ON TRUE and FALSE SPERMATORRWEA ; with the View to the Correction of wide-spread Errors in relation to the Treatment and Cure of Sufferers from De bility of the Generative system, or Sexual Hypochrondriasis. Translated from the German of Dr. PICKFORD. " Dr. Pickford is known to English readers by his frequent practical contributions to German medical literature. This is the first time, he informs us, that he has addressed himself to the non-medical reader. We trust that this may not be the last, if he shall detect any other equally flagrant evil which it may be in his power to correct."—London medical Gazette. " The editor has conferred a great boon on the sufferers from this distressing malady by translating this little book, and by laying bare the scandalous practices of unqualified adventurers, who profess to cure a disease of which they know nothing, with no other object than to fill their own purses. The difference between true Spermatorrhcea and the various forms of disease which resemble it are accurately de scribed, and thus a safe guide is offered for the treatment of the malady."—Medical Circular. " We have dilated so long upon the contents of the preli minary chapter, that we have scarcely left ourselves space for any notice of the subject specially treated of by Dr. Pickford ; but the moderate price at which the 'brochure' is sold, places it within tho reach of every one interested in the matter."— Dublin Medical Press.

On Monday last, both of the University crews having arrived safe and sound at their usual hostelries at head quarters, Oxford at Mr. Kirby's, the White Lion, and Cambridge at Mr. Heath's, the Star and Garter, they, as a recommencement of training, had a sharp spin over the usual course from Putney to Mortlake, and satisfied the few of their admirers who had the good fortune to be pre sent. If anything, the water being very lumpy, Oxford bore the palm, their style always being the best under those circumstances. On Tuesday, it having transpired that the Cambridge would have a trial with the London Rowing Club twelve, at five o'clock, Putney presented a very lively scene, for notwithstanding the inclemency of the weather, there was a large number of both horsemen and pedestrians, who ran up the towing path, likewise several fours, as well as the pairs who are at present train ing fe' thclitelivur-nrita.- Weiasse already informed ou r readers that the Oxfor oat, built broalte.-,-._ th e Lon .vowing Club boat ouse, and the Cambridge boat, by Searle, at Simmonds . s. The time for starting having arrived, there was a rush to scrutinise the members of the Cambridge eight, and certainly there can be no fault found with their present condition, the appearance of each man as he entered the boat being critically canvassed, The London 12 require no comment, except that they were without any training. The 12 immediately after starting took the lead, and increased the same until passing Simmonds's, when Cambridge held their own, and gradually gained until passing the Craven Cottage, when a barge shifting forced Cambridge to pass inside, and on crossing over, the superior weight of the 12 enabled them to plough through the rough water faster than their opponents. London held their way through - Hammersmith-bridge, notwithstanding all the exertions of the Cantabs. Soon after the want of condition on the part of the 12 became apparent, as the light blue began to draw up gradually, and upon nearing the Barnes bridge gave the gallant London crew the go-by, and even tually won easily. In the trial last year the Cambridge won easily. CAMBRIDGE. at lb 1. G. H. Richards, Trinity lO 5 2. H. J. Chaytor, Jesus 3. W. H. Tarleton, St. John's 4. J. S. Blake, Corpus 5. M.

The result must have been ,very satisfactory, as we heard a staunch supporter of aqua tics, as well as a first-rate judge, say," Them"s the boys for my brass."

HOMECIRCUIT.—LEWIS, The buei ness of the for March th 19. the county of Sussex commenced on Monday by the opening of the Commission, and both courts sat this morning, Lord Chief Justice Erle 'presiding on the Crown side, and Mr. Justice Wightman at nisi pries. The gaol calendar contains the names of 47 pri soners, but none of the offences appear to be of a serious character. There appears to be one charge of murder, but the prisoner who is charged with the murder of his wife ,cannot be tried, as he is insane, and has been removed to the county lunatic asylum, by order of the Secretary of state. The cause list containsl3 entries, of which six are special jury cases. Mr. Justice Wightman disposed of the whole of the common , jury cases during the day, and none of them presented any features of public interest. ,CROWN SIDE. (Before Lord Chief Justice Eric.) Edmund Shepperd, 39, a respectable-looking man, described as a beershop keeper, and a man of good education, was charged with wilfully and maliciously setting fire to a stack of hay, the pro perty of Ralph Walker. Mr. Roupell conducted the prosecution. The prisoner was defended by Mr. Ribton. The circumstances of this case were rather of a peculiar character. It appeared that the prosecu tor is an extensive farmer in the neighbourhood of Chichester, and the prisoner had been in his ser vice, but in July :.last there had been some dis agreement between them, and the prisoner left his employment without giving notice, and the prose cutor summoned him before the magistrates for so doing, but the summons was dismissed. There did not seem to be any ill-feeling between the pri soner and the prosecutor on account of this pro ceeding, and the former took a beer-shop, at Chichester, called the Alma, and was following that occupation at the time this affair happened. After seven o'clock in the evening, on the 29th of Octo ber, a large stack of hay upon the prosecutor's farm was discovered to be on fire, and on the prosecutor proceeding towards the spot, he met the prisoner coming in a direction from the stack, and he told him it was on fire, and said it was a bad job, and he went back with him and rendered assistance to extinguish the fire. On the same night the pri soner met a police-constable named Frogden, in the city of Chichester, and told him that Mr. Walker's stack had been set on fire, and he said it would be a " good go" for the old man if it was not insured. The constable remarked that it was very poor spite for any one to do such an act, and the prisoner then went away. No clue could be obtained as to the guilty party until about a fortnight afterwards, when the prisoner met the same constable, and asked him whether he had heard anything more about the fire, to which he replied that he had not. The prisoner then said to the constable, " You can take me down to the police-station." The constable asked him what for, and he then said, " For setting fire to Mr. Walker's rick. I am the man that did it, and no other man. I can not live here, and I must go somewhere else. I have got the same dress on now that I had when I set fire to the rick. If I had known that he was insured I should not have done it, and I should not have done it if Mr. Walker had !behaved to me like a gentleman." The prisoner, when he made this statement, appeared to be slightly the worse for liquor, and the constable took him to the police station, when he informediMr. Everett, the super ! intendent, what the prisoner had stated, and he cautioned the prisoner, and told him to be careful what he said, as he should have to repeat it to the magistrates. The prisoner, after this caution, made the following statement :—" I am the man who set fire to Mr. Walker's rick about a fortnight ago ; that is all the evidence I have to give ; and if Mr. Walker had been there, I would have set tire to him if I had had half a chance." The superintendent took down this statement in writ ing, and then asked the prisoner if he had any objection to sign it, and he said he had not, and without any hesitation, put his name to the state ment. The prosecutor, in answer to questions put by Mr. Ribton, said that the prisoner worked as hard as any one else to extinguish the fire, and that he gave him some money for his services, and he also said that since the prisoner had been in custody upon this charge there had been another incendiary fire upon his farm. Mr. Ribton made a very ingenious pa i nesi to the a„e,,le a the. pr 5e..,,., said he was instructed, that notwithstanding the statements the prisoner was alleged to have made to the police officers, in reality he was entirely innocent of the offence imputed to him, and that at the time he made those statements he was in a state of excitement from drink, and did not know what he was saying. Of course, if they believed the story told by the prisoner, there could be no doubt of his guilt, and there was an end of the case, but, he said, in the annals of crime frequent instances were recorded of persons who had confessed themselves guilty of crimes of the most serious description, even that of murder, when it was satisfactorily established afterwards that they were entirely innocent ; and in a recent very cele brated case, that of the Road murder, a man had given himself up as the guilty party, when it ap peared that he was at Portsmouth at the time the murder was committed. He then called the atten tion of the jury to the fact that there did not appear to be any ill-will between the prisoner and the pro secutor, and it was admitted that he was the worse for liquor at the time he made the extraordinary statements upon which alone he was now sought to be convicted. And there was also this extra ordinary circumstance in connection with the case, that it appeared that since the prisoner had been in gaol another incendiary fire had taken place upon the prosecutor's property, which he could not pos sibly have had anything to do with. Lord Chief Justice Erie, in summing up the care to the jury, said, that undoubtedly the principal, and, indeed, almost the sole evidence against the prisoner, consisted of his own confession, and cer tainly where a confession was made by a person, knowing at the time what he was about, it was as conclusive evidence as could possibly be given. They had heard the circumstances under which the prisoner had made statements to two different officers, and they must deal with the evidence as men of common sense, and see whether there were any circumstances that would tend to induce:them to believe that when the prisoner made these statements he did not know perfectly well the effect and nature of what he was saying. It was very true, as had been stated by the learned counsel for the prisoner, that there had been many instances where persons had accused themselves of offences of which they were innocent, but in almost every case of the kind with which he was acquainted there was always some motive or object for such a proceeding. It did, however, frequently happen—and it was for the benefit of the honest and well-conducted portion of the commu nity that it was so—that persons sometimes found the consciousness of guilt such an uncomfortable companion in their bosom, that they could not help relieving themselves of it ; and it was for them to decide whether this was not one of those cases. The jury, after a short deliberation, returned a verdict of guilty. Lord Chief Justice Erle said they had come to the same conclusion that he had himself formed from the evidence, and he had no doubt that, either from the influence of drink or from the feelings that operated in his own mind, the prisoner had truly confessed himself guilty of this most serious offence. It was a crime of the most dangerous description, and, as an example to deter others, he felt it his duty to pass a severe sentence, and which was that he be kept in penal servitude for 10 years. NORTHERN CIRCUIT.—YoRK, MARCH 19. (Before Mr. Justice Hill and a Special Jury.) THE QUEEN V. GROWTHER. The defendant was charged with receiving bri bery at Wakefield. This case was tried yesterday, and the jury re tired to consider their verdict at 20 minutes to six o'clock. They were locked up all night in consul tation together, but failed to agree upon a verdict. At the opening of the court this morning the jury made their appearance in the box, when Mr. Justice Hill inquired if there was any pro bability of their agreeing to a verdict. A Juror—None whatever, my lord. The Judge—None whatever—is that so ? A Juror—Yes, my lord. ',Ye cannot agree. The Judge—There is, then, no prospect ? A Juror—No, my lord. The Judge—l am sorry to hear this in so plain a case, because it is my duty to detain you until it becomes necessary for the health of any one of you that the jury should be discharged. A Juror—Confining us, my lord, cannot produce unanimity of opinion. The Judge, after a short pause, said—l feel that so strongly that I will take upon myself the respon sibility of discharging you. Mr. Bell, the judge's aesoeiate-►—Gentiemen, you THE PRICE OF GOLD. The quotation of gold at Paris is about 3 per mille prem., and the short exchange on London is 25.40 per £1 sterling. On comparing these rates with the English Mint price of £3 17s. 101 d. per ounce for standard gold, it appears that gold is about 6-10ths per cent. dearer in London than in Paris. By advices from Hamburg the price of gold is 427 per mark, and the short exchange on London is 13.711 per £1 sterling. Standard gold at the English Mint price is, therefore, about 7-10ths per cent. dearer in London than in Hamburg. The course of exchange at New York on London for bills at 60 days' sight is 1051 to 106 for first-class bills. Although this shows the exchange to be against England, the high rate of interest in both countries, and the loss of time before the gold is received back from the American Mints, render it doubtful if any profit can be made at the present rates by sending gold to the United States.

(Before the Assistant Judge.) Jacob Demolins, 40, described as a pianoforte tuner, was indicted for stealing a picture, the pro perty of George Henry Christie and others (Messrs. Christie and Manson). Mr. Platt was counsel for the prosecution. The prosecutors were the well-known auctioneers, of King-street, St. James's, and the case, as proved by the evidence against the prisoner, was, that he frequented their auction-room, and stole two pic tures, one of a pair by C. Ruysdael, which had been sent for sale to Christie and Manson's, but which, having been stolen, had not been put in the cata logue. The prisoner sold the picture to a dealer, and information having been received, he on offer ing another painting for sale, was given into cus tody, when he said he had been employed as an agent to sell them for a man named " George" of whom he could give no further account, name, nor address. That the pictures were stolen from Christie and Manson's rooms was admitted, but the prisoner declared that he did not steal them, but was em ployed by " George" to dispose of them. It appeared that the prisoner had frequented auction-rooms for the purpose of examining and testing pianos. He was found guilty, and he then said he could produce witnesses as to his former good character, and to show that he had worked'at pianoforte tuning, and the learned judge postponed the sentence until the end of the week, to afford him an opportunity of doing so if he could. Anaise Chantegrenill, 28, was indicted for steal ing four yards of silk and other articles, value £2O, the property of Joseph Ruttens, her master. Mr. F. 11. Lewis prosecuted; Mr. Cooper and Mr. Gresham appeared for the defence. This case occupied a considerable time, but the circumstances were very simple. The prisoner, it appeared, escaped from a place in the South of France, called Oreillac, having defrauded a num ber of creditors, and went to live for a while in the Rue [St. Honore, Paris, whence she came to Lon don, via Havre-dc-Grace, with passports in false names. Being a first-rate milliner, she was em ployed by the prosecutor, or rather by his wife, Madame Ruttens, milliner, 64, Berners-street, at £52 a-year with board and lodging. It was proved that she had been making up bonnets, &c., with the prosecutor's materials, on her own account, and a great number of remnant pieces of silks, ribbons, lace, &c., sworn to be the prosecutor's property, were found in her possession. The r roof of identity of some of the articles was singular. Some of the ribbons had been purchased of a Coventry firm, on account of the distress prevalent among the wea vers, and Madame Ruttens produced the corres ponding pieces, also a piece of silk, a portion of which her own bonnet was made of, and was of peculiar manufacture, and value, cost price 16s. a yard. The prisoner said she had these things in lieu of wages, but that was not only denied by the prosecutrix, but her wages book was produced, which showed that she had been paid. Suspicion having fallen upon the prisoner she was watched, and was detected carrying off a bundle which she had secreted, and which contained portions of the property laid in the indictment. The jury found the prisoner guilty, and the As sistant-Judge sentenced her to 12 months hard labour, and observed, that in her own country with her antecedents she would no doubt have received a sentence of a severely penal character. Mr. Albert, interpreter in the case, communi cated the sentence to the prisoner, and ehe again said she was not guilty of felony. The prisoner was the mother of a child by a gen tleman in Paris, who had settled upon her 10,000 francs for its maintenance, to be paid in monthly sums, and the bond, by which it was secured, was ordered by the Court to be given up to her friends. Charles Keen, a young man of very respectable appearance, and stated to be well connected, was indicted for stealing six bracelets, the property of George Hooper Stone, and another two brace lets the property of Adolf Jahn and another, his partner; and further for stealing two bracelets, the property of the said Adolf Jahn and another. He pleaded guilty. Mr. Kemp appeared for the prosecution, in structed on behalf of the Clerkenweil Precious Metals Protection Society, and stated that the pri rvia e a was undoabtedlv well connecte d , b ut ha d a or his reap— to defraud tradesmen of valuable jewellery bt7ti'Ce lets chiefly, which he either pawned or sold to re finers. Some he disposed of to Mr. Bryer, of Bar bican, at 655. per ounce, which were afterwards sold at 70s. One was produced out of five sold there, and two Mr. Bryer said had been sold to a Mr. Levy, of South-street, Finsbury ; two, his assistant thought, 'had been melted. The Assis tant Judge said refiners ought to be very careful in receiving such property, and ordered the one brace let produced by Mr. Bryer, and two produced by a pawnbroker, on which £l5 had been advanced, and any other which could be found and identified, to be restored to the owners. His lordship sentenced the prisoner to 12 months' hard labour. Mr. Bryer produced a testimonial of a first-rate character of the prisoner, by whom he said (and produced the account) he_had lost £167. The prisoner, who seethed much dejected, and said not a word, was then removed. " TOUTING" IN PRISONS AND POLICE CO URTS. At the Guildhall Police-court, yesterday. Isaac Sturt, a porter in the employ of Messrs. Hutton and Co., Berlin wool and fancy warehousemen, of Newgate-street, was brought up for final examina tion before Sir J. Musgrove, relative to the charge of robbing his employers, in whose service he had been for 30 years, of property to the value of about £2OO ; and Mary Winter, described as a char woman, was charged at the same time with receiv ing the property knowing it to have been stolen. Mr. Humphreys, jun., conducted the prosecution; Mr. Wontner appeared for Winter ; and Mr. Lewis, jun., for Sturt. The circumstances of this case have already been reported, and the depositions being now complete, the prisoners were fully committed for trial. After which, _ _ Mr.Wontner said, now that the case was disposed of, he wished to draw the attention of the magis trate to a system of " touting" for business in the prisons by persons representing themselves as soli citors, which was at once disgraceful to the parties acting in that manner, and prejudicial to the in terests of the prisoners under remand. Having already appeared for the prisoner Winter on seve ral previous examinations, he, after the last hear ing, had occasion to send his son to Holloway pri son, where females under remand are confined, for the purpose of taking further instructions for her defence at the next examination • and he was very much surprised to find that his Client had already been visited by a " Mr. Bramwell," of 17, South ampton-buildings, or some one representing him self as Mr. Bramwell's clerk, and that, consequently, his (Mr. Wontner's) son could not be permitted to see her. He could not at first conceive how Mr. Bramwell could have been introduced to her, but it afterwards occurred to him that this person might have been retained by the other prisoner in the case to defend them both, and he accordingly insti tuted inquiries at Newgate, where Sturt was con fined, and there ascertained that a man of the name of Empson, who called himself Mr. Bramwell's clerk, there being no solicitor of the name of Bram well of 17, Southampton-buildings, either in the " Law List" or " Post-office Directory, Sturt and asked if he had a solicitor , or if had seen he should act tor him. Sturt, he found, bad not employed this Empson to appear either for him or for the female prisoner, and he there fore thought it his duty to expose the system, as such a mode of ob taining business was contrary to the practice of the respectable portion of the profession, and m os t dis reputable in the parties adopting it; and he hoped the aldermen of London would assist him in putting a stop to this obnoxious system by preventing the practice of it in the City prisons. It was within the province of the visiting magistrates to prohibit such persons from continuing to obtain business in that way. Sir J. Musgrove asked Mr. Wontner if he suggest any plan w hi c h wou ld h ave the effect of suppressing the ev il! Mr. Wontn er sa id t h e ev il m i g ht be co if could the gaol ers were i nstructe d to re fuse ad re v mission en t ed to such persons, unless the prisoners stated they had engaged them. Sir J. Musgrove said there w as an order of the Court of Alderman, that none but their solicitors and articled clerks should be allowed to practice as advocates before the magistrates of the City police courts, and he, for one, would never allow that order to be infringed; bat to prevent pers ons visit ing prisoners was quite a different thing, as they must be tender of the rights of the party accused, and take care that no unnecessary ob s t ac l es are (‘ ~' - -4 G r lr r-~ _~- !% ,- thrown in the way of getting up the bitst; defence to the charge against them. Mr. Roe, the summoning officer, said that, neither "Empson" nor any one else ever • received the Tightest facility or encouragement from him, with regard to the system of "touting" at this court, and he thought he could say the same for every other person connected with the court. Sir J. Musgrove said he had been given to under stand that the way such persons obtA. ined their information was by attending the courts: of justice, and becoming regular " hangers-on," ai s it was called, and, in many cases that were :remanded, they, having heard • the names given i n evidence, visited the gaols, repre sen ti ng they were engaged by the prisoners, and so gained admission. to " tout" the persons accused. Mr. Wontncr said that that was procisely the course pursiwd, Mr. Humphreys, jun., said the class (ll' persons referred to did not confine their practi De te pri soners, but carried it on to a considerabl e extent amongst prosecutors, who were often intaluced to allow the parties touting them to condui,ct prose cutions, by the promise that it would be done without any personal expense to thernsel! . ves ; and the way in which that was managed was by giving the so-called brief, and very brief it was as far a s instructions went, to counsel, who asked caw or two questions during the trial, for which a sum. of money was obtained from some fund connected with the court sufficient to pay a small fee to the counsel and leave something for the person acting as the solicitor. • If such persons succeeded in getting moneyalso from the prosecutors it was generally thrown away, as the business was managed in an incompetent manner, and their blundering often led to the acquittal of the accused ; the ends of justice were entirely frus trated, and not unfrequently actions for false im prisonment ensued, and prosecutors mulcted in heavy damages. Sir J. Musgrove admitted it was a very serious matter, and said he would take the earliest oppor tunity of bringing it under the consideration of his brother magistrates. ITALY AND TIIE PAPACY. The Paris Presse has the following striking arti cle on the Papacy and Italy, showing the antago nism between the two from a very early period of Italian history :—" ' The Papacy,' says the Monde this morning, has always lived in peace with Italy; and so long as Italy remained Christian she surrounded with respect the Sovereign Pontiffs.' To express one's-self thus one of two things is necessary—either the Ai onde knows very little of the history of the Popes, or else it calculates largely on the ignorance of its readers. Not only has Italy not always lived in peace with the Papacy, but, on the contrary, she has been the country where the Popes have met with the strongest and most con stant opposition. Dating from the accession of John VIII. (A.D. 872), they have been at feud con tinually with all parties. In .the course of the 105 years that elapsed between the death of For mes° in 896, and the election of Sylvester in 999, there were 29 Popes, 11 of whom were strangled or assassinated, three died in prison or exile, 14 were only Popes in name, and one could only reign in the society and with the protection of the famous Theodora. This woman, marching at the head of a powerful family and party, commanded as a sove reign in Itoma;iiliere she disputed the authority of her relative, the deacon Sergius, who aspired to the Papal chair. Conquered and driven out re peatedly, Sergius, on being supported by Adalbert, the Marquis of Tuscany, returned as conqueror to Rome in 904, as Mahomet had done to Mecca ; he had himself proclaimed Pontiff; and was reconciled to Theodora, who i gave up to him her daughter Maroza. or Marietta, by whom he had some children. These women, braving public indigna tion and popular riots, disposed of the IChurelt made Popes and had them strangled, until Maro% was herself thrown into prison by her own son Alheric, who turned his brother John XI., son of Sergius 111., out of the Pontificial see. To Alberic succeeded, in 955, Octavian, who, uniting the tem poral with the spiritual power, made himself Pope under the name of John XII. ; and what a Pope ! He was half a pagan, laughed at the sacrament, blasphemed like a Turk, and led the life, not of a priest, but of a soldier. He was deposed by Otho 1., reascended the pontifical throne, where he took a horrible revenge, and in 964 was assassinated, having been caught in Itagrante delicto, like Alex ander of Medicis. To the Maroza family succeeded that of the Crescentius family, descendants of Theodora 11. The tragedies continued, and with them the old disturbances, assassinations and exiles. Rome offered the spectacle of the old bar baric regencies. Otho 111, put into the chair his cousin Gregory V., who kept himself in it by terror and died by poison. For 300 years the Roman Church was a battlefield. Constantine, brought to the chair by force, was turned out, of it by force, for Adrian Ifit;UtlllieMPneccril o e sedhink. p anodiithinaclie ~ ii; him assassinated. i. the crimes committed under his predecessor. Leo 111. took to flight to escape assassination. Pascal I. had two dignitaries of the Church murdered in his own palace ; Sergius 11. had John, his rival, cut to pieces ; the election of Benedict 111, and of Nicholas I. brought about an insurrection and almost a schism ; Leo V. and John X. were strangled ; John XI. was deposed and imprisoned ; Stephen VIII. died of his wounds; John XII. was stabbed to death ; Benedict V. died au exile in Germany ; Benedict VI. and John XIV. were assassinated by Boniface VII., and he was massacred in his turn by the frenzied people ; Gregory V. was expelled and incarcerated ; John XVI. was deposed and put to death. The rebellion against Benedict IX., who was expelled for his crimes, as Pope Victor 111. himself acknowledged, was smothered by Conrad in 1047. But the peace only lasted six years, and the Pope had to take to flight again. lie returned to Rome a second time through blood and over the dead bodies of his sons ; be maintained himself in power until 1045, the period of his third flight. We have hitherto spoken only of the revolutions of the Romans. In 1057 began at Ancona a series of revolutions in the other towns of the Pontifical State. The Romans have risen in insurrection 150 times against the Papacy; the Roman States,.taken in a lump, 111 times. To give an idea of the obsti ' nacy of the Romans in rejecting the temporal dominion of the Papacy, we will limit ourselves to reminding our readers of the principal facts since the 12th century ; the deplorable end of Arnold of Brescia in 1155; the exile of Alexander HL in 1159 ; the splendid episode of Rienzi in 1347 ; the general insurrection under Boniface IX. in 1375 ; the new Roman republic proclaimed by the people in the time of Eugene IV. in 1434; the conspiracy of Stephen Porcari, under Nicholas V., in 1453 ; the general revolt of the provinces on the death of Alexander VI., in 1503 ; the Roman Revolution, under Clement VII., in 1526 ; the revolution of 1590, that of 1618, and the entire history of the Roman States down to the French Revo lution. We have no occasion to recall to mind what was the fate of the Papacy from 1796 to 1815 ; and no one, except the Atomic, has forgotten the movements of 1821, 1831, 1843, 1845, and 1848-49. All that we can say is that in no country have the people evinced more obstinately the most implacable hatred t the most persistent hatred, of their Government. Such is the fashion in which the Papacy has always lived at peace with Italy. The Papacy in Italy has been, on the contrary, almost always either little esteemed, or tailed in laughed , even at the ti me s question, or openly attacked. The It ali ans have at excommunication when excommunications made the whole Christian. world tremble and shook upon r their thron es th e most powerful Sovereigns. excommt ricated, degraded him se lf a t C a - W hen Henry 111., the Lombards were treating Gregory VII. b n e o i s n s g a, as a heretic , simo ni ac , and adulterer ; when Gre gory 11. excommunicated the Rom ans , they drove him out, pursued him with arms in their hands, and compelled him to revoke his e xcom tions ; when Innobent IV. qu i tte d France , after and having set Europe ag h ast b y d epo sing excom municatingmunica- the Emperor Frederick 11., he entere d Rome himself i n terror at the threats of the Romans, and did not dare stir abroad from his well-known d ow by n palace. How many times have not the Venetians, Florentines, Milanes e, war to Papal excomm u nications e and Bolognese ? T n e h s e e at V • - history of the interdict Venice is unique of its kind. Even under the wretched Spanish dominion, under the tortures of theiSpanish Inquisition, Italian made its an ti-Papisrn influence and strength felt ; then it wa s that Fra Paoli Sarpi wrote. The whole of the Italian literature is notoriously anti-Papal. Dante scourges the Popes; Petrarch does not spare the lash ; Boccaccio treats them with contempt ; all the Italian romance writers, including Monsignore 3latteo Bandell o , Bi s h op o f Tortona, have taken for their plots the vices and excesses of the Court of Rome and Italian clergy. Doubtless, we need not speak of Macchiavelli. All, or nearly all, the Italian historians and poets are anti-Papists; Man zoni, despite his genius, has tried in vain to stem the stream; and Cesare Cantu, by an attempt of the samedescription, lost his popularity immediately. The Mends pretends that the war between Italy and the Papacy, between the Revolution and the Church, has been excited lately.' The foregoing facts,nL though very incomplete, being written e/ frs error. calamo, prove that such is a great hi storica l The public spirit of the Italians is no w what it has been essentially in every age;h misrepresent it for 011 y and on e must either grossly ignore history , or w the sake of a bad cause , to dare to affirm that the Papacy has always Ji v ed in peace with Italy.'
