TIE Catholics of Cleveland, had a
great procession and celebration at
Cleveland, on the 9Th. The process
sion was about three quarters of a
mile long, and numbered from 1000
the 1900 people. At the Cathedral
addresses were delivered by Mr. Nc
Donnell, of Toledo, and others. All
breathed anathemas against King
Victor Emanuel. The following re-
solutions were adopted:
WHEREAS, His Majesty Victor
Emanuel, King of Italy, taking ad-
vantage of the desired and disturbed
condition of Europe, has during the
past year taken forcible possession
of the city of Rome, and the cities of
the church, he usurped the functions
of the reigning Pontif, Plus the TX
and
WHEREAS, the Catholic Church,
by its ministers, the Pope of Rome,
has been in legal, and rightfuP and
undistprbed possession Of the terri
tory and prosperous states of the
Church for upward of eleven hun
dred years, therefore be it.
ResOIUed, by the Catholics of the
city of Cleveland, that we denounce
the action of Victor Emanuel, and
that the Italian Government in its
nsurpation has committed fragrant
violation Of the principles of justice,
and Of international law, and an un-
warrantable interference with the
Catholic world.
ResoIUed, that in union with the
Catholics of the Ecclesiastical pro-
vince Of Cincinnati and the world,
we enter our solemn protest against
the unjust and sacrilegious usurpa-
ton and spoliation Of the city of
Rome the patrimony of 81. Peter,
temporal possession of our Holy Be
loved Plus TX, by the wicked Pied
mortese Government.
ResolUed, that we call upon the
Congress of the United States, and
the governments of Europe to inter-
fere against this OUTRAGEOUS viola
ton Of the rights Of their Catholic
citizens and subjects, and, if posi-
BILE, to restore to them and their Pom
tiff, the territories of which he and
they have been unjustly deprived
