Year: 1860

Let take our attention off the disgraceful con-
duct Of Congress and speed the blue ocean
wave to the Old World How fares it? Bad enough,
indeed but we think they settlement
than they have been, even whiis wars red banner
streamed the dead and dying of the Sardin an
and French alliance.


Great talk has been made about the ''Peace Con-
gress.. 1t would be peace Congress with ven
gence, l. e. only piece of Europe would enter such
an assembly. And why? Simply because his holiness
the Pope, has been grievously insulted by a pam
phlet issued from the French press limiting his
temporal power to very small compass. This
pamphlet is said to oe the production of the cunning
Napoleon ILL., whose keen eye is ready to detect
and whose subtle character is awa US on the alert
to make strike for No l. This little book has
created quite great stir in Europe as the infa-
nous production of renegade Southern man has
done in America. Austria is indignant Russia is
sorely vexed, Naples is unruly in the traces an d
the Holy Father not find words sufficient to
express his horror


The tenor of this book is certainy humiliating to
the Pope, because it alleges that his temporal au-
thorty should only extend to the city of Rome and
not beyond 1t, contending that Romagna and the
other little provincals seeded by the peace of Villa
Franco should not be transferred by the proposed
Congress-, to the of Rome.


There can scarcely be any doubt of the fact that
Napoean should be consdeaed the principal author
of this book, from the fact that its whole tenor is
opposed to the obsolete doctrine of the divine
right of Kings"


| This doctrine Is strenuously opposed by Austria
Russia, Naples and the Pope, hence the determi
nation of all OF these powers, not to the pro-
posed Congress until tie pamphlet is denounced by
the Paris Court. This has not b9en done, but on
| the contrary, Waewsky, who was the prime Minis
ter at Paris has been removed account it is said
of his opposition to the doctrines of that book 1t
must have been something extraordinary that wo lld
cause Napoleon to dismiss from so high authority
a man so celebrated and who is Of his own blood.
Walewsky is a first cousin of the present Emperor,
being natural son of Napoleon the Great or l. by
Polish Countess.


The upshot OF the whole, it is evident, will be the
non assembling Of any peace Congress, and France
will leave the Italians to pursue the policy of the
Kansas Nebraska bill, 'settle their difficulties
in their way. With the direct understanding
by France and England, that, if any other power
should interfere to the dsparagement of the Italian
cause they will take up the sword. From present
appearance, it is evident that Italy will again
be at war, Sardinia and Naples already growing
at each other and will dou bless pitch in.


Since the above written later intelligence from
Europe confirms our opinion.


A New BRANCH OF STUDY.-A friend travelling
recently in the country, overheard couple Of new
ly married folks reading to each other advertise
ment of school, in which the various branches of
study and the prices of each enumerated. !
he naturally surmsed that they prudently

n.y. they would have for schools But he was
oaVer'eo 1rom this train of thought by hearing one
oi 'hen read the phrase contingent Fund, so
cen's' innocently inquired what kind of a study
was .ha' 10 which the other gravely replied, that
she did mt know!
