The intelligence which Lord DERBY last n ight announced in the House of Lords, and Mr. _Ms n.kuu in the Commons, though not unexpected, will be received with lively and general satisfaction. BURKE, indeed, may not individually command our respect or excite our symplthies, and has no doubt fully merited the punishment which he incurred by his open and premeditated breach of the laws. Ilia crime, indeed, was intended to doom many to the fate which he has so narrowly escaped himself. Like an incendiary, or a man who aims at over throwing a railway train, it was impossible to forctel what persons might be sacri ficed, what lives lost, what property wasted, the happiness of how many homes destroyed, before the game of Fenianism was played out. At the same time, though all the eloquence and in genuity of certain politicians have been exerted in vain to elevate BunKE into a hero or a martyr, the decision which the Government arrived at, iu ad vising her MAJESTY to exercise her prerogative of mercy on his behalf, was undoubtedly a wise and seasonable one. Th., public feeling both in Eng land and in Ireland has been strongly expressed in favour of a remission of his sentence, and a consti tutional Government can, without lowering its dignity, show some deference to the general wish of the community. Lord DERBY, in msking his statement to the Upper House, referred to the ex treme doubt and difficulty of the Ministerial posi tion. There was little palliation, he observed, for the guilt of BURKE, since it was not a case arising out of civil war, in which interests and principles were involved and passions excited, and in which all parties were bound to loJk with indulgence on the conduct of those who have been worsted ; but it was a case of unprovoked attack upon a peace ful community. No thanks, raid Lord DERBY, are due to BURKE, that the country was not de luged in blood. And even as it is, with the worst evils altogether avoided, thanks to the timely warn ing and provisions of the Government, the effects have been sufficiently serious. " The course pursued by these criminal men has had the effect of creating universal panic throughout Ireland, of breaking down confidence between man and man, of subjecting a large portion of the country to loss of property, to insecurity of life, to the necessity of taking steps for self-preservation, of producing, in short, a state of things which has put back the in creasing prosperity of Ireland for I know not how many years." These things must not be forgotten, because the principal offender has escaped the full penalty of the law, and he must not be elevated into a martyr or a hero whom the authorities fear to strike. A strong Government can afford to be magnanimous, and English authority will have gained far more than it has lost by this concession. Lord DERBY expressed his hope that a good effect would be produced upon the warm and grateful hearts of the Irish peasantry, and he did not hesitate to ad ►nit that the Government had been strongly in- fluenced by the expression of public feeling both in this country and in Ireland. Ln fact the Lord- Lieutenant himself communicated with the Govern ment in favour of the commutation of the sentence, although he was formerly disposed to let the law take its course. Both Houses received the intima tion with marks of approval, and the Chancellor of the Exchequer, on his part, expressed a confident hope that this exercise of the loyal prero- gative would be attended with the best results Mr. DISRAELI observed very truly that when public feeling was so much divided the deterrent effect desired would not be likely to be produced. We must hope that we have nearly seen the last of these mischievous attempts, and that the mercy of the Crown will serve to convince those who are misled by the ingenuity of interested agitators that English rule is something different from a reign of terror. If BURKE is to be remembered as one of the last of the Fenian loaders no one will envy him his notoriety. Irish affairs occupied a good deal of attention in the House of Lords last evening, since, after some debate about the new Judges, Lord DERBY had to resume the subject of Fenianism by moving the second reading of the Habeas Corpus Suspension Act Continuance Bill. It is the second time that Parliament has been asked to sanction this proceed ing, which of course met with no direct opposition. Lord RUSSELL criticised some minor details of the Ministerial conduct, but did not hesitate to express his belief that the manner in which the former Act had been carried out did the greatest credit to the moderation as well as to the vigilance of her MAJESTY'S Government in Ireland. Lord RUSSELL touched upon a few of the more prominent Irish grievances, and said he thought it was time to consider, now that sixty-six years had elapsed since the Union, whether the mind and heart of Ireland could not be conciliated and brought into unison with this country. Until Fenianism is finally and effectually disposed of, however, no such measures cen be tried; and so far from the outrageous con duct of these Irish-American emissaries affording a reason for attempting to make legislative conces sions, it is opposing serious obstacles. The chief claim of Ireland upon the attention of Parlia ment is furnished by the loyal and praise worthy conduct of the mass of the people during the recent disturbances. The Government are anxious to secure the passage of the bill forthwith, in order ' that no time may be lost in obtaining the Royal assent, and accordingly the third reading was fixed for to-day. There is not much reason to appre hend at the present time that they will be any in clination to withhold justice and equity from her MAJESTY'S Irish subjects ; and, notwithstanding the many difficulties that are in the way, we may hope that brighter days are in store for that much tried country, whose worst enemies have always been her pretended friends. The House of Commons did a great deal last night, and we may now conclude that their chief difficulties in the progress of the Reform Bill are put out of the way. The standing orders have been altered, and the new plan begins to-shy, which will in itself greatly expedite things, and must tend to the more speedy settlement of affairs. The Com pound Hutiseholdyr may now be said to be fairly extinguished, whit:h is a very desirable conclusion to have come to. It may fairly be said that this matter of the Compound Ilonseholda has occasioned more confusion than anything else in the course of the reform measure before Parliament, and hence its importance was great, and the House may well be congratulated upon having disposed of it. 'The third and fourth sections of the clause were struck out on the suggestion of Mr. ATRTON, these being the vexatious parts of the scheme. In consequence of this wise determination the affair was happily disposed of, and we may take a long farewell of this mysterious and danger ous personage who seems only to have been called into existence for the purpose of distracting all con- THE SUN, LOMMS, TUESDAY EVENING, MAY 28, 1867. caned in the affair, and upon whom devolved the duty of carrying out a measure of Reform. In the orune of some observations which he made last Licht, Mr. DISRAELI took occasion to advert to the charges which had been brought against the Go vernment of having committed a breach of faith in respect to the arrangements made between them and the house. Ile addressed a fitting re proof to those who had committed them selves in the matter of expressing such strong opinions, and showed that since he had con sidered the business of the House he had never at any time entered into engagements which he had not scrupulously fulfilled. We think it was just as well for the right hon. gentleman to have spoken upon the subject, because many persons not well versed in Parliamentary matters may be led astray by the delusive re narks of those who pretend to know a great deal. Mr. GL kDSTONE, much to his credit, said decidedly that he had not the least " hesitation in saying that there was no charge of breach of faith that can lie against the right honourable gentleman," which expression was received with cheers Cram both sides of the House. There are surely many ways in which those opposed to the leaders of party can express their dissatisfac tion and disapproval without resorting to abuse and setting up charges which cannot be substan tiate 1. The extreme Reformers of the present day entirely repudiate the idea which once found favour of recognising the merits of their opponents— " And that stern which warriors feel In foemen worthy of their steel," is quite unknown to them, for all who do not im plicitly fall in their wake are held up to scorn and opprobrium. Emboldened by their ventures respecting the com pound householder, the house proceeded to discuss the county franchise. A half-way plan was agreed to between the proposal of the Government for a £l5 qualification and that of Mr. LOCKE KING for £lO, Sir E. DERING'S proposal of twelve pounds being taken, and Mr. LOCKE KING wisely assented to it. In some respects last nigh6's work was the most re markable that has yet been done by the House since the commencement of the debates on the Reform Bill. Moro was got through, and there is more to look at to-day as the consequence of the discussions. Indeed it is not always that those nights which are the most exciting are the most eventful. Occasionally it is so, as in the case of the great division which took place be fore Easter ; but upon ordinary occasions it is found that the dullest evenings are often the most useful ones. Either the task of extinguishing the compound householders or of settling the occupa tion franchise in counties would have been enough to make yesterday memorable ; but the combina tion of the two achievements is alike satisfactory and encouraging. To-day, under the new regime, the house will set to work in right earnest to get through the remainder of their complicated task, and they may be certain that the sympathy and good wishes of the public will go with them. Now that the real dangers that menaced this measure of Reform seem practically removed, we can afford to look forward with confidence to the end in view, and to realise in some degree the advantages which will be denied by the country at large. It has been the fashion in certain quarters to abuse or vilify the present Ilouse of Commons, but surely those changes may be said to be unfounded which have been brought against it, and those aspersions upon its character and good faith may be termed slanders. The members of the lower branch of the Legislature have indeed hAd no easy task of it this year, and it has been mainly owing to the discernment and constancy of the How: collectively that those obstacles have been surmounted which were at ono time deemed insuperable by competent judges. While upon this theme we must bear testimony to the great services which have been rendered to the cause by the Chancellor of the Exchequer. In fighting the battles of his colleagues he has led not only his party to victory, but has enabled the house of Com mons to satisfy the just demands and expectations of the people. Only those who are well versed in Parliamentary tactics can rightly estimate the diffi culties which have beset the right hon. gentleman, but the general results of his work will be appre ciated far and wide ; and, perhaps, he bas distin guished himself in nothing more than in the moderation which he has throughout displayed in very trying circumstances; at any rate the session of 1867 will be a good exception to the many which preceded it, and shine out as a bright and particular star in the Parliamentary horizon ; and we hope that in the years to come, when many of this generation are at rest from their labours, the measure of Reform which it will have been its boast to have c ►rried will be prized by them for whom it was framed, and prove to have been productive of much, if not of all, those bene fits which were expected from it. CORRESPONDENCE FROM PARIS. (FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.) PARIS, Monday Evening. The Moniteur states that a ;telegram, transmitted by the Atlantic ca bl e , an d d ated Mexico, May gives news from Queretaro, a fortnight later than had been before received in Europe. The'city con tinued to maintain its defence, and the besiegers had not been able to make any advance. On Saturday afternoon, the Prince and Princess Royal of Prussia were received by the Emperor and Empress at a private audience at the Tuileries. Count de Goltz, Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary of the King of Prussia, preceded their Royal Highnesses. After the audience the individuals composing the service of the Emperor and Empress, and those in the service of the Prince and Princess, were mutually introduced. The Court carriages with the usual ceremony were sent to the Prussian Embassy, in the Rue du Lille, to convey the Prince and Princess to the Tuileries, and they were reconducted to that hotel with the same cere monial. Prince 'Napoleon and the Princess Clotilde have arrived at Turin, in order to be present at the marriage of Prince Amedee, of Savoy, with the Duchess d'Aoste. They were cordially received at the railway station by the. Royal Princes, the authorities, and the population. The following extract of a letter from Djeddah is interesting :—" The account received from Mecca respecting the great festival of Kourban Beiram, which was attended by an immense number of per sons, is that the sanitary state of the pilgrims is excellent. The Governor-General of Hedjaz and the Grand Cherif of Mecca, according to iustruc _tions which they had received from Constantinople, 'Lid previously taken all the necessary precautions, and there as well as at Djeddah all the sanitary precautions vcommended by the Internation.:l SAnitary Conferenc; of Cons ant:nople had been adopted. No ease of contagious malady has been reported, and but few deaths had taken place, and they only arose from the fatigue of the journey. Considerable numbers of pilgrims were beginning to arrive at Djeddah, where arrangements had been made for their embarcation and to avoid crowding on board the vessels which were to convey them to their destination. _ _ _ To the list of Sovereigns attracted to Paris by the great Exhibition may be added the King of Sweden and the reigning Princes of Servia and Moldo- Wallachia. They will come, it is said, in the course of June. The Emir Abd-el-Fader, accompanied by his two sons, is also expected in Paris. To-day an establishment has been opened at the Exhibition► which, if not attractive from beauty or novelty, is of a highly useful and philanthropic character. It is a maternal school opposite the Catholic Chapel. The principle of instruction is that prescribed for all juvenile asylums, that of making the first study of infancy as agreeable and as easy as possible. Deaf and dumb children will re ceive instruction at the school. The rumour in the fashionable world is that the fête to be given to-morrow by the Austrian Am bassador will be one of marvellous splendour. The garden of the Embassy will be transferred into a ball-room to be connected with the reception rooms. Princess Metternich has ordered a quantity of the richest silks from Lyons for the decoration of the rooms. There will be a magnificent display of flowers and exotics, and the electric light will in crease the splendour of the scene. The Abbe Court, many years curate of Nanterre, has just died. He it wai who, for many successive years, crowned the rosiercs at the fete of which I h to speak only a day or two ago. A German paper states that an extremely rich vein of silver has been discovered in Bohemia, at a great depth below the level of the sea. This vein of silver is in the mine of St. Adalbert, which last year fur nished more than half of the silver and lead which were extracted from the mines of Pizifram. The weather is still unsettled and stormy. This morning there was white frost in the fields in the vicinity of Paris, but as the day advanced it became warm. Fahrenheit's thermometer in doors marked 70 degrees at 2 o'clock. A writer in the Constitei tionnel to-day contrasts the weather in France and England. lie says—" Iu England the climate is damp. It rains almost every day. The land is therefore constantly wet. In France, with the ex ception of the departments to the north of Paris, the climate of which resembles that of England, the land is in a very different condition. In the centre of France, and particularly in the south, four or five months often pass without rain. The land, therefore, quite contrary to the case in England, is, generally speaking, very dry." The Journal des Debats, in reference to the visit of the Prince and Princess Royal of Prussia to Paris, expresses its regret that just at this time the Prussian Press has adopted a rough and ungracious tone towards France. That journal seems to fore see some difficulty about the disposition of Prussia in regard to article five of the Treaty of Prague, according to which Prussia engaged to consult the inhabitants of the northern part of Schleswig upon the point whether they would remain Prussians or again become Danes. The Debats quotes some re torts from German papers of authority, according to which the Danish Government has addressed a cir cular letter to all the great Powers, insisting upon the strict execution of the fifth article of the treaty. " If this news be accurate," says the Debats," it is not without importance. Prussia cannot refuse to execute the treaty." In order that your readers may more completely appreciate the bearing of this article, it may be well to state that several Paris papers, some of them having much authority and influence, affect to consider that the new treaty has only patched up the difficulties of the position, and that Prussia will seize an early opportunity of en gendering fresh complications. It is very satisfactory and flattering to English skill and industry to find that the French papers agree in the pre-eminence of England in some de partments of art and manufacture. A writer in the Siecle, who inspected some articles exhibited in the stand of Messrs. C. F. Hancock, Son, and Co., speaks of them as unsurpassed by the French ma nufacturers in the same branches. This eminent firm has just added more wonders to the Exhibi tion. The first addition is a magnificent solid silver cup in the Renaissance style of art. The subject is the Earl of Richmond proclaimed as Henry the Seventh, after the defeat of Richard the Third on the battle-field of Bosworth. Lord Stanley is represented as placing the crown upon the Monarch. All the personages are in bold relief. The figure of Fame is peculiarly artistic and ex pressive. This gem was manufactured expressly for the Exhibition, and is well worthy of it. The other magnificent addition to the Exhibition is a silver vase, intended to represent Prince Edward reselling Henry the Third at the battle of Evesham. This unegnalle I specimen of art is in the pure Florentine 'style. The handles are formed of winged figures of Fame. At the base are dragons holding shields descriptive of the subject. The tracery is of exquisite delicacy and finish. These articles excite a dmiration from all. THE LUXEMBURG THE &TY. -,11.--.__ The following is believed to be the correct text of the treaty for the neutralisation of Luxemburg re cently concluded at London :-- 6 In the name of the Alost Holy and Indivisible . .

" His MajestytheKing of the Netherlands, Grand Duke of Luxemburg, taking into consideraiton the change produced in the situation of the Grand Duchy, owing to the dissolution of the ties which as their pleni potentiaries, to conclude a a ttached it to the former Germanic Confederatio n , has invited their M a j e sties the Emperor of the French, the Emperor of Au stria, the Queen of Eng land, the King of the Belgians, the Ki ng o f P russ i a , and the Emperor of al l the Russias to assemble their representatives in Conference in London, in order to come to a n unde rstanding with the pleni potentiaries of his Majesty the King Grand Duke as to the new arrange ments to be concluded in the general interest of pe ace.

The principle is and remains placed under the sanction of the col lective guarantee of the signatary Powers to this present treaty with the exception of Belgium, which is itself a neutral State. ___ " The Grand Duchy of Luxemburg being neu tralised in the terms of the preceding article, the maintenance or establi s hment of strong places upon ts tc: ritory becomes needless and without object.

Conformably with the stipulations contained in Articles 2 and 3, his Majesty the King of Prussia declares that his troops at present garrisoning the fortress of Luxemburg shall receive orders to proceed to the evacuation of that place immediately after the exchange of the ratifications of this present treaty. A commencement will simultaneously be made with removing the artillery, munitions, and all objects forming part of the appurtenances of the said strong place. During this operation there shall only remain the number of troops necessary to watch over the safety of the war material, and to effect its removal, which shall he completed with the least possible delay. "5. His Majesty the King Grand Duke, by virtue of the rights of sovereignty he exercises over the town and fortress of Luxemburg, engages upon his part to take the necessary measures for converting the said strong place into an open town by means of such demolition as his Majesty shall judge sufficient to fulfil the intentions of the high contracting Powers expressed in Art. 3 of this present treaty. The works required for this purpose will commence immediately after the retreat of the garrison. They shall be carried out with all the circumspection the interest of the inhabitants of the town demand. His Majesty the Grand Duke further promises that the fortifica tions of the town of Luxemburg shall not in future be re-established, and that no military establishment shall either be maintained or created at that place. " 6. The signatory Powers to this present treaty recognise that the dissolution of the Germanic Con federation having equally brought about the disso lution of the ties that united the Duchy of Limburg collectively with the Grand Duchy of Luxemburg to the said Confederation, it results therefrom that the relations mentioned in Arts. 3,4, and 5 of the treaty of April 19, 1839, between the Grand Duchy and certain territories appertaining to the Duchy of Limburg, have ceased to exist—the said territories continuing to form an integral part of the kingdom of the Netherlands. " 7. This present treaty shall be ratified, and its ratifications shall be exchanged at London within the period of four weeks, or earlier if possible. "In faith of which the respective plenipotenti aries have signed the treaty, and appended to it the seal of their arms. "Done at London, this 11th May, 1867.
