T he following nom . . _ .. .. , - ._ , , • ,_ _ ____---1 -.• accounts :--- The case we allude to is certainly one in which regular law was suspended on both sides. Judge TERRY, of the Supreme Court of California, con ceived that he had a special calling to put down the Vigilance Committee, which, since the execu tion of the gambling murderers, CASEY and CORA, has kept order by Lynch Law in the city of San Francisco. The functions of Judge TERRY and all inferior judges and magistrates were cer tainly in a most provoking state of abeyance. Not, however, before it was needed. Never in modern history had such a gang of gamblers obtained possession of all magisterial and other appointments as in California. By a ballot-box, which M. BERKELEY'S oppo nents will not soon forget, they had ele vated a set of thorough vagabonds to the highest offices of the State. Mr. HERBERT, the acquitted murderer of the waiter, was their repre sentative; a really fair example of his constituency; —plain honest people suspected nothing, and took therefore no precautions, till one day fifteen hun dred votes were returned from a district contain ing about three hundred, and five hundred from another which did not muster more than thirty altogether. The mystery of rascal-rule was now solved, and the murder in open day of the editor who had the boldness to denounce the blacklegs brought on the crisis. The decent inhabitants knew that the murderers, according to all former precedents, would be let off by a bench of gamblers and their packed jury ; they formed themselves at once into aCommittee of Vigilance, took the pri soners by force from the gaol belonging to the gamblers into their own custody, tried them and hun them. And never did murderers more richly deserve their fate. But bow resume the usual course of things 7 - To part with the literal weapons of war would be to sur render the city again to desperadoes, most of them, apparently, the offscouring of Irish hulks. Till power could be placed in safer official hands, it seemed indispensable to preserve it in their own,. In n o other way could Judges and Governors, such as San Francisco bad, be kept to their duty. Accordingly, the Committee has warned a nest of some score of scamps, who demoralised the whole town, that they had better take ship and show their faces there no more ; a hint they appear to have deemed it most prudent to accept. Such was the state o f things whicharoused the ire of Judge DAVID S. TERRY, of the S u p reme Court of California. To see the regular governor, courts of law, and juries, which would not work except as protectors of gamblers and murderers, superseded by such an irregular extemporised governor, judge, and jury, under the barbarous name of a Committee, his teal for law could no longer endur e . He would be Judge in Anything short of this will provoke opposition, and will not answer the purpose. The metropolis must be rid of its excremental and other refuse, and justice as well as common-sense proclaims that other places ought not to have the public health injured by the process. The only difficulty that can arise with reasonable men is the expense, and however great that may be, is not the good that doing the thing properly will effect worth it I What is a million, or even more, of expenditure compared with the purification of the metropolis, and the rescue of the inhabitants on the banks of the Thames, below its site, from exposire to the pestilential effluvia of the sewage ? A hundred millions of hard-earned money—if of easy-got taxation—have been expended over a worse than fruitless war, and, strange to tell, the local repre sentatives of between two and three millions of the population of the empire, including perhaps amoiety •f its richest citizens to hesitate about expending a million or so over a merciful and necessary scheme like this. Away with such hesitation Enter tain it who may, they misrepresent the intelligence and the public spirit of the metropolitan popula tion who do so, and ought, if their scruples be insuperable, to resign at once, and let us have done with them. They belong to the past, with its petty arenas of partisanship and jobbing, and not to the present, when it behoves every good citizen to vindicate the great principle of self government before the admiring gaze of oppressed nationalities. Men are wanted at the Board equal to the responsibilities of their position ; and if a decided improvement does not take place, the entire Board, chairman and all, must be called on to resign. Let them "play the fool," if they please, "in their own houses "—the rate payers cannot afford them the use of the Board room. The sewage must, first or last, be carried out to sea, and to effect that it must be disem . bogued below Gravesend. I 1 122,20 G The following companies have no accounts : Accumulative. London Equitable. Achilles. London Mercantile. Amazon. London and Provincial. Ark. Marylebono. British Exchequer. Nelson. British Industry. New Protector. From the above tabular statement it appears that the total expenditure and claims have averaged on the net premium, receipts, &c., 84.92 per cent. ; including capital, 63.85 per cent. The claims alone on the net premium, &c., average 23.80 per cent. These percentages should probably be even greater, as in many instances annuity purchase•money is merged in the premium receipts. In some instances it was found impossible to give the available funds invested and in hand with any degree of accuracy, from the vague and unsatisfactory manner in which the accounts are stated. The companies carrying on life and fire business are not included in the above statement, as in many cases the transactions are so amalgamated as to preclude any investiga tion of the separate departments. Under such circumstances, it is unnecessary to say with what intense and concentrated hatred she detests Sardinia. The appearance of a really constitutional Government casts a tacit but powerful censure on the despotic system main tained by herself and her puny proteges. The re cognition of Vicron EMNIANUEL as the champion of Italian liberty is gall and wormwood to the jealous German, and willingly would she se i ze any pretext for invading and crushing one whom it is difficult to say whether she most hates or dreads. The attempt to involve Sardinia in a diploma tic dispute last year—by a most unwarrantable stretch of authority over the Tuscan Govern ment--cannot easily be forgotten. The snare Was only avoided by the extraordinary forbear ance of the Cabinet of Turin ; and the position in which Sardinia was then placed as the faithful, efficient, and honoured all; of France and Eng land, prevented Austria from pushing the dispute to extremities, which might have prevented her interference on behalf of Russia, and brought the united force of the Western Powers into the field against her. She therefore, for the time, gave tip her darling project, and refrai ne d f rom fur tiler aggression on Piedmont. But there is t o o much rewoa to fear that the project has been postponed, but not aba n . doned—that she still cherishes her malevolent schemes, and is seeking only a favourable oppor tunity to bring them into practical operation. For what other purpose would she display such Godly military operations inoreasiug the uurabers The accustomed salutes were fired, and every ship of war and merchant vessel in port were simultaneously decked with colours. At 5 o'clock this afternoon the Queen paid a visit to the Earl of Mount•Edgecumbe, and then proceeded to Mount Wise, where her Majesty was received by a guard of honour, who formed an escort to the residence of the Port Admiral, Sir W. Parker. About 3 e'clock his Royal Highness Prince Albert, accompanied by the Prince of Wales, and attended by Col. Phipps and Capt. Du Plat, landed at the Keyham steam yard, through the works of which they were escorted by Admiral Superintendent Plumridge and the principal officers, and attended by Admiral Parker, General Eden, and their stain. At 6 o'clock the Royal visitors embarked for Mount Wise, where they joined her Majesty. The Royal family returned to tlie yacht in the evening. It is stated that to•morrow (Wednesday) the Queen will go np the River Tamar, to visit Earl St. Germans. It is also stated that the Royal squadron will leave early in the morning for Jersey and Guernsey.

FRANCE. PARIS, TUESDAY EVENING. The Emperor yesterday gave a private audience to Prince Adalbert of Bavaria at the Palace of St. Cloud. The Prince had had the honour of being received by the Empress previously to the return of his Majesty. A Council of Ministers, at which the Emperor presided, was held yesterday morning at St. Cloud. Marshal Vaillant, as toe um, tenens for the Minis ter of Public Worship, has addressed a circular to the different archbishops and bishops, calling their attention to the fact that the present year has been memorable for the birth of a Prince Imperial at the moment of the signature of a glorious peace, and requesting them to order that a Te Deum shall be sung in all the churches of their respective dioceses on the 15th inst., the fete day of the Emperor, as a mark of gratitude to Providence for those bless ings. The Moniteur contains a decree nominating the Presidents, Vice-Presidenta, and Secretaries of the Councils-General of the departments for the session of 1856. "It appears certain," says a Paris letter in the Emancipation, of Brussels, " that it is Count Wa lewski and Marshal Duke Pelissier who are charged with the task of coming to a definite arrangement on the subject of the medals which Turkey is de sirous of conferring on the French troops. It was at first in contemplation to decorate all the soldiers who have taken part in the Crimean campaign. The Emperor did not give his sanction to this idea, and from modification to modification it has at length been decided that the only soldiers who are to receive the Turkish medal are the wounded and the invalided."

A letter from Constantinople in the Assembles Nationale says :—" The arrival of a French mer chant steamer, the Lyonnais, at Orsova, on the Danube, is announced. A correspondent from that town says that the owner, M. Parrot, having in vain attempted to dispose of the steamer to the Danube Navigation Company, has now the inten tion of offering it for sale to the Servian Govern ment. In the event of his not succeeding, he has the intention, after fulfilling all the sanitary and customs formalities, of ascending the Danube up to Pesth and Vienna, with the view of studying the course and currents of that river in anticipation of next spring, when, in his opinion, the Danube will be navigated in all its length by French steamers. If it is really the intention of the Lyonnais to proceed up the Danube beyond Sem lid, she will perhaps receive the same reply as that given to the Bavarian steamers, namely, that the time has not yet come for claiming the application of the stipulations of the Treaty of Paris." SPAIN. The Madrid journals of the Bth contain nothing of much interest, in addition to the telegraphic despatches of that date which have been published. The resignation by General San Miguel of the post of commander of the Halberdiers of the court had at last been definitively accepted, and the Marquis del Duero, or the Duke de Bailen, was spoken of as his successor. M. Espana, secretary of the Embassy at Paris, had resigned and has been replaced by M. Musro. In consequence of the re establishment of tranquillity, recruiting for the free corps had been suspended. It was not true, as had been reported, that two deputies of the Cores, named Pons and Borao, had been arrested at Saragossa, but M. Abascal, a deputy of democratic opinions, is in custody in that city. It was said that the 50(1 insur gents who had assembled at Mequinenza dispersed, and that 400 of them had made their submission. At Graeia ' in Catalonia, a young man named Puig had been condemned to death for having been concerned in the murder of the Queen's officers in that place. A letter, emanating from a semi-official source, says :—The policy of the Government will cer tainly be faithful to the spirit which predominates in the preamble of the decree proclaiming Spain in a state of siege, published in the Gazette on the 14th July last. Such is the veritable programme of the Government. The Cabinet is determined to speak by its acts, but will not make a profession of faith. All the Ministers are animated with the best intentions, and all are honourable men and good patriots. The state of siege of Madrid will soon be raised. According to all probabilities M. Pacheco will go to London as Minister, M. Mar tinez de la Rosa is spoken of for Rome. Two fine screw steamers, built in England for the Government, the Duero and the Tajo, have this day arrived at Vigo. PROSPECTS OF THE VINTAGE IN SPAIN.—E/ COntri buyente of the 30th of July (published at Cadiz) says : " The vine disease progresses, unfortunately, beyond all measure, for in the district of the neighbouring cities of Jerez and Port St. Mary, there is scarcely a ♦ineyard freo from the devastator " Oidiurn Tukerii.” In Valen cia, although it has shown itself in some of the vines, at present it does not appear so great as in previous years."
