The letters which Rear-Admiral Sir CHARLES NAPIER has from time to time addressed through the columns of the public press to Lord JouN RUSSELL are, indeed, worthy of calm and attentive considera tion. A more trustworthy and in every respect unexceptionable witness could not be found than the Hero of Acre with respect to the required reforms in the naval administration of the country. Who more competent to speak of the abuses that have prevailed in the Admiralty than one of the most distinguished officers of the present or of any age, who owes his promotion to his own gallant actions, his indomitable courage, and his thorough knowledge of his Frofession, aid not to any favour or affection on the part of the ruling powers ? Who:better qualified to expose dockyard mismanagement than the person who has made himself completely acquainted with all the details of business, and who has furnished the most successful plans for the construction of steam frigates ? The very ,name of Sir CHARLES NAPIER carriEsiwith it a weight and influence that must com pel the attention of Parliament to the subject on which he writes. Although justly complaining of the enormous expenditure under which the country groans, that distinguishel officer would not in any degree impair the power or lessen the efficiency of " our wooden walls." On the contrary, he has not hesitated to point out clearly and distinctly the existing deficiencies in that most important branch of the national service. He has as readily pointed out the matters in which additional expenditure is required as those in which great reductions might be made. His sole object manifestly is the good of the service of which he is so distinguished a member. For that purpose he comes forward, disregarding equally the censures of those who declare " that our weak points should not be revealed to our adversaries," and of the Board of Admiralty, who will not relish the hold attacks on the gross mismanagement which he has so unsparingly exposed. The constitution of the Board itself naturally forms one of the most prominent grounds of complaint. The anomaly of placing a civilian, utterly unacquainted with naval affairs, at the head of the Admiralty—of rendering the place of "First Lord" a mere political appointment, without reference to the services or the qualifications of the individual selected, is freely com mented on. How could any business, public or pri vate, be properly conducted if placed under the control of a person utterly ignorant of its details, and unable to form a sound opinion on the matters that may from time to time be submitted to his considera tion ? If any private firm were to pursue a course so ridiculously absurd they would speedily appear in the Gazette, however ample their resources, and the pre siding Commissioner would justly punish the gross fa tuity that wasted the creditors' money. But the Board of Admiralty have the national Exchequer to sport with, and any blunders will be glossed over while a prominent member of the party in power presides over the department. Nor are the subordinate members of the Board selected on a better principle. If the naval lords were chosen merely fur their professional qualifications—if a seat at the Board were a prize that might be looked to as the reward of distinguished merit, the blunders and incapacity of the civilian might possibly be neut-alind by the efficiency of his a-:sociates But it has lung been noto rious that the beat qualified and most competent men are not selected fur the situation ; that the Admiralty is in fact a mere political machine, the members of which are appointed for their party and Parliamen tary influence, rather than for their professional attainments ; that they are chosen (as the Gallant Admiral states) fur their ability to " make a House, keep a House, and cheer the Minister," and not for their capacity to "make a fleet, guide a fleet, and rule the various branches of that complicated service." The choice, in fact, according to the present system, is not merely limited to officers belonging to the Ministerial party, but to those of that party who have been so fortunate as to obtain seats in Parliament and to be tolerably certain of their re-election in the event of new writs being moved for on their accept ance of office. _ _ Under a governing body so constituted it may easily be imagined that abuses and jobbing will prevail through all branches of the service. Patronage is one of the chief, if not the principal object of " My Lords"—they must be enabled to reward their con stituents, and advance the interests of their party. Hence the enormous list of officers unemployed, whose services could not possibly be required. Hence it is that on the lit day of January, 1849, we find in the "Navy List" the names of no less than 150 fl tg-officers, exclusive of 45 retired rear-admirals, of 532 post captains, besides 182 retired captains ; of 864 commanders, and 351 retired commanders u nder the different orders of Council of 30th of January, 1816, Ist November, 1830, and 18th May, 1846, and of 2,310 lieutenants. The exigencies . of the service could never by any io possibility .e require one fourth of these numbersemployment; rhel7h ig or T o b r but the Minister of the day, wh t ethe t distribution burdened w with desires to propitiate his friends b patronage, and the country is ther y efore an enormous and most unnecessary expenditure. The case is now, however, fairly before the public, and it remains to be seen w hether the o pp res sed tax payers will sanction tile perpetua•ion of the system, o whether they w ill join with Sir CHARLES NAPIER in declaring that First Lords, whoever they may be y must be taut that the pr .m iti ons in the nav y are intended for the public good, and nut to be exclusively bestowed on private and political hinds." Mr. DisuAELI'S speech at Aylesbury, at the recent meeting of the Royal Bucks Agricultural Association, is calculated to afford consolation and encouragement to the agricultural body—consolation under their griev ances ,whether real or imaginary, and encouragement in their endeavours to effect the amelioration of their con dition. It is hardly possible for a man of more than ordinary ability, such as the Hon. Member for Buck inghamshire, to deliver a discourse on any saject whatsoever that shall not contain some reflections worthy of general attention, and calculated to elicit the admiration even of those who do not generally agree with him. So it was in this instance. The staunchest supporter of the Anti-Corn .law League could not possibly withhold his approbation from the sentiments conveyed in the following truly eloquent observations. Although considering the agriculture of England to be the most perfect that ever existed, Mr. DISRAWLI thus admitted the possibility of its further improvement :—" That it is possible to improve our present system of cultivation I am not one to deny. I believe that everything may be made the source of improvement, and that the more you im prove the more room there is for further improve ment. I ask you what is improvement but realised intelligence r And the instant you increase that intel ligence you increase the means of exercising it." Improvement is realised intelligence. This sentence, as beautifully expressed as it is truthfully conceived, is a worthy definition of the age in which we live. The intelligence of the nineteenth century, the de velopment of centuries, is becoming realised around us in improvements of all kinds and cha racter. Improvements in laws and triodes of government, otherwise called reforms; improvements in science and mechanical art, better known as irr ventions—improveraents so various that their enume ration is impossible, are the realities which attend the intelligence of the present day. How dissimilar is our condition, and how superior are our advantages, mental, social, and political, to those of our forefathers some centuries back ! What then ?—are we arrived at the ne plus ultra of progress ? On the contrary. "Improvement is realised intelligence, and the instant you increase that intelligence you increase the means of exercising it." Every improvement leads the way to others. In ancient times man looked upon the water as an insuperable barrier, after a while, however, he hazarded his rude built craft upon its bosom, and found himself en abled to traverse some tiny stream. Mahe rest satisfied with that achievement ? Intelligence realised in that instance at once suggested new improvements, and now, in place of one shaky vessel, the ocean is studded with magnificent ships, and when the branch of a tree, slowly paddled on the resisting water, now steam—" unrivalled steam"—annihilates time and space. So it is in all things, and so it must be. The leader of the Protectionists displayed no small amount of tact in thus directing the attention of his agricultural hearers to the subject of present and future improvement, instead of encouraging lamenta tions for the past. However much we differ with the Honourable Gentleman on some important points, our admiration for his undoubted talents make us regard with satisfaction every expression, like the sentence above quoted, which exhibits a wish to en courage and stimulate individual and social exertion. Men of genius are or should be the true leaders of the people. They should animate them to look for ward hopefully and struggle on enduringly— " So to act that each to-morrow Finds them further than to-day." We gladly hail Mr. DISRAELI'S speech at Ayles bury as an omen of future service in so good a cause —a cause which the author of " Sybil" has already so eloquently advocated. THE ST'S, LONDON,, MATUR DAY EVENING, ..___SEPTEMBEn 1& 1F14.0. NIONLY and COMMERCIAL NEWS. CITY, QUARTER TO THREE. There was a steady market for Cotton at Liverpool yesterday. The saes were about 4,000 boles, nearly all to the trade.—The market, for R. Shares was fluc tuating, and closed weakly. The Bank ot England's weakly return, to Saturday last. is of no particular interes - • The amount of notes out with the public was smaller, but this is only to a slight extent, the result of an abridged discount busi ness, the amount paid in to the Bank to the credit of the National Treasury being considerable, and in excess by 431„0001. of the sum withdrawn by private depositors. The value of money is certainly higher in the City than it was a week or two since, but as yet the Lombard street firms compete successfully with the Bank, in the vaults ot which specie, in the meantime, is still accumu lating. Compared with the previous week, the results are as follows: Notes Issued Decrease Rest ••• ••• ••• ... 27,908,230 ••• ••• ••• 10,820 ... 3,575,909 ••• ••• Increase 1,548 Public Deposits ... ... 6,972,850 Increase 635,760 Other 1 )eposits ... 9,065,606 Decrease 204.505 Seven Day and other Bills ... 1,029 651 crease 29,990 Government Securities ...

Paper at 90 days on Paris was negotiated at 25 65 to 70, on Hamburgh at 13 13+ to 13i, on Amster dam at 12 3:1 to 4, and on Trieste at 11 12 to 15. The exports of the precious metals from London during the week to Thursday last comprised 73,700 ounces of silver to Hamburgh, Belgium, and Naples, and 270 ounces of gold to Hamburgh. The advices to hand this morning from Leeds, Man chester, and the w her principal seats of manufacturing i , tdustry, notice less activity, and the non-arrival of the Hibernia, has contributed to the dullness of the Cotton trade. The Lisbon Board of Health have declared Altona to be a suspected port. The advices received this morning from Berlin, Vienna, Frankfurt and Amstt rdani notice active markets for the Public Securities, and the Dutch are stated to be large buyers. Railway Shares have been in request in the German markets, especially the guaranteed lines. The Hibernia steamer is still due, and high rates of insurance are asked upon her at Lloyd's. The half-yearly meeting of the South Eastern and Continental Steam Navigation Company has just been held, and a dividend of 4s. per share has been declared. In Home Mining Shares a good business has been done this week at Rill prices, and Foreign Mines have also been in several instances in request. The English Stock Market is exceedingly dull, but prices remain about the same as yesterday. Consols, 92+ t for Money, and 92} for Account; Exchequer bills 35s to 38s. premium; and India Bonds, 725. to 765. premium. The Foreign Bonds are merely nominal, the only actual bargains being in Dutch Two-and-a-Half per Cents. at 54i, and in Brazilian New at 85i. The Share Market is miserably depressed again, and prices are all lower. Finding that continual loss results of late from Bulling, many have changed their tack, and joined the Bears.

Conjectures are still rife as to the modification of the Cabinet in conseVence of the difficulties of the Roman question. That M. DE FALLOUX'S continuance in the Cabinet is only temporary is certain. Already he has dis continued his attendance at the councils which take place in the Elysia. So much, indeed, is acknow ledged even by the Constitutionnel, though that journal attributes the absence of the Minister of Instruction to indisposition. According to the same authority, it is tolerably certain that after all General RANDOM will not be appointed the successor of General ROSTOLAN. The fact of the the former General being a Protestant is regarded as an insuperable difficulty. The Pairie states that, according to dispatches re ceived at the Ministry of the Interior, six of the Councils General have come to a resolution in favour of an early revision of the Constitution. In the number of the Departments which have come to this decision is the Gironde. The Moniteur cant-tins an order from M. BREEN GEN, president of the High Court of Justice, fixing the 10th of October for the opening of the trial at Versail'es of the persons implicated in the conspi racy of June 13, 1849; also of such persons as are accused of being concerned in the affair of May 15, 1848, but who had not made their appearance at the High Court of Justice held at Bourges. According to the Toulonnais, an expedition is now fitting out as ith the utmost celerity to make a demonstration against Tangier, and subsequently to take up a position on the coast of Morocco, in the event of the EMPEROR proving obdurate in his re fusal to attend to the complaints of the French Re public. The expedition is to be composed of four line-of battle ships—the Friedland, bearing the flag of Admiral PARSEVAL-DESCHENES, the officer in com mand, the Jena, the Hercule, and the Inflexible ; four steam frigates—the Descartes, the Christophe- Coloinb, the Cacique, and the Montezuma; and one steamer as an advice boat, the Tartare. Six com panies of the 3d Marines, under the command of M. CHAYANNES, chef de bataillon, and a company of marine artillery, in all about 700 men, have been placed on board the above vessels. The expedition was expected to sail on the 12th, and it was thought that Spain would avail herself of the same opportu nity to have her wrongs expiated by the Emperor of Moaocco. The PRESIDENT of the Republic on Thursday distributed, in the Orangerie of the Louvre, the prizes to the exhibitors deemed worthy of encourage ment for the articles which they had displayed at the late Exhibition of National Industry. He presented the Cross of the Legion of Honour to MM. Cu. L. NIULLER, C. FLERS, J. DUPRE, RAFFET, Cu. TROYON, A ÜBRY LECOMTE, and J. SECHAN. The following is the speech which the PRESIDENT delivered on the occasion : " I did not wish to cede to any one the pleasure and the right I have to present you with the recompenses which are your due. The sweetest prerogative of power is to encourage merit wherever it is to be met with. I have admired the masterpieces which you have offered to the public this year, in the exhibition of painting and culpture. and I am rejoiced to testify to the great re sults of French artists in presence of a political agitation which must have engrossed much of their attention and leisure. " I hope that next year's exhibition will be even better then the present. The Emperor, in addressing his soldiers, said, That there was never anything done as long as there was still something to du.' Double your efforts to contribute your share towards the glorification of the French name. Let us encourage and honour the fine arts, fur they tend to soften our woes and enhance our jo)s. " Be assured that I shall watch your progress with the greatest solicitude, and you may rely upon the interest I shall always take in your noble labours." Both at the arrival and the departure of the PRE SIDENT at the Orangerie, be was saluted with shouts of " Vive Napoleon !" " Vive le President de la Re publique !" Considerable apathy was observable at the Bourse to-day in consequence of the absence of all political news, and but little business was transacted. The Five per Cents. opened at 88f. 25c., rose to 881. 55c., and closed at 88f. 40c. The Three per Cents. closed on the Paris Bourse, on Friday, at 55f. 95c.; the Five per Cents. at 88f. 40c.: Orl, ans Railroad Shares, 755 f.; Rouen, 530 f. ; Great Northern, 440 f.; Avignon, 225 f. , Vierzon, 312 f. 50c. ; Basle, 103 f. 75c ; Bordeaux, 407 f. 50c.; Paris and Strasburg, 356 f. 25c. ; Tours and Nantes, 3031. 75c.

SPAIN. Madrid journals of the 9th inst. have arrived. A Cabinet Council was held on the preceding day, when the new tariff progressed. Senor SEIJAS was expected from Grenada on the 13th to eater en his dut►es as Minister of Commerce. A letter from Algeciras states that the war steamers Alerts and Cid, and an . American ship freighted for the purpose, had left for Melilla, conveying the 3d battalion of the Almansa regiment, and a squadron of cavalry, with 600 to 600 volunteers of the Ceuta regiment, who had been promised by the Captain• General to kaave their discharge at the end of the campaign. Provisions were scarce at Melilla, and the Moors had cut off the usual supplies of meat, fowls, eggs, &c. 'There was no Bourse on the 9th, being Sunday, though some business was done outside, the:three per Cent& at 271. GERMANY AND THE NORTHEN,N STATES. AUSTRIA AND HUNGARY. After all it appears from the Vienna journals of the 9th instant that not only has Comorn seriously resolved upon a resistance, but that General KLAPKA —represented recently in some reports as incapaci tated from:. illness, and in others as having hastened to Dotis to deliver himself up to the Austrians—is actually at this moment, and has been all along at Comorn, carrying out at all hazard the orders of the Council of War in that fortress. We state this fact on the authority of the Journal des Dibats of yes terday. In a few days there will be held at Vienna impor tant conferences upon the affairs of the Hungarians, in which conferences, under the Presidency of the young EMPEROR, the following will take part :—AI! the Ministers, with Generals RADETZKY, HAYNAU. JELLACEIICH, HESSE, and Baron GERINGER. General DEMBINSKI'S son, now under arrest during two months, has not yet been liberated. From Cracow we learn that lately the house of Hosoowsm, the brother-in-law of General BEM, had been searched in the vain hope of discovering some important docu ments. On the sth instant the son of Prince PASKE - WITCH passed through Ratibor, on his way from Warsaw to Vienna, carrying a chest of Austrian colours lately taken from the Hungarians. Intelligence via Agram states that the fortress of Peter wardein surrendered on the sth inst., at four o'clock in the afternoon. Kiss, like a true patriot. had adopted every possible means to prevail upon the garrison to continue its defence. The beseiging force around Comorn is estimated at 60,000. There is every prospect that they will have to employ fire and sword before they can reduce the courage of the,20,000 heroic Magyars under KLAPKA, still holding out in that citadel of Hungarian pa triotism. At Vienna it is rumoured at one moment that FRANZ JOSEPH is about to espouse the Grand Duchess HELENA of Russia, at another that he is already be trothed to the Princess ALEXANDRIA of Saxony. PRUSSIA. After attending at the conference in Tceplitz, it appears that the King of PRUSSIA also took part with the Auf=trian EMPEROR and the King of SAXONY in the subsequent conference holden at Pilnitz. On the 11th, at Berlin, during the splendid review on the plains called Hasen-haide, about two miles from the capital, the KING was attended by Prince CHARLES and his gallant son Prince CHARLES FREDERICK, the young son of Prince ALBRECHT, and a numerous and brilliant suite, at the head of whom was General WRANGEL. The QUEEN, Princess of PRUSSIA, Princess CHARLES, and her fair daughter, accompanied by their ladies and attendants, were on the ground, and added to the beauty of the scene. The troops assembled consisted of six regiments of cavalry (24 squadrons), three and a half batteries (30 field•pieces), with 19 battalions of infantry, of which 13, including Rifles, were of the Guard, the remainder of the line, and the 9th and 14th mostly Pomeranians, and all square-built, power ful men, equal almost in every point to the Guards. "the whole number present amounted to about 3,200 sabres and lances, and 12,000 infantry, with 30 field pieces—a flea-bite in Prussia, where masses of men can be brought together with facility, and where at this season there is ground sufficient to mancauvre 50,000 men. FRANKFORT-ON-THE-MAINE. On hearing of the interview between the Emperor of AusTaLt. and the King of PRUSSIA at Tceplitz and at Pilnitz, the Archduke J OHN is said to have expressed his great satisfaction, at the same time adding, that he trusted they had now almost reached the turning point of all their cares and anxieties. RUSSIA. All the Hungarian flags recently taken by the Russians will be forwarded to St. l'etersburgh. The following account of the infamous ARTHUR GxORGEY we translate from the Constitutionnel, and place among the Russian intelligence, regarding such communications as rather relating to Ru , sra than to Hungary. It is a passage ex tracted from a letter dated Kaschan, the Ist of September, and will be perused, we doubt not, with melancholy curiosity by all those who sympathise with us in our interest in everything referring to the fatal deception practised on Hungary. The writer speaks as follows :—" This day the modern CINCINNATUS (!), after having abdicated the sceptre of dictatorship (which he had held scarcely forty-eight hours!) to return to his plough or his homestead, passed through our town. lie is tall in stature, of powerful proportions, and has a light coloured moustache. He wears spectacles, and has his bead enveloptd in a capacious cap, which covers a wound received in the vicinity of Cornorn His person and his countenance are characterized by energy and decision. Shortly after his arrival the hotel into which be had retired was surrounded by a crowd of curious observers. By his side at table were his brother, his wife, and an Austrian Major. Several Russian officers, by whom he is greatly loved. pressed round the group to see him, and to cffcr hint their compliments and felicitatioes. He appeared to be in good spirits, and most amicably disposed to wards everybody. After dinner he started, with his companions, to Georg, a village situated in the district of Zipsa, and originally founded by his family. After having arranged some private business at this place he will hasten on to Graetz, where he will fix his residence." There let him remain henceforth in his infamous obscurity. TURKEY. Intelligence from Sendin of the sth states that the Russian General Lovenr has left Belgrade for Turkey on the 3d, with the SULTAN'S firman, to effect the arrest of KOSSUTH, DEanarNsm, and 190 other marked persons. England will look to Sir STRATFORD CANNING for the safety of KOSSUTH—for his preservation from the monsters who are now thirsting for his blood. ITALY. His Holiness Pope Pius IX. was received by the Neapolitans with acclamations and all military honours, the vessels and forts firing royal salutes, the flags flying, the bells ringing. At night, on the 4th, there was a general illumination and a discharge of fireworks. "Without stopping at Naples, the ships bearing the Holy Father and his august attendants passed on, amidst salvos of artillery, to Portici. In the Milan Gazette of the 6th inst. is announced the sudden death, on that very morning, of the vene rable chief priest of the metropolitan church of that city, the Count OPIZZONI. He died as he was pro ceeding in his vestments to the altar of the B. V., where he was about to say mass. Count OrprzoNi was one of the most distinguished among the ecclesi astics of Lombardy. The following details respecting the arrival of the Sovereign PONTIFF in the Bay of Naples on the 4th inst. will be found interesting; they are extracted from a private letter:-- " The Pope arrived here this afternoon at four o'clock. The squadron which accompanied him was composed o; a Neapolitan frigate, on board of which was his Holi ness, a Spanish frigate bearing an Admiral's flag, am the Vauban French steamer. These vessels were fol lowed by other Neapolitan steam frigates and a secont. Spanish frigate. These vessels, on entering the gull. atter having rounded Cape Mesins, did not immediate!) steer for Portici ; but they went round the bay and the quays of the city, as far as the entrance of the port for merchant vessels, doubtless for the purpose of allowing his Holiness to enjoy the magnificent coup d'ceil of thc city. During the 'whole evening the roads re echoer with the salutes fired from the vessels, and the firework: let off on the shore by the people, who never miss at opportunity, were it even the fete of the humblest Ma done, to fire off rockets and illuminate their houses ' from top to bottom. The French ships Ariel and Tan credo were dressed out with flags." It is expected that the Legislative Chambers of Tuscany will be re-opened in November. Accounts from Rome of the sth mention a decided difference of opinion to have arisen between the three Cardinal Commissioners. ArszEna and DELLA GENGA are opposed in policy to VANNICELLI. DELLA GENGA threatens to retire to Albano. The result o , this difference is expected to be the nomination of a single Pontifical Commissioner (ALTIEEI or Mks sazio)' assisted by two councillors, Coitsom Bussi and Morticuurz. France has declared herself in favour of the Statute; Austria for the Statute with out secularisation ; and Spain and Naples for the Governmental Council. Before his departure from Gaeta, the scene of ro many months exile, the Supreme PONTIFF revived in all its pomp one of the most ancient ceremonies of tin Catholic Church—the presentation of the golden rose, the Rosa d'Oro. The Latin oration, with which the Holy FATEIEB handed this superb jewel to the Queen tf NAPLES, was as follows : "Accipe rosam de manibus nostris, quam, Fz speciali commissione in Christo Patric et Dmnini nost‘i Pii Divina providentia Papa Noni nobis facia, tibi tradimus, per quam designatur gaudium utriusque therusaletn, beilicet triumphsntis et miiitantis Ecciesim, per quam omnibus Christi fidelibus manifestatur flos ille apeciosis simus, qui est gaudium et corona Sanctorum °rani= " Suscipiat Majestas tua, quas secundum seculum nobilis, potens et multa virtute prredua es, ut multa virtute a Christo Domino nobilitesis, tamquam rosa plantata super rivos aquarum multarum, quam gratiam ex sus infinita clementia tibi concedere dignetur, qui est Trinus et trnus in secula seculorum. Amen." In the course of the day the POPE gave a parting benediction, as well as substantial marks of his bounty to the garrison of the Castle and the population of Gaeta, and of Mola du Gaeta; and he received for the last time, the KING, QUEEN, and royal children, to whom he poured out all the effutdons of a grateful heart for the conolation they had afforded him during so long a separation from his own people. no Novo left, Gaeta at eight o'clock in the morn ing, on board the KING'S steam-yacht the Tancrede, under a salute of 120 guns from the Castle, and amidst the most enthusiastic acclamations of the multitude. Near Posilipo the squadron was saluted with 21 guns by her Britannic MAJESTY'S ship the Prince Regent. The royal salute had a splendid effect, and as the enthusiasm of the people was excited, their cheers were heard in the intervals of the firing, or rose above the roar of the artillery. Skirting the bay, the people presented themselves in crowds, full of delight and gaiety, waving hand kerchiefs and cheering, so that the Supreme PONTIFF must have been convinced that here at least he has the vast multitude on his side. The effect of the whole spectacle is said to have been " truly glorious." The POPE said mass on the 6th instant in the Cathedral of Naples, and all the nobility and people have flocked to see his HOLINESS, and pay him the horrvige of their love and respect. The personal appearance of this celebrated Pontiff is thus graphically described by one who has seen him both at Gaeta:and since his arrival at Naples : " I understand from those who were received by the Pope in the Palace at Portici that the impression made on me during the brief opportunity I had of examining his appearance is correct, and that I need not hesitate ;n saying,that the good old man is much changed during the three years of his agitated reign. His hair has be come nearly gray, and his countenance, though still retaining ail its saintly placidity, is marked by some lines of care. In fact, the expression of the face is the exact reflection of his mind, which, whilst resigned de voutly to the dispensation of Providence, cannot avoid suffering f‘r the sorrows it undergoes, ar.d the affliction which weighs so heavily on the people. The common plaster busts of Pio Neno are excellent likenesses, and thqi 4 who wish to study the combined expression of unaffected devotion, un bounded philanthropy, and saintly philosophy, will find them there united. Besides those religious qualities for which the Pope is so justly esteemed, all who have access to him are loud in praising the courteous and noble bear. ing with which he receives. He is a gentleman and a priest, and never was the Roman Catholic Church more worthily represented than by him. Unless on great oc casions, the Pope's costume is particularly simple. A friend of mine, who saw him yesterday, says he wore a soutaine, or cassock, of white thick muslin, coming down to his feet, and concealing all his under dress, a white skull cap, and slippers of white stuff embroidered in gold." GARIBALDI has been lodged in prison in Genoa. His wife is found really to have died from fatigue, in a state of pregnancy.

(Er ELECTRIC TELEGRAPH.) LIVERPOOL, SATURDAY, ONE P.M.—Calcraft, the public executioner, has just terminated the existence of the wretched culprit J. Gleeson Wilson, on the scaffold at Kirkdale Gaol, in the presence of the largest concourse of spectators that has probably ever been collected at Liverpool on a similar occasion. The miserable man's crimes were of the most appalling character; their equal in revolting atro city, possibly, is not to be found in the annals of such barbarous acts. By introducing himself into the d melling of Captain Hinrichson as a traveller, he, for no other apparent purpose than plunder, succeeded in savagely murdering Mrs. Ann Hinrichson, her two sons, Henry George and John Alfred, and the fourth victim, Mary Parr, the servant, by cutting their t'iroats, beating in their skulls, and otherwise fright fully mutilating them. For these atrocities he was tried at the last assizes, and left for death by Mr. Justice Patteson. The public may be aware that Captain Hinrichson, the deceased's husband, has only within the last week returned to England from a voyage to Calcutta. Never has a convict under sen tence of death exhibited such an amount of callous ness as Wilson, notwithstanding the exhortations of the Rev. Mr. Duggin, a Roman Catholic minister, who has been in daily, almost hourly, attendance upon him. An impression has been entertained that Captain Hinrichson confronted the culprit in the course of yesterday, the bereaved captain having expressed a desire to see him. Such, however, is not the case; the mate of his ship saw the convict in the condemned cell on Thursday night, by order of the authorities, in order to satisfy the public mind that he was not the carpenter who had formerly belonged to Captain Hinrich son's vessel. Twelve o'clock this day was the time appointed for carrying the dread sentence into effect, when there could tot have been less than from 20,000 to 30,000 persons collected. A few minutes after twelve Wilson was led forth on to the drop. He appeared remarkably firm, and while the preliminaries were being azranged not a muscle in his frame was seen to move. Scarcely three minutes elapsed ere the bolt was drawn, and the wretched man died after a few but severe struggles. He protested his innocence to the last.
