(Front the Times) Who, does Europe suppose, is the long-looked for champion of the Pope ? Who is the coming man who has been so long waited for to give legions and hosts to the small knot of ecclesiastical tyrants who are at once so weak, so obdurate, and so cruel? Since Austria has officially declared her self powerless any further to back her sympathies by arms, the Pope and his College of Cardinals have looked round with desperate and eager glance for some one to come to the rescue. Antonelli has been standing like Sister Ann upon St. Angelo, hut there is not a sign of aid from any quarter. There is a little cloud of dust in the direction of Ireland, but it is only kicked up by Dr. Cullen's lambs. Mrs. Bluebeard has the stain of blood upon her keys, and she must pay the penalty. There seemed to be nothing for the Pope to do but to re peat what his predecessor did 43 years ago, when Austria was the despoiler —to protest and submit. At last, however, there is a faint cry in the dis tance that a champion is coming. Never mind whence he comes or what his faith may be ; if he bring a sharp sword and a strong arm he shall be welcome. If he were a Mahomedan it would not be the first time that the High Priest of Latin Christendom has been in alliance with Mahomedan Sovereigns against Christian Princes. Be he black or white, come he from the north or the south, if he only have tke power to raze Bologna to the ground and subjugate Romagna, there are old men in Rome who will welcome the solitude and call it peace. The champion thus rumoured of is none other than the Czar of Muscovy, the High Priest and Monarch of the Schismatical Greek Church ; the man who has such heretical notions about Easter, the pretender who claims the guardianship of the Holy Places, the rival who goes far towards holding that the Pope is Antichrist. The head of the Greek schism is, according to the Nord, ex pected to come to the relief of the Latin hierarchy. The story is told with many circumstances, and, although we believe that the Nord has long since lost exclusive right to represent Russian opinions which it possessed during the Crimean war, yet, as every little scintilla of hope, must be just now a great blessing to the Bishops who arc dealing about their ecclesiastical censures to such very inattentive audiences, we will tell the story as the Nord tells it. The tale of this specially informed paper is, that as soon as Alexander 11. had read the cele brated brochure, "Le Pape et le Congres," he set to work to ascertain whether this very terrible pam phlet had an official origin. Having convinced himself that it was writton, if not by the hand, at .n y the Inspiration of the Emperor of the French, he sought an immediate interview with the Duke de Montebello, the French Ambassador at the Court of St. Petersburg. So important was the com munication made by the Emperor to the Duke that we are assured by the Nord the latter thought it necessary, by immediate recourse to the telegraph, to put Count Walewski, at that time Minister for Foreign Affairs, in possession of the incidents of the interview. It seems, according to this authority that the Emperor of RusSia declared to the French Ambassador that he had seen with great regret the policy of the French Government veering round continually to all points of the political compass, and always presenting itself to the eyes of asto nished Europe in some new and unexpected phase. The Emperor lamented that these things should happen just as all the great Powers, anxious for peace and repose, were looking to the coming Con gress as to a harbour of safety. The Imperial critic, in succinct analysis, pointed out to the French Am bassador all the objectionable principles contained in the pamphlet, and declared decisively that the Government of Russia would never, under any cir cumstances, be found aiding in the propagation of such principles. The very existence of Russia de pends, we are told, upon principles entirely anta gonistic to those which the Emperor of the French has made the basis of his present policy. Russia is at this moment proving, by the reforms she is working out under an impulse which always takes its initiative from the Czar, that she does not hesitate to advance with the spirit of the times. But with her it is essential that the impulse should come from above, and not from below. What is to her salutary reform when commanded by the Emperor would be an odious revolution if forced ou by the people. Therefore, to be consistent with himself, the Emperor of Russia must think the Pope in the right when he calls upon his good friends to come and kill his insurgent subjects ; and—seeing that, according to the information of the Nord, the last reply of the Pope to the Em peror of the French has been that " he will die, if necessary, but never surrender"—it is to be ex pected that the Emperor of Russia will come to his assistance, and protect him in his perseverance in so good a cause. This is too thin a possibility even to whip up into a cupful of hope. When, if ever, Gen. Goyon and his Frenchmen shall go forth from the Eternal City, and when the last Zouave shall have embarked from the Mole at Civita Vecchia, the Pope may strain his eyes for a long time before be will see the Cossack lances glistening over the Campagna. Whatever tray be the peculiar notions of Russia as to any abstract principles announced in this pamphlet, we may rest very sure that no sym pathy with the Pope lies at the bottom of Russian motives of action. The Greek Church loves not the Latin Church, and the Latin Church loves not the Greek Church, any more to day than it did that little while since when the two went to war as to which should hold the key of the Church of the Holy Sepulchre. It is not with European facts that Russia is disposed to disagree ; it is only that she refuses her assent to the abstract principles by which those facts have been defended i❑ the impe rial pamphlet. Alexander 11. claims to be Czar of Muscovy by divine right; Napoleon 111. of France claims to be Emperor of the French by the will of his people. Napoleon 111. naturally argues that the people of the Romagna have a right, in the absence of a tolerable Government, to choose their own ruler. Alexander 11. will not, of course, hear of such a principle. But a discussion about words is a very different thing from a fight about facts. It has happened in all ages of the world that great Kings and groat States have done, or have suffered to be done, many acts which outrage all the principles upon which their own policy is based. Cardinal Richelieu, while he put down Protes tantism in Trance, out ultra-Protestant disorders in England. Louis XVI., while fighting for his own prerogative, did not hesitate to send an army to aid the Americans who were in rebellion against their lawful Sovereign. Every page of history is full of such examples. No crowned head has ever hesitated a moment to incite rebellion in an enemy's country, but he would hardly care to tell his own subjects that the rebel cause was a good cause, or that they were justified in resisting their lawful Sovereign. The Pope may depend upon it that, among the many States which are standing round and watching his decay, there is none which feels more hearty joy in his misfortunes than Russia. In St. Petersburg or Moscow there dwells no love of Rome. There is no chance of the two great schisms uniting in our day. Russia has, happily, many other things to think about just now than to entertain the chivalrous idea of provoking a war with all Europe for the protection of her old. enemy. She is at this moment engaged in chang ing her whole social organisation ; she is making herself presentable in civilised society by manumit- ting her slaves. This is quite work enough to em ploy all her energies and all her statecraft. Let her leave the Pope to the nations of his own faith. Surely he cannot be better off than in the hands of Napoleon 111., who is at once his dutiful son, the most Christian Emperor, an the successor of St. Louis (From the Morning Poet.) The Pope seems bent on kindling a religious war. The telegram which informs us that the Giornale di Roma of Tuesday contains the an nouncement to the Catholic world that his Holi ness has rejected the counsel offered to him by Napoleon 111., and that he is determined, at all hazards, to reimpose his authority on the popula tions, which are just as determined, at all hazards, to resist it—this telegram distinctly marks the turning-point at which the Italian becomes trans formed into a Papal question. No one at all acquainted with the character of the reigning Pon tiff will doubt that, as far as his personal feel i ngs have influenced this decision, the decision is per fectly sincere, but just as little will it be dou btedn by any one who understands the presfnit to . n o e re a n d temper of the Italian people that he w to i r l m co i n n j whin g a tempest not so easily . allayed—a 8 the authority still retained over h the t A h l e arc s h anm es ee ,.p fa e tl r- t haps over Rome itself, may sal ' e the L ega tions. l with that avo overthrown n o apprehension a return of the Court of Rome to pe le m th a e y d s a u y i s t of th oßon y n l o a d fnwitnessing defied hnl endsifa c o e f repre sent itself as threatened by, and ready to endure, the martyr's trials, but the sole pers ecu ti on which it is doomed to s uffer consists in withholding from it the power . to carry fire and sword through its revolted provinces—to fine, a n d b ast i nado, and im prison, a nd banish, and tort ure, an d shoot down—a form of persecution widely different from that to which the early . Christians we re e x p o sed under Diocletian. Nero and Rome can no l onge r endure this heavy trial, and summons to her aid the filial reverence and atta c h men t o f th ose more di s t an t children, who implicitly obey the maternal autho rity, just because they have not so close an insight into the details of the domestic management. The admirable picture which Macaulay presented in one of his earliest essays, of the contrast between the faith of the medieval Italians, and of the nations remote from the seat of the Papacy, may, to a cep. tain extent, find its present counterpart in the tone ; of the national assemblies of Central Italy, as op , posed to that of the pro-Papal d emons t rat i ons in the ' sister isle. Those who have an opportunity of look ' ing behind the scenes, who see the working of the ropes and pulleys, who observe the manufacture of scenic thunder and the display of scenic tears and curses, at which the player himself laughs the mo ment he has left the stage—those estimate at their true value the terrors of the clerical melodrama, at which little children scream, and nervous women fall into hysterics. Brittany and Cork may shudder and sympathise; but Romagna has been too long behind the scenes. Though the remark may appear somewhat harsh and cynical, we do not hesitate to affirm that con sidering the course which events have taken, the Italian nation owes even more to the peace of Villa franca than to the victories of Magenta and Solfe rino. We are therefore disposed most cordially to echo the language held by Mr. Ilonckton Milnes, a few days ago, though for reasons not exactly coinciding with those which he has given. But for the peace of Villafranca and the subsequent develop ment of the Papal opposition Italy would neither have known her real weakness nor developed her real strength. Many thoughtful and educated Italians would have acknowledged theoretically the antagonism between the Church of Rome and the national cause itself, including all the elements of national power and progress. In acknowledging all that antagonism they were merely giving their assent to the doctrines enounced by a long sneces sion of Italian patiiots and Ltatesmen, from Dante to Gioberti. But from this speculative censure, or even from the well-grounded contempt, f oun d e d oa personal observation, of the Court of Rome, to which we have already referred, there is a wide interval before we reacli the conviction which the Vatican seems resolved to drive into twenty-six milliOns of Italians; that its spiritual and temporal despotism go hand in hand ; that the first masks the second ; that the second invokes and rests upon the first ; that they form but two branches of the same npas trunk ; and that their pestiferous influences will never be removed until the tree be cut down root and branch and levelled with the ground. But for the peace of Villafranca Italy would not have learned so soon that she has worse enemies than the Croats; nor would Europe have been worried and startled by the spectacle of a Power which, to prop up its own tottering dominion, seeks to excite confusion and discontent in all other States, and employs the dread mysteries of eternal life to rivet more strongly fetters of an oppressed and suf fering people; and the position of the Emperor of the French, united with England for the protec tion of. Italian independence, and opening up to his own subjects an unexpected vista of commer cial liberty, affords, perhaps, better guarantees for the effectual liberation of the Peninsula and the permanent peace of Europe than would have been given by his triumphant return to his capital after the last Austrian soldier had recrossed the Isonzo or quitted Venice. In the attitude of unyielding obstinacy now assumed by the Papacy Italy re quires all the aid and counsel of her ablest and most energetic sons. It is, therefore, with a feeling of unmingled satisfaction that the return of Count Cavour to office will be hailed by every friend of Sardinian progress and Italian freedom, and that the best wishes of the friends of Italy in all other coun tries will attend his efforts to construct a popular and patriotic Cabinet. The Government and people of this country, true to the principles which have animated them from the commencement of the pre sent contest, will lend their unhesitatindsupport;to those measures for the extension and security of the Sardinian State, which, in the common interests of Italy, Count Cavour may endeavour to carry out. Austria, we believe, possesses neither the will nor the power to prevent their execution. France, we knew, has declared her firm intention to sanction no arrangements at variance with the national will. The efforts of Rome are clearly directed to paralyse that will, by introducing the elements of social, civil, and religious, strife amongst the Italian popu lations. There is therefore the greater necessity that the chief direction of affairs be restored to the statesman who has already combated so long and so ably all the arts of Rome, and to whom hll parties can look up as their leader in a moral ehmpaign not less important than the dipl oma ti c one which he carried on so successfully in the first months of the past year_ POLICE INTELLIGENCE-( THIS DAY.) MARLBOROUGH-STREET. THE BELT AGAIN.—FORTUNATE ESCAPE.—LiOnd Lockwood, a private in the second battalion of the Cold. stream Guards, Tower, was charged with assaulting Mr. William M'Donald, of the Scotch stores, licensed victualler, Oxford-atreet, with his belt. Mr. M'Donald said that about nine o'clock the previous night the prisoner, accompanied by a cabman, came into his house. The cabu i rm called for some gin and the soldier put down a shilling to pay for it. Seeing that the prisoner who was intoxicated was about to drink some of it, it was taken away from him and his money returned. The pd. soner then became very abusive, and h e (Mr. M'Donald) was sent for. Ile told the prisoner to leave the house, when he made use of the most disgusting language he eves heard, and threatened to strike him. Finding he was be• coming very violent he sent for a constable, and before one arrived the prisoner took off his belt, and aimed a meet fearful blow with the buckle at his head, but which, for• innately, he warded off with his hand, receiving a sever. bruise, probably thus saving his life, lie then closed with the prisoner and threw him, and several gentlemen coming to his assistance; the prisoner was held down, all the while swearing and kicking violently, till the arrival of a cone stable. He had never seen a more violent man in his life. Mr. Bingham asked the prisoner if he wished to say any. thing, and the prisoner replied that he was sorry for it. Mr. Bingham asked what sort of character the prisoner bore, and was informed it was very good. Mr. Bingham said he was sorry a man who bore such a character should put himself in such a position, but it ASS absolutely necessary that peaceable citizens should be pro tected from such dangerous weapons as he considered the belt to be, and with a view to putting a stop to it he should fine him 45, or commit him to prison for two months. ZlilS DAYS MARKETS. CORN EXCHANGE. Nearly the whole of the supply of English wheat on offer, in to-day's market, was in very poor condition. The few fine samples on the stands were readily disposed of at s trifle over last week's currency, but damp qualities were • dull inquiry, at late rates. The supply of foreign wheat was moderately good. The business done was not to say extensive, yet prices, gene rally, were well supporte 1. Floating cargoes of grain were a slow inquiry. Barley—the show of which was moderate—changed hand* to a fair extent, at late rates. We have to report a slow sale for both old and new malt, at about Monday's prices. _ Good and useful oats were in request, at full currencies, but inferior parcels commanded very little attention. Both beans and peas maintained their pz evisus value. The flour trade ruled firm, at extreme rates. ♦RRIVALS TUTS WEEK Wheat. Barley Malt. Oats Flour.
