And 'it can' only, we fear, be regarded as another most unhappy instance of the readiness with which, now-a-days, English men of a certain school of 'politics can " for party give up what was meant for mankind," when we see such politicians as Lord PALMERSTON carried back into power by a combined party influence, who is notorious all over the Continent as one whose invariable policy has been intervention, and who has thereby over and over again endangered,. by his diplomacy, the maintenance of the peace of Europe. No wonder that Mr. COBDEN, who has always been opposed to such diplomacy, should refuse to sit in a Cabinet of which such a man is the presiding genius. For, as one of our Liberal contemporaries has well observed, "of Mr.. COBDEN we know this, that his principles are what they have ever been, and we have now a striking and additional proof of his independence and disinter- estedness. Of Lord PALMERSTON we know, that he has professed no conversion, and that thete is no evidence that his principles have undergohe any change."

This is all the news, however, which has reached us from the Austrian •camp. This reticence is the more remark able, inasmuch as we were given to undeistand that when the colps d'armee were forced back from the heights of Solferino, : they retired in excellent order, considering their critical position.

The Invalide Russe discusses the possible' completion of the war. "Prussia," it says, ." has called out an, army -of 300,000 men, which will be reinforced by a Federal Contingency of 150,000 men, and it is with such an enormous display of force that she proposes to offer mediation to France, to hasten the conclusion of a peace. But such an armed mediation constitutes a kind of ultimatum. Is not France entitled to reply that the conditions of peace ought to be pro posed by all the great powers conjointly, and not by Prussia alone, and that such an -armed mediation made by a single power is equivalent to a declaration The, Invalide Russe adds, " But when to maintain the Aiistrain possessions in Italy, a German army of half a million men shall be put in motion to attack France, can .the - Palmerston-Russell Cabinet remain indifferent spectators of a new e9nflagaration ?"

Steains le resignation of Mr. Bally, the corporate auditor, was accented. Mr. Jeffery raised a question as to the propriety of Mr. Stewart, Chairman of the Finance Committee, acting as arbitrator on behalf of the Mersey Dock Board, in reference to the valuation of land on the Birkenhead side, - in which the Corporation have an interest. Mr. Stewart not being present, nothing .definite came of the ie Health Committee's proceedings Mr. Earle proposed that the registration of common lodging-houses be transferred to the police. - The question was postponed for a month's consideration.

One day. the Anstrians retire across the Mincio as if they meant to rely upon the famous quadrilateral—the next day they advance in 'full force to fight:a - great pitched battle. The youthful rashness, and head strong pride of FRANCIS JOSEPH are well known the prudence and sagacity of the veteran HESS are not less notorious. Two such men conducting a campaign would naturally produce the results which have been witnessed. It is a significant fact that as soon as the battle of Solferino was won, the Austrian Emperor resolved to return to Vienna ; and it is to be hoped that his generals will now be left unfettered to conduct the campaign as they think best,"—hoped, at any' rate, for the interests of Itumanity, since it is obviqus that the conflict has been made all the more sanguinary by the bad generalship of the Austrians that has hitherto characterised almost all their operations • And now, therefore, one cannot but await with anxiety the next act of the bloody drama. General HESS is in full command of the Austrian army. allied invaders have pursued him to Verona under the walls of that ancient city will probably be . fought an engagement that may be decisive of the campaign. :Russia and England are both, it evident, urging a te rm i na ti on o f - .the conflict We know' what is doing at home latest arrivals from St. Petersburg such a remonstrance as the following Ind our bring us kustria, still She notwithstanding the forces of which six disposes,_ ought to think seriously of p eace _ _ _ _ invaded Piedmont, and hoped. to crush her before the arrival of the French; but she has not succeeded. and has had to fall back to the Mincio. She hoped to have allies, and the allies have made default. • She is, however, still endeavouring to obtain the support of Gertnany'Und Pirussia. As to us, for the sake of hunianity, we sincerely desire that she may not succeed, because 'in acquiring powerful allies she might at the' same time array against her still more powerful enemies. In that case, Europe would be inundated with blood, and for nothing else than to preserve Lombardy to Austria, though that province can never more belong to her morally.", _ _ 'For the sake of humanity and of peace, - one would fain concur in such a conclusion as this. But we doubt its reasonableness notwithstanding, —we almost doubt, indeed, its policy. The moral and political effect of Lotis NAPOLEON'S success in so outrageous an invasion as, in the face.of treaties he had to set at nought, his march into Italy un doubtedly was, can never be one conducive to the permanent peace of Europe. --0 , --- not only see NON-INTERVENTION. THAT the policy of Non-intervention is a good one .for any country, cannot be' disputed, as a general principle ; but that at this moment, when war is raging on a matter in which England feels a deep concern, and when interests are at stake in its issues which may hereafter more or less affect the welfare of every European State, the observance of such a policy will . be a very diff eren t thi ng on t h e part of the Government of this country, as it is now consti tuted. Look at the extent to which the defensive preparations against the spread of that war are now expanding on every side. See how Germany is augmenting her means . of defence, in evident antici pation of being called upon to assume an attitude of resistance. Only in last Saturday's sitting of the Diet, at Frankfort, for instance, the proposal of Prussia to place a corps of observation on the Upper Rhine was almost unanimously agreed to ; and there can be no doubt that this movement was in prospect of ultimate intervention on the frontiers of Italy. Every advance, indeed, whick the Allied Armies make towards those frontiers, on the German side, is : an additional provocative to intervention on the part of Germany. Then there is Belgium beginning to act on the defensive also, —and not, perhaps, without reason. " Public attention," says a letter from Paris, "is drawrr towards Belgium, and the unusual activity displayed at the camp at Beverloo is the subject of the utmost anxiety. The formation of an entrenched camp on a series of strong forti fications at Antwerp will necessitate the meeting of the Chambers immediately.. The . retutn. of 'King Leopold from England is eagerly looked forward to as bearing on the question of peace or war, It appears that in case of the probability of hostilities between France and Germany, two camps of observation would likewise be formed in . Luxembourg and Hainault, in order to protect the neutrality of Belgium, whose territory would otherwise be in constant danger of being borrowed as a battle-field . by the adverse combatants." Now here, to go no further, there will arise the greatest danger to England,—for she is a party to the obligation ; to protect Belgium against any hostile interference, either by France or any other Power. There is no doubt, we believe, that King LEOPOLD'S visit to this country had reference to the position of his kingdom at the present critical conjuncture. At such a moment, then, we say, it is of vital importance that a spirit of Non-intervention should pervade the Councils of our country ; and one's deep regret is, that there should be any reason to suspect such May not be the case. Neutrality —apparent neutrality, at least—may be observed ; and yet there may the while be going on a system of diplomatic intervention, the eventual effect of which it would 'be difficult to foresee. Non - intervention, therefore, is essential to continued neutrality. How unfortu nate, then, it is for us all, that in such a crisis as the present, the head of our Government should happen to be one, the greater part of whose political life, which is of no ordinary length, has been one 'syste matic series of interventions in the affairs of forCign States. We would not go quite so far as did tho mover of the following ReSolution at the great Non- interventions_ Meeting in London, a, few days since, and say, "-that since th e 22 n d November, 100, intervention, in violation of the law of nations and of river, opposite Garston. the law of England, has been reduced to a system, MARynEnowc ELECTION.-- Close of the -Poll: and put into daily practice by the Foreign-office, 4,212 ; Lyon, 2,309 ; Dickson, 1,074. under the direction •of Lord PALMERSTON, and that A NEW-BORN child Ivas found on Tuesday, in Talison this country can reverse that practice in future, and street.

The Government which Lord PALMERSTON aided in overthrowing, in order that he alight have another opportunity of giving, effect to his mischievous prin ciples, happily for the interests of the people, had firmly established a principle of neutrality, and the country having pronounced its hearty approval of their Non-intervention policy, the present Premier will find it so much the more difficult to set' it - aside all at once. The strong representation conveyed to him, however, by the great meeting to which we have already referred, on behalf of ;u policy as that of the late Ministry was far from such a foreign being in any wise out of place, or uncalled for, at the present moment ; and let us hope that Lord PALMER STON will at least. take to heart that remonstrance of the Memorial adopted by the meeting, which declares, —" Your memorialists have observed, with pleasure, the declarations made by your lordship and other members of her Majesty's Government, that it is the duty of England to abstain from taking any part in this deplorable conflict. But your memorialists venture respectfully to submit, what the past ex perience of this country abundantly proves, that, in order to preserve such a policy, it is necessary not only to avoid taking part in hostilities by overt and immediate acts of war, but to abstain from political engagements and alliances, as well as from such menacing exhibitions of force as may tend gradually to entangle the nation in a conflict, against sharing in which it has pronounced with such unequivocal emphasis." THE COURT. His Royal Highness the Duke of Oporto took leave of her Majesty the Queen on Tuesday afternoon, and proceeded to Greenhithe. His Royal Highness the Prince Consort, went to Trinity house, Tower-hill, and was sworn in on his re-election as Master of the corporation. The Princess of Hohenlohe Langenburg arrived at Buck ingham Palace on Tuesday morning, from Frogmore, and visited the Queen. Her Serene Highness returned to the residence of her Royal Highness the Duchess of Kent, at Frogmore, in the afternoon. The Prince of Wales, went to the Egyptian Hall, honoured with his presence Mr. Albert Smith's enter ment " China " Prince Leopold and the Princess Louisa took a carriage The Queen, accompanied by the Princesses Alice and Helena, and attended by the Hon. Lucy Kerr, took a drive in an open carriage and four in the afternoon, Colonels F. H. Seymour and Ponsonby attended on horseback. The Prince Consort rode on horseback in the afternoon. Her Majesty and the Prince Consort, accompanied by the King of the Belgians and the Princess Alice, honoured the Royal Italian Opera, Covent-garden, with their presence. The Royal suite consisted of the Countess of Caledon, Hon. Mary Bußeel, Lord Carnoys, Colonel Count de Moerkerke, Colonel F. H. Seymour, Colonel the Hon. A. Hardinge, and Dr. Koepl. The Prince of Wales and the Count of Flanders, attended by Colonel the Hon. It. Bruce, Captain Keppel, and Major Burnell, honoured the performance at the Haymarket Theatre with their presence. COURT ARRANGEMENTS The present arrangements of the court are as follow : THE Morning Post believes it is correct in contradicting its Windsor correspondent, who had said that the Queen would not visit Scotland this year ; but her Majesty, it is thought, will not spend more than three weeks at Balmoral, as a visit to Ireland is talked of. On Thursday the King of the Belgians and the Count de Flandre will leave Buckingham Palace on their return to Brussels. On Friday the Queen and the Prince Consort, with the Princess Alice, will leave town for the Royal Pavilion at Aldershott, where her Majesty will remain until Monday. On Sunday, the Queen will attend Divine service in the North Camp Church. The younger branches of the royal family will proceed on Thursday direct from London to Osborne, where her Majesty will arrive on Monday.

A number of letters from the Poor-Lavl Smith, Board were read by the clerk. One of them referred to the appointment of Mr. Thomas Moore, as bookkeeper, for $ period of six. months. The board in London cannot sanction the appointment. Mr. Moore was, in 1854, the master of the workhouse at Worcester, and the board required him to resign in consequence of the irregularity of his conduct, his warmth of temper, and other faults. Mr Ledger said that it was quite unfair that should be twice punished for one fault. There was nothing serious alleged against him, and at the lapse of five years it was very mean to endeavour to keep the man out of employment. He concluded by moving that the:letter be not answered until the Guardians had' inquired into the ; matter. This was ag ree d t o. M r.
