The Papal Infallibility Dogma.
IeleQHdnhsd ErclnsireIu ko TAs Enen;.aa ,Qkae


LONDON, March IL, $50 p. m.-The evening
edition OF the Times has the following from the
Roman front:-On Monday a schema on infal-
hbility was distributed to the members of the
Council. 1t asserts that the Church possesses
supreme and complete primacy, and that prin-
cipality over the universal church IL received
with plenitude of power from the Lord himself.
by st. Peter, Of whom the Pontiff is the success
sor. All questions Of faith must be determined
under that power, else the words Of the
Lord to Peter would be disregarded. The
Catholic doctrine has always been fully
maintained, consequently We inculcate with
the dogma of faith that thanks to the divine
assistance, the Roman pontif, Of whom it was
said in the person of Peter by Christ, /" have
prayed for all,' cannot err when acting as the
supreme teacher of all Christians. The schem
defines what the Church must hold i'm faith nd
morals, and that the prerogative Of papal infall-
hility extends over the same matters to which the
infallibility Of the Church is applicable. II any
should dare, which God forbid, to controyert
the present definition, let him know that he de-
parts from the true faith.
