German Catholic dispute dominates Saxon Diet debates
The Saxon Chamber debated motions by M. Dittrich on requiring affidavits signed by former church ministers to admit converts to the German Catholic Church. While a majority supported fines for proselytism, a minority urged bans on membership without a certificate of intention to transfer. The issue, tied to wider German religious ferment, sparked clashes over policy and public order across states. A separate note reports Ulm welcomes Abbé Ronge amid cathedral use debates, while Berlin confronts Protestant reform tensions. A Burnley town fundraiser raises £221 7s 9d for a church rate replacement.
