tory and anecdOle from Josephus to 10 Miller, tor
any intcnser joke than this.
The Pope, like Austria and Turkey, ia very short
Of funds. In one curious pccuniary respect be Is
worse off than they; while they are ha'dly bested
to keep their own political cracked PDt a-poihhg'
Kirg Plus has tn pay for himself aBd Victor Eman-
uel " f. has offered to nay his territorial share
of the interest on the general debt of the Papal
States. p can't accept the financial arrangement,

so.cailed Great ones of the world that is coupled
with any pact or condition; does not mind accepting
unconditional contributions from Catholic Powers,
and especially commends the hurrylng up OF Peters

butcn does not, will not cannot suffice Tor the
wants Of State Treasury. 1t might be enough
for the wants of the Episcopal Piimate of the
Catholic world bat will not save iandess Italian
Prince from bankruptcy. If the very venerable,
sincere, devOut Pope Plus could only nd himself
fr IN bis quite ridiculous blind, laundering d0ppd
eapccr his worser half, King Plus, he would see
this in an instant. He is the Spiritual Sovereign OF
many millions Of suljects-Of 200 millions say
some. quite disregardful of statistics. They make

weathiest and most populOus of Catholic countries
IT has been Il oroughy enough canyassed by his par
tisans-Pshops journalists, religious sisters, whose
Intellectual ability and zeal have been boldly put to
| his service. 1t has furnished for that service
| handful Of brave young Lcgitimists TO his army,
| and far ess than tbe product Of the French TO-
| bacco monopoly to his treasury. The boys have
been beaten and the money spent in the useless de-
| fence of the wrongs of the Prince-POpe, tor the
| saving of whose temporal estates not ono million
ont of the nine million adult Frenchmen would

4 week ago TO-DAY religious services ere held IN
th Cathedral Of NOtre Dame, for the repOse Ufthe
| souls Of General PlmOoan and other French dead
| of the PoLtiGcal army. They were attended by
one thousand persons (hs is tho largest estimate
Of friendly impartial repOrters) out of Paris pop,
| ulatlon Of one and half millions Say one-third
of these were curious spectators aud police tples,
the other two thirds the Paris contingent OF sincere
mOuTnefs and political demonstrators. This gives
the measure of the national importance of the polit-
cal P8pa party in France. Its simply legltlmlsn,
whose political force in France is even less than ITS
numerical force ST all as that is would seem to
Indicate The FaubouTg st German was sadly
yexed that the Cardnal-SenatOrl Imperial AlinOnef-
Archbishop of Paris would lead the poitco-relgious
performances with sermon OF his own. Some OF
It's dcnizens went to Orleans the following Tuesday
| of similar performances in the Cathedral there.
Throughout France the ultramontane prelates have
| been making the most cO-reigOus capital pos
eibe out Of the departed souls Of the fallen at the
| battle of Castelfdardo. II does not amount to an
| important sum. Not the mass OF the people, not
even the mass Of deyOut Catholics invest their inter-
| eSts in 1t.
! think you may rely upon it, that Napoeons
policy toward the Pope is not seriously embarrassed
by the pOlticO.religiOus "pubhc opinion of France

Pope himself who checks bin with the ris iReri9 Of
his non possumus. The Pope etOlidly stationary in

Ike prasshOpper, to Austria, Belgium, Spain or
Bavaria won't come TO France if he help it) is
still burden of care. And so Plus waits and Ma
| pOeOn dances attendance upon Providence and
events; and all the crowned Micsubers of Europe
wait for something to turn up, which seems likely
enough Just TO be the under side Of the balances
of power in Europe; dead Turkey kicking the
BEAM say, ard the Gallo sword as Of old thrown in
| for o mdke-Weight.
| You have heard more than enough of Garibaldian
genealogies, deduced from Irish, American, aud
| &c man vain imagiDations or lying hoaxes. Hero
is one on the literary French side, perfectly legit

There is more gift; really very curously apt

The practical carrying ont of rather quaint
proposition, set forth by a clerico-legtmist journal

scriptions for Garibaldi and for Dc FlOtte's mOnu

There is national shOoting-maich going on in
these days out at ViDcennes 1t is not Government
| affair, but private speculation under semi-Oicia
patronage that promises to be profitable if the
weather does not prevent attendance. The dis
charge Of all sorts Of firearms and Of bOwarrows is
| permitted and invited. The targets for arms de
| precision are ct 40 meters, cay la yards; for
| fowlng pieces ard others, 100 meters distance.
Highest prize 100000; numerous other prizes;
shoot as many times YOU choose TO pay for; con-
sequeLtly, prize no satisfactory proof of marks

crowd, and enliven the scene when It does not rain,
it has done three out Of the xix days since the

The belated vintage is now going on, proving in
some Of the southern districts Of the wine country
not quite as bad as was feared. Excessive autumn
nal rains have prevented the harvested grain from
drying, and rendered the preparations for Autumn
sowing difficult for the farmers Tie chestnut crop
