ROME.

The Gazetta di Roma of the 14th contains the fol'
lowing additional proclamation of Pius IX. to the
people of Rome :

" PROCLAMATION.
" Romans, and as many as are sons and subjects of
the Pontiff, hearken once more unto the voice of a fathern,
who tenderly loves you, and who is desirous of veil!,
you beloved and esteemed by the whole world. 10w
is the seat of religion—where its ministers, who, under
various forms, constitute that admirable variety whi".„
adorns the Church of Jesus Christ, have always found is
place. We invite and enjoin you all to respect religie°'
and never to provoke the terrible anathema at an indiga.
nant God, who would assuredly fulminate His enere
vengeance against the assailants of his anointed. AY°l
a scandal by which the whole world would be astounded.
and the greatest portion of our subjects filled with grit,'
and affliction. Spare the last drop of the cup of bitter
ness which the Pontiff has already been compelled t"I
taste, in consequence of the occurrences of a similar eka-
racter which have happened elsewhere. For rememter
that, if amongst the men who, in what institution
soever, belong to the Church of God, there should 11
found any who, by their misconduct, merit distrust and
contempt, the channel is always open to legal re:
monstrances and representations, which, when they
are just, we, as Supreme Pontiff, shall always ue
ready to receive and to act upon. We are Per:
suaded that these our words will suffice to convert
to the right way all those (we hope they are few)
who may have formed any nefarious design, the exec"'
tion of which, whilst it would deeply wound our Inv
ternal heart, would call down upon their heads the iticir
went which God reserves for the punishment of the
ungrateful ! And if these our expectations should no'
fortunately fail to recal our erring subjects to the right
path, we intend to test the fidelity of the Civic Guard,
and all the forces destined by us for the maintenance
of public order. We are filled with confidence when
we witness the good effect of these our arrangements,
and behold the agitation of the public mind everywhere
yielding to tranquillity, and those practical sentiments
of religion which ought to be professed by a nation pi.:
eminently Catholic, and which other nations have a right
to regard as a model.
" We will not embitter our soul—we will not distre"
the hearts of good men by anticipating the resolutions
which we should be compelled to adopt in order to avert
the dreadful chastisements with which God is accus-
tomed to recall nations from the errors of their ways
we rather cherish a hope that the apostolic benedicti
which we freely scatter on all will banish every fatal
pressage.

SOUTHWARK.—(THIS DAY-)
Richard Best was charged with creating a disturbance
:it the Victoria Theatre, and assaulting the police.
It appeared that on the preceding night, during the
performance, the defendant, who occupied a seat in the
boxes, caused considerable annoyance to the audience
by his extraordinary conduct. A shrill sound Ng"
heard to proceed from the spot where he sat, and it
was first supposed that he made it himself, but upon
being watched it was discovered that he had
a large monkey concealed underneath his
coat, which ho pinched until lie made it squeak
in the most discordant manner. A gentleman
requested the defendant to desist, but he refused, and
after an angry altercation on the subject struck the
former, The police were now called in, when the de-
fwtelant refused to stir, and the monkey, on finding
struggle take place between his owner and the police-
man commenced squeaking out more lustily than ever,
and continued the uproar until he and his master were
taken to the station-house, the latter resisting moat
violently, and assaulting a policeman.
The defendant complained that his view of the pro-
ceedings on the stage was interrupted by a gentleman
who stood before him, and that an altercation having
taken place, the monkey which be was taking home
began to make a noise, which he would have silenced,
had he not encountered such opposition from the police.
Mr. SECKER said the defendant's conduct was highly
reprehensible in taking a monkey to a public theatre,
and that he should fine him 20s. for the assault on the
policeman.

We earnestly recommend the attention of the public
to a little volume put out this morning by Bentley,
" Louis Blanc, on the Working Classes, with a Refuta-
tion of his Destructive Plan." This volume cannot ba
too widely disseminated at this moment, to dispel the
mischievous tendency of the plan of this member of the
Provisional Government of France, and disabuse the
English people of the wild notions of our neighbours,
which only require to bo submitted to the sober common
sense of our countrymen to prove their hollowness and
fallacy. The volume is sold for 45., and should be read
by every English artisan who wishes to be well informed
on a subject so important to himself and to society ge-
nerally.
