 WASHINGTON, Dec. l3.-The pastoral letter of the Archbishops and Bishops of the United States composing the Third PlerEry Council of Baltimore to the clergy aud laity of ihe.r charge is made public through the Catholic Mir Tor. l; Is a lengthy document, but the following abst-act gives the main points on leading matters winch engaged tue attention of the Council: Reference Is
 made to the great increase of Catholic institutions III the past eighteen years, especially iu the west. The assembling by Plus TX of the general Council of the Vatican Is alluded to as one of the most important events of our age, and detailed accounts of it's work are given. The Catholics of PrussIa are commended for theIr good work ID ayailIng them selves of every legal means to check the advances ot despotIsm and save their own freedom and that of their country. The letter then discusses the laws of the church and this country iu the following terms: I've think We can claim to be acquainted both with the laws, institutions and spirit of our country, and We emphatically declare there IS no antagonism with them. A Catholic finds himself at home in the United States, for the influence of his church has constantly been exercised in behalf of individual rights and popular liberties, and the right minded Ameri- can now here finds himself nowhere more at home than m the Catholic Church, for nowhere else can he breathe that atmosphere of dIvIpe truth which alone can make us free. We repudiate with equal earnestness the assertion that We need to lay aside any of our de- vOtedness to our church to be true and the insInuatIon that We need to lay aside any of our love for our couutry's principles and institutions tO be faithful Catholics. We ar gue that the Catholic Church is not hostile tO our great republic, be- cause she teaches that there Is no power but from God; because, there fore, back of the events which led to the formation of the Republic she sees the providence of God leading to that issue, and back Of our country's laws the au- thority of God as their sanction. This Is evidently so illogical and contradictory an accusation, that We are astOnished to have 1t advanced by persons of ordinary We beheve our cOuntry's heroes were instruments of God and the m establishing this home of freedom. To both the Almighty and to his instruments m the work we look with grateful reverence, and to maintain tue inheritance of freedom winch they have left us, should 1t ever, which God forbid, be imperilled, our Catholic ciii- gems will bc found to stand forward as one man. ready to pledge anew their | lives, their fortunes, and their sacred | honor. No less illogical would be the | notion that there IS aught iu the free | spirit of republican institutions incom- | patible with perfect dOcility to the Church of Christ"
