Htrlpped of Its veil the papacy Is
thus seen by the avowal of one of Its
chief supporters and even by the ex
press statement of thl pontiff, to bo
what It ha always been -an Internm I
dler In the policies of nations, whose
primary theory Is that "to succeed
well we muat have enemies strongly
attached to a party." How strongly
are the warning of Washington
against the baneful Influence of party
spirit and the consequent triumph of
foreign opinion, thus vindicated! How
well ha Home succeeded by reason of
the party spirit which, by leading It
enemies to forget Jtontan Intrigue,
and to quarrel and fight with one an
other, allow a dcoy duck to lead the
whole nation Into the toll of the Jea

two policies are contradictory. There
can be no such thing a a "Chrhtlan

here an essential distinction between
civil and religious things. The Chris

all, but mere hypocrite; grid so are
the Caltiolkj republicans, Doth seta of

It I an undeniable, Incontrovertible
fact, which I here advanced on the
highest authority, When the emperor,
Alexander HI, died In November,
l!i4, the pope wa one of the first to
whom formal announcement of the
event, and of the accettnlon of hi eon,
Nicholas, wn made. The bearer of
the ceremonial letter to the Vatican
Was Count Muravleff, whom the new

Invited to send bis representative to
the coronation of the new cjisr. To
the special pontifical embassy which
went to Moscow for thl purpose quite
extraordinary honor and attention
were paid by the Russian authorities.
The special representative of the pope
wa Monsignor Agfttrdl.lhefi apisfoJIc,
nuncio to Vienna, and now cardinal
prince of ma church, and In his suite
wa Monsignor Tarnassl, a young ec
clesiastic; belonging to the papal diplo
matic corp,
"When the special mission left Mos
cow lo return to Rome, Monsignor
Tarnassl detached himself from it and
turned hi step toward fct. Pet erg
burg. No secret waa made of the fact
that he had gone there on a private
diplomatic mission to the Russian
government, Itr on, the fact came
out that Monsignor Tarnassl' special
mission wa to convey a special pro
posal to the Russian government that
the czar should publicly and solemnly
call upon the nation of Kurope Ut

thereto to begin a reduction in their
costly armament and military organi

lead not only to financial ruin, but
also to serlou social disaster,
"Thn pope' proposal ws received
by the Russian minister with much
diffidence, but on the arguments by
which It w backed being exposed by
Monsignor Tarnassl, the statesmen
were won round, and the young r
himself clinched matters by taking tip
