The news report by the Allantic cable is dated yester- day evening, Jury 29, The Paris Moniteur publishes an explicit contradiction of the war rumors which have been circulating on the Continent, so far as they refer to the war preparations of France.

Our special correspondent in London furnishes a most Valuable letter, detailing the debate and describing the ‘scene in the English House of Commons on the occasion of the passing of the Derby-Disraeli Reform bill. Tho grand British naval review at Spithoad, in honor of the Sultan, is described by special mail telegram from our correspondent at Portsmouth.

United states and State troops will be used alike for the quelling of any distur- bance, and an extra force of policemen is to be detailed in Nashville, In Memphis, Sheriff Winders, in view of ‘apprehended riote, issued a call tor fifteen hundred men ‘to keop the peace on election day, but the Mayor and Bnperintendent of Police have urged him to revoke it. ‘The Mayor stated that General Thomas would be in the city at that time with @ regiment of regniars, and that ‘Goneral Forrest would take command of two hundred ‘volunteers, all to act in concert. The Superintendent threatened the Sheriff with the ‘boys in biue”’ if he per- sisted in bis call. It is stated in Washington that Secretary Stanton’s Continued opposition to the policy of the President bas Produced between the two a positi distaste for one Suother’s society, and that Stanton’s resignation is de- voutly wished for. The President's proclamation against filibusters will bo issued in a day or two. In the Surratt trial yesterday Mr. Carrington resumed his argument for the prosecution, and had not finished ‘when the court adjourned. Gonoral Grant and bis party left Long Branch yester- day. Heary Williams, charged with the late double murder at Ascutneyville, Vi, underwent a preliminary examina- tion at that place yesterday, and was committed on a charge of murder in the first degree on the evidence of the little daughter of the murdered couple.

During an excursion of the ‘Thuber-ma-Carthies" So cioty on the steamer Titamar and two barges up the Hudson, on Sunday, a party of roughs got aboard and raised a general row, during which two men wore wiabbed, a large number severely wounded and one man was drowned.

Io another part of this day’s Heracy we print a letter from the pen of our special cor- respon‘ient in London, giving am account of the last great debate in the House of Com- mons on the occasion of the final reading of the Reform bill. The description of the House will be accepted as that of an eye-witness, and the epitome which is given of the debate will be admitied to be faithful and just. It is evident from the letter of our corre- spondent that while the tory party, with a few exceptions, is jubilant, the once so-called liberal party is crushed with that worst of all sorrow—the sorrow that comes of disappoint- ment and defeat, Disraeli is the hero of the hour, the object of the praises and the homage of the proudest and most cultured aristocracy in the world; and he assumes the attitude and uses the language of a conqueror who can point to the triumph which enables him to seem indifferent to the means by which it has been achieved. Cranborne and Lowe are prophetic of coming ili. Gladstone, with becoming dig- nity, is silent. Bright is nonplusced, and knows not what to say. The one weak point in the debate, as it ap- pears to us, was (he anxiety mani‘ested by sec- tions of both the great parties, particularly by Disraeli on the one hand, and Bright on the other, to claim the paternity of a measure which the one party, though it dislikes it, has had the honor of passing, and of which the other party, though it rather likes it, bas been robbed of the liurels. The bill is now safe in the Lords, and such unworthy trifles might have been passed in silence. For politicians to quarrel about the credit of having origi- nated or proposed or carried the measure is absurd. Reform in England, like emancipa- tion in the United States, has been the result of cireumsianess, not of any settled political policy, and has been carried by the people, not by the politicians. Mr. Disraeli has been to the bill what President Lincoln was to the emancipation—the executor, not the ortginator. He has been forced along, step by step, a8 President Lincoln was, and he has displayed his wisdom, not in leading the people, but in obeying them. Like President Lincoln again, he has been successful mainly through his jokes. How many a puzzling question did one of Lincoln’s stories make plain during the doubtful days of our recent war, and how many a dangerous division have Disraeli’s rollicking speeches tided safely over during the long re- form debates. Different in many respects, Lin- coln and Disraeli are also in many respects alike, and especially in this—that, almost by accident, their names have been indissolubly connected with measures which will change the future fortunes of their respective countries. Lord Cranborne and Mr. Lowe were perfectly right in predicting that the change in England will be radical and revolutionary. The agita- tion which Mr, Disraeli defies is preparing for him. Beales is already a candidate for the Reform Parliament, and other such men will be elected. They hate all prerogatives; they care nothing for privileges; they are insatiable for more reform. Bright, who now talks like a conservative, and Gladstone, who dares not speak at all, for fear of showing how strongly he is opposed to this bill, remind one of Greeley and Seward, who were once considered very radical, but are now left far behind by the Chandlers and the Wades. The English masses are not yet satisfied, and never will be so long as they have to pay tithes to a State Church and take off their hats to titles. Those who would like to see old England must go there within the next two years. Old things are pass- ing away, and another England, modelled some- what after America, is being rapidly prepared. Cranborne and Lowe were correct in prog- nosticating this transformation, but wrong in opposing and dreading it. Individuals may lose their titles, their large landed property or their political influence; but the change will be very beneficial for the country generally sweeping away stupid precedents, musty tradi- tions and effete formalities, and giving to the new England a young, fresh and vigorous life. The Fighting Facti in Tennessee. In Tennessee the State government is in the hands of an outrageous faction—extromists, who carry radicalism to its utmost limit; and, though nominally in sympathy with the great republican party of the North, this tyran- nical faction has, by its bitter personalities and its hostility to nearly all decent men in the State, arrayed against it the mass of those who believe in the Union and desire an honest reconstruction of the country. Hence we have a singular contradiction in party names, Con- servative in other Southern States means the party more or less affiliated with the old secesh leaders and opposed to the repablican supremacy. But in Tennessee it means the men who desire the triumph of the principles and authority of the republican party, and desire nothing so much as to see cut short the tyranny of the notorious Parson Brownlow, who has dropped all questions of party and policy in the pursuit of personal antipathies. The canvass in the State has been carried on with great passion, and there have been, as our readers know, several bloody affrays. The fear was that these were but the prelude to the greater atrocities of election day, and that Brownlow, who has an organized armed force, would wreak a savage vengeance on those opposed to his pariy. But as General Grant is now moving in the matter, and giving to Ten- nessee the same attention he gave just before the battle that crushed Hood, there is every promise that a proper distribution of govern- ment troops will once more make the Ten- nesseeans practically free, and keep Brown- low’s bravoes in wholesome awe. The Removal of General Sheridan. It is stated somewhat positively, in our Washington correspondence, that the Presi- dent has determined to “assume the responsi - bility” of removing the commander of the Fifth district; that he is sustained in this de- termination by every member of the Cabinet except Mr. Stanton ; that General Hancock is already fixed upon as the recipient of the posi- tion, and that the President only delays this important step to have the approval of General Grant. It is well the President undtrstands that more is necessary for the wise govern- ment of a country than a readiness to “assume the responsibility.” That readincss is very well in its way and in its place; the Prosident has shown abundance of courage in that re- | spect; wo hops he may be as jusily catitled to " | the discretion attribated to bim in awaiting i Whe approval of Grant as he iy (0 what credit NEW YORK” HERALD.” TUESDAY, JOLY ~ 30,” 1867. may be due for having taken the responsibility as often as he has; for if he is really waiting for Grant’s consent, we have a notion that Sheridan’s career as military command _r is still far from its close, President Johnson's Alarw. The President is troubled with patriotic fears. He has, as every one knows, the grea‘est soliciiude that the reconstruction of the Southern States should go forward rapidly, if it will only go forward in his par- ticular way; and now he sees, or thinks he secs, a dreadful danger ahead—an interruption of this happy progress; an interruption that may be greater than that hitherto c.used by the interference and obstinacy of Congress, which, like the eleven jurors of stubborn and happy memory, refased to listen to the one man who could have told them exactly what to do. This interruption is likely to arise from Presi- dent making. The President is alarmed lest “the great struggle for the Presidency” should turn the eyes of the country and Congress away from the necessity of re-establishing the Southern States in the natural relation with the rest of the country—lest tho interests and welfare of the Southern people should be over- looked and forgotten in tho intrivues and tur- moil of the great quadrennial strife. He secs the nation laboring under many troubles—re- construction, an Tadian war, the national debt, Mexico, and the contest for the Presidency. The greatest of these is the last, and the greatest danger of this is that it may arrest the progress of reconstruction, This fear is honorable to the President. It shows his sincorily ; it furnishes, indeed, the most indubitable evidence that the President isnot self willed and over fond of his own opinions on reconstruction, nor desirous to carry out plans of his own to the exclusion of the plans of the nation ; for surely if the President did desire, as has been charged, to have his own way with reconstruc- tion, to buiid up refractory State govera- thents, and put the South once more into the hands of unwhipped rebels, what could he wish better than that Congress should have its attention distracted by Presidential games, so that he could be left to manage the Sonth as he chose, unimpeded and unobserved. Did he desire these things he would have no such fears as he now expresses, But, lest he should have sleepless nights with this honorable and patriotic alarm, we beg to reassure him there is no danger. The people will choose a Presi- dent and keep an eye on the Southern States also, There never was a time when President making had go little danger in it as it has now; when there was so little to divide the nati and give rise to a factious spirit. Indeed, Grant is already chosen by the universal acclaim of the people, and we have only to go through the formalities of election. The consideration of these facts will relieve Mr. Johnson’s anxiety. The Millennium of the Eruisers. There must be something fatally provocative of pugnacity in the heat of these our dog days. For more than a week past not a day has clapsed without one or more merry mills between those lively lads the shoulder-hitters, either at some secluded spot in the suburbs of New York, or in some sporting house in town, or on some corner of Broadway itself. The prize-fight mania is raging. Newspaper re- porters rave of left-handers, and rib-roasters, and heavy sickeners on somebody’s nasal promontory; of blows that send the teeth rat- tling down somebody else’s throat, that lilt this one clear off his pins or send the other to grass, badly punished, and finally of throwing up the sponge. They have well nigh exhausted their vocabulary of slang in describing the recent numerous exhibitions of the manly art of self-defence. They are daily occupied in recording names destined, perhaps, to be illustrious in the annals of the P. R., but most of which have hitherto been quite unknown to fame. The catalogue has had a long sup- plement added to it during the past ten days, thanks to Bob Wade and Tom Kavanagh, the Infant Lawler and John Hagans, the Sheffield Chicken and the Ulster Pet, Jemmv Arms'rong and Pat Carroll, Tom Levy and Patsy Garvin, Patsy Hart and Tom Matfield, Steve Donnelly and Phil McConnell, Frank Sullivan and Tom Marney, John Provost and Tom Evans, Pat Canfield and Jim Hartegan, Tom MeCarthy and Jack Radway, not to mention other mus- cular heroes who have been drawing cach other’s claret or freely shedding their own in honor of the opening millennium of the bruisers, John Morrissey has fairly fought his way into Congress. Why may not his bro'her bruisers aspire at least to exemption from interfer- ence with their rough sports on the part of Superintendent Kennedy and his blue coats? ‘The latter, indeed, swear that they are already irrepressible, and fear they will remain so while the dog days last, if not for a thousand years. Bargaining for the Negre Vote, We have a report from Washington that the South Carolina white conservatives, or some of them, have proposed a political bargain with the blacks of the Commonwealth, to the effect that the conservatives will help to elect the candidates of the blacks for Congress, without regard to color, provided the blacks give the whites the control of the State government, ‘We suspect, however, that as there are four hundred thousand blacks against three hundred thousand whites in South Carolina, the former will turn a deaf ear to anything like the bar- gain suggested, holding, as they do, the power to take the members of Congress and the State government in their own bands in the work of reconstruction. The prospect is, therefore, somewhat gloomy for the South Carolina whites of the conservative party, although in most of the other States of the five military districts the republicans may look out for some opposition bargains in the interest of a negro candidate here and there for Congress, which will materially derange their plans and calcu- lations, Our City Mortality-A Week's Incrense. The bill of our city mortality last week footed up six hundred and seventy-cight, an increase of ninety-seven deaths, or nearly twenty per cent upon the bill of the week preceding. The hot weather of this last week was of course the main cause of this increased mortality ; but the miasmatic exbalations from filthy streets, sinks, sewers, cellars, holes and corners, and the immense quantities of poison- ous trash brought into the city in the shape of green fruits, and chiefly consumed by children, + will tell the regs of the story. Hence, in the} matter of enforcing cleanliness, and in restricg- ing a8 far as possible the consumption of this aforesaid poisonous trash in the shape of un- ripe fruits, some special duties devolve upon our authorities just at this season which ought not to be neglectod. Napoleon and the United States. What a surprising change, and a gratifying one to us, has come over the Emperor Napoleon with regard to this country! Two or three years ago the United States and everything re- lating to them were at a discount in the esti- mation and policy of his imperial Majesty. American citizens had to stand back in Paris, while the rebels were petted and lionized. This was when the nation was engaged in a fearful struggle for its life; when the Mexican empire and Latin race scheme was being tried, and when the monarchs of the Old World ex- pected to see this mighty republic dismem- bered. Now, distinguished American citizens are treated like princes. The Emperor Napo- leon, our telegrams from Europe inform us, gave a state dinner especially in honor of Ad- miral Farragut immediately on his arrival in Frenee. The Empress Eugénie, too, showed her appreciation of America by paying a special visit to the United States steamer Colo- rado at Cherbourg. Of course she was warmly received by our gallant sailors, for which she appeared highly gratified. But it is not in these incidents alone that their Majesties show marked consideration to America and Americans. At the great Paris Exposition our countrymen had not only the honor of carry- ing off many prizes, wh'ch were fairly won, but Napoleon was particularly gracious to the successful competitors and specially honored several of them. America and Americans are the rage now, and we should not be surprised to see withina short time a greater furor at Paris about our country than there was at the court of Louis the Sixteenth during our Revo- lutionary war. Napoleon bas learned, doubt- less, what the French people felt all along, that the friendship of this mighty transatlantic re- public is of great value to France. We shall have no more imperial or La'in race experi- men's on this continent. The monarchical Powers of Europe will not make another effort to break us up or limit our influence, but will vie with each other in courting our friendship. GENERAL GRANT.

Loxvoy, July 29—Noon. The sincerity of the repeated deniais put forth in the Moniteur of the war reports now current in Europe is doubted here.

Vinxwa, July 20, 1867, It is denied that the Hungarian national military or- ganization, known as the Honveds or National Guards, is to be re-establisned, though several meetings of tho Honveds of 1848 have recently been held in Hungary, with the object of effecting a reorganization.

After a long and — personal debate the Reform bill, which prac- tically changes the governmmt of Great Bri- tain from @ limited monachy to # limited democracy, was unanimously ywsed by the House of Commons, The great popuit struggle is over; the Dloodiess revolution is perféted. The House of Lords bas but to sanction the biliind the Quees to sign it, and then the English people di! have the power in their bands to effect whatever ther changes bs bred government they may please, passage 6 Reform bill ranks with the of the amendment tothe American Constitution ablishing slavery as one of the most pregnant incidents ¢ this century, and all details connected with it have the significance. ‘The House of Commons t# @ fing chamber for his- torical scones, tis very emall—p small that {t would not accomodate all of the memtie should they be pre. cot of ope tipearbat 4 Gosble fobitgctare, ie wala cotting of black walnut, elaborately carved, its ornamentation and the arrangement by which it is from the ceiling, give ita most picturesque Around three sides of the hall are galleries, cro to-night with interested observers, At the fo T sits the Speaker in bis robes, The members, ali their hats, are in front of bim, the Ministry on the hand, the Opposition on the leit, There w not ro ail the members to be seated comfortably, and stad behind the Spoaker’s chair, others get down the eté~e leading to the benches.

The simile funeral recurs again; for just that uncomfortab that low hum of commonplaces and that awkward ing about which prevail at funerals are noticeable during the preliminary formalities of the ovcasion. At last the third reading of the Reform bill is reac and, amid @ dead silence, Lord Cranborne rises to dress the House, You will remember that be is o the Derby Ministry who witadrew from the Cabinet cause he considered the Reform bill too radical, Jooks what he w—a good, sturdy Evglish nobleman ao uncompromising tory. Through him speaks small pure tory clique which Derby has not been lead nor Disraeli to cajole into a support of the measure, and he is aniversaliy respected for the o sistency with which he adheres to his opinions though they are wrong, Lord Cranborne began by precating a division upon the bifl. He said that he to the measure in every possibie way; but House had evidently determined to pass it, and no was to be gained by factious delays. ‘I seo, with e mous astonishment,’ he continued, “that the p: of this bill is spoken of as a conservative triamp Ho charged that, on the contrary, it was a rad triumph, and that tue bill had been dictated by Gladstone in a speech, “the stringency of whose guage could only have been justified by the c! those to whom it was addrossed."” Loud laughter ed this cut at the Cabinet, and Lord Cranborne to his work, speaking with the most intense bil and scorn, He attempted to show that the governn had yielded to every demand mad» by the oppositi and ho concluded this portion of his speech by say! “If it be aconservative triumph to have adopted principles of your most determined adversary ; if it a conservative triumph to bave introduced a bill ed with precautions and securities, and to have ab doned every one of those precautions and socari! the bidding of your opponenta, then ia the whole cour of your annals I venture to say that the conserv: party has won no triumph sosignal.” At this the position cheered tremendously, the ministerialiats ting sullen and silent. Lord Cranborne then pointed out the manner in whi the bill bad been managed. ‘The devates have carried on, not here, but in the lobbies; the p by which mombers have been indaced to agree measure which often contradicts all their previous lutions have not been made in the open light of The conservatives somewhat resemble the men who bold when no danger is prosent, but who, at the threat of battle, throw their standard into the mud seek safety in flight. No one seems to be agreed to the results of the tremendous revolution we making. We are making it absolutely in the dark. take no trouble to ascertain who these classes whom you are giving this power. If you like the tn which they do their work in trades unions you look with sanguine feelings upon the future of country. There is nothing more remarkable history than the instinct with which lower classes have always selected, for purposes which they desire to. carry out, men of the classes against whom they ure acting. Dep upon it, if any storm arises, if there is any question labor against capital, any question of occupation ags property, it will be no protection to you that youn bave men who belong to the class of proprietors or capitalists in this House, What I belicve is, that members of Parliament who will be returned under ‘bill will be wealtuy mon with Conservative insting and stecped to the lips im radical pledges. from the example of this session how much co tive instincts will avail with mba who are acting the fear that they will lose their seats.’’ These are bitter enough in themselves; but they gained doublo sting from the mannor‘of the orator, and were received in uneasy silence, since they struck at parties alike, Lord Cranborne then contended that about eight dred thousand new voters would be created by this aud that, in round numbers, the constituency of Ke land would be one million of the working classes five hundred thousand of the other classes. ‘Upon questions of foreign policy and of genera! policy, continued, ‘‘I see no reason to believe that the workis classes will come to aay other conclusions but what other sober and reasonable Englishmen come to. if ever you come to a question betwoon class and c where the interests of one class are, or seem to be, ted against those of another, you will find all securities of rank, wealth and influence in which trast are more feathers in the balance against the interests and genuine passions of mankiod. You as I have said, trust for the future in the work: classes. If they full your expectations I will and more than join, in all the eulogies you passed upon them, because they will do wi no class bas hitherto done in the histo of the world. They will stand alone am. the classes which history records as having the power of bettering their own interesis by lezislatio and who yet refrained from doing #0.” Having thanked the House for listening to the champion of fortorn cause, Lord Cranborne resumed bis attack the Cabinet, quoting from the former speeches of D raeli, Lord Stanley, Sir Stafford Northcote and Hardy to show the inconsistency of their prosont tion, and arrainging even Lord Derby, who, in 1852, clared himself “the bulwark against the advance democracy.” Ho ridiculed the statements of the n isters that they had not changed their opinions, quitted them of any but the purest and most patriot: motives, but begged them to desist from the worship mere success, He claimed that, compared with changes of the present ministers, the apostacy of Robert Poel was like light to darkness, and dec’ that such conduct would practically banish all hor bn men from the political arens and transform Engl statesmen into mere political adventurers. Lord Cranborne concluded, amid loud opp sheermg, by vehemently denouncing “the p morality on which the manwauvres of this year h beon based,’ regretting that “tho position of the Ex. ecutive should have been so degraded,” and that House “should applau policy of iegerdemain,”’ above all that “this great gift to the people should h been purchased by a political betrayal that has parallel in Parliamentary anaais."” Following Lord Cranborne, the champion of the ti aristocracy, came Mr. Robert Low p tive of the untitled aristocracy. Mr. Lowo is @ white-baired gentleman, with the Albiny eyes and o Plexion. He speaks rapidly and foently, more ike American than am Englisoman. Sr. Lowe began predicting an era of perpetual change and revoiuti “1 want to point out to the House,”’ he said, “that authorship of this Dill, for which rival candidates make} their appearance in the fists, a @ to be avoried and not au hoor to sought." He contended that the bil! was founded up the true democratic princip!*. Principle of @ existing in the individual pposed to general ex. pediency ; the principle Of numbers as against wealth am intellect." After elucidating this view and exposii some of the inconsistencies of the b ||, he proceeded argue that, os {n America, the democratic system m be adopted in full, that the relations between State Church mast be abolished; that an clectod Senate must) replace the House of Pecrs, that the intervals between} Parliamentary elections must be shortened; that Prime Minister must be chosen by popular vote, like the American President, aod be allowed to appoimt his own) Cabinet, “This woul mad love of iwnovation, but because your conduct hag) made it necessary, You bave forced om us inatita. tions which cannot be carried on tm any other way.
