MADE an Interpretation (of which he had previously
given notice) IN reference to the affairs Of Rome
lie expressed his belief that the government of the
Pope was incompatible with the liberty and the
Independence of the country and the civil rights
OF any civilized nation. He asked the ministry
whether any negotiations were being carried or
for the purpose of terminating the foreign inter
venton at Rome, or what other measures the gov
ernmant had in view for the solution of the cues
ton.
Count Cavour repled-Ws have right to have
Rome as the capital of Italy, The city Of Turin is
ready to sacrifice her position But we must go to
Rome with the consent of France, when all sincere
Catholics Will be convinced that the Church, far
from suffering, will gain by it. The union of the
temporal and spiritual power has always and every
where been source of evil. When we enter
Rome we shall proclaim ample liberty to the
Church, and this liberty shall be guaranteed by a
special statute. If the Court of Rome persists in
the union of the two powers of the Papacy, its
policy will be responsible for the schism which
might result therefrom.
