This precaution of the p= justified by a second fact, which we will now | ‘mention. The dipiomatic documents emanating from the French government are distinguished by a rare quality; they are always drawn up in the clearest and most precise terms. Nevertheless, aspeakor in the House sought to discover in a phrase of this despatch an accusation direct: & £ of political assassination. {From the Paris Pays, Fob. 22.) * * * * Lord Palmerston, in spite of his advanced age, played of late years, in the direction of tho faire of his country, the rarest gifts of a statesman. Minister who entered public life by socetving from Lord bese pee the of Secretary of War at the hottest period the fle between England and Imperial France, bad thrown off all his old prejudices and the re- collections of bis younger days; and his great sagacity, embracing the true interosts of England and of Europe, bad led him to become the most persevering and the most able defender of the French ailiance. Is it or this that Lord Palmerston has fallen? Are ..we to interpret his fal) as acheck to the alliance? We do not believe this. The alliance loses in tue noble lord a superior mind and a tried devotion, but this alliance rises superior to porsons or to individual will; it represents the interests of civiliza- tion, and we do nos believe that a single party exists in Fogland that bas not inscribed the Freuch alliance at the head of its programme. Bad the late hour not prevented the continuation of the debote, we have no doubt that the Dilliwould have been adopted by a strong majority. [From the Paris Patrie, Feb. 22.] * * * * * * * ‘The London Post goes a great doal too far in its opinion. ‘We conceive that this ardent defender of Lord Palmerston should be severe towards the trivmphant coalition, but we cannot look at the consequences af this vote in such very gloomy colors. The adversaries of Lord Palmerston have chosen a bad field for their victory; this is their greatest fault. They have defeated him ona question, or rather about question, which they not only cannot repudiate, but on which they must themselves seek to triumph. (From the Paris Presse, , Feb, 22,) * * * * * ‘Those who have followed with attention the current of the discussion in Parliament, as alse in the press and out doors, will attribute this vote to two different motives. Me spirit of opposition, the desire of giving a check to ministers, figure largely in this decision; but it would be unjust not to record a certain sentiment of pride and of national susceptibility, which is easily aroused in England. [From the Paris Union, Feb. 22.} * * * * * * * We have always believed, and we etill believe, that in the present state of E ‘® ministerial crisis in Kng- land 1s an event of gravity, the sole appearance of which is of @ nature to excite the most serious attention of politi- cal men. [From the Courrier de Paris, Feb. 22. * = * * * * sean bd naked by the amendment of Mr. Milner (Paris (Feb. 22—evening) correspondence of the London Post. Public opinion in Paris is still more than ever divided and perplexed about the change of minietry in England. The commercial world hope and believe that the Conspirators’ bill will eventually pass, and that the two goverameats will be reconciled, There are many again who are in- clined to take a more gloomy view of the question. The latter imagine the new Cabinet is plodged to address a roply to M. Walewski’s deepatch, and as, under the pre- sent circumstances, the text of that despatch must be made public, a fresh amount of irritation will be pro- duced. I believe I am correct in asserting that the Em peror and his advisers wait cal the progress of events - your side of ~ water. e gr ernnn tricks of the present House of Commons are thoroughly understocd at the Tuileries, and One Oe 8 majority ‘again return to the original vote for a bill, I presume the French government will regard the retire- ment of Lord Palmerston simply with regret. On the other hand te sure Lam correct in ‘saying, if a bill is not , friendly relations between the two governments can- ‘nut exist for any length of time. I bope you,will have no reason to prove the correctness of this “ass . M.de Persigny was to have quitted Paris immediately for Lon- don, after Lord Palmerston’s fall was known, but bis Ex- cellency did not leave, and it was even doubtful if be would do so at 12 o'clock today, Ido not mean to hint tbat the delay of the return of the Emperor's representa tive to Londou originates in any intention to suspend friendly relations, but his Majesly might think it advisable to give M. de Persigny instructions according the com- Dination of the new Cabinet. The composition of the new government is the question ef the moment i Paris. Who will sveceed Lord Palmerston was the interrogation ad- dreased to-day in all quarters. In French diplomatic and official circles, Lord Derby seems to be considered the only possible chief; but the universal impression is that lord Palmerston must again return to office stronger than ever 1 give you these impressions as hear them, and to show bow much the late vote has left us in Paris ho- ‘vering in the regions of speculation, without being able to draw any conclusions for the future. The Minsterial press of France will, 1 suspect, maintain its moderate tone, and confine itself to a record of events without much comment. Tbe government of this country, I repeat, assumes the attitude of a spectator for the moment, as re. gards the late mapouvres of the House of Commons. Nothing will be dene to add to the existing dumb excite ment which exists throughout France with reference to the conspirators in England and the new laws which their plots have vexatiously imposed on society in France. But then the material reste ready for government to turn © account, and bad France been governed by an impul sive,sovereign, by this time we might be expecting very grave future results. The atteadance at the Bourse today was unusually great, and the first quotations from Englan4 were looked tor ‘with deep enxiety. A decline of three-quarters in consols ‘was anticipated, and there were buyers in the French market who kept up the funds whenever the Tnrees to go below 69 francs. Then came a report that Lord Stratford de Redeliffe would form one of the Derby Cabinet, This caused a gloom; but eventually in Lerested persons spread ap assertion tat Lord lalmerston bad again agroed to take office. (Paris (Feb. 21) correspondence of the London Times.) ‘The result of the division on the Conspiracy to Murder Dill base produced a great sensation among all classes of people bere. The ministerial organs evidently did not ex pect such « result,and are much taken aback. Their language bes lost some of its vainglorious style. In offi cial quarters no trifling bewilderment is apparent, and ‘even people who are not over friendly towards Eagland wdmit that matters have been carried too far with her ‘There is a pretty geceral feeling that a series of unforta- nate blunders bas been committed.

The efficiency of the Baitic fleet ia its second campaign, and the exteasion of what may be called the system, are almost entirely the work of the Palmerston administration. ‘ibe results of these naval improvements will probabiy be seen in the war which is now being waged ip the China seas Nor waa it in mate. rial things alone that the energy of the administration wae displayed. Lord Palmerston had other opponents | than the Rassians, and had to wage & war wito otner | weapons than shot or shell. It was always declared by the admirers of the heaven born Mr, itt, that his chief glory wae not his defence of England against the French — but against ite adulators and would be imitators | Sthome. Lord Palmerston bas been the pilot to weather | & similar storm. Who can forget the wi iotic elo quence of the inet war?

Gertaluiy | the solid gaims of the treaty have been of immense im. portance.

Turkey Tepresentative. the conctusion of questions have ari- sen, in two of which Lord. ’s government bas tak- en a different view from the French Emperor, and enforced its opinion with « vigor which bears but little resemblance to a submissive policy. In tho affair of Bolgrad it is now universally admi that the British governmont was right, and that the French took a different viow thi an importfoct acquaintanco with the merits of the ques:ion.

This Fe tion is alac abou to be regulated in accordanee with tisk opinions, unless, indeed, the sentiments expressed by Mr. Gladstone encourage other powors to rocece from the engagements they have taken. In the Persian and Chinese wars it cannot be doubted that Lord Palmerston has endeavored to uphold the honor of this country; and who shall say that he has not been successful’ Herat has been restored by the Porsian Court; and itis likely that our influence at will for the future be sutticient to prevent the recurrence of any hostile polisy, The re sul of the Chinese campaign we have yet to learn; bat we may ‘that Ite course, which has been as yot 80 fa- vorabie, will end with the establishmont of cioser rela- tions with the Celestia! Kmpire, ana taatinafew years our steamers will ascend magnificent Yang-tse, and our adventurous tourists enter in peace the most secluded towns of the interior, We need not speak of the Indiau mutiny and ita invumerabié tales of heroism, It is sufficient to remind the country that a Brffisn force ts encamped on Indian ground larger than any which bas ever been sent toa dependency by any European nation. the first acts of the new governmeut will be to provide a government for the «.opire which Lord Palmers- ton has been mainiy instrumental in saving. With regard to dome Lc policy, the services of the government have not been small, ‘The Premier was never a man who was suppoeed to study or even to care about law roforms and commercial reforms, and yet, by mere dint of keeping his subordmates and the House of Commons to their work, be has passed in the Iast two sessions measures of such importance as the Limited Liability act, the Probate act, the Divorce act, together with a number of measures far above the average of ordinary years. Yet within the last few months there has been—it is useless to deny {t—a diminution of bis popularity. This it tseasy to account for. Lord Palmerston, triumphant abroad, successfui and honored at home, a great minister, almost a dictator, has not been able to withstand the sinie- ter influences which tend to lead every public man into favoritism and eo The Premier, we must repeat, has been very ill advised—advised to his owa ruin in re- spect to many of his recent appointments. His Rishops may, indeed, be men of piety and good intention, bat how is it that they have been chosen almost universally from the narrow class of aristocratic clergy? More than one of his milit appointments bas been excep- tionable, But the chief orror was the introduction of Lord Clanricarde into the Cabinet. All the late Premier's friends agree in thivking that (his act, more than any public measure, contributed to his overthrow. Throughout the country, im all ranks of society, and on both sides of both Houses, it was felt as a pudlic scan- dal—ag an outrage on public feeling. It has been fol- lowed by other appointments not less disgraceful, though leas prominent, of which we shall probably hear more. Nor can it be denied that the spectacle lately exhibited of members of the aristocracy fastening witha kind of ra- pacity on minor official places has done much to disgust a large class of nos, These were gross faults—it not crimes, they were blunders—but we must in justice add that they cannot be weighed against the great services which Lord Palmerston bas rendored to the country. He found it weak, and has left it powerful; he found it carry. ing on a doubtful war with a great military State; he has left it trrumphant over that State and over its enemies in three great countries of Asia. He bas administered with success the internal affairs of the kingdom, in sp:te of their great ‘and ever increasing perpicxity. His long lifo bas DB it in the service of his country, and the last three years have been the most brilliant part of it. He lays down power amid the regrets of many even among those whose votes have overthrown his Cabinet. (From the London Times, Feb. 24.)

He has not a man more than he had when he informed her Majesty that, what ever the inherent goodness of his cause, he had scarcely A statesman of note on his side. All that can be said is tha: he has kept bis floc Tr, & praise common to every refugee and to the lowest place « herever gravitation Enther these gentlemen have immensely rigen ip the scale of creation, or England bas immensely if she accepts her Dew rulers without s remonstraace. ag@ reminded, however, that this is a moral ques tion; ray, more, it is an affair oi honor, where all ordiaary estimates are out of place, and where a grain of true dig- nity is worth more than shiploads of utility or genius. it is better to retrieve our houor with France under the au- spices of Derby, Disraeli, Malmesbury, Ellenborough, bulwer Lytton, Lord John Manuers, General eel and tne rest, than to flounder on with a bankrupt character under Paluperston, Clarendon, Sir Cornewall Lewis, Sir George Grey, Sir Charles Wood and their colleagues. We have ex. changed intellectual for moral greatness, and caa afford to part with the talse glare of buid aud constructive legista. tion, if we can only say that we bave not pocketed an af. front. For our part, we most devoutiy hope that our mew Ministers wil! not have to encounter the same trial as the Jast; that no scoundrel will tng an Foglish grouade or fire an Foglieh revolver at the Emperor for the uext ‘welvemonth, that Walswski will hencetorth con- tent himself with suggesting topics to some fifthrate English paper, ana that the Freach coionels may find a foe worthy of their prowess in the interior of Africa. We should be giad tw see Lord Der- a 's political path laid with the softest turf, and cieared ll the dangers that proverbially lie in the course of @ statesman. Yet, even at the best, we have some serious misgivings. Weare far more sure of our loss than of our gain in the exchange we have just suflered. Graot | that there is something low in pollucal ability, and that intellect ts of this world, yet we do not {eel quite confident | tbat the present gain of moral worth i= such as to dispense with those vulgar appliances, Nor can it be forgotten that this is a practical world. Parliaunest, after performing a grand act of faith in the immoiation of Palmerston and Lis recreant colleages, will possibly spend some time—at least the fortaignt’s re- cess—in & pleasing thrill of self-complacency. It will see Britann! holding the balance, wherein Palmerston aad Clarendon kick the beam, while Dorby, Maimesbury, and the other champions of Laghsh honor descend with native gravity. But the grandost wpectacies weary in time, and the indefatigable malice and ingenuity of politicians are #ure to raise up new ques tions, in which old scores will be forgotten, and inteliect, expediency, and ruch hard things once more hold sway. When thix is the case—when it comes to India, to China, to parliamentary reform, to the consolidation of our laws, to & dozen other subjects a over us, it remains be ascertained whether the new Ministry will bold their own—to use the vulgar slang of secular, politicians— the old. Mere mortal worth, even iffthe shape of ‘a grand pational penance. will not count long against either commercir! or political utilities. It will be coasidered, too, that the sacrifice was performed, the virtue exhivited, aud the honor acquired previous to the new Ministry, and by the act of its inauguration. So, before long. we shall ail be brought round to the old question—What is to be dove! And the statoxmen who answer this mort to the satisfaction of the public will be hkely to carry the day.

Witnoas continued—The parce! came to hand the same night. That day Allsop called and said he came for the pisto's. Ho examined them, and called again the next day, when he took away one box containing one pistol, with its appurtenances. Tie parcel when it came was wrapped in the ollskin pow produced, and consisted of two boxes, each ontaining one pistol, The boxes were like those produced.

He had told me that he hoped to get afriend named Piercy, a German, to take the two boxes. I once saw that peraon at Alleop’s lodgings, Rue Montabor, No. 10, In the course of that Sanday I found that the sccond boxend pistol hac been taken a from my house. I was repaid by Alisop for the of the pistols 26fr 55c., and also 20fr. or 25fr., which I had given to the man ‘' pour boire ” (for drink). (The sample of what the witness called “ charbon ” was hereproduced. It was ofan irregular shape and blackish color, and sppoared to be a proparation of tar) The éxamination of the witness then proceeded. Ho knhew the spelling of Pierri’s name from the circumstance that the tatter, when he called for the pistols, wrote it down; the sample of ‘“‘charbon"’ was never sent to the chemist, as when a measenger called for it witness was absent, and his wife could not find it. Cross examined—-It was addressed to‘ M. Cavaillon, Barriére, Fontainebleau ;’ bad made no inquiries for such & person. Re witness, Mr. King, who had at the former examina- tion proved the booking of a parce! by defendant at the Southeastern office, in Regent’s Circus, ncw identified the oilcloth produced as the covering of the parcel. It bore the seal of the company—on finding it was not weil se- cured he had sealed it up. a The oilcloth was of the kind used for table covers, but of acommor description. The seal and* direction were op what would be called the “ wrong” side; the oiled surface with the colored pattern baving been turned in.

I fetched it from a riding school in the Rue Dataut, Mr. Bodkin said that as it was now nearly six o'clock be should offer no further evidence on this occasion, but should epply for a further remand of one week, as the witneese to return t Paris to be present at the trial on Thursdey (to-morrow). Mr. igh would not oppose tht remand. Mr. Bodkin might have the caze remacded as long as he pleased. So far as they had gone, the evidence was far from his notion of what evidence in such acase ought to be; and if the result of the three remasds was only the production of more of the same kind, he could imagine what would be the result, supposing it ever went before a jury. His application now was that the defendant—a gentleman by position, and a man of science, though unfortunately a refugee, and charged with this misconduct-—should not longer be kept in jail. With the greatest respect for the magistrate’s judgirect, he had felt it his duty to apply toa Judge in chambers, who, however, had declined to interfere ‘with the discretion of the magistrate. The man’s liberation, then, or bis further incarceration, was entirely ia the hands of the magistrate. He contended that the evidence was of the same description as was given on the former occasion, ‘and was the most meagre he had ever heard. great deal bad been made of the circumstance that a revolver and knuckle duster bad been found in defendant's room; but it was in the memory of persons who, he 4 would come forward, that some time ‘f°, in the neighbor hood where he resided, near Notting Hill, garrote robberies were frequent, and defencant was himself narrowly rescued from ab attack of garroters. It was in conse- quence of that circumstance that defendant provided him- self with those weapons, which, it was imputed, were for the purpose of being used against the Emperor of the Freuch. Mr. Bodkin had, on the last occasion, exclaimed, “Why, my triend can’t be serious to ask bail for a maa who says be will shoot the first Frenchman who molests bim.”’ But it was a matter which had lately gained currency Ubat there were in this country persons who had come for the purpose of attempting to attack and kidnap indi viduals of whose dofenceless position they might take advantage, and the prisoner had only raid that, fend himself as be was entitiod to do, As for the corres- pondence with Outrequin, it related only to experiments in the dyeing of silks and manufacture of fa from tar, defendant being # chemist. Why was defendant to be treated with less kindness than our own countrymen? Was it because he was a foreigner? (Sensation in court. Were we afraid of any foreign power! (Here the | counsel, whore manner had been gradually growing warmer, till it became passionate, was interrupted by « suddeo, loud apd vehement clappiog of hands i® the court, of which no notice was taken by the magistrate or officera. ) He could not believe that an independent ‘would allow any ill fecling to operate but a sense of his duty. The question was not whether the man was guilty, but whether, if admitted to bail, be would appear’ That was the test. He was prepared with good substantial ‘bail to any reasouabic or even unreasonable amount. He trusted the magistaate would deal with this case as with any other misdemeanor, though ip fact and in truth it was & political oD ir. Bodkin—You won't expect me, sir, to answer a speech which was not intended to operate on your mind, but to have its effect in other places where sympathy with murder is taught and felt. I don't know where those laces may be; I hope thereare not very many in London. Faking the test which has been suggested, if you were to be induced go far to forget what i cue to public justice as to yield to these representations, is it likely that the de- fendant would appear? I neod not add one observation om your judgment, which one of the Queen's judges bas Mr Bodkin went on to urge that the Crown had used all pomsibie celerity, considering the number of witnesses, mostly foreigners, whom it was difficult to get together. Mr. Jardine—It is impossible to admit that if I was right before, 1am not more so now, when there is such serious evidence in additian. Even if it were not so now, it is not to be supposed, if 1 know myvelf, that I am keeping him in custody because he ie aforeigner. [f an Engl were cl under such circumstances, he would be remand. ed from week to week, unless I wore set right by the judges. When committed matter—it will depend on the circumstances of the case. Mr. Sleigh b & copy of the depositions would be given this time, as it was rofured the last time. Mr. Jardine—You have been misinformed, andi can’t help thinking misinformed with design. [ put myself to trouble and inconvenience in matter, and told O'Brien (the clerk), to go before the judge with the depositions. The man went away saying, ‘I will call again.” Mr. O'Brien waited tor him all day, and he nevor came. Mr. Sie At all eventa, we can bave them this time’ Mr. Jardine—Of course you can. ‘The prisoner was then removed. During the examination the court was crowded chiefly with foreigners, while a multitude of “rongha’’ had aa- sembied in the street outside.

At the Bow street Police Oourt yesterday, Mr. Bodkin, counsel to the Treasury, attended to conduct a prosecu. on against Edward Truelo ell dressed, middie aged man, described as a bookseller, who was charged with having ‘“‘unlawfully written and published a false, mali- clous, reandalous and seditious libel of and concerning his Majesty the himperor of the French, with the view to incite for trial it will divers persons to assassinate his aaid Majesty.’” Mr. Bodkin appeared for the prosecution, and Mr. Sleigh for the defence. The warrant having been read by Mr. Bernaby, the chief clerk, Mr. Bodkin said—Sir, this is a case in which the govern- ment thought proper to interfere. The defendant is the publisher of a pamphlet—whethor he is the author or no | cannot say, but it pur to be written by W. KB.

In that case be should apply for e remand —cefendant to be admiited to bail. He observed that dofendsnt was not asked by the officer wheth sr he know what the pampblet contained. This was differsat from the case of Veitior, Which was a ibe. Mr. Henry—So is this. There is no doubt about it. Mr. Bodkin—It is not necessary that the name should be mentioned. Mr. Henry—-There is internal evidence as clear as pos- sibie showing to whom it alludes. lication for time I sball Mr. Rodkin—To my friend’s not cbject, nor to the admission of defendant to bail in the ‘usual amounts; but 1 must ask my friend to do govern ment the justice to remember that if it was their design to be harsh they might have inaicted the defendant at once.

Toey might have taken out a summors instead of a warrant. Mr. Bodkin—We are going to have a new government; but [hope po government will know its duty 6o badly as to take that course in euch a case. Defendant was then remanded, being admitted to bail in two sureties of £40, and bis own recognizance for £100, Mr. Sleigh asked ‘bis worship to fix a lower amount of Dail—£20 for instance—us defendant was but a bumble tradesman ; but Mr. Henry declined, and in the course of an hour bai! to the amount fixed was provided, and defen- dant was set at liberty. THE DEMONSTRATION IN HYPE PARK. {From the Loudon Post, Feb. 22] A committee, the names of the gentlemen composing which have been studiously kept in the background, hav- ing called an ‘ind! ‘ion meeting” of tbe men of London to protest against tbe Conspiracy to Murder bill, and fixed three o'clock yesterday and Hyde Park as the time and place of assembly, crowds of people poured frou every quarter of the town to swell what it was expected would be @ monster meeting; but great was their hoe de rere on reaching the Park gates to find it placarded that the rs of the meeting, instead of exhtbiting the white which was to telegraph to the masses that they were called upon to vote in favor of a resolution condemnatory of Lord Palmeraton’s foreign policy, had shown the white feather, and seriously interfered with the Gregorian calen- dar by displacing the let of April in the regular order of days. The announcement was to the effect that, in con- sequence of the patriotic vote of the House of Commons on Friday evening the meeting had boen abandoned. ‘The men of London bore their di intment ta silence, phen ye of Se ee Programme, all 8 of the , Ww waa not held, were to have been carried on in dumb show, and the obstreperous rabble were to have been a congre- The venders of gation of political the dealers in lollypops drove Park bad all the appearance of a fair, The pickpockets, however, looked rather disappointed, for the; pected to have made a good baul; but as the people, instead of gathering together in knots, amused themselves by walk- ing about upon the green turt, those light fingered gentry bad no facility for plying their peculiar occupatioa. ‘The gathering, however, did not want a political aspect, and from afew little circumstances which occurred, it became tolerably manifest the refugees were not foremoet in the affections of those assembled in the Park, for whenever one of them broke cover,a set of young- sters opened the cry, and helter skelter, a mob was upon his heels and chased bim from the enciosure. Beyond a few of these little episodes to the great political demon- stration, nothing worthy of notice took place, and the crowds, after enjoying the balmy breeres of the Serpen- tine, returned—meek as doves and quict as lambs—to their own habitations. Several members of the Legisla- ture were upon the ground to observe the conduct of those agsembled, and nothing could be more exemplary. FRENCH SPIRS IN ENGLAND—BFPECTS OF THE SYSTEM. {From the London News, Feb.t24. | It is said, we know not with what truth, that the French government has a certain number of its employés amongst us, Jwhose office is to watch the doings of conspirators and retugees. Ona recent occasion they are proved & have performed their office most imperfectly. But there is an- other class of political agenw, and a higher class, who seem to have done their duty still worse. These are the people employed to observe the state of opinion tn this that I look with very the | country—ot that opinion which pervades the public, and which, if not shared at firs; by our politicians, is sure to ome over them witb a power and an influence they dare ‘not resiet, and which in reality originates the motives and | commands the measures of our legislature. if such persons should pounce upon him, he should de- | | taken. | Antwerp itself teay be the prize of a bold invasion. } negations of Cad prinetple have been--nay there was no Had the French government been duly aware and 4 ) rived of the state of public feeling amongst us, it would ot have ventared to provoke the storm which now rages through these islands. It is, no doubt, very incompre- hensible to French or continental politicians, this univer- ‘al feeling not only tomaintain the right of asy, but ot even to suffer the smallest infringement of tt laws which furnish a ard to political exiles. What are these exiles to ua? ‘tainly not more Uian the woes of Hecuba to the in “Hamlet.” Aud yet, who ia there that in Faglish life who must not feel that we would riek ali rather than abate one iota the protection which Engiand has ever afforded them * We are not at ali surprised that this should seem unac- countable to the government pol of France. We know well the light in which unofficial as well as official foreigners are but too apt to regard us. We are a nation of shopkeepers. Wo are & people immersed in moneyed , im commercial interests. If England goes to war it is said to be, not for principles, but markets. Selfish calculations are supposed alone to actuate not merely our covernment, but our Parliament ana public. We will not recapitulate the numerous and ingenious arguments by which the political essayiste of France and Germany demonstrate this fact and maintain this assertion. Suffice it to observe, that even the last war,so manifestly a matter of feeling, has been set down to the mere policy of the counting house. A majority amongst the French public mon argued that we English had made catepawa of them, and succeeded in oe the Emperor Napoleon to go to war tor our oft. We fear that uch ideas linger not only im the unin- formed French mind, but even in that of the Emperor himself. For his late doings too clearly evince the belief that we are ready to preserve bis allinuce at all risks, and ‘with all sacrifices; and that, whatever sentiment or re Pugnance might dictave, the Parliament and the country would be guided by metives of policy, not by those of dignity, honor or priae if 80, the imperial politician bas been grievously mis. For we are quite ready to sdmit that policy would have inclined us to obey the mandate of the Walewski let ter, and to pass sub silentio such a bill as the Iate ministry presented us with. There are a great many inoonye bienoee in quarreling with France. It disturbs our trade, stope reforms, casts a liberal ministry from office. It may evengaddie as with the tories for a month or two, War 8 an an eventuality in the distance—not proda think. But still the public and the Parliament in rejecting the imperial ultimatum risk it rather than sub mit. And what arisk! The undoing of al! that had been concluded and won by the last war, the abandonment of all progress in the Levant—for Russia would infallibly take advantage of our quarrels. Greater inconvenicnce may follow tearer home. Belgivm is indefensible, and All this we risk—tor what? Because we will not change our ancient laws under insoient and uowarrantable dic tation. Vorily, be we what we may, we are at least no selfish politicians. We are no creatures o° caloulation, who weigh the probable gains and lor tee of « resolution ore we take it. Shopkeepers we may be, but we fling shop aside when we enter into consideration of politics, into which we evidently bring a sensibility as keen, and a disin terested ness As cront, as those the most refined ~— thatever worshipped and obeyed the inspirations of chi- vairy. £14 not merely our gentry that do this, but our middle and mercantile, our industrious and working classes. The whole country is of one mind, mad pernaps in the pon cpap ey but right in the view of moral. tat, apd in that of the j —— of homan na ture. It saleo to be considered that, however fraught with risk and inconvenience to ourselves may be the vote of Friday night, it sete England right with ail thay portion public opinion in Europe which is worth respecting. Whatever advan! we may have from the French alliance, there can bo no doubt that also mach obloquy would have fallen upon us had we even appeared to sacrifice any portion of our traditional liberties to a Prince and a Power that were dear to us, There would greater cause of the univer. 1a deapalt of moderate and constitutional liberty throughout the world than the aspect of England, smother- ing ita predilections and veiling ite liberalism in order to hold ont the hand to a despot. We do not want to with- draw that hand. But it is now manifest to the world that England holds it forth, not in trucking or in ccmpromise, but on the fair and open understanding that whilst the French Emperor may pursue his own line of pr France, we also persevere and persist in ours here. mere fact of Engiand’s having assumed this attitude will at once re establish her character, breathe heart and hope into all that is bberal and intependent in Europe, and without encouraging either revolution or conapiracy, give men courage to stand up for their freedom and their rights in thore honorable ways which can alone merit and ensure snece THE FRENCH PASSVORT SYSTEM—DIFFICULTIRG OF ENGLISH TRAVELLERS.

COUNT WALEWSK!'S FAMOUS DESPATCH. The following is the despatch from the English Am- bassador at Paris laid before rarliament by command of her Majeety :— KARL COWLEY TO THE EARL OF CLARENDON. (Received February 21.) Panis, Feb. 20, 1868. My Loxp—Baving learnt by telegraph that certain resolutions imputing blame to her Majesty’s government for not having made any reply to Count Walewski’s des- ae to Count Porsigny, dated the 20th of January, had affirmed by s majority of the House of Commons, I think it a duty to your lordship bd cay on record that, although I have vot been charged to make any official communication to the French government in answer to that despatch, I have been lea by your lordabip’s private instructions to place before the French govern- ment the sentiments, views and intentions o1 her Majos- ty’s government far more fully, and 1 cannot but believe | more eatisfactorily, than would bave been the case had my language been clothed in a more official garb. ‘ben Count Waiewsk!'s despatch was writen the irri- tation against the supposed apathy of England, in a mat- ter so important to France as the presorvation of the Km- peror’s life, was excessive. Righty or wrongly, the idea prevailed that every conspiracy against his Majesty had io Engiana, and that the British laws gave security to the couspirators. No counter assertions on the part of her Majesty’s government would have bad any effect at that moment; and any official notice om the part of your lordship ot Count Walewski’s despatch would, probably, have involved the two governments in a con- troversial discussion more likely to have increased than to bave calmed the excitement which prevailed. If the object was to soothe, it was important to let time exert ‘its usual influence, and to reserva the official answer to Count Walewski's despatch until it was known whether Parliamen’ would answer the appeal which was to be made to it by her Majesty's government. But it ought not to be ignored, that, while taking this prudent course, your lordship lost no’ opportunity of in- forming the French government, confidentially, of the true bearings of the question which had been raised. Your ordsbip’s language has been, irom the beginning of this unfortunate affair, clear and straightforward. I Lave now your lordship’s letters before me, in which, while vindi- cating, in language worthy of your lordsh! name, the right of asvium which Great Britain bas alforded to strapgers of ail ranks and nations, and while declaring, in tertne as explicit as they are determined, the impossibility of infringing on that great principle of our constitution you show how utterly insuflicient must any enactment be to pre- vent men of desperate minds from entering upon despe- rate undertakings. As your lordship's true, but v § adequate organ, I have iathfully represented your feel- ing? and your principles, and could I call upon the Empe- Tor, or upon Count Walewski, as witnesses, neither, | feel certain, could belie my words. I know not what may be the result of last night's vote, but, atali events, | lose no time in stating my conviction that to your lordship’s judicious and prudent conduct at a very er! | moment it is owing that, without the shadow of the sacrifice of a single principle, our relations with this government have not recotved @ shock which might have been fatal to the friendship which yot happily pre: vails between the two nations.
