THE CONGRESS.

The Liberte discusses the probabilities of a Conference.
England is willing to assist, but she is unfriendly to the
temporal power. So are Prussia and Russia. So, of
course, is Italy. Austria and Spain alone would be likely
to assent to any arrangement for its perpetuation. The
rumour that the French had accepted the offer of an
auxiliary corps of 40,000 Spanish troops is categorically
denied. It is said that Sefior Mon offered 12,000 men for
the Roman expedition, but that their services were at
once declined. . _

.According to despatches from Rome, Cardinal Antonell.
has declared in the name of the Papacy that the Sove!
reign Pontiff can never accept any z esult of a conference
of the Roman Catholic Powers which does not restore to
the Holy See the States of the Church now incorporated
with the kingdom of Italy.

An uneasy feeling prevails in Paris in consequence of
the discontent of the working classes. There is also a
strong feeling against the Government, said to be on the
increase, on the part of the holders of Mexican Bonds
and other securities formerly patronised by the Imperial
Government. The working men are forming combinations
and projecting new demonstrations. Large numbers of
them have been thrown out of employment by the closing of
factories in consequence of the dispute about theoctroi duties.
The question of the legality of these duties is before the
law courts. They are claimed by Baron llaussmann as
the necessary result of the annexation to Paris of the
outlying suburbs. The manufacturers allege that they
cannot pay them and carry on their businesses. It appears
certain that they will not. To check the growing discon-
tent among the ouvrier class, the Government will prc.
bably intervene.

A telegram nas been received announcing the death
of Marshal O'Donnell. The late marshal was born
in Spain in 1809. He was descended from a family of
Irish extraction which fled from Ireland in the reign of
James I. Whilst very young he entered the Spanish ser-
vice, and obtained the rank of colonel before he was 25
years old. From that time to the day of his death he
has occupied a foremost position in the political affairs of
Spain. While Captain-General, O'Donnell was sent to
Cuba. While there he amassed a large fortune. He wag
said to be by no means opposed to the slave trade. He was
one of the revolutionists who demanded the Constitution of
1837. In 1845 he re-established the Constitution. In 1831 he
was again implicated in a conspiracy. Only four years
later he was Prime Minister, and took the field against
Morocco. In consequence of his military success he was
created Duke of Tet n. He held office for the last time
in 1860. -, •
