at this vote, which they call fresh instance o
Protestant intolerance. A law, they say, has td1s
been passed by the Protestants OF the canton o. .,
Grisons which forbids the Catholic bishop from al!
official communication with his clergy, without de-
mauding in the first place the special permission
of the Government, which IS Itself princlP aliy
Protestant. The papers are wrong IN this. Iae
law in question has special reference to the
schools established by the Government, and does
not preventive ordinary communications between
bishops and their clergy.

At Rome the American Protestant Chapel in
the Via del Pontehcl IS nov open to the pubic,
and divine service is performed, according to the
Presby terian mode OF worship, by Rev. Mr. Hast
ings, who was purpOsely sent out to Rome last
year by the Dissenters' Union. There is no doubt
that the merit OF having obtained permission tor
this establishment is entirely owing to the Amerl-
can CHARGED ABaireS, Mr.. Cass, who, during the
republican regime made such representations to
the Tnumvirate as prevented the Propaganda
Eide College from being occupied as barracks,
and the pupils from being turned into the streets
by Garbaldls soldiers. The gratitude OF the
Government has been shown by allowing chapel

their acknowledgements TO Mr. Cass by presenting
him with an elegantly bound book, containing the
Lords Prayer written III fifty or sixty different
languages, by the lads themselves.
