T o conclude with the new Ballet . Divertissanent, by Paul Had the tumult subsided—had peace been Taglioni, entitled restored—there was scarcely an opinion enunciated by Mr. DISRAELI which we would not willingly endorse. He has published a treatise—aye, and a very powerful and convincing treatise—on some of the many causes of Indian disaffection ; and we believe that considerable additions might be made to his long and heavy bill of indictment. But still it must be remembered that the pre sent Ministry are responsible not for creating, but merely for continuing flagrant grievances, many of which are of long standing. We have repeatedly from time to time explained the dangerous con sequences arising from the annexation .of native States in consequence of the alleged failure of direct heirs, and the profound contempt of well established customs, and of every principle of equity and justice. The case of the unfortunate Rajah of Sattara must be familiar to a large number of our readers : the disregard of the practice of adoption, so prevalent among the native population, shook not only the con fidence of Princes, who saw precedents established by which their own rights and those of their families might be materially affected, but also of large and powerful parties throughout the country. For be it remembered that the new doctrine did not apply to Princes only —every landed pro-" prietor was more or less interested in the affair. It touched all Jaghiredars and possessors of Crown lands. And if estates of the annual value of fifty lacs of rupees, or 500,000/. sterling, had already been appropriated in Bengal alone, we cannot feel surprised if every person similarly circumstanced should feel alarm and dread at the novel and unwarrantable proceeding. There was also a belief that the religion of the great body of the people had been unduly tam pered with, and, however absurd we might con sider their prejudices and superstitions, any direst interference therewith should always be avoided. We might strive to lead imperceptibly, but the attempt to drive should carefully be eschewed. Our empire should be based on justice, and on respect for every native institution ; but so far from that being the case, the greatest grievances were inflicted without any tangible pretext, or, at all events, any that could satisfy an intelligent Hindoo.

Tt is the anomalous double government of India, which was deliberately extended for a fur ther term, that has occasioned the entire mis chief. The magnates of Leadenhall-atreet ruled matters with a high hand, and they adopted the most summary measures to silence and put down all who had the ma 'liners to complain of Cie existing state of affairs and to suggest remedial measures. The dangerous feelings existing among the Sepoy troops were repeatedly brought under their notice, and as repeatedly pooh-poo'ied as mat• ters of profound indifference. They unhesitatingly aimed at the noblest quarries, and Lord ELLEN BOROUGH and Sir CHARLES NAPIER—a Governor- General and a Commander-in-Chief in one of the Presidencies—were numbered amongst their vic tims, simply because they had the manliness to state inconvenient truths, and to protest against the policy pursued by the Boards of Leadenhall street and of Cannon-row. The time may speedily arrive for that stringent and searching investigation, so imperatively de manded, And should the despatches, now hourly looked for, prove favourable, as we sincerely trust maybe the case, nothing should be suffered to postpone, even for a single day, the steps neces sary to ensure the preservation and security of our Indian Empire. The sword of DAMOCLES has been too long suspended over our heads ; care should be taken that it should, for the future, have a less fragile support. Lord REDESDALE has given notice that he will this day move the adoption of the usual sessional order with regard to public bills, fixing the 7th of August as the last day for second readings, and making that a bill day. This is the result of a compromise between Lord DEmar and the Go vernment. it is an arrow directly aimed at Lord JOHN RUSSELL'S contemplated bill, which cannot possibly pass through its various stages in the Commons before that time. It is a portion of the same dodge which Mr. HENLEY at tempted to practise with respect to the Divorce and Matrimonial Cause 3 Bill, and should, albeit at the eleventh hour, induce the House of Com mons to proceed by resolution in enabling Baron ROTHSCHILD to take his seat, to which he has this day been unanimously elected by the citizens of London. It must now be obvious even to Lord Jogs RUSSELL himself, that his measure cannot prevail against the "FABIAN" tactics adopted against it. The Government will not give up a day for its discu3sion, will make no effort to enable it to pass in sufficient time. Even could it pass through the Commons, it would only strengthen the hands of their opponents, by showing that a majority of the House doubted the existence of the privilege which they may subsequently be compelled to assert. Should a collision take place, the Lords will only have themselves to thank for the contest which they have provoked, and the consequences whereof may be more formidable than they have at present any notion of. The time has arrived for action. Let Lord JOHN RUSSELL withdraw his bill, and the newly elected member for City of London present himself at the barof the House, in order t 3 take the oaths in the form most binding on his conscience. We can not doubt the result, if the matter be at once brought forward, and before the Liberal Members have dispersed, leaving matters in the hands of a few jaded Tories, and Ministerial hacks. De lays are dangerous, but in the present instance they will be fatal to the principle which every Liberal Member must have deeply at heart, and very prejudicial t) the unquestionable rights and privileges of the House of Commons. We cannot conceive that the house will calmly await the prorogation, without bringing the case of Baron ROTHSCHILD to a conclusion, on e way or the other. Ton tedious long rears has a matter that might properly have been disposed of within as many minutes, remained in abeyance, and for ten, or twice ten years more will it be shelved unless the House of Commons takes the matter into its own hands, and, at the eleventh hour, does that which it ought t) have done at the commencement. It is " The calm JOIINNT, who upset the coach," that now stops the way. If any doubt could re main on his mind as to the reception of his new bill by the Lards, should it ever be permitted to got there, it must now be completely we trust, then, that he may at l removed.ast enter on a more decided and s:raightfor war d course ; and, as be more than hinted on a previous occasion, advise Baron RoTHscarLD to present himself at the table, and brave every risk in vindication of his own rights and those of the constituents who i NE y ra.

Accounts from Liverpool state that the Cotton Market yesterday closed with a very firm appear ance, and last week's prices were fully supported. The sales amounted to 10,000 bales, 1,000 of which were taken on speculation, and 1,000 for export. In the Railway Share Market there was only a limited business transacted, but prices were at a slight improvement. Business in Mincing-lane is very dull, and it is evident that the suspense concerning India is exer cising a paralysing effect upon all branches of trade, because it is impossible to calculate what financial outlay may yet be rendered necessary. These departments which are more practically connected with the East are also materially influenced, and thus the anxiety felt for the receipt of the overland mail (the announcement of which is hourly ex pected) is increased almost to the highest degree. In sugar, tea, coffee, and rice the transactions are circumscribed, but their values remain without any material alteration. The George Marshal, arrived'from Sydney with gold, a n d th e G reat B r i ta i n from about Victori 2 l , l, l3 : with in thmore than 40,0001., is now daily expected. Besides this, it is thought probable that the Parana, due on Saturday next, will bring ulawards of half a million sterling ; so that there is every prospect of the imports of specie still being in excess of the exports, notwithstanding the large remittances to India and China. The silver market is firm, at previous rates, as there is a good demand. The supply here being insufficient, recourse is bad to the Continent, whither large amounts of gold, causing withdrawals from the Bank, are made in consequence. Thus, during the last few days further reductions have been made in the bank's stock of bullion, which has tended to diminish confidence in the favourable progress of monetary affairs, and all expectation of an immediate diminution in the rate of dis count has been temporarily dissipated. The Western Bank of London has declared a dividend at the rate of 3 per cent. per annum. The failure was announced yesterday of Mr. Guistiniani, a Greek merchant, and the financial agent of the Turkish Government. The liabilities have been estimated at 200,0001. and 300,0001., but the assets are said to be good. His suspension is attributed to speculations ; but it was recently elicited at the Court of Bankruptcy that he lived in a very extravagant style, and this injured his credit. Finding great difficulty in getting his bills discounted, a stoppage became inevitable. It is feared that several small firms may become em barrassed in consequence. The market for English Securities is very agitat ed, and, owing to numerous sales, a fall of nearly per cent. has already taken place. This move- BOMBARDMENT OF CANTON. went has been caused by a rumour that the Over land Mail is in, and that the advices are very un favourable, while it is also alleged that a fresh attempt On the life of Louis Napoleon has been made. Great excitement consequently prevails, and the values of all classes of stock and shares have suffered. There is now rather more firm ness since it is found that telegraphic advices from Paris report a slight improvement in the Renter, proving that th 9 rumour relative to Louis Napoleon is incorrect. Consols for money have been 91 and 91, while for account they dropped from 91 u I to 90i to 91. They are now 90i 91 and 91 b 91i respecively. The new 3 per cents have been as low as 91f ; the Reduced 91i and Long Annuities 7-16ths and 9-16ths. Bank stock is steady at 215 to 216.

It is to be regretted that the anxiously looked for intelligence had not come to hand, so that the house WAS com paratively in the dark as to the actual state and condition of the country. The mutiny might already have been suppressed, Delhi captured, and the ringleaders and murderers severely punished, or the disaffection and insubordination might have spread throughout the entire army, and been strengthened and supported by the opinions of the people generally. Seventeen dap had elapsed since any authentic accounts had been received, and ev en a Single day might have occa sioned a total chang e in the poaition and prospects of the Anglo-Indian Government. There was therefore a profaning impression that the might discus premature, that i t Ilion Was have been highly valuable in one state of facts, and exceed ingly dangerous in another. It naturally f o l lowed, that the amendment moved by Lord J on , RUSSELL in support of the Government that ‘, humble address be presented to her MAJESTY, t o assure her MAJESTY that the house will cordially support her MAJESTY in any effort which may be necessary for the suppression of disturbance in India, And in any reeaqure which may be required for the permanent establishment of tranquill ty and con tentment in that important portion of her MAJESTY'S dominion s " should have been carried without a division.

BERLIN, JULY 27. The Governments who are parties to the Zoll verein collectively claim from England, through the medium of Prussia, an indemnity for the losses sustained by their subjects at Canton—the bombardment having taken place without pre, vious intimation to their Consuls. The Paris correspondent of the Times (second edition) says : " The French Government, which had not been inf;rrned by telegraph of the result of the elections in Moldavia, on the 19th inst., has received a despatch on that subject from the French Consul at Jassy. It is believed that France will demand that these elections shall be annulled, and that it will be propoJed to regulate, at a Congress to be held in Paris, the various points of detail raised by the question of the Principalities. Supposing all that is said about illegality to be true, with the re collection •of the late French elections so fresh before us, it is amusing to see this Government all of a sudden so squeamish about electioneering morality." FR. 4 NOE. PARIS, MONDAY EVENING. The Moniteur contains an imperial decree pro mulgating the bill for making a levy of 100,000 men of the class of 1857. His Majesty has declined to bestow the office of Grand Almoner on his cousin, the Abbe Canino. The Pope and the Jesuits appear to have inocu lated the zealous young priest so completely their pernicious principles, that the Emperor feels that it would be inconsistent with his duty to bestow any office of responsibility on a priest so completely saturated with ultramont me views. The post of Grand Almoner will, therefore, be given to Cardinal Morlot, the Archbishop of Paris, who will I” the third prelate who has combined the two dignities, two of the highest which the Church has to bestow.

In reply to certain strictures addressed to Pied mont by the offic;al press of L mbardy, the Opinione of Turin of the 25th says " Far from being exposed to the calamities of iusurrection, Sardinia is of all countries that which has known best how to avert them. Austria is mistaken when she says that during the la.e dis turbances her Italian provinces have not suffered from Mazzini's attacks. It used to be said that the pipe of a French corporal had created in Italy a conflagration fatal to Austria. We will not say the same of the pipe of a Piedmontese corporal, but it is certain that the report of Sardinian can non in Italy would have quite a different effect fcom that of Mazzinian conspiracies ; for it would be a signal in which the people would have con fidence, because they would be convinced that if such an enterprise were commenced it would be with sufficient means, and that its object would be in harmony with the, wishes of the nation ; while Mazz;ni, although Austria thinks him more logical in his endea v o urs , h as ne ith er means equa l to the resistance he will meet with, nor au object sanctioned by public opinion." SPAIN. The Madrid journals of the 23d announce that in consequence of the disclosures of the late insurgent chief, Caro, the man who was deputed by the directing democratic committee which sits at Lisbon to superintend the insurrection in Andalusia had been arrested at Seville ; also that the Portuguese Government had established a very strict survei lance over the members of the Paid committee who remained in Lisbon. The Pensamiento of Valen cia bad, in virtue of the new law on the press, been seized on the 19th. A lighthouse was about to be constructed at the point of Artuch in Minorca. A letter from Widdin in the Augsburg Gazette says :—" The discontent felt by the Bulgarian people towards the Greek clergy continues to increase and already begins to produce its conse quences—the abandonment of the orthodox religion. THE PENINSULAR MAIL. SOUTHAMPTON, JULY 27. The steam-ship Alhambra, of the Peninsular and Oriental Steam Navigation Company, Captain J . K.

On the motion for going into committee on this bill, Sir G. GREY sa id i t was desirable that he •sh°l2ld then state the objects of this bill. The Board of Health possessed permanent p owers under several Acts e, Parliament. Th e fi rst was the Board of Health Ae' of 1848, and the other the Nuisances Removal and V! eases Prevention A c t s of 1848 and 1854, and Fpec i o' powers by order in council on the sudden appear ance s of epidemic in this country, and though p e en-lane° powers were created by these acts, Parliament orl granted a temporary authority by which their provisi °v f could be carried out. L ast year the present Board °,l Health was continued till the 29th July, or the !,°„ of the next sessi on o f P ar li ament, when it would COI ro that without some prov i s i on were made the prelt act would ex. ) i re next year as a matter of course. was, therefore, necessary to make provision this sego ° f for the continuance of the authority of the Board. ' d Health, who-e powers had been beneficially ilW i e le n g to many parts o f th e country. The Govern° in considering this ques ti on had come to tye determination that it was not desirable to ° opt tinue the pr esen t di st i nct and separate departeleptd, of the Board cf Health, with a president at its he with a seat in that house, but to transfer its power B , 4 the President and C omm i ttee of the Council on Bun—. Lion. This proceeding would be an economical l e : whilst it would secure the present efficiency' of ci e i board's operation, and as the President of the Cd sc i . had a teat in that house, it would still give to,Per7, ment that responsibility which hon, members were, ; desirous of seeing continued, and were navel% to part with. By the proposed change there. no be a consideraMe savinir, because the President, Private Secretary and other officers would be redtle; and it was hoped that when these departments °l b , united, it would be possible still further to reduce ; 0 , expense of the Board. The arrangement was Pee o f ciliated to meet the views of the House on the gr o ".l`, le economy, and providing at least as efficient superin, dence of the machinery of the Board of Works as et P r o sent existed. The Government had intended to i n trodg re , a bill to amend the act of 1848, but circumstances P,a vented, for thiseession, that desirable object. H e prope s e ",, now to make this a temporary measure instead if eP . O manent one, and h e asked for the continuance °le power of the Board of Health for a year longer; or !be end of the next session of parliament atter. its T o t sing. That would give the house an opportupiti considering and determinin g on next session the proe' t, pericanent measure of the governm en t on this sobkc On the motion for going into committee, Mr KNIGHT moved th a t t h e bi 1 be cono- ered this day six months.
