SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.

RAPIDITY of interchange forms so striking an
element of the commercial movement of the age,
that every reasonable suggestion for the improve-
ment of the Mail Service deserves attentive oomiders-
tion. In fact, the mercantile supremacy of Ragland
is in no small degree owing to the penevertag care
with which she has made herself a centre whence
radiate lines of communication with every quarter of
the globe. The mercantile exchanges with the Conti-
nent are now conducted with a rapidity which makes
us look back with a feeling akin to astonishment at the
tardiness of the system that prevailed only a score
of years ago. U, however, the geographical situa-
tion of this country, which lies off, ea it were, from
the main tack of Conlnental trade, gives os an
advantage is trans-oceanic communication, the ma
peerage which interposes between no and the Conti-
nest of Europe places us at • disadvantage com-
pared with oar Continental rivals in trade. For
instanse, bullion, or perishable commodities, may
be soddenly wanted, in execution of press-
ing orders for some part of the Continent. Our
dealers may have a supply of the required com-
modity, yet, unless the means of oomennaitxtion

between the two parties to the bargain be rendered
ma prompt as possible, the intending buyers may
tern their attention elsewhere. It should be our
object, whilst retaining the great and patent ad-
vantages of our insular position, to do our utmost
towards overcoming, in the interest of commerce,
the barrier interposed by nature between us and our
European customers.
The Telegraph does much towards the attainment
of this object, but commerce must have the means of
expreseing its wants more fully than by this medium.
The Telegraph is a most important auxiliary to the
Mail Packet Service, but the improvement of the
latter meat ever be of primary importance. A sug-
gestion has been lately thrown out for a useful
alteration in the service between England and
Germany, rid Dover and Ostend. It would really
appear that no adequate advantage is derived
from the expensive service between these two ports.
At present two peakets with the mails leave Dover
every night at the seine time, one for Ostend and
one for C 41111; but the per meagre by the Calais
packet are met at Ghent ►y the mails delivered at
Ostend, the trains from Calais and Ostend respee-
tively fornstag a junction at Ghent, and thence pro-
ceeding to Cologne. It will be asked—What is the
use, then, of the Ostend route? Why net
mad the mails for Belgium and Germany
rid Calais, is the same packet that takes
the 'Preach mails? Why net, indeed! The
representation is not founded on the mere score
of economy, for it is pointed out that the packet
for 086 end might leave In the day time, thus
securing an alternate service for the Orem'
mails every twelve hours. By thus substituting a
day mail service, rio Dover and Outsud, for BIG ex-
lora **kg service, which takes place musette-
neresly with that performed via Calais, the utility
of the whale arrangement would be doubled.

To hate this postal meTios twies doily, imbed si
once, is surely a point of sufficient importance to
engage the attention of the Post•ofsce authorities
and of the Government. If the arrangement camel
be carried oat in the manner enggested, we should
be glad to knew the meson why."

IT is • gratifying and suggestive fact. The
giant young Republic keeps her birthday is the
vary been of the old Monarchy. The deolmetlen of
the Independence of the United States is celebrated
in the metropolis of the United Kingdom. The 4th
of Italy has is annivemary at the Landon Tavern.
What a strange deep gulf severs es from three days
when OZOIGL rn. was Lag sod Lied NORTE
Minister. What weedirfal growths 0 time have
those eventful foonmore piers brought forth. Every-
thing at this celebration went well, and in good taste.
this thing was said at it too important to the welfare
of both nations to be passed over in silence. Mr.
DALLAS, the able and accomplished American
Moister, communicated, amid the hearty and pro-
Imaged cheers of his auditors, the welcome intelli-
goam—a That visitation and search, as far as re-
a garde Americas vessels on the high ass in time
a of peace, is frankly and finally ended." This is ILS
it ehenld be. The British Government could not
with any regard to prudence insist ma the mainte-
nance el a fancied sight whose setae' exer-
cise wee tantamount to a declaration of we,
British Mahatma could not amuse the vali-
dity of a claim which one of the most emi-
nent and jealously national of British judges lad
long since detinively condemned as utterly un-
tenable. It was time that the prepostermis ionnarp-

tics should at once be abandoned, and Government
are entitled to credit for having mule the concession
frankly and straightforwardly.
In another point of view the obaerfeloas of ks:
DALLAn are well deserving of attention. Hw
—and evidently states wick aallostisfrAlePr"
that diplomacy in America has never risen to
the rank of a regular profession or a separate
Kamm No Government has been more fertosate
than that of Washington in the asked=
of three citisens by whom it has been represented
at foreign Courts. From FIRAXILIif downwards the
good sense, the acuteness, and the success of the
emissaries of the Republic have been matters of
general observation. A main reason Is that American
ministers abroad are selected freely from those who
have attained to eminence in public or professional
life at home. The choice of Government is not
restricted to the comparatively narrow limits of a
single service, nor are the objects of its choice men
who have been reared in the fixed traditions of •
profession whose rules were formed when Govern-
ments were everything and the People nothing ;
when Europe was a mere system of dynasties, sad
the sole science of international politics was the due
maintenance of the Balance of Power.

It is already felt to a certain extent, but the feeling
mast yet grow deeper and spread wider, that this
Diplomacy of the Put is an anachronism in that state
of greater internal freedom and closer international
union, towards which, in spite of all temporary ob-
'tractions, the nations of Europe are slowly but
sorely tending. Ina free state like our owe the
sauce= is becoming yearly more apparent. Inter-
nally this country has probably realised the highest
degree of rational freedom ever yet enjoyed by any
state in ancient or modern times; but in the con-
duct of oar external relations we are still where we
were in the days of the S=oa=k. The members of
our diplomatic service are trained in the same
school as the diplomates of the Continent ; they
are governed by the same maxims, and purees in
the main the same objects by the same means. Te
keep Europe tranquil at any coat, to repress the
nationalities, to maintain the Balance of Power as it
was artificially fixed in the so-called settlement of
1816—is the aim of English no less than of Conti-
nental Diplomacy. The aspect of free England is
no lees sinister to the hopes of Continental
Liberalism than the aspect of Russia or of Austria.
In a word, the free tendencies and the liberal spirit
of the English people find no expression in English
diplomacy ; and one main reason of this is, that
English diplomacy is a special service trained to the
administration of an outworn system of statecraft.
When the time comes for effecting a change in this
respect, it will probably be found that the first step
in the process of reform will be the introduction of
each a plan as that which prevails in the States—
the employment of distinguished citizens of every
clam as the representatives of their country abroad.
