the result of this debate ? The right hon. gentleman (Mr. Disraeli) had expressed a hope that he would be satisfied with the ample discussion which had taken. place. But his motion had resulted in more than this. The Foreign Secretary had admitted that as regarded the details of the peace it was a truism, and his noble friend had also ad mitted, referring to the broader question, that he saw rather more reasons against the conference than in favour of it. (Hear, hear.) Now, believing it to be the wisest policy of England not to interfere in this question, he could not but think that the debate of that evening would exercise some influence on the mind of the Govern ment respecting a conference. He (Lord Elcho) was, therefore, s atisfied with the result of the debate, and felt inc li ned to bow to the advice of the right hon. gentleman opposite not to persist in his motion. This was the 9th of August, and it would put the country to great inconvenience if so close upon the 12th there was to be a change of Government. (Laughter.) It was not his wish in pressing the motion to exhibit any hostility towards the Government. He accepted, therefore, the amendment of his hon. friend, whose speech as well as his motion he was willing to accept. The motion, tberefore, was not put. CONSOLIDATED FUND (APPROPRIATION) BILL. This bill passed through committee. The other orders of the day were then disposed of. The house adjourned at a little before 3 o'clock.

TUESDAY, AUGUST 9, 1859. Under pressure from Lord ELCHO, the Govern ment, last night, spoke at very considerable length in the House of Commons upon the great question —Whether, in the interests of Italian Liberty, England should, or should not, take part in an European Conference. "By particular desire" (of the noble lord the member for Horsham) the Oracles, not of DELPHOS, but of Downing-street, were, for one evening, not dumb. One after another they ascended the parliamentary tripod, and there spoke—as became them all, most oracularly, and as especially became them each in turn, most characteristically. Our extended report else where will sufficiently indicate at a glance the length to which the discursive discussion of yester day was carried by the leading members of the Administration. A more careful examination of these ministerial harangues will t how, according to a more strictly idiomatic meaning of the phrase, literally, " to what lengths" the leading organs of the Cabinet went last evening in the affected ardour and frankness of their explanations! Ex planations, by the way, so glaringly dis tinguished throughout, for the most part, by their ambiguity, that they only remind one of those once put forward by SOU THEY in certain problematical prelections, in regard to the mystical obscurity of which Lord BYRON wickedly ejacu lated— Explaining metaphysics to the nation ? I wish he would explain his explanation!" It is absolutely impossible, we maintain, after all that was said last night by so many of our leading Administrators, as to the alternative of a Congress or no Congress, with England represented at its council board by her own plenipotentiaries—it is absolutely impossible, we insist, to understand, after all that weary debate of yesterday in the House of Commons, whether the Cabinet is really for or really against any direct participation by England in the labours of the European Conference —a Conference brought together for the re organisation of Italy and the establishment of Constitutional Government in the Roman peninsula. They would—evidently—and—they would not. They are obviously—and this is the whole secret—afraid to commit them selves I They vascillate between intervention and not intervention—of course, of a strictly diplomatic character. They are eager to have a finger in the pie —and yet—it is so very recently out of the oven of war that they are—afraid of burning their fingers ! Hence the exaggeration by each of the great Ministerial speakers last evening of his own Peculiar role in the Parliamentary drama. Hence the noble viscount at the head of the Administra tion was more hilarious than ever towards the close of the debate in doing the light comedy part, and was (upon topics the most serious) more provoca tive than ever of laughter, renewed laughter, hear, hear, and a laugh, and finally of cheers and laugh ter. Hence the noble l or d the Foreign Secretary was more than ever, if that were possible ' blandly evasive and con stitutionall y commonplace. Hence the right hon. gentleman the Secretary for War such a preposterous ost en t at i on of indulged ill really making.', clean breast of it, on the part of him self and his collk 'agues, that his elaborated rigmarole is actually—not Irronically, but simply and honestly —thus epitomised. in the summary of the Times this morning. 2 dr. S. HERBERT," writes the re porter, " denied that Lord PALMERSTON had said anything about goil ig into Conference to settle the details of the Treaty - of Villafranca." [Min dthat, just to begin with, b . y way of a safe preliminary reservation to fall bacA upon in case of necessity.] 'a' The Government had never been asked to join in ig those details the Treaty of Villifranca." fl\row for the 'more elaborated specimen of Mr. SID: VEY HERBERT'S circums tinting, circumambient, circumlocution—so sinuously Lutervolved and intri cate!) winding even when epitc , nlised !] " Although we ha, i not been belligerents thct was no argument against : entering the Conference ; ; and would it be Nle" • P . 1 71 IU l• frr "5"..›-t'W - r1 e . 1 if 41 1 ' N • - 74, right for England—if asked on terms which afforded a chance of success—to refuse to t ake part 1 in a Conference by which a more permanent arrangement might be made for the security of Italy ? He did not say they were going to the Conference, but if difficulties were removed and objections got rid of, a refusal to do so would be a dereliction of duty on the part of the Government." That is in truth not simply an epitome of the speech delivered last night by the secretary for War, the right hon gentleman the member for South Wiltshire —it is really and truly the con centration, the condensation and quintessence of the whole of the Ministerial explanations. They never, said they, would go to the Conference. They never yet have been asked to go to the Conference, The fact of our neutrality during the war is no argu ment, now that there is peace, against our going to the Conference. Wouldn't it be better, however, wouldn't it be right and proper , all things considered, if, in such and such a con tingency, England did join the Conference ? Mind they didn't say for an instant that they were actu ally going to the Conference. BUT, if so-and-so were done first of all—and so-and-so—and so-and so—then would it not be a dereliction, et cetera, and so on, down to the very end of the last chapter of these voluminous Ministerial explanations ! Unquestionably, however, and beyond all manner of doubt, the most flagrant among all the Minis terial exhibitions last evening was the one dis played to the astonished house by the right hon. gentleman the Chancellor of her MAJESTY'S Ex chequer. The oratorical tripod ascended, Mr. GLADSTONE there became possessed, in more than ordinary excess, of the wstrurn, the afflatus, the fire and fury (shall we say signifying nothing ?) which are alone vouchsafed to the master Rhetoricians. Mr. GLADSTONE spoke yesterday so eagerly, so loudly, in terms 'so unnecessarily impassioned, and in language so needlessly hyperbolical, that he has evidently at last made up his mind to identify him self for once and for all with his new associates. He feels that he is in for it—and signalises his desertion from the cause of his late friends, and his adhesion to the cause of his new colleagues, by an extravagance of exaggerated ingratitude hap pily but seldom witnessed nowadays within the walls of Parliament. It was only yesterday, re member, that the Right Hon. Gentleman was the " most obedient" of the powers that then were—the Derby Government ! It was only yesterday that he conceived that it derogated in no way from the dignity of even his exalted and immaculate character to accept a diplomatic mission under the rule of that Derby Government. Now—who so loud in its condemnation ? Why, such was the overwrought condition of Mr. GLADSTONE'S feelings ' yesterday that he appeared to find it in a measure quite impossible to keep his hands off that famous and maligned, but in reality little read and most honourable, Italian Blue Book of Lord MALMES BURY ! Last evening, as it lay before the infuriated Chancellor of the Exchequer—late (in succession) Extraordinary and Ordinary Lord High Commis sioner to the lonian Islands—it became by a Hudi brastic periphrasis— "A blue-book—drum elastic, Beat with fist instead of a stick." We repeat distinctly, Mr. GLADSTONE was so be side himself with the spleen of his shameless ingra titude, that he couldn't keep his hands off the blue-book. " Here," cried Mr. GLADSTONE at last, in tones of irony so bitter that they partook almost of the character of invective, " Here (striking the blue book) is the great and crowning precedent — the rich result of the labours of the late Adminis tration." It was altogether a melancholy display of acerbity and of vituperative excitement that, ill became one fitted rather to be the WYNDHAM of our generation. It was .a display, we doubt not, that will fail to be very easily obliterated from the remembrance of Mr. GLADSTONE'S quondam friends and associates now in the temporary shade of the Opposition. Meanwhile in the midst of the vapid and senile jokes of Lord PAL3IERSTON, of the dull and amiable platitudes of Lord JOHN, of the paradoxical ambi guities of Mr. HERBERT, and of the unwonted and unstatesmanlike impulsiveness of Mr. tLADSTONE —how fares it with— " Italia, 0 Italia thou who hast The fatal gift of beauty ?" Whatever may be thought or said to the contrary, we cannot but believe and hope on to the last, that the force of Public Opinion might yet, if but properly directed, counterpoise even the imperial compromise at Villafranca. Public Opinion is in these days the true motive power to set in play the complex and elaborated machinery of European Statecraft. Properly directed, honestly and wisely directed, we believe that that great and paramount force might yet, and that very speedily, secure to Italy—from the Alps to the Straits of Messina, from the Adriatic to the Mediterranean—the supreme political blessing of Constitutional Govern ment. And in the still possible realisation of this magnificent day-dream, we cannot understand why England could in any way forward the great work of its realisation by abdicating her conspicuous and paramount position, at the Council Board of the Chief States of Christendom, as the greatest of all the Constitutional Governments. Yesterday was a grand day for the " Great Eastern"—that wonderful combination of genius, science, and art, never exemplified in so glorious and so useful an achievment as we witnessed yes terday. It was indeed the very perfection, if any thing conceived by the mind and worked out by the hand of man may be so termed. There was the aristocracy of the land, the principal members of the Legislature, the representatives of science, navy and army, the press, in short, everything that could add splendour to the scene, beauty and fashion, and all—save one, and that one the magic mind that conceived the wonderful idea re presented yesterday on the bosom of the Thames — that one was unfortunately wanting in the per son of BRUNEL ! He, unhappily, was lying on a bed of suffering, while the mystery of his creation was being worshipped by many hundreds of ad miring countrymen. Such is too often most unhappily the fate of Genius, and yesterday only added another instance to those recorded in the sad chronicles of time ! In another part of this impression will be found a particular account of the proceedings of the day. The speech of Lord STANLEY was all that could be wished for, and did himself great honour, while he did but due and befitting honour to others. The speech of Mr. SCOTT RUSSELL was as modest as it was manly. Great men do not vaunt their own deeds. Sufficient for them is the unspeakable satisfaction that they have done a work which the world will not willingly let die. And Mr. SCOTT RUSSELL has accomplished what no man as yet has done or even attempted to do. He has sunk his own mechanical achievement in honour of the glorious, the original genius wh o fi rs t con ceived and carried out the Great Western Railway, and now sets the world to wonder at his conception of the Great Eastern steam-ship !We sincerely hope that Mr. BRUNEL will speedily be enabled to visit the scene of his great labours, to the infinite the " great fact" * del N ig o h of his friends r t mustwov pass the u pu unnoticed THE SUN, LONDON, TUESDAY EVENII i stG, AUGUST 9, 18b9. that the efforts of genius, however wonderful, • would cease to be valued because they would almost be unknown, but for the sympathetic souls who can appreciate its inspiration, and so give them substantial aid, by a talismanic agency which alone has been hitherto wanting in carrying out the idea of the inventor's mind. That agency has found generous and comprehensive hearts and intellects in the person of Mr. ROY CAMPBELL, the chairman of the directors, who has laboured, such as few would labour, in carrying out the ways and means which are the very life blood that poor genius wants. Nor shall we pass over the merits of Mr. JACKSON—himself a HERCULES in commercial enterprise ! And now, as we conclude our brief and hurried notice, we must, with all who know him, do but simple justice by naming Mr. YATES, who may be called the very first-rate stoker of the Great Ensitern ; for to his unrivalled management it is owing, we believe, that the fires of her salvation have been kept in a glow of hope which will blaze on to a long prosperity, LATEST NEWS. The following telegrams have been received ai Mr. Reuter's office : PARIS, AuG. 8. The Patrie of this evening states that the Em. peror will return to St. Cloud on Thursday next. _ It is asserted that Prince Richard Metternich will remain in Paris as Austrian Ambassador. The Duke de Malakhoff left Nancy on Saturday 310IV,S'Y MARKET AND CITY NEWS. CITY, Two o'CLocK. In the Foreign and Colonial Produce Markets, during the last few days, business has been rather inactive, and little variation of importance has taken place in values. Tea has been exceedingly firm, but the inquiry is limited. Sugars have been dealt in to a fair extent for home consumption at a slight decline on former quotations, and in the refined market the trade have limited their opera tions, notwithstanding slightly reduced values. For coffee the demand has been rather active, and full prices obtained for plantation and Native Cey lon. Rice, fruit, and saltpetre have exhibited very little activity, and they remain at about previous values. Tallow has been rather inactive, a slight reduction having taken place for present and for ward delivery. _ _ In the Liverpool Cotton Market yesterday a fair amount of business was transacted, and prices re mained without any important change. The sales were estimated at from 7,000 to 8,000 bales. The Railway Share market closed quietly, but quotations were firmer. Although the applications for discount accommo dation at the Bank are rather less numerous, the general demand continues active. Some doubt, however, is expressed whether any immediate necessity will arise for an advance in the minimum quotation. The present inquiry is to some extent merely temporary, being partly caused by agricultural operations, which will cease at an early period to affect the mar ket. The Indian Loan and other negotia tions, however, may eventually initiate a perma nent alteration in the tendency of monetary affairs. There were no bullion operations at the Bank of England yesterday. The steamer Tyne, which leaves to-day for the Brazils, will take out specie to the amount of £37,080, viz., £27,880 in gold, and £9,200 in silver. The steamer Emeu, with the London mail of July 18th, left Suez on the 28th for Australia. The Columbian, with the mail of the corresponding date, left at the same time for Bombay. The Benares remains at Suez, to take forward the August mails for Australia. At the commencement of business to-day in creased buoyaAy was apparent in the market for public securities, and a further rise of t- per cant. was exhibited. Since then, however, sales have been pressed, and a reaction has occurred, the funds being rather heavy at a decline from the highest point of nearly •?; per cent. The settlement of the account is exercising a decided influence upon values. Consols, which have been 955 1, are now 951 / for money, and 954 for the 7th proximo. The New Threes and the Reduced have been dealt in at 95 . 1 96 ; Long Annuities (1860), at 11-16 ; ditto (1885), at 18 1-16 ; and Exchequer Bills, at 265. to 30s. prem. ; India Loan Debentures (1858), remain at 941 ; and ditto 1859, improved to 94. Business in the Foreign Stock Market continues rather active, and prices appear steady. Turkish 6 per Cents. arP 83 to 85 ; ditto New, 731 to 741 ; Buenos Ayres Deferred are firmer at 181 . 4 ; Chilian 6 per Cents. at 103 to 104 ; Peruvian 41 per Cents. at 921 931 ; Grenada Active remains at 17 ; ditto D ?ferred, at 5 ; Mexican, at 191 ; Spanish Deferred, at 331 ; Venezuelan New 21 per Cents., at 281 to 29; and the 1 per Cents. at 151. The Railway Share Market has presented a rather inactive appearance, and in several instances lower rates have been current. Caledonian, East Kent, Midlands, and North Eastern (Berwick) declined ss. ; Great Western, North Western, and South Eastern, 10s. ; Norfolk, 155., and Brighton, £l. The Foreign lines have been at slightly lower quotations. Lombardo-Venetian Old Shares are dealt in at 10y, and the New at 101. In the Colonial Market East Indian have de- dined. to 991 ; Grand Trunk of Canada to 341; Great Indian Peninsula are steady, at 971 ; 98 ; and the New Shares at 31. Joint Stock Bank and Miscellaneous Shares show little variation. Bank of Egypt have declined ss. ; London and County advanced 10s. ; and Union of Australia, 15s.

The Poictiers, freight-ship, has arrived, and will embark about 100 men of the 50th regiment, for conveyance to Columbia. H.M.S. Duke of Wellington, of 1311 guns, is shortly expected in the Mersey, wisere, we understand, she will be placed under the command of Capt. Mends, as a guardship for the port. H.M.S. Hastings will also remain with us as the exercising ship. PRESENTATION TO CAPTAIN SCIIOMBERG, R.N. —Some few months since, when Capt. Schomberg R.N., who had been for several years Government emigration superintendent at Liverpool, was pro moted to the command of her Majesty's ship Aboukir (91), it was determined that a suitable testimonial should be presented to him, expres sive of the feelings and satisfaction of the mer chants of Liverpool for the manner in which he had fulfilled his onerous duties. In a short time the sum of £4OO was collected, and yesterday (Monday) the testimonial was presented at the office of Messrs. Gibbs, Bright, and Co. The presentation was made by Charles Turner, Esq., chairman of the Mersey Docks and Harbour Board, who in fitting terms referred to the general satisfaction given by Capta'n Schomberg in fulfilling the duties of his office. Captain Schomberg feelingly replied. The testimonial comprised a purse, containing a cheque for £4OO, a silver salver, as well as an ad dress suitably engrossed and elegantly framed.

IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT. HOUSE OF COMMONS.—(Tins DAY.) The SPEAKER took the chair at one o'clock. PRIVATE BUSINESS. The amendments to the following bills were considered and agreed to :—Epping Railways, Norwich and Spalding Railway, and Tendring Hundred Railway. The following bills were read a third time and passed : Liverpool Sanitary Amendment, Lucette's Estate Bill, and Robins's Estate Bill. The Thames Watermen and Lightermen Bill was con sidered. On the motion of Mr. M,ASSEY, the standing order 215 was suspended for the remainder of the session. PONTEFRACT ELECTION. Mr. BRIGHT presented a petition from Mr. Childers, the unsuccessful candidate for Pontefract at the last elec tion. It appeared that there was only a difference of ten votes between the petitioner and Mr. Overend, who was declared duly returned at the close of the poll. A petition was presented, but an arrangement was entered into be tween the parties, by which, in order to avoid the expense of a scrutiny, which would cost about £3,000 or £6, 000 2 the questions raised in the petition were to be referred to a member of the late Government. In consequence, how ever, of some difference between Mr. Overend and his agent, and certain difficulties which the hon. member interposed, that arrangement was not carried out although the petition was withdrawn. He would move that the matter should be referred to a select committee composed of members of the general election committee. - The petition was ordered to lie on the table. Sir G. GREY suggested that the petition should be presented before the house was called on to pronounce an opinion on a question which might affect the privileges of the house. He thought the hon. member should have had notice of this motion. Mr. BRIGHT stated that notice had been given to the hon. member last Friday. After some dikussion, Mr. BRIGHT gave notice that he would bring on the motion to-morrow. Sir G. LEWIS suggested that the best course would be t , ) adjourn the debate. Ultimately the motion was withdrawn for the present, and the petition was ordered to be printed. Mr. BRIGHT gave formal notice of his motion for to morrow. CONSOLIDATED FUND (APPROPRIATION) BILL. On the motion for the third reading of this bill, Sir H. WILLOUGHBY and Mr. WILLIAMS made some inquiries. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said that the bill was drawn in precisely the same form as that of lest year. If there had been any misappropriation of the money voted for the expenses of the Duke of Wellington's funeral it must have arisen through mistake. The bill was then read a third time and passed.
