"0 dark, venerable buildings," I said, blarney
ing them:you see. as I walked between their files,
"0 fatherly roofs and ancestral hearths, made in
the times when Rouen was a greater city than
Paris : what have you done with your goodmen,
your sturdy sons and daughters of other days ?
Where are all the tout Norman boys, the staff of
fighting France? Where arc the simple maids to
remember them? What is the end of your
stormy traditions, you who may have watched
the Conqueror die, or brightened in the fiery
apotheosis of the Nicene ? Why do your echoes
occupy but Ns ith the prattle of Infancy or the
babble of age? and'where are the manly limbs
and the high civic hearts that should be the pil

They were ready to gossip, and they answered
plainly unsiiigh, testily enough, ruefully enough.

LETTER FROM PARIS.
iC ,, rreppondenee of the Phil,,delphia Evening Bulletin.]
P,kiti-, Friday, Sept. - 2i, 186 - 7.—The crisis in
Italy, of which I have before intimated the ap
proach, has come more suddenly than we
I anticipated. Garibaldi has been arrested
. at, the
I moment when he was about to cross the Pontifi
cal frontier, and has been conveyed a .prisoner
to Alessandria by the Italian government. This
important news was first announced to
us by the ..thmiff , ti. of the 25th inst., which
gaveit without one word of remark or
comment. and has observed a grim silence
on the subject ever since. The arrest took place
at Asinalunga. a small village in the province of
ArezzO, not far from . Monte Pulchino, to the
northwest of the famous Lake of Thrasymene.
Thither bad Garibaldi gone from Florence, al
most without an attempt to conceal his designs,
after sonic stormy interviews with Crispi and
_ . ,A . h erE , of Lis_politieal friends in, the Chamber,
who vainly attempted . to dissuade him from
his enterprise. and, according to sonic
reports, after similar efforts made in
pprorm by no, bowl of um government, Signor
llatazzi himself. And in truth it must be allowed
that Garibaldi, with his usual heroic and chival
rous disdain of all subterfuge or dissimulation,
placed the above-named Minister in a sufficiently
awkward dilemma. For what was Ilatazzi, or
any one else in his position, to do, or what else
eculd Le do but what has been done? Here stands
France on one side, with the treaty of September
I• in her baud, clamoring. for her pound of flesh,
. and even making demonstrations (real or feigned)
of a move from Toulon upon Civita Vecchia, un
less her dcnaintl was complied with. And here.
on the other side, is that terribly indiscreet old
man, Garibaldi, undisguisedly preparing to via
late the conditions which Italy has solemnly
ii pledged herself to maintain intact. Why
I co,uldit - t Garibaldi, you may ask, have carried
on his enterprise with decent discretion.
and . kept himself within the limits of
the law until it was too late to attempt
to lay hold of him? The answer is
that it was notlin the open nature of the man so
to act. Garibaldi is no plotter;'whatever he does
must be done openly and above board. He made
no secret of his - descent upon Sicily, nor of his
passage from Messina to Calabria. but simply
defied the Neapolitan cruisers to stop him. And
so, now, he defied the government to arrest him
in the face of public opinion, and in the dis
charge of what he undoubtedly regards as a last
act of sacred )duty, and of self--sacrifice and
patriotism, imperatively demanded • of
Garibaldi cannot die in peace while
a corner of his beloved country still
remains in bop dage;and he has openlyavowed his
readiness to fall a martyr to the liberties of Rome,
if martyrdom be necessary to strike off her
chains. There was no compromising matters
with such a man as this. Ratazzi and Garibaldi
had duties to perform utterly incompatible with
each other, and one or the other of them must of
necessity giVe way. And, indeed, the Italian
minister waited until the last extremity before he
acted. The French Ultramontane press has long
been clamoring fiercely against him for his "con
nivance," and making the most violent appeals to
the religious passions and superstitions of the
French people. The Bishop of Orleans published
the other day, in one of these journals,a letter of six
columns full of the most virulent denunciations
of Ratazzi. The Italian Minister seems to have
behaved with firmness and dignity under this
storm of obloquy, in., the difficult position in
which he was placed. He is even said to have
replied to a threat ou the part of' France,
that she would return to Rome, that if she
attempted to do so he would be there before
her. But it was. no doubt, his duty to avoid
coming to any such extremities, especially
when it' is considered that any collision be
tween the French and Italian troops would
have enlisted the sympathies of the entire French
nation in the Papal cause. Moreover, France
stood then, ,as I have said, treaty in hand, _lt
cannot be denied that e condition on which the
French quitted Rome s that the Italian Go
vernment should guard t Pontifical frostier
from attack; and the advantage of getting the
French out of the country was not, perhaps, too
dear at the price paid for it, seeing it could be
accomplished' in no other way. Even as I write,
a short note appears in the Jioniteur congratu
lating the
,Italian Government on its scrupulous
observance of the treaty of September. In Italy
itself' the ferment caused by the arrest has been
but slight, and it is evident, that the country at
large acquiesces in the necessity of the measure.
I The leading journals, the Opinione and ° the Na
zione, both uphold the policy of the Government.
Garibaldi is free to return to Caprorn, if ho re
- nounces his project",

Empress . of Austria has. no doubt, been already
secured. An attempt is now being -made to In

A pressing invitation is also understood to have
been forwarded to Queen Victoria for, the same
occasion, and with a good chance of success.
The Erdpress will also personally distribute the
prizes awarded for the protection of ehildrepr and
apprentices in manufactories.
The accounts of the prospects of the vintage
throughout France are nearly everywhere the
same, viz.: a limited quantity of wine, but of
very superior quality. In some districts the
yield will be two-thirds of an average, in others
as low as one-third. The cold and wet spring
checked the productive powers of the vines: but
the warm and prolonged autumn has greatly im
proved the flavor of the grapes. The gathering
of the crop will be deferred as long as possible.
The Hoz - often, - gives some interesting
statistics of the increase of the trade of
Portugal with France. Up to 1816 it did
not exceed four and a halt' millions: in 1852 it had
risen to eight millions;. in 1851; to nineteen, and
in 184;n to twenty-four. At present the trade
amounts to, more than forty-sewn millions, of
which ten represent the exports of Portugal, and
thirty-seven the imports.
Numerous communications are at this moment
passing between the Prefect of Paris and Mr.
Eastman. C. S. Consul at Bristol, inventor of the
system of' rails and carriages for streets which
goes by his name. and whoic models, as I men
tioned, attracted so much attention at the Exhi
bition. I understand that an arrangement is in
contemplation for introducing this American
system into Paris on a considerable scale.
I think it right/ to mention as a warning the
outrageous treatment of Airs. Truefield. an
American lady. at the 11(04/,th rue de
Choiseul. heft by a man named Lemoine. She
engaged a single room there at the price of
ten francs a week. Afterwards the following bit e
was sent in : Two candles, 2 francs . ; bedroo
candle, 1 franc; a bath, i; francs; two dinners, 10
francs: four clays' room, 40 francs; four days' do.,
80 francs, .Cc., with other thravagant Items. On
her refusing to pay, the landlord locked her up
in her room for two days, and when, afterwards,
she. succeeded in reaching the street, he followed
her out, wrenched her hands from some iron
bars to which she clung, and dragged her back
by main force into his house. Fortunately she
was seen by a French gentleman, who summoned
the police and forced his way in. • Lemoine was
sentenced to the insufficient penalty of a month's
imprisonment and 100 francs fine. But it is hoped
that all Americans will avoid his house, and warn
their friends, espesligy
• THE PAN-ANC4.ICAN SYNOD.
A Full , and Int resting Report of Its
oceedilw,s.
(From the New• York Church JournaL]
The Council of Lambeth has finished its busi
ness sessions, which continued through Tuesday.
Wednesday. Thursday and Friday. until after 4
o'clock in tho wttc, oou. _As rimy sat with none
but themselves present (except a stenographic
reporter), and as their proceedings were to be
regarded as confidential until the session closed,
anti as it.motion ,was carried at the close that the
stenographic report should be written out and
laid up in the archives or Lambeth Palace, but
not printed (:)—it is simply impossible to give
anything like an adequate or full account of - the
very interesting and important discussions that
have occupied the attention of the. Council. -The
things done are to be published at once in full,
together with the Synodical Epistle or Pastoral
Letter, signed by all the Bishops present.
The two subjects that caused the greatest dis
c ussiou woe—first, the statement of the standard
of true Catholicity. and secondly,the question of
Natal. On the former of these points, the pro
gramme of proposed business mentioned only
the First Four General Councils. On the first
day, the Bishop of Vermont moved to diange the
the Four to Six, and, earucAly sup rted the
motion.
The Bishop of Illinois moved to omit the num
eral, making the reference indefinite: and the
Bishop of Winchester then proposed to omit the
phrase altogether, which was carried. But this
conclusion was felt to be too unsatisfactory,to
stand. The discussions on that day were so pro
longed that they did not get through with the
first resolution; and accordingly, on a subsequent
day, when passing upon the latter clause of it,
the "undisputed General Councils" were all ac
knowledged; an expression precisely equivalent
to the "first Six."
The other matter of interest—the Natal ques
tion—will have a fair chance. The Archbishop
of Canterbury, knowing the unwillingness of
many of the English Bishops to venture upon so
entirely unprecedented a step as the calling of
such a Council, and anxious to forestall as much
as possible their objections to so strange a novelty,
had intended to keep the subject of Dr. Colenso
out entirely. That subject has already so long
worried the Church of England, and has to the
of many brought about-such an Inextricable
tangle 'between the Church and the State, that
not a few of the English Bishops would have ab
sented themselves entirely it that subject were
known to be on the programme. ,
The real cause of this sensitiveness - is, not any
doctrinal sympathy with Colenso, though the few
who have that sympathy know well how to turn
it to their own advantage, but it is the delicate
question of the mutual relations of Church and
State, in regard to which all men's minds are
now at 'work, and there is a very general antici
pation that things cannot remain as they are
very long. The Colonial Church, however, re
garded this as the most important subject to be
treated; and a large proportion of them, as well
as of the .Anieticau Bishops, would certainly
never have attended at all had they understood
that it was to be excluded.
Not finding It in express terms on the pro
gramme, they first succeeded. at the preliminary
meeting, in making the programme open to
amendment, as well as to the introduction, of new
matter. Then, on three or four of the inter
vening days, a number of the Colonial Bishops
met for consultation. But by conferring with
leading English Bishops also, the difficulties of
the question were made so apparent that the
Bishop of Cape Town was persuaded to accept
the appointment of a committee to consider anew
the whole difficulty from the beginning. When
the matter came up in this shape in the Council,
he made a noble and unflinching speech, uphold
ing as fearleisly as ever the righteous necessity
of ale course that has been pursued in South
60 6\
Afri .
Th
. ishop of Vermont then moved as, a sub
stitute preamble and resolution which comes
straight p to the mark on the whole Colenso
question urging its adoption as the true course.
The Bish p of 'Salisbury supported him with a
i
whole-he ted singleness and boldness, worthy
of all ho or. Other Bishops took the same
ground,.a d not One Word was said by any ono
against th correctness ot the position taken by
the Bishop of Vermont. But the Bishop of St.
David's rose and stated that, the Archbishop had
pleded himself to him that the Colenso question
should not be acted on in the Conference; and
he appealed to "lhe honor" of the Archbishop to
say whether this were not so.
The Archbishop said that it was so, and that to
act indirectly on the question of Dr. Colenso
would be the breach of an honorable understand
ing:: It was iutended.to convey this understand
ingtin those worde of the invitation which said
that the metting would of course not' be compe
tent to make declarations of doctrine; but this
phrase was unfortunately too vague to convey
the full strength of the "understanding;" for the
question in South Africa Is not only one of doc
trine, but of fact, and canon. and civil law.
. . .
After what bad been said by the Archbishop,
however. It was seen that to push the matter
against the engagements or the distinguished
prelate who issued the invitations. was not advi
sable, and the matter dropped, the Bishop of
Vermont making a closing- speech on the sense
of duty which bad compelled him to make his
motion. But the thing would not rest. On the
last day. the Bishop of St. Andrew's earnestly
appealed to the Bishop of St David's to waive
his 'understanding" with the Archbishop. in or
der Pp introduce a declaration• on the present
status of Dr. Colenso, drawn up.by the Bishop of
Oxford, to be introduced and acted on. But the
Bishop of St. David's persisted in maintaining
his ground.
It was then produced as a papbrsigned "by the
Bishops assembled at Lambeth." the words "in
Conference" being omitted; and it was at once
signed by all the American and Colonial Bishops,
and, we believe, by all or nearly ail the rest, the
act being done in the same room and during the
continuance of the session.
Several of the more important matters have
been referred to committees: and a future meet
ing of the council. as contemplated in the con
cluding resolution of the programme
(which resolution was cordially adopted) is
clearly in the minds and hearts of all. As to the
debates. further than the meagre • details
we have given. we can say little. except that
the Bishops of Oxford. London. St. David's, Cape
Town. and others, took prominent and influen
tial part in the discussions: and the Bishop of
New Zealand in particular, made a speech to
wards the close, which. for outspoken boldness,
earnestness. and the powerful expression of deep
convictions as to the crisis now drawing near in
the Church of England, formed a striking and
elose of a meeting which is the open
in of a new era in the history of the Communion
of the Church of England. At the end the Gioriu
was sung. the assistant Bishop of In
diana letidity.x in the chaunt that is so familiar to
us all in the Church of Amerlea.
From the final business meeting on Friday—
though it was nearly five o'clock in, the afternoon
of a laborious and exciting dny—the Archbishop
and a large number of the Bishops went to St.
Janics's Hall. where a c , ,,HYrxrizione meeting had
been advertised to meet the Bishops at three
o'clock, as it was supposed their session would
close at two. But after waiting more than two
hours there was still a large gathering at the Hall,
which welcomed very warmly every Bishop that
entered. The Archbishop presided, and-in a few
happy remarks stated the leading object of the
meeting. which was the presentation of an ad
dress of welcome to the American, Scottish and
Colonial Bishops present, on the [hat of the S. P.
G. The address was read by their able Secretary,
the Rev. Mr. Bullock.
The Archbishop then called on the Bishops of
Vermont, New Zealand, Cape Town, London, On
task,. Rhode Island. Louisiana, Oxford, and
others, who all made brief but appropriate
speeches. Specially delightful was the protracted
and enthusiastic applause that greeted the noble
Bishop of Cape town That "Confessor of the
Faith," as one of the other speakers called him—
an applause that seemed at first appearance:as if
It would never end, and was repented at every
mention of his name, us well as again and again
during his speech, in the course of which he re
cognized warmly the steady Support he had re
ceived from the American Bishops.
The Bishop of Oxford, too, in his most happy
speech, said that they "had not looked in the
faces of their _American hrethren fe n othingsP
and he carried all hearts with him in speaking
of the boldness of the Archbishop in calling so
unprecedented a- meeting, and of the power of
his patience, gentleness and sweetness in ruling
it and bringing it to so successful a termination.
After the speeches were over, and the Arch
bishop had given his blessing. some time was de
voted to pleasant conversation.

The sermon, which was admirably appropriate,
was preached by the Bishop of Montreal. The
Archbishop acted as celebrant in the Holy Com

Gospel by the Bishop of Vondon. and the Bishop

I should scarcely undertake to report from
London English opinions on Garibaldi. The men
who make opinion are out of London. But I re- .
ceive this morning three notes—one from Sina

dria—and I gather out of them a few sentences
for friebds in .America. These were written atter
the arrest: - f ought first to, quote a letter of the
22d at Axezzo :
"We are here, actually lodged, in Syudie's
house. Splendid reception. olunteors all iu

"None of Garibaldi's personal friends believe
in arrest. I do. Crispi, assures me -that it will
take place, since what Itatazzi leaves undone.
Napoleon will do."
From Slualunga comes a note. dated 2-Ith. 7
A. 111.—" I have just telegraphed you. Twenty
