your attention upon them. You, who, by
giving your benedicton to Italy, have in the
, face of the world associated her cause with
that of religion, will now perceive that your
mpcral power isdirectly involved in the des-
TIMES of our common fatherland. And IL will
be the greatestglory of your pont1ficate, if in
the midst of the tempests now preparing in
Europe, Italy, avoiding the evils that may re-
suit from them, is capable of preserving inter
ing her indie 2endence., Such is the faith your
f subjects have in your Intentions, that they are
convinced you will confirm in this moment OF
trial the universal opinion of your wisdom and
magnanimity,"
The journals Of Rome publish the following
reply of the Bope to an address of the munich
pality, calling for constitutional, institutions,
f l'and guarantees:
"The events which follow precipitately and
in rapid succession, sufficiently justify the de-
mand which you, Signor Senator, addressed 10
me in the name of the magistrates and council.
1t is well known that am increasingly engag
/ ed in giving to the government that force
which you. gentlemen demand, and which
nations require. But every one understands
the serious difficulty with which ne, who is
invested with two great dgnities, has to con-
tend. What IN secular government may be
I done In night, cannot be effected In the pom

/ ton, since it is very difficult to trace exactly
the line which shall distinguish one power
from the other; nevertheless, | fatter myself
that in few deys, the work being completed,
| shall be able to announce the new form of
government which will obtain general salts
faction and more particularly that of the Sem
ate and Council, who are more minuteiy ac-
quainted with the circumstances and the posi-
ton of the country. May God bless these my
desires and labors, and, if conducive to the
welfare of religion, shall stay at the foot Of
the crucifix to offer up thanks for all the events
Providence has allowed to take place, whilst
not as much as Prince but as head of the uni
versal Church. shall be content if they contri-

| Prussia HAMBURG, March l6.-1n Berlin as well
in Vienna there have occurred disturbances OF tho
public peace that threaten to take very alarming
| turn. s---t
At the former place there had been going on, dur
ing the asiew days, very lively agitation to get up
petitions to the King praying tor liberty OF the press
and other reforms already granted by most OF the 9th
er German governments. Not only was the town
council of Berlin debating on petition of this sort,
but several meetings had been held for the pur-
pose under the tents in the 1hiergarten, or park,
where large of people took place on Mon
day last. The police and the gendarmes having in
vain tried to disperse the crowd which, however, in
way disturbed the public peace, the garrison
called out, and when the people returned from the
park they found the streets and the squares hronged
with troops. Towards O'Clock in the evening the
gard du corps, (cuirassiers and the dragons began
TO clear the square before the palace and though
resistance ook place on the part OF the people, the
troops rode through the people without any concern
for the personal safety OF individuals and made
of their weapons in such manner that several Were
wounded very severely and one ofthem MORALLY.
/ Towards midnight tranquility was restored. On
Tuesday these scenes were repeated and again
i eral persons were wounded and one killed on the
spot The people were again attacked by the troops
yesterday, evening" and according to the account
ceved by persons who arrived here this afternoon by
the railroad, the results have been disastrous
i 10 having been killed and about 100 wounded, while
the soldery said have suffered very severely
by the people throwing stones at them and awaiting
their attack behind some sort of barricades which
! impeded their progress.

We regret to state that blood has been shed at

noisy crowd having collected before the house of the
chief OF the police NJ Kampiz proceeded TO break his
windows. After wreaking their vengeance on this
obnoxious parsonage, the crowd would most proba-
bly, have retired quietly had the doors OF the arl
1 lery barracks been suddenly thrown open, whence
large body of that ssrvce issued with drawn sabres
and commenced furious onslaught on the mob
/ Many were severely wounded, and more severely
crushed and bruised III attempting TO escape from
their iiants. The condnct OF the artillery had
occasioned the greatest disgust, and general OUT
