Condemned by the Pope.

PHILADELPHIA, Oct 1.-THE pope
has written a letter to the Catholic
hierarchy OF America, condemning the
assemblage of congresses of religion.
The letter has been delivered to Arch
bishop Ryan, of this city, and to all
other archbishops. 1t was the main
subject considered ut the recent meet
ing OF the archbishops ut Washing
ton, but the efforts at secrecy were
successful in keeping the letter from
publicity. What steps the archbishop
took cannot be learned, but with the
views Of the pope thus clearly ex-
pressed, II Is probable that the Ameri-
can church will net against congresses
of religion in the same way that an in
terdiction was placed on Catholic par.
ticipation in the Knights OF Pythias,
Odd Fellows and other secret societies.
