Reply of the London Times to Mr. Roia!:, We publish upon an inside page to-day a letter ; from 'Mt. Roebuck to the London Times. The following is the Timea's reply: 1. . "We aro glad to see that Mr. Roebuck is sufficiently conscious of the extraordinary cha racier of his remarks at Sheffield to think it necessary to defedd them; but it would have been more satisfactory if ho had frankly , expressed regret for them. We are accustomed to make allowance for the vehemence of his la and look through his exAggerations to his intentions; but rudeness to a guest is an offence which no intentions can excuse; and when the dis courtesy wad offered in public to a public guest, it became our .duty, on the part of the public, to disclaim and rebuke it. In Mr. Roe buck's letter this morning we cannot discern any , valid justification of his speech. On the contrary, his first plea may well be considered to bring the offence into stronger light. Mr. Reverdy Josenlte tells tis,did not take the observations in question as an Insult. On the contrary, he has eXpressed himself in the most handsome terms in acknowledgment of his reception at Sheffield. and of Mr. Roebuck's personal exer tions on his behalf. In other words, Mr. &wady Johnson is too generous to take offence, and Mr. Roebuck interprets this generosity as a justifiers tion of his having taken advantage of it by an-, ticipation. It Is , bad enough , to be rude to a friend; it is worst of all to presume on his good nature In venturing on your rudeness, and it is only a depot worse to plead his good nature in excuse after the offence. Mr. Roebuck does not seem to remember the proverb about returning good for evil, and so heaping coals of fire on your enemy's head; and ills evident that the pro cess produces no effect on Kr. Roebuck. The forbearance of Mr. Johnson deserves a cordial acknowledgment; but to quote it in disproof of any offence having been offered him is equally ungenerous and illogical * * After all. Mr. Roebuck's plea that Mr. Johnson was not sensible of any disrespect having been offered to the 'United States is sufficiently refuted by the tact that he thoturht it necessary thus to vindicate his country. Even supposing there had been any truth in Mr. Roebuck s observations, it would still have been the height of bad taste to make them in Mr. Johnson's presence on such an occasion. Mr. Roebuck prides himself on speaking the truth; but there is, at least, a time for every thing, and there are occa.sions .when the sort of character Mr. Roebuck emulates is painfully inop po: tune. It is possible that Mr. Reverdy Johnson may be happy to listen private to the oracular utterances which Mr. Roebuck thinks !M . AI ible; but in a public reception of as American Repre sentative, when the object of all was to cultivate good will, it amounted to nothing less than an injury to both countries for a man in Mr. Roe _buck_a position-to use-language--cif-such—veke-- rnent disparagement. We - only hope Mr. Bever dy Johnson will not fail to take notice that the Jesuit has been repudiated by Engli sh public opinion with equal vehemence and with perfect unanimity. He may form soma measure, of the honor , in unanimity...: we hold, his cotintry by the, prompt recoil from Mr. Roebuck's words which he everywhere witnesses."

LONDON, Sept. 20, 1868.—Telegrams to hand in this city from Madrid, dated in the Spanish capi tal yesterday evening, the 10th knit., convey the highly Important Intelligence that the. Queen's Admiral, wholemang the naval force oft Cadiz, with th of the men serving under his orders, has revolted against Isabella's govern ment—the result of a political revolutionary agi taticn which has been silently but actively pro gressing among the royal sailors since the period of the bantihment of the military generals and the exile of the Duke`and Duchess de Montpen der. The generals so lately sentenced to banish ment have- returned from, as they allege, the places assigned to them under the royal warrant: General 'Cabala from Lugo, Marshal. Serrano from the Canary Isles, with his nephew. M. Lo pez Dominguez, commandant of artillery and formerly deputy in the Cortez ; General Cabal lero de Rods, arrested at Zamora, from the Ba-, tearie Isles; General Cordova- from-- Bareelonnot Flgueras, and General Etchagae from the direc tion of Pampeluna,Gen. Ras de Giants from Deva, COTTIIIO from Estella in Navarre, Ustarla from Teruel. kiesina from Ateca, and'Alaminos -from Ronda. Marshal de la Torre headed the move ment, sad the leading men of the old O'Donnel list party sustain it. Several towns have joined in the insurrection, and the most intense panic prevailed at the Court in Madrid. Troops were despatched with all haste to the South; General Concha having been commissioned to command the loyalist forces. , Futile attention is recalled by these startling_eventalcithe protest issued by the Duke and Duchess de Montpensier from Liabon;after their sixtic - in -- the month of August, in which they said : But if we were to consider it opportune to -tiefend ourselves - against—lmputations—hidden under transparent allusions. when we are re minded of the duties of loyalty whichAt is unne cessary to recall to your Majesty; if unhappy Spain is now passing through a difficult situation —which we deplore with all our hearts—we are not the generating cause. The origin of the lamentable agitations which serve as a pretext to condemn us, if it exists at all, must be sought elsewhere. Whenever the, nation is agitated it is because it is tormented by seri ova uneasiness, for there are neither In dividualities nor names powerful enough. I to serve as standards and to drag a nation after them. We protest energetically against this manifest violation of the fundamental law of the State and also of the eternal principles of Justice, in the steps that have been taken by your Majesty's government, and for this pur poee we do not invoke either the considerations of our rank or of family ties. * * * The country la agitated, the revolutionlate avail them eelvea of your name as of a standard and, take it as the object of their machinations. Such'are the just considerations upon which is based your extra-legal proceeding,- a step derogatory to our position, of which you have , intentionally made mention to abuse us the snore.

Pants, Sept. 20, I.B6B.—The journals here. ; have reports that a general movement against the Queen has commenced in Spain, and that it is headed by Gen. Prim and by the•generals who were recently exiled. Some accounts say that the rebels are moving upon Madrid in force. SOME. The French Occupatloia of itome. Bays the Paris correspondent of the H. Y. Times: The cable will have - transmitted to you before this a statement forwarded from Rome through the Correspondence Havas to the effect that the Pontifical Government has received the assurance that the Fres& brigade will not be re called so long as the advancedparty in Italy has any chance of returning to power. Bo far is this from being the fact that considerable progress has been - made in the negotiations be tween the Frenth and Italian Govern ments for the total recall of :ttin. French troops. The, Emperor is eagerly desirous to, put an end to the embarrassments arising from the occupation, and as the Government of, Italy is , equally anxious to terminate a state , of things which is a atanding humiliation for it, there la no ,reason why an arrangement should not be'arrived at which will reconcile the difficulties hitherto existing. The replacement of M. de Bartiges by Id. de Bonneville is in itself evidence that important modifications are pending in the relations between the French and Pontifical Governments. It certainly cannot be merely to vary the form of the occupation that a Minister is removed who Is 'known to be an especial favorite with the Holy Father, and re placed by a diplomatist whose opinions and an tecedents are not likely to prove so agreeable to him. There is another fact which would go to confirm the belief that the occupation is about to reach its term. The Pope, yielding to the remonstrances of France, has at last entered upon a policy of retrenchment, commencing it by reducing the departments of the government to two, those of the Ministries of Foreign Affair* and of the Interior. If these be followed by the other political refortins urged by the Emperor, all pretext for the further reten tion of French troops in Rome would at once disappear. But in any case,' as that city , is now well fortified 'against any at tack by the revolutionary party, and thti Govern ment of Victor; Emmanuel appear to be willing to accept a modus stoma& which, will guarantee the Roman territory against any act of aggr on on its part, France , would be safe in withdrawing its troops. Certainly, nothing would conduce more to-neutralize the efforta of Garibaldi and-the '- Red Republicans, •or to promote the generalint_ teresta of peace. • , POIXLIOAL. , The Leadin g Democratic iournal radiates ithe Duplicityolythe New, 4 Ter.kilftnild.

It takes a Southernlzed Yankee, a renegade Radical, a pap-seeking leech to squirm and Ile, and make faces to snit the emergency, but they never deceive anybody, and in time meet the contempt they richly merit. G eneral Butler on the Election. A reporter of the N. Y. Merald had a "talk" with General Butler on Saturday, and extracted from him the following opinion of the results of the election Reporter—What is your opinion, General, of the prospects of the election? General Butler—Oh, Grant and Colfax are eer- Lain to be elected. There is no doubt about that. They will carry all the States that Lincoln carried in 1864, eXcept perhaps New York, and the Democrattenotaln - atieria — Were - made with a view to just such a result. 1 know your New York politicians very thor oughly, and I regard the whole trick of Sey mour's , - nomination - att - designed - tniply to se cure the State of New York. That is more im portant to them than the Presidency, and they would rather see Seymour beaten than not, pro vided that his name aids them to win the election in this State. They know that the whale Re publican party is bitterly opposed to Seymour, and they:would willingly trade him off in order to carry in their State ticket. The electoral ticket-lher'eartxtothbeor, - - - exenpFitait - may afford them capital to_ trade off for_votea _for their State candidates. Indeed, your New York leaders would not on any account see Bey- - mour elected. They are after the State and looal Spoils, and would not desire the - dection of any Democratic President unless they could use him as they pleased. Yon have some twenty-five tninions of local taxation here, and the handling of that and the State patronage is worth more to your Democratic leaders than, all the federal patronage they could secure. Reporterts--You think, thcn,that Seymour has no chance of an election? Geveral Batler—Oh, not the ilightest; and it is very ;veil for him that he has not. If it were pos sible that he could be elected he would no; be ninety days in office. The knife, the ballet or poison would remove him and make room for Blair. Assassination has been introduced by the rebels Into our political system, and they will never hesitate now to avail themseiveb of it when their-interests-are atetake.- Their first-experi ment in that line has been. toe great a - success. With them the ties of blood, affection or loyalty will, no longer avail to prevent the friends of the second in power from remov ing the first oat of the way when the opportu nity offers. Nothing but interest will stay the assassin's hand. I should have fallen a victim in New Orleans but for one thing—if they had mur dered me they would have had Phelps over them, and that would have been jumping out of the fry ing pan into the fire. You may rest assured that \ if! had been elected Vice President la ' 1864, in 'place of Andrew Johnson ' Abrahma Lincoln would have been a living manto-day. Those 66 013an5” in Iltaine. Corry O'Lanns has heard all about those "Im mense rebel gains In Maine," He has received the following letter. SQLMDITIM, Halne.--To C.

' The musicians In this city are clearing their throats, tuning their fiddles, tooting their horns, lingering their pianos, drilling their harmonic squads and selecting and practising their music for the coining winter season. The campaign promises to be lively, interesting and unusually prolific of gclod things; in vocal and instrtunentai music. It is our fortune to have in this, the moat musical city on the continent, a large coterie of accomplished artists, who aim high, and , who while they endeavor to cater successfully.to pub: lie taste, strive in the spirit of genuine enthusi asts to advance the interests of > their art, and at the same time to raise the standard of popular appreeistion,by preaenting only high class music, the work cite masters. , Last winter we had in this city a greater number of- serial musi cal perfonnanses, and more single entertainments given by wandering minstrels: than anyother city hobo United States. At most of these, nothing but what may fairly be called chaisiesdr music, was presented. Some of the artists loot' money, but many of them succeeded very fairly peen niarilv. The fact that so many of them suc ceeded at all,—so well indeed that they, have de termined to try it again, speaks weilfor the good , taste and the high culture of our citizens. It is to be hoped that liberal and generous support will be extended to every one of these gentlemen during the coming season. We owe it to them to sustain them in their efforts to minister to our highest sense ofenjoyment; we owe, It to , our selves to encourage them in their attempt to po pularize a science whose immediate eitect upon a community is in the largest intellectual and moral sense beneficial. Ve give below a summary of the arrangements that have thus far been made for the winter sea son on the ppart of a few of our leading artists and musical societies. The list excludes several well known musicians and more than one association, but this is attributable simply to, the fact that iiiese have not yet determined upon their precise line ofaction.

Dtulag the course he will present very many productions recently imported and never before given in this country. We may. state also that, Mr. Sentz's orchestra will be much larger than it was last year, and will contain the most accomplished performers in the profession. The subscription price for this splendid series is so , low ($5) that every person who loves good music should attend the concerts. X& CARL WOLFSOHN is also preparing to enter the field, and to do, if possible, better things with other composers than he did last season with Beethoven. He will give a series of six matinees at which musical perfor mances of unusual excellence will be presented. Mr. Wolfsohn , who, is in himself a whole orches tra and two or three small musicians over, will be assisted by artists of the highest class. Among these we may mention aYrench vlolinist,Rdonard Coionne, who, we are assured, has great ability, and a violoncellist named Hennig, also a player of unusual brilliancy—ohn has not yet prepared his programmes, but he will make them np largely from the : works of the masters, Beethoven Schubert, Shuman, Chopin, Mendelsohn am! others. He intends, however, that a leading feature shall be the Introduction_ of selections from what he is pleased to call "the new romantic school," in which be includes the works of Rubenstein. Ruff, Barceizy, and a few others. There can be no doubt that these matinees will be very charming, and well Worthy the attention of the public. The details will be presented about the first of next month. It was hoped_ that Mr. WolfsOhn_ would appear dnringthe winter in conjunction with Mr. Chas. Jarvis; but the-latter gentleman, if he has determined to do anything, has not seen fit to declare hitt intentions yet. also, are holding back for the present. Mr. A. Barili will probably give some concerts—matinee or soiree—during the winter, but ho has only the virtuous intention now, without any definite design. Mr. Mark Hassler is in a like condition of vague uncertainty. That he will appear in concert is, we believe, decided upon,but when or how, or where,hedoesnot know. Mr. Jean Louis will not venture upon any individual enterprises in public. His whole attention will be absorbed by the duties of his profession, of his leader ship, (of which more anon), and of his choir. It is his ambition just at present to form a "church choir as a , model for Philadelphia," and he has selected the church at Eighteenth and Arch streets as the place in which to perfect this very laudable enterprise, and win the champion's belt. All the world - can - attend_to ascertain the remelt gratuitously, with the advantage of hearing a firsbrate sermon into the bargain. Inciden tally, we may mention; that among foreign ar tists, we may count upon a visit this winter from Ole Bull, and very likely, also, we may have•an opportunity to hear the , famous pianist AUda Topp, whose performances are said to be little short of marvellous..

The Mendelasohn Society began excellent array of female voices; but hardly a sufficient number of sales. There is a fine opportunity for those who desire to become pntiftclent singers. Of TIM HANDEL AND HAYDN 80CIETY, we have rather scant Information, for it has not yet, fairly.begnn Ha operations. Mr. Carl Bentz'has resigned from the kadership,because— it Is asserted—kis advanced taste, and partiality for the highest grade music, did not meet with responsive sympathy from the . Directors. We are infonned upon very credible authority, that Mr. L. Engelke will assume the °thee of Maslen Director, and lead the society on to glory. - Mr. Engelke is a musician of high culture and first rateiebility, and the association should prosper undertis direction. We believe the • Handel and Haydn will give miscellaneous concerts •.during, the winter, the general opinion being thet them will Trove more popular sad attractive than en. tire oratorios. ; We wish the poelety perfect suc cess in all its undertakinge,in whatever direction It may labor. Concerning ' • GEBDIALPIA OUCKILSTRA, we have but a few words to say: Everything is in an agony of indecision and uncertainty with them, as with most of Our other musical orgini zations. Mr. CharleaSchmitz Continues in the leaderenip, but he has, gone into business, and we are very sorry to say, has announced his deter ruination to abandon professional playing and directing. Ho will of couree,withdraw from the Germania, and his loss, we fear, will be more keenly felt because' it v.lll be very difficult to re place him with a competent person. Until this matter is settled,no conclusion can be reached as to the character of the public performances dur ing the winter. The feeling. however, is de cidedly in favor of continuing, those orchestral matinees which have proved so popular in past seasons. This we think will be done, as the pub lic, equally with tbe members, are desirous of it A NEW ORGANISATION - Is talked of, and the prelhninary steps have been already taken towards its: formation. The pro. ceedings hitherto have been of the most strktly private character, and we are not atliberty yet to do more- than hint at the existence of the movenumt—we cannot even give the proposed name.

OBITUARY. Mount, the Artist. The death is announced of H. 8. Shepherd Meant, who deceased at his residence in Smith town, Long Island, and will be buried to-day. The funeral will be followed by, a number of members of the National Academy of Design. Shepherd Mount, and his still better-known brother William S. Mount, were sons of a thrifty farmer of Sautucket, L 1., and commenced life as sign-painters, but were soon led by a spirit of emulation into the walks of bun art. Their line was humoristic, and of one of them (their career is so entangled that It is difficult to adjust the reminiscence properly) a droll and harmless an ecdote is told in connection with thu painter o' allegories, Thomas Cole. It was at a monthly men tine of the National Academy, and Cole, whose well known series called the "Voyage of Life" was already celebra ted, attended, as well as Mount. The artists, according to custom, were exercising themselves by sketching from a given subject, which, on this occasion was worded "Just in Lime." Each artist attempted to display his fancy: one represented a seedy poor relation arriving as a magnificent dinner was being Set out; another, asboy fly tae over a fence to avoid a bull; and so on But Mount's carried off the prize, irreverent as it was. He took the figure frcina Cole's last picture in the "Voyage of Life* —the helpless graybeard who drifts into the ocean of eternity on the wreck of his sbattered bark. Mount, with his irresistible propensity for rnor, bad sketched the old man lifted from the wreck by his coat collar, by the band of a goad natured seraph, while the dt vil stretched his claws from below, vainly, trying to capture the mortal delivered "just in time" by the heavenly messenger. Meantime, says the narrator, "I was anxious to see what Mount was at, for he looked. very mischievous. I shall, never forget Cole's sad look as Mount's drawing was placed upon the t.ble for examination, for Cole was a man of great religions sensibility. The illustra tion was irresistible, but it made us all feel sad - to see ColetakethirjOke - itlseileMaly - r - - ---- We do not pretend to say whether this anecdote pertains to the Mount just deceased or to his jovial brother; but the mention of the name brought it's° freshly, albeit malapropas,to mied, that we could not resist taking it down. Poor Mount! His flashes of merriment will no longer set the table on a roar. Oar last, best wish for the dead humorist is that he may have formed the living illustration of that very jest, and that some how, by book or by crook, gracefully or awk wardly, that genial soul may have been 'bundled tip by some shilling immortal into the 'tat bay en,—''just in time." Callous Story of a Rich ladand and 173 r. Nosiard Edmond Texier communicates to the -Paris Siecle an extract of a letter he has just received from his friend Cmear Moreno, an Italian nauti cal adventurer, who believes he has discovered as' Island of great richness and vast extent somewhere on -- the coast of - China. It-appifare that on returning to Europe he offered it to the Italian government, to Prussia, and to the Em peror of the French. but no one would have It, so he betook himself to the United States, and writes from New York' that the Government of that country is disposed to come to terms with him.
