RUSSIA.

The Emperor and Empress of Russia have left
Warsaw for St. Petersburg.
A letter from St Petersburg of the 10th says :
"The Grand Duchess Mary has returned to St.
Petersburg ; her children preceded her by some
days. Prince Goitschakoff, who is not to accom-
pany the Emperor to Kiew, is to be here on the
14th. The small squadron destined for the ports
of Eastern Siberia let the roadstead of Cronstadt
ou the Ist ; it consists of three corvettes and three
screw clippers. Tho Grand Duke and Grand
Duchess Constantine were present at the depar-
ture of the flotilla. As esch vessel passed before
the prince and princess, the sailors cheered. The
corvettes Olivuzza and Drina have returned to
Cronstadt after an absence of more than four
years. The Academy of Sciences held on Wed-
nelday an extraordinary sitting to distribute the
prizes left by Count Alexis Ouvarof for the best his-
torical works and the 'hest dramas. For the former,
the great prizes of 6,000 f. were not granted, none
of the works sent in being of sufficient merit, but a
second prize of 2,000 f. was given to M. Rovinski
for a History (4 Sacred Painting' in Russia. The
prizes for plays were not given."

DUBLIN, SATURDAY.

GOVERNMENT PATRONAGE.

Lord Carlisle has just made an appointment
which, miraculous to say, has elicited the warmest
euconituns of the Conservative journals, notwith-
standing the inauspicious fact that the gentleman
favoured by the Irish Executive is a member of the
Roman Catholic Church. The Evening Mail, in
noticing the elevation of Mr. Michael Morriy, of
the Connaught bar, to the recordership of Galway,
says,—

'A better appointment could not possibly be made.
Mr. Morris is a gentleman of first-rate abilities, an able
lawyer, a ripe and accomplished scholar ; and, from the
assiduity with which he devotes himself to his profes-
sion, there cannot be the slightest doubt, if spared, he
will one day rise to the highest eminence. Mr. Morris
is a Roman Catholic, but never lent himself to the base
and worthless party who, by adopting agitation as a
trade have set a barrier between themselves and all good
citizens. On the contrary, he always stood by his order,'
and, while paying all due deference to the clergy of his
religion in spiritual matters, strongly and successfully
struggled against their undue interference in political
affairs. We wish Lord Carlisle would give us frequent
opportunities of speaking in such terms as these of his
appointments."

THE LATE STH ROYAL IRISH DRAGOONS.

The Leinster Express, alluding to the rumoured
resuscitation of the old sth Dragoons, who were
disbanded at the close of the last century, has rea-
son to believe that Coloitel Dunne, late M.P. for
Portarlington, is prepared to undertake the reor-
ganisation of the reOment. The Express thinks,
and probably with reason, that the spirits of Ireland
GO years ago are not likely to obstruct the valour of
a new Irish regiment. At all events, it might be
well to fill up a blank of very invidious import in
the Army List, either by an English, Irish, or
Scotch corps, or by a combination of the three ele
ments, if more desirable.

There was rather an extensive show of foreign stock in
to-day's market in fair condition. The trade ruled heavy,
at drooping prices.

The arrivals of beasts fresh up to our market to-day from
the north were rather on the increase, and their general
weight was far superior to last week As the dead markets
worn well supplied the beef trade ruled heavy, at Friday's
decline in value of 2d per 81bs. '[he highest quotation
was 4s 10d per 81bs.
From Lincolnshire, Leicestershire, and Northampton•
shire we received 3,000 short horns; from other parts of
England, 350 of various brzeds; from Scotland, 15 Scots;
and from Ireland, via Liverpool, 550 oxen.
Tho show of sheep was rather on the increase, yet very
moderate compared with former seasons. All breeds met a
dull inquiry. Prime Downs declined 2d, other breeds 2d
to 4d per 81bs compared with Monday last. A few very
superior old Downs realised 5s 6d, but the general top
figure was 584(1 per Sibs. About 500 sheep came to hand
from Ireland.

We were fairly supplied with calves, in which only a

limited business was transacted, at 2d to 4d per 81b less
money. The highest quotation for veal was 4s 8d per Blbs.
The supply of pigs was moderate, and the pork trade
ruled heavy, at barely stationary 'lckes.

WESTMINSTER.

FICBOCIOIIS ASSAULT.--This day John Walsh, an Irish
labourer, residing at No. 2, Exeter-building,, Sloane
street, was charged before Mr. Paynter with a most vio-
lent and ferocious assault on John Scantier, living in the
same neighbourhood, by severely biting him on the
cheek, and also with assaulting Dobson, B 177.
The complainant, who bad several pieces of adhesive
plaster on the left cheek, and who was scarcely able to
speak, said that between 9 and 10 o'clock on Saturday
night he was going to his wife with a pair of boots. On
his way the prisoner accused him of having been the
cause of his (prisoner's) imprisonment for a month. Com-
plainant denied this, and went away. After he left his
wife he again met the prisoner, who made a similar
charge respecting another man. Complainant told him
that he was a liar. The prisoner observed that he (com-
plainant) was one, and struck bim. Complainant was
knocked down, and while he was on the ground the pri-
soner fixed his teeth on complainant's cheek, and " bit
him as if he would eat him." Complainant was released
from the prisoner by some persons. He made his escape,
and complainant was conveyed to St. George's Hospital.
Police-constable Flinder said that on Sunday morning
about 10 o'clock, while at the Station-house be heard
of the as,ault on the complainant, and apprehended the
prisoner in Hyde Park.
Dobson said that he endeavoured to take the prisoner
into custody on the evening in question. The prisoner
resisted, and said that he would not go. Witness got
another con-table to assist him, and tried to persuade
the prisoner to go quietly, but he refused, and knocked
him down. While on the around, he kicked witness
about the body, and then he bit his fingers on the left
band. (The witness had his hand in a sling.)
Mr. Paynter said that the assault was of a very
serious character, that he should remand the prisoner,
and that when brought up again, he would most likely
send him for trial.
The prisoner was then remanded.

CORN EXCHANGE.

Most of the country markets held on Saturday were fairly
supplied with wheat, and the trade ruled heavy, at droop-
ing prices. Fine barley realised fall quotations. All
other kinds of produce met a dull inquiry.
The French markets have continued very inactive for
both wheat and flour, on lower terms. In Germany, the
grain trade has continued heavy, and, in the "United
States, prices have fallen to a shipping point.
The arrivals of home-grown produce up to our market
last week were on the increase, and the imports from
abroad were liberal, viz., 30,216 qulrters of wheat, 9,389
barley, 30,843 oats, 503 beans,
830 peas, 9,b50 linseed, 590
rapesee 1, 170 mustard seed, 1,210 sundry seeds, 207 sacks
and 3,765 barrels of flower.

The arrivals of English wheat fresh up to our market
to-day were only moderate, and, owing to the continu-
ance of damp weather, many of the samples were somewhat
out of condition. The attendance of millers was by no
means numerous, and the demand for all kinds of wheat
of home produce ruled heavy, at a decline in the quota-
tions realised on Monday last of fully 23. per quarter. The
Kentish stands were not cleared at a late hour.
There was rather an increase in the show of foreign
wheat, and the bulk of the late arrival consists of good
sound useable qualities. The trade ruled heavy in the
extreme, and the few sales effected were at a fall in value
compared with this day ssu'night, of from is to fully 2s
per quarter.

Floating cargoes of grain were much lass active, but not
cheaper.

Fine belief sold to a moderate extent, at full prices ;
but grinding and distilling sorts were heavy, and quits is
per quarter cheaper.

Malt sold almost wholly in retail quantities at lase
wesk's prices.

We were well supplied with oats, in which there was
much less activity. Good sound parcels supported previ-
ous rates, but damp qualities gave way 6d to is per qr.
The few beans ou offer ruled dull, at barely stationary
prices.

In peas very little was doing, at lato rates.
The flour trade was dull, and country marks wero fully

PARIS, SUNDAY.
Their Majesties camc to Paris yesterday after-
noon, and after stopping for a short time at the
Tuileries went to pay a visit to the Grand Duchess
of Mecklenburg, in the Place Vend()me.
A telegraphic desp.itch zeeived by the French
Government through Germany that the Prince de
Joinville arrived on the Bth of October at Sebas-
topol.

M. Christopoulos, the Minister of Public Instruc■
tion at Athens, has addressed an interesting com-
munication to the Paris Academy of Inscriptions
and Belles Lettres on some curious antiquities
which have lately been discoverel in Greece.
" I am able to inform you," writes a Paris corres-
pondent of the Nord of Brussels, " that there is
not a word of truth in the romance about Prince
Murat published by the Independance. The Em-
peror Napoleon has nowhere made the proposition
or insinuation about which that journal has thought
to speak to its readers. His Majesty never spoke
of the candidateship, and did not even pronounce
the name of the young Prince Murat either at Os-
borne or Stuttgart, and I believe that it would
be ♦ery difficult to name a single serious poli-
tical circle in which there has been a question
of it." We read in another column of the said
journal :—" The rumour of the candidateship of
Prince Murat as prince of the Routnains is not
spisad in official circles either at Paris or anywhere
else. Probably the statement that is current in di-
plomatic circles is only an attempt to cause it to be
credited."

A Paris letter in the Independence of Brussels
says :—" There was something true in the rumour
of a protest of the English and Austrian ambassa-
dors at Constantinople against the last Moldavian
elections. What has occurred appears to be this :
—M. de Prokesch having opened an investigation,
pretended that he had discovered abuses of influence
and illegalities as flagraot as those which signalised
the first elections, and he intends, it is said, to sub-
mit them to the conference of Paris. This is what
has given rise to the rumour in question."

FOREST OF DE&N CENTRAL.

The half-yearly meeting of this company was held
at Newnham on Monday. Mr. J. Teague pre.-ided.
The directors in their report congratulate the
shareholders upon the actual commencement of the
works. They state that no hindrance to the vigor-
cus prosecution of this railway can be relsonably
feared, and it only remains for the shareliollers to
respond to the calls as they may from time to time
be made to insure the rapid completion of this un-
dertaking. It will now be necessary that the call of
2/. per share due in April last should at once be an-
swered by those shareholders who have not already
done so ; and this, together with the amount now
in hand, will provides balance sufficient to meet, the
payments that must necessarily be made fur some
time to come. The sanction and support promised
by the Office of Woods in respect of the lands in
Dean Forest have been fully accorded. The mcs-
sity of the line being speedily finished becomes day
by day more apparent ; the works on the course of
the line now in progress will of themselves be suf-
ficient to pay a handsome dividend immediately,
the line can be opened for traffic ; and the prospec-
tive supply of minerals and other products of the
district will realise the most sanguine expectations
formed in respect of the value of the Forest of Dean
Central Railway.
The report was adopted, and the meeting sepa-
rated.

ITALY.

• A letter:from Naples, in the Gazette de Lyon,
gives some particulars of the termination of the
differences between Piedmont and the Two Sicilies
on , the subject of the capture of the Cagliari
steamer :—" It has been stated that notes had
been addressed to•the Neapolitan Government by
the Cabinets :of London and Turin, protf*ting
' against the detention and trial of British and Sa-di-
Man subjects who were on bogrd the Cagliari, either
as pyssengers or as composing her ecew, and that a
rupture had taken place between the Cabinets o
Turin and Naples. • All this is incorrect. The
truth is, that the Court of Naples assumed the in-
itiative by addressing a note to the Piedmontese
Government, complaining that an expedition
against the safety of the kingdOin of the Two Sic li s
should have been organised .without the.knowleoge
of the police, or, what would be still worse, with
the connivance of the Government. This note was
written in a very dignified and firm style. Thl
Cabinet
.of_Turin, in its reply, did not assume
the attitude of arrogance which has been attri-
buted to it- by certain journals ; its note, on the
contrary, was written in a tone of great mode-
ration and in a spirit of conciliation. The Sardi-
man Minister endeavours to justify his goVernmerit
from the charge of connivance. He stated that the
captain of the Cagliari was the -Victim of an infa-
mous scheme, and that he was compelled by 'no-.

lence to change his destination, which was Tunis,
and proceed to Ponza and Sapri ; and that, copse
quently, it was not surprising that the Sardinian
police should have been deceived. As a proof of its
good faith, the Cabinet of Turin assures the Neapo-
litan Gbvernment that for the future a more rigid
surveillance shall'be exercised, and promises to give
the Government of Naples information of any facts
arhich may come out during the political trials now
doing on at Genoa, which may in any way in-
terest the security of- the Kingdom of the Two
Sicilies, and requests that the Neapolitan Go-
vernment will make a similar 'communication
should anything transpire during the trial before
the Court of Salerno calculated to throw light on
the events which have lately taken place in Pied-
•nont. No trace of any bitterness of expression is
ro be found in any of the notes exchanged. As far
to regards England, no note whatever has been
sent. 'The consul at Naples has confined himself
to recommending his countrymen who were ou
board the Cagliari to the attention of the Neapoli-
,an Government, without in any way wishing to
impede the free course of justice and throw any
difficulties in the way of the investigations which
may lead to the discovery of the hand which directed
the criminal enterprise of Sapri..'

SiIIPPING RETURNS.

The sbipping statistics of the Board of Trade for the
mouth of July show a moderate increase in the aggregate
amount of tonnage employed. The increase in British
vessels is very considerable, while in foreign, with the
exception of American, there has been a falling off. Sub-
joined are the general figures :
Entered inward :
TONNAGE FOR JULY. •
1855. 1853. 1857.
British vessels 474,431 560,013 629,925
United States vessels 119,277 158,611 116,402
Other countries 171,312 219,768 191,610

7€5,020 938,392 937,937
The clearances outward were :-
1855. 1856. 1857.
British vessels 488,577 565,459 18,477
United States' vessels 108,657 160,997 103,709
Other countries 265,791 197,237 273,360

863,005 026,693 995,546
With regard to the coasting trade, it appears the
tonnage entered inward was 1,098,455 in July, 1855 ;
in 1856 it was 1,098,568; and in the present return
is i 3 1,126,940, including 22 foreign vessels, of an ag-
gregate burden of 2,996 tons. The clearances out
ward were 1,172,737 in July, 1855 ; 1,187,895 in
1856 ; and 1,260,498, including 3,309 of foreign, in
1857.

ARMY AND ORDNANCE EXPENDITURE,

Yesterday were issued, in the form of a return to par-
liament from the Audit-office, two accounts of the re-
ceipts and expenditure for army commissariat, militia,
and the ordnance services for the year ended 31st March,
1856. The aggregate amount of the ordinary grants for
army, militia, and commissariat services in 1855 56 was
18,780,5321. ; the appropriation in aid, viz., the contri-
bution from the revenues of the Australian colonies in
aid of military expenditure, was 37,9481. Is. 11d.,
making together 18,828,4801 8!. 11d. ; and the total ex-
penditure as shown by the account was 20,350,5801. lls.
11d. It appsars that while there was a saving of
961,797/. 17s. 4d. upon thirteen votes of the year, on
eight other votes the expenditure exceeded the amount
voted by 2,484,8911. Os. 41., and deducting 882,4981.
19,. 61., the saving on embodied militia, which was not
applied to cover the deficiency of other votes, the nett
deficiency of the year was 2,405,5991. 2s. 61 This defi-
ciency was provided for by the transfer of a like sum
from the special vote of 3,000,0001. granted by parlia-
ment, to meet any additional expenses arising out of the
Russian war, leaving the 882,4981. 19s. 6J. unexpended
.on the embodied militia to be surrendered to the
eh cquer.
The second account shows that the amount voted for
the ordnance services was 9,990,165/., whereas the ex-
penditure amounted to 11,993.7841. 3s. 4J., leaving a
deficiency of 2,003,619/. 3s. 4J. The sum of 2,019,037/.
12 10., was expended in eight votes beyond the
amounts voted by parliament ; but upon two votes, viz.,
scientific branch and non-effective services, there was a
saving of 15,418/. Bs. 9d., which reduced the actual de-
ficiency to 2,003,5191. 3s. 4d. This deficiency was made
up by a transfer of a like sum from the 3,000,0011. Toted
for the additional expenses of the Russian war.

In reference to the above two accounts a correspon-
dence is appended to the first, between the Treasury, the
Audit-office, and the War Department, as to the delay
which had occurred in furnishing them. The War-office
excused the delay on the ground that the Russian war
had rendered it more than usually laborious and difficult
to make up the returns from its various departments,
and while accepting this excuse the Lords of the Trea-
sury express a hope that " Lord Panmure will take the
necessary steps for expediting the completion of the ac-
counts so that they may be presented in future years on
the Ist of March, or earlier, if passible."

NIOARAGUA.

The f yllowing is a translation of an address issued
by Don Patricio Rivas to his countrymen on the
occasion of his retiring from tl,i3 Presidentship of
the Republic of Nicaragua, and printed by order of
that government

Leon, June 24, 1857.

Nicaraguans,—l this day withdraw from the Presi
dentship of theßepublic, which will be vested in General
Senor Jerez and Senor Martinez. They are resolved, in
the exercise of the supreme power, to conciliate parties,
to maintain the dignity of the nation, and to cause thr
,political and civil guarantees of the people of Nicaragui,
to be respected. Let all unite in good faith; rally roune
the new governors, and lend them that co-operation am
assistance which each may be able to afford.
Wh m the a.bdicat'on of my office was proposed tr
me, Prez,igned without a moment's hesitation. "If civi
war continues," I said to myself, "it will bring desola
Lion upon one of the finest States of Central America.
This consideration appal* me. I perceive how mucl
better it will be ifs cease to command than insist on tilt
fulfilment of the convention of the 12th Sept., 1856. Tr,
be the cause of a renewed conflict I dread more than
death. Impartial history. will determine whether the
acts of my Government had other objects in view tha:.
the welfare of Nicaragua. With tranquility I await this
judgment of my conduct."
Fellow-citizens,—You have witnessed the days of bit-
terness I experienced during my administration. I have
shrunk from no sacrifice to save the independence of the
country, and to rescue it from the stormy sea of anarchy,
ro the many citizens who have with me participated in
these sacrifices I offer my most heartfelt thanks.
Fellow-countrymen,—More than two-thirds of my life
have passed, and to the eod of the few days that yet re-
main to me the privacy of domestic life is my only aspi-
ration. M, heart, however, will always be with Nice
ragua, and with my last breath I will pray to haven for
her happiness. PATHICIO RIVAS.

SPAIN.

The Madrid Gazette of the 29th ult. publishes a
telegraphic despatch from the embassador at Rom-,
announcing that on the Bth Sept. the Holy Father
will do the embassy the signal honour of consecra-
ting the monument ereeted in its palace to com-
memorate the proclamation of the mystery of
'he Immaculate Conception as a dogma of the
Roman Catholic church. The Espana, 'a semi-
official authority, po!itively denies, "on inform -
tion obtained from the best sources," that any
secret treaty exists between the United Stat -s and
Mexico. Whit has given rise- to the rumour f
the existence of one is, it says, that an understand-
ing exists between some American and Cuban
filibusters ; but it declares that the projeats of
those parties " may be regarded with contempt."
The new scheme of public instruction had be,n
definitively drawn up, and was about to be sub-
mitted to the Queen. The recent census shows the
popu'ation of Spain to amount to 16,340,500 souls.

According to a letter from Berlin of the 30th
ult., the arrangements for the great military
movements which are about to take place will
hive to be modified, owing to ophthalmic c )m-
-plaints having broken out in the garrisons of Berlin
and, Potsdam, and appearing on the increase.

Prince Frederic Wlllian of Prussia, according to
a letter from Berlin, after his marriage with the
Princess Royal of England will reS:de dtiring tha
summer at Breslau, and will have in the provinces
of Silesia and Prussia the same position as the
Prince of Prussia in tbe provinces of the Rhine and
of Westphalia, where he is Military Governor.

The Queen: of Bavaria. and *the two 'younger
princes her scirrs who are stopping in the moun-
ains of the south of Bavaria, made a few days
ago the ascmsion of the Beiling, which is upwards
of 6,000 'feet high. The Arcbishop of Friburg,
Mgr. de Vicari, though 85 years of age, is making
a pedestrian excursion in the same mountains.

"It is p-sitively stated," says a Paris letter in
the Independance of Brussels, " that the Duke de
Grammont will not arrive in France before the 25th
September, and thAt he is now occupied at Turin
in arranging the long standing differences between
the Holy See and the King of Sardinia. It is
added that be does not despair about bringing
about a reconciliation between the two govern-
ments."

A letter from Warsaw says :—" The Prince
Lieutenant-General has been officially informed
from St. Petersburg that the Emperor Alexander
will arrive in this city on the 6th Sept., and
remain here until the 12th, when his Majesty will
leave for Berlin, arriving there on the 14th."

THE MUTINY AT JHELUM.

The following are extracts from a letter rece;vel
from the wife of a medical ofacer connected with
Cork. The Captain Spring whose fate will occa-
sion grief to a number of families was son of the
late Colonel Spring, of Kerry. After 18 years'
service ho had risen to the position of second on
the list of captains of the regiment, and might,
therefore, have naturally expected that his promo-
tion to the rank of Major would soon take place :----

"Murree, July 13

"My Dear —, —On the Ist of July three com-
panies of her Majesty's 24th Regiment, with five officers,
under the command of Colonel Ellice, were ordered to
march towards Lahore, the only orders Colonel E lice
got being, When you get to Jhelum, half way to La-
hore, telegraph ycur arrival.' It now seems that their
movement was intended to disarm the 14th Native In-
fantry at Jhelum.
"On the morning of the 7th they marched into
Jhelum, and found the 14',11 Native Infantry drawn up
on parade to hear an order read. The mome .t they saw
the 24th they fired a volley at them ; the 24th instantly
charged the 14th into their lines, and had most awful
work, for the wretches had fortified their huts, loop-
holed the walls, &c.
"Some of the 14th retired to a village which bad also
been fortified. There the 24:12 followed them, and there
was a renewal of dreadful havoc. Poor Captain Spring
was ditking from Rourkee, and arrived at Jhelum the
morning of the mutiny. He, also, was mortally wounded
that day, and died on the following.
"Colonel Mice was severely wounded in the neck
and thigh, and poc,r D9r. Streatfield wounded in both
legs ; one leg has been amputated, and the other, they
fear, must come off. Mr Chichester was wounded
through the arm. Twenty-four men were buried with
poor Captain Spring on the Bth, and 50 wounded, some

THE CAMP AT CHALONS.

A correspondent of the Independance of Brussels
gives the following details of the camp at
Chalons :

" The inhabitants of the country flock to this
spot to admire the wonderful metamorphosis which
has been effected here. Dry and barren plains
which before were the image of desolation are now
all life and animation. In a few. days whole villages
have been constructed. Huts in planks for
kitcheni, for officers' mess-rooms, for canteens,
stables, &c., extended from the Petit Mourmelon
towards the Grand ' St. Hilaire. It is towards
Rheims that the most curious park of the camp is
placed. The railway station is situated in that quar-
ter. Piles for a bridge across the Grand Mourmelon
have already been driven. On leaving the station;
and in advancing into the camp, a large slaughter-
house is seen, where from 25 to 30-oxen are killed
every day, and the cmsunaption will soon mate-
rially increase, A number of live animals, suffi-
cient for five-or six -days, are always kept in re
serve. The skins of the slaughtered animals are
sold in Paris, and the fat is sent to Strasbourg. The
part of the establishment which will be visited
with great interest by tourists is the bakehouse,
where a great number of field ovens may be seen
in operation. They are formed by exctvations
made in the ground, lined with plates of cast
iron, covered at the top with sheet iron, and
over that with sand. In the front is a square hole,
formed of brickwork, through which the l,)aves are
introduced. The bread baited in this way is ex-
cellent. Next come the storehouses for cononial
produce, for forage, for different kinds of camp
equipage, and other articles, and at the end of
the whole is the park of artillery. Near this spot,
and just across the rivulet of the Mourmelon, are
stationed three brigades of cavalry, and in the rear
of them the infantry, whole quarters extend in
the direction of the village of the Grand St. Hi-
laire. Opposite, in the interior of the camp and
across the Roman road, are placed the staff and
the Imperial headquarters, with the pavilion of the
Emperor. On either side of the pavilion, whic't is
painted blue and white, in imitation of striped
cloth, are two- pretty chalets, and in the rear
a small clump of fir trees. The Imperial pavilion
cainmands a view of the whole camp and neigh-
bourhood Restaurants, cafes, and shops of all
kinds have already been established on the slopes
between Livry and Sonain, running in fact along
the whole length of the camp. The Grand Mour-
melon is full of dealers, who offer for sale bed-=,
tables, kitchen utensils, and books, among which
the works of Paul de Kock and PigaultLebrun
predominate. Magnificent frte3 are talked of dur-
ing the sojourn of the Emperor. His ntjesty has
invited Marshals Pelissier, Canrobert, Bosquet,
and Baraguay d'llilliers to come and pass some
days at the camp. Mgr. Morlot, Archb.shop of
Paris, who is to perform a solemn mass at the camp
on Sunday, will reside at Rheims."
