EVENING STAR LOCAL INTELLIGENCE. Rev. Mr. Brooxe’s Lecture on tax Tex- PORAL Power or THE Pops, at GrorceTown, IN REPLY To Faruse Macuine.—Forrest Hall, Georgetown, was crowded last night to listen to the lecture of Rev. Mr. Brooke, of the M E Church, in reply to Rev Bernard Maguire, on the “ Temporal Power of the Pope.”” Father Maguire was one of the audience. The lec turer commenced by saying he had not yolun- teered, neither had he been pressed into ser- viee, but on invitatien had freely acce; ted, in order that he might do some service to the truth, his God, and his country [Applause } He passed in review the poin's presented by Father re, commencing with the state ment that the do ‘trine had never beea taught in the Romish Church “that the Pope had temporal power, or that the tenates of the Cbureh ever had given it to him;”’ and he cited passages from their most eminent au- tho s to prove direetly the contrary. ae to bo election <a nae Popes by e people agreed w ‘ather Maguire ; bat as to Gregory the Great, whom he so much eulogised, Mr. Brooke thought him far from spotless, and instead of our owing to him the salvation of civilization, we owe to him the destruction of many works of art.

At Forrest Hall, Jast night, there was a crowded audience to hear the lecture of Rev Mr. Brooke, in reply to Rev. Mr. Maguire, Without attempting a synopsis of the lecture, we would remark that the contestanis seem to be very well matched, and of each it may be said “ Plato, thou reasonest well.”” We sup- all parties are well satisfied with the Dmondtra tions made; they occupy about the same position and opinion in relation to the subject undeg disc mo that they did before the controversy commenced. One good. how- ever, is sure to result from it, if no other: the two lectares will yield some $350. which will be expended for the benefit of the needy and distressed. A large number of the clergy of Washington and our city was upon the stand, and others in the a dience, among them Fa- ther Maguire The very best order was ob- served, and the lecture was listed to through- out with marked attention by tho entire au- ditory.
