From the Western Christian Advocate.

Pope,y in France and Naly.-Acorres-
pondent of lions Herald, now in Europe,
furnishes very interesting accounts OF the
state of the Roman Catholic religion. tie
affirms, respecting the papal church. IN
France, that the political tendencies OF the
times, since the first revolution. had been
all against it; that its priests are sceP'cs'
and adhere to it only for their salaries;
few of the higher classes sustain IT. only tor
its influence in restraining the people; the
lowest Of the people only, yield to it through
ignorance and superstition, and that the
improvements in education &C., will soon
destroy their regard for it; that its churches
are deserted, its fables laughed at, its priests
respondent; and that the only support up
on which it yet leans (ts connection with
the state) is to,tering beneath it. The
Able de La Mennas, who endeavored 10
persuade the pope and clergy to abandon
the peculiarites of their system to no Pur.
pose, has left the Roman church, and has
turned the efforts of his mighty genius and
extensive attainments against The church of
Rome, in work entitled "The Affairs Of
Rome" In this he employs the following
language:
"You feel at Rome kind Of vague,
melancholy, oppressive sadness. You
would go there TO die, not to live, for Of life
there is scarcely spark. No movement
except the movement of the thousand petty
interests which crawl and bleat in tho dark
ness, like worms upon the floor ofthe tomb.
The government and the people appear
to you like spectres Of past ages. The
queen city. seated in the midst Of desert,
has become the city Of death. x
Repose, idleness, sleep, interrupted from
time to time by shows which move the
senses, from the happiness Of this people;
who yet retain germs Of a nobler and more
energetic character. There is no oppor-
turity for patriotism; nothing to call forth
noble deeds, nothing social; the established
government makes no account, in its low
calculations, of the soul Of man. Is this
alnation? Is this a country? Italy! Italy!
thine ancient dead arise; on the sides Of the
Apprentices the shepherds behold them, with
a sad brow, and eyes covered with the dust
of the sepulchre fastening their proud looks
on that land once so glorious. so free; and
as if they did not recognize it, shaking their
heads with bitter and horrible smile, they
lie down again in the tomb! y, =
The voice of the sovereign pon;itf,, which
once thewhole world needed, has been, it
must be confessed, take the nations togeth-
er, like the voice Of one crying in the
wilderness. Look only at the most Catho.
lie countries. Is Ireland less attached to
what are called her rights? What has been
seen, and what is still seen in Spain and
Portugal? Do any party concern them
selves about Rome and her Dogmatical
prescriptions? Who there dreams Of send
