FOREIGN' CORRESPONDENCE LEriErt imam ROME. feorrtepondence of the MIMI. Evening Bulletin.] RomE, Italy, AuguSt sth, 1870.-11,ome, I fancy,is the most interesting place in all EuropO at this time, just because we bate so much local news that is exciting, and keeps us occupied iu the time which intervenes between the tele grams from the seat of war. This is one of the most remarkable moments of contemporaneous history. Rome is placed in snarl questionable position that her rulers hardly know on what reed to rest. Two parties have decided for Prussia. Self-preservation—not principle— unfortunately, rules in such a community as this. The_Clergy and Iltazzitd. . These parties are totally opposed to each other: one is composed of a portion of the. clergy : the other is the Mazzinian clique: Their reasons for taking the side of PrusSia are just as wide apart as their political principles. Necessity makes strange bedfellows, you see. The clericals are frightened at the departure of the French troops : and, like terrified children, as they are in many things mundane; they are resentful, and pronounce instantly for the ene mies of France. The Mazzinians rejoice over the departure of the hoops ; they hope and pray that France will be defeated, and watch anxiously for the first chance to seize on Rome and upset law • and order throughout Italy. Every day since the war beganotthe,:actual.preparations for 4 great encounter-4heSetWo parties have been • _rejoicing over-the telegraphic news of small, skirmishes which , have been reported always in favor of the PruSslans. Btit ; yesterday the un expected information, of thetaking of, Saar bruck by the French caused great consternation. The morning's telegram was scouted at, but: in the afternoon, when the 08ervatore Re s burno.Twhich-is-on-tbe'Prussian-sidennoutice the taking of Saarbruck by one French division ,against three Prussian ; divisions, , the discour agement was extreme. • The Piazza Colonna. - You all know the Piazza•Colonna. It is up the Corso.. The Chigi palace is on it, and in its centre is the cohunn erected to Marcus Aurelius Antoninus by the Roman Senate and people A. 1•74. The headquarters of the Army Staff is also on this Piazza, and in ancient times the Temple of Antoninus stood there. Every Thursday and Sunday evening the.milit rry bands.play for the public on the Piazza Colonna, and the place is jammed with people. The Piazza Monte Citorio, which is just behind the Colonna—where you go to have your passport riqd, and send oil telegrams of business, joy or sorrow—is also full, and the Corso too. The' neighboring cqtrt's (the --- Italian spells the word witlftwo T's) do a tine business, and the amount of talking that is done 'around the little tables which are set about on the sidewalks, might serve to stock a (lozen deaf and dumb asylums with words. The lemonade booths, too, have their patrons. These , and the cuff visitors are individuals well skilled in the questions of the . day, ac cording to their own opinions._ • Last . evening a friend went up to the Piazza Colonna to.notice the opinions of the public, and report them to me. It is a capital place to Piek - up local news and see in what quarter the rooster feathers of the various partisans blow. The Prussian adherents indulged in no mire boastings; the only talk was on the attitude France would take in case of obtaining com plete victory ! The Court of the Vatican, which was so dis couraged a few days ago, is a little encouraged now by news it has received from the Court of the uileries. Cardinal Bonaparte Cardinal Bonaparte, though a line actor, has not the bravery of Julius ;Caesar or "my uncle." The order for the departure of the French troops alarmed him greatly. He wrote to the Emperor and Empress two pressing letters on the evacuation of Civita Vecchia, and wished to know "if France in tended to abandon Rome as a free pasture to the revolutionists." As a relative of the Em peror, and Cardinal of the Roman Church and Court, he had a double right to interrogate the Imperial couple. The Ediperor replied in stantly. The following has been given me as the most important passage in this letter from Louis Napoleon to the Cardinal : "There is no idea of abandoning Rome, but the intention is to avoid possible contingencies. France is engaged by honor to defend the Holy See, which she has done for so many centuries. Pius IX. may trust to the Emperor's word. A Congress will follow the war, in which the Roman question will be decided seriously, and the Papacy will be established with all the conditions of necessary vitality." "Nothing," said the friend who reported this to me, " can be more explicit, inure prudent, more wise than this reply." "Very prudent, very measured," said another visitor-who came in - after my Freneli'friendliair . left. The new comer is a high official at the Papal Court, one of the most ardent advocates f Infallibility. When 1 told him of the Em peror's letter, he sneered. " Very prudent, !" are repeated. " But take notice nothing is said of Home. Only the Papacy !" The Pope's next Residence. And that is a point really to be noticed : for, in the event of a Congress deciding the Roman question, it is very likely Rome will be left, to the Romans ) .-andthe Pope established again at. Avignon.; for the Aviguonese are- extremely anxious to have the Popo come to their city. Seventy-one years the Popes lived at Avignon, from l:105 to 1::76. Six Popes held the holy Se'• in that French city. Clement V., known best for his shameful extermination of the Templars; John XXII.; Benedict XII. ; Cle ment VI.; Innocent VI., and Urban V. It was Gregory XI. who was induced to leave Avignon and return to Rome by the spirited letters -of St. Catherine of Sienna. The description given of the Eternal City at the period of the Papal retufn 13711 is deplorable, . gone-throta many reveres during_ this seventy years' absence. The republic of. Rienzi had risen and fallen ; the city was a lamentable heap of hovels and ruins; cattle pastured in some of the churches; the whole length of the Tiber, where it passes through the town, was a pestiferous marsh, and the Champ de Mars, in this day crowded with PoPulartelai oAe of the busiest parts of Rome, was Worse than the Tiber shores; it was a swamp full of evil and deadly The ',/P o Paitti4;46o' '640/11 two millions, had fallen to twenty thousand! Since that epoch (1:17t;) the city has -,proTgr4 , ll materially, but now the 'Hahail p'eople again demand it for a Capital., It reniainste be seen if its future history will ha like the pas'. An Asylum in England. In case of 'a IMlzzinian invasion, the Papal troops will make resistance. But if the Italian troops 'take me step towards Rome the Pope will leave instantly. Two state cars and en- gines are kept in constant- readiness at the station. Two English vessels are cruising oil Civita Vecchia. In the present state of feeling at the Papal Court againSt France, the Pope prefers to accept the hospitality of England. Malta has again been 'offered to Ills Holipess 11V the English Government within the last week. We can easily imagine the mortifica tion Italy, France and Austria wilt feel-to see the Head of their Church seeking an asylum with England: England has taken up the Office of 'Grand Mediator General, and this questionable sNmpathy she shows for the Pope ih his troubles—troubles which have been caused by his own mistaken, unhappy obstinacy —is about as sincere as that nation extended to the Southern States ditrilig our civil war. But the - Pope is still at the Vatican - , and every Catholic must hope that if His Holiness leaves, Home it will he to go to a residence under some Catholic_ power. The PoMitical Government has already ar- rayed the troops which are to replace the French. Two battalions of Zouaves, under Col. Charrette, the hero: of Montana, are to be sent to the garrison of Viterbo. A bcidY of cav-* airy left for that post Wednesday evening. At Civitn Vecchia, besides the, detachment .at chasseurs, there is the headquarters of the Papal Zouaves, with some cavalry and artillery. The 'Roman garrison is composed of two bat talions of Zonaves, two of the Roman Legion, two of Carabiniers, detachments of native sol diers of the line and chasseurs, called the Rural 1111 - titia=-Ziyari .'Stt.ttiTTEs - the - Romatremunton - i people nickname- them—this nickname means literally.nle.ct _cigars. Besides.these, there are the cavalry, artillery, gensdarmerie and armed ponce. Yesterday - morning, about 2 o'clock, •I was reading the interesting history of Sixtus Quint, the great Pope, who has left a stronger mark on Rome than any other modern ruler. While my mind was full of the 'Papal trotibles during the latter part of the sixteenth cen tury, when its head rulers re-established a sys tem which is likely now to send the Church into another Babylonish captivity, I heard the distant sound of cavalry. The present was forgotten. 1 thought only of Philip IL of Spain and Henry 11. of France, of the destruc tion of Rciman brigand gentlemen, the Picco lominio and Malatestas, by this bold, vigorous Pope. Lwalkedikrough along suite_ of rooms . on the Babuino side of the house to a saloon in which is a high balcony window opening to the floor, and looking down the full-length and breadth of the Piazza di Spagna. The French Evaeuation. Far off in the distance behind the Virgin column were the horses and their xiders. The new moon was going down, but the stars shone brilliantly. 1 could see the cavalry sol diers plainly as they wound around the column, stretched across the long Piazza, tiled up the Via Babuino, and went off out to the Porto ilel_Popolo. It was a beautiful sight. I counted them as they tramped under the balcony—there were one bundled and twenty. The horses moved slowly, not off a. walking pace ; the sol diers and Wheels sat leisurely on their. saddles, one hand holding the reins, the other resting on their thighs. They were prepared for a long march, holsters and blankets strapped firmly on, and were taking it coolly inthe be ginning. After the cavalry tramp was out of hearing some artillery wagons rumbled slowly by; then, fifteen minutes after, 1 heard the sharp gallop of a single horse in the distance; a general officer rode swiftly up the Piazza and was soon out of sight. As he passed the coniers.where the Croce and Babuino join the Piazza, just under my balcony, I saw him return the salute of four soldiers who seemed to be stationed there on guard in place of the usual policeman. Au hour after some commissary wagons rolled by. I could not sleep; there was so much to think of both in the past and present of this grand old Home. You knew the fine view which lay spread out before me. The fading moon light struggled with the dawn. The towers of the Trinita dei Monti Church, which stands at the head of the Spanish steps, lay against the sky as buildings do in fine pictures—soft, mel low and almost vapory. The long line of convent buildings attached to the church, which seem like some grim for tification in the daytime, were made more in harmony with its occupants by the dim, mys terious light, and were as peaceful as the band of nuns and young girls that were sleeping within. In a few months these poor Sisters may be scattered to the four quarters of Eu "rOpe;-Seilatigii-asyltiniS;•and AiibtpOld - COnVent , no longer belie its looks, but be a veritable bar racks and soldiers be camped in the church! The water tinkled in the boat fountain, in the centre of tithe Piazza—the Acqua Felice named for Sixtus Quint his famous preaching name when he wa.s the monk 'Prate Felice. The sweet, cool plash of its fall was pleasant to bear on the August night, especially with one's thoughts as full as mine with the memories of the bloody, tku re struggles of the past and the impending dangers of' the present. Beside the fountain . i shone. the Mops in„ the lemonade and some soldiers stood therii drinking and tf:lking politics undoubtedly with the booth-Preiers. Except these, there was no other sign cl life—the whole great city was silent as the dead. The Fine Arts. Everything goes on as usual in Rome, buy ing and selling, living and dying. The Bellotti Bon actors are still playing at the Maitioleum of Augustus, and the Arabs at the Sferristedo upon the Barberini grounds.

The French -11inister remains in Rome. Abandonment of the Pope. At last the French are leaving the Pontifical territory. Whether they will go .to . the last. man, and that one bearing with him the French flag, is what we do note yet know.

It, is said that,the sway of Christ's Vicar, as he calls himself, is a good deal disorganized on account of the uneasy state of fe'eling affiong officers and men of Ger man and other northern origin; caused by the war of which their countries are the theatre. The Roman Court has all along protested againSt the possibility of such a 'step being taken by France as the abandonment - of its ter ritory, and it now sets its back up with rage, mingled with a good dearof anxiety. But all in vain; for France will (11.4 take care of its own immediate and - paramOnnt interests. We shall watch with attention the . progress of events, and wait to see what. may transpire at Rome. The organs of clerical opinion denounce the Icnperiai.t with - g - reat,:violonce for this abandonment of the Holy Father' to tlie tender mercies of his Italian fellow-country men.. ,The Emperor is, tatuite a N ab , as sumed title of "oldest son of ,the Church," charged with perfidy, and iitOaced with the judgments of heaven. But if such punish ments of individuals or-society are--ever suc cessfully invoked, Rome itself, at this moment, may be taken as a proof of their effects.

IS, we tail the battle of Untvelotte. It began at 10 A. DI. and lasted until 0 I'. M. Until noon it was an artillery duel. The French lines stretched along the hills, covering two roads leading from Metz to Ver• dun, and having on their right a farm-grouse known as La Villette, with a walled garden, which they held in great force. A sunken road led straight from Gravelotte to the centre their position. On the French left a road wound over the crest of the hill, on which twelve earthworks Thad been thrown up. Eight mitrailleuses, be sides artillery, were posted to command every approach to this strong position, and their guns swept the crowning hills ong which the Fiench lines ran,and up a valley reaching from Gravelotte eastwardly, by which the Prussians had to advance. Behind this line of strong defence lay Fort St. Quentin, completely protecting the French rear. The position at first held by the Prussians was to the east of the French and facing towards _Metz, occupying the northernmost matt from Metz to Verdun, and reaching over the chain of bills lying between Gravelotte and Rezon vile. The result of the artillery contest was to compel the French to abandon their most advanced positions, and the line by which they hoped to cover both roads was pierced and they were driven back. . 'At - noon the Pnissians were able to push for ward their artillery. The French, finding their'guns unable to resist the weight of the PrusSian fire and the Prussian batteries, were, in a position shortly after noon on either side of Gravelotte, so that neither of the roads which at that point branch.off to Verdun north and southwesterly were any longer open to the French army. • , • - • • , I reached the field j ust as the forward move ment of the Prussians had been accAnnp . lished. , The ground was faiorabie-foe a good view of both positions, and it vas 'apparent at a glance ihat-the fr',•teticiihad:•alreadyTrelinii 'fished a of deferke important to them, tactically. as w ell as strategetically.

The attack was Made in large force by hlans, cuirassiers and: hussars, but they were at first Without an infantry support and could make no serious impression on the position. naturally strong and .still held in force by all the army of the French; but half an hour later, it being flow nearly 4 o'clock P. M., a portion of the Third Prussian Corps had come upon the ground. " The iniantry regiments were formed as fast as they came into position, from which a serious attack was to be directed upon what ap peared to be theltey of the French linea. At 7 I'. bl. the Thirty-third Regiment of the Prussian hue was launched against the position which the cit - tdry. had - failed roach. moved ftirWard with' the -uttriost-determina tion, but _the French by' this time .hasbrein forced their defence more - strongly 'than.' the Prussians had; and. they 'still - Mitnumliered their assailants and steadily maintained the second line which they had occupied.

M.—Telegrams of Saturday morning have only just been received in Paris from the scene of war around Metz. The conduct of Bazaine causes the gravest - ay. - piebensions. It was previously understood that he was so situated as to march without opposition on Metz or Verdun as he preferred, and now be seems to be inactive. It requires nineteen hours for a message to pass between him and MacMahon, and their communications are frequently interrupted altogether. • The French troops in the battle of August 18 again found themselves without ammunition.

LoNnoN, August 20.—The news of the de struction 'of the Bois de Boulogne and Vin cennes is confirmed. The people protested, but it was declared.a/ - milltary necessity for the defence of the city, and to afford a clean sweep and view. Count de Palikao decided on this in the council of Ministers to-day.

Various manufacturers of arms throughout rance are wor ing wi ex reme and send daily to the government large qnanti ties of arms:, the purpose heing to equip all who wish to go_ to. the front. The Garde Mobile of the Seine has returned from Chalons, and Is ericamped at St. Maur Vincent. • There were two councils of Ministers yeS.- terday at the Tuileries. General Trochu was present on both occasions, General Trochu to-day publishes a letter ex plaining how be desires to anl. the , people. He says the idea of maintaining , order by force of the. bayonet and sword in Paris, which is so agitated and given up to grief, fills him with horror and disgust. The maintenance of order by the ascendancy of patriotism freely_expressed by a knowledge of the evident danger of the coun try, fills me with live and serenity, but this problem is arduous, and I cannot solve it alone, but I can with the aid of those having such sentiments: That is what I term moral. aid. The moment may arrive when malefactors, seeing us defending the city, will seek, to pillage, who:are — licmest - must --- seim - them: - The error of all .. governments I have ever known is to consider force the tiltimato power only. The only decisive'power in a moment of danger is Moral force, The Emperor has arrived here. Mac3lalion and Canrobert arealso here. In the affair at_ Lonetieville,on Simday, the Emperor narrowly t.Lscaped being killed or captured. It was merely a reconnoissance on the Prussian side,. but couducted_with incredible daring. They .pushed straight up to the Imperial headquar ters, and their presence was first announced by cannon shots. The Prussian bullets' were whistling past the end of the Emperor's escort before-they couid,gei_on borsebacki,andnOths Mg but the most precipitate retreat saved him. Yesterday there was almost a panic in the camp. Distant cannonading was heard, or believed to be heard, in the forenoon. Our correspondent at ChalcinS, on Thursday, August 18, says : LoNnoN, August 21.—The Tribune corres pondent., writing from St. Petersburg on August 1..2., says the Russian , declaration of neutrality is sincere in itself, and will be more effectually observed, because Russia is not ready for war, and cannot quickly get ready. The Czar is personally favorable to the Prus sians, but the popular feeling throughout Russia is strongly anti-German. LONDON, August 20.-11, .is stated that there ate now more than 400,000 Germans between the Rhine and Paris. The Prussian reserves in readiness at various posts amount to 200,000 men. The story started by the Pails :Patric to the effect that Prince Frederick Charles had been Wounded is untrue. The official organ says to-day: "Although Germany is losing her noblest sons, she has ibis comfort tokno_wthat the war is not in vain, that it is against a race known to our forefathers as full of arrogance and inso lence, and which has robbed us of our fairest provinces.__ God.. .enable .our ..King. to establish a durable wall in mid Europe in the shape of a united Germany, the keystone - of tine morality and freedom."
