TWEEN THE POPE AND HIS ENE
FLORENCE, September 1S.-An Off
cial dispatch from the headquarters of
the Italian army of occupation in the
Roman country, at Monte ROtOndo,
of the 1Tth, says: Baron Won Arnem
came to General Cardorur's quarters
by the authorization of the Pope, to
explain that foreign military forces for
the moIhent ruled Rome and that his
Holiness was unable to offer resist
ance to the entrance of the italian
troops. He wished to know what
course Cardorur intended to take. The
General replied that his purpose was
fully set forth in the royal proclama-
tion. The King had shown great pa
tienee, but the fact that foreigners had
attempted to defend the city and rule
the Pope had tried their patience Sc
verely. Arnem begged a delay of "a
hours, that he might bring additional
influence to bear on the Pope. Cardo-
rur so far yielded as to suspend the at
tack on Rome "A hours, but reserved
the right to maneuvre his troops,
which now encircle the city.

"I had another conversation with
Bismarck this morning. He said posi-
/ lively the Prussian government will
not treat with any government not
recognized as de jltre, and that the
only government of that character in
| France known to Prussia is the gov
ernment of Napoleon or the Regency
acting in his absence. We do not
know, he adds, whether the whole of
France will recognize the republic.
How can we treat on so serious
matter with a provisional government
| which may be ,disavowed tomorrow.
l asked whether any English
diplomats had arrived at head
quarters to try Intervention. Il
have seen no diplomats was the
answer. He commented sharply on
| French treachery at Laon, saying the
place was capitulated and the Prus-
| Slams entered without any other oppo-
I sition than French artillery man,
| who blew up a powder magazine, kill
] ing himself and forty-lve Prussian
| Jaegers and more than three hundred
| Gardes Mobile. Shortly afterward /
met Count Hengell, ;. .Bismarck's coun-
selor. He expressed great anxiety
concerning the attitude Of the United
States now that the French had pro-
i claimed Republic, saying we are
anxious to have American sympathy
on our side, but we can't treat with
such a Republic as this. .,..r
