Irollope, is thoroughly interesting
paper, well written, and containing
much information on Italian subjects

ludicrous, sentimental adventure. The

PARIS, July 8, 1874.
The Count de Chambord has issued the following

pedlents OF safety. The country now seems 10 be
on the eve OF fresh dangers. France has need OF
Goyalty. NV birth made me your King Iwould

am aware Of the accusations against me. l have
remained silent in order not to add to the difiicu
sizes OF the illustrious soldier who protects you
Because OF the accumulation OF errors and false
hoods silence Is no longer permissible. Per-
eons have pretended to understand from
previous declarations that placed the
royal power above the laws and dreamed
OF unheardof governmental combinations
based upon absoutism and arbitrary ideas. The
French Christian monarchy is a limited monarchy
An its very essence. IL bOrrOws nothing from gov
ernments OF fortune which promise boundless
prosperity and lead TO ruin.
This limited monarchy admits OF the existence
OF two chambers one nominated by the King and
the other elected by the nation, according to
Illegally established suffrage.
The union OF the people and the King enabled
the ancient monarchy to Illustrate for centuries
tine calculations OF those seeking to domineer
.over the people by contending against the King.
Ut Is untrue that nv policy is at variance with the
aspirations OF the country. We both desire
the strong reparative powers which q durable
alliance with the monarchy alone can give.
wish the representatives OF the nation to be
vigllant au xiliaries for the examination OF ques
Eaons submitted TO them, but win not have barren
parliamentary struggles, from winch the sovereign
often issues poweress and weakened.
In rejecting the foreign ana imported formula,
with its King who regns, but does not govern, l
1eel myself In harmony with the immense majority

is sincerely reconced. Let there be q truce 10

ENGLAND.
The National Policy Towards the Brussels Con-
gress-IS the Gear Of Russia
Sincere Friend!

LONDON. July 8, 1874
In the House Of Lords tonight the Earl OF Den
bigh asked whether England was to be repre-
scented in the Brussels Congress. He said the
papers relating thereto had an underhand appear
ance. The programme Of the so-caed Universal
Society indicated that 1t was primarily designed
to promote humanity, particularly in relation to
the treatment OF prisoners or war. 1t now ap-
peared that the Emperor Of Russia fathered the
whole anair. The programme contained articles
dealing with every contingency of war. Some OF
the proposed rules might cripple naval action.
The Earl OF Derby Secretary oil State for the
Foreign Department, replied that the feeling OF
uneasiness was not all unnatural or unfounded,
and he was glad OF an opportunity to say some
thing to dispel it. The British government had
deferred It's answer to the invitation to
participate in the Congress until the latest mo-
ment II mad given no particular encouragement
to the project; but as all the great European Pow
ers had consented to take part in Congress
which aimed at the mitigation OF suffering, 1t was
thought that an absolute and unconditional re-
fusal would be liable to misrepresentation. ana
the government had. therefore, decided to accept
she invitation, STIMULATING that England was not
