EXPRESS FROM PARIS.

THE EMPEROR'S SPEECH.
(nor on 0101 00113111PVIDIINT.)
PARIS, 109/rimy Evxmo.

The leading features of the Emperor's speech, as
I understand them, are a positive undertaking to
evacuate Mexico within a reasonably short time ; a
renewed and emphatic declaration of a policy of
peace and neutrality in Europe ; a repudiation of
the reactionary suggestions of the protectionists
against the free trade legislation of the present reign;,
a rather vague promise to generalise public instruc-
tion ; and a decided postponement of political
liberty to the Greek Calends. To these charac-
teristics of the speech, which appear upon the face
of it, I must add one remarkable omission which
occurs to me :—The Emperor expresses no inten-
tion to fulfil the expectation he held out last year
of the abolition of imprisonment for debt, and
offers no explanation of the failure of a project,
which, announced from the throne last year in sen-
sational terms, was considered as good as carried.
Confidence in the infallibility of imperial resolu-
tions must be to a certain extent weakened by this
omission, _ _ _

A hope is vaguely held out at the end of the
speech that when all Frenchmen know how to read
and write political liberty may be safely extended,
because then everybody will understand the beau-
ties of the constitution of 1852. The date given is
a very long one. The present Emperor cannot
hope to live to see it ; neither probably will his
dynasty, unless more political liberty is granted
long before all Frenchmen shall be well educated.
The closely contested election in the Orne has
resulted in the return of the government candidate
by a bare majority. M. de Mackau has polled
15,981 votes, against 14,862 given to Duke d'Audif-
fret Pasquier.,
At the Bourse the speech did not produce even a
momentary rise. Rents closed with a fall of 120.
both for cash and account, closing at 68fr. 52ic. and
68fr. 50c. Mobilier fell 15fr. The quotations in

Sittings in Bane°. —(Baforn LordChial Baron Pollock and
Barons Martin, Mammal, and Pigott.)

DAIENDALI AND OTHU O. LONDON AND SOUTH WWI-
- SAILWAT 00IPANT.

This was a special case, stated for the opinion of the wart
by an arbitrator, in accordance with an order at nisi prima.
The plaintiffs were the well-known carriers who trade as
Pickford and Co., and they brought the action to recover
certain over charges, which they alleged the defendants had
made upon their coneignmente of goods by the South
Western Railway. The company are in the habit of
charging the public for a number of separate packages con-
wiped to one person the tonnage rate, which is much lower
than the rate charged for mull parcels. Mears. Piskford
send by the railway the packages entrusted to them for
delivery within the distance traversed by it. They do not
place them together in one large package, but allow them I.
go separately, (cosigning all for a partacular destination to
their agent at that place, and upon these the company charge
the small parcels rate. The first point raised by the
case was whether the company were justified in
compelling the plaintiffs to pay that higher ram
for carriage. The next question was whether they were
bound to make a deduction for the services of collection,
cartage, and delivery, where those serviceswere not per•
formed by the defendants, but by Mews. Pickferd them-
, selves. Thirdly, another question arose as to whether the
defendants ought to make the plaintiffs pay the Name sum
for the conveyance of goods from London to Southampton,
as they charged the public for carrying goods from London
' to the Isle of Wight.
Mr. Ravin, Q. 0., with whom was Mr. K. Digby, argued
the case on the part of the plaintiffs ; and Mr. C. W. Wood,
for the defendants. _ _ _ _ _ _

The second question was oonoeded by the defendants,
Mr. Wood intimating that they were willing to allow a rea-
sonable sum for the collection, cartage, and delivery of
goods. Be, however, said that it was probable
the point would be brought before another tribunaL
Upon the conclusion of the arguments,
The Lord Chief Baron said the court would not have
much difficulty upon the first point (some of the learned
barons had expressed a strong opinion upon it in favour of
the plaintiffs) ; the second had been given up ; and the
third was the only one that raised a question of any dif.
foully. The court would take time to consider, and give
judgment in a day or two.
Judgment deferred.

WONDERFUL ESCAPE. —A little girl about six
years of age narrowly escaped a frightful death on the
Great Western Railway a few days ago. She was in the
charge of her parents, who were passengers by an excur-
sion train from London, and while the train was proceed-
ing at fall speed the door against which the child had
been leaning flew open, and she fell upon the line. The
accident occasioned great fright to the occupants of the
carriage, and the parents were thrown into a state of intense
anxiety. The Pangbourne station was about two miles
distant, and on the train reaching that place, the railwa
authorities were made acquainted with what had aoer
Men were despatched in search of the girl, who was soon
met, and, strange to say, she had escaped without injury
beyond a scratch or so resulting from her falling upon the
hard ground. She shortly afterwards resumed her journey
with her friends.

SURREY SESSIONS.

(Before Mr. E. R. Adams.)
John Call, 21, a determined-looking ruffian, was indicted
for unlawfully and maliciously inflicting upon Henry End-
lich grievous bodily harm.
Prosecutor said—On Saturday the 16th September, pri-
soner, who had been frequently forbidden his house (the
Royal Mail Tavern) in Albany-street, Camberwell, entered.
Prosecutor said he would not serve him with anything,
owing to his former brutal conduct, upon which the pn-
Boner, using the moat disgusting language, said he bad
come into the house for the purpose of kicking up a row,
and he meant to do so. Prisoner then went up-
stairs to the club-room, and immediately com-
menced a disturbance, and became so violent
that it was found necessary to remove him. On get-
ting to the front of the bar again he threw himself on a seat,
and threatened to mark anyone who laid hands on him.
He was again desired to leave quietly, but refused. Pro-
secutor then went to the door to look for a constable,
when prisoner struck him a violent blow on the head.
The blood poured from a wound on the upper port of the
forehead, and prosecutor lost nearly a pint of blood be-
fore reaching St.. Thomas's Hospital. By the united ex-
ertions of several constables the prisoner was got to the
station.
Mrs. Endlich gave corroborative testimony, and said the
conduct of the prisoner was such as to perfectly terrify
her and others. The blow received by her husband was a
deliberate one, and she believed prisoner must have had
somethingin his hand.
Mr. Plowman, house surgeon at St. Thomu's Hospital,
Said prosecutor bled profusely from a wound in the fore-
head. One of the vessels was divided, and the wound was
a jagged one, and exposed the bone. It must have been
inflicted by some sharp instrument. A stone might do it,
or a pipe, but not a fall against the edge of a door post.
Mr. Letley addressed the jury for the prisoner, but a
verdict of Guilty was returned.
Police-constable 498 said prisoner was known as a very
violent character, and a short time ago he entered a
public-house, and after some altercation threw a pint pot
at the landlady, which fortunately did not hit her. Many
other acts of violence had been reported against him.
The Chairman said prisoner had been very properly
found guilty There There was little doubt he was a violent and
dangerous character, and must be kept under restraint for
a little time. The sentence of the court was that he be
imprisoned and kept to hard labour for nine months, and
at the same time warned him if ever brought before them
again on such a charge, the present case would not be
forgotten.

THE TREATY OP PEACE Brrwzmr APSTRTA AtiD ITALY.

Contrasting the circumstances under which the
treaty of peace between Austria and Italy was signed on
Wedneeday last with those that accompanied a similar
signature between Germany and Italy in 1183, the
rind proceed' to remark that the present peace has been
won by a moral struggle infinitely more glorious than the
material success of the old Lombard League. As it
was, after all, Italian patienoe, sacrifice, and devotion
that carried the victory, let us heat no more of the humi-
liation of a deliverance achieved by France or Prussia.
It little matters whether Italy was actually won by the
Italians. The essential is that it was won for them. It
little sigefies how they came by their own, if they only
learn Low to keep it. The position of North Italy is
now a formidable one, and a nation of men ought
always to command sufficient strength to hold it
against all comers. But to sz,-, men they need
not be ni.:.iers. The strength of a nation is in
those public and private vii toes which convert in one day,
in case of need, a whole nation into all army. That self.
government may be a curse as well as a blessing the
Italians may learn from the examples of Greece and Spain.
Independence is a goad thing, but public security is a
better ; nor are well-balanced finances and light taxation
to be despised.
Until lately, observes the Daily News, foreign domina-
tion in Italy was almost universal, and to all but a few
patriot' this state of things seemed part of the order of
nature. Looking at the magnitude of the transformation,
and remembering that as late as the spring of 1859 it was
common to find the notion of a free and united Italy de-
i:ded as Utopian by English speakers and writers, we
may well wonder at the rapidity with which the great
change has been effected. To Englishmen it must neces-
sarily appear a great gain to Italy that its nationality
has been formed under the influence of freedom, and
that the desire for free institutions preceded the
demand for unity and facilitated its accomplishment. In
looking at the result of so many efforts and sacrifices, it
is impossible not to think of some who laboured long for
their country, but were not permitted to see their work
crowned with success.

The Telegraph finds a subject of speculation in the
thoughts of the young Emperor of Austria when in the
act of Wednesday he recognised the greatest disaster of his
reign. Ey two mighty outbursts of one force, whose nature
he did not understand—the force of nationality—he was
first irritated, then disconcerted, then overthrown. Now
that the contest is over, he can perceive the vastness of the
agency, of which kings and statesmen were but the ort-
conscious instruments.

GREECE.

Letters from. Athens state that General Kalergis
has refused the government of the island of Crete,
and the command in chief of the armed forces con-
ferred upon him by the decree of the insurrec-
tionary committee.
Public prayers had been offered in allthe churches
of Athena for the triumph of the Cretan insurrec-
tion.

The municipality of the city had undertaken to
supply the necessities of the Candiote families who
had fled to Athens, and the government had set
apart a sum of 40,000 drachmas for their relief.
A letter from Constantinople mentions the arri-
val there of a Turkish frigate having on board
700 wounded Turkish and Egyptian soldier.

COMMERCIAL AND MARKETS.

MARK-LANE.-{THIS DAY.)

The show of English wheat in to-day'. market was very
moderate, and in but middling condition. All kinds
moved off slowly, but at prices quite equal to Monday.
There was a fair demand for foreign wheat, chiefly for
mixing purposes, and late rates were well supported.
Floatms cargoes of grain aupporsed the recent advance
in the quotations.
Fine barley was in short supply and steady request, on
former terms. Inferior parcels commanded very little
attention.

The malt trade was firm at extreme quotations. The
supply of malt was only moderate.
Oats were quite as dear as on Monday. The demand for
them was steady.
Beans sold at very full priors, with a moderate demand.
The transactions in peas were limited, on former terms.
The flour trade was firm.
No change took place in the value of either sails or
cakes.

GRAND DRUNK RAILWAY OP CANADA.

After our report left yesterday,
The Cum RICAN, in reply to the questions put to him, said
the equipment bonds were not repayable or renewable for
15 years from 1862. Hitherto they had not been able to
agree on the plans of the Buffalo-bridge with the other
parties concerned, sod if they should oome to an agree-
ment it would be well, having regard to the critical state
of affairs in Canada, and the condition of the money
market, not to beaten the matter unduly. The directors
proposed to call a special meeting of the shareholders to
either sanction or veto the arrangement. All the provinces
had agreed to the confederation, and the bill for the adop-
tion of the measure would be one of the first brought
before the Canadian parliament. Although the confedera-
tion of these provinces was a political event he believed
that no measure could have a greater effect on the condi-
tion of Canada and on the prosperity of the Grand Trunk
Railway. The 13,0001. which Mr. Adams stated had been
lost on the Buffalo and Leke Huron Railway was due to that
company under an agreement under which they could not
earn 95/. without putting 851. in the pockets of the Grand
Trunk Railway Company of Canada, so that it was the in-
terest of the company to have the receipts of the Buffalo
and Lake Huron Company increased. There was no doubt
that the gross amount of money receivable for the postal
service and the conveyance of troops was due and payable
to the postal and military bondholders of the railway.
That looked to be very hard to other damn of bond-
holders, but on consideration it was not really ea The
facts were these. Certain gentlemen, including his
friend 151 r. Baring, advanced money for the completion
of the railway, and without which it would never
have been continued. A committee was appointed to deal
with an overhanging debt of two millions, and only for the
action of the gentlemen to whom he referred the creditors
would have come in and sold the railway. There were
securities worth 400,000/. which they could have disposed
of in liquidation of the debt, but they gave them back to
the amunissioners and took their chance of the postal and
military bonds. For these bonds, for which they paid
English sovereigns, they got 10s. each in preference stock,
which was not 30 now.

A cordial vote of thanks was passed to the directors and
chairman, the latter of whom, in acknowledging the com-
pliment, said, in reference to the threatened Fenian re-
invasion, that he had too much confidence in the honour
of the United States' authorities, in the loyalty of the
Canadians, and in the pluck of ngland, to believe that
the Fenian would be allowed to puma, their lawless
oourses with impunity.
A vote of thanks was passed to the officers of the com-
pany, special mention being made of Mr. Brydges and Mr.
Hickman.

......._.
hir. HICKMAN returned thanks, and a:premed hie confi•
donee in the success of the undertaking.
The proceedings then terminated.

THE SOCIAL SCIENCE CONGRESS.

While fearing that the above association, though be-
coming every year more social will become less scientific,
yet the Tames bas never had a doubt that such an
annual assembling is likely to do a great deal of good.
They talk about things which are important, end enlist
many who have leisure in the cause of practical well-doing.
The association has no reason to regret the choice of its
new president, the useful nature of Lord Shaftesbury's
address, contrasting favourably with Lord Brougham's
tendency to disquisitions on everything that can affect
mortality. Fixing upon the one subject to which Lord
Shaftesbury devoted himself, the relative rekogression
of the poorest class, the Times proceeds to argue that the
remedy is in the public opinion from which the state de-
rives authority to act. Until this opinion allows the
State to interfere ►nd claim the tender mind as its own
there will be no thorough education in England ;
and before the evil of prostrating toll can be
effectually met the nation must consent to enlarge
the powers of the state. The facts as to the female labour
in the brick-fields, and the general details which show
how moral degradation is a direct consequence of the
wretched state of the dwellings of the lowest class, all
seem to point one way—that is, in the direction of more
efficient state control. The most stalwart partisans of
laissez faire must be shaken in their creed when they con-
sider these things. It may be that we shall have to ap-
proach to continental usages in many of these matters.
Mow far, and by what machinery, are questions which the
Social Science people might well consider.
Now that it is uneerstood, remarks the Deily New,
that the aims of the association are practical, the obstacles
created by its pretentious and blundering title may be
said to have been overcome, and the misapprehension of its
character fostered by the discursive harangues of its
venerable president removed ; and though no thinker of
the highest eminence has ever made it his channel of com-
munication with the world, the association does a good
work in gathering up the fragments of knowledge and phi
lanthropy which eie collectively of importance. On the
condition of the manufacturing poor, Lord Shaftesbury
speaks with a fulness of knowledge, and an ardour of zeal
which deserve all respect. On the themes to which he has
drawn attention it may be said that the employment of
machinery has altered the conditions of labour, and that
apart from motives of philanthropy, the industrial inter-
ests of England require that our artisans be neither
overworked nor under-taught. The principles of the

THE REGISTRATIONS.

CITY OF LONDON.

Mr. Spencer Perceval, the revising barrister for
the City of London, resumed his sitting yesterday at the
Court of Common Pleas, Guildhall, when the revision of
the livery lists waa proceeded with.
The following is the result of the revision of the livery
lists : —Claims : Radical. 1, allowed ; conservative, 1, dis-
allowed. Objections : Radical, sustained, 144 ; failed or
withdrawn, 19; conservative, sustained, 14; failed or
withdrawn, 6. There were 11 double objections, and 9
expunged by the barrister.
The court then proceeded with the revision of the
householders' lists, commencing with those parishes in-
cluded in the wards of Aldersgate and Al4ate and Bil-
lingsgate, but nothing of interest occurred, the result
being that 7 of the literal claims were allowed and 2 dis-
allowed ; 58 of the liberal objections were sustained and 2
failed or withdrawn. There were 15 conservative objee-
-1 lions sustained, and 10 bad failed or been withdrawn. Of
the objections 9 were double, and 2 names bad been ex-
punged by the barrister.

'WARR LISTS.-(THIS DAY.)

Oars o'Cwas.

The railway market is fiat to-day, and a fresh
reduction is observable in some cases. Metro-
politan stock remains prominently heavy, and
shows a fresh fall of # per cent. Great Western
and Great Northern A have also receded There
is a demand, however, for London, Chatham, and
Dover and Great Eastern, which have risen 1 and
per cent. respectively.

Metropolitan stock is now quoted 1241 to 1251 ;
Great Western, 61/ to 52/ ; London and North
Western, 1171 to 1; Midland, 121 to ; Lan-
cashire and Yorkshire, 123/ to 124 ; Caledonian,
1231 to 124, ex div. ; South Eastern, 65 to ;
Great Northern, 115 to 116; ditto A, 125 k to
1261 ; London, Chatham, and Dover, 171 to 18;
Great Eastern, 291 to 1 ; and North British, 411
to 42/.
Foreign and colonial railway securities are in-
active, with very few transactions. The tendency
is unfavourable, and a few sales would tend to
depress quotations.

THE SOCIAL SCIENCE SOIREE.

Last evening a soiree in connexion with the
congress took place in the reception-rooms of the Amine
Courts. The Earl of Shaftesbuiy was amongst the cam_
pany, and there were also present the majority of the most
distinguished persons who have taken an active part in
the proceedings of the congress. The magnificent hall was
fully ilium ,ated, and from its grand proportions and the
convenient arrangements of wl';ch it is capable,
proved to be admirably adapted to the purpose.
The promenade was in all respects most af,...eable, and it
was gratifying to feel that, although the company were
free to regard the event as intended especially for their
delectation, the objects of the congress were kept in
view as far as was compatible with an entertainment of
this description. Many specimens of handicraft were
exhibited amongst other features of attraction, and these
included specimens of skill in the industrial arts from
various homes, refngar, and reformatories in different
parts of the United Kingdom. Conspicuous in the list of
institutions of this nature were the Edinburgh Wellington
Reformatory, the Cambridge Industrial School, the
Leamin7ton Female Temporary Home, the Kirkdale
Industrial Ralfged School, the Girls' School of Industry,
Perth; the 1, nited Industrial School, Edinburgh ; the
Paddington Home for Girls, and the Cripples Home,
Marylebone-road. The many proofs of industif and skill
emanating from the inmates of these various institutions
excited much interest and attention, and it was gratifying
to find that the representatives of those institution.—
more especially the lady who presided over the supply of
" arts and manufactures," sent by the Cripples' Home—
took an active part, not only in extolling the merits of the
young folks under their charge, but also in pointing out
the great advantages sect ding from the benevolent mea-
sures now being taken for the repression of crime, and the
employment of those who had been bred in indolence.
In the evening a meeting was held in the Crown Cour',
for the put pose of giving information as to the work of
reformatories and industrial schools in different parts
of the world. The chair was taken by the Earl of Shaftes-
buv.
