IN ITALY, "Rome correspondence London Standard: A yery interesting and important decision has just been artivod at by the tribunal of Castrovillari, in contradiction to the view which had been ox- pressed by the Minister of Justice on the sub- | ject. Acortain priest of the name of Pierantonic | Vitalo wished to contract marriage, maintaining that, whatever the ecclesiastical laws. of the | Church might have to say against his doing theso were in no wise recognized ‘as { BO, land. ‘The Minister of Justice beld an opposite view, and decided that tho marriage could not be allowed to take place. Signor Vitale, how- ever, not contenting himself with this decision, has brought the matter before the ordinary trib- unal, which has decided that there is nothing to prevent, or’ to cause, any such marriage to be illegal. Of courge the civil contract only ia con- templated or referred to by any of the partica, Tue decision is, ae will at once be seon, a very | important one,—especially in the prosent condi | dered its sentence are very curiously and sng- | gestively illustrative of Italian habits of mind ; and of the prevailing views of the natare and | functions of the judicial office, Let the English reader consider the following extract from the : finding of the Court; | , The Signor Pierantonio Vitale, a priest without bene ; fico (senza tocazione), overcome by the great force cf | Frogress which is breaking tn, even over the altar, de termined to participate in family sights, and to unite himeeif by a legal tle to a girl 40 years old, of Rocca, Imperiale, An apostate rather than a hypocrite, bo | Wisbed to be a legal husband rather than an adulterer; ! tobe loyal to society aud to the State, rather than to dedicate himself to solitary selfishness and egotism ; to be the moral head of a family of his own, rather than be tho sacrilegious destroyer of the family of j Snother, After much redection, all donbt seemed to kim to be dissipated, when with one hand on his con | Befence he decided’ to manry rather than to ein, and | Wish the other band on the articles of the statute he luired faith in the proclaimed and, benceforward, i | real equality of the citizens. |.

Some thirty or forty years ago, when the Uvity movement bed barely commenced, Herr Drnst von Randel, Westphalian nobleman devoted to the sculptor'e art, conceived the patriotic idoa of erecting a Figantic statue to Hermann, the vanqu'shor of Varus in tho Teutoburg Forest. A grand na- tional monument, the statne was to reach the enormons proportions of 100 fect, not to speak of the pedestal and base; and as it was to be pieced on thi of a bill, the site of vieter#, the di sy of cotting it in position not a little added to the maguitade of the undertaking. In spite of all opstgelea, what appeared a chimera thirty years ago hsa now become a reality, Assisted by wealthy friends and occasional public subscriptions, Herr yon Baudol has completed the figure, and in two months oxpec:s to witness the solemn inaagura- tion of his monument bs the German Emperor.

THE EMPRESS AUGUSTA. Berlin correspondence Cincinnati Gazette: ‘Tho Russian and German Imperial parties, after tho Czar's arrival to-day, drove to the Russian Ambassador's palaco, where tho Empress Augusta meade her state call. She wore on this occasion the latest style of French costumo, s white hat with puro white flowers and white strings, anda Puro white cloth wrap. The public greeted her very kinuly, and she returned their greetings with evident pleasure and continued bows. Hor prolonged stay in Berlin and her uore- mitting attention to tho difforent beuevolent in- stitutions bave created a most kindly focling to tho Royal lady, and ehe seems striving to do away the unftiendly impression her hitherto haughty behavior and her prolonged visits to Cobienz hava created.
