THE fiIIiEGGLE - IN ROME: 41. Sharp Criticism of the Connell. The Pad .Mali Gazette says: The Council has now met three timee, and to the interval the relative VoSition of ,parties has certainly gained hr distinctness.. ; During the last week the agitation in ecclesiastical Cir cles has decidedly not abated;, , On the tow trary,it has been on the increase, for the strug gle that has to be fought out ba3 come to be more clearly defined, and already the rival forces are engned. --A very . remarkable inci dent has occurred to give a novel anpect to the otintest:.. ,The grent qinistion of the dogma prointses to be decided not so much upon its speculative merits as on a paint- of privilege. Since the:bishops have come .to • Rome they have be-collie disagreeably sensible of the infe rior position to which it has been sought to re duce them. The pretepsions of the Pope to , cieldilie their paters of initiative, and to make Thosy.okaq original motion dependent on his have wouuded the episcopal sense of dimityy.. The, first, result was the maul *Offen'. on the part of , not a few biablatis . which induced. the Vatican natio carry out its intention of solemnly pros 2w:hating, at the opening session, the prepared bull containing the invidlouS rules of ,procedure. It was threatened that if this were done a pro test Would be then and there made by several prefateS. The deferential nature of the Roman epigeopitte in presence of the Pope is so great that it would have been truly matter for stir prise.if so spirited au act had been performed. )6.doubt the opposition exhibited is of a far More pronounced character than had been an ticipated, and the firm language and carriage of bishops from various countries have produced a deep impression:` It is long since in Rome there .has been witnessed such a display of in dependence amongst prelates as just now. At all events, the Pope did not cause the hull to be read before , the assembly, nor has it been since o formally premulgated,b tit it has been given to the. bishops, and in official circles its direc tions are assumed to be obligatory. I appre , prebend, however, that this instrument is still ' quite informal, and that no canonist of good faith could ascribe to its provisions binding force ,so long as it has not been promulgated in accordance with established forms. It is upon this point of the order of procedure - that the struggle has arisen. The bishops in opposition affirm their privileges to be invaded by the Pope in thisinstrumen, which reduces the Council to a mere board, acting under strict direction, and - Within limits of-discussion. It is the opin ion of competent individuals that the attitude taken up by the discontented prelates augurs well for the opposition. Still it is impossible for one who knows the weak constitution of the priestly nature to rate very highly the courage hitherto displayed. An open protest against the Pope's excessive pretensions, an outspoken vindication of the freedom of the Colwell, has not yet come to pass. There has been a good deal of whispering and of bidden consultation with. a view of doing eome thing,er other; it -is creditably affirmed that some overt - steps have been taken to get a me morial signal to the Pope, and , there is no doubt that several prelates of distinctiati, as notably the Bishop of Orleans and Cardinal Schwarzenberg, openly and boldly take their stand. But it'is not half a dozen prelates by themselves, however high in rank and .estima lion; who'can' arrest the onward course of the extreme party. To do this they must be able to present themselves with a phalanx behind their backs sufficiently firm to command -re spect, and sufficiently numerous to inspire alarm at such a possible defection from the Chiuth. It is something to be told that the.. numbers of the opposition are confessedly greater than had been deemed likely in the Vatican. Mill the highest number reckoned • on would only amount to a serious minority. It is certainly curious—so curious as to amount well . nigh to a satire—to hear on the one hand the magniloquent phrases in which the sycophantic parasites of the Vatican des cant on the; greatness and majesty of the CounciVand on the other to Watch with what intense vigilance everything is excluded that is not . strictly of one color. The assembly. which it is professed sits in sovereign judgment on affairs affairs of the Christian world, is sternly o.r.t.d to -abstain from all but one carefully sifted form of intellectual food. A tremendous questiori is at this moment assumed to be weighed by the congregated theological science of Catholicism. We are told that Rome has DOW wi MO its walls all the doctors—episcopal or gradoa.ted—in the lore of Catholic doctrine, and it is sought to make outsiders believe that this aristocracy of the Church's intellect has referred to its mature and free judgment the interests of the Church and the plenary consideration of the countless deep and grave problems of modern times and modern society. The least that a "gathering of such high quality must predicate is, if not freedom of speech, at least, freedom of study. As for freedom of speech,no bishop, even on a matter submitted by the Pope, can open his mouth if he has not days before in scribed himself, while on a spontaneous mo tion his mouth is absolutely closed, except by favor. As regards that other still more essen tial liberty—the liberty of reading—of refreshing the mind by access to the current literature of the day—the evidence thereof is furnished by the blank shelves of the few book-shops in Rome, and the reply given you at the post office, if you are raw enough to tender - an order-for any well-known periodical or newspa per: Try • to order the Revue des Deux „..Iforide.s, and" you will find it 'under so inexorable a ban that even for the most favored this excellent publication is forbidden. Content yourself with your Dibcds, and the experience will be the same. ,itThese two journals are absolutely prohibiteffffrom entry t within the pure precincts of the I • ly City, as if they were the incarnation q • profanity. Seek the Auffstmr,g Gazette, and . our money will be taken, but you will he itn - y if ever.) , weelc you have not a number or two withheld. As for" English papers, the Thins has been stopped four days running, and so on to the end with every journal that is not an abject production of Roman inspiration. But, per haps, it ,may be thought that the stringent police is confined to the press, and that free access is allowed' at this season to the learned volumes that have been published ou ecelealastical topics 'of late. The Coun cil is • called together to decide the vroblem of infallibility, and it might seem but, fair that those who sit in judgment` on a case should be admitted to the fullest con sideration of all its bearings: Yet at this time not a scrap of literature which is not the reflex of the Chula Cattollea can be got legitimately in Rome. "Janus" was put ou the "Index" , when the bishops were about to enter the council-hall to come to an untrammelled opinion, as we were told, on the merits of the subjects discussed by gm. treatise. 3laret, is a. 'bishop and sits in the Council, but, if you go into any shop in Rome you cannot find his book; because, though not on the " Index" (for this seemed a questionable stretch even for the Jesuits), a significant hint has been given to the poor helpless booksellers. that they had better not be fotuid fijrnishing it. In a, word, the whole ' profession of liberty of discussion and liberty of delibera tion is a sham. The bishops are gagged. That a gallant effort is being made by some to break their bonds is true and very meritorious. UnfOrtunately it Is - a great deal their own • fault that they now find themselves in their present position. ' Even Dupanloup must often reproach himself. with having assisted by his I prevlOns attitude to swell, the suffocating load against which he is now struggling. It is, boWever l a cheering fact that all sense of innate dignity has not become 'absolutely pul verized in • the epistopate, and, whether yid°. rions;or(as we fear) overborne on the point selected for' the :present Stand, we may hope., eat tho fae of 'the stand publicly made and' conacietitiOnsly ' avowed will prove - the memorable starting-point for au enduring and growing reactions PEABODY Hui NON IN LONDON An InterestinlC Sketch. A foreign correspondent of the Boston Away/ writes a very chitty letter from Lon= don, from "which we take the-following ox tracts . s. vlsiT'TO"rtAßWir• , . I postpone my family , for a future time, and must tell you of my visit' to Mr. Peabody's.model buildings, near' Islington,, or • rather the buildings which the trustees of his fund built according to:their own ideas. Told • that Peabody square was, the most favorable specimen of these groups of workingmen's homes, a I drove down there on a recent Sunday, and a foggy one. My route lay through Isling ton, and long before coming there we drove through one of those , interminable 'streets called roads 'in London, where one sees only immense 'museums of trade• and horrible , poverty. There were some characteristic sights, not much seen out Or. London; such as the timid street preacher, shivering ,' in the dreary weather with his hat before . a gang , . •of • dirty looking cut-throats, gathered- up to- hear the Lord's Word,frem all the noisome dens of the quarter. In those knots of listeners (although I can't, say _they listened very respectfully) there were sriclr fitees as you see now nowhere else save in Ire.riler's pictures of boors. There was au absolutely devilish ignorance in them. London does not produce types flattering to the English race. The preacher's sermon was usually in the broad dialect of the provincial, some rough workingman, come "down •to Lumley " to give the substrata a chance for cleaning. It was just the time, too, that the public houses were opening for their afternoon campaign, and there were blear-eyed women and drunken men standina 6 against the doors, waiting .to get in and get drunker. A lot of shameless girls were parading with some half crazy sailors, indulging in vile conversation ; and the usual numbers of petty swindlers were plying their trades behind the street. preachers' backs. But the neighborhood was more re spectable toward Peabody square. The fog, however, was of the consistency of cream, and seemed,to strike us in the face as we cut through it. At last cabby showed me up a nanrow and dark alley,which finally opened on :a square, around which were ranged four fine five-Story stone blocks, each exactly like the. other. Here were no quarreling or fighting children, no drunken women, no, discouraged looking men. There were flowers in the win dows, and bright, happy faces looked out from among them, but the blocks had a prison-like appearance nevertheless. There was not a blade of grass or a twig to be seen in the stone-Paved yard; and the fog settled down into the area worse than outside. • The outer doors were open, and I soon made the ac quaintance of a brawny English woman in the porter's lodge of one of the blocks. How many families were there in each building ? • " Forty-two, and p'raps six in a family,. sir." So I began to question her on the internal arrangements of this London Sybaris ;'because you often hear it said that Mr. Peabody's ,money had been misused, and that the workmen pay too highly for their tei‘pments. " Me'n My husban' has been porter (sic) here for more'n two year, an' my man was here-from the beginnin', sir. We likes it ever so much. We pays four shillin' a week for these two rooms, and most o' them generally pays the some. 'Tisn't dear—oh no ! but it's about all most of them can pay. Still—" We looked into some of the rooms. It de pended on the taste, more than the resources .01 the individual tenant, bow comfortable he made himself. There were neatly tiled floors, whitewashed walls. The rooms were small, but planned as economically, as to space, as a traveling jacket. I noticed especially that each room was well lighted and ventilated. Some families bad three rooms, so planned as to avoid any of the lamentable lack of decency which large families, crowded into small tene ments, sometimes exhibit in' London and New York and Boston. Each floor is divided into lettered sections, which are traversed by spa cious corridors.. Each tenement or suite . of rooms has one door. numbered, opening on these corridors. , There are iron traps in the halls in each story, into which the dirt and rub bish from each tenement is swept, so that there is no chance for an accumulation of filth. In the upper story of each building is a -co-opera tive laundry, *which the women also consider as their Exchange, and where they get ac quainted over their work. "Most all on us knows every other one on us here," said the.portress. Pity Mr. Peabody didn't specify that all the tenants under his fund should be taught grammar 1 4 There was gas hi many of the rooms, but that was paid for as an extra. "'Are these workmen living here of what you would call the better class 1" I aakeil. " 1 rather think not; sir," was the answer. "Most o' them does COIIIIIIOII sort 'o work, 'n sometimes they hasn't any, in the dull. season, but they manages to stick by the square, in any case. Me 'n my man does all the hirin' rooms, and we never has any dispute. All pays, alters." Which rather proves that the workmen Lind it cheap and advantageous to live there; be cause collecting rents elsewhere, in the dens which ale made to serve the poor as houses, is sometimes even dangerous. But you have only to put a man in a den to make him a beast.' So, in this square here are one hundred and sixty-eight families, averaging six members each, renting comfortable rooms in a clean, airy and respectable quarter of the city, for about five dollars per month per tenement. Their condition is much improved by the ar rangements made for them, and any drunken ness or fighting in the building is never known. They were much more order ly on this Sunday than the buildings in Harvard or Yale. prob ably were, What was better, I saw, in many of the rooms, the men at home, evidently en joying the society of their families, instead of swilling beer at the public house. I should give my testimony in favor of the success of Mr. Peabody's money as a most practical beneficence. Saw the buildings in' Pancras square. They were the same in general plan, •ind the testimony of the people living in them, whom I, talked with, showed that they were successes as model tenements. Agitation in Portugal. A Madrid letter of December 13th to the London Times gives some recent observations of affairs in Portugal as follows: The national burdens are heavy, and witch discontent exists. The young King is cOin pletely in the bands of the Ministry, presided over by the Duke de Louie, which iNfluistry. is said to be exceedingly unpopular: The young King himself is not without hisienendes; and there is one paper published in Lisbon, La Linternc, part icularly giVen to.abuse him- Not. long ago, on, coining out of the theatre of San Carlos, accompanied by the Queen and the Countess de Sousa, a vendor of this paper went up to the coach and offered one to, the' King, saying impudently, '6 Yule tin palm, pero para r". M. es gratis'—"lts value is a palm° (small coin), but for your Majesty it is gratis!" The countess snatched the Paper out of his band and threw it to the ground, calling hire' afuribundo. The vendor, enraged, mounted the step of the coach, and continued' insulting the party until it drove oft No police were near, and it was not until long after that the ragamuffin was arrested. The old. Duke of Saldanha, Portuguese Ambassador .to Pails, who has played Many an Minortar:it Partin the history of Portugal, and is the leader of the party who desires to overthrow and supplant the existing ' Ministry, is now in Lisbon, and has lately created a commotion there which at one time looked likely to lead to serious re sults, if not to revolution. ' It was in this wise: The - POrtuguese are in the • habit of keeping up the anniversary of their Inde pendence (December 1, 1040). On the Ifrst instant there .werp the . cnatOrnary rejoie ings, iffiumiriations . ; Zre.

The garrison was, placed under, arms.- More than this, three superior - officers, whom , the goVernment Suspected, were ordered to leave Lisbon and report themselves at distant points of the kingdom. 'After the relation of -some intervening dr cumstances the letter goes on to say ; • - The inflammatory placards still continued. One of these give you as a specimen; which was circulated with profusion in. Lisbon last week: " Citizerisl A duty of national honor calls us to 'arms. To arms against the Palace ! To arms against the Crown! To arms against the King ! Let us rush to arms, and let our war cry be : " Down with the King ! Vice la Re publica I" . The Government 'arrested several Officers, among them General Baron de Zezere, whom they sent to the Castle of San Julian de Barra. ~ • - La Fontaine was far froth, being well ac quainted with the habits of animals. "The grasshopper," he says,, "sings all summer." But, objects M. do Remusat, in an article in the Revue des Deux Mondes, the grasshopper can not sing all the summer, for the summer lasts three good months, while the grasShopper only lives 'a few weeks. The fabulist makes the imprudent grasshopper complain that he has "not a fly, not amonu to eat." But, says M. de Remusat, tbe grasshopper, instead of flies and worms, eats vegetable substances alone., The grasshopper implores the ant to give him "a little corn to go on with." But, Says M. de Remusat, the ant is carnivorous; and not a grain of corn is ever fOund in his habitation. As for La Fontaine's asserting that the ant will live three days on a piece of straw—," Vit trois jours d'un brin d'herbe entre quelques fourmis" —he might as well say that a man lives on bricks and mortar. Ants are often seen carry ing pieces of straw, but that is for building, not for eating purposes. The Sultan thinks he will have a Mu. There is the small commencement of a mu seum. in some outbuildings adjoining the Church of St. Irene (now an armory) at Con stantinople. It contains several objects of more or less interest, including some tablets with Greek inscriptions, which (as the officer in charge of the arrangement understands only Turkish and a few words of Frerich) are, in many cases, placed upside down. The appre ciation of the Sultan for the antiquities of Stamboul is well shown by the fact that he has presented to his mother its picturesque and ancient walls. That lady recognizes the value of the gift by disposing of them to the highest bidder among the building contractors of the city. finder their hands they are rapidly disap pearing. GOVERNMENT SALE.
