ADVICE FROM THE PopE.-The Rome

ADVICE FROM THE PoPE.-The Rome
correspondent Of the London Daily
News, telegraphing Sunday, says;
According to news received at TIE
Vatican the Queen Regent agrees with
the Pope as to the necessity of doing
every thing possible to avoid the risk
OF wsr in which Spain has all to 10; Q
and nothing to gain. Still it is difficult
to find formula to allow Spain to re-
nounce sovereignty over Cuba.
The Pope has renewed his efforts 10
convince the Madrid government that
although it may be painful to abandon
the island, it is not dish0norable, Spain
yieldiag to superior force, while with
war Cuba would hardly be the only
possession lost, and if others went in
ternal troubles would be Inevitable.
At the Vatican it - said that Austria
and England have acted on the sam o
lines, encouraging Spain to submit to
the inevitable and abandon Cuba. They
cite the recent example of Greece,
which rejected the disinterested advice
OF the powers.
The Rome correspondent of the Lon.
don Daily Mail, tels graphing Monday,
says
Archbishop ireland cabled to the

hopes that his efforts for the preserva-
ton of peace will be crowned with sue

the greatest obstacle in bis path is IT, IT,

discussing the advisability of offering
their pacific mediation in the contro-
