Oblenina gint, LONDON, MONDAY, JULY 1, 1850. By a most extriordinary coincidence the present Ministries of France and of England have secured themselves in office by a similar majority. It has already been observed by ourselves as somewhat re markable that the debates, upon the result of which their very existence was dependent, commenced upon the same day in the House of Commons and in the National Assembly. The consequence of the two discussions has been still more remarkable—forty six being the majority by which the popular re presentatives of France indicated their acceptance of the Dotation Bill, and forty-six being also the majority by which the popular representatives of England proclaimed their approval of the foreign policy of Viscount PALMERSTON. Of course, this circumstance is simply entitled to allusion as a coincidence, and it is simply as a coincidence that we refer to it ; yet the accidental similarity of the Mi nisterial majority gained by the Cabinet, of St. James's and by the Cabinet of the Elyse* is not without meaning, if it only serve as an attraction of the public scrutiny to the position in which the rulers of these two great countries find themselves. Contrary to the feelings which actuated them at the commencement of the present century, the Legislatures of the French Republic and of the Eng lish Monarchy have evinced—the former an inimical, and the latter a conciliatory disposition. Whereas in Paris the predilections of the mass of politicians were formerly in favour of an alliance with England and her constitutional government, now-a-days the elected legislators of the French multitude have betrayed a hostile sentiment towards ourselvei and our adminis trators. The fierce acclamations with which the droite received the petulant announcement of M. LAHITTE, to the effect that a rupture between the two nations was becoming imminent, in consequence of the with drawal from London of the French Ambassador, cannot very soon, and should not very soon be fur gotten. The sound of those ferocious cheers was of itself peculiarly significant. It was the yell of hatred raised against the liberal Cabinet of England by the conspirators of the counter-revolution. It was the articulation, of the long - suppressed animo sity cherished by the " Legitimatists " for the Government which sympathised with the Republican movement, and acknowledged, in February, 1848, the majestic and humanizing princi ples of Democracy. Not all the duties of ordinary gratitude —devolving upon them from the lavish ex penditure of blood and money by this country during the infamous wars waged against NAPOLEON—couId assuage those pangs of wrath which have been in spired by that nation whence came the tacit approval of the deserters from CHARLES X., the Dethroned, and of the contemners of Hem sr V. the Pretender. Nothing can obliterate from the minds of the monarchical intriguers in France the sense of the enormous force imparted to their Republican antagonists by the virtual complicity of England—not even the remem brance of two Restorations —not even the remem brance of the hospitality shown to one royal exile at Hartwell, and to another at Holyrood. While gratitude weighs heavily upon the consciences of the Legitimatists, antipathies of all kinds rise up, in like manner, against the people, and the Constitution, and the Government of Great Britain, in consequence of the analogy existing be tween those and their own . Republican people, Re publican Constitution, and Republican Government. Hence the fury of their acclamations when surprised into a disclosure of their real sentiments the other day by General LAHITTE. Meanwhile a strange contrast to this antipathy to England, on the put of the majority of the National Assembly, has been afforded by the generous eulogiums upon, and magnanimous predilections in favour of, the French nation and the French Government, ob servable in the masterly oration of Lord PALMERS TON. The panegyrics there passed upon the neigh bouring democracy, the sympathies there bstrayed for their institutions, had a more than usual significance, coming as they did so immediately after the cries of execration raised against the Noble Lord in the French Assembly by the great body of the Legitimatist conspirators. The cordial goodwill for France and her enlightened population expressed by the illustrious statesman, her MAJESTY'S principal Foreign Secretary was an emphatic and withering response to the yells of hatred so very re cently raised from the benches of the droite. Lord PALMERSTON could not more decisively have thrown contempt upon his• assailants in the aggregate, whether here or on the European continent. He thereby in timated his defiance of their machinations, and his con viction that they failed to express the real sentiments of their constituencies. From what we have already observed it will be directly tipparent that we regard the accla mations raised in the Legislative Assembly as merely the voice of a conspiracy, and not as the voice of the multitude. We are as fully satisfied that Lord PAL MERSTON was only giving utterance to the feelings of the English population in his earnest encomiums on the French population, as we are satisfied that the amicable sentiments between the two countries are thoroughly and entirely reciprocal. Of this the visits of the National Guards to London, and the visits of our own countrymen to Paris, were ample testimony. Not all the cheering in the world, either from gauche or droite, can convince us to the con trary. The absurd rivalry once nurtured between na tions, only divided from each other by a narrow channel, has gradually abandoned its warlike character, and has given place to a peaceful and industrial competi tion. The ensuing year will yield noble proof of this in the form of the approaching Exposition. As a fitting preliminary to this great assemblage of the' industrial representatives of the various countries of the earth, we look upon the speech of Viscount PAL MERSTON, in its reference to the champions of Euro pean liberty, with unalloyed satisfaction ; and that satisfaction is only increased and completed by the f N av o o b u le rab L le ord de a c n is d ion his s, li se in q i u s ently ac corded to the popular representatives in ttheerialEcooglllLahguHesoubsye the Parliament. Ou Thursday the Marquis of LoNnoNDßitaT brought forward in the House of Lords the resolu tions, of which he had some time previously given notice, with respect to the intended abolition of the Lord-Lieutenancy of Ireland. As we had already alluded to the propositions of the Noble Marquis at considerable length when first placed on the notice book—as those proposal ,ns were ultimately with drawn without a division—but more espe cially as the public interest was concen trated on the all-important subject under simultaneous discussi ,, n in the popular branch of the Legislature, and on the brutal and atrocious outrage perpetrated on her Most Gracious MAJESTY—We deferred the further consideration of the matter until the public mind had in some degree resumed its wonted tranquillity, and could weigh the conflicting arguments fur and against the questi9n. The Noble Marquis candidly acknowledged that he himself was influenced by personal motives in bringing forward the resolutions. lie believed that the memory of his brother, through whose in trumentality the Union was chiefly carried, was in volved in the issue. The first Lord CASTLEREAGH had stated, during the anti-Union debates, half a century since, that " though the Parliament of Ire land was to be destroyed, the Court hold at the Castle of Dublin would remain uninjured." Al though we do not participate in the profound admira tion with which the Noble Marquis reg ards the political conduct and public character of his deceased . :tt .;' :•"4" - ,i , A;:;.../ . .. \ , % 11 . .' °E V , t);' t' 4 r • MO , '' BA - CMAII 7& ... a ..

Jusz 29. Namur and Liege, VA —Northern of France, 13%—Sam bre and Meuse, 2%. brother, we must respect the feelings of attachment and veneration with which he clings to the memory of the departed statesman, whose opinions are still retained as a sacred inheritance or family heirloom, by the successor to his estates and title. There was ever a more than fraternal love be tween the brothers. The elder let slip no opportu nity of advancing the interests of the younger—of affording him those chances of distinguishing himself in his profession of which he so fully and so nobly availed himself; while the younger repaid those benefits with an almost filial piety, exhibited, not only during the lifetime of the former, but maintained with even increased intensity for more than a quarter of a century after his death. But, however conclusive the views of Viscount CASTLEREAGH delivered fifty years since, and under totally different circumstances, may appear to the present Marquis of LONDOND ERRY, we cannot attach the same weight thereto, or suppose that the progress of amelioration is to be suspended, because a member of a particular Government bed declared that there was then no intention of doing away with the office. As we have already pointed out, matters are at present in a very different condi tion from what they were in during the last year of the eighteenth century. The country is no longer involved in hostilities ; peace and tranquillity reign on every side. Communications which were then tedious and doubtful may, since the application of steam to purposes of navigation and locomotion, and the construction of railways, be effected with cer tainty, rapidity, and safety. Even the patronage of the office has been materially clipped, and a Viceroy is not required to arrange the representation of the various constituencies, or to mediate between the Government and the Irish Members. All the advantages that were connected with tne office have passed away, while the evils attendant upon a divided administration are even more perceptible than ever. Jobbing and intrigue are still, carried on in the precincts of the Castle. ' 4 Back-stairs influence" is in full operation, and party feeling—the fatal divisions that separate " the orange" from " the green"—are perpetrated through the bale ful atmosphere of the mock Court. If Lord CASTLE.. REAGH himself were. now in existence he would most probably recognise the propriety of the change, and the expediency of rendering Ireland an integral portion of the British empire, of cementing and rendering indissoluble the union which was effected through his agency. The Noble Marquis adduced, as a further reason against the abolition, the existence of a separate bar and a separate judicial staff. In other words, be cause certain distinctions are kept up which we verily believe to be deeply injurious to both countries, no attempt is to be made to effect any amelioration. It may, perhaps, be considered desirable, for a time at least, to preserve the local courts, but we have no hesitation in saying that the complete fusion and amalgamation of the English and Irish Bars is exceedingly desirable for both kingdoms, hut more especially for Ireland, to whose welfare and prosperity it is absolutely essential. Why, we ask, should distinctions be maintained which only tend to keep alive and foster a spirit of spurious nationality ? What public benefit can be derived from preventing an English barrister from practising, an English physician from prescrib ing, or an English surgeon from setting broken bones, in Ireland ? The laws are practically the same. There is ne difference in the general principles on which they are based. Diseases, too, are the same in character in England and in Ireland, and yet the most eminent member of the Irish Bar would not be allowed to plead in one of the Courts of Westminster or Lincoln's Inn, although he had received the same education, paid the same stamp duties, and even was entitled to be heard, and his position recognized in the highest tribunal of all, the court of ultimate resort—the appellate jurisdiction of the House of Lords ; neither could the most learned licentiate of the College of Physicians or Sur geons in Ireland legally practise the healing art on this side of St. George's Channel. Away, then, with these absurd distinctions at once. No longer seek to perpetuate the causes that lead to divisions and heartburnings in both nations, and prevent the inhabitants from considering that they are the same people, owing allegiance to the same SOVEREIGN, and that their interests are one and in divisible. Remove with all convenient speed every existing barrier to a complete and thorough union. And, first, let the administration of state affairs, and of the laws of the land be closely assimilated. Abo ish the Lord-Lieutenancy, and let the Bars be amal gamated. The Bill for the former purpose stands for Committee this evening, and we trust that a clause may be added to remove the objection so strongly urged by the Marquis of LONDONDERRY on Thursday evening. MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS. CITY, TW 0 O'CLOCK. The Cotton Market at Liverpool on Saturday closed firmly and with more spirit. Prices of all kinds were fully sustained. The sales were estimated at 10,000 bales, of which 1,000 American were taken for export and 2.000 ~n speculation.—ln Railway Shares only a limited business was done at decidedly lower prices. The Corn trade is steady. _ . We are advised from Nfunehester by Messrs. M'Nair, Greenhow, and Irving, that any mat4ial extent of busi ness is but seldom expected to result from Joan. which being what is termed •' between seasons," it is generally a period noted for much inactivity. Outwardly so a considerable portion of the closing month has realised its ordinary character. The transactions of the period, however, have only been exceeded once since 1845, and that was exactly twelve months ago. During the past week of the month so sensitive has this market now Be- cessarily b. come, while the demand for cotton gas pretty animated and general, and when prices of both cloth and yarns maintained comparative firmile,s, a con siderable amount of business was done in each. Imme diately upon the cotton market becoming quieter, and a decline in value taking place, a corresponding feeling here became perceptib!e, and led to an important cur tailment of the demand, which continued with increased unwillingness on the part of buyers to operate except f,,r pteasinz wants, until the arrival of the As , a, on the 22d, bringing more unfavourable accounts as to the growing crops of cotton, and additional confirmatory news as to the falling off of the receipts at the ports of the United States. The cessation of the demand was attended, it need hardly he remarked, with a decline in the value of both cloth and twist. Since this day week, with the revival of demand fur cotton, and the recovery of what it had lost in value, con siderable activity and animation have characterized this market. The purchases of both cloth and twist, which may be said to have recovered generally the decline from the rates prevalent previous to the depression; have been very extensive, and the result is as previously indicated. The accounts received by the steamer from New York, state that the supply of sterling bills was not large, and that drawers were firm, the demand being active. Financial matters appear to be sound, and there was not much speculation going on, although an anxiety prevailed to do business. Trade with the interior had been good, although the prices obtained were not always satisfac tory. The value of the foreign dry goods entered at New York, for consumption in the week, to the 19th ult., was 703,539 dollars, and fur warehousing, &c., 257,136 dollars. The accounts from the west concerning the crops were not altogether favourable; but it was too early to form an opinion. The Trent steamer will bring over nearly two mil- lions of dollars in specie. Accounts of June 8 have been received from Jamaica by way of the United States. The intelligence of the invasion of Cuba had been received there and caused some sensation. The Nona Scotian, alluding to the Government of New Brunswick having declined to send ate thorised delegates to Washington, for the put pose o advocating the interests of that province in the Pend. ing negotiations, says that the several provinces are interdicted from adopting that course, the British Government having left the whole matter in the hands of Sir Henry Bulwer, who is alone authorised to treat upon the subject. Of course our contemporary says there is nothing in existing arrangements to prevent per sons from the provinces using their influence at Wash ington, in order, if possible, to secure the advantages resulting from reciprocal trade with the Americans. We have already mentioned that the Attorney-General of New Brunswick, and the Hon. Mr. Chandler have pro ceeded to Washington to look after the interests of that province. We now learn that the Hon. William Young, Speaker of the Assembly of Nova Scotia, has also gone thither on a similar errand for the latter colony. Papers have been received from Port Natal to the end of April. Emigrants were arriving in considerable numbers, but they are dissatisfied with the Government allowance of land. Correspondence had taken place between them and the Government, complaining of the quality and quantity of the land appropriated to them; end in the end the local Government gave the emigrants forty-five acres instead of twenty. The emigrants who arrived after this arrangement looked for the same bounty, which in justice cannot be withheld. From the correspondence, it would appear that the greatest har mony does not exist with Use emigration agent and the Government, by which the emigrant is made to suffer. All the shipping had been enabled to discharge their cargo and passengers. There appears to be a great deal of activity consequent upon the arrival of so many emigrants. There is a very buoyant market fir Public Securities, and a further advance of per cent. has occurred. Con sols have been done at 964 and 96i. The New Three. and-a-Quarter per Cents. are 98k to Bank Stock has risen to 209 and 210. Exchequersbals are 675. to 70s. premium, and India Bonds 87s. premium. The foreign news is not of a character to influence prices, being generally favourable. In Foreign Securities the transactions have been un important. Mexican Bonds are rather firmer at 30 to *. Advices of 21st May state that Congress was to meet in extraordinary session on the 20th May. The most im • portant business was connected with the state of the treasury.

Letters from the leadin4 provincial markets held on Saturday state that a moderate busiues .as transacted in Wheat, at full prices. Grinding Barley, Oats, and Flour, were in somewhat improved request. In all other articles very little business was passii,g. Our advices from New Ynrk to the 23d ult. are to th.- effeet that large purchases of Wheat and Flour had tak-n place for home consumption. For export next to no- thing do;n7„. 150,000 bushels of ludiau Corn Lad sold at 64 to 72 cents. per bushel. Up to our market last week, coastwise, the receipts of all Eugll4l Gram were small. Those from Scotland were limited. From abroad we received 23,060 quarters of Whew, 4.257 di!to airley, 25.172 ditto of Oats, 899 ditto of Bean-4, 1.156 ditto of Pea-, 8 ditto of •L'arei. 50 ditto of Linseed, 3,174 ditto of Rape,eed. 37 ditto of Mustard Seed, 40 ditto of sundry seeds, '2,978 sucks and 240 bushels of Flour. From Essex a very moderate supply of Wheat was received fresh up to this ni9rnirig's ma , ket coastwise or by land carrisge. The receipts nun Kent, Cambridge shire, &c., were small, but of lull averegv quality. As scarcely any of last week's qualities were brought for ward, the show of samples of both red end white was trifling, even for the time cf year. Notwithstanding that the attendance of both town and country buyers was small, the demand for all kinds of Wheat of home produce . ruled steady, and a good cleat anee was effected, at prices quite equal to those obtained on this day se'nnigbt. Very favourable accounts have reached us from our large grain districts respecting the general ap pearance of the growing crops. Offers are still coming to hand from the eastern ports to ship largely at' present prices. Although the imports of foreign Wheat last week were extensive, and we undestand that shipments are pro gressing freely at Dantzic, the importers of that grain were firm to-day. The amount of business doing was not large; nevertheless, the quotations were well sup ported. About 4 . 000 quarters have been imported on account of the millers; however, the quantity on offer thia morning was not to say large. Scarcely a single parcel of home-grown Barley was brought forward. 'The supply of foreign was tolerably good. Grinding parcels were in fair request, at full currencies, but malt ing and distilling sorts were a dull sale. Malt—the supply of which was very moderate—met a slow inquiry; but we have no change to notice in its value. Scarcely any English Oats were on show; but the quan tity of foreign was large. All kinds commanded very little attention, a', prices barely equal to those obtained last week. Beans. met a slow trade, owing to the in creasing supplies from abroad. The supply of Peas was limited. All kinds moved off slowly, et late rates. In dian Corn was offering at is per quarter less ,money, without finding buyers. The Flour trade was steady, at late figures. CURRENCY PER IMPERIAL MEASURE.

The arrivals of stock from Ireland, last week, by sea for this market, were 3S Oxen, 56 Sheep, and 42 Ca,ves, in full average condition. The numbers of Foreign Beasts on offer here, to-day, were tolerably good—those of Sheep and Calves somewhat extensive. There was a considerable decrease in the receipts of home-fed Beasts fresh up to this morning's market, while their quality was by no means first-rate. The dead markets being very scantily supplied, and the attendance of buyers on the increase, the Beef trade ruled . steady, at an advance in the quotations of 2d per Sibs. The primvst Scots produced 3s 6d to 3s 8d per albs. From Norfolk, Suffolk, Essex, and Cambridgeshire we received 2.020 Scots, Home-breds, and Short-horns; from other parts of England, 350 of various breeds; and from Scotland 120 Horned and Polled Scots. The supply of Sheep was considerably less than that exhibite ion this day se'nnight. All breeds moved off steadily, and the currencies improved fully 2d per 81bs, the primest old Downs having sold at from 33 10d to 4s par Sibs. We were fairly supplied with Lambs, in which an average business was transacted at fell prices. the sale for Cslves was by no means active. In prices we have no change to notice.

SPAIN. Madrid journals of the 24th ult. have arrived. ARVAIZ is determined that the KING CONSORT shall not be appointed Regent during the illness of the QUEEN. Considerable dissatisfaction has been excited among the nobility by the attempt of CHRISTINA to procure for her children by Munoz the titles of Princes and Princesses. GERMANY. The Deutsche Reform, or Berlin, has the following on the expulsion of Chevalier BUNSEN from the House of Lords : If the most complete satisfaction for a rudeness unheard of in the diplomatic world can undo what has been done, the ►Marquts of Lansdowne's immediate mo tion on the subject has dons all that is possible. The first information of the worse than rude conduct of Lord Brougham to the Chevalier Bunsen, our am bassador at the court of Great Britain, arrived at the same time with this satisfactory explana tion. and as the chid organs in the press of E• gland unanimously condemn() i the improper pro et. e,lings of the Noble Lord, the indignation caused by a national insult, which had the satisfaction been less prompt would doubtlessly have been great, was in reality quelled in its birth. Tnis will explain why the majority of our journals contented themselves with extracting the opinions of the London papers. It is not the first contradiction which the noble author has given to his own theories in his " Practical Observations upon the Education of the People." The Correspondenz Bureau says that the Ministry do not intend to propose to the Zollverein Congress the reduction in the duties on corn and cattle which were proposed in the memorial of the Minister of Commerce, and accepted by the congress of manufac turers and merchants before whom the memorial was laid. A letter from Berlin, of the 25th, states that M. DE MONTEUFFIL, the King's Aide-de-Camp, has re turned from Vienna. The Austrian Cabinet has withdrawn the concessions which Prince DE ScuWART ZENBERG had made at his interview at Warsaw with the Prince of PRUSSIA. M. DE RADOWITZ was ex pected the next day. The Breslau and Leipie Gazette has the following from Vienna : - " It will be remembered that a stormy scene was not long since reported as having taken place between Ra detzsky and the Imperial Adjutant-General (Count Grfitme), and its occasion was also stated. The true cause was, however, not stated. It now appears that Radetzsky'a proceedings towards the Honved officers who had teen drafted into the Italian army, bad been disapproved by the Ministry at Vienna. Radetzsky had not only promoted such. of them as were distinguished by conduct and attainments, but also many who were disabled by sickness or otherwise, so that they might have the army as officers. When Count Griinne met the Marshal at Laybach the conversation turned upon this subject, and the latter complained of Radetzsky for taking upon himself to frustrate the intentions of the Government who had degraded the Honved officers to the ranks as a punishment due to rebels. Radetzsky re plied in a harsh tone that his army should be no institu tion for punishment, and he would never refrain from promoting any member of his army who appeared de serving to the rank of an officer whatever might be the notions held at Vienna. The War Minister appears to be ill at ease in his position, feeling the influence of Count GiUune in a very uncomfortable degree. Count Gyulay has again and again askei for his dismissal. The influence of Baron Hess appears to Count Gyulay more important still than that of Count Gtiinne; the former engrosses to himself the revision of e ery im portant order emanating from the War-office, while his assistance cannot be claimed for any work. It is be lieved that at length the change desired by the present Minister will take place; Baron Schouhals is to take the war portfolio, and Gyulay to succeed d'Aspre as commander of an army corps in Italy. The scientific Schonhals is one of the most fitting men that could have been found." A letter from Frankfort, of June 26, in the Cologne Gazette, says:—"lt is again asserted that the plenum will soon produce a central provisional power. Assuredly nothing could occur more fortu nately for the Prussian union than this rupture of the gentlemen of the federal palace with the principles of right and the general turn of mind of the German people ; but we must again call in doubt the truth of this intelligence. The news is confirmed that the retirement of M. JAUP, Minister of the Grand Duke of HESSE, was caused by the German question. A new embarrassment has arisen for Austria. The plenipotentiaries of England, Russia, and France have signed a protocol at London, guaranteeing to the King of DENMARK the integrity of his kingdom. The adhesion to the protocol is reserved for Austria. This declaration prejudices the rights of Germany, which Prussia alone defended. Austria must now show by acts whether she is the friend or enemy of Germany. In the former case she must act in con cert with Prussia, as any hesitation would denote a tendency hostile to Germany." T URKE Y. By the Levant mail we have received Constanti nople journals to the 14th June inclusively. They contain nothing of political interest. The Journal de Constantinople gives the following account of the excursion of the SULTAN : " The Sultan, after passing the night of the 2d off Lemnos on board the steamer Taif, proceeded towards the Isle of Candle:- On the 4th the Sultan arrived at Canes, where he was received with the most entuu aiastie demonstrations of joy by the inhabitants, the air resounding with cries of Long live the' Sultan, our wed-beloved Sovereign.' His Majesty was much affected at this sincere expression of welcome, and shortly after admitted the visit of the primates and prin cipal inhabitants of the town, whom he received in the most affable manner. The Sultan remained at Canes two days, during which the whole town constantly testi fied to his Majesty sentiments of the greatest submission and gratitude for the intentions and benefits of his Im perial Government. On the third day the Sultan paid a visit to the country house of the Governor-Genersl of the island, Mustafa Pacha, an honour which the latter well merited by the manner in which he has governed the island for many years. The Sultan left the Canea on the 7th for Souda, where he attended mosque. He afterwards went towards Itetimo and the city et Candle. F rum Cecelia the Sultan wilt proceed :0 Chio, and thence return to his capital in the middle of next week. At all tbe places he has visited the Sultan has left marks of his imperial munificence to all the public establish ments, and to the people the assurance of his paternal solicitude." --- An insurrection has broken out in Bulgaria. The insurgents are headed by Greek priests in the pay of Russia, and the insurrection is altogether the work of Russian agents. ITALY. The Piedmontese Gazette of the 25th states that a s-riois popular disturbance broke out on the 12th at Sutri (Roman States) against the Pontifical V e li tes . An imposing military force was sent there, and seven persons were arrested. The Giornale di Roma of the 20th contains a long list of military men who have been rewarded for their late services by the orders of Pius and of Sr. SYL VESTER, as also by advancement and gold medals. In the silting of the 24th of the Chamber of De puties of Turin, Signor MENAIIRE• read the report on the Ministerial Bill proposing the alienation of six millions of rentes for the payment of the war indem nity to Austria. A report having been current at Turin that the Piedmontese Government had stopped the monthly allowance to GARIBALDI, the Gazetta del Popolo of Turin of the 25th declares that the report is without foundation. The Piedmontese Gazette devotes a leader to the article of the Milan Gazette which we lately men finned, severely censuring the friendly behaviour of General Li Mattmoaa towards the Italian refugees who had arrived in the island of Sardinia under Colo nel Nlotin, notwithstanding their being deserters. The Piedmontese Gazette, while admitting that the military code is against them, declares that it .s ould be unjust to judge those soldiers and officers according to the inexorable precepts of a court martial, since public opinion, in all ages, has constantly distin guished from common desertion the case in which military men think it their duty to fight fur the ands peudence of their country. In support of its view of the case, the Piediaontese Gazette quotes the ex ample of the princes and people of Germany in 1813, who, tired of the yoke of NAPOLEON, preached and rewarded the desertion of Germans from the French army ; although the French would have had a right to judge and candemn such deserters by court martial, had they fallen again into their hands. The N az i o nato of Florence of the 22d states that Signor BALDASSERONI, the Tuscan Prime Minister, has taken with him to Vienna all the papers relating to the constitution and organic laws of Tuscany. The Council Chamber of the Tribunal of First In stance of Sassari (Sardinia) has decided that there were not sufficient motives for proceeding against Monsignor circular i 2 n k g re t t h , b e is c h l ? rg o y f n t , h ,t a t t o polbaecve, the e r Advocate, insisting on the incom p etence of the tri li:alwsc re abolishing ecclesiastica l p rivile g es.

The members of the Reform Club, ine'uding some of the most distinguished advocates of liberal principles in England, intend entertaining 1.-rd Palmerston at a magnifi cent banquet, early this month, as a testimony of their ad miration of his private character, and approval of the policy wlaich he In s adopted in the capacity of her Majesty's Secretary of State for Foreign Alf ars. Arrangements for a metropolitan dinner, to couirneworate the recent victory in the House of commons, are also stated to be in progress. FIE FRENCH REPUBLIC, We have received the Paris journals of Saturday and yesterday. In the sitting of the Assembly on Friday the Ministers sustained a severe defeat. M. BAROCIIE, the Minister of the Interior, ascended the tribune, and asked the Assembly to allow the Bill relative to the mayors to be placed on the order of the day for Thursday next. This was opposed by M. DR LA ROCIIEJACQUELIN, M. VATIMESNIL, and M. RAI:MOT, 411 Legitimatist deputies, on the ground that the matter was not urgent, as the Minister had represented it, and that it would be advisable to wait until the or ganic taw on communal organisation, now under ex amination before the Council of State, was ready. The Minister ascended the tribune a second time to persist in his demand, but the Assembly, by assis et lere, refused to place the Bill on the order of the day. A considerable amount of agitation followed this vote. The rest of the pro ceedings were not of any great importance. This decision will delay for six months the Bill, the object of which was to give the nominations of mayors to the Ministers, instead of to the commune. The result of the division on Mr. RosnucK's mo tion was known in Paris on Saturday, and was re ceived by all classes of Liberals with the utmost satisfaction. The reactionary journals content them selves with simply announcing the fact. Tne Presse says : " The speech of Lord Palmerston is incontestably the most remarkable of all that he has uttered since he has been in office. It would, in fact, be hard for a statesman at tacked with so outrageous a violence in all the acts of his political career to find for the defence of his honour and principles more dignity in tenure, more elevation in ideas, more lucidity in the statement of facts, and a more severe irony in the reprisals which his adversaries gave him the right of inflicting on them." The intelligence of the atrocious and cowardly attack made on the Queeen of ENGLAND by ROBERT PATE had excited the greatest indignation against its perpetrator in all classes of society. The four Bishops chosen to sit in the Superior Council of Public Instruction, in virtue of the law on secondary teaching, are the Abbe PARISIS, Bishop of Langres ; the Abbe MORLOT, Archbishop of Tours ; the Abbe DUPANLOUP, Bishop of Orleans ; and the Abbe CTOUSSET, Archbishop of Itrieims. It is said that the Ministry will be at once modi fi.d. in consequence of the check which it has received on the law of mayors. The National Assembly will, it is said, be pro rogued on the 15th August. The Conseil d'Etat has rejected the Ministerial pro position to adopt a protection of 15f. per 100 kilo ' grammes in favour of native and colonial sugar, but has agreed to 13f. 50c. It has rejected the proposi tion to allow the executive power to lower the duty without recurring to t he law by 2t . . 50c. But the Conseil d'Etat has agreed to a bounty for three years in favour of colonial sugars. The bankers of Paris, at a numerous meeting, have adopted the resolution proposed by M. FELIX Via.. RES, from the 24th of this month forward, not to pay or admit into their portfolios any bills not stamped. They will, therefore, return to their correspondents all commercial effects which do not comply with this rule, imposed by the late stamp law. electric telegrap a h ' s, in re M.

By insuring in that way the truth ~f the documents, which often arrive only atter being mutilated or altered, a great and moral revolution would be effected in the press to the profit of truth.
