The weight to be attached to the Civiltà on all questions connected with the Council may be gathered from the Brief of Pius ix. of Feb. 12, 1866, printed in the Civiltà, Serie vi. vol. vi. pp. 7-15. The Pope declares that this journal, expressly intrusted with the defence of religion and with teaching and disseminating the authority and claims of the Roman See, is to be written and edited by a special staff to be named by the General of the Jesuits, who are to have a special house and revenues of their own. The previous censorship, as is known in Rome, is exercised with particular care, so that nothing appears without the approbation of the Curia.

Freppel too, as Bishop-designate of Anjou, has now declared himself for the infallibilists. 8 This design does not seem to have been persevered in. 9 10 “Præsidentia auctoritativa dicitur … insuper cum auctoritate coactivâ compescendi etiam per censuras ecclesiasticas, et alia juris media contradictores et rebelles et contumaces, prout ex constitutione xi. Martini v., etc.” 11 “Juramentum contra utilitatem ecclesiasticam præstitum non tenet.” – Lib. ii. tit. 24, c. 27; Sext. Lib. i. t. 2, c. 1. 12 Cf. “Janus,” p. 230. 13 [The third Lateran Council. – Tr.] 14 The Scotch pronounce Latin much as the Germans do. 15 [Even this must be taken with reserve. – Cf. 16 [Most of the rights originally inherent in the episcopate are now reserved to the Pope, who only allows Bishops to exercise them during good behaviour, by virtue of “faculties” renewed every five years. Cf. “Janus,” p. 422, note. – Tr.] 17 [This must be taken with some reserve, as will be seen further on. – Tr.] 18 “Obligatam hærentemque sanctiori Pontifici velut in pectore Societatem.” – Bolland, 19 [The German College is conducted by the Jesuits. – Tr.] 20 [Archbishop MacHale does not seem to have justified this anticipation. – Tr.] 21 Excommunications 22 When the news arrived from Paris of the abolition of the Pragmatic Sanction, 23 [This formula, often mistakenly supposed to occur in the Papal Coronation service, refers to the traditional length of St. Peter's pontificate – twenty-five years. No Pope has yet reigned to the end of his twenty-fifth year, and only one has entered on the beginning of it. Pius ix. completes his twenty-fourth year on June 16, 1870. – Tr.] 24 [This point is forcibly dwelt on by Count Daru in his memorandum, which the Pope refused to lay before the Council. – Tr.] 25 “Animas eorum qui in solo peccato originali, vel mortali actuali decedunt, in infernum descendere, pœnis tamen disparibus puniendas.” 26 “Imprimis itaque fide Catholicâ, tenendum est illorum animas,” etc. The author seems really to believe that the Rationalistic tendencies of the age can be cured with an emetic. 27 [Cardinal Reisach, who was formerly Archbishop of Munich, used to say he had almost forgotten how to speak German. – Tr.] 28 “Supremam ideoque ab errore immunem esse Romani Pontificis auctoritatem, quum in rebus fidei et moram ea statuit ac præcipit quæ ab omnibus Christi fidelibus credenda et tenenda, quæve rejicienda et damnanda sunt.” 29 “Per l'infallibilità, essendo l'Abbate Mastai, l'ho sempre creduto, adesso, essendo Papa Mastai, la sento.” 30 [This reads almost like a prophecy, when we remember how afterwards, and on slighter provocation than is here supposed, hundreds of the Infallibilist Bishops danced like maniacs round the pulpit when Strossmayer and Schwarzenberg were speaking, yelling and shaking their fists at them. – Cf. 31 [Archbishop Darboy's interposition stopped the conspiracy being carried out at the first General Congregation, and four American Bishops disconcerted a second similar plot
