Meeting of Protestants.

Darmstadt, Oct. 4.-The meeting
of Professionals representing various
portions of the German empire is
now being held in this city for the
purpose ofdiscussing the condition Of
the protestant religion in Germany.
A resolution has been adopted set
ting forth that it is the interest of
Germany to oppose the doctrine of
Papal infallibility, that dogma so
inimical to the sovereignty of state
and the liberties Of the people,
and destructive to that freedom of
conscience which is the base of pure
religion; that the establishment of
the order of Jesus must beprohibited.
