The Italian disciples of anarchy and social chaos derived such lively pleasure from the erection of the Bruno statue that they are now preparing for another step in the same direction. They intend, it appears, to raise a monument to " the man OhrisD," with the view thereby of denyiDg Our Lord's Divinity. Already, according to a Genoese journal, a subscription list has been opened, and a sculptor chosen to cany out the design. The more Aggressive section of the Atheists suggests that the monument should be erected under the shadow of tit. Peter's and beneath the Pope's windows.
