THE POPE'S ALLOCUTION.

sistory OF the 18th of July. The passage relative
TO Sardinia is follows: "In various parts of the
regions OF Italy unjustly subjected to the Subapine
government, public schools have been instituted in

ton OF the universe, with shameful and abominabe
engravings with which these impacable enemies of
religion and sku artisans of wickedness and fraud
endeavor to deride the sacred mysteries of the
Cnurch, and persecute the sacred mysteries of the
vicar OF Christ on earth in order to destroy his e
gitimate empire and the ruin of both ecclesi
astical and civil society. And these enemies of
light and truth do not hesitate to Law violent and
sacregious hands on the sacred ministers and pat
rimony OF the Church. Thus, when the Sub-alpin
Government, the l4th of April last, usurped the
common OF the Parmese and Placentan Duchy it
1nlqultously drove away the monks of the Order of
ST. benedict, who lived in the Convent of St. John
the Evangelist, at Parma. Then, by decree of the
10th OF last May, it ordered the seminary of the
clergy at Piacenza to be closed, in order to take
vengeance on the Bishop, who very properly alb
stained from performing the sacred ceremonies or
dered by the civil power. And the same most vigi.
liant bishop was arrested, taken to Turin, and con-
demned to Imprisonment and fine, to which pun
lshment also the vicar general and some canons
were subjected.
"For the same reason, both in our provinces of
Emilia, usurped by the same government, and in
other places subjected to the unjust Sub-alpine
domination, several venerable bishops and ecclesi-
astcai personages and members of religious frater
mites We're sorely prosecuted and subjected to
severe lnquisitions, and not few exiled or i'm
prisoned. For this reason the Provicar of Bologna
was dragged from the bedside of his diving bishop
and sent to prison. And when that illustrious
archoshop OF bologna died, the property of the
see was Immediately subjected to the adminisra-
ton OF government. For the same reason, the
venerable brother the pious Bishop of Faenza was
first guarded by soldiers in his own house. because

fine. For the same reason, the Archbishop of Pisa
was arrested and sent to Turin the Bishop of Imoa
was placed under restraint in his own house. and
the Archbishop of Ferrara molested in various
ways."
On the subject of Sicily the Pope said-"Y ou
know the serious evils which religion and its minis
ters suffered lately in Sicily through the acts of
abandoned men, who have disturbed the authority
OF the rightful prince. Among other things, two
rehglous orders that had deserved well of the
Christian religion were Dissolved and their members
exlled. And what is most to be lamented venera-
Bile brethren, is that there many of the clergy
Who foTgettul OF the Lord and their duty prests,
did not blush to favor the enemies of the church and
OF justice, to the immense scandal and wrath of the
righteous"
His Holiness then adverts to the constancy and
ath OF the bishops under these trials, and exhorts
them to pray for the cessation of all these evils.

Beyrout, the Rev. DR.. Thompson and other
American Missionaries in that city, and those who
are associated with them in this good work, and
who have recently made an earnest appeal to
American Christians, the almoners. No men in
Syria, can do this work better. There
are nearly twenty of these excellent men,
and they are familiar, by a residence of several
years, with the people, and will undoubtedly dis
tribute the aid which may be sent with more dis
crlmlnatlon and economy than any other men
could do. Whether clothing and food shall be
sent, as well as money, will be decided by the COM
mlttee when they have the requisite information.
The appeal of the Committee concludes as fol-
lows:
We make this appeal in the confidence that
Christian and benevolent people who did not turn
deaf ear to the cry of distress which came to them
from Greece, from the Cape de Verde Islands, and
from Ireland, will not be wanting in this day of
need for the poor and the wretched in the land
where Christianity began its heaven. born mission,
and which was trodden by the feet of the blessed
Saviour of men, and his immediate Apostles.
AS the Committee will not be able to make per-
sonal applications, they have to request earnestly
but respectfully, all whose hearts incline them to
give any sum, whether small or great, to remit it
by mail or otherwise, as soon they can, to the
Treasurer. full statement will be published,
from time to time, in the papers, of all donations.
We would also respectfully request the pastors of
the churches in this city, and throughout our
country, wherever it is practicable, to bring this
subject before their respective congregations at as
early day as possible, and take collection in be
