THE "CHURCH" PROPERTY IN MEXICO
now THE ALEXANDRIA, GAZETTE.

ALEXANDRIA GAZETTE.
We have another move on the chessboard OF war.
The MEXICAN CHURCH is at last brought on the
tapis, and that, too, in an imposing manner. The
/" Union," the government official organ, in an ar
tcle which we regard as semi-ofhclal, comments
upon the fact that the Roman Catholic Church in
Mexico has volunteered to supply funds to the Mex
leans for the prosecution of he war, and bitterly
remarks OF the Catholics of Mexico that I" ii is for
! their own special political purposes-to retain
. their vast possessions, which impoverish the ma
tion-to sustain their own hierarchy, which lords
it over the people-to preserve their power which
weighs down the rest of the community into the
slough of ignorance and slavery-that they are
: thus solicitous and active" alt is a zeal, says
the Union, g for the mammon of unrighteousness-
: not for the welfare Of souls-which inspires and
: animates the Catholics of Mexico
With this MANIFESTO against the RELIGION
Of MEXICO, the government organ declares that,
under the present aspects Of the case il may be-
come matter of grave consideration, If the Church
continues to oppose peace, and furnish the fuel
: of war, whether the immense revenues OF the
s Church in Mexico SHALL DE LEFT UNTOUCHED
: whether they shall be suffered to remain at the
disposal Of the enemy and TO be applied to sustain
the war against us-whether justice and policy do
not equally dictate that they should at least be
sEaUEsTERED, during the continuance Of the war,
: as legitimate means of cutting off the enemy's
supplies"
The government organ then goes on to suggest
that hereafter arrangements may be made between
Mexico and the United States, by which the two
nations could agree that reciprocal stipulations
should be made for the free and unrestricted enjoy
menl Of religious liberty within the territories of
both countries"
We submit the above, for the present. without
comment.
