His high character and vast ( xperience must enti►le any opinion of his on milit try matters to great weight, and we rejoice to have received such powerful cor roboration to propositions, the execution whereof we believe to be imperatively required for the maintenance of the national honour, and the secu rity of the Angle-Indian Empire. As we have stated, we have no doubt as to the ultimate result. We are thoroughly convinced that the insurrection will be completely suppressed, the mutinee►a punished, and tranquillity restored. But great exertions must bo made for that purpose, and every shilling judiciously expended at the present moment will save a pound at some future period, besides many valuable lives, and the inconvenience and annoyance of permitting such a question to remain open for any protracted period. Every precaution shoal therefore be taken to apply adequate remedies to the existing evils. Not a single day should be lo,t, and inasmuch as Parlia ment must shortly be prorogued, ample powers should be taken to meet any Exigencioe that may arise. We may also add that full provision should be made not only for the Indian demand, but also for our Home defences. Surely, then, the addition of 2,000 seamen to our naval forces was totally inadequate to the magnitude of the emergency. That increase would scarcely meet the Chinese difficulty. But, as General EVANS truly remarked, " the demand for gun-boats is much more urgent at Galen' ta than in the Canton River." He emphatically declared, that "No assistance could be more gra tifying, or more useful to our countrymen on the banks of the Ganges, than a squadron of these gun-boats, and he hoped, therefore, that orders would be transmitted as speedily as possible to have them employed on that duty." This i 3 a point which we have repeatedly urged since the intelligence of the mutiny was received But, unfortunately, nothing has fallen from any Minister to show that the slightest attention has been bestowedon the subject. Lord PALMERSTON, l ' aSt night, entirely ignored the topic, although it was one on which Sir DE -LACY EVANS laid great stress. If the Premier could have made any sa tisfactory statement, he would most assuredly have done so. His silence, therefore, may be considered conclusive that nothing whatsoever had been done in the matter. Once more, the n , we trust, that some member will insist ou a categori cal reply from Sir CIA ELF:s WOOD, as to whether ny stop has been taken, or is in contemplation, with respect to the gunboats now rotting in ou t arbours, but which might render such important ervice on the coast and in the rivers of India. The sum of 200,0001., asked for the extra expenses of the militia between this time and the 25th of March next, a period of seven and a half months, is manifestly totally inadequate. It is said that thirty militia regiments are to be forthwith embodied, and surely 7,3331. 6g. Bd., or something less than 1,0001. per month, cannot possibly be sufficient for each regiment, to say nothing of the probability that many others may also be required for actual service. As General EvArrs declared "not less than 50,000 men should be embodied." We place great reliance on LoNroN, wED EsDAY -EVENING AUG US r 12, the national spirit ; we believe that every true hearted Englishman would be prepared to come forward with purse and person in defence of his country. But such devotion should not be re quired, and it is far better that the public de mands should be limited to the mere question of d. A much greater number of the militia should therefore be called out, and full authority should be token to employ regiments that volun teer for the duty not only in the colonies, where they might replace the present garrisons, but even in India, should their services be require'd at the post of honour and of danger. We know something of the high spirit by which both officers and men are animated, and we have no doubt that notwithstanding the ill-treatment they received at the termination of the Russian war, they would still be found ready and willing to answer promptly and satisfactorily every call, not merely of duty, but of the most chivalrous honour. Lird PALMERSTON declared that greater time would be lost in sending men forward from Malta and other Mediterranean stations, by the overland route, than would be required by long sea. With the greatest possible respect for this opinion, we _must still doubt the fact. There are 'he men actually at Malta, and we do not believe that there would be the slightest difficulty in ob taining the permission of the SULTAN and of the PACIIA, for their transit through the country, or even in obtaining their assistance and co-operation for facilitating the journey across the desert. The case is not at all analogous to that of a war between rival Powers, where such a permission might be regarded as a breach of neutrality. The only difficulty would be in obtaining the means of transit down the Red Sea and on to India. This might occasion some trouble and expense, but we have no doubt that it could be accom plished ; and the presence of a few thousand dis ciplined troops in India a month or two earlier than they could otherwise be received would well repay the cost. Directions have been forwarded to the Cape to send every soldier that can possibly be spared. But by substituting militia regiments almost the whole of the present garrison could be forwarded, and thus eleven regiments would at once be made available. These matters may prove costly, but the Indian Empire should not be unguarded for ten or twenty millions sterling, more especially when the entire cost will eventually be provided for from 'lndian resources, and wherethe outside that can be required from the United Kingdon, will be a guarantee to enable the Anglo-Indian Government to obtain the necessary funds at a cheaper rate. It now seems to be universally conceded that the Company's rule shall be speedily terminated, and that the Indian debt must be provided for from Imperial resources. It is, therefore, our interest to see that the money should be. obtained at the cheapest possible rate ; and this, too, is a point to be considered before the prorogation. Sir CHARLES WOOD absolutely refuses to say whether Commodore KEPPEL has been recalled or not ! This seems to confirm the rumours that have been-circulated to that effect, and to ,lead to the conclusion that the nation is about to be deprived of the valuable services of that gallant and distinguished officer. A strict investigation into the causes of the loss of the Raleigh has al ready been held, and Commodore KEPPEL has been fully and honourably acquitted, and the sword which be has wielded with so much effect against the enemies of his country restored to him by his brother officers. He has also • xhibited on a trying occasion the bravezy and skill for which he has invariably been dis tinguished. Why, then, supersede or recall him from the position for which he is so pre-eminently qualified ? Is it in obedience to some red-tApist tradition, drawn from the musty shelves of the Admiralty ? or is it to perpetrate a snug job in favour of one of the family patty—one of the P.QSSELLS,!GEEYS, and MINTOT, whose unflinching nepotism was so beneficial to themselve9, if not t the community at large ? The First Lord of the Admiralty is not the man to let slip any chance of helping a friend ; and we fear that what ever may be the reasons publicly promulgated, the interests of an ELLIOTT may be the chief cause of the intense anxiety to seize on any (acme, however frivolous, whereby he may bo pro moted, although at the expense of one of the most efficient and distinguished officers of the Royal Navy. We cannot altogether forget that Com modore KEPPEL was sent to replace, and supersede an ELLIOTT—thit his exploits have cast his pre decessor in some degree into the shade, and it may be that the proceeding has been taken for the mere purpose of giving another chance of prolix lion to the favoured ELLIOTT Ws must, however, protest against the contu melious and insolent manner in which Sir CHARLES WOOD refused to answer the question of the Member fur Southwark. A simple inquiry was made respecting a matter of deep interest to the House and country. It was asked, whether the gallant officer, whose daring exploits had so recently filled the columns of the public journals, whose name had become almost a household word in every dwelling throughout the length and brea l .dth of the land, was to be sacrificed at the altar of routine to be made another victim to red tapiam ? Surely in this there was no interference with the Royal Prerogative. Nothing to show that any naval appointment has been, or would be impeached. Information was required on an important t)pic, and Sir CHARLES WOOD, with true official arrogance and impertinence, thought proper to refuse it. If any additional naval estimate remained to be voted an answer could be enforced, and we shall be greatly disap pointed if some Honourable Gentleman does not repeat the interrogatory to the Prime Minister in place of the subordinate, before the conclusion of the Session. Can we feel surprised that the entire system of promotion in the Navy and Army should be complained of under such circumstances. The country wants " the right man in the right place," but Sir CHARLES WOOD wishes to involve everything in mystery, to stir up the official mud, so that no authentic information can be obtained. This insolence should not be tolerated by the House of Commons. The guardians of the national purse should know on what grounds they are required to grant the supplies. They have a right to ascertain everything respecting the expenditure of the money which they have granted ; and if they allow themselves t 3 be snubbed by such a man as Sir CHARLES WOOD, they may bid " a long farewell to all their greatness." The Executive have for some time pest been gradu 1 1 a y encroaching on the privileges of Parliament, and if • this last specimen of out rageous impudenc e b e sanctioned, it will be im possible to tell where the line can be drawn, or to what extent official impertinence may be carried. d the Doke and 88:tfor Paris ; r l -l o ' latoy have The Duchess (Dow.) of Stacpool e Marquis of Stacp oole, have le ft Locg'aeng his Excellency C omte and the C omte left Long's Hotel, for Dieppe.

The Emperor arrived at St. Cloud yesterday evening at 8 o'clock. • The letter of the Times' Paris correspondent (second edition), dated yesterday, G p.m., says : Everything appears to confirm the correctness of the information I communicated yesterday touching the settlement of the Moldc-Wallachian difficulty. The Pays has been authorised, or per mitted to say, in an article criticising the lan guage of the English press, that " we also believe that the question has been resolved at Osborne," though not in a way hinted at by some of the English journal 4. The Pays, I suppose, does not yet know much more about the matter, but it is probable that any dif ference that may have been caused by the hot headedness of diplomatists at home or abroad would easily be removed in an hour's quiet conver sation between the principal personages concerned. At any rate, there is a general impression that no thing will come of it—at least nothing unpleasant. M. Vogorides will, perhaps, get a hint not to take the French elections too faithfully as his model in future, and a word or two of remonstrance, repri mand, or encouragement, as the case may be, will be addressed to the subordinate actors. If, as is believed, the conference will have to decide the question of the elections, it is natural that the whole of the facts, and not ex parte ones, as we now have, will be laid before it, and judged with as much partiality as any one can expect from them. Despatches from the Foreign-office were this day received at the English Embassy, and were forwarded without delay to Trou ville, where the Ambassador has been staying for some days past. It is probable that they contain the result of the conversations at Osborne on that and perhaps other questions. A telegraphic despatch vas received here this morning from Con stantinople, announcing that matters remain in statu quo in that capital. The Ambassadors had made no preparation to quit the city, but were awaiting further instructions from their respective Governments. So far so good. It is also stated that it was decided at Osborne that, in the event of Lord Elgin and Baron Gros not attaining the object of their mission to China, a more decided action in common should be adopted." FRANCE. PARIS, TUESDAY EVENING._ The Emperor and Empress are expected this evening at St. Cloud, on their return from Havre, via Rouen. The Moniteur contains a decree nominating the president., vice-presidents, and secretaries of the councils-general of the departments for the session of 1857. The Siecle, in an article on the crisis at Constan tinople, contains the following : " Austria, after having been the most doubtful ally of the Western p)wers, and the most ungrate ful ally of Russia, now seeks to profit by the unin telligent pride of the Sultan, and by the pretensions to exclusive preponderance of England, to satisfy her eternal craving after the Danubian provinces. But if the policy of good sense - is hearkened to, we shall, speedily see it adopt the attitude peculiar to unmasked egotists, and implore the French Cabinet to forget its unworthy conduct. She moreover well knows that a word from France would cost her Italy. The more we reflect on the events in Con stantinople, the less do we understand the conduct of the British Government and of its ambassador. Can the influence of Great Britain increase by the separate administration of Moldaviaand Wallachia? Would Eagland sell less British produce under the union ? If Lord Redcliffe had only been animated by a desire to lower our. influence in the East, we Fhould prove to the legitimist journals who daily taunt us with our sympathies for the English alliance, that we place the honour and grandeur of France above all questions of alliance. The English would then have no more resolute adversaries than the. French democrats, of whom we are one of the humble organs. But all these suppositions ara un called for, and we persist in the belief that every thing will be arranged in a pacific manner." BOURSE, Aug. 11.—The following were the last quota:ions : Cub. fr.

In order that this proposition might have bad the appearance of being, if not serious, at least just, it would have been necessary to have convoked all the elec tors and all the commissioners at Constanti nople, in order to hear all parties ; for, to all persons who know how things take place at Con stantinople, it is evident that the caimacans, if they alone had been convoked, would have found the means of justifying themselves. Sugh, however, is the plan of concialiation which the journals of - Vienna and those of London so bitterly reproach M. de Thouvenel and his colleagues with having rejected. What qualification would not these same journals have given to the plenipoten tiaries if they had fallen into this snare ? It evi dently results from these facts that the forir Ambassadors have carried the spirit of conciliation to its farthest limit 4, and that their greatest anxiety has been to preserve the dignity of the Turkish government by causing its decisions, dis regarded by its own subjects, to be respected. If the proposition of verification had been accepted, the affair would have been referred to the commis sion at Bucharest, and the question would not have assumed the proportions which Lord Redcliffe, Austria, and Turkey have so inconsiderately caused it to talie." AMERICA. (BY ELECTRIC TELEGRAPH.) The United States Mail steamship Atlantic has arrived, with advicea from New York to the Ist inst. She has brought $364,456 specie on freight. Her advices have been anticipated by the Van derbilt. On the 31 instant the Atlantic passed the Royal Mail steamer Persia in lat. 42, long. 63, hence ; and on the same day, in lat. 42, long. 62, the screw steamship New York, from Glasgow for New York. Among the pazsengers by the Atlantic is the agent of the Great Southern Convention, who visits Europe for the purpose of establishing a line of steam-ships from Norfolk, Virginia, to Havre, or some port in England ; ex-Governor J. A. Wright, - United States' Minister to Berlin, accompanied by Mr. S. Wright, Secretary of Legation ; and the Hon. W. W. Boardman. RUMOURED VISIT OF THE QUEEN TO FRANCE. It is said th a t th e P r i nc e Consort has accepted theinvitation of the Emperor of the French to be present at the grand review which is to come off at Chalons-sur-Marne in the approaching month of September, when upwards of 50,000 men will be as smbled in the camp. And also that it is not improbable that the Queen herself will take that opportunity of paying a return visit to the Impe rial family, at the Enape-or's country residence at Compiegne. THE REVOLT IN EV - DIA.-THE ARMY. Facts and figures are ugly thing. They stare at us'with immovable features, and tell an irresistible tale of our errors. When we ponder over a return such as the following, we nearly come t the con clusion that we must have been mad all along or to'ally blind, to have called an arm into life which was intended for our enemies, but which has now turned out to be a double-edged sword, whose backhanded blows are draining our best blood. One thing is certain, the Bengal Army, which has ceased to exist, must be buried, and that for ever. European Commis stoned Officers. Distribution. Qaeen's Troops .. • .

The native army, on the other baud, including the police, amounted to 288,569 of all ranks. To the latter must be added, according to the same official authorities, the standing armies maintained ia time of peace, according to treaties, by the several independent native princes in alliance with the British Government, 398,918. If we make allowance for officers on leave in England, and for other casualties, and, on the other hand, take into consideration the number of civilians at different stations, we may set.down the number of 50,000 as a fair estimate of the English men who were in India at the time of the outbreak. On the other hand, we see that 687,514 native sol diers of all grades were accounted for, a proportion of about one European to every fifteen native , . Thee are fearful odds, as the Englishmen were scattered over an area of more than a million square miles.—Advertiser. BEALTR OF LONDON DURING THE WEEK. (From the Report of the Registrar -General. ) In the week that ended on Saturday (August 8) the number of deaths registered in London was 1,224. It differs little from those of the two previous weeks, which were 1,209 and 1,238. In the ten years 1847-56 the average number of deaths in the weeks corresponding with last week was 1,217 ; but as the deaths of last week occurred in an increased population, the average, with a view to comparison, should be raised proportionally to the increase, in which case it will become 1,339. The number now returned is therefore less by 115 than the average rate of mortality would have produced ; but as the period from which the latter is derived includes two weeks, viz , those in 1849 and 1354, when cholera was extensively fatal, it will be seen, if due allowance is made for the increase in the average arising from that cause, that the mortality of the present time is rather high for a season when the public health is not disturbed by any extraordinary epidemic. The progress cf diarrhea appears to have received a check ; for whereas during the six previous weeks the weekly number of deaths from that disease rose by de grees from 33 to 302, it fell last week to 258, which is almost the same as that of the week that ended July 25.,h. The air was considerably colder in the latter part of last week than it had been for a month, and was, in this respect, more favourable to the health of that part of the population which is peculiarly subject to fatal attacks of the disease. Of the 258 persons who died last week from diarrhea', 222 were carried cif in the first or second year of life, 12 were two years of age and less than 20, none died between the years 20 and 40, only 2 between 40 and 60; the next period exhibits an increase, 22 persons having died who were 60 years cid and less than 80. I The deaths referred to cholera, which were 24 in the preceding week, and 30 last weet. Twenty out of the 30 occurred to infants. Adding together the numbers under diarrhea' and cholera, it appears that 8 deaths from these complaints occurred in the sub-district of St. Mary Paddington, 7 in that of Belgrave, 9 in Sr. Margaret Westminster, 8 in St. John Mat ylebone, 7 in Somers Town. 8 in Poplar, 7 in St. Paul Deptford, and smaller numbers in nearly all the other sub-districts. The deaths from typhus and common fever were rather more than they had been for many previous weeks, having been 48.. From somtll-pos there were 5, from invades 14, from pcail-ttinn, 32, and from booping cough 38. A man died of ulceration of the ilium from drinking chloride of zinc by mistake for gin. The deaths of five nonagenarians are returned, namely, of 3 men and 2 women. Two men were respectively 94 and 95 years of age ; and a widow who died on August 6th, in the workhouse, \Yapping, is stated to have at tained the great age of 106 years. Last week the With of 736 boys and 753 girls, in all 1489 children, were registered in London. In the ten corresponding weeks of the years 1847.56 the average number was 1455. At the Royal Observatory, Greenwich, the mean height of the barometer in the week, was 29704 inches. The mean temperature was 65 2 degrees, which is 31. degrees above the average of the same week in 43 years (as determined by Mr. Glaisher). The mean temperature was nearly 73 deg. on Monday and Tuesday, which is more than 10 deg. above the ave rage ; on the last two days of the week it was below the average. The highest readings in the week occurred on Monday and Tuesday, and were 88 deg. and 87.6 deg. ; and the highest readings iu the sun on the same days were 108 deg. and 114 deg. The lowest reading of the thermometer occurred on Friday, and was 52 4 deg. The range of the week was 35.6 deg. The mean dew-point temperature was 56.3 deg., and the difference between this and the mean temperature of the air was 8 9 deg. The mean temperature of the water of the Thames was 69.4 deg. The wind blew from the south-west on every day except Wednesday. Raia fell to the amount of 0 85 in., the greater part of it on Thursday.

Barley was in short supply and steady request, on former terms. Fine malt sold at full currencies, but inferior kinds met a dull inquiry. There was a good demand for oats, at very full prices.

CIRCASSIA. The invalitle Russe of the Ist publishes some details of the military operations which have lately taken place by the Russians in the Caucasus ag tinst Schamyl, of which we have had only a brief men tion. Prince Orbelian, wishing to occupy the plateau of Salatavia, advanced towards that po , i.- tott in the middle of Jun., with tea b tttalions of infantry, seven squadrons of cavalry, and ten pieces of artillery. Schamyl, having received in formation of the attack meditated against him, caused all the families with their flocks to remove f r om the villagesintothe interior, and then occupied v i e villages with bis troops. On the 4th July he himself arrived at Salatavia with reinforcements. He endeavoured to cut off the supplies of Prince 0 rbelian, in order to compel the Russians to retreat. The intended manoeuvres of the Tcherkeses were however betrayed, and they were themselves sur rounded and attacked on all sides at once. A small !lumber of them only submit - 63d, the others pre fort el to fight to the last, and 400 of them were killed. Among them were Ismail Naib, the aitemir of Salatavia, a cacti, and several other notalile personages. The combat la , ,ted five hours ; the Russians, according to their report, bad only three officers and eight soldiers killed and 44 wounded. Prince Orbalian attained the object of his got possession of th e i m p or t an t post movement,of satt and Ivi a. The St. Petersburg accounts of the 4th inst. mention a report sent to the Government on the Bth ult. concerning a very brilliant affair which took place on the 3il at Glendschick, on the coast of the Black Sa. The report has been forwarded by M a jor-General Filipson, the officer in command of the Russian troops in those parts, and states that the Filibustering troops, under the orders of a certain Colonel Lepinsky, had been surprised by the Russians landing troops under Major Benas chow, who had succeeded in capturing a large (pan-. tity of powder, two rounds of grape-shot, 500 grenades, and other valuable stores of ammuni tion, which had been placed there in charge of the garrison, and been thought quite se cure from any Russian attack. The Russians are said to have had only eight men severely wounded and two killed in storming the defensive works and capturing the guns in position. The whole affair appears to have taken place from the too great confidence reposed in the courage of the garrison to defend their position by Lepinsky, who had otherwise used every precaution in fortifyine , the point of danger, as far as science was concerned. The Russian Government has given orders for the construction of screw machinery for nine ships. of-the-line, two corvettes, and ten galliots, besides four transport ships. There are at present in the camp of Peterhoff no less than 4,000 cadets be longing to the army, principally . in the branch of artillery, and the Grand Duke Nicholas is often employed in witnessing their exercise in gunnery. THE PRINCIPALITIES. The Nord contains the following remarks on the late diplomatic rupture at Constantinople : " We have received letters which complete and correct, in certain points, the details given as to the nature and bearings of the proceedings of the ambassadors of the four powers on the subject of the elections of Moldavia. According to these accounts, what to )k place was this :—The ambas sadors did not demand, as some of the Austrian and English journals assert, the dismissal of the caimacan, nor did thsy even demand, as most journals have alleged, the pure and simple annul ment of the elections which they knew to be stained with fraud ; they merely asked that a strict verification of the elections should be pro ceeded to, in order to establish publicly and clearly whether the prescriptions of the firman con voking the electors had been observed or violated. At any other place than Constantinople, and on any other occasion, people would only, have seen in this proposition what it really meant—namely, the desire to give to Europe and to the popula tions of the Ottoman empire a striking proof of r w o lu p9i h rin m g ig t h h t e h f a a v faults and been ascribed good dispositions of the Ottoman government, or of aff or di ng th a t government the opportunity of an da iib bu s e e dto s the b committed,lin zeal and a functionaries acting from culpable motives. The THE NEWS FROM INDIA. The non-receipt of the Indian telegraph leads to an impression that the steamer from Calcutta may again have been.detained by order of the Governor- General. The last and preceding steamers were detained respectively four days and one day. The Peninsular and Oriental Company have au thorized their agents at Malta to allow the packets bringing the Marseilles portion of the homeward Indian mails to touch at Cagliari on their passages from Malta to Marseilles, in case the Admiral on the station should be desirous of transmitting from that point a telegraphic summary of the intelligence. This arrangement will in no way interfere with the due arrival of the steamers at Marseilles, but will afford the advantage to the government and the pu'ulic of at lca3t 24 hours' earlier reception of news by means of the tel.egraphic wires from THEATRE ROYAL-ITALIAN OPERA. The early closing of the two rival opera helves of the metropolis has a,ffo ded to our manager an iop portunity of commencing his brief season of Italian mu- ie before t the , u 'ccl in ne a n y t , lY th o e f extending presume.sualperio ß l, e a t n h d consequently it theatre pi esented a goodly array last ev,euing of our musical amateurs, and with them many strangers, who have come see the wonders of art in another direction. The operatic troupe of the occasion is that attached to her Majesty's Theatre; under the direction of Mr. Lumley, including a number of vocalists whose names are new to the Mancliestr public. Among these are Madlle. Spezia, Madame Roma, and Signor Giuglini, who, 1 with Signor Beneventano, were the leading voices in Verdi's " Il Trovatore," the piece sleeted for the opening last night. This opera has placed the name of Verdi much higher in t!e es . imaii en o f the English musician, than any previous production with which he has favoured us. Extravagant as some portions of the story may be, it nevertheless is so skilfully adapted as to excite and sustain the general inte rest, while the composition contains several beauti ful and characteristic melodies, occasionally good part-writing, and, thoueti somewhat overloaded with noisy instrumentation (the great mistake of Verdi), it is less offensive in this respect than some of his previous works. It leaves a favourable im pression, and hope for future improvement. Th e " Tacea l t notte," for instance, is a brilliant and graceful air. • There ie something very dramatic in the one sung by Azuceaa, " Stride la vampa !" The due, " tin momento," is pleasing, as is also the baritone melody, "Il balen," whilst there is a graceful charm about "Ah ! si ban"—and many other portions are equally worthy of note. Madlle. Spezia possesses a voice of rather peculiar character. It is unequal, or perhaps it would be more just to say that it is varied in quality. With many very fine notes, its power over the audience consists more in truthful expression, in the facility of adapt ing characteristic tone to particular passages, than iu mere sweetness or fulness of organ. It is like true emphasis and artistic modulation in the read ing of a skilful elocutionist. Some of these notes, by their consistent management, have a very strik ing effect, occasionally, perlisps, a little harsh, until the s'yle becomes familiar, but very telling when the artist is fairly understood. Indeed, Madlle. Spezia is a true artist in the best sense of ihe word ; not only in the mere skill of vocalisa tion, but in those higher qualities of art which are in relation with feeling and intellect. We do not remember to have witnessed a finer display of lyric art than in the last act, where with the " orridaterre," joined to the "Miserere" and the "Ah! che la morte, the composer has presented so fine a scene of dramatic interest. Signor Giuglini came to London at the commencement of the present season, and has shown that sterling talent requires less blowing of the trumpet than we are apt to suppose. His first appearance was in "La Favo rita"—there bad been little said about him—there were no three-column articles preceding or follow ing his debut, but his position could not be shaken; his fine violine tone of voice, his graceful style, so thoroughly free from exaggeration, and the occa sional touches of pathos which he contrived to throw into his singing, won rapidly upon large and interested audiences, and we believe it is very long since a more legitimate appreciation has been ac corded to a comparatively unknown artist. In the earlier portion of the opera Signor Giuglini ap peared somewhat out of voice, but he rapidly gained upon his audience, and in "Ah ! si, ben moi," fairly " won his spurs." This brought a vociferous encore, and the gratification was fully maintained in the air frnin the tower. The whole of this last act was a triumph. We regret the inability to say much that is favourable of Signor Beneventano. His voice seems rarely to be under his entire con trol—it is loud without richness of tone, and be appears to prefer breadth of effect to delicacy and ' truth of expression. With all his faults, and they are not a few, his careful attention to the business of the performance redeems much that is unplea sant, and is well worthy of note. Of Madame ' Poma we have little to say ; the part of Azucena ' does not appear suited to her quality of voce, which is rather a mezzo than a contralto ; nor does the lady indicate that artistic faculty demanded in a character which the highest vocal genius on the stage had made her own. —Manchester Examiner.

FOSTER, the usual annua returns of Divisions of the "louse, Select Committee 2, and Private Bilis, were ordered. SMOKE NUISANCE (SCOTLAND) ABATEMEN' BILL. Oa the motion that the bill A 3 amended be con sidered, Mr. BUCHANAN opposed the bill on representations that bad been made to him that its operation wouli materially interfere with the manufactures of Scotland, By the hill the great aggressors would escape its penal ties, while the smaller ones would ba caught in its meshes. He moved the further consideration of the bill till this day three months. Mr. KINN AIRD expressed his surprise at the motion of the honourable member for Glasgow at this stage of the bill. In London, where every branch of manufacture was carried on, a similar act had been in operation for some time, and had been found to work well, both for• the manufacturer and the public gene rally. This bill had been for a considerable time before the people of Scotland, yet not one petition had been presented against it. He expressed his regret at any exceptions having been introduced into the bill, but he felt certain that in a year or two hence, the p rsons engaged in the trades excepted would apply to be brought within its provision. He opposed the motion. The amendment was negatived without a division. The bill, as amended, was then considered. Mr. BUG aANAN moved the substitution of the words " 200 yards" for " a quarter of a mile" in refer. ence to the distance of factcries from a town to be ex empted from the operations of the bill. Mr. KINNAIRD opposed it. The house then divided. The numbers were— Fur the amendment.. Against it Majority The amendment was consequently negatived. The bill as amended was then ordered t , ) be read a third time to-morrow. 57 -54 SALE OF OBSCENE BOOKS, &c. PREVENTIVE BILL, The house went into committee on this bill and the clauses were agreed to. Sir E. PERRY proposed to bring up a clause to exempt Scotland from the operations cf the bill. Mr. ROEBUCK protested against proceeding with the bill in such indecent haste. If the bill was good for England, it was equally good for Scotland ; but a more preposterous piece of legislation was never sent down from the House of Lords, and that was saying a good deal. It was an attempt to make people virtuous by act of Parliament, and he was afraid it would be made use of to establish a sort of magisterial inquisition. Sir G. GREY supported the bill, observing that it was brought in by the Lord Chief Justice t 3 correct an abuse which bad come under his own eye. M. ROEBUCK called attention to the celebrated classical works which would come within the category of works calculated to Excite the passions of youth, and asked where a line of prohibition could be drawn. They should depend upon the honest, upright feeling of the country to put an end to the evil, and in that way more would be done than by all their inquisitorial acts. Mr. AYRTON had given notice of,an amendment to the mover of the bill, whose approbation it had met with, and he was surprised to find that the bill was about to be reported without it. Sir G. GREY suggested the withdrawal of the clause, leaving it to the Lord Advocate to introduce a clause at a future day applicable to Scotland. Sir E. PERRY consented to withdraw his amendment on that understanding. Mr. NAPIER gave his cordial support to the bill. After some discussion, in which Mr. M. Milnes, Mr. Melina, Sir E. Perry, and other hon. members took part, Mr. LOCKE said that the word " exhibition" in the clause was a dangerous thing, and might be applied to persons showing a friend a picture, &c. If it was to be applied only to a public exhibition, for money, care should be taken to guard the innocent portion of the public against the police acting beyond their duty. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER re minded the committee that the question was whether Scot. land should remain in the bill. It would be better for the house to consider that point only, and reserve the other matters for consileration till another stage of the bill. Mr. ROEBUCK alluded to the existence of gamb ling-houses and houses of ill-fame. The latter were to be found in the best streets of London, and if they were impotent in putting down houses of ill-fame, he thought they would be found equally so in putting down the publication of obscene books, &c. Would any hon. mew her dare to say that houses of ili-fame were not as objectionable as the publications referred to. Some persons considered naked statues indecent, and he was inclined to believe with Swift, " the nicest people have the nastiest ideas." Maoy, he said, believe d these statues to be indecent, especially those representing the female figure, and he had heard persons complain of the Greek slave, but he should have thought that persons could have looked upon it as cool as the marble itself, but it appeared there were many hot and prurient people who looked upon it otherwise, and went so far as to state that all nude figures should be destroyed or covered with aprons , . The Venus and Adonis in the canting National Gallery, might under this bill be considered as useless to erect buildings an obscene production, and any hypocritical Nothing would, there• justice cause csaaufes,esintds itd ewstoruulcdtiboen. for their reception. After some discussion, on the suggestion of Sir G, GREY the bill passed through committee pro forma, on the understanding that it should be recommitted for further discussion. SUPPLY. Mr. FITZROY brought up the report of supply which was a g reed to,after some remarks, relative to Pimlico improvements. MILITIA. Sir J. RAMSDEN obtained leave to bring in a bill o defray the expenses of the pay, clothing, and other xpenses of the disembodied militia in Great Britain and Ireland. WAYS AND MEANS. On the motion for the house going into committee on ways and means, Mr, WISE asked what course the Government in tended to take with reference to the 2,0001. that bad been paid for a chapel in Paris after the house had re jected the vote of 10,5001. fir its purchase. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said that he had not been able to communicate with Lord Cowley on the subject, and was enable to answer the question. TEX AND SUGAR DUTIES The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER then moved his resolutions relative to the continuance of the present tea and sugar duties for two years. In the course of his statement the right hen. gentleman said that during the years 1855 and 1856 the revenue deriveed from tea and sugar amounted in round numbers to 10,500,0001. In 1855 the sugar duties produced 5,053,0001., 'and in 1856 5,129,000/. Toe tea dnties in 1855 amounted -to 5,310,000/., and in 1853 to 5,536,0001. As the reduction of duties greatly 1 elf fited the poor and caused great consumption, the Government would have felt great pleasure could they have proposed a reflection of those duties. The right hon. gentleman, after referring to the rates of duty previous to the war and now, read a return that had been furnished relative to the consumption of tea and sugar by the different classes of society. In England the consumption of the upper classes in comparison with the woe king classes was was as 56 per cent. to 44 per cent. In Scotland it was as 54 per cent, to 46 per cent , but in Ireland it was re versed, the upper classes giving but 35 per cent., and the poor and working classes 64 per .cent. The con sumption of sugar in England was with reference to the classes as 60 to 40 per cent., in Scotland as 62 to 38 per cent , and in Ireland the reverse, as in tea—viz , of 34 to 66 per cent. The average price of sugar for the last six years, from 1851 to 1856, was 11. ss. lid. per cwt., and the average duty 14a. per cwt., which, in compari son with the price, could not be considered excessive. The smallest amount of sugar consumed. in reference to the population, since 1816, was in 1840. In 1839 the consumption of sugar was 3.830,000 cwt., and in 1840 it was 3,594,000 cwts. In 1839 the average duty was 1/. 4s. per cwt., and in 1840 it was 1/. ss. 20. In 1839 the average price of sugar in bond was 1/. 9s. 2d., and in 1840 it was 21. 9s. 10. In 1855 the consumption was 7,547,000 cwts., and in 1856 it was 7,071,000 eats. In 1855 the average duty was 13s. 53., and in 1856 it was 14s. 6d. In 1855 the average price in bond was 1/. 6e. 90., and in 1856 it was 11. 9s. 7s. In 1855 the average price, including the duty, was 21. Os. 2,1. per per cat., and in 1856 was 2/. 4e ld. With reference to the disturbances in India he did not expect to be called on for anything that would require his asking Parlia ment for additional duties, from the pecuniary position of the East India Company not requiring at present assistance from the Government. He considered the present taxes would meet all the requirements of the Government till April next ; but should the contrary be the case he would frankly inform Par liament of it, and ask for•aysistance. Mr. GLADSTONE expressed his satisfaction at the proposed continuance of these duties. After making some generai remaks on the statement of the Chancellor of the Exchequer, he concluded by stating that he should support the resolution. After a discussion, in which Mr. Clay, Sir H. Wit• loughby, and Mr. Hadfield took part, Mr. DISRAELI expressed his satisfaction that the helm had not been calied upon to enter into a full con sideration of 'lndian• affairs, but hoped soon the house would fully be informed on the sulket. He supported the present motion, but reserved to himself at the proper lime to review the financial policy of the Government. After some remarks from the CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER, the resolutions were agreed to, and the house resumed. PROBATES AND LETTERS OF ADMINISTRA TION BILL. After a short discussion, this bill was read a third time and passed. JOINT STOCK COMPANIES BILL. This bill, with vcrbal amendments, passed through committee. CUSTOMS ACTS BILL. This bill also passed tbrough committee. PROBATES AND LETTERS OF ADMINISTRA- TION (IRELAND) BILL. This bill was committed pro forma for the purpose of considering admendments.• The bill will he recommitted to-morrow (Thursday). The other order were then disposed of, and the house adjourned at five o'clock. POLICE INTELLIGENCE.— (Th.i. Day. SOUTHWARK.
