Victor Fournel thus compares the Q7,irinal
and Vatican palaces in their present condi-
tion:
Let me compare whas has happened to the
Quirinal with what remains of the Vatican.
When the Italians stole the keys of the Quiri-
nal, they treated the Pope's venerable furnitare
with contempt, and sent it back to him. Then
they TUNED the Quirinal into a vast boudoir.
When you visit 1T the King of Italy's servants
show yoa over tie gorgeous chambers, which
now filed with the most elegant modern
furniture and cooveniences. They make you
feel how soft and luxurious are the silken OF
tomans; they call your attention to the huge
mirrors, aod turn en- their pivots the Numerous
statues of Venus and the lime Muses. which
adorn, or rather disgrace with their nudity,
those once sacred chambers, where holy con-
chapel and On to the balcony whence the Popes
used to give their Senedicticn to the world.
These remain ss they were in the days of Plus
TX. But tura your back upon them and look
into the chambers. What q terrible contrast.
The rooms are furnished like thoee of Madame
de Pompadour, and arp as full OF knick-kuacks
and frivolitiee as the chambers of a Partisan
Aspasia.
Let us go the Vatican. All remains uu
changed here. At the foot of the Scala Regia,
the finest sta:5oase iE the world, guardsmen
and Swiss guards, wearing costumes of the
Renaissance, are groEped aboat in the most
picturesque manner, jnst they were N the
days of Leo X. and Jrlius II. The furniture
is ancieut, bat eplendid and acoords with the
traditions of this wonderful palace. In the
long marble corridors you meet prelatss in
flowing robes of scarlet and purple, and private
chamber laus in costumes of bla2k velvet At
any minute you would not be surprised il some
grand door was thrown open to admit Leo K,

CATHOLIC NEwsrArERs.-We commend
the following, which we find in the Lon
Tablet of the 2Sth ult., to the attention OF
our co religionists
"The proceedings at the Catholic Con-
gress of Poitiers, which commenced its
sitting last week, included report sent
by NJ. Baudon, the President General OF
the Society of st. Vincent de Paul, on the
duties of Catholics towards the press. M.
Baudon dwelt on the melancholy fact of the
insufficient support given by Catholics
generally to their own newspapers and peri
odicals. They have these publications alone
to look to for the defence of their most
cherished principles against the attacks 80
continually made upon them by sectariaDs
and unblieyers, and yet, strange to say, they
are content for the most part to leave the
organs of their own body in a pTocarious
positiOn-a position of inferiOrity to their
opponents, the narrowness of their re
sources crampiug their efforts both as to the
obtaining of early authentic intelligence,
aud as to the employment of superior lit.
erary talent. On the other hand, the Cath
olic public (said NJ. Baudou) is very exact
ing in it's requirements from Catholic news.
| papers, and is very severe on any mistakes
or shortcomings of which they may be
thought guilty. At the same time, Catho.
| lies too often support with their money the
hostile press, uuder the excuse Of wanting
to know what the other side has t.
say. 1t is not considered that if the
same support were given to Catholic
journals they would be at once placed
in a position that wOuld enable then
to compete upon much more equal termr
with their adversaIies, and to support th'
Catholic cause with far greater efficiency
than they can possibly do at present. NJ
BauGon concluded his report with an urgent
appeal-which was heartily Joined in by
the Congress-to Catholics to exert them
selves to the utmost in supporting and in
creasing the circulation of Catholic jour
! nails"

chivairy Of the Grand Army Under ths Great Ns-
polson.

The picked French troops of Napoleon g
army says the AthenGwn in a review of the
"RecollectiOns of Colonel de Gonueville,' y
were inspired by feeling of honour
worthy OF the most chivalrons times. An
instance OF this is recorded by Colonel de
bonneville. His general had been NOR
tally wounded at the passage of the Piave.
twenty i've Grenadiers of the 62nd Regi-
ment were ordered to carry the General to
Ireviso. They were sulky at being sent to
the rear when their regiment was going into
action -
I'VE had three long leagues to go at mid
day IN great heat. The Grenadiers relieved
one another, by turns, marching quietly,
with the greatest carefulness when carry
ing their load, making no complaints of
the weight or of the heat of the SUD, or of
the dust that blinded them. They per
formed their duty conscientiously; but
from their silence and the detection of
their looks, it was easy to see that they re-
gretted the danger from which they were
removed.
Their task being accomplished, General
d'Avenay, thoughtful of others in tue midst
of his sutferiDgs, desired his aide. de camp
to give the Grenadiers some money. They
unanimously refused to accept the El6 OF
fered them-"and it was not without
long contest, having persuaded them that
the General would be panied and wounded
by their refusal, having called them my
comrades and friends, and shaken their
hands, that l managed to overcome their
resistance, and they took it, leaving me
with the feeling that it was condescension
on their part"
The aide de-camp, by the Generals de-
sire ordered them dinner, for which they
expressed their thanks:-
"a few minutes afterwards, saw them
altogether in conversation in the court. l
went down to know what they were wait
for and / lnarnt hot had
sidered that honour would not allow them
to sit down at table while their comrades
were fighting"
This time shey were infexible, and
they could only be prevailed upon to take
with them on their return to the field of
battle few loaves and bottles of wine.
"rhey started at once. 1t was Ave in the
evening and probably they had not eaten
sinee the night before" When We find
that he possessed such soldiers as these,
Gays the Atheneum, We cease to be aston
ished at Napoleon's feats.
