opinion of nations and Cabinets, which is now opposed:to a venturous enterprise, will show itself favourable to that only solution of the Italian question, which will for ever close the era of wars and revolutions in the south of Europe. _ _ _ " We are equally convinced that supreme reasons lay upon us the obligation of respecting the city where the Supreme Pontiff has his see. The question of Rome is none of those which can be solved with the sword alone. It meets on its way moral obstacles only to be overcome by moral £ orces ; and we are fully confident that sooner or later those forces will bring into the gates of that glorious metropolis a change consistent with the wishes of its people, with the aspirations of all good Italians, with the true principles and the lasting interests of Catholicism. " It was a wise and patriotic eounsel to await so salutary a change from the work of time, and from the great and in calculable influence which regenerated Italy will exercise on the opinions and judgcnents of the Catholic world. But even were our thought erroneous, the presence of the French troops in Rome ought alone to make us desist from any design, however remote, to stand sword in hand before that city. " In our present circumstances to confront those French troops would be not merely unheard of folly; it would be a grievous fault and guilt. There are generous follies, which, although they entail enormous sacrifices and sufferings, do not bring with them the ruin of a nation ; but such a ruin would certainly befall Italy from any intention to combat the armies of France. So monstrous an ingratitude would inflict on the brow of our country a stain which long cen turies of suffering would not efface. " The soldiers of France occupied Rome when other sol diers of that nation, led by their generous Emperor, fought for us at Magenta and Solferino. "If their presence in that city was deemed altogether in compatible with the true interests of Italy, wo ought neither to ask nor to accept the aid of our powerful neigh bour to conquer our freedom and independence. To turn against her at the present day those very arms which her victories have placed in the hands of so many Italians, would be a deed which must seem revolting to the mind of any of us—any who may not be utterly seduced and carried away by a sectarian spirit. (A burst of applause.) "But if we are not for the present in a condition to exert ourselves in behalf of Venice and Rome, we are not equally helpless with regard to the other parts of Italy, which, although risen to liberty, feel the want of imme diate, efficient provisions. "Gentlemen, if the Italian cause at last awakened the universal sympathy of Europe, if the minds of the most civilized and educated nations show themselves favourable to it, this must especially be attributed to the admirable moderation of ideas, to the calm behaviour of the various provinces of the Peninsula on their first shaking off the yoke which the foreigner had laid upon them. Those pro vince■ afforded the most signal proof of the truth and depth of the civilization attained'by the Italian people; by in stantly removing all germs of anarchy, by adopting without delay those principles of sound organization which obtain among the nations most advanced in the exercise of liberty, and by evincing their firm will to issue out of a provisional state, and aspiring to the institution of a Government free and national, but at the same time strong and opposed to any excess. By this moderation and concord, by this unshaken firmness, the people of Tuscany and Emilia ended by per suading diplomacy that the Italians are capable of construct ing a vast kingdom, based and organized upon broadly liberal principles and institutions. " Matters must proceed in the same manner in Southern Italy. Woe to us if those people were long to continue in the uncertainty of a provincial rule. Disturbance and an archy, which would soon break up, would be the cause of immense evils and immense disgrace to the common coun try. The great national movement, breaking from the path which it has hitherto followed with marvellous regularity, would lead to extreme dangers, as well to the lately enfran chised provinces as to those which have been for more than one year free and independent. This must not be—this cannot be allowed by the King or the Parliament. "The generous Sovereign who is hailed by the whole of Italy as the mover and leader of the national resurrection has special duties towards the South of Italy. The work of emancipation began in his name ; round his glorious standard the freed people crowded and pressed. Before Europe, before posterity, he is answerable for their fate. "King Victor Emmanuel does not intend to dispose at his own pleasure of the people of Southern Italy ; but he is n duty bound to give them an opportunity of putting an end to their provisional condition, by most openly, most freely giving utterance to their wishes. " What may be the result of their vote P The answer lies in the electoral urn. As Italians, we ardently wish that the inhabitants of the provinces not yet united should act as those of Central Italy have done ; and that with the same enthusiasm, with the same unanimity they should declare in favour of that principle of unification which may bring the whole Peninsula under the constitutional sceptre of Victor Emmanuel. "As Ministers of a Sovereign free from personal ambi tion, and who consecrated his sword and life to the great achievement of vindicating Italy to the Italians, we must firmly pronounce in his name that, whatever may be the vote of those people, it shall be respected. " We harbour the best hopes that you will agree with us on this subject. We all wish to bring to a termination the great edifice of national unity, but it must rise from the spontaneous consent of the people, not by any deed of con straint and force. " These considerations induced the King's Government to ask the Chambers that power should be granted to it to accomplish the annexation of all those freed provinces of Italy which, questioned by means of the direct universal suffrage, should declare that they wish to form a part of the numerous family of people already sheltered under the wings of the glorious kingdom of Victor Emmanuel. " The Ministers do not think that the form of suffrage may be a subject of discussion. It will be the same already adopted in the 2Emilia and Tuscany. The people will be asked to pronounce distinctly whether they wish to be joined to our State, or not, and no conditional vote shall be ad- , mitted : for it is indeed our determination not to impose the act of annexation upon any part of Italy, but he must with equal frankness declare that we do not think any an nexation should be proposed subject to any special condi tion. Gentlemen, this would be tantamount to giving ono or more provinces the power to impose their will upon the provinces already constituted, and to fetter down the future organisation of the nation, introducing a radical vice and a fatal germ of antagonism and dissension. On the other hand, we do not hesitate to affirm that the system of an nexations bound to conditions, which we reject, is contrary to the nature of modern communities, which, if they may, under certain peculiar circumstances, conveniently organise themselves under federal forms, no longer require or admit a compact of dedition ; a mere relic of the middle ages, a mode of union not very worthy of an Italian King and people. " After the unthought-of and unlooked-for events, which we have witnessed in Italy it must be clear to all men that we are no Federalists. Neither do we mean to be Centre lisers, as we prove by our views respecting the adminis• trative organisation of the State. Nevertheless, we would always prefer either the Fede ral or the thoroughly Central ised system to a political arrangement by which the pro vinces, although joined under the same sceptre, should, in the most important legislative matters, possess an authority independent of Parliament and the nation. " Here we must observe that, although all those who have contributed to the triumph of the national cause accept in principle the idea of the annexation of Southern Italy, yet none, whose love for their country is no matter of doubt and whose devotion to the sacred person of the King is usually known, deem it expedient to put off the act of an nexation till the work be completed, that is, till the ques tions of Rome and Venice be finally solved. " We think if this design could be carried into practice it would have the most fatal consequences. Why should we keep Naples and Sicily in an anomalous state? There can only be one motive for it, and that is to avail one's-self of the work of revolution to accomplish the liberation of Italy. Now, this would bo a most deplorable error. At the point we have attained, when it is in our power to build up a State of 22,000,000 of Italians, a strong and unanimous State,which may dispose of numberless means and resources, material as well as moral, the revolutionary era must close for us. Italy must with great security commence her perils(' of internal order and organisation. Europe would otherwise have reason to believe that revolution is not a means for us, but an end ; and her benevolence would be withdrawn. Public opinion, so favourable to us hitherto, would declare against us, and enlist in the ranks of our enemies. The accomplishment of our Italian enterprise would become not only more difficult, but, perhaps, altogether impossible. ti Revolution and constitutional Government cannot long co-exist in Italy without producing by their dualism an op position and a conflict which would only turn to the benefit of the common en em y . "These contingencies toescaped the attention of th at gene roushither patriot who opposed the annexatio n of Naples andfollow es and Sicily. Bat if ho had go od reasons to that system so long as the Marches and Umbria parted the South f rom now t the Centre and North of the Peninsula, too persevere in that system would have no othe r effect than oppose is i usel t ess delays and hindrances to the nat ional cause. Theren e nature of events a logic which triumphs over the stoutest h will, and agoras • t which the best intentions are powerless. Let revolution be made permanent in Naples and Palermo, from the very shortly the authority and comm and will rd, pass y ' l the glorious hands of him who wrote on his standard, a . into those of men who for this prac and Victor Emmanuel,' tical formula substitute the dark and mystic symbol of sec tarianism, God and the people.' (Long and loud applause and cheering.) " We repeat,—that provisional and revolutionary order of things which might have reasons to exist in Naples and Sicily must come to an end as soon as possible. This is re quired by the interest of those provinces for which the pre sent state of things is a fertile source of very great disorders ; and it is required still more by the honour and interest of the national cause. How could, in fact, without great detri ment to the dignity of the Crown—hew could King Victor Emmanuel consent that Italian provinces should be so long a time governed in his name as conquered provinces, with out appealing to the free expression of the people's wishes, according to the solemn and legal forms of popular suffrage? It its upon these growzds, goutlomon, that I hope for your approval of the bill which I have the honour to lay before you. " Only, in the important and extraordinary circumstances in which our country is placed, Parliament should not limit itself to deliberate upon the legislative dispositions which the unfolding of political events may render opportune or necessary. _ _ _ " It is also your duty to consider whether the men who have in these days the honour to sit at the Council Board of the Crown are equal to the high task committed to them, and if they seem to deserve the confidence of tho nation. All material means placed within reach of the Executive power, and all authority granted to it by the law, will al ways be scanty and weak unless the King's Ministers cw►n reckon on that moral efficacy, that irresistible authority, which in free constitutional Governments flows from the perfect agreement between the greatest powers of the State. " The vote of confidence you gave the Ministers a few months since enabled them to overcome difficulties, both numerous and serious, which stood in their way. Now that they may hold with a steady hand the helm of the State it is necessary that they should know, and that Italy should know, whether their deeds and behaviour during this inter val were of a nature to diminish the confidence you put in them. " This is all the more necessary, as a voice justly dear to the multitude expressed to the Crown and the country itl distrust of us. " Such a declaration, indeed, painfully affected us, but it could not turn us by a tittle from our purposes. IFaithful guardians of the Constitution, of which we must be the most scrupulous executors, we think that the voice of one citizen, whatever signal services he may have rendered to the country, should not prevail against the authority of the great powers of the State. " It therefore ie the duty of the Ministers of a constitu tional King not to give way before pretensions not very legal, even if they be backed by a splendid halo of popula rity and by a victorious sword. " But as we would fail in our duty by giving way to those pretensions, so we should have failed in our obligation to wards Parliament if wo had not put the question to it whe ther it be ready to sanction the sentence pronounced against us. " The decision must result from the discussion which may arise on the bill now laid before you." The house adjourned as the Minister read his last words, as the bill must be taken into considera tion in the Bureaux, and before a commission, pre vious to its public discussion. MONEY MARKET AND CITY NETTS. CITY, Two o'CLocic. During the last few days there has been more activity in the Foreign and Colonial Produce Mar ket. Sugars have been in increased demand, pas. ticularly for refined descriptions for exportation to France, owing to the reduction of the duty under the provisions of the late treaty. Tea has continued quiet, but a fair business has been done in coffee, at slightly reduced rates. Cocoa, rice, and fruit have met with a moderate enquiry, without material change in prices. Saltpetre continued dull, and a few parcels sold at public sale went at a reduction in value of is. per cwt. Tallow remained in good demand for both present and forward delivery, at enhanced quotations. In the Liverpool Cotton Market yesterday a fair amount of business was recorded at about previous rates. The sales were 12,000 bales. The Railway Share Market continued very active, and prices were again higher. The bills which arrived at maturity yesterday, the *th of the month, were met in a satisfactory manner, no failures of importance having taken place. A sum of £16,000 was withdrawn from the Bank of England yesterday for exportation to Spain ; and it is expected that the next Australian supplies will be similarly appropriated. The directors of the South Austrian and Lom bardo-Vcnetian Railway have made a call of £2 per share payable on and after the 15th proximo. Notice has been given that the 6 per Cent. De benture Bonds of the Great Western Railway of Canada, falling duo on the 18th inst., will be paid on and after that date. A meeting took place yesterday of the crediteas of Smith and Co., of the Whitechapel Distillery, when the liabilities were stated at £33,302, and assets £44,050, thereby showing a surplus of £10,700. After some discussion, it was resolved that the estate should be wound up under inspec tion. The market for Public Securities is unfavourably affected by an excessive supply of Stock, several extensive sales for delivery having lately taken place. A small amount of business has been transacted to day, but it has created heaviness, and the indica tions of buoyancy noticed yesterday have entirely disappeared, Consols being 931 for money, and 931 for the account. India Loan has receded 1031 d ; ditto Deben tures are firm at 96:, and the Bonds are heavy at ss. discount. Exchequer Bills remain at ls. to 4s. premium. _ _ Foreign Securities have been dealt in to a fair extent, but prices, in most instances, are depressed. Turkish 6 per Cents. are 731 to 74 ; ditto New, 56 to 569 ; and the 4 per Cents. are firm at 1011 i. Venezuelan have receded to 231 ; ditto 11 per Cents., to 121 ; Brazilian 41 per Cents. are 871 88; Peru vian 3 per Cents., 739. Spanish are steady, at 49. The Ocean Marine Insurance Shares are 1s 21 prem. ; the Thames and Mersey, t j prem. ; and the Universal, t t prem. Messrs. D.

At the recent meeting of the Northamptonshire Agricul tural Society, Mr. KNIGHTLIIY, M.P., remarked that several allusions had been made to the volunteer movement. It must, how ever, be remembered that, although the present Govern ment had fostered as much as they possibly could that gerat national undertaking, it was to Lord Derby's Government that the original organisation of that corps was due. (Cheers.) And although the present Government had com menced the fortifications of our dockyards, that movement had received the most cordial and the warmest support from every member of the Conservative party. (Cheers.) He believed in fact that every man who had the smallest pretensions to be a statesman heartily concurred in that movement with but two solitary exceptions, and they were Mr. Gladstone and Mr. Bright. Those gentlemen of the peace-at-any-price party had always alleged that it was a waste of time and a useless expenditure of the public money to fortify our dockyards and arm onr population. They said that although the Emperor of the French might go to war for an idea, he had no idea of over attacking England ; that, thanks to that blessed commercial treaty, the French might now sell their silks and wines to us, and buy our coal and iron in return ; that not only were they the best customers for our manufactured articles, but they looked upon us as purveyors of a raw material which a bountiful Nature had plentifully given us ; and they added, France had everything to lose and nothing to gain by going to war with England. But those gentlemen seemed to forget that there were motive powers in the human mind at least as strong as the powers for buying and selling. He (Mr. Knightley) had been in France a good deal, and he thought, as lago said, ho did not know that country's disposition well, and he firmly believed that successful invasion of England was the object of the sleeping and waking dreams of a considerable portion of the French nation. (Hear.) It would be the most popular proposition that could possibly bo submitted to the French army, and no man in Europe was more thoroughly convinced of the fact than was the Emperor of the Erench himself. (Hear, hear.) In 1848, at the most momentous period of his strangely eventful life, at the time when he became a candidate for the presidency of the French Republic, the Emperor Napoleon issued, as a sort of political manifesto, a revised and corrected edition of his works, written chiefly while he was an exile in this country In that e diti on of hi s wor k s there was th t eo lowing very extraordinary passage :—" Je reprCiseno fol lowing vant vous un principe tine cause uno defait.

SINGULAR CHAIt(,E.—NOVEL AND DANGEROUS MODE or COURTSIIIP.—Henry Smith, a young man, potman at the Clarendon Arms, North-row, St. George's, was charged before Mr. Beaclon, with being concealed in the house, No. 2, North-row, for an unlawful purpose. From the evidence of the complainant, a Mr. George Palmer, saddler, 2, North-row, it appeared that on the pre vious night he was in the Clarendon Arms taking refresh ment, when the landlord's brother missing the defendant went up to his bedroom, the door of which ho found locked. He knocked, but getting no admittance, came down again. A suspicion flashing across his (Mr. Palmer's) mind he returned to his own house, went down, and on going to his daughter's bedroom found the door locked, and on her refusing to open the door it was at length burst open. Mr. Baadon—Did you find the defendant there fa Mr. Palmer—No. Mr. Beadon—Why was he given into custody P There is no proof that he had been in the room. Mr. Palmer—Why, his cap was left behind on the floor—(laughter)—and he must have got out of the win dow. I do not wish to press the case. My daughter is here, and she will perhaps explain the matter to your worship. (Laughter.) The daughter, who had been sitting in court for seme time, exchanged looks with the defendant ; but, as might be expected, remained silent, and apparently seemed to little relish haying the attention of a crowded court called to her by her father under the very peculiar circumstances. It having been explained by the constable that the parapet had been the means by which the defendant and complainant's daughter had carried on their clandestine courtship, Mr. Beadon, seeing how the case stood, discharged the defendant. THAMES. ATTEMPTED SUICIDE BY A BOY.—Edward Frederick, a boy about 14 years of age, was brought before Mr. Selfe, charged with attempting to commit suicide in the London Dock. Richard Newton, a police constable, 66 H, said he was on duty in the London Dock last night, and heard a splash in the water close to the Old Gravel-lane bridge, and saw the boy struggling in the water. lie throw a rope to the boy, which he refused to lay hold of, and he then procured the drags and got him out, more dead than alive. He applied the proper means, and soon resuscitated him. The prisoner said he had thrown himself from the bridge. The boy, in defence, said he was out of work and in distress, and he could not get anything to do. He had several brothers and sisters, and not wishing to be a burden to his mother any longer, he determined on self destruction. Mr. Selfe—Which was a very rash and wicked resolve, indeed. Self-murder is opposed to all laws—Divine and human—opposed to God's holy ordinances. The mother of the boy, who appeared to be much affected, said her son could not get work, and he was much troubled about it. She had scolded him, and he exclaimed, " I will go and drown myself." _ _ Mr. Selfe--Was he sober when ho used these words ? The mother—Yes, sir, he was quite sober. Mr. Solfe remanded the prisoner to the Clerkenwell House of Detention for a week. • TIIIS DAPS 111ARRETS. CORN EXCHANGE. The malt trade was in a healthy state, at full quotations. Oats, owing to large importations, were less active, but not cheaper. The arrivals from abroad are over 36,000 quarters. Beans commanded very full prices, and there was some inquiry for peas, at extreme rates. Flour realised Monday's currency. There was a very poor show of English wheat in to-day's market, both as regards quantity and quality. Good and useful parcels were in fair, though by no means active, re quest, at full quotations ; but low and damp qualities were much neglected. We were again well supplied with foreign wheat. In most kinds a fair amount of business was transacted, at very full prices. There was rather less animation in the inquiry for floating cargoes. Barley, the supply of which was limited, was in steady request, at extreme rates. ARRIVALS TILTS WEER. Wheat. Barley. Malt. Oats. Flour.

She never can believe that every one, even the Emperor of the French, is against her temporalities, and that it would be a relief to every one if the Pope quitted the Holy City. We see this in the tone taken by her advocates and cham pions everywhere. If any one wants to see a great Power grovelling in the dust ho has only to cast his eye over the comments of the Romanist party upon the Italian movement, showing the most wretched, impotent, blind rage, and nothing more. This is the way in which the Roman Church takes a great trial. She does not know what to do ; she has no view, no plan, no line of action before her, ,no policy to meet this new state of things; she is simply taken aback, and storms at her invaders. As if it were of any use to be in a rage, and as if those whom she complains of were the people to be at all moved by it ! Rome has great credit for versatility, for s ee i ng her way under altered circumstances, and finding ; but itthleoo k s proper na w treatment .f she had a tod o s I give t e events all herself, and were dizzied and thrown off her balance; as if her head w ere gone past and the future ;as were'f a sh dea e could only think the everything was a blank to her when the triple crown once went. This is the more astonishing, because the Roman Catholics cannot point to a single part of the scope and system of their Church whi c h requ i res the tem poral power of the Pope for its support. Their theory is quite complete without it ; they confess that it is; they boast that it is. They would be ashamed to show their faces in the p resence of Christendom and say that they needed the tempo ral power, and had not a perfect, complete, and efficient basis without it. They have, therefore, always been particular and earnest in telling us that their ground is a spiritual one, and a spiritual one purely and exclusively, and that any temporal position connected with it is a mere accident, which has nothing to do with the life of the Church, and can be thrown off, like the most superficial drapery, without the least loss to the substance of the Church. They have always told us that their Church wields no fleshly weapon, but the sword of the Spirit ; that she rules by moral power only, and that her one sole instrument for the support of her authority is spiritual censure, whereby she exercises the right, which belongs to all religious bodies as such, of removing from her pale the dissentient and the disobedient. If this is their ground, then, what harm does the fall of the temporal power of the Pope do to the Roman Church ? She can go on just the same, and do all the acts which she has done. The whole ground of discipline is open to her ; the whole ground of doctrine is open to her. She can excommunicate right and left as much as she pleases, there is nothing to prevent her; she has still the sword of the Spirit, and can brandish it as she likes. She can go on "developing" Chris tian doctrine to her satisfaction ; she added one doctrine to the faith a year or two ago, she may add twenty more, if she likes, within as many more years • whether Rome is under P a p a l ru l e , or French rule, or Sardinian rule, there will be nothing to prevent her. She is not likely to meet with any opposition to her creed-making either from Napoleon 111. or from Cavour, who are pro bably not much interested in this invisible depart ment; but if she did she has it all in her own hands. She can make and un ma k e , p l ant an d p l uc k up, pull down and build, and work all her will and pleasure in the whole world of spiritual discipline and doctrine. What more does she want ? She has the perfect command of a complete spiritual machinery, extending in every direction over the four quarters of the globe ; she can summon every Bishop of her communion, from Mexico to Macao, to her central tribunal; she can hold any Coun cil she likes, the Propaganda can go on, the Index Expurgutorins can go on, the Cardinals can go on, Consistories can goon, Conclaves can go on, St. Peter's can go on, the Vatican can go on. What is there that cannot go on all the same ? What is there to dread, then, in this loss of a temporal king dom, and why cannot the Pope throw himself upon the inalienable spiritual power of his office, and take his stand upon his claim to be the spiritual centre of Christendom ? That is his natural course, his politic course, the only course which religious honour leaves him under such circumstances as the present. The temporalities go whether he will or no; why, then, not, at any rate, make a virtue of necessity, and say that he can do without them when he cannot keep them? Such a course would be sure to awaken the highest enthusiasm of the whole Roman communion ; it would kindle a flame in the whole Roman Catholic world; the signal would be given and the note struck, all would know that a new order of things was commencing, and the result would be that a new line would be marked out for the Papacy by g eneral consent. A fresh start would thus be gained, and the basis of a new eareer would be laid down, and the new course of events would receive that treatment which every Roman Catholic would wish for it. The new course of events would have the suitable interpretation put upon it, and would be stamped in the most favourable way as the inauguration of a new era of the Papacy. But this is not the idea of the Roman Church, or at any rate that party in it which surrounds the Pope. It clings to an old state of things with desperation, because it has not the least notion how to deal with a new state of things. The whole future is a blank to it if the Pope be not a temporal Monarch. They look forward to it with simple confusion and dismay, and know not what will be come of the Church. It is without a view and without a policy. But this is imbecility ; it is drivelling. The Pope is all that St. Leo was if he is deprived of every foot of land in Italy. He is a great deal more than St. Leo was, for even the spiritual supremacy made many long strides after St. Leo's time. Why cannot he fall back upon the spiritual supremacy, and throw up the adventitious secular addition which is grudged him, and which is the fruitful source of the most awkward relations and collisions ? But, instead of this, what is the present hope of the Roman Catholic world ? A Iwar ! " A war," says Archbishop Cullen's organ, i" will cool this raging fever; grape shot will expel these evil humours." The Gallivan Prelates sre echo these sentiments. An European war, th_ o e r n ih i s to be the Heaven-sent remedy and restoratg i e t i s the Papacy; that is the last resource, and t party. A last chance which now consoles Papaltheebishop suitable consolation indeed to a Christian istendom, who, and the professed head of Co hr t hi n k war the most ac cording to his creed, ou g ht t the Roman Court can not divest itself of the , hateful of all things ! But belief that this is merel y a assin danger from a par ticular quarter, which a general convulsion v p u t aside. It will find ma y pres ent move agai ns t th e itself mistaken.
