TO THE RESCUE OF SAINT PETER.

The paGtisans OF the temporal power of the Pope Of
Rome are sadly disturbed at the curailment which the
Papal possessions which were not altogether lawfully
acquired are to undergo. The Legations, what is
called generally the Romagna already lost, and
most probably beyond recovery, are among the &C.
questions made by the temporal Roman power. Bad
faith only or eqaivocaon include these in the cele
brated donation to St. Peter The fact is that when in
the fifteenth century tie Romsh See began to extend
its power by Selling the lands and cities in the Marches
aud in Romagna, the Cardinals held that such acquis
tons did not belong the Holy See but to their Col
lege. In the year 1881, at the election of Pope
Eugenus w. the Cardinals imposed upon ths elected
a pactum, accepted by him. and by which lactua, it
was settled that the Papal Sate-in contradstnctiea
to the patrimony Of ST. Peter-shoud herceforh be
held by the Pope Lord Paramount for the good and
the advantage Of the College of Cardinals. This pac
tim, swoIn to by every new Pope constitutes the
family law or rcgulation-it cannot be called publi,
lawof the Papal Administration, and the Cardinals,
who the Leates possessors and oppreasors oi
these lands.
Therefore, not St. Peter, but the College of Carii-
mails, will be the 0ser by the emancipation OF Ro-
magna etc. Ii in the power Of the faithful 10 COM
