ROMA July 2o 1871.
The atfalrs OF the Papal Court. and Its belongings
have been 80 long st a CRISIS, or rather nassIng
tarough series or rapidly succeeding crises, that
the most unforeseen event is. as It WERE anticipated
ana eSctes no surprise. 1t cannot be said at this
particular day and hour that the probability OF the
Holy Fathers departure from Rome bears about it
anything THAT might be twisted into what is called
news, md yet the latest and authentic version
OF thsJ almost WORKOUT rumor has enough IN IL TO
warrant my calling IL by that name The world has
known for some time past that
THE ISLAND or CORSICA
has been suggested ana even offered rs a place OF
refuge TO the dethroned Pontif in case revolution
airy violence should threaten, appears probable,
the precincts OF the Vatican. The Pope has long and
courageonsly held out against the prayers
or those who besought him 10 NY. It
has thought and felt that, Notwithstanding his
powerless position, his mere presence in Rome
was protection 10 his friends ana to the city
ITSELF But he has at length yielded so far TO
make selection OF his future retreat, whether
really with the intention OF gong there of simply
gratifying the afrectlonate soicitude or those
around him. 1t would appear that the island OF
Corsica has been selected. 10 is fact not known

THE FINE CHATEAU AT CoRTs,
OF which he is the possessor. NJ. Valery expressed
not only his perfect willingness to give up
his chateau for the purpose, but also
hts warm thanks for the honor done him
| In the selection. At this moment, and
OF course by the orders OF the proprietor extensive
preparations are making TO render the chateau
worthy OF Its illustrous guest This is all positively
true, but ls by no means guarantee that the Holy
Father desires to escape from his prison. Plus TX IL
