The PIeslScite 10 Rome,

y p.
Fifty thousand to fifty is the reported vote
Of the people Of st. Peters patrmony on the
question, Is it desirable that Rome and the
Papal States shall be transferred to the tenn
poral government Of the kingdom Of Italy?
Fifty thousand to fifty the Pope's people vote
yes. This means that they have had enough
ofChurch and State under one head. and that
they ioyfully seize the first opportunity to
relieve the Holy Father of the great trouble
he has had in managing their temporal affairs.
II means that the dogma Of papal infallibility
is accepted by the people Of the States Of the
Church as signiiying nothing, at least in tenn
poral affairs and il means that the people Of
Rome have an idea that their temporal and
spiritual prosperity WILDE greatly promoted by
the change in their temporal government that
Rome, they think, as the capital Of Italy, will
soon become ilourishng and populouas city,
and that all classes of the city and the States
concerned win share in this prosperity. These
are doubtless the opinions which have ope-
rated to bring out this vote of fifty thousand
to fifty for Rome as the Italian capital for
they are opinions universally entertained, and
we have no doubt they will prove well
founded.
We congratulate the people of Rome on
their transfer to young Italy, the people OF
Italy on their great acquisition, and the Holy
Father on his release from his expensive and
troublesome temporalities.

Now THAT THE POLITICAL CAMPAIGN is
fairly opened, the partisan press and profess
sional politicians are beginning 10 overhaul
their vocabularies to find the most opprobrious
cpithets with which to assal their opponents.
The vile terms Of ''liar, thief, embezzler, y
''defaulter' come as regularly with the return
of the electioneering season as wild ducks do
in the fall In both cases-the small politicians
and the fat ducks--they are fit game for honest
shareholders aH either aide.

The Eastern question looms up anew in an
important telegram from st. Petersburg an
nouncing that the newspapers Of that city ara
unanimous In urging settlement of the oues-
ton which led to the Crimean war and the
abrogation of the treaty of Paris which re-.
suited from 1t. The same telegram adds that
according to the diplomatis.s, Gor.schakofY is
bent upon speedily upsetting that treaty, and
that TINS solution has probably been peaceabIy
determined upon by him and Bismarck. What
ever may DO the intention of the Russian GOV
eminent the Russians themselves ara mani
testify disposed to seize the splendid ornor-
Mnity which the Franco-Prussian war now
offers for recovering the strip Of territory in
Bessarabia and the naval preponderance on tho
Black Sea which Russia lost by the terms OF
the treaty of 1856. But Great Britain, az one
of the sgners ofthat treaty-the fruit OF two
years war that cost, at q rough estimate,
eighteen hundred million dollars, and that
was undertaken in 1854 by France, England.
Sardinia and Turkey, on the ground that the
existence Of the latter empire and the equili-
brium Of Europe were endangered by Russia--.
Great Britain cannot fail to protest against =
revival of the Eastern question and solution
which might ultimately involve the loss of her
remote possessions in the East. Thus the
military movements and the political intrigues
now actively in progress in Russia may yet
stimulate the British Ministry to change their
attitude of neutrality, and may hasten the con-
clusion Of the terrible war which is being
waged between Prussia and France

LOUIS NAPOLEON has stated his ultimatnm

between France and Germany, the war to be
closed by France giving indemnity and dis

The Law Courts.

The summer sOlstice invariably brings to
the judges of our courts much needed rest
and an allotted time for regeneration In
the past vacation time" was eagerly taken
advantage Of; but not nnfrequently, through
pressure of shack work, judges were con-
strained to make arrangements among them
selves by which for one season at least some
member of particular bench was compelled
to sacrifice himself for the public good and to
be in attendance in chambers throughout the
whole summer. Under TIE Judiciary amend
ment to the rejected constitution the members
of the bench of the Court Of Common Pleas
and the Marine Court were increased, and in
the case Of the latter court extended jurisdiction
was provided for by the Legislature, which
gave relative relief to all the higher courts.

talented and capable lawyers. To the Marine
Court were elected Judges J. =. Joachimsen,
W. H. Tracy and George Shea, highly re-
spected in the legal profession before their
election. and possessing In an envable degree
The esteem aud confidence Of the bar
and of the citizens generally. The
term now opened will give work
enough for all, the calendars in each
court being unusually heavy. The ''dredg-
ing" criminal court Of the city and county.
howeyer-the Court Of General Sessions
with but very brief interval, has been in
session unremittingly throughout the summer,
and Judge Bedford, presiding, has done the
State good service in wedding out some of the
worst criminals in the community.
The several judges are now at their respec-
tive posts, and will enter on their duties with
all necessary despatch. Judge McCunn, Of
the Superior Court, after his little brush with
his anti-Fenian friends over the water, puts in
an appearance on this side, hearty and muscu-
lar as II his assailants came out Of the little
fray only second best, and he, like another
Antaus, had gained strength by a temporary
discontinue. The composition and morale Of
the Judiciary OF our city and county courts is
now such that the community may rest per-
fectly satisfied that with efficient police regl-
lations crime and outrages OF every descrip-
ton shall be suppressed with strong hand,
and the amplest enjoyment of life and pro-
perry secured to all.
