nishinent. The prem. If the tree exponent of public
feeling, seems rather to xvielse that the &Ming and '
tranneat ministries (half a dem have bsaaasaed
sines Fie PC?' accessitm) ere at an and, nod • per-
manent and apparently etrong eilednistratirm in die
ascendant. The Pallade, ultra-demoorat, bails the
calling in of an experienced doctor in polities rather
than the consultation of quacks and empiric.; the
Lebaro, ultra-retrograde, forgets all the hard
knock. which Rossi dealt the Jesuits and their politi-
cal section, and ventures to predict his tardy repent-
&nee, with promise of full amoilment for all his past
misdeeds. It is as if the Oxford party, with Inglis at
their heed, were to sink the remembrance of Peel's
net of '29, and receive him back all " naanointed and
onannealed " as leader of true blue interests.
Ravi will disappoint both parties. He knows the
elements of weakness and incoherency at work in both
camps, and will pursue his coarse of intelligence and
independence. He is no longer the mere tool of Louis
Philippe, but in a position to exhibit untrammelled
statesmanship. The only competent and sensible
Italians I have ever had experience of were those who
had been some years out of Italy, and Roan has seen
men and cities beyond the Alps to some purpose. The
bestropes we have had were those who ha? long served
apprenticeship to statecraft in the office of nuncio at the
various foreign courts, and it is to the circumstance of
Count Ferretti having been in South Amaies, and
far enough to have shaken the dent of fallen exclu-
siveness from his sandals, that an enlarged and liberal
comprehension of human affairs has been imparted to
his observant mind. Halbo, Areglio, Manson;, Alfieri,
Oioberti, would have all been unconscious of Italian
backwardness, had not the comparative advance of
other countries forced itself on their perceptions ; and
yet, in spite of each ocular evidence, Oioberti still
clings to the notion of the natural and ineradicable
pre-eminence of Italy and its children over all the
nations of Europe, a theory which is the groundwuek
of his essay Del Primate ; oblivious of the fact that It
is no longer corn, wine, and oil, that form the staple
of a country's opulence, or the source of its prosperity
—that oral, iron, and ships, are the modern desiderata
for supremacy—all wanting in Italy.
Non till insperiam pelegi ocsromque trideutem !
Every native and nntravelled Roman thinks that all
the wisdom of mankind is concentrated within the
walls of Aurelian—that his town is the umbilical'
terre—that European visitors Bock hither actually
for enlightenment, and the result has hitherto been
the undisturbed prevalence of more than Chinese rou-
tine and stupidity.
Every hotel is closed up here. There is not a single
wealthy stranger in Rome. The resident nobility
have moved off to the mountains round about. Most
of the foreign artists have left months ago in despair
of employment. Roman sculptors are negotiating
for a transfer of their labours to England. The late
ministry, alarmed at the disappearance of specie from
circulation, made an order against its exportation",
which Rossi has just revoked, knowing something of
currency questions, and fully aware that specie was
always flowing out of Rome for the purchase of
man•fctured goods, the only corrective to that drain
being the expenditure of travelling limiters. The
Roman newspapers al a silly enough to make mem
on the state of "seraphic" poverty to which the trea-
sury is reduced; this sorry joke is levelled at the
Franciscans, who, for their notorious impecendositT in
the middle age", claimed that angelic appellation.
(Its n'avaisin pas de quoL) The humble attempt to
improve the steam navigation of the river is another
to 'o of jesting, the new steamer being described as
I power. Such is the childish tone of our
"best instructors."

At the Sciarra club, which had the earliest know-
ledge of Lord Minto's appointment last year, the
rumour is that Lord Clarendon, elevated to a mar-
quint*, is to come here at Christmas as first British
minister to Rome. But as this rumour is given in
ootjimetion with and dependent on the final abolition
of the lord-Sentwasorry of Ireland, you are enabled by
this contingency to test the probability of the arrange-
ment Events in Ireland are of such a character se
to render the noble earl's withdrawrl just now not
quite convenient, and should the name of Clarendon
dote the list of hiah viceroys there are abundant ma-
teri -ls out of which to work a novel (by his friend
Ilulwer), " The Last of the Lord Lieutrnauts."
His grand adversary, *Hale, still lingers here, in
the hope of procuring a bull (were it only a short-
horn) to gore his flanks in the matter of public edu-
cation for the middle closes. John Tuam's perseve-
rance in his hostility to enlightenment is worthy of
the days when vaccination was considered flying in
the face of providence, and life insurances rank =s-
licker. Infant schools are still denounced by Fran-
soul, the Archbishop of Turin, who is cousin to
Fransoni of Propaganda; and at this very moment
a strong opposition re being got ap by the Mllrfales of
Italy against the confirmation by the Pope of the
newly-appointed Archbishop of Genoa, the choice of
the King and of the citizens, for the mole reason of
the countenance be always gave to infant schools, and
his zeal for the instruction of the people.
Mercer:alio has been in the receipt of Rockite
notices, intimating to him that he had better get
about preparing for "eternal flames," as his intended
usawins anticipate no better fate for him in the
other world. The blunt charcoal dealer lights his
pipe with all such billets-doux.
The death of a very amiable artist, Mr. Nichols,
architect, stabbed at Naples, has thrown a gloom over
our artistic circle, by which he was greatly beloved.
P.S. I think it right to add a postscript to my
Utter with reference to the recent act of the Pope in
conseising the Jesuit Spaniard, Peter Clever, an
occurrence which may be construed into a recognition
of the policy of the order in Europe lately, and their
unfortunate alliance with the great and influential to
keep down the poor and the people. The fact is, that
Peter Qaver pursued the very opposite line of policy,
and from the year 1610, for upwards of forty years,
till his death in 1658, he lived at Certhagena ;
and in the Mexican district, devoted to the service,
corporal and spiritual, of the lowest of God's crea-
tures, the aggress who worked the mines of Potosi
and the other horrible bagnios of Spanish cruelty, he
put on the wretched garb of a miner, and fcd with
the blacks, worked with them, taught them, consoled
them, and raised their ignorant minds and hearts to
heaven. Forty-eight years were so devoted, and if
ever man deserved to be honoured by anticipation
with the crown of saintship, Peter Clever was that
man. I make this remark, ..becauee nothing has been
more common in Rome than to make the canoeisation
of a saint the pretext for political triumphs. You
will find much on this point in Count St. Priest's
olßcial despatches from the court of Rome at the time
when tival factions were promoting the canonisation
of the bkined Pelafox of Sampan," an enemy of
the Jesuits, who on their side brought forward a
saint in the person of the blessed benedict Joseph
Libre.

Mr. 13;;C- Platt and li;:.1u-silM9yrillls-an—i—oe.lt their
mats on the bench at tan o'clock this morning, to premed
with the trial of the chartists charged with a felonious
conspiracy.
JoAn Shaw, the person who wag convicted in the early
part of the session of sedition, was called to the bar.
Mr. Parry, bit counsel, said be understood that the pri-
soner had an application to make to their lordships, with
regard to the treatment he was to he subjected to in prison.
Shaw then said he supposed their lordships had miler' him,
to the bar for the porpoise( presoaneing sentence upon him
bat, before they did so, he had to request that their lord-
ships would order him to be treated as a first-clam gaiedensta-
cant, and to hays the use of writing materiels, as be had now
nothing to occupy his time. He was now treated as a felon,
and kept in solitary oonSnessent, and he hoped their lord-
ships would grant his application.
Mr. Parry called the attention of the court to the ease of
"the Queens. Barr sad others," who some time ago ware
omn:cted, before the recorder, of a conspiracy to digrand a
person of a large sum of money by false play at cards.
The recorder ',Mowed them to a very heavy imprisonment,
but allowed them tr be treated at first-elm misdemeanants.
He must admit that the present prisoner's offence nag a
serious one, bat, he would =store to say, not more serious
than the offence committed by the.. persons he had
referred to. _ _

Mr. Baron Platt said : No thanks ware doe to the coliceer
tot the country at large not now being in open rebellion.
The others who had been convicted of KINN= were sent to
the House of Carmelo°,

—i'l3-Atiornoy-iiiiiersi said that the prisoner was the
elts;rwan of the meeting in the Milton-street theatre, where
Beret delivered the seditious speech for which he had been
convicted.

_-Mr. 16-ope, the governor of Relegate, placed a copy of the
nitre of the pri.on in the hands of the learned judge, who
said he would panic them, and mouider upon the matter.
