4 NEW YORK HERALD, SUNDAY, OCTOBER 3, 1869.—TRIPLE SHEET. EUROPE. The Pope’s Reply to Doctor Cumming. Archbishop McCloskey’s Appear- ance in Rome. The German mail steamship Main. Captain Oteren- dorf, from Bremen the 18th and Southampton the 2ist of September, arrived at this port yesterday afternoon, bringing our special correspondence and mail report in detail of our cable despatches from Europe, dated to her day of sailing trom England. Mr. Scudamore and & staff of oficers were in Bir- mingham, making arrangements for the working of the English telegraphs under the government from the Ist of January next. The instruments of the various companies will be collected at the principal money order office, and the present oMce in the Exchange will be retained as a receiving office. Various branches will be established in the towns and most of the present staff will be retained in the service of the government. Those persons not required will be pensioned if they have been five Years in receipt of quarterly salaries or seven years of weekly wages from the companies, The Parts Pacrie of the 20th inst., speaking of the Council in Rome, says:— We are assured that the French goverument has Ken a definitive resolutton m the matter of the ancil, it has decided (so 1t | i) that as this distinguished assembiy is to bu { with purely Teligious questions there is no occasion for It either to be represented orto intervene in way whiat- ever. The Counci! will act in full rty, and its theological resolutions will be respected. & letter from Rome to L a states that the Archbishop of New York, who is to attend the Council, has hired a carriage and pair at the rate of 1,200f. per month. The poorer bishops will be enter- tained at the expense of the Pope. Those prelates who provide accommodation for themselves will, it 1s added, hire their rooms for seven or eight Months, but 1t 18 probabie that the deliberations will not last beyond April next. The doctrine of the per- sonal infallibility of the Pope is the only one likely to give rise to any discussiou; but it seems certain that aconsiderabie divergence of opinion exists on this point. The Ultramontane party would probably be found to be in the majority, but possibly the Council might be brought into collision with civil govern- ments. The public will not be admitted even in the Person of reporters. The London Star of the 2ist ultimo remarks:— We have pointed out that three leading points on wich the Irish land question hinges are tenant right, conpensauion for improvements, past and present, and leases. The London conomist says it should not have been surprised if the policy of free trade had been subjected to a more severe criticism after its trial than it bas yet met with. The absoluteness of Its triumph and general acceptance by all parties in the country during a period of less than thirty years from the first experiment of 1842 is rather a cause of wonder. “The structure of society 18 so compli cated, the operations of business are affected by so many different causes, and the effect of legislative changes are so difficult to trace that free trade 1s very singular in its fortune not oniy to have held its ground so long, but to have done so without question—without any misfortune occurring to fur- Dish an opportunity for its opponents to seek a reversal of the policy.’ The London Star—John Bright’s organ—speaking Of the position of Napoleon and the tactica of his enemies, says:— The French Emperor has hardly earned a title to Qny special compassion or considerateness in the hour of his distress. The circumstances of his acces- Sion (0 supreme power were bloody euough to ena- ble us to understand that enemies with vivid memo- ries should be willing wo retaliate with something of ferocity, now that opportunity has piaced the weapon in their hand& So no wonder that the E£clipse shouid present its read- ere with ghastly, horrible and disgusting Ilustrations of the Emperor, his surgeon, of surgi- cal instruments and surgical operations. But if it ig not wonderful that such engravings should be published, should find an audience, and should bring & grin, not wholly benevolent, to the face of Paris, the fact is still to be deplored. The Man or the Sec- ond of December may have biood on iis head. This is oniy the more reason why his foes should respect themselves, and self respect 1s fatiy incon- sistent with this mood of gloating over surgical detaila. Such inhumanities deprave everybody who shares in their evil delights. A London correspondent writing from Paris on the 19th of September says:— Yesterday Lord Clarendon’s audience with the Emperor lasted two hours, alter which his lordship called at the Hotel Bristol to take leave of the Prince of Wales, dined at the Ministere des Atfaires Etrang- ers, and, accompanied by Lady Clarendon and Lord Lyons, went to the Folies Draimatiques to see “Petit Faust.” The Prince de ia Your d’auvergue’s list of Invited to meet our Minister included Lord id Mr, Sheffield, Count Benedetti, General i aron Biliimg and the gentiemen of his household. The Prince of Wales Yacht Ciub has closed its season. Owing to the boisterous state of the weather yachts on different stations couid not get round, and many of the members repaired to Gravesend by rail. The usual dinner was presided over by the commo- dore, Mr. Long, who gave the toast of the evening, “The Prince of Wales Yacht Club,” amidst the ordi- nary plaudits. He congratulated the members of the club on the advantages it had conferreJ on yachting, and the sport it annually atordeq. The Indian News, speaking of the suspension of the Albert Life Insurance Company in ndon, say that the news occasioned for a time something like a@littie panic in Calcutta. Some considered it the greatest biow that Lad fallen upon Indian scciety since the failure of the Agra Bank. Others thought it worse than that, as the class of people woo make provision in like offices have generally no means to accumulate money in banks, and have no means of again making @ start in the world. Others again are too old to pay the high Indian premiums on fresh assurances, and, altogether, the case is a lamentable one. ROME. The Pope’s Reply to Doctor Cumming—Who May Attend the Ecumenical Council. TO THE EDITOR OF THE LONDON STAK:— Sm—By the desire of the Arcubishop, I forward to you the enclosed translation levter addressed to him by his Holiness in reply to the jeter of the Rey. Dr. Cumming. & ng that it may be interesting to some of your readers, the Archbishop places it at your disposai for publication.—I remain, sir, your obedient servant, W. A. JOHNSON, Secretary. No. 8 York place, West, Sept. 20. Pork Pius [X., TO OUK VENERABLE BROTHER HENRY EDWARD, ARCHBISHOP OF \\ eSTMINSTER. VENERABLE BRoTHER—Heaith and the Apostolic blessing.—We have seen from the newspapers that Dr. Cumming, of Scotiand, has inquired of you whether leave will be given at the approaching Council from those who dissent from the Catholic Church to put forward the arguments which they think can be advanced in support of thelr own optu- fons, and that, on your replying that tis is a matter to be determined by the Holy See, he has written to us upon the subject. Now, ifthe inquirer knows what ts the belief of Catholics with respect to the hing authority which has been given by our Divine Saviour to Mis Church, and therefore with respect to its mfalibility in deciding questions which belong to dogina or to morals, he must Know that the Church cannot per- mit errors which it has carefully considered, judged and condemned, to be again brought under discus- sion. This, too, is what has already been made known by our letters, For when we said, ‘it can- not be deuied or doubted that Jesus Christ Himseif, in order that He might apply to ali genera- tions of men the fruits of Hit redemption, built here on earth upon Peter His oniy Church, that is, the one, Holy, Catholic, and Apostolic Church, and gave w tim all power that was necessary for preserving whole and inviolate the deposit oi faith, and for delivering the same faith to all peopies, and tribes, and nauions,” ‘we thereby signified that the primacy, both of honor and of jurisdiction, which was conferred upon Peter and his successors by the Founder of the Church, is placed beyond the hazard of disputation. ‘his indeed is the hinge upon which the whole question between Catholics and all who dissent from them turns ; and from this dissent, as from a fountain, all the errors of non-Catnolics flow. ‘For, inasmuch as such bodies of men are destitute of that living and divinely established authority, which mankind especially the things of faith and the rule of morals, and which also directs aud if verns them in whatever reiates to eternal salvation, so these same bodies of men have varied in their te and their change and instability never ceas parks gM hed inquirer will consider, eithe: opinion which is heid by the Church as to the infal- libility of ite judgment in defining whatever be- | Jongs to faith or morais, or what we ourselves have written respecting the primacy and teaching autho- rity of Peter, ue will at once perceive that no room he can be given at the Council! for the defence of errors which have already been condemned ; and that we could not have invited non-Catholica to a discussion, but have only urged them ‘‘to avail themselves of the opportunity afforded by this council, in which the Catholic Chureh, to which their forefathers belonged, gives a new proof of its close “nity and invincible Vitality and to satisfy the wants of their souls by withdrawing from @ state in which they cannot be sure of their saivation.”’ If, by the inspiration of Divine grace, they shall perceive theirown danger and shall seek God with their whole heart, they will easily cast away all preconceived and verse opinions, and, laying aside all desire of disputa- tion, they will return to the Father from whom they have long unhappily gone astray. We, on our part, will joyfully run vo meet them, and, em) ing them with a father’s charity, we shall rejoice, ani the Church will rejoice with us, that our children who were dead haye come to life again, and that they who were lost have been found. This, indeed, we earnestly ask of God; and do you, venerable brother, join your prayers to ours, In the meanwhile, as a token of the Divine favor and of our own especial benevolence, we most iovingly give to you and to your diocese our Apos- tolte blessing. Given at St. Peter's, in Rome, this 4tn day of Sep- tember, 186%, in the twenty-fourth year of our Pon- titicate. POPE PIUS IX. ‘The Letters Apostolic of September 18, 1868, addressed “To all Protestants and other non-Catholica.”* POLITICAL BIOTING IN PHALADELPMA. The Democratic Keystone Club vs. the Re- pubiican Invincibles—Free Use of Revolvers and Knives—Several Persons Wounded—The Radical Account. From the Philadelphia Post (republican), Oct. ey ‘hilade!phia 18 disgraced—doubly disgraced, Her Supposed guardians, the policemen, are a lie, They are rioters and assassins. Last night's doings proved them to be such, Chestnut street, from Six- teenth street to the bridge, was a scene of blood- shed, and we are shamed to say that some of Mayor ‘ox's policemen are gullty of causing thé blood of innocent men to flow, That tne and gentlemanly organization, the Re- publican Invincibies, left their headquarters, Fifth and Library streets, saortly after eight o'clock last evening, to attend the Republican mass meeung in the Twenty-four:h ward. They marched out Chestnut street peaceabiy until reaching Twenty-third street. As they were passing a stone yard in that vicinity a crowd of Scnuylkill Kangers, urged on by police- meo, mate a Murderous attack upon the club, hurl- ing marble, granite and brickbats into the ranks, A scene of the wildest disorder followed. The Invincibies charged on their enemy, the ailies of the democracy, Who cowardly sueaked into the dark- ness only toemerge at another point near by and resume their bloody work, Several of the club were Knocked down and badly hurt by the flying missiles during the frst onslaught. The injured men were carried into the neighboring dwellings, Where they were kindly cared for. Their names we were unabdie to learn. One of the unfortunate men had his front teeth knocked out, amother had his face terribly gasned, and others were pruised. The Invincib'es maie a rally, hoping to catch some of the villains, It was a(gthis juncture that the policemen took a hand. Instead of attempting to secure the blood- uursty viains who made the attack taey com- menced @ brutal charge with their clubs on the Invincibles and seized three or tour of them. Of course they were rightly resisted. Then the “guar- dians of the peace” drew their revolvers and fired shot after shot into the ranks of the Invincibies, urging the rioters to continue their diabolical work. Two of the members of the club Were shot, a young man named Sharp seriously in the side, and another in the abdomen. Finaily the roughs retreated and the Invincibles reformed and proceeded over the bridge to the Ineetng. A little before eleven o'clock they started on their return to headquarters. Just after crossing the bridge they were again attacked by the cow- ardly rufflans at Twenty-third street. stones were again hurled into the ranks and several members were injured. One named Edward Free, residing in the vicinity of Filth and Cherry streets, was struck on the forehead and dangerously hurt. ‘The attack Was Kept upall the way to Sixteenth Street, the policemen keeping up a fusilade from their revolvers, and firing at least 100 shots, We have the statement from at least a half dozen Invincibles that officer No. 254 was seen to deliberately fire four shots at the club, each time po the wespon so that the loads would take eifect. Auother Riot—Conflicting Accounts. (From the Philadelphia Press (republican), Oct. 2.) ‘The bloody scenes of Tuursday night were last evening re-ehacted with worse results, opposite that supposed stronghold of protection, the Centrai stavion, The threat of Alderman Wiillam McMullin that the peaceful citizens of Philadelphia should be subjected to “mob law’’ on the day of election, is bat too traly confirmed by the roughs who tena- clously hang on the akirts af democracy. The facts of the case are these:—The republican Invincibles, numbering over 500, assembled at their headquarters, Fifth and Library streets, at seven o'clock, Whence they proceeded to the mass meeting of the republicans in the Second ward, which was held at Jefferson and Washington avenues. Alter periorming their duties they paraded through several of our streets, and reached their rooms a few minutes after ten o'clock. No time was lost in exunguisuing their torches and divesting themselves of their equip- ments, which, when done, they received orders to dismiss and retire to their residences. A number of them living in the northern part of the city pro- ceeded up Fifth street as far as Chestnut, when their attention was attracted down the latter thorough- fare by the ringiug of a bell and the glare of hun- dreds of torches. The torch-bearers turned out to be the lawless and disorderly members of the Key- stone Cluo, a sianding monument of the desperate aeuocracy. A number of citizens had gathered along Chestnut street, and, as @ matter of course, the Invincibles paused, anxious to see the display of their opponents. When the Keystones were opposite the Mayor’s oMice they halted, lowered their torches and flags, waved their hats, and cheered for Packer and the democratic ticket, being joined by many a hoarse voice of the Irish policemen. This outburst of false enthusiasm was not to be tolerated by the citizens, who responded in groans. This was the signal for disturbance, and Arthur Potter, a citizen, showed his muscle by striking another citizen, who was qui- etiy standing by. Immediately alter this the Keystones broke ranks, and mad with excitement, and perhaps whiskey, rushed on to Fifth street, drew their revolvers and fired on all pefore them. This occurred at about twenty minutes before eleven o'clock, and the snoot- ing, siabping, clubbing, hurling of brickbats con- tinued for nearly an hour. Many men whose bust- ness kept them out at go late an hour sustained inju- ries Without offering the leastjprovocation, and as usual no discrimination in the selection of victims was made by the band of rumans. When the first sliot was fired Reserve Oficer No. 28, WO 100KS @ Very Lower of strength in himself, and Who was standing at Fifth and Chestnut streets, ran up the latver street as fast as bis legs would carry tm. All ils boon companions who were upou the spot and who were piedged to the democratic party body and soul, beat a hasty retreat into the station house, the doors of which they barricaded, and did not again show themselves untli the smoke of battle nad entirely cleared The only men who acted with coolness and bravery were High Constables Harrison G. Clark, Join Curley and Jobn Kelsh, and special onicers Burns, Roberts and Moore. These oficiala rushed out of the Central and did everything in ther power to quell the fight; but while ammunition jasted passion increased. A large number of persons, many of whom were Invmcibles, were injured, the foilow- ing of whom were brought into the Central station by the above named geatieman:— ‘The frst case was that of William A. Barrett, a tall young man, whose face was pale from the agony which he was enduring. He stated that he was @ peaceful cluzen, and resided at No. 636 Mar- shail street, He was shot in the right side of the head, the bail passing through the skull, ne states, by one of the Keystones. He was bleeding very profusely aud was severely injured, Frank White, of the Keystone Clab, was next broughtin., He said be took no part in the aitair. He Gad an ugly pistol wound in the right breast, two Inches below the nipple, and looked somewhat depressed 1a spirits. Hus residence is at Fifteentu and Sansom streets George D, James, another member of the Keystone Club, aboat tweaty years of age, residing at No. 867 North Ninth street, was the next man. He was cut in the right side of the neck witha Kowe; this cut extended half-way around, was very deep, and must be dangerous, He had a cloth put around his neck aud Was removed to 4s home, A citizen, Ramed William De Groot, residing at No. 1,105 Division street, was brought in, exciaiming, “Pin shot in the foot! buton removing his shoe and stocking @ Mesh wound witha orlek was all that was discovered, These were ali that were brought to the Central, with the exception of Arthur Potter, above men- Uoned, and Charles Shuster, who were arrested for creating the riot, Tue punishment to the Keystone Ciub Was hot alone coufined to ordinary meimbera, bat ite President, Morris T, Nagle, was #hot im the neck—not with @ whiskey bottle, bat with @ bullet. He was taken to the American Hotel, and was more frightened than hurt, his wound velng of # slight character. High Constable Kelsh was soundly rapped over the head several times wit! a lanvern, but considers nimselt fortunate in escaping so luckily. George Paul, & youth about eighteen years of age, was on Library street when te affair took place. His brother tod him to go home at once, when a man dressed in @ black suit stepped out of an alley, pre- sented @ pistol, aud slot hin in the breast, Le was conveyed (o Dr. Agney's Gray store, northeast corner Fifth and spruce screets, where his wounds were dressed, after Which he was taken home tna carriage. What extent of injuries he has sustained cannot at present be definitely ascertained, but it is feared that i) results will follow. Two more wounded individuais came into this store and had their sufferings alleviated, A member of the Invincibies, named Cooper, was snotin the cheek and carried into tho F Office, One of the policemen who was not so fortunate as his brothe: in securing @ place of shelter, named Wm. Varson, was shot inthe leg. A young man, named George Heston, was also shot. Three members of the Key- stone Club and two of the Invincibles were taken to the Pennsylvania Hospital; one of the latter 1s sald to have two of his ribs broken, and is in @ very dan- gerous condition. To make bad worse, the Keystones must wind the afair up with arson. With their lanterus they set on fire and destroyed the magnificent transparency in front of the Invincibles’ head riers, and for some lume tne building was in dap; Not content with this, they must destroy the property of solici- tors by smashing in the doors and windows of their offices; and all these scenes were enacted without a feniereee: sarees “ye oe ssamoneetie aw breaker, who m: ave in, - position of Providence, saved from adding the crime of muraer to his other sins. Alexander P. Colesberry, president of the Invincl- bles, when the affair commenced, walked up to five licemen, who were standing on the corner of fth and Chestnut streets, and begged them to try and ee the disturbance. Their reply was a sneer, and the remark, ‘Go to h—."” ‘This is the close of the second act in the great drama which will be enacted in this city during the resent month, and respecting which we do not tend it necessary to Make any further comments at this time. THE OTHER SIDB. From the Philadelpma Age (democratic), Oct. 2, ast evening the Keystone Club paraded in full numbers, and passed over a long route from Arch to South street, thence to Pine and up to Broad and along Broad to Chestnut, thence to Twelfth and up that street to the Ridge avenue, and along tt for some distance, and then eastwardly to Third street, down which they marched to Chestnut street, and up to be dismissed. And they went along with entire peace and quietness until’ they were passing Fifth street. We cin pore say eiaat ee aoe, aa 1 ly avoided’the route o! \° ism) Ar vod night—in order that there might be no provocation. Testers at noon, Mr. Hamilton, Chairman of the Democratic Executive Committee, hearing that the Invincibles intended to ke a it, ad- dressed a letter to Mr. Nagle, Marshal of the Key- stone Club, asking him to postpone indefinitely the contemplated parade. The Petal to comply with this request nas resulted in this murderous assault upon the Keyston Ch. Mayor Fox also made the same request; but it, was unheeded. When the main boay of the Keystone Club had passed the intersection'of Fifth street, a number of Invincibles, hanging around Fifth and Chestnut streets, commenced hooting at the rear end of the me, This was carried to such an extent that the club rallied to defend its rear, Tney rushed down Fifth towards Library street, at the corner of which is the Invincible headquarters, in the old building of the Mercantile Library. reaching Library street a volley of shots, variously estimated at from 100 to 300, from muskets and pistols, was fired upon the members of the Key- stone (lub, who were unarmed, and consequently were the only persons, except bystanders, who were wounded, The radicals, having fired the volleys, ummediately fed, but not without being hotly pur- sued for a short distance py the Keystone Ciub, who however, soon gave up the pursuit, and it was not Jong before quiet was restored. But few arrests were made, as the offenders had fled before the police in any numbers could be called to the place, RELIGIOUS INTELLIGENCE. Religious Services To-Day. Rev.

The following is a reproduction of the famous Syllabus issued by his Holiness the Pope, im con- nection with the Encyclical in 1364. The document has been specially translated for the HERALD. It well deserves faithful perusal, and it speaks for itself:— Syllabus embracing the principal errors of our time which have been censured in consistorial allo- cutions, encyclicals and other apostolic lettera of our Most Holy Father, Pope Pius 1X. PANTHEISM, NATURALISM AND ABSOLUTE ALISM. First—There exists no supreme all-wise and all- provident divine Being distinct from this universe, for God is the same as nature, and co} uently 18 liable to changes, God, in trath, exists both in man and in the world, for all things are God and have the very substance of God; and as God ts one and the same thing with the universe spirit 1s identical With matter, necessity with liberty, truth with talse- hood, good with evil and justice with injustice. Second—All action of God upon mankind and the world mustwe denied. Third—Human reason, without having any regard whatever to the Deity, is the sole judge of trath and falsehood, of good and evil; it is a law for itself and is suMcient by ite OWN natural strength to provide for the good of men and nations. Ffourth—all the truths of religion spring from the natural power of human reason; hence reason is the chief rule whereby men can and ou; ht to obtain a knowledge of all truths of whatever kind. Fifth—Divine revelation 1s 1m; and conse- quently subject to constant and indefi: progress, corresponding to the progress made by human reason, Sicth—The faith of Christ is opposed to muman reason, and divine reveiation is not only of no ad- Vantage, but is even injurious to the pertection of the human race, Seventh—The prophectes and miracles recorded and narrated in Scripture are but poetical fictions, and the mysteries of the Christian religion are the result of philosophicai investigations; in the books of both Testaments there are to be found fabulous statements, and Jesus Christ himself ig but a myth, MODBRATE RATIONALISM, Fighth—Since human reason stands as high as Teilgion, questions in theology should be treated of in the same manner as those of philosophy. NVuvh—All the dogmas of Christianity without any exceptio.: are the object of natural science or pnii- osophy, and human reason with no other than a his- torical cultivation i capable by ite own natural strength and principles of arriving at a know.edge of even the more abstruse dogmas, provided oniy these dogmas have been proposed w the reason itself as its onject. Tenth—Since the philosopher ts one thing and Philosophy another, the iormer has the right and daty of submitting himself to thas authority which he may have approved of as true, but philosophy neither can nor ought to submit herself to any authority, Bieventh—The Charch shouid not only never ani- Madvert upon but spould tolerate the errors of pbil- osophy, and should jeave it in her hands to correct herself. Tirelfth—The decrees of the apostolic see and Roman congregations luierfere with the iree pro- gress of acience, Thirteenti—The method and principles whereby the ancient scholastic doctors cultivated theology are unsaiied to the necessities Of our time and the of the sciences, nii—Philosophy should be treated without any regard to supernatural revelation. To the system of rationalism belong most of the Anthony Gunther, which have been condemned in epiatie to the Cardinal, Archbishop of Cologne, “Ex. imiam tuam," June 15, 1687, and in that tothe Bishop of Bresiaw, “Dolore baud medidere,” April 80, 1880, INDIPFERENTIOM, LaTITUDINABIANISM. Fifecrtie—Every man ix free w embrace and pro- fess that religion which, led by the light of reason, he may have thought true, Sizteen(h—Men may im the practice of any reli- gion find the path of eternal salvation and attain eternal happiness. Seventeenii—AU least good hopes ought to be entertained of the saivation of those Who in no respect live in the true Church, Aighteenth— Protestantism is only @ different form of thesame true Caristian region, and in it God = os pleased equally a8 much as in the Catholic Jnureh. RATION- SM, SECRET SOCIRTIEG, BIBLE CIRTIBE, CLERICO-LIDERAL, SOCIRTIEBs Lvils of this kind have been frequently condemned, and in the most severe terms, in the Encyclical “Qui Pluribus,” vember %, 1846; in the Allocution eee Quantisque,” April 20, 1849; the Encyclical “Noseitis et Nobiscum,’’ December s, 1849; the Allo- cation “Singulari Quidam,” December 9,154, and bedi ea ‘Quanto Conficiamar Dolore, August 0, 1863. ERRORS CONCERNING THE CAUKCH AND HER RIGHTS. Nineteenth—The Church is not @ true and periect society absolutely Nor does she enjoy peculiar and permanent rights conferred upon ber by her divine founder, but to the civil power it belongs to define what are the Church’s rights and what the limits within which she may have power to exercise thera. Twenteth—The ecclesiastical power should not exercise {ts authority without the permission and aasent of the civil government. Twenty-frst—Tne Church nas not the power of dogmatically defining that the religion of the Catho- Ue Church is the true religion. Twenty-second—The submission absolutely binding Catholic teachers and writers is limited to those things only which have been deciared by the Church’s infallible Judgment dogmas of faith, to be believed by ail. Twenty-ihird—Roman Pontiff’ and Ecumenical Councils have gone beyond the limits of their power, usurped the rights of ces, and even erred in defending matters of faith and morals. Twenty-fourth—The Church has not the power of employing force, nor does she possess any temporal power, direct or indirect. Twenty-/th—Besides the power inherent to the episcopate, another power has been yranted to it by the civil government, either expressly or tacitly, and pay, consequently, be recalied by the civil power at its +P leasure. ‘wenty-sizth—The Church has no inborn and legitimate right of acquiring and possessing. Tw seventh—The sacred ministers of the Church and the Roman Pontiff should be entirely shut out from all care of and dominion over tem- poral things. Twenty-eighth—Bishops ought not to publish even Apostolical letters without permission of the gov- erument, ninth—Favors granted by the Roman Pon- tiff and unsolicited through the officials of govern- ment should be deemed nuil and void. Thirtieth—The immunity of the Church and eccle- slastios take its origin from the civil law. Thirty-first—The ecclesiastical forum for the trial ofclerics, in matters civil or criminal, should be entirely abolished, even without consulting the Holy See, and against its protest. Thirty-second— Without any violation of natural right and equity the personal immunity under which clerics are exempted from the burden of undergoing and discharging miltary duty may be abrogated, and such abrogation ts Gemanded by the progress of city society, especially in a State formed upon the model of free government. ee comes not solely under ecclesiasti- cal Jurisdiction by @ peculiar and natural right to direct the teachings of theology, Thirty-Jourth—The doctrine of those who compare the Roman Pontuf to a ruler, independent and act- ing upon the Universal Church, 18 a doctrine that prevailed only in the middle ages, Thirty-1fth—There 18 nothing to prohibit the supreme pontificate being transferred froin the Roman bishop and city to some other pishop and some otl ¢ State, either by tne decree of a general council or by the act of all the nations. Thirty-sizih—The definition of a national council admits of no further dispute, and the civil power may determine its arrangements on this under- standing. Thirvy-seventh—National churches withdrawn and totally separated from the Roman Pontiif’s authority may be founded. Thirty-eigith—The too arbitrary conduct of Roman Pontiffs contributed to the Church’s division into Eastern and Western, SRRORS CONCERNING CIVIL SOCIRTY CONSIDERED BOTH IN If8EL¥ AND IN ITS RELATIONS TO THE CHURCH. Thirty-ninth—The State, as being the origin and fountain of all rights, possesses a right of its own, curoumpsgp beg by no limits. Fortieth—‘he teachings of the Catholic Church are at variance With the well-being and interests of society. Forty-first—The civil power, even when in the hands of a non-Catholic ruler, has an indirect nega- tuve authority over Ta sacred; consequently it possesses not only the right called exequatur, but that right also known as appel comme d’abdus, Forty-second—In cage of @ conflict betwixt the laws, civil and ecclesiastical, the civil taw takes pre- lence, Forw-third—The State has the right to rescind, declare null and void solemn conventions (com- monly called concordats) having reference to the exercise of rights appertaiuing to ecclesiastical immunities entered into with the Apostolic See, washony this See's consent, and even against its protest. Forty-fourth—fhe civil authority may take cogni- zance of matters appertaining to religion, morals and spiritual government. Hence it may pass juag- ment on those instructions which the pastors of the Charch, in discharge of thelr duty, issue for the guidance of consciences, and even it may determine concerning the administration of the holy sacra- mene and the dispositions necessary for receiving them. Forty-fjth—The whole government of public schools in which the children of any Christian State are educated—episcopal seminaries only being in some degree excep’ and ought to be given up to the ctvil power, and given up in such sort that no right of interference by any ovher authority be recognized as to the management of the schools, the regulation of the studies, the conferring of degrees and the choice or approbation o the teachers, Forty-sizth—Even in ecclesiastical seminaries the method of studies to be adopted is subject to the decision of the State, = Rloweta society requires’ Wat "POburkt” SEHBNA” whiten “wre open to the children of every class, and public insti- tuttons in general which are devoted to teaching literature and science and providing for the educa- tion of youth, should be withdrawn from all authority of the Church and from all her directing influence and tnt and subjected to the com- plete control of the Baad deen authority, go as to accord with the ideas of the rulers of the State ry the standard of opinions commonly adopted by the age. Forty-eighth—Catholics may approve of that method of instructing youth which, while putting aside the Catholic faith and the Church’s authority, looks exclusively, or at least chiefly, to the know- tna hese natural things and the ends of worldly soc! r Forty-ninth—The civil power has the right of pre- venting bishops and the faithful from holding free and mutual communication with the Roman Pontiff. eth—The civil authority has of itself the right of presenting Vad and can require of them to enter upon the care of their dioceses before receiv- ing canonical appointment and apostolical letters from the Holy See. Fifty-first—The State has alsothe right of depos- ing bishops from the exercise of their pastoral charge, and 1s not bound to obey the Roman Pontuf in those things which regard the estabiishment of bishoprics and the appointment of bishops. Fifty-second—Government may, in its own right, change the age prescribed by the Church for the re- lugtous profession of men and women, and may require of religious orders that none be admitted to take solemn vows without its permission, Fifty-thtrd—The laws securing the status of religious orders, and the exercise of their rights and duties, should be abolishea; the State even should ina f help to all those who wish to withdraw trom he religious life they have entered upon, and to break their solemn vows; and in like manner the State has power to suppress religious orders, col- Jegiate churches and simple benefices, even such as are under the right of a patron, and at its pleasure seize upon their ‘and revenues, subjecting them to the pubiic service. Fifty-Jourth—Kings and princes are not only out- side the Church’s jurisdiction, but take precedence of the Church in determining disputes that have ref- erence to jurisdiction.

Fifty-sizth—The laws of morality need no divine sanction, and it is not at all necessary that human laws should be made contormable to the law of nature or receive their binding force from God. Pity-seventh—Philosophical and moral science, and State laws likewise, may and should withdraw themselves from the jurisdiction of divine and ecclesiastical Sathority. . Fifty-eighth—No other power should be recog- nized but material force, aud all moral discipline and virtue should have for its end the accumulating and augmenting wealth in every way possible, and satiating the desire of pleasure.

Sirty-fyii—in DO Way can it be conceded that Christ raised matrimony to the dignity of a sacra- ment, Shety-stoth—The sacrament of marriage is only an accessory to the contract, and is divisibie from it, and that sacrament exists simply in the nuptial ben- ediction, Siety-seventh—The bond of matrimony 1s nos indis- soluble by the nasural law, and divorce, 1m the strict meaning of the word, may, ip various cases, be sanc- toned by the civil weap Sintyeignth—The Church has not the power of enacting diriment impediments to marriage, such power belonging to the St yy Whose authority existing impediments of that kind may be removed.

A Sew Words About the Church of Christ and and the Second Comi: To THE Epivor OF THE HERALD:— In your issue of last Sunday “C. F, P."’ {nqutres, “Where is that Church which Christ commanded all to obey under pain of incurring that penalty which He promised to impose on all who refused to hear its voice?” The Ohurch, according to our Saviour, comprises all those who have been bap- tused in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost. Although to the outward eye we see water used in the ordinance of baptism, to the spiritual mind fs seen the actual remission of sin and the ingrafting of the person into Christ; our past sins are forgiven, and we are made mem- hers of the body of Onrist. The apostle Paul in the twelfth chapter of First Corinthian: thirteenth verse, {says, ‘For by one spirit are we al. baptized into one body, whether we be Jews or Gen- ttleg, whether we be bond or free; and have been all Made to drink into one Spirit.” The Church is called the “Body of Christ,” having many members, and all the members of that one body, being many, are one body. In the fourth chapter of Ephesians the Apostle says, “When He (our Lord and Saviour) ascended up on high, Me led captivity captive and gave gifts tomen. And He gaye some apostles, and some, prophets, and some ev: its, ahd some peners and teachers, for the perfecting of tne saints, for the work ofthe imuinistry, for the edifying of the body of Christ, till we all come in the unity of the faith, and of the Knowledge of the Son of God, unto @ perfect man, unto the measure of the stature of the fulness of Christ. ‘That we henceforth be no more children, tossed to and fro and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the sleight of men and cunning craftiness, whereby they lie in walt to deceive.’ Here we have the establisued order for guidance of the Church. Apostles were opposed even during their lifetime, and the last of them, the apostie Jonn, was banished to Patmos. The question arises, has the Church arrived at perfec- tion; 1s there unity of faith and hope? On the con- trary, we see divisions among the baptized, calling themselves by sectarian yames, There is but one body, but one church; and apostles, prophets, evan- gelists and pastors the ministries appointed by our Saviour for its audience. Tney have been re- Jected by the baptized, and men have chosen leaders and guides for themselves, The consequence nas been that contusion and discord has spread through- out the Church, and men know not which way to turn. God, in his infinite mercy, has restored in these last days His fourfold ministry (not the satanic Imitation of Mormonism); He 18 caliing upon the baptized to be united and prepared for the appear- ing pt our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, whose near approach is indicated by tae signs which are plainly to be seen. Let us cast aside our own will and do the will of God. I. L. M. What the Science of Chemistry Demonstrates Views of a Materialint, To THE EDITOR OF THE HERALD:— In my last two short letters I referred to the chief proofs which the sciences of astronomy and geology afford of that great truth, that the central orb and be newotrine.wlanota in oll alam ayetome eltoruate with each other in being sources of light and heat, either to the other. In this letver I wish to call some attention to the most satisfactory, proofs afforded us of this great proof by the sctence of chemistry. Chemistry informs us that the water, which covera by far the larger portion of our eartn, in some places for miles in depth, 1s composed of two elementary gases, called oxygen and hydrogen, which, when united In certain proportions, may be reduced from their expanded, gaseous state of oxygen and hydro- gen gas into the concentrated fluid state of water. ‘That one of these component parts of water (oxygen) In its gaseous state is absolutely necessary to enable flame of light, burning or combustion to be poasible—no flame or burning being ever known toexist fora moment without the presence of this oxygen gas—that therefore it ts one of the essential component parts of the air of our atmosphere, in which state ils power of supporting combustion or burning is very mach weakened by its union with anotuer gas cailed nitrogen. Nevertneless wo all know how essential common air is to maintain fre, Maine, burning or combustion anywhere, and how rapidly @ fire is increased by a plentiful supply of air being forced upon it. This power of the air to assist in burning is weil known to be wholly owing tg the amount of oxygen contained in 1t—weakened as this oxygen 1s by its union with the nitrogen in the alr; yet we every day see how capable it 1s to Maintain the burning or combustion of all the ordi- nary combustible material about the sur‘ace of our earth—such a8 wood, cowl, &c, &c. Were this oxygen gas in its pure siate it is quite capable of supporting the burning or combustion of such material as chalk and the aqueous rocks in general as easily as when united wita nitrogen in our atmosphere it supports the burnings of such ordinary combustible material as wood or coal, &c. ‘This can be tested by any practical chemist, so that he may see for himseif ‘that such substances as chaik and the aqueous rocks which Compose the crast of our earth jor miles in depth are as combustible, with a plentiful supply of oxygen gas, a8 ordinary coal is With a plenti:ui sup- piy of atmospheric alr, . : Hydrogen, or the other component parts of water in tts gaseous state, Nas recently been proved by the spectroscope, during the late eclipses of the sun, to be the very element which constitutes the photo- sphere of that great luminary. ‘hus it is clearly seen by the ald of the scietice of chemistry that water, which covers by far tne larger portion of our earth, in sume places for miles im depth, con- tains, in @ concentrated fuld state, the elemen- tary gases, oxygen and hydrogen, which are quite capable of gradually consuming the aqueous rocks which compose the crust of our earth for miles in depth, during the thousands of years fu- ture, a8 easily a8 the same water, in its fuid state, gradually formed those various layers of rock during ‘he thousands of years past; ag the science of geol- ogy fully proves, In short, the science of chemistry proves to us Most indubitably that were all the water about our earth expanded into its original component parts of oxygen und hydrogen gas, the oxygen gas thereby evolved would be amply sufficient to support the combustion of the whole surface of our earth; and the hydrogen gas also thereby evoived wouid be suf- ficient vo provide our earth with @ photosphere like that of the sun in proportion to its size, Thus we Jearn also that the hydrogen gas, which envelopes the san for #0 Many thousands of miles In depth, forming its photosphere, combined with the oxygen gas necessary to support the combustion of the whoie surface of that great central orb, is also amply sufficient, were it reduced to its fluid state, to supply the whole surface of the sun with Water avundantly; were that great source of lightand he sooner or later to exhaust all the combustible material about its surface, and so be- come extinguished for lack of fuel, and coo! off, and prepare itself to become inhabita like our earth and the other planets are at present, aud vius have need to receive back again from our earth and the ower revolving pianets that light and heat which it has so liberally furnished them for #0 many thous- ands of years past. Thus is itseen that wheu the propuecy i# fuifilied which decidres that “the ele- ments shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also,and the works which are therein, shall be burnt up,’ such @ state Of things is merely a provision made in the ordimary course of nature, that animal and vegetable life may perpetually exist in one part or another of @ solar systein, in spite of the mutable havure inherent in aii material objects. ‘Thus, when the earth and aii the other planets which revolve round our sun “grow old,” as naturally “as doth a garment,” and are no long pable of sustaining animal or vegetable life, u have they at the sane time become admirably fitted to act as sources of light and heat to the great central orp of our sular system, which, of course, will simultanconsly have burnt itself out, and so prepared itself to graduaily become inhabitable for plants, trees, animals and beings more or less like man, STATEN ISLAND. Fike aT NEW BRIGHTON.—Late on Friday night @ fire occurred at New Brighton, on the Hamilton Park estate, resulting in the destruction of the lumber i and carpenter shops, with all its contents of ‘aches, paints, mills, and materials, together with a large aimount of vaiuadle prepared lumber tn the yard adjacent, all of which had been gathered with & view to extensive building operations in the “Park.

A Practical Astronomer and Painful Bare- moter—Going to Court Under Difiicultios— Napoleon’s Doctor and the Empress’ Visit to the East—Eugenie’s Morning Drese—The Emperor at Church—Qutdoor Costumes— Oriental Toilets and Eastern Divinitioe— “Fly Trains,” Short Skirts and Hungarian Boote—Riding Suits and Huguenot Beavere— Plaids and Patterns, PARIS, Sept, 15, 1869. “Sir,” once observed a querulous old uncle, lying up with the gout, to a nephew who differed with him on the subject of @ snow storm, “I nad rather you would give me a slap in the face than contradict me about the weather, as if my big too wasa't a sigan for any one to go by.” Thus it is with us all—ladies not included, of course, who are not supposed to have big toes—but each of us im our sphere has a sign to go by that ought to be trusted; private warnings, I should call them, such as hair turning gray, @ crow’s-foot print round the eyes, & dimness of perception over thread- ing needles, &c.; and it is aggravating to be contra- dicted by people who are not taugat by these signs; it tg as bad as being assured that one’s shoe pinches behind, when we feel it is all the time squeezing one’s favorite corn on the side. This leads me to say Ihave been contradicted by every one of the French papers on the subject of the Empresa’ intended visit to Constantinople, while I had every Authority to know she would go, and from the begin- ning described her tollets, Since yesterday journal- ists have turned round and announced that her Majesty had not countermanded the orders given for her visit to the Sultan (on the Sth of October, and I say they do all deserve the reminder which the above uncle said he would ltke his nephew to give him, and which the nephew felt he would liketo, On reading the rectified para- graph in the dailies I hastily left for the palace of St, Cloud to ascertain if the itinerary had been changed and had got past the first sentinels, when I waa called to atop and trespass no further; but | am accustomed to it, and giving out the name of a gen- eral on whom | was calling was allowed to pass on. Thad passed the third row of guards in the inner courts when I was stopped again. Then I gave out the name of a chamberlain and was free to go on. When I arrived at the Chamberlain’s outer halla found out I haa to speak to one of the Emperor's physiciaas, and as it was consultation time of course Thad to wait, and while I was waiting I got all the igformation I wanted, I will record it as it waa given. It was last Monday; the Empress had got up verg early indeed, for when M. Nélaton, who ts atyled Doctor Tant-Pis (80 much the worse,” Im our tongue), looked in to see how the Emperor had spent the night at about a quarter to eight, there he found her Majesty talking to Napoleon III, who waa wide awake. The Empress was in @ scarlet merino dressing gown, quite loose round the figure, round her snowy neck a rufile of white lace, and the same fell over her hands; her fair hair was looped up from the tempies by a light tortoise-shell comb, and brushed back to keep the curls of the preceding night out of the way. She had been standing there ever since seven o'clock talking all about Constantincpie and saying What @ divappointment {it would be to the Sultan, and such an expense for nothing to him already, and if she did go on a visit of five days to Constantinople she would not stop one minute more than five days with the Knedive at Suez. The Empe- ror Sra: how about Venice? Well, Mme. ee aki could make the arrangement with Cheva- her Nigra. Soon after this the three other physicians arrived and the Empiess went to dress on hearing that the Emperor was as well as could be expected, hls re- covery still in progress. On the day before the Emperor had attended msa@ in the palace chapel, and at three in the afternoon the young prince had gone to the fair of St. Cloud with Dr. Conneau’s son and the two sonsof Dr. Carvisart, Here they had tried their hands at@rchery in one of the best booths, aud at halfpast nine every inmate of the palace had gone to b Wy to return to Monday. After the few words were Sesseth ler between myself and the physician I discovered | had more friends to Visit in the dif- Jerent services of the palace, and can thus continue the bulletin of the day. The Emperor was shaved at nipe o’clock by nis valet, Feix; at ten he break- fasted alone with the Empress; he took a roll and a cup of tea. After this tragai meal his secretary and the Gene, Fleury and Le Boouf were aamitted; o later General Malherbe, to take orders ,for the day. Meanwhue the Empress, in a lovely brown morning costume, with poult underskirt and flissé flounce, brown cashmere tunic fringed with silk, curs and bodice with velvet revers, a white li fichu inside and small bow of white lace in her hau was set the programme of her East—trom Paris to Venice; from Venice stantinople, Alexandria, Cairo, Suez, and Constanti- nople again. This programme is liable to change; but this was the arrangement made with the assist- ance of M. Darvillier, her Majesty’s equerry. At half-past three horses were put to two carriages for adrive. The Emperor, in a black frock coat and the order of the Legion of Honor, entered the first with the Empress, in a dark silk having a tight casaque, under the deep fringe of which a second trimming of frilled white lace of the same depth as the fringe. ‘This 1g the greatest novelty, In the second carriage came the service of honor for the week and Dr. Car- visart—rather a@ coachful, by the way. The drive lasted one hour and ten minutes, through the Bois. down by the lakes, the cascade, the race course, and home again. Before dinner her Majesty sat down to learn her Egyptian lesson. She is much interested in archw- ology, and is getting up hieroglyphics. Her ni the Duchesses of Abe, gape and yawn terrifically When the distinguished and learned scholar walks 11 Who gives them instruction on antiquity, whereas Hugénie de France sits up as straightas @ sphinx for the sake of example, because all the centuries are going ‘to look down on her,’ As the days follow and her Majesty improves, ladies are getting more and more hieroglyphic ani heraldic every day. They have already got used to the Chinese robe, all sweeping crepe de chine, to the Oriental mantle with wide sleeves richly braided with gold, to tue embroidered peach-colored and amethyst and aqua marine silks.

The ugliest divinities, in their worst incarnations, with arms and iegs all over, are perched upon Japan shelves and called “dear little gods.” Vishnu and Kishnu, the former kissing his Tavorite wife, Latchoung, who can turn her eyes five Ways at one time, are in great demand. Bete! poxes, orange silk tissue from Cochin China, maiachite chessmen in front of coral chessmen on inlaid boards, trophies of weapons, fliigree and all other Asiatic luxuries, are the shadows of the styles we are coming to, The fy train is quite an institution—not a flying train that conveys one from one region to auother, bat the train ladies put on and take of when they wish—a most convenient fashion, too, if when ladies did put it on they would have a om of lead put in here and there to keep it from veing so flighty in the faces of the cavailers. It is hoped these trains will be of heavier material than puff gauzes as the cold comes on. [ have seen @ Splendid one of biack poult worked with pouwpa- dour bouquets and trimmed with revers of velves and black ace. This over any flounced skirt of silk with square open bodice will be @ standing fashion for next season, Dancing in short skirts with Hun- garian boots is a relief and hope for the future. Concerning furs, ermine and grebe will be full dress, sable and brown Canadas the senous and ele- gant trimming for fly-trains, velvet manties dla Metternich, and even in stripes on robe ¢ tablier, but chinchilla and shaggies will be the fancy spoils and mink gray fur will line carriage cloaks and wraps. The finest will be seen on satin at balls. Nothing 18 iovelier on snowy shoulders than the cou- tour of @ bodice bordered with fine brown fur. A NEW IDBA FOR GASTRONOMISTS, Paris dinuers are to inaugurate new desaorts this winter. Fruit will appear on the branch, not cuted and placed on the dish ag before. Grapes on the vine will climb up candelabra, and figurines are being composed to hold boughs. How the folli is to be preserved fresh and green is the hortioultur- iss secret; how the fruit isto grow thus high and no higher, a discovery which will increase the price ofa dinner considerably. Hothouse currants and hothouse cherries seem improvabilities at present. Velvet roves are to be the great dinner styles, worked with gold and silver, Kiang habits of brown holland have appeared at some of the meets round the manors; but the ele- gant tight-fitting bine cioth Amazone, with a linen collar and bright necktie, doeskin gioves and mous- quetaire hat, are preferavie. Troabadour or Huguenot beavers are much adopted in Paris, by men as by women. Itis so geueral a fashion that I have given up standing before gentie- men Who wear thom, in expectation of a serenade on 4 guitar or pretty mountain song. Since [have noticed these olve-green Tyrolean hats on the heads of Young men, driving a phaeton and pair, | have kept all the sous I generally do give to wearers of fancifal costumes for myself. The following are the favorite plaids for next sea- son:—The Grant—scariet, blue and green; Forbes — green white and biue; Gladiator—biue and scariet; Forty-second—biue and green; Violet Mac—black and violet, The Vienna shades, with maroon, are not named, but will be much worn. A despatch informs me before closing that the Minister of the Foreign OMice has addressed a special memotre to the Empress, in which he beseeches her to give up the jonrney to Suez, The reasons he gives are covered with mystery, but itis likely it is thought imprudent to honer the Viceroy by treating him with the same favor as his suzerain, The Ku. press 18 to leave Marseilles on board the Hagle on the th, toarrive on the 12th at Constantinople, aud return to pha 4 pop the 26th prox, A large party was given last Sunday by Prince: Mauntide at her Tesidonce of St. Gratien. “ne iH wore much shaken up in their white neckties the cars of the Northern |ine before they arrived, and were introduced very bilious looking. ‘The prettiest lady's toilet was a turquoise bine, trimined with Asiatic gauze and black velvet bows, ‘The panter was gauze, worked with gold, TT RT in
