THE FRENCH IN ROME.

The Pope has communicated "confidentially" to the
Austrian Government his views of the French occupa-
tion of Rome; and the Pilote de Londres, a French jour-
nal, published in London and edited by the daughter
of Madame Tallien, has published the text of that
document. Where the child of la Princesse de Chi-
may could have obtained this document is not stated;
but it bears about it the evidence of authenticity. The
Pope places his acceptance of the French garrison in Rome,
therefore, on the ground of an " imperious necessity;"
speaks of the future as an abyss into which he cannot
look without a feeling of horror, on whichever side
it may be viewed; and proposes the substitution without
delay of an Austrian corps for the French in his capital.
" It will be requisite," observes the writer, " that before
the approach of the fatal day, imposing bodies of Aus-
trian troops shall suddenly advance from two sides on
Rome, menacing the French garrison, and at the same
time cutting off their retreat from Civita Vecchia." In
conclusion, the Holy Father, or his interpreter, demands,
in rather an insolent key, why the British Government
has not expelled the Italian refugees—more particularly
the Italian committee, now, he says, sitting in London.
How the French nation will relish the gratitude of the
Pope for replacing him on his " seven hills," remains to
be seen; but as regards Great Britain, there is no doubt
that the Pope will " take nothing by his motion."
There is a curious admission in one part of this docu-
ment which goes expressly to say, that " The great ma-
jority of the Roman people is radically corrupted (that
is, anti-Papal, we presume) and incapable (query
?) of rendering to his own government the least
support." Truly, this is a very flattering account of his
subjects, given from authority by him who ought to be
the father of his people instead of the Viceroy of Aus-
tria, whom he unblushingly calls the natural protector
of all the states in the Italian Peninsula. In the pre-
sence of such doctrines as these wo seem to be retro-
grading to the middle ages once more, and exceeding all
the nefarious doings of the Holy Alliance.
Whether this document be true or false, there are at
this moment no means of ascertaining. If it he false, it
is curious—to say the least of it; if it be true, it is
most important; but be it the one or be it the other, the
subject-mater it contains is well worthy of considera-
tion; for, as the Italians say, Si non e vero o ben trovato—
Gia !—Abridged from the Observer.
