is presented to the Emperor. The Monarch is
anxious to be acquainted with the wishes of our
country. Let its raise our voice in common with
our countrymen. We trust that you will listen to
us, and will sincerely join with them for the com-

consent to cede voluntarily to the usurpers the pro-
vinces. which they have usurped from our Pontifical
domain.

They were carrying their unheard of impious
audacity to demanding that the Apostolic See,
which ever was and ever shall be the rampart of truth
and justice, should sanction the principle that that
which was unjustly and violently seized and stolen,
should quietly pass into the honest possession of
the iniquitous aggressors; and that we should con-
sent to the establishment of the false principle, that
successful injustice should not prejudice the sanctity
of right. Such a pretension is at variance with
those solemn declarations which have just been
enunciated in the great and illustrious Senate—
That 'the Pontiff is above all the representative
of moral force in human society." We could not,
therefore, subscribe to the deeds of these despoil-
ing Vandols, without violating the basis of that
moral discipline whose chief symbol and image on
earth we are acknowledged to be.
It is intelligible that they who are deceived by
error or overcome by fear, should give, counsels
in conformity with the unjust views of the dis-
turbers of civil society, and it must be clearly
understood that these troublers of social order
will be content with nothing but the absolute an-
nihilation of all authority, and the destruction of
all restraints of religion, morality, and justice.
Unhappily for society, these subversive agents,
however, have already succeeded, by their words
and deeds in perverting men's minds, in weaken-
ing the moral sense, and effacing all hatred of in-
justice. They direct all their efforts to persuade
their dupes that the rights invoked by honest
men are but unjust demands which deserved to
be denounced. Alas, it is but too true ! " The
earth mourneth and fadeth away, the world long
wisheth and fadeth away, the haughty people of
the earth do languish. The earth also is defiled
under the inhabitants thereof; because they have
transgressed the laws, changed the ordinance,
broken the everlasting covenant." But in the
depth of thiS profound obscurity which God has
permitted for his inscrutable purposes, we turn with
confiding hope towards the Father of all mercies
for consolation in our sorrows and adversity. It
is He, venerable brethren, who has spread amongst
you that spirit of concord and humanity which
increases every day amongst you; so that,
closely and unanimously united with us, you are
bound up with us, resolutely resigned to suffer
with us the fate which the secret designs of Pro-
vidence have reserved for us. The holy prelates of
the Christian universe, who preach the glad tidings
,of faith and hope to the world,!point out to people
the path which they should follow in this darkness,
and inspire the Catholic nations with that sentiment
of equity which enables them to form a clear judg-
ment on our sovereign right. This admirable con-
currence of prayers amongst the Catholic nations,
these significant proofs of love, so unanimously
shown to us in such different forms (which was
never seen in previous ages), clearly prove to those
of the right mind how needful it is to turn con-
stantly to the throne of the blessed Prince of the
Apostles the light of the universe, which has "ever
preached the dogma of truth, and which will never
cease until the end of time to teach the immutable
principles of eternal justice. So utterly untrue is
it that the people of Italy have abstained from these
striking testimonies of love and filial respect for the
Apostolic See, that hundreds of thousands of them
daily send us letters full of affectionate respect not
to counsel the reconciliation which has been de-
manded, but to sympathise with us in our suffer-
ings, and to express their horror of the criminal
and sacrilegious spoliation of our temporal posses-
sions.

Under these circumstances we hereby declare,
openly and loudly, that nothing shall ever induce
us to consent to this reconciliation, and we make
this solemn declaration before God and man. How-
ever, since we are appointed to the functions here
on earth of Him who perished for sinners, and to
pray for their forgiveness, we know how to forgive
those who hate us, sand to pray for them, that by
the help of Divine grace they may return to the
right path, and thus become entitled to the bene-
diction of Christ's Vicar upon earth. Therefore,
with a full heart do we pray for them, and are
disposed to forgive" them and to bestow our bene-
diction upon them when they shall have returned
to the right path ; but meantime we cannot con-
sent to remain passive the while, as those who
are disregardful of human calamities ; we cannot
but be deeply afflicted at the persecutions of
those who suffer for the cause of justice. There-
fore, in deep sorrow,' do we pray to God and fulfil
our duty in instructing and condemning those who
have been taught and condemned by our Holy
Church, for such is the mandate which we have
received from our Saviour Jesus Christ.

Thus we refuse our consent to injustice, but
when pardon is asked of us, we grant it freely.
And that we may grant this pardon in a manner
worthy of our holiness and of our pontifical title,
we bend the knee before God, and hold in our em-
brace the triumphal banner of our Redeemer. We
humbly supplicate Jesus Christ to inoculate us
with his charity, that we may freely forgive, as He
himself forgave His enemies, before giving up His
soul to the hands of His Eternal Father.

We earnestly beseech Him, that after the for-
giveness which He may grant in the darkness
wherewith the earth is now overwhelmed, He may
enlighten the souls pf his enemies, that they may
repent them of their horrible crimes, and that by
the means of His infinite mercy He may bring back
the lost sheep to His fold.
Whatever be the inscrutable designs of Provi-
dence for the future, we implore Jesus Christ, in
the•name of His Church, that he may judge the
cause of his Vicar, which is also the cause of His
Church; that he may defend it, and make it glo-
riously triumph against his foes ; we beseech Him
to restore order and tranquillity to society, not so
sorely troubled ; and that He may restore peace by
the truth of justice, which can come from Him
alone.

There is but one God who can combat with us
and for us, in tho convulsions which have shaken
Europe and the wide world to its centre ; and also
those to whom are entrusted the arduous task of
directing the destinies of nations.

The remainder of this allocution is but a repe-

lion of the above tiresome tissue of maledictions,

imprecations, and b lasphemous pretensions. He
complains, that the Church of the. Messiah has been
despoiled by the" Revolution ;" that rulers and the
ministers of religion have been expelled ; that
churches have been sacked, and costly vessels of
gold and silver, .and goodly raiments, have been
the prey of the revolutionary spoilers.

STREET TR.4MWAYS.-IMPO.RTANT

PROSECUTION.

The adjourned inquiry into the summons taken
out by Mr. Alexander Beresford Hope against Mr.
Train for breaking and injuring a certain road
called Uxbridge-road was resumed yesterday before
Mr. Yardley, at Marylebone Police-court.
Mr. Sleigh attended in support of the summons,
and Mr. Rochfort Clarke for the defendant.

On the previous occasion evidence was given by
Mr. Hope, who stated that the tramway was a
great nuisance and injurious to public vehicles and
carriages, besides being a great hindrance to public
traffic. His view was borne out by Mr. Stephen-
son, of Pall-mall, civil engineer.
On the case being called on some discussion took
place between the worthy magistrate. Mr. Sleigh,
and Mr. Clarke, as to whether the infliction or no
infliction of a fine would settle the question, when
Mr. Sleigh said he thought it was to the interest of
his client that so important a case should be adju-
dicated upon by his worship, and wished to have
the case gone on with. The first witness called by
the learned gentleman was—
Thomas Clark, a cab proprietor of Mile-end, who
said—l know the Uxbridge-road. I have driven
over it. The tramway is a bad thing as regards
horses and carriage traffic.. • I am sure it is an ob-
struction. Have seen the iron rails , laid down.
Drove over it in my own horse and cab. It caused
my horse to fall down. I had a fare going to Hyde
Park. I got on it, and before I could get off it
made my horse turn a complete somersault. This
was at half-past nine at night. As an experienced
person I think it an obstruction.
By Mr. Clarke—l have not seen other obstruc-
tions than what I have mentioned. I have seen the
rails.
Mr. Yardley—l may tell you that I have seen the
rails along the road, and have travelled backward
and forward, and have also seen the carriages made
for the line.
Mr. Clarke—My question was connected with
quite another object. (To witness)—Where was
your horse when it fell ?
Witness.—On its backside. (Laughter.) He fell
just off the stones after getting from Hyde Park
11e had got two or three yards off the stones. It
is not usual for cab horses to fall.
After a short discussion between the learned
gentlemen and the magistrate, it was decided that
his worship, should give his decision next week.
