Conflict Between Pope and Italy

—A new conflict has arisen between the Pope and the King of Italy. The Pope has directed the Italian clergy to have a Te Deum sung in all the Italian churches for the victory at Mentana. Victor Emanuel, naturally, has forbidden, within the bounds of the kingdom, the celebration of religious services, which, indirectly, at least, are aimed against the Italian Government no less than against Garibaldi. It is absurd to expect a lasting compromise between views so radically different. Sooner or later the one must conquer and the other must submit.
