Correspandanca Nore York Erening Poetos LONDON, Mareh 1.—What has taken place at Rome behind the holy doors of the congregation of the Rites? A neise of dispute has reached e ears of the profane; there has been uproar and twinult, but the details, the facts,and move- mentw have been carefully concealed, ‘The eleri- eal world was visibly exclted; mysterfous newa was whispered about, which seemed to he of preat fmport even by the slde of the resignation of Marshal MocMabon, which resignation was compared by the Jesuitic nest to the shame of Bedan. . It was rumored—in matters of the vestry we have always to deal with rumors, never with clear, simplo, concordant narcatives—it was ru- mored that, belng called upon to sanction an afficial consecration of Our Lady of La Salette (whosa features nre entfrely different from those of the other Holy Virgina), the Pope had hin- sell questioned the insana Melanle, on whoso testimony. rests this ignable story, and that, in- dlnant at the effronfery, the jguorance, and the _conrscoess of this creature, he had wanted to toke the opportunity, onca for all, to REMUDIATE THE WONSHIP OF LA SBALETTH, which bo has submitted to rather than accepted, and has never formally recognized. Pius IX., who was sincerely devoted to Our- Lady of J.ourdes, had never swallowed Our Lady of Ln Balette, whose apparition he ealled * stuff and nonsense.” [t secins that the new Pope would have lked to make o slight display of lberality, that nothiug wounld please him better than to ¢ weed the church.” “There ars honest folks who beljeve thiswere not too diflicult a task, and wero really worth the while.

How could religious liberallsm, so often struck down by bulls, tise again on a sudden and throttie the Byllabus? Threa days later THE NEWS WAS CONTRADICTED on ali sldes in the name of Monscignear, who traflics fn the water of Lo Saletta at the rato of five francs ner litro—the price of the better brands of coznac.
