ROME.

The ultminoutane journal, the Union, gives
the words used by the Pope a few days ago at
a religious ceremony. "In these times of con-
fusion and disorder," said the Holy Father, " it is
not unfrequent to see Christians, catholics, who
always have upon their lips—a middle course,
conciliation ; compromise. Well, I do not
hesitate to declare that these MCI& are in
error, and I do not regard them as the least
dangerous enemies of the church. Be firm,
then ; no conciliation, nu compromise, with impious
men. I commend these words to all catholics, but
specially to the members of the clergy who may be
iu danger of being seduced by perverse doc-
trines contrary to the just interests of this Holy
Sue sod of the church."

The Dibuts of to-day bas a letter from Turin,
dated the 2nd, iu which we read, " I can give you
the positive lUDIUMIICAI that the relations of Baron
Rieaeuli with the court of the Tuileries are as satis-
factory an possible. I can also tell you that the
French government has asked neither directly nor
indirectly the least cession of territory. The
delay iu the settlement of the Roman question is
occasioned by considerations of quite another cha-
racter."

THE RECEPTION OF PRINCE CARIGNAN
AT NAPLES.

(I,IOY OCR OWN

;NAPI,II,..JAy: 15..

I could give you only some ieivdetaile Of the
reception reception of Prince Cerignan in my Saturday's
letter ; but it was so decided a success that I must
return to it. All Naples is talking of the new
lieutenant, and augurs favourably from hia appear-
ance and manner. His royal highness is a man of
few words, but there is a bonhomie about him
which is taking ; he has a pleasant smile, too, and
then the Neapolitans have found out that he is
"so like the late Count of Syracuse," the idol of
all the lower daisies. The Count, as you know,
was the brother-in-law of the Prince, and this more
than fancied resemblance is the more singular for
that reason. But let me give you a little history
of the entry of the Prince ; how our ships were the
first to blase away as soon as the royal standard
hove in view ; and how their salute was taken up
as soon as the royal steamer entered the port, and
how a thousand flags decorated the vessels,
native and foreign' in the offing and in the port, I
have already told you. Count Farini was in waiting
for the Prince, and together they drove off to the
palace, amidst a partial shower of bouquets.
On the line of road was assembled a vast crowd of
people, who shouted their " vivas" with voice
enough, at least, whilst a portion of each of the
twelve battalions of National Guards, a very fine
new regiment of Marines, and two battalions of
Pietimontese troops, were on duty near and around
the palace. Soon after his arrival the Prince made
his appearance on the balcony, which overlooks the
square of San Francesco Paolo, and which was
crowded with curious spectators, who had
come out to see their new Governor. It appears but
a short time since that I saw Ferdinand standing in
the same spot, and holding out his infant child to re-
wive the benediction of a saint whose gaily deco-
rated wooden image was being carried in procession
below, followed by many of the ignorant and ser-
vile nobility who are now scattered about Europe.
It was a pleasant contrast to see the Lieutenant of
the constitutional King looking down on a free
people, and passing in review the best defenders of
their liberties, the National Guard. The Prince was
evidently much pleased with their bearing, and
watched their manwuvres with the greatest interest.
Twice he made his appearance on the balcony,
talking familiarly with those around him, and when
he left everyone was loud in his praises. His royal
highness, therefore, enters on the duties of his
government under the best auspices, and every well-
wisher to the Italian cause must pray that he may
succeed in restoring order and good feeling.

tion of the war to a successful termination.

The report of the Secretary of the Treasury will
not be completed for several days. The preparation
of the details of this report has required a great
deal of labour and careful attention. Mr. Chase
has not yet prepared any portion of the report re-
lating to the public policy of the government.
It has been intimated that the Secretary of the
Treasury and the President would recommend the
establishment of a new fiscal agent in the nature
of a national bank ; but iu view of the aid ren-
dered by the banks in the first one hundred and
fifty millions of the new national loan, it is not
probable that any proposition will be made to set
up • government institution that will be oppres-
sive to them.

It in stated upon reliable authority that the
estimates of the requirements of the government
during the next fiscal year will make it necessary to
call for appropriations amounting to one thousand
and sixty minion dollars (160 millions I).
A Washington despatch to the Evensng Post of

of the emancipation of all slaves belonging to rebels in aims
against the government. Rumours of this recommendation

of Mr. Cameron have been ia circulation here fur •
day or two, and are fully confirmed by a state-
ment made last evening by the secretary himself.
It is also true that Secretary Chase favours an increase of
duties on sugars, iron, woollens, and some other articles.
He will set forth the mums for these moommendatioas

in his forthcoming report.

result, so far as it has been attained, of this great
experiment, is certain, and that opinion is most fa-
vourable, we might almost say, enthusiastic. The
national importance of this event, unexciting as it
appears in the narration, it is impossible to over-
rate. It is the inauguration, not merely of a
change in a branch of warlike power in which
England has won and held pre-eminence, but of
a naval revolution, of which the future has the
secret.

in the official Gazette in the same manner as when
Holland recognised the present Emperor of the
French.

The Minister further said : "If, in the speech
from the throne, the King was silent on this point,
it was only because he wished, in case of difference
of opinion, to avoid wounding the susceptibilities

LISBON, Bert 17.
The marriage of the Princess Antonia of Portugal
with Prince Leopold of llohenzollern Sigmaringen
was celebrated on the 12th inst., with great pomp
and ceremony. The nuptial service took place in
the Chapel Royal, where there was a family banquet
in the evening. On the 17th inst. the Prince and
Princess will depart for Germany on board the cor-
vette Bartholomew Diaz. It is said that the Infante
Dom John will also make the voyage, and return
on board the corvette.

The French steamers from S. Nazaire are placed
in quarantine in Lisbon on account of the preva-
lence of yellow fever in that port.
It is considered very probable that there will
shortly be a reconstruction of the ministry. The
measures recently adopted by Signor Avila re-
specting the stamping of bills, receipts, and other
documents, have caused the greatest confusion and
the highest dissatisfaction.

A rumour is prevalent that the government will
shortly open the ports for the admission of foreign
grain, the crop this year being decidedly scanty.
The heat of the weather has much abated, and
the grapes have already been gathered in many
districts, the result being much more satisfactory
than last year.

THE REACTIONARY DISEMBARKATION

IN CALABRIA.

Late news from Naples mentioned the disembark-
ation of a body of 100 reactionary volunteers upon
the coast of Calabria. These persons, who are stated
to have been surrounded by the troops and the
National Guard, are composed, according to the
de France, of Spaniards, commanded by
General Borghhae. The Gm:44k announces, in a
triumphant tone, that this band of 103 Spaniards
is but the advanced guard of other expeditions
which will be commanded by Neapolitan generals
and emigrant nobles. It seems convinced that with
the aid of these reinforcements Chiavone will re-
' conquer the kingdom of Naples, and replace
Francis 11. on his throne. Happily for Italy (says
the Debuta of to-day), this is not the first time that
this journal has announced with equal confidence
the triumph of the Neapolitan Vendee. We will
wait a few days and see if events justify its pre-
dictions.

customs, Canton.

The superintendent is hereby informed, that on the 11th
day of the 9th moon (24th October), the prinoe signed and
sealed a convention with the English [or with the British
government] continuing and extending [the treaty of 18581
The 3rd article of thin lays down that [here foIIOVP, the
text of the article in extenso]. The French, however, it
appears, have during the pest year been paid 333,333 teem
~,Id, out of the Canton customs revenue. The same rules
being in all cams applicable to the English as to the French,
the proper course no doubt will be to a like SUM
out of the same revenues, to the former. It is at the
same time expedient to apprise the commissioner that, es
by the convention this sum will become due on the 20th of
the 10th ninon ( ), he will be expected to provide the
whole of it out of the current revenuer of the customs, de.
ducting from it the amount of whatever sums dial' have
been advanced by the British government towards the con-
struction of the British factory site at &ammo (1).
A despatch to the above effect is being written to Ism

duty [of the prince] to adder:ea these instructions to the an.

LATEST INTELLIGENCE.

THE FRENCH TROOPS IN SYRIA.

We read in the New Prearian Gazette of the 12th :

" We learn from a good source that the corps
d'occupation in Syria will be increased by a portion
of the French troops returning from China. In
spite of the efforts of England it is not at all pro-
bable that the French army will leave Syria in the
month of March—a step, indeed, which cannot be
expected, for no one can wish to expose the Chris-
tians to being immediately massacred by the
Druses."
