This bejng the condition of things in Rome, we would not be surprized to hear of a desperate struggle having tuken place before this time. It is evident,fiem the temper and determ| by the Romans, coupled with the spirited and sue- cessful resistance which the French army encoun- tered on its first appearance, that if General Oudi- not should agein attempt an entrance into Reme, his progress willbe contested inch by inch, and that ifhe eventually succeeds, it will be at the ruin of Rome; ard the complete destruction of that ancient city. ‘The news by the next steamer may, therefores be looked for with great interest. ing, the extent to w the doubts und mi ed to the Legislative of the French g ye doubt is ind at their doors, and the come what may; ments for resistance ation evinced It is astonish” ich some of our American athize with the dethroned Pepe, and tion.

They have been successful, for the Mayor has issued the desired proclamatien. It goes into operation this day, and the police authorities are enjoined to prevent any infractions of this law,-and to make compluints against al! liquor stores which may hereafter be opened on the Sabbath. ow, if the law prohibiting the sale of liquors on Sundays is to be curried out, we hope there will be no distinctions made. If no liquor is to be sold to the poor mun at three cents por glass, we hope the sixpenny shops will be closed likewise. If the poor laboring man, who, living in a large and crowded city, in an artificial society, cannot regale himself with a glues of beer or brandy and water, as the case muy be, on the only day of rest he has in the week, we see no reason why thé rich man should be allowed to indulge in a bottle of sherry at three dollars. And as for the principle of the matter, we do not see why the righ -man, who can afford to stock his cellar with the choicest Amontillado and Heidsick, should have license to drink even at home on the Sabbath, while the poor man, whose means are hardly sufficient for his family's sup- port, cannot enjoy a three cent or asixpegny drink, which to him is, perhaps, a8 great a luxury as a bottle of portis to his opulent neighbor, ‘There is another point connected with this sub- et, Which we think is entitled to some consider- ation, The object contemplated by the humane gentlemen, who have prevailed upon the Mayor to isene his proclamation, is undoubtedly to lint the drinking of spirituous liquors. Bat will it ha the desired effect? The public, in general, v look upon the measure as an attempt to enforce on them, by authority of law, the opiniens of othe —as an atlempt to make them teetotallers by legis- lation. Against this they wall rebel, and they will, in a spirit of opposition to the dictates of others, and to what they will term an impertinent inte: ference with their rights,as thinking and intelli- gent people, drink at home, if they cannot procure it in tippling shops, or carry a bottle of brandy in their pocket, and unbibe perhaps more than they would, if they were obliged to pay for each drink separately It they imbibe at home, an evil ex- ample will be before their wives and children ; if they carry liquor ubout their pérsons, the cheap- ness with which they can procure it by the quan- tty, may make them take more than they other- wise would, and perhaps make them in the cad confirmed -drunwards. Thus, it will beseen, that the subject must be locked upon in more lights than one. Society, un- nably, endures a great many evils, and many misfortunes are entailed on families, by people in- dulging to freely m drink. [t is the same with emoking, with gambling, with speculating, over- trading, and, in fact, with every imprudence. We admire, however, the spirit of humanity which ac- tuates those who have urged the Mayor to take the course which he has determined to adopt. It isde- lighifal to knew, that in this cold and selfish world, in which the general rule of conduct, adopted by man towards his neighbor in ali his dealings, is based upon that celebrated maxim, ‘ Every one for himeelt, and the devil take the hindmost’’—it ia delightful to contemplate, that there are a few amongst us who are aaimated by a spirit of huma- nity and benevolence, of such high order as is de- veloped in the matter under consideration. Oh, that it were more conprehensive, or would take a higher flght. If it did, indeed, thousands in our midst would no longer die of neglect and starva- tion; the tears of countless widows and orphans would be dried. The worst feature, however, is, that the humanity of the present day does not, asa general thing, extend to the breeches pocket, and 1s utterly unacquainted with bank checks, for the benefit of the friendless, the orphan, or the widow. “ Oh, how I feel for that poor woman !’ exclaimed arich man once. An old member of the society of Friends, who overheard him, addressed him at once, “ Friend, doth thy pocket feel for her?” The rich man vamoeed. Tus Comuon Covner. axp Tae Wittianspurent Ferny.—We hear a goed deal of whispering about certain strange mancuvres that took place recently in the corridors of the City Hall, and in the grog- shops in the neighborhood of the Park, in connee- t with the Willamsburgh Ferry coutroveray. Ta fact, it has been directly intimated that the votes of certam gentlemen of the Common Council were influenced by bribes—that, m plain terms, certain members had been tampered with, and that they gave their votes in exchange for gold, without reference to the merits of the sub were legislating. If we mistuke not, this is the secoud charge of the kind that has been laid at the door of the Com- mon Council. A short time siace, a member of the Board ef Assistants, when tl me subject was under consideration, rose ia his pl r ton which they ce, duri the diseussion, and direc publicly stated that he had been tam, I that he was under the impress of certain of his colleagues did not «x ly with th ort time pre- 1e improper tafla- lier their mands.

The American bark St. Mary (one of the Cali- fornia fleet) had been driven on the rocks of Gra- vata, during a gale on the 6th May, and had lost her keel. She was rescued trom her position, and finally towed to the island of Cobras, by the Br. steamer of war Ilydra. The gale, dar which she was driven ashore, was a most severe one, and considerable damage was done to the shipping; though, with the exception of the St. Mary, we do not see the name of any American vessel mentioned as having suflered damage. From Montevideo and Buenos Ayres, the ac- counts are to the 28th and 25th April. Affairs, in both places, were in statu guc, and we presume they will remain so, until an answer to the offer of Rosas, which was forwarded some time since to the French government, shall be received, ‘There was a rumor current at Montevideo, that by the steamer ‘Driver the English government would send powers plenipotentiary to Mr. Soathern, to adjust the questions at iseue, as far as regarded England. Again, letters from Buenos Ayres, as well as from Montevideo, contradict the report which went out by the last packet, that Admiral Predour had sent to France a project of agreement with Rosas, for approval by his government. 6 fact is, there are as many rumors afloat as there are about Venezuela news now-a-days.

Nothing of importance was stirring in New Or- leans. The cholera had greatly subsided, and in fact, was scarcely noticed. The efforts made to stop the crevasse had been thus far effectual, and the work is going steadily on, though the rear portion of the city is yet flooded with water.
