TEMPORAL CONVENIENT OF TIE POPE
The editor OF the Tablet, Catholic journal,
Craving q distinction between the civil and
spiritual jurisdiction Of the Pope, says:
! We have, as Catholics, no more responsible.
ity for the civil government Of the city and ter.
fitory Of Rome, Of which the Pope Is temporal
sovereign, than we have for the civil govern.
ment Of Great Britain. Ii is no article of the
Catholic iaith that the Pope is impeccable, or
that he and the College Of Cardinals are infal.
hble in matters Of civil administration. We
are, not being the Pope's temporal SUBJECTS, as
free TO approve or disapprove of the const,tu-
ton and government Of his States as we e Of
the government Of any other foreign State.
We take our religion. not our politics, from
Rome. We only suppose that the Pope and
Gard nails Gre better judges than we Of what is
best or what is practicable for the Romans un-
der the head Of government, and simply add
shat, as lar as we can learn, the Papal govern.
hent has been most grossly belied, ana that up

the French, consequent ON the French reyolu.
