Tho cx-monk Achilli announces through a.
London paper his intention speedily 10 leave
England for America and we may fairly pre-
slime that he is TOW on the way. In The pros
poet Of his arrival, we Proiier these sugges-
tons.
Achillf was Roman Priest, became an Italian
Patriot, then on anti. Romanist, and, having fled
TO England, came out in that country as an anti
Papal lecturer and preacher. While acting in
this capacity, he was publicly asSailed by Dr.
Newman, Ga distinguished convert from the AM
glican to the Romish Church, as seduoer and
lbertinc, thoroughly corrupt and licentious, and
every way unworthy to be regarded as tench-
or Of religion. For this attack, Newman was
criminally proceeded against by Achilli, and a
verdict Of Guilty was obtained on the charge,
but in the face Of such damaging array OF tes-
timony, running through almost the entire adult
life of the ex-monk, that nobody who read the
trial would have preferred TO be the uindicdted
Aclmlli rather than the conuicfed Newman. The
London Times, not apt 10 take the Catholic side
of any controversy, was most pointed in its con-
domination Of the verdict and Of the ruling and
charge Of Lord Campbell, under which it was
rendered. Achlli's religious congregation soon
after melted away, and his migration from Great
Britain is doubtless among the consequences oil
his encounter with DR.. Newman.
Well: he is quite right in quitting Eng gland
and none will dispute his right to turn his face
toward our hospitable shores. He has farther
right TO appear among us as teacher Of lel
gion or censor OF ether mons religion; but
should he be so unwise as to assume that char
acter, we trust he will be most severely lie
alone. His right to speak is undoubted, but j
does not impose on any one an obligation 10 lis
ten. We presume Roman Catholics do not wan
to hear him, and we protest against any stel
being taken here that will saddle professionalism
with his tainted reputation. We do not say hi
innocence is impossible, though we cannot re
concile it with the testimony adduced on New
mans trial. but it is manifest that, until hi
character shall be cleared up, his advocacy o
any form of Religion can do it no good, bu
much evil. Let him respect that pnblc sens
of decency which commends him to silence an
obscurity.
