perneIl o.. the Pope.s ClrenInr.

The GLbs- Democrats cable lslter from Lon
don has the following: Mr.. PJrneli has At
last IN ade an official utterance, in the form
Of IN open letter 10 a Paris journalist, coz
ceruiug the POpe's circular. He snnounees
that be is plea,ed with it, because OF the ef.
feet it will certainly have upon the fcruHts
of the real Irish party. The bielcb the
Papsl circular has already caused smong
the papers which affected to represent
the Irish cause, Mr.. Parnell Gays,
he regards with delight, because
il will place the Catholic religion just where
il belongs in the politics of Ireland. S5ms
of The truest republicans in Ireland have
felt Themselves compelled 10 conceal their
gym natby with the Irish party and to held
aloaf from ali participation in lis movements,
bee u.e of u general impression that Ireland,
bsiug a stronghold Of the Cathoi; faith,
n, geuersl Iri.h political movement could
ever occur except Il were dominated 10 the
Church. Now that the Pope has officially de-
claredsAthat The Church did not recognize
the Irisn party, but forbade its pTiess 10
make themselves conspicuous IN its actions,
The Irish people could re alizs how completely
politics was divorced from religions denomi-
nstious, and Catholic ami Protestant repub-
| licans could work together in complete har-
mony. Mr.. Psrneli comedies that the Pope's
| action may have beeu as'ute from Il I'm an
point Of view, but claims that Leo XIII
| oyerreaehed himself If he Intended to give
to Eugland the influence of the Cilho-
| lie Caurcn IN Ireland, because the
principal effect of his recent cir
culsr would be among Irish Catholics a con.
viction that in politics they were absolutely
| independent of the Church, and among Pro.
t,stants a conviction that they can act with
the republicans without snbjeciing them
selves to the domination OF Rome. Mr.. Par
uell's letter concludes with the statement that
while the msi1riiy OF the Irish people may
be submissive in matters Of faith 10 the Pope,
in matters of politics and nationality they
respect themselves.
