deplorable part of the affair " to him and his allies,
that in Piedmont, in Reiland, or elsewhere, the re-
presentative* of the peage should speak in defame of
civil or national rights, or censure the ouirearillemee
of the Bishop of ROM. The POPI is right oviodst
'on this point, fee sot only were all the dopotilo
to when be dkilio rapturously applauded;
orators en thee*. side of the question wren El
lily Lathed at, whenever they attempted the seisms
fares of decidist-esseksr interests by art/ meats de-
duced from the ISOM se the church. " Narita" and
" jlarifa proirmotite ore the regular observations
annexed by the popoilm to exhibitions of this kind.
Pros IX. is kaisers tie he Intensely susceptible to ridi-
cule; and if be boo go the length of excommuni-
'-‘e the Sardimians,-It will probably be in revenge
melt " lavildog so consumedly" at his pre-
Alone.
Not indeed that Prue IX. dislikes parliaments or
parliamentary °ratan, when the church can turn
them to good amount. The French Assembly stands
high in his good graces; and he bas sent ell sorts
of nicknacks--madals, rosaries, and relics—to that
" ferocious bellwether" the Count de MoNraxxstelax,
as testimonies of his esteem and gratitude. By-the-
bye, the count is at this moment at Rome, it is
alleged, for the special purpose of consulting how the
power of France may be most effectively brought to
bear oa the tisedisien states, to compel their submis-
sion to the decrees of Rome.
Still more decisive as regards the temper of the
POPE, and the political inferences that most be drawn
.from it, is the notice he takes of the refusal of the
sacraments to the dying Barra Rose. Far from
expressing the slightest compunction at or diaappro-
bation of that transaction, Pius IX. gives the most
energetic expression to his approval of it. "These
outrages," says he, meaning the arrest of the Arch-
bisho2s of &maxi and TURIN, for writing pastoral
lettere, ordering the clergy to disregard the new law,
" were soon aftw„;mwes by one still more grave,
when a noble personage, known to all as having been
one of the promoters of the law above mentioned, and
who had refused to acknowledge his fault therein, was
judged by the authority of the Archbishop of TURIN
unworthy to partake the holy sacrament." One
knows not whether to be most amused or horrified at
the audacity with which every political act (for if one,
why not all ?) in the life of &deputy or a minister of state,
is subjected to the censure of the church, pronounced
in articulo mortis, under penalty of eternal damnation.
This one transaction, thus approved in principle and
openly justified by the Holy See, amounts to n
short of claiming absolute control over the p:tthS
opinions and conduct of all who acknowledge his
authority. If SANTA Rosa be refused the meramests
one day, why not Lord BEAUMONT, or Mr. Bum, or
any catholic member of either of oar houses of par-
liament, the next; aye, or even the Count de MONTA-
LamBERT himself, if ever he should refuse to carry oat
the injunctions of the power whose d.ooted champion
he is ? There is absolutely no political qualm de-
btted by men, in which the casuistry of em
slfra-
montane bishop might not make out that the Womb
of the church were involved, and for which be
not call foe areciustation when be caught any
gnished politician of his creed at grip with the =fig
of Terrors.
The withdrawal of national education from the ex-
clusive control of the bishops forms the last item of
Pops Pros's charges against the Piedmontese govern-

mint.
We must not omit to notioe a phrase in the con-
cluding queeiconciliatory paragraphs, with which
this collet+, del Papa Pio is sugared over. The King
of SARDINIA, designated in the opening paragraph
"as our dear son in Christ," is described in the
cloning one by the uncomplimentary phrase of "the
Prince who rev/as at Turin!" It is impossible to
look upon this as a mere accident. Bat what inter-
pretation ought to be pisoed on it ? Does PIES IX.
contemplate dethroning VICTOR EIUNOIL ER well as
excommunicating him P Or does he rather hint at
the possible disruption of the ties which bold the
Sardinian States together P The latter, from the
wettest, appears mart probable. A partition of the
dominions of the house of S troy ; France taking
Savoy ; Austristaking Piedmont, and perhaps Genoa;
and the POPE himself, ar his host at Caserta, taking
the Island of Sardinia would be a highly acceptable
event to every member of the new holy alliance,
which the apathy of England, the teeshery of
France, and the dissensions of Germany, have allowed
to assume so threatening an septet to the liberties of
Europe, whether civil or religions.
