Morning Star and Catholic Messenger.
FROM ROME.

agement of Mgr. Sella is such as to terrify
even the adherents of the Revolution.
Taxes on the capital and compound taxes
on the interest of all funded and landed
property; taxes on furniture, provisions,
carriages, shares and cattle, are the price
in material and economical point of view,
which the Romans will have to pay for
liberty. 81

proved that a meeting of the Sect had been
held at the Casa Ajani Zone Of the most
noted haunts of the advanced party), and
that arms and cartridges had been served
ont by the Government to the mob of the
Borgo, in order to stimulate an attack on
the Vatican, Of which the National Guard,
In plain clothes, were to take the leader
ship: The object of this Infamous plot was
to give the Government an opportunity Of
repression, so as to be able to say to Europe
that 1T was strong enough to prevent any
danger to the Pope. SFhe novena of ST.
Joseph had been celebrated in all the prin-
cipal churches with great devotion, and
the general Communion on the feast itself
was crowded. The Golden Rose was not

slightly indisposed with cold in the head
the day before, celebrated an early Mass in
his private chapel, but received number
OF devsut persons later in the day who
came to congratulate his Holiness on the
decree raising the Foster Father of Our
Lord to the protectorship of the Church.
England and Rome.-One word from
England would have stopped the march of
the Italian troops or Rome, and that word
W lich her Majesty's Catholic subjects had
every right to expect, was not SAID. The
English consulate, too, received the first
ovation of the mob, and the vice-consul
has even been decorated by Victor Em-,
manuel. OF Mr.. Jervoise's kindness and
personal freedom from political animus all
who had recourse to his Intervention dur
ing and since the events have reason to
speak most highly, and the comparison be-
tween his dispatches, written from personal
observation, and those of Sir Augustus
faget, whose information was evidently
derived from perusal of the Official Ga
Sette, is very remarkable.
France and Observation-Disclosures parishes
have undertaken daily communion for the
Pope's Intentions; one in my own knowledge
near Lyons has persevered in this pious
act since 1860, and at the commencement
of the war placed itself under the Pope's
Benediction, which it solemnly demanded.
AT the fall of Rome it undertook fast of
forty days in expiration, and to obtain the
safety OF it's young men, who were all in
fallen in battle, although they were in the
terrible siege of the heroic fortress from
first to last, and although the Mobiles of
the neighboring parishes were decimated.
The parishioners, headed by tue Cure, and
by their pious chatelaine, whose name
sion to Mass last Sunday, to return thanks
to God for this signal and, as they are
persuaded, miraculous favor. The Young
men have all pledged themselves to join
the first standard raised for Plus TX.
The Popes Annirersary.-I hear on reli-
able authority that at least $4,000 persons
have announced their intention of coming
in pilgrimage to Rome for the 10th of June,
should our Holy Father be, in Gods mercy,
spared SO long to the Church, of which, ,
humanity speaking, there is every hope.
Austria and Bararia.-The Catholic ten
denotes of the Apostolic Empire are be-
coming more evident daily, and the I'm
perial Court in all its branches is resuming
its natural leadership of the Catholic |
movement. 1t is patent, even to NJ de !
Beust, that the population of all classes
are awakening to the danger of delay and
to the duty of the Empire, and the return
of the deputation has already given new
Italian press teens with alarming runners,
and the approaching demonstration for the |
Pope's jubilee evidently fill the Sect with
uneasiness, as an expression of Catholic
opinion which must bear fruit.
The Liberia states that the Gesu will be |
one of the converts next appropriated. |
The tutors of St. Vincent of Paul attached
to the Hospital of st. Spirito were received
in farewell audience by the Pope, having
been expelled by the new director.
1t is perfectly false that the Emperor
Napoleon has written n respectful letter to

such a step would only be an insult to the
Holy Father.
The Quirinal Court.-Their Royal High
nesses are becoming very uneasy, and a
pretext for their departure will be found
in the opening of the Maritime exhibition
of Naples. Their position between reac-
ton and the Republic is absolutely ipsup-
portable. The next telegram from France
may decide the fate of Rome, and of the
House of Savoy in Spain and Italy for it
is perfectly certain that nothing can save
it from it's final fall, when the Republican
elements have once declared themselves in
