The significance of all this must, we conceive—without another word— he sufficiently apparent. But, to render the mean ing of his remarks more unmistakably comprehen sible the Noble Lord pursued—" The time is gone by, thank GOD ! when it was imagined that the com meree of each country would only prosper at the expense of that of its rivals and competitors, and when the principal aim of every mercantile negotiator was to practice a deception on the other contracting party. Juster ideas, ideas more conformable to the intentions of Divine PROVIDENCE as far as those in tentions are comprehensible by mankind, are happily at this hour almost everywhere recognized, and com merce, which has been hitherto invariably the pre cursor of liberty and of civilization, and by no one more f u ll y th a n by myself, as chain the strongest li n k i n th a t vastis appreciated, of humanity which binds the nations of the earth together—repos ing the weight of the common interests in the balance of peace." Assuredly those sentences constitute not only a panegyric upon the principles of free-trade, but one as fervid as any that could have been uttered by either RICHARD COBDEN or by WILLIA3I lIIIS. BISSON. As if to afford a direct applicatian of his remarks to the rumour already referred to—that of his nomination to the post of one of the Secretaries of State in the DERBY Government — Lord STRATFORDDEREDCLIFFE spoke yet more decidedly upon the subject of these ideas during the course of his address to the English merchants at Constantinople. We obtain our know ledge of his observations from the columns of a j ourna l of that city, transcribed in the Courrier d' Athenes. He is there reported to have said in addi tion The most lively and pro found toconthltfioornegouoginhrto" vibrate in harmony with a chord thus elevated, and in these enlightened days I should deem myself unworthy of occupying any public post whatsoever, ihny sentiments did not respond to them and if my conduct did not bear testimony to their im perishable truth." The declaration is noble, and worthy of a great English statesman. But how does it in any Way accord with the principles of action guiding the councils of the most eminent in the DERBY Government. Their convictions do not har monize with those elevated ideas, in regard to the newly established commercial system ; their sen timents do not thrill responsively to their dictates, and most unquestionably some of them bear witness, by :their conduct, to the fact of their indestructible veracity. The de claration of Lord STRATFORD DB REDCLIFFE coin cides, however, entirely with the equally gallant de claration of Sir JAMES GRAHAM, quoted by ourselves only yesterday—" That which I thought right I 'would publicly uphold, and I would stand by it or fall by it. I never would be the tool of the will of the people of this country, I would exercise my own private judgment." Precisely in the same manner Lord STRATFORD asserted for his own part, that if he acted differently from this he should consider himself unworthy of holding office in any capacity whatever. The concluding portion of the remarks addressed to the English merchants in the capital of Turkey by the late British Ambassador at Constantinople, although partaking of a more personal character, and having reference to domestic incidents almost exclusively, was, perhaps, of all the most strikingly in accordance with his known benevolence and enlightenment. We have restricted our allusions, however, to those observations.which we con ceive to have a peculiar bearing just now upon public events of great importance. Coming to us, more over, as the account of this speech does, simultaneously with the rumour of Lord STRATFORD'S appointment as Foreign Secretary, we have commented upon the sentiments therein expressed as illustrative in a singular manner of the position of the DERBY Go vernment. A very extraordinary case of alleged wrecking has been reported to have taken place at the mouth of the Thames, at the very entrance to the port of Lon don, that merits, and no doubt will receive, the most stringent investigation. From the facts that have already transpired it appears that the parties impli cated, attempt to justify their conduct, asserting that they were fully warranted in the course they had pursued. Their of jest certainly could not have been plunder, for the property taken from the wreck was safely deposited with the receiver of droits at Southend, thus giving colour to the allegation " that they were acting for the real benefit of the owners;' and very probably in the belief that their proceedings were is accordance with the law of salvage. Nothing, however, can be more erroneous •then this opinion; It would, indeed, be a strange code that could sane. time a horde ' o f arme d men taking forcible p ossess i on of a vessel, cutt i ng away her rigging, an d removing portions of h er ca rgo, against the consent, an d d espite the remonstrances of the crew. If parties interest e d remuneration in th e shape of in obt a i n i ng large salvage for their exertions are to be the s o l e judges of the time and the manner in which their services should be rendered ' the most mischievous results would follow. Almost any degree of violence would be justified under such enactments. In the particular case under notice it might have been better for the owners if the men had been permitted to adopt their 07111 case. But the principle would be exceedingly dangerous, leading inevitably to injurious consequences in the long run. The Renown, the vessel in question, ran ashore on the Nore Sand a little above the Nore Light and close to-.-within gunshot e of—te 4. guard-ship. The crew, in the first instance, took to the long boat, and made their escape. The weather becoming more mo dente they shortly after returned to the vessel, which, in the interim, had been taken possession of by some of the Coast Guard, who would certainly have bad the best right to remain in the weasel if any such claim could be preferred. They, however, very properly withdrew when convinced that the crew bad really returned to the vessel, and were about taking active measures to free her from her untoward and dangerous position. The crew then had commenced their .labours ; they were engaged in stripping the nests, and a craft was engaged to come off an d t o re . cover ati9hatoies as could be come at, soas at the setae Mme ' ll- ght; nthe vessel and secure the safety of the goods. Such 'was s th e state of affairs when the -would be sAlvorA' rriade "the i r first appearance at the scene of the accident. They did not remain long idle. The roost sum mary proceeding s were immediately adopted ; axes were freely r esor t e d to, the rigging g endeavoured,cu masts threatened. T he d the to re ason with the assail ants, but • t aw ay an in vain. his expos tulations were received in such a manner that he deeme d it expedient to take shelter on the taffrail with the remainder of the crew, from his uninvited auxiliaries. The authorities were appealed to as speedily a s possible, and armed an steamer, as dispatched to the assistance o f the the African, was Crew. It • w as not, boe ver, until the commanding vi Cd to fire upon the re f ractory they officer had threaten . uld be induced to l eave the co boatmen that grounded No sooner, however, had the Af r i can vessel. returned to Sheerness, than the parties return e d t o the Renown, and carried on the work of destruction even more decisively than before. Another steamer, sentoat, and it was with the Wildfire, was again considerable difficulty the aggressors could be induced to depart from th e w r ec k, and the Wildfire remained in its vicinity in order to preventany return. ju stification for there c an b e no possible what might for these proceeding s , w hi c h, no m atter be the intentions or objects of the parties, were neither more nor leis:than acts of piracy, subjecting the perpertatore to:very stringent punishment. Believing, however, as we have already stated, that they ccted under an erroneous impression as to the law of the case, and that they considered themselves warranted in what they were doing, thinking that they were only asserting their own rights in refusing to surrender possession, W 3 should deeply regret any annoyance or inconvenience to which they might be exposed. It is necessary, however, that th e true state of the law should be :clearly explained and that not only at the mouth of the Thames but all along the coasts of the United Kingdoms. The law of salvage, too, should be revised, with a view to its amelioration. The preservers of human life should at least be placed upon as good a footing as the salvors of bates of cotton or tobacco. Every just encouragement should be afforded i to wen risking their own lives and undergoing sot • fatigue, for the purpose of rendering assistance where it was really required, but it should also be unequi vocally shown that :parties should not commit de struction, under the guise of giving help ; and, above all, that they should riot force their services upon parties not willing to accept their aid. If the present transaction should direct the atten tionof the Legislature to the subject, and lead to a revision of the salvage code, it will be exceedingly valuable to the merchants, shipowners, and under writers of the United Kingdom, to whom it is of the utmost importance that the law ehould be placed upon a sound and satisfactory foundation. THE FRENCH REPUBLIC. We have received the Paris journals of yesterday.. _ The Zoniteur states that the increase of money i n the Treasury has enabled the Minister of Finance to reimburse to the Bank of France 25 millions on ac count of the loan of 50 millions made by the Bank to the Treasury in March, 1848. This reimburaement took place on the 26th inst. A funeral ceremony in commemoration of the anni versary of the death of LOUIS BONAPARTE, King of Holland, who died at Florence on the 25th July, 1851, took place on Monday, at the Church of lerepo leon St. Leu. From an early hour in the morning an immense number of the country people assembled, and the houses of the village 'were dressed out with figs. At half-past eleven the Count DE ST. MAR SAULT, Prefect of the Seine-et-Oise, M. G. D'AURI BEAU, sub-Prefect of the arrondissement of pontoise, and the military and civil authorities of the place, as sembled at the church, which was crowded. Among the persons present were several 'generals, ands o fine old soldiers belonging to the Imperial army. the religious ceremony, a number of them went down ter into the tomb under the building, and placed wreaths of immortelles on the coffin.: A question which materially interests the public health is at this moment under the consideration of the municipal authorities. Among the gas companies which supply gas to Paris there are some which have their manufactories in the interior of the capital. The householders in the quarters where they are situated have addressed a 'petition to the municipal council praying that these companies should be compelled to remove their establishments out of Paris. In the arguments which they bring forward in support of that their request they pretend, and with some reas on, gas-works come under the denomination of dangerous or ,unhealthy establishments, which, according t o the decree of 1810, must be placed at a distance from. private dwellings. Up to the present time the muni cipality has viewed the affair in a different light. Will it adopt a different rule for the future ? Will the companies on their side persist i n supporting a right -which they have enjoyed for twenty-seven years ? We should be rather inclined to believe, that they will relinquish it beforehand. The three, com panies interested in the question have for some time past been taking their measures to conform, when ever called on 'to do so, to the decree of 1810; in other words, that they are ready to remove their es tablishments outside the barriers. The question will be thus simplified, and solved according to the wishes of the householders. Under any circumstances, the question merits the attention of the municipal council. Mgr. ALEXANDRE DEVIE, Bishop of Belley, ex pired on the 25th i n st an t, in his episcopal palace, aged 85. He was 29 years Bishop of Belley, and had, under Louis PHILIPPE, re fused the Archbi shopric of Rheims. He was O fficer of the Legion of Honour, but never wore the decoration. The heat of the weather still continues in the de partments of the south. At Montpellier on the 22d the thermometer stood at 40 degrees centigrade (104 Fahrenheit). The streets were deserted during the whole of the afternoon, and the troops of the gar rison were confined to their barracks from six in the morning to four in the afternoon. At Bordeaux on the 214, the glass in the shade stood at 3S centigrade (upwards of 101 Fahrenheit). In allusion to the reception of the Prince Louis NAPOLEON by the people, th e correspondent of the Morning Post speaks thus decidedly from his own personal knowledge. His account has reference to the wel come spontaneously accorded to the PRINCE on the occasion of his attendance at the funeral of Mar shal EiczumiliS, on Tuesday The attempts that have been mad; to undervalue the popular feeling in favour of the Prince render it ad visable to eiccrtain by personal observation the precise reception ho meets with when he appears in public. To day I hare had such an opportunity. Without his in tended presence having been announced beforehand, the Prince attended in person the funeral ceremony of :he lateMasdehel Excelmans. I saw him arrive at the Hotel des Invalidee, and leave it after the religious services were concluded, and was close to him on both occasions. lie was is en open carriage and four, attended by three superior officers, escorted by a small detachment of carabinkrs and fol. hived by a second caleche containing other officers of his military household. On his arrival there were very few persons present, as the Prince had not been ex pected; but those who happened to be on the spot re ceived him with an honest, hearty, greeting. Upon his return the crowd had very much increased, and then the ' shouts of Vive Napoleon!' were quite beyond dispute; and I heard the people, as he drove clown the avenue of the Invalides, discussing eagerly on whic t ll c a l d s e e 1 voefs the n carr i age be would zit, and kt hen ranging h viers of him.. j o . f . thnf3;yond l .road the that they might h ave a nearer escort there hoefr ,was ee no armed force; and the only police consisted t -V e four f o tfe o l f n t v h a e l d imt e ° s u and nt2d tt n o ic n i M G Q,ti d between Serp e ns w? a t it' and the river.

Among the rumoured Ministerial changes which have recently excited the popular conjectures as to the stability or instability of her MAJESTY'S Govern ment, it cannot, be forgotton that one prevalently reported, bad reference to the Noble Lord at the heal of the Foreign Department, According to this intimation it was understood that the Earl of DERBY had it in view to remove Lord MALMESBURY to Paris as Ambassador to the Court of Prince Lours NAPOLEON, and in doing so to send Lord COWLEY on from the French capital to the British Embassy attil Consta n ti n opl e . U n d er thi s arrang ement e Chief Secretaryship at the Foreign-office in u m:ling-street was said to be reserved for our late Minister to th e Q... 1-1: o,okoime Porte—the Lord STRATFORD DE REDCLIFFE. - Whether there was any truth in these anticipation s , it is at least certain that the dis tinguished diplomatist last mentioned her MA JESTY'S present advisers look to as one of the most eminent amon g t he sympathisers with that Adminis tration. It becomes, therefore, peculiarly matter of interest to bear in mind the • • political principles for which the newly-created Peer ls known to entertahr f ee lings of especial predilection. Those principles he has long since declared by many acts of his po litical life, so that they cannot by any possibility be considered as dubious by those who have watched his long and honourable career as ambassador. For tunately, moreover, a very recent occasion was afforded the Nobly Lord in which to remove all doubt whatsoever as to the tendency of his vi • ews upon the responsibilities of government. The occasion we refer to was that of the banquet : go/en to Lord to his departure for England, by prior by the British and lonian merchants o f Constantinople, During the course of those many interesting festivities the ex-ambassador addressed himself to his entrtainers in language of peculiarly honourable, and also we may add of highly satisfac tory explicitness. Among other things he observed—. 0 ' My conscience assures me that whenever I have found reason to take foreign interests into considera tion, I have always kept in view the sacred principles of justice and liberalism:, Of the accuracy of this declaration almost every act of his diplomatic exist ence affords the strongest attestation. "It is my impression," said he in continuance, " that we can be national without in any manner becoming exclusive, that we can love England without hating neighbours, in short, that we call ;maintain our THE SUN, LONDON, THURSDAY EVENING, JULY 29, 1852. SP A.I.N. j We have received the 2Edi - id journals . of the 231. The Madrid Gazette publishes a royal decree, j opening to the Minister of War a credit of 8,526,134 reals as a supplement to the various chapters, of the r War Budget, and ordering that the Government shall render an account of this measure to the Cortes. The fieraido states from Pais that one of the most 'devoted partisans of the PRINCE 'PREf.•DENT (M. DE MORNY is, it is said, alluded to) is about to visit Madrid. The .Espana informs us that the heat in the Spanish capital on the 22d was almost insupportable ; a hot wind, like the sirocco, was felt for some hours, and the thermometer is stated to have been as high as 36 of Reaumer (113 Fahrenheit) in the shade. The Duke and Duchess DZ MOISITENSIER landed at Ferrol on the 19th. The Espana states from Manilla that preparations were making there for the occupation of Jolo, and the construction there of a Spanish fort. The Three per Cents. were done at 451; the New Three per Cents., at 22 5-16; the Debt of the Fir Class, at 110 ; and that of the Second, at 5-'l. GERMANY. On the 23d inst. four statesmen of the Darmstadt coalition held a conference at Leif sic. M. DE PFORDTEN, President of the Council of Mini s t ers o f Bavaria, was the first to arrive; after him came MM. DE BRUST and Bins from Dresden; and lastly, Colonel DE MEISEDER, representative of Bavaria at the Customs Congress of Berlin.

A letter from Genoa, of the 233, says :—" A deli beration has tekan place in the Council of Ministers, as to whether the declaration of the clergy of Savoy against marriage should be brought before the tribu nals. It was, however, decided that as the law on civil marriage bad not yet received the sanction of the Senate, or the signature of the KING, it had no legal character, and that the bishops, as well as any other person?, were at liberty to express their opinion on it. Whilst the clergy of Piedmont and Savoy declare themselves so warmly against the Govern ment, we learn that the Holy See entertains the best feelings towards Savoy. This paternal disposition is attributed to the good coun sels of France. Count DE RAYNEVAL ap pears to have arrived at Rome from Paris with coun sels which have had the desired effect.

Foreign Securities were dull The French Government seems to be improving in it financial position, and the fact of its paying off 2.5,000,000 f., or one-half of the loan had from th e Bank of France in the year ,1848, is strong proof of its being in an easy position. The revenue must obviously bo increasing, and the probability of a new loan-is lessened; but the inquiry will vary naturally be made whether the revenue has so far increased as to give a surplus over the expenditure. If not, how can debts be fairly discharged? Hiving some doubts on this head, we refrain from indulging in congratulatory remarks until some further information is obtained. Notice has been given by the Post Offica authorities that after the Ist of next month a redaction will be made in the postage of all lettvrs forwarded in Prussian closed Mails via Belgium.
