address to the European Powers Iustifying the
proceedings of the Roman Republicans. 1t con-
cludes as follows: ssAs long as the Pope showed
himself the friend of Italian Independence, the
Roman people stood by the Pope but when he
deserted that cause, his temporal sovereignty was
repudiated. 1t is well that Europe may have a
standard whereby to measure the destiny with
which the Roman Republic is threatened-a des-
tiny which the men who guide it will meet without
either presumption or fear, with the dignity of men

the temporal dominion of the Pope -

the Chambers; and having passed it, by a majority
of II TO Z, sent it up to the Peers This appears to
have been the signal for the dissolution. can
give you no idea (says our correspondent of the
sensation this act has created among the Deputies,
and thus infurated, they will return to the Pro-
vinces as so many firebrands to increase the excite
ment and discontent already prevailing there" He

RUSSIA.
The Emperor has issued a ukase to all the eff
cia departments, informing them that in the year
1919 they are not to present any petitions what
ever for an increase of salary or pecunlary as
sistance of any kind, because the country will
require extraordinary pecuniary resources for the
consolidation of the whole army. Whoever acts
contrary to this ukase is to be subjected to Sc
we're punishment. The ukase is one of immense
importance this moment for asprohibition of the
kind has not been known in the memory of man,
and clearly indicates that the Gar has very extern
sve projects, for the carrying out of which he is
reserving his finances. One OF the most important
tokens relative to measures about to be taken in
the present position of the affairs of the North, is
the fact that Russian squadron has already re-
ceived orders to cruise inihe East Sea.
