  CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Clement XIV
At the death of Clement XIII the Church was in dire distress.
Without revoking the constitution of Clement XIII against he young Duke of Parma's inroads on the rights of the Church, he refrained from urging its execution, and graciously granted him a dispensation to marry his cousin, the Archduchess Amelia, daughter of Maria Theresa of Austria.
Clement XIII had hoped to silence their enemies by renewing the approbation of their Institute, "but the Holy See derived no consolation, the Society no help, Christianity no advantage from the Apostolic letters of Clement XIII, of blessed memory, letters which were wrung from him rather than freely given".

 St Peter's - Monument to Clement XIII   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
It shows the pope kneeling in prayer with the tiara beside him, and to the left of the sarcophagus Religion dressed in Jewish sacerdotal garments; to the right, there is a semi-reclining funerary Genius.
The Monument to Pope Clement XIII immediately appears quite innovative with respect to the previous examples in the Basilica, which are substantially based on the Bernini tombs, since it has greater spatial depth and eliminates the traditional feminine figures symbolizing the virtues, replacing them with pagan Allegories.
Clement XIII's pontificate was dominated by the issue of the Jesuits; he was under heavy pressure to suppress the order, but he died before a special consistory met.

 CLEMENT XIII
Clement XIII had to face the terrible onslaught of the Catholic powers on the Jesuits.
This order, with its fourth vow of special obedience to the Pope and its insistence on solid Christian education, was a cinder in the eye of "enlightened" despots and their ministers.
While Clement's memory is held in honor by all who admire courage and adherence to principle, it is especially revered by Catholics because Clement XIII is the pope who, against much opposition, established the beautiful feast of the Sacred Heart of Jesus.

 CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Pope Clement XIII
Clement did not see his way to refuse a request backed by the king's assurances that he had good grounds for his charges, but he begged that the accused might have a careful trial, and that the innocent might not be included in a punishment they had not deserved.
The pope's letter was written with exquisite courtesy and consideration, but Pombal pronounced it insulting to his master and returned it to the sender.
The text of many of their letters and of Clement XIII's approving replies may be seen in the "Appendices" to Père de Ravignan's "Clément XIII et Clément XIV".

 Pope Clement XIV
Clement XIV, given name Giovanni Vincenzo Antonio Ganganelli, Roman Catholic Pope from 1769 to 1774, son of a physician of St. Arcangelo, near Rimini, was born on the 31st of October 1705, entered the Franciscan order at the age of seventeen, and became a teacher of theology and philosophy.
Upon the recommendation of Ricci, general of the Jesuits, Pope Clement XIII made him a cardinal; but, owing to his disapproval of the pope's policy, he found himself out of favor and without influence.
The suppression of the Jesuits bulks so large in the pontificate of Clement that he has scarcely been given due credit for his praiseworthy attempt to reduce the burdens of taxation and to reform the financial administration, nor for his liberal encouragement of art and learning, of which the museum Pio-Clementino is a lasting monument.

Pope Clement XIII, 248th in the line of Peter, was one of the first Roman Pontiffs to warn the world of the Masonic movement as he dealt with the problems created by the spread of Rationalism.
To best protect the faithful, Clement warned in his encyclical of September 17, 1759 Cum Primum ("Ever Since") that the bishops make sure they and their priests lived according to their ecclesiastical calling and not be compromised by duties better suited to the laity, thereby weaking their own spiritual resolve and causing scandal.

The terror-stricken Pope, not knowing where to turn for help, appealed to the pious Maria Theresa; but all he obtained from her was a quotation from a message, sent in like circumstances by Urban VIII to the Emperor Ferdinand, to the effect that affairs of State and affairs of religion were two different things.

 Memorial of the Cardinal Duke of York to Pope Clement XIII, 1766
James' younger son, the Cardinal Duke of York (later King Henry IX and I), presented this memorial to the pope in early January 1766 in order to persuade him to continue the papal recognition of the Stuart kings.
All the succeeding popes, beginning with Innocent XIII down to Clement XIII, now by the grace of God reigning, have been most faithful and zealous executors of this trust, and all have treated and regarded the first-born son of James III as Prince of Wales, therefore as successor to the King of England.
Fourthly, before the pope could make an innovation of this nature, so entirely at variance with the course adopted by his predecessors, it would be necessary to have some very strong reason, which neither exists now, nor ever can exist.

 Pope Clement XIII
Clement XIII, given name Carlo della Torre Rezzonico, Roman Catholic pope from 1758 to 1769, was born in Venice, on the 7th of March 1693, filled various important posts in the Curia, became cardinal in 1737, bishop of Padua in 1743, and succeeded Benedict XIV as pope on the 6th of July 1758.
The Bourbon kings espoused their relative's quarrel, seized Avignon, Benevento and Ponte Corvo, and united in a peremptory demand for the suppression of the Jesuits (January 1769).
Driven to extremities, Clement consented to call a Consistory to consider the step, but on the very eve of the day set for its meeting he died (2nd of February 1769), not without suspicion of poison, of which, however, there appears to be no conclusive evidence.

 ~Destroy Freemasonry~ - Pope Pius XI 1922
For the first time the word "Laicism" (which means irreligious teaching) is to be found in a Pontifical document; it is the fatal and sought for result of both the Masonic doctrine and its direct action.
As to the unity of action of the Popes, it is also worthy of attention.
However, the Popes equally deplore the indifference of those Catholics who fail to see Their silent tears and fail to heed Their heart-rending appeals; they constitute a race of people indifferent and asleep, a string of Mute Hounds, afraid, of whom Pope Clement XIII, said:

In 1769 suffragan bishop of Trier, Johann Nikolaus von Hontheim, under the pen name JUSTINUS FEBRONIUS, published "on the state of the church and thelegitimate authority of the pope", which was widely circulated in Germany.
Febronius called for the establishment of a German church, similar to the Gallican church of France; a council of German bishops and archbishops was to challenge papal authority.
In 1778 Hontheim, under pressure, recanted, but the ideas he had published had found followers; in the EMS PUNCTATION of 1786, the prince-archbishops of Cologne, Trier, Mainz and Salzburg - the leading church leaders of Germany, called on the pope to restrict himself to the authority the bishops of Rome had in the early centuries.
