As the electioneering struggles draw towards their conclusion the excitement becomes manifestlyincreased. In Ireland there have been latterly, indeed, more fre quent collisions between t he mob and the constabu -1517 than has been usual e ven iu that land of popular turmoil a: d political agitation. At Eeveial of the county hustings in England, moreover, the fury o f the rival supporters of the opposing candidates has come from hubbub to blows, as was manifest yester day o n the occaeion of the nominations at Hertfordshire. The reason of this must be tolerably apparent Every one—w'nether Liberal or Derbyite—recognises the importance of the few remaining seats, to swell the ranks either of the Government or of the Opposition. It is perceived that within the next few days much may be accomplished to strengthen or weaken the position of our administra tors. Upon the result of next week's polling is de pendent in fact, in a very great measure, the actual existence of the present Ministry. Therefore the energies of all parties alike are revived to contest the P laces still open to the different candidates for adrnissietn to the Legislature. It is to this end that we observe supporters of the Cabinet thrust forward upon the notice of Liberal constituencies like the constituency of Middlesex, an d , opposite sid e , Supporters of theupon the Opposition brought forwaid as aspirants reputed f ance of the electors of suchh to o is North stituencies as the constituency thTeor resorted . to y uc c e o p n t : shire Every reasonable device Warwick way in order to turn, if possible, the of still rena" irk this the ad opportunities to the advantage Free-truing Or of the Protectionists. That efforts of this earnest description should be made just now, cannot but b e ca use for satisfaction. It evi nces a real solicitude upon all sides very preferable indeed to the h to the creation ePaty some ti m es culpably displayed in r egar d of a new Parliament. Had the enthusiasm which is th us being manifested at the eleventh h our by t h e Liberal possessors of the franchise been some what earlier in its manifestation, we should no t have had to regret the loss of so many se ats of importance. We s h ou ld have been spared, for example, the chagrin caused by the rejection of Mr. CARDWELL and of Mr. EWAuT by the men of Liverpool. We should have seen Mr. REY 24 "Ds still empowered to enter the House of Commons as the elect of Dublin. We should have witnessed the second triumph of Colonel THOMPSON at the Radical borough of Bradford. We should cared from the 1. ;ntme have been sav etseppe- - nt consequent upon the selection of two ultra-Derbyites by t he elec tors respectively of Warwicl-, of Cambridge, and of Rochester. It is unfortunately idle now to comment upon losses which, like these, are only glaringly irre parable. But a salutary warnin g m ay at least ' be drawn at this moment from their remembrance. The mere recollection of the evil consequences of the over-confidence unhappily felt in the f orego i ng an d 1 other instances by the Liberals of the United King- i dom, must, we believe, act as an incentiv e to a greater degree of activity on the part of their compatriots in the different contests still remaining to be decided. In Middlesex, for example, not an opportunity should be lost to forward the interests of the two distinguished Liberals who are the candidates for its representation. If anything had been re quired to remind the electors of Middlesex of the duty devolving upon them at this moment and in this regard, that reminder would be discoverable in the circumstance of such a man as the Marquis of BLANDFORD being hurried at the last hour, as it were, upon their notice by the advocates of the Derby Government. Happily, however, for Lord ROBERT GROSVENOR and his gallant colleague, Mr. B/axe' BERNAL OSBORNE, there existed no necessity whatever for any incentive to activity on the part of their numerous constituents. Their ser vices are too well known and too generally appre ciated to need any enforcement upon the knowledge of the men of Middlesex. The only effect, there fore, of the appearance of Lord BLANDFORD upon the hustings to-morrow will be the revival of the ardour long dormant in the county in consequence of the indolence of the Tory electors of Middlesex. It was ratheroENsßobE that, supposingemarked yesterday by Mr. Bthe men about them of the metropolitan coun t y were them for a ne w re presentative, they w ould surel y be Prepared to select any one rather th an the scion of a house seriously looking which had cost the country—for Blenheim 250,0001., for the great Duke of MARLBOROUGH 500,0001., and for his Grace's descendants no less than the enormous aggregate of 12,000,0001. Thereupon the gallant candidate tersely and facetiously added,in reference to the electors, " let them bring in 150 , 111 Q man with a cleaner bill of health, and a better title to represent a Liberal co nstituency." Upon the same subject, namely, upon the question of sani tary reform it was observed yesterday from the hustings at Hertford by Sir EDWARD BULWER LYTTON, that there were evidences of the apathy in this matter of our legislators generally in every alley of the metropolis, where you might count the number of squalid human beings passing away by the side of filthy pools and noxious sewers. In this par. ticular, as in many others, the culpability of the late Government must be allowed to be very enor mous, and if any authentic token could be adduced that their successors are prepared to act differently l in regard to sanitary improvements, it would b sufficient—such is our appr ec i a ti on of itsimpoertaanincoeslt —to induce even the most Radical electors to look with some degree of complacency upon the continued existence of the DERBY Government. There was much agreeable pleasantry in the speech addressed yesterday to the men of Hertfordshire by Sir BULWER LYTTON, whose support of the Go vernment resolved itself into a humorous on slaught upon the past Administration. The r lI T Lig Cabinet he spoke of as having received a stroke of paralysis in 1851, and died of exhaustion in 1852 ! 11 9 described it as a Government as much resembling an oligarchy as any that had ever ruled the destinies of Great Britain. "It was a Government," he said, of a couple of families, with one or two illustrious exceptions," insomuch that " wherever you looked," continued Sir EDWARD, , 4 you saw a RUSSELL, or a connexion, of a RUSSELL and a GREY, SO that the last Government put one in mind of the Chinese map of the world, which was a large circle in the middle of a square, leaving out four little corners, which they consider the regions of perpetual darkness and sin, and they consider the circle the Celestial Empire, the miserable remnant of mankind beyond being banished to those four little corners.—(Cheers and laughter.) Just so, the last Government, described as a Liberal Ad ministration, was the great circle where all the goad things were concentrated." Should the Hon. Baronet be elected by the men of Hertfordshire, his return among the number of the Derbyites would be as important an accession to the Government as the recent return of another illustrious man of letters, Mr. MACAULA.Y, by the constituents of Edinburgh, constitutes a noble accession to the ranks of the Liberal Opposition. We cannot conceive why any civilized nation should fling the mantle of its protection over ordinary criminals—murderers or robbers, forgers or swind lers; those who have compromised themselves by acts of violence or fraud cannot be very desirable additions to the population of any country, however thinly in - habited, or anxious to encourage immigration. Of course we do not include persons charged with poli tical offences, or acts not opposed to natural law, and only rendered punishable by special local enact ments. Such persons ma y be cordially and kindly received, notwithstanding that they may be fugitives from other lands, and that large rewards have been offered for their apprehension. Their very misfortunes, the sufferings they had pre viously endured, would constitute the strongest claim to shelter and hospitality. Bat, with these exceptions, all persons ag a i ns t who a prima facie case, or m reasonable presumption o f g uilt could be established, should be promptly surrendered to the officers of the nation from which they had absconded. The re pressioni of crimes a matter of general concern, in which all constituted authorities are equally interested, and no efforts should be spared t o at t a i n t h a t great desideratum. Now it is well known that the certainty of even a light punishment is f ar More efficacious than the proba bility of the most severe, so long as there is a chance before committin g an a o r f ra im ng p e u m ni e t n y t . fn M r efinighhatveevbeenen known to make every ea t they arrived i n ano th er country. offence d, scaornettehmapnllaotemd, believing that they would pursued, and th a t eve ry assistance would be afforded by the The knowledge tha t the y woul d be closely to stop th e authorities of the c ountr y , would do more mor e serious offen c es than any other regulation th at cou ld be framed, and a mutual surrender of cri m i na ls, due care being taken to pre vent the abuse of th e principle by its application to politic a l f ug i t i ves, shou ld b e made one of th e funda mental lam s of nati ons , to which every Governme n t shou ld Acase has be obli ged to con f orm .

There has, however, 2 b een an appeal from his decision, and it is said that K • allies advocate has sued out a writ of habeas corp,„„ in order to have the questions solemnly argued before the Su preme Court. We cannot entertain much doubt as to the result. It would, however, be desirable that such arrangements should be made as would prevent any possible difficulty. Nothing could be easier than to provide that copies of the depositions taken before the magistrates, duly authenticated, should be trans mitted with the warrant, so that the nature of the offence and of the testimony by which a prima fade case was established against the person, whose extra dition was demanded, might be clearly shown. All that then could be required would be the identifica tion of the prisoner, and when that was given the is a in matter having in placed which al su rrender of his person should be a matt er o f course. ced on a l nations This, a s are equally we havestated, interested satisfactory footing ; and it is one wo rt hy of imme diate notice. THE FRENCH REPUBLIC. We have received the Paris journals of yesterday The Moniteur promulgates the Senatus Consultum constituting the High Court of Justice. The Mayor of Fougerolles, Indre, has been sus pended, and the Municipal Council dissolved by the Prefect. Yesterday's Moniteur publishes a return of the revenue for the first six months of the present year, which amounts to 389,497,000 f. As compared with the same period of 1851, there is an increase of 25,837,0001., and of 39,030,000 f. over that of 1850. The State has taken possession of the domain of Dreux, with the exception of the mausoleum, and the agents, after executing the orders of the Government , proceeded to La Fert e id ame to complete the i r mission by taking possession of that domain.

The thermometer was a little lower in Paris on Wednesday than on Tuesday, but from the state of the atmosph ere t h e h eat was mo re sensibly felt. At two o'clock i n t h e afternoon t h e thermometer of M. CHEVALIER stood at 33 deg. nine-tenths of centigrade (93 of Fahrenheit). At the same hour, on Tuesday, it marked 34 deg. six-tenths centigrade (94 deg. one • third Fahrenheit). The elevation of the temperature has produced so important a change in the crops, that in some of the departments the rye harvest is already completed. The quantity is large, and the grain is in excellent condition. In the Valley of Montmorency, and as far as Pontoise, all the crops have a fine appearance, and in many parts the yield of oats is greater than it has been for some years. The accounts from the wine districts are much more favourable than could have been expected from the bad weather in June. The grapes have advanced considerably, and if there should be no unfavourable weather for a long dura tion, the vintage will take place at the usual time. ji lThe Bourse was dull, without much change in prices.

The Volkshalle of Vienna states that the Emperor Of AUSTRIA has signed a decree abrogating the law for the expulsion of the Jesuits, but that it will not be promulgated before the termination of the nego tiations for the restitution of their property. A telegraphic dispatch received at Vienna on the 11th announces that on that day the statue of General HEETZI, who defended the fortress of Buda against the revolutionary army in 1849, was inaugurated in presence of the Emperor of AUSTRIA, who went spe cially from Vienna to attend the ceremony. The population are described to have been rather cold, though very respectful, to the EMPEROR. After the ceremony a grand dinner was given at the palace. The Empress of RUSSIA, after her recent visit to• the cathedral of Cologne, contributed 50,000 ducats (360,000 f.) to the works.— - The German Journal of Frankfort, of the 13th, says that the Ministers of the states of the coalition are about to hold another conference, but that the place of meeting has not yet been quite decided on.

The sales of ,Cotton at Liverpool yesterday were esti mated at 6,000 bales, all to the trade. The market closed tamely, and prices were rather in favour of buyers. The sales comprised 4,000 American, 600 Pernam and Ma ranham, at 611 to 60., 200 Bahia, at 6id., 450 Egyp tian, at 6d. to 104 d., and 400 Surat, at 3d.to 4/d. per lb. —Railway shares continued firm. The produce markets this week have been dull, and, although holders have not pressed sales largely, buyers have manifested no anxiety to deal, and have taken only sufficient for immediate wants. Sugar has been scarcely so dear, and coffee has been neglected. Rice and spices have been without particular change. Cochineal is not quite so high as it was, and Indigo barely supports last sales' rates. Tea, tallow, and cotton, have been dull. The mails from Bra z il and Buenos Ayres do not bring a large amount of specie. From Rio and Pernambuco the intelligence respecting the mercantile markets is not very brilliant, and in im ports the transactions were but limited. At Buenos Ayres, on the other hand, there was an improvement, and the stocks, of goods had been reduced, owing to the smaller arrivals. The letters by the Overland :mail do not bear out the telegraphic version as to the markets being better. N e i ther a t C a l cu tt a nor B om b ay was t h ere much doing, although money was cheaper by about 1 Per cent. Th e China markets s eem a s h a de better. The indig o crop is well spoken of.

CORN EXCHANGE-FRIDAY. During the present week, the arrival of English Wheat up to our market, coastwis-3, has been limited, viz., 1,420 quarters, almost wholly from Essex and Kent; whilst its general quality was exceedingly fine. The supply fresh up to-day was small, and we were very scantily supplied with samples of both Red and White. The attendance of buyers being limited, and the weather very favourable for the grow ing crops, the demand for all kinds of Wheat of home pro duce was excessively heavy, at almost nominal quota tions. Nearly 8,000 quarters of Foreign Wheat having some in, the show of that grain was good. All kinds were dull in the extreme, and, to have effected sales, lower rates must have been submitted to. The supply of Barley was on the decrease ; nevertheless, all kinds were the turn in favour of buyers. No English quali ties on show. Malt was in limited supply, and heavy de mand, at barely stationary prices. We were fairly supplied with Oats. All kinds were dull, and damp parcels had a downward tendency.

CARDWELL.—There have been various ru mours respecting our late able and accomplished representa tive during the last week, to the effect that he was about to stand for other places at the present election. There never was the slightest truth in any of these rumours, so far as the intentions of Mr. Cardwell are concerned. We believe that he intends to take a ramble on the Continent, to recruit him. self after the labours of the session and the election; b u t Mr. Cardwell has earned a reputation which ren ders his spee dy return to public li fe, and to a se at in the House ui Commons, a matter of certaint y .

Rossini's opera of Otello was played here last night, for the first time for some years. It was strongly cast, and the per' formance was most honourable to the establishment. Mine' De la Gran ge , w h ose popular i ty increases with eac h neW part she ass umes , was the Desdemona and, as might ha , e been expected, th e spangled music of Ross i n i was inter. preted by this a ccomp li s h e d vocal i st i n a sty l e s eldom equalled even withi n t h e walls of Her Ma j esty ' s Theatre.

Her acting throltgr out was full of intelligence and meaning. De Basil Ingo was a most careful a n d we ll -stu di e d per f ormanc e, an the artist showed how a true musician deals with music somewhat less suited to hi s p ecu li ar ta l ents t h an t h a t whic' , he is in the habit of executing. He sang with remarkable precision, and with an evident determination to render th 6 composer's intention conscientio us ly an d comp l e t e ly. R! fine voice told admirably in the coecer t e d music . Signor Bettini's Otello was a most satisfactory performance; etld, l 7, Deh I Amer ! dirada it nembo," f or it s v i gour a nd spent , received, and deserved marked applause. He acted throe h' out with much zeal and purpose. Lablache was the - 9 miro, and gave the terrible curse " Empi a , to maledico with all the high pitch and intensity which, in years goo_ by, used to make this passage, when he played the party moment of breathless stillness throughout an expectant house* Calzolari sang admirably as Roderigo. The opera Went ceedingly well, and the calls between the acts and at the fall of the curtain were vehement. ROYAL ITALIAN OPERA. Spohr's celebrated opera of F aus t was p ro d uc ed last— evening to a most crowded house, and received with to: greatest enthusiasm. The veteran composer, who conclude!: the orchestra in person, was hailed with a vehement welcome' on taking his presidential seat. He was called for, along' with Tamberlik, Ronconi, Formes, and Mesdames Castellan, and Anna Zerr, at the end of the first act, and at the dol e ' had to appear again upon the stage, and bow his thanks to enthusiastic audience. The libretto has but little to do with Gbethe's celebrate drama. The beautiful and mournfully interesting charactf. of Margaret is omitted. The o p era opens w h en Faust, Tow; his infernal mentor always at his elbow, is in the full caree r of power and indulgence. Thei r n oc t urna l di a l ogue in the streets of Strasburg shows that Faust retains his good asP' rations, and desires to use his power in benefiting his fellow'" creatures, while Mephistophiles laughs at notions which..lL' withthe circumstance s are mere ly a b sur d. F aust i s i n l ove " a young girl i n a ll pur i ty and h onour, and w i s h e s to marry her; but the fiend reminds him that roa r : siege vows are against their compact.

We now come to another branch of the story. There is a brutal count, Gulf by name, who has car ried off a young lady from a convent and imprisoned her us his castle. Cunegonda has a lover, Hugo, who is a friendnl Faust's; and Faust offers him his assistance to rescue mistress. Accordingly, Hugo and his followers, with Fart and Mephistophiles as auxiliaries, a tt ac k G u lf' s c astle, which, by diabolical power, is immediately wrapt in fiamee . Cunegonda rushes out, followed by Gulf with his drawt, sword; the lady rushes joyfully into her lover's arm"; while a legion of foul fiends environ Gulf, and dr a g him to perdition like Don Giovanni. This ell: the first act. The se con d ac t o p ens w i t h t h e W a lpurg night on the summit of the Blockberg, painted after The witch Sycorax, raised by incantations, brews an intern liquor which, quaffed by Faust, fills him with unhallow ed thoughts and desires. The scene changes to the eget, before the Cathedral of Ai x -l a -Ch ape ll e. Rosins apPee„„, attended by her lover F ranc i s; t h e pa i r, i t seems, are l"" conciled, and have come together to seek for Faust and sel the coronation. Hugo and Cunegonda are getting martie i r at the moment, and the nuarial procession comes e ll ", Faust being of the party. Rosina thinks no poor Francis, bat rushes up to Faust with passionate exclamation. Faust is somewhat taken aback, but commits the damsel to his attendant Wagner to be takel care. of. We now find, from a soliloquy .„ 17 Feast's that the worthy gentleman is by tnw time, bent on possessing Cunegonda, the wife of hi g friend ; and what is worse still, Cunegondik, though she not sold herself to the devil, is quite disposed to meet Fan' half way. Hugo gives a great marriage feast, at which Faust and Mephistophiles, with a body of their friends appear as guests, and also oaina, in man's attire, by her good-natured lover Francis. Faust imme dia makes violent love to Cunegonda, who receives his advances . _ as kindly as he can wish, while Mephistophiles slyly point! more of out their flirtation to the injured husband. A quarrel and violent uproar of course ensue; F a ust stabs Lingo, and di' appears ; and the curtain falls on a scene of confusion. The few incidents in the third act are incoherent and withat , any intelligible sequence. We have Mephistophiles and the _ witches exulting in the success of their infernal arts; Irif have Faust full of remorse and despair; we have the two . s cup e s (but by no Illean tg betrayed women comm i t ting suicide; and l as tl y , we hap' the doomed hero o f t h e piece, his veavvvreditttoenin the y hell by troops at length full, con Fau s t b e l ongs to the school of Mozart, of plagiarisms) in every scene —in c onstruct i on, melonw phraseology, and instrumentation ; th e principal difference° consisting in the greater use of t h e chromatic scale, outh o of whom f devils. i tss? shows oh wr traces more studied variety of modulation, and greater fulness and elabcr" ration in the orchestral a ccompaniments. Fine as the mtlai ° is, this elaborate style g i ves i t an effect of heaviness algae' from want of relief. The opera will certainly bear abridg; ment, the recitati ve may b e condensed, and some , scenes cut out altogether; but the performance was admi rable in every re s p ec t . T he character of Faust has few ar'd matic capapilities ; but there is fine music in the part, 81/ . 4 Ronconi san g it b eaut i fully. The air in the first act, l'amore un grato fiore," was a masterpiece of vocal exP t " ... sion. The delicious little duet between Faust and Rosin* " Ab, se it ciel," was sweetly sung by Ronconi and Zerr, who sustained the part of Rosina very ably sna agreeably. Madame Castellan acquitted herself sP ie ,7; didly in the c h aracter of Cunegonda. Her great slet-a in the first act, containing the air, " Ah, un amore e vero," which in beauty and expression has seal . "'" been surpassed by Mozart himself, was most a ly quisitely g i ven, and applauded with enthusiasm. 1111 g3 like Faust, is lit t l e b etter than a walking gentleman; "7,„ the music of th e part displayed all the richness and brillian cy of Tamberlik's voice, and his success consequently was mense The only decidedly dramatic character in the opera 11 ; Mephistophiles; and it certainly is Formes's masterpie ce. Attired after Retzch's drawing, he was fiend-like in eve n / tone, look, and motion ; and the monologue which o petni the third act was given by him with terrible grandeur. The choral and concerted music was admirably perforroea! especially the magnificent finale to the first act —a most powerful piece of musical painting. The music of the witche s festival has some wild and quaint passa ges , but it lh short of what W e b er and M endelssohn has taught ns to exile!•", Every thing belonging to the spectacle - scenery, costunses!;; decoration --was got up with the splendour which distinP ll9 this theatre.
