siastic tributes of praise from the Public Journals of France
and Belgium.

WIND, Northerly ; light, with fine weather, but dull,
and much cooler. Yesterday was a burning day, but the
wind changed to the North in the evening, and was quite
refreshing.

The war being over, the Emperor NAPOLEON
has addressed a Proclamation to the Army of Italy,
to console them for the mock treaty of Peace which
he has palmed off on the liberated Italians ! We
cannot help pitying the poor people of that ill-
fated land for their highly-cherished hopes having
been so cruelly blasted by the sudden caprice of
the Emperor NAPOLEON. His conduct in the pre-
sent instance strongly reminds one of the famous

ditty—
" The King of France, with twenty thousand men,
Marched up the hill ; and then—march'd down again I"
NAPOLEON must have had this idea in his mind or
he never would have gone to Italy, simply to return,
leaving his proposed achievement so miserably
undone. He evidently got alarmed at the Quadri-
lateral fortresses, and. so made much ado about
nothing, and suddenly brought matters to a
dead lock. He now affects to tell the
army that he " only stopped because the
struggle was likely to assume proportions
which were no longer in relation with the interests
which France had in this fearful war." So, then,
it was for the interests of France that he deelared
war, and not for the interests of the Italians ! It
is said that people who are in the habit of telling
stories ought to have good memories ; and we think
the late and previous proclamations of the Emperor
NAPOLEON come within this definition, for there
never was a more glaring inconsistency between a
man's sayings and his doings than that exhibited
by NAPOLEON in this Italian war,—a war begun
with a splendid flourish of trumpets, and now
brought to such a lame and impotent conclusion.
Count CAVOUR is of the same opinion and has
resigned !

Mr. Du CANE was rather unlucky in his quota-
tions last night. He had however the good luck
to be followed by a grave and earnest Dissenter, Mr.
BAINES. Had any one with a spice of the gift of
repartee replied to him, he would have felt rather
awkwardly. Think of quoting in defence of Church
Rates, and against an Abolition Bill, those lines
which describe

" The good old rule, the simple plan,
That they should take who have the power,
And they should keep who can."
Why this is just the artillery with which every
outvoted minority of wronged and wrathful dis-
senters would assail the majority—the majority, it
may be of one, of their conforming fellow-parishion-
ers who enforced payment of a rate on the un-
willing. Certainly when the Dissenter pleaded
that there is no justice in his paying for
his own worship, and in his yet being corn
gelled by his neighbours to pay for theirs
too, he has the best reason to exclaim that
that his Church fellow-parishioners were adopting
the rough and. ready plan of "might, not right."
Again, said. Mr. Du CAN E—
"Vestigia nulla retrorsunz."

Hear, hear ! Mr. Bait/ Es
surely exclaimed. Le
not take a single step f. us
have the same majority this
backwards let Abolitionists
year as last Church-
rate defenders were long in arnajority ; some years
back the Abolitionists got a small majority, that ma-
jority has increased every year and with every new
Parliament ; let this year, and this Parliament,
the fourth or fifth which has given Abolitionists
large majorities—let this Parliament not take a
backward step. And the new Parliament has obeyed
the motto of the honourable Member, discard-
ing his absurd application of it. It has kept up
the majority well, and it did one thing more,
it has conquered one Whig Minister after another ;
till this time it has actually brought round the
joking Tory Premier himself. He thinks it now
no joke to fight every hustings in the kingdom,
and therefore, but We must acknowledge in capital
temper, he gives in, and says Abolition we must
have. Nulla restigia retrorsum; which means, the
Premier would say, that even Lord PALMERSTON
is no match for the hustings.

--- ---
Two quotations were, however, not quite enough
for Mr. Du CANE. Abolition, he added, would
'• Skin and film the ulcerous place,
While rank corruption mining all within
Infects unseen."
Surely here Mr. BAINES, Mr. HADFIELD, Mr-
FRANK CROSSLEY, and allthe Dissenters, redoubled
their cheers., They were quite prepared to prove
that the Churcb. of England was a huge ulcerous
place in the State, and that Church-rate abolition
would, so far a s it went, skin and film the ulcerous
place, and mal ce all seem pleafiant for a little while,
but that the s ore would surety break out again and
again, till thi ; Establishment itself was abolished.
