LONDON, ...110N-DAI , 52, 1866.

On Saturday the festivities attending upon the
visit of the Volunteers to Belgium were brought to
a close by a grand banquet, which was distinguished
for its special magnificence. King LEOPOLD has cer-
tainly done his best to do credit to Belgian hospi-
tality, and to do honour to his guests. He has dis-
played a truly royal spirit in his arrangements, and
at the present time it is especially fortunate that
Belgium should be well represented before
the nations of the world. The enthusiasm
created among the Volunteers was very great
by the care and consideration bestowed upon '
their by the KING; and when his MAJESTY'S
health Was proposed, they all sprang up and cheered
vociferously. Amid the tumults and strife which
have so unhappiy raged of late upon the Continent
it is quite refreshing to meet with this agreeable and
striking change, How
tar wiser and happier are
those nations which content themselves with ex-
changing amenities courtesies, and only strive
in the honourable excitement of peaceful struggles
for superiority than those who rush wildly into
war, and are never happy but
when
tplanning
deed:, of spoliation, and thiukinn, o
can add to their wealtha„d what
Power.
It is long since so numerous an assembl-
ge Was en-
tertained by a monarch, amid it would have been
iwpossible to surpass in splendour and appropriate-
ness of elegance the royal banquet to the 'Volun-
teers at Brussels. In a few impressive words the
KING drank to the health of those Sovereigns who
were represented that day in Belgium, being
spired, as be said, by sentiments of friendship to-
wards them, and with the spirit of international
union which characterised their fetes. The speeches
delivered on the occasion were very interesting, and
did credit to those who had to come forward in a

conspicuous manner at this grand entertainment

colonel LOYD LINDSAY declared that they expo•
rieneed the greatezt delight at the hospitality Re-
corded to them by the generous people around them

Ile truly said that the spirit of good and free inter-
course in which they had met must tend to the im-
provement of all concerned in the affair, a more cor-
rect knowledge of their own defects, and of their
neighbours' good qualities. "We volunteers,'
said the gallant Colonel, " have learnt a les-
son during the past week, not from books
or newspapers, but from a nation itself. We have
read in those hearts that which England most ad-
mires—love of country, respect for their nationality,
and a determination to maintain it, even with their
lives." There is great power in this, and at the
present time no more fitting and appropriate lan-
guage could have been employed. We knew that
in consequence of the disturbances created by the
interference of Prussia that it has been suggested
in many quarters that no small European State can
be considered safe, and hints of a direct nature
have been given about Belgium. We know no
better or more fitting reply to make to these prog-
nosticators of evil than the words uttered by Colonel
LINDSAY, when he said that " it is not mountain
passes or mighty fortifications which secure the in-
dependence of a people; it is respect for their insti-
tutions and love for their Sovereign." 'We feel
convinced that if danger assailed Belgium and its
security was threatened that no fault would have
to be found with its people for their want of zeal and
lack of courage to protect their rights. Also we
are sure that they would have the sympathy of this
country, and we do not believe that either Prussia or
France would seek to outrage the feelings of
Englishmen by making an attack on our ally. It is
indeed most gratifying that the late festivities
should have come off in so satisfactory a style ; but
even more than that is it important that a good
understanding should exist between this country
and Belgium. The other nations of the Con-
tinent will not be slow to take the hint, and
if there should have been any foundation for
the sinister rumours lately afloat, now in all proba-
bility the eTil intentions will be abandoned. If, on
the contrary, their existence should have been illu-
sory, the display of Saturday will tend to prevent
the usurpers and oppressors of the Continent con-
sidering Belgium as fair game for their efforts and
an easy prey for their spoils.
No doubt this interchange of friendly sentiments
at Brussels may in the end prove of service to the
cause of peace and good will. As the KING ob-
served, " Belgium, which in former times was a
cause of disunion among the European Powers, has
now become the tie which unites them ;" and

it may be of great importance in more ways
than one for this affair to have been so eminently
successful as it has been. The representatives of the
foreign nations there, and the distinguished visitors
had an opportunity of seeing our Volunteers, and
judging for themselves of their fitness for service
and military prowess. Very likely they saw and
heard more than was quite agreeable, but at any
rate it is a matter of rejoicing that our Volunteers
should have displayed themselves to so much ad-
vantage in a foreign country, and proved in an un-
mistakable manner that if need arose they are ready
to do the work they have set themselves, and
defend their country in a spirit worthy of their
forefathers of renown.

The annual meeting of the Hinckford Conserva-
tive Club, held on Saturday last, possessed some-
thing more than the strictly local interest of such
affairs,from the presence of a member of the Govern-
ment. Mr. Do CANE does not, it is true, hold a
place in the Cabinet, but the office which he fills at
the Admiralty is by no means unimportant, and he
is usually regarded as one of our rising politicians.
There is besides just now no small amount of
curiosity felt regarding the intentions and opinions
of the new Administration. The great question of
Reform is still unsettled, and though Lord DERBY,
warned by the example of preceding Governments,
distinctly declared that he wculd. give no pledge on
the matter, there is a growing conviction among all
classes that no Cabinet can long hold office which
refuses to deal with it. If Lord DERBY were a mere
locum tenens, if he accepted office only to give his
opponents time to recover themselves and collect
their scattered forces, he might put aside the consi-
deration of this problem altogether ; but if he aims,
as he does aim, at governing the country and
manfully confronting the difficulties of the time, it
will not be possible for him to avoid all considera-
tion of Reform. The representation of the country
is in an anomalous condition, and although the
charges brought against our House of Commons as
a whole have been unfair and exaggerated, there is
sufficient ground for complaint to render some
alteration absolutely necessary. The great evil of

the system is the mode of eleetion,niontditshpeuteahbale-
racter of the representatives ; but it is
that there is much discontent respecting the inequa-
lities of the franchise. Admitting the present class
of members to be unexceptional, and the mode of
election t 6 be all that is desirable, there are still
hundreds of thousands who want to have a voice
in the matter, who feel that they have as good a
right as others to take part, if not in the delibera-
tions of the Legislature, at least in the selection of
representatives. This is a very unsatisfactory state
of things, especially when there are always those
who for their own purposes are eager to fan the
flame of discontent, and echo the murmurs of the
disaffected. We arc therefore glad to see indi-
cations in the political horizon that Lord
DERBY is not unwilling to give the sub-
ject careful consideration, although he may
wisely enough decline to bring forward another
hasty and ill-considered measure without testing the
feeling °Lille House and the country. Mr. D u CANE,
in his speech at Castle Hedringham, entered largely
upon the question, and so far as his own opinions
are concerned, he boldly declared that he was anxious

and Billing to see a fair and comprehensive measure

of reform passed through the House of Commons.
" I believe," he said, "that if a measure of reform

could be passed, which, without placing the balance
of political power in any one class, should provide
for a fair representation of the existing institutions
of the country, and at the same time offer more
opportunities than at present exist for the industri-
ous, intelligent, and saving portion of the artisan
class to enter into our electoral system—such a
measure would not only widen the area, but would
at the same time materially strengthen the founda-
tions of our representative government." Moderate
men of all parties, and especially those who are

really anxious to see this great question settled on
a satisfactory basis may well subscribe to this theory,
and must certainly echo Mr DUCANE'S assertion, that
if the Government see their way to the passing of
such a measure they would be very wise to avail them-
selves of the opportunity and settle the question.
Mr. Du CANE, however, expressed a very earnest
hope that they would not approach the topic of
Reform Without the conviction that the measure
they intend to propose wonld have a chance of

would be rather to obstruct than to assist the pro-
gress of the country. There are, as he justly
observed, a host of other important ques-
tions waiting for deliberation and
decision,

colonies, the state of the metropolitan workhouses,
-the perplexities attending national education, and
the most efficient means of national defence, are
amply sufficient, one would think, to give occupa-
tion to a good many sessions. The continual post-
ponement of these great questions is in fact an addi-
tional reason why it is highly desirable that this
troublesome question of Parliamentary Reform
should be got out of the way. It has too long served
as au excuse for indolent governments, and has
of late co,npletely engrossed the attention of ener-
getic and public-spirited men, both in and out of
:Parliament. We cannot afford to go on wasting
session after session in the discussion of what is,
after all, only the means to an eud. A Reformed
Parliament will have its work before it, and those
who anticipate the immediate disappearance of all
abuses, and the arrival of a political millennium as
soon as we get a reduction of the franchise,
a redistribution of seats, and the ballot, are
likely to find themselves very grievously mistaken.
Reform is stopping the Parliamentary highway,
and a whole crowd of neglected measures and post-
poned difficulties are accumulating in its rear. We
shall have a complete dead lock if we do not take
care, and it will be in the interests of all parties to
arrive at some definite conclusion. If Lord DERBY
will intimate that he intends to give the subject
fair and impartial consideration, and will give the
house and the country ample thae to consider
and discuss his bill when he decides upon it, he will
do wisely. The question can then be laid aside for
a time, and the other great national problems receive
the attention to which they are entitled. We can-
not hope or expect to see a Reform Bill carried
next Session, whoever is in power. It will be
enough if it be introduced before the House
again breaks up, and supposing the immediate
return of a Liberal Ministry to office this is
all they could attempt. Many of the imperial
questions referred to above imperatively demand
attention, which we hope will be no longer withheld
from them ; and though a Reformed Parliament
might possess some advantages in dealing with
them, their consideration cannot be postponed for
two or three sessions without serious evil. There
will be work enough for the reformers and the
reformed for a good many years to come, so there is
no reason to alarm ourselves about not leaving them
work enough to do.
Mr. Du CANE, iu the course of his remarks upon
Reform, threw out a very valuable hint, which we
hope some of the more extreme Radicals will not refuse
to take. He asserted that the worst detractors of the
working classes were to be found in their own orators
and writers. When he found the organs of the press
which represent the working men upholding the
unruly mob who broke into Hyde-park and assaulted
the police as peaceful and orderly citizens, and the
Secretary of the Trades' Union of Sheffield alleging
the withdrawal of a man from his union as a pal-
liation of an atrocious outrage, he felt the work-
ing classes as a body were libelled by their own
friends, and he did not wonder that' others beside
bigoted Tories hesitated to admit them to political
power. This is in fact a remnant of that old bitter
party feeling which draws a broad line between two
forms of policy, and everything on the one side is
justifiable, everything on the other atrocious. Plain
right and wrong, however, will not change sides to
meet the exigencies of party, and Englishmen at
large like fair play in politics as in everything else.

The French EMPEROR has left Biarritz, and on
his return t 3 Paris we may look for some change
from the dull state into which Continental politics
have fallen. The funeral of M. THOUVENEL is to
be performed in a suitable manner at the public
expense, and this because of his distinguished ser-
vices to his country, as we are informed by an Im-
perial Decree. It is satisfactory to find, from the
latest accounts, that the health of the EMPEROR is now
very good. At anytime he could ill have been spared
from the direction of affairs, but just now the conse-
quences would be deplorable. It has been said that
the French Chambers will be assembled a month or
two earlier than usual, in order that their sitting
may be over before the Exhibition commences, but
there is really no valid reason to give for this step
being taken. It is also hinted that changes will be
made as to the right of address, &c., but we must
hope that this report is without foundation. It
would be unwise to curtail any of the privileges
now accorded to the Senate, and give great
occasion to the enemies of the Imperial Court
to prefer their charges and make unpleasant
comments. We hear that the Plebiscitum
has commenced in Venice with the greatest enthu-
siasm, and the inhabitants have already sent an
address to the KING, so that in a short time we
shall no doubt receive the welcome intelligence
that the national work has been in a great measure
consolidated in Italy. The fate of Saxony is yet in
abeyance, but we may now venture to hope that the
time expended in the settlement of affairs may be
a positive and decided gain to that kingdom ; and,
if so, there will be one change for the better in the
programme drawn up by the implacable Count Bts-
MARCK. Ills illness, whether real or imaginary, has
no doubt been of great service to the cause of Saxon
independence, and enabled the advocates of fair
play to have a chance of being heard.

From a telegram received this day, we hear that
at a meeting held on Saturday at Glynn, Mr. Pope
Hennessy was unanimously approved as a candi-
date for the county of Wexford. He is also actively
supported by the dean and vicar-general of the
diocese.

LAMBETH-BRIDGE TOLLS.—On Saturday the lease
of the tolls for Lambeth-bridge for the ensuing year
was put up to public auction at the Westminster Palace
Hotel. A statement was placed in the hands of the bidders
to the effect that the tolls for the past year amounted to
£2,788 14s. 3d., and that the amount received had regu-
larly increased at the rate of £2OO per annum. After a
very slow competition the maximum bid reached was
£2,500. The agent for the bridge company then said
the company's reserve bid was .£2,800, upon which he
could not abate more than £3O. No further bid was made,
and the lease of the tolls is therefore retained by the
company.

COLDBATH-FIELDS PRISON.—There are at pre-
sent upwards of 1,700 prisoners in the House of Correc-
tion, Coldbath-fields. So large an increase has there been
in the number of prisoners committed from the county of
Middlesex That batches have been sent to the Nottingham
and York gaol; their support being paid for by the county
of Middlesex. Notwithstanding this, it is a fact that in
some wards at Coldbath-fields as many as 110 prisoners are
huddled together in hammocks at night, with only a soli-
tary gaoler to keep watch and ward over them. Anything
in the shape of overcrowding and the generation of foul
air which has been brought to light in connection with
... e
casual wards of workhouses can be matched, if not e
ceeded, in the House of Correction.—Surrey Guardian.

MISTAKEN IDENTITY.—Seven years ago there
lived at Handford, near Trentham, a working man
named Charles Carnall, who, from some unexptained rea-
son, deserted his wife. Thinking that the parish officers
would be better able to find him than herself, the wife ap-
pealed to the authorities, and eventually became an inmate
of Stone Union. While there a man, unknown, died at a
lodging-house in the last-named town, and his body was
taken to the workhouse. As the room in which it was
placed required cleaning, the woman Carnal! was sent to
clean it, and, naturally enough, looked at the corpse. She
had no sooner glanced at it than she exclaimed, " Bless
us ; this is my husband." Two of her brothers-in-law wore
at once sent for, and they were of the same opinion ; as,was
a woman named Phillips. Carnal!, it appears, had lost one
eye, and had a swelling at the back of his neck caused by
the kick of a horse some years previously. The corpse
was said to be thus deformed. Mrs. Carnal! has since lived
in Stone as a widow, where one of the brothers also re-
sides. As the latter was sitting in his house on Thursday
night, to. his horror the supposed dead man knocked at his
door, and immediately presented himself, alive and well.
The man remained with his relations during the night, and
disappeared next morning.

CORRESPONDENCE FROM PARIS.

(FRO3I OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.)
PARIS, Sunday Evening.

The iilemoriul Di plomatique contains the follow-
ing important information iu regard to Italy and
the Pope. I have reason to believe that the par-
ticulars are authentic :

"The approaching expiration of the Convention
of the 15th Septerrber naturally diverts public
attention and the solicitude of the Cabinet of the
Tuileries to the question of the future existence of
the temporal power of the Pope.
_ _ _

" The French Government has renewed its decla-
ration that it wishes for and will maintain that
sovereignty. On condition of certain internal re-
forms, combined with the establishment of regular
relations between Rome and Italy, France is ready
to guarantee to the Pope the integrity of his pre-
sent States, and the full independence of his double
sovereignty.
" It is in this spirit that the French Cabinet has
expressed itself to Rome, again insisting upon the
necessity of an identical policy between Italy, de-
finitively united, and the Holy See. We do not
know what reception the Court of Rome has given
to these propositions, but there is no doubt that in
its reply expression will be given to the urgent kite-
rest which the Pope takes in the question of the
definitive security of the Papacy against revolu-
tionary attempts in Italy.
" We are enabled to add that the French Go-
vernment has communicated its views in this respect
to the Catholic Powers by a circular despatch of
recent date."

M. Dweny, the Minister of Public Instruction,
in inaugurating the opening of an establishment
for secondary instruction at Mont-de-Marsau, made
an eloquent appeal in favour of the general educa-
tion of the people. M. Duruy, in these concise but
lucid terms, explained the general principles upon
which the Government acted in regard to public
education. " Moral and religious instruction,
French language and literature, history, geography,
cyphering, bookkeeping—these were the common
points of education which ought to be known by all.
The son of the merchant, the son of the person en-
gaged in industry of any kind, and the son of the
agriculturist might add, according to his want, the
living languages, drawing, the practical application
of mathematics, chemistry, and natural history,
which of itself furnished the materials for all the
useful arts and the most beautiful forms for the
development of the plastic arts."
A letter from Cherbourg, dated the 19th inst.,
says :--" Two ships of war, hoisting the flag of the
United States of America, anchored yesterday in
our roads. One is the ironclad ship Augusta, the
other the far-famed Miantonomah. The two latter
were last from Kiel, and there are now four Ame-
rican ships in our roads. The Miantonomah excites
great curiosity. The officers are very courteous and
explanatory to visitors. The vessel has two enor-
mous turrets of strange shape. Its formidable ar-
tillery is composed of four pieces, the cannon balls
for which weigh 4641b5. One novelty respecting it
is that, besides being cased with very heavy iron
plates, it is protected by being almost entirely im-
mersed in the water. The officers say that their
submarine habitation does not produce the least
inconvenience.

The Moniteur states that, according to its news
from Vienna of Friday, the surrender of Venice and
Venetia to Italy by Austria took place on that day
under the most satisfactory circumstances. General
Lebceuf, the representative of France, gave to the
Venetian municipality the city which he had re-
ceived from the Austrian General Mcering. At the
same moment Gen. Alemann, Governor of Venice,
for the Emperor of Austria, quitted the city with
his staff in the midst of the most respectful manifes-
tationa of the inhabitants. An hour afterwards the
tricolored Italian flag was hoisted on two masts
placed before the church of St- Marc. A salvo of

101 guns was fired, and this ceremony, accompanied
by the enthusiastic cheers of the people, hailed the
restoration of Venice to the kingdom of Italy.
Gazette des Nobles, of Moscow, bewails the appear-
ance of cholera in that city in this aristocratic spirit.
It says—" Hitherto, thanks to the visible protection
of Providence, the cholera had hitherto only at-
tacked the lower classes. But now this terrible
scourge has appeared among the bourgeoisie and
even among the nobility." The cholera evidently
has no respect for persons, at all events in Russia.
The ex-Bishop of Marseilles, Monseigneur Patrice-
Francois-Marie OlErnice, has just died. It was a
very short time ago that his successor was installed.
His infirmities compelled him to request that his
successor should be appointed.
The last day's races at Chantilly on Thursday
were spoiled by the bad weather, but the running
took place in the order announced. The Paris
Particuliar, 3,000 f., was won by Due de Bourgogne.
The Prix de la Loire (gentlemen riders), by La
Fournie. The Prix de Verberie, by Little Lady.
The Prix du Fay (300 f.), by Canotiere; Floren-
tine, 2 ; Gaulois, 3. This was the most important
race of the day, from the high estimation of the
horses engaged. It was very eagerly contested.
The Prix de Chateau Laffitte, 4,000 f., was won by
Grande Dame. The Prix de Bowye, 2,000 f., was
won by Mdlle. de Vavoville.
A man of great celebrity in his day, M. Leger,
died on Thursday at Ville d'Avray, near Sevres, in
his 90th year. He was only a tailor, but he was the
tailor of great personages, of Napoleon the First,
for instance. One day he remarked in a joking
mood that General Kleber, at his death, owed him
for a waistcoat which he made for him. M. Leger
died very rich. For many years past, on the anni-
versary of his birthday he gave a grand fete, to
which his friends and neighbours were invited. He
also made presents to his servants on that day, and
gave money to the poor.
His Holiness Pope Pius IX., who has a " hand
open as day to melting charity," has, says the
Malheur, "in his solicitude to assist all misery,
charged the Apostolical Nuncio at Paris, Mon-
seigneur Chigi, to place the sum of 2,000 f. at the
disposal of the commission appointed to receive sub-
scriptions for the sufferers by the inundations."
In the Rue Laffitte, at the angle of the Rue de
Provence, there is now in course of construction
one of the most splendid hotels of which Paris can

boast. " Thereby hangs a tale." The for-
tune of Whittington was made by a cat.
Prussia dominates over Germany from the influence
of a needle, and the founder of the great establish-

ment of which I speak owes his fortune to a pin.
In the time of the first Republic, M. Perregaux was
at the head of Finanee. One morning a genteel,
intelligent-looking young man came from his native
village to seek his fortune in Paris, and with fear
and timidity solicited a place as clerk in M. Perre-
gaux's office. The financial director was courteous
to him, but being overwhelmed with such solicita-
tions he dismissed him without holding out any
hope. The young man left with a heavy heart. As
he crossed the court-yard he stooped. It was to
pick up a pin. The Minister, who was sitting at
the window of his cabinet, saw the act, and having
previously a predilection in favour of the young
man, he opened the window and called him
back. The Minister thought the act, indicative
of frugality and the sort of intelligence required in
financial matters. The next day, therefore, the
young man became a clerk in the office at 1200 f.
a year. Ten years afterwards he was clerk in a
bank, then a partner, and in process of time a
Minister. As a Minister and financier one dynasty
fell before him, and he was able to create a new
dynasty. In one sense he swayed the destiny of
France. This man was Jacques Laffitte, the founder
of the great banking establishment, for which the
house of which I speak is now'being built. lie was
also the youth who picked up the pin as he left, with
grief and disappointment, the office of the great
financier of the first Republic. One hears of
things " not worth a pin." The "frugal mind" of
Jacques Laffitte was worth a pin.
The weather to-day and yesterday has been warm
and beautiful.
