THE EXPRESS, FRIDAY EVENING, NOVEMBER 9, 1866.

It is curious to reflect, says the Daily News, Apar singes.
laxly the legal body includes the extremes d honour
and disrepute, and gains accordingly from the public at
once profound respect and contempt. Despite the dignified
offices they supply, barristers are notoriously unpopular in
the House of Commons, till, like Mr. Coleridge, they have
proved that they are also gentlemen. Instinctively, an
introduction to on attorney throws us on our guard, till
we recognise that he is a man to be trusted. One cause
for this universal feeling is the want of a sufficiently broad
and liberal education, but the second and deeper reason
for the suspicion entertained of the profession lies in the
character of some of its members, and to remove this stain
Mr. Coleridge invokes the establishment of a higher moral
tone. To these oonsiderations the Daily Newswould add that
the lawyer is placed in a position of almost unexampled
temptation, and in every transaction in which he is en-
gaged has to contemplate and provide against every imagin-
able conception of fraud or malignity. It is hard for any
to walk in such ways without the burrs sticking to the
garments, to hold the mind always unspotted and serene
amid such foulness and such tempesta. To raise the moral
tone of our whole society is the only way to effectually
attack the evil. Clients who want dirty business done
will to the end of time find venal lawyers to do it.
Again, the growth of general culture will aid the elevation
of the profession out of its petty vanities. When the
ordinary education of the middle and upper classes is such
as to give them a title to be called well-informed, the
smartness of the lawyer will not venture to show itself.
I There is ample room for self-improvement in the bar and
L in the attorney's office, but it must be guided and sup-
ported by a like growth of intelligence and public spirit
F in the nation.

dery warfare, is the chief mode of propulsion to
be considered, the result was very different. The
Achilles glided easily ahead, at the rate of about
13 knots en hour. The Lord Clyde, Bellerophon,
Pallas, Caledonia, and Ocean were practically
almost equal, at a rate of 11 to 11t knots. The
Hector was about half a knot slower, and the
Research made barely 9 knots. This comparison
shows, however, the newer vessels to still greater
disadvantage when the relative proportion of steam
power to displacement is considered. Aiming
expressly at speed, and sacrificing every other
condition to that object, the present Chief
Constructor has given a proportion of one
hone-power to every 6 tons displacement in
the Pallas, to 7 tons in the Bellerophon, to 7.6
tons in the Lord Clyde, and to 8.7 tons in the
Research. On the other hand, the Achilles, as
we have seen, has a proportion of but one horse-
power to 8 tons, the Hector the same, the Cale-
donia and Ocean to 6.7 tons, and neither
in hulls nor engines was any provision made
from which a speed exceeding the usual rate
was anticipated. The comparative cost, in which
also advantage was loudly claimed for the new
system, has already been adverted to, and taking
vessels of equal size it has been seen that there is
at least no economy attained. The Bellerophon
and Lord Clyde each cost more than our original
model, the Warrior, though the former are but of
4,000 tons, the latter of 6,000, and a hundred
feet longer, with proportionally heavier armament.
Of course the explanation is that the newer vessels
have heavier armour ; but still the fact is that
we were promised cheaper and faster ships, and
we have found them dearer and slower.
Still, however, the real question remains—
which is the most efficient carrier of guns, irre-
spective of cost and of peculiarities of build?
And here there is to be taken into account not
only speed, but handiness and steadiness. In this
respect we can only say that the merits appear
divided, and no vessel was so supereminent as to
warrant our adopting her for our sole model.
The Achilles was the fastest and the steadiest ; in
both qualities the Pallas came next, but she was
superior in handiness, and this quality the
Bellerophon shared with her, while, according to
some accounts, she exposed her steering apparatus
to the chance of shot to a most perilous extent. All
the wooden vessels roll very heavily, and there-
fore would be comparatively unserviceable in any-
thing of a sea. And in fact it was found that
none of the fleet having broadside ports could
safely open them for practice when rolling more
than 10 degrees each way, while during the
cruise there were days when they rolled as
much as 25 degrees. Thus even the Bellerophon
could only manage to fire two shots out of fifteen
rounds that were ordered, when she was rolling
no more than 13 degrees.
In this rapid review we have purposely omitted
mention of the one representative of the turret
system which Admiralty energy and impartiality
provided for trial. This was the little Wyvern,
one of the confiscated Confederate ironclads, built
by Mr. LAIRD, and afterwards purchased by our
Government as the easiest means of reconciling
international duty with English law. As she was
not meant for service at sea, more than might
barely suffice to carry her across the Atlantic, she
was unable to share in all the trials, and having
only a horse-power of one to 7 tons, she could
not compete with the Pallas, the next above her
in size. Yet she made 10 knots under steam.
But she did prove, what has already been proved
to redundancy, that a turret vessel can not only carry
heavier guns than any other, however large her
rival might be, but can work them in weather in
which no other could open her ports. She fired
when rolling as much as 22 degrees. And as it
is abundantly obvious that a turret is consistent
with the utmost speed that a well-designed hull and
powerful engines can yield, the nation must still
await with what patience it can the time when some
Government or other will be honest enough to
give us vessels fairly designed to show the full
qualities of which this system is capable.
On the whole, it cannot be said we have ground
for much congratulation on our present state.
That we have vessels enough, if they were only
good enough, is true, for we have more than any
other power, or two powers, in Europe. But
while other nations have sought, at home or
abroad, to find the constructors in whom science
and practice were by the public voice recognised
as most fully illustrated, and have accordingly got
vessels built on uniform and definite principles,
and coming up to the expectations formed of
them, we have thrown our whole fortunes into the
hands of ono set of officials, in no way distin-
guished or even known, who have at our expense
been educating themselves by perpetrating half a
dozen experiments, in which the boasting prog-
nostications unhappily recorded in official docu-
ments stand iu ludicrous contrast to actual results.
Now and then the public is startled with the dis-
covery of what these results are, but official
jealousies and obstructiveness will not voluntarily
convert themselves into disinterested patriotism,
and they will amuse themselves at our expense
just so long as we permit them to withhold infor-
mation, and to calm us with the assurance, on
their veracity, that we are prodigiously superior to
- every other nation.

THE EXTRADITION OF LAMIRANDE.
As the above case will probably engage the attention of
parliament, the Times thinks it desirable to put its readers
in possession of all the facts, and therefore narrates the
circumstances according to the last and most trustworthy
intelligence from Canada. That a most unfair advantage
was taken of the adjournment to hurry away Lamirande
while the application for a writ of habeas corpus was pend-
ing admits of no doubt whatever. Whether his extradi-
tion could properly have been refused upon the grounds
alleged by Mr. Justice Drummond is another question.
A serious doubt rests upon the nature of the charge
itself, for the falsification of accounts is not
among the crimes specified either in the English version
of the treaty or in the act of parliament, which purports
to give effect to it. The Times is unable, then, to indulge
the consolatory belief that nothing more than a technical
injustice has been committed. Observing that Lord
Monck having received notice that application would be
made for a writ of habeas corpus, would have acted
more wisely in awaiting the result of the motion, the
Times adds that had the prisoner's counsel and Judge
Drummond known the unscrupulous persons with whom
they had to deal, we may bo sure that both would have
been more on their guard, and no similar mistake is likely
to occur in future. Some time ago the Moniteur formally
announced that Lamirande's extradition was managed in
strict accordance with the provisions of the Extradition
Treaty. The Times can only reply that a repetition of the
proceedings which the Moniteur thus sanctions would make
it impossible to maintain that treaty, for the sake of
enforcing which we have so lately modified our own rules
of criminal procedure.

tntional amendment. The Governor of Louisiana
will, it is reported, reconvene the constitutional
convention of 1864 ; the leading members of Con-
gress assure him that he would be sustained by
force, if necessary.
The trial of the Baltimore police commis-
sioners continues. No doubt is entertained that the
governor will remove the commission. The further
trial of the Fenians in Canada was postponed from
last. Saturday until to-day.
Fenian indignation meetings have been held in
all the large cities of the Union, offering assiatance
to liberate the Fenian prisoners in Canada, and
defying the Canadian authorities to execute them.
Stephens addressed a mass meeting at Jones-
wood on Sunday. This is understood to be his
last speech previews to his departure for Ireland,
where he pledged himself to strike a blow before
the new year. He referred only briefly to the
prisoners in Canada, expressing his belief that
they would not be hanged.
Mr. Seward has written to Sir Frederick Bruce,
stating that the American consul was instructed to
obtain a copy of the record of the trial of the
mane in in Canada, and asking Sir Frederick, should
there be any delay in obtaining the record,
to have the executions postponed, in order to give
time for the record to be examined. He also
said that the offences involved were eminently po-
litical, and that sound policy recommended tender-
ness, amnesty, and forgiveness. These suggestions
were freely made because all European governments
had proposed the same opinions to the Federal go-
vernment during the rebellion.
President Johnson has informed the Tammany
Hall committee of his profound sympathy for the
convicted Fenians, and declared that he would do
all he could for their welfare and relief.
Sweeney has addressed a letter to the American
consul at Toronto asserting that I•PMalion was
not connected with the Fenian army. •

ROME.

DIR. GLADSTONE'S INTE
POPE. RVIEW WITH THE
The Corriere Italian° professes to have received
from a person worthy of credit the following ac-
count of the interview between Pius IX. and Mr.
Gladstone :
Mr. Gladstone found the Pope as calm as possible.
Politics were not mentioned until the end of the conversa-
tion, and it was Mr. Gladstone whoj took the initiative.
The Pope complained of the Austrian government, while
fully admitting that events in Germany had put it out of
the power of that government to defend the Holy See and
almost justified its conduct. Mr. Gladstone congratulated
the Pope on the arrival at Rome of the Antibes Legion.
On this the Pope said," Terrestrial legions have the defect
of often failing of the end they desire to attain.
Moreover, what matters it to mo what shall happen!
Rest assured that when the French are gone I shall not be
less protected, seeing that the legions which defend the
church never fail." In saying that the Pope raised his eyes
to Heaven. Mr. Gladstone wished to speak of Italy, and
he asked what truth there might be in the preliminaries
of negotiations with the government of Florence mentioned
in the journals. This is the Pope's reply :—" Ido not
read the journals ; I know nothing in that respect ; I am
ignorant of everything ; all I know is that in dying I shall
not leave entire to my successor the sacred and inviolable
inheritance of St. Peter." The conversation on Italy
having ceased, the church in Ireland was spoken of,
and the Pope warmly commended to Mr. Gladstone
his well-beloved flock. Then, smiling, he added, "If one
of these days I should have to leave Rome, although Ire-
land is far from the centre of Christianity, I should not ob-
ject, perhaps, to choose it for my domicile. Malta, a place
almost entirely mercantile, now that the revolutionaries
accuse my poor priests of simony, would not
have my sympathies." He said in conclusion
that he would go where Providence—mighty and never
failing to judge men who are not eternal—should wish. In
saying these words the Pope seemed much moved.
The following prayer is now being used at Rollie,
the Pope having accorded to those who use it a
hundred days' indulgence :

PRAYER ?OR THE PRESENT CALAMITIES OF THE CHURCH.
Sweetest Jesus, our Divine Muter, who ever boniest the
perverse machinations of the Pharisees, who lead us into
snares, bring to naught the counsels of the impious and of
all those who, abusing human weakness, seek with their
false arguments to, ensnare Thy people. Enlighten
Thy disciples with the light of Thy grace, in order that
they may not be corrupted by the cunning of those wise
men according to the present generation, who spread
everywhere their pernicious sophistries in order that we
may fall into their errors. Grant us the light of faith,
that we may recognise the snares of impious men,
that we may remain firm believers in the dogmas of the
church,and may ever reject the falsehoods of the deceivers.

THE RUSSIAN ARMY.
The Ismtide Busse, of the 3rd, contains the
manifesto of the Emperor Alexander, calling the
conscripts of the empire to their standards. The
official document only says that the object is to
complete the army and the fleet ; but it will be
useful, under present circumstances, observes the
Debats, to note that the recruitment this year
has taken place simultaneously in the two zones
of the empire, which is a departure from the
custom hitherto pursued, according to which the
recruiting has been effected alternately. Every-
thing denotes an actual augmentation of the
effective of the Russian army, and the reinforcements
which it will receive this year may be set down
at 300,000 men.

The semi-official Vienna Journal of to-day says

" The statement of some of our contemporaries
that Count di Revel has been appointed Italian
