State of Europe—The Foreign News, We publish to-day the details in full of the for- eign news, and several letters from our numerous correspondents, which give a complete view of the important events that are taking place in Europe. The intelligence, we are sorry to say, is of a different character to what we had hoped for. Yet we do not despair; for it is our firm conyle- tion, that all the resources of the despots of Europe, and all the treachery of Louis Napoleon, will be unequal to the task of subduing the democratic spint which is now abroad in the Old World. Thousands of lives may, and will, no doubt, be sacrificed, but the cause of liberty will eventually triumph. On reviewing the iniquitous course whith -the present French Government has thought pro- per to puggye, the horrible suspicion forces itself on our mind, that Louis Napoleon is not only tampering with the republic, but* that he is intriguing for the r ation of the empire, with Austria and Russia, and perhaps, also, with England. There is something more than the restoration of the Pope in the attack on Rome—a restoration which, it effected, may cauye his Holi- #ness his life. We fear that bad as itis, incon- sistent as it is with true republicanism, adverse as it is toliberty and the féelings of the French peo- ple, it is only an excuse for doing worse hereafter. ‘We say now, as we said from the commencement, that the Pope will never be tolerated fagain as sovereign of Rome; that his power must be up- held by foreign nets; and that if his Holin continues in the course which he is pursuing, even his spiritual authority may eventually be assailed. ‘The present age is one of mind and intelligence. 3 ‘Tne Pork anv Perer-Pance.—The letter writ- ten by Bishop Hughes, concerning the collection of Peter-pence for his Holiness the Pope, and the propriety of raising the fund referred to, in the Ca- thole churches, to-day, are much discussed in this community. It is argued by some that no collection of the kind should be made, and by others that it should. The controversy will be at an end, we suppose, to-day, when people will act as they think proper in the matter, and give, or not give, Peter-pence, as they may thiak fit. We can't help smiling, however, at one of the positions assumed by the worthy Bishop in his late lettes’ In about half a dozen lines, he strivs his Holiness of all the mystery with which he is clothed as head of the Catholic church, and places him before the world as a mortal, to whose tempo- ral existence eating and drinking are as necessary as they are to any common man. We certainly live in a curious age when we see such a thing done by the Bishop As the head of the church, we have always entertamed a profound veneration tor the occupant of the chair of St. Peter, but have ever dishked the mystery by which he has been always clothed, and the mystenous awfulness which surrounds tim. We have looked upon it in the same light as we do upon the pomp and cir+ cumstance with which royalty and despotism are clothed in Europe, and which are artfully designed te strike the vulgar with surprise and veneration. Let that pomp and circumstance be removed, and lo! kings, queens and despots are, after all, mere men oad women, formed as other human beings are, and subject to the same desires, passions and propensities. But we do not expect that any of | pearance from the ti the royal blood in any monarchy in Europe, will teke measures to show this to the vulgar. Well, now that we are informed that the Pepe | benevolence. ynust eat and drink like other people, he must have a trémendous appetite, if it is necessary for the people of the whole world to contribute to his sup- port, especially as, in that part of Europe where | dued and faltering, the resides, the expenses of living are very moderate. What has become of the large sums which have been contributed in Peter-peace in Ireland, And other catholic countries on the other side of the Atlantic? Sorely the Apostle Peter, whose successor Pius the Ninth is, wasa plain, humble fisherman, and did not require the whole world to contribute to his support. But we hope this Peter-pence, or at least ‘he -~rplus, after fur- nishing the eating and drinking for the Pope, will not be expended in paying Russian, Austrian, or French soldiers, for slaughtering the people of Rome, and forcing on them a sovereign and a form of government which they have repudiated. It is idle to suppose that the Pope is in want of money for his support. He has been offered sixty thousand dollars by the King of Naples; the Empe | happen to know he has no « ror of Russia, we are informed, has sent him fifty thousand crowns, and other sovereigns have con- tributed largely to him. The Romans themselves, even, have offered to support him in his usual dig- nity of sty yut he declined. What need, there. fore, of his calling upon the unfortunate Irish peo- ple, whose country is desolated by both plague and famine, and who are themselves dying by thow sands of starvation—who themselves have been but lately the recipients of alms from the whole world—what need had the Pope of calling on them for pecuniary aid, or on their poor countrymen in the United States, a majority of whom earn but ecanty wages in return for the most toilsome labor? ‘What need has he of calling on any people for his Sujport? Now, in speaking of the Pope, we desire not to detract from his holy character as head of the Catholic Thurch. When we refer to him as a tem- poral sovereign, we speak of him as we would of any other; and in this connection we must express our surprise atthe remarks made by some ef our cotemporaries. A morning paper of this city says, that if the people of Rome sueceed in maintaining their republic, there will be an end to the invinei- bility and universality of the Romish Charch This is nonsense of the worst kind. It will de- prive him, it eaye, of the prestige of his great name—it will stip him of tus temporal power, and of the means of dignifying bis spiritual power With the exception of stripping bir of his temporal power, this is all fudge. The temporal and spi- ritual power are, and ought always to have been, separate and distinet from each other, ant vested mm stparste hands, as they wow are; and dix the present position of the Roman cy we must omit referring to the Pope, as Pope, and confine our remarks to him as sovereign. If we do so, the question at once arises, had the Romans the right to depose him? We can answer this by asking, had the patriots of the thirteen British colonies in America the right to rise in arms against England? The Romish Church will lose no part of its invincibility or universality by the overthrow of its head as a sovereign. It is not touched, and cannot be touched at all ; and there is no disposition in Romans to assail it. As for this collection of Peter-pence, unnecessa- ry as we think it is, Catholics can contribute, or not, toit, asthey please; but as we have said before, we hope it will not be misapplied. Cuovera in THR Crry--[rs Ravages Exsewuere. This week there has been an increase of one hun- dred and forty-five cases of cholera, and seventy- six deaths, as reported by the Board of Health, over the returns of last week. The citizens of and with | New York, however, have reason to be grateful to | 11 Providence that the deaths are so few. If the number was what it is at Paris, or even at St! Louis, in our own country, then there might be some ground for apprehension and melancholy, Upwards of 11,000 deaths, we are told, had al- ready occurred at the French capital, and in one day 900 cases were reported, and 600 deaths, ‘There is one reason that accounts for the greater mortality in the European city, independently of its greater population—the extreme poverty and absolute want of a large nuinber of the people. If the same destitution prevailed here, the fatality would be really alarming. Where poverty aad destitution, and consequent filth do exist here, we find that there the disease makes deadly ravageg. We have already given many cases in point. We shall now give another that’ has just comegynde; our observation :— “d Jemmy MeSauley, an Irishman, with family C) seven, (including himself,) resided Pine base: ment of the house at corner of 37th streettand Tr venue.

Lyon, arrived yesterday morning from Savannah. We are indebted toCapt. Lyon for papers ahead of the mail. Very Rev. Theobold Mathew. ‘The worthy Friar of Cork is located, as we long since aunounced he would be, at Mr. Nesmith’s, Staten Island, The house is situated on an eminence, or rather under the brow of the hill in the centre of the island, about two miles from the landing at the Qua- rantine It is @ most romantie spot, commanding « view of the water nearly ail round. The scenery is naturally picturesque; but there is one feature in it that gives it Infinite variety—it is the shipping ever-moving to and from the ocean—vessels of every fag and mould, and size, and ri; king the water like things of life. The air is healthy 4 bracing, for it sweeps in, ever fresh and puro, and without obstruetion, from the wide Atlantic. This rural retreat bas ® southern and eastern aspect, and tho temperature is 10 degreos higher in winter, and by far lower in summer, than at Now York. Amore salubrious and delightful spot cannot well be comevived. It is fortunate it has been selected for Fathew Mathew after the fatigues of his voyage ; and we are glad to learn, that after the public reception on Monday, he will return there and remain at least for # week, the guest of Mr. Nesmith. We visited the good man yesterday; and though he looked well after his voyage, there was ® decided change in his general that we saw him in |relan: few years ago—nob #0 grew nge. however, as wo were led to expect from what we h heard. His face is still ruddy, and beams as it ever did, with His hair is turned from jet black to @ dark grey.

Seven years ago he would be taken for # man ot 40 years of age. He has one feature unchanged —his clear blue eye, still undimmed, reveals the bright intel. ligence within. He expresres himself as delighted with the country and ita scenery. He is particularly pleased with the view of the bay, between Long Island and Staten Island, as seen from Mr. Nosmith’s house, and compares it to the Lakes of Killarney Hie is not to preach to day in Staten Island, nor will he epeak at great length to morrow in New York. as he wired to keep as quiet as possible for afew days While he fully appreciates the honor of « public re- ception here, his own feeling 4s entirely opposed to pomp and display. He never sought it in his own country, where he might have enjoyed it if he wished, being the most universally popular man in the land — He eannot, now that he is turning into the “sere and yellow leaf,” be less modest and wbassuming than he once porsersed. eror wal he arrangements Procleely as we ced them. The Irving House be his quarters. and we mpathy with the illiberality expressedin his name. To morrow afternoon the com- wmittees will escort him to the city, when the reception procession will take place in a manner worthy of the venerable apostle of temperance. It is his intention, we understand, to visit every part of the United States. The following are some of the more minute partieu- lars connected with the landing of Father Mathew. On her arrival at the Quarantine, the Ashburton was immediately visited by Dr. Harris, the Deputy Health Officer, who, baving examined the passengers aod and found i . physi with the whole of his k.

A lady togk the stage in the lower part #f the city, acoom- a by a little girl and an infant ehjl |. At the ‘20th street she stopped the stage, and handed ore thamthe requisite money for the fare of herself and girl, expecting, of course, that he would charge nothing for the infant, which is customary.

The plainti allege that he sold the books and misapplied the proceeds of the sales, orsome part of them, and now seek to recover on the guaranty.
