FOREIGN AFFAIRS.
A Vigorous Protest from the Pope
Against the Action of the
French GOverDment-Mr. Heaiey Inter
vEewed-Mexican Revolution.

PARIS, December 15.-The Pope has pro-
tested to the French government against
the action of M. Goblet, Minister of Pub
lie instruction, for stopping the stipend
of thirty-nine priests for alleged interven-
ton in recent elections for members OF
the Chamber of Deputies. The Pope
claims that the suspension of religious
stipends is an infringement on the pro-
visions of the ConeoI dat. Sharp letters
have been exchanged between NJ. Goblet
and the Bishop of Painters, the former
strongly condemning the intervention OF
the bishop and his clergy in the elections,
and stopping the stipends of thirty-nine
priests in consequence Of such inteTven-
tioD. The bishop vindieates the right of
priests to talk politics with their neigh
bors, urging that they cannot remain
passive spectators of systematic attacks on
the church. The bishop has also addressed
a pastoral to the parishes thus deprived OF
priests, in which he explains what had
happened, denied that priests had mis-
conducted themselves, and asked for
prayer that he may be soon restored to
the church.
