In short, the acquisition of Coates will be for us

LONDON, TUESDAY, AUGUST 4.

TRZ Ministerial motion of last night for an amend-
ment of the Militia Laws, will meet with universal
approbation. Formerly the Militia could only be
embodied in case of actual invasion, or
upon imminent danger thereof, or in cue of
rebellion or insurrection at home, or, in
Ireland, upon immediate danger of rebellion
or insarrection. During the late war an extension
of the occasions when the Militia may be embodied
was indeed made. But the extension made by the
statute of 1834 only provided for the case in which
a state of war exists between her MAi EST T endow
/ermine Power." Clearly, then, Government has not
at present any authority to embody the Militia.
And though there may be no immediate necessity for
embodying the Militia, the argument fur entrusting
power to embody it in the Government is irre-
sistible. If we can recruit and till up the void
created in the Qous's army by the transfer of
90,000 men to the service and pay of the East India
Company, in the ordinary way, so mach the
better. But if we cannot, the preservation
of India is not a question of money, bat
of national bower aid imperial integrity.
Already in this year's intimate, the Militia appears
for a sum of 430,0001. That, added to the
11,447,1131. already voted for the Land Forces of
the Crown, brings the cost of oar military establish-
ment for the current year up to the enormous sum
of 11,697,1131. But a Nation that freely doubled
its expenditure to preserve the equilibrium of Europe,
will not grudge its treasure or its blood to preserve

Altheogit the time for calling out the Militia may
not lave yet come, it is quite possible, in ewe the
reernitment do not go on successfully, or another
heavy demand for reinforcements for India be made,
that it may arrive. And in this view it is a wine and
proper precaution for the Cabinet to have considered,

the Statutes regulating that force. But if, during
the last war, the Legislature deemed it necessary to

widens and prudence, in the face of a long recess, of
a serious mutiny in India, and of absolute uncertainty
es to the extent of the demands that mutiny may in
the NOM make on ear military establishments, to
give the Crown power to embody the Militia, or part
of it, during this insurrection in India.
We trust that the necessity for this embodiment,
at least to any large extent, may not arise, that the
recruiting may go cm so vigorously as to wholly

introduced last night by Lord PANYVIE is tee of
which the country will heartily approve.

The peasengen think that the mutiny is not con-

They give some frightful details of atrocities com-
mitted by the mutineers. In Delhi six European
ladies had taken refuge in a room; one of them,
very young and beautiful, concealed herself under a
sofa. The other five were subjected to outrage by
the mutinous soldiery, and then beheaded. The
blood trickled under the sofa, and the young female
concealed there betrayed herself by uttering a shriek.
She was seized and taken to the harem of the King
of Delhi. This is considered a proof that the King
is in leaps with the mutineers.
1,700 armed men were found about the residence
of the King of Dude when he was taken prisoner,

and affability. I do not know whether it is true
that his reception at the Tuileries was rather frigid,
but I think I can venture to assert, from my private
knowledge, that any modification of rigour on
the part of the King of Naples will little avail to
change his relations with the Emperor of the
French.

TURIN, Jul.? 29.
Pio Nono is determined more than ever now to
visit Tuscany, where, however, nobody expecte him
or wishes for him, except the court and certain friars.
The ministers themselves do not care about it, and
Baldasseroni, for one, regrets it, because he fears,
and with reason, that the Pope's arrival will be a
signal for the destruction of the Leopoldine laws, and
for the conclusion of that Concordat which Rome
and the Grand Duke have for some years past held
in readiness. If the bigotry of that sovereign pre-
vails over public opinion, which is profoundly and
' universally hostile to sal a policy, the whole of
Italy except Piedmont will have gone backward at
I least a century, and the land of Sarpi, Tanucei, Tam-
burini, Bishop Ricci, and Oiannone, will, in the year
of grace 1857, behold the civil
.power again reduced
to subjection to the ecclesiastical power; and
it will be a miracle if, under those circumstances,
the Italians continue even to believe in God. Cer-
tainly the state, in this penineula, which most
abounds in afflictions, is the state of the Church.
This scourge of the reviving arrogance of the Roman
Curia has also been imposed on us by Austria,
whose pattern our Italian sovereigns are induced to
imitate. If the visit of Pio Nono to Florence does
take place, and is followed by the conclusion and
publication of this Concordat, then Tuscany will be
deprived even of the remnant of liberty of the press
which she has hitherto permed, and which may
be called the solitary Ideal saved out of her ship-
wreck in 1848. You may well conceive that the
people are much excited about all this, and that
they arc preparing for the Pope no very festive re-
ception. Yon know of the demonstration which was
intended to be made there some days ego, and which
the Government liked, because they. hoped it would
be directed only against the Massimo., and that it
would be favourable to absolute monarchy ; instead
of which, they were to have been reminded of the
constitution, and called upon to uphold the Leopoldine
laws. It appears that the hereditary prince, who
hopes to induce hie father to abdicate, was an
socomplice in this popular design. But perhaps
this is only an instance of the ancient tactics of
despotic courts, in which the hereditary princes
always wear the mask of liberals, and exhibit some
disposition to oppose the ministry, until the day when
they themselves become the masters of the country.
Here amongst us things go on quietly, and in the
accustomed way. It is not true, as many news-
papers have alleged, that Count Cavour intends to
transmit to the legations a declaratory note relative
to the recent events in Italy. Count Cavour
will only speak out if he should be provoked to do
so by the indiscreet accusations and crooked ma-
macres of a certain powerful neighbour of his. This
neighbour meanwhile deceives himself greatly if he
believes that our government is now better disposed
than it has been to an approximation towards, and a
reconciliation with, Vienna. Yet all the Austrian
journals have been ordered to give Europe to under-
stood r nosh ; but it is a mere farce, and one which
is kissed even before it is performed. The fact is,
that the late events in this peninsula have not made
any alteration in the principles or conduct of our
t. Proud of her own liberty, adequately
by excellent laws and by the general
at her people, Piedmont needed not to level
a slails musket in order to preserve tranquil-
lity, and save the country from serious disorders.
' Even if the tribunals should pass sentence
I of death upon some of the criminate about to undergo
their trials, the King's mercy will assuredly inter-
vene to prevent the capital sentence being carried
into effect. Piedmont, moreover, which rejoices and
is proud to extend a largo hospitality to exiles from
every part of Italy, will not forget to exercise her
generous anti fraternal compassion, and will continue
to protect and effectually to assist all emigrants who
do not infringe in any way the laws of this state.
If your government, therefore, is subjected to annoy-
ing and importunate solicitations from several Eu-
ropean states upon this subject, they will 'scarcely
get Sardinia to join them in such solicitations. I
can assure you that unless a great moral pressure
be brought to bear upon us, we shall remain silent.
I hope that in return for this noble, candid, and
liberal conduct on the part of the ministers of Victor
Emanuel, England will cease to beg and pray them
to come to a reconciliation with Austria, by re-
nouncing in a great measure their own dignity and
right. What I have already written to you, and
have still to write, relative to such a proposition, is
indeed bat too true ; with this view, not long ago,
IMO dim one despatch was received from Lord
aimitau, so anxious is the cabinet of St. James's
new to do a service to that of Vienna. No, the
moment foreign policy of your government is not the
true expression of public opinion in England. That
opinion, I admit, is still indefinite, and seems to
be a lofty aspiration after what is good, but still
devoid of clear and exact consciousness.
Assuredly, it aims at regenerating and recreating
your old diplomacy. God grant, for the glory of
England and the happiness of the world, that it may
know how to interpret the new ideas springing up
ire the hearts of our people. The time are beginning to
be hard with you. It is impossible for England not to
remember that the second partition of Poland, that
political misdeed from which so mach evil has pro-
' ceded, took place when you were at war with the
Indians and with your colonies in America. It behoves
you, therefore, seriously to take care of the peace of
'urope, in order that your adversaries may not one
day prevail, whilst you are occupying and sub-
duing the East. Nor will the peace of Eu-
rope become stable, unless it be founded on
the life of the nations and the goodness
of their governments. Who will accomplish this
work? Austria, peradventure, the implacable
enemy of liberties and nationalities. Or will it be
sufficient for this great end to prevent the union of
the Danubian Principalities, and delay the cutting
through of the isthmus of Sues? If I do not deceive
myself, there are far greater and better things to be
effected, among the chief of which is the putting an
end to the oppression of Italy. All the arts of de-
megegy may bring upon Piedmont some brief trou-
ble, sonic temporary disturbance, but not so much as
the shadow of danger. I doubt much whether the
other states of Italy can say as much, and every good
politician knows with what facility the tumults of the
Peninsula rebound in other countries. Potentates
should remember that in the year 1848 the Italian
reform movement, so admirable for its universality
and wisdom, was interrupted and perverted by the
obstinacy of the King of Naples, and that the bom-
bardment of Palermo was replied to by the revolution
of Paris, and that with Paris all Europe burst into
flames. Therefore, there meet either be radical re-
form in Italy, or the peace of Europe will be com-
promised.
But these matters we have already heard and read
more than once, and they ere not so pleasing
that it can be said of them, eleries repeat'?
placelmnt. I admit this, but Napoleon used
to call repetition the most efficacious of all
rhetorical figures. At this moment a letter
from Naples has leen communicated to me, in which
it is announced that on this occasion the King will
be clement, to a certain degree, with the prisoners,
and with those who are to be tried ; and also that
the Prince of Syracuse has even succeeded in making
proposals for a reconciliation with the Emperor of
the French. The letter is by no means official, and,
even were it such, I should be little inclined to be-
lieve either the one piece of information or
the other. It is not natural that the King, his
brother, should have entrusted him with so delicate
a commission. Ferdinand neither esteems nor
loves him, and they are nearly always at variance.
He sent him once as viceroy to Sicily, but in a few
hours deprived him of the high office and recalled
him hurriedly to Naples. The Prince of Naples
would like to play the sante game that Louis
Philippe played so alcilfully during the reign of the
elder branch of the Bourbons in France, but he has
neither the talent, nor the authority and tact ws-
ses.sid by the head of the House of Orleans. The
life of Leopold is very far from being exemplary,
and he hZe done nothing to amend the grave defects
of his education. He knows better than his
brother the thoughts, wishes, and wants of
the age, but forgets them when absorbed
in his love of play and pastime. He
designs and paints with talent, can converse with
literary men, loves travelling, speaks with animation

trains having brought a considerable number of pa-Knife's.
On. from Wellington, conducted by Mr. Holston, brooght
about 600 paasengens the greater port of whom were work-

Crooke., accompanying them. filorca's train from Bir-
mingham. Stafford, and other pl.e es on the London sad
North Western line brought about 300 passenger* ; a North
Staffordshire train from Congleton, the Potteries, and othe
places, brought 600 to 700; a Huddersfield And Leeds (Lou-.
don and North Western) train brought 200; and a trait
from Wakefield, Normanton, and other pietas on the Lame
shire and Yorkshire line, brought about 300 passengers.
Amongst the roost distinguished visitors yesterday at the
Art Treasures Palms, was her Msjesty the Queen of the
Netherlands and suite. who were received at the doors by
Mr. Deane and Colonel Hamilton, and remained in the Ex•
hilition some hours apparently taking great interest in the
works of art in the picture gallery.
The resources of Mr. Donald were put to a severe ten,
baring to provide lunch for the Queen of the Netherlands
end suite in one part of hit establishment, and dinnerin
upwards of 1,000 workpeople in another, in addition to the
calls made upon him in the ordinary firet and second-clan
refreshment rooms. The Queen of the Netherlands, fee
whom lunch had been ordered by the London and North

THE ACCIDENT TO MISS GILBERT IN HYDE.
PA BK.—We have much pleasure in stating that this grooms

her horse falling over the rails upon her in Rotten-row last
week, no we were informed wee the cats. That ale use
carried into St. George's Hospital ineensible and apparently
killed ia quite true, but upon examination both Mr. Hooper
and Dr. 'Tatum (who as well as Dr. Sutton end the other
gentlemen of the establishment showed her every attention)
found that there was no serious injury beyond slight esrneu-
*ion of the brain, and she was removed to her own house
the lame evening. She felt vet well next day that she ordered
the same home to be saddled, but Mr. Ilawkealey, her rat&
cal attendant, would not allow her to run such a risk ea
to get on horeeback for a few days, but she will be on
horseback again today. The real canter of the accident
was very singular. The horse was a high-courage(' bunter,
ridden for the first time by a lady. Ito went very quW4,
but on being cantered down acme to the rails on the left l
of Rotten-row, he started with the wrong foot. Mies Oft.
bert, wishing him to change hie leg, touched the nee We
rein lightly. The horse evidently thought be was to jug
the mile, at which he wee in hie stride sideways, but big

turned completely over, and tell on the other side of the mit
on Mies Gilbert. It was one of the moat frightful fella erg
seen, and her serape, to those who witnessed it, still ewer
incredible, but was owing to two canoes—her fine riding sed
nerve—f ir she never moved her hands or moved from Mt
seat until she struck the ground. The horse had turned es
completely over that the pommel of the saddle was the ki
point of contact; this WWI broken to pierce, but appeases
have thrown the home beyond Mimi Gilbert, and thus tad
her life.— Troves.
