A respectable audience assembled at

entitled, "The Kingdom of the Popes
Antagonistic to the Kingdom of Chrtet."
At a quarter before eight o'clock Rev.

In the Acta of the Apostles it was stated
that Paul dwelt two whole year. in hie
own hired house In Rome preaching the
Kingdom of tI d, and teaching those
things which concern the Lord Jesus
Christ. No man then forbade him to
preach. It le under Pius IX. II Paul
would attempt is now he would not fare
ea well, for he would tell them that the
Kingdom of Christ Is not temporal but
spiritual. Bishop Hughes once said that
there was no ruler on earth had so many

Peter w.i-o not an earthly monarch.
What Pope find claimed an earthly
kingdom? When did the usurpation
commence? Few Papists couldgivein
ulllgent answers to these questions.
The Pope has ranked for centuries
among the princes of earth. But Christ
declared, "My kingdom Is not of this
world." Peter would have shrunk, with
holy horror, from the very idea of wear.
leg an earthly crown. Neither Christ
nor Voter pretended to wear one. At

made? The unholy anion,. It la said,

But he suffered for his temerity,
or Napoleon had him arrested. and he
wee kept es a prisoner till the Bourbons
