Mr, Connelly was then appointed rector -of the church of Natchez in the Stute of Mississippi, where he proc: to reside until the month of Ov- tober, 1! At that time, however, the rector's rents, hey were wife became a convert to the Roman Catholic faith, and was received into the bosom of that church. Mr. Connelly himself, was desirous of con- sidering and ‘detormisiag the points in controversy ‘between the two churches more fully in Europe, and with that view he undertook a journey to Rome with his wife. They arrived early in 1836, aad on the following palm Sunday, ke too, was received in- to the Roman Catholic Church. The converts soon afterwards returned to the United States, and settled inthe State of Louisiana, where in 1840they formed the design of living apart with a view to Mr. Connelly’s obtaining orders in the Church ot Rome. After another journey to Rome, underta- ken by the husband alone, and another return to Teulelons, in 1843, they both proceeded to fulfil these intentions, andagain reached Europe in the month of December of that year A petition of Mr. Connelly was addressed to Pope Gregory XVI.. and referred by him to the Cardinal Vicar Gens and Judge Ordinary of Rome, who yunced in effect (as is Pores SE by Mrs. Connelly) a sentence of separation accordingly. In April, 1844, Mrs. Connelly became a nun in the convent of the Sacred ‘Heart on the Monte Pincio, and Mr. Connelly re- @eived the first clerical tonsure and assumed the dress of a Romish ecclesiastic. In the month of Sune, 1845, Mrs. Connelly bound herself, with the concurrence of her husband, by the fullowing vow, which we can give in no words but her own :— Almighty and Eternal God, I, Cornelia, the lawful wif) of Pierce Connelly, trusting in Thine infinite good: and mercy, and animated with the desire of serving T! more tly, with the consent of my hu-band, who intends shortly to take holy orders, do make Thy Divine Majesty a vow of tual chastity at thy hands of the Reverend Father Jean Louls Rozaren, of the Society of Jesus. delegated for this purpose by his Hminence the Cardinal Viear of: his Holiness for the city 2, Sup. licating Thy Divine goodness, by the precious blood of jesus Christ, to be pleased to accept this offering of Thy unworthy creature as a eweet sinciling savour, and that as Thou hast given me the desire and power to make this offering to.

Probably, however, tie Koman Or- dinary regarded a marriage of American Episco- palians in the city of Philadelphia as a were civil contract; for Rome, which imposes a religious sanction on her own acts of authority, denies that sanction even to the churches of fureigo nations. From the period last mentioned unt iieg, 5 Father Connelly and. this ieverend Mother (as they were now called) continued to reside in the re- —— houses in Rome to which they respectively om But. at that. period, Lord Shrewsbury t Mr. Connelly to England as his private in, and the lady alsocawe to England, where ‘ame, and we believe now is, the Superioress of a community of religious women under the tit of the “Congregation of the Holy Child Jesus,” at Hastings, in Sussex, having brought with her from Rome rules for the government of this community. however, and at some time in the Connelly quitted Lord Shrewsbury, Alton Towers, the Romish Church. He appears to have renounced the opinions, tho costume, and the obligations which thatchurch hadimposed upon him; and after a. personal attempt to reclaim his wife from her convent, this gentleman proceeded to institute a suit forthe restitution of conjugal rights in the Court of Arches. Mrs Connelly putin ao allegation in this suit, in which her claims to sepa- ration were strongly stated, on tae groands of con- science and humanity; but wauy important matters in the case, especially the questions relating to do- micile, were not raised. The Dean of the Arches rejected this allegation altogether, a» an insuilicient defence. From-this decision un appeal was had to the Privy Council, which decided, aftertwo days’ argument, that Mrs. Connelly’ allegation should be reformed, so as to plead the law of Pennsylvania, where the marriage took place, and the domicile of the parties at Rome, where it as interrupted! so that if these points are raised |) cause may come on for further discussion in the Court cf Arches in a new shape. ad Without entering into the lega! technicalities, or, still less, the religious considerations mixed up with every part of this case, there is one fact which must strike every reader. ‘These persons are in no degree connected with this country, eitaer by birth, mar- riage, domicile, or profession. Their marriage, cel- ebrated in Philadelphia as between American citi- zens, has all the character and incidents of a mar- riage in that State, whatever they may be, for no- thing is more established than the principle that the lex loci contracts governs marriage in all subsequent time and in all courts Christian. So, again, their separation may or may not have been a valid decree of separation by the competent authority in Kome, and may, as such, be recognized by the courts of their native country. It is not as persons united by an English Marriage, or permanently amenable to English law, that this question can be discussed; for, ‘although any foreigners or aliens may undoubt- edly claim the assistance of our courts to protect or restore their personal rights, it is impossible to hold that such rights are to be placed higher in this country than they would be by the laws that called them into being. The validity of sush a marti at this time would seom, therefore, to fail within the rovisions of the law of Pennsylvania, whatever hey may be, just as the validity of 4 Seotch mar- riage or divorce, if raised in this country, as it often has been, must termined according to the law of Scotland. This ars to have been the view adoped by the Judicial Committee of the Privy Council, since that court ordered the law of Penn- sylvania to be brought under consideration; and a new turn was thus ; hg to the question, somewhat more fuvorable to Mrs. Connelly’s position than it could have been, had the marriage in question been to all intents and purposes an English marriage. it is important to remark that, whatever may be the effect of such an interposition of the See of Rome in marriages constracted in those States of America where the law recognises and facilitates di- vorce for various causos, nothing bas been alleged in this cause to countenance for an instant the mon- strous doctrine that the act of any fereign court, spiritual or could annul or suspend the —— tions of an English marriage. Least of all could it ever be admitted by any judicature that a lawfal separation of married persons of this country could be pronounced by the See of ome on mere reli- gious grounds, giving the sanction of the chure's to & personal arrangement, and setting up a pretended cage of conscience against the privr aud not less sa- ered obligation of marringe itself. On that puint we entertain no apprehensions, and if the ow should be found not to reach the prosent case, 1 is because the parties are really amenable to forei, laws more favorable to divorce than our own. But when the ( urdinal Ordinary of Rome assumed this extraordinary power of abrogating Mrs Connelly’s marriage vow, be probably did not consider whether the marrisge in question was American or British; and this case demonstrates that the spiritual or of Rome 1 Dagens text of liberty of co: be intruded into matters of an essentially tem character, affecting marriage, legitim: crinimal justice. is intrusion, on such grounds, isinthe math | dangerous, and such excess of power to deprive the Romish judica- ture pot only of the obedience due to Papal autho- rity, but even of the respect paid to all foreign courts of law by the comity of nations.

Two centuries ago there were not quite three millions of this race on the face of the earth. ‘There are a million m sons of Magyar descent, speeking the M: guage, at the present moment, in Europe, than there were in Europe and America of this conquering and colonizing people in the time of Cromwell. How vain, then, for men to talk of the political necessity for absorbing small races! Sixty years ago the Anglo-Saxon race did not exceed 17,000, Europe and America. At that time it was not nu- merically stronger than the Poles. Thirty years ago it counted only thirty-four millions ; being al- together only three millions and a fraction more than the population of France at that time,—and considerably leas than the ‘Teutonic population of Central Europe. In 185] it is ahead of every civi- lized race in the world.

The day when it might possibly have been crushed, absorbed, or trampled out, like Hungary and Poland, by stronger hordes, is gone by forever. That it was le at one time for this people to be subdued by violence, or to fall a prey to the slower agonies of decline, there can be little doubt.

Their language was spoken in every In the at Orient the'r empire was fixed and their influence para- mount. England was then hardly known abroad. Her difficult idiom — on foreign ears, and her stormy coasts repelled the curiosity of more cul- tivated travellers. Had the thought of a day ar- riving when any single European language would be spoken by millions of persons, scattered over the great continents of the earth from New Zea- land to the Hebrides, and from the Cape of Storms to the Arctic Ocean, occured to any speculative mind—Dutch, not English, would probably have assigned the marvellous mission. Yet, Holland has been the tongue to which he would have fallen nearly as much as the Saxoa has risen in the seale of nations. Her idiom is now acquired by few. Her merchants conduct their correspondence and transact thoir business in French or in English. Even her writers have many of them clothed their enius in a foreign garb. On the other hand, our fiteratare and language have passed entirely out of this phase of danger.

In 1801, the popula. t Britain was 10,942,646; in Is00, that of the United States was 5,319,762—or not mite balf. In 1860, the a of the United States is two millions and a third more than thatof Great Britain in 1861; at thie moment it probably exceeds it by three millions. The rate of decennial increase in this country is lese than 15 per cent-- while in America it is about 35 per cent. In the eat Continental States the rate is coasiderably ower than in England. According to the progress of the last fifty years in Franco ond in America, the United States will have the larger population in In70—in 1K0, they wil exceed those we England, France, Spain, Portugal, Denmark, Sweden, and Switzerland combined. l’rudent statesmen should bear these facts in mind. Many persons now alive may ece the time when America will be of more im- portence to us, socially, commercially, and politi- cally than all Lurope e together. Old diplomatic traditions will go fur little in the face of a trans- atiantic power numbering 100,000,000 of free and energetic men of our own race and blood. ¢ American retarns exhibit to us another ex- tremely interesting feature—the process hy which nature herself is gradually working out the vexed Pmpiee of slavery.

He did not agree with those who said, “Jet this country do right, no matter what others may do.” He said it was the heed of this country to protect the rights of its own subjects. We had done what fair and just in offering to America and other States protection to their writers, if they would give the same to ours, (hear, hear); anda great wrong was done to our authors by any con- struction of the law which fostered and sanctioned the very States that most partinaclously adhered to sallay which despoiled them. ‘ere he ¢ 7, .
