The Reply of the Vatican TO the spanisl,
Note.
The note Of the Vatican in reply to that
of Spain treats the Spanish question from
the standpoint OF religion and the prin-
ciples of the Concordat which, it says, must
not be departed from. The Vatican does
not desire to embarraas the new Spanish
government. 1t particularly wishes to as
sist it, but only by such means
as would be truly efficacious and which
would not permit the rupture OF that
sacred tie which has always been the glory
of Spain. Religious unity, which it is now
sought to Danish, can not impede the devel-
opment of civilization, but is, on the con.
trary. it's true beacon. 1t is the duty of the
Papacy to combat not civilization, which
is brought forward merely as pretext,
but the corruption invading the hearts
of nations. In persisting upon the ground
asserted, the Papacy believes it renders
great service not only to the Spanish gov
ernment but to all Spain. The conduct of
the Papal nuncio and of the Vatican must
be regarded from this point of view But if
Spain. moved BY supreme necessity. wishes
to draw up an understanding on the same
principles under another form the
Papacy is open to negotiation. with
the object of introducing acceptable
notifications into the concordat. After
each one has declared it's views, it is to
be seen how far the Vatican can accept the
draft of the new constitution. In concu-
sion. the Vatican accepts the declaration of
the Spanish government that it is desirous
of coming to an understanding, and states
that instructions TO negotiate have been
given the nuncio at Madrid.
