THE DOGMA OF INFALLIBILITY. Protest Against the Dogma ky tue Ger? man and Hungarian Bishops. The following is the protest of the German and Hungarian bishops against the Infallibility De?ma : Jfost Holy Father-A printed document has reached us wherein is set forth, for subscrip? tion by the Fathers of the Council, a petition be'o-tu" the (Ecumenical Synod to decree the authority of the Roman Pontiff is supreme, and therefore free from error, when, in virtue of hit apostolic power, he speaks to all the faith Ad masters of faith and morals. It is certainly wonderful that the jude' s of faith should bc in Tited to put forth a declaration, signedtry their own.hands, as to their decision before even the .abject has been discussed. But, in so grave a matter, we have decided to appeal to yourself. Most Holy Father, because being appointed hy? the Lord to tend his sheep and iambs, you nave at heart the caro of thc souls redeem? ed by the blood of Christ, and commiserate with paternal affection the evils by which they are threatened. The times have gone by when Catholics were wont to call in question the rights of the Apostolic See. There to no one who denies that, as the body is in eemplete without the head, so it is impossible to hold a council representing the universal Chnrch without the successor of St. Peter, while all obey thc commands of the Holy See most readily. Besides which, the Council of Trent decreed what was to be held by the faith? ful concerning the authority of the Roman Pontiff, as also did the Council or Florence, Whose decree on this matter should be in everything the more sacredly observed be? cause it was affirmed by the consent ol thc Latin and Greek churches, and will form the basis for the restoration of tlie union, if the Lord should deign to turn His merciful ?yes towards the East, now oppressed by so many evils. Moreover, as at the present day the Christian Church has to sus? tain a new and hitherto unheard of struggle ?with those who risc np against religion as though it were a con! ri vance for the destruction ot the human race, it appears by no means ad? visable to impose upon the Catholic world, tempted on every side by so many snares, burdens heavier than those imposed by the Fathers of Trent. For the reBt, although with the universal church, Bellarrcine declared that "definitions of faith depend chieily from apos? tolic tradition and the consent of the diuretics." and although a general council is the shortest way for ascertaining the opinion of thc uni? versal church, yet at the well known council held at Jerusalem by the apostles and ciders, and down to the Council at Nlcsea, innumera? ble errors of various churches were expelled and destroyed by the decisions of the successor of St. Peter, approved by the consent of the universal church. It is indubitable that all Christ's faithful owe trne obedience to the de? crees ot the Apostolic Sec; moreover, learned and pious men teach that whatever the Sover? eign Pontiff, speaking ex cathedra, decrees concerning faith and morals, is binding, even without the consent of the churches In any way declared. Still we cannot pass over in alienee the fact that there are grave diffi? culties arising ont of the sayings and acts of the fathers of the church, and from jennine historical documents and the teaching of the church itself; and unless these are en? tirely solved, the doctrine commended to the Christian people in the above-mentioned peti? tion, as revealed by God, cannot be proposed. Bat our mind recoils from discussing these matters, and we rely upon your good wUl In asking that the necessity for such a discussion aaay not be Imposed upon us. Besides, exer? cising our episcopal functions over some of tte chief Catholic nations, we know from daily experience tho state of affairs among them. Weare convinced that thc definition demanded would furnish new arms to the enemies of reli? gion for stirring up discord in tho Catholic world, even among men of the greatest distinc? tion; and we are certain that In Europe-at least to thc governments ol our nations it would afford a cause or excuse for Invading the remaining rights of the church. We lay these things before your Holiness with the sincerity which is .?ue to the common father ol the faithtul, im? ploring that by your order thc doctrine, the sanction of which ls demanded, may not be brought before the Ocuraenical Council for discussion. Finally, we prostrate ourselves at your feet, and beg your apostolic blessing for ourselves and for those whose spiritual wel? fare is committed to our charge. We arc the most bombie, obedient and devoted serrants of your Holiness.

Th? Other Side-Memorial tn Favor of Infallibility. The London Standard of January 26 pub? lishes a translation of the ultramontane pet i JJKen in favor of Infallibility, from which we extract! Th? primacy or jurisdiction of the Roman Jfcntiff. successor of the Apostle Saint Peter, over all the church, and, consequently, the primacy In magistracy, is clearly taught by the Sacred Scrip ures. The universal ?md unwavering tradition of the church teacnes us alike, through the acts and the declarations of the Holy Fathers and by the attitude and decisions of several (Ecu? menical Councils, that the doctrinal judgments delivered by the Roman Pontiff in respect of faith and morals are not subject to revision. With the consent of thc Greeks and of the Latins there was adopted in the Second Conn- ? ICU of Lyons the profession of laith contained ID the following declaration: "Controversies arising in matters of faith ought to be defined by (or, with) the judgment of the Roman Pon? tiff." Likewise, iu the (Ecumenical Council of Florence it was thus decided: "The Roman Pon t Iff ls the true Vicar of Jesus Christ, thc head of the Universal Church, thc falber and teacher ol all Christains, on whom has been conferred, in the person of the blessed Peter, the full pow? er of tending, directing, and governing the entire chnrch." Sound reason Itself demon? strates that no one can be in communion of faith with the Catholic Church If ho be not united to its head, it being impossible to sepa? rate, even in thought, the church from Its head. Nevertheless there have been, as yet there arc, a few who, glorying in the name of Catho? lic, and abusing lt to thc detriment of those of little faith, dare to teach that sufficient is that submission to thc authority of the Roman Pontiff, by virtue of which they accept his de? crees regarding faith and morals with what they call a respectful silence, without the In? ternal assent of thc mind, and solely in a pro? visional way, till such time as the assent or dis? sent of the church shaU have pronounced de? cisively. By which perverse doctrine everybody must see how the authority of the Roman Pontiff is destroyed, unity of faith shattered, and an am J)le field left open to error, and abundant time br its insidious working. MATTERS IN GEORGIA. fhe Political Muddle ut Atlanta. Tho Georgia Legislature has gone through the farce of an election for senators, resulting Ia the choice of Blodgett, Farrow and White? ley. Tho Conservative members, we Judge from the number of votes cast, declined to vote or tako any part in this outrageous fraud opon the people. This infamy has boen con Rim mated by thc power of tho mllitarv and through the instrumentality of thc bayonet. Tho whole proceeding ls wlthoutthe shadow Of law or authority. These .men, Blodgett, Farrow and Whiteley, have boon choren by the military and not by the people. Every re? spectable citizen ot Georgia despises these venal political tricksters and unprincipled demagogue?. Now comos tho question: Will Congress admit the lcgallv elected senators, EUR and Miller, or Ute representatives of th ud and corruption, Blodgett, Farrow and Whit? ley? Growth of the Guano Trnde. The Macon Telegraph and Messenger "learns from a clerk in tue Central Railroad office, that up to this time no less than eigH million pounds of guano have been received and de? livered into the hand6 of dealers and consum? era since thc 15th day of last Nov- mber. Eight mUllon pounds more have passed over tho road to other railways, and gone into thc country." The Augusta Chronicle adds: "These sixteen million of pounds make eight thousand tons, worth an average of about eighty dollars per ton, or in the aggregate over a million and a quarter. This is a large trade, and shows to what extent planters Tn aouthwest Georgia now rely upon commercial fertilizers In the production of cotton. Large as this showing is, it docs not compare with the guano trade of this city. We have ono concern here-thc Dickson Fertilizing Com? pany-which has sold and received orders for ?tore than five thousand tons, and now orders io the extent of hundreds of tons are pouring in upon them dally. This ls a home company, and wc are rejoiced to chronicle Its admirable success We have other large dealers in guano here, some of whom have sold as much as three thousand tons. We believe we would be clearly within bounds in saying that Augusta dealers have sold at least thirty thousand tons this season, worth over two and a half million of dollars.'' All About the State. Mr. Thomas G. Hight, a well-known citizen and cotton merchant of Rome, died on Tues? day last. He had been partially paralyzed for two years. . vu Mr. Deacon Bond, of Macon, has been ap, pointed to the office of United States revenue assessor for the Macon district, in thc place of j w Scott, who has been assigned to a simi? lar positional Fort Valley. Mr J- L- Jones, mail agent on the Selma road, was struck by a passing car at Kingston on Friday, and his leg so severely mashed near the hip a's to require immediate amputation. His arm was also badly crushed. His life was despaired ot on Saturday. Two men by the name of McCoy, father and son, residing In Cherokee County, in this State, and who were particularly active in giv? ing information to United States revenue offi? cers, who burnt up and destroyed the resi? dences and other property of a number of citi? zens suspected ol' unlawful distillation, have themselves been burnt out ol houBe and home by parties unknown. Mr. William H. Appleton, senior partner ol the house of D. Appleton & Co., New York, has given to Bishop Beckwith $10,000 for the purpose of building an orphan asylum in Ma? con, Ga. Thc house ls nearly finished, and is paid for. The same gentleman has raised in New York City $500 per an. m, for five years, toward the support of thc orphans. A lady in New Orleans has agreed to take charge of thc asylum, devoting herself to the work without any charge. COMMERCIAL NETTS. Exports.
