LONDON, TUESDAY, OCTOBER 19.

Tile Times announces a belief in what has been for
some time fared and apprehended, but whet is
nevertheless still almost incredible,—that Lord DERBY
and his colleagues have advised the Qt7EEN to grant to
Convocation her Royal License, to proceed at its next
meeting to business. We would repeat that such 'story '
would be quite incredible were it not for the general
character of the present government,—the peculiar
rashness and precipitancy of the PREstr.it,—&uld the
High Church and Tractarian obligations he and
his colleagues have imposed on themselves. If
however, it be true, then the weakest and most in-
competent ministry England has had slow the '
Hanoverian succession, will have dared to do an set
more audacious and mischievous than the strongest
ministry since that period ever dreamt of. Since
1719, such a thing as restoring or reviving cunt°. '
nations never entered the head of a responsible '
adviser of the English crown, until, in an evil
moment for the country, Lord DERBY became the
minister of Queen iii-routs. And if be has
really Riven any such advice to her litursee,
be will have done so in the presence of two recent
facts—one, that the very advocates of such a policy
two years ago withdrew their own motion on the
subject in the House of Lords; the other, that they
have never dared even to moot the proposition is
the House of Commons.
True, the revival of Convocation for business pur-
poses is within the traditionary scope of the royal
prerogative. But we live under a parliamentary
government ; in England we have a parliamentary
church ; and the policy of our ministers must in all
respects and on all subjects bo a parliamentary policy.
Now, even for the SOVEREIGN to revive Convoca-
tion after more than a century's silence,—
a silence in favour of which there always
has been, and is still, an unanimity of all ra-
tional opinion—will substantially be to take the
Church of England out of the sphere of parliamentary
jurisdiction; a step which the people of England sever
will submit to. That, however, is the end and aim
of the schemers and plotters, lay and ecclesiastical,
who have been urging this step on Lord DERBY and
his colleagues. They seek to render the Church
an institution separate from, and independent
of, the legislature ; with powers, privileges,
and authority, which parliament cannot in-
terim with or control. They wish to make
a two-fold division of royalty; one, as head
of the Church with its spiritual council, Convocation;
the other, as head of the State, with its temporal
council, Parliament. Once tolerate Convocation, and
we shall have to embark in a struggle that must end
either in a complete revolution of the constitution of
this country, or in the destruction of its Church.
Were it possible simply to revive the Convocation
se it was situate in 1719, a greater nuisance could
not be restored. There are no such scenes and 'se-
cession of discords, wrangling', disputes and
literary warfare* in the world's history as
those which Convocation from the period of the
Revolution of 1688 to 1719 produced. The two
houses quarrelled and fought about privileges and
forms; the lower house of clergy abused the upper
house of bishops; the upper hones of bishops cen-
sored sad rebuked the lower hones of clergy; the
writings and sentiments of the most eminent men of
the day were tortured and ransacked by eager,
furious pigmies to afford means of prosecution and
persecution; episcopacy was accused of all manner
of treasons and sudiseances to the Church
because of its moderation towards the State;

pretensions were raised far the Church inoisepsiibis
with order and civil government; the tensed= of
dissent and et bee ("Won waseadeedeagered ;wet:

; the most preposterous 11011, stuled
and the sompabsesion of the church was is

issued ; with, however, the same
goneigesems "envy, hatred, malice, adafl
unsberitableons ;" and once more, with the full
appeabstios of the Archbishop of CANTERBURY and
amidst the apple:see of the nation, Convocation wee
closed in 1719, it wee hoped, for ever.

But it is impossible now simply to revive the Ccee.
vocation that was silenced in 1719. To all fluorine(
the past (modified a little perhaps by the refleassesb
of modern manners) we should have to add the went
evils of the present; we should have to add monies
of oar own, theories of our own, designs of our own
times ; worse than all, the lessitry of one slew.
To restore Convocation now is to provide a battle-
field for the two armed and exasperated parties that
as yet strive and struggle for mastery apart in the
Church of England—an arena round which the
anxious hopes and the fears of thousands would
Ilrevable and crowd—an amphitheatre whereon
to bold an ecclesiastical bull fight. And when
victory shall have declared for one side, where
then would be the atnek of England P Rent, torn,
and divided, a separation and secession would be
inevitable. Out would march the worsted and the
debated party, leaving the spa& to the conquerors,
but carrying away with them that spirit of oeuvre-
Union which was the glory and the strength of the

THOSE who regard diplomacy In an useless art, and
who think its maintenance as a separate branch of
the public service to be little better than a disguise
for oligarchic sinecnrism,—ought to wish for Lord
MALMESBURY'S continuance as long as possible in his
present office of Secretary of State for Foreign
Affairs. People may dispute about the merits of a
' machine when they see it in full action ; but who
can defend the necessity or utility of mechanism
which stands absolutely still ? The motive power of
diplomatic agency consists is the intellectual vigour
and political skill that reside for the time being in
Downing-street. What if that energy and capacity
be nil
Lord MALIIESEWRT has now been seven months
in office, and within that period ho has completely
realised the character of Grand Cypher. Every-
where our ministers find themselves reduced to a
condition of entire passivity. Good or evil counsels
may appear to them to prevail in the courts to which
they are accredited; but destitute of instructions,
sad utterly uncertain as to the possible views or
=el the government at home, they naturally
from the exercise of all influence whatsoever,
sod are forced to remain silent spectators where,
Cider other auspices, they might have borne a part
honourable to humanity and advantageous to their
country. Ths rivals of British power and influenoe,and
all who hat sot fear the name of constitutional freedom,
are not slow in availing themselves of the opportu-
nity thus afforded for regaining their old ascendancy
in all the minor states of Europe. With absolutism
established and about to be enthroned in France, the
lesser states can have but one potential friend and
counsellor, whose standing policy consists in the de-
velopment of free institutions. But, under the be-
numbing inefficiency. of Lord MALMESBURY, Eng-
land is fast sinking into a condition of international
nonentity such as has not been seen since the dis-
honourable days of the Srusiers. In more respects
than one, however, Lord Decay's Cabal appears
emulous of the fame of their notorious predecessors
of two centuries ago. They are equally unconcerned
at the prospect of the community at home being con-
vulsed by religions paroxysms, as that its dignity
and reputation abroad should be blighted by the
paralysis of their own incompetency.
At Florence we have nominally a minister pleni-
potentiary; and, thanks to the late government, the
office is at present filled by a man in every way
competent to discharge the duties that may devolve
is the ordinary rooms of things upon our envoy.
But Sir HENRY Butwea has had too much experi-
ence in his profession to venture to take any decided
step or even to assume any decided tone without de-
finite authority from Downing-street. Left to
himself, or sustained by a government in
England conscious of what was due to the con-
sistency and repute of the nation he repro-
ving', Sir HENRY would long ere this not only
have obtained redress for the wrongs done to British
subjects in Tuscany, but have assumed that position
at the Florentine Court that would have rendered
ezpostelation and requests on the part of the English
people unnecessary on subjects where the QUEEN'S
envoy might with propriety have anticipated the ap-
ing The case of the MADIAIS is on every tongue,
and its details are recounted by every fireside in the
load. The injustice and cruelty done by the Tuscan
Government is felt to be an insult to the faith, an
ontrage on the safety of Protontantisin through-
out the world. In every Übssal constituency,

The great news of the y, the liberation of
Abd-el-Kader, took all P • by surprise when
it appeared in the lifonilenr thlir morning. So
nom letely were the drew:Mt:Men now °Edgily
disclosed kept secret, that the journals most fre-
quently favoured with government communications
were not even aware that the Prince President
i had seen the Emir at Amboise, and represent Abd el-
Kader as having, from the turrets of his prison,
looked wistitilly through a telescope at the presiden-
tial train as it whirled rapidly by. The tardy act
of reparation now dons, or, to speak more correctly,
promised to be done, to a deeply injured man,
has produced a very favourable effect. The Mons.-
few, as usual, was extensively placarded at au early
hour this morning, and groups have been seen all
day reading with mach interest the following account
of an interview which took place between Louis
Napoleon and Abd-el-Kader at Amboise, on the 16th
of October:
Tin Prime hso marked the end of his tour by a great
act ofjustion sad national generosity : he Ina restored Abd-
elsKadg to liberty. This act has long been decided in his
mind ; he wished to carry it into effect as soon as circus-
stages should permit him to follow' without any danger to
the country, the suggestions of his heart. At present,
Franee has in his strength and his rights too legitimate •
ocoadone* not to show herself great towards a vanquished
enemy. In retaining to Paris, the Prince stopped at the
Chateau d'Ambotia, sad having seen Abd-cl-liader, in-
foamed him of the end of his captivity in the following
terms
Abslnl-Kader,—l come to inform you of your libera-
tion. Yea will be coadsctsd to Brooms in the states of
the Sultan, as soca as the asmmaif preparations shall have
been made, and you will receive there from the French go-
vernment an allowance worthy of Tour former rank. You
are aware that for • length of time your captivity his
caused ma • reel sanction, for it incessantly reminded me
that the government which preceded me bad not observed
the regagemeate entered into towards an unfortunate
enemy; and sothiag in my eyes is more humiliating for the
government of a great nation than to misunderstand its
etresith to each a point se to fail in its promise. Gene-
rosity is always the beet counsellor, and I am convinced
that your residence is Turkey will not prove injurious to
the tranquillity of oar pagesions to Africa. Your
religioe, like oars, enjoins submission to the decrees
of Providence. But if Francs is =Often of Algeria, the
reason is that God willed it to be so, and the French nation
will sever give up that conquest You have bees the
enemy of France, but I not the less render justice to your
courage, to your character, and to your resignation in mis-
fortune. That is the reason why I consider it a point of
honour to put an end to your captivity, having full coon-
donee in your word."
Thew aoble words ly moved the ez-Emir. After
having ezprem to ed his hens his respectful and eternal
gratitude, be swore ea the holy book of the Koran that be
would never attempt to trouble our rule in Africa, and that
he would submit, without any eencealed design, to the
will of Frage. Abd-el-Kader added that it would be

before the public, M. de la Rochette, the editor of the
Esperante des l'euple, and M. Olivier Mersen, the
