Milan, where many have doze ailed themes/vim: many have entered the Piedmontese army. The impeniel wed Reysl Gazette summons the nu merous Triestlei and Istrian emigrants to pedant them selves hdere the Imperial and Royal Pretorahip within three maths. A court-martial is vigorously at work at Trieste. Ts'.iky it has been trying the distinguished actor, Giessili of Capo d'lstria, one of the many martyrs of Wig who have striven together with us to shake off the Austrian yoke. Is the face of the general discontent of the population, the Chamber of Commerce, at the instigation of Re Imperial and Royal President, Vireo, baa boned a law prohibiting porters from carrying their kJ:IITM or hooks except in working hours. To exasperate people still more, our vile municipal authorities, in spite of the sovereign decree that instruction should be given in the Italian lan guage, hove done away with it, notwithstanding fervent petitions signed by more than 4,000 persons, and have substituted instruction in German, which nobody wanted. In short, insurrection is imminent, and we are only waiting for the aid of our toethren beyond the Mincio. All Italians here are thoroughly tired of our bad government, and impatient to join their lot to that of their common country. PORTUGAL (1101 ova OWN LISBON, Nov. 17. The Diario do Govern lias published an order that the officers and men of the Portuguese navy assume mourning for the space of three days, in Inemory of the death of Admiral Sir Charles Napier, itho was Count of Cape St. Vincent, in the Portu guese Peerage. Moreover, the keel of a war schooner has been laid in the Royal Arsenal, which Lto be called the " Admiral Napier," in comme moration of his services in the so-called war of in dependence in this country. The weather has become very wet and tem - tuous ; rain has been wanted, but there has lately fallen a much greater quantity than was necessary. The subscription for the erection of a monument to the memory of the celebrated Lusitanian poet, Luis de Camoens, amounts now tothe sum of 1,0001., and I believe the work will soon be commenced. The Plymouth division of the Channel fleet has arrived, and is now riding at anchor in the Tagus. There was no occurrence worthy of remark during the voyage.

The Clamor Pieblico of Madrid complains that the policy of the cabinet is marked with great indecision, and it mays that the journals which defend that policy being them selves undecided also, speak in this wise :—On Sundays, in favour of Italy, Victor Emmanuel, and Garibaldi ; on Mondays, against the Pops and hi temporal power ; on Tuesdays, in fitvoctr of that power, and with sympathy for the afflictions of his Holiness; on Wednesdays, violent against France and England ; on Thursdays, in f avour o f both ; on Fridays, furious against Francis 11. and the Au.- trims ; and on Saturdays they suspend their judgments. General Mrs and the late Pro-Dictator Palle skull arrived at Genoa on the 18th. The deputations charged with the address of the Senate and of the Lower House to the King were to leave Turin and Gonna yester day. More than sixty of the memtien of both houses will accompany the deputations, and they will proceed to Naples or Palermo, according as the King shall be reported to be at either of those towns. THE EHPABSS OP THE 11tHATCH IN SCOTLAND. —*-- (From the Scotawais.) The Empress, accompanied by the Countess de Montebello, Madame de Seeley, sad the Marquis de la Grange, left Douglas's Hotel in ea open carriage about eleven o'clock yesterday (Wednesday) forenoon, and pro ceeded by the Bridges, Nicoleonetreet, and so on to Dallseath. The weather was far from favaaashie to the enjoyment of the beautiful billy and sylvan sosnary room tired an the way, the sky being dull and clouded and the air strong and cold. •In the latter part of the journey Thin bdiPn to taa. but That so hamlly am to canoe the carriage to be dosed. A rumour of the unexpected arrival having got abroad, about a hundred of the townspeople collected in the palace pounds to veleme their distinguished and royal visitor. After being conducted through the palace, the Empress with her suite returned to their carriage. Her Ma jesty next drove to the Palace Chapel, which she entersdand carefully inspected, expressing herself highly delighted with the objects that came under her notice. The illustrious party was deterred from inspecting the romantic grows& of the palace by the weather, which had now become quite boisterous, the wind furiously howling among the trees, aad scattering their sere leaves far and wide. Her Majesty therefore returned to the carriage, and left the palace at a quarter per one. It was intended on leaving the palace that Radio and Hawthoreden should be visited, but the weather frustrated the intention, so the royal carriage re tuned an it came, arriving at Douglas's Hotel about half- 1 past two. The Lord Provost called at Douglas's Hotel yesterday afternoon about five o'clock, when his lordship had the Moor of being presented to the Empress, and met with a most cordial reception. The Lord Provost, we believe, as sured her Majesty that the corporation of the city, as well as the whole of his fellow-citizeus, were highly pleased and de lighted that Edinburgh had been selected as a place of tem porary sojourn during her visit to Scotland. He added that her Majesty must have witnessed the interest which was felt sad manifested in herself personally, and he hoped that this had not inconvenienced her Ma , but would rather be regarded as indicating the gnti&ition which was felt at the confidence manifested by the Emperor of the French in the good feeling of the people of this country. Permission was given to the Lord Provost to read the fol. lowing address, which was drawn up by his lordship's com mittee, in accordance with the resolution of the council at their miring on Tuesday:— "To Eugenie, Empress of the French. " May it please your Majesty,—We, the Lord Provost, magistrates, and council of the city of Edinburgh, beg leave, for ourselves and on behalf of our fellow-citizens, to convey to your Majesty our expression of unfeigned 1 faction at your arrival in this city, and our hope that your visit to fieiAland may prove beneficial to your Majesty's heath.

BROWN DOCIOLAS, Lord Provost" The Empress, in reply, was graciously pleased to may that she felt very much gratified at receiving this oommunicie tpoe ; and regretted that her knowledge of the English Isaguage would not allow her to express herself so fully we she could have wished. But she had a very kind and atm- Mort. feeling towards Scotland and its people, and she regretted that beir visit was necessarily so short. She would look back with much satisfaction to the very kind feeling manifested towards bee in Edinburgh, and would always feel great pleasure at the recollection of her visit to the city. Her Majesty added that as she was visiting this country not In state, she could not receive any mere formal address (which might be /WOO. sistent with her duty to the Queen of Ibiglasd), but she was very glad to be assured of the feeling entertained towards her by the citizens of Edinliengh, and was very happy to receive the address thus presented to her. Her Majesty assured the Lord Provost of the earnest desire on the part of the Emperor to maintain the alliance, and to eultivide a good feeling with the people of this country, and imprecated a hope that the people of Greet Britro would be fully remedy,' of this. The Lord Provost having thanked the Empress for the gracious manner in which the address had been received then took leave. The Duke of Hamilton arrived yesterday evening at Dejay's French Hotel t Princes'eireet, and shortly after war& visited Douglas Hotel, where his grace dined with the Empress It is rumoured that her Majesty will leave Edinburgh to day for the north, but whether finally or not is unknown. The Ghwigow Daily Mail has a Bowery and en thusiastic description of a grand ball at Hamilton Palace on Tuesday night. " Her grace," we are told, " was remarked to look exceedingly well and happy, and besides her unsay jewellery, wore a necklace of brilliants of peculiar beauty, whisk, we wore ieformed, wee acquired at a cost of 10,0001. Her grace did not dimes.

(From the Nao York naiad Nov. 10.) - - - From the highly interesting special despatches from various points, which we publish this morning, it will be seen that the disunion feeling in the South has already reached its culminating point, and that a calmer condition of the Southern mind is gradually being attained. Even in South Carolina, according to our latest accounts, the people are not, so ready for extreme measures as we were led to infer from the first intelligence following the know ledge of the suocees of ➢fr. Lincoln, and, of course, unless South Carolina takes the lead, it is not probable that any movement towards a disruption of the union will be made in any other quarter. A despatch from Columbia, received yesterday, announces that a bill bad passed the senate providing for the calling of a state convention to consider the subject of secession, but fixing the Bth of January as the day for electing dele gates thereto, and the 16th of January for the as. sembling of the convention. The house may insist upon an earlier day, but there is evidently a disposition not to be too precipitate. From Washington we learn that the Prise dent and cabinet held a meeting yesterday, at which the condition of attain in the south was discussed. Presi dent Buchanan, according to the despatch of our corn►- poodeot, is confident that South Carolina will leave the Confederacy, but not during his term of office. Should the irus, however, be precipitated before that time, he believes it to be madness to attempt coercion, as that would have the effect to disrupt the whole union. It is understood that Secretary Cobb alone excused the ex treme position of the Palmetto State. The hope was generally entertained that, even in case she saw fit to secede, the cool judgment of the best men of the South would prevent any such action on the part of other states. At any rate, should South Carolina annul the resolutions by which she adhered to the Federal Constitution, she will be let alone by the present administration. It seems that the rumour of the resigns. tioa of the collector of the port of Charleston was untrue, but that the federal judge has resigned, as dated. No effort will be made at present to fill the vacancy, as the only embarrassment ocoaaioned will be felt by the South Carolinians themselves. (From the New York Independent.) The power of the slave interest at Washington is broken. The incubus of slavery is thrown off from the federal go. vernment. For the four years after the 4th of March next, offices under the general government will be had not for sub serviency to slavery end to the sectional interests, institutions, and measures of the South, but for an honest and capable devotion to the righteous ends of government under • constitution of freedom. The slaves are not emanci pated—for no voting or legislation at the North can reach their use. And yet tko day of their safe and peaceable emancipation will be v isibly h.-stencil by the inaogar•tion of an era of freedom at Washington. Tho ant of government is emancipated from the rule of the bludgeon and the bowie-knife. The Postaffice is emancipated from the terrors of mob-law. The highways of trade and travel are freed from the ruffianism of slave. drivers. Northern cotton merchants are emancipated from the dread of disunion. And, most of all, speech and pea and vote at the South will be emancipated from the tee. mei= that has so long repressed any honest and manly sentiment against slavery. The New York Times of the 9th says :—" Lady Franklin, yesterday, visited the Rutgers Female Institute, when she was introduced to the young ladies by Rev. Dr. Krebs, who made a short' address. Remarks were also made by Dr. J. W. Francis, after which Rev. Dr. Asa D. Smith, in behalf of the young ladies of the Senor Chas, promoted lady Franklin with a richly-illustrated volume.' An order of the French Prefect of Police enjoins the immediate introduction of the diapason fixed by law in all concerts, balls, and places of musical entertainment. The Zoological Garden in the Bois de Boulogne has just just been enriched by two magnificent lophophores, birds from the Himalaya Mountains, the dazzling plumage of which has procured them the name of the golden bird. At the last rehearsal of the new ballet at the Grand Opera, Paris, Mdlle. Duette, one of the &mouses, while stooping forward to speak to some one in the orchestra, let bee dress come in contact with the footliAts, and it was immediately in a blase. Fortunately the demos were extinguished almost immediately and the let re. osived only • few slight burns. On Wednesday evening a dinner was given to the Mayor of Derby, Mr. Cox, at the Royal Hotel in that town. Mr. Baas, M.P., in the course of a speech, referred to par. liamentary talk. "I don't wish," he said, "to disparage any of the speakers, for some of them are undoubtedly able debaters, but when I tell you that some spoke at least 100 times, end others as often as 900 times, I think I have given you a pretty good reason why so little has been done. (Hear, hear.) For instance, Mr. Ayrton, a clever man, spoke 217 times; Mr. R. James, Q.C., spoke 196 time ; Mr. Newdegate, 123 ; Mr. Bouverie, 1153 ; Mr. Pope &winery, 109 ; Mr. Matins, 105 ; and Mr. Darby Griffith, 10L (laughter.) But nu doubt not one of these gentle men spoke oftener than he believed the true interests of the country required. (A laugh.) Again, nine metropolitau members (exclusive of the city of London and Middlesex) made 955 speeches, and if all the rest of the hollykr had spoken in the same proportion it would have taken five years to get through a session of parliament." Trade is now better in Ireland than it has been for many previous years. In the course of a discussion at the board of the North Dublin Union on Tuesday, the gratifying fact was mentioned that there is not now a single tradesman within the workhouse, a circumstance which presents a remarkable contrast as regards former years. The number of inmates has also greatly diminished. We mentioned yesterday , the melancholy occur rence which happened on Tuesday to Mr. Bally, while following the Beaufort hounds. The fears expressed have been unhappily realised by Mr. Baily's death. He was riding with hie usual spirit, and had just remarked that the fox would escape by drowning, when he was attacked by a fit of apoplexy and fall from his horse. Death terminated hie sufferings the same evening. Unfortunately, Mrs. Baily was at Weston-super-Mare, from which she was immediately summoned to the family rewidenoe, Aldaley Court. Her father (11r. Daniel Cave) also proceeded to the house, but life had I 1 d ere they reached it. Mr. gaily was long • well-known citizen of Bristol. being for num y years engaged in the lend trade, and his sudden removal regarded with sorrow by a large circle of friends. He am 65 years age
