Thiers Letter to the Pope Debated in European Papers
The Journal Oficier notes Italian papers debate a Thiers letter to the Pope, calling it a forgery. It cites Avenir Literal on a brief, vague autograph letter pledging devotion and church interests, plus possible French support for Papal temporal aims. Jules Favre warns Italy against aggressive journalism. Italy replies Civita Vecchia works were defensive, seeking to reconcile new arrangements with papal dignity. The exchange between France and Italy is described as cordial.
