Turin and Ancona, to be placed in communica- tion with Florence and Rome. May 2, 1854 (Blue Book, p. 274), uses the following lan- guage:— The Constitutionnel pays the following tribute to the memory of the late Minister of Public Instruc- tion, who took an active part in the promotion of this scheme, which he conceived would be far more instru- mental than conquest in one day re-uniting to France the fragments of her former _ M. For.oul attained his high of by his own talent and exertions, After beginning his career by the pubii- self to serious studies, and attained all the university hou ors step by step. As professor of \iterature at the faculty of Toulouse, he greatly distinguished himeelf as a lecturer. He was afterwards appoint of the Faculty of Art. It ‘was hig popularity and superior talent as a professor that pointed out M. Fortoul to the choice of the electors after the revolution of 1848, and the courage and intelligence oisplayed bp tt in the republican assemblies cannot be forgotten. He was always to be found on the side of common sense and justice, and the noble attitude which he then assumed drew on him the attention of the Prince who governed France as President of the Republic. Amid the general blindness of parties, M. Fortoul was one of the first to perceive where gafety could alone be found when anarchy seemed go threatening in the political hori- zon. On bis appointment to the Shinistry, of Public Tn- struction, M. Fortout soon displayed administrative taient of abigb order. In a situation which apprared to be sirrounded by so many difficulties at the outset, as it, in fact, was, the pew minister, by his justice and firmness found means to conciliaté persons und things which seemed altogether irreconcilable. The ministry of M. Fortoul will form one of the most honorable pages of the contemporary history of the University. As a professor, author, deputy and minister, he has run a brilliant career, and, what is far better, a useful one. On all these grounds it may be said that the Minister of Public Instruction car Ties with bim to the tomb, s* prematurely opened, the universal regret of his countgymet . The Senate met on Tuesday at two o'clock, M. Troplong being in the chair. M. Baroche. President of the Council of Stave, M. de Parien, Vice Presi- dent, and M. de Royer, member ot the Council of State, took their places on the bench supmeriped to the government Commissioners. The sitting was entirely taken up with a lengthened discussion on the Senatus Consultum concerning the Regency of the Empire, Marshal Magnan, Marshal Canrobert, the Marquis de Lavalette—in tact, all the most emi- nent members of the body—entered into a lively dis- cussion on the memts of this great measure, which eventually was unanimously adopted, the votes being pies tad proceedings not terminate till seven o'clock. The definitive evacuation of the Crimea took place on the Sth of July. Marshal Pelissier went on board the Rolapd, which sailed the same day. The} Bretagne left Kamiesch with the last vessels, and! arrived in the Bosphoras on the 6th. It has been determined that there shall be no féte on the return of the army from the East, as was at first proposed, but that a two-fold solemnity shall take place on the 15th of august, the féte day of the Emperor. The festivities are to have an entire! military character, which will not jess accord wit! the Féte St. Napoleon than with the occasion of Pelissier's return with the heroes of the Malakoff. I can only ray, as one of the inhabitants, that any ar- rangement will be welcome to us which in sone measure dispenses with those long weeks of vre- peration, planting of Venetian masta, erecting ar- cades of calico and pasteboard, digging up the earth for temporary fountains, smearing the trottoir with plaster of Paris for the manufacture of ephemeral statues, and interrupting the daily course of the pas- senger for the sake of gardens, lakes, uml 3 trees and charming kiosks, the beauty of which is only meant for the hour. After all, there is nothing liké @ purely military spectacle, and that France can improvise at 2 moment's notice. Count Apraxiss, Governor of Russian Siberia, has arrived ip Paris. It is said that his object in visit ing the West of Europe is to inquire into the va- ricus methods of workiug mines. ‘The penwons composing the suite of Count de Morny, a& Ambassador Extraordinary to Russia, was to have arrived at Havre on Tuesday, but still the Count delays. A rumor was afloat two or three days ago, that the Count found it im; ible to tedr himself away from the feet ot Miss Hutton, the American young lady who is said to have flung her spell over him; but I suspect the Count has ssed the age when love can exercise such arbi- dominion. Some little knotty point of cere- mony with Tussia has still perhaps to be adjusted, and Tor this the presence of Count Apraxiss, the Governor of Russian Siberia, bas probably as much to do as the mines of the West. The Lord Mayor of London has addressed to the Prefect of the Seine a fourth sum of 100,000f., on ac- count of the English subscription, which now emovnts to upwards of 600,000f., and that without inciuding the towns which bave placed themselves in direct communication with the French aathori- ties, As to Ruatan and the edjacent islands, all that can be de- bateable as to them, is whether they are island dependencies of Belize, or atiached'to some Central American State. * In the year 1836, Sir George Grey, then ber Majesty’s Secretary of State for the Colonies, 1s an official letter to Mr. 8, Coxe, a gentleman connected with 9 British com- ell eauitled ig uiturat ee ee the mimercial an cultura’ de boundaries of Bel.z», as fullows:— , From the Rio Hondo, on the north, to the river Sarstoon on the south, and as far West as Garbow’s Falls on the river Be- lize, and ‘a line on the same meridian to strike on the Rio Hondo on the north, and on the Rio Sarstoon on the south. The British crown claims aiso the waters, and cays lying between thewoast thusdefined aud the meridian of the eastermost point of] veef.—Letter of Sir George Grey to 8.

That they were not so regarded in 1836 is proved by Sir George Grey’s despatch to Mr. Coxe. Have they been purchared since, acquired by conquest or treaty? If not, what right has Great Britain there? 8. JuLy 10. {From the Leudon Times, July 14.] The English have been for a century and a half such an sdcventurous people, they have acquired or assumed rights of sovereignty on 0 many points ef the earth’s surface, bat very fow years elapse without our govern- ment being brought into somewhat hostile relations with some State or population, Within the present century England bas, we believe, been actually at war with every territory ou the globe except Portugal and Japan, and seldom do twelve months pass away without some dif- ference which causes the assembling ef frigates and cor veites, and a notice to Governors of colonies to bold their garrisons in readiness, Whether our opponents be Frenchmen in the Pacific, Americans in the Gulf of Mexi- co, or Caffres and Burmese in their reepective latitudes, we look on the recurrence of territorial disputes as a matter of course, and no more @ subject for excitement than the discovery of a new telescopic comet. The theory that the age ot colonies is past bas hardly yot been accepted by Englishmen, if we may judge from the yearly occupation of new points, and the transfer ot Britisn royal and political names tu growing cities m the most distant regions of the world. Some of our posses sions, however, are, it Would seem, unknown to the most patriotic student. The right of this country to Ruatan and the Bay Islands is now the suoject of a serious dis pute with the United States. Probably very few of our countrymen bad a tew months ago heard of Ruatan, and fewer knew how fur it had been declared formeriy a British possession. it was to the public in the same cate = as the isiauds of Polynesia, many of which may be ritish property, as having been discovered by Britisy captains and visited by British whalers, but of which we know little, except from the reports of some eaterpris ing missiovary. Great Britain and the States nave ‘been tor some time past in hot discussion as to the taue to Ruatan, and it was thought that when these two Powers were satistied the allair was over. But now another State appears on the stage, and prociaims its right to be beard. Honduras bas accredited @ Minister to the British Coort. This gentleman, Senor Don Victor Herrap, has arrived in London to urge the claim of hix government to.the territory in dispute, as forming a de. pendency of UpxWentral American republic. Now, as a general rule, the addition of a third party w a discussion as apt stil further to complicate matters, bat in this case the Honduras envoy seems rather a good genius, whore presence will render possible a solution dishonorabiec to ho party concerned, One thing we may premise, and it will probably Le denied by noone. Great Britain has no wah ier sarneny se — Gestras American coast. Our own ‘eat India islands are fast relapsing into primitive nas. When the. rich’ lands of Jamatca re belug yearly abandoned, aud when ia Triaidad and Gaiaga cultivation has almost ceased, it is not tikely that England wil! care to extend her sovereignty further over tropical territory which can only be brought into use by @ eyetem which has becn solemnly comienned. The sole object of this country theretore, is to settle this difficuity honorably and for ever, and a proposition will not be refused because it in volves the relinguishment of some worthless islands, of our right to whicd few even among educated men were aware We my listen, then, with impartiality to the statements of the Hondoras Minister. His plea is that Englacd bas never established a right to these islands which can bar the claim of the government which he re presents They belonged to Spain, and when Spain ceded her right of sovereignty over Honduras in 1821 they pass ed into the possession of the new republic. Since that ume acts have been committed by British officers which show that England claimed the {+lauds, and was Cetermiued to bold them, but which in no way aifecto: the striet rights of Honduras. The flag of the repubiir hae beet several times hauled down by the British. anc severa! times re hoisted. No treaty, however, bas de hom they bejpag, and it 1 for the two w, if they chdose, to settle the question to the legal right, we leave the discus sion ate authorities; bot we think that this conn claim which it may possess soitloment #o entirely satis pat — shall rest ia own loyal eubjects, (Cheers.)
