Jesuit lives and Breaches that OF fraud and false

But what Is to be said Of Louis Napoleon, that
incarnation of hypocrisys lie, indeed, Is an apt
scholar of Jcsucal lore, perfect adept al the arts
of political jugglery At home, his policy has been
TO undermine those Institutions which he
solemnly swOre to observe and MAINTAIN. Abroad,
he has directed the of his country to sub
vert government with which France, at least,
had no right to interfere. His professions and his
Practices have, throughout his presidential career,
been utterly opposed. lie does those things which
which should be done. As the deadly Upas tree
corrupts the physical atmosphere, 30 this degener-
ate, priestridden Napoleon taints the moral and
political world
We believe that the people of France repudiate
the insensate foreign policy Of their President and
his ministry. OF this Roman expedition they are,
as they ought to be, ashamed. The journals most
devoted 10 the powers that be" only attempt TO
apologize for this suicidal undertaking., adopted in
fragrant violation Of the constitution. The constu-
lon has, indeed gone TO that bourne from which no
euch traveller is ever known to return. While the

tlonal government is a legal fiction For the loss

French have for some time been in full military
possession Of Rome. They have some 10000
