JUSTICB IN SWEDEN.-Mr. Lindahl, the editor of tho Frederneslaitdel, a newspaper published in Stockholm, has been recently condemned to death by the axe, for having falsely and with evil intentions accused Mlle. Mendelsshon of an infamous crime. His counsel, Mr. C. (!. Uggla, has been condemned to one month's imprisonment, and to the interdiction, for having, with full knowledge, undertaken the defense of nu unjust cause. The Darlington New Era, of thc 23d instant, states that, since New Year's day, the freedmen have shown, as a general thing, great anxiety to get employment; and, in mosteases, are perfectly willing to sign contracts. The number of idle negroes about our streets is very perceptibly di? minishing. Much of this is due to thc good advice they have received from those high in authority amongst INTFUESTINO, IF TRUE.-Thc Pope, it seems, no longer conceals from himself the impending doom of his temporal dominions. Tn addressing the "French troops on the 1st of Janu? ary, he expressed the fear that the enemies of thc Church would go to llome aller the departure of the French troops. So, -it seems, all parties in Italy are agreed that this withdrawal of. the French troops will be very soon followed by a revolution in Rome, and a demand of the Ho? mans for annexation to Italy.
