Popa,; out of then Erdlesiastical States of
which, he is the tempura! aovi no
teutporal or :civil jurisdiction, per,: or
auihorjty, properly so . culled. The only
power the Pope has in this country is his
powerover Catholics as the spiritual head .
oflhe Churah; 'lt `is :a purely

epirituttl end,' and eveir then only over

In Matters purely temporal," I, as ' a
CatlsUie, owe no obedience to' the Pope,l
becitnee he hart received from Jesus Christ
no euthority•as a temporal sovereign over
me. ' He cannot make or undertake the
rights of the sovernign or the duties of the
subject--abrogate the former 'or absolve
frinii'thelattet.
Thus far all Catholics, whether the so
called ultriLMontinee 'or the so-called
Chillicans, are ;agreed. 'y he dispute • lies'
not here- All agree that the State is'
supreme and ittidependent In its own Or
tier—that is to say in the temporal order.
But what I Maintain is, that the temporal
order is not supreme add independent, but
to 11#410.t of things subordinated
10111patilritual, eince,theocuif of Man.---the
end for whieh on
God .ole him, directs and
governs Idea by his providence—lies in the
spiritual order not in the temporal. Every '
matt who believes any religion at all,
whether Catholic or not, Catholic, does
and Must admit this'; 'for it is only saying"
that we must obey Goo rather than man,
and live for the Creator relher than the
- creature.' This premised, I think I can
state to you in a few, words the doctrine I
do really , hold.
linisrauch as the' temporal Order is sub
ordinated to the Spiritual, it follows that
the. state is under the laws of justice ; con-,
sequen!sl list prince hohls his powers as a
trust,
s not as an indefeasible tight, and
therefore forfeiti them ivhen lie abuses,
them; and'kees his right to reign. This
is the common doctrine held by all of os
Anunitane, and all Cathellit doctors teach
and always taught it. It lies at the limn
,
dation' Of all true liberty,. and is the on
ly doctrine that can ever juitity resistance
to the temporal powerit: The right,of re
sistance of power, when ithecomes tyrant"-
nical'imil Oppressive, I' :ake it for granted
is held by every . American. ,
But' here bra diffieulty. The Church,
following the Holy:Scriptures, makes civil
allegiance a roliginuit dto, and , says with
Saint Paul, Rom `xiii 1-2 "Let every
soul , subject'to the highest poWere, for
theie;ie 06 power but from . - and. There;
fore, he that resisteth the power resisteth
slid ordinance 'of God, and they that resist,
purchaiii damnation to themselves."
Here rciti 'see I am fOrbidden by the laws
of God to resist the power, and command
ed, oil peril of damnation, to obey. Here
is my conscience bound to obedience, and
my conscience as a catholic can be releas.
ed• only 'by a declaration, of my Church,,
as the divinely appointed director of con.
science, that the prince by his tyranny anti
oppression has forfeited his rights, fallen
from dignity, and ceased to reign.. .What
I claim for the Pope, as visible head of
the Church; is the' power to release my
conscience'` from this religious bond,'or to
placeme arliberty to resist the 'prince or
become a tyrant. This is all I understand
by the deposing power. '
The power itself, everyliotly. note ty rent
or a slave, asserts. The American Congress
of 47143 aaterted it.' and deposed George
the Third. The only difference is, "some

... .
.11j 'A. O. Ilnowasow, of the Catholic
Review, is ont again in a letterexplatatory
of hit views of the Temporal Power of the
Pcipe. As Mr. BnowNsow occupies a pe
culiar position in the American Catholic
Church, having largely participated in
the coptroversies growing out of ita elaiths,
and the management of his Rote* being
'officially endorsed by the, leading dignita-
Luisa of the . Church :irr this country, his
views carry With Ihem'a aigniOcanCe and 'an
impress of authority, which necessarily
challenge 'attention and consideration.—
, Wo therefore give his letter in full,}lnd
invite for it the careful, serious attentionaf
every reader, Catholle,or Protestant. 'lVe
do not aupposa there is . any considerable
body .of
,Native Aillericap Catholics wil
ling to concede the doctrine claimed by'
Mr. BuowNsoN as ono of,tbe dogmas- of
the church, and its'assertion so boldly and
unreservedly Van authority so well ()Eldora- -
od, may even startle theca: It ought to
startle ovary American citizen, be his po.
Mice! or religious crecewhat it may.. It
is true that Mr. BROWNSON attempts a
ciistinotion between the "temporal" and
"spiritual" powers of the Pope, disclaim
ing the former as a direct, positive pre
rogative of the Papal Chair f and insisting
•
that grows out of, and follows as a
necesdary sequence, the exercise of the
"spiritual" power; but that is a distinction
without any real difference. The point is' '
not whence arises this prerogative—this
right of the Pope, as "the divinely appoint
ed director of conscience," to decide for
all good . Catholics, ''whether tho Coustitu- 1
tion of this country is or is not repugnant 1
to the laws of 6,al,"—tlis right to de
elate when gond Catholics are absolved
from dude allegianc4 to civil govern
ments and when imt—but is this right
claimed as a prerogative of the Papal chair,
and is it recognized as a dogma of the
Church ? Mr.RtinwssoN says boldly and
uticquii twill!). that it is so claimed anti re.
csznizi,d
N.ow, it is against dogmas so dangerous
as this—so ulir.ig )) iii,t le to the first Princi
ples of our %publican Go;ertitui it and
National Constitutioie--so subter-ive of
- the great doctrine of popular rights upon
which, our institutions rest—that the A
'uleririin party wages war. Our Rev..ltti ion
ary Fathers, in their Declaration of hide
peadenee, niaiutanied that, to secure to
mankind certain instietiable rights, ''guy-,
cruungits ore instillited among men, lied•
vine their just power from the cooment of
the viPerned ; that whenever any form of I
govetunicut becomes destructive of these,
ends, it. is the right of the people to alter
or abolish it, rud to' institute a new goy
oritutunt:" For the maintenance of these
doctrines, the "Sires of '76" pledged
each other their lives, their fortunes, and
their sacred honer. Mr. BnowNsins, en
the otter build, claims this power, (which
the American C o ngress ascribed to "the i
penple,") for the Church, mid the Popeu.,
the head of the church. We have nu
question that "Charles Carroll, of Carroll
ton," was sincere when lie put his name to
that glinting Declaration, and so were the
numberless other Catholic patriots who in
those days nobly redeemed the pledge of
their Representatives in Congress, by bat
tling for Freedom and Popular Rights.—
Who doubts the withering rebuke this dog.

lates of the Catholic Church are now at.
tempting, too successfully, it is to be fear

Catholicism, would have received front

This issue is •uot between Protestantism
and Catholicism. It is an .fimerican is
'sue, and as such must be decided. The
patriots of the Revolution maintained that
nor Teeple owed' allegiance to no foreign
Prince, or Potentate, or. power of any
kind—that all civil power originated and
vested in themselves--that.no foreign Po
- tomato had any right to interfere between
our people and the government of their
own creation-thud "Americans, must rule
Ant rie.i,"--and so we main:aim . Mr.
Bitowtssost and
: the reprebentatives . of the
Pope in this country, deny this, and claim
fel/ the Pope the at any time to pass
upon the fealty due by good Catholics to
our ilovernment—to • decide when our
Constitution or our laws are repugnant to
the laws of God; and, to place thew "at lib
efty to resist. , 'lids wo deuy., It is a
serious issue—ono involving not the mer

will not so agree, our only remedy is an
abridgment of the nhturalizatioti laws and
a more earefu, guarding of the approaches
to official position. Further, we do de
mand, and have a right to demand, of the
American Catholic Church, a prompt re
,buke of the efforts of its immigiant mem
bership to make tli church a political in
stitution, by holding their votes subject
to the bids of conteeding parties—a prompt
disavowal of the, dogma of obedience to a
Foreign potentate, s.) boldly sought to be ,

zing no allegiaueo to our °oven meta.-
11 they do not so so agree—if they see fit
to endorse a policy so inimical to our in
stitutions, so utterly at war with the first
duties of citizenship—they must not fault
Aincricaui for seeking to correct the grow
ing and dangerous evil, by seeing to it
thatntTeial position is not bestowed upon
any man who is unwilling to subs'eribo to
the doctrine of solo, exclusive allegiance;
to our own Government.
Why, even the Despotisms of Europe—
Despotisms made up of Cathothe pritieeA
and Catholic subjects—have evt r and over
again protested against this doctrine, and
resisted it with the sword. True, long
centuries ago, when Papal Rome. in the
pride and pomp of martial prowess, ruled
with a rod of iron t lie princes of Europe,
and disposed of crowns and cordite ts at
pleasure, Emperors and Princes.did bow
the knee iii the Papal throne and there ae
eept,with menial submission, their badges
of sovereignty. But that time has passed
by. Nut a nation in Europe. Catholic or
Protestant, would now submit to a degra
dation so humiliating. And shall Repub
lican America be less sensitive to the en
croachments of this power, dreaded even
by despotisms ?
We have said that these doctrines, a
gainst which the A Inetican party is now
direetiug its efforts, would have received
nu countenance from American Catholics
iu the days of the Revolution. Indeed,
everything that we know of their views
goes to confirm this oonviction. Catholics
united with Protestants in affirming and
lighting for the great principle of popular
rights new so boldly denied by MrAbtowN
SON, and in their legislative enactments
they were as careful us Protestants iu jeal
ously guarding aguitist any encroachments
upon those rights. We have this illustra
ted in the adoption, by Catholic Maryland,
iu 1776, of a Constitutional provision for
bidding the very thing which Bishop
Hughes and his friends have been for years
so assiduously laboring to secure, to wit :
the recognition by legislative enactments,
of tho right of religious corporations to
hold iu fee simple an indefinite amount of
property. The 24th Section of the Con- .
stitutiou of Maryland, established at An- .
apolis, Aug. 14, 1776, reads as follows :
"That every gift, sale, or devise of land, to
any minister, or public teacher or preacher of
the gospel as such, or to any religious order,
or in trust for any minister or public teacher as
such, and every gift or sale of goods and chat
tels to go in succession or to take place after
the death of the seller or donor, shall be void,
except always any Halo or gift, ease, or other
devise oriand not exceeding two acres; torn
church,orahonseofworship,or huryiugground,
and to be ILSS(rOlliy ns stick " •
Bishop iluanEs, we opine, would have
had as much trouble with. the Maryland
Humanists of that time as he has now
with Senator Buootts and the St. Louis
Church, and would probably have been
as indignaritly rebuked. Can American
Catholics of the present day blame us for
doing what CHARLES CARROLL and his
compeers of the Revolution united in do
ing; and to which they consecrated them
selves amid a fiery and bloody baptism ?
Aej.te we. invite . attention to the letter
of Mr. 13nowrtsolv, word for wore, as he
has penned it. Especiaily do we invite
for it the careful attention of every Amer.
ican Catholic. It was the parting injune
don of WASHINGTON to his countrymen to
"resist with care the spirit of innovation
Upon , the principles of your government,
however, specious .the pretexts." • Could
that majestic form, re-animated by that
still more majestic soul, appear iu our
midst just tiovi,lt needs no strong effort of
fancy to picture, the indignant, withering
frown with •which so bold and dari'ng a de
nial of those principles would be mot by

Considerable prejudice has recently been
excited against the Pa. Rail Road Com-1
patty, because of alledged-efforta ; to.ereatisl
• .
u monopoly.of the carrying trade by buy.
ing off the transportation Companies on
the Public Works. A correspondent of
the Chambersburg Whig., writing from
Harrisburg, thus alludes to the mutter :
"Yee, have frequently no doubt seen it
stated of Into in the newspapers published
along the line of our public works, that the
Pennsylvania Railro - ad Company has en
tered upon a systematic plan to depreciate
the.vaiue of thu mains line, so as to deter
others from bidding :or it. One part Qf the
charges made that the Rail Road Coln_
,
pony has houitif o(/ the transporting com
panies—by giving one company $lO,OOO,
another soo,ooo—to withdraw their boats
from the Canal, and thus force all the
carrying trade upon the Railroad. This,
you will perceive, would nearly render the
main line unproductive, because very -lit.
tie profitable freighting can be dune unless
there are through lines, as . none but the
mnaller boats or section boats can be taken
river the Portage Railroad. It would also
operate very much againt the sale of the
Alain Lino, which is to take place on the
21111 inst., at Philadelphia.
When 1 first heard this charge made I
thought it untrue, but I am now convine•
ed that there is some maxim for mak im!
I ant also informed on good authority,
that the Attorney General, under die three.
thin of the Governor, has inquired of the
Railroad Company in regard to these eliar•
ges, and that the Coin patty has admitted
the t here is some moll in them, lint say
they are not as baJ as repri.enfed."—
The Attorney General has demanded an
plicit answer, and the Genipluy has
fixed en early day for giving their version
of the matter. You may rest assured
that the Governor has determined to robe
the matter to the bottom, (in which he
will be sustained by the people) and will
call to his aid all the power of the law to
sto p anv such a buses by tills overgrown
co rperatinn."

Now, whatever - ditlitreitee of opinion
