In our land of publicity and discussion a "Petition" is a very cut-and-dry affair. Unless it tumbles to pieces on the floor of the House, and drags its slow length along like a Boa Conitnetor, as some Irish petition did a few days since, it makes its little splash in the great tidal stream of opinion, and there an end. But two " Petitions" to which we are now calling attention were altogether exceptional in origin, in purpose, and in destination. They make what is called au epoch in history, because they occupy a page in it which is • chapter in itself. Turn the page over, a new epoch has begun. Such " petitions" as these are never repeated. The story of the MSS. of these Roman addresses is a curiosity of literature. How they ware so much as conceived is a mystery ; but the painfully concealed and protracted parturition, and the startling and almost public birth, may some day be the subject of a curious and interesting volume. Flowerer, under the very mess of the Papal polio, and shirri and Zooms, these two " petition/ 1 ? have been drawn up, and banded about, and signed by nearly ten thousand Roman citizens, " including about fifty noblemen." They are addr.., - .44 to the Emperor Norma= la. Ind to the King 71t.-rt . ); I r ni7 l 7ll. Their tone is neither plaintive nor declamatory, nor their matter prolix ; the language is moderate as justice, calm as scasecious strength, and brief as axed resolve. The Petition to the Emperor of the F/13XCH reminds that Sovereign that it is to his name that history will join the glory of having enabled Italy to assert her independence from foreign and internal oppression, and to reconstitute her vital unity as a single and compact nation. The name of NA rotator; l I 1., say the petitioners, means non-inter vention, the principle of universal suffrage, the new European right. Then let these principles which have liberated Italy be applied to Rome, " the natural centre of regenerated Italy." But it is the second part of this Petition that makes it a veritable historical portent. After giving the Ewa- Kos credit for having done all that was in his power to NM the temporal domain of the Holy Beep it declares that the Marrone has not succeeded be cause success wee impossible, and that it is sow high time to tell the whole truth. The continued resistance of the Papal Court will be not only moral and material ruin to Rome, but will create "a schism" in the Church itself. In the interests of the Catholic world as well as of Italy the incompatible union of the temporal and spiritual power must be dissolved, the spiritual authority being gua ranteed to the Potrrter, and the temporal domain being reunited to Italy, from which Rome " cannot " and will not remain separated." Such is the sum and substance of this appeal of the Remora to the Emperor of the FRENCH. The Address to Vicnia EMNAPIUZL of the ten thousand fliplBBl2- tatives of Rome, "in the only manner permitted" to petitioners who are still deprived by force of the rights which Rome's sister cities have at tained, proclaims the King of Irazy King of Rona. Thw l'etitions, or rather this Petition and this Address, have the merit of coming before the world in doe season. Nothing could be more op portune than their publication at a moment when the recognition of the Kingdom of Italy by the Trench Government is announced to be forth coming. With what, if any, "reservations" uto Rome is this recognition to be ►ttended I This is the point on which the morbid invention and dimes/ curiosity of continental gossip' are fasten ing with a restless perseverance. We heretics, who are only responsible, se • Government, for having helped to restore the Papal power half • century ago, are happily at liberty to see, and to say, that any " reservation " on the part of Italy, so far as the temporal power of the Papacy is con cerned, is impracticable, and on the part of France can mean nothing more than a " way of speaking." For observe, the "incompatibility"which theme ten thousand Romans pronounce, has already been pronounced by His HOLINION himself in Coterie tory. Indeed the HOLY PATH= went so far as to declare the temporal power incompatible with " modern civilization." When M. ABOUT worked out a similar conclusion to his "Roman question," it was not so much the wit of the writer as his facts that gave offence. There is probably not one even of theme ten thousand Romans (who certainly include all the intellect, moral worth, independence, enter prise, and substance of the Roman world) better qualified to understand this "incompatibility " than the present Emperor of the Emmen, who began his public life with the Roman question. Imt:lS Narotiros is, of all the Continental Sove reigns, the one who pays sincerest homage to the decisions of that Court of last appeal—public opinion. If we in England, who desire always to speak generously and respectfully of our neigh bours over the water, are quite at ease in discuss ing the relations between France and Rome, it is because all liberal opinion in France is on our side, or rather on the aide of right and justice. It was, we are assured, as a "Catholic Sovereign," that the Emperor Naroteoir protested against the invasion of the Adriatic provinces by V,-roa Erzurum.. This is dangerous logic. "As a 1 THE EXPRESS, SATURDAY EVENING, JUNE 15, 1141. " Catholic Sovereign," the Purr may add— " You might have prevented the Sardinian an " nexation of the Romagna, which was the result " of your victorious arms, the consequence of " your principle of non-intervention, and the price "of your annexation of Savoy and Nice. It was " as • Catholic Sovereign that the Emperor of " AUSTRIA occupied half Italy until you drove " him out." The " Catholic Sovereign " argu ment, we fear, proves too little or too much. It goes far to justify Austria in disregarding the prin ciple of non-intervention imperfectly and partially applied. The Court of Rome is very far from satisfied with this conception of the duties of • " Catholic Sovereign." Such is its infatuation— "providential" we might call it, if we were in the habit of making free with PROVIDENCE—that it positively clings with desperation to the millstone of temporal power. In 1859 Plus IX. identified himself with the petty Austrian dynasties in Cen tral Italy. Last year he identified himself with the 13ouatioNs of Naples. He now declares that rather than remain at Rome as a spiritual Father under the protection of United Italy, he will be take himself to Venice, and there remain as long as Austria remains, the guest of Italy's direst foe. Evidently, as the ten thousand Romans emphati cally warn the Emperor of the Fitxxeu, the inevi table end of all this obstinate blindness and wilful " incompatibility " must be a secession of Italy from the spiritual authority, as the only way of escape from the temporal misrule. Many letters we have seen from Central Italy of late point in this direction. As Protestants we cannot be supposed to regard such a solution of the Roman question with regret. But a " Catholic " Sovereign " may be excused for saving twenty five million Catholics from " schism," even at the risk of breaking up the headquarters of his own implacable enemies, and completing the gratitude of his friends. IT is long since the monthly Overland Mail, with its swollen budget of news from our moat splendid dependency, from a group of our most prosperous colonies, and from the great and recently enlarged market in further Asia, has brought intel ligence so uniformly favourable as that which we printed yesterday. The termination of tho war in New Zealand, or if that description is too wide, the acceptance of oar terms by a preponderating number of the Maories in the field, is an event on which all par ties may be congratulated. The most warlike of the native tribes, the Waikato., who joined W. Kim some months after the outbreak of war and have borne the brunt of the conflict, have retired in the direction of their own country, after burying 200 of their warriors. The Taranaki and Ngatiruanui tribes had not come in at the date of the departure of the mail. But the Ngagaw's have submitted, obtaining terms which show that the war never ought to have been begun. After all the fighting, the title to the land at Waiters, about which the dispute arose, is to be reinvesti gated. If this had been done at first by some authority — which the natives coull rfils.^nablY be expected to regard as impartial, resort to fora would probably have been unnecessary ; or, if not, the Governor would have been able to say with truth that he did not rush to arms to acquire land, but to vindicate the authority of the law. We observe that the settlers are already complaining that the peace makes no provision for their compensation. By this can only be meant, that no wide-stretching confiscation of native territory has taken place, land being the only possession of the Maori out of which the colonists could have been indemnified. But • re quisition of that kind put forward by our Govern ment would have alarmed the whole body of natives, brought into the field tribeshitherto friendly to us, and given the war a new lease of life. The terms offered were such as to convince the natives that the best thing they could do was to make peace. If theywere not imchasthecolonistsexpected, we can only regret that they did not better cal culate the consequences before they impelled the Governor upon • course of policy by wWch they were sure to be the chief sufferers. General Pears has had the satisfaction of ending the war before his supersession by Colonel Osumi:v. If the rapidity of his movement, did not satisfy general expec tation either in England or the colony, perhaps sufficient allowance bas not been made for the difficulties with which he has had to contend. He has had to oope with an übiquitous foe, es brave as he is wily, and he defeated htm at a cost of the lives of his troops which cannot fairly be deemed excessive. We trust that these events will not change the intention of the Government to send out Sir Gnome Gm to New Zeeland. It is, if possible, more necessary now than ever that a Governor of comprehensive views and firm grasp of business should take the relations of natives and settlers in hand, and organize • plan for placing the natives under sonic form of govern ment which will educate them for a fair participa tion in the civilization and welfare of their white neighbours.

The indictment was of a very vague description, the principal fact of recent date being that in March last the police found at the house of Blau qui's sister, Madame Antoine, No. 22, Rue Haute feuille, 3,000 envelopes, with addresses on them, half of which were in the handwriting of Blanqui. In answer to the questions of the President (M. Rohault de Fleury), Blanqui, who had only answered the Judge of Instruction in monosyllables, said that he would speak candidly to-day in the face of the court, but that he would give no answer to the police reports, which were a tissue of lies, and represented him as having preached "indi vidual war"—meaning to insinuate that he would assassinate the Emperor. He denied that he belonged to the Marianne—he did not believe that such a society had ever existed. He denied that since he came to Paris in 1860 he had been to England and Switzerland ; he had no more been there than he had to China or Japan. He had passed in France under a false name, to spare himself the annoyance of the police. He admitted writing the 1,500 addresses, but said it was not for him to say what his object was. He had an intention at a certain time to communicate some thing of importance to the public. Most of the 3,000 addresses, as the court might see, by refer ring to the book, were taken from the directory. As to the four prisoners sitting beside Lim, whose names were on the envelopes, the police might just as well have indicted as conspirators theother 2,906; that would have made a grand massacre of in nocents. He did not understand on what legal principle he was to be prosecuted for writing ad dresses on envelopes unless the prosecution was prepared to show what writing he intended to put into them. He admitted that after the quarter of a century which he had passed in prison his politi cal principles were the same as before ; but he strongly repudiated all idea of political assassina tion. The trial will not be over till a late hour. The Imperial Court decided yesterday a case of great importance as regards the rights of British subjects having property in France. The facts were shortly these: Mies Mary Kelly, • British subject, residing at Versailles, made her will there in the English form on January 24, 1824, and died, still residing in France, on Feb. 2, 1846. It is admitted that notwithstanding her long residence abroad she had not lost her English dersicik, and that her personal succession was regulated by English law. The testatrix was an illegitimate child, and as she died unmarried it is a consequence, according to English law, that she left behind her neither heirs nor next of kin. By her will she bequeathed to Sarah Innes,whom she described as "her mother," all her jewels, and 1,0001., the said 1,0001., after Sarah lance' death, to be applied for the benefit of such charitable catholic establishments as she (I understand the pronoun " she " as applying to the legatee for life) might appoint. She left, moreover, a legacy of 1,0001. to the Rev. Thomas Wassail, 1001. to erect a tombstone to her father, 1,0001. to James Kelly, another 1,0001. to the Benedictine College of St. Gregory, and a legacy to a benedictine convent in Warwickshire. Finally, she appointed James Kelly, the Rev. Thomas Wassail, and John Burke, her executors. For reasons which do not appear, but which are unimportant, as far as regards the present judgment of the court, Miss Kelly's will was not proved till nearly ten years after her death. But on November 13, 1864, the Rev. Thomas Walsall, being at that time the sole survivor of the three executors named in the will, obtaival probate of it from the Preroga tive Court of Canterbury. Meanwhile, and as long ago as 1848, the French government, in default of any claimant, entered into possession of the per sonal property of the testatrix in France, as bona eaeantia. It is essential to the right understanding of the case to mention here that, ex eonceais , this taking possession by the state does not prejudice the legal question. It is not denied that at any time within thirty years (the period applicable by the French statute of limitations in such a matter) the state would be bound to refund to any claimant who might establish a right, "under and by virtue of the will," as construed by English law. Under these circumstances, and on Feb. 6, 1856, Thomas Walsall and Sarah Iona; brought an action in France against the state to recover the property. The suit was dismissed by the Tribunal of First Instance of Versailles. Itdoes not appear, and it is immaterial to my present purpose to inquire what were the precise terms of the rejection of the claim of Sarah Inner. In so far as the court refused to admit her in the character of next of kin to her natural daughter, it was of course quite right. If it dis puted her title as a legatee, as persona designate, in character of mother, it was quite wrong. The main point is the case of the executor. As to him, the court held that he was not entitled to recover from the state until he should have shown-Ist, the existence at the time of the death of Mary Kelly of the private legatee named in her will; and 2nd, the capacity, according to English law, of the public establishments mentioned in her will to accept the legacies left to them. This judgment is confirmed by the Imperial Court on appeal. The main ground set forth in the judgment of the Imperial Court is this : That whatever may be the powers lonferred by this man date [viz. the probate of the Prerogative Court of London] Thomas Wassail is but a simple administrator, acting on behalf of others, and can never in any case take any part of the succession for himself. That the estate can only be administered among the next of kin or legatees, according to their rights, and that the surplus in England would be disposed of as goods without an owner (bona eacaatia). This judgment will, I apprehend, be closely scrutinised in Lincoln's Inn. I remember enough of English law to see very clearly the important questions which it raises, but not, I regret to say, enough to give a positive opinion as to their solu tion. At the date of the will, 1824, the law was that an executor was a "legal residuary legatee." By the fact of his appointment the residue was "given" to him for his own personal use and benefit, unless a contrary intention was to be col lected by inference from the will itself. The first question is whether the statute of 11 George IV. and 1 William IV., which reversed this rule (and enacted that an executor should always be pre sumed a trustee of the residue for the next of kin, unless it appeared by the will that he "was" in tended Ito have it for himself), is applicable to wills "dated," as this was, before the date of the statute, although the testator may have died afterwards. If on this point the law should be in favour of the plaintiff it is to be further inquired whether the gift to one of the three executors of a legacy of 40001. raises that "strong and violent presumption" against their right to I the residue which the law required in 1824. But even if it be admitted that the statute of William IV. applies to this case it would be further neces sary to show, in order to support the judgment, that where there are no next of kin, the English Crown has, by virtue of that statute, a title against the executor I The French judgment affirms, as the basis of its decree, that the property in ques tion would be bona eacantia in England. Is that so ? I doubt it much. At all events, it seems to me a very strong and novel proposition of inter national law to say that an English executor, armed with a prerogative probate, cannot collect his testator's goods in France (that testator being admitted to be a domiciled Englishman) without proving to the French courts that there are legatees or next of kin beneficially entitled to the whole property, lest peradventure the rights of the French Emperor by escheat should be prejudiced. It is to be observed that the judgment goes to throw the onus of this proof upon the executor in every case. The tendency of it is to overrule the English law, which holds the "personal representative" to be the legal owner of all the personal property of a deceased, and to usurp the jurisdiction of the Court of Chancery, by forcing every executor of an Englishman leaving property in France to pass his accounts before a French tribunal. These consequences are so mon strous that I cannot think the judgment can stand in the Court of Cessation. If it should, the ques tion will arise whether the grievance should not be made the ground of a diplomatic remonstrance with a view to a legislative remedy. The Indipendance says that M Granier de Cas sagas° will not remain long attached to the Consti tutioanel ; that be left the Pays on the faith of a promise that he is shortly to obtain a permission to found a politico-religious journal of his own, the management of which will be placed in the hands of his brother—a priest, and that the aim of the new journal will be to reconcile the French clergy I with the Emperor, and to wile away the subscribers to the Anti de la Religion. The Bourse was again good. The Rente rose 15c. for cash, and 10c. for account, closing at 67fr. 90c. and afr. 95c. Mobilier rose 3fr. 75c. In railways there was no change worth notice. AUSTRIA. The Pays says that the Austrian government has resolved not to carry into effect, for the present, the project of disarmament on which it had resolved ; and that a similar determination has been adopted by King Victor Emmanuel's government. It also sap that the Austrian cabinet, in order to enforce the payment of taxes in Hungary, has resolved on establishing a camp in the plain of Rakes, and has already collected there troops, artillery, and ammu nition. The same journal affirms that the chiefs of the recently discovered conspiracy in Greece were ex-Russian officers. It adds that the King and Queen, having been informed that they were menaced, took measures of precaution, and that the Queen armed herself with pistols. A BOY SHOT IN THE BEGENT'S PARK. Yesterday morning, shortly after 7 o'clock, the 29th or North Middlesex Rifles, were assembled to the number of about 300 in the centre of the Regent's.park, for the purpose of blank cartridge firing and battalion dull, in preparation for the inspection of the regiment appointed to take place in the Regent's-park on the everting of Tues. day next, the 18th init. The companies wont through the vistas manceuvree with the greatest precision, but not. withstanding the early hour they had to pot up with the encroachtuente of the unthinking public upon them, more espoidally of boys, who, in spite of all preaution, would rush in to pick up the caps after every discharge of the rifles. The corps had formed square to receive cavalry, and, in obedience to orders, fired a volley. At this moment a youth, 15 years of age, named Thomas Dutton, residing at 12, Suffolk-plans, Manning.itreet, Maryleboue, was ob served to stagger and fall. Blood was seen streaming copiously down his face and nark, and he was instantly removed, under the direction of Mr. IL fintherin, one of the surgeons of the regiment, who was on duty, Ito a seat at a remote portion of the perk. On examination be found that the youth had sustained a contused and lace. rated wound immediately above the left ear, which had laid the skull bare to the bone, and which left no doubt but that the lad must have been within three or four test from the muzzle of one of the rifles when it was fired. It appears that Dutton, upon his own statement, was in the ls ot ascertaining when rifle corps fired in the parks, and running in rowdiest of danger to pick up the - exploded percumion ceps. which he sold at the rate of 9d. to Is. per pound. The same object forms the incentive to • wail of other young boys, who, in defiance of all pre. (unties and warning, will run into daoger. After having droned the wound, it was felt advisable toy Mr. Butherin to have the boy Dutton removed to University College He.. vital, where be was placed under the care of Mr. Audrey', one of the surgeons of the West Middlesex, who was also in the park at the time of the occurrence. It is the opinion of both gentlemen that had the wound been another inch more forward towards the temple, death would have been instantaneous, and it is hoped that the cemnsnos may operate as a caution to others. THE OFFICERS OP A BURIAL SOCIETY CHARGED WITH MISAPPROPRIATING £lO,OOO. On Thursday and yesterday the County Court indent Liverpool (W. A. Halton, Eaq.) was occupied with Mann evidence in support of a petition, charging the per 'ideal, secretary, treasurer, and several committee men and collectors, of the Liver Burial Society with publishing Was balancesheets, cooking accounts in various ways, and with having knowingly conspired to defraud the society of sums of money amounting in the aggregate to 10,0001. since the list of January, ,ltSo. The petition stated that the member of the committee had appropriated 41. per week as remuneration, the treasurer 81. per week, and the seem Lary (Lawrence) 16!. 10e. per week, and that these appropriations had been made (from smallamounts granted,* first) without any legal sanction of general meetings of the society. The printing business for the society was described ea a cloak for similar jobbery. The petition concluded by praying that the officials should be made to account for the moneys received since January, 1855 ; refund all amounts beyond those to which they were properly entitled; and to pry their own and the costs of this case. After some time had been occupied by a discussion upon e proposal fur a reference, Mr. Deighton (barrister), who appeared for some of the defendants, urged several technical objections with a view to invalidate the petition ; but after Mr. Roby, for the petitioner, had been heard, the court decided that the petitioner (a seaman, named Draper) clearly was one of the "parties interested" who alone could institute such proceedings. Mr. Roby (solicitor) was then heard at length in support of the petition, the evidence being postponed until yester day. Yesterday, however, was occupied again :ibliket en tirely with arguments upon technical and legal joints, and ultimately the case was adjourned to Nov. 12. DISASTROUS FIRE AND Loan OT LIFT. —Last evening. about five o'clock, • fire broke out upon the pre mises of Aleo Keene's, Three Tuns public-house, Idooretreet. Soho. The alarm was at onoegiven, when tbo Croirmstreett St. Anne'a, and Wellatreet engines were soon on the spot sod lit to work. After some time it was extinguished, but not till the bar and all it contained was completely gutted. al also • greater part of the upstairs premises. During the progress of the fire the potman, Thome Turner, Ash Browne, the rook, and a little girl stated to be her child. were in the kitchen upstairs. The potman jumped nut of the window on to some leads over the parlour, and induced the child to do the same, but all his persuasions could not prevail upon the cook to follow, till she wag surrounded by flames. When she did throw herself out she was rolled in a wet carpet by Mr. Klosx. the baker next door, and then conveyed in a cab to l'haring.cross Hospital, where she expired shortly after admission. The pottnan's ann was also very much burnt. As Engineers Wilkinson and Flaxmore, of (Yawn-street, were going up stairs with the branch they had a narrow escape of their lives by the staircase giving way. Engineer Speodelow, of St. Anne's, had also a narrow escape. Whilst be wail directing • branch the floor io front of the bar gave Wan , and he had great difficulty in extricating himself. Mr. Keene, who bad gone to Cricklewood, we believe is fully insured. The fire was caused by an explosion of gas. THE MURDER AT KINGSWOOD REcTORY. —An In quest was opened by Mr. Carter, coroner for West Surrey. on the body of the unfortunate woman Martha Halliday, who was barbarously murdered at the rectory house of the ltev.
