Baglish Sympathy With the Pope—The Cabi- net a Unkt—Foreign Missions—The Tobacco Tax. FLORENCE, Oct, 24, 1870. ‘The Opintone rays that several English noblemen have arrived in this city from Rome, which place ‘they left on Saturday, to urge upon the Italian gov- ernment the settlement of the guarantees relative to the independence of the Pope. ‘The rumors of ministerial disagreements here are utterly unfounded. Signor Blanc, the Secretary in the Foreign OMice, has been appointed Italian Minister to Spain.

The population ts indignant at the disposition of the Tours government to cede the Duchy to Prussia instead of Lorraine. New York Politicians and Criminals. A most remarkable episode occurred yester- day in the Court of General Sessions on the trial of Thomas Jackson for the murder of Archibald Douglas. The accused is a First ward democratic politician and the homicide grew out of a political brawl. Counsel for the accused objected to the Recorder presid- ing on the trial, and based the objection on an affidavit sworn to by the prisoner, alleging, asa matter of general notoriety, that the Re- corder is frequently influenced in his judicial decisions by the advice and control of Mayor Hall, and that Mayor Hall is politically and personally hostile to the accused. On this extraordinary statement the still more extra- ordinary motion was made that the Recorder give way to one of the judges of the Court of Common Pleas and submit himself to be ex- amined by counsel in regard to his bias and to the allegations set forth. It need hardly be said that the motion was indignantly denied. In the discussion that ensued it was stated by Judge Bedford, who was sitting in the case as an associate justice, that on a previous occasion, when a motion to quash the indictment against the same prisoner was made before him an attempt to influence his decision in favor of the accused was made by another politician—the member of Con- gress from that district, Mr. John Fox. Here is a most remarkable state of things, in which an attempt is made by a member of Congress to shield a criminal from the penalty due to his crime because he is a political sup- porter of such member; and when that at- tempt failed, through the independence of one judge, a further effort is made to thwart justice by impugning the motives of another judge and alleging political hostility and bias on his part. If we progress further in this direction all our criminals will expect to escape the gal- lows or the State Prison on account of their politics, either by the aid of party friends or by challenging judges or jurors as party adver- saries. This furnishes another proof of the evil effect of letting our judiciary system be contaminated by politics. GERMANY. The Elbe Free—A Call from Versnilles. HAMBURG, Oct. 24, 1870.

Early Settlement of tho Hivhery Question Mr. Motley au Obstacle in the Way of Ad- justmeut. Last weex I telegraphed you tiat the didiculties concerning the fisheries, about which the Salemites and people of other sections of the Old Bay State are 80 much excited tn consequence of Canadian prohi- bitions and the seizure of certain American vessels by the Dominion authorities, were in a fair way of adjustment, I am able toconfirm that statement to-day. I am informed on unquestionable sutho- rity that the disposition of the English Cabinet is to adjust the questions at issue in a manner satia- factory to our. government and favorable vo the claims of American fishermen. This triendly dix position 1s due more to a desire to please our govern- Ment and avoid the occasion of any unpleasant teel- ings than toa concession of the soundness of our claims. The truth seems to be, that, reduced to & question of strict right, the demands of the Amertcan fishermen can not be sustained on principles of internauional law and treaty provisions, ‘The Canadians seem to have the law on thelr side, though the enforcement of it, after permitting it to Me dormant for a0 many years, may be justly re- garded as an indication of unfriendly feeling. One Great dificuity tn the way of an adjustment of these diMiculties is the perverseness of Mr, Motley in re- maining at London, as our diplomatic representa tive, after the repeated hints and invitations to re- sign. The President is averse to entrusting a new subject, like the fishery dimculty, which has as- sumed such @ formidable shape lately, to a Minister who may be replaced in @ few weeks, and who might unnecessarily complicate and embarrass it. It 18 a subject of wonder in administration circies, to say nothing of the disgust with which it inspires all high-toned people, how Mr. Motley can “stick” to London under the circumstances, {[t has been customary for a Cabinet or Diplomatic Minis- ter to retire at the frst hint of Presidential dtsplea- sure. Mr, Motiey’s only excuse for holding on is that were he to resign he would be making a confes- sion of dereliction and give the public a chance to credit the unpleasant things that have been said and written against him. In administration circles Unts is looked upon as the weakest kind of palitation for his conduct, However that may be, it 1s certain Mr. Moticy ts now an obstacle tn the way of speedy settlement of the fishery troubles. The moment his successor is appointed and accepts he will be charged with full powers for the adjustment of this business, under specific instructions from the State Department, and no doubt 8 entertained that England will accede to our demands promptly and cheerfully. Jn this connection I may state that the recent account pubiished in a Buston paper purporting to give the key to the Motley diniculties was replete with biunders, ana, in fact, only contained a little grain of truth hidden among bushels of misrepresenta- tions, not to use the harsher term of falsifications. For instance, it was stated that one of the gric ances was that Motley refused to appoint a lately married gon of Secretary Fish as one of the Secre- taries of Legation, aud that part of the account was 80 Worded as to convey the idea that Mr. Fish him- self had been a party to the scheme of having his own son appointed to a position under his own de- partment, Now, the truth ts, that a long time ago, when General Badeau resigned, the President pro- posed to Mr. Fish to appoint his own son, Mr, Fish promptly and emphatically declined, saying that he did not think it properto appoint to any ofices under him any of his relations. The President urged that there were many precedents to justify it; that both Dallas and Dayton appointed their own sons, and that in other departments it was quite @ common practice. Mr, Fish remained unconvinced, however, and cut short the conversation by the remark that these things were pure matters of taste, not of precedent, and that he could not consent to the appointment of his son, Notwithstanding this the President some ume after got General Badeau to write to Motley requesting him to ask for the appointment of young Mr. Fish, thinking in this way to overcome the scru- ples of his Premier, who was kept in entire Igno- rance of the proceeding. Mr. Motley wrote back in answer that he had already made an appolntment, and therefore could not ask for that of young Mr, Fish, The President, justly deeming that Motley had no right thus to appoinf bis subordinates, requested secretary Fish to find some one else to fill the posi- tion. This was done, Mr. Nadal, a gentleman strongly recommended and backed up by Mr. Cres- well, being the person, It was not until a very long time after all this that Governor Fish was let into the secret, It ts equally erroneous to state that the recall of Motley is tn any way due to Sumner’s op- position to the San Domingo treaty. That is all bosh. Mr, Motley’s own deliberate disobedience of orders and refusal to follow explicit instructions, his toadyism and unamerican course genera!ly, were the real objections in the President’s mind to his longer continuagce at the court of St. James, Financial Operations of the Post Offive De- partment.

Strange Case of Suspended Animation. A strange case of suspended animation has just been developed in this city, making truth at least as strange as fiction. A young girl, sixteen years old, named Ella Frerrer, a native of Virginia, died, to all appearances, last Thursday, at Hampstead, King George's county, Va., of typhoid fever. She was brought here for interment in the Congressional Cemetery, over a rough Virginia road, and when she arrived tp this city and thet box was opened, a lady Who was fixing her for the coMn noticed a fush to come over her tace and very unmistakeable signs of respiration, The lady immediately became greatly alarmed, a doctor was sent for and soon it became evident that the poor young girl had really life in her. The physicians, however, could do nothing for her—their aid arrived too late. Galvanic batteries were applied with remarkavle Tesults, the pulse and respiration being restored for some time with feeble regniarity, but the moment the artificial agent was removed, the girl again lost all signs of animation. At last accounts she was undoubtedly dead, The thue appointed for the funeral was three o'clock this afternoon, but, of course, though the carriages and hearse were on hand, the gad cere- mony Was postponed, The case causes the greatest excitement here. WEYDELL PHILLIPS IN WASIINGTON, The Great Agitator Does Not Expect to be Governor of Massachusetts—His Views of the Alubama Question and American Statesmen. WASHINGTON, Oct, 24, 1870, Wendel! Phillips, who arrived bere to-day to lec: ture before the Grand Army of the Republic, was called upon by one of your correspontents, and in the course of conversation said some things worthy of betag put on record. Among other things he said that his stay in Washington would be limited to twenty-four lours—lis presence was needed in Massachusetts, The canvass was active and he feit like going into it with ardor, “Not? said he, “that I shall hope for the success of our ticket, but the canvass will draw out our forces and demonstrate our strength. Wilson tells me we ought to poll 30,000 voves, We have much to contend against. We have no money, I have no money; and the machinery of a political cam- paign is apt to work badly without that assistance. We rely upon the great principles of temperance and labor reform for our support. We feel assured the day 18 not far distant when they will triumph."” CORRESPONDENT.—There 13 @ rumor afloat, Mr, Phillips, that your name ts being mentioned in Cabinet circles for Minister to Engiand. Mk. PHILLIPs.—It was mentioned two months ago, at the time Mr, Frelinghuysen was named, but { heard no more of it since. 1 am satisfied from what has come to my knowledge that President Grant intends to send a Western man to represent us in England. It may be true that Senator Morton has declined to accept, but the President will endeavor to dnd some other Western man who will. CORRESPONDENT—But the mission was offered to Senator Frelinghuysen. Mr. PHILLIPS—That 1s true, but, though I nave never spoken to General Grant, I believe, from what Thave learned, that the selection this time will be Irom among the Western men. Since Senator Freelinghuysen declined matiers in Europe have undergone a change. There never was a more favorable opportunity fora firm, dignified demand on England to settle our claims against her. In the present state of Europe it is essential for ner to keep on the best of terms with us, Republican France may win—which I hope she will—this fight of freedom against the barbarous despotism of Prussia, and then she will stand facing England, virtually asking an explanation of her conduct. No; England 1s in just that condition that what she would not hitherto render to the claims of right and equity she may now be disposed to render to her fears. CORRESPONDENT—Judging from your recent speech, Mr. Phillips, you favor the re-election of President Grant. Mr. PHILLIrs—I do, He 1s the strongest man in the country to-day. Grant has the character and the average brain which represents the loyalty and intelligence of the American people. If Ghase had the character of Grant and the de:ocratic party had the sense he might have been Presiaent; but Chase has no character, his party had no ‘con- fidence in him and did not know where to find him. Grant 1s not a brilliant nor a popular man, but brtiliant and popular men with us have never been elecied to the chief magistracy. Calhoun and Clay were strong tn their respective parties, but neither could secure the confidence of the mass of.ihe people. Webster was popnler and briiliant, but he, 0, Was & failure, Douglas, with his bright and trenchant intellect and unbounded popularity, was o' ched by the homely common sense of Tne people of Ainerica look more to than to brains and briliiancy. Grant could never win such love and admiration as weve given to Washington or to the First Napoleon, but he can make sure of that conflaence from the people which means that th “y believe the honor and interests of the nation are im lus hands. This 18 what 1 mean by char: Sumner, wiih all bis ability, coulim t rally a corpo- rai’s guard. The same way be said of Wilson, Trumbull ahd other leaders in the repub- lican party. My theory will apply win as much force to England as to the Untted States. ‘There was Lord Derpy—he could never hold power, notwithstanding ability. He was unscrupulous; he was iso.ated More or jess irom the living issues of the day. Russell, without any ability to speak of, was in office hall a century, but Russell was on a level with the great mass of hts followers. He re ed their Ideas without originating any of his own. If popularity could Cope it, John Bright ought vw be prime minister of England, but it is easy to see that something else 18 required. ‘The man who reflects the sentiments of the largest num and keeps in the front rank is the successiul one. Grant answers this description of nan. [admit he did not suit my views in the start, but 1 say cheerfully now that ne does. General Grant is ahead of nis party—they have ‘alien behind him. CORRESPONDENT—Does his action in the recon- struction of the Southern States meet with your approval? Mr, PHILLIPS—Well, not wholly and entirely, but still far better than I expected. He has shown great Judgment, and, above ali, he has maintained for the colored people a steadfast friendship when numerous prominent embers of his party shirked their duty. Grant embodies the sentiments of the American peo- ple more fully than any previous President. The Deliticians of both parties distrust him, and there lies bis strength. His course so Jar would be approved on a popular vote. It ts strong common sense, united toa firm will and a true, patriotic spiri, which has heid him straight inthe line of duty the people desired he should pursue, But he is not supported, Congress is selfish and drivelling. It does not interpret the wants aud aspiaations ef tue country. It deais in Jobs. It has no broad policy. It is incommensurate With the growth and intelligence of the country. The active, progressive mind of America has no free play tuere. ie tims is at hand for a change and for a higher aud bettsr representation.

Especially to the womanly element in that character Marie See- bach has given a richer development anda more delicate flavor than has been given to it by any of the celebrated — performers who have, at tempted tus dificult role. We have ale ready so fully and so minutely described last Thursday eventug's representation of “Adrienae Lecouvreur,” that we now need only repeat witheme phasis tle hearty commendations which it. them elic ted. The American siage has never witnessed an impersonation in which fervor, force bey ei were more harmoniously blended.

She has sought and fouad her best mspiration in nature, Her voice‘ at once sweet and powerful; her eyes, her face, with ite matchiess mobility of expression; her hands, and all her gea- lures, attitudes and movements, are equally elo- quent, No spectator of the thritiing death scene, which 1s the climax Of an unsurpassed series of dra- mauc situauons in “Adrienne Lecouvreur” can ever forget with what infinite pathos and ious power At Was enacted last night by Marie Seeouc! out the plece the great actress was excellently well supported, The audience was large ang enthusiastic; but in a city where there is 80 numerous a German population, and where American theatre-goers have evinced & decided appreciation of the and ac- complishinents of distinguished foreign artists, it ia surprising that the Fourteenth Street theatre is not nightly filled to overfowing. This (Tuesday) event Seebach will appear for the last time in her great of Jane Eyre. Wednesday, al two o’clock tn tne alter- noon, she will give her incomparable personation of Mary Stuart. Her benefit will be on Wednesday evening, and her positively last performauces are announced for Friday and Saturday. ACADEMY OF MUSIC, BROOKLYN—JANAUSOHEK As Devokan.—Mile, Janauschek made her first appear- ance before a Brooklyn audience last night, at the Academy, as Deborah, a part which sbe has invested with aremarkable power, not equalled by her pre- dece-sors with whom we are familiar in the charac- ter of poor forsaken Leah. Japauschek was maga ficent in the terribie curse scene, and from firet to last depicted the story with a fluelity to nature that surpassed all efforts at art. The applause was fre- quent and earnest. We regret to say, however, thas, tue house was not anything commensurate with the enius of Che artist or the Interest of the occasion, twas, in fact, a very poor nouse, com with, what it ought to have been, However, it ls prover vial with the Brooklyn people who frequent the thea- tres that @ sensation i6 ulways more capuvating than the simple splendor of true art. BowkEkyY THEATRE.—Attraction follows attraction so rapidly at this establishment that we find it almost impossible to keep track of them.
