by the royalist members of the Chamber

clares, "while respecting the decision of the
pope in spiritual matters, claim
for Frenchmen the right of
preserving their political preferences. The
form of government is a question that
should be decided by Frenchmen alone.
The papacy has recognized all previous
forms of government in France, but it has
never called upon the adherents of pre-

renounoe their hopes" The manifesto was
not agreed to unanimously, several depu-
ties considering it inoppertune and impol-
itic. Only forty of the sixty royalist dep

trucks will fail specially heavy upon him.
