Rome, March 24.-The Czar's reply to the congratulations of Pope Leo XIII on the occasion of the twenty-fifth anniversary of the former's accession to the throne of Russia has been received. The text of the Czar's dispatch has not been published, but some of the journals say it is couched in cold and vague terms, and that the Pope is very much disappointed at its lack of warmth and reciprocity of tone, but at the Vatican it is said His Holiness is not at all disappointed, inasmuch as he had small hopes of receiving from the Czar anything but a most formal acknowledgment of his congratulations. The condition of the Catholic Church in Russia has caused constant solicitude and anxiety on the part of the Pope.
