The Catholic Bishops a. Fuid..

The North German bishops, who have 80
long been talking of their determination to
consider for themselves the new dogma of
lnfallibility, have at last commenced upon Its
discussion. According to our special despatch
from Berlin last night, they had assembled In
fun force at Fulda and inaugurated q series
of secret conferences. Probably the letter Of
the Pope addressed to the anti-clerical party
Of Prussia . few days since has given an
impetus to their actions In this matter, and
caused them to hurry forward the work they
have undertaken In discussing tho
subject of the new powers con-
ferred upon His Holiness by the great
council of bishops at Rome. So anxious are
tho bishops to proceed with the subject
that they have commenced by emitting the
solemnization Of the customary morning cathe-
dral service, and given other uumistakable
evidences Of determination to transact their
business after the fashion Of those who cannot
soar 30 high and have to be content to remain
always on this mundane sphere. The "secret
conferences" seem to be scarcely in accord
ance with the general principles Of the Ger
man people at the present time, although they
may suit the more astute mind Of Prince Bis
marck, In whose hands the leading strings
will be placed, and the ultimate object attained
will be in accordance with his manipulations.
The Pope has already warned the Premier in
his letter, and said be would have desired
that moro justice had been done toward the
German Catholics, and hoped that a pilot Of
the ship Of State so adroit as he appeared to
DO would not provoke discord In the bosom
Of the now empire, for interior peace is more
necessary than peace outside for the consoli-
dalton Of Germany" No details have yet been
forwarded as to what the Conference expects
to achieve; but from the tenor of this tele-
gram II seems probable that q good deal will
bs attempted, whether successfully or not re-
mains to he seen.
