Roman Catholic View of the War.

The New ork metropolitan Record of last
week contains an article on the Italian War
presenting the Roman Catholic view Of the
contest. The Record is the recognized organ of
Archbishop Hughes, and the article, ifnot from
his pen, is no douht published with his sane
ton. After reviewing the anttccdents OF Ma
poleon, Victor Emmanuel and Garibaidi the
article concludes rs follows:
Is the allied league sincerel Read the ante
ccdents of the three men, and say if it can be
so. Victor Emmanuel wanted Italian uni
ty'' in 1919, and Napoleon aided in opposing it,
Garibaldi wanted extreme revolution and the
place of Il Roman Tribune in 1873, and hNapo-
leon drove him from his country Napoleon
was given the position Of Republican
President in ISIS, and he himself threw it away
for absolute rule, and now seeks to wipe the
blood from OF his hands during II general con-
vulsion i'll Europe, on the great coats of Carl
baldis men, or on The shakos of the Sardinian
troops, and then be ready for the repeal of the
treaty of Vienna, the Nussalage OF the Pope,
and extended conquest on the Rhine.
Can he effect his purposees We regret to
have it To say that even now he has succeeded
in making 81 virtual prisoner of the Holy ia
thef, but can assert that he viii never have
him for 4 subj.ct. Since the commencement
OF tho war, the Pope explicitly proclaimed his
neutrality by diplomatic circular. The King
OF Sardinia would not accept this, and inme-
diately after hi. rejection oft, although seem
ingly approved by Napoleon, General Goyon
commander OF the French troops in Rome
turned the monks OF the Convent OF Montorio
ont, and placed artillery on the building, thus
entirely commanding the city, and atfordinx
the most certain evidence that the attempts 10
disturb the tenure OF church property all over
Europc-lnitiatcd 10y Victor Emmanuel and
Cavour in S53-'54, when they legislated nuns
and priests, and monks from their retreats
finds sanction and encouragement from Napo-
leon Ill, who imagines perhaps that he is
thus more faithfully rehearsing his uncles old
programme i'll some of its divisions.
II the bad success OF the efforts Of the En-
peror Napoleon to drag Austria into the Rus
sial war were to be taken augury of his
triumph III the present contest, we would pro-
phecy his signal failure. His grand aim and
policy thea was to involve her, and thus by
engaging her troops in Russia either for or
against the Car, disorganiZe her powerful
army, plunge her in debt, break up the unity
OF the German Confederation, and thus-for of
course he would if sincere, still endeavor to
''liberate' Italy-rcndrr the present work of
the allies very easy, for Garibaldi and Victor
Emmanuel would raise the same cry at the
moment Europe does not forget the steady
diplomacy OF Austria at that period, nor cnn
Germany forget how she maintained that
grand Gordon of Free States intact as 4 bar
ricr against foreign invasion. These reminis-
ccncee shape in great measure the policy of
Napoleon and direct him in his endeayor TO
dissolve, if he can, the German Confederat lion,
wipe out the treaty of Vienna, reward the
King of Sardinia with sifr OF more territory
and additional church property.
Having done all this and heard perhaps Of the
death of Garibald and hundreds Of his follow
ers, he may feel more secure in Paris
The treaty Of Paris was signed by England,
Austria, Prussia, Russia and France in Paris
on the goth of November, 1918, and the same
day was completed the treaty of alliance te-
tween the four first-named Powers the second
article Of which renews tho engagements for
the maintenance Of the tranquility and peace
of Europe, and particularly those which, COM
mencins With the treaty Of April u, 1914, hacs
forer:r s1e!adsd Napo!son and Ais faAniis from
tie possessions Of ths supreme poser ~ France !;
ard tAs four Poecsrs engage TO support this srcis-
sten, II accessory, ,cifA all thsir forces. This is
tho thorn which rauklcs 80 keenly in the side
OF Napoleon at present. Our readers know
his aims we have sketched the character and
objects of his Allies, and entertain the opinion
that, considering the attitude taken by Prus-
sia and all Germany, the power, high spirit
and Catholic feeling OF Austria, the firmness OF
the Holy Father, and the hatred which pre-
walls III all civilized nations of the selfish ag-
grandizement OF despots, untrue to all former
pledges, both himself Garibaidi, Victor En-
manuel and Cavour will be disappointed in
their hopes and policy.
