THE STATE OF EUROPE.ff*roan Our Own CurretpmideDt.

London, Tuesday, Aug. 4, I-.".7.Tbe full official dispatches received by the Over,

fctvjei Mad <-outain several lofportant facts tbat havescarcely been sufficiently commented upon by theLondon press, which is rather unwilling to speakout boldly tbe whole truth. After their publication,it is really ludicroua to speak about a Brahminconspiracy and the undue pampering of tbe Bengalarmy, since the dispatches show tbat the mutinyhas spread likewise to irregular Sikh and Goorkahregiments; tbat the native contingents of the K«jahof G waller and of tbe Holkar have rebelled andmurder, d the European officers; tbat tbe Gnioo war

(King of Baroda) is distrusted and suspected; tbatSir Henry Lawrence had to fall back from Luck-now to Cswnpore, and even further; tbat is tosay, that he bad to evacuate the kingdom ofDude; while in the south the mutinous spiritbaa begun to show itself in tbe dominions ofthe Nizam (King of Hyderabad). By thesemisfortunes, Kngland is of course only stimulatedto greater exertion, and there can scarcely beanyaioubtas to the ultimate result, viz: the reconquestof India. Hut iu the menu time, aud for some yearsto come, England's power is crippled, and LordDalhousie's reckless policy of annexation revengesit*c|t fearfully, not only on the unprincipled abettorsof this scheme of bold robbery, but likewise on those.Abo, abhorring the principle, havo accepted its re¬

sults. The last annexation. I mean that of Oudoiseems to be one of the causes of the present mutiny,.lid things do not becune better by the arrest of theex-King, which brings the East«luilin Governmentinto suspicion that it seeks an excuse for withdraw¬ing the pension of £ 120,000 a year due to the un¬fortunate ex-King. A gentleman holding a kiyhposition in lieugal writ. " to a triend io England,alter having given some details about the insurrec¬tion :

"We have not been helped in this trial by the un¬

principled conduct of tue authorities in the mutter ofthe Uude annexation. Throughout the entire coun¬

bad been taken ou the 17th. It bad some influenceon the funds, but it is believed to be a hoax similarto that of the fall of Sevastopol about eleven months

Svious to the actual capture of the town. Theicult.es of England are, now ever, not limited to

India. The Chinese expedition üas been divertedfrom its destination, and Governor Vek iu»y stillboast of having exjKdled the red-haired barbariansfrom Canton, though Sir Michael Seymour audCommodore Keppel gallantly sweep away all thestar-junks from tbe Cautou waters. Still more

important is now the Persian difficulty, since Eug-land is not in tbe position immediately to resume thestar fl the Shah should refuse to keep the treaty ofpeace; it is even questionable whether Busbire«.©uld be held for any length of time. It is, there-ton', rather serious to hear from the Indian paperstbat information had been received at Hushire stal¬

ing that the Parsiau commander at Herat has re-

fuaed to ev at uate that place, aud to acknowledge the,treaty. Mr. Murray sent a dispatch to England iuti-¦natmg that the terms ot the late treaty have no chanceof being fulfilled. And, while Englaud's difficultiesore increasing from the Persian Gulf to the ChineseSen, Prince Menchikoff seems to have lent hisfamous topcoat toM. Thouvenel, the French Km-bassador ot Constantinople, who. with au effronteryworthy of a Napedeomc servant, insists upon theduuuisaul of the Kaiinakun of Moldavia, and tho de-t'laratioti that the Moldavian elections are null audvoid on account of the undue exertion ot Govern-luent influence. The poof Sultan resisted such a

degrading demand, and the Kreuch EwbaasadOT broket»fl diplomatic relations. The r» suit was a changeof the Turkish Ministry. Kedshid 1'asha,Lord Stratford do Hedcliflo's man, bad to yieldto Mttstapha Pasha of Crete, and to Aalit»aaha.that is to say, to the same personswho wen- displaced a year ai;o for not having hoes,atifficiently I ttglish. Lord Stratford de Bedcltffe'sinfluence in Constantinople declines, and Prance,acting in concert with Prussia, Sardinia and Ruuia,carries everything with a high hand io Turkey,fehould tbe Indian difficulties not be surmountedWithin the next three months, then we may see au

open alliance between Napoleon and Alexander.Luder such circumstance*, the visit of the Emperorto Osborue looks really as if it were for takingleave.

Napoleon's high treason case dwindle- down tosuch miserable pn.portious as to strengthen the sus¬

picion that the ollair was got up solely with tbe in-

lent of frightening L«dru Kollin away from England,. similar atratagem having been resorted to lor in¬ducing liastkie to flee from Paris. Both schemesitave tailed, and proclaim now the weakness of the

Imperialist Government. Thr Daily Surr says:.' According to a correspondence iu the IndepmJ-

amce Kiltrr, tne I*rocurour Imj«erial will be compelled,tor want'of evidence, to abandon the clau«e in the in¬dictment that the plot of which Tibaldi, Ac, are ac-cuaed bad 'received a commenccrriont of execution.li thia be so, the prisoners cannot be sentenced to cap¬ital pUBishment, and the pk t at once assumes con¬

temptible proportions, considering the immense toisawhich the M made in heralding it forth to thearorld. A eaaa of hi*h treason, without any overt act,and att.-et.-d by aptee and approvers, deserves to bevenr narrowly seruiinw<si by the public."Tbe King of Wurteinherg has arm id at Paris topay his respects to Emperor Napoleou, w ho trevitsIiis royal guests from Germany in an off hand way.Tbe King arrived on Saturday, and the Emperorl.-.n er Paris to-day ft* Oaborne. Count TTolswahlaccompanies him, and it is, therefore, aaid that Na¬poleon inteoda to come to an underatanding w ith theLuglish Government about all the principal points ofEuropean importance.the Moldavian quest mn andthe Suez Canal included. If such ia really therase, we may be sure that the result cannot be satis¬factory, a. r. t.

ceived doctrine of the Roman Catholic Charttj,ana in a< o pting tie principle that luairiage should bedissoluble for two or three causes, of which adultery,of. our.-e, was the most common, but if there was

anything in whicn tbe reformation was more thanasuaily lad mph-te it wa< the mode af dealing with theecclesiastical tribunals. Those tribunals, instead -i

beiag subjected to the ordinary rules af law, and re¬

garded as Koyal Courts, receiving their authorityfrom the t'rewn. and administering the eosamon law>f tbe land, were permitted to retain their ecclesiasti¬cal < hara'-ter. to ejen we their own peculiar lamcti-uis,and to administer their own pecui ar principles. Theresult was that. altliougB for a couaueeAblc period,probably be nearly a entury. arter the Kefonnationmairiage was regarded as a boud ef anioo. dissolublefor aotltery yet about the omniencement of theseventeenth century the old doctrine was restored bya decision of the Star t.'bamber, and the ecclesiasticalcourts were found not to have the power of giving a

divorce ü rintulo ttsrfrintewti. Tnus the imperfectjuris diction of the ecclesiastical tribunal* was again es-

tabli-hed, and no other court was armed with au¬

thority to e» v-T the t.e of marriage on the ground ofaoulteiy. 1 he matter remained in that statu, lateTTUpt-«d, of course, during the DUM of the r immouwealth.until Parliament, coining to tbe relief of the law,anc of what might be called the nec.-s-ttles of thecountry, eatabliebed that system of granting dirofceswhich had since been adu ini-t.-'ed ttiroiigh the me¬

dium of a legislativ* assembly, but upon principlespur>-ly jud eJoX It was an uudonfeted fa. t, therefore,Ibat tr>m tin-time of the Kef >rmarion until now thenecessity ot having a change in the purely ecclesiasti¬cal law, and th-- necessity of introducing the principlethat marriage should be dis-oluble for adultery, hadbeen reeogi i/ed by tbe L-gi-Iature, aod, for a consid¬erable peru d, by the ecclesiastical tribunal*. Ante¬rior to Iba Kefonnation, the unreasonable law of theindissolubility of marriage was, to a certain extent,atoned for in the way in which unreasonable Uwswere always met, vi/..: by the introduction of a vastnumber of fictions, evasions an 1 grounds for escapingthe operation of tbe law, and the praciical result, as

teetihed by all the historians and jurists of the time,wa-, that it was easier to obtain a divorce j rtacWomatnnh nu anterior to the Reformation than after theprinciples of the Reformation had become established.The decision of the Star Chamber iu the Koliiambecase, limiting the jurisoie-tiou of the ecclesiasticali-ourra, was given ab«ut the year 1009, andvery she-rtly alter the Restoration the legisla¬ture began to give relief to the- country bythe introduction of a system of Parliamentarydivorcee. Now, when they spoke of legislative iut<*r-htUUCO, and called it nothing more than the pvsiug ofpeculiar laws to meet peculiar emergencies, denomi¬nating the-ee- judicial sentences of Parlia.neTit as mere

arsvsfrgM, they used language altogether inaccurateand inapt. Tte aduiini.-lration of jnatic* upon settle!prineiples previously established, and according torubs previously fixed, was a judicial act, and it matter¬ed not whether the duty was discharged by a bodycalling itself a Legislature, or by two or three indi¬viduals' silling m an oruinary ouuit of justice. Thatinteib rchce on the part of Parliament was in truth a

judic inl interference prompted by the necessities of tbecountry, and was the only mode by which juettoe oouldbe administered in the ¦notnoo of any regular tribunalahieb should be the habitation and seat of the principleof the law. That was the meide in which tin- law ofdivorce bad been regularly idndniateiud by the Legis¬lature for U period Ol 150 ynaia. Parliament, and theHouse'of I.ords in particular, had laid down generalrules affee ting applicatii.ns (of elivorce, regulating theform of proe-t'i ure, and determining the eiriumstuxe-e-sunoer which an aggrieved party might apply for a di¬vorce1. It was impossible, therefore, tej eletiy that a

law of divorce, well kimwn uml well understood, ad¬ministered upon settleet rules, had prevailed in thiscountry for nearly two I'e-nturies, by which itwas hehl that marriages were- capable of beingannulled. He was anxious to lay down that positionat first, as it bad become too common among criticsand sjw akcrs upon the aabjoet to declare- that by lawmarriage was ineapable of bnfcag iMaaehread,und sii hstatements, mply ug that the bill he was about to pro¬pose woulo effee t a complete- dkOUge in our system oflaw a- to divorce, tended to create a bootil* lunliog to¬ward the measure. H«- had indoOTOred lo prove bya s i.-r.t historical deduction that we had at present inthe House of Lsirdsa tribunal for that purjsmm proe ced¬ing Ufs'ii certain aud jeermunently settled rule*. Iuthe-course of the jurisdiction exercised by the H »useot Iti rde, and after them by the Heiusc of Commonscertain e xceptions bad been established to the genera]pnuciplc that marriage was dissoluble for adultery;and ti e rule of the law might bo thus simply de-crfbed: An injured husband who established a oast-

again-t his WHS was entitled to a divorce, unb-sa itcould be proved that he had been guilty e>f ooUnaiooor of oounivuuoo, unless Le was ojien to recrimination,and bad been guilty of acts which would en¬title the wife to be separated from him by adeire<- of the- Ecclesiastical (\»urt. Theue rulesbad been establishe-el as to the right of the hus¬band lo obtain a divore, but certain conditions hadalso beeu impose d by the House ol Lords which, ex-e ept under peculir circumstances, they were not inthe habit ot relaxing. It was necessary that a man

Sacking a divorce should first prove tbe adultery in

the EodetiestlPnJ Court, and obtain from that tribunala decre-e for a divorce it nunui ft tkoro. He muttalsei, in cases where it was j>os.-ibIe, bring an action atlaw against the adulterer--that action for criminalcorive isalion, which had beeu termed the reproach ofour laws [HeaT.bcurj. Iu that action he must againprove tbe adulteiy, and having established his c-.ise inthat ppH-e'-ding, tie was entitle d to apply to the Houseof Leads to be again permitte d te> prow the adulterybefore that tribunal, if fee suce-essfully proved hisinjury e.u those three ooenetoan, he- was th,-a allowedto receive a dive rce * f-tatrnf* m*ttrimoniL With re¬

spect to the wife, those who had studied the subjectwould bo aware that the rule at present was that forsimple adultery on the part of the husbanel, the wifewas not entitled to a tftfofOO, but the HoofSS of Lardsbad established tbe practice that a wife was entitledto a divore>e against he-r husband if she e ould provethat bus adulteiy was also incestuous, or that the adutery had been attended with such aggravated cin uui-

stancee as rendered it utterly impowible- Ibat the wifeceiuld be expected to live again with her husbaud.Thete were the rules established by the House ofLead- and acted upon by that tribunal, which formeda*, present tbe law of divjro* as administered by tbeIlia L Court of Parliament. It was the object of thebill which he now submitted to the House to em¬

body that law. There was one particular ouly in whichile bill went beyond the present law in favor of theinjured woman, and that was in cases of adultery at¬tended with nialicioa* desertioo. iu all other respect*the bill ad to r- d t j what bad long been the umver-

eally understood rule for the adminn-tratiou of ju-tieein hi g -and with regard to divorces. That being tbestate of the case, as far as the bill was concerned hethought the House would agree that it containednothing more than the expression of tbe exit-ting lawaid a plan for transfening tbe administra¬tion of that law to a tribunal by whichjastice could be dene in a more convenientmanner and without those difficulties of f-.ruiand procedure which were of Loceesity in-Me;t to legislative proceedings. That was

the first great and cardinal object of thebill. But the bill, while it embodied the

present law, altered most materially the form ofits procedure. That it should be necessary to provethe adultery in three fliffeient courts, and once in tbeabsence* of the wde through the medium of thai Bootabominable proceeding tiie action for trim, t$i .. hadbeen held to be a great reproach tt this country, l uebill, therefore, proposed that one simple form of pro¬cedure should be ad.-'.t.-d by which the whole case

might be thoroughly aifted and examined.the injuredhusband appearing as the plaintiff against the twoother parties brought into court to coute-t his applica¬tion ftr a divorce, viz: tbe wife and the adu.te r- r.

Therefore the form of procedure would be changedentirely, and the action whieh now constituted so ob¬jectionable a feature of the present system would begot rid of. The law would remain the same, but themed« of its aelrninistration wouid be changed.

Hon«. Kum,, Jane i<>, l-,'7,The principal etent of the last two- weeks has

been the active operations of the English fleet uptbe river, both below and above Whampoa. It maynot be amiss to give a brief sketch of localities herein order to a better understanding of operations.From Houg Kong to Whampoa *s about sixty miles,the greater part of the distance being through a

kind of archipelago. The islands are so thicklyscattered that one seems to be continually in a cliannel or river of greater or less width all the woy,when in reality it is a bay of the seu he is travers¬ing, and salt water often it found within ten milesot Wham p. i. Ev.n the river proper is so dividedby islands that you s.-.-m to harte half a dozen smallriters, instead of one srr.-at one. These channels,.or "reaches," as the) are called.have constantlyafforded shelter to swarms of Mandarin junks anil"snake boats:" these last being a long, low kindol boat, pulling from torty to eighty oars, and mount¬ing two or three guns of small caliber. They arerascally concerns, making no noise in the water, andut they draw only twelve or e.gbtceu indies of watercan easily elude pursuit. There was a large fleet ofthese junks and baats which occupied what is ealleyiEscape Cre.-k. a narrow stream which enters thenver a few mil»-a be-low Whasapoa. and thes.- havedone great damage, rir.ug upon the river ets*aMnand seizing upon unsrmed lorchas. which thev plun¬dered and burned. All Europe-ans taken were mur¬dered, and their heads «etit to Canton tor tne Gov¬ernor's cabinet.None of tbe large ifoeJBera could get within two

miles of the mouth of the ,-rcek. aud so the Chineseut-e.1 to amuse themselves by keeping out of gun¬shot fill the war *t>«mera passed, and then ruuningout to plunder tiil tbey came back. Tbe arrival olthe gun-boats, however, has quite interfered withthis past.mo, and lost w.-ek an unexpected dash was

made into the creek, and before John Chmatvaneould put away his chopsticks and tie his tail aroundhis head twtnch, I believe, are the first preparationsfor action according to Celestial tactics; half thefleet was sunk, and the balance in lair way to be.Everybody says, "Good enough for tbe scoundrels;"and as we learn how the Mini''- rifles " strewed the" rice fields with fallen fugitive's.-' while grape andcanister swept the surface ot the water, alive withswimming or drowning men, we, Christians, ruhour hands and say, "A tew more euch lessons." Jtc

Doubtless, this horrible work it necessary : hutstill, when the returns show such butcbery^-suchdreadful loss of life on their side, accomplishe j w itha hat of only ten men wounded on part of the attack¬ing party, 1 confeas the Jeeling of exultttion is some¬what dampened, and a sentiment of pitv takes itsplace for the poor wretches who, unpaid" and halfstarved, are compelled to make a show of resistanceto save their heads.But tbe great battle occurred last week io

what is ceiled M Fatshsn Creek,' just oppositeCanton, twelve miles above Whampoa. Ilere waacollected a leet of nearly 800 war junka, averaging

at the least ten guns each, Wide aotne betters* so?bore. And vet, eighty ships' beat*, almost laatt?ported by artillery (tne water being too at*aJjB t.the gunboats even;, daahed in, took the fmruburned tbe fleet and oVatrtryed, in all ssstsC?thousands of tbe poor scoundrels, who Couht a *

tight and dare not run.To be sure, tbm was no trifling fight. Tha

Chinese were prepared. They had staked off *

portion of the river, aud by practice had got theirguns to bear upon it; so when the bosi came tothe stakes there was such a storm of shot pouredinto tbt-ai that tbe aad» wonder is how say escapedYet the whole loss «>t the attacking party WM ^killed and thirty wounded.
