The arrival of the China brings us news from New York up to Sept. 25. We have no further news respecting the elections, but the PRESIDENT'S difficulties are evidently not diminished. If we are to believe the New York Herald, Mr. STANTON and General GRANT have been urging Mr. JOHN SON to recommend the Southern States to accept the Congressional Constitutional Amendment as the only h ope of procuring their representation and of saving himself from impeachment. That Mr. STANTON should do this is credible enough, the only wonder being that the PRESIDENT should have retained him so long in the Cabinet, and he would probably have long since dispensed with his services had his political position been more independent. That General GRANT should advise such a course is, however, more difficult to believe, seeing th a t h e has stood staunchly by the PRESIDENT, and has upheld his conciliatory policy with all his influence awl authority. The adherence of the army and the coalition of its most popular leaders has been one of Mr. JOHNSON'S strongest supports, and has fur nished an unanswerable reply to the vehement de nunciations ef those " carpet knights" whose only idea of fighting the South has been to divide the spoils after LEE and BEACREGARD were subdued. Generals GRANT and SHERMAN, and those who faced with them the dangers and hardships and anxieties of those momentous campaigns, have a ' better right to decide upon the characteristics and claims of Southern people than those who, having lived at home at case during the war, are now pre pared to vindicate their patriotism and their courage by tyrannising over a conquered people; and despoil- ing a peaceful country. They are prepared to sacrifice the very objects for which blood and treasure were so freely spetit, and to assert their political sagacity and fidelity by outraging the fundamental principles of the constitution. They can hardly seriously believe that the South will ever agree to their Congressional amendment, which would compel them to surrender those State rights, so dear to every American, upon which the old poli tical superstructure is built up. It would be as likely that Englishmen all through the country would relinquish their cherished rights of local self-govern ment, abandoning all rule and authority into the hands of a central power. But Englishmen in such a case would at least know that whatever the dangers of the future, at least the direction of affairs was in the hands of countrymen, whose interests and sen timents were identical with their own, but the Southerner under similar circumstances would know that he was resigning himself into the hands of avowed and unscrupulous enemies. The form of representation might be Indeed allowed him, but that would be utterly valueless, as the negroes would have an equal suffrage with the whites, and in their present unsettled, excitable, and unedu cated condition their votes would be easily com manded by those who could most readily inflame their imaginations, or gratify their wish to live at other people's expense rather than by their own labour. The men who have fought under LEE, who have carried on a war of gigantic dimen sions during four eventful years, who have sup ported a constitutional form of government, which, in spite of all obstacles, worked as well as the old regime are not likely to commit such an act of Lational suicide as to subscribe to the Radical formula. Mr. JOIINSON is happily not the man to demand it from them. He would no doubt prefer the loss of his present dignity and influence to the abandonment of that wise and conciliatory policy upon which he prides himself. In the one case he would retain an honourable name, while in the other he would forfeit his political influence and character without gaining any corresponding advantage. It is said that Mr. JOHNSON, when urged by his colleagues to take the course recommended, replied that ho could neither be influenced nor intimidated by personal con siderations. He believed his policy to be sound, but should cease contending for it if he be came satisfied that the interests of the country demanded that he should do so. We may accept the whole of this intelligence with reserve, seeing the channel through which it comes, but it is quite certain that Mr. JOHNSON has enough to contend against. Nothing but firmness and disinterested ness will carry him through the struggle. If he yields to the advocates of expediency, or listens to the cajolleries of doubtful allies, or the threats of poltical antagonists, he is lost, and the hopes of America are lost with him, because it is simply im possible that the Northern States should rule the South like a conquered country. In spite of the immense preponderance of wealth, of population, of all the materials for war and for Government on the side of the Northern States, no one who looks at the map of America and contemplates the vast ex tent of territory which stretches from Virginia to Texas, from Florida to Tennessee, can for a moment suppose it could be held as the Russians hold Po land, as the Austrians held Venetia and Lombardy. The task would be stupendous for a despotic country, with all the appliances of an armed despotism. It would be immeasurably beyond the powers of any free and constitutionally governed country, such as America, which, with all her political vagaries, still claims to be. It is a momentous question which the people of the States have to settle, and the interests of civilisation, which, as Lord STANLEY justly said, are so closely affected by the destinies of England and America, will be influenced by their decision. In this coun try we are watching the crisis with the deepest in terest, not unmixed with anxiety, since, in the passion and excitement of the moment, we are some times apprehensive that our kinsfolk may lose sight of the vital interests involved. The issue is not a mere question of policy such as the difference between our Whigs and Tories ; it is not between the con flicting claims of individual statesmen or even par ties; it is not whether ANDREW JOHNSON or THAD DEUS STEVENS shall rule at the White House. It is between peaca and war, between an organised Government and a revolutionary chaos ; between a great, free, and prosperous nation and a dismem bered body of States whose territorial extent will be only a source of weakness, whose national strength only gives rigour to their discord. The interests, like the sympathies, of England are all in favour of the peace and prosperity of the United States ; but if they are to remain united, much more if they are to be free, powerful, and contented, it must be by upholding the doctrines of WASHINGTON and JEF FERSON, not by following the self-seeking theories of THADDEUS STEVENS and WENDELL PHILLIPS. A meeting of the committee of the EYRE Defence and Aid Fund was held on Wednesday last at Waterloo-place, and it is satisfactory to find that from all the accounts received and the statements made the undertaking seems to be prospering as much as its best friends could wish. A letter was read from Sir RODERICK MURCHISON, in which he regetted his inability to attend, and sent his sub scription ; adding also that he hoped the fund would increase so much that they might hand over to the distinguished ex-Governor " a testimonial worthy of the man who saved a great British colony." It was resolved that the Earl of SHREWSBURY should be requested to accept the position of president, and that Sir. R. MURCIIISON and THOMAS CARLYLE should be asked to act as vice-presidents. Mr. CARLYLE, being present, at once acceded to the re quest. An interesting statement was made by Mr. H. 1 - 11:31E, the honorary secretary, concerning the various steps which had been taken, and the suc cess which the committee had mot with since the l as t meeting. The Secretary has bee n mos t assi duous in his efforts to perrkominot all the l d i o r e b c j e t i c o t n s i . n view many provincial pap ers h as aapnpdeatlo he ma ar e i r o u squarters,already r andme formed, such at extendde t t o he the w b e e n committeesvery s uccessful a and in re ferm i i n e g v , fi s e a v e e a r t a i l a p I p a l c a e e s e . s The Working cited, and many others hAalvreeadbyeen s ome important Men's Association at Bradford are repeated, to be added to th e i list. '1 forwarded an address to Mr. EYRE, and that of Leeds ossihl e intend t o follow their example. In every p. public feeli ng th roug h ou t th e coun , IthmE has endeavoured to ascertain tr th y e a st o a d te w o e f hope by their next meeting that he will be able to Put' before the committee a satisfactory A letter response t o the appeals he has made. was received from the Bishop of Jamaica, in reply to an application made to him to g ive the committee information, and some interesting passages were read. The most important was that in which the writer declared that he " firmly be lieved that the speedy suppression of the murderous insurrection iu Jamaica was attributable, under GOD'S providence, to the promptitude, courage, and judgment with which Mr. EYRE acted under cir cumstances of peculiar difficulty and danger." This is indeed an exposition of the feeling generally felt throughout the Wand by all who Were witnesses of ' the disastrous occurrences that took place ; but it is so far satisfactory, after the lapse of so much time, to find that the opinion of so eminent a man remains unchanged. Further on the Bishop stated that he should rejoice to find that no neces sity existed for the further defence of Mr. EYRE'S conduct, to employ the funds of the committee, and that, therefore, some compensation would be pro vided for the " loss unhappily entailed on Mr EYRE by his disconnection from the public service, in which he had been so long and honourably em ployed." Some influential names were added to the committee before the meeting terminated, and in some respect it may he considered the most encou raging that has been held. It should be borne in mind by those who, perhaps, hesitate to join on the chance of the Jamaica Committee not car rying their threat of prosecution, that in any case the ex-Governor of Jamaica has suffered great losses and been exposed to great annoyance, while he had the highest claims on the consideration of the Government for the distinguished services he rendered to the Crown and to the country. He has earned a title to the gratitude of the public in pre serving a great British colony from destruction and saving the lives of the inhabitants; and we trust that he will not find that public unmindful of his claims or indifferent to his wrongs. We may fairly consider that the exertions of the Committee have so far inaugurated the undertaking that it has now every prospect of success, and we may there fore indulge the hope that it will go on and pros per, even beyond the best anticipations ever formed. But we have a deeper interest in the success of this work than the merefact of its being of service to Mr. EYRE individually, much as we value his services and deplore the treatment he has met with. There is more at stake in its success than gain or loss to any indivi dual, however deserving or unfortunate he may be. The credit of the country for justice and fair play has been traduced by those who have arrogated to themselves the right of pre-judging the matter ; and some of our leading politicians, who should have known better, have contrived to confuse things to so great a degree that they have made a party question of a matter that has nothing to do with politics. For many reasons, then, we may consider it most important that the EYRE Defence and Aid Fund should be vigorously supported, and that all who value justice and scorn oppression should lend their support and influence to it. The many names of note which already are inscribed on the commit tee are hosts in themselves, and may well assure Mr. EYRE that the genius and spirit of the country are with him, and that thoso who swell the ranks of hit. prejudiced opponents are more to be pitied than blamed, for they have been misled by those whose opinions they rely on, without having recourse to their own judgment, or trusting to the inspiration of their better feelings. The Austro-Italian Treaty of Peace is sure to attract a great deal of interest, and its details will be more eagerly studied than those of the Auatro- Prussian Treaty. So far as we can judge as yet the conditions seem all that can be desired. The mu . tual exchange of all prisoners of war is the first one mentioned, and then comes the cession of Venetia by Austria, and the frontiers given up are to be those which constituted the administrative frontiers of Venetia under the Austrian dominion. Th( Venetians residing in Austria, are to have the right of preserving Austrian nationality. Al, objects of art, and the archives belonging to Venetia, will be restored the iron Crown of Lombardy is also to be restored to Italy. Foi one year the treaties which formerly existed between Austria and Sardinia will be in force, but new ar rangements are to be made. Another provision of tht treaty stipulates for the restoration of the privat( property of the ex-Italian princes, which has been sequestered by the Italian Government, with the re servation of one-third for the rights of the State. Tbis is a very satisfactory part of the treaty, and we hope that by this means justice will be done to many who have long suffered from the withholding of their rights. The Prince of GorizAoA-MararA is one of the number, and we hope that he will be among those whom this comprehensive change will benefit. Another very desirable thins is the complete amnesty which has been agreed upon to be accorded by both Austria and Italy to all persons condemned for political offences, to deserters from either army, and to persons compro mised by their political conduct. This is an excel lent provision, and one that goes far to redeem its character and convert it from a form or ceremony into one of mediation of national benefit to both countries concerned in the matter. In many respects, indeed, this Austro-Italiau Convention appears to recommend itself to us, and there is apart from this the satisfactory reflection that Italy is at last free, and thus a great feat has been accomplished that many never expected to live to see. It will now remain for the Italians to show themselves worthy of their good fortune, and desi rous of consolidating those advantages which the chances and changes of time have brought to them. To do this they must show moderation and exer cise, more care and caution than they have been in the habit of exhibiting for some years past. The Austro-Italian Treaty of Peace. FLORENCE, Oct. 5. The following are the principal conditions of the Austro-Italian Treaty of Peace :-- " The mutual exchange of all prisoners of war. " Austria consents to the union of Venetia with Italy. The frontiers to be ceded to Italy are those which constituted the administration frontiers of Venetia while under Austrian dominion. " The amount of the debt assumed by Italy is 35 millions of florins, payable by eleven instalments within a period of 23 months. The Monte-Lom bardo-Venetian is transferred to Italy, with its actual assets and liabilities. Its assets are 3f millions, and its liabilities 66 million florins. With regard to the Venetian railways, until a further ar rangement is arrived at, the revenues of the two networks of railway north and south of the Alps will be allowed to accumulate, in order to calculate the gross revenue which should serve as a basis for the valuation of the kilometric guarantee. The con tracting parties engage to prepare a convention, in which the railway company would take part, for the separation of the two networks and the completion of the unfinished railways. " The Venetians residing in Austria are to have the right of preserving their Austrian nationality. "All objects of art, as well as the archives be longing to Venetia, will be restored without excep tion. The iron crown of Lombardy will also be given up to Italy. " The treaties which formerly subsisted between Austria and Sardinia will again come into force for one year, during which period fresh arrangements can be concluded. " Another provision of the treaty stipulates for the restitution of the private property belonging to the Italian ex-princes which has been sequestrated by the Italian Government, with the reservation of the rights of the State, or one-third. " A complete amnesty will be accorded by both Austria and Italy to all persons condemned for poli tical offences, to deserters from either army, and to persons compromised by their political conduct."

It is officially stated that the Treaty of Peace between Austria and Italy was signed on Wednes day at Vienna. The financial difficulty which de layed the execution of the treaty has been arranged, exactly in the way I have already mentioned. By order of the Emperor, Generals Waubert de Genies and Fave, two of his Majesty's aides-de camp, have left Paris with the mission of examining the former in the department of the Loire and the latter in the Allier, the disasters caused by the in undations, and to distribute in the name of the Em peror assistance to the most necessitous inhabitants who have suffered from the calamity. The Moniteur states that its letters from Buenos Ayres do net mention any new engagement between the troops of General Lopez and the allies, but they speak of exhaustion among the latter, who find it very difficult to provide horses and provisions. The Siecle has some forcible observations upon the conclusion of the treaty between Austria and Italy. That journal says : " Venetia approaches the termination of her long sufferings. In a few days all the soldiers of Austria will have evacuated Venice, Verona, and Mantua. The Italian colours will be suspended over the for tresses which were for so long a time the abode of foreign oppressors. The people of Venice, so great, so heroic in the struggle, so firm, so admirably re signed in misfortune, will again be free to dispose of their own destinies. This is one of the most striking triumphs of right over might which has been witnessed by the present generation. " Venice free ! Who would have said or even hoped for such a result a year ago? In spite of tem porary checks, democratic opinion dominates over the:world. Many assist it in spite of themselves. What we say to-day about Venetia we may have ere long to say of Warsaw." The 7urin Gazette says, that immediately after the signature of the Treaty the Italian Government will dissolve the Chamber. After the plebiscite in Venetia the electoral colleges of the kingdom will be convoked, and the Treaty will be submitted for approbation to the complete and enlarged Parlia ment. An extraordinary meeting of the Senate will be summoned to try Admiral Persano, and give an opinion upon the inexplicable disaster of Lissa. The director of the Et:eminent was summoned to appear before the tribunal of Correctional Police, for having discussed the right of the hospitals to a portion of the receipts of the theatres, and for having treated of subjects of political economy. Should there be a conjemnation, according to the present law the paper will be liable to suppression. The same dull, foggy, heavy weather continues. The sun has not been visible for several days. The Sanitary Conference which assembled at Constantinople to consider the measures proper to preserve Europe from the invasion of the cholera, terminated its labours on the 26th ult. His High ness Ali-Pasha, Minister of Foreign Affairs, an nounced that the proceedings were closed. The waters are receding in Italy. The route of Mount Cenis is again free. The postal communi cation has been resumed, but will for the present experience a little delay because the transport of the letters is for the present effected by mules from St. Jean to Lanslebourg. A calf has been born in the commune of La Chapelle Basse Mer (Brittany) which has but three paws. The fourth is on the back and is perfectly articulated. The tail is also on the back. It is only 4 inches long and resembles the tail of a dog. A new piece by M. Victorien Sardou has been produced at the Gymnase with entire success. It is entitled Nos Boys Villageois, and as the title indicates forms an amusing illustration of the petty annoyances and troubles of village life. The piece is in five acts. The first three turn upon the vents which take place g , down in our village," but the fourth act takes evidently a dramatic turn, tnd the sympathy of the audience is excited in favour of the romantic heroism of a lover, who allows himself to be treated as a robber in order to iave a woman's honour. Various startling incidents are introduced, but the plot is worked out happily and skilfully. The acting is admirable, indeed so effective as to make much of occasional weak points in the dialogue. The chief actors are Lafont, Arnal, Pradeau, Lesueur, and Berton. Mdlle. Pierson looked and played a peasant girl admirably, and Mdlle. Delaporte and Madame Fromentin played their respective characters effectively. " All the actors" were called for, and so was the author, but Lafont stepped forward and quaintly said, " Gentlemen, according to his custom, M. Sardou is absent from the theatre." There were more bravos, and as Sardou could not come, the audience re - called Arnal, who seemed almost overcome with the ovation with which he was greeted. An immense cheese has been exhibited at the fair at Saratoga. The quantity of milk used for it was the day's produce of 7,000 cows. It is three feet high, and six feet in diameter. The intention is to send it to the Great Exhibition in Paris, where no doubt it will be considered " quite the cheese." The well-known General Bixio, died at Turin on the 27th of September, after a very short illness. He had only just returned from the Tyrol, and was engaged in the recent campaign against the Aus trians. His regiment was the I st Battalion of th e Bersaglier Volunteers. ThAreestrmanognethesffeacgtoo! gthrieeflif (vorejooyf a concierge lost) has just occu rre d. her reason in consequence of the sorrow she felt at the misconduct of her husband. He has since committed such excesses that they caused his death and gave yesterday. When the news was announced to his widow she suddenly recovered her reason. Without Sugar." A cert ain Monsieur Niemard on Sunday e ven i n g , who went into a cafe a very precise order for a cup of coffee without sugar, has had to answer rather severely to the Cor rectional Tribunal of Police for the consequences arising out of his visit. The complainants were M. Bales and his wife, who were, as they said, grievously treated by their customer. He struck the husband, he beat the wife, he beat the servant boy, and if he did not injure the dog it was only because there did not happen to be a dog on the premises. The complainant, with much interrup tion from the defendant, said he and his wife were sitting at the door of their cafe talking about the bad weather, when the defendant went in, and seating himself at a table near them, called for a cup of coffee, saying very energetically, " Without sugar." The complainant.—l did not hear that. Defendant.—l said it. Complainant.--I told my servant boy to get the cup and the glass for brandy. Defendant.—And th e sugar . Complainant-1 he sugar, of course. D e f en d an t. —You see he admits that he brought the sugar, although I told him not to do so. Complainant. —What does that matter ? You would have to pay all the same, whether you took sugar or not. Defe n dant. —Very well. lam glad you let people see h o w you conduct your busi ness. (The magistrate laughed.) The co m p l a in ant explained that when he told the defendant the price was the same whether he took sugar or not, he threw the cup into the air, and gave him such a kick in the stomach that he had the cholic for a fortnight. When his (the complainant' s ) wife to l d the servant boy to go for the guard, he threw the boy down on the floor, and made his nose bleed from fright. He then bestowed his attention upon the lady, applied big words to her, and struck her a terrible blow upon the face, from which she still suffered. For nearly three months she had drunk nothing but tisanne. Defendant—Without sugar? President-- What have you to say in defence ? Defendant—l told him to bring the coffee without sugar ; why did he not obey the order ? In answer to other questions, the complainant said the defendant was drunk. The defendant, in further explanat i on , said he was in a passi on because they brought him sugar, contrary to his positive order. He, however, did not wish them any h arm. Perhaps it was not done on purpose. "If they had not given me sugar"— what would then have happened your correspondent cannot report, for the President cut short the de fendant's explanation by informing him that he should send him to prison for a month, and also impose a fine of 100 f. for the assaults—all this " without sugar." Tile individual pretending to be a Chamberlain of the King of Pru ss i a, w h o s windled M. Krammer' a jeweller of Paris, to a rather serious extent, has been claimed by the Prussian authorities, and has been Hut to Berlin for trial. LATEST INTELLIGENCE. (REUTER'S TELEGRAMS.) ITALY.

Tents are being put up in the experimental camp of Sancos, and arrangements are being made on a very complete scale, in order that as soon as the rains cease the troops may be marched thither. An universal opinion exists that the British Govern ment suggested this plan of treating the army more efficiently. The expression of the Emperor Napoleon, in his recent manifesto, that the existence of small couu tries is inconvenient as Europe is at present con stituted, has caused much comment among Portu guese politicians.

The New York Herald states that Mr. Stanton and General Grant have urged President Johnson to recommend the Southern States to accept the Congressional Constitutional amendment as the only hope of procuring their representation, and of saving himself from impeachment. Mr. Johnson replied that he could neither be influenced nor in timidated by personal considerations. He believed his policy sound, but should cease contending for it immediately he became satisfied that the interests of the country demanded that he should do so. The IV ew York Times shows signs of abandoning the coalition between the Conservative Republicans and the Democrats, and is advocating the adoption of the Constitutional amendment by the South. Wendell Phillips has declined a nomination to Congress. Mr. Seward has resumed his official duties. The Fenians are reported to be assembling at Highgate, near Rouse's Point, for another raid into Canada. MEXICO. NEW YORK, Sept. 25. Intelligence received here, dated Vera Cruz, Sept. 10, announces that the Emperor Maximilian has appointed Senor Martin de Castillo Minister to the Pope. News from Matamoras to the 20th Sept. states that Canales has deposed Hinojosa and declared for Ortega. He had also imprisoned General Topea, who was sent by Juarez as Governor of Tamaulipas. Forced loans were declared permanent. A large sum had been levied on Conklin's circus, and this had caused a controversy between the Mexican and Federal authorities. The Emperor Maximilian was at San Luis Potosi. where General Mejia had 900 men preparing to attack Monterey. FRANCE. PARIS, Oct. 6. The Moniteur of this morning publishes a Mini sterial report on the decrease of the cattle plague in France. This report is followed by an Imperial decree authrising the importation of all except ruminating animals arriving from England, Hol land, and Belgivm. Fresh hides coming from the same countries will only be admitted if they have undergone a sufficient salting ar any other disin focting process.

The following letter has been sent by Mr. Brand in answer to an invitation to attend the Reform banquet at Manchester : Glynde, Oct. 3, 1866. Sir,—lt is with regret that, on public grounds, I feel bound to decline the invitation of the executive of the National Reform Union to attend the Reform banquet at Manchester next month. I hold it to be my duty as a Liberal member of Parliament to wait and watch the action of the present Government with respect to the Reform question. Three courses are open to the Government :- 1. They may decline to deal with the Reform question at all. 2. They may propose an illusory or pernicious measure. 3. They may propose a measure, if not good, at least capable of being made so. It seems to me that the line to be taken by the Liberal party is clear. If the Government take the last and best course, we ought to support the second reading of their bill, and endeavour to improve it in committee. On the other hand, if the Government take either the first or second course it will be for Parliament to pass judgment upon them.—Believe, &c., 11. BRAND. J. D. Morton, Esq., National Reform Union, Manchester. METROPOLITAN SEWAGE.—A local Act was yes terday printed, passed in the present session, to authorise the Metropolis Sewage and Essex Reclamation Company to make a new conduit in lieu of certain portions of their authorized conduit, and for other purposes.

THE LONDON CORRESPONDENT of Provincial Newspaper=, AS SKETCIIED SEVEN YEARS AGO BY CHARLES DICKENS Who that ever once read it can fail perfectly well to remember that wonderful and multiform organ-- The Tattlesnivel Bleater:? Its celebration by the inimitable pen of Mr. Dickens appeared nearly seven years ago, in the 36th No. of All the Year Round, namely, under date Saturday, December 31, 1859. Yet the sketch is as true to the life now as it was then, the name of the unfortunate wight, whose portrait was touched off thus delightfully, being simply Legion. Indeed, so true to the life is it that with a very slight alteration, here and there, of a mere name or two, the paper might have been written, not seven years ago, but yesterday. Those who have read it before, will, we doubt not, very gladly read it again ; while those who have never yet chanced to do so will, we are equally satisfied, thank us for here affording them the op portunity of making acquaintance with— THE TATTLESNIVEL BLEATEIL The pen is taken in hand on the present occasion by a private individual (not wholly unaccustomed to literary composition), for the exposure of a con spiracy of a most frightful nature— a conspiracy which, like the deadly Upas-tree of Java, on which the individual produced a poem in his earlier youth (not wholly devoid of length), which was so flatter ingly received (in circles not wholly unaccustomed to form critical opinions), that he was recommended to publish it, and would certainly have carried out the suggestion, but for private considerations (not wholly unconnected with expense). The individual who undertakes the exposure of the gigantic conspiracy, now to be laid bare in all its hideous deformity, is an inhabitant of the town of Tattlesnivel—a lowly inhabitant, it may be, but one who, as an Englishman and a man, will ne'er abase his eye before the gaudy and the mocking throne.. Tattlesnivel stoops t o d eman d no c h am pionship from her sons. On an occasion in history, our bluff British monarch, our Eighth Royal Harry, almost went there. And long ere the periodical in which this exposure will appear, and sprung into being, Tattlesnivel had unfurled that standard which yet waves upon her battlements. The standard alluded to, is The Tattlesnivel Bleater, containing the l atest intelligence, and state of markets, down to the hour of going to press, and presenting a favourable local medium for advertisers, on a graduated scale of charges, considerably diminishing in proportion to the guaranteed number of insertions. It were bootless to expatiate on the host of talent engaged in formidable phalanx to do fealty to the Bleater. Suffice it to select, for present purposes, one of the most gifted and (but for the wide and deep ramifications of an un-English conspiracy), most rising, of the men who are bold Albion's pride. It were needless, after this preamble, to point the finger more directly at the London Correspondent of the Tattlesnivel Bleater. On the weekly letters of that correspondent, on the flexibility of their English, on the boldness of their grammar, on the originality of their quotations (never to be found as they are printed, in any book existing), on the priority of their information, on on their intimate acquaintance with the secret thoughts and unexecuted intentions of men, it would ill become the humble Tattlesnivellian who traces these words, to dwell. They are graven in the memory ; th e y are on the Bleater's file. Let them be referred to. But, from the infamous, the dark, the subtle con spiracy which spreads its baleful roots throughout the land, and of which the Bleater's London Cor respondent is the one sole subject, it is the purpose of the lowly Tattlesnivellian who undertakes this revelation, to tear the veil. Nor will he shrink from his self-imposed labour, Herculean though it be. The conspiracy begins in the very Palace of the Sovereign Lady of our Ocean Isle. Leal and loyal as it is the proud vaunt of the Bleater's readers, one and all, to be, the inhabitant who pens this exposure does not personally impeach, either her Majesty the Queen, or the illustrious Prince Consort. But, some silken-clad smoothers, some purple parasite, some fawners in flippery, some greedy and begar tered ones in gorgeous garments, he does impeach —ay, and wrathfully ! It is asked on what grounds? They shall be stated. The Bleater's London Correspondent, in the pro secution of his important inquiries, goes down to Windsor, sends in his card, has a confidential inter view with her Majesty and the illustrious Prince Con sort. For a time, the restraints of Royalty are thrown aside in the cheerful conversation of the Bleater's London Correspondent, in his fund of information, in his flow of anecdote, in the atmosphere of his genius ; her Majesty brightens, the illustrious Prince Con- sort thaws, the cares of State and the conflicts of party are forgotten, lunch is proposed. Over that unassuming and domestic table, her Majesty com municates to the Bleater's London Correspondent that it is her intention to send his Royal Highness the Prince of Wales to inspect the top of the Great Pyramid—thinking it likely to improve his ac quaintance with the views of the people. Her Majesty further communicates that she has made up her Royal mind (and that the Frince Consort has made up his illustrious mind) to the bestowal of the vacant Garter, let us say on Mr. Roebuck. The younger Royal children having been introduced at the request of the Bleater's London Correspondent and having been by him closely observed to presen the usual external indications of good health, thet happy knot is severed, with a sigh the Royal bow is once more strung to its full tension, the Bleater's London Correspondent returns to London, writes his letter,and tells theTattlesnivel Bleater what he knows. All Tattlesnivel reads it, and knows that he knows it. But does his Royal Highness the Prince of Wales ultimately go to the top of the Great Pyra mid ? Does Mr. Roebuck ultimately get the Garter ? No. Are the younger Royal children even ulti mately found to be well ? On the contrary, they have—and on that very day had--the measles. Why is this? Because the conspirators against the Bleater's London Correspondent have stepped in with their dark machinations. Because her Majesty and the Prince Consort are artfully induced to change their minds, from north to south, from east to west, imme diately after it is known to the conspirators that they have put themselves in communication with the Bleater's London Correspondent. It is now indig nantly demanded, by whom are they so tampered with? It is now indignantly demanded, who took the responsibility of concealing the indisposition of those Royal children from their Royal and Illus trious parents, and of bringing them down from their beds, disguised, expressly to confound the London Correspondent of the Tattlesnivel Bleater ? Who are those persons, it is again asked ? Let not rank and favour protect them. Let the traitors be exhibited in the face of day Lord John Russell is in this conspiracy. Tell us not that his lordship is a man of too much spirit and honour. Denunciation is hurled against him. The proof ? The proof is here. The Time is panting for an answer to the ques tion, Will Lord John Russell consent to take office under Lord Palmerston ? Good. The London Correspondent of the Tattesnivel Bleater is in the act of writing his weekly letter, finds himself rather at a loss to settle this question finally, leaves off, puts his hat on, goes down to the lobby of the House of Commons, sends in for Lord John Russell, and has him out. Ile draws his arm through his Lordship's, takes him aside, and says, " John, will you ever accept office under Palmerston ?" His Lordship replies," I will not." The Bleater's London Cor respondent retorts, with the caution such as - a man is bound to use, " John, think again ; say nothing to me rashly ;is there any temper here?" His Lordship replies, calmly, " None whatever." After giving him time for reflection, the Bleater's London Correspondent says, " Once more, John, let me put a question to you. Will you ever accept office under Palmerston ?" His Lordship answers (note the exact expressions), "Nothing shall induce me ever to accept a seat in a Cabinet of which Palmerston is the Chief." They part, the London Correspondent of the Tattlesnivel Bleater finishes his letter, and—always being withheld by motives of delicacy, from plainly divulging his means of getting accurate information on every subject, at first haud—put in it this passage : " Lord J. Russell is spoken of, by blunderers, for Foreign Affairs ; but I have the best reasons for assuring your readers, that" (giving prominence to the exact expressions, it will be observed) " nothing will ever induce him to ae Chief.' O eeptaseat in n hi th t eC s abinet of which Palmerston isthe of that number n of th the e3v' ir ß ly l m e d a aa t yy e r implicitly Bleater--the t eh epublica tion malignity rey What happe ns ? of the conspirators being even manifested in the selection of the day—Lord John Russell takes the Foreign-office. Comment were superfluous. The people of Tattl6snivel will be told, have been told, that Lord John Russell is a man of his word. Ile may be, on some occasions ; but, when over shadowed by this dark and enormous growth of con spiracy, Tattlesnivel knows him to be otherwise. " I happen to be certain, deriving my information from a source which cannot be doubted to be authentic," wrote the London Correspondent of the Bleater within the last year, "that Lord John Russell bitterly re grets having made that explicit speech of last Mon day." These are not roundabout phrases ; these are plain words. What does Lord John Russell (apparently by accident), within eight-and-forty hours after their diffusion over the civilised globe ? Rises in his place in Parliament, and unblushingly declares that if the occasion could arise fire dred times, for his making that very speech, he would make it five hundred times ! Is there no conspiracy here ? And is this combination against one who would be always right if be were not proved always wrong, to be endured in a country that boasts of its freedom and its fairness ? But, the Tattlesnivellian who now raises his voice against intolerable oppression, may be told that, after all, this is a political conspiracy. He may be told, forsooth, that Mr. Disrael's being in it, that Lord Derby's being in it, that Mr. Bright's being in it, that every Home, Foreign, and Colonial Secretary's beingin it, that every ministry's and every opposition's being in it, are but proofs that men will do in politics what they would do in nothing else. Is this the plea? If so, the rejoinder is that the mighty conspiracy includes the whole circle of Artists of all kinds, and comprehends all degrees of men, down to the worst criminal and the hangman who ends his career. For, all these are intimately known to the London Correspondent of the Tattle snivel Bleater, and all these deceive him. Sir, put it to the proof. There is the Bleater on the file—documentary evidence. Weeks, mouths, before the Exhibition of the Royal Academy, the Bleater's London Correspondent kriows the subjects of all the leading pictures, knows what the painters first meant to do, knows what they ought to do and won't do, knows what they ought not to do and will do, knows to a letter from whom they have commissions, knows to a shilling how much they are to be paid. Now, no sooner is each studio clear of the remarkable man to whom each studio-occupant has revealed himself as he does not reveal himself to his nearest and dearest bosom friend, than conspiracy and fraud begin. Alfred the Great becomes the Fairy Queen ; Moses viewing the Promised Land, turns out to be Moses going to the Fair ; Portrait of his Grace the Archbishop of Canterbury, is transformed, as if by irreverent enchantment of the dissenting interest, into A Favourite Terrier, or Cattle Grazing ; and the most extraordinary work of art in the list de scribed by the Bleater, is coolly sponged out alto gether, and asserted never to have had existence • _ at all, even in the most shadowy thoughts of its executant ! This is vile enough, but this is not all. Picture-buyers then come forth from their secret positions, and creep into their places in the assassin - multitude of conspirators. Mr. Baring, after expressly telling the Bleater's London Correspondent that he had bought No. 39 for one thousand guineas, gives it up to somebody unknown for a couple of hundred pounds ; the Marquis of Lansdowne pretends to have no knowledge whatever of the commissions to which the London Correspondent of the Bleater swore him, but allows a railway contractor to cut him out for half the money. Similar examples might be multiplied. Shame, on these men ! Is this England ? Sir, look again at literature. The Bleater's London Correspondent is not merely acquainted with all the eminent writers, but . is in possession of the secrets of their souls. He is versed in their hidden meanings and references, sees their manu scripts before publication, and knows the sub jects and titles of their books when they are not begun. How dare these writers turn upon the eminent man and depart from every inten tion they have confided to him ? How do they justify themselves in entirely altering their manu scripts, changing their titles, and abandoning their subjects ? 'Will they deny, in the face of Tattlesnivel, that they do so ? If they have such hardihood, let the file of the Bleater strike them dumb. By their fruits they shall be known. Let their works be compared with the anticipatory letters of the Bleater's London Correspondent, and their falsehood and deceit will become manifest as the sun ; it will be seen that they do nothing which they stand pledged to the Bleater's London Corre spondent to do ; it will be seen that they are among the blackest parties in this black and base con spiracy. This will become apparent, sir, not only as to their public proceedings, but as to their private affairs. The outraged Tattlesnivellian who now drags this infamous combination into the face of day charges those literary persons with making away with their property, imposing on the Income Tax Commissioners, keeping false books, and enter ing into s h am contracts. H e accuses them on the unimpeachable faith of the London Correspon dent of the Tattlesnivel Bleater, with whose evidence they will find it impossible to reconcile their own account of any transaction of their lives. The national character is degenerating under the influence of the ramifications of this tremendous conspiracy. Forgery is committed constantly. A person of note—any sort of person of note—dies. The Bleater's London Correspondent knows what his circumstances are, what his sayings are (if any), who his creditors are, all about his children and re lations, and (in general, before his body is cold) describes his will. Is that will ever proved ? Never! Some other will is substituted; the real instrument, destroyed. And this (as has been before observed) is England ! Who are the workers and artificers enrolled upon the books of this treacherous league ? From what funds are they paid, and with what ceremonies are they sworn to secrecy ? Are there none such? Observe what follows. A little time ago the Bleater's London Correspondent had this pas sage :—" Boddleboy is pianoforte playing at St. James's Gallery, with pretty tolerable success He clears three hundred pounds per night. Not bad this! !" The builder of St. Janua rius's Gallery (plunged to the throat in the conspi racy) met with this piece of news, and observed, with characteristic coarseness, " that the Bleater's London Correspondent was a Blind Ass." Being pressed by a man of spirit to give his reasons for thin extraordinary statement, he declared that the Gal lery, crammed to suffocation, would not hold two hundred pounds, and that its expenses were, pro bably, at least half what it did hold. The man of spirit (himself a Tattlesnivellian) had the Gallery measured within a week from that hour, and it would not hold two hundred pounds ! Now, can the poorest capacity doubt that it had been altered in the meantime ? And so the conspiracy extends, through every grade of society, down to the condemned criminal in prison, the hangman, and the Ordinary. Every famous murderer within the last ten years has desecrated his last moments by falsifyin g his confidences imp ar t e d spec i a ll y to t h e L ondon Cor respondent of the Tattlesnivel Bleater ; on every such occasion, Mr. Calcraft has followed the de grading example ; and the reverend Ordinary, for getful of his cloth, and mindful only (it would seem, alas !) of the conspiracy, has committed himself to some account or other of the criminal's demeanour and conversation, which has been diametrically op posed to the exclusive information of the London Correspondent of the Bleater. And this (as haS been before observed) is Merry England ! A man of true genius, however, is not easily de feated. The Bleater's London Correspondent, pro bably beginning to suspect the existence of a plot against him, has recently fallen on a new style, which, as being very difficult to countermine, may necessitate the organisation of a new conspiracy. One of his masterly letters, lately, disclosed the adoption of this style—which was remarked with profound sensation throughout Tattlesnivel—in the following passage, " Mentioning literary small talk, I may tell you that some new and extraordinary rumours are afloat concerning the conversations have previously mentioned, alleged to have taken place in the first floor front (situated over the street door), of Mr. X. Aineter (the poet so well known to your readers), in which, X. Ameter's great uncle, his second son, his butcher, and a corpulent gentle man with one eye universally respected at Kensing ton, are said not to have been on the most friendly footing ; I forbear, however, to pursue the subject further this week, my informant not being able to supply me with exact particulars." But enough, sir. The inhabitant of Tattlesnivel who has taken pen in hand to expose this odious association of unprincipled men against a shining (local) character turns from it with disgust and contempt. Let him in few words strip the remain ing flimsy covering from the nude object of the con spirators, and his loathsome task is ended. Sir, that object, he contends, is evidently two fold. First, to exhibit the London Correspondent of the Tattlesnivel Bleater in the light of a mis chievous Blockhead, who, by hiring himself out to tell what he cannot possibly know, is as great a public nuisance as a Blockhead in a corner can be. Second, to suggest to the men of Tattlesnivel that it does not improve their town to have so much Dry Rubbish shot there. Row, sir, on both these points Tattlesnivel de mands in accents of Thunder, Where is the Attor ney-General ? Why doesn't the Times take it up ? (Is the latter in the conspiracy ? It never adopts his views, or quotes him, and incessantly contradicts him.) Tattlesnivel, sir, remembering that our forefathers contended with the Norman at Hastings, and bled at a variety of other places that will readily occur to you, demands that its birthright shall not be bartered away for a mess of potage. Have!' care, sir, have a care Or Tattlesnivel (its idle rifles piled in its scouted streets) may be seen ere long, advancing with its Bleater to the foot of the Throne, and demanding redress for this conspiracy*, from the orbed and sceptred hands of Majesty itself!
