THE POPE AND TIE EMPEROR IN IRE
LAND.

pected quarter should delay the restoration of Mr.
John Mitchell to his native Ireland II Erin de-
sres the return to her green embrace of this much
injured son of hers there are few persons In this
| land of his adoption but would lameot anything
likely to hinder or defeat so ausPicieus an event.
But the divisions of that unhappy country which
| caused the discontinue Of the scheme oil emancl-
| patton of this unucky patriot though fortified by
his new system Of vitriolic tactics, and bis Danish
mept TO a penal settlement, from which, however,
| he easily escaped by breaking through the paper
chain of his parol with which the Saxon thought to
hold him-those same divisions, we say, seem to
threaten fresh obstacles in the way Of his conquest
of Ireland. The alliance it is understood he went
TO form with Louis Bonaparte for this purpose, like
the one propose by The Richmond Enquirer for the
IMMIGRATION of Slavery after the Union is dissolved
does not seem likely to be received with that uDan
| nous enthusiasm by his countrymen which such a
stroke of diplomatic craftsmanship should naturally
excite. Mr.. Mitchell being Protestant Irishman,
| az was the man "whO led the British armies, and
who "led the British Senate" in our old-fashioned
| School Speaker, may not have duly calculated the
| disturbance which the Catholic element may intro
iuce into his best-lad plans. But it looks now az
| if it might make them "gang ajee," as those of
| mice and men have done before them.
In point of fact the Emperor Bonaparte is not in
the odor of sanctity or good odor of any kind, with
the Irish Catholics, just now. They have been
| holding great meetings, almost riyaling IN size the
Monster Meetings of OConnells day, at various
places in the south of Ireland for the purpose OF
holding up the hands of the Holy Father at Rome
in the peril he is now in among false brethren or
undutful children At one of these, at Killarney,
/ DR.. Moriarty, Roman Catholic Bishop, read an
extract from letter from distinguished ecclesas-
tic, probably Cardinal Antonell, at the Court Oh
| Rome in which he expressed himself IN these en-
phatc terms: /" The Emperor will do nothing TO
assist in aueling the revolution he has excited.
4" He will allow no intervention in favor OF the
"Pope; while be allows the Intervention OF all the
I" Mazzinians, Red Republicans, and Socialists OF
| Europe, to keep up and cOnsummate this wicked
revolt against the Head of the Church" Such
text and the comments it naturally drew FORTH were
not of nature to concihate friendly relations be-
tween the defeated Irish rebels, whe almost to
man Catholics, and the crowned consprator of the
Second Oi december. AT DTOgntua: Dlsnop bAon,
after denouncng the alienation of the ROmagna from
the Papal domination, should it be permitted by the
| Congress of Paris, as the most sacrlegious and
atrocious robbery history will have to record pro.
phesies that if BOnaparte permits this crime 10 be
perpetrated, his fall is at hand. Such are the
priestIy blessings which he receives as his reward
for having upheld the Papa throne by hs bayonets
for the last ten years. but they not precisely OF
| the kind that must consecrate the banners of an
| army of deverance from English supremacy. The
hereto Queen is not worse, surely, than the rene
| gsde Emperor. Mr.. Mitchell will have to wait a
| LITTLE we imagine.
| Meetings of this character have been held in
| Cbarlevllle, Cloyne, Clonmel and many other
places, and, doubtless, express the sense of the
| Utramontsnists of the Irish Church. 1t is salts
factory TO know, however that the fools are not all
dead yet in the first flower of the earth ard first
gem of the sea. That generation, which it is to be
hoped is never entirely to cease from off the earth,
has lot left itself without witness even in the bosom
of the Irish Catholic priesthood. AT chapel
| meeting in Cloyne, certain Father Fielding was
found, more Ghibbeline than Guelph in his proclv
| tiles, who held rather TO the Emperor than to the
| Pope. Without any notice taken Of the threatened
spoation Of the patrimony of st. Peter, through
the completely of the former, he intimates that Ma
poleou III. would be welcomed by the Irish people
| if he should step over at any moment And he
| affirms that the British Government knows that
| the French Government would be as acceptable to
| the Irish people as the present one. And yet he
complains that the only fault of the Irish is that
| they are too loyal" How this clergyman can
| reconcile his political preference for the Emperor
with his ecclesiastical duty toward the Pope is
question for him 10 settle with his own conscience
and HIS ecclesiastical superors. But We think he
must be man after Mr. Mitchels own heart, and
would recommend him for the post of Chaplain-in-
Chief to the Army of Invasion, as soon as it is
organized aud ready to begin operations.
But there is yet greater obstacle In the
way of Mr.. Nitchel's triumphant entry into
Dublin, after the expulsion of the Lord-Lieu-
tenant and the overthrow Of the Saxon dom-
nation, and that is the growing prosperity and
| good government of the island. Goblet used to
say that you can't make fellow with full belly
rebel and this method of cure for rebellion has now
| been in constant and improving operation in Ire
land for the last ten years. The reduction of the
pauper population by the famine and the consequent
emigration has brought the labOring class within
| manageable limits. The Encountered Estates

mortgages, entails, and settlements with which the
land was tied up, and thus thrown great numbers
