THE STATE OF EUROPE.
From Our Own corTespODdens.


TURIN, August 6, 1861,
The Roman question may soon approximate
ISOLATION by the open hostility eyinced by the
Papal Government toward Napoleon and Italy,
Since the ex.King of Naples has chosen Rome
for his residence; the Papal Court has become
fhe center Of the Legitimists, and OF conunu-
Gus conspiracy against the French Emperor anu
the King of Italy. The riches OF the FRENCH
Legitimists are, under the name Of st. feters
pence. flowing into the Romsn treasury, mach

discord in France. But Victor Emanuei |" ieS'
satisfied with those maDeuvers, since an "'

dni has already displayed such force and vigor that
fh insurrecon has lost of its gravity, though
it is not yet completely quelled.
But MonsgnOr Merode, the Belgian Archbishop,
who is now the Pope's War Minister measures the
Naooltan troubles, not according to their result,
but according TO his efforts and consequently really
believes that the restoration is at hand. lie there

sisted upon the rendition of o Roman gendanne

and uttered words insulting TO Napoleon. Upon
this Goyon fc.cd up and said that it was the Minis

care After such scene IT was expected that
Merode would not remain any longer IN the Minis
try; but the Pope refused to dismiss him. 1he
next sequel was that the French had two ex-chiefs
OF the Neapohtan police-Merenda and DeGlorgls-
arrested who were Just busy in fitting out o new
band of 200 men to be sent across the frontier 20
The Abruzzi; the expedition broken up. The
French papers speak freely of the scandaous scene
between Merode and GoyOn, and the msolence OF
The Papal Minister may soon become the last
feather breaking the camels back, and lead to the
evacuation of Rome by the French garrison.
But If the Papal cause, as regards the temporal
power is rather desperate, we cannot say that
fhirgs are i0urishing in Italy. Cavours death has
left void which is not yet filed, and. though The
loan of $3.50 eco 0G0 readily subscribed, every
body feels that the Ministry is too weak for ITS task;
she armaments proceed very slowly, ana there Is
little hope of seeing the army increased to 3t0OOO
men before Spring Now, unless the forces Of
Italy attain that number, wal-agamst Austria for
the pOssessiOn of NeDeta is impossible and unless
yenetia is taken and Italy extended to the Alps, all
the new acquisitions remain in continual danger,
Auetria's position is, however, still more desper-
A.e. The Council Of the Empire cannot complete
itself: tho CrOatians have, by formal vote OF the
Diet refused to send Deputies 10 Vienna, while
Hungary becomes, from day TO day, more hostile.
In a few days probably after tomorrow, the Diet
will discuss the naughty, vapid, and ll-aGvised I'm
perial answer, and Deak's eo4ueDce viii once more
electrify 0 Europe by expOunding the true princi-
pes OF the Hungarian Constitution, and exposing
The blunders and il-win of the Austrian Ministry.
In the hereditary provinces, too the discomfort
ls on the increase. Not only the BOhemians and
Galicans, but the Tyrolese aud Upper Austrions
begin to be excited about the Viennese eentraf-
gaton, the Diet Of Istria dissolved because the
Istrans refused to elect members TO Vienna, Nene-
tia ia held only by the sword Dalmatia keeps aloof,
and Transykania is prey to anarchy, the AUSTRIAN
administration being abolished, while the HuDga-
ran one is not yet organized. Under such circum'
stances aggravated by the financial distress, Fran
.is Joseph tries to arrive at an arrangement with
The Car of Russia, bat the attempt to recrganlze
fhe Holy Alliance has failed until now.
The Russian Empire, however, is likewise III
rather critical position. The ill-uiOrmed peasants
are in open revolt against their landlords in about
q provinces; Poland is in fermentation; and
conspiracy has been detected at St Petersburg. The
Gircassians, too, have risen, and defeated the Rus
aaDs in three battles; While the finances OF the
Empire continue to be in a most lamentable state.
The German papers are occupied with cOnjectures
about the motives and possible results of the King
OF Prussia's visit to Napoleon at the camp of
ChalOns. The National Society, protected by the
Duke Of CobRrg, continues TO agitate for the union
of Germany aud the Southern princes cOnspre
openly against Prussia in the interest Of Austria
Thus we see for 1862 many seed Of great ques-
tons, which may grow up into wars and revolutions
before long.
