All our differences with Russia appear to be at an end, except such as we have raised, by what the Czar calls our precipitous entry into the Black Sea to force a fulfilment of a treaty before the time its own conditions had stipulated—viz., six months.—Spain remains in her government pause—nullified in that most singular of national crisis where the people are without power, and the Government without a policy.—The obstinacy of Bomba remains still rewarded with its customary success, encouraging him, according to the latest reports, to reject even the mild suggestions of Austria.—The deeper shadows of the day project themselves over France where, singularly enough, on the annual jubilee of the dynasty and family, all is threatening and infelicitous. The fireworks, though brilliant, are not seen for the novel interposition of their own smoke. The miracle of the day, the balloon, is only a miracle in its complete failure ; and the day, exceptionally cool, is denuded, on the official pre tence of its heat, of that customary review, which, dear at all times to the Parisian populace, would have been especially welcome at present, from the new, and as yet unworn associations of heroism and glory, crewed by the late campaign.

The Times yester day completes the gloom of the picture by an Editorial homily on the Marianne Conspiracy,which it describes as gradually permeating the whole kingdom. The resume it gives, interesting as a history, is too suggestive as a lesson to be omitted • TUESDAY, AUGUST 19, 1856 —" The Marianne, in origin and organisation, is the work of the provincial artisans, labourers, and peasants. The hardy workers in metal and stone throughout the country seem to be its supporters, and even more devoted to the cause than weavers and vinegrowers. Iron founders, tin-workers, quarriers, together with all the race of bargemen and boatmen, are deeply implicated ; the manufacturing towns on the Loire, the Rhone, and the Saone, besides various manufacturing centres in the North, East, and South, are incorporated in the Marianne, or at least closely 'connected with it. Its principles may be well imagined. The Democratic and Social Republic for the end ; for the means, any thing that may be necessary. A system of oaths, of implicit obedience, of secrecy enforced by threats of the deadliest vengeance, is, of course, the mainspring of its machinery. The obstacles to its ends may be removed by any crime, and the neophytes are instructed to forget friends, family, and even their own safety, at the bidding of the secret central authority." At our Assizes, the Crown Court has been illus trating the benefits of the new reformatory system lately adopted by Parliament, while at Nisi Prius Mr. Baron Bramwell has been making suggestions for the amendment of the law of" Conversions," con fessing that he never could understand it, and was accustomed to argue with equal confidence, what ever view his retainer obliged him temporarily to take of it The admission is naive, and helps to teach us that now-a-days lawyers must mount the bench before we acquire a full conception of their powers as advocates. The managing director of the Newcastle-on.-Tyne Commercial Bank has published the history of his transactions with the Sadleirs. The gentlemen who acted with the latter through the different portions of the affair were Messrs. Wilkinson, Gurney & Stevens, the London solicitors ; Mr. Alderman Kennedy ; of London; his relation Mr. Valliant, and a Mr. O'Shea. He attributes the success of the conspiracy partly to his own illness, and partly to the skill with which the fraudulent parties got all the power over the affairs of the bank into their hands. He has commenced law proceedings against the London solicitors for £16,000, and expects on the whole to realise more for the shareholders than was at one time expected• We have again two more assassinations near Dover. Murder no longer visits a locality in single files. As at Melton Mowbray—one tragedy is but the avant-courier of a battalion. " The air is THE DAY'S NEWS.

The Comte de PARIS will come of age on that day, and the address which, it is said, he intends to publish, is looked for with intense anxiety. But why a declaration of the young PRINCE'S attachment towards the land of his birth —an assurance that the son of an old house believes the policy of his ancestors to have been right, and that he will respect the traditions which have been handed down to him by a far-seeing father, and will issue a procl'imation," if people are pleased so to call it, announcing his determination to reconquer France—should produce any uneasiness whatever, we cannot tell. The Comte is very young At eighteen, his Royal Highness will be as old as other boys at twenty.one. Still, it will Majesty's commission. The para g raph we give from the Hampshire Independent illustrates a worse form of this spreading epidemic than even the recent " club scrimmage" at Dublin, or the more celebrated " rowdyism" of Perry and his companions In reference to Lord Maidstone's forgery case Mr. E. It. Clark sends to the journals a copy of a memorandum, signed by the Hon. Mr. 'Villiers, which affirms that the three bills sworn to be forgeries had been accepted by Lord Maidstone and others. Mr. Clark hence concludes that if the bills be indeed forgeries, they must be the forgeries of one of the parties connected with Lord Maid- not be a man who speaks, but an epoch.

The French certainly will not play with him, and he will find it rather difficult to get any foreign country to join in his stale, very stale, game. Precipitating a crisis in France will cer tainly not aid the cause M. THIERS espouses' assuming that the Orleanists and Bourbonists, when fused, have sufficient power to do anything of the kind. The people of the Continent, much less the wayward spirits whose aid would be most required in any great movement, such as the Comte de PARIS, it is presumed, will inaugurate on Sunday next, are not looking back, but forward—far a head, and even a generation or two in advance of our times—and all thinking men now begin to believe that a middle course is the one best suited to the attainment of moral and sound political ends. M. THIERS may hold very different ideas, and, disregarding the public voice of Europe, may not feel disposed to counsel the Comte to keep within moderate bounds , and not show his royal teeth where he would scarcely venture to bite. It is, however, much to be regretted that exiled princes cannot come of age without creating a commotion in the world, and it is still more to be lamented that France should suffer herself to be in the slightest degree disturbed by the childish fulminations of youth. It was intended, it appears, to have issued the coming manifesto at Hamburg, but the French Envoy is said to have intimated to the authorities of that city, that sanctioning such a design would be con sidered by the French Government an act of hos tility, or rather a demonstration against the Emperor NAPOLEON on the part of Hamburg; whereupon it was decided to remove the scene of the State farce to Claremont, where the fusion of the two rival families is to take place, and all future congresses are to be held. M. TRIERS has reached London already, and the loyal cavalcade will doubtless follow in a short time ; but their coming to this country, and publishing the much dreaded proclamation, • can scarcely be considered " a " demonstration against the Emperor," or any party in France. England affords an nsylum to all exiles, and if they commit a wanton breach of hospitality, and do things to compromise the peace of those who shelter them, we are not to be charged with their want of good taste or sound judgment. The great event would have gone off much better in any other part of the world. This country has no sympathy whatever for the Comte de PARIS of his cause, and when his edicto comes before the Free Press of England, we believe that it will go forth to the rest of Europe in a very wretchedly impaired condition• It will be stripped of all its political twaddle and reactionary trumpery. Its real value as a State document will be tested by the standard of English common sense, and the actual feelings, wants, and interests of the age. And by the time the young Prince's missive has undergone the cool and dis passionate criticism of the people in whose coun try it is to make its appearance, we think it will be some considerable length of time before we shall have a second production from the same quarter. The selection, we are glad to find, was not made voluntarily. The good people of Hamburg did not wish to be compromised by any act which might have been performed in their city, and when the Comte de PARIS and M. TRIERS were compelled to leave that town, Clare moot was the only place they could retire to with safety, and, since they have been forced to come amongst us, we must hear what they have to say, and when we have expressed our opinion on the several points brought under discussion, leave Continental countries to form theirs. This is not, perhaps, what M. TIMERS wished, or what the Comte de Pants is likely to be benefited by under any circumstances. His Royal Highness the Duke of Cambridge, attended by Major Clifton, left town on Slturiay morning for Aldershott, to review the several regiments stationed at the camp. His Royal Highness returned to town late the same evening. Lord John Russell and family arrived at Vevay on the 12th inst. His lordship will return to England, to attend to his parliamentary duties, in all probability before the close of February—certainly before Easter.

COMPLIMENTATLY ADDRESS T) C a.TAIN BALLANTINE, OF THE SCdFIV-STEAMER CANADIAN,—At a meeting of the c thin passengers on board the screw-steamer Canadian, Lieutenant-Colonel Gordon, of the 17th regiment, was called to the chair, and Major Griffin was requested to act as secretary. he following resolutions were unanimously passed :—Resolved—That this meeting express their un qualified confidence in the searea - iship of Captain Ballan tine, and his excellent management of the vessel ; also their thanks for the uniform courtesy they have received at his hinds. Resolved—That they have the utmost confidence in the Canadian steamship, and record their opinion that the voyage of twelve days from Queb c to Liverpool, in the face of head winds and seas, is an admirable test of her capabi i'y. They have further to say their comforts have been well provided for, and the table has been well furnished with every delicacy consistent with the circumstances. They would add that they consider the conduct of the officers of the sh p truly meritorious. The chairman and the secretary were requested to communicate the foregoing resolution to Captain B illantine. Signed by William Gordon, Lieutenant C donel of the 17th regiment; Maj ir Griffin, 3lth regiment ; and the rest of the passengers. The following was likewise handed to the captain as the vessel approached the port : We, the third-class passengers by the above named steam ship, wish to express our thanks to the captain, officers, and crew, for their uniform kindness and attention to our comforts w: ile on board, and, at the same time, to express our satisfaction at their care and watchfulness in the navigation of the ship, and hoping they may always meet with success and equally short passages, we remain, your obliged passengers.

In the Liverpool Cotton Market there has been a fair demand to-day, and prices have been toler ably steady. The sales amount to 7,000 bales, of which about 2,500 hare been taken for speculation and export.

The imports of the precious metals last week were extraordinarily heavy, owing to the arrival of a steamer from Australia. Our list includes-181,000 oz. of gold and 10,0001 in sovereigns, by the Royal Charter, from Australia ; 74 200/ by the Niagara ; and 1,034 634 dols by the Persia, both from New York ; about 6,0001 by the Avon, from the Brazils; and 4.1601 by the Sultan, from the Peninsula. The total value of these supplies is not less than 1,025,000/. The arrivals of silver from the Continent are also large, owing to the continued demand on Indian account. Amongst the receipts last week were 85 packages by the Baron Osy, 40 packages by the Hanover, and 78 packages by the Ravensbourne —all three from Antwerp. The Customhouse statement of the exports of the precious metals direct from London during the week ending Thursday last includes 3,384 ounces of gold and 1,000 ounces of silver, representing a total value of little more than 13,0001. The par ticulars are subjoined, viz.:—Gold coin, to Belgium, 2,000 ounces; to Boulogne, 120 ounces. Gold bars, to St. Petersburg, 886 ounces ; to Hamburg, 378 ounces. Silver coin, to Boulogne, 1,000 ozs. Including 4,0001. in specie taken out by the Tyne, for the Brazils, the total shipments of the week, as officially reported, are raised to only about 17,0001. The balance of the gold brought in by the Royal Charter, and the whole of that by the Niagara, has been taken for private transmission to the Continent. The following is the weekly returns ofthe receipts on the principal French Railways for the week ended the 4th inst, and compared with the corres ponding week last year, which exhibits a smaller decline than that of the previous week -1856 Mediterranean .. 693,831 fr. 49'3,787 fr.

The liabili ties are estimated at 67.0001, and the assets 45,0001, showing a deficit of 22,0001. Business has been very dull to-day in the Stock Market, although it had become known early in the morning that tha Bank of England had pur chased a considerable quantity (13,000 ozs ) of the gold received per Royal Charter, and that the remittances to be made to the Continent, were of less consequence than was expected. Consols for account, which during the day had fallen to 951, closed at 951 to 951. The Railway Share Market partook of the general dulness, with a slight tendency to a rise, however, in a few lines.

In Paris it is almost impossible to sell old wheat as the new which arrives is of such excellent quality and in such good condition. It is the general impression that the harvest will exceed that of last year to the extent of several millions of hectolitres, the gross weight being from 10 to 15 per cent. heavier than in ordinary years. Old grain being no :longer saleable is mixed with new. The decline in prices is expected to bo much greater, as soon as the harvest is finished. They have at length begun to give way at Bourdeaux and Toulouse, where a high rate had been very decidedly maintained. At Paris new wheat offered a week ago at 53fr. is now sold with difficulty at 49fr. and 50fr. For delivery at the end of four months 47fr. is freely offered. Flour is scarce, the present price is 95fr., but2for delivery before the end of the year 80fr. = The price of wine is not so well maintained since the impression has prevailed that the reports of the vine disease were exaggerated, but in the South generally the produce will not exceed one fourth of the average. The quality will this year be excellent. Brandy is scarce and dearer. The rise of wages in manufactories is estimated at from 15 to 20 per cent, and raw materials are also advancing. This has given a great check to the demand for manufactured goods. Nevertheless, the export trade of Paris has been excellent during the last two mouths. There has been a large demand for the South American markets and for Russia. The purchases of jewellery for Russia has amounted to between 2,000,000 and 3,000,000 f., and for furniture, silk, bronzes, and articles of luxury, to more than 10,000 000 f. The manufacturers of Lyons have been compelled to raise their prices so high, in consequence of the advance of the raw materials, that production has been paralysed. DEPARTURE OF THE DUCHESS AND PRINCESS MARY OF CAMBRIDGE. DOVER, SIINDAY,—Her Royal Highness the Duchess of Cambridge, and her Royal Highness the Princess Mary of Cambridge, attended by Baron Knesbeck, arrived here last evening from London, shortly after seven o'clock, and were received at the station by Colonel Streatfield, the com mandant; Captain M'llwaine, Admiralty superintendent ; Captain Smithett, of the Royal and Imperial mail ser vice, and a numerous asseuiblaze. The obliging super intendent of the railway had made every preparation for the comfirt and convenience of the dis ingnished passengers. A guard of honour, composed of the 71th Highlanders, under command of Colonel Douglas, received the royal party, with band playing and colours flying, at the e ntrance to the station, and a loyal salute was fired from the heights. Their Royal Highnesses were conducted down the Admiralty pier by Col. Streatfield and Captain waine, and were received on board the Imperial mail steam packet l'lmpe ratrice, (specially ordered for the occasion), by Mr. Churchward, the managing director of the service, and Captain Jenkins, the superintendet. T D he uchess the Princess immediately took p n s session of the handsome l d ittle deck side cabins that had been fitted for their Royal High ness, and then, under the careful convoy of Captain Smithett, the steam-vessel pro ceeded on her swift passage to Calais, whence the royal par t y p roceeded this day to Cologne. THE WEATHER.—StindaY forenoon was partially wet, but the evening was fine and dry. The wind has shifted into a N.B. point, and yes'erday w as fine and dry, with a bracing wind. From the state of the glass and genera l a ppearance of the atmos p here, there is every appearance of a continuance of fine dry harvest weather. AN EXPLANATION. —Some days ego, a report of a case, in which Mr. John Berry was complainaat, app eare d in our police reports. Au observation made by Mr. Berry, in reference to himself, caused a policeman to remark that Mr. Berry was a returned convict. On enquiry we have ascertained that such is not the case, and in justice to Mr. 13,1 . 15 we publish the explanation , at the s a me time, observ ing that the mistake did not originate with our reporier. '1 his will, no doubt, satisfy Mr. Berry, and set the matter right with his friends, as we understand Mr. Berry is now engaged in a respectable line of business. LATEST INTELLIGENCE. THE NEAPOLITAN DIFFICULTY VIENNA Baron Hubner has been directed to proceed to Naples as soon as possible. it appears that the parjons recently granted by the King of Naples have not satisfied the Court of Vienna, and it is considered advisable that Baron Hubner's mission should be immediately carried out. THE PRINCIPALITIES A letter from Vienna, of the 24th, in the Post Ampt Gazette, says : " Count Coronini, Commander-in-Chief of the army of occupation of the Principalities, left Giurgevo with his suite by a steamer for T emes war. All the heavy materiel and the fi.ld equip ments have already been brought up the Danube by steamers, but no time has yet been positively fixed for the departure of the troops. The Turkish troops have begun to retire from the two points of Bucharest and Giurgevo which they occupied in concert with the Austrians. The Turkish artillery and cas airy have gone to Schumla." RUSSIA AND THE TREATY PARIS, MONDAY EVENING The Constantinople Journal announces that Admiral Houston Stewart, who is cruising in the Black Sea, had arrrived. before Odessa. General Scogonoff, governor of that town, having demanded instructions of his government by telegraph, announced that orders had been given for the evacuation of Kars, Reni, and Kelia, which will have taken place by the end of six months, as fixed by the treaty of Paris. THE FRENCH FUNDS PARIS, MONDAY EVENING. The Paris Funds closed today as follows Three per Cents, 71f. ITALY. The Austrian garrison of Piacenza continues to receive reinforcements. THE ORLEANS FAMILY. The Comte de Paris and the Duke de Chartres have not left for England. They have proceeded directly from Hamburg to Eisenach. FRANCE. (FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT PARIS, SATURDAY EVENING the fete yesterday passed off tolerably well, though the people were rather disappointed at a balloon ascent which had been announced not takine , place, and at the fireworks not being so brilliant as usual. In the morning aTe Deum was chaunted at Notre Dame, but it was but scan tily attended, even by public functionaries. It was observed that the cafés on the Boulevards went to some expense in putting up illuminations on the fagades. As this was contrary to their usual custom, some surprise was felt, and it turned out that the police had made them put up the decora tions, under the threat, if they did not, of pre venting them placing chairs and tables on the outside of their establishments—a measure which, in this hot weather, would deprive them of all their customers. _ An Algiers newspaper says that, at the end of une last, about 1,470 heetores (the heetores is two and a-half acres) were planted with cotton, but that the plant had suffered from drought and insects. In the plains of the Seg and the Habra (where in previous years the cotton flourished most), the plants, however, were healthy. A curious fact in connection with the cultivation is mentioned—it is, that the laurel rose, planted by the side of the cotton plant, preserves it from the ravages of insects. On the whole, the cultivation of the cotton iu Algeria is progressing so satisfac torily as to warrant the hope that, in a few years, it will become one of the most important in the colony. PAHIS, SUNDAY EVENING. The Emperor, the Empress, and the Imperial Prince leave this evening for Biarritz, but, at the end of the week, the Emperor will return. It is believed that Russia will he severely offended at the title of Duke de Malakoff being conferred on Marshal Pelissier. I mention, as an on dit of the political circles, but without crediting it, that the French Govern ment thinks that the English fleet in the Black Sea is stopping longer than is necessary. The Moniteur announces that General Codring ton and General de M. 'Marmora have received the military medal of France. M. Pacheco, the new Spanish Minister at London has arrived in Paris, but instead of going at once to his destination, he intends, it is sail, to pass a few we eks at Enghien, a watering place a few miles from this city. The commercialmercial reports of the week d o d o not yet record any renewal of activit y , begin.thoughl this i s the epoch at which it should Manu facturers and traders complain bitterly of saving been forced to increase the wages of their workmen, and of the dearness of raw materiel. Foreigners are described as reluc. tant to give orders at the high prices exacted, b u t nevertheless sales of some importance have been made for Brazil. Russian houses also have purchased furniture, silks, bronzes, & c ., largely. At Lyons and St. Etienne there has been a large advance in prices. The price of wheat is on the decline. At Havre, transactions in cotton have not been animated; the stock on the Bth was 104,701 bales, 5,000 less than at the corresponding period last year. St. Petersburg letters say, that the Count de Morny, therFrench ambassador, was the lion of the day, and that he cast the English and Austrian ministers completely into the shade. The Austrian Cuunt Esterhazy, it appears, made tremendous haste to get to St. Petersburg before de Morny, in order, by being presented first, to take precedency of him ; and though he arrived first, he had the mortification of finding that he had forgot his credentials, and so could not be presented. Letters of Constantinople of the 7th, announce a rise of five piastres in the price of h w eat from the Danube and the Sea of A zoff. W H AT O'CLOCK IS IT ? EXTRAORDINARY CASE --A very cur i o us looking young man, well-dressed, who gave hi s name as Richard S,rear, was brought before Mr. Gladstore, yesterday, at the police court, in custody of officer 694, who told the following story :—iie was on duty in Great George's Square the previous Light, when he heard a noise in the area of Mr. Robinson's house in that square ; he looked and saw something emerging from one of the kitchen windows, and then thinking it was a robber, he made close to the place, when he saw the prisoner in the area with his boots in one hand and his coat in the other. He heard a noise in the house at the time, and by the time be had secured the prisoner, one of the servant girls of the house came dlwn and said there were robbers in the house. He asked the prisoner who or what he was ? but he would only tell him his name was Richard Spear. He asked him what brought I,im into the house ? and his reply was, " I went to see what o'clock it was!" This was all he could ascertain of or front him. A servant girl in Mr. Robin. son's house, said about the hour in question, she was awoke by a noise " gently tapping at her chamber door," when she asked who was there ? She got no reply, but the " knocking" went on. She again enquired who the intruder was ? but not getting any answer, she concluded it was not one of the family, and she gave an alarm, end then she heard some one run down stairs, and she called the master. In reply to his Worship, the prisoner, who seemed very shy at his position, said he " merely went into the house to see what o'clock it was." The police officer, in answer to his Worship, said the prisoner must ha ve g ot in by the same window out of which he found him com i n g, as there was no place about the house broken into. The prisoner was remanded to this day, as there was a question raised to his sanity. FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE. SPAIN The Minister of Public Works had ad report to the Queen on the state of tb which he declard that the apprehension was totally unfounded, and that the rise in the price of grain was the re countable panic and excessive Minister had, nevertheless, ' extend to the Ist June, 1857 decree of the 11th July la , tation of grain and brer Her Majesty, accedi signed a decree to th Moat of the Spanish army, lately conducted t, and otained permission t previously taken the oat. , used Queen.

All the rest of the press, in this town, is devoid of any news at an from Austria, to day, and bankers and merchants in close rela tions with Vienna, know nothing of such alarming intelligence; a Vienna correspondent in the Borsen Zeitung, however, mentions as a groundiesg rumour current in that capital at the date of hiS letter, the 14th inst. TURKEY, I wrote to you some time ago that a mixed cons . ° mission had been appointed to regulate the respec' tive claims of the British and Turkish governments` which have arisen during the war.

Their place of meeting is in the Ministry of Finance. PERSIA. Letters from Persia mention a curious fac t ' namely, the appearance of the English flag on the walls of Herat. As all accounts agree in the fee t there can be no doubt about it, but the Persiaos have two versions to account for it. According to some, it is the work of the mysterious Englishmo l who was supposed to have been at Herat at the time when Youssouf Khan was still master there' As I wrote you at the time, the Persians were yeti much intrigued by this man, who was disguised' 91; a cattle dealer, and as k e d f or hi s remova l, to whilcu! however, the people of Herat opposed themselves' The hoisting of the British flag is now attribute d by some to his agency. The other version of the , story is, that th e p eo pl e o f H er at got a reinforce merit of several hundred horsemen from the south , who were seen to enter by the Persian army b e fog! Herat. The people of Herat being apprized that this arrival had been seen by the Persians, an d greatly magnified on account of the du st which they raised, took advantage of this t°, spread the rumour that a large English force ha d entered Herat, and in confirmation of this they hoisted the English flag.
