" Papal aggression =" cutlery in England, and
the famous Durham letter yet Catholicity
has now progressed so far i'll that country
that within the past month Archbishop Man
ming has opened Catholic chapel in the
royal borough of Windsor. This is the first
time since the Reformation that the Catho-
lie rites have been celebrated there. With
some sense of appropriateness, the Arch
bishop dedicated the church to st. Edward,
the Confessor.
Our Archbishop continues to work with
unceasing activity. On Sunday His Grace
preached for the London Hospital on Mon

West Drayton, and preached /; on Tuesday,
he read an elaborate paper at the AcaZ
demia ; on Wednesday he went to the far
ing of a church and he is to preach to-
morrow in London.-London Weekly Regis

TIE Pores CLEMENCY.-The Roman cor
respondent of the Pal Mall Gazette says: :
Rome is in such excitement about the
dcmned insurgents, Monti and Tognetti,
that before the affair passes ont of mind 1t
may be desirable to put on record what has
really occurred. The decree confirming the
sentence of death was signed by all the
members of the Tribunal of Appeal, and
was presented to the Pope by Monsignor
Carlctti, President of the Consulta. The
Holy Father instantly summoned an advo-
cate, in whom he places great condolences
but whose name has never transpircd, and,
without revealing the decision of the tribu-
nal, directed him to so through the evil
-dence and candidly state whether this
brought the charge home to the prisoners.
The Pope believed that he would thus be
in Il position to justify the capital sentence
to those who so strenuously counsellcd its
communication. Contrary to his expectation,
however, the advocate reported against the
verdict, declaring the evidence was INSULT
cient to convict on the principal charge
This opinion determined the Pope to take
further advice, and he convoked an extra
ordinary Council of the Ministers, which
met in his private apartments on October
18th. The Holy Father then stated his
grounds for doubt, and asked the judgment
of each Minister in succession, when all
agreed as to the expediency of renting the
capital punishment. Finally the Pope
yielded, and the sentence is committed to
hard labor for life.
