The Government and tho Bishops.-The

Cologne, the Prince Bishop of Breslau, the
Bishops Of Limburg, Fulda, Pader6orn'
Treves, Ermeland, Munster and Hides

Archbishopric of Freiburg. and the vicar
addressed to the Geneva Government In
reference to the restrictions recently I'M
posed by State laws on Catholic education.

mixed marriages, allow their children to
become Catholics. The fathers are also to
be excluded from the Protestant compu.
