numaN PRIESTS ON nu POPES TEMPOILLL

(From the Adepersdassce Beige.)

In onr recent reply to a rectification of M. the
Abbe Degnerry, the cure of the Madolsdne at Paris, we oh.
served bow wrong it would be to make the whole catholic
priesthood unworn.* far Ow &stria% that the Pope's
tinspovel sad spiritual powers are indissoluble. The fol-
lowing {otter, to which we are happy at being able to open
our °Gluteus, gives to our words an important confirmation :
" To the Editor in chief of the independonee Belge.
" Tuscany, Nov. 26.

" In the impression of the 20th instant of your estimable
journal, which has ' deasreed so wall of ' renascent

;'7To his Escallamey X ostipsor C 1 ..ti Jute, Bishop of

" Monsignors,—At this meisiet (II p.m.), after long
questioning of my conscience, I bare taken the resolution
of writing to you, for the purpose of placing in your heads
the charge of your viair-generaL I address you at this
hour, because to-morrow I most be detached from your per-
son, in possession of my full liberty, in order that all my
acts may leave a strictly private character, with no respon-
sibility devolving on your excellency.
'Ood is my lettuces, that I never abused my office for
political things, and that I have ever served your excel-
lency faithfully and religiously. To this end, I hope that
in your severe justice yyon will give me your testimony,
against every kind of ssaligeißy , to the irreprehensible °ovi-
duct I have dbserved since the day when I had the honour
of finding myself attached to your person.
" In speaking of me, perhaps many will call me hypo-
critical. And if by termini; me a hypocrite they mean
person that does not fully manifest all his sentiments and
opium's, then assuredly I was ,one. But if, on the con-
trary, the hypocrite is only the man whose words or acts
do not correspond with his sentiments, I defy any one in
the world to throw this charge in ray fans. I never affected
any sentimentality for the temporal power of the Pope,
because my deep and old convictions were opposed to it.
" I long struggled with myself before coming to a dea-
den on this step, and I could have wished to abstain from
all political manifestation out of respect to your excellency,
and on account of the must sincere gratitude and devited.
sem I entertain for yoe, bat the very urgent cry of love of
country has greater power over my heart Phan all the con-
siderations of this world.

" 1 am moreover grieved (and I truly beg your pardon
for it) at your having to suffer any embarrassment respect-
ing the chair of eloquence in your seminary, which with an
excess of goodness you deigned to confer cm me sad which
I quit so abruptly ; 1 nevertheless indulge in the hops that
it will be easy for you to find my successor.
" Art 4 now I have nothing to do but to kiwi your hand
respectfully in declaring what I am and ever shall be,
Of your excellency the very affectionate and obedient
servant, " CAWS PAOLO SPINOCCI.
" ' Pesaro, Nov. 3, 1850.'
" On the following day the Canes Spinuoci, on going to
deposit his ticket for the plebiscitum of the Marches, made
aloud the following declamation, which the municipal com-
mittee sitting at the polliordesk handed over to the ecru-
tineen, for their registration—a declaration which with the
foregoing letter has been published by all our journals, but
which no foreign journal to the best of my belief has re-
PoMiehed.
" With this vote which I deposit in tho urn of the
im-
mortal right of the peoples, whilst I reject, the
power of the Pope am contrary to the spirit ad letter
of the Compel, as pernicious to the interests of religion,
powerless to govern with prosperity te eamonwealth, and
as an eternal obstacle to the redemption ocr f Italy, I dechire
for Victor Emmanuel 11., a great king, a generous king, the
only king worthy of Italy.'
" I could instance, Sir, the Illustrious or aware names
(and among the latter my own) of a hart of ecclesiastics,
who by theiruets or declarations have saanifesied as opinioa
identical with that of the canon Spiaucci ; but I prefer con-
tain myself to mentioning to you the name of a pried who
knew how to distinguish himself and show himself such a
good catholic, that his bishop was able to entrust him
with the office of vicarieneral, the dignity of canoes, and
the chair of eloquence is hL ssaditary.
"The Abbe Daimon,' may ass, perhaps, in these theta
that the Principles he lan deem in his letter of Nov. 7 are
• little too exclusive, sad that there are priests who vene-
rate in the tops the august head of their religion, although
they rejeet hiss as • tensrond prince.

visited the bedsides of the wounded she was re-

saw One of Chose touching scenes rarely wit-
messed, but which do so much honour to our wen•
men nature. There were about twenty or thirty of
the Sounded Garibaldini, who had oome as a de-
potation from some five or six hundred of their sick
and wounded brethren, to express their gratitude
to her before she leaves Naples. A " Piciotto,"
scaresly up to* my elbow, whom I bays watched for
two mouths, then 013110 forward and presented
Madame Mario with bouquet, a letter, and a little
'packet. The letter was signed by nearly 600, and
alter some of the signatures I observed the word
us amputitto"—the poet fellows had signed with their
left hands ! A mug man whose head was still
ocisaff up then advanced, and taking from the
robot a small gold espial, pinned it on her bosom.

have been kept with the most rigid oorreotness—
Madame Mario found a deficiency of between 80 or

TROY OUR OWN

BEYROUT, Nov. 23.
On every aide I hear that Fuad Pacba is show-
ing more and more energy in the cause of
establishing order in Syria, and that those who
formerly hoped to escape the penalty of their
crimes are now hi the greatest fear and trem-
bling. Several Druse murderers of note have been
arrested at Heabeiya and Raaheiya, and are daily
expected here. The sister of Syad Bey Djos&blat
his been arrested, and is now on her way from
Sidon to Beyrout. She is accused of having directed
in person much of the massacres which took piste
at Himbeiya. Theta heavy day of reckoning for some
is near at hand is pretty evident, for Fuad Packs
has given orders that a guillotine be forthwith
erected in the public square. The trials of the
Druse sheiks are still going on, and what is most
wonderful of all, Fuad Paola has given directions
that the local Arabic newspaper may in future pub-
lish au account of each sitting of the tribunal. Also
that the same print may in future give publicity to
all general complaints, a thing unheard of in any
part of Turkey. lam bound to say that amongst
all reasonable men his excellency seems gaining
greatly, and daily, in estimation.
