Yesterday morning the Earl of Shaftesbury visited the noble lord at Cambridge House. The Earl left frequently, and as frequently returned, having been the medium of communication between 'his lordship and several political friends. The Right: Hon. Wm. Cowper, M.P., visited the noble lord, and remained three-quarters of an hour. The three baronets, Sir C. Wood, Sir G. C. Lewis, and Sir George Gray, arrived in rapid succession soon after eleven o'clock, arid had a long interview with Lord Palmerston. They were joined shortly after twelve by the Earl Granville and Mr. Ellice, M.P. Earl Granville paid two visits to the Alarquis of Lansdowne, and one to Mr. S. Herbert in the course of the morning. Lord J. Russell rode in the Park during the morning, but made no political calls. Lord Palmerston had an interview with her Majesty in the afternoon. The Globe states that Lord John Russell did not make any personal objection to take office under Lord Granville, but he showed many reasons why, in his opinion, any Government headed by Lord Granville would not possess the amount of strength and durability likely to be secured under the auspices of Lord Palmerston. The Daily News hints at the nature of the objections to a Granville Cabinet. It would be regarded as formed rather in conformity with the•personal predelictions of exalted personages than with a view to Parliamentary opinion. Twenty-two Roman Catholic members voted in favo ur of the amendment on Saturday morning, and eight voted against. The Globe says it has authority to state that, the House of Commons being adjourned till Fri day, the 17th inst., the House of Lords will not meet until that day, except for the discharge of judicial business. Yesterday, a blue-book was issued, giving the correspondence respecting the aff a i rs of Italy. It appears - that in April, instructions Were given by the Earl of Malmesbury to our repre sentatives at Paris and St. Petersburg, to make enquiries as to the alleged secret treaty between France and Russia. Count Walewski, in reply, says that all allusions to Eastern questions had been specially avoided in the understanding with Russia, which related solely to Italy. He added, "His Majesty has authorised me to repeat that nothing in the existing arrange ments, nor in the communication exchanged on the subject, with reference to the affairs of Italy, is of a nature to affect, iu the slightest degree, the IUARE THE ABOVE. C. TURMEA y Chamb, interests of Great Britain, and that the new report of a treaty of alliance, offensive and defensive, existing between Russia and Fiance, is entirely without foundation." The War news this morning, adds scarcely a new fact to that already known. The Times Vienna correspondent says, that a council of war has been held at Verona, and almost all the members expressed their disapproval of the dispositions of Count Gyulai on the 4th and sth instant. The excitement at Vienna still continues to be very great on this subject. The loudest railers are military men. Some coffee-house declamators have been arrested by the police for expressing their opinions on military affairs too freely. The Russian circular coupcilling the neutrality of Germany during the present war, is published in extenso. The Monitcur of yesterday, contains a telegram from Milan which states, " That a part of the French army has passed the river Adda, without striking a blow. In the the hurry of the retreat from Piacenza, the enemy abandoned a great number of cannon, and magazines full of provisions and ammunition." A circular of Prince Gortschakoff, to the diplomatic agents of Russia, says, our desire as well as that of other great powers is to localise the war. The line followed by some states of the German Confederation, tends on the contrary to generalise the struggle- Now, the German Confederation is a combination purely and exclusively defensive.

An inquest _has been held on the body of a ballet girl, who is supposed to have com - nitted suicide. But there is na proof that she really did suspected, drown herself. The session of the Central Criminal ( The calendar is an mrt com- morning. menced yesterday unusually important one, in fact more important than any since that which contained the name of Palmer, to whose case that of Mr. Smethurst is by some persons compared. John Lockhart Morton, a merchant in. the city, was finally examined at the Mansion House, on iturday, and committed for trial, on a charge of and uttering a b :change for £5OO. The prisoner read to the court statement, in which he acknowledged his guilt, detailed the circumstances that led to the perpetration of the crime, and lastly, expressed his willingness to suffer the full penalty of the law. A melancholy result of family quarrels and indulging an unbridled passion was shown at South wark police court, on Saturday, when Mr. Burcham committed a young man, named Jeremiah Coghlin, for trial, on a charge of wilful murder. The victim in this case, James Fadden, was brother-in-law to the prisoner, by whom he was stabbed with a knife during a dispute about some trifling matter. _41... ROMAN CATHOLIC CLAIMS THOSE claims, Lord DERBY'S disposition to grant which, gained his Administration the favour and support of the Roman Catholics who assert them, at the late Elections, were made - the subject, a day or two since, of an important and influential move ment in the metropolis. It was a meeting to take measures to obtain for the Roman Catholic inmates of prisons and workhouses the rights of religious equality and the spiritual assistance they require to the good order and discipline of those establish ments. The remark of the Chairman (the Hon. Charles LANGDON), in opening the business, that " they were old enough to remember the time when the Roman Catholics were struggling for political freedom and for the redress of other grievances, but he never knew any evil result to arise from the open expression of Catholic feeling and opinion, while in adopting the present course they were only adopting that pursued by other classes of the com munity,"— such a remark, we say, suggests a suffi cient excuse for their proceedings ; and when, to this, he added the expression of, his hope, " that in dealing with the subject they would not allude to any political party in the state, or refer to any Government, as all they asked was even- handed justice, whatever party was in power," he certainly disarmed, in the very outset, all opposition, could any have been offered on such an occasion: But when they came to the practical business of the meeting, they presented, we cannot but think, a claim to the liberal sympathies of the English people, Protestant though the great body of them undoubtedly are, which it would be difficult to resist. The first resolution, for instance, setting forth, " that by the constitution of this country, and in particular by the acts of the legislature in regard to such of Her Majesty's subjects as are not of the Established Church, it is recognised as a high and sacred principle, that full and perfect liberty both in religion and education should be enjoyed by the people of this realm,"—such a declaration as this, so full of trust, and so characteristic of justice, can never, in an age like the present, fall powerless and objectless uport the public mind of England. What they complain of is, that they have not that perfect liberty, in religion and educkion to which, as British subjects, as living under institutions which provide that there shall be no disqualifications on the score of religion, for any privilege which, as English men, even the poorest and humblest of them, have a right. As another of their resolutions set forth, " that notwithstanding the great and unquestionable principle of our laws, a large number of Her Majesty's (Roman) Catholic subjects, inmates of prisons and workhouses in England and Scotland, are at this time deprived of the full and free 'exercise of their religion, both as to religion and education, viz., by defective and unfair registration in- work houses, by obstructions to the entrance and inter course of the (Roman) Catholic clergy with (Roman) Catholic inmates, by strong inducements held out for the attendance of (Roman) Catholics at Protestant services, by visits in private of Protestant chaplains, by the placing of (Roman) Catholic children under Protestant teachers and in Protestant schools, by removing them from the legitimate influence of their pastors and friends, and by various other ways . of management in detail." Nov this, it must in fairness be confessed, is not just and under the circum stances of this country. It is a grievance - a real, an intolerable practical grievance, and that too in 1 of ex invited, or ten on Sunday afternoon; and., shortly afterw ingham, Palace, and, the _Daily !

The Times says it has good reason to believe that Lord Palmerston will succeed in forming an Administration which will command the support of the Liberal party. The Earl of Clarendon, Sir C. Wood, Sir G. Grey, Sir G. Cornewall Lewis, and Earl Granville, bad interviews. with Lord Palmerston. Viscount Palmerston, late on Sunday evening, left Cambridge House, for Pembroke Lodge, Richmond, to visit Lord John Russell. The Past says any attempt to connect names with offices can of %course be only matter of conjecture for two or three days says it is certain Lord John Russell will have some office in the Cabinet ; and the Post gives the same assurance Ad, The Advertiser be in the new ministry at all, but that his brother, Mr. Charles - PUHA will have a seat. It is reported that Lord Palmerston will go into the House of Lords next The Tidies says it is reported that her Majeit: a mark of special favour, to confer the C session y intend; as Garter on Lord Derby; and, as there is no vacancy, an extraordinary Chapter mast be summoned. The Mum says her Majesty will also confer the Grand Cross of the Bath upon Lord Malmesbury and Sir John Pakington. The Dzily Hews observes, the conferring the Garter on Lord Derby, just now. would look so like a counter demon- stration in favour of a Ministry from ,whom Parliament has withdrawn its confidence, that it hopes the rumour will not prove correct. Sir William Jolliffe is to be made a Privy Councillor. The Queen has thanked Lord Normandy for his speech of last Tuesday in the Lords. It is the Advertiser which makes this statement : A very careful analysis of the late division shows that there were -eleven professed Liberals who voted with the Conservatives, and two professed Tories who voted with the Liberals; ten Liberal members were absent, and four Conservative. The great bulk of the Liberal Roman Catholic members voted for the amendment which overthrew the Government. In the City, it is remarked that any new Ministry will be placed at a great disadvantage by having to meet those financial requirements which should have been encountered by Mr. Disraeli in March or April, and which the dissolution enabled him to avoid. _.._. POLITICAL MOVEMENTS.—Yesterday morning, at an early hour, the Earl of Shaftesbury visited Lord Palmerston at Cambridge House, Piccadilly. He left frequently, and as frequently returned, having been the medium of com munication between the noble lord and his political friends. The Right Hon. William Cowper, M P., visited the noble lord, and remained three-quarters of an hour. The '• three baronets," Sir C. Wood, Sir G. C. Lewis, and Sir George Grey, arrived in rapid succession soon after eleven o'clock, and had a long interview with Lord Palmerston. They were joined shortly after twelve o'clock by the Earl Granville and Mr.. Ellice, M.P. Earl Granville paid two visits to the Marquis of Lansdowne, and one to Mr. Sidney Herbert, in the course of the morning. It was rumoured at the Reform Club in the afternoon, that it is not at all certain that Lord Palmerston will be able to construct a satisfac tory government. In the event of his making up a Cabinet, there seems to be a certainty that Sir Alexander Cockburn will become Lord Chancellor, and that the Chief Justice ship of the Court of Common Pleas will be conferred on Mr. Justice Erle. The Marquis of Hartington will be made one of the Under Secretaries bf State, in the event of Lord Palmerston's administration being formed. Lord John Russell rode in the Park, but made no political calls. the Mark. They s h ow th a t it i s wan t e d t o conver t from CalcUtta.

TIMES, TUESDA , JUNE 14, 1859 matters of the most solemn importance. It ought to be redressed; and one's only wonder is that ti have so long remained passive under it stronger did they make their case appear when, in a further resolution, they showed, " that the injustice of the privation is more severely felt from the fact that not only is religious liberty - respected in the treat ment of Protestant inmates of workhouses mid prisons, but an ample proivigon is mire by 1a for their spiritual wants, and fog► the educaliort of their children in workhouses, industrial and district schools, while no provision whatever (ex.cept in the case of reformatory schools) is made for the spiritual wants of the (Roman) CathoFrc inmates. of such establishments, which are nevertheless supported by rates levied on (Roman) Catholics and Protestants alike." This exposition of the circumstances of their position, in these respects, exhibits, we say, a case of unfairness, whiel no liberal-minded Protestalt can ever consistently refuse to have remedied And it was, it seems, the sympathy found in the Derby Ministry, on. what were matters of grievance, not to s which , they cm, and, the f only day when they can possibly go to it, is one thing: to let it be . appropriated as a Sunday school for the mental labocr of thcee, who toil bodily all the week, ifit quite another thing. They have thus very pointedly sug;gested an abuse of it which will injure their cause. There is no doubt, as they reminded the Lord President,. " that firs. various national . institu tienn already open with sgch beneNial resins' on Sunday afternoons,• by order of the Government suchas the museurat and gardens at Kew, the picture galleries and gardens- at Hampton Court r Glreenwieh, &c. er e highly appreciated amlextensively enjoyed by the people, the Erunday visitors greatly exceeding those en all the other days of the week."

At any rate, we have no intention of entering upon it,. be out of place, as preliminary to the few remarks we are abeat to eminent American Prelate, that " the Lord's Day may in one sense be called the Sabbath, beefithse on that day we res callings, and all other worldly ernployments, and dedicate it to the immediate worship of GOD, whose —and that although service is perfect free " the charge of Judai upon those that use this term in a Christian sense, may appear too severe ; yet, upon many accounts, it is expedient not to distinguish this day of the Christian warship by the name of the Sabbath, that term being properly applied only to the day of Jewish worship." Now, if this be so,—if the character of our Lord's Day be such—be, in fact, as we believe some of our own great divines have styled it, the Christian's weekly commemorative festival,—it certainly would not seem to preclude the taking of sober, rational recreation by those who have no other opportunity of enjoying "rest from the works of their ordinary callings,, being fully occupied all other dal; " from early morn to dewy eve," in wearying toil and care. Not that the religious character of the day is, on any account, to be overlooked. It is the only day in the week, to the great bulk of the people, when there is leisure for any special attention to their religious concerns, as well as to those of their physical and mental condition. There are sacred duties for that day, which Christians lie under a solemn obligation to attend to. But if the calm and quiet enjoyment of that recreation which the toiling masses so urgently need once a week, is not incompatible with those duties, then, assuredly, ought so large a majority of the community, and one whose industry so . eminently earns for them the right to such an enjoyment, to be debarred of no fair opportunity of obtaining it on the only day in the week when it is in their power to do so. "Absence of occupation is not rest." To cease from labour is not always to recruit exhausted nature, --'not with rational creatures, at any rate, whatever it may be with our beasts of burthen. They need more than that, who are engaged all the week in wearying labour, whether of body or mind. They need to recreate ; —that is, to refresh after their week's toil, to be relieved after their six days' weariness. At the same time, the recreation, the very relief they seek, must be in keeping, as much as possible, with the sober sanctity of the day; and, especially, ought it to be so taken, as not to interfere with the careful and conscientious performance of its religious require- ments. The question has just been brought before the Government again, by an application for the opening of the South Kensington Museum on Sundays. -A deputation to the Lord President of the Council, headed by Sir. JOSHUA WALMSLEY, and comprising a number of working men, as well as several scientific personages, has presented a 'memorial from the working classes, setting forth, in a strong light, their reasons for seeking access to that Museum, on Sunday afternoons. In the first place they maintain that it was established principally to promote the education of the people ; and it is open on week day evenings for that purpose—a boon which, ' they acknowledge, i is highly appreciated. But then " large numb ors of f:c industrial population resident in the manufacturing districts of the metropolis, are precluded from availing themselves even of the evening exhibition, owing to the great distance of the Museum from their places of business or resi - and, on that account, they say, " for this numerous section of the metropolitan workmen the Sunday opening would be of the greatest advantage." But here, we humbly think, they rather overshoot dente," —Lord Palmerston the more conservative, and Lord John Russell the more popular section—and that LordiGraaville, who possessed the confidence• ()tooth statesmen, might: have' greater facilities for inviting the whole Liberal party under one administration, than, could be cnj oyed by either of the sectional leaders.

THE DOCK COTTAGES TEMPERANCE SOCIETY had a great gathering yesterday, on Bidston-hill, when some hundreds of working men and their families from Birkenhead, and neighbourhood, availed themselves of the opportunity of spending a pleasant afternoon amongst the heather, for which Bidston-hill is so justly celebrated. A brass band played through the town of Birkenhead, and wal joined at the Park entrance by the " Dock C&' zbr .ges band of Hope, and proceeded to St. Aidan's Terrace—there the children sang several temperance melodies—then to the Rev. G. Burnett's, and through Claughton, to 'the Dock Cottages, where the band played several lively air much to the delight of the inhabitants of that th' populated pl ace .
