The Opinion Nationale, however, is disposed to
accept the excuses offered by the pamphlet foe
subjecting the citizen. of the Eternal City to an
exceptional government. It observes that in Italy,
France, and England, there are men who, carrying
the logical consequences of a separation of the tem-
poral and spiritual powers to a too absolute extent,
do not understand that in politics it is often neces-
sary to make some concessions of principle, at the
risk of obtaining no amelioration whatever.
M. °earlier de Cassageac's journal, the Pays,
attests the authority of the pamphlet by its silent*.
The Journal dm Ham says that a new bill will
shortly be presented to the Council of State relative
to the pablication of law reports. It is probable
that the objections made on the occasion of certain
recent scandalous trials will be made the excuse for
imposing further restrictions on the prose, and bring-
ing judicial procedure nearer to that state of perfec-
tion of the middle ages, when its essence was
eecresy. It has been sufficiently established by the
controversy that has recently taken place on the sub-
ject, that no new law is necessary. The judges have
always the power of prohibiting the report of a
trial when they think fit, and the articles of the
UNieses and Pays complaining of the publicity of
the Lemoine and Chereau oases are in fact censures
upon the judicial beach.

There is a talk of a new ministerial circular rela-
tive to warnings.
The Bourse wee very bad. The reason given for
the considerable f►ll is that the project of abolishing
the admission fee is abandoned to the great disap-
pointment of the majority of the speculators, who
had confidently calculated upon it. It was
whispered, however, that the Pope hal already
protested against the pamphlet, and that he refute
to send a plenipotentiary to the Congress. The
Rente fell 65c. for cash and 30c. for aecount, closing
at 69fr. 95c. and 701 r. 10c. Mobilier fell llfr. 25c.
The Orleans railway fell 10fr. ; Northern, 6fr. 26c.;
Lyons, 3fr. 75c.; and the other lines about 2fr. 50c.
The prohibitive system is attacked by the INbati
in reference to two articles of French manufacture
which are stated to be seriously affected by its
enactments—printed cottons and tulles. For the
former to prosper, it merely requires to have the on-
stamped calico at a price not exceeding that ob-
tained in other countries; otherwise it cannot corn•
pate in foreign markets with the English, Swiss,
Prussian, or Belgian productions. The writer
observes:

Unfortunately for the French manufacturers of
printed cottons, the spinaers posse. a de facto mo-
nopoly of fabrication tensed by the tariff which pato-
tically excludes twist fit for the manufacture of calico. So
that, provided there ho an active demand to France for
twig; the cotton spinsters an absolute masters of the price,
and sell at what rate they please. In that way they make
brilliant profits, but they effectually prevent the production
of printed stuffs for exportation. At present this impudent
branch of manufacture cannot be worked as it ought, ea it
has not enough of calico, its first requirement. But the se.
called protectors of national labour are enchanted ; the moll
of their country is not polluted by contact with the calicoes
of perfidious Albion.
Just the same takes place with respect to French
tulles, which at present cannot be manufactured for
exportation. Some of the Calais houses, seeing that
the longer they delay the worse they would find
their position, have emigrated to Belgium and there
established their Pontiac. Here, then, obeereee
our contemporary, is an important branch of in-
dustry, the prosperity of which would be beyond
any doubt not only satisfactory but brilliant, if it
had permission to provide its raw material where it
pleased. But the pretended protective system ex-
ercises on it an influence similar to that which the
fatal revocation of the edict of Nantes had on the
aggregate of French manufactures. The Dlbats
thee goes on to say :
It is desirable that such facts should be pointed out to the
public sod the government. Can the protective system,
rejected by all Europe, remain in force among us in the face
of theme deplorable coneequences, and is there sot danger in
mainteining tt ? It is not inappropriate to remark that the
rarnatecture of printed cotton% of tulles, and of other mat.
