' y:-.:-..,. e. , • EFol? THE SUN. LONDON, FRIDAY, AUGUST 8, 1862 -• Conspicuous by its absence," is one topic in her MAJESTY'S Speech—that of Parliamentary Reform. Egn - I.llv conspicuous, for these days, we might say, is the absen ce of another topic--that of Ecclesiastical Reform. In other language not a sentence was there indicating that anything had been done in the cause of either civil or religious liberty. Row is it that we take so quietly this sort of thing? Are we really content with the last patching and repairing of our venerable constitu tion ? Does th e nation really believe that its civil and religions liberties are perfected, or so near per fection, that a whole session may be spent without any attempt to amend them. As to " reaction," the more sensible Of the Tories laugh at the idea themselves, A halt ther e may be, but we should ! the result of some attempt to repeal in lik e to see thole or in pqrt any of the franchises gained by the Reform Act , o r b y any o f the acts which followed upon it. No party dares to bring any such a ngent or the Co en proposition before Parli f Lord try . But that with the advent to for the furtherance power o pAtmpat.. SToN this time, all measures of civil and religious liberty, have come to a stand, is e f e C o hes, both a perfectly true, and the QUEEN' p Parliament, t h e commencement and theclose t had h ave borne witness to the fact. Her advisers t h e mselves, no inclination to propose any thin g others know it to be usel ess t o re p eat their former proposals, even those which had been sanctioned by both the great parties, and therefore her AfAJESTY has nothing of the kind on which to congratulate My Lords and Gentlemen" when she takes her leave of them. We must confess that, for all this, we think the character of the Premier has most to answer for. The universal opinion of such a political vete ran can hardly be a wrong one. For a large part Of his life, he was thought, being absorbed in Foreign policy, to be pretty much indifferent to questions of political Reform. If he could but steer our couvde abroad, he was content to let the Rus- SELLS and GREYS, in their Reforming days, do pretty much as they please. Of late, advance, in years, and wealth is pretty correctly believed to have changed i:Adifserence to aversion, and though from necessity of position, a professed Liberal, he is regarded neither on the Treasury benches, nor on these of the Opposition, as a friend to any single, much less to an y comprehensive measure for libe ralising the Representation. It is held to be per- fectly certain that he will not back either the ma- jority, or the whole of his party, in any movement, however slight, in the direction of Parliamentary Reform. He might not vote against them, except, indeed, on the question of enabling every man to do his own, instead of his landlords, voting; but all reformers well know that he would insist on aothing. However welcome to them might be a teu pound franchise in counties, or a six pound one in boroughs, or some bona Ado preventive clauses _..... in the " Elections Corruption Prevention Bi11"® all who wished to do little or much in this line knew that they were a nuisance to Lord PALMER STON, and that even what he could hardly disap prove, he would " damn by faint praise," or by secret intimations to his friends that they would not aLnoy him, but rather the contrary, by " making themselves scarce" at divisions. _ _ __ Conveniently concurrent with his hardly con cealed aversion to the measures he took office to carry, were his war measures. Under the name of Defence he adopted a thorough war policy in time of peace. He kept the country cleverly alive with the notion of danger, till he got it into a position, in which it not only need fear no danger, but one which enabled him to speak with authority in the councils of Europe. This we believe was his real, though not his avowed, object. We cannot imagine that he, of all, men, was ever weak enough to believe that France would commence a perfectly gratuitous attack on our coasts for the very equivo cal honour of a temporary success in an unexpected raid. But he, so long a foreign Minister, natu rally thinks it the highest honour to any nation that all others shall regard it as the one supreme in naval and military strength. That supremacy he desired to confer on his country. He regarded doing so as patriotism. He knew that we should not be content to pay income - ta x and thirty millions a year to attain it, so he very cleverly kept up a series of alarms, which enabled him to accomplish his pur pose, trusting that when he had once placed us at the head of Europe, our pride would make us willing to bear the cost of keeping there. Admirably has all this seemed to divert the nation's mind from political reforms. It had quite enough to do to raise the money demanded by the Premier, and to keep its eye on the French Dock-yards as a greater danger than corrupt boroughs and servile counties. An Ecclesiastical Liberal we believe Lord PAL MERSTON to be, at heart ; we question whether it would grieve Mm to repeal the Act of Uniformity. He does not believe in being " righteous overmuch;' and, if it could be managed we imagine that there is none of our prominent Whigs or Tories whose disposition would more prompt him to accept Lord STANLEY'S watchword " Religious Equality." We do not believe that his backwardness to support energetically measures of Religious Liberty arose from personal feeling, but entirely from political position. He would like to see Church Rates abo lished the Marriage Law amended in respect to the old canon made binding by the Bishop of LONDON'S Act on those who rej ct it, parish burial grounds open on equal terms to allparishioners,clergymen free to give up their profession, by giving up its emoluments and Nonconformists held to be men sufficiently " religious " to act as trustees of Grammar Schools, whose trust deeds mention no special creed. We believe Lord PALMERSTON, whatever he has been accused of, has never been charged with bigotry, nor has he ever been suspected even of being a High or a stiff Churchman. Lord PALM ERSTON is, however, no enthusiast for his opinions on these points. He would not risk the reputation of his Government by making any of them a Government measure. He could, pro bably, have carried some of them had he done so. He would not vote against his opinions, but he would not hazard anything for the sake of them. Politically, in the party view, he might be right. Yet there are two sides to the question. We do not believe that the "organised hypocrisy," of which Mr. DISRAELI forms the centre, can last for long. What Churchmen, under his pious leadership, would insist on withholding from their fellow citizens, fellow-taxpayers, and fellow subjects—aye such clear rights or grievances, as we may please to view them, that the complainants must ulti mately prevail. The age is against class privileges altogether, and most of all against privileges founded on the assumption, that one class is holier than another, or more in favour with its MAKER. The time must be at hand when the universa I opinion will be that one man's belief in the Prayer Book should entitle him to nothing more than another's belief in the Bible, or another's in the Porn, or even another's in the philosophy of COMPTE. Perhaps Lord PALMERSTON thinks that what he believes to be the right notion of reli gious liberty will not be politically predominant in his time. Which may be true. Be the reason what it may, under Lord PALMERSTON, the reli gious liberty which we believe he sincerely loves, makes no more progress than the electoral purity and extension of the franchise which he sincerely hates. The ball is still rolling there in Sicily. But which colour will gain must still be looked upon as problematical. While it yet rolls RATAZZI stakes everything on the game now playing—his adminis trative reputation, his political power, his official portfolio, his premiership, it may be the very crown and sceptre of his Sovereign. NAPOLEON RATAZZI'S instigator—standing half-covertly there in the back ground, the croupier's rake cleverly slipped for the time into his hand ready to sweep together (as he hopes) all the winnings—or at any rate the very pick of them. How will matters stand, however, when the movement, of which we are now witnessing but the earliest commencement, is drawing towards its close ? What are the French EMPEROR'S ideas in regard to the prospects of Italian Uuity, for example ? Well, we all knew them long ago. They were shown to be very sinister ideas in the mere preamble of his opening mani festo or proclamation, when, first drawing the sword as Emperor of FRANCE, he declared for Italy and against Austria. True that his declaration then H e but particularly when he had celebrated the his fa tuous of the Capital of Lombardy, by issuing butciet m :n of t deceptive Milan Proclamation —was _ w ita o li t:l ta s i , i, went beyond th at any rate, in favour of " Italy for the Nay, the French EMPEROR • magnificent, but vague, because g eneralised i announcing at (still in the Milan rend er in entering upon proclamation), matio w nl as tho that War , e y a i f ot r nh e e i r o o Enf m turrao t r h py e e.

Again and again the French EMPEROR in sisted that his HOLINESS was to his own in Central Italy—he himself (NAPO LEON) reserving in his own hands w hat the Czar NicsoLA B coveted so dearly a " m aterial guarantee" that his Imperial will should be carried out. The French Emnsuoß holding Rome then THE SUN, LONDON, FRIOA Y EVENING, AUGUST 8, 1F62. holding it still to this day with his garrison. Beyond which—all the minor princes of Italy, or at least of that portion of Italy lying between Lombardy and the States of the Chuteh, between the Adriatic and the Mediterranean—all those his Imperial Majesty was willing enough to have restored to their respective territories, to Parma, to Modena, to Tuscany I Provided, that is, that nothing could possibly be done in the way of agglomorating all those petty States into one good-sized one, which could then have been quietly handed over to the newly-married bridegroom of the Princess CLOTILDE, the EMPEROR'S first cousin, (once the heir presumptive to his Crown) H. I. H. Prince NAPOLEON. Then as to Naples, as to the Kingdom of the fwo Sicilies ? We are referring throughout these remarks to the period antecedent to the wonderful exploits in the South accomplished by GARIBALDI at the head of his 800 or 1,000 Gari- baldiana. Why, in regard to the Kingdom of the Two Sicilies, the views of the French EMPEROR were then but darkly hinted at, it is true, but they were all the while perfectly com prehensible. His MAJESTY had not been—any more than England had been—for some three or four years previously, in the smallest degree friendly, even in appearance, to the then King of the Two SICILIES. It is undeniable, of course, that when FRANCIS 11. and his gallant young wife took refuge at Gaeta, there standing at bay in opposition to the forces of Ki n g VICTOR EMMANUEL, the imperial squadron of France remained there during several weeks of the bombardment! All that while preventing the Italian ships of war frum effectually co-operating with the land forces, and thereby lengthening out the de fence quite unnecessarily—as, indeed, the event proved. From which interposition of the French EMPEROR it might be argued by superficial obser vers that his Imperial Majesty was favourably dis posed to the then fast failing cause of the Bourbons, and would fain (if he could but have had the hardihood thus to falsify all his own ante cedents) have actually supported it. Keener sighted lookers-on knew perfectly well, however, that the real facts in regard to that anomalous proceeding on the part of NAPOLEON led to quite a contrary conclusion, if those facts were but seriously looked into. It being manifest that the French squadron hovered during all those weeks of bootless bloodshed off Gaeta—not because the EMPEROR loved the cause of the Neapolitan Bour bons more, but because he loved that of GARIBALDI and of all the champions of Italian Unity less. He had an eye, in fact, all this while, he has still, to what we may call—dynastic windfalls! There is. Prince MURAT— still living, still attached to the EMPEROR'S Court— with a very " presentable" claim to a reversionary interest in the Crown (if it were only once more to go a-begging !) of the Two Sicilies. No—however much the Moniteur may disclaim any such intentions and aspirations—their existence is not be denied. And as to the EMPEROR'S individual preference for Italy not " United," but, on the contrary, (as his IMPERIAL MAJESTY has himself put it in black and white in his ever memorable programme) as A Con federation of indepenaent Kingdoms, Duchies, and Principalities—the truth that such is his preference is a fact notorious and undeniable. So that—the declaration of one after another of the Minor States of Italy in favour of VICTOR EMMANUEL as King of ITALY was glaringly in direct opposition to the EMPEROR'S wishes ! So that—the amazing success attendant upon GARIBALDI'S wonderful expoits in Sicily and in Naples, was a result as distasteful as could be to NAPOLEON 111. So that—equally as a matter of course—the unfurling of the GARIBALDI Banner now once more for the renewal and completion definitively (if that ne possible) of these astonishing exploits of the great Italian adventure, are again diametrically an tagonistic to the will, the aim, the ambition of the French EMPEROR. It has been proved by this time to be so in contestibly—and has been so proved on all hands ! By GARIBALDI'S bearing in NAPOLEON'S regard—by the bearing towards GARIBALDI of NAPOLEON'S creature the Italian Prime Minister RATAZZI—by the bearing in regard to them, one and all (a bearing very silent, but very significant), of NAPOLEON himself ! As to GARIBALDI'S treat ment of the EMPEROR'S name, wishes, power — language could not be expressive of feelings more intensely antagonistic. As to RATAZZI'S words in reference to GARIBALDI, none could be more heinous in their ingratitude. As to the French EMPEROR, finally—what are "the facts" just now ? Now that the game of war is again afoot, among the Italians! Now that GARIBALDI is call ing the youth of Italy together for another manifestation ! Now that under the French rather than the Italian Premiership of RATAZZI at Turin, the Ministers of VICTOR EMMANUEL are committed to a policy directly opposed to the policy of GARI BALDI. The Emperor NAPOLEON, from his early autumnal seclusion at Vichy is—even in his me ditations over the " Life of Julius Caesar"—perfectly prepared for the new emergency. The French gar rison at Rome (at his orders) are on the qui vive, have recovered all the positions along the southern frontiers from which they had but very recently fallen back. The French squadron off the coast there in the Mediterranean are (at his orders) in structed to act now with the utmost promptitude and vigilance. The EMPEROR knows that he has dragged into (for them at least) a fatal accord with himself, RATAZZI and his col leagues— and with them the Chambers—and with the Chambers the KING. GARIBALDI in the meantime has fairly sounded the tocsin. Ali the Youth of Italy appear to be answering the sum mons upon the instant, to be rapidly rising in arms and hurrying together from the North and from the South to swell the ranks of the first little band of the Garibaldians. The odds against them—even it' they could be promptly brought together and massed into an army under the leadership of their idolized Hero, GARIBALDI—seem to be very for midable. The KING has declared against them. For how long we know not. RATAZZI'S Ministry is dead against them—and will doubtless remain so as long as NAPOLEON'S creature continues to be at the head of the Italian Government, The imperial army and navy of France are against them. But —even against all these stupendous odds they have their Cause and they have GARIBALDI. The result of the threatened conflict it were impossible of course to predict. We can only watch the pro gress of events now with breathless solicitude. Ear nestly hoping that they will lead to the solution of of the Italian problem otherwise than by the sacri fice of a Hero like GARIBALDI. As if to make a little fun for other countries in the midst of their remorseless war, the Americans have at last taken to issuing halfpenny paper, with various multiples of this notable unit. It seems I ncredible, but the fact is tLat the head of FRANK LIN in blu e i s to b e goo d f or a h a lf penn y p a yment t 'ythe. Governm en t or t o th e G o v e rnment.

We in England find the convenience of postage stamps, and we think them well worth the pence marked on them. We are quite sure we can get the value out of them. Even if encumbered with their number, we sell them at a reasonable discount; they have an Intrinsic value in their own county, 240 of them being really worth the gold sovereign. Nothing of this character belongs to the new American paper. It was thought that Congress had made postage stamps legal tender in order to meet the demand for small change. Nothing of the sort, it seems, has been the result. A corre spondent of the 7imes assures us that it is an nounced that these stamps are to be issued by the Treasury, not by the Post-office, and to be printed on cardboard and not gum med, that they may not in any case be used for letters ! Neither are they to be legal tender, but only so between the Govern ment and its customers, or the Government and taxpayers. This is, of course, making them of legal value, and will hardly be any obstacle to their circulation. So we have for the first time, we believe, in the history of paper money, a paper halfpenny, or what the Amerieans call a cent, being the hundredth part of their almighty dollar, which is worth, as nearly as may be, fifty pence. Our paper money friends in this country ought to be delighted. They have got in America their Go vernment note receivable for taxes, and got it for a smaller amount than they ever dreamed of. None of them, that we know of, ever asked for a paper note of less than a pound; they have now a note for two farthings. They must watch and study the result, and some day they must favour us with a report of progress. "A Stockholder," in a letter to a contemporary, adverts to another American affair, in which a rail road company figures very much in the character known on this side of the water, as that of the "gene rous churchwarden." He says—" I observe in the Tunes of this morning that the Pennsylvania Rail road Company had offered to contribute 45,000 dols. to provide for the bounties to volunteers. This is in clear violation of its charter, no such right having been delegated to the directors. A very large por tion of the stock and bonds of this corporation is held in Europe. Innocent persons are therefore made to bear a part of the expense of the fratricidal war. This may not be a case in which Lord LYoNs can interfere, and the shareholders scattered about England and Europe, will have some difficulty in co-operating to make the directors responsible, but it is a case in which some steps ought to be taken to bring them if possible to unite in joint action. If, however, a single shareholder prosecuted the company in an Americancourt, we do not see how he could fail to obtain a verdict. A farmer of Weil, in the Grand Duchy of Baden, who celebrated his harvest-borne last week, regaled his friends with wine made from perfectly ripe grapes of the present year's growth. The local traditions made no men tion of wine having ever been made at so early a period, and accordi , gly it was resolved to perpetuate the mernot y f this unusual occurrence by drawing up a proces-verbal of the event, which was signed by the local authorities and consigned to the archives of the commune. TURNOUT OF MILL OPERATIVES AT MANCHESTER. —The self-actor minders employed at the Holt Town Mill, Manchester, have turned out in consequence of the small pay they receive. A placard which they have issued, ask ing the public to give them their sympathy and support, states that their pay was one shilling per day; and that sum was insufficient to procure them the bare necessaries of life; and that after they had turned out, they applied t ) the Board of Guardians for relief, whereupon their employers saw the guardians and prevented any relief be ing given. ANCIENT ORDER OF FORESTERS.—HIGH COURT MEETING, SIIREWSBURY.—The annual meeting of the de legates, now sitting, yesterday morning voted £5OO towards the relief of the distress in the cotton districts, in which locality they have numerous courts. SOUTH STAFFORDSHIRE RAILWAY.—The ad journed half-yearly meeting of this company was held yes terday at the Euston Station, Mr. Moors in the chair. The secretary having read the minutes of the previous meet ing, declaring the dividend, which were confirmed, the chairman said his duty on this occasion was simply to lay before them an abstract of the accounts of the company. These showed that the total expenditure to June 1862, was £1,395,399 ls. Bd., and that the general balance of revenue account was £65,77 2 is. Bd. He would move that the ab. stract of accounts be received and adopted. The motion having been seconded was agreed to, and the proceedings terminated. THE CABMEN.—Last evening s crowded meeting of cabmen was hold at the White Swan, Highbury, to take into consideration the arbitrary laws under which they now laboured, and resolutions on the subject passed at meetings of the east and south London cabmen. After various per sons had addressed the meeting, the following resolution was carried :—" That this meeting being of opinion that nothing ought to be done with regard to altering the Act of Parliament by any one part of London alone ; therefore, we do heartily concur with the drivers of the south-east, and Clerkenwell, and do hereby appoint four delegates to co-operate with them to carry out the object of holding a midday meeting at Exeter hall, when the delegates will lay before the meeting the best remedy." The delegates were then appointed, and a vote of thanks having been passed to the chairman the meeting separated shortly after midnight. REGISTERED LETTERS FOR TASMANlA.—llence forward a letter or a packet of printed papers addressed to Tasmania may be registered on the application of the per son posting it, provided the postage, together with a registration fee of sixpence, be paid in advance. THE MARRIAGE CEREMONY.—Is not the whole programme admirably arranged for carrying out the prin ciple of female ascendancy end making a man feel particu larly small ? If ever a man can thoroughly appreciatj the personal application of Hamlet's r emark, "I could be bounded in a nut-shell," it is on this day of martyrdom, incorrectly called "the hap piest day of his life." A wedding is a grand female triumph, in which all the women present virtually join in saying to the bride, "Remember you are a woman. England expects you will do your duty. Keep the man down." If the bride's thoughts were uttered, they would run thus : Look at me, my fellow-women, and applaud me. lam going to be married. A man is leading me—that is the phrase—in reality, lam leading him to the altar. I have inveigled this man. He is tne captive, not of my bow and my spear, but of arts and machinations. Come and see the sacrifice completed. The formula is that I submit myself to him, that my husband is to rule over me. Do the pro ceedii,gs look like this ? Are the coaches, the bridesmaids, the company, the breakfast, the parade, the publicity, the fuse,the man's choice ? Does he look as if he took a pride inthese things ? Are the preparations calculated to inflate him with vanity?"—" Ike Last Days of a Bachelor," by J. APGrigor Allan. The inmates of a house in the Rue Montagne- Ste.-Genevieve were last night alarmed by cries of murder proceeding from an apartment occupied by a young mason named M---- and his wife. One of the lodgers and a sergeant de ville, who had heard the cries, almost immedi ately entered the apartment, and found M— bleeding profusely from a wound in the head. He stated that he had been attacked by a man whom he had for some time suspected of an intrigue with his (M—'s) wife; and that he had just found him concealed in the apartment, and bad been wt unded by him. The sergeant de ville then searched the house, and having found the gallant in a dark closet, he took both him and the woman in custody to the Pre fecture. M --'s weunds are not dangerous—Galignani. The Civil Tribunal yesterday gave judgment in an action brought by a man named Dumont against a pastry cook named Gru under the following circumstances : —On the 30th April, 1856, the defendant and his journey men were dining in the back shop, when, from a noise heard in the chimney they fancied it was on fire. One of his apprentices, young Dumont, immediately knelt down to look up the chimney, and while in that position the defen dant laid his hands on the young man's shoulders and pressed so heavily that the young man sank down with a ery of pain, From that time young Dumont suffered so much pain from the loins that he was unable to work, and slier languishing two years, died at last in the Hospital Lariboisiere, The plaintiff then brought an action for da mages, and the Tribunal ordered an inquiry to be instituted, which result e d i n esta bli s hi ng t h e f act that the young man's death was caused b y the defen d ant ' s imprudence, though there was no reason to supppse he had meant to injure him. Th e T r ib una l, i n g i v ing judgment, declared that, although th e d e f en d an t did not intend to hurt the youth, I.:`,e had b een gui l ty accordingly c on d emne d hi m t o pay the plaintiff 2 3000 f, damageo.—Galignani. of duo want of precau tion, and ROYAL ITAMIT OPERA, REVIVAL OF " MASANIELLO.' "There is nothing," said Mirabeau, "that is more prolific than revolution," and very soon, in proof of his words, the Revolution gave to France every variety of offspring. It gave an Empire — gave a code —gave a literature—gave a fashion — gave all manner of social benefits—and at length it gave an Opera! Warfare, arts, enjoyments, books, had all been the medium of its sentiment, and at last it inspired music. The world has long since forgotten that such was the origin of " Maaa niello." Though it was not born of the Republic, but long after wards—ot the Restoration—it was one of the products of the reaction that was then re animating France,:and which culminated at length in the three days of July. Many more notable signs of the times doubtless characterised that epoch, but none that were more distinctive. What Beranger was doing with his songs, and Paul Louis Courier with his pamphlets, Eugene Auber—a staunch republican—who shared to the full their bitter sense of the degradation of his country—tried to do on the lyric stage. True, the scene was laid in Naples, but that artifice was as obvious as was that of the renowned Lesage, who painted the French Court and noblesse in the immortal pages of his "Gil Bias," and in order to escape the Bas tille threw the story into Spain. Everyone who has listened to Auber's music must have felt it was intensely French. At the time that it was written the very heart of France was beating in it. Mark its mingled gloom and gaiety, its quick impulsive spirit, its eager love of pleasure, its smouldering sense of wrong, its strong domestic affection, its merciless thirst for vengeance. The very form in which it appeared, which was almost that of a ballet opera, by its more vivid and striking spec tacle, made a more vigorous appeal to the masses. We, who were in Paris in our youth, when this opera was at its height, can well remember the furore when its kindling and melodious strains supplied the lips of the Parisians with the best expression of their wishes. On every boulevard and in every cafe, after a political allusion the Barcarole especially would be hummed with a significance, which showed that Auber, who had so deeply shared the popular yearning of his time, had contributed not a little to sustain and to augment it. Masaniello, therefore, which must be regarded as the opera of the Revolution, achieved the highest success in Paris, but it paid the penalty elsewhere. In every absolutist capital it was indignantly for bidden. Its sounds were wholly unknown in Vienna, Berlin, or St. Petersburg; and of course, least of all, at Naples. To England only it could come with perfect safety and acceptance—England, asylum of all fugitives, whether republican or Royal. Accordingly, in 1823, it found a home at Drury-Lane, and in a manner that was not un worthy of its claims and reputation. Whilst Braham, still in his strength, could sing its music in a manner that not even Nourrit could excel, there was Stanfield to paint i s scenes and Wallaek to devise its groupes, with a mastery of taste and spirit that made this reproduction quite an epoch in our stage history. Since then this noble opera, destined, we suppose, with the growth of Liberalism, to make the tour of Europe—of course it has been played at Naples—and Garibaldi has had a box— has been constantly given in England, where its undying force and sweetness, and its picturesque vivacity must ever make it welcome, however indif ferent we may be, happily, to its political signifi. cance. We can remember two revivals of this work which are distinctive. One by Laporte at Covent garden in 1833, when it was done as a ballet-opera-- simply serious action and chorus; and another at the same theatre in 1849, when Mr. Gye re vived it in its entirety, and for the first time on our Italian stage. Justly great as was the impression he created by that production, we hazard little in saying that the revival of last evening is likely to be the more eminent. With only one or two defects in it, which are easily re movable, this is one of the most vivid and superb presentments which he has yet bestowed on our Italian stage. Whether for its vigour, grace, or reality, it is equally remarkable. An entire pic ture such as we could see on no other boards than his, and having seen, are not likely, whatever our experienee, to forget. Foremost among its distinc tions stands the performance of Signor Mario, whose hero fisherman must now be numbered among his many great impersonations. Whilst it has all the manliness, which serves as a shell to the simple tenderness of the character—the finer sense of a natural buoyancy shaded by personal and pubic wrong as, in the case of his sister and his country, is mingled with it up to a point that is just as true as it is delightful. Nor are we much disposed to mur mur if he invests the whole conception with an uncon scious amount of grace which renders it somewhat more ideal than exact. But if all the scenes with Fenella were marked by the tenderest feeling, and the rescue of Alphonso in the cottage displayed an equal amount of spirit, it was unquestionably in the last scence in which he made his great impression, which, brief as it is, afforded him scope to show the power of a true artist. Here the vividness with which he marked the ebb and flow of life in his veins—the poison like his royal enemies combating a vigor, hard to subdue—the momentary strength flashing up to a gaiety which faded almost as it came— were an evidence of power that was quite as rare as it was impressive. His execution of the music was of a piece with all this excellence. His delivery of the Barcarole, it is needless to say, was absolutely perfect, but his share iu the passionate duett with Pietro, in which he paints with equal vigour his patriotic and fraternal feeling, was admirable in the extreme, whilst second to none in merit was his delivery of the well kno vn " L'air da Sommeil" in the fourth act, by the side of his sleeping sister— the infinite tenderness of which it would not be easy for us to describe. Signor Graziana was the next important feature of the performance, whose Pietro is the very best without exception we have ever witnessed on any stage. The dogged and determined spirit with which he infused this revo lutionist was one of the most forcible pieces of nature which we have seen for a long time, and when on his leader's apparent treachery by the rescue of Alphonso—he first at tempts to stab him when on horseback —springing at him like a panther, and then having poisoned him follows him to watch the growth of death in him— his acting had a reality that place it far above any recent effort of the kind. Equally good was his share in the music—and more especially his delivery of the Barcarole of the last act Ve come ii vento, in which his superb voice and vigorous feeling produced the best possible effect. The Alphonso by Signor Neri-Baraldi was also a very manly and judicious effort. The Elvira, however, of Madlle. Marie Battu was a very in ferior performance. Her meagre voice, her inani mate manner, and her very uncertain intonation, allowing her but little claim to be a member of this theatre. Nor can we praise as warmly as we wish, the Fenella of the evening, who, charming as she is as a dancer, wanted the force and animation requisite to the rendering of the dumb girl. These are the sole defects of the performance,which, as we have said, are easily removed. To everything e l se we can ouly give one general term of praise. The choruses, so prominent a feature of this opera: were sung to absolute perfection, more especially the exquisite prayer, Auber's greatest achieve meat- The fuse en scene—under Mr. Harris, was actual life itself. The various groups of the various scenes, whether drinking, dancing, or marketting, doing it all with a reality that seemed to imply it was their only task—the scenery, by Messrs. Beverlev,Grieve, and Telbin, presented some of the loveliest and most striking efforts of their pencils, whilst the band, as usual under Mr. Costa, had all that force and exactness which permit ns only to e njoy and praise. the overture, we need not add, was vehemen'ly encored. The house was very full, and the satin faction of the audience was testified very loudly to this admirable revival, which gives so just a c.imax to an extraordinary season.

Intelligence received here from Teheran, by telegraph via Bagdad, state that Dost Mahomed captured Furrah upon the 6th of July. He left a garrison i❑ that city and marched upon Herat, which has received reinforce-ments. TURIN, AUG. 7. The Discussione of to-day says:— " Up to the present moment Garibaldi refuses to yield to the King, declaring, however, at the same time, that he will not fight against Italians, " The Royal troops follow him at a little distance, avoiding a collision. " Garibaldi's object seems to be to reach some part of the coast, and to embark there.' The rumours of a project being on foot for a de monstration at Rome gain consistence. WARSAW, AUG. 7. To-day, after the Marquis Wielopolski had quit ted his carriage, and was about to ascend the great staircase of the palace, in which the Financial Com mission holds its sittings, a pistol was fired at him. The perpetrator was seized, but his name is un- known. The Marquis has not been injured. TURIN, AUG. 7. In the Chamber of Deputies to-day, Signor Minghetti requested the Government to communi cate to the Chamber any information they had received from Sicily. Signor Ratszzi replied that no positive informa tion had been received, but as soon as any arrived it would be published. There was, he said, no foundation for the alarming news which had been circulated. There had been no engagement between the Royal troops and the Garibaldians, and he did not believe that any such engagement would take place. Signor Ratazzi further said : " It does not result from the information received that General Garibaldi has refused to liszen to the voice of the King. " It is not known what position he occupies. " Our troops are all loyal, and their spirit is excellent ; while, on the other hand, desertions have taken place in the camp of General Garibaldi. " The public must be on its guard against false rumours." Signor Sineo then made a speech approving the conduct of Garibaldi. Signor Ratazzi replied with much warmth, and was loudly cheered. The discussion on the Neapolitan Railway Bill was continued to day in the Chamber of Deputies. A letter from Signor Bastogi was read, in which he agrees to accept all the amendments proposed by the committee on the project of M. de Roths child. FRANCE.

A letter from Rome, of the let, says :—" At first no one at Rome would give credit to the news of Garibaldi's intended attempt, but repeated de spatches and the most precise information at last compelled the French authorities to pay attention to it. Assistance was immediately demanded from the Emperor's Government, and a squadron of six French line-of-battle ships soon appeared off Civita Vecchia. Every military precaution was adopted in the fear of an attack, and a movement of concen tration took place. All the commandants of the Italian troops on the Tuscan frontier—at Grossetto, Talemone, &c., were warned to actively watch the movements of the Garibaldian bands, and lastly, in order to reoccupy all the points which had been left without garrisons in eonsequence of the concen tration of troops, reinforcements were applied for from France. The Papal Government represented that, in the present state of agitation,,the places abandoned by the French troops might become the scenes of disturbance and manifestations, but the answer was that in case of an attack against the Pontifical frontier, Garibaldi would not have a less force than from 12,000 to 15,000 volunteers, and that the French companies, isolated as they were, would be unable to defend themselves against so large a force. The French authorities, therefore, thought it their duty to give a simple piece of advice to the Pontifical Government, and pointed out to it the danger which the Papal soldiers might incur if sent to the extreme frontier to repel the first efforts of the enemy. That advice, however, was disre garded, and the Papal ZJuaves are to occupy Ceprano, near Frosinone." CAPTAIN CO WPER COL ES AND .HIS SHIELD SHIPS. Captain Coles has addressed the following letter to a contemporary :—" The models of shield ships exhibited by me in the International Exhibition admit of from 7to 8 deg. depression. In two this is obtained by the deck on each side of the cupola sloping at the necessary angle to admit of the re quired depression ; in the other two it is obtained by the centre of the deck on which the cupola is surmounted being risen sufficiently to enable the shot, when the gun is depressed, to pass clear of the outer edge of the deck. I enclose you the drawing, published by me in 1860, of the midship section from which these models were made. It also gives a section of the Warrior (Fig. 5), by which you wil l see that, supposing the guns of each to be 10 ft. out of water, and to have the usual depression of guns guns on from her the navy (7 deg.), that the Warrio r ' s the broad Aide will throw the shot 19 ft . further,from her side than the shield ship with her guns piac d in the centre, that being the d istance of the latter from the edge of the ship, and thus, a greater ad us, with the same depression, the shield ship will have vantage, which I con sider t . o_bPanimportant merit former deck was ilt, but of my invention.

C on- INDIA. By the arrival of t►he Overland Mail we have re ceived journals and correspondence from Calcutta to July 1, and Bombay, July 12. We make the following extracts from the sum mary of the Bombay Gazette:— " The intelligence of the death of Lord Canning was received in Bombay by telegram on the sth of July. The intelligence casts a gloom over every community that it reaches in India ; it causes grief to the heart of every individual capable of knowing and judging of the worth of the late Viceroy. We know not what measures may be adopted by the Government of India in relation to it. There is a general feeling in this part of the country that the Viceroy should appoint a season of public mourn ing on account of this national loss and bereave ment. The magnanimity of Lord Canning, his calm stability of judgment in the midst of the most biassing influences, his justice in the midst of mighty maze of events which exposed him to the severest reproach for its evenhanded administra tion, his wise acts and measures of policy, which have done such inestimable good to India, and have fairly started her on her career as a nation, will never be forgotten, nor cease to be extolled by the people of India. It has been decided that the prize taken at Dhar is to be distributed among the actual captors—the officers and men composing the Malwa Field Force under Major-General (now Sir Charles) Stewart, K.C.B. The prize is worth £lOO,OOO, and the claimants are very few in number. The man who was for some time supposed to be the Nana Sahib has died in prison. An order h3d just been given for his release. CALCUTTA. The following items of intelligence are taken from the Calcutta Englishman:— The new High Court of Calcutta was inaugurated on the Ist of July. On the previous day the Supreme Court ceased to exist. I❑ notifying the fact, the Chief Justice observed that he had only seen that morning, for the first time, the charter un der which the new High Court was constituted. It appeared altogether to aboiish the present prac tice of the Court, and to tend to assimilate its form of procedure to that now in force in the Nlotussil Courts. The Advocate-General, having very justly complained that, while he himself had only had a cursory glance at the charter, the bar and attorneys were entirely ignorant of its pro visions, said he feared much confusion would arise at first; it had, therefore, been determined that the Court should not sit for the despatch of business till time had been allowed for framing rules for the admission of practitioners and the constituion of a bar. A report had reached from Nepaul, and from a reliable source, that the notorious rebel leader Feroze Shah had been killed some six weeks bile-t by some Ghoorka robbers, he being then wander. ing in the Nepaul hills in the guise of a f A quir with only two or three companions.
