The shock would be analogous to that which we experience when a long-cherished idol is rudely torn Prom our worshipping gaze, and shown to be noth ing but a hollow imposture. /t is somewhat remarkable that the greatest literary geniuses have been unforhmate in their domestic relations; whether the fault was wholly theita or not, we do not undertake to say, but wo surmise that it' has 'heal in a great measure owing to that peculiar Sensitiveness and irritability, attendant on minds.of a highly imaginative order.

The second seems to have right on his side, for his first wife, after leaving him, returned and sought his forgiveness. BYRON, whose known licentiousness ought to have made any doceht woman hesitate to marry him, inexpli cably allied himself to a lady whoa° frigid vir. tue - might have chilled a better man, and from whom he never bad an hour's sympathy.

The firemen will be on the ground all night, as the fire still rages fiercely within the lumber piles. The loss has been rather understated.

EXPEDITION. - The telegraph squadron, consisting of the Nia gara, the Agamemnon, the Valorous, the Gorgon, and the Porcupine, started from Plymouth Sound at ten o'clock on tho morning of the 10th of Juno, for mid-moan, where the work of submerging the. Atlantic telegraph cable will be commenced some Mane between the 10th and 20th inst. Tho par- Router point selected is in lon. 52 dog. 2 min. N., and 33 deg..lB min. W., where the depth of the ocean is 1,000 fathoms. The ships are to keep in company until they arrive at this locality, to pro vent the possibility of any delay when they roach their destination. By a glance at the chart of the telegraph plateau, it will be seen that the mint seleeted is fifty miles nearer to the coast of New foundland than it is to the coast of. Ireland; but ns the Niagara will be obliged to land the cable at the head of Trinity Bay, she will have no ad vantage. That bay is about sixty miles long, so that the spot chosen will be half way between the points of connection. The weather is 'as fine as could be wished, and the expedition started under the most favorable auspioes. Ninety additional miles of cable have been placed on the Niagara and Agamemnon during the past few days, so that there is now on board both ships 2,970 miles, or a little more than fifty per cent on the distance between Ireland and Newfoundland. Among the scientific) mon on the Niagara is Lieutenant the Baron de Boys, ono of the aids of ,the Grand Duko Constantine, lligh Admiral of 'the Russian navy. TICE PRENCII AND AMERICAN QUESTIONS IN PARLIAMENT In the House of Commons on the 11th inst., Sir Charles Napier asked the Chancellor of the Ex chequer if it was his intention to ask for an addi tional vote for seamen and marines, in consequence of the preparations making in some parts of Eu rope by sea and land ; and whether, when the ad ditional troops aro sent to India, it Is the intention of thellovernment to call out an equal number of militia to replace them 1 Ile read a list of the ships in col - omission in the ports of the United Kingdom, to show that they were still In an Incomplete state. Ile contended that, in theate.* end no usr I a ßearm - an attack upon tuts ' country aught. be made with great chance of success. We ought not to be left_ in the defenceless state In which we were at present. The Government ought to demand sup plies from the country for the purpose of putting the national defences in a more complete state. For anything wo know, Prance and Russia may be on good terms, but let them consider the con fusion whieh would be caused by tho appearance of the Russian fleet in the channel. He concluded by recommending that the disbanded militia bo at once re-embodied. The Chancellor of the Exchequer said that Government was sensible of the responsibility un der whieh it lay, both of defending our country and vindicating our flag. The gallant admiral seemed to assume that those with whom we wore, now on terms of cordial friendship, not only in tended to attack us, but to attack us suddenly, without the usual form of declaration of war. We were on terms not only of friendly, but constant and confident communication with Fiance. There was no proof that any extraordinary , preparations were making by sea or land in any country in intimate Europe. We were now engaged in en ' deavors with France to , settle the most delleate sabjcots, and with every prospect of success. It -was true that questions had arisen be tween this (country. and America which were of an embarrassing, and even of a nilsobie vous nature, but these were incidents Incidental to public' affairs, and be believed that nothing would occur to disturb, permanently, tho , friendly feeling between the two nations. It was most injurious to the interests of the country to assume that, other nations entertained hostile intentions. This polioy of suspioion was as unjust to other Powers as it was hurtful to ourselves. The Government hod, within a few hours, received a proof of flee friendly feel ing from a Power whose real disquietude had been feared. A despatch was received from- Naples , stating that the King had granted an ample com ponsation to the - engineers, Watt and Park, and had placed the Cagliari and all its crew at the dis posal of the Queen of England. That -ship would sail to Genoa with the former mow under the di aootion of a British commissioner. It was by the ndoption of a proper policy that they had obtained Ibis gratifying result. Tho defences of the coun try ought to be 'attended to, but it rather ought to bo left to those on whom tho responsibility rested, and who would exeroiso the utmost vigilance. Mr. Bentlnek said that the House ought to know how far the defences of the country could be put in !satisfactory state without calling on thouountry km further ;supplies. The state of the present peens of defence ought therefore to bo laid before the House in detail.
