The Univers publishes an encyclical letter from the Pope - headed thus, - " To our venerable brethren the Patriarchs, Primates, Archbishops, Bishops, and others, ordinaries of places in ,grace and in communion with the Apostolic See." We select the following passages as the most important : " Since the publication of our encyclicatletter of the 18th of June r last year ' and the two allocutions which were subsequently delivered in Consistory, Sou have learnt, your souls full of grief, with what evils religious and civil society in Italy is over whelmed, and what audacious and abominable acts of revolt were directed both against the legitimate Princes of the Italian States and the legitimate and sacred sovereignty which belong to us, to this Holy See ; and, responding to our wishes and our cares, yon hastended, without loss of time, and with n zeal which nothing could arrest, to order public 'prayers in your diodeses. You did not content yourselves with. the letters so full of' devotion and love, which you addressed to us, but, to the glory of your name and pint. order, raising the epis copal voice, you published writings full of science and of piety,• defending energetically the cause of our most . holy religion, and stigmatis ine• the religious attempts directed against the civil sovereignty-of -the Roman Church. Con stantly defending that sovereignty, you made it a glory to avow and to teach that,- by a particular design of Divine Providence, who directs and go verns all thingi, it has been given to the Roman Pontiff, in order' that, not being subject to any Civil Power, he may exercise in complete liberty, and without hindrance throughout the universe, the supreme charge of the. Apostolic Ministry, which has been divinely intrusted to him by Christ our Lord. Instructed by your teaching, and in cited by your example, the well-beloved children of the - Catholic Church 'have taken, and are still adopting, every means to testify to us the same sen timents. From every part of the Catholic world we have received letters, the number of which, can scarcely be counted, signed by ecclesiastics and by lairs of every condition, of every rank, of every •order, sometimes reaching to hundreds of thousands, which, while expressing the most ardent sentiments of veneration and love for us, and for this chair of St. Peter, and the indignation felt by them at the audacious acts accomplished in certain of our pro, vinces, declare that the patrimony of the blessed St. Peter shall be preserved inviolate in all its in tegrity, and protected from all attack. Many of those who signed these letters have, moreover, established with much force and knowledge that truth in published writings. These strikingmani festations of your sentiments; and of the sentiments of the faithful, worthy of all honour and of all praise, and which will remain inscribed in ietters of gold in the annals of the Catholic Church, have caused us such emotion. that we could not, in our joy, refrain from crying out Blessed be God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of Mercy and God of all Consolation, who consoles us in our tribulation." The Pope then alludes to the Imperial letter : " Recently, as many of you already know, the Paris, journal entitled the &toniteur published a letter of the Emperor of the French, replying to a letter from us, in which we earnestly prayed his Imperial Majesty to protect with his powerful patronage, in the Congress of Paris, the integrity and inviolability of the temporal dominion of the Holy See, and to free it from a criminal rebellion. Repeating in his letter certain advice which a short time before he offered us relative to the rebellious provinces of our Pontifical dominions, the very . exalted Emperor counsels us to renounce the pos session of those same provinces, finding in such renunciation the only remedy for the present dis order of affairs " After remarking that it was impossible for him ,o remain silent after such aff tirs, his Holiness con- inues:— " We hastened to reply to the same Emperor, and in the apostolic liberty of 'our soul we clearly and openly declared to him that we could in no manner adhere to that. counsel; because, consider ing our dignity and that of the Holy See, it was attended with insurmountable difficulties, and con sidering our sacred character and the rights of this same See, which do not belong to the dynasty of any royal family, but to all Catholics. And at the same time we declared that we could not surrender what does not belong to us; and that we perfectly understood that the victory which might be accorded to the revolted of the would be a stimulant to commit the same attempts to the native and fo reign disturbers of the other provinces when they should witness the success of the rebels. And, among other things, we •causedit to be made known to the same that we cannot abdicate the aforesaid provinces of our Pontifical dominions without violating the solemn oaths_ which bind us, without exciting compl a i n t s and insurr e ction in the rest of our States, without doing an injury to all Catholics, and, finally, without weakening the rights not only of the princes of Italy who have been unjustly de spoiled of their domains, but also of all the princes of the Christian universe, who could not see with indifference the introduction of certain most perni cious principles. ,We do not omit to observe that oao hv n e n a b , e .e and n other his Majesty was not igno ran t b y w h a t men, with' what money, a n d w h at succour the recent attemp t s at rebellion ogrtay ina the excited towns,and aaccompl ishwhileedthe at Bologna, great m people remained stupified at those risings, which they in nowise expected, and which they were by no means disposed to follow. And, inasmuch as the ,Most, Serene Emperor thought that those proVinees were 'kV be abdicated by us, by reason of the seditious movements which were excited there from time to time, we oppor tunely replied to him that this argument had no value, because it proved too much, as similar move ments took place frequently both in the States of Europe and elsewhere; and no one could use it as a legitimate argum ent to reduce the p ossess i ons of a civil Government. Neither have we omitted to a very re mindEmror that he addressed to us a different kind from his last before etter which brought us conso hewar letter o the f in I sameta l lation and not affliction. And, from some words in Prayed his Majesty, in the the Imperial he o n l i e t t e t l er . ), publishedw we in the journal afore saidefit he should completely Moved by this paternal OnwamnegoofodthaendChhuisrcohw,ntbheant, in , consideration of his remove our apprehension. charity, with which we are bound to to w a h t i c s h m o i v .n e d r the eternal safety of all, we reca lled that we all should one day have to render a strict account before the tribunal of Christ, and undergo a us ill o o u s g t h s t ev to er d e o j depended on him to merit mercy rather than justice. uedngermgeentitc,aalnl3di..wthhaatt therefore each of " Such are the things which, among others, we answered to the very great Emperor of the French ; and' we considered it our duty to communicate them to you, and to the whole Catholis universe, in order that you might know more and more that with the aid of God, and fulfilling the duty of our most im portant ministry, we try all without fear, and spare no effort to defend courageously the cause of reli gion and of justice; to maintain entire and invio late the civil power of the Roman Church, with its temporal possessions, and its rights, which app(r taiu to the whole Catholic universe ; and, finally to gu trantee the just cause of the other Princes." His Holiness then goes on to declare his reßdinef I laJi AO iSilli .t.; to eufferithe severest trials ; expresses his anguish at .‘‘ the danger of the souls in his troubled provinces, where pestilential .writings menace.each day more dpplotably the piety, the religion, the faith, and the purily . ef morals ;" exhorts those whom lie addresses ttedefend "zealously and incessantly the Catholic Clkurelr and tire-Holy See, " as well as the mainte nance bf:illet , tiiirl)o , :vec or the same See and of .the patrimony uf:S Peter ;" and concludes by exhort ' ingeth,(4l4,lo..offer their prayers to Heaven for the. attain9pt _these objects. The, encyclical letter "bears - date t e 10. th 'inst. (Fronithe Times.) It must -be :said 'flitqlie Emperor Napoleon that if he does sometimes -perplex us by doubtful policy 7ancl'EtAibigugui larguage, when he has once taken molutionsthere is no man who follows it out with :Mere cleesision. But a little while ago everybody was in doubt which side he was about to espouse-- 'w Nether he would throw his sword into the scale of Italy; or,,as the letter of the Treaty of Villa franca seemed 'to promise, lend himself—content ‘ls.th' tbst.s.renown of two splendid victories—to patebiag up the tattered glories of Austria. But the Emperor has 'Made his election ; and, having made it, he follows rout to its legitimate conclu sion with no falteribt - step. He has determined that he cannot do fc3rJhe Pepe what he will notdo for Austria, and viol Vis the case - of the Romagna exaotlysin•:the same light as he had before regarded Abe position of,Moslepa, Parma, and Tuscany. Al theugh the.SoverpigpVf a Roinan Catholic State, 'he has reftisselp sses7ria- difference in tbe case_ of Clearly ascertained mi. yernment between the Pope and other Italian Pi In his manner brjr: 2 g with the Emperor Na poldbvi the Pope ..iss4i6re than eodinarily fallible, even according to the rule which-we apply to tem poral potentates. For ten years has he been main -tained on his throne by French arms, and for ten years has he listened with a . passive and immutable obstinacy to the constant admonitions which he has received to reform his Government and redress the miseries of his people. No doubt, the Pope and his profound ecclesiastical advisers thought that they might safely despise the admonitions of a Prince newly seated on a'precarious throne, and who would be sure to befriend th* for the sake of a support from his clergy, so necesSiiry to the permanency of his dynasty. They never thought that the time would come when a Prince who had endured so much would at last assume a tone better corresponding to the power Which he disposes, and can scarcely now believe that the.hand which has hitherto supported them can be so suddenly and so unceremoniously withdrawn . . " The eldest son of the Church," " the Most Christian King," holds to th e h ea d o f th a t Church pretty nearly the same language as he would - to any temporal Prince. He tells him plainly that he has no choice but to acquiesce in the deci sion of his own revolted subjects, and that he will be no party to forcing back on the people of the Itomagna a yoke whioh they have just shaken loose. To such an announcement the Pope replied at the beginning of this month with a conditional blessing, and now,. at the cad of the month, has arrived at the point of launching an encyclical letter against the Emperor, in which there is neither blessing nor condition, but a downright and straightforward 'des nunciation. The breach has widened rapidly, and the thunder of theiarmsof this world is answered by those thunders of the Vatican which at one time or other have shaken the foundation of every throne in Europe: The Pope pats forward every consi deration except one that a deposed Prince could urge in his behalf. His rights are inviolable, hia• patrimony is sacred, his dominions are the residence of the head of the Church on earth, the necessary appanage of the successor of the Fisherman of Galilee. He is bound - not to desert them; he is answerable for the souls committed to his charge, -his - fate would break the bonds of obedience which bind other subjects to other Sovereigns. There is in the letter every plea that could be put forward ex cept the one that, would avail the most—the argu ment that the continuance of the government of the Pope is necessary to the temporal . well-beinc , of his Subjects. This lie does not venture to assert, or rather he-passes it by. as a thing. too far below the dignity of the Holy See to be worth stating at all: lools ! too much like an admission that the inhabitants of the Romagna had right to he' consi dered as somethin better than mere in struments for supporting the Papal dignity ; indeed, the existence of his people once admitted, the Pope might be shock tail_avi th-- sT)I4I ous Airte re nee_ t kat titr had a duty to peiform towards these same people, not only as priest, but as Sovereign. The Emperor of the French by no means flinches from the con troversy. His semi-official journals announce that, though the Emperor will still observe the utmost moderation towit - rds the Pope, though he will even defend him by arms should he be menaced with ex pulsion from Rome ; .yet, if the political authority of the Pope bb everywhere else destined to experi ence another crisis, the responsibility. will fall, not on France, but on himself. Nor is this all. The 'encyclical letter of the Pope appeared in the Univers, but it was the last song of the dying swan. The Univers has been suppressed. The right divine of the French Government to put down, in humble imitation of the Pope, all opinions which are not in strict accordance With its feelings or its interests, has been exercised without scruple, and the Univers is mute. The Pope has met a man as little disposed to allow his opinion to be contradicted as himself, and must feel, while he regrets the fate of his un fortunate advocate, some degree of satisfaction at this remarkable instance of the triumph of autho rity over opinion. Nay, we cannot doubt that our poor friend the Univers itself, did its unhappy des tiny permit it to moralise on its own fate, would pay the genuine tribute of an extorted and unwill ing adini:ation to the exercise of arbitrary power by which it has been overthrown. How often has England been reviled by the pen of M. Veuillot for the licentious freedom of its discussions, and for. the encouragement it gave to heresy and anarchy by leaving its people utterly unprotected to judge between the most contradictory arguments on every subject! The Univers fer once is on the . Protestant side, and has met from the eldest sen of the Church with exactly the same measure of toleration as it would itself have ex tended to Protestants. Smell reasoning as it has put forth is only valid so long as it is urged by the stronger party. The thoment that power is on the other side, the U n i vers i tse lf mus t accept the position of a martyr to the rights of man and a sufferer in the cause of free discussion. _ . - For ourselves, we may;ery—wcllafford to stand on one side, and leave the question to be fought out among Roman Catholics themselves, by the or thodox Emperor and his ally the Pope. There is no occasion for a Protestant nation to mingle in these broils. The Pope has no right to complain that to is who dissent from the religion of which he is the head he is nothing more than any other temporal Prince, to be measured by the same prin ciples and treated with the same fairness and im partiality. We never claim the right to interfere with his temporal sway; we deny his spiritual su premacy, and we may therefore fairly be excused if we, leave him to settle matters as best he may with the occupant of the throne of St. Louis, Soiereign of 36,000,000 of his spiritual subjects. For our own part, we find it difficult to believe that the loss of temporal sovereignty will be as great an evil as the Pope seems to imagine. That bauble which a Dioclesian or a Charles V. could fling aside "as no longer worthy the hand of a wise man ought not to adhere too firmly to the grasp of a priest, and we confess that we are more aston ished than edified by the littleness of that faith which can believe that the preservation of Divine truth on earth really depends on the acci dent of possessing a few square leagues of desolate land or a few thousands of discontented subjects. We should have thought that, freed from the littleness of a paltry sovereignty, exempted from the cares of government, from the scandal of lot-. teries, and the disgrace of a systematic perversion ofjustice, the successor of St. Peter would have stood higher, not only in his own opinion, but in that of the Catholic world at large, and that his authority on' m a tt ers connec t e d with the next world would have become more weighty exactly in proportion to his alienation from the pomps and follies of this. If, however, this be not so, and if the same power that makes him an infallible spiritual guide does not watch over the perpetuity of his temporal do minion, the Pope has no cause of complaint against the Protestant Powers, but must address himself to the Catholic subjects who will no longer tolerate his rule, and the Catholic Emperor who refuses any longer to be the instrument of his oppression.

The report of the commissioners appointed to in quire into the Corrupt proceedings for which the last election at Gloucester had become so notorious, W3S made - public yesterday. The report is -accom panibcl by the evidence taken before tire 'eorninis-- sioners, and : the Trhole forms a blue-book of the largest size, containing more than Goo pages.• The .evidence, however, has been already. published, and the report alone remains to be examined. The commissioners begin by stating at length the circumstances out of which the election' rose. They then, after premising that "the evidence which we have received places it beyond all doubt that hardly had Sir R. Carden announced himself as a candi date before the agencies of 'bribery and treating were employed to secure `his election," proceed to narrate the facts with which the public has been long familiar. The commissioners interrupt their narrative to say : " The evidence, as it affects the part taken by Sir W. Hayter and Mr. Moffatt, does not lead us to the conclusion that either of: those gentle men was cognisant of the bribery to which the money entrusted to Thompson was subseqoently appliod. Had not Thompion .been employed,'and . had any money reacned its destination through a banker, or been conveyed by a clerk to Gloucester, as Mr . Prise stated it - to have been his intention when he requested that it might be sent by " pri vate hand,'- no -suspicion could possibly have at tached eitaer to 'Sir W. ILtyter or Mr MOffaft, neither of whom had any knowledge of r. Wal ton's intenderAcaladiugsAerts - 7 - ,Flutiv - g: for,. saiding ;the money to him : in particular, otirer`than the directions they had received from .111 r, Price; and having regard to. the circumstances , under which ThompSon \vas employed, the fact of hiSfem ploymerit had in reality no influence on the transaC tions Whieli afterwards took place at GlouCester, and does not, in our opinion, make the case stranger against them than it would have heen.if the money had been sent by a clerk. Alekongh we think Mr. Moffatt did not give proper effect to the suspicion which his interview with Thompson Must have ex cited in his mind, yet the give credit to his emphatic statement that the money was sent down with' a, bona fide belief that it was to be - spept in licrfectly legal expenses.' "As regards Sir W. Hayter, we are. of opinion that he—relying on the fact which had been com municated to hini by Mr. Moffatt,' that the 'money • was provided at the instance and was to be sent down in obedience to the instructions of Mr. Price —relying also upon the character of Mr. Price as a guarantee for the legitimate expenditure of. the money, and upon the character of Gilbert, that his application would have resulted in the selection of a responsible person—had no reason to infer that the money would be employed in any other than a legitimate manner, and did not intend that such a person as Thompson should be entrusted with its conveyance to Gloucester. We therefore exonerate both Sir Yir' ~llayter and qr. Moffatt from the charge Of being: accessories to the bribery which was 'sub seqUently practised at Gloucester." • The moral disorder, the commissioners afterwards say, which seemed to have attacked the people of Gloucester, was " the Substitution, of money for principle," and they give it as their opinion that bribery will not be checked until the briber is regarded by law, and punished as the more cul ' pable persdn than the receiver of-the bribe. - Fur ther on again they say :—" From what we have stated we think - the deduction is inevitable that purity of election must be impossible so long a; voters, and the relatives of voters; are permitted to be employed as messengers at elections. Payments on account of - chairing;, cockades, ribbons, music, and banners, the fertile sources of bribery in earlier times, were made illegal by the 7th section of The Corrupt Practices Prevention Act, 185.1,' and it seems surprising that the employment of messem: gers, as it fell, within the spirit, should not have been included within the prohibitory language of that section.": , . conunissiouers .write as _follows of. Sir R. Carden:—" it is perfeetly.tlear• that at the tithe Sir R. Carden repaid Mr. Bernard the surnof £5OO he'had more than'a suspieion that it had been ilk . gaily Spent, and when questioned by us as to Whether he did not believe that it had been ex licii-ded-iii-itelbery, he said, "'I liad - no right to sup pose that at all. I was sure it must haVe been spent improperly, but I cannot say I supposed it was spent in briber; ; it might have been a fee to some man and when farther questioned as to the effect of the word 'improperly,' he said that by that word he meant illegally ;" tut as to Dribery,' he added, I knew nothing of it whatever.' Although we think there is great reason to believe that Sir R. Carden must have known not only that the money had been illegally spent, but that it had been expended in the purchase of votes, we hesitate to come to the conclusion, in direct opposition to his own declaration to the contrary, that he was guilty of bribery. The payment to Mr. Bernard would have been a payment rendering him guilty of bribery, as falling within the words of the second section of the statute 17 and 18 Vic , c. 102—' who shall knowingly pay, or cause to be paid, any money to any person in discharge or repayment of any money wholly or in part expended in bribary,' and it would have been our duty to have found Sir R. Carden guilty of the offence of bribery if we could have satisfied ourselves that he knew at the time he repaid the money that bribery had been committed ; but as an illegal expeniture of money does not.neces sarily imply the practice of bribery, and as we are un willing to question the truth of his statement as to the extent of his knowledge, we have not felt ourselves warranted in finding that he was guilty of that offence." Among the causes tending to engender corrup tion at Gloucester the commissioners point to the practice of employing a great number of attorneys on each side. They assert also " that the condition in life and the ostensible circumstances of many of the voters proved to have been bribed were not such as to afford any palliation of their conduct on the plea of poverty; but that, on the contrary, men apparently possessed of property, and occupying tenements of value much beyond the minimum qualification for a household suffrage, received money for their vote." The conclusion of the report, in which the re sults of the inquiry are summed up, we give below. "We find that corrupt practices extensively pre vailed at the election in 1857. We find that Sir Robert Waller Carden, William Philip Price, and Admiral Sir Maurice F. F. Berkeley were not privy to or cognisant of the corrupt practices which prevailed at that election. We find that the per sons named in Schedule A, to this our report an nexed, were guilty of bribery at the election in 1857, by corruptly giving or promising money or other valuable consideration to voters, for the pur chase of their votes, or on account of their having voted, or by corruptly advancing money for the purpose of bribery. We find that the persons named, in Schedule B, to this our report annexed, were guilty of bribery at the election in 1857, by receiving money or other valuable consideration for having given, or to induce them to give, or to refrain from giving, their votes. We find that the persons named in Schedule C, to this report an nexed, were gailty of treating at the election in 1857. We find that corrupt practices extensively prevailed at the election in 1859. We find that William Philip Price and Charles James Monk were not privy to or cognisant of the corrupt prac tices which prevailed at that election. We find that the several persons named in the Schedule 1), to this report annexed, were guilty of bribery at the election in 1859, by corruptly giving or promising money or other valuable considera tion to voters, for the purchase of their votes, or on account of their having voted, or by corruptly advancing money for the purpose - of bribery. We find that the persons named in Sche dule E, to this report annexed, were guilty of bribery as the election in 1859, by receiving money or other valuable consideration for having given, or to induce them to give, or to refrain from giving their votes. We find that the persons named in Schedule F, to this report annexed, were guilty of treating at the election in 1859. We find that 151 persons-named in Schedule G, to this report annexed, were employed as messengers or doorkeepers on the behalf of Sir Robert Carden at the election in 1859, and thc‘t those who are therein described as voters were colourably employed, and paid the sums set opposite to their names, for the purpose of inducing them to give their votes to Sir Robert Carden. We find that 112 persons were employed as messengers at the election in 1859, on behalf. of Messrs. Price and Monk, and that the persons named in the Sche dule 11, to this report annexed, were voters or rela tives of voters, and that the voters were colourably employed, and were paid the sums set opposite their respective names, for the purpose of inducing them " to give their votes for Messrs. Price an& Monlc. Finally, we report to your Majesty that, with rare exceptions, corrupt practices have for a long period prevailed at contested elections for members co serve in Parliarvent for the city of Gloucester."

We smile at foreigners who entertain se geand an idea of the Lord Mayor and Aldermen, - yet we should be ourselves at a loss to assign to these func tionaries their real - dignity and position. They are not the mere exaggerat 101 l and abuse that they seem. An indefinite feeling that the Corporation of London could not be included in the same category with our other municipal corporations led to its omission from the Municipal Reform Act. Sir G. C. Lewis ascribes this to the services rendered by the Corporation to the Liberal cause and to its liberal constitution. As it was the most popular body in the kingdom, so it seemed in no reed of reform. This, however, is not so near the truth as Mr. Ayrton's account of the matter. The Corporation of London, he says, as originally conatituted, was not a merely local body, but a union and representation of all the trading companies in the metropolis. It was not necessary; as we know, for the freemen of a com pany to reside, and thus it was compatible with the laws and principles of the Corporation that the whole of the metropolis should be included in the City of London. This made the City less of an anomaly and less of an abuse than it is commonly supposed. Yet, even in general opinion, the City is not a mere local constitution. Not only the civil functionaries, but most of the freemen who possess influence in City affairs, reside far omt of the City bounds, and have for the sphero of their business the country at large, if not all the world. It is this which has sustained the City in its exclusive as sumption of the metropolitan character ; for if it had dwindled into a mere local tradition of old London, like the 6i City" of Paris, it wocld long ago have been laid under the axe of Reform, Before the 'Corporation, then, be further reformed, we ought to know exactly what it is and what it is not. It is not merely a representation of a twentieth of this metropolis, that by lapse and error of time has stolen the right and title of the rest. Oa the other hand, it cannot quite be classed with the universities, as a community just anchored to one spot, but riding free on the tides of life and tho currents of thought. The City of London does not profess to represent the commerce and trade of all England. Yet it certainly represents, both in theory, in fact, and in public opinion, much more than is contained within the old City walls. To the 'difficulty of ascot tabling exactly what the City of London is, what it affects to be, and what it ought to be; must be ascribed the deiay iu its reform. It comes before us in a double character, and when we take it in one it falls back on the other. If we treat it as a local corporation, it appeals to its:inetroptiTifitti and trzeful aspects. If we propose to -e4trty--4-int---its metropolitan design, and include within its circle the two millions or three millions comprised within the modern metro polis, it then takes refuge behind the line of its old walls, and claims to be a favoured locality. Sir G. C. Lewis, as we understand, and as Mr. Ayrton interprets his bill, would sink the City to the or dinary municipal class, deprive the freemen of their votes, and restrict the freedom of the City to £lO householders. This, of course, is either a singular blindness or a bold indifference to the lofty preten sions of the City. If actually carried out it must tend to lower the City and its functionaries. On the other hand, is Mr. Ayrton prepared to show that the freemen of the present day do really re represent the higher element of the City? Aro they its metropolitan element? Are they the trading communities not so Much of London as of England? If they are not—if they are rather a scandal and a weakness to the City, then it is a mere sentimental indulgence to retain them, and any sensible reform must extinguish the class. We do not fight for shadows in these days. It is the present., not the past. that is in question. • If the City of London can really, with the aid of Mr. Ayrton, assert its metropolitan character, affi liate all trades, and represent all the interests of manufacture and commerce, we shall then be pre pared to give it a wider reign, and to give the whole metropolis the rights of its citizenship. If, on the other hand, the City has no such territorial ambi tion, but wishes to be simply a very rich munici pality, surrounded by some others not so rich, then its most romantic champions must see the necessity of treating it as we have done all the other corpo rations of the kingdom. The difficulty will be solved, in all likelihood, by practical remedies. The majority of the freemen below the class of £lO householders are no great strength or credit to the City companies, so they will therefore, probably be allowed to die away, till the order comes to an end. The coal dues and other ways in which the City taxes the surround,- ing metropolis or the public at large, will one by ono expire. Public opinion is quick to dis cover an actual wrong, and wherever there is a payment or a loss without its equivalent we may be sure the end is not far. Ih this way, either by Sir G. C. Lewis's bill or other measures of the kind, the City will probably become at last a merely local municipality. Once in that state, it cannot long escape the consummation its friends havelong dreaded. It will find itself merged in a huge me tropolitan constitution. For our part, we are quite resigned to this catastrophe, shocking . as it is to all civic feelings. It will not be in our time. For many a year to come the Lord Mayor's State coach, as well as her Ma; jesty's. scarcely less hideous vehicle, will rumble its appointed rounds. We shall have Guildhall banquets and Mansion-house balls. We shall have the revenues of a kingdom disbursed by clerks among the population of a moderate-sized Pyirfi, We shall have a thousand charitable .i n stitu tl t o ond, and as many separate and conflicting/ empowered to do everything short o eat jai heads off. But at length we shall hnadv et all the n pality with sufficient power to co r y e affairs of this great metropolis.,,Under themild for the water; all London, colic streets will not be torn up one day dictatorship of a real Mayor of another for the gas and th e sewers, another fof repair and another to begin the course over again: We shall have a power that can improve the me tropolis as' i *ell as keep it in order—that ca n d o for us Emperor, and an Emper or a l one, can do for what r.naris. We are aware th a t o f suc h a power there is a a jealousy in some q uar t er i . . The mun i c ipality of a Corporation which by that tine may embrace four millions will be formidable to the Government which meets within its own. limits. There will be collisions, in h whi the c pre sence of the municipality 'will give it a certain , ad= vantage. This we believe to be all nonfente,- Lon» don can never rival in power the mannfaefuring interest. Lancashire and the West Riding - alone will always be too much will of its own, and at va • 'lance with the interests and opinions of the whole, it will receive a lesson. But these are speculative considerations. What we have to do is to adopt practical improvements; and do what is now right, just, and good, leaving the future to takc its own course.—limes.
