MID TIM PORTION OCCUPATION

OF ZONE.

Garibaldi's fall at Aspromonte led to the evacua-
tion of Rome by the French garrison, and his arrest at
Sinelunge, the Times argues, ought equally to decide the
expulsion of Zorrives and other foreign hirelings. Unless
the September convention is interpreted to mean the
placing of the Papal government face to face with its sub-
jects, that compact was a mockery and a snare on the part
of the French government, and on that of the advisers of
King Victor Emmanuel a base dereliction of duty. The
work which they prevented Garibaldi from accom-
plishing devolves on the Italian government, and if the
latter is equal to its mission many months, or perhaps
weeks, will not pars before we see its real purpose in inter-
fering with Garibaldi's movements.

The Daily New is far from suspecting the French go-
vernment of meditating a second occupation of Rome.
The time is put when it could afford to commit such an-
other blunder as that. Having once delivered itself from
a politico so false and inconsistent am that which it occu-
pied at Rome for seventeen years, it will hardlybe induced,
even by such an htimate enemy as Bishop Dupsnloup, to
plunge for an Ndefinite period into the same labyrinth
again. And if not France, assuredly there is no other
European Power that would presume to step I tween
Italy and Rome. Who can imagine a Spanish or an Aus-
trian intervention in ? France was never more con-
turned than now to conciliate the goodwill of Italy.

The Telegraph thinks it by no means certain that Gar'.
baldrs arrest will prevent the revolutionary party from
rising in Rome. tinder • government so imbecile, o
corrupt, and so feeble as that of the Holy Bee, • handful
of resolute men might suffice to raise the standard of revolt
within the walls of the Papal city ; and if the movement
were attended with any species of succees, Italy would not
remain an indifferent spectator.

nil Star believes that the movement which has just
taken place was arranged within u well as without the
walla of Items, sad that it was a mistake in the strategy of
revolution which assigned the initiative to those on the
outside. The result is a painful and humiliating one.

PROFI33IONAL NtllllllBll3.

Several of oar contemporaries refer th;s mo: Jim to the
oireumetances disclosed at the Tottenham inquest. The
Post recalls the case of the woman Winsor, and expresses
the belief that women of her stamp, and cat.yin; on busi
nese in her prodse way, are neither few nor far betimes.
That priests retreat kept by persons of no doubtful
said parities exist in plenty has been proved to de-
monstration, sad the Port does not see why professional
numerics—to call them by that inoffendve name—for
infanta and young children should be allowed to remain
under management less responsible than the law concedes
to private asylums for the insane.

Without adding a syllable to the verdict of the jury in
the cue of Mrs. Jagger's institution, the Standard says,
that while it throws an extraordinary light upon a system
existing among us, it reveals a still greeter breadth of
shadow behind which dramas may be going forward of the
strangest nature. With no appetite for public exposures
the Standard disapproves of the concealment of the name
of the mother, as it believe. that where suspicion. soserious
ere possible the history of the affair should be told to the
very last letter.

The Telegraph inclines to think that when there Is an
extensive connexion among adulterers and adulteresses it
does really pay to keep the " inoumbranom " living, and
that the fatalities of the establishment are much and
truly deplored by its oonducrtmas. But accidents must of
necessity occur very frequently, because a child has a poor
chases of living, away from its mother's bread Mrs.
Jagger does not appear to have been much to blame for
the child's death. But those unhappy persona who give
top the secret of their sin to child-farmers incur a peril
which hoop over them eternally. They are at the mercy
of those whose very profession is a scandal, and whose
sense of honour is not likely therefore to be 'Moog. At a
whisper the reputation of the erring can be shattered ;
and they may be celled upon to buy off the fatal whisper
till they are beak rapt of means and hagprd with fear
and remorse. I

Some experiments took place at Eihoebetinees
yesterday. The American 450-pounder wee fired with
1001 b. of AMMER •anon powder against the 8-irk
target with the Wanier basking. In two iastaame it
mused •ompl•t•ly through at a range of 70 ymila. The
English 9-inch gun, fired obliquely at the wee target,
gave excellent results.
