TRANCE AND ROME.

The following is a translation of the article in the
Constitutionnel of which a telegraphic summary has
already appeared in our columns :

"The Catholic world is anxiously expecting the resolu-
tions which recent events may inspire to the Sovereign
Pontiff. It is no longer possible to call in question the in-
fluences which tend to induce the Pope to leave Rome.
Will those influences succeed ? A very proximate result
will answer the question.

"We admit the full gravity of the events which are
actually taking place in the States of the Church, and we
understand the emotion they have caused at the
Vatican. But because a brutal aggression has been
committed against the Papal territory, is that a
reason why the Pope should quit his capital, which is the
metropolis of Catholicism ? As long as Rome remains to
the Papacy it will not be dethroned. Is not Rome the real
seat of the temporal and spiritual power of the Church ?
Is she not the glorious inheritance of St. Peter ? Doubtless
the provinces which surround it are a precious addition to
that imperishable gift, like the right of which it is the
human monument.

"But those provinces may be restricted or increased ac-
cording to circumstance, without the patrimony of the suc-
cessors of St. Peter being touched or the principle of its
sovereignty. There are in the world 200,000,000 of Catho•
lies, who will say to themselves, The Holy Father is at
Rome ; he can bless the whole world from the Summit of
the Quirinal; therefore he is a Sovereign.'
"And, therefore, let it be well observed, in the'condition
in which the Pope is now placed, his sovereignty is all the
more sure, because it is guaranteed by the honour of France.
There is at Rome a body of troops whose commander and
men are ready to die to protect tho safety and the authority
of the Holy Father. It is the most powerful Catholic na-
tion of the world which mounts guard at the gates of the
Vatican, and which renders invincible, like itself, the seat
of the political independence of the Head of the Church,
placed under the protection of its sword.
,4 why, then, should the Popo leave Rome ? Is it be-
cause France did not oppose the aggression of Piedmont by
force of arms ? France blamed the conduct of that Power ;
she recalled her ambassador from Turin; she publicly dis-
avowed an act which sho considered a violation of the law
of nations. Could she do more ? Ought we, as some
Legitimist journals declare, to have thrown 100,000 men
into Italy to defend the Papal territory ? It would
have been tantamount to assuming a position in Italy
which we denied to Austria. By such an intervention
we should have become the dominator of Italy. The feel-
ing of Italy would have rejected us, the feeling of Europe
would have suspected us. We should thereby have altered
our whole policy and lost the esteem and respect of the
people we have liberated, our part of moderator and libe-
rator.

" Nothing, therefore, can' be so:out of place as to ask
France to declare war on Piedmont. Franco has increased
her body of troops at Rome ; she will combat revolution if
it dares to approach that city ; it is her right as a Catholic
Power; by extending her interference beyond that she
would become a suspicion to Europe and hateful to Italy.
" 'Why, moreover, ask from France what Austria herself
did not think fit to do ? Does Austria intervene in the
States of the Church ? No ; she confines herself to a diplo-
matic protest, and in the. blame she throws on Piedmont
she has been anticipated by Prance.
" We therefore still hope that the Pope will not resort to
the advice given him, it must be said, in hatred to French
influence. Should he, however, give in, it would be, in
our cpinion, a great misfortune for the Church; but such
a step would not alter our duty, and France would always
be ready to show its respect and devotion to the Head of
the Church. She would always be ready to repair faults
the responsibility of which does not rest with her."

FATAL ACCIDENT ON THE GREAT NORTHERN
RAILWAY.—Yesterday morning a distressing and fatal
accident happened at the Doncaster station of the Great
Northetn Railway to a man named Foster, a foreman
employed over the fitters at the plant-works adjoining the
station. The man was standing- upon the down line as the
No. 6 goods train was coming up, and without having his
attention attracted by the approaching train, the driver of
which whistled to warn him of his danger, ho stood still,
it is believed, absorbed in thought, and the engine struck
him and threw him upon the line. The wheols of the engine
passed over both legs below the knees, and severed them
from the body. Concussion of the brain and other injuries
were so frightful that the poor fellow died in a few minutes
after the arrival of Mr. R. Sykes, the 4tompany's surgeon.
An inquest on view of the body was held last evening
before Krt 444144 v, tie borough comer.

MONEY MRKE2' AND CITY NEWS,

CITY, TWO O'CLOCK.

There is only a moderate inquiry for money,
and notwithstanding the redaced terms upon
which accommodation can be obtained in the
general market very little reference has been made
to the probability of an alteration in the minimum
rate of discount in the Bank of England. The
supplies of money continue plentiful, and first
class bills having only a short period to run can
be negotiated as low as 3: per cent., while loans
on English stock are negotiable at 2 to 2 per
cent.

Rather more business was transacted in the
Liverpool Cotton Market yesterday, 12,000 bales
having been sold at full rates. Tl,le Railway Share
Market closed with more animation, and prices ex-
hibited a general improvement.
A sum of £20,000, in gold, was withdrawn from
the Bank of England yesterday, for exportation.
The Tasmanian has been announced from the
West Indies, with a large supply of specie, viz.,
£1,132,400 ; and the Fulton has arrived from New
York, with £88,400 for France.

To-day a call of £2 per share, amounting to
£310,000, is due on the Great Indian Peninsula
New Railway Shares.

There was a meeting yesterday of the creditors
of Messrs. Smith, Sinclair, and Co., linen factors,
when a balance-sheet was presented showing the
liabilities to be £43.553, and the assets £15,736.
After some explanations, it was resolved that the
estate should be adjudicated in the Court of Bank-
ruptcy.

The last week's railway receipts, ascertained up
to this clay, are in round figures as under :

The Market for Public Securities continues quiet
but it presents a heavy appearance owing to sales
on speculative account. An unfavourable effect has
been produced by political advices from abroad,
especially in reference to the communication made
by Russia to France. Consols are 93 to 931 for
money, and 93i a for the 11th proximo. India
New Loan has receded to 1031 ; ditto 51 per Cent.
Eufaced Paper to 102; ; but the Debentures remain
at 961, and Exchequer Bills at par to 3s. prem.
In Foreign Securities the dealings have been
very moderate, and prices are depressed. Turkish
6 per Cents. are 731 to 74 ; ditto New, 551 to
66; Mexican are 22} ; ; Portuguese have receded
to 43k; Grenada Active to 161 d ; and Belgian 41
per Cents. are 98.

The Ocean Marine Insurance Shares are 1
2i prem. ; the Thames and Mersey, -Z- a prem. ;
and the Universal, :I, prem. _ _

A very moderate lisiness has been transacted in
the Railway Share Market, and prices generally
have been steady. Lancashire and Yorkshire, and
Manchester, Sheffield, and Lincoln advanced ss. ;
Great Northern, 10s. ; and North Eastern (Berwick),
£1 ; Caledonian have declined 55., and Midland and
South Eastern 10s.

In the Foreign and Colonial markets there has
been no change of importance. South Austrian

Luxembourg realise 7 ; East Indian are 100 to 1001 ;
Grand Trunk of Canada, 27 2i a ; and Great
Western of Canada, 131 13,1.

METROPOLITAN CATTLE MARKET.
Our market to-day was but fairly supplied with beasts
in but middling condition. All kinds met a dull inquiry,
at Monday's decline in the quotations. Prime sheep were
scarce and in fair request at full prices, but long-wools were
a dull sale at previous currencies. The top figure for
Downs was 5s 2d per Blbs. We were fairly supplied with
calves, which moved off slowly at last week's prices—viz.,
from 4s to 5s per Sibs. There was only a moderate sale for
pigs, nevertheless the quotations were firm. In mulch cows
very little was doing.
Per 81bs to sink the offal.
