Soper Mr. Gladstone’s Election Address and Piat- form of the English Radicals, ‘The Cunard mail steamship Russia, Captain Cook, from Liverpool the 10th and Queenstown the 11th of Oetoder, arrived at this port at an early hour yester- day morning. Her mail report has been anticipated to # great extent by the advices of the French stean- ship Pereire, published in the H&RALD yesterday morning. The Russia, however, brings our special correspondence in detail of our European cable tele- grams, Aspecial mail telegram from Madrid of the 8th instant reports that Admiral Farragut will soon sail for the United states. It is reported from Lisbon that the Duke de Mont- penster has written to the Emperor Napoleon stating that he would not accept the Spanish crown even if it were offered to him, The Portugese are fortifying several forts in the neighborhood of Lisbon. The latest English journals express the opinton that the discovery of the plot to depose the Sultan of ‘Turkey may lead to the most important results, The participation of the presumptive heir may be made, it is said, a pretext for changing the order of succes- sion, and the arrest or a Russian subject may pro- yore aconflict between the Sublime Porte and the Cabinet of St, Petersburg. ‘The Paris Etendard, referring to the announce- Ment of an extensive conspiracy having been dis- covered at Constantinople, says:— We are in a postion to state that, so far, no in- formation from a reliable source has been received to confirm this intelligence, If event of impor- tance had occurred in the Ottoman capital the im- Pperial government would certainly have received positive intimation of it. The accounts from Italy are more favorable. A Paris journal, remarking on the completion of the Italian Cabinet, says:— As now constituted, the Ministry may consider itself to have happily escaped from the ‘crisis that menaced it and on which the opposition seemed already to base hopes. at Florence, as in the pro- vincey, the public shows itself favorable to vigorous for the maintenance of order.

Prim’s Reception in Madrid—The ‘Tura Ont,” Parade and Weather—Forcign Flags Shown by the People—Appenrance and Dress of the General—A Call on Serrano— Enough ef Rejeiciug. MADRID, Oct. 8, 1968. As was anticipated, General, Prim’s reception by the inhabitants of Madrid was something long to be remembered. Old citizens confess that they have never seen anything like it before. The retarn of the army from its African campaign was made the occasion of @ tremendous popular and governmenta! manifestation, but that was comparatively insignifi- cant to the spontaneous outpouring of the masses yesterday to do honor to their beau ideal of a soldier and liberator, General Prim. Marshal Ser- rane was very handsomely received by the Popuiace, but there was nothing like the wild enthusiasm of “the mep, women and children who packed the streM& yesterday and waited hours for the appearance of the hero of the occasion. Ifa divinity had descended and passed through the streets he could not have been received with greater respect and honor than were shown General Prim. The people seemed to be delirious with delight; they shouted until their voices gave out aud waved their handkerchiefs and their hats as long as their muscles would perform their duty. The ladies were out in extraordinary force, and they were not second in testifying their affection and respect for the gallant General. White handker- chiefs fluttered fn the streets or from the balconies like @ furry of snowfakes and fans waved irresis- ubly, saying all sorts of charming things to the General, who seemed not to lose a word. ‘ibe day was auspicious for the event. The sky was clear and of that peculiar blue that is more often observed in Italy than in Spain, the sun shone cheer- futly on the streets of the city and seemed to warm the population into active life. It was more like a May than an October day, the air was so soft and balmy. At an early hour the people left thelr houses and began collecting in the Calle de Alcala, on the Prato, the Carrera St. Geronimo and ip the Puerta del Sol, At noon at least 300,000 people were con- gregated in the streets on the route of the proces- sion, At about three o'clock General Prim, accom- panied by a number of naval officers and his stat, arrived and were received at the station by the Cap- tain General Cabollera de Rodas, Lieutenant General Ros de Olano and a large sta. With the exception af a company of cavalry to lead the way there were no regular troops, ont, the volunteers doing pthe escort. About 20,000 of the ruilitia were in the pro- cession, and perhaps 5,000 studeuts, societies of all kinds and civilians gener '. A company of Catalans in their red fsherman caps and picturesque costume were with General Prim, and attract greatatiention iv the procession. So did a deputation of citizens from the litle town of Bejar, which made such a beroic defence against the troops a couple of weeks ago. They bore a splendid banner wreathed with laurels, but draped with crape, in commemoration of the dead patriots who fell in the splendid defeuce of liberty and their bomes, In the procession were borne innumerable ban- ners god flags, bearing patriotic inscriptions, such as—“ Viva la Soberania Nacwnat ! “Vrea el Sufra- gto Universal!" “Vivan el Byercitto y la Marina i” “Vea Prim I” ae. * At the head of the procession were the French, Italian and Swiss fags, borne by their respective a0 ‘who sung in a magnificent style the popu- lar airs of their native countries. The Italian society = ® Fong written in bonor of the occasion to rousie from the opera of *‘onna Clorita de Merca- dante,” which created great enthasiasui, and was evidently very satisfactory to General Prim, whose merits it recited, General Prim was mounted on one of the most magnificent Andalucian horses that I ever saw, and he rode him in a splendid style, The General was dressed in the greatest simplicity. le wore a single Ureasted blue coat, with but very little ornamenta- tion, bine trousers with @ gold stripe and a whie veat. beyond these he wore no other decorations. sabre was evidently more for service than appear- ance. A simple fatigue cap completed bis attire.

He rode between General Ros de Olano and the Cabaliero de Rodas, Captain General of New Castile, both of whom were in fall anifurm, with the broad ribbon of the Order of Ferdinand across the treaa: and any number of minor crosses and orders. Prim’s sunple attire contrasted finely with their magnificent costumes, It took several hours for the procession to move over its appointed course, and General Prim was uncovered for most of the time, acknowledging with bows and smiles the (hun ing viras that rolled along the crowd as he passed ‘The people tried to rush in and tonch him, and escort was able of people clus vering round him and striving to reach htm.

Mr. Gindstone’s Election Address, The following is Mr. Gladstone's address to the electors of Southwest Lancushire, printed in Loudon on the 10th inst. :— GENTLEMEN—From yon, the electors of the south- western division of the county of Lancaster, | solicit arenewal of the trust which was confided to me in 1865, in a manner demanding from me peculiar Gre re southern a by the constituency of the ent iaton. I then came before "ge as the advocate of a policy of trust in the people, tempered by prudence and averse to violent and hasty ch: . In the spirit of that profession I was a party in 1866 to proposals for the extension of the franchise, which | thought the smallest that could meet the just claims of the un- enfranchized classes and which wére studious! limited in order, if possibie, to disarm jeal- ousy, prejudice and fear. We were met by an opposition, not, indeed, as direct, but yet as persevering and detrimental, as was ever offered to any measure. At length & point was reached at which the government of Earl Russell found that the resignation of their offices ap) to be the most becoming method by which they could secure the eart resigned accord- ingly. The result was that the copoeent of redac- tion in the franchise took office and found themselves compelled by the public sentiment, after much vacil- lation, to make proposals on that subject, which, though not only narrow, but strongly reactionary in the shape in which they were presented to Parii ment, issued in the passing more democratic than the bill whic! were told by the highest authority, would reduce our institutions to the patiernof the American Republic. From the ex! ive, though unequal, entranchise- ment whioh has thus Leen secured for the people past ex) ice and all present signs leaa me to wotictpate increased strength for our institutions and a orous march, both of legislative and administrative policy. The bilis which have been passed, and especially that relating to Et introdneed by the govern- ment, but amend alinost transformed by the opposition, present the marks of conficting handi- work and jend a doubtful aspect to a settlement which ought to have been conclusive. One potut, maeed, I fear that the experience of the present year already proves to be not only of great but also of [ar J importance. In 1867 289 gentlemen voted hat the borough franchise, founded on rated occu- pation, should be enjoyed alike, whether the rates were laid on the owner or onthe occupier, The rejection of this proposal by Parliament, under the menace of the government to drop the bill #f 1t were carried, has led to gretvous inconvenience and vexa- won in a ki number of boroughs. These you will readily believe that we who stroggled hard to avert them shali be not less anxious under more favorable auspices to remove, ‘The rapid growth of weaith, especially among the classes Of the greatest activity and ente led, for a number of years past, to a diminished wutchfulness, outside the walis of Parliament, re- specting the great and cardinal subject of economy in the public charges, and the relation between the | tneome of the State and its expenditure. | earnestly desire that the paramount Interest of the lately en- franchised classes in thrifty administration may ope rate powerfully to bring abont a change. This | dency cannot but be strengthened by the present decline of ihe permauent revenue, and by the addi- tion, since the present government took office, of three milous (in round numbers) to the war. ‘This increase has extended not less to the civil then In the mwilltary and naval departments, In my opinion it has not been jastified either by the wishes bs the Country or by the demauds of the public servicer, { perceive with satisfaction that attention has of late been racreastugly directed to the local ¢ rT of the country. Their amount, the manner of their incidence and the means provided for their adrainis- tration and control appear to demand catefal con- sideration. It will, in uy opinion, be just and potitic to allow to ratepayers, by the priuetple of representa tion, & control over county expenditure, No question i at the prevent day more complicated by differences of opinion than that of primary edu- eation, But all are agreed both upon tis vitat im. portance and upon it# pressing urgency, In the year 188¢ Karl Rassell, for the governinent of Lord Met- vourne, placed upon o‘iciat record the desire of her Majesty tat tue rights of cor should be re- pected and that the youth of th uniry should be religiously brought up.

From the London Spectator, Oct. 10.j Mr. Disruell’s “word of power’ to the electors of Buckinghamshire came forth this day week as if it had. been jured into life by our demand; and very powerful it was, in a ear alipolns of view. It recited that the Prime Minister enjoyed “the en- Sroana anneRe. gaaneemn al the Earl of perby for twenty years,” ie fore, ‘thorot acquainted with his ean aad thar he has bird that policy without deviation,” unieas Pesnance, in thar little Lord whether the wit in the direction of “develling up.’ He takes credit of course for ci ing in 1967 and 1868 a Parliamentary. refo1 Mi in its principles,” but for hts high princiciple in success: dually iting which—or rather something much less broad—he had taken oredit in his address to the same electors in 1865. He insists te on the ad- mirable conduct of foreign affairs durilfg hin adimin- istration and on the success, both moral, and, physi- cal, of the Abyssinian campaign. tie rather unhap- congratulates the country on the increased strength of the navy—the forty littie wooden shi added to it by Sir John Pakington—on the compie- tion of for our fortresses, which have only been tested a the resi lon of the liberal govern- ment; and on the conversion of the Enileld rifles, which would have been delayed for years but for the Prussian war, He is great on the new office of comptroller institated in the War Office, which he deacribes inaccurately. He descants on ‘the energy and moderation with which the Irish disaffection been sup] and professes the greatest alac- rity for any Irish reforma which are ‘consistent with the rights of ty and the maintenance of our Protestant i tons.’? Such is og el Mr. Disraeli’s official ictly entiquarian, not con- taining a single forecast of his future policy, either towal Ireiand or any other of the empire. ‘The rest of hia address ts all puffy invective against Mr. Gladstone's proposal for disestablishment and disendowment of the Irish Church, and @ hasty bat terrific outline of the designs of the Pope op England, expressed in sonorous Lew which Johngon would have envied, and to which Gibbon could not have given a volume more rotund. mented on this nobie suficiently eisewhere. ‘The only fit answer for this part of Mr. Dtsraeli’s ad- dress would be in far too beautiful for us to compose, but which we may venture to borrow. We might tell him that the Papal revival of which he is “an unusual puenomeuon, on which some have d with wonder and some with hat ing hair shook bigotry and chains, inquiry will find to be only # meteor formed by the vapors of putrefy- ing opinion, which, after plunging te followers in a bog, Will leave us ——— why we regard it.” Per- haps that ts not quite ap to the Prime Minisier’s rheto- vical mark, Wut it closely approaches it.

In short, difference of opinion from hiniself is the one thing which “A Buckinghamshire Landlord” will not permit on his estate. ‘These amiable sentiments cannot be considered as exactly new, They have simply formed the basi« of evi litical aud reli- gious persecution which has afficted mankind since the world began.

Whatever troubles may threaten Burope, there ts at least one reassuring sign—that everywhere the mass of the people are beginning to take an interest in’ politica! events, and, consequently, to infuence them, The commenatty wilt henceforth m every country make is own history. There are more and there are less advanced races, but west of the Russian frontier there is no country where the people do not hear the language, even though it be sometinies the caut, of iberalisin, and where their opinions do not tore or less affect the acts of their governments, This is a hopeful sign amid the darkest prospects of the fature.

But at present the agitation in that part of the world shows no sign of abatement. inglish readers would not be disposed to follow minutely the ob- secure politics of the least known part Europe, even if the events of the West and of the New World were of less absorbing interest; but at the present ume there is, in the opinion of many who have the means of judging, » connection between the fortunes of these provinces and the geueral politics of Rurope which invites attention, * * * The recent vic of Hungary has been 80 complete that tt might well inspire the sister pro- vinces of the empire to demand something for them- selves.

Can they satisfy these longings and turn dualism into pluralism—that is, into loose confederation of pro- vinces, united ae by ® common allegiance ‘to the imperial house? Or will the conviction among the provincials that this semi-independence must weak- en them each and all induce them to abate their tensions? Compared with the complicated relations of the Austrian empire our Western States, one and indivisible, have the simplest of aystems.. Yet it may be reserved for this part of Europe to devise schemes of associated government to which the West has nothing’ analogous, and the lesson it teaches perhaps one day be tmproved by the permanent. eration of Europe.
