The Iferaldo of Madrid, of the 17th, announces
that General Ortega, having left Madrid to exert his
influence in the elections of Aragon, the government
had given orders that he should be arrested. The
same journal states that the governor of the province
of Valladolid had been dismissed, for having declared
that he could not prevent the election of M. Alonzo,
author of the amendment on the ministerial bill fur
the settlement a the debt.

ROME, Arno.
So much has been said of late in England touching
the treatment of Jews by the papal government,
that you will doubtless be glad to know the exact
condition of the IsmeHash community in the city of
Rome under the present ecclesiastical mnnoe. You
are already aware that the Jews inhabit a narrow
and squalid quarter of the town termed the
Ghetto, which being too small for their num-
bers (about eight thousand souls) keeps them in
a painfully crowded state ; nor are they allowed to
dwell in any other part. They are strictly pro-
hibited front employing their fortunes in the acqui-
sition of landed or real property, and are forbidden
to exercise the nobler professions, such as physic,
&e.; and the most honourable member of the
Jewish community is denied that right which is
granted to the most abandoned of eatholics, namely,
the right of offering his testimony as valid in a civil
or criminal suit. With regard to the administration
of those affairs which touch the interests of the
whole Jewish community, persons are appointed to
the office not by the votes of the community itself,
but at thegoodideasure of the government, so that the
Jews, who are obliged to pay these officers, have not
even the satisfaction of seeing the administration
conducted in a satisfactory manner by men of their
own choice. Besides the ordinary taxes to which,
in common with the catholic inhabitants of the
Roman states, the Jews are subjected, they have
to pay an annual sum of 1,1100 dollars to the
Calecumeni, or converts from the Israelitish to
the Roman catholic religion, two or three of
whom are generally baptised at the baptistery
of St. John Lateran every Holy Saturday.
Another annual sum of 300 dollars is extracted from
the community for the benefit of the snore dale eon-
rerbte, a kind, of nunnery devoted to the use and in-
structiou of converts; so that the Jews arc obliged,
in fact, to give premiums to such of their brethren
as abandon their faith—a piece of oppression about
as unjust as the forcing them to attend, at stated
periods of the year, the sermons of a catholic
preacher, who labours to convert them, in no mea-
sured terms, and thunders in their unwilling ears the
eternal chastisement reserved for the " stiffinecked
generation !"
It is gratifying after such a list of hardships to be
able to add that the degrading act of homage an-
nually performed ut the beginning of Carnival by de-
legates of the Jewish community before the munici-
ality of ltome, and concluding with their dismissal
by a contemptuous kick of the toot on the part of the
senator, appears to have been definitively abolished
since the accession of Pius IX. to the throne.
1 Cardinal Lambruschini, prefect of the Congrega-
tion of Sacred Rites, has just published a Latin de-
cree, announcing the will of the Pontiff that the
15th of July, the festival of the Visitation of the
Blessed Virgin, should be henceforth for ever reli-
giously observed by all the nations of the world, with
double rites of the second class, on account of its
being the eventful day on which, in the words of the
document itself, "the yoke of those who occupied
the city was shaken off, and the temporal sovereignty
of the apostolic see restored, by the aid, advice, and
arms of noble nations and princes.'
One of the edifices which suffered most during the
siege of Rome was the ancient basilica of St. Pan-
cras, situated on the Juniculum outside the city walls.
By the active exertions of Father Ignatius, of St.
Philip Neri, the work of restoration has gone on so
rapidly, that on the 27th current, the day appointed
for the stations, the church, which the priests la-
ment had become a nest for republican dregs (from
the circumstance of its having been one of the prin-
cipal outposts of the defending forces) will be re-
opened to the public.

cause this news to be regarded with earnest attention.

It is announced that M. Guizot is about to enter conduits made, and mountains tunnelled where ne-
cessary, to divert the water from its natural channels.
In one instance a canal has been constructed nine
miles in length, part of which is tunnelled through
a mountain, and there arc numerous similar works of
smaller dimensions. Wherever the miners have
been successful in bringing water to their diggings,
they have realised abundantly from their washings.
There was an unusually,largequantity of earth thrown
up in the early part of the season, owing to the tine
weather, which enabled the miners to work more
constantly. There is no doubt that, had the country
been favoured with an average quantity of rain, the
produce of gold dust would have been larger than
in the previous winters. But great numbers of lected to rebuild the
