ROMR.—We have received despatches from oar
nt at Rome to the date of the 4th. The
rspe Mdesent to Rome an ordonnance dated Gaeta,
the 27th, declaring void all acts of the government,
and superseding the government and the chambers
by a state commission, consisting of Cardinal
Cutraoam,• Prince Roviano Prince Barberini,
Marquis Ricci, and General Zuccbi. Cardinal
Cestracani, to whom the ordonnance was ad-
dremed, immediately communicated it to the
Chamber of Representatives' the speaker of which
convoked it at midnight on the Sd. It remained in
session all night, and issued a proclamation in the
morning, declaring that the resseipt addressed to
Cardinal by the Pope was informal and
invalid, that it was coantersigntd by no responsible
person, and that a deputation of both houses should
be requested to wait on his Holiness, and request
his return to his dominions.
Some of the members of the State Commission thus
nominated, on receiving the intelligence, immediately
I left Rome for the frontier, and the others declined ac-
cepting the commission.
The Contemporanel of Rome states, that the Com-
' mandant of Gaeta would not at Sig receive the Pope,
so that his Holiness WU obliged to wait four hours for
L en answer from the Neapolitan government, at the
Hotel Cicerone, before he was conducted to the royal
palm.

very different from an amicable contract.
The Prussian people, like the whole German pool*
have an instinct of good faith. Yon have seen bo.,
in the late transactions at Berlin,. the people clugb
the side of right. Public opinion was not tasks&

attempted to prorogue it, and exile its menthe's,

pronounced sentence of condemnation on the elan;
the arbitrary enactment of the monarch. My edo
doubt is es to the manner in which this sentence was

Here, then, is the point at which the Freakhg
Assembly ought to interfere. One word from thg
body will suffice. Once more Destiny calls
" Commend, and you will be obeyed." It did si
know how to profit by the first opportunity—wm it

And now reaction has risen in giant bulk in thou

It is whispered that Von Gagern hu returned as
satisfied from Berlin. His visit has been an sitis
failure. This might have been foreseen from tie
manner in which the King of Freesia and the Pis
'Oust of Frankfort met at Cologne. The King coil
not forget his kingly character, and the president es
unwilling to forget that he is president of the fed
German parliament. Two each men are incompitAik
and at Frankfort all the world knows that M. Vi
Gagern failed to acquire at Potsdam as much ids

his hallucination about making the King of Prods
emperor of Germany. Who is to be emperor, hem
knows ; but this is certain that in a few weeks de
fate of Germany will be decided for a long time.
