have been led astray from the path of virtue.

from all parts are admitted, the only condition being that
they are homeless and starving. The Manager &c.,
receives no remuneration whatever. Notwithstand-
ing the provision made by the Poor Houses, each
night numbers of young women, children, and orphans
are, for want accommodation, refused admittance, and have
to spend night after night in the cold, wet, and sleet. To
meet this evil, and to provide more ample accommoda-
tion, £2,000 has been raised, but to accomplish the
work a sum of at least £l,OOO more will lie required.
Besides providing shelter for the homeless, this year it
is proposed, as far as the donations obtained for the pur-
poso will allow, to give bread and coals to poor families
in want. Will you, in your charity, help to carry on and
accomplish what has boon begun ? Will you help to give
shelter to the really homeless, and food to the really
starving? The smallest donation will bo most welcome,
and, night and morning, the prayers of the destitute will
bo offered in your behalf.
SUBSCRIPTIONS are earnestly requested, and will bo
gratefully received by the Rev. D. (11LBEILT NO, 22,

SPIRIT OF THE PUBLIC JOURNALS.

TIMES.—We hardly fear to be accused of selfish-
ness if we express our satisfaction at the happy
course of events which has to so great an extent
estranged us from Continental politics. Fifty years
ago th kingdom of Hanover could hardly have been
blotted out of the list of European States without
England having a word to say on the subject. In-
deed, so strong, up to very recent times, were the
mere ties of personal union, so paramount were
dynastic claims over all other considerations, that
Hanover had become a much more integral part of
England than it was of Germany. So anomalous
throughout the last century was the condition of
that Electorate that any interference with it, even
by its liege lord, the German Emperor, would have
produced an immediate quarrel with England. Now
the utmost we may be called on to do in behalf of a
kingdom which was once almost as much a part of
us as Scotland or Ireland, is simply to express an
opinion as to the catastrophe which puts an end to
its independent existence, and once more intimately
associates its destinies with those of the great nation
of which it is, both by nature and by ancient tra-
ditions, an inseparable member. We should con-
tradict all we have said from the very outbreak of
the Austro-Prussian war, as to its probable results
on the rise and development of German nationality,
if we now denied or qualified our strong conviction
that it was for the general advantage that Hanover
and all the minor States of Germany should be
merged in their great Fatherland. The strength of
those members of the old empire was gained by the
general weakening of the body. The crowns rest-
ing on most of those Royal heads were won by base
treachery to the common cause of their country, and
although it would be difficult to prove the title of
Prussia to the inheritance of the empire, still it can-
not be denied that the work she has now in hand is
a work of reconstruction, and that Germany wins
back through her only what Hanover and Hesse Ba-
varia, Wurternber,ff and Prussia herself, the Oldest
and most daring offender on that score, had long
since taken from her. It does not follow, however,

because we think it our duty to recognise what
seems to us the truth of the matter, that we must
harden our hearts against those upon whom the
remote consequences of the errors or crimes of past
generations are visited. The maxim "La politique
n'a point d'entraillcs" is not binding on mere lookers-
on, and we may he compelled to acquiesce in the
extinction of Hanover without denying the tribute
of our sympathy to the Hanoverian dynasty. When
the " unification " of Italy was effected at the ex-
pense of the Reigning Houses of Bourbon, Este,
and Lorraine, although we have no great reason to
bewail the downfall of Princes who had only too
long disgraced the throne and had not even the
spirit to strike a blow in its defence, we did full
justice to two royal ladies, one of whom by her
wisdom and firmness, the other by her more than
feminine courage, showed themselves worthy of a
better fate. The exceptions we then made in behalf
of the Duchess of Parma and the Queen of Naples
apply now in favour of King George of Hanover and
his Royal family, not only because the King, unlike
him of Saxony, Bavaria, or Wurtemberg, made a
brave though unavailing resistance, but because both
himself and his predecessor had based their power
on a policy which set them apart from the common
herd of German Princes. The Crown of Hanover
was not like that of Bavaria or Saxony, or of
Wurtemberg or Baden, the gift of a foreign in-
vader ; nor did the Prince who first wore that
Crown apart from the Imperial Diadem of Great
Britain so far give in to the reactionary spirit that
carried everything around him as to break faith with
his subjects, in spite of the animosity to which
his policy exposed him on the part of his over-
bearing neighbours, and in spite of the controver-
sies into which his views of the exigencies of his
position led him with his too exacting Parliament.
The fidelity to his engagements of which King
Ernest gave so signal an example in 1848 was
followed with the strictest honour by his son and
successor, King George, from his accession in 1851
to the day of his departure from his capital in June
last. Ile completely identified himself with his
adopted country •, and, notwithstanding the gloomy
infirmity with which he was afflicted, so great was
the earnestness of the young King for the welfare
of his subjects, so active and minute and unwearied
his interference in affairs of State, as to give his
Government much more of a personal character
than is found to be compatible with true represen-
tative institutions. It will be easy, of course, to
say that the blow which brought to so abrupt a
close both his reign and the prospects of his dynasty
was not either altogether unexpected or undeserved ;
that the King hastened and aggravated his down-
fall by the too rash and decisive course which placed
him without sufficient reason on the losing side..

The real fact, however, is that the tendency o:
every war or revolution in Germany was necessa•
rily towards unity ; the independence of the minor
States, such as it was, was inexorably doomed ;
Kings and Grand Dukes could only fall back to
their original condition of mere vassals. The King
of Hanover and all his Royal brethren saw the fate
which was in store for them, and in the alternative
between submission to Prussia or Austria they chose
the latter, simply because they thought the compli-
cation of her non-German interests would at all
times weaken such ascendancy as she might aspire
to assert over Germany. Unfortunately for the
Sovereigns—most happily, as we believe, for the
people of Germany—Austria fell, and the Minor
States with her. King George, however, and his
descendants may find a consolation which is denied
to many of their Royal fellow-sufferers in other
German States, for their rights as Princes of the
Blood and members of the English Peerage secure
for them a station in this country which has little
cause to envy the lustre of Continental Royalty.
With these high hereditary privileges, and the
wealth which, it is to be hoped, they will save out
of the wreck of their private fortune, the Guelphs
of Hanover will have in these islands a far different
lot from that of many other "Monarchs retired from
business"—a lot which even these, however, do not
find altogether unendurable.
HERALD.-It would be difficult to exaggerate the
part of the Emperor of the French in the great
revolutions which, in the short space of seven years,
have changed the face of Europe. To him the au-
thorship of the unity of Germany, as well as that of
Italy, must be ascribed. It may be true that he did
not desire to see either of these results, but they are
not the less his work, because both proceed directly
from his policy. Italy could never have taken one
step towards unification, if the Emperor Napoleon
had not given her Lombardy, andforbidden Austria
to make any effort to restore the dispossessed princes,
or re-establish the authority of the Pope in the Le-
gations. And it was the strength acquired by these
annexations which enabled King Victor Emmanuel
to obtain possession of the Two Sicilies. Had
Austria been left to settle accounts with Piedmont
in 1859, she would have completely crushed that
ambitious little state. The Emperor of the French,
for reasons of one kind or other, joined his armies
to those of Piedmont, and inflicted upon Austria a
loss and a humiliation of which the great disasters
of the last month are the fatal offspring. Nor is
his hand less apparent in that far more important
revolution which has just taken place in Germany.
We will not dwell upon the fact, that if he had re-
sponded to the overtures of the English Cabinet for
an alliance on behalf of Denmark, the Schleswig-
Holstein war would not have broken out ; Count
Von Bismarck would not have established his po-
sition ; Austria and the smaller states would not
have been humiliated. But at any time up to the
middle of June it was in the power of the Emperor
to have prevented the war. He might have re-
strained Italy from embarking in the contest, he
might have compelled Prussia to give up her am-
bitious plans. Instead of that, he did his best to en-
courage both Prussia and Italy. He ostentatiously
declared their demands to be just, and whilst he
talked, indeed, about .tearing up of the Treaties
of 1815 in a strain which made it appear
probable that France would want some tear-
ing up which should be to her advantage, he
seemed disposed to await it from the gratitude
of Prussia and Austria. He facilitated the operations
of the Prussian army by a " friendly" neutrality
which relieved it from the necessity of guarding tilt
Rhine, and by reductions of armament, which pro-
mised that France, whichever way the struggle
might go, would not interfere. And now, at last, by
raising a demand for frontier rectifications, which he
did not intend to press, he has united the national
sentiment of Germany in favour of Prussia, and im-
mensely increased the pride and confidence of the
Prussian army and the Prussian people. That the
Emperor, fond as he is of talking about nationalitiies,
really proposed to himself as the end of his pp

ration, which might, indeed, have bestowed upon
Italy more liberty and more happiness, but could
not have given her the great military strength
which, united under one Sovereign, she must
possess. And with regard to Germany it is very
difficult to believe that the concentration of the
whole strength of Germany in Prussian hands, and
the annihilation of Austria as a great Power, formed
any part of his wishes. He probably looked for-
ward to a war in which neither side would come off
decisive victors, and a period of general depression
ancl,weariness of war, in which his mediation might
be welcomed, and repaid, if not by any cession
of territory, by an immense increase of influence.
It matters not, however, now, how far the desire
to promote the happiness and the glory of Italy and
Germany
guided the Emperor Napoleon's policy.
The fact remains that to him Italy and Germany
owe their unity, and the only question is whether he
will finally accept the position made for him by
events, and bow to the fate in which he believes.
For although both Italy and Germany may now be
called united, the unity is not complete or well es-
tablished, and it is in the power of the Emperor of
the French to expose it to a very dangerous test.
And, unfortunately, he has a very great temptation
to use his power. The views of the French nation
with regard to Italy are divided. Many look upon
the independence of Italy as a great achievement of
France, and sympathise very warmly with the Italian
aspirations for its completion. On the other hand, a
large party, looking only to the maintenance of the
Papal power, would move Heaven and earth to pre-
vent the entire withdrawal of French troops from
Rome, for which the Italians have always been even-
more anxious than for the acquisition of Venice.
The feeling with regard to Prussia is unanimous,
with the exception, of course, of manufacturers and
money-dealers. All classes would delight in a war
having for its object the acquisition of the Rhine, or
even the mere chastisement of Prussian vain-glory.
The Emperor has shown himself superior to this
temptation. Tie has braved the unpopularity which
tame submission to the Prussian refusal of the com-
paratively moderate demand for Saarlouis and Lan-
dau was sure to provoke ; and he has preferred the
permanent interests of France to a breadth of na-
tional enthusiasm. People talk about his ulterior
designs, and say that he will renew his claims for
compensation by and bye. Of course he may, but
it is difficult to believe it. And we are justified in
assuming that, so far as Germany is concerned, the
Emperor will not endeavour to undo the work of
his hands ; but, making a virtue of a necessity, con-
tinue to preserve the most cordial relations with
Prussia, and rather aid her than attempt to embar-
rass ler in the difficult task of reorganising Northern
Germany. But with regard to Italy we have no
such satisfactory assurances. It is true the time
approaches for the evacuation of Rome ; and one of
the great excuses for the occupation has disappeared
with the expulsion of the Austrians from Italy.
But then the execution of the September conven-
tion—the complete abandonment of the Pope to
his own resources or the tender mercies of the
Italian Government—would be extremely unpopular
with a large party in France, and it would, more-
over, be the abandonment of a position which, in
the present state of Italy, French politicians think it
most important for France to retain. So long as the
French occupy Rome they are masters of Itay, and
the policy of the Court of Florence can be shaped by
France whenever it is worth the while of France to
make the effort. Whenever the French withdraw
from Rome their influence will be far less directly
felt ; and although it is nonsense to talk, as our
Liberals do, of Italy as a really independent Power,
which can keep France in check in the Mediterranean,
Italy will cease to be so reliable an instrument in the
hands of France. But these considerations do not,
of course, justify a breach of the convention. The
French troops have no right to stay at Rome in
order to keep Italy a French dependence. Their
only right there, limited now by the convention
voluntarily entered into by France, is the necessity
of their presence to preserve the Pope in the enjoy-
ment of the temporalities left him. The Italian Go-
vernment has engaged not to attempt to disturb his
temporal power, and to take care that no such at-
tempts are made from its territory. With that en-
gagement the French Government was satisfied two
years ago, and the events of the last two months, in-
stead of weakening, have added to the value of it.
The evacuation of Rome may, of course, be followed
by events which would justify France in reoccupy-
ing the Holy City, but the bare apprehension of
such consequences would not justify the non-fulfil-
ment of the convention. There can be no difficulty
in making, in concert with the other Catholic Powers
and with Italy, such arrangements as will secure
the Pope the protection he requires. It is not so
much now the desire of acquiring Rome for a capital
as the craving to get altogether rid of the foreigner
which inspires the Italians in asking the evacuation
of Rome. The Pope will be safe enough ; the Italian
Government will be but too glad to come to an ar-
rangement with him ; and it is earnestly to be hoped
that the Emperor will not hesitate to complete his
work, and by recalling his troops from Rome, let
Italy be at last really free from foreign domination.

THE BRAZILS.

RIO DE JANEIRO, July 24.

Advices from the seat of war are to the 9th. No
important operation had been undertaken for lack
of horses for the cavalry and artillery, and it now
turns out that Baron Porto Alegre, who commands
the 2d corps of the Brazilian army, is nearly as bad
off for horses as the army at the Passo de la Patria.
To obtain means of mounting the cavalry the Ar-
gentine Republic passed a decree on the 7th instant,
appropriating 5,000 horses and 1,500 mules.
The South American cavalry has always been
mounted on bores unaccustomed to the stable or
corn, and consequently depending entirely upon
pastures for their feed ; where they are bad the ani-
mals suffer in proportion to its quality and quan-
tity. Where the allies are at present encamped
there are no pastures, good, bad, or indifferent, and
the animals have all died. The absurdity of the
system hitherto pursued has now become apparent,
but as the animals to be appropriated are stabled
and fed on hay and corn, they must be kept in the
same manner.

Sixteen large steam transports are to be despatched
by the Brazilian fleet from Corrientes to take these
animals on board, and to tow up other vessels also
laden with horses. _

The Paraguayans send a few shells daily into the
allied camp, but with little damage to the allies, who
reply with rifled cannon, La Hitte 12 pounders.
The squadron sent to aid the second corps of the
Brazilian army has arrived at its destination, and
was in communication with Gen. Porto Alegre,
who, instead of invading Paraguay at Itapua, will
march along the left bank of the Parana and cross
at the Passo de la Patria. He was expected very
shortly at that place ; but till he arrives and the
cavalry are mounted nothing can be done by the
allies.

The mail, however, brought one satisfactory item
of news. The hospitals at Corrientes are now in a
much better state, the commissariat department is
more efficient, and the peculations lately going on
at that place have received a severe blow by the pre-
sence of Marshal Polydoro du Fonseca Q. Jordao.

been fired at the fleet from the shore, but harmlessly.
The French Government has sent a captain of
artillery, M. Laprade, to follow the operations of the
fleet and allied army in Paraguay.
On the 11th, the Financial Committee of the
Chamber of Deputies brought forward a proposal
for new taxes by which the revenue will be increased
by 9,870,000 dollars. The tax on slaves, which has
also been considerably augmented, is calculated to
yield 3,700,000 f. more than at present.
