The statement of Lord DERBY in the House o: Lords was looked for with great interest. It is true that the noble earl had little to tell the House that its members did not know already. We are all familiar with the history of the struggle which terminated in the resignation of the RUSSELL Alinis- i , -, W.-, .- .11 -_- ..LA1,14011, ALL CLUCA./...., ance with constitutional precedent, entrusted the task of forming a new Administration to the Earl of DERBY, and we have already the names of the new Cabinet before us. What was looked for, then, was less an explanation of the past than a pledge for the future, an, intimation of the policy laid down by the new Premier in a time of anxiety and disturbance. The oratorial ability of the noble Earl added no doubt to the interest of the audience, an interest which Royalty itself did not disdain to share, for not only were the Prince of WALES and his ',brother present, but the Princess of WALES graced the ladies' gallery. In the midst of this brilliant assembly Lord DERBY rose, for the first time for many years, in his place as First Minister of the Crown, conspicuous alike for rank, for talent, and for political position, the only statesman to whom the QUEEN could tem in a moment of perplexity and difficulty " as likely to form a Government which would have her own confidence and the confidence of the country." Yet, surrounded as he•was by all the favours of birth and fortune, the first words of the new Prime Minister expressed his sense of the responsibilities of his task, and the willingness with which he would have de clined them, while the concluding sentences of his address gave utterance to his hope that should he fail to realise his wishes for the public good, it might be reserved for some other statesman to protect and to preserve our constitution. The Earl of DERBY has never been suspected of undue eagerness for place, which indeed brings him a vast increase of labour and responsibility without any corresponding gain. At the present crisis, however, he could not, consistently with his public duty, have declined to.form an Administration, and, having succeeded in so doing, we are glad to find him giving so temperate, enlightened, and promising an outline of his policy. Whatever may be the faults or deficiencies of Lord DERBY'S statements they are never wanting in straightforwardness and lucidity. He had been too long he said a member w runuer nny public profession of his principles necessary, but upon some points he thought it necessary to give an explanation. Beginning with that topic which just now engrosses so much attention, he stated distinctly that he held it the duty of the Government, with regard to the war now raging in Germany, to maintain a strict and impartial neutrality between all the contending parties. "My lords," said the noble earl, "it has been industriously reported that a Conservative Government is necessarily a warlike Government. I believe there never was a rumour circulated which had so little foundation, either in past facts, or in the characters, the motives, and the principles of the Conservative party. That party consists in a great measure of the men who have the largest stake in the country. They are the men upon whom the consequences of a war would fall the most severely ; they are the persons who have the greatest interest in the peace and prosperity of the State ; and, above all, they are the parties who are the least likely to be carried away by that popular enthusiasm and those popular impulses which may hurry even a prudent Govermu ent into the adoption of courses inimical to the welfare of the country." So often has this charge been brought against the Conservatives that it is well for Lord Derby in assuming office at so critical a juncture to deny distinctly and emphatically any inclination for war. At the same time when Earl RUSSELL said later in the evening that the present war has arisen out of the Schleswig- Holstein question, a good many present must have reflected that a little more firmness on the part of England shown at the very outset would have de terred Prussia from her aggressive policy, and most probably have averted a war of which no one can foretel the end. Lord DERBY, as Minister, disclaims sympathy with any particular Power. His Cabinet will be ready, he says, to offer ad vice or assistance in bringing about peace, if asked to do so, but he regards the conflict as one in which the honour of this country is in no way involved, and from which we may hold altogether aloof. This language will tend to reassure the country with respect to our foreign policy, - while, at the same time, Lord DERBY'S programme of domestic legislation is temperate and encouraging. Coming to the great stumbling-block which has occasioned the down fal of Earl RUSSELL'S Ministry, as of his own Administration in 1859, he said that he had never shown himself adverse to the principle of Parlia. mentary Reform. Five-and-thirty years ago he assisted Earl RUSSELL in carrying the great Re form Bill, and on his accession to office in 1858 he at once admitted the anomalies which still existed iu our Parliamentary system. " Nothing," added Lord DERBY, " would give me greater pleasure than to see a very large increase in the number of electors, and to see a very considerable portion of the class now excluded admitted will dt i o l the fran c hi se ." At the same time he be bound by no pledges. Perhaps he remembers that his last Government was hampered by suc:i promises, which his adversaries did not fail to turn to his disadvantage. At any rate he reserves to himself entire liberty to decide whether or no he shall attempt to introduce a Reform Bill. Should he retain office we believe he will find it necessary to do so, and we can only hope that he will bring forward a liberal, enlightened, and states manlike measure, which shall address itself neither THE SUN, LONDON, TUTDAY EVENING, JULY 10, 1866. to the prejudices of his own party nor to the clamour of the other, but aim at restoring the constitutional harmony of our representation with our: population, which shall endeavour to secure in our popular assembly that faithful reflection of wishes, the interests, and the opinions of all ranks and classes of our mixed and varying community which the English House of Commons is intended to secure. Prominent among the public questions with - which Lord DERBY pledges himself to deal are two very important topics —the amendment of the Bankruptcy Laws, and the amendment of the Poor Laws. As to the need of both reforms there can be no difference of opinion. Men of all parties acknowledge their necessity, and probably no Ministry could long retain office which did not promptly address itself to the consideration of both. Of Ireland and of our colonies Lord DERBY spoke at some length, promising the nister country that he should dispense as soon as possible with all exceptional legislation, and that while the Ministry would endeavour to put down with a strong hand all violations of the la w, they would discour age-everything that would tend to keep up religious and political animosity, and would call to their counsels regardless of party or creed all whose assist ance would be beneficial to the country. Of the naval and military services Lord DERBY said nothing. Perhaps he did not wish to interfere with the pacific tendency of his speech, but we cannot help hoping that he will speedily inat.gurate some very necessary reforms in both services. We cannot regret that the Duke of SOMERSET declined to join the new Administration, for a change at the Admiralty may, we hope, inaugu rate a better state of things. Speaking of his efforts to extend his Government beyond his own drnp f i;..fa T _ _ scription of the state of political parties. The Tory of forty years ago was now, he said, almost forgotten, but he believed there was as much difference be tween a Whig and a Radical as between a Conser vative and a Radical. The divisions between parties were, he thought, often arbitrary, and this we be lieve to be the case. The mere name of Liberal or Conservative will not secure the support of those who honestly desire the public welfare unless the policy of the leaders corresponds with their prin ciples. " I look," said Lord DERBY at the close of his eloquent address, " to the real and not to the arbitrary distinctions of party," and assuredly the country will look to the policy rather than to the professions of a Government. "In attempting to conduct the Government," continued the noble earl, " I may succeed ; and in that case I shall attain the highest object which can engage the attention of any statesman. I may fail ; and, if so, I shall fail with the consciousness of having attempted honestly and faithfully to discharge my duty, and with an earnest prayer that, under the blessing of DIVINE PROVIDENCE, whoever does succeed in that attemp may pursue the path of a safe and steady progress strengthening rather than subverting the institutions of the country, and maintaining that balance between the various parts of our constitutional system—a monarchy limited, an aristocracy temperate, a House of Commons not altogether democratic—the conse quence of which has been a progressive improvement in our legislation, according with the temper and character of the times, and which for a period of many centuries has gradually led forward this country to a position reflecting the greatest glory upon the empire, and conferring the greatest hap- piners and prosperity upon mankind." Such lan guage is worthy of the First Minister of the British CROWN, and we can only hope that the Earl of DERBY will be able to fulfil his patriotic aspirations in a manner worthy of his own high reputation, and calculated to advance the best interests of the country whose people are at once the most Liberal and the most Conservative in the world. It is now stated that a few days will see the arrangements of an armistice, and indeed a rumour was afloat in Paris last evening to the effect that the illoniteur of to-day would announce that Prussia and Italy had accepted the armistice. It will be fortunate if such proves to be the case, for a pro longation of hostilities can answer no purpose now, and will only considerably increase the slaughter and terror already so painfully remarkable. It seems as if Italy was likely to be the bete-noire of this transaction, for she is demanding hard terms with all the consequential airs of a conqueror, while, in reality, she has done nothing during the brief period of the late war. The Italians demand immediate possession of two fortresses, one of which must be Peschiera. It is asserted that Prince Von REUSS has left Berlin for Paris with a letter from the King of PRUSSIA, containing the conditions upon which Prussia will accept an armistice. No doubt the KING has had the sense to perceive that the EMPEROR will not be trifled with, and has therefore hastened to make a show of compliance with his requests, and propose some plans, but whether they can be carried out is another question. It is difficult to form a very correct judgment at this early stage of the proceedings, and with these imperfect sketches before us; but we have every reason to conjecture that the Prussian terms will be very hard ones, and that Austria's future frontier in Europe will be materially altered if she is com pelled to accept them. The question will then be if the French EMPEROR will permit this spoliation to take place to so great an extent as the unscru pulous victors seem to desire and demand. lie has prescience enough to see that Prussia will be a dangerous rival and a formidable foe to France if she be permitted to carry out her intentions, and he will be acting in a very different spirit to that which has hitherto actuated him if he give his sanction to the overwhelming changes in Germany, which are said to be imminent. Of course, it is natural that the Prussians should ex pect to reap some substantial gain from their recent arduous struggles, and to have some trophies of a solid and lasting character to exhibit to the wcrld as the mementoes of their fights. But it will be another thing altogether if the Aus trian Empire is to be partially dismembered, and its power in Germany virtually destroyed. Without exaggeration this would seem to be the object now in view at Berlin, and actively engag ing the thoughts and attention of the chiefs at the Prussian head-quarters. The Emperor Louis NAPOLEON has had at various times since his accession to power most difficult tasks to accomplish, but never has he had to per form a work of such magnitude as that which he is now called upon to undertake. What with the complications of the German questions, which have increased of late years in intensity and interest, and the jealousies of the Italians, it appears in truth almost a work of supereroga tion that is now to be effected in Paris. It was an easy task that the neutral Powers as signed themselves in carrying out the Conference proposed in the spring, but that would have been nothing as compared to this. Then Austria could have spoken out as an equal, and Prussia, with all her pretensions, could not have made a decided , stand against the expressed opinions of foreign States ; but now she will appear fresh from victori ous battle-fields, and in a most unimpressionable frame of mind. It iindeed, to be regretted in every respect tin Austria should have been so perverse )out the Conference It was said at the me that she would be the loser by her dec)n, and events have proved the correctness of tbessertion. It is not for the sake of Austria herse)hat we are induced to wish the fortune of wa r h a neen otherwise di rec t e d, b u t because her loss is lissia's gain. Anything that tends to increase th e ] wer, and add to the influence of that nation, is a icopean calamity, and an in jury to the cause of eedom and progress. If it were not for the uneubted authority and great skill of the Frenc EMPEROR there would at this critical icture be no prospect whatever of a el) being put to the assurance of the Prussian; but as it is, we may fairly pect that they will not have all the game in ecir own hands. It is one thing to keep a tempory hold over places which have been the scene of truggles and the theatre of war, and another to delare that when peace has returned, and the tide 1 affairs directed to smooth channels again, the esquerors are to consider themselves privileged teretain their advantages. We must render jusice to the foresight of the Emperor of the FRENCH for he was desirous, some time back, to preven the course of German aggression, and had he been allowed his way we might now beeold a very different state of things on the Contiant. The blame rests with our Government that the Congress proposed by France was not acceited, and the refusal, the propriety of which was luestioned at the time, has since been productive of fatal consequences. Upon the death of Lord PALMERSTON, Lord RUSSELL retired from a long career at the Foreign- Office, which had not redounded to his own credit, was a member ; but in nothing was his failure so conspicuous as in his management of the transactions connected with the Dano-German war. Last night, in the House of Lords, he alluded to the dreadful war now ravaging Germany, and declared that the " present war had arisen out of the Schleswig-Hol stein question." It must have required great cour rage on the part of the noble earl to say so, when we remember that had he rightly represented the great country of which he was Foreign Secre tary that war might never have taken place. With out running the chance of plunging this country into hostilities, he might have intimated to the Prus sians that we would not tamely brook the violation of those treaties which we had assisted to form. The King of PRUSSIA and the Emperor of AUSTRIA would have been a great deal too wise and wary to provoke us, and thus Denmark might have been saved from spoliation and Germany have escaped the fearful scourge of a civil war. As to securing the independence of the lesser States, which seems to be Lord RUSSELL'S last hope, that seems very questionable ; and, in point of fact, it must remain in doubt whether any advantage will appear to counteract at once the decided evils that have oc curred from this German war. and on the locomotive, begged the Minister to ex. press the gratitude and devotion of Savoy to the Emperor, and to inform his Majesty that he prayed Heaven for his glory, prosperity, and happiness, and that of the Empress and the Prince Imperial. The Minister made an appropriate reply, in the course of which he said that the Emperor was con stantly studying how to promote the welfare of his people throughout the whole extent of his Empire. There was a grand banquet at the Guildhall, and the town was brilliantly illuminated in the evening. A new melodrama, the " Berger° d'lvry," by Messrs. Grange and Lambert, at the Ambigu, seems likely to have a run for some time. It has one peculiarity—it is founded on fact, being dramatised from a cause celebre of the Restoration—the assas sination of a young and innocent girl by her lover under the idea that she has been unfaithful to him. The acting of Mdlle. Launence-Gevard as the heroine is admirable, and must remind English spectators of Miss Kelly in the palmy days of the Lyceum some 30 years ago. The main fact is interwoven with dramatic situations, developed through five acts. In spite of the hot weather large sums were received at the Paris theatre and cafe concerts during the month of June. At the Imperial sub ventioned theatres the sum received was 295,924 f. ; at the secondary theatres, the amount was 580,976 f. ; at concerts and balls, 200,294 f. ; at va rious exhibitions, 15,896 f. ; total, 1,092,990 f. Of those receipts a considerable percentage is levied for the relief of the poor. A trial has taken place before the Court of Assize of the Seine, for an alleged attempt to murder, the circumstances of which excited much sensation in Paris at the time. They may be told in a few . words. The accused, M. Maichac, a gentleman re siding in the rue du Faubourg, Montmartre, having reason to suspect that an old friend, D. Doujon, was too intimate with his wife, fired a pistol at him on the 25th of April last, and wounded him in the face. The prisoner's counsel said " that the con demnation of his client would be to give license and ipapimityto tkup AV tillsanat domestic and every one sympathised with the accused. _ LAW INTELLIGENCE--This Day. COURT OF CHANCERY. (Before the Lords Justices). THE LEEDS BANKING COMPANY-JUDGMENT. Lord Justice Turner delivered judgment in this case. The question was whether there had been an acceptance on the part of the bank to take the alleged contract with Cooper Howard, and he was of opinion that there was not. The true state of the case was that the resolution of the directors did not apply to the forty shares, and even if it did they fell within the class of undistributed shares to which the latter part of the resolution clearly referred. In either case he held that the decision of the Vice-Chancellor was right. This appeal therefore must be dismissed, and the official manager must take his costs out of the estate. Mr. Cooper Howard's costs must be dealt with as the Vice- Chancellor directed when the case was in the court be low. The Lord Justice said he was of the sumo opinion. Appeal dismissed. CRIMINAL COURT.—This Day. OLD COURT. (Before tho Reoorder.) Richard Omerod Potts surrendered to an indictment charging him with executing an acceptance for £2OO with intont to defraud. The prosecutor is an officer in the 31st Regiment sta tioned at Portsmouth, who in November, 1865, received a letter from the defendant, stating that ho was in a position to advance money on personal security, and that, should any transaction take place, the most inviolable secresy would be preserved. On receiving the letter prosecutor accepted the offer, and the defendant trans mitted a draft acceptance for £2OO, which proscutor filled up and returned. He, however, did not receive any money, and was now sued for the amount by a third party. The evidence showed that some correspondence had taken place between the parties, and that subsequently some ad vances of a smaller amount wore made by another party through the defendant. The defendant had been an officer in the army, but was now insolvent and had no means. Evidence was offered to prove the above, and afterwards Mr. Montague Chambers opened the case on the part of the defendant, and said ho should prove that his client had paid the bills, and that ho was not the real party to blame in the transaction. The case is a very complicated one, and is not expected to conclude to-day. NEW COURT. ka./vava I,cl6Vitlll. John Pierce and James Kelly, two evil-looking ruffians, were indicted for assaulting Sergeant Robert Thurlow, 58, of the City police. It appeared that on the night of the 4th of the pre sent month the prosecutor was on Tower-hill in plain clothes, when tho two prisoners came up, seizod him from behind, and one put his hand over his mouth, whilst the other tried to garotte him. He was thrown down, repeatedly struck with some violence, and a despe rate attempt was made to rob him of his watch and money. The prisoners wero eventually captured by being taken into custody for robbing a sailor on Tower-hill of his watch, money, and certificate. The jury found both of them guilty. Robert Reeves, one of the wardens of tho House of Correction, proved that Kelly had been twice in custody for robberies from the person. Tho Common Sergeant sentenced him to five years' penal servitude, • MARKETS.--This Day. HAY.

A NOVEL RATOATCHER.--As a miner was pick., ing limpets recently on the rocks of Spit-point, near Par, he heard a screechin g noise, and on coming to the spot whence the noise proceeded he found a rat caught by the nose by an oyster. It is probable that the rat wanted to taste the native, and the bivalvo not liking its visitor, closed its door unceremoniously, and in the operation caught the voracious animal by the nose, thus contributing to its death, as the miner soon knocked it op the head.— Western Mornin g xews, CORRESPONDENCE FROM PARIS. (nom OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.) PARIS, Monday Evening. The negotiations for an armistice between the belligerents, aided by France, proceed rapidly and earnestly, but, as I informed you yesterday, per haps a fortnight may elapse before the requisite forms can be completed. There is yet no positive official statement thatthe Powers engaged will agree to an armistice. In the meantime the present posi tion of the troops is this. The headquarters of the King of Prussia are established at Pardubitz. His troops occupy the principal passages of the Upper Elbe, whilst the Austrian army ha re-established itself, as best it could, between Brunn and Olmutz. The Prussians coming from Ratibor have entered Trop- Paine, A aarre - s ' s - ed . ;o the inhabitants of Austrian Silesia, states that the most severe discipline will be maintained. The K;ng of Prussia will return to Berlin, to be present at the opening of the Cham bers on the 13th. Although there is full hope and expectation that there will be an armistice, some military operations still proceed, which prove that, although there have not been any fresh hostilities since the battle of Koenigsgratz, hostile preparations are not absolutely suspended. The Prussians, indeed, seem disposed to avail themselves of such strategic facilities as they can possibly obtain from their suc cess. The two united armies of the Prince Royal and Prince Charles Frederic have invested the fortress of Kcenigsgratz, where an Austrian garrison still remains, but which does not appear to offer any serious resistance. Descending the course of the Elbe, the Prussian troops occupy the railways. Benedek's army is reforMing at Bcomisch-Truban, at the junction of the Bohemian lines of railway with those of Olmutz and Brun. The latter is on the grand route to Vienna. On the other hand, the line of Olmutz, and even that of the fortress itself, seems to be threatened by the march of Prussian troops in that direction. Prince Alexander of Hesse, in the direction of the Rhine, marched towards Giessen and Marbourg. In Italy it appears the Royal troops were repulsed in attempting the passage of the Po, at the bridge of Boggoforte, near the confluence of the Miucio. The Austrian troops who were guarding Venetia have retrograded towards the left bank of the Mincio, and now main tain a strictly defensive position only. According to the Vienna papers the greater portion of the Austrian Army, after the Battle of Koenigsgratz, rallied together at Hohenbruck. It appears that about 30,000 of the troops, who were engaged in the battle on the 3d, have turned back in the direc tion of the mountains of Gatz. The Italian journals have received the news of the cession of Venetia with great coldness, almost amounting to dissatisfaction. The Provincia of Turin says—" The proposal of the armistice has produced a very painful impression upon the whole of the Army, and especially upon the King. According to the Italie—" The terms of the de spatch have wounded, and not without reason, the national feeling." The comment of the Nazione is —" The cession of Venetia, in the terms in which it was made, does not satisfy the feeling of national dignity in Italy." L' Unita Italiana speaks Still more strongly— " Should Italy accept the transfer of Italy to France she will no longer be the Italy of the Italians—ltaly would be a French province." On the other hand the journal La France is highly indignant at the attack of the bridge of Borgoforte by the Italians, because it says has been French ter r it ory Since the sth, and t h e Ita lians cannot think of a t tacking a country protecte d by the flag of Fra nce ." Venetia La Liberte, in it s comments and ant i c i pat i ons respecting the propos e d armistice, says :—" It would be strange if thi s arm i st i ce, so urgently asked for by Austria and p o li tely accepted in principle b y Prussia, should not b e a law for Italy, and even become law there before the conditions have been finally arranged and accepted," The Mentor/a/ Dip/oniatiq u defends Marshal Benedek, and contends that his reverse is not to be attributed to strategical faults, t; If the Austrian army have been conquered, it was because it was badly commanded, because it s arms were not so good as those of the Prussi an s, and because, in short, from b a d arrangements numerically inferior t o t h at of , the invaders of Bohemia." it was always The opening of the railway from Aix-les-Bains to Annery has been inaugurated with much ceremony in the presence of M.

AUSTRIAN IMPERIAL MANIFESTO. VIENNA, July 10. The Emperor of Austria has issued the following manifesto : "To my Peoples,—The heavy misfortune which has befallen my army of the North, notwithstanding its most heroic resistance to the enemy, the increased dangers thereby menacing the fatherland, the calamities of war with which my beloved kingdom of Bohemia is being desolated and which threaten other parts of my empire, and the painful and irre paraure it.Mbeb rsuzw.itueu, uy till many tuousanas of families among my subjects—have moved to its inmost core my heart which beats with so warm and fatherly a feeling for the good of my peoples. But the reliance which I expressed in my manifesto of the 17th June, a reliance on your unalterable and faithful devotion and readiness for any self-sacrifice, a reliance on the courage of my army, which even misfortune cannot subdue, a reliance upon God and my good and sacred right ; this has not wavered for a single instant. I have addressed myself to the Emperor of the French re questing his good offices for bringing about an armistice with Italy. Not merely did the Emperor readily respond to my demand, but with the noble intention of preventing any further bloodshed, he even, of his own accord, offered to mediate with Prussia for a suspension of hostilities, and for opening negotiations for peace. his offer I have accepted. I am prepared to make peace upon honourable conditions in order to put an end to the bloodshed and ravages of war ; but I will never sanction a treaty of peace by which the fundamental condition of Austria's position as a Great Power would be shaken. Sooner than that this should be the case, I am resolved to carry on the war to the utmost extremity, and in this I am sure of my people's approval. " All available troops are being concentrated, and the gaps in the ranks of the army are being filled up by the conscription which has been ordered and the large enrolments of volunteers, called to arms by the newly awakened spirit of patriotism. " Austria has been severely visited by misfortune, but she is not humiliated or bowed down. " My peoples !—llave confidence in your Empe ror. The peoples of Austria have never shown themselves greater than in misfortune. " I will follow the example of my forefathers, and will lead you on with determination, perseve rance, and unshakeable confidence in God. " FRANC IS JOSEPH.

BOURSE, July 9.-.-Two o'clock. —The telegraphic announcement of the unopposed occupation of Ve netia by the united armies of the King of Italy and General Cialdini, together with the suspense caused by the tedious and difficult nature of the negotia tions to bring about an armistice, have created a feeling of general apprehension.

The most noticeable feature has been a fall of 17f. 50c. in Mexican Bonds, the price now current being 150 f.
