I 2 IJ,iTRAMOiTANA'DREAMS. 7

A correspondent of the Time: writes from Cvita Vec-
chia; reporting from a conversation the hopes of the
Ultramontanes as to the result of a crusade against all
the enemies of the Pope-:--

" I travelled to this place with a sensible person, who
looks upon the Pope's cause as far less hopeless than
yesterday's journals and despatches seemed- to make-
it. The. Pope,' he said, has only the people:
and governments against him ; but the Church
throughout the world is either for him or is
nought. Never since Rome was the seat of a Coun-
cil have there been so many bishops and prelates-
of all ranks assembled at the foot of the Seven Hills.
Only look at the strangers' list. See among the arrivals-
every day at every hotel Sa Grandeur Bishop Ullathorne,
his Greatness the Bishop of Birmingham, &c. The
whole of your English hierarchy is here ; why all
these Grandeurs (I wonder what makes them affect
such titles) gather together at Rome in the carnival-
season I only wish somebody would kindly tell me_
As there are English, so you may reckon French.
and German monsignors by the score. " Rain is-
imminent," says the Italian proverb, " and foxes,
lay their heads together." I have heard reports,
silly talk, I have no doubt, of a great Ultramontane-
crusade in, behalf of the Papacy. The web spreads,
all over France and Germany ; but the main threads are
being woven here, of course, and these English priests,
naturally more earnest and active, more restless and
venturous, more needy and aspiring, than our flabby.
Italian voluptuaries, are the very leaven of the contem-
plated-movement. A revolution in France is no impos—
sible occurrence, and in the chaos and distraction of all -
parties even .so contemptible a faction as that of the
Legitimists might be made the staff on which Ultramon-

of the Bourbons among his servants here. The Jesuits
are coups d'eglise as well as coups d'etat ; and even the
watchman who had as many eyes as the peacock's tail
was caught napping at his post.'
" Take the above for what it is, mere railway-caniage
-
tete-a-tete talk between trusting friends. There is no
doubt but Ultramontanism is very busy at Rome,- and-
straining every nerve throughout the Roman Catholic-
world ; but, however unscrupulous in its schemes and
in the choice of its means, I doubt very much its ability. -
to do any serious mischief, nor am I moved by the vain
talk abolit a -Papal crusade, to which Austria would
lend her shattered arm. Many of the lay Catholics in
every country, and in England especially, as you know,
are drawing a very distinct line between their allegiance
to the Pontiff and their duty to the King of Rome. Any
revolutionary or even worse scheme on the part of a
few Jesuit fanatics would find not only these honour-
able men indifferent, but strongly and indignantly hos-
tile. Unquestionably despair is a bad counsellor, and
many of the priests are now so exasperated as to be
easily led into temptation ; but they are far more
shrewd than even violent, and they know that
this is neither the age of Cadoual nor of Ravaillac.
A few of the English and especially the Irish
shavelings here are to be seen fidgeting and fussing
about to an intolerable extent, there is no doubt; but
I believe they are only striving, and with indifferent
success, to stir up the torpid and indolent zeal
of the Romans. They raise subscriptions, solicit alms,.
carry news; they talk very big about the men and money
which are to come from the British Isles, about the clash
of parties in France, about the unweary perseverance of
Austria. They lay great stress on the. Encyclic, or Bull,.
which, I believe, it is asserted on good authority, the
Pope is to issue in a few days, hurling curses and
anathemas against Farini, Garibaldi, Piedmont, Ricasolip
and all his enemies, big or small. Further than mere
talk and a puny show of Vatican firem orks I do not
believe they will venture, nevertheless. Rome, as a
political faction, never had any real power. As to-
schemes of a darker nature, I am not willing to lay
them to the charge even of the Jesuits till I have
irrefragable proofs of their real existence."

The Entr'acte states that in the budget of 1860 the
subventions to the imperial theatres and the Conserva-
toire de Musique are set down at 1,705,000 f.; indemni-
ties or assistance to artistes, dramatic authors, composers,_
and their widows, 137,000 f.; encouragements and sub-
scriptions, 200,000 f.
ITALY AND ENGLAND.—The following is an extract
from a private letter, written on the 18th instant by an
Italian statesman, who holds it high rank in the Coun-
cils of Piedmont : " 1 humbly thank heaven that an era
of justice between Rations is beginning. Italy will
always bless England, which, through the organ of her
press, has made her voice" heard in consistent defence of
the rights of this country, and has fixed an indelible
brand on her violators and oppressors. Having escaped
the hands of Austria, Italy must now belong wholly to
herself,' and this result can be secured only by the an-
nexation of Central Italy to Sardinia."
HOLLOWAY'S OINTMENT AND PlLLS.—Serefula, or
morbid deposits in the lungs, joints, and tissues. It
has been contended that this disease is incurable,
though there are means of mitigating it. This is no
longer true. The discovery of Holloway's ointment
and pills have rendered this disease a less formidable:--'
enemy. It has been incontestibly- proved that in
scrofulous cases they have effected thousands of cures.
These medicines are composed of vegetable substances
unmixed with deleterious substances. Their action is
mild and gentle, and yet they produce effects more
remarkable, and more decidedly beneficial, than the
most powerful medicines yet known.
ANOTHER ELOPEMENT.—We (Halifax Guardian)
noticed last week the absconding of Mr. R Redfearn,
coal manager of the Leeds, Bradford, and Halifax
Railway Company, at the Halifax station ; and that, on
investigation, his accounts had not been found to any
great extent in arrear. Circumstances have since trans-
pired which led to the belief that, although a married
man, he had a companion in his flight, in the shape of
a fair but frail damsel, who has of late become notorious
in Halifax and Manchester, and who has herself"
left behind her a little (illegitimate) child. The
story of his companion is one of extraordinary'
audacity. Seduced, as she alleged; by a manufacturer,
she spent a portion of £lOO (which he paid to
her to secure her silence) in an expensive entertainment
to her many male friends.- Having run into debt at
Halifax, she next made her appearance at Manchester,-
where her fradulent practices came under the cognisance
of the police. On her return to Halifax she was taken,
in hand by Redfearn, under the avowal of an intention
of reformation ; but now it appears that her evil corn-
munkmtion has been all potent, and poor Mrs. Redfearn_
is left to lament, in sad distress, a ruined home and
blasted prospects. Either„boweVer, from the hastiness:
of his rash flight, or from some qualms of
.c
We learn that £5O wilk
pany as he might have been.
Redfearn has not been so dishonest to the raigaycom..:
cover all deficiencies.
