piegne.

The Patrie of this evening publishes an article
signed by M. Dreolle, which says :--" We believe
that the statu quo of the September Convention
having been maintained, the cabinet of the Tuile-
ries, is about to call the attention of the Great
Powers to the recent events in the Roman States,
and to seek, by means of a conference, the means
of averting the recurrence of a crisis which might
so profoundly disturb the tranquillity of Europe.
All the Powers are interested in the discovery of a
solution which, while satisfying the religious
interests represented by the Pontifical govern-
ment, should offer at the same time guarantees
against political eventualities calculated to com-
promise the European equilibrium."

lishment of the same postal rates as in North Ger-
