Valuable as are thePur -Bnits of commerce, in advancing the progress of we alth and civilisation, it must not be forgotten, that luxury and ease render a people effeminate, and thereby weaken that which a nation like ours ulust ever depend upon for its security and defence. NOTES OF THE DAY. The Conferences at Zurich have at length come to an! 'end. Th e t reaty o f peace, we are assure d, has n ow been kgled,—signed, however, as we have for some time ex ileeted would be the case, only by the representatives of Prance and Austria; certainly a very significant fact. trance and Austria; certainly a very significant fact. ,i,ren Sardinia is not a contracting party. Justly is as ked, theref ore ; " How comes it that the ally of ~ '" a ce, and th e o p en en emy of Austria, who declared r and was in her turn proclaimed a public enemy 1' the Austrian authorities, is not bound by the in stl4o,3llent which is the title of her newly-acquired V 7, 'ens, and which virtually terminates the war ?" un it is not difficult to know how this comes to 4 - B.Bs. Sardi n i a was, no d ou b t, earnes t i n h er endeavcairs ° estab lish Italian independence. But. the treaty of Peac e th a t h as been signed most likely shelves that question ; and if it does, this were quite enough to 3 a8 7. 11 why Sardinia is not to be bound by the treaty the Zned. It is a patching up of the affair between Empero rs themselves, for their own personal .e°:cnience' and their own particular advantage. i i : 4ll3 sia has now got its once formidable : foe, Schamyl, Wa ife keeping at St. Petersburg. His is a name that it:ll lately a terror throughout the Russian Empire ; and is le n ot surp r i s i ng, therefore, to find that his presence th r e e capital h as exc it e d the greatest curiosityamong p chiefwh°le population. What is to be done with this remains to be seen. Surely the Autocrat fo r a moment think of sending him to Siberia— liberre,-,"eed, of subj ec ti n g him to any deprivation of his "'Y ,-- --at least beyond what may be necessary to „, his return to his old hostile habits. It is an eurtn n i t __ for the exercise of generosity, which, we hi: e _ ll 7,, f ain hope, the Emperor will not fail to avail la ' e " of. But whatever may be his mind and will to that d r espect, it would be an outrage upon humanity nad e ° 4 , ll Ything cruel ,t o such a man, more especially tae circ umstances o f hi s capture. unev l ' e e Cabinet Councils within four days, at such an reg„ den politi ca l season as th e presen t, canno t but be 11r4ect as indication s of important business at head ta-svrters.

FRANCE. The report is current in Paris, that the Archbishop of Bordeaux is about to visit Rome, at the desire of the Emperor, to impress upon the Pope the necessity of reform. ITALY. A revolutionary committee at Ferrara gives the Aus trians great annoyance, as it was formed for the express purpose of giving assistance to those young Venetians who wish to join the national army. The Vienna correspondent of the Times says, the re port that Naples has promised to give military assistance to Rome obtains no credit, as it is known that his Nea politan Majesty fears an invasion of his own territories, and has no troops to spare. THE LATE CONSPIRACY E. AT CONSTAN TINOPL The result of the examination into the con spiracy at Constantinople is not yet known, although the proceedings were at an end en the 3rd instant. The Pasha of Monastir, one of the conspirators, has been taken to the Turkish capital in a steamer belonging to the Austrian Lloyd. (Rafter Pasha, who was not drowned in the Bosphorus, is said to have reached Syria on his way to Corfu. The Levant Herald and the Pr esse d' Orte.zt, having received three warnings, have been suspended. The news from Candia is more satisfactory. Ethem Pasha is gone to Odessa to meet the Emperor Alexander. FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE • t INTOLERANCE, LX SPAIN-ANOTHER: MORTARA dASE. The Morning saki, publitheS a correspondhnce respecting the claims, made: by a Spanish Raman Catholic priest for the body of a child of Eaglish, Protestant parents,. in consequence of its having been baptised by the surgeon who assisted* its birth, and who is. a. Roman Catholic. - We under stand that, although the civil authorities. have endeavoured to arrange the'matter quietly,. so as to avoid public scandal, the ecclesiastical autho rities are determined to prosecute it with. the utmost energy, deeming it a matter of overwhelm ing importance to decide whether a Six. month's child is Protestant or Roman Catholic ! Instruc tions had been received by the parish priest in Denia from the Archbishop of Valencia,. to, c..‘ pro secute the case with great zeal, but with. great prudence." On the other hand, the parents are. determined to resist to the utmost a demand at once so unfeeling and prepostcrons.. The first application of the priest to the mayor. (Alcalde) of Denia was for protection in enabling him foreibl3 to enter the Protestant cemetery, to disinter the body of the child; but the . mayor„seeing the deli cacy of the case, and unwilling toincur the respon sibility of such proceeding, applied to the civil gov ernor of the province for instruction how to act. Meanwhile the priest made a gentler claim by letter to the father of the child, and. hence the correspondence. The case has already been brought under the notice of our Government, and instructions have been► given to protect the father of the child from such an intolerable and pre posterous annoyance. The British Consul at Alicante having brought Mr. Graham's complaint before Mr. Buchanan, the British Minister at Madrid, Mr. Buchanan has addressed to the Spanish Minister for Foreign Affairs a formal remonstrance against the pro ceedings of the ecclesiastical authorities in this matter. Lord John Russell has approved the steps taken by Mr. Buchanan for the protection of Mr. Graham, and has instructed him to use every endeavour to secure that gentleman from molestation on the part of the ecclesiastical authorities. RECEPTION BY THE EMPEROR NAPOLEON OF THE ITALIAN DEPUTATIONS. The Nord of yesterday contains the following, letter from Paris : On Sunday the Emperor received the deputations from 'Parma and Tuscany at St. Cloud. The Parmese envoys were the first to be admitted The audience commenced at ten o'clocii, and lasted a quarter 'of an hour only. But if the interview was short,• it was in the highest degree satisfactory to the Deputies of Parma; whose countenances on leaving the palace shoWedtheir contentment. The Tuscan's remained in con ference for more than an hour and a half.' The deputies cannot of coarse report that this interview will remove every difficulty ; but they will at least be able to say that the Emperor remains faithful to himself and per severing in his rile of protector of the Italian cause ; and they have the assurance that the principle upon which the whole question hangs, namely, that of non intervention by arms; will' receive no injury from any quarter whatsoever. At two o'clock General Dabormida (Sardinian Minister) was received by the Emperor, and the consultation lasted for a long time." NORTHERN DART TIMES. RUSSIA AND AUSTRIA It is probable that the relations between Russia and Austria are on the point of becoming more friendly, as it was M. de Balabine who gave this Government to understand that a visit from a member of the Imperial family would be accept able to his Sovereign. As has already been ,stated, the Archduke Albrecht is to go to Warsaw, and it is understood that an unusually large suite will accompany him. Very many persons in Vienna believe that an alliance, for defensive pur poses, will be concluded between Russia, Prussia, and Austria; but nothing has occurred which could induce me to share that opinion. The two ()Teat German Powers have for the moment sus pended their bickerings, but we may be sure that .their animosity is as great as it was. THE EUROPEAN CONGRESS. The Times' correspondent (second edition), writing from Vienna, on the 15th, says :—" At last it has been settled that a Congress shall be held, but the place of meeting has not yet been deter mined. It is, however, said that the diplomatists will have to chose between Brussels and Berlin. It is generally believed that some private understanding has recently been established be tween France and Austria; in respect to the restoration of the Dukes, but the impression on my mind is, that things stand exactly where they stood a month or six weeks ago. The report that Naples has promised to give military assistance to Rome obtains no credit here, as it is known that his Neapolitan Majesty fears an invasion of his own territories, and has no troops to spare. The Este or Modenese brigade is still at Verona, where it amuses itself by bidding defiance to the revolutionary government. A revolutionary committee at Ferrara, which has taken the name of Comitato Veneto, gives the Austrians great annoyance, as it was formed for the express purpose of giving assistance to those young Venetians who wish to join the National army. As drum-head law has been proclaimed in the districts of Vicenza, Belluno, and Rovigo, the freebooters, who in general are deserters from Austro- Italian regiments, have emigrated to Padua, Verona, and Udine. Austria clings to Venice as a fond mother does to a dear, though naughty, child ; but the loss of the province would pro bably be a gain. The Venetians are now as hos tile to Austria as ever the Lombards were, and they give the Government even more trouble, as they are in direct and continual communication with the revolutionists in the adjoining Italian provinces. The commerce of Venice is completely stagnant, as the Vienna and Trieste bankers refuse to give any credit to people who make no secret of their desire to place themselves under the Sardinian sceptre. The loss of Lombardy is already severely felt, as the inhabitants of that kingdom were in the habit of buying their wooUg and cotton goods here, and of paying for them in raw and spun silk." THE DISPUTE BETWEEN SPAIN AND MOROCCO. The Paris Constitutionnel has an article on the dispute between Spain and. Morocco. It looks at it from a commercial point of view, and argues that although the trade of France with the Moorish ports is infinitely inferior to that of England, war is not likely to improve the situation, and it therefore desires to see peace preserved. It says : " The principal ports of Morocco are Rabat and Selee, indeed, forming only one, and Mogador. According to official documents just published by the Ministry of Commerce, the maritime operations of the two former places during the years 1857 and 1858 presented a total of 4,159,000 f. for the former, and of 1,785,000 f. for the latter. The total of 4,159,000 f. is divided into 2,295,000 f. for imports, and 1,186,000 f. for exports; and that of 1,785,000 f. into 1,197,000 f. for exports, and 588,000 f. for imports. There is, therefore, a considerable difference between the commercial movement of 1857 and 1858, to the dis advantage of the latter year. The principal cause of this difference was the prohibition to export native grown wool, imposed last year. In the imports at Rabat and Sake durinlBsB, Great Britain takes the lead, but of 1,197,000 f. the English trade, which is carried on through Gibraltar, stands for 1,179,000 f., leaving to France, that is trasay; to Marseilles, 0n1yr9t0001.,,t6 Portugal - 4 0010 f., :and: VOW. to the Morocco, parts of Tangier and - cts for the exports ? they- are exclusivelyvdiaided between, Gibraltar and Marseilins.-. However, this last port only Stands -far .135 ; 000f., while the British trade araeunts to 453,000 f. The• same documents. give the roturns for the post of Nogador only down to 1 185;7.. The total amount; of the foreign tratle. was 117,565040 f., of which 8,40 4000 f. were for: imports,: 9067,000 f. for exports, This shows a, decided rovement on 185 G, But at Mogador, as well as at Rabat and Salee, we again find England at the head, of the list of coraraencial nations. Lcanka, Glas gow,. Liverpool, and Gibraltar had the largest share in both imports ands exports, amounting to above 6,000,000 f. either way. ; while France, by Marseilles, only stands for 1,615,000 C. in imports, and 271429;000f. in 11 exports.. Next comes. Spain, barely attaining the sum of 300,000 f., and then. itgiugal through: Lisbon, and Belgium through AntweriN together amounting to only I a few thousand francs,. The principal articles imported at Mogador, are fib:AC which European vessels import at Rabat and Salee. IfOr instance, in 1857 Great Britain imported to the, -Jaime of nearly 3,0000000 f. in cotton fabrics, and 131,e00f.. is woollens. France only attained B,ooof. for the former;. and 24,000 f. 't r,.the latter. The • difference is the. same in other articles, such as sugar, iron, hardware ands specie." The artiek then refers more. particularly to the trade of France with i.lorocco, and after showing that, although not great at present, it is. capable of being extended, proceeds thus : " This situation, precarious as. ft may be, shows that the hostilities of Spain and Franc* with Moroeuo must have a. prejudicial effect on our manufactures /tad maritime trade, but it is evidhnt that the consequences of the war- and of the internal revolt will be more espe cially felt in'England. \re. have, therefore, no doubt whatever that the English mercantile class has. fore stalled these consequences, and that protection of their interests has not been neglected by British diplomacy at Madrid. We, nevertheless, share the desire ex pressed by our allies to see the new Government of Morocco satisfy the jast susceptibilities of Spain, and prevent hostilities." LOCAL INTELLIGENCE. ON DlT.—That Mr. Joseph Livingstone, formerly member for'Castle-street Ward, is about to be brought forward as a candidate for the representation of one of the Toxteth wards. The Hon. and Rev.

THE CANADIAN MAIL—The screw steamer Nova Scotian will sail for Quebec and Montreal this forenoon, carrying out mails and passengers. The box at the Post-office will close at 10 15 a.m., but the Receiving House on the Landing-stage will be open to 11 a.m., on the payment of a late fee of 6d. HOLYHEAD.—The uncomfortable looking fishing village of Holyhead is full to repletion, and woe betide the unlucky voyageur who comes down by the night train in the expectation of getting a bed. Paltry little dens and roadside alehouses command a price for dingy accommodation which would make our London houses stare. SUDDEN DEATH OF MR. ALDERMAN BEAUMONT, OF BRADFORD.—Mr. Thonias Beaumont, surgeon, and one of the aldermen of Bradford, died suddenly on Sunday evening, of disease of the heart. The deceased gentle man, who was sixty-four years of age, was brother to the late Rev. Dr. Beaumont, whose death in 1855, in the pulpit, at Hull, was equally sudden. STOCK OF BONDED GOODS IN LIVERPOOL. - The Collector of Customs at Liverpool, Mr. S. P.

A RASH LuAP.—A woman named Mary Peeling, who resides at 3, Cheapside, jumped out of a window in a warehouse in Temple-street, yesterday. It ap peared that the woman had been locked up in the ware house by some mistake, and as she could not get out by the door, she took the risk of leaping out of the window. The consequence was, that she received several con tusions of the body, and now remains at the Northern Hospital under surgical treatment. COUNTY REVISION.-The revision of the list of voters in the Liverpool district of South Lancashire was re sumed yesterday in the Sessions-house, Chapel-street, before W.. B.

STEALING A WATCH.—At the County Magistrates' Court, yesterday, Thomas Usher and Edward Sheridan were charged with having stolen a watch from a house in Bootle. The watch was seen safe in the kitchen at three'o'clock, and was missed half-an-hour after. During that, time the prisoners had been in the kitchen, and of course had an opportunity of taking it. One of them subsequently offered it in pawn at the shop of Mr. Hamper's, but was taken into custody.—The prisoners were sent for trial.

Silverlock in the chair. The fol lowing question was debated :—" Is the present Rifle Corps agitation fo be deprecated ?" Mr. Carter leading on the affirmative, and Mr. Orchard on the negative side. After a most animated debate, the negative was carried by a large majority. Several new members were enrolled; and the meeting, which was very nume rously attended, wiis closed by singing the Doxology. SAILORS' HOME.—The fourth season of winter con certs at this institution was successfully inaugurated last night, by a grand miscellaneous concert. There was a very large attendance of sailors and their friends, and it could not but be encouraging to the committee to find so hearty a response to their efforts for providing an entertainment whi c h, w hil e re fi n i ng th e t as t e , s h ou ld be sufficiently attractive to lure seamen from the dens of iniquity which abound in this town. The concert was eminently successful ; and, though the performers were all amateurs, many of them were themselves far above the ordinary merit of such performers. We understand that it is the intention of the committee to continue these concerts monthly ; and we sincerely hope their philanthropic efforts will meet with a hearty response. HOPE HALL LECTURES.—The second lecture of the present course was delivered in this hall last night, by the Rev. Robert Maguire, M.A., on the " Historical, Scientific, Moral, and Spiritual Lessons derived from the 'Construction of a Watch." The lecture was listened to with the greatest attention by the numerous and respec table audience who were present ; and, from the great amount of historical information it contained, as well as the moral sentiments it conveyed, could not but be in structing, and amply justify the favourable report which the lecturer has earned for himself. The proceedings terminated with a well deserved enthusiastic vote of thanks to the lecturer. The next lecture of the course is to be delivered by the Rev. Panton Hood. Subject : " A Night of Hiographic Romance ;" and, from the popularity of this gentleman, we anticipate a numerous attendance.

MANCHESTER.—At the Man chester sessions, on Monday, Mary Ann M‘liinsey, a dressmaker, and John Sparks, brushmaker, were charged with stealing ; and Brimi M'Guinness, hawker, and Walmsley, mechanic, with receiving a pocket book, containing £4Ol las., the property of Ms. William Griffiths, plumber, Thomas-street, Manchester. It appeared that on the afternoon of the ?3id Septem ber, Mr. Griffiths obtained £4Ol 13s. from Mr. Cun lie, attorney, the money consisting, of a cheque h3r £226, Bank of England notes foe £lOO, £5O, and £2O, and gold and silver. Mr. Griffiths placed • the money in a pocket-book, which he put into the breast-pocket of Itis coat, and returned to his place of business in Thomas-street. Ile remained there till about nine o'clock, when he went out to go to his home in Elizabeth-street, Cheetham ; but as lie was going down Bradshaw-street, he met the woman, Margaret M'Kinsey, who spoke to Urn. As a means of getting rid of her, he treated her to, some spirits, at the Mountain Dew vaults, near Charter-street, but when leaving she still followed him across Ducie Bridge; and along the Chectham Hill Road, to Carnarvon-street, where Mr. Griffiths requested her to leaVe him, stating that he lived near there. He went down Carnarvon-street, and turned into a side street, but the woman still followed, and several times caught hold of his arm. In a few minutes the prisoner Sparksnud a man (who has since turned approver), named Robt. M'Kinsey, came up, and Sparks said, "What are you doing with that young woman ?," The woman went away immediately, and the two men followed. Mr. Griffiths then found that his pocket ,book and money were missing, and gave information to a policeman, whom he soon afterwards met. Robert M'Kinsey was afterwards apprehended at his mother's house, in Liver pool,, where the woman, Margaret M'Kinsey, was living with him, and he made a confession to the police, from which it appeared that at the time of the robbery he and . the woman M'Kinsey were living in a house in Charter street, Manchester, and that Sparks lived in the cellar of' the same house. On the evening when the robbery was committed, Robert M'Kinsey and Sparks saw the woman M'Kinsey and Mr. Griffiths going into +he Moun tain Dew vaults, and they afterwards followed them to Carnarvon-street. When the woman ran away from Mr. Griffiths, the men followed her, and went to their house in Charter-street. The woman there produced a . £2O and a £5O note ; and the cheque for £226 was de stroyed with the pocket book, the men not being able to understand it. Robert M'Kiusey and Sparks took the £2O note to M'Guinness, an innkeeper, and asked if he could change it. M•Guinness gave thorn £l6 for it. They then went to Walmsley, who keeps a beer house in the same vicinity, and asked him if he could " do" a £5O note ; and Walmsley gave them £35 for it. They returned to the cellar in Charter street, where the woman M'Kinsey pulled from her boSom a £l4O note. Robert M'Kinsey and Spark took this also to M'Guinness, who promised to give £6O for it ; but said lie should be obliged to go to London to change it. The £6O was afterwards paid to them ; and a division of the money took place. On the same day, Robert M'Kinsey went to his mother's, at Liverpool, where Margaret M'Kinsey afterwards also went. They were both apprehended there, and the other prisoners were apprehended in Manchester, in consequence of the statement which Robeit M'Kinsey then made.—The jury acquitted Walmsley, but found the other prisoners guilty. ,Margaret M'Kinsey was sentenced to four years' penal servitude, Sparkes to four. years' penal servitude, 'and M‘Guinness to seven years' penal servi tude. The trial lasted all day. THE HISTORIC SOCIETY or LANCASHIRE AND CHESHIRE. Last night, the annual general meeting of this society was held in the Grand Jury Room, St. George's-hall, — to receive the report of the retiring council, to receive the treasurer's statement of accounts, and to elect officers and sectional members of the council for the ensuing session. WM. BROWN, Esq., one of the vice-presidents, was called to the chair. Mr. J. 11. GENN, the acting secretary, read the report, as follows : It is the pleasing duty of the council to report, at the close of theif year of office, that the 11th session of the so3iety's labours has been marked by satisfactory progress, both in the number and character of the papers submitted to the members. These are given more or less in detail in the volume of Trans actions which is now nearly ready for delivery, and they con fidently anticipate that, like its predecessors, it will meet with the approval of the members. During the past year no event has occurred in relation to the society requiring special motice ; the usual duties have all been performed, and the accustomed intercourse with other societies maintained. The library has also been open to members from five to seven o'clock on the evenings of meeting. The treasurer's balance-sheet shows that, in addition to a balance of £lO ss. 2d. remaining over from the previous year, the sum of £373 12s. led. had been received, and £369 Is. sd. paid. The working expenses have remained much as usual, and there is a balance in hand of £14165. 7d. During the past year the council acted on the recommenda tion of their predecessors in submitting to the society the names of certain defaulters, who after due notice were erased from the roll of the society in accordance with Law XII. They recommend that the accumulation of arrears be prevented as much as possible, and, with that object, that Law XII be strictly enforced. The apparent and actual revenue will then be identical, and all arrangements for the benefit of the society can be made with much greater definiteness. It has been thought desirable to diminish the price of the early volumes of the proceedings and transactions until the stock is reduced to a limited number of copies, and the amended scale of prices will accompany the volume about to be issued. . _ _ The society's excursion this year was made to the town of Bolton, and to the waterworks of t'Ae corporation of Liverpool at Rivington Pike. A brief account of it will be found in the appendix to volume 11. The ballotting list required by the laws have been prepared and forwarded. It will be noticed that the council have sug gested some slight changes in the honorary officers. The gen tlemen nominated to take the places o tho3c who retire, as well as those named for the customary vacancies in the sec tions, are willing to serve if elected, and are all known as valuable members of the society. Mr. RYDER moved a vote of thanks to the honorary officers for the past year, which was duly seconded and carried. On the motion of Mr. Samuel Hill, seconded by the Rev. R. R. Moore, a very complimentary vote of thanks was also passed to Mr. Joseph Mayer, for his general services to the society, but more especially for his gift of eight illustrations to the new volume of the Transactions, which, it is aunotmeed, will be ready within aJew days. The society then proceeded to the election by ballot of officers for the ensuing year. The following gentle men were elected : _ _ . President : I —Major-General the Hon. Sir Edward Cust, K.C.11., D.C.L., F.R.S. Vice-Presidents Brown, Esq., Rev. J. S. Howson, M.A., Joseph Mayer, F.S.A., &c. Librarian :—David Buxton, F.R. S. L. Curato r:—A. Craig Gibson, Esq. Treasurer :—Thomas Avison, F.S.A. Secretary :—Rev. A. Hume, D.C.L., &c. The various sectional officers were next ballotted for, with the following result. The council for the next session will be constituted in the various departments, as follows : .Archceotogy.--J. A. Forrest, Esq. ; John G. Jacob, Esq.; Peter It. M'Quic, Esq. ; John Robson, M.D. ; Thomas Dawson, Esq.; Henry Gerard, Esq. Literature.—H. A. Bright, B.A. • William Burke, Esq. ; C. Corey, Esq. ; Rev. A. Ramsay, M.A. ; Rev. T. Moore, M.A. ; F. W.

Dr. HUME, the formal business being over, announced that the forthcoming volume was almost ready. They had also for the ensuing session a very reasonable offer of papers. A vote of thanks to Mr. Win. Brown, as president of the evening, was passed by acclamation ; and The Rev. Dr. HUME then announced that they s hould probably have at their next meeting a papFr from the President of the society, on those curious animals called chimeras, Assyrian bulls, cherubim and seraphim, &C. The meeting then adjourned, 5 CORRESPONDENCE. [lre do not hold oursares responstlde for the opinions of our correspondents.] RAILWAY BENEVOLENT INSTITUTION.

His Royal Highness the Prince of Wales arrived at Ox ford at four o'clock on Monday afternoon, by the Great Western Railway, from London. He was met at the rail way station by the Dean of Christ Church (Dr. Liddell), Under whose superintendence he will be during his sojourn there, and by a large crowd of members of the University and citizens, who cheered him loudly on alighting from the carriage.

THE CHAMPIONSHIP OF THE THAMES.-The Stakes in this match, £4OO, were, says the Dublin County Advertiser, duly handed over last week to Robert Cham bers, champion of the Thames, together with £5 sent to him by the liberality of Lord Kilmorey, for which Chambers requests publicly to thank his lordship ; and on Friday last, attended by his faithful friend and trainer, the veteran Henry Clasper, he returned to New castle, his blushing honours thick upon him, where he will, no doubt, be as warmly received by his admiring countrymen as his great victory deserves.
