TIE PAPAL GUARANTEES.

ROME, Aug. 20.--The OGc;al Gazette saws !:
As anti-Papal agitation against the law for the Papal
guarantees continues, the Government deems IL ex-
pedent to make frank statement of its Views to dis

respects tho right Of public meeting
and petition, but considers that IL has
the right to Interfere with meetings which degenerate
into Illegal proceedings and jeopaIze public order and

lively protect the Popcs sccury and the independence

TRELAwNEY DEAD.
The death Of Trelawney, the friend of Byron and
Shelley, has passed Cor days unnoticed, most
people being unaware that so distinguished a sur
vlvor of Lord Byron's Crock enterprise was
among them. Trelawney was q good deal of
a rover; his books of adventure read like ORR
entail romances. He had great personal admiration
fer Shelley, but too severe Shelleys wife.
The lady doubtless uninteresting Sir Percy
Shelley never forgave him for the comments on his
mother.
THE AFRICAN COMPLICATIONS.
England still watches actively the movements in
North Africa. The prompt action of the ship Mon
arch respecting the outrage on the Susa is much a
proved Egypt drifts toward military despotism.
The worst kind of characterization on tho part of
the soldiers is stimulated by the Khedive for his own
purposes. England has already intervened in this
matter.

Notwithstanding repeated grants, Mr.. Goschen
remains $4,000 out of pocket by his Constantinople
mission; this he refuses to take.
THE BEACoNsFIELD MEMORIAL
The subscriptions to the public monument to
Lord BcaconSleld amount only to $4,000,
which disappoints the committee. The explanation
is that the movement was never really public nor
wholly aristocratic. The upper classes gave small
sums to encourage the people. The latter seeing the
matter entirely in the hands of the former, yer
contributed and, in fact asked. The
sum subscribed is sufficient and with better man
agemcnt, might have been more.
