The results of the alliance of Prussia with Austria against foreign Powers had always ehown what influence Germany had exercised in such cases in Europe; but the interests of the two Powers were un- fortunately irreconcilable at hom There was no room for both ; one was obliged to give way before the other.

The Turkish authorities will procure for these latter every faciiity for leaving the island, and will do the same for the native families who ‘wish to emigrate. This measure does honor to the government of the Sultan.

The Pall Mall Gazette of the 4th of October reports:— The distress which has for some time prevailed ‘among the working classes in France appears by the latest reports from the manufacturing districts to be on the increase. At Rouen most of the factory hands now work for only four days in the week, and it is said that the manufacturers will soon reduce this number to ‘three. There is also great dificulty in obtaining work at Elbeouf, Mulhouse and St. Quer In Paris, too, the completion of most of the new streets and buildings bas thrown a great number of laborers out of work, and men who earned from four to five trance a day Jast year are now glad to obtain employment at less than baif that raie, This state of things will, of course, be gr farther aggravated by the close of the Exbibi- tion. is to be feared thatthe lower classes iv Paris will has @ bard time of it this winter.

There could be no harm, however, in the Minister enlarging on the difficulties and dangers of that attitude and throwing out some hints as to its precari- ousness. The movement of 60,000 troops to the Koman frontier bad already, previous to the arrest at Sinalupga, occasioned an outlayjof 10,000,000fs, Now, the main argument which determined the emperor leon to accede to the September convention was the long array of figures which the presence of an lmperial garrison in | City inscribed tn the French Budget, France could no longer afford the ba ar even for the sake of g the Pope’ 28; why shoul a be made to bear afar heavier burden, with no reward than the Pope's curses? ‘The Pope has Saticn Geencmare of his territory; what i left is worse than useless to him. If his presence in Rome is necessary, why should more than Rome be guaranteed to him? If he isto remain there under Italian Protection, why should not this protection be made as littie onerous to Italy as can be? Acordon of ten or twelve miles would secure the Pope far more efficiently than one of hundred and fifty, and the cosia would be much lighter for Italy, and they would be compensated by an acquisition of territory.

The Italian goverament might screen the Pope from its moderate triends, but scarcely from its radical enemies. Rome may be safe from Victor Emanuel, but only to find herself at the mercy of Mazzini, From the onset of the Papal frontier may be guarded, but st the intrusion of unarmed individuals, The King’s government has no right to inter‘ere with ‘he citizens’ movements, and even by the arrest of Gari- baidi it has gone far beyond its strictly legal powers and will have a heavy account to render to the na. tonal representation.

These were the very arguments urged by Count Cavour's agents to the Emperor Napoleon sn 1850-1860, and ti was by their cogency that the | sanction was obtained to the anuekation of the ons, and sub- sequently to that of the Marches and Umbria. If M.

The anticipations of a brilliant season which were current at the beginuing of the year have been, generally speaking, fulfiiied; indved, as far as good sport and close racing are concerned, 1867 will always bean annus mi- rabilts in yachting annals. The arrival of the American yachts Henrietta, Vesta and Fieotwing gave unusual ani- mation to the yachting interest at an early period, usually the dead season of the year, aud fond a indulged in that the New Yorkers would not only allow these fine clippers to contend with tho best of our British yachts, but would send over others to compete in various matches of the season. Special articles admit- ting them to the races wore appended to the rulea of many clubs; but we belisve in no single jnstance were they taken advantage of. Why our cousins failed to put im ap appearance is somewhat out of o Nk ttation. ' It cannot, moreover, be denied that, from causes more or less inscrutable, wany well known yachts were not fitted out this year, but lay in inglorious ease upon the mud. Perbaps the Paria Exhibition had something to do with their defection; for, with tue best intentions, it was not found practicable to combine yachting with a trip to the gay city; and as the Exhibition ts not likely to take place agaia, while yachting is 4 durable institu. tion, many yacht ownera gave up their annual cruise in favor of & “rap over” to Paris, which left but a small superQuily at their banker's.
