stated the points of right and fact. But it is else-
where than his book that we shall be able to find
any future information respecting the time and the
means of execution.

The celebrated traveller and naturalist Junghuhn,
well known for his curious researches on botany,
fossils, and ethnography, has just died at Java.
His agitated life did not shake his love for science.
He was at first a surgeon in the Prussian army, but

went to Algeria, where he acted as medical assistant
in the Fure;gn Legion. He joined subsequently
the Dutch service. 11,:: had gathered a multitude

His Holiness the Pope,

The following is the teat of the reply made by the
Pope to the congratulatory address delivered by
Cardinal Mattel, on the occasion of the anniversary
of the Pontiff's accession :—" The crown which the
Lord has deigned to place on the head of the most
humble of his servants has become the object of the
plots and artifices of the enemies of the Holy See.
One part of those adversaries have never belonged
to the Church against which they wage an implacable
war; another part, after having had the happiness
of being born within its pate, have abandoned it to
make common cause with the former. By both of
them all means of attack are considered good, per-
secutions, violence, falsehoods, and calumnies. Like
Absolom at the gates of Jerusalem, they constantly
repeat that if the crown, of which they wish to de•
spoil the Vicar of Jesus Christ, stood on another
head, justice would be better dispensed, the people
would become freer and happier, and the golden age
would again flourish for all. I need not point out
the gross errors with which such reasoning abounds.
May those who make use of them have the heart
pierced not with the spear which went through that
of Absalom, but by a ray of divine grace, which
would make teem aware of the iniquity of their
actions, and show them the abyss of the eternity
which they approach, blind and deaf, without per-
ceiving the brink of it. And you who faithfully
assist me either in the administration of the shred
of state which has been left to me, or in the more
difficult one of the universal church, continue to
ar‘sist me with your fidelity and your devotedness
I do not arrogate to myself the gift of prophecy, but
although I do not see in the horizon any gleam of
hope or any probabili,y of human easisteecra I
nevertheless thank I can , fli. ra that our sufferings,
our resignation, and our prayers will in the end
merit for us from God those mercies which he is
sometimes long in granting, but which he never re-
fuses to those who serve Him with fear and love."
