Freights to India and China are weaker, and the current rates are scarcely obtainable, owing to a considerable falling off in the demand for Tassels. British tonnage is so abundant, par ticularly in London, that the competition for the transport service has again been very great, and several ships have accepted £9 to £lO per head for troops to Calcutta, which is only paid on the number of men landed, and includes all cost of victualling and - fittings. Homeward rates are without alteration, and no inquiry for ships. West India and Brazil rates are lower. Medi terranean and Black Sea freights continue brisk for grain and tallow homewards; outward rates lower. Tonnage to U. S. ports is abundant, and freights are rather easier. RAILS---BRISTOL CHANNEL.

LONDON, TUESDAY EVENING. In the LONDON SJQCK MARKET to-day ConSOls were fiat, at 9% to i for the A.4gust, account. The Funds elOsed at the following prices : Consoli Money /, A cco unt Exchequer Billy par 6 put Bank Stock Three per Centa 93± Account Next ,t The following appeared in our second edition of yesterday : The last price from the Perris Bourse, yesterday evening, shows a decline of more than per cent., in consequence of the distrust awakened by the projected intervention in Syria. Preparations for to-morrow's monthly settlement in consols continue to engage attention. The supply of stock appears to be considerable. The funds closed with rather a Ala appearance at a decline of about 1-16th per cent. In the other markets business was almost at a stand-still, and prices were nominally unal tered. The payment of the dividends commenced, but although the supply of money was thereby increased the discount market experienced little change. In many quarters 4t per cent. was asked for good bills. — Daily News. The English funds continue to be agected by the question of a probable loan. There are many persons, however, who fancy it will be postponed, probably to a less favourable period, while others think it likely that some arrangement will be made with the Bank of England. Consols opened this morning at a fresh decline I-, and showed increased weakness towards the close. Owing to the release of the dividends, the demand for discount wag less heavy than last week, but remains still rather ac.tye. A large amount was re paid to the Bank by the Stock &change.

We have been obliged to support the most wretched, in order to save ourselves from the most for- Midable, of despotism& The. Siltan rules in the North through our -jealousy 'of Russia, and in the South through our jealousy of France. Had we abarrdoned him in 1840, both Druses and Maronites might now be kept in order by an Egyptian ruler who would be really a Vicegerent of France. Had we accepted the offers of the Czar Nicholas to Sir H. Seymour there might not now be a Sultan at all, and the Druses might be kept in order by ourselves. Eng- land has remained true to her policy; whether right or wrong she secured Syria to Abdul Medjid. But no political objects can make us forget the claims of humanity. If the Porte cannot 'repress these outrages the Christian Powers must do it. An intervention there must-be." - By the latest accounts from Sicily, we learn that the march upon Messina has actually commenced. Three columns are advancing upon it from different directions, and Garibaldi is immediately behind. As anticipated, from the arrival of 300 disabled soldiers at Naples from Messina, Colonel Medici has had an encounter with the garrison, and routed a regiment either on the Catania road or the Barcelona approach to that city. Sixty or seventy officers had deserted from the citadel, ivith num bers of rank and file. According to accounts from Trieste, the Atistrian Government is undertaking. gigantic works, in. order to render the famous quadrilateral perfectly impregna ble. At Verona the works are directed by fourteen engineer officers, who have under their orders an entire regiment of engineers. Six gunboats, excelleatly made, are on the lake of Garda, while at Venice measures are being taken for the defence of Venetia. 4 ..'!The Austrians declare," says one of the letters, "that they will be perfectly able to defend the province; and they add that the recent events in Piedmont and Central Italy make it a duty for Austria not to sacrifice her political rights to the ephemeral policy of Sardinian ambition !" The French journals state that one of the largest manufacturers in the neighbourhood of Paris, whose name they do not give, blew bis brains out on Saturday, in the presence of some officers who came to arrest him on a charge arising out of transactions at the Bourse, by which it appears he had recently lost large sums of money. • - By the Bohemian from Quebec, whose news has been telegraphed from Londonderry, we have a curious item under the head of latest from Mexico. It is that " the English had blockaded the port of San Bias and had landed troops, who kept possession of the mouth of the river. They evacuated the town on the 28th. The cause of these proceedings was. believed - to he the im prisonment of the British Consul on a charge of smug gling." Truly, on this statement, a most indignified quarrel. The Royal squadron, conveying the Prince of Wales, set sail for Canada at an early hour yesterday morning. A movement has been originated in the great business establishments of the West-end of London in favour of earlier closing on Saturdays. The proposal is to close at four o'clock in winter, and five o'clock in summer; and -the indirect objects sought are to aid the Volunteer movement, and assist in promoting the better,observance of the Sabbath. The Mayor of Southampton's banquet to Captain Young, the Arctic voyager, will be given on Saturday next. The Arctic steamer Poi, under the command of Captain Yonng, will leave Southampton on her Atlantic telegraphic survey at the beginning of next week. The Leeds Mercury of yesterday says : "We rejoice to announce to our readers that there is every prospect of the withdrawal of that part of the Census Bill requir ing from every householder a statement of the religious profession of 'himself and his'household." Some interest is occasioned in the Gunpowder . Bill at ' present before Parliament. It contains a series of regulations concerning. the • making‘, keeping, and carriage of gunpowder and other explosive compounds, the manufacture, sale, and use of fireworks, and the manufacture and keeping of loaded percussion caps. The 14th clause, which relates to all persons, provides that no dealer, firework-maker, &c., shall keep more than 2001bs. of gunpowder, and no other person more than 501bs. in any house, mill, &c., " within the following limits"—viz., within three miles of London, or one mile of a market town, or half a mile of a parish church, " or in any other part of Great Britain" except in mills. From Canterbury we hear that the Royal Agricultural Show was opened on Monday tunid ul4ch hustle and excitement. The ground, admirably adapted for the purpose, in the large meadow or lain in front of Hale's-place. It is 27 acres in extent, independently of the trial field, which is seven or eight acres large, and lies on the north side of. the show yard. There is an abundant supply of flags and evergreens, and Canterbury is crowded to an extent which it has never known since the days of the early pilgrims. In Dublin the permission to raise a volunteer force jlas - teerl.received with entlansiasm, and the ranks . of a strong corps, to be entitled " The Royal Irish Voltni teers," has beeu already - filled, and in two or three days . the services of. the corps will be . formally offered to her Majesty. The civil service, the banking inte rest, the legal and' other professions, as well as the members of Trinity College, exhibit signs of taking an active part in the movement. Already considerable sums have been collected, very much beyond anything which could have been anticipated, and, as an example worthy of imitation, we can state that one of the largest commercial estab lishments in Dublin has not only permitted the young men in their employment to enrol themselves, but has undertaken to secure that they shonbi have - ample time time for drill, and to defray the entire expanses Of their equipmeht. `.

Mter affecting for half an hour or so the most aristocratic of airs, and altogether behaving like a Russian boyard, with thousands of serfs trembling, at his beck, he disclosed himself to the wondering waiters as one of their former co-operators in the service of the establishment. A few years ago he had been "boots " at the hotel. He had left for California, and came back as the millionaire that he pretends to be, or at least with money enough to pay his bill handsomely.

In the House of Lords last night, Lord Stratford de . Redcliffe asked what steps had been taken by the GO- • vernmenLin reference to the massacre of the Christians in Lebanon, either singly or in concert with other Powers; to which Lord Wodehouse ,replied that the British and French Governments had both directed squadrons to proceed to the spot; and added that her Majesty's Government-4d -Au? gmatunicated: those of Austria and Russia on the subject.

To a further questin he declared. that no pressure had been put by Franceipon Sardinia with the: view. of compelling her to fora an . alliance with Naples.

We are not only not afraid to allow the people to assemble and harangue each other on political subjects; but we look upon. the exey cise of such a privilege as one of the best guaran tees for the safety and stability of the throne and of the several estates of the realm. Believing, as we do, in the irresistibility of progress and the necessity tor occasional amendment in the intri cate machinery of the state ; we also believe that truth is more powerful than error, and sooner or Jitter • must - prevail. Free and fair discussion, therefore, in the end serves - the cause of truth and instice. The suppression . Sr. restricted, use of the platform is the cowardly resource of tyrants who dread the opinion of their peo ple. Such restriction, however, history tells us, has done more -to overthrow than. to uphold the tyrant's - power. We have no objec tions, therefore, to offer against our itadical friends for- doing their utmost to assemble the people and harangue them upon the subject of Lords and Commons. Nor can we seriously object even to such " a mass - meeting" as that which came off outside St. George's-hall on Mon day evening, If the orators ran sonfe risk of their lives, and if the peace of that locality was to any extent endangered, these are matters which we are content to leave in the hands of the gentlemen who volunteered to risk their personal safety, and of the police authorities who granted them permission. We may, and do think-it-a very -grpst pity, that one very worthy citizen should have sustained : a broken limb; but it is to be presumed lie spoke - the truth when he declared after the accident that he had pleasure in falling in what he designated the cause. of the people. Pf course if voluntary martyrdom be his choice, we have o cemplaint, Wd cannot help thinking, however, that " the people" themselves having tints been "the cause" of Mr. IfEYWORTH'S fall, they 'can scarcely be said to have sympa thised with " the eaus " which brotight him to th e meeting. That genfeniati said he appeared in the cause of " the people," and " the people!' answered—(suiting the action to the word)— " Then ld that which moved thee hither remove thee hence," and down went good Mr. HEY WORTH. Then; sgain,.the proprietors 494 tply4s of the tfelgllbov t fhood nay feel aggrieved I?) , the danger of A great mob assembling of an evening near their premises, to hear irritating discussions. But this maybe one of those penalties they have to pay for the freedom. they enjoy. Moreover, we have perfect' Confidence in the discretion of the great body of - the population, and are quite satis fied to leave the rest to Major GREW and his men. The propriety and expediency of holding such " mass meetings," so far as they can serve any cause, is an entirely differerit question. Even this point we are bound to say is for the judgment of those who undertake to promote them. If they think they can thereby serve their cause, why not let them have their own way in so far as may be consistent with peace and order. We may be permitted, however, to ask our readers to weigh well the following facts in connection with Monday's meeting. The report says,—" Mr. HEYWORTH attempted to address the meeting ; but, unable to make himself heard by the fore most of the audience, he turned his back to them, and addressed the reporters." Then again, as to the formal constitution of the meeting,.the report bears that " Mr. WILLIAMS proposed that Mr. JEFFERY should be called upon to preside. The motion was quite unheard by the crowd, but Mr. JEFFERY stepped forward !" Like the first speaker he addressed himself only to tbe reporters. He said, " if : that vast assembly could not now hear his voice, they would .have an opportunity of reading in the morning in the papers what he said !" Whether or not the impracticibility of such a meeting might have been anticipated by Mr.. JEFFERY, we leave to be inferred from his statement, that " Liverpool unfortunately had been but too celebrated for these interruptions, whenever meetings were called for the purpose of enunciating progressive principles." .There's a compliment to the people of I vorpool. Supposing, howe ver, that Mr. JEFFERY had "'made a mistaken calculation as to the probable usefulness of such a meeting, what conclusion are we draw from the fact appearing from the report, that, notwithstanding " the scene of indescribable confusion which ensued, during which several gentlemen upon the lorry (or plat• form), convinced of the impossibility of con• tinning the meeting, advised that the attempt should be abandoned and the speakers retire," Mr. JEFFERY ,still persisted in keeping up the excitement, awl went on to address, not the meeting, but the gentlemen of the Press. We can have no possible objection to Mr. JEFFERY affording good practice to short-hand writers; neither do we grudge him a column for his speeches occasionally, but we do think he might accomplish these harmless objects without insisting upon the reporters helplessly attempting to exercise their functions in the open air, surrounded by some thousands of noisy and disorderly people, to whom his performance was lade better.than a dumb show. Before the age of penny papers there was a greater necessity for the instrumentality of the platform and open-air meetings, when it was desired to reach the minds of the masses. But Monday's " mass meeting" .was most imperfectly, if at all, available for that purpose, through the agency either of the plat form or the Press. In getting up and persisting in such a demonstration, in the face of every remonstrance, there must, of coarse, have been some other object in view. We shall not trouble ourselves or our readers by guessing what that object may have been. Whether it was good or bad, the public will find it out for themselves, and appreciate it accordingly. The ostensible object of the meeting was expressed in two resolutions. The first is expressive of satisfaction that the first of Lord PALMERSTON'S harmless resolutions had been unanimously passed by the House of Commons. In this we all rejoice. * lt is worthy of note, however, that three little words have been omitted in the Radical resolution, which professes to be a repetition of the terms adopted by the Commons. The latter speak of granting aids and supplies 44 to the Crown"—but the Radicals make no mention of the Crown. The Radicals, if they had it all their own way, would make no such grants at all. They are revolu tionists in disguise ; and here, as on other occa sions, they allow the cloven foot to appear. Precious defenders are these of the British Con stitution ! The second resolution is a terrible jumble of nonsense and bad grammar. It asserts that the House of Lords has violated the right of the Commons to limit the duration of the paper tax. The paper tax is not an annual but a permanent tax, It was made so by the Commons with the assent of the Lords. It was no motion of the Lords. They gave their assent at the request of the Commons. In declin ing to assent to a repeal under entirely different circumstances, when it 'is admitted that we cannot affi.ird to throw away-a single farthing of revenue, can it be said that the Lords make any innovation on the Commons' right of limitation ? Certainly and clearly not. .The rest of the resolation is clifficnit tq comprehend, except in so far as it con veys a solatium to the unhappy and disappointed Tory - Peelite -Whig - Radical Mr. GLADSTONE, and denounces the calm and dignified conduct of Lord PALMERSTON . in so adroitly averting the calamity which Messrs. BRIGLIT and GLAD STONE desire -to bring about. The practical part of the business was the pretended appointment of a clepntation of delegates to attend the Constitutional Defence Assoeiation in Loudon. The three gentlemen named for that purpose may .go there, and assume that they represent the people of Liverpool, with as much truth as . " the three tailors of Tooley-street" did the people of. England: It is worthy of note that ,the best speeches at the mass ineetiN, and the only ones .patiently listened 'io, were by working men, one -of whom appeared in his shirt sleeves, - who opposed the object of the meeting and the several resolutions. But, after all, it is difficult to see what the Radicals -would be at. They hive come into the field a day aftex the -fair ; the whole question is finally - settled, and there is no ‘, action " possible in the matter —unless, indeed, it be to hold a sort - of "death- e wake, w a a n s ci tin ce; p e i b ir ra ii te ati a o4 :un.: l llr, r e e s q:l a ie n m d over Mr. GLADSTONE'Sand Mr. BRIGH.T'S defunct for selling the highest interests of the country to the Emperor of the French, to satisfy the short sighted avarice of the Cotton Lords and gratify the distempered ambition of. an unprincipled Chancellor of the Exchequer. .

FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE. FRANCE. (Front our own Correspondent.) PARIS, July 9, 1860. The report of the Committee of Ways and Means, presented to the Corps Legislatif on the first of the month, is published to-day. It is signed by M. Busson on their behalf, and states that the sum required for the service of the year is 1,840,121,858 f., or rather more than seventy three and a-half millions sterling. The fitst part of the document deals with general matters, and includes an exposition of the present "political situation" of the Empire, which is alluded to in terms of much approbation by more than one of this day's journals. The Constitutionnel, which joins in the laudation, de clares that the report in this particular only echoes the unanimous sentiments of the Chamber and of the country at large, and that it manifests beyond dispute the closeness of the ties which bind France to the Emperor and to the fu ture of the Napoleonic dynasty. On the subject of the " political situation" of affairs, so far as France is concerned, the Committee state that they need only say a single word ; it is sufficient to refer to the speech addressed to the Chamber by the Emperor, at the opening of the Session, when his Majesty said, " If all be not yet clear in the political horizon, it is at all events permitted to us to hope for a speedy solution. The moment appears, then, to have arrived, for setting bounds (mettre une ternze) to the prepos sessions which have so long occupied us, and for pursuing earnestly the means of inaugurating boldly in France a new era of peace." This part of the report goes on to say that the Emperor, " not content with having signed the articles of peace, has assured it. He gives every security for its permanence ; of that we have recently had the strongest evidence. He does more : he constitutes peace the foundation of the political and commercial state of affairs." This is certainly a very strong disclaimer of all those views of aggrandisement, which con tinue to be so freely .and confidently attributed to Napoleon 111., and seeing that M. Busson, in giving utterance to these sentiments, is the mouthpiece of the Corps Legislatif, as well as of the Emperor, it would be difficult, so far as words go, to expect any more authoritative denial of the designs so freely imputed to his Majesty, and so generally, one may say, so implicitly, believed in. But—there is always somehow a " but" in all these disclaimers—there are excep tions, and they are thus alluded to :—" If France," says M. Busson, " does not fear war, if she makes it without hesitation where her legitimate influence or her security are concerned, she desires before everything, she wills, peace,". &c. What is the meaning of " legitimate influence ;" by what iaolitical canons is it to be determined ? I mentioned in my letter yesterday, that four large English steamers were last week expected at Genoa. I see it ,stated to-day, in the same journal, that two of these vessels have already sailed from Liverpool for that destination, and that they are conveying gratis to Genoa, to a large number of Italian endures, who, for want of the necessary means, had not been able pre viously to return to their own country. You will, no doubt, have heard of this circumstance, if it be correct, of which I have, however, consider able doubts. The statement seems made rather with a view to connect England as much as pos sible with the giving of aid to Garibaldi. The Ilfaaiteur publishes, to-day, along with a variety of other official documents relative to the decree of Francis 11. reviving the constitution of 1848, the address presented to Baron Brenier by the inhabitants of Naples, expressing their regret at the assault made upon his Excellency by a " set of wretches, who, after having so long oppressed and outraged our country, have sought out of spite, to have recourse to infamous extremities." It is dated that the address is loaded with the signatures of the popular classes in all the four quarters of the city, and that the baron's wound was,more serious than was generally supposed. Harvest, I see, has commenced in the neigh bourhood of Valence, under circumstances of -a highly favourable character. The crops have been found to have suffered scarcely at all from the rains which were as heavy throughout France as with you, and the yield of every description of grain is satisfactory, both as regards quantity and quality. I recur to the subject of the harvest, because it is one that is not only interesting to the world at large, but to the numerous deni zens of this city-'-native and foreign—in particu lar, more especially to the consuming portion of them, who have had to pay fabulous prices of late for almost every edible article. For my part, I have often wondered how the many English families who are here, many of them partly from motives of economy, have possibly been able to mal(e the two ends meet. You may fancy, there fore, how eagerly all intelligence regarding the state of the markets is scanned, and all tidings of abundance, and of a consequent fall in prices, is re ceived. At the same time subscriptions through out the country, in behalf of the fund for carrying on the war of independence in Italy, have been unusually liberal for the French, and are accom panied, in the giving, by a vast deal more enthu siasm than one who only judged, of what was go i ng o n, by what he saw M the papers, could suppose. It appears that the destination of the tiquadron which the government has recently assembled in the Mediterranean, for, as was sup posed, particular service at Naples, is in reality, Sy r ia; the Emperor being of opinion that he has a right, and is bound, under the existing treaties for the settlement of the Turkish question, to interpose in behalf of the Syrian Christians, who are being butchered wholesale by the officials of the Porte, Who is either powerless to interfere, or clelaya t 9. (Ick ao effectually, The -Corps Legislatif sta n d s fi rm on t h e su bj ect of rags, an d there seems likely to be a conflict b e t we en the two Chambers, similar in its subject matter, if not parallel iu its other features, to that which has just terminated in the resolutions of Lord Palmerston, which seem to meet with ap proval here. This is not the. m),ly instance of late in Which the Lower chamber has shewn refractory symptoms; and the elect of universal suffrage, notwithstanding all the safeguards under which -the polling at the elections takes place, may, after all, be found more troublesome than pliant, It is also understood that the members of the Corps Legislatif are abotit to chi t in\ th,e . right of being reported correctly by the Government reporter, and in the first person ; and that all the journals which choose, should be allowed to send reporters, and to report the proceedings in their own way. But the Senate has the power under the constitution of refusing these demands, and there cannot be much hope of their not doing so. A variety of rumours are current respecting of the silen ce Garibaldi f the OttsF in g in which h i s uwveme nts have' been enveloped of late. If related of any other man, many of them would be at on ce rejected as incredible, b ut t h e case is noth at ing , different with one who sticks and accomplishes almost everything that he -under takes. According t 9 sole accounts he has re solved to attcWalt a coup de main upon Naples wit ont ft ther delay, disregarding any changes in the opinion of the people, which may have Jake'? place since the renewal of the offer to them of the constitution which they had. accepted in 1848. It is also stated that, son t e time ago, he sent a secret agent to Naples t° study the ground, ascertain the diT4tions of the inhabitants, the best plan of attack, an d place for landing, and that this individual has returned to Sicily, but little satisfied with the result of his inves tigations. But, -en the othear band, it is asserted, as r e gar d s the latter point, and with greater vtpAearc}gCe ofprobability, that the prespnt . o .i n quillity and absence of opposi. tion on the Part of the Neapolitan • on l y , an d that the Liberal party in Napl es apparent, Wily wa it for au opportunity, to throw off their indifference and reserve, and break out into acts of open hostility.

The Austrians say, that as the Duke possesses an immense fortune, the greater part of which is invested in the English funds, he ought to pay for these troops himself.
