Freights for short voyages being much in request, rates have fallen considerably ; a number of ships have been offered and refused, at even low rates, for the West Indies and Brazil, as the requirements are well supplied. East India and China freights not having improved are neglected, as the last accounts show that homeward freights in the East are falling, and merchants here will not take ships, except at low rates; an advance in outward freights is, therefore, expected. The Pacific and 'Mediterranean trades are dull, and no alteration in quotations. Since our last freights to northern United States ports have advanced, and our quotations are easily obtainable,.

In the LONDON STOCK MARKET to-day the Funds showed increased flatness, owing to the uncertainty respecting the position of the Ministry, coupled with the unfavourable state of the weather. Consols experienced a fresh decline of k per cent. The Funds closed at the following prices : Consols Money . . . . It Account . . . Exchequer Bills . . Bank Stock Three per Cents Next Account The following appeared in our later editions 931 1 ,, 931, 3 6 pm. 228 30 93.1 of yesterday : The funds opened with continued dulness, and re mained without animation. The debate on the paper duty continues to be looked forward to with great interest. The 4th of the month passed off quietly without any failures in addition to that of Messrs, Mouat, Nickisson and Co. At the Bank the applica tions for discount were numerous.—Times. The funds to-day were dull, at yesterday's reduction. There was a sale for account of the Court of Chancery, but the principal check arises from the considerations connected with the lateness and apprehended deficiency of the harvest. The immediate impression with regard to foreign politics was perhaps somewhat more cheerful. This being the 4th of the month the discount market was active, and little business was done below 4 per cent. At the Bank the demand was rather brisk for a Saturday. The bills due to -day appear to have been well met. There was no bullion operations of any importance at the Bank to-day. The arrivals of specie this week have amounted to_about £lOO,OOO, of which £236,090 was from Australia., and £164,000 from the United States, including £40,010 by the Arabia.—Daily News.

In a very full house last night, numbering within a unit 500 members, Mr. Gladstone brought forward his motion for redticing the customs duty on French paper to the amount of excise paid by the home manufacturer. A very spirited debate ensued, when, on a division, the Government proposition was carried by a comparatively small majority, the numbers being— For the motion 266 233 Against it.. Majority The last difficulties in the way of the French expedi tion to Syria' have at length been removed, and on Saturday the TUrkish Ambassador signed all the neces sary protocols? According to the latest telegrams, a portion of the expedition has already sailed, and the remainder of the force will proceed to-day. There it little doubt that the terhis of the convention ate such as materiallytart.strict - the action of the trench troops # and amongst other conditions it is stated that their stay -isto be limited to six months. We shall see. The successful landing of a portion of Garibaldi's forces is confirmed ; and judged by the light of the latest telegrams, Garibaldi himself is not unlikely at this moment to be engaged in a triumphal march upon Naples. On the Ist he was at the head of 20,000 fighting men assembled at Messina and in its neigh bourhood. He had erected a fort at the point of Sicily nearest Calabria, and under its protection had collected a flotilla of nearly 1,000 boats, which, under a convoy of steamers, was ready to waft his axiiiy across the straits. The Neapolitan army, from numerous sytnp toms, are expected to make common cause with the patriots the moment of their landing. Signals are agreed on for telegraphing over Calabria and the Basi licate the pressure .of continental soil by the first step of the, landing Liberator, and beacons Will blaze on every peak of the lower Apennines. ' - _ . With respect to the affairs of Germany and Italy, the _Dusseldorf Gazette makes some extraordinary statements. Most of the Journals, i; says, only indulge in conjecture as to the interview at Tceplitz. We are able to assert that not only were several protocols signed, but also positive conventions on divers points. With respect to Italian affairs, the questions of Venice, Naples, the Pontifical States, and the general situation were dis cussed.. Prussia declined making any engagement whatever relating to Venice. As to Naples and the Pontifical States, Prussia declared that she regretted their present situation, and did not conceal her opinion that the Cabinet of Vienna might have preventid the catas trophe ; but, she added, that so long as other States did not intervene, Germany could not, as it would only lead to other intervention, and would. not save the thrones. It was agreed, as to the general situation of Italy, that a republican movement could not be tolerated, and that it was advisable to discourage any tendency towards a cession of territory to France, and to withdraw Italy as much as possible from French influence. With this view_Prussia recommended Austria to take a less hostile attitude towards Sardinia. Yesterday, her Majesty and the Court set out for Scotland. At ten o'clock they crossed over to Ports 'mouth in the royal steam-yacht Fairy, and travelled by special train 'to the Nine Elms Station, whence they were conveyed by carriages to Buckingham Palace. In the evenihg, at half-past eight o'clock, her Majesty pro ceeded to the Great Northern Railway, King's Cross, en route to Balmoral. They would reach Edinburgh about eight o'clock this morning, and, after a brief rest, would review the Volunteers, proceeding the following morning from Holyrood to her Highland residence. An experiment at lighting the streets of Paris has just been tried on the Place de l'Hotel de 'Ville, which is said to be more effectual and economical than any yet essayed in any of the capitals of Europe. At each cor ner of the street, where its name is affixed, is to be placed an electric burner, of sufficient brightness to illu minate the whole length of the street. The only incon venience attendant on the experiment was found 'to be fle over brightness of the glare, which is painful to the eyes, and which will require to be subdued before it can introduced into 'gene=ral use. the gitat difficulty bithetto has been in giving pert:date& brilliaiite to the elEctyit light, and taking away the 'fitfulness occasioned by - the too rapid consumption of the carbon, and _ till this be overcome, we can scarcely hope that the new illuminating power will entirely supersede the use of gas. Mr. Newlands, our able borough engineer, has (We happen to know) a project for improving the present mode of lighting our streets; and so soon as he has matured his ideas, we may doubtless elpect a valuable report 'on this really important subject. A frightful gas explosion took place-in a public-house in Islington, London, on Friday night, the consequence of a thief having unscrewed the gas-fittings and taken them away. Twelve persons, including the landlord, were seriously injured, and blown about in all directions. The thief was not apprehended. The loss is covered by insurance in the Liverpool and London Fire-office. One important fact, in reference to the mjsterious murder at Road, has just transpired. The two pieces of newspaper which were found stained with blood, and in which it is supposed that the knife or weapon with which the murder wag perpetrated was wiped after the crime had been completed, have been proved to be portions of the Tines of the 9th of June. They were stated at the inquest to be parts of a paper which was not taken in by Mr. Kent or any other person resident in the house, and from that circuinstance the possibility of some person ha:•ing secreted himself on the premiSes was suggested. As these fragments, however, are, proved to be portion's of the journal Which Was regu larly supplied to Mr. Kent, the theory, which amounts to almost absolute certaintly, that the murder was corn= mitted by some inmate of the house is so far additionally confirmed. The missionary zeal 'awakened in London on behalf of those who cannot be induced to attend the regular ministrations of the church continues as active as ever ; and, on Saturday evening last, the Bishop of London preached in the open air to between 1,500 and 1,600 working men and children in one of the most uncivilised portions of the outskirts of the metropolis. The place selected for this mission service lies between Shep herd's Bush and the Great Western Railway, on the east of Wormwood Scrubs. The people who live around and about it are chiefly engaged in the making of bricks and pottery ware, while it is dotted here and there with gipsy tents and the temporary habitations of persons who are not able to obtain better shelter elsewhere. In one of the fields immediately behind Clifton-street, in the Latimer road, there is a hill, and from it was announced, the Bishop would, like St. Paul of old on Mars Hill, preach on Saturday evening. Many of the leading employers of labour in the neighbourhood, in compliance with the solicitations of the local clergy, paid their men early in the evening, and vast numbers of them not only attended the service, but took their wives and children with them. The bishop, who was attended by the Rev. F. Gell, D.D., his cha plain, arrived at half-past seven o'clock, and having selected the spot on which he would stand, retired to a small tent close by, and there put on his episcopal robes. The latter part of the bishop's address is said to have been particularly solemn. Darkness had come on, and the moon had risen, and all• around the gipsies' tents were lighted up. Not a sound was heard but the bishop's voice, and now and then a train on the adjacent railway. A deep impression appeared to be made on Many, tinttsed to such scenes, by the solemnity and pecu liarity of the scene. - Some time ago, it may be remembered, Mr. John Laird threw out a suggestion, that in case of threatened i nvas ion, the different ferry steamers and tug-boats might be utilised in the defence of the river, by arming each with one or two guns of heavy calibre, in propor tion to their tonnage. The project has been brought under the notice of the Admiralty, who have had reports upon the subject, and the whole of the correspondence involved was published in the form of a Parliamentary paper on Saturday. Mr. Laird's idea is, Chat the ferry and tug-boate• might, for an outlay of about £2OO or £250 each, be Sufficiently strengthened to carry heavy guns, from thirty-two to sixty-eight pounders. The owners might be bound to allow the Government the use of each boat for three or four days each year, free of cost, for exercising the guns ; and he proposes that the.guns and carriages be kept in store at a wharf on the river side, so that in case of emer gency the whole flotilla might be fitted with these guns, and be ready for active service at a few hours' notice. Captain Mends, R.N., approves of the scheme. The steam-tug companies would require, however, a retaining fee of about £lOO a year for each boat, and about £l5 a day when called out for practice or on actual eervice. Other reports are also submitted, and, at the close, the Admiralty, " after maturely considering the proposal, do not feel justified in incurring the expense of fitting out these vessels," thus giving the coup de grace to the scheme, " STRIPES AND STARS." THE struggle between light and darkness began the moment when, amid the murky chaos of a void and formless creation, the loud and puissant accents of the OMNIPOTENT reverberated along the face of the tuinultitous deep and said, " Let there be light." When bright bands of cherubim sang on high a thrilling welcome to that first dawn of glo rious light on earth, it was but a song of partial I iriumphi for even then one half the earth lay veiled under the curtains of night. When the sun burst forth from his chambers in the east to gladden the bowers of Paradise, he left vast ter ritories . uncheered by his rays. In his ceasele round, while PECE:BUS drives forth before his path the chequered gloom of the west, the nations of the east become again wrapt in dreary darkness. In the moral world there exists, and ever has prevailed, a similar contest between truth and error, which also is coeval with the history of man. Scarcely had the Aemi6itne pronounced his high approval of the works of his hand when the subtle agency of darkness began to tempt our first mother from the paths of truth. Ever since that primitive epoch war has been unceasingly waged among men between the principles of good and evil. The success of the encounter has varied marvellously from age to age, and the heat of the 'conflict has been shifted continuously from kingdom to kingdom, and froth one great 'divi sion of the earth to another ; and now we watch its progross on tb vast continent for long centuries unknown to the history of civilisation. The fierce contention which now rages there between Slavery and Freedom is only another manifesta tion of the • undying struggle between right and wrong, which is as old as the human race. itself. For the moment it attracts unusual attention, owing to the weighty consequences likely to be evolved in history of• a great nation as the combat in this form approaches a climax. The North American Republic had scarcely numbered fourscore years of existence when it began to be apparent that it contained within itself the elements of certain if not speedy dis solution—as if destined to realise in the history of its national life the truth , of the 'words applied to man's life. "if by reason of strength they be four score years, yet is their strength labour and sorrow ;"—and, we might add, " it is soon cut off and flies away." paeans ondeclaration the of e inde pendence, pendenee, when vi i We have scarcely ceased t o hear these republicans s ing the e fourth anniversary of eehear shouts announcing th e approach of a doom which has, more or less, threatened the existence of the Union for several o r m e ad e years back. The crisis , we ar e told , is imminent The dissolution of tßheetwlionenionthiiss a a factd xo already r determined upon. the wreck will be complete. The confUsion likely to ensue in commercial ar.d mone tary affairs i s scarcely to be estimated. It is anticipated not without reason that trade will receive an all but fatal blow ; a ll kinds of property will be ruin ed ; an d fortunes accumu lated by ..ars of toil and care will be swept away in a moment. The dissolution of the confederacy is an event which, although at first regarded with the utmost alarm by all parties, is now to be looked upon as a foregone conclusion—one which might be temporarily arrested, but which can bY, .no means be entirely averted. Merchants who have dealings with Southern traders are recom mended to close up such affairs as sOoti as possible , I!o]ders of Southern State railway or city stocks, Or securities of the general government, are earnestly advised to realise tpoti them at once. Bankers at home and abroad are warned to pre- pare themselves for the inevitable panic in finan- vial affairs. " This Union" says one of their own legislators, "is just as travellers tells us many Eastern habitations are : a palace to look upon ; all fair on its outside, and presenting the appear ance of a house that should last for generations ; but the master puts his walking-stick or his boot-heel through the rafters, and he finds that the white ants ha . 'C-e eaten all the substance out of the timbers, and that all that he sees about him is a coating of paint, which an intrusive blow may disperse in a cloud of dust. The skirting boards have already perished, the rafters are now ready to tumble in." Another authority asserts that " already the cotton States are prepared for revo lution. The piece is loaded. The torch is lighted, The cannonier stands by his gun waiting for the fatal signal." Are we to believe, then, that this great Republican Union is an utter failure as a form of popular government ? Is its short-lived prosperity already on the wane ? Having reached and passed the meridian, has it now only to look forward to an evening of degeneracy, and the closing-in of a rayless and hopeless night of poli tical decline ? The " stripes and the stars" of the American banner fitly represent the antagonistic principles which seem about to tear that proud emblem of unity in twain. The blood-red stripes ot the Southern bondmen have not appealed in vain against a forced and unnatural union with the bright stars of liberty and equality in the North. The star of freedom is in the ascendant ; and the slave-owners would seek protection for their unhallowed traffic in revolution and disruption. Darkness gives way before the light. Slavery is a distinct article of the federal constitution of the United States. It is embedded in the very founda• tions of southern industry and society, and it cannot be overturned without producing universal confu sion, especially throughout the States of South Carolina, Florida, Alabama, Louisiana,' Texas, Mississippi, Arkansas, Tennessee, and Kentucky. Against this system of slavery the North has waged, and now wages, an unsparing and success ful warfare. It has not, nor is it deterred from the execution of its mission by the fear that society will be dislocated, government destroyed, and probably ruined as effectually as if an earth quake had shaken and upheaved or a deluge submerged the soil. The immediate issue upon which this contest depends, is the election, in November next, of a new President. • Mr. LINCOLN is the choice of the Northern - Aboli tionists, and Mr. BRECKINRIDGE that of the Southern slaveholders. The victory of the for mer is generally looked upon as now certain ; in which event the latter and his party will retire from Washington to Richmond, and organise there a United Southern Republic, with BRECK INRIDGE as its President. There seems really nothing to prevent such action on the part of the South, and there seems every reason to believe that it will take place. That the conse quences might be exceedingly disastroua-, who can doubt ? But what of that ? Magna est veritas et prevalebit. If slavery be a crime which fills the land that tolerates it with cruelty, immorality, and barbarity ; if it morally outlaws all who practise it, and dishonours the flag of any nation in whose constitution it is an element, shall it be permitted, for any temporising considerations of • expediency, to remain a blot on the escutcheon of an enlightened people whose eyes have been opened to the enormity? Fiat justitia runt embli! Come wreck, come ruin, let the bondman go free ; or let his blood be alone upon the heads of those who despise the voice of humanity and of reason. England has nobly Washed her hands clean of this degrading traffic in human flesh. ft may involve our American friends in no trifling sacrifice to do the same ; but with the consciousness of rectitude on their side, they need not fear to encounter it. In England, the land of liberty, where every man may lift up his eyes and his hands to hea ven, and feel that he is as free to think, speak , and act, as to breathe the * air which surrounds him , sh all we not appreciate the inestimable bles sin g s of our lot, and cast one lingering, hopeful lo ok of sympathy towards Alabama, Tennessee, and the other benighted regions of the Southern States ; an d, so feeling, shall we not shout across the billows of the Atlantic an earnest word of encouragement and exhortation to the men of the North to break the fetters of the slaves in the South, a n d set them free, or for ever to cast off from the Union, as unworthy of them, those brutalised men who have rivetted irbris on the flesh of their unfor tunate, but, in the sight of heaven, equal fellow men. In the name of ' heaven-born freedom, then, of which we are the heirs and inheritors, we say to Mr. LINCOLN and his supporters, with all our heart, " God speed " ss FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE. (FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.) FARIS, Monday Morning, August 6, 1860. You will no doubt have seen ere this reaches you that the telegraph has confirmed the state ment to which I alluded yesterday, o f the pre parations which had be en made by the Gari_ baldians for a descent upo n Calabria. I have long foreseen, and have uniformly maintained, that the successful deliverer of Sicily from the iron yoke bf its oppressors would never stop tin he had at least made a similar attempt to extin guish the last remnants of tyranny at Naples, and render a return to absolutism there impos. sible. I mentioned in a previous letter that the Cala brians had sent a deputation to his E x cellency begging him not to delay to co me over an d help them ; and he has been able s o far to comply with their request as to despatch, under th e command of one of his lieute nants, an advanced guard of 1,500 volunteers, who have effected a safe landing at several points on the, coast, near Reggio. Gariba ldi would no doubt have rapidly followed in person, as the Neapolitan Government, on being apprised of the intended descent, instantly Ordered a considerable body of troops to procee d to the menaced locality; but he has not felt himself at liberty to refuse .the superior claim on his personal presence of the National Committee at Naples, with whom he has . _ been long in correspondence, and who only waited to send for him until affairs were so far settled in Si c ily as to admit of his leaving without any misgivings. This committee has solicited him to come to Naples at once, and take the direction of affairs, and he has complied with their request. The history of William the Third and James the Second has, therefore, by this time, been repeated, i n all probability. Garibaldi enters by one door, and Francis the Second steps out by another on board the Austrian frigate which, with prudent and considerate foresight, has been placed at his disposal by his cousin the Emperor Joseph; and if so, there will be no longer a Bourbon rei • gning in Europe. If the fortunate revolutionary hero could be in two places at once, he would, doubtlebs, be found also in Rome, or in its near vicinity, at this moment, where his appearance would net be unexpected. This would speedily bring matters to a crisis with the commander of the French troops in Rome on the one hand , a nd with G e neral Lamoriciere on the other; bu t whether it would also have the effect of cutting, once for all, the knot of the Italian qUestion, is a very different matter. Thie . Panic chanticleer is crowing loudly and strongly at the removal of the ditenities which havt stood in the way of the sailing of the Syrian e:qeditfini. The Constitutionnel, the Debats (which on Saturday had a long article on the subject), the Patrie, and others, abandon them selves to the highest flights of exultation, " Oizr soldiers," says the last-mentioned journal, " are departing fot Syria! The last remaining diplo matic difficulties are snioc:thed over (aplanies), and at len , th the noble cause, so energetically represented by France, and which is nothing more or less than the cause of civilisation and of humanity, triumphs over all the objec tions suggested by different views of policy. We are setting off; and this news will be received with profound joy by the entire body of French society, in the cities and in the country districts, in drawing-rooms and to workshops. We had only one fear: it was, that diplomacy, occupied as ever—and doubtless with goodeight—with details which have their importance, and with questions which will have their day, might lose time in the discussion, and interpose fresh sources of delay in the departure of the expedition, which the Imperial Government has proposed to Europe; but this fear has not been realised, and diplomacy is to be congratulated in this instance for its manage ment. The agreement between the Great Powers is at this moment perfect. It is a happy event, on which it becomes us to congratulate ourselves without reserve, but without, however, forgetting that, the original idea of the expedition emanated from France, and that tha proposition for it was made by the Emperor on the same day on which the despatch from Beyrout apprised us of the frightful massacres of Damascus. On that very day, it is related of the Emperor that he closed the council of his ministers with that expressive and familiar saying, a true ',saying ci la Henri IV., pent chanter maintenant la chanson de ma mere.' "It is a saying which history will • never forget." The Emperor held another meeting of the Council of Ministers on Saturday afternoon at St. Cloud; and rumour still speaks of certain sti pulations of an important kind which have yet to be formally concluded. But I imagine it was found impossible to provide for all eventualities before the expedition sailed; and the representa tives of the Powers did the next best thing that was open to them to do in the circumstances, viz., agree to the sailing of the expedition, and reserve as extensive and united a control as possible over its proceedings after it should reach its destination. General de Beaufort d'Hautpoul, who, as I mentioned in my last, left Paris for Toulon on Saturday, is to go out at once to Beyrout in the steam-frigate Mogador, which has been placed at his disposal for this purpose. The English ship Agamemnon arrived there, and anchored in the roads, on the 22nd ult. She carries Admiral Martin's flag, and' several other men-of-war were expected to arrive immediately, off the Syrian coast. Toulon is preparing for the reception of the Emperor and the Empress, as well as witness ing the departure of the troops for Syria. A grand ball is to be given in honour of the visit of their majesties, in the great square of the Hotel de Ville. Arrivals, also, are daily announced and expected at Marseilles, en route for Syria. A detachment of Government navvies left yesterday morning for that port, under the orders of M. Villevedal ; and on Friday a considerable number of scours religieuseB, belonging to different monastic orders, arrived at Lyons from Paris, and who are also on their way to Marseilles. These ladies are the bearers of relief and religious consolation to the Christians in Lebanon, the " victims of the hatred of the Druses and the fanaticism of the Mus sulmans." The Gazette We Lyon publishes the translation of a highly interesting letter addressed by Abd el-Kader to M. Batach, a mercantile agent of Kry, in Syria, dated from Damascus on the 18th ult., in which the noble-mincted Arabian Emir groans over the calamities of the unhappy Maro nites, and details the efforts which he made to aid them. He accuses the Turks of making common cause with the Druses in " killing, robbing, and plundering." The letter thus con cludes :—" Finally, all the Europeans and Chris tians whom I have succeeded in collecting are sheltered in my house. lam offering them all that they are in need of, and I pray Allah to save these poor Christians from the hands of these infuriated wretches." ---- - The interview at Tceplitz continues to be described by the Paris press as barren of all actual results. Accordingly one of the Government organs, which has been much taken up with this meeting, declares " that there is every reason to believe that the two Sovereigns separated with the conviction that their conciliatory intentions clashed with insurmountable obstacles, inherent in the vital conditions of their respective States. In a European point of view, it can only be mat ter of regret, that an allianee between these two great German Powers was not cemented at Tceplitz. Accomplished in present circumstances and on advanced bases, by parties who are them selves retrograde, such an alliance far from afford ing securities for peace and the preservation of the continental equilibrium, would only be the commencement of a series of evils and of dangers for Europe." What think you of that The Commercial Treaty Inquiry continues to drag its slow length along. The Supreme Council of Commerce held, last week, four sit tings for the continuation of the inquiry into the trade in cottons. It received the evidence, of a great number of manufacturers, representing in different degrees this very important branch of national production in France, as well as that of several foreign manufacturers, English and Belgian. The sittings were in some instances prolonged till seven o'clock in the evening. Hi s Excellency bI. Rouher presided at all the meet ings of the council. Alas ! for poor M. Ponsard and the managers of the Vaudeville Theatre, at which his piece was looking forward to a long and prosperous career, the rumour that was circulated towards the end of the week, that the authorities had resolved to put a stop to the performance, turns out to be correct. The suppression is thus announced in the Patric :—"The piece of M. Ponsaid will no longer appear on the bills of. the Theatre de Vaudeville, from considerations independent of the wish of the author, and of that of the direction." Thi s i s rea lly too bad. I believe th a t the Government considers that some covert. hit against its policy is conce ale d under some portions of the representation, and, r egardless of the great pecuniary loss both to th e author and the manage ment, to say nothing o f the disappoi n t men t o f the public, involved in its extinction, issued its fat against any f u ture repetition of the play The discontent an d disappointment of the theatre going part of the community is excessive.
