AO' 'l ‘ll U Vl' . . t tr, Obetnina Wuus LONDON, WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 17, 185 The intelligence which arrived this morning from Paris, of the intention of France and England to prevent a rupture between Spain and the United States, and to secure to the former the possession of Cuba, at the same time requiring her to introduce such reforms in the internal administration of the island as shall leave the Cubans no just ground of complaint, cannot but be received with great satisfaction by the friends of peace and of progress throughout the world. When the affairs of Cuba first assumed a serious aspect, when the organization of the Lopez expedition was first announced, we expressed our hope and belief that Lord PALMERSTON would concert measures with France and with Spain to secure to the latter her most valuable colonial possession, and at the same time to remove any just cause of complaint on the part of the Cubans. The fact that M. BAROCLIB, the French Mi nister for Foreign Affairs, was at the time in Eng land, ostensibly on a visit to the Exhibition, and that he was in constant communication with Senor ISTURITZ, the Spanish Minister, and with Lord PALMERSTON, afforded us, as we thought, just ground for the conclusion at which we had arrived. The trust which we reposed in the tact and the patriotism of Lord PALMERSTON has not been disappointed. On this, as on every other occasion, he has proved himself a thoroughly English Minister, and the most accomplished states man of the day. The Paris Messager of Monday evening contains the following announcement : " Dispatches of itnportance were received yesterday evening from Madrid at the Ministry for Foreign Affairs, and immediately afterwards M. Baroche went to the E1y.43, and was soon joined by the Spanish Ambas sador and Lord Normanby. France and England are decided on preventing a rupture between Spain and the United States, and in preserving for the former her va luable colony, but with the introduction of some indis pen3able reforms in the internal government of Cuba. A French steamer leaves Havre this day for Washing ton, with dispatches from the French Government and the American Minister." Of the success of this mission —which, without wounding the susceptibilities of our somewhat over sensitive Transatlantic:brethren, inasmuch as it will secure to the Cubans all which they profess to desire to obtain for them, viz., good government, will at the same time preserve to Spain her most valuable colonial possessions—there cannot be a doubt, and we rejoice, therefore, that at this crisis the seals of the Foreign-office are held by Lord PALMERSTON, the statesman, instead of by Lord ABERDEEN, the capi tulator. According to a custom which we are rejoiced to observe becoming every session more prevalent, the Hon. Gentleman the Member for Montrose availed himself recently of the Parliamentary vacation for the purpose of having a public interview with his constituents. It may be remembered by those who have watched the public career of the Chief Com missioner of the lonian Islands, that it was annually , his wont to seek this opportunity of personal inter course with the electors of Sheffield throughout the entire period during which he enjoyed the privilege of being their representative. Since his removal from the House of Commons to that remote portion of the Colonial Administration, the system which he had gradually rendered habitual among his political sup porters, has been partially adopted by his successor; and we are elated to perceive a disposition to follow in the like direction on the part of several other Mem bers of the Imperial Legislature. Our satisfaction upon this subject is the more earnest because we re gard the custom referred to as eminently calculated to forward the cause of popular enlightenment, while it conduces at the same moment very materially to further the interests of reform in the Constitution. Debarred from the advantages of a gigantic scheme of national education, the masses absolutely require some such indirect means of improvement as those which are here held out for their advancement. By the discussion amongst themselves of the more im portant measures which from session to session are brought under the consideration of the House of Com mons, they are familiarised with themes, the just ap prehension of which as necessarily conduces to their own mental invigoration as it does to the stabilitation of the whole scheme of government. Besides this, it should be observed that the agitation of inquiry into the proceedings of the Legislature is of all things perhaps, the most beneficial as a preliminary to the more general extension of the rights of citizenship. In a country like England this is a matter of no subordinate consideration. Among ourselves the principal solicitude of a public character is to partici pate individually in the conduct of the machine of the State—whether it be by raising a hand before the hustings or by delivering an oration in the pre sence of Mr. SPEAKER, by inscribing one's name at a polling booth or by being counted out into one of the lobbies at 'Westminster. Hitherto the enjoyment of privileges of this description has been restricted to a very small proportion of the community in the United Kingdom, insomuch so that during the las half century the most energetic endeavours have been made for the extension of the electoral prerogative on the part of the more practical well-wishera of the population. Hence that glorious and comprehensive movement in behalf of rel)rm to which so much good i already attributable, the mo►ement that atone period emancipated us from the thraldom of religious intolerance, that at another time partially destroyed the evil system of class legislation, and that ultimately succeeded in ridding the country of that most de testable incubus of monopoly which, by grinding down the industry of E ng l an d, and by multiplying the horrors of starvation in Ireland and in Scotland, had at last driven the inhabitants of these islands to the very verge of revolution. Desirable, however, as the extension of the elective franchise among the multitude is most indubitably, it will be admitted, nevertheless, by its most enthu- siastic advocates, that it must by necessity be preceded by the spread of a certain amount Of knowledge among its recipients. Otherwise the boon so long aspired to by the majority would prove a curse instead of a blessing, a weapon capable of proving, when misapplied, very terrible in its opera- tion, being intrusted to hands incapable of using it either to their own benefit or to the aggregate advan- :age of the commonweal. To the end that the know- ledge here indicated might the most effectually be im parted to the masses, or at the very least to those members of the community who are desirous of rising to the diguithand of becoming invefited with the rights o+ - _, z of citizenship, it is absolutely essential that the country should secure to itself beforehand the long hoped for and long delayed boon of national education. It is from a conviction as to the peril of precipitation in regard to a comprehensive extension of the franchise that we have insisted so repeatedly upon the necessity of obtaining, first of all, a comprehensive system of national education. The priority of the last men tioned reform is requisite, we feel assured, if we would guard against a countless multitude of difficulties. For the proper exercise of the privileges accruing to an elector cannot possibly be secured without imparting to him first of all some reasonable estimate of his position and its responsibi lities. Denied up to the present moment the advan tages of a national system of education, the people have only one resource left, namely, that of interest ing themselves upon all matters essential for their initiation into the mysteries of popular government. Towards the acquisition of this species of know ledge, the knowledge of the duties of an elector, together with that of most of the great questions upon which he finds hi mse lf ca ll e d upon to dec i de, eachindividual member of the community in the United Kingdom struggles on instinctively until such time as he can actually exult in the realisation of his patriotic dreams of ambition. Among the opportu nities afforded him to this end possibly the most ser viceable are those presented by the local discussion during the recess of topics debated throughout the session within the walls of the Imperial Parliament, such opportunities, in short, as those yielded by periodical interviews between the constituencies and their respective representatives. Sir HENRY WARD, previously to his removal to the lonian Islands, was accustomed to stimulate in this manner the political self-education of Sheffield by bringing home imme diately to the comprehension of its inhabitants the difficult problems submitted for elucidation to the Commons House of Parliament. Mr. HUME in like manner is celebrating his restoration to health—a cir cumstance to us, and we doubt not also to every Re former in the country, fraught with considerations of the sincerest pleasure—by aiding in a similar way in the political self. education of Montrose. Apart from the benefits of a general character resulting from such interviews, it might be argued, with no incon siderable show of reason, that they are somewhat calculated to act as a stimulus to the exertions of the popular representatives, inciting them to the more efficient discharge of their duties as Members of the Legislature, and acting upon them by anticipation as warnings against any very serious dereliction. It were superfluous, however, to expatiate upon a truth 60 glaringly obvious as this, not less superfluous indeed, than to enlarge upon the more immediate benefit of this annual shriving of the legislators to their respective constituents, the benefit of maintain ing a good understanding between themselves and their political supporters upon all the principal themes connected with the cause of the general advancement. What we have been desirous to re mark upon the subject, nevertheless, has been already expressed in the course of our preceding observations: the moral we have wished to draw from the public meeting held the other day at Montrose being one of a nature, we conceive, welcome to the sympathies of Mr. HUME, namely, that interviews of the like kind are useful to the community in the absence of a national system of education, and that by influencing the public mind thus beneficially, they are preparing the way in the most effectual manner for a safe and comprehensive extension of the Elective Franchise. Our anticipations respecting the new Austrian loan have, up to this period, been completely verified Not a single transaction has taken place on the Stock-Exchange. There is no quotation whatsoever. The heaviest discount cannot tempt our dealers to speculate in the new stock. Notwithstanding the reputation for gullibility so generally affixed to the English character on the continent, John Bull has, on the present occasion, kept steadily aloof from temptation, and rejected the glittering bait held out for his capture. It now appears that it has not been much more successful in the favoured cities where subscriptions might be re ceived and the dividends are promised to be paid. In every place exempt from Austrian control the opinions are stated to be " very unfavourable" as to the pro spects of the loan, and there was by no means that anxiety to participate in the advantages tendered for general acceptance that bad been confidently antici pated by the financial department of the Aus trian Government. Even the bonus of two per cent. offered to all who came forward on or before the 16th instant was a total failure. Prudent capitalists abstained from the trap, and waited for further demonstrations on the various " bourses" of Europe before they com mitted themselves irretrievably. The limited period has now expired, and as yet nothing very striking has been accomplished. The promise that all the stock written for will be given to every applicant may easily be redeemed ; and the fortunate speculators do not appear to excite any jealousy on the part of those who let slip the lucky moment and bided their time before they resolved upon joining the movement. One per cent. only will now be given, and the time within which that can be obtained is limited to a single week, as it will expire on the 23rd instant. We cannot, however, suppose that parties who refused to accept two per cent. will now endeavour to obtain one per cent. under far more unfavourable circumstances, when the matter has palpably and notoriously become an unmitigated failure. There have been some subscriptions unquestionably, but they have been at Vienna—by parties living under an absolute Government, where there is not even the shadow of a constitution. We can easily conceive how wealthy parties may, under such circumstances, be desirous of conciliating the " powers that be," even at a certain pecuniary loss to themselves. We know tolerably well how the aids and benevolences used to be got up even in this country in the olden time. We have also heard of " forced loans," that were frequently resorted to during com paratively modern periods ; but the screw has seldom been more stringently applied than at the present moment in Vienna. The unluckly capitalists who are " expected" to come forward know that they may as well do so with a good grace, whereby they may have a chance of getting something back, as wait until the moment when a much larger sum is forci bly wrested from them. ISAAC of York, when called upon to lend a handful of besants to JOHN, endea voured to ascertain the smallest quantity he could pass off as satisfying the conditions of the demand, viz., as amounting to a handful. He well knew that he could not resist the application ; there was ample power to enforce obedience. Like a prudent man, therefore, be tried to get off as cheaply as possible. So it is with those now living under despotic autho rity; they try to evade the confiscation of their all by the voluntary sacrifice of a portion, and by keeping a good countenance, they hope to get even that off at the best possible price. But there are others who are also disposed to render ; assistance, although outside the lion's den, and safe from the influences that prove so potential to wealthy Austrians. The Jesuits are "delighted" with the proceedings of the Austrian Cabinet. The return to Absolutism has been hailed with the utmost enthusiasm, and every exertion is to be made to in duce them to persevere in their "virtuous courses,' and to strike some deadly blows at the freedom of thought and liberalism of opinion so deeply to be deprecated. It is said, therefore, that they have determined to persuade the parties having power to do so to subscribe the available funds of the various convents under their jurisdiction or influence. Something may be obtained from these quarters, although we believe that it will not be quite so large as has been anticipated. It is said that wealthy Jews have also been appealed to, and persuaded to come forward for the sake of their co-religionists who were living: under the Austrian yoke. Despite all those convulsive efforts, however, the loan still hangs fire, and from what we have heard from well- informed quarters, we believe that not one-fifth, perhaps scarcely one-tenth of the amount will be taken up by parties desirous of obtaining permanent investments. We congratulate our countrymen once more at the indignation manifested towards their audacious liberalism by the Ministers of the boy AUTOCRAT, which led to the exclusion of England from the advantages of the transaction, no place beiDg appointed in this country for the receipt ofl ~~_ _ WEDNESDAY EVENING, SEPTEMBER 17, 1851. subscriptions or the payment of dividends on the new lean. THE FRENCH REPUBLIC. We have received the Paris journals of yesterday. M. FRANCOIS HuGo, the author of an article in he Evinement, and M. PAUL MEURICE, the respon sible manager of that journal, were tried yesterday by the Court of Assizes on a charge of attempting to excite, by the article in question, hatred and con tempt of the Government. A verdict of guilty with out extenuating circumstances was returned by the jury. M. F. HuGo was sentenced to nine months' imprisonment and 2,000 f. fine, and M. PAUL MEURICE Ito nine months' imprisonment and 3,0001. fine. The Court also ordered the suspension of the journal for one month. The following is the article the publica tion of which has brought on the son of the greatest literary genius of France this sentence of unheard-of severity, which involves in it the ruin of a valuable property : " AN AVOWAL. "itis at length avowed. The actual Ministers of the Republic look upon themselves as identified with all the Monarchical Governments of Europe—with the Em peror of Russia, the Emperor of Austria, the King of Prussia, and the King of Naples—the Ministry of the French Republic, charged with the care of our demo cratic constitution, is the ally of Nesselrode, who has violated the Polish constitution; of Schwarzenberg, who has violated the Austrian constitution; of Manteuffel, who has violated the Prussian constitution! M. Louis Bonaparte, who has sworn fidelity to the Republic, is the auxiliary of the Holy Alliance. It is the Constitu tionnel which says that. That which the oppo sition journals dare not say is avowed and boasted of by the journal of the Elysee! It claims praise for acts of power which we would not suspect Government to be capable of doing with out offering it an insult. Yes, it is the Government journal which declares that, in causing to be arrested German refugees, guilty of desiring some other than a Cossack regime for their country. The Ministry of the Republic has done an act of international loyalty, and that in violating the sa cre d l aw o f h osp i ta li ty towards unfortunate provcripts it h as on l y f u lfill e d d ut i es im posed by the law of nati o n s . A n d at th e same time the same journal suggests to th e execut i ve t h e propr i ety of addressing remonstrances to the English Cabinet against the protection afforded to the refugees in London. And we are cone to this! The right of asylum, which even barbarians afford to vanquished enemies—a right for which even Turkey has just run the risk of war with Russia and Austria—a rig ht for which even • Switzerland risked war with the monar chies of Europe is violated with boasting by the Go vernment of the proscribed of Thurgovia, the Govern ment of the French Republic. That which the restora tion dare not do openly is done with boasting by the Ministry of M. Bonaparte. It puts its polies and its prisons at the service of those who have partitioned Po land, devastated Hungary, enslaved Germany, ruined Italy, and all that in the name of duty. In the eyes of M. Bonaparte's Ministers it is a crime against the State to desire any other balance of power than the impious and unnatural balance imposed by the conquerors of Waterloo. In the eyes of his Ministers it is a crime for a Pole to wish to see his country freed from Cossacks— or for a Hungarian to desire the fall of Austria, that he might see avenged his brethren hung treacherously, and his mother flogged—a crime against, the State to admire Kossuth and curse Haynau—a crime for a German to desire unity, and to wish to see arbitrary violence give place to law, by the establishment of principles which have made the English a free and the French a sovereign people —a crime against the French state for an Italian to desire some other rule than that of Radetzky, Cardinal Antonelli, and the King of Naples, and to wish to see Austrians and Jesuits ex pelled together—a crime against the French State to hate the bombarders of Milan, of Rome, and of Messina —an act of felony to say, in the language of the Emperor Napoleon, Honneur aua Vaincus l' It is, indeed, well that France should hew the sentiments of those who govern her. When the Restoration invaded Spain it did so under pretence of supporting constitutional liberty. While the dynasty of July showed a disposi tion to invade the Sonderbund it yet affected to protest to the last against the partition of Poland. Those Go vernments, too, belonged to the Holy Alliance, but they were ashamed to say so, You have no such false shame, Ministers of the Republic. You avow that you are the allies of the % Cossack. You, Ministers chosen by the nephew of him who was conquered at Waterloo— you make compacts with the conquerors, and boast o. what you do. Thanks! " P. V. HuGo." M. LEON FexcEut, who ordered this prosecution, was himself, when editor of the Courier Francais, in the daily habit of publishing articles infinitely more calculated to bring government into hatred and contempt than is the article of the .Evenement. What gives: the affair an appearance of mean ness, if not of something worse, is the fact that the Constitutionnel has, since it turned Bona partist, been constantly calling on the Government to prosecute, suppress, and ruin all other journals, so as to give to the conscientious proprietor of that veracious print a monopoly of the market, and we here find the call obeyed. The other journals all consider it as the commence ment of a crusade against the press. The National says, and says truly— " We are sure of not being met with disavowals from any quarter when we affirm that the condemnation of the Evinement will be received by the journals of all opi nions having faith in the liberty of the press with the same sentiment of sorrow, the same regrets, and the same disquietude' which we feel ourselves. Yet there are persons who, notwithstanding the harsh and severe blows which have for so long a time been inflicted on the press, think the law is not even severe enough." The Siecle pithily asks, " What will be the effect of so much severity ?Will it prove M..,LEON FAUCHER to be a great Minister, and M. B AROCHE a diploma tist capable of comprehending the antique honour of his country ?" whilst even the reactionary journals themselves express a fear that this condemnation will seem most severe. To us it appears an exhibition of petty personal pique in high places. The magnificent and unanswerable speech of M. VICTOR HUGO on the revision question will never be forgiven. AUGUSTU. Lus, unable to reach the father, revenges himself on the sons. The Dowager Duchess DE MAILLE has just been burnt to death at the chateau of La Rocheguyon, when on a visit with her friend, the Duchess DE LAROCHEFOUCAULT. She was standing in her room, near a waxlight, when a current of air sent the flame in the direction of her dress, which caught fire, and in a moment she was enveloped in flames. She was so dreadfully burnt that all the aid of medical art could not succeed in saving her life. The revictualling of the French Mediterranean squadron is being carried on with the greatest acti vity at Toulon, and it is expected that it will be again ready for sea by the 18th. It is, it is said, to be reinforced by the Henri IV., now at Lisbon, and by the Ville de Paris. The Echo d'Oraee of the 10th says—" Our last letters from Paris, in which we are in the habit of placing full reliance, give us a piece of news, which, at first sight, will appear incredible', but which un fortunately appears to us but too certain. According to these accounts General D'HAUTPOUL will return to Algeria, to resume his functions of Governor-Genera The Ist of October is fixed on as the date of his rein• stallation." The PRESIDENT of the Republic entertained at breakfast, at the Elysee, yesterday, the Dames d e la Halle, the fishwives of Paris, and ceremoniously saluted one of them as the representative of the others. They presented him with bouquets of violets. The Permanent Committee of the National As sembly met yesterday to receive a communication from the Minister of the Interior, respecting the de claration of the state of siege in the Ardeche. M. BENOIST D'Azr, one of the Vice• Presidents of the National Assembly, presided. Most of the members of the Committee attended. The explanations of the Minister were considered satisfactory, and it was agreed that nothing had occurred to render it neces sary to convoke the Assembly before the time fixed at the prorogation.

Contradictory statements have from time to time been made respecting the German fleet. The Ger man journals now state that the Committee nomi nated by the Germanic Diet, on the subject, has de manded to be allowed to nominate three practical men to decide what ought to be the number of ves sels composin g th e fl ee t, h ow i t ought to be organ ised, the probable expense, &c. The Committee observes that the fleet is only to serve in protecting commerce and the coasts. The King of Paussre, on arriving at Potsdam from his recent journey, was complimented by a de putation of the Association of Fidelity. In reply, his MAJESTY complained that the observations he had made on his visit to Hohenzollern had been misrepresented in the newspapers, and that his inten tion was to fortify the castle of Hohenzollern, a n d protect the people. The KING then complained that both he and the Quiet( Were oilumaiated: it hid, INDIA AND CHINA. (BY ELECTRIC TELEGRAPH.) (FRO➢[ OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.) A telegraphic dispatch from Trieste of the 15th instant informs us of the arrival at Suez of the Penin sular and Oriental Company's steam-packet Hindos tan, with 51 passengers. Her dates from Calcutta are to the 7th of August. The Nizam would first of all pay to the Govern ment 40 Lacs, the remainder in one year, and give security for the regular payment of his contingent. None of his provinces have been occupied. A conspiracy to effect the escape of Moolraj had been discovered in Calcutta. It was reported that the arsenal had been set on fire, and the prisoners liberated in the confusion. Twenty villages round about Goolburgah had been plundered and burned by the Rohillas. It was mentioned in the way of a report that the troops of Gholab Singh had been beaten in a con flict with the people some four days' journey from Cashmere. A great many men and a quantity of baggage were said to have been lost. Commerce at Calcutta was dull. The rebellion in China was spreading. The Im perial troops could make no impression upon the rebels. The stock of silk on hand was small. Exchange on London, 4s. 10d.—Chronicle. LLOYD'S SHIPPIN G.—( THIS DAY.)

In all these statements there was not a word of truth ; "but," said the KING, "though I contradict them, others, equally false, will soon be made." The National Gazette of Berlin states that in addi tion to the reform in the laws relative to patents for inventions, the Prussian Minister of Commerce is preparing treaties with different states for the mutual protectio❑ of inventors, and that France and Belgium have already declared themselves ready to negotiate. The Germanic Diet has indefinitely prolonged the powers of the Federal Commissioners in Electoral Hesse, and has directed them to present a report on the affairs confided to them. Grand manceuvres of about 40,000 troops took place a few days ago near Vienna. The EMPEROR attended them, and bivouacked one night with the soldiers. ITALY. The Risorgimento of Turin of the lath inst. pub lishes the following, dated Bologna, the 9th:— Cardinal Altieri arrived here on Saturday. This fact is of little importance, but political amateurs have made it the theme of numerous conjectures. It appears certain that the Cardinal is repairing to Verona to meet the Emperor. In the meantime, he stops on different points of the Pontifical dominions, and inquires into the expenditures attending the Austrian occupation, which have hitherto been borne by the provinces and districts occupied by the Imperial troops. The Cardinal has been also instructed by the Pope to invite the clergy to pay the taxes required of them." OVERLAND MAIL (BY EXTRAORDINARY EXPRESS MARKET NEWS.-(THIS DAY CORN EXCHANGE—WEDNESDAY. To-day's market was well supplied with Wheat from Essex, Kent, and Suffolk, the total arrivals this week having amounted to 2,680 quarters. Notwithstanding the unfavourable accounts respecting the Potato crop, the demand for all kinds of English Wheat was heavy, at Monday's decline in the quotations. From abroad, 2,770 quarters of Foreign Wheat have reached us. Really fine qualities moved off slowly, at unaltered cur rencies ; but low and middli ng ki n d s were a l most neglecte. In floating cargoes no transactions took place. We had a steady demand for both English and Foreign Barley, at full currencies ; whilst Malt was held at previous rates. Oats, the supply of which was very moderate, moved off reely at very full prices. Beans and Peas were very dull; but there was moro in quiry for Indian Corn and Flour. ARRIVALS THIS WEEK. Wheat.
