MRS. TROLLOPE'S NEW NOVEL.

people who were bound to obey—that the dictates of
the lawgiver should be pronounced in such a form as
to render them of easy comprehension and of easy
recollection. This was no less due to the sworn
interpreters and administrators of the law than to
the community in general. He thought that the
Government who neglected to provide a simple digest
of the law, more especially of the criminal law, was
guilty of a gross breach of duty towards its subjects,
and he could not rest contented while such negligence
could fairly be ascribed to him. He found that an
A immense quantity of matter must be waded through
by those who entered upon legal studies that
the published reports of cases in the different
courts filled more than five hundred vo-
lumes, while the statutes at large extended
over nearly forty thousand quarto pages : although the
five codes of NAPOLEON, containing a full and com-
plete exposition of the laws of France, had been com-
pressed into 750 duodecimo pages—less, in fact, than
the enactments passed for the parish of Marylebone
alone within the last half century. He accordingly
issued in 1833 the celebrated Commission for Amend-
ing and Digesting the Law, which, through the laud-
able decision of Sir JAMES GEAfIAM, and other
members of the PEEL Ministry, was continued, and
has now almost concluded its labours. In May,
1848, he brought forward a Bill enacting a criminal
code, defining all crimes and their punishments,
which he avowed his intention of speedily following
with another measure enacting a code of criminal

vented the inhabitants from opening their gates to the

French troops, 21Azziets alys—
" The number of foroiplera' who assisted in the de-
fence of Rome eas from 1,400 to 1500 men; from
1,400 to 1,500 men amorg4 a total of 14,000; for it is
well that Italy should knew that 14,000 men, a young
army without traditions, aid improvised under the
very fire of the enemy, held in check for two months
30,000 soldiers of France. You know all this, gentle-
men, or you could have known it, and therefore you
ought to have done so ; and nevertheless you shame-
lessly gave cut to the Assembly the number of
foreigners' as 20,300, as a proof that after all it
was not the Roman idea tlat you had endeavoured. to
stifle in blood; and upon this cipher of your own in.
vention depends the greater part of your argument.
Foreigners ! I entreat pardon of my country for having
inscribed the word, after you, upon my page. What !
Lombards, Tuscans, Italian:. foreigners at Rome ! And
it is by you, Frenchmen, by you who in re-establishing
the Pontifical throne, have been supported by Austrians
and Spaniards, that this reproach is made. A year ago
our provinces sent the elite of their youth to fight upon
the plains of Lombardy as toa convention of honour; but
I do not remember that Rade zky ever called them in his
proclamations foreigners. The absolute denial of Italian
nationality has been reserved for the nephew of him
who, at St. Helena, uttered these words:—' Unity of
manners, of language, of literature, show that Italy is des-
tined to form a single country.' "
The number of foreigners, properly so called, who
were fighting in the Roman ranks was only 300, viz.,
200 Poles, and the Foreign Legion of 100. The rest
were all Italians.
But it is a work of sup:rerogation to expose any
further the misrepresentations of men, who stand, as
stand the Ministers of the Trench Republic, self-con-
victed of falsehood. In the French Constituent As-
sembly M. ODILON BARROT solemnly declared on the
16th of April last—
" We are not going to Italy to impose a government,
neither that of the Republic nor any other
We do not wish to employ the forces of France to de-
fend in Rome one form of government or another. No ;
our intention is to be present at the events which may
eccur in the double interest of our own influence, and
of liberty, which may be jeopirdised.'
"The declaration of the French corps of occupation to
the President of Civita Vecchia, dated the 24th of
April, declared that the French Government would
respect the voice of the majority of the Roman popula-
tions . . . . and that it would never impose upon
them any form of government.'
"On the 26th General Oudinot repeated that the
object of the French was not to exercise any oppressing
influence, nor to impose any government upon the Ro-
, mans against their will."
And yet on the 7th of August M. DE FALLoux,
with a coolness that on any other occasion would have
been quite farcical, declared that from the commence-
ment the object of the expedition had been to restore
the PoPE and priestly government absolutely without
conditions ; that from the beginning of these trans-
actions-himself and his colleagues had deliberately lied
to the Assembly and to France, but that the lie was
so transparent that none could have been deceived by
it, and, perhaps, had the Assembly and France been
then so perfectly aware of the character of M. DE
Fannoux and his colleagues as they are at present,
none would have been deceived by it. With a
Ministry which boasts of its proficiency in the art
of falsehood, there can be no room for argu-
ment, they are at once put out of court, and
their assertions are nothing worth unless corroborated
by untainted evidence. It' is perfectly supererogatory,
therefore, for us to continue our work of refutation,
as every unsupported assertion of DE FALLOUX and
Co. must henceforth be considered by every man who
has any regard for truth as non avenue. We would,
however, commend to the especial meditation of M
DE FALLOUX and hiS colleagues the eloquent perora-
tion of the admirable letter of Mezzos :
" You are Ministers of France, gentlemen—l am
only an exile ; you have power, gold, armies and
multitudes of men dependent on your nod. I have
only consolation in a few affections, and in the breath
of heaven, which speaks to me from the Alps of my
country, and of which you, inexorable in persecution,
as are all those who fear, may yet deprive me. Yet I
would not exchange my fate with yours. I bear with
me in exile the calm inspired by a pure conscience.
I can fearlessly raise my eyes to meet those of other
men, without the dread of meeting any one who can
say to me, You have deliberately lied.' I have corn
bated, and will combat again, without pause as without
fear, wherever I may be, the wicked oppressors of my
country—falsehood, in hatever shape she may clothe
herself, and the powers which, like yours, rely upon
maintaining or reinstituting the reign of privilege, upon
corruption, upon blind force, and upon the negation of
the progress of the people ; but I have fought with loyal
arms; never have I sullied myself by calumny, or de-
gradd myself by using the word assassin against one
unknown to me, and who was. perhaps, better than
myself. God save you, gentlemen, from dying in exile,
because you have no such consciousness with which I
console yourselves."

Lord BROUGHAM has himself explained, in the
letter to which we have repeatedly alluded,
the manner in which this most important
Bill has been retarded by the inexplicable ne-
glect and apathy of the English Judges, who
should of all others be most anxious to aid in
carrying his Lordship's praiseworthy intentions into
execution, for they would thereby be spared much
trouble and vast responsibility. But although letters
were addressed by his Lordship, as Chairman of the
Select Committee to which the Bill had been referred,
the sessions of 1848 and 1849 were suffered to elapse
without a single response having been elicited from
any of these learned personages. It is said that
" silence gives consent." His Lordship, therefore,
reasonably enough conceives that " the Judges of
England are, generally speaking, satisfied with the
Digest, and have no corrections to offer which they
deem of sufficient importance to call for the consi-
deration of the Lords." •

" Rattle his hones over the stone--
He's only a pauper, whom nobody owns."
They occur, if we recollect rightly, in a poem about

Acting on this conclusion, no further time will be
lost in carrying the measure through both Houses;
and we may entertain a confident hope that the ses-

being made in the other measures that have been
promised, and that ere many years shall have elapsed
the nation will be in the enjoyment of that precious
blessing, " a complete body of written law, to be the

judges—the standard of the rights and duties of all."

The letter of Mazzitu, the Roman Triumvir, the
man who in power, as in adversity, as a ruler of his
native land, as well as an exile, has ever preserved
the character of being a man of perfect truth and
honesty, is one of the most important historical
documents that has ever appeared. It is a history of
the Roman Republic of 1849, and the simple relation
of the history of that Republic proves that if ever
there was in the world a Government which had a
right to say it was in the strictest sense of the word
a popular Government, because emanating from the
whole of the people it exercised power by the people,
exclusively for the benefit of the people, that Govern-
ment was the Government of the Roman Republic.
The enemies of the cause of liberty have over and
over again reiterated that the Roman Republic was
founded on the assassination of Count Rossi. In
the French Assembly, in the English Parliament,
this assertion has been repeated unue ad nauseam.
It was in vain that the falsehood was exposed, it was
again and again repeated, and repeated " wilfully,
knowingly, and for a purpose." The refutation of
this falsehood by AlAzztrir, in his letter to the French
Ministers, which appears in another column, is so
complete, that not even M. DE FALLOUX will
venture to repeat it for some time to come
at least. As is well observed by MAzziNi—
" The Republic inaugurated on the 9th of February
1849, has no occasion to exculpate itself from a deed
which occurred on the 16th of November, 1848, when
he princely party, the Moderates, the partisans of
Charles Albert, possessed the field, and drove away, or
condemn( d to absolute silence, the men of the Repub-
lican faith. No one in Italy accuses your revolutions of
having had their rise in assassination, because the Duke
of Berry fell by the dagger, and five or six attempts at
regicide succeeded each other in the space of two years in
Paris."

'HIE FRENCH REPUBLIC.

The Paris journals of yesterday have been received.
The Assemblee Nationale is mystifying the
whole capital, attracting attention to itself, and
driving Red Republicanism out of its wits, from sheer
vexation and bewilderment, by its revelations of even
the most secret meetings of the ultra members of the
Gauche and their partizans. Two or three Socialists
cannot collect together to decide upon such and such
a course, but INliat, lo ! the very next day every par-
ticular appears in the columns of the Assemblee
.Nationale—names, dates, resolutions, everything, with
the utmost particularity. Only the other day a
meeting was held by a chosen few, sworn to secrecy,
and there it was resolved that each should personally
call on the editor, and demand his authority for
stating certain facts and referring to certain names,
when the next morning a report, as if taken by a
short-hand writer, appeared in the paper, giving every
word that passed. The Ultras are almost beside
themselves with annoyance.
Meanwhile the Journal des Debats has at almost all
the " parties" in succession. True to the hatred of
M. BERTIN, senior, towards the EMPEROR, that
organ opposes the cause of the Imperialists with the
utmost virulence. It ridicules, moreover, the fantas-
tic hopes of the Legitimatists. And as to the Red
Republicans, it speaks of them, in its impression of
yesterday, in the following language :
" These fine fellows fling a whole nation into the
water, and then cry out 'Now, swim if you can! As to
ur, we shall concentrate in the delightful privacy of our
families the fetes of the glorious anniversary of 1792.'
And they talk of re-action! Truly, it becomes them to
talk of that! What are they, if not the most backward,
the most fossil of reactionists? Let us not forget that

Orleaniits ! One morning the Orleanist organ, as the
Debats is beginning to be considered, contains a vin-
dication of the policy of the ex-King Louis PHI-
LIPPE, from the pen of the ex-courtier M. CUVELLIER
FLEURY. Another time it gives insertiou to an
attack upon M. PAssY's system of finance, by M.
DuMoN—an attack as extravagantly bitter ss that
made by M. LACAVE LAPLANGE on the financial sys-
tem of M. GARNIER PAGES.

The Roman Republic was the orderly protest of the
whole Roman People against Anarchy—against
.k.narchy brought about by the acts of Pio Norio,
who, through treason or weakness it matters
not, deserted the post which he had
received a mission from Heaven (if his
own account of his position be true) to
guard—and, acting as chief Anarch instead of chief
preserver of order, fled—a coward shepherd, leaving
his flock to perish in the desert. But then we are told of
the great personal risk that Pio NoNo would have run
had he remained at bis post. We believe he would have
been safer, and we know he would have been more
independent, at Rome than at Gaeta ; but suppose he
had run personal risk. Did DENIS AFFRE shrink
from incurring personal risk in the execution of his
duty ? It would appear that the brave Pio Norio, here-
tofore Count MASTAI and a soldier, is not ambitious
of a commission in the Noble Army of Martyrs. In
consequence of the shameful desertion, of the coward
ffight of Pso NONO and the Cardinals,

on the morning of the 9th of February that the downfal
of the temporal power, and, as a consequence, the inau-
guration of the Republic, were proclaimed. By whom?
By the Constituent Assembly of the Roman States. In
what manner had that Assembly been elected? By
universal suffrage. Had there been—l speak not of
terror—but even any agitation, any influence illegally
exercised? No, all had taken place calmly, quietly
without corruption, without threats. Was the minority
imposing? Out of hundred and forty-four members
present eleven voices declared against the proclamation
of the Republic as inopportune; five against the aboli-
Lion of the temporal power. how many amongst those
whom you now stigmatise as foreigners, how many
Italians born out of the Roman States were then seated
upon the benches of the Assembly? Two—Garibaldi
and General Ferrara. I deceive myself—Garibaldi had
already set out for Rieti. It was not until some time later
that Salicei, Cernuschi, Cannonieri, Dail Ongaro, and my-
self were elected. In what manner was the double pro-
clamation received by the populations? Was there
through all the extent of the Roman territory a single
attempt at resistance, a single mark of dissent, a single
protestation in favour of the fallen power? No, not
one. A few carabiniers on the frontiers of Naples de-
serted, perhaps imagining themselves compromised by
the arrests that they had been obliged to make under
Gregory. And this was all. The towns and the country
saluted the Republic with a common joy. The old
fnunicipalities, elected under the Papal regime, sent in
their adhesion, since renewed by those elected by universal
suffrage on the 11th of March. Pius IX. had still some
personal friends; the Papal Government could not boast
of one. And later on, atter the 30th, when the Govern-
ment on the eve of the quadruple invasion was obliged
to concentrate its forces, and could therefore retain
only a moral influence in thel provinces—in the midst of
the financial ci Lis, and in spite of the efforts of some
few reactionaries, this, the conservative element of the
state, renewed again the testimony of a spontaneous ad-
hesion to the Republic. Bologna, Ancona, Perugia,
Civita Vecchia, Ferrara, Ascoli, Cesena, Fano, Faenza,
Forli, Fogliao, Macerata, Narni, Pesaro, Orvieto, Ra-
venna, Rieti, Vitet bo, Spoleto, Urbino, Terni; two hun-
dred and sixty-three municipalities sent addresses de
daring in the name of the populations that the abolition
of the temporal power and the existence of the Republic
formed henceforth a double condition of life for theßoman
States."

Seven communal schoolmasters in the department
of the Allier have been dismissEd by the Govern-
ment for having taken an active part in the return
of Socialist candidates at the last general elections.
The VICE-PRESIDENT of the Republic, accompanied
by the Ministers of Public Works and Commerce,

party are to return to-night to Paris, by the railway.
M. DE Fe LLoux.'s speedy removal to Versailles for

If this be not a popular Government, where is there
such a Government to be found ? If this Assembly
did not represent the will of the universal Roman
people, by what means can the will of any people be
ascertained ? If the French Ministers are so con-
vinced of the truth and justice of their cause, and of
the love of the Roman people for sacerdotal rule, let
them accept the challenge of MAZZINI, and, with-
drawing all foreign troops from the Roman territory,
leave the Roman people free to choose their own form
of government.

THI4: NORTHERN STATES.

AUSTRIA AND HUNGARY.

Accounts from Vienna are almost entirely engrossed
by descriptions of the ides and rejoicings in honour
of the conqueror of Lombardy. Among the most
recent of these it is mentioned that a deputation from
the commercial classes of the city of Prague presented
Field-Marshal Radetzky with a laurel wreath of
silver, accompanied with an earnest request that he
would honour the city of Prague with a visit.
The conferences still continue under the presi-
dency of the EMPEROR.
News from the seat of war is still very dubious
and confused. Rumours of all kinds continued to be
afloat as to the position of affairs at Comorn ; one
report being to the effect that two officers with flags
of truce had gone from that fortress on the 16th inst.
to the camp of NUGEAT at Acs. ThiS rumour, how-
ever, was given upon no credible authority.
An insurrectionary movement appears to have been
attempted in Servia, but, according to the Agram
Gazette, had been rapidly suppressed.
From llermannstadt we learn that on the 14th
Field-Marshal Lieutenant Count CLAM-GALLAS is-
sued an address of thanks to the National Guards of
Scl.iissburg, and dismissed them to their homes
in Transylvania, their services being no longer
required.
The journals of Pesth announce that the shootings
and hangings of the different prisoners of war had
now changed into imprisonments with-hard labour.
The state of siege is about to be removed from
Vienna.

VIENNA, SEPT. 19.—Accounts from Raab stato
that the whole of that neighbourhood is filled with the
various bodies of troops who are to form the besieging
army at Comorn.

Private letters state that two other plenipotentiaries,
with a flag of truce from the fortress, arrived at
General NUGENT'S camp on the eve of the day before
yesterday.
The Wanduer says the state of siege of Vienna
and the suburbs is to he raised on the 4th of next
month. The Wiener Zeitung of the 19th contains
the appointment of Field-Marshal VON HESS as Chief
of the General Quarter. Master's Staff of the Royal
Imperial army. The same paper contains a provi-
sional regulation fur the formation of the panel for the
censorship of the press.
The Polytechnic School at Vienna is to be re-
opened on the Ist October.
The Vienna Zeitung says that the report of the
arrest of BEM by by the Russian troops has not been
confirmed. The Wanduer says that we learn that
Russia has offered to contribute a considerable part
of the proposed loan of sixty millions.
According to an inspection of the besieging corps
of Comorn, it appears that General NUGENT com-
menced his offensive movements towards the Sandberg
and the tete de pont, on the 15th.
With regard to the fate of Woywodina, the Wan-
deer says it will not receive the territorial extension
that was projected at Agram and Karlowitz.
It is said that the Ba-Franzens Kenai is to form
its northern boundary in the Backa. The fact that
Tesmesvar has been appointed the seat of a Stadtholder
seems to indicate that the Banat, the Canaan of the
Woywodina project, will form a distinct domain of
his crown. Commissioner MARTONFFY assures us
that the Governor of the Bank has already been ap-
pointed.
His Royal Highness Archduke ALBRECHT arrived
with his suite in Vienna at seven o'clock in the
morning of the 19th.
The besieging works of the Austrians against the
fortress of Comorn were at the date of the last ad
vices proceeding rapidly. The Austrians intended, it
was said, to try balloons, as at Venice.
On the 14th a public sale of a portion of the effects
of KOSSUTH took place at Pesth, but the attendance
of the public was less numerous than had been ex-
pected. The effects of Count CASIMIR BATIIYANY
and others were also to be offered for sale.

During the sittings of the Deputies at Turin, on
the 18th, it wrs resolved that the budget for thsl year
1849 should be primed.
An allowance of 10 or 15 livres a day for each re-
presentative was spoken of r.s probable.
After visiting his mother and children at Nice, it is
now generally believed that GARIBALDI will return to
Genoa.

The War Minister, General BAVA, has issued an
order of the day to the army, in which he says the
unmerited hard fortune of war had not diminished the
high respect universally felt for the Sardinian army,
but had proved the necessity for much reform.
The Statute of Florence publishes the following
letter, dated Rome, 15th inst. :—" DE CORCELLES
has not yet arrived, but he is every moment expected.
Gen. ROSTOLAN, in consequence of orders received
from Paris, made great efforts yesterday to oblige the
three Cardinals to publish the letter of the PRESIDENT
of the Republic. Their Eminences resisted as long as
they could, but were at last forced to promise that
the letter should appear in the Osservatore _Romano.
By this means they gained a respite; but
ROSTOLAN, not seeing the letter published
to-day, has returned to the charge and been an-
swered that the letter should be published this very
day. Still their Eminences nourish some hopes of
getting out of the dilemma, and of DE CORCELLES
consenting to take the non-execution of the order
upon his own responsibility. The conflict between
the French and Pontifical authorities continues."
The Giornale di Roma of the 14th publishes the
official returns of the wounded who entered the

ARRIVAL OF THE CALEDONIA.
(BY ELECTRIC TELEGRAPH.)
LIVERPOOL, TUESDAY.—The Royal Mail steam-
ship Caledonia has just arrived in our river, and
brings one week's later advices from the United
States, the Canadas, and the other British North
American possessions.
The Caledonia left Boston on the 12th instant, and
made a short call at Halifax, to receive mails and
passengers, of the latter of which she has brought
over a large number.
We have by this arrival intelligence of the arrival
out of the Niagara at New York, and of the Europa
(which tailed hence on the Ist instant) at Halifax, on
her way to Boston.
The news is not of much importance. The Great
Western arrived at New York on the Bth instant,
having left Bermuda on the sth.
The Earl of Elgin has left Montreal for Niagara.
American politics are just now rather flat, and
were expected to continue so until the approaching
election. That for Michigen, in November (for a
senator of which state General Cass proposes him-
self), promises to be the most interesting. The
free-soilers and whigs will pull better together here,
it is expected, than in other parts of the Union, and,
it is possible, may carry their candidate for governor,
Mr. Littlejohn. The citizens of the state have lat-
terly taken a liberal view of the Wilmot proviso,
which they are now inclined to support.
'The cholera has so far abated that in the majority
of places the returns were not published. It has
prevailed, however, to some extent during the week
in Boston, Albany, 'Washington, &c. in Birming-
ham, a suburb of Pittsburg, the mortality during the
visit of the disease had been felt most severely by the
German population, the deaths being at least 90 per
cent. amongst them. In New York it may be said
to have almost ceased.
Mass conventions of both sections of the democracy
have been, or will be held shortly in Monroe, Onon-
daga, Washington, Westchester, and other places, to
effect a union of organisation for the fall campaign.
A convention of the coloured inhabitants of Con-
necticut had been held on the 12th instant, to con-
sider their political condition. They prefer having
the right of suffrage to their present exemption from
suffrage.
A national convention is to be held in St. Louis
on the 15th of October, to consider the erection of a
railroad and electric telegraph to the Pacific. Dele-
gates are expected from every state and territory in
the Union.
The reports from the cotton districts are, we regret
to say, still more unfavourable than any before received
