1t is seriously believed that M. Saconi, Pa
pal Nuncio to the Tuilleries, has seen the last
OF the Imperial Court, at least IN the char
acter of representative Of the holy Father.
Indeed, according TO present appearances,
His Holiness will soan be relieved from the
trouble and expense Of having representa-.
tives at any court. What passed at the nu.
dience between the Emperor and the Naucio
was, it appears, edifying enough. AS might
be expected, the Emperor expressed oil his
sympathy for the Pope, and his hopes tina.
His holiness will come out triump ant from
bis present trials. This was extreme good
nature, when We remember the way In which
the Pope characterized the celebrated bro.
chure, and NJ. Saconi was hardly courteous
as to even seem to accept these good wishes
as genuine.
