    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

merous inflammatory placards appeared on the

going so far as to call on the,Dttke of 8014111 a
to put himself at the . head of the troops and
effect a coup d'etat.• The goyernment ,took
alarm, doubled the guard at the palace, and ) in,
fact, had a ship-of-war anchored in front of it.
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

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.

The Cholera la lhassio.
The• Medical News of St. Petersburg gives
some interesting particulars'relative to the. out
break of Cholera in Russia. It attributes the
outbreak to the. extraordinary heat and
drought.which prevailed this summer in-Cen
tral Russia, and Which was In striking contrast
to the frequent rains. in - Northwestern Russia
and Western Europe generally. ' Several cases
of diarrhoea and summer cholera, some of
which were fatal, occurred at Kieft' in July,
but there was no epidemic until the middle of
September. At first it was supposed that tire
cholera had reached Kieff from Persia, but it
appears this year Tiflis has been' unusually
healthy, and that there is no communication be
tween Rica' and the Persian districts where
cholera prevailed. Tlie disease appeared in
discriminately both in the Ivor and rich' quar
ters of Kieft, and carried off several victims in
the higher clmasea. In September the number
of patients wai, 'O3, of whom upwards of 40
died. How many persous were attacked iu
October is not known, but there were upwards
of :10,,cleatlis limn the epidemic. At Orel the
number of persons attacked between the 17th
of November and the Stu; of . December was, ,
according to the official reports, 92, 43 of
whom have died; and at Retchitz, in, the Gov-.
ern went of Minsk, 17 cholera cases had ended
fatally up to the. 11th of December. On the
7th a soldier died of cholera at St. Petersburg .

The ftmeral train that is to convey the re
mains of the late George Peabody from Port

car shop of the Eastern Railroad, in Salem." It
will consist of three of the finest cars of the
road and a baggage-car. The cars .Nos. 74, 75,
and 77 have been selected. In No. 77 the seats
have been .removed, and a raised dais, ten
feet in length and two feet square. erected in

nate stripes of black and white alpaca pendent
from the centre of the , monitor roof and
looped back fdtlie sides above the windows.
At each end the " Cross of St. George" and the
" Star Spangled Banner" are hung and looped
back in the same manner, covered with black
crape so that the colors are dimly seen through
it, while the air will be redolent with the
perfume of choice flowers. A handsome car
pet..in which black and green _are-appropri
ately blended, covers the floor. The splendid
locomotive that bears the natne of the honored
dead will be used to convey the train to and
from Portsmouth, N. H. the junction of the
Eastern and Porthsmouth, Saco and Portland
Railroad. From Portsmouth one of the
engines of that road will be used, appro
