He rejects the heavy floating batteries, on what appear to be ample grounds, altogether; and insists on spending the money on ships, of which the first requisite shall be speed, the next a more powerful artillery than the enemy, and the next protection for machinery, guns, and men. Captain CoLEs' shields b e would decidedly confine to smaller vessels, such af) could carry at most two of them. He gives to Mr. R. L. STEPHENS, of New York, the credit of being the true inventor of shot-proof ships, and to the EMPEROR that of being their in ventor, so far as being the first to reduce them to practice, though it seems that Mr. F. LLOYD, of our Adasiralty, first suggested one four-inch thick plate, instead of several inch plates bolted together. Mr. RUSSELL gives a sad account of the way in which our Admiralty obstructed the commencement of iron ships, and mentions that Sir JOHN PARING TON was the first whom he could induce to apply his plans, by beginning the construction of the Warrior. It is only to be regretted that Sir JOHN wasted so much money previously, like all his pre decessors, on wooden ships and the dockyards. The Duke of SOMERSET and his Admiralty come in for little mercy. Mr. RUSSELL concludes that the "ineradicable evil now is that, where the know ledge is the power is not, and where the power is the knowledge is not." He appeals, therefore, to the House of Commons to step in. He asks it to resolve—First, to buy a fleet, not to build it in the dockyards. Secondly, that the fleet shall be built at the rate of six Warriors a year. And, thirdly, that three millions a year shall be devoted entirely to that purpose. He means, of course, not to in crease the estimates by that sum, but to determine its application. Thus, in seven years, we are to have 40 Warriors; in ten years, 60; but, if this is to be done we must give up the dockyards, and prefer getting fleets to supporting establishments.

The men who ought to know—and who do know—are beginning, effectively, to make their appeal to the public on the great question of Na tional Defence. We noticed a few days ago Sir MORTON PETO'S masterly pamphlet, in which, single-handed, he showed himself more than a match for the six Defence Commissioners, their pragmatical secretary, and their four associates; and Monday night showed very plainly that Sir MORTON had convinced the House of Commons, by the somewhat ignominious retreat of the Government respecting the Spithead forts. We have now ano ther pamphlet, a re-writing of one published a year ago, by a gentleman as conversant with shipbuild ing and dockyard works as Sir MORTON is with general engineering works. Mr. SCOTT RUSSELL, in his " Fleet of the Future" (Longmans), has ex posed the impotency and the incapacity of the Ad miralty, and shown what requires to be done so clearly, that his views need but an effective man to propound and support them in the House of Com mons, in order to render his pamphlet as practically serviceable to the country as Sir MORTON PETO'S. Every member of both Houses ought to have a Copy, and a move ought to be made on the subject this year. Mr. RUSSELL, indeed, justly observes that a body of six hundred men is not the proper one to take in hand the management of a department. or in any way to usurp the functions of the Executive ; but the sad fact is that the Duke of SOMERSET himself throws the responsibility on the House of Com mons of telling him how he is to do his work, what kind of ships he is to build, and how many of eaeh sort. His excuse, for inexcusable Admiralty de linquencies, is that the House of Common did not " press on him" to give up building wooden ships and to build iron. He and the Admiralty have no notion of leading the House, they await its instruc tions in the details of their department. The avowed maxim of their late surveyor, a good sailor, but one who boasted of his ignorance of building ships, was that we were not to lead but to follow other nations in ship-building improvements ! The grand gener4l charge against the Admiralty Mr. RUSSELL limits, in his pamphlet, to the last seven years—the years since we have had the expe rience of our Black Sea operations before Sebastopol and Kinburn. We there learned ourselves, what the Turks learned at Sinope, that shells made slaughter houses of our wooden ships, and that the entire crew, officers and all, were actually driven in a reasonable panic out of the opposite side of one of our first-rates into a steamer close by, by three horizontal shells, which actually killed eighteen men. The Congress experienced the same fate at Hampton-roads from the shells of the Merrimac. We also learned that the iron and floating batteries, even in their first imperfect construction, were absolutely uninjured under a heavy fire at Kin burn. The general charge is that, since then, since the Emperor of the FRENCH, in consequence of our common experience, immediately changed his plans, our Admiralty has spent, in the dockyards, THIRTY MILLIONS sterling, and the result has been only two seaworthy iron ships. That vast sum of money—one-eighth of the income of every Income tax payer—has been wasted, blundered away, and left us none the more secure, at the cost of one eighth of each of our incomes ! Mr. RUSSELL con trasts with the stupidity, officialism, and routine muddling away of the nation's money, the business like dockyard changes and proceedings of the EM PEROR, after the lessons taught both allies by the shells on shipboard at Sebastopol, and the iron plated batteries at Kinburn. He at once discarded the rout:ll:lists of the old school, selected the most able young man in his service, and arranged a sys tem by which, at a cost of less than we have already wasted, he will in no long time have a fine fleet of ironsides. He shown that by this time, had we used the money we have spent as well as our ally does, we might have had THREE FLEETS OF TWENTY WARRIORS EACH in the Channel, the West Indies, and the Mediterranean. Mr. RUSSELL lays down that, to effect this ob ject in the next seven years, we must make one great alteration at the Admiralty—it must devote itself to getting a Fleet, not to keeping up and 1 patronising vast establishments. The latter is the old and routine course : it involves all the plea sures and political couveniences of Government Patronage. But the ruinous fact is that the money wasted on Government establishments would itself buy us a large Fleet. We have builders who can do all the work better than the Government pos sibly can ; who now do the most skilled part of the work—the engines and other fittings—who have actually turned out of their yards the iron ships on which we now rely, and who are competent, on the ati - mouy of Mr. RUSSELL, who names the places where they can be built, to turn out twelve War riors every two y ears , or at th e rate o f one every twomonths, how grossly the Duke of So the contracts w hi ch la . i., this point Mr. RUSSELL shows SOMERSET mismanaged e did make for several vessels. It is for the Duke to answer Mr. RUSSELL if he can. It will not do to ignoreifMr.writesAnd what comes from " such a man" — We suppose We ought to say "such RUSS ELL Were not perfectly intoeon believing vin is o thatt that informed r ' o '. l -7: what if he can not answer him, the inevitable conclusion he has at the same tim e mu ddled a way public money, and duped the country be was doing more with it than he actually did . " Buy your Fleet" is our author's advice ; this is the only way you get good engines for your ships, and it is the only way you will get good ships to put them into. The " Establishments" had succeeded last April in getting r d of four millions of money in the year ; th ey have turned out the keel and some frames of one Achilles with the money ! Pri vate yards would have given us for it eight War riors, all comp:etely found. Mr. RUSSELL strongly objects to conversion. He gives a ludicrous, but practical account of what it is. He affirms, as a builder, that when all is done, A document has recently made its appearance that we should immensely like to have translated faithfully into the most elegant Japanese. More than anything perhaps that has yet come under the notice of their Excellencies, the Ambassadors from the Court of the TYCOON at Nangasaki, it would— or we are very much mistaken—be calculated to astonish the natives in their remote fatherland. It is a complimentary address at once of farewell and of acknowledgment recently transmitted from Algeria to "the great and glorious Emperor, the ornament of the highest of thrones, the most august of CASARS," his Majesty the Emperor NAPOLEON 111 ! It has been add-essed to his Im perial MAJESTY, this extraordinary epistle of " the lowly son before GOD," the CHIEK SI-OTHMAN, son of SID EL HADY HADJI, EL BEKRI EL TARGUI, and his nephews, MAHOMME and MAHOMMED, Marabouts of the land of the Touareg. It is one of the most amazing outpourings of adulation that perhaps the most flowery of Oriental scribes ever indulged in. Not so much homage as prostration —grovelling in the dust L-licking the soles of the EMPEROR'S boots—performing salaam in the gutter: and evidently expecting all the while that this kind of profound self-humiliation must be agreeable to the august personage before whose throne the CHIEK SI-OTHMAN performs kotoo with such lowly genuflections. Saith the Sheik and his associate Chiefs from the land of the Touareg:—" It has been given to us to know that your MAJESTY and your august Consort have received from Heaven a distinction and a natural goodness as elevated as your fortunes. You have overwhelmed us by your kindness, and enchained us by your gifts. There fore shall we always bear witness of the kind man ner in which our presence was received. May the very High give you a fitting recompense, for He alone is sufficiently powerful to give it ! As to our selves, we have been struck, and, we may say, termed at the greatness of your empire ; we are of a country isolated from all others, and had never presented ourselves, nor our fathers, nor any • of our ancestors, at the court of any Sovereign, for never has King had any right over us, and you are the first Sovereign before whom we have appeared." Certainly, for the dignity of human nature, it is to be hoped that his Imperial Majesty of FRANCE may be the last Sovereign, to the footstool upon whose dais the Marabouts of Touareg may approach with such evidences of volunteered abasement. Decidedly the oddest thing about the whole of this prepos terous communication is the child-like acknow ledgment made to the Emperor NAPOLEON by the CHIEK SI-OTHMAN, and his companions the other Touareg Marabouts, immediately they have set foot again upon the soil of Africa, after their recent visit to his Imperial MAJESTY'S European dominions : " We regret infinitely," naively con fesses the Touareg Chieftain, " we regret infinitely that we did not bring with us our finest arms and our best clothes to be presented in to your Majesty ! " If Mr. MACDONALD would but kindly forward a literal translation of the whole of this egregious add ress from the CHIEK SI-OTHMAN to the Emperor NAPOLEON 111.—if Mr. MACDONALD would but forward uu an exact version of It in Japanese to their Excellencies the Japanese Ambassadors, it would certainly be worthy of preservatirn very carefully among the documents those ambassadors will take back with them, to be placed among the Tycoon's archives in the City of Nangasaki. There would not, thereupon, be the smal lest probability, we conjecture, of the diplomatic agents of the Tycoon emulating, in any way, the extravagant flatteries poured forth in such nauseating abundance by the Marabouts of Touareg at the feet of an European sovereign. The Japanese, at least, have more self respect, than thus to kiss the dust before a fellow mortal, even though that fellow mortal be the chosen chief of 40,000,000 of one of the most riighly civilised peoples upon the earth, and the master of 600,000 soldiers as dauntless as they are disciplined. More Free Speaking in the French Imperial Chamber of Deputies ! Ca va bien! M. JULES FAVRE yesterday took occasion to vindicate the newly recognised right of free debate and untram melled discussion in the Napoleonian Legislature by enveighing, in the strongest possible terms, against the further prosecution of the Mexican expedition. Mr, ROEBUCK could not speak more boldly from below the gangway, Mr. HORSMAN could not ex • press opinions more thoroughly independent from the back benches of the House of Commons, upon any question whatever that could be ventilated within the walls of that popular branch of our own Legislature down at Westminster, than M. JULES FAVRE took occasion to do yesterday from the Tribune of the Chamber oF Deputies—and this, moreover, upon the delicate question of the military expedition recently sent out to Mexico by order of the Emperor's Govern ment. To the prosecution of that enterprize the Government of NAPOLEON 111., one would say, is as fairly committed by this time as well could be. The v ery f act of the unsuccessful character of its to dete rm i ne his commencement tends, we mi g ht reasonably suppose, until his plans th.• thing like a n a true, no doubt, that FRENcs has evide r n e e MAJESTY to a resolute persistence in it. At any r ate, until the tide should have turned, ceodulmdorbee thanonce his readi ness to withdraw from a difficult position—from a dilemma, in short—precisely at the critical moment and without any visible derogation from his perso nal dignity. The Peace of Villafranca, it will be sufficient to remember, followed not so very long after the issuing of that famous Proclamation at Milan, in which the Liberator of Lombardy talked about becoming Italy " Free from the Alps to the Adriatic." Even there, however—NAPOLEON, if he had not emancipated,ltaly from the Alps to the Ad riatic, had, at any rate, beyond a doubt of it, libe rated from the thraldom of the Austrian rule that beautiful province of Lombardy, which, with Imperial magnificence, he at once handed over to the King VICTOR EMMANUEL. But—even then—the grace of the whole of that memorable pro ceeding was sadly marred directly afterwards by the transference to his Imperial Majesty of France of those old appanagcs of the Crown of Sardinia— the province and city of Nice, together wth the Niz zards peopling them—besides the picturesque and mountainous province of Savoy, with all its brave and freeborn race of Savoyards ! Strange to tell —the most illustrious among all Savoyards living (or even dead, we may say) being the Liberator and chosen chief of the Italians General GARIBALDI. It may be quite safely and confidently predicated, we presume, in regard to the present expedition undertaken by the French troops in Mexico, in compliance with the orders of the Emperor NAPO LEON 111., that it has been resolved upon by his Imperial Majesty for the currying out of a certain object, and also (judging at least from the Italian antecedents just alluded to) for the acquisition of— what shall we call it ? Well,—a consideration ! Whatever the object in view, whatever the " consideration," we may be quite certain of this—that each has all along been distinctly there, in the mind of that inscrutable potentate. NA POLEON 111. does not allow the blood of his soldiers to be shed for nothing. Whenever he embarks upon a war-like enterprise, we may reasonably take it for granted at once that he has not vague inten tions of allowing the history of the campaign thus voluntarily inaugurated, to have, for its last chapter, a mere chapter of accidents. However compara tively small the number of troops sent out to Mexico, they are not sent out there, we may rest assured, to meet with a discomfiture, and then come home ingloriously. At the same time—while we cannot, for an instant, anticipate any such modification of the imperial design in regard to the Mexican Expedition as M JULES FAVRE avows to be in every way so desirable —we cannot but exult, as s pectators of what is occurring just now in France and also in Mexico— we cannot but exult, we repeat, in the fact of a man as eminent as M. JULES FAVRE having spoken out as boldly as he did from the Tribune of the Chamber of Deputies, and this, moreover, as re cently as only yesterday. The unfortunate fortifications , the more they are 1 discussed the worse they fare. The Lords had the ir 1 debate on them last night; a nd no impartial read er will dery that the Earl of AIRLIE and Earl GREY had far the best of the argument. We only hope the Lords will be as watchful over preventing use less national Expenditure, ab they were in prevent ing for one year the sacrifice of national Revenue in the case of the Paper Duty ; and if so, they will net be very ready to accept any bill which the Go vernment may force through the Commons to pro vide money for the fortifications which have been so unadvisedly begun. In the arguments in the Commons on Monday, it was not remarkable that hardly any one WhS brought forward which told at all with the House, except the appeal to consist ency—the argumentunz ad hominenz. The House had once voted for the fortifications—could it stul tify itself by declining to continue its vote? We quite agree with Earl GREY, that so far from stultifying itself, it would do itself honour by de , clining to continue in a course proved to be extra-' vagant ; and, we fear, worse than extravagant—we mean positively injurious to our means of defence, and advantageous to an enemy. We have all pro per respect for a Royal Duke, and the Duke of CAMBRIDGE is as sensible a Duke as most Dukes of his family, but we think the opinion of General BURGOYNE, who had not to quit the Crimea, and who could not be dispensed with there, worth, cer tainly, many times over that of the Duke of CAM BRIDGE. Now this veteran military engineer is decidedly against the works on Portsdown Hill. He denies their advantage to a moderate army de fending Portsmouth. He maintains that fixed works there would inform an enemy, previously, of precisely what he had to meet with, and that he could make his preparations accordingly. The General him himself would much rather trust to works thrown up at the time of waich the enemy could have no previous information. , His experience of what TODLEBEN did at Sebastopol showed what extemporized works can do in a very similar posi tion. Indeed all of us recall to recollection the place made almost impregnable in the face of two armies. Lord GREY also very properly laid stress on the other general consideration affecting our means of defence—that of wasting our accumulations of wealth. Even Lord PALMERSTON and Sir G. C. LEWIS must confess that the question of the utility of forts and fixed fortifications is now in a very un certain state. If they will not concede to us that the preponderance of the argument is in favour of ships versus forts, they may yet concede that we have so many first-class authorities on our side, and so many weighty arguments, that it is at least reasonable to suspend a course of action which ' saddles both us and posterity with burdens grievous to be borne. When we have such names as Gene ral BURGOYNE, Sir FREDERIC SMITH, Colonel BOXER, and Captain COLES on our side, to mention no others, it does seem too bad to expend millions, which can never be retrived, on the works which they condemn. These millions are the wealth of the country. They ought to circulate, increasing its wealth, and thereby better qualifying the coun try to provide in the hoar of need the sinews of war. Lord PALMERSTON once, in the heyday of his popularity, and when his own Chancellor of the Exchequer would not do it, succeeded in persuad ing a young and green Parliament to vote the eleven millions—for what, for purely unproductive works—for works which yield no revenue; and the money spent on which would permanently impo verish the country to that extent. Unless the forts and fortifications are a necessity, they diminish, by every million they cost, the capacity of the nation to meet the charges of a war should one arise. Above all things, the state of trade calla loudly on Lord PALMERSTON to stay his fortification ex penditure. It is somewhat like mockery of the sufferings of Lancashire to go on with these costly inutilities, which, if they could be afforded at another time, certainly cannot now. It is scarely possible, notwithstanding the happy results of the French treaty, that the diminished trade with America and the " cotton famine" in the North should not tell on the means of popular consump tion, and of course on the Customs and Excise. What the loss to the revenue will be, it is impossible to tell. Manchester men have estimated it at ten millions; but, even at half that, it will be a dam aging thing for Ministers to come before Parlia ment next spring with the statement that they have' been raising £1,200,000 this year for forts, when they could not but know that the revenue must so largely fail them, We will not now re-enter upon the general cha racter of the best defences for the country. We have seen or heard nothing whatever to rebut the position chosen by even the Government men in the last evidence taken by the commissioners, that whatever the utility of forts there can be no ques tion that ships ought to come first. No one can doubt that, in the event of a war, they must be wanted. Without going more into detail, there fore, here, the obvious conclusion is that the forts can well afford to wait, since they are second to the ships, on which we are spending and have spent money enough. We hope the Government, there fore, will have the moral courage to come forward with the avowal that the altered opinions and the altered circumstances of the country—we should add, and the facts which have recently come to light—require an entire suspension of the fortifica tion scheme. Such an announcement of repentance would be far more honourable than proud official obstinacy. W. S. WOODIN. Our country cousins and our friends from the continent, evening after evening, are in the habit of finding a refreshing little oasis in their dusty and foot-sore wanderings about this wilderness of Lon don and Westminster. About eight of the clock they turn into it from the roar of the Strand—that great thoroughfare which may be regarded as the mystical bond connecting together those same Siamese Twins among the cities of the earth— London and Westminster. Guided by a happy whim, out of that turmoil of the Strand, advancing but a few paces down King William-street, turning to the right through the open doorway that whosoever enters in the dumps is absolutely certain to leave laughing—the Visitor in search of amusement, no matter whether he be a " Young Man from the Country," or " Any Other Man," has reason to congratulate himself upon his choice before he has been very long seated in the Polygraphic Hall, into which Hall a lucky chance may in a happy hour have directed his footsteps. Why —we London habitués know perfectly well. The Stranger, though be jumps to the conclusion often with an instantaneous sense of exhilaration—more frequently arrives at the not unwelcome know ledge of the fact by a series of almost imper ceptible gradations. Once settled in his place—no matter whether that place may be among the stalls, the reserved seats, or the boxes—he finds at every turn that his comfort has been sedulously cared for by his Entertainer. A profusion of mirrors cover the walls of the little theatre after that sparkling Parisian fashion which tends so much to the adornment of every cafe along the Boulevards f►•om the Place de la Madeleine to the Place de la Bastille. There are flowers in abundance dispersed in grace ful vases or tazzas in front of the proscenium. There are pleasant sprinklings and tinklings of dropping water—there is a sense of delicate fragrance in the air—it is Rimmel's fairy-like device of little odour breathing fountains ! There are new decorations visible here and there through out the whole interior. A better arrangement has been contrived for the musical accompaniment that occasionally enlivens the monologue of the speaking, dancing, and singing Polyphonist. As a whole the entertainment itself is, of course, the same as last year's—the same, that is, with a diffe rence ! Two or three new Characters are intro duced, and one marvellous Imitation. The last mentioned being no other than what we may call, with perfect truth, a veritable fac simile, or alter ego of Mr. Sothern as my Lord Dundreary ! His lordship it is, rather, we should say, in propria per sona—with all his elegance, with all his stutter, and with all his unconscionable stupidity. The affluent, slightly peg-toppish trousers—the unexceptionable coat the long trailing half-whisker-half moustache—the hair parted from the centre of the forehead up to the crown of the head in the very straightest of sheep walks—the eye-glass perpetu ally on service—are none among them more true to the reality than the h-h-hesitating, st-stammer ing voice, than the in souciant and ineffable expres sion of the whole countenance, than the little pre posterous tripping run of the whole figure, or than the everlasting baulk of that oft-threatened, but never accomplished, sneeze ! Mr. Woodin has certainly a knack beyond that even of Munden—whom Charles Lamb describes as dipping for faces. Mr. Woodin dips not only for faces, but with them for figures, for voices, for complete and, some of them (as in the instance of Lord Dundreary) most complex in dividualities. To Mr. Woodin, we should imagine, the old familiar axiom, about two heads being better than one, must appear not simply trite but ridicu lous. His heads, apparently, are about as nume rous as those of a Scotch Divine's prelection. Our Polyphonist may, in effect, with confidence be pro nounced—a very Proteus, a very Politician, a very Human Chameleon in his change-ability. Him self, however (as a Polyphonist), we would none of us, far an instant, wish to change for anything but—exactly what he is! Namely, less of an Actor than of a whole Company ! And " capital com pany " too ! Whatever he may be in private life, certainly we must say that of him, whenever he is before the public, in front of the footlights! Wnat with his flexible features, and elastic figure, and variable voice, and his wonderful adaptability, in regard to air, and gait, and carriage, and general deportment--however much he may imitate others, he himself, we take it, may fairly be pronounced inimitable. MANSION-HOUSE.--The Lady Mayoress gave a ball at the Mansion. house, on Tuesday evening, to a distin guished company. The invited guests, about 1,•500 in num ber, included the foreign ambassadors, a very large propor tion of the nobility, the Royal Commissioners and jurors for the International Exhibition, many foreign visitors of dis tinction, all the members of the Court of Aldermen, and a large circle of private friends. The company began to assemble about 10 o'clock. All the state apartments were thrown open on the occasion, the Egyptian-hall being set apart for dancing, which was continued until some time after midnight. AN AMBITIOUS BUG.—The following appears in an advertisement in yesterday morning's J unes :—" I, Nor. folk Howard, heretofore called and known by the name of Joshua Bug, late of Epsom, in the county of Surrey, now of Wakefield, in the county of York, and landlord of the Swan Tavern in the same county, do hereby give notice, that on the 20th day of this present month of Juno, for and on behalf of myself and heirs, lawfully begotten, I did wholly abandon the use of the surname of Bug, and as sumed, took, and used, and am determined at all times here after, in all writings, actions, dealings, matters, and things, and upon all other occasions whatsoever, to be distin guished, to subscribe, to be called and known by the name of Norfolk Howard only. I further refer all whom it may concern to the deed poll under rny hand and seal, declaring that I choose to renounce the use of the surname of Bug, and that I assume in lieu thereof the above surnames of Norfolk How ard, and also declaring my determination, upon all occasions whatsover, to be called and distinguished exclusively by the said surnames of Norfolk Howard, duly enrolled by me in the High Court of Chancery.— Dated this 23d day of June, 1862.—Norfolk Howard, late Joshua Bug." GALLANT CAPTURE.—The capture of a notorious burglar took place at Southsea, near Portsmouth, on Wed nesday, and is somewhat remarkable for the determined spirit which was displayed by the captor. At the eastern part of Southsea, close to the sea beach, is an educational establishment, where young gentlemen aro prepared for their examinations for entry into the military and naval services, the principal of whom is Mr. Kempshead, who was formerly an inspector of Government schools. On Wednesday morning Mr. Kempshead was awoke just pre vi.us to daylight by a noise in the house, and, arming him self with a sword, left his bedroom to ascertain the cause. He soon discovered there was an intruder in the house, who, however, seemed to be making a rapid retreat, and eventually escaped from the house, and fled across Southsea common. Mr. Kernpshead's clothing was slight, an easterly wind was blowing, and the figure of the burglar was fast i„,, en i n g to view ; but the gallant principal did not hesitate many seconds before he dashed across the common in pur suit, came up with the chase alter a hard run of some mi nutes' duration, captured him, and conveyed him back in triumph, a prisoner, to the house he had taken so much trouble to enter, but had fled from F 0 precipitately. arrival home with his prisoner Mr. Kempshead sent O to the n nearest Cu and astguard station for assist ance, delivered the prisoner into their charge, by whom be was conveyed to Portsmouth gaol, where he was recognised byc ih governor (Mr. Astridge) as an old hand, whose last name was Henry Thompson, and who had recently been discharged from penal servitude. LATEST NEWS. PARIS, JUNE 26. During the discussion on extraordinary credits in the Chamber of Deputies to-day, M. Jules Favre censured the expedition to Mexico, and requested explanations, which he said public opinion awaited with ,impatience. He recalled the origin of the expedition, and cited the Convention of London limiting its extent. M. Favre also examined the phases of the expedition, the Convention of Sole dad, and the councils of the Plenipotentiaries of the three Powers which finally led to a rupture. M. Jules Favre maintained that France ought not to support Almonte, who had just revolutionised Mexico. He alluded to the affair of the lecher loan, and regretted that the Government appeared to disdain the calumnies which had been spread abroad on this subject. " I hope," continued he, " that France will not persist in claiming that 75,000,000 f., the fruit of scandalous speculations. Things have reached a point at which it is necessary that the resolutions to be taken should be explained. To my view the sole course to take compatible with the interest and the honour of the country is to treat with Mexico and withdraw, (Murmurs.) It is easy to justify this opinion. The contrary one rests on generous illusions, or a disastrous predetermined course. We have not to avenge a defeat in Mexico. Our soldiers, in the midst of insurmountable natural difficulties, have valiantly carried the name and honour of France, and they can return to their country with the glory which attaches to generous devoted ness and duty loyally accomplished. To advance would be a disastrous enterprise. We should be obliged to maintain the Government which we might etstabliah by an army of 15,000 men. The consequences of the policy we have followed in Mexico have been to compromise our relations with several Powers." M. Jules Favre concluded by expressing a hope that France will not be engaged in compromising enterprises without consulting the Chamber of Deputies. The sitting was then adjourned, and on its re assembling M. Billault commenced by describing the anarchy which has prevailed in Mexico for the last 25 years, and continued,— " /t was the robbery, pillage, and assassination of strangers that determined the three Powers to carry out the expedition. France and England were not hostile to the candidature of the Archduke Maximilian if the Mexicans chose him voluntarily. Spain would have preferred a Bourbon Prince." M. Billault established a difference between the withdrawal of the Spaniards and that of the English, who were always adverse to an expedition into the interior. He censured negotiations from which it was impossible to obtain any result, and stated that the Emperor was compelled to disavow the conven tion of Soledad as contrary to the honour of France. The explanations given to M. Barrot gave ground to hope that Spain had the same policy in Mexico as France, viz., the establishment in Mexico of a Government, either a republic or a monarchy, as the Mexicans may wish. M. Billault stated that, notwithstanding the mo mentary disagreement between the three Govern ments, they remained on good terms, and quoted, as a proof of this, the recent eloquent speech of Loris Palmerston. The Minister paid a high tribute to the character of Admiral Jurien ie la Graviere, who had repeatedly said that France wished for neither a monarchy nor a republic, but simply a good Government. NI. Billault maintained that it was incorrect that France had sent Almonte to excite a civil war. "He was only to arrive in the city of Mexico when the ballot had been opened to consult the national will. He arrived in Mexico under the protection of our flag, and committed no hostile act before the rupture of negotiations." Replying to an interuption from M. Jules Favre, NI. Billault said, that when the French flag floats in Mexico the population will, as in Italy, be called upon to express their intentions. " If," says NI. Billault, " they reply that the Juarez Government suits them, we should reply, ' Amen !'" The Minister expressed great indignation at the calumnies disseminated in the correspondence of several foreign journals relative to the aims of France. He said, " Excessive pecuniary demands have been spoken of. The committee will verify the rights of the persons claiming compensation!' He energetically repelled the counsel of M. Favre to heat with the Juarez Government, and con tinued :—" Our honour is engaged. and we must avenge the insults offered to us. O❑ the departure of our allies the Emperor sent the following in structions direct to General Lorencez It is con trary to my interest, origin, and principles to impose any Government whatever on Mexico. Let the Mexican nation choose what form of govern ment suits them. We only ask of them sincerity in the elections. We desire the happiness of that fine country under a stable and regular Govern ment.'" The rectified budget was aft3rwards voted. The Patrie asserts that orders have been sent to the seaports requesting the naval authorities to pro visionally suspend the embarkations for Mexico. The Presse says :—" It is confirmed that General Donay has rejoined General Lorencez at Orizaba, with 400 men." BELGRADE, JUNE 25. The first conference between the Special Com missioners of the Porte and the Serviau Govern ment took place to-day. The Prince required the demolition of all the fortresses. A Turkish division, with eight cannon, has ad vanced towards the frontier. JUNE 26. The Turkish Commissioner has had au audience of the Prince of Servia. The new Governor of the Citadel has arrived. The armistice is confirmed, but both sides con tinue their armaments. Public opinion is favourable to war with Turkey. SCUTARI, JUNE 25. Yesterday the whole Montenegrin force concen trated behind the village of Yenikoi, on the right bank of the Cette, was beaten by Abdi Pasha. On the first attack the Turks entered the Monte negrin works, the defenders of which they expelled after great slaughter. Several hundred Montenegrins were left on the field. The Tur ks captured two Montenegrin cannon. PARIS, JUNE 26. The Patric of this evening publishes the follow ing telegram CET TIGNE, JUNE 25. `` Yesterday a battle was fought at Raffovina Glavitza. " The Turks left 3,000 dead before the enemy's entrenchments. The IVlontenegrins had 100 killed and 200 wounded. a. The Turks were vigorously pursued, and took refuge at Sponto." The Paris papers publish the following : " RAGUSA, JUNE 25, "The Montenegrins have surprised 350 Bushi- Bazouks, near Spuz ; 300 are reported to have fallen, the remaining 50 having taken to flight. " A battle took place yesterday near Zubzi. "Dervisch Pasha has made a demonstration upon Grahovo, it is believed with the intention of con cealing his actual movements." PARIS, JUNE 26 (Evening). The following telegram has been received here: " RAGUSA, JUNE 26. " O❑ Tuesday last Abdi and Ismail Pasha at tacked the Montenegrins between Zurkownige and Lueize. " After a combat, lasting six hours, the Turks were repulsed and fled precipitately towards Spuz, with a loss of 3,000 men." MADRID, JUNE 26. Notwithstanding the suspension of the London convention, Spain is disposed to open to France the ports of the Antilles for the sick belonging to and the revictualling of the French expedition to Mexico. M. Barrot, the French Ambassador, has left for Paris. Her Majesty and the Princess are doing well. • AMERICA. ROCHE'S POINT, FRIDAY, 10 55 A.M. The Persia, from New York, on the 18th inst., is now coming in. LIVERPOOL, THURSDAY. The Liverpool, New York, and Philadelphia Company's screw steamer City of New York, Captain Petrie, from New York, on the 14th inst., arrived at the bar of the Mersey early this evening, and was detained some hours by want of water from entering the port. MEXICO. The Moniteur de l'iirmee publishes the follow ing " One of our correspondents in Mexico has sent us a bulletin, published in French by order of the Mexican Go vernment, and containing, under the title of ' Revue de la Quinzaine,' a recital of the events which have taken place horn the 28th April to the 12th May inclusively. This bulletin has been sent to all the Legations. It gives, in addition to a great number of documents already published in France, some details not yet known. We think it ad visable to publish them, quoting textually the following lines,— " ' After its retreat from Cumbres, the Mexican army fell back successively upon Yxtapa, San Augustin del Pal mar, Acatzingo, Amozoc, and Puebla. The French army tollowed slowly, in consequence of the length of its con voys. It arrived before Puebla at half-past nine o'clock on the morning of the sth, where the Mexican forces had en trenched and fortified themselves. The attack commenced without delay. The telegraph transmitted hourly the re sult of the battle to Mexico. . . " The reports of the different chefs-de-corps all render justice to the intrepidity of the French soldiers, who were cut down on the palisades, in the moats, and even on the Mexican guns. The French did not leave the field of battle till seven in the evening. They withdrew to their encampment of Los Alamos, where they passed the night. On tne 6th a new attack by the French was expected about 10 a.m. ; but the telegraph soon announced that their army, changing position, had withdrawn, with a view to entrench itself about one league from Guadeloupe on the twin hills, Amelucan and Chacapa. " ' On the Bth, at four o'clock in the evening, the French army, instead of again advancing on Puebla, as was ex pected, retired to Amozoc, where it strongly entrenched itself. On the 10th General Zaragozaprepared to advance from Puebla on Amozoc with his army reinforced, to take the offensive against the French ; but orders were sent to him from Mexico, forbidding him to carry out his plan.. . " ' Generals Marquez, Cobos, Zuloaga, Vicario, Guttie rez, Miranda, hostile to the Government of Gen. Juarez, have been beaten in every encounter; they still hold out, but must soon be crushed. The town of Cholula, situate about a league and a half from Puebla, on the Mexico side, is defended by 4,000 rebels, under the orders of Cobos.' " These extracts (says the Aloniteur de l'Armee), bor rowed from Mexican documents, appeared to us worth re producing ; Ist, because they make known the position of the Fz ench army from the sth to the 12th of May, about which hitherto nothing certain was known; 2dly, because they prove that there was no new battle on the 6th, as stated in the English newspapers ; 3dly, because they prove that Zaragoza, even with the reinforcements he had re ceived, has not dared to attack the French encempment ; 4thly, and finally, because they show that the Generals hostile to Juarez still hold out despite the successes their adversaries declare to have gained over them. " Our correspondent adds that the news of the affair of the sth had caused quite a consternation at Mexico. Juarez himself felt that France would take a striking revenge, and that the final result of the struggle must be fatal to him." The documents published by the Mexican Government give the following details respecting the conaposition of the so• called Eastern army, commanded by General Zara goza : " This army consists of three divisions, with, moreover three detached brigades of infantry, two brigades of cavalry, and one regiment of artillery. " The Ist division consists of the Ohoran and Carbajal Brigades, who, having been instructed to watch the road from Matamoras and Atlixio, took no part in the combat on the sth. Their actual strength ie not mentioned. " The 2d division consists of the Brigades Michoacan, Puebla, and Queretara, thus composed-Ist Brigade, three battalions called Fijo, rifles and chasseurs of Morelie ; 2d Brigade, 6th of the Line, 2d and 6th of Puebla ; 3d Brigade, mixed battalion of Queretara and 3d of Tolucia. The effec tive strength of this division is estimated by Zaragoza's report at 1,200 men, or 150 men per battalion. " The 3d division consists of tho following battalions, whose division per brigades is not given :-Ist and 2d Oaxaca, Morelos, Guerero, and Oaxaca sappers, the free corps of Jacitlan. " The detached brigade of General Lamadrid consists of three battalions rifieros, reform, and sappers. Gen. Zaragoza estimates its strength at 1,020 men. That of General Beri ozabal consist of the battalions Fijo of Vera Cruz, Ist and 2d Light Infantry of Toluca; together 1,000 men. " Diaz's brigade is 1, 00 strong ; the names of its batta lions are not given. The first brigade of cavalry is 300 strong. The second consists of three regiments of rolzn , a t and Oaxaca lancers and cara bi neers, a l together 550 horse. FRANCE.

M. Foucault proceeds on an truth of the traditional plan. Instead of thesides scenes represent (?theorld trees or rocks, and intended to limit the extent of the back back scene, instead also of the strips of canvass used as a bad imitation of air and clouds, he employs a large canvas itca"grmeclautijorninagnodn surface representing a panoramic view of the sky, the end of which is not perceptible in any direction either from the side-boxes or orchestra. All side-scenes are done au ay with and the landscve thus acquires its full effect. One of his scenes represents, for instance, a view of the Desert of Sa hara. Here, as far as the eye can reach, we see nothing but an interminable plain o f sand bounded by the sky ; and to i ender the co n t ras t mom striking, a date tree and plants of aloes decorate the v ery centre of the scene, while, according to the old syst , -zn, these plants would have had their place assigned to them right and left.
