The friends of commercial reform in France were not, however, appalled at the obstacles in their path, but were resolved to wage their struggle until it was trium phant. (Cheers.) M. WOLOWSKI (Paris), amplifying the statement of the last deputy, said that, although France had yet much to accomplish before it could be said to enjoy commercial freedom, it had, nevertheless, made considerable progress in that direction, and the principles of free trade had there a body of illustrious champions, among whom were MM. Bastiat, L. Faucher, Blanqui, de Perron, &c., who by their eloquent and logical writings international demon strated that the only true bases of commerce were harmony and mutual confidence — not jealousy or antagonism. M. MOLINAIII (Brussels) stated the advantages that had been derived from the suspension for two years of the imposts on coal in Belgium, and re commended their permanent removal. Strong in- 1 fluences, he said, were at work to prevent the application of free trade to the home manufactures of that country, many departments of which, such as the woollen, cotton, and iron trades, were highly " protected," to the serious detriment of the consumer and the persons employed in their production. The interest taken in Belgium in the cause of reform might be judged of from the fact that the manufacturers of Verviers—an important seat of industry—had furnished a contingent of 200 adherents to the Congress. M. Molinari con cluded by referring to the existing treaty of com merce between France and Belgium, regarding the operation of which, he said, the most woeful pre dictions were hazarded, because it embodied an in fusion—infinitesimal, he thought—of free-trade principles. These evil presages had been entirely falsified by the event, and past experience would, in his opinion, fully justify the Government in ad vancing boldly in the same direction. Dr. BAMBERG (Berlin) described the origin and progress of the Zollverein and the working of the treaties concluded between that combination and the Baltic towns, Bremen, &cc., arguing that analo gous commercial confederacies might be established between other continental countries with advan tage to their commercial interests. The CHAIRMAN then took the sense of the meet ing in favour of passing to the second branch of the question submitted to the Congress. The decision was unanimous for that course ; and the other speakers who had observations to offer on the first section were requested to hand them in in writing to the bureau. M. PASCAL DUPRAT (Paris) next addressed the Conference. He passed in rapid review the vari ous obstacles which impede the development of un restricted exchanges, dividing them under the heads of physical obstacles arising from geogra phical position ; political obstacles, such as mutual jealousies, fomented by Governments ; and moral obstacles, engendered by ignorance, prejudice, and sectional privileges. The first class of impediments were being fast diminished by railways, steam com munication, and the electric telegraph ; the second would disappear under the operation of inventions which seemed destined ultimately to convert Europe into one nation. The worst antagonists of freedom of commerce were, of course, the factions of vested interest, who might, however, be brought to move forward in time, though doubtless only under compulsion. The orator then proceeded at great length, and in a very eloquent vein, to expa tiate on the fundamental principles of free trade, treating them consecutively in their commercial, social, political, and moral aspects. M. VANDERBRIICH (Central Agricultural Society of Belgium) dwelt upon the incubus which weighed down agriculture in that country in the shape of octroi duties, and recommended the abolition of the system of city dues, commercial taxes, and similar imposts on trade. A. proposal of this cha racter had been adopted that morning in the second section, and would be brought up at the subse quent sitting. M. MULLERDORFP (Chamber of Commerce, 1 , viers) followed in support of the same views, and combated the foolish dread that free trade would destroy home manufactures by inundating the countries adopting it with foreign products. Mr. OLIVEIRA, M. P. (whose remarks were much applauded), said he represented a very numerous body in England, whose object it was to obtain a reduction of the duty upon foreign wines. As he desired to be very brief, he would hand iu for pub lication a paper he had prepared, having reference to the various interests involved in this important subject. He argued that the high duty in England upon wines was in direct opposition to the doc trines of free trade. It had the effect of keeping down the revenue upon wines ; it produced among the English people the habit of consuming ardent spirits, which led to much demoralisation and crime; and it had the further injurious effect of giving France, Spain, and Portugal, as wine-pro ducing countries, an argument for maintaining a prohibitory tariff upon English manufactured ar ticles. Mr. H.

They had come from Biarritz in a plain, open carriage, without escort of any kind. A char-a-banc with six or seven persons belonging to the household, followed them. The Empress Eugenie presented herself asa Spanish woman genarally does When she 'attends a corridor. She was dressed in black, with a black mantilla—a French bonnet would have 'been a solecism, and one small red flower in her hair. Her beauty aill her gree', which her costume so well set off, excited adibiration, and her presence was hailed by re peated bursts of applause.

STAMPED f. ing one more to the list of Sydney Smith's foolish, but just and necessary wars,' and I am afraid we are now investing more in warlike preparations than ever we did at any former . period of peace ; nor ca'n it be denied that never in my experience were we, as a ration, giving so little attention to domestic reform as at present. It need not surprise us, then, if the improvement of the popula tion had not kept pace with the increase of our national wealth. But this only tends to prove that the moral fruits of our principles cannot be gathered by oee nation alone. It is only when freetrade shell have become the international code of the civilised world that its highest blessings will be realised in the purer spirit of forbear ance and justice which will characterise the intercourse of nations. And how is this consummation, so char to the heart of every genuine Freetrrvier, to he attained I "I bad the opportunity, a few years since, of study ing the position of the free-trade cause in nearly all the countries of Europe, and it was very similar to that in which we found it in England before the agitation of the League. Everywhere, as with us, there were three parties to the controversy—the Executive Government, the Protectionists, and the public ; and everywhere, as here, the monopolists, by pretending to represent the interests of the public, had contrived to secure a preponderance in the councils of the Government. Those very fallacies, protection to nationality,' in dependence of foreigners,' &c., which it had required a seven years' logical warfare to silence at home, I found still flourished in undisputed authority in every part of the Continent. But everywhere the Executive Government appeared to be awakening to the conscious ness that its interests were identical with those of the people at large, and that the Protectionist policy was incompatible with the prosperity of the public revenue. I confess that my chief hope rests on the poverty of the Continental Governments. The continual augmentation of their military establishments will compel them to enter upon a reform of their tariffs, as the only mode of enabling their peoples to support the constant increase of expenditure. There is scarcely a country in Europe whose revenues might not be largely augmented by abolishing its prohibitive and modifying its protective Custom duties. In this way a Peel or a Huskisson could, in France, Russia, or Spain, increase the anneal income several millions sterling, and give an indefinite expansion to the industry and wealth of the pe pie. "I will only take the liberty of adding that if I could have been present at your meeting, and my opinion had been asked as to the manner in which you may most effectually forward the great object you have in view, my answer would have been—By exhibiting to the surround ing nations the practical results of free trade in Belgium itself. I have watched with great interest the proceed ings of the Belgian Association, which remind me lure ibly of our own agitation. The speeches of your mer chants and manufacturers, with their practice' arguments and homely illustrations, cannot fail to enlist the moss of the people in your ranks. Perseverance alone is Uece eery to insure success. The prosperity which will ensue to your agriculture and m anufactures, and e-pecially to those protected industries now arrayed against you, evil offer a more powerful argument in favour of free trade to the ereat nations by which you are surrounded than any that can be derived from the reasonings of the econo mists. Let me not, however, be supposed to underrate the importance of your Congress. It was a noble idea which prompted you to throw open your stately halls to visitors from all parts of the world, thus evincing your faith in the universality of the truth of freeerado principles, by offering to prove their adap tation to the circumstances of tile earth's surface and to the wants of every race of men. Again accept my cerdial wish for the success of your demonstration, and "I remain, very sincerely yours, - RICHARD COBDEN. " M. Corr Vander Maeren, President of the Belgian Association fur Free Trade, Brussels." An international congress of homoeopathic doc tors opened to-day, and will sit till the 27th, in the hall of the Philharmonic Society of Brussels, Rue de I'Eveque. It is understood that the widow of Hahnemann, the founder of the homoeopathic sys tem, applied to be allowed to take part in the conference, but was refused on the ground that she had no professional diploma. This exclusion has provoked a rather animated discussion in certain circles here. THE IMPERIAL FAMILY OP FRANCE. - a gee?, Desperdicio, and Jove Carineria, alias II Panadero, or the Baker." Some years since Dte4peidicio. for some offence or other, quitted his country. Ha went to Stith America, and passed the period of his exile in the practice of the tanro magneia among the wild bulls of the pampas. He returned to Spy a when his "education" was com pleted, and he exhioited as a torero. He profited by his dfixperience, and was soon known in Anda lusia as one of the most successful pupils of the celebrated Chiclanero, and the most formidable rival of the Salamanquiuo. He was engaged this year in Madrid, where revolutions and coups d'etat never interfere with such sports, except when the principal actor, like Pucheta, engages in the equally dangerous profession of politics, and it was then that the Emperor's brother-in-law, the Duke of Alba, engaged him with his cuadrilla for Bayonne. The second espada was until lately a baker (pana 'dero) in Seville. The rising "artists," Jose Usa and Francisco Aragon, formed part of the troop. The picadores, or lancemen, were Jose Munos, who is well .known ill the towns of Andalusia ;`Pedro Romero, a pupil of the well known Corchado ; An tonio Calderon, who, in spite of his sleepy air, actually makes the spectator shudder at his auda cions bearing with the bull ; and Jose Trigo, who is esteemed by the good people of Madrid as the " classical" picador. Calderon and Munos fought the first bull. He was a finely formed animal, with small black herd, and short but formidable looking Erns, eyes that moved about incessantly, and most nimble legs. He bounded furiously out of his den the moment the door was opened, and after a few turns of the ring looked defyingly and fiercely at his attackers and at the spectators. When, how ever, he came to a "conference" with the pica do, es he became more calm, an l he seemed willing to accept a treaty of peace. The chubs would not consent to the terms whatever these were; they shook their gay cloaks in his face, and his fury again returned. He attacked Cilderon's horse in the rear and the picador was evidently unprepared for this mode of assault. He defended himself however with out losing his saddle, and the horse got rid of the bull without more serious damage than a slightly gored leg. Trigo, the second picador, apparently annoyed at his comrade's negligence, came up at full gallop, and rushed against the furious bull. In a second Trigo lay sprawling on the ground, with his horse killed beside him. Panadero and Aragon helped him to rise, and he went in anger in search of another quadruped. Usa planted, a teryo, a pair of banderillas or darts in the neck of the animal, dropping suddenly on him, and then gliding away by the left. He succeeded well in his feat, and was much applauded. Four pairs of dart, were struck in the bull's neck by Usa and Chacon, and after some further play the trumpet gave the signal of death. Desperdicio, whose duty it was, as first matador, to kill the bull, advanced, as is the etiquette, to the Emperor's box, and asked permission to do the deed. This, of course, was accorded, and he flung his montera cap in the air, which meant that he staked everything on one cast. He despatched the animal in two blows. The second bull, after a similar trial as the first, was killed by the panadero in one stroke, which Montes himself might have envied. The same operations were repeated throughout, and the re sult was that six bulls were killed and eight horses. By those who love and understand such displays the fight was pronounced very good. The animals were g enerally high-spirited, and the bull-fighters showed admirable dexterity and skill. They were repeatedly and enthusiastically applauded by the spectators. The performance ended at six o'clock, and the Emperor and Empress drove back to Biarritz. Crowds of persons failed in procuririg places in the ring, which held about 5,000 or 6,000. They were obliged to content themselves with such sports as mountebanks and jugglers, et hoc genus omne, provided for them outside. Military bands were in attendance, and a patrol of Chasseurs and a detachment of infantry kept the way clear BAYONNE, SeP'e. 21. The Emperor and Empress seem determined to make the most of their time during their sojourn in the Pyrenees. Excursions by laud and sea, pic nics, visits to remote nooks on the banks of the Adour and the Nive, quiet family parties, much more agreeable than the more crowded and more formal assemblies of the Tuileries and St. Cloud, moonlight rambles on the beach or over the rocks and headlands of the coast, vary the monotony of a rural life. If one may judge from appearances the Emperor was never more happy than he has been during his holiday at Biarritz. The complete bull-fight so anxiously expected by everyone, and which has attracted so many strangers to Bayonne, took place to-day. To-morrow, if the weather permit, a second representation of the same kind will be given and no doubt with the same success. This ordinarily quiet town has for the last few days completely changed its aspect. From six o'clock this morning until 2 in the afternoon the pleasure trains of Bordeaux and the diligences of Pau and Toulouse, with hardly any intermission, brought in strangers ; and vehicles of every description, from Dax, Mont St. Mars, and other adjacent towns and villages disgorged their occupants in the streets of St. Esprit and Bayonne. The Adour and Nive, smooth and unruffled as glass, and so limpid as to reflect with wonderful accuracy the beautiful slopes which rise on their banks, were covered with sail boats and chalands, bringing the population from " Midhurst, Sept. 17. the surrounding country.

It is stated that the provincial creditors of this wretched swindle are about to make a movement at the late head-quarters of the bank. A public meeting, under the auspices of the Rev. Dr. Haw ley, au influential parish priest, is to be held shortly in the town of Tipperary, with a view of taking steps to prevent the frightful litigation which threatens to swallow up any assets that may be hereafter forthcoming. The deposits iu that branch of the bank amounted to 70,0001., and the creditors—chiefly small industrious farmers—are more numerous than in any other locality. THE HIGHWAY TO AMERICA. The Limerick Observer of yesterday reproduces from a New York paper (Meagher's Irish News) the following piece of intelligence under the head of " Good News for Ireland :" "From our esteemed and excellent friend John B. Harvey, of Boston, we have received a very welcome letter, from which we think it due to our readers to give the folluwieg extia::t :• "' A project is now on foot to establish a line of packets between Fall 'river and one of tie western ports uf Ireland —Galway or Limerick. Mr. John Collins, of Fall River, is the erieinat , . r and p rim e mover in this affair, and has already received signatures among the American merchants and bankers of this city for $25,000 worth of stock. It is proposed to raise $lOO,OOO, in shares of $lOO each, a -id when the stock is all sub scribed for to hold a meeting of the shareholders and mature their organisation. It is intended to send one or more agents to Ireland to solicit the co-operation of the merchants, manufacturers, capitalists, and patriots of that country. lam satisfied the plan is feasible, and if carried out.to completion would be a great benefit to Ireland. It would bring the countries into direct inter course, and be of great advantage to Irish manufacturer% who are now obliged to send their wares through the English market, which are afterwards sold here as Eng lish goods. Besides, I think it would be a great advan tage to the poor emigrant, who in most instances is obliged to proceed to England on his way here. Mr. Collins was here within a day or two, and got a deal of stock taken up. He thinks he will be able to procure the necessary amount among New England Irishmen, and that in early spring two ships at least can be placed on the line." The Limerick Journal thus comments upon the renewed prospect of an Irish American packet station : " We shall eagerly watch and anxiously wait for fur ther information as to the progress of this new line of steamers, but we shall not indulge in any day dreams which might only serve to illustrate the old adage about counting unhatched chickens. We shall only repeat, what we have already said wore than once, that the establishment of a regular line of Irish American steam-packets is merely a question of time and the exi gencies of commerce, and that it must quickly follow, it it do not precede, the completion of the Magnetic Sub-Atlantic Telegraph." The name of Collins, how ever, is one of good omen. To that energetic proprietary belong the fleet of noble steamers, among which the Pa cific, the Baltic, and the ill-fated Arctic have won world wide reputation, and whose speed necessitated the putting forth of England's utmost powers to maintain, not su premacy, but mere equality upon the ocean. The name of Collins deserves the eternal gratitude of England for awakening her from a fatal trance of fancied security in her possession of the seas. We shall rejoice, if Ireland s h a ll incur a similar obligation to the name for awaken ing her from her lethargic state of inaction, and opening up resources which her sons have hitherto made few and feeble efforts to display."

After recent occurrences any great fluctuations in the prices of the shares of joint-stock banks ex cite anxious attention. During the fortnight pre ceding the stoppage of the Royal British Bank the shares of that concern declined day by day until from 501. they had descended to 201. Subsequently the London and Paris Bank, whose shares with 301. paid were at 81. discount, have found it expe dient to abandon their project, and to prevent by returning the subscriptions received a continuance of tLe apparent loss which their shareholders were thus far sustaining merely from the effects of pre judice. By this timely act of prudence each holder of a share, instead of having to reckon at market price a loss of 81., will almost immediately get back the whole he has paid, less a deduction, perhaps, of 1/. or 21. for expens e s. I n th e case all bank ing institutions the current prices of the shares form the most important point to which the public should be encouraged to direct their attention. It constitutes, in fact, the only general admoni tion that can be furnished, since such is the sen sitiveness of credit that no persons can venture to publish even a hint to induce caution without incurring the danger of ruining an establishment that may possibly have been perfectly sound, or of having precipitated a calamity that might otherwise, by private efforts, have been averted. Let the fluctuations in the daily list therefore be always a subject of open discussion. In every honest concern the directors and managers will recognise its value equally with the shareholders, since it will enable them to explain accidents or to correct misapprehensions. Assuming this prin ciple to be 'conceded, attention should be called to the position of two banks lately started under the most favourable auspices namely, the Ottoman Bank and the Bank of Egypt. They both possess charters of limited liability, their boards of direction aro unexceptionable, comprising persons of great wealth, reputation, and experience, and they have obtained not merely all the counte nance that could legitimately bo afforded them by their own Government, but also the requisite sanc tions from the authorities of the empire in which they are to be carried on. The capital of the Ottoman Bank is 500,0001., in 201. shares, on which 101. has been paid, and which at their first intro duction commanded a premium of between 21. and 31. The capital of the Bank of Egypt is 250,0001., in 251. shares, with 121. 10s. paid, which at one time attained a premium of about V. In the official list the former are now quoted as saleable only at 2i discount, and the latter at 3f discount. Neither of them have been in operation more than three or four months, but these prices show a depreciation as if in each case about one-fourth of the paid-up capital had been already lost, while, as compared with the quotations current shortly after the issue of the shares, the fall is equal to more than 40 per cent. The question under such circumstances is, should not some explanation be either sought or volunteered ? Supposing anything to be known by private individuals to warrant this distrust, the shareholders should devise means to extract the information for their common protection. If in four months losses or discouragements have been sustained to justify the existing quotations, the sooner each concern is wound up the better. At present nothing is publicly known to the disadvantage of either. Active intrigues and the circulation of false reports by the money dealers at Constantinople, and Alexandria, whose profits were likely to be checked by the intro duction of any regular system of public banking, w an e t r i e c , ipat of course, from the commencement, ourse,to beencountered,bu and tthese werecan scarcely, therefore, have exercised any influence. Neither can the fact that further calls of capital are being made suffice to throw light upon the matter, since there is nothing in the character of the proprietary, in the amount required, or in the state of the money-market, to create the idea that these could cause inconvenience ; while, at the same time, it is to be remembered that a bank in sound condition is not supposed to make calls for any other reason than an increasing ability to em ploy money with greater safety and profit than the shareholders could hope for in other ways. The secret of the decline, consequently, still remains to be revealed. If, instead of being called together only annually, the proprietors in such undertakings were to meet, as such should be the case, at least every quarter, there would be no necessity for sug gesting intermediate statements ; but, inasmuch as no prudent person would be content in any ordi nary business to part with his capital on condition that he should inquire about it only once a-year, there can be little question that in the present sure something of the kind is necessary. It is due, in deed, to the general public, no less than to the shareholders, since projects for the investment of capital in Turkey and Egypt are now numerous, and it is impossible to conceive that, if the expe rience of legitimate banking has been disastrous to the extent to be inferred from the present indica tions in the London share-market, there are not radical peculiarities both in the Government and people which should cause all financial enterprises in these countries to be regarded with the greatest hesitation.—Times City .Article. THE ALDERMANIO GOWN OP COLEMAN-STREET WARD. —Yesterday a meeting of the inhabitants of this ward was held at the ward-room, London-wall, for the purpose of agreeing to a requisition to Mr. Deputy Hale to ac cept the office of alderman of the ward, rendered vacant by the death of Alderman Hunter. Mr. J. B. Heath, a past director of the Bank of England, was unani mously called to the chair. Mr. J. H. Palmer moved the following resolution :—" That the distinguished position of alderman of the ward having become vacant by the decease of William Hunter, Esq., a requisition be addrassed by the inhabitants to Warren Storms Hale, Esq., the deputy of the ward, soliciting him to stand forward as the future alderman ; and that the same be presented to Mr. Deputy Hale, with the anxious hope of this meeting that he will allow himself to be put in nomination." The resolution was carried unani mously amid acclamations. It was also resolved that the•gentlemen present should constitute a committee to ' carry out the election of Mr. Deputy Hale. A unani mous vote of thanks was passed to Mr. Heath for his courtesy in taking the chair, and the meeting separated. THE NEW BISHOPS.—As we have had much pleasure in awarding praise to Lord Palmerston for the last 8 or 4 appointments made by him to high offices in the Church, it is with grief and disappointment that we look forward to the next announcement. We fear, from certain ru mours which have reached us, that a venerable noble man, the Nestor of the Cabinet, has latterly exerted his influence, and that the expected appointment to the see of Ripon will be that of a gentleman who, however re spectable in other capacities, cannot be described as pos sessing any of those qualifications which are naturally expected in one raised to such an o ffice. We will not indicate the individual, because, as ha the case of Mr. Trench, rumour may have gone beychad the fact. Should, however, the report which wo have beard prove correct. the disappointment of nearly all sect ions of the Church will be great ; and the nomination will deprive the Premier of much of the popularity which naturally ac crued from his selection of such men, as Dr. Baring and Dr. Tait.—.llfornino Houk& THE CUSTOMS CONGRESS. (From the Daily News.) BRUSSELS, SEPT. 23. The President of the Belgian Free Trade Asso ciation entertained the members of the Congress at a soiree at his residence, Rue de l'Ecuyer, last evening, when a numerous party attended. The affair was one of a purely complimentary nature. The members, who have free entrée to the Museum of Paintins, the Botanical Gtirdeas, the Armoury, and other public places, have eagerly availed them selves of their privilege, and tertaiely their heavy !abours in preparing papers to be read at the Con gress, or in puzzling over attpalling columns of figures stated in hectolitres; kilogrammes, and other strange measures of "Weight, length, capa city, or value," entitle them :to unbend a little in their rare moments of leisure, between the general seances, sectional meetings, and other committee work. Until to-day, however, the weather has been ' very unfavourable for out-door recreation ; and the earlier corners, who flattered themselves that they would have ample opportunity to inspect the " lions" of the place before settling themselves down to earnest business, had begun to ask rue , fully whether it rained always in Brussels. Little consolation is obtained from the native Job's com forters, who meet all querulous remarks with the matter-of-fact rejoinder of the citizen, " Oui, messieurs, la Belgique, c'est un pays ti es humide l" But an auspicious change has at length taken place, which is particularly fortunate, as this, was the opening day of the national fetes to celebrate the anniversary of the achievement of Belgian independence. The citizens re gard these ceremonies with great interest, andeven with enthusiasm ; yet their abandon in the midst of the general rejoicings doesnot much prejudice their devotion to the " main chance." The hotels and the shopkeepers are reaping a rich harvest from the great influx of strangers drawn from far and near to attend the various conferences and exhibitions of which Brussels has lately been the scene, as well as to witness the national festivities, which are, of course, conducted on thegrandest scale in the capi tal. One peculiar trait in the Bruxellian character strikes most of the visitors from other countries— namely, their sheer incapacity to comprehend the value of foreign money, which they are perversely prone to depreciate. The fetes begin to-day, and will extend to the 26th. The ceremonies for the first day comprised solemn funeral services iu the morning at the churches of St. Michael(the patron saint of Brussels) and St. Gudule, in honour of the citizens who fell in the cause of their country during the revolution ; a distribution of medals at the Temple des Augustins at noon, in reward for acts of courage and devotion ; and in the evening a grand military retraite round the park, in which the bands, trumpeters, and drummers of the army and the civic guard took very active, if not very prominent, parts. All the public buildings and many of the private houses wore gaily decoratel with flags and other symbols of rejoicing ; and throughout the day the places and streets were crowded with sight-seers in their best holiday attire. The tariff of the enter prising fraternity who hawk the official programme of the fates undergoes great fluctuations ; yester day the price was ten centimes per copy, to-day it has fallen to five centimes for a Belgian purchaser and ten centimes for an English one. The several sections met in the committee rooms adjoining the principal place of meeting this morn ing, when reports, statistical tables, and other docu ments poured in liken flood upon the vice-presidents. The committees were engaged in classifying and ex amining these papers until the hour arrived for the agizregate meeting. The Congress re assembled at 1 o'clock to day at the Hotel de Ville ; M. de Brouckere again pre siding. Among the new arrivals were Mr. Schole field, M.P., and delegate from the Birmingham. Chamber of Commerce, who presented to the Con gress a tabulated statement exhibiting the approxi mate tariffs of various European and American na tions. The minutes of the previous sitting having been read and confirmed, letters were read from absent adherents, and among others from M. Dela martine, members of the Chamber of Commerce of Lyons, Montpellier, Bordeaux, and Manchester (Mr. Boothman), M. Chevalier, Councillor of State (Herault), the Lord Mayor of London, and le Duo d'Harcourt. Groups of elegantly-dressed ladies occupied a series of small galleries ranged like opera boxes along one side of the hall, and ap peared to manifest considerable interest in the pro ceedings. The series of questions previously drawn up to guide the deliberations of the Congress has been subjected to revision, and the following order of the day has been formulated, the better to de fine the limits within which the speakers are to confine themselves : 1. Explanation of the reforms effected in different countries during the last 10 years ?progress of public opinion ; results attained. 2. Examination of the obstacles which obstruct the extension of international commercial relations in each country. Evils consequent upon those obstacles. 3. Examination of the means proposed, or to be pro. posed, for removing or mitigating the obstacles to Cus toms reform, and also of the best mode of achieving such reform. Resolutions submitted to the Congress. 4. Criticism of the objections (especially those that are new, if there be any such) offarad to Customs reform, and o , tensibly derived from the principles of justice and of political economy, or from a regard for the respective interests of nations, of the working classes, of the pro tected branches of industry, and of the public revenue. The first speaker called upon was M. SCIALOJ A., delegate from Sardinia, who was received with ap plause. He said that the people of Piedmont had been enabled to devote themselves to commercial pursuits with an energy which their free institu tions alone could impart. Describing the bene ficial results that had sprung from their commer cial treaties with Belgium and other countries, he quoted official figures to prove that the reduction of Customs' imposts and differential duties within the last few years had alike benefited native in dustry and increased the public revenue. The re missions extended to many articles of commerce amounted to from 70 to SO per cent. ; and, not withstanding the total abolition of the taxation on corn and cereals in 1847 and 1843, the public treasury fully retained its previous receipts. The withdrawal of artificial protection from the paper manufactures of Svrdinia had proved. most salutary. These tariff reforms had greatly ameliorated the condition of the working classes, as was evidenced by the increased consumption of articles of sub sistence and wearing apparel, their improved dwel lings, and their advanced education. Subsidiary reforms must, however. be combined with an irn. proved system of tariffs to give proper effect to commercial and industrial freedom. Other abuses required to be swept away ; the facilities offered to commerce at various seaports must be increased ; the diffusion of knowledge among the popuisstion demanded the earnest care of every Government • and he was glad to say the honest and enlightened Monarch who now reigned in Piedmont was de termined to persevere diligently in the promotion of these important objects. His people had al ready tasted the sweets of liberty, and in concert with their rulers they were bent on developing to the utmost the industrial, moral, intellectual, and political interests of the country. (Loud applause.) M. le Comte ABUIVABBNE (Tuscany) observed that his country was the first to proclaim the free presented on behalf of the dom of commerce, and Societe Geographile of Florence a paper detailing the history of commercial legislation in Tuscany, together with their views of the principles which ought to regulate the intercourse cf nations. M. CIARNIIR (Paris) remarked that free trade principles had scarcely begun to be understood in France 10 years ago, their progress being totally arrested by the revolution of 1845. The Provi sional Government, although professing Liberal doctrines, shrank from proposing the admission, free of duty, of the primary articles of subsistence. The Constituent Assembly effected nothing in the shape of Customs reform. When M. de Beusse moved a measure of radical reform in the French tariff the proposition was rejected, having been resisted by M. Thiers, in an oration which was one tissue of the grossest economical fallacies. The Ministry of 1852 brought forward several impor tant reforms, and cattle were admitted free from imposts. Many other articles were admitted at nominal rates, to the great advantage of the hum bler classes. A project had been submitted to the Corps Legislatif for the removal of all prohibitory duties ; and, without being too sanguine, it was hoped that the body would be induced by the ex ample, influence, and experience of England to make a move in the right direction. The advo cates of freo trade were steadily increasing in France. The entire press regarded it favourably, the manufacturing and commercial classes were awakening to its advantages, and even the agricul tural interest, ever slow to recognise what really ~ended to their benefit, were beginning to look upon it with diminished distrust. The practical adoption of such reforms were, however, obsti nately resisted by ss small, yet compact, fac tion, who clung wit invingible tenacity to ab , A NEW AND IMPORTANT DISCOVERY IN THE SCIENCE OF MEDICINE.
