PEACE TALK.
THE POPE'S ATTITUDE. ' TAKING FURTHER STEPS. Received August 8, 3 p.m. Rome, August 7. Certain monarchy have replied to the Pope's letter. Tliere is good authority for stating that the Pope is about to make more definite steps towards peace, and is inviting t!he co-operation of neutrals. A high ecclesiastic, in an interview, states that the . intervention was not premature. Everywhere the war was languishing, the German advance in Poland was not conclusive, and all the belligerants were wearied, especially the apparent victors. Tlie Pope had thus chosen well tiho moment for tlie ilrst step towards peace, following it up with words raoro energetic and efficacious.
II Corriere d'italia lias published a uotQ, that the Pope is working from a place which respects the right of nations, He does not advocate this and that for the people, not even for his own Italians, and his voice ought to resound as a solemn admonition to those desiring to impose peace without regarding the rights of oppressed peoples. Tlie paper commends this to the more careful consideration of Germany and every other nation that is experiencing remorse of conscience.
