" OUR HOLY FATHER THE POPE."

The following flying-sheet has been circulated
largely in Paris :
I.
Always the same tune! In the street and at
home, in the newspapers and in conversation, at
church and at the pothouse, we hear nothing else
but discussions on our holy father the Pope.
All this noise becomes tiresome. The poor dear
old man may have made some mistakes—that is
his misfortune, but it is his nwn look-out.
If, as is said, he has broken faith with his people
by making promises to them which he has never
kept, I think that, after having exhausted their
stock of patience, they have a right to say to him,
" Holy Father, we beg you a thousand pardons for
leaving you, but we prefer to have for a temporal
leader a brave and gallant King who keeps his
word."

If, as is said, he curses modern civilisation, and
believes that liberty is meant for him alone, what
is to be done ? Is not a shrug of the shoulders the
best reply ?
If he mistakes obstinacy for dignity, the non pos-
sionus for magnanimity, Castelfidardo for a glorious
battle-field, the abductions of Mortara and Bluth
for acts of heroic virtue—truly, the infallibility of
the Holy Father appears to me to be somewhat at
fault.

If, as is said, the Holy Father is doomed to fall
headlong from the summit of his temporal power, it
will only be by his own over-balance, and because
he did not think it worth while to give a substruc-
ture to his edifice by deserving the love of his sub-
jects ; and that is his own look• out.
TT

If the Holy Father followed in the steps of Christ,
provin..- to us by his conduct that he is the first
disciple of a kind and loving master;
It, instead of reminding us of Peter's pence and
the patrimony of the Church, he spoke to us of a
celestial kingdom and of the treasures of faith and
morality;
If he busied himself a little less with rifled cannon,
and a little more with the spiritual weapons with
which he would teach us to overcome injustice,
idleness, and debauchery ;
If, following in the steps of the Lord, he would
drive the vendors out of the Temple that the whole
edifice should contain only works of purity, charity,
and piety ;
If, in a word, he only gave us as a command the
holy Gospels—
Oh, then we should vie with one another to give
him a welcome. A thousand voices would shout
" Hail to the Pontiff we want ! Long live the Holy
Father !"

THE BLOCKADE IN AMERICA.

Lord J. RUSSELL said it might be desirable, for the
information of commercial classes, if he stated the present
position in which they stood in reference to the bloekade of
the seceded States. In April last a notification had been
issued by the President that it was proposed to blockade
seven of the seceding States. He had since stated that he
would notify in each case the port it was proposed to
blocade, and since then South Carolina and Virginia. The
noble lord was then understood to say that 15 days would
be permitted to persons in the blockaded ports to leave, but
vessels would not be allowed to enter these ports for the
purpose of removing property.

Mr. Alderman and Sheriff Abbiss presented a
petition from Mr. Alfred Skene, late a broker of the
city of London, praying to be admitted to the same
office, from which he had been discharged by the
Court.

The circumstances under which this application
was made to the Court were somewhat peculiar.
It will be remembered that in 1858 Mr. Skene, who
at that time carried on extensive business, iu part-
nership with a person named Archibald Freeman,
as colonial brokers in the Ci!y, was tried at the
Central Criminal Court with ,iis partner, under the
Fraudulent Bailee Act, for misappropriating a war-
rant for a cargo of timber that had been entrusted
to them by Messrs. Cavan and Co. to sell. It ap-
peared that a sum of money had been borrowed
from the City Bank upon the security of this war-
rant, and the defence that was set up by the pre-

man in my life ; who are you ? I said I heard Mr. Roberts
speak of you, and I've been out with Mrs. Murray. I
asked if she had been sent for. Murray again asked
who I was, and then he said, I think you are
as mad as your husband. I have been in Mrs.
Murray's company three times. The first time was three
or four years ago, at the Surrey Hall. Mr. Roberts was
with me. I was introduced to her by Mr. Roberts.
Nothing passed but the usual civilities. The next time
was when she \cent to witness the opening of Parliament;
and the third was last summer.

yard. I have been on a visit to my sister, Mrs. Roberts,

Roberts said he had seen Major Murray in the Strand three
months before, his father having pointed him out to him,
and that he had also seen him on the landing of No. 16,

CRIMINALS IN FOREIGN COUNTRIES.

The Town Clerk read a letter from Mr. Wad-
dington, the Under Secretary of the Home office,
calling the attention of the City magistrates to the
fact that several instances had recently occurred in
which police officers, of their own accord, had ap-
plied to diplomatic agents of this country and con-
suls, in foreign countries, for their assistance to pro-
cure the apprehension of fugitive criminals from
this country, and that the proceeding had been
found to be productive of great inconvenience. The
Court was therefore informed that in future no such
application would receive any attention by the con-
suls or other diplomatic agents of this country in
foreign dominions, unless an application was previ-
ously made to the Secretary of State for the Home
Department, and received his sanction.
Mr. Alderman COPELAND said that he was per-
sonally acquainted with many cases in which re-
monstrance had been made by foreign Governments
to this country in reference to the unauthorised pro-
ceedings of police officers who were desirous of ap-
prehending criminals who had fled from this coup•
try, and it was high time that such proceedings
should be put a stop to. lie therefore moved thit
the letter of Mr. Waddington should be referred to
the Commissioner of the City Police, with a viewto
his giving strict directions to his officers that tiey
should not for the future take any steps in such
proCeedings without first applying to the Pomo
Secretary, and obtaining his authority.
The motion was carried.

METROPOLITAN CATTLE MARKET.

There was only a limited supply of beasts on offer in our
market to-day. Prime Scots, &c., commanded a steady
sale, at full prices ; but all other breeds moved off slowly,
at late rates. Sheep—the show of which was moderately
good—realised Monday's currency ; but the demand for
them was by no means active. We have to report a slow
enquiry for lambs, but at full quotations—viz., from ss. to
6s. per Sibs. The veal trade was in a sluggish state, on
former terms. The supply of calves was good. Pigs and
milch cows met a dull enquiry, at late quotations.

JONES V. JONES.

This was a suit instituted by Elizabeth Harriet
Jones for a dissolution of marriage on the ground
of her husband's adultery and cruelty, to which
there was no appearance.
Dr. Spinks was counsel for the petitioner.
It appeared that the parties were married in 1841,
and lived for nine years afterwards at Deptford,
where the respondent worked as a cooper. The ill-
treatment commenced shortly after marriage, and
continued until the final separation in 1858. Previ-
ously they had separated several times, but the peti-
tioner had been induced to resume cohabitation on the
respondent's promise of amendment. He was ad-
dicted to intemperance, and while under its influence
his conduct was most violent. He kept a loaded gun,
and several times threatened to shoot the petitioner,
and her face was frequently disfigured from the vio-
lence. The circumstancs connected with their last
separation, which took place at Romford, were his
refusing to give up their child to their landlady
while he was drinking at a public-house, and re-
quiring her to come for it herself. She complied,
and on entering the public-house he knocked her
down, and for some time she was insensible. When
she recovered she went to her mother, and had not
since cohabited with the respondent. He want to
her mother's after her and threatened her life. A
policeman was sent for,,and a large carving-knife
was taken forcibly from him. He subsequently
contracted an improper intercourse with a female
named Sarah Dowset, with whom he cohabited.
The evidence as to the name of this female was
defective, and the case was ordered to stand over.
WARNER V. WARNER.

This was a petition for divorce by the wife, on
the ground of her husband's cruelty and adultery,
and there was no appearance on behalf of the
respondent.

The respondent was described as a retired draper,
and the marriage was solemnised on the 17th of
July, 1854. The parties cohabited at Nether
Borough and other places in Leicestershire, and
there was one child issue of the marriage. Amongst
the acts of cruelty deposed to were holding the
petitioner down while he spat tobacco into her
mouth. On one occasion he was sentenced to six
months' imprisonment for ill-treating her, and in
1860 she was obliged to leave him.
The Court pronounced the decree nisi, with costs.
Dr. Phillimore, Q.C., and Dr. Pritchard were
counsel for the petitioner.
There were two other cases disposed of, but the
details were uninteresting. _

JULY 24.

HARRIS V. HARRIS AND PAUL.

In this case, which has been recently fully re-
ported, an application made on behalf of the co-
respondent, that he should .be dismissed from the
suit, as no case had been established against him—
which the Court granted.
Dr. Spinks, on the part of the co-respondent,
moved the Court to order his client costs.

Mr. Luttler, for the petitioner, opposed the appli-
caticn, on the ground that the co-respondent's con-
duct led to the suit.
Sir C. Cresswell decided that the costs for the co-
respondent must be a sequitur on his dismissal from
the suit.

The Emperor on Sunday evening honoured with
his presence a ball given by the officers of the
Grenadiers of the Guard now at Vichy. Dancing
took place on the grass, a large tent, however,
having been erected for the Imperial quadrille.
His Majesty arrived as the shades of night were
falling, and appeared in excellent health and spirits.

His Majesty and Madame de Sonnaye, wife of the
colonel ; a sub.officer and the Countess Walewska ;
a fourrier and the Countess de la Bedoyere ; a cor-
poral and the Countess Litta ; a private soldier and
the Countess Lehon ; another private soldier and a
young English lady, and two other soldiers with
young ladies of Vichy. This arrangement was
suggested on the spot by the Emperor to do honour
to the Guard, and the quadrille went off in most
admirable order. A little after the quadrille the
Emperor retired, and general dancing then com-
menced, and was kept up with great spirit till
