The French squadron was to leave Salamis, for Besika Bay, on the morning of the 11th inst. The tinglish fleet left Malta on the Sth. The two forces | ¢d with suspicion at the formation of the present ad- | axd upon all will meet in the Dardanelles. It is eaid that the Divan had rejected the Russian ultimetom. =. We learn from Berne, June 14, that the Grand Council had resolved to resist, at any cost, the unjust demands of foreign powers. News has reached Switzerland from Milan of violent agitation in that city, in consequence of another appeal to the armies made by Mazzini. To prepare against all eventualities, the Austrian gov- ernment has declared a concentration of troops at Gallarate, between Milan and Arona, not far from the Piedmontese frontier. There is all but a panic on the Paris Bourse. __ Fifteen days more, says the Czar, as if very loth to begin the fight without giving himself and his ad- versary every fair chance of an honorable retreat. But meanwhile, the Russian force is now in occupa- tion of the Moldavian principalities; and where a Russian once effects an entry it is not easy to dis- lodge him; besides which, the Moldavian territory is @ vantage ground from which he may more success- fully conduct his future operations. True, the occu- pation of that country is not tantamount toa decla- ration of war, any more than the Sultan’s introdac- tion of a part of his fleet into the Black Sea; but it is not difficult to see the wishes of the Czar and his troops. Never were grapes of Ishcol sweeter. than would be to them a few slices from poor Turkey. Nevertheless, they will be disappointed this time, and the Sultan will enjoy a brief respite. England and France are, on this point at least, most cordially agreed to defend the integrity of Turkey, and assist the Sultan in his hour of need against Cossack inva- sion. Austria, too, has proffered her mediation, as well she might for her own interests; and the con- sequence of these united movements will now most probably be, that the Czar will avail himself of some convenient pretext—some paltry, valueless conces- peer sage ia himself ot the war by a side wind. tsa it connected with Sree are tan’s dominions; but neither the Greeks nor eae nians to Russia, either er constitution of their , their political institutions, or their ,commercial interests, nor has she a shadow of right ‘to interfere.

On , the Hon. H. Berkeley, M. P. for Bris- tol, brought forward his motion on the impertant allot question; and certainly it ever there was a | @ time when such a mode of election was desirable | it is at the present, when revelations so disgraceful have been made respecting election bribery in all sorts of boroughs, net only close, but open and soi- | sisant liberal, as Hull and Liverpool, which appear not one whit purer or more free from corruption than Chatham, St. Albans or Canterbury. Many of hes were excellent, and, wh.t is curious, the present Sir Robert Peel has become a convert and | warm advocate for the ballot. The division wasa | singular one; ayes 172, noes 232, making a ma- | ity of 60 against the motion. The former of course ‘wepresent the liberal party, and hence the majority is made up of those who oppose it, because it dis- favors their own interests, namely, the tories and | mministerialists; in fact, had the tories not voted, | the ministerialists been allowed to form their | own individual decision, apart from Russell party | interests, the ballot would have been carried bya large majority. Indeed, as it was, ten members-of | the government veted for it and against ministers. | Bat f it be really an open question, why were not | Sir Wm. Molesworth, Mr. C. Villiers, Mr. Bernal O3- | borne, Sir A. Cockburn, and Mr. Strutt, all ballot men, in their places, aud ready to oppose their more | F associates? Neurly all the representatives of of town constituencies voted for the motion; and of* the metropolitan members only two actually voted against, Sir. de Lacy Evans, Lord Robert Gros- venor, and Mr. Masterman being absent. Lord John Rouseell is ag strongly opposed as ever to the measure, and he was supported by Mr. Sidney Herbert and the Lord Advocate of Scotland. Again, therefore, have the representatives of the people of Engiand done dishonor to themselves by refusing to Pe the only really effective measure for al moti for bribery ; but no matter— | whether they like it or not—whether it suits or does not suit their present interests and chance of elec- by free and unbiased constituencies, the ques- tion will ultimately be settled by its passing into a law, and every election only hastens the arrival of that much wished-for period. The pretexts for oppo- sition thereto are weak, paltry and pusrile—the rea- sons for it morally strong, every year increasing in | power, and must finally prove irresistible.

But the press, for- | jooth, has indulged in unfounded calumnies! Why, that any writer of moderate ‘sense and acquaintance with recorded facts should address himself to the @uperfiuous taek of inventing charges against nunne- ies is as incredible and ridiculous as are the tales re- eri Pree by Cardinal Wiseman in London of a idden miracle. Why, a man need only take up oe or four of the most accredited Romanist works, Yritten by zealots of their own party, and he will find al ly more than ever appeared in a London newspaper. Why, if they, the worthies of that meet- 4 wish to be convinced on this matter, let them take up a single volume of “ Liorente’s History of Inquisition,” and they will know far more about nunneries than Blanco White or Dr. Camming ever revealed—far more than any English journalist has ever yet dared, for decency’s sake, to expose to Besides, these gentry need scarcely be told that there are visitations of our own English and Irish nunneries reported by staunch Roman Catho- lics, acting under a Cardinal and all the Romish hierarchy, which are readily accessible, and therein | read truths ten times as profligate and dis- as even the most prurient and hostile ima- zation could invent. t has happened in these recently, as well as in former times, will ; and it is high time that forced re- 5 t with a wickedness equalled only by that of Sodom and Gomorrah, should for very hu- manity’s sake be brought to the light of day, and gubjected to the most strict and rigorous system of munth of June is generally a season in which | the aristocracy are in the full tide of gayety and | dissipation.

The Chancellor of the Exchequer is a wily, subtle man, and he is act- ing in concert with the Bishop of Oxford, who, as all the world knows, is a very subtle prelate. It is vei much to be feared, therefore, that aided by Monsell, the apostate, Lord Aberdeen, and the rest of his Puseyite allies in the cabinet, Gladstone and the Bishop will prove far too strong for little Lord John, who has already allowed himself to be dragged through the dirt, and compelled to eat humble pie, in the shape of an apology for his Protestant speech, uttered in the heat of debate. We are not ultra Pro- testants, or by any means disposed to be illiberal to the Roman Catholics, but their aggressive spirit and the brow-beating violence of their priesthood make it absolutely necessary for Protestants to make a resolute stand—pro aris et focis. Ever since 1688 we have been a Protestant people, ruled by Protestant governors, and however clever Mr. G! ne and his pro-Popish allies and backers may be, they are not the men for the times, and be trusted as the guardians of the Protestant principles of the crown. The Hampton race bgp ag (Po in attraction for veritable Lendoners to the tby of Epsom, took place on Wednesday and yesterday; and as the ‘weather was exceedingly fine there was a very no- merous and motley assemblage of all sorts of people, from the nobleman and aristocrat in his fourdacband drag, or carriage and four, to the humble tradesman in his tax-cart, and the costermonger or mechanic in no carriage atall. The racing is never of a ve first-rate character here, and yesterday's doings forai racing was not first-rate, there was no lack of shows, and all other sorts of amusements, to please the cock- neys; and really all persons wore so glad a smile on their faces, that they must have been amused to their hearts’ content. pT per :— Jullien: Bao arrived in London from his continental tour.

Volumes might be written. on the horrors of matrimony; thrilling novels might be written to show that some one party was most ili-treated, and lived miserable and died fesrfully. Now suppoce they succeeded by such agitation and such pictures of horrors and evils in abolishing matrimony, what then? Would they introduce any better system? Would they dixpore the hearts of men and women to love one another better after the abolition? There must be matrimony in some shape, under some name, as there must be servitude under some name or shape. . Wi they give a better law than ¢he law of God, which is ready over all?

She is, both by birth and in appearance, a decided, unmistakeable negress, | born of a full African father and a hali-caste mother, | and she was herself born and brought up in slavery, though liberated in her childhood. On the death of her mistress, this young person’s musical talents were brought into public notice, as well as to a cer- tain degree cultivated by proper vocal instruction; | but it is quite evident that she has yet much, very much, to learn, ere she be able to Vie with the ac- complished singers of Europe. Nevertheless, as a begress, she is a prodigy, and cannot be listened to without great pleasure, though it may still be ques- | | tioned whether it would not have been better for her to have acquired more musical skill and knowledge ere she ventured to stand the test of a fastidious, nice-eared British audience. Her voice isa con- tralto of great clearness and of very mellow tone in the upper registar, while in the lower it is full, reso- | nant ahd powerful, though occasionally somewhat masculine. She is more peculiarly effective in ballad music, and more particularly in pathetic ballads. Her “Cradie Song,’ by Wallace, and “‘Home, Sweet Home,” found a rapturons encore; and, on the whole, she was received with great applause. The pro- gramme, however, was rich to profusion, quite inde- yee of the Black Swan; and when we say that Madame Faranti, Miss Dolbi, Herr Brandt, Sims | | Reeves, Herr Pischek and Gardoni were among the | vocalists, it will be evident that this was a most ex- | cellent and attractive entertainment. | The second concert of the American Biack Swan took place on Wednesday, in the large room of Exeter Hall. Mr. Sims Reeves, the great English tenor, was the attractive star of the evening, and took the room completely by storm in Mr. J. L.

Paris seems to have been destroyed, or shaken, at least, by an eaithquake. The Crystal Palace, atthe Carré Marigny, Champs Elysée, is already above the level of the ground. all the walls and vaults are perfected, and the whole building is a metre high on the level of the earth. The pedestals and columns of the building will be built with granite of pink color, the same stone with which the Mayor’s Hotel and Cathedral church of Strasbourg have been built.

Four bulls of the hugest size were killed by the Spanish “ bull fighters.’ On Sunday last, two American gentlemen—Mr. D. W--—, ot New York, and Mr. Q——, of Boston, made a bet with a few of their friends that they would make the tour of the fortifications of Paris in less than ten hours. According to arrangements, they started at five o’clock P.M. from outside of the walls, at the Barrier of Clichy, and they arrived at the place of their departure at five o'clock in the afternoon, having had three hours to repose and to take their food. Thus they had run the forty-two milee in nine hours and a few minutes, a feat which Gildersleeve himself, the celebrated American run- ner, would have accomplished with much difficulty. A very cui discovery has been made in the church of St. Eustache by the architect of the govern- | ment, consisting of a series of tings of the Gothio epoch, painted on the walls which had been white- washed by the Vandall of the last century. All these pictures are to be cleaned, and will be the most nificent ornaments of that church. ing of Prussia has ordered that an immense column le with glass, stri with white and blue lines, and adorned with a pedestal, and top of a pillar of gilt bronze, to be placed in the garden of the Church of the Peace at Potsdam, near Berlin. This new monument, which has been invented by Mr. Heese, architect, will be supported by a pedestal of white Carrara marble, and on the summit of the colomn, there will be placed a superb statue repre- senting the genius of Peace, by Rauch. The tax imposed upon dogs, at Berlin, which had amounted, during last year to 5,088 thalers (20,000 francs) amounted this year to 25,000 thalers (which is 96,000 francs.) It has been generally remarked that all these dogs belong to poor people, who know scarcely in the morning how they wil pay their food during the day. ‘The enlistments for the Mormon religion are daily increasing in Denmark.

On Thursday last, June 29, a trottixg purse of $1,000, mile beats, best three im five, in harness, was contended for ever the above course by the victorious Flora Temple and Black Douglas, a celebrated Philadelphia horse, whose name has been lately changed frem that of Goliah. The race did not give the satisfaction anticipated, as Flera won too easily and spoiled the sport. Black Douglas was lame, and in consequence broke up badly in each heat He is a very fast horse, but having a ring-bone on bis near fore foot his speed at times was much re- terded. The hardsess of the track waa rather against him, yet still he convinced all who witnessed this rac” that when free from lameners he will be an ugly e4 tomer for the best on the turf to deal with. ‘There are a great mavy extraordinary trotter-%™ Long I-land this season, and they are multiplying <t aa incal- culable rate, This has portially been caus4 by the great attention paid of late years to bre-“ing.

His fleetness of foot has been gradually increas- ing for some years, owing to judicious breeding and training, until now it has neatly arrived at its highest pitch, which haa been shown by the extraordiaary time made thisrearon. ‘Thirty years since a three minute trotting horse, urder the saddle, was considered a para gon of Bpeed. But without the waste of more words, ink and paper, we will go on with the race. There was a good atten- dance at the track, the majority of whom were men of means, and the betting became very brisk during the usual preparations for the start. Flora was the favorite at 100 to 50, 100 to 40, and in some instances at 100 to.30, Douglas won the pole, and at the start took the lead, beating Flora a length to the quarter pole, in thirty- six seconds. Down the backstretch Flora could not reach him, and he passed the half mile pole in 1:12! aud carried Flora off her feet on the lower turn. When she broke up she lost half a dozen lengths or more, and the black horse appeared to have everythirg in his favor to win the heat; but before he got round the turn he also went up, and before he was right again Flora was in front eighty yards. He managed to save his distance, and that was all. Flora came to the stand at a very very moderate gait, mabing the hest in 2:32, In the second heat they went round the turn together, lapped, and passed the quarter pole in thirty-six seconds; but in afew moments afterwards the black broke, and Flora went about her business alone, passing the half wile pole if 1:13, thirty yards in front of her unfortu- nate follower, and so on to the end, making the heat the same as before, 2:32. Douglas broke up several times, and would close up his gaps finely, but he made toomany to be successful. He cut his quarter in this heat In the third heat they went nicely ound the turn, but the ring-bone being in the way he broke up, and Flora led him five or nix lengths to the quarter pole, in thirty- eight seconds, and made the half iu 1:15, the biack break- ing badly two or three times throwing his chance, en- tirely out.

This wet | temperature is much injurious to the crops, and the cursed owdium tuckerti, a sort of mushroom of the | worst kind, has, it appears, made its appearance in | the fields of corn, rye, and other grain.

Decidedly, Dame Nature is an old woman, full of rheumatism, pimples, eruptions, boils, and other cutaneous af- | fections. How long will she live? The Parisian life becomes to be dull and tedious, and if the Boulevards were not crowded in the even- | ing with foreigners, of all countries, passing through the city, or calling to pay a short visit here, Paris | would be deserted. All the distinguished members of society have left their hotels, to spend their summer leisure hours either in their chateaux, or at the different watering places of Germany, or sea | bathing in the channel. The only place where some fun and amusement is to be had is now at the Bois | de pene, in the afternoon, or at the public gar- | dens, in the evening. | Mobille, the Chateau des Fleurs, the Chateau | d’Amiéres and the Ranelagh, are the rendezvous of all the “ gilt” (by chemical process, a /a Ruolz) | youths of: Paris, and of many strangers of all coan- | tries. Asa matter of course, the Americans are in | great number at all those places of amusement, and | more than any other people, our countrymen are fond of those loose pleasures which are so easy to be obtained in the mighty city of Paris. On Tuesday last, which was a gala aie at Mobille, the crowd was immense, and I had the pleasure of mecting there with several beautiful ladies from American cities, who bad come thither to have a sight incog- nito. A very funny scene took place, which is worth being related. A gentleman from the States, well known in the vag} circles in New York and Paris, had come to Mobille with the intea- tion of making love to a “‘ beauty,” and be loved b: her. He met there one of his friends, who had al- ready made himself acquainted with a “lioness” of the place, and who, after having offered her ice creams, flowers, and some presents, was somewhat entitled to a prize.

It is @ party, notwithstanding its doctrines, iden- tical in prisciple with Mrs B Stowe's party. Like it, it profeares universal reform—it i» going to remodel mankind and renew the face of society According to it all are wrong but themselves, and they if they are followed willmakéhil right, The principles of the two parties, in condenration, are the following, viz. “We are the good people; we are the pure people; {f you join ux you belong to the good people; if you are | not with us you belong to the damned.”’ The aetivity and business of this party comptat in find- | ing fault with and declaimipg against all mankind but themselves.

As soon as the news was spread around, the ladies wished to know which was M. ; and Mr. —— having been pointed out to them, they began to pelt him with lumps of carth, stones, and other missiles.

This affair has been the cause of much laughter among the Americans in Paris. "the grand exhibition of flowers, made by the Societé d’Horticulture, of the Department of La Seine, was opened on Friday last, and visited durin; five days by all the amateurs of floral presents. It offered a magnificent sight, and the Emperor as well as the Empress visited it on Friday. The beauty and species of flowers exhibited were quite re- markable, and the egg woe awarded to the gardeners consisted of two hundred gold, silver and bronze medals, which were distributed with much liberality and accuracy. My readers are per- haps not aware that the trade of flowers in the different markets of Paris amount to about 0,000 francs a week, without mentioning in that number the sale of flowers bought at the different gardens of Paris and its neighborhood. The only vale of rose trees amourited to 1,500,000f. a year, and that of rose flowers and rose trees in bloom, upwards of 3,000,000 francs. ‘The sale of fruits and vezeta- bles iu the markets of Paris is reported to amount to 24,000,000f.

This new accession of dignity has given general sat- isfaction to all the friends of Sir Joseph Olitfe, whether English or American. Mr. Corbyn, the agent and’ stage manager of Mr. Niblo,is in Paris, looking out for “ stars,” and I know it as a positive fact that he is on a good track, and will get what he wants. Look out for something great. ‘The theatrical week has been somewhat illustrious | in the annals of the stage business, and deserves to | be noticed. At the Opera Mme. Steller, a fine looking woman and an excellent singer, made her i aed and was much applauded.

At the Varietés, the new farce called “ Les Myste- ries de L’Eté” has been quite successful. . The plot is amusing, the incidents laughable, and the scenery excellent. Mr. Leclére and Mme. Ozy obtain every evening an ovation, not to forget ern Octave, and Mme. Boigoutie, Fienet, Cerille, and Potel. This farce is written by Messrs. Delacour and Thibourt. _ ‘The Salle Ventadour is now opened by the com- pany of the Palais Royal theatre. The play in favor is called ‘‘Le Bourreau des Cranes,” and it is quite amusing. At the Gymnase, the celebrated Spanish danseuse, Petra Camara, assisted by Signor Guerrers and a corps ce ballet, is sia attracting the largest audi- ences, and receiving the most deafening applause. She is engaged for a month. 5 The ie abe and the Aréne Impériales are also the places of rendezvous of the amateurs of circus riding and feats of daring.

The pertean maxim, that * to the victor belongs the spoil,” has been inducted into our local 3 the wants of the people have been forgotten in the scramble for personal gain; and official malfeasance has found a ready shelter under the out-spread wings of partisan bafebsts t If our yy affairs must be controlled by any party, it should be a party whose paramount object will be to watch over the vast local interests of all classes of our citizens, guarding the growing com- merce of the city protecting and encouraging manu- factures, providing for the general. health, maintain- ing public order, securing the safety ot person and property, and at the same time husbanding without hoarding the public treasure, using economy without parsimony, and distinguishing between a just liber- ality and wasteful extravagance; a y that will teach its public servants in every department that they are chosen to perform certain functions for the public welfare, and not solely for their own emola- ment or aggrandizement, and that while they are en- joying a Fee from the people, the people im re- turn expect and will exact from them a faithful and intelligent discharge of their public duties; a '” in fine, that will recognise and enforce the nH that the office is not created for the benefit of the in- cumbent, but that the incumbent is chosen to the of- fice for the public good. These 3 have not been observed in our local affairs by the political parties of the State. The men they bave chosen for us have not all been equal to the task of government. Their public duties have been neglected, the great interests of the city have been jeopardized, the treasure squandered, and the people burdened with enormous and unjust taxation. For these reasons, and others that might be named, the committee have deemed it prudent and proper to recommend a more popular, and, as they believe, a safer mode of choosing candidates for the si of the people of the city of New York, in their local government, and to this end the Lahn, Lieto Se Leama ti adopted at the meeting held on the ult :— Fesolved That in the next ensuing election for city of- ficers this committee will appeal to the people the tty, urging them to nominate and support such caadi- dates fur all manicipel offices, regardless of national or State politics as will labor most zealously and efficiently to perfect the great work of city reform, so nobly cem- amenceo by the adoption of the amendéd charter. The committee are not blind to the fact that, on the publication of this resulution, there will be cor- pale men of either party who will stand ready to upon the license which it seems to afford, and under the name and prestige of reform attempt to delude others into the support of men as unworthy as themselves.
