PARIS, WiDIIISBDAY EVINDIO.

The Patric contains the following paragraph on
the subject of General Lamoriciere's departure for
Rome:

France, out of her devotedness to the Holy Bee, has oon-
stantly advised the government of the States of the Church
to endow the country with reforms and institutions calcu-
lated to content the populations, and to organise a military
force sufficient to enable it to dispense with a foreign occu-
pation, and to allow Rome to live of its own life like other
Italian states. In this view the imperial government has
assisted the court of Rome with disinterested counsels, has
supplied it with documents WO necemary for the organise-
tMn of its army, and has authorised superior officers of the
French army of occupation to take part in the la-
bours of commiuloits appointed to examine various
questions relative to this organiastion. A short
time ago the Roman government, as it is mid, offered
General de Lemoricifre the command and direction of the
military forces of the Pontifical States. The general has just
left for Belgium. He will ultimately proceed to Borne in
order to judge for himself of the state of things. If, acting
on his own responsibility, he should think fit to accept the
offer made, he will then ask from his government the permis-
sion withoutwhich no French man who desires to preserve his
nationality can take service under a foreign government,
and then it will become neoessary to refer to the rules
applicable in such aims with regard to states with which
France keep. up official relations.

The Opinion, Nationak, writing before it oould
have seen the above article, but referring to the
rumour as given in the Danis, Pays, and other
journals, says:
We cannot bring ourselves to believe this news. General
de Lamoriciare's is one of the must brilliant and honoured
names of our old African army. How is it possible that he
should de oagett de our,. bury his popularity in the ranks of
a ridiculous army and in the service of a power which is
the vassal of Austria and hostile to the independence of
Italy. We regret, for the sake of the honourable general,
that this news should have been accredit:l for a single
instant.
