FOREIGN CORRESPONDENCE. Liverpool, ‘The Queen's Visit—The Late Extraordmary Judicia) Procedings--The Arctic Expedition, $c. Liverreor, Oct. 15, 1851. Last month you had your magnificent Railway Jubilee, at Boston—an evidence of the great and enterprising spirit of the citizens of the United States. This month, we in Lancashire have had our fete—an attesting witness of devoted attach- ment to the constitution under which we live, and An appreciation of the many virtues which Victoria the First is reputed to possess. Already every trace of the (Queen’s visit, both here and in radical Manchester, bas disappeared, and men begin to speak, to chink, and to act as they usedto do before the approach of the royal cortege to the boundaries ofthis ancient County Palatine. By this you will perceive that we were quite intoxicated, as it were, with the presence of royalty among us. Unfortunately for Liverpool, the day on which the Qaeen made her bow to the population of this densely inhabited emporium of commerce, was one ef the most unfavorable character, subjecting the Yast majority of curious and anxious spectators to something resembling a hydropathic operation— causing them to watch the zonal movements in gar- ments perfectly saturated with rain, until apprehen- sions, and even symptoms, ofrheumatic fever, had set in. Yes, the ‘Lancashire witches,” those charming creatures, so often made the theme of eloquence in gootee and prose, figured as so many balrdrowned draggletails, that it would not asto- nish your correspoudent should a day er two pro duce the announcement that nine-tenths of the dies of Liverpool, and the surrounding local- ity,” had determined upon an immediate amputa- tion of that very important portion of their dress, the petticoats, and walking “slick” over to the ranks of Mrs. Dexter, the great apostle of Bloom erism inthis country. And talking of Bloomerism, we may mention that it is making some progress in Great ‘Britain. Both Manchester and L:verpool are to be visited m a week erro, by the great Mrs. Dexter, who cexterously manages to make a vhiog of the bloomer costume agitation—holds forth to large audiences, and has the audacity to face an assewbly of philosophical “sawn‘es” in the boundaries of ancient Caledonia. You are already aware that, last week, the May. ere of Liverpool and Manchester were both put Wbrough that pleasing farce, the ceremony of Knighthood. His worsnip of Liverpool appears to be greatly affected by the increased dignity of his pew position, and struts about the streets with all | the vanity of the peacock—disdaining to travel in bis private carriage, but lording it up and down in tbe State coach of the Corporation. Wel!, well! | the Queen, small though she be, can, by a simple process, upsettle men’s minds, and cause the great- est of English democrats to raise a cheer for her jong life and prosperity. How his worship of Man- | cheoter feels since he became “ Sir’? John Potter, our correspondent cannot tell. Certain it is, that | Wicarestet outstripped Liverpool in gaudy show, and, in the very midale of the hot bedot radicalism, | evinced 2 desire for the ostentatious pomps and vanitics of the olden days of aristocracy, that will astonieh the future historian. Only think of the Mayor and Common Council, in scarlet and purple | robes, lined with ermine, and the former bedecked | with golden chain and collar, and that, too, within hearing of the place where Cobden, Bright & Co. were wont to hold forth on Parliamentary and finan- ¢ial reform—and sure we are you will ask, “were these performers in their suber sense But enough ; the true patriot and the philanthro- pist turn away from such sycophantic scenes with disguet. The hypocrisy and inconsistency ef the actors show that their career resembles the antics ei the monkey tribe, and that, like the parrot, their shouts for political equality—their speeches, and | their letters for universal suffrage, &c., &c., were merely the sounds of imitation. jows to the (Queen's visit, we had a pretty fair attempt to muzzle our local press. In fact, the Judge of the County Court of Lancashire took it inte his bead that be was invested with ail sorts of power, within the boundaries of his district, and tbat, like the present ruler of the French, he could fice and confine the editors of the Liverpool papers, at pleasure, no man, oo pain of a similar puniah- ment, daring to question his authority. In order to show you the manner in which the subject is treated, | insert the following quizzical proclama- | tien, which is circulating among the young men about town :— | PROCLAMATION. V.

Venice, October 1, 1851. Arrival and Departure of the Mmperor—The Cere- monies, $e. Well, the Emperor has come and gone, and his reception, in some respects, has been the most upique and gorgeous spectacle | ever witnessed. His arrival was somewhat suddea and unex- pected. The 2b and 30th, according te pro- gramme, were to have been devoted to field manceuvres, at Somma, and his return was to have commenced to-day. But the almost incessan‘ rain of the past week, while it has sadly interfered with the bivouacs and cavalry reviews appointed for the 25th and 26th, 27th, and 28th, has so utterly de. luged the earth, that artillery, and even cavalry maneeuvres, Were quite out of the question on the destined days. Now, om the 4th instant, his Sacred Majesty must be at Ischel, in the Tyrol, to help to ce lebrate the festa of his saint and namesake, as well as his father’s, St. Francesco d’Assis2. There was no alternative, therefore, but to aban- don the field mancuvres; and so, yesterday morn- ing, posters at the street corners anounced his anticipated arrival, by special train, at about eleven o'clock, P. M. ‘The whole day was delightfal, and preparations were in busy progress for the reception. As night set in, however, the clouds gathered, and the sky was soon as dark as Erebus, and some warning drops began to fall. At ten, the sprinkling ceased; musis began to move up the Grand Canal to the Strada Fenata; anda host of grenadiers began to follow. Lights, too, began to appear at the win dows of the palaces, and hangings to be cuspended from the baleonies. Next, the lamps of the Rialto were lighted; and truly a more gorgeous, splendid fairy-like epectacle was never witnessed than tha exhibited by that ancient structure, all in a blaze with its myriad lights. A bridge of fire reemed hung across the water, and every buttress, angle “‘coin of vantage,” inequality of architecture arch, key-stone, pinnacle, balustrade, pillar, en tablature, cornice, and capital were clearly out- lined, and dietinetly defined against the back ground of the inky sky in lines of fire—red, blue, green, ery pink— wore like a creation of orieutal fancy than any possible reality. Passing this, soon appeared the railroad station in a blaze of light, and the whole canal was bridged by gondolas. The neighboring edifices were deco- rated with flags, and in the gondolas floated the coneular ensigns of all the European powers—those of England and America waving side by side io the fresh breeze, ‘‘in ominous contiguity,” as was remarked by Gorskowski, the Mulitary Governor, to Toggenburg, the Civil Governor, as they passed in their gondola. Promptly, at the appointed hour, there was a faint shout, a rush, a display of fireworks; the ls began the national anthem; the Emperor was in his gondola, and the whole mass began | slowly moving down the grand canal, a distance of | nearly three miles towards the Piasetta, dipping and Gripping of oars keeping time to the music. The Emperor was alone in an ordinary gondola, closely wrapped in a gray military overcoat, with the common forage cap on his head. He looked fatigued, dissatisfied, and disappointed. And surely, from beginning to end of this recep- | tion, although as splendid as his servants and the | wonderful peculiarities of the city could make it, there was verylittle to inspire him by the demon- strations of the people. Sxactly as at Milan, Verona, and everywhere else, only a few veni shouts, and a faint and spasmodis clapping of hands, from time to time, welcomed him. But the scene now presented, as the procession ap- proacked the magnificent Rialto, hanging from there to shore, like that bridge of fre—Al Siva:— that spans the flaming gulf between Mahomet’s heaven and hell, was strange and spleadid beyond description. Thousands of gondolas, with their fiahing steel beaks, the waving consular ensigns, the glittering costumes of the nlilitary and naval officers, and all the beauty and rank of Venice, moved slowly along upon the gliding waves, to the music of the floating bands. On either side, hang- ings of damask, velvet, and tapestry, of every hue, hung from the windows and balconies; while they, as weil as terraces and quays, to the water's edge, literally ewarmed with curious and eager specta- tors. As the pageant moved along, it was illumiaated by the burning of Bengal lignts, Roman candles, | and all the other brilliant _—— of modern py rotechnic art, which. with the illuminated windo wa. | and the blazing flambeaux and torces, rendered the scene as light as day, while heavy masses of sbade hung on the skirts of the spectacle aad hemmed itin. The Rialto presented @ singular as well as splendid aspect, beheld through the baze of the smoke of torches and powder. Tue palaces most splendidly lighted were those of the Duchess of Berri, Count of Chambord, Adwiral Nimppen, Gen Gorskowski, Countess Moricenigo, and the British Consul. The passi from the Strada Fenata to the Molo, at the Viceroy’s palace, at the Piasetta, oc- cupied more than an hour ; and just as the proces sion reached the crowded and illuminated quay, the rain, so long threatening, began to fall in serious earnest. @ multitude repaired to the vast ar- cades of the Piazza, however, to witness the illumi- nation there, and perhaps to get a glimpse of the bom and disappointed boy, who is, per force, their ruler. The narrow front square of St. Mark presented & gorgeous aspect, illuminated by twenty vast branches of gas light up and down the centre, in addition to its hundreds of ordinary and extraor tary burners. The bard played an hour—the Em- peror appeared for an instant on the balcony, greet ed by a teeble clapping of hands, and then the rain becoming quite a serious affair, slowly the multi- tude dispersed, the lights were extinguished, aud al] was still and deserted. The next morn’ 1d was sunny and brillian’, and the sky as clear as if it had never known a cloud. m frigate Marianna, the gun d all the merchant vessels in the decorated with flags and strea n- The Corvette, ti boate, batterie barbor, were g: ers; and a more imposing scene can hardly - gi tban that presented by this old famous port, which bas witnessed so many world renowned pa geante. The Plase St irk was decorated by hangings from the baleoni its palaces, and the Austrian ensigns rolled out their heavy folds of black, red, and gold in the morning breeze, from the three flag staffs of Candia, Cyprus, and Morea, as well as nile. At o'clock, an imperial salate of one hua- dred and one guns roared from the shi bat- teri nd at ten a review of the troop: place at Campo Mar at the westerm extremity of the western island of the city.

But the Austrian charlatans, | who pretend to govern whilst they only rule, thi they can treat capitalists as they do tho rank and file of their armies. One thing, however, sorely puzzles the despots, from St. Potersburg to that most despicanle of all despotisms, the priestly despot of Rome: they all have to keep up enormous armies, which must and will be yes, like the | Pratorian Guards of ancient Rome, yet there is no war between States. If the Germans or Hungarians would again only break out, Russia might pour 100,000 men into either country, and they would support themselves at the cost of tho | inbabitants, Srionion them of every thing, and leaving women and children to perish in their fields, whilst the Cossacks took possession of their property and houses; or, if France would only commence & war in favor of democracy, Russia, Austria, and Prussia might send armies to invade France, and | there the troops would maintain themselves. The | fame might be done with [taly; but the people of all these countries are so perverse, that they will not rise in rebellion; the French avoid war; the Germans will not fly to arms; and so the despots are left to provide for hundreds of thousands of men in arms without a war, which might ba made to support itself, and without the funds necessary to pics for the wants of armies kept up only to eep the people down. ‘Ihe result is obvious. The dee pote want to borrow money—to run further into debt—to keep up these armies. They ask their own subjects to furnish them with moans to oppress them further. The subjects dare not reply in word or in writing—that would be treason. But they re- main silent, and button their bree shes’ pockets. It is delightful to see the despots in this dilemma They dare not put down their troops; they cannot pay them; nor can they borrow suficient money for the purpose. They cannot call parlia ments to vote money and taxes; for parliaments are not to be trusted by hag? who rule by the sword. All that we hope for is, that the people all | over the continent will remain perfectly quiet; sub- | mit to be governed by the sword, instead of laws, for the present; and the time will come when it will be wisest, safest, best, easist for these despotic monarchs, like constitutional sovereigns, to bo sub- ject to fundamental 8, a8 Well as those over whom | they reign.

The Cuban Question England—Juadge Catron’s Char; [Fpom the London Times, Oct 14] From the Spanish intelligence contained in our impres- sion this morning, it will be seca that the first batch of Cuban rympathisers bus arrived in Spain, aud oo the | other side of the Atlantic, we observe, with great sati-fac- tion that the reviving wisdom of the American people on the subject of foreiga expeditious has been opportuacly reged by the highest expounders of the law. The charge delivered to the grand jury at Nashville, in the State of Tennesres. by Judge Catron, of the supreme Court of the Union, contains as straightforward an expo- | sition of American law, and as uncompromising a con- | demnation of the Cuban delinquent, as could have been pronounced by any authority in Europe. After reciting the provisions of the act of 1818, which declared it a high misdemeanor for any person within the territory or juris- | diction of the United States to enlist himself in any | foreign service, or te prepare the means for any military | expedition or enterprire sgainst foreign States, the Juige applied himecit without fear or favor to the recent vivia- tions of the law, and instructed the grand jury to omit no effort in bringing the trangressors to punishment. ‘Those who attempted to iinte this act of incontesta- ble piracy found it convenient to overlook the principles on which the adventurers avowedly sought a warrant for their proceedings. They proclaimed the independent from the masts of the church iteelf and its camps | privilege of American citizens to act in such matters upon Ueir own decisions, without reference to the authority by which the Union is represented in the eyes of foreign governments.

Jt was natural that such an event should be regarded by all who witressed it with no ordinary degree of emotion. Feelings of gratified cared of national pride, and of ee PAS at the public homage paid to industrial pursuits, were tempered with regret that a spectacle so grand and unique should ever have # termination. The ephemeral existence as- signed to the exhibition has all along been Salle re- cognized, yet it was impossible that so mary ap unde rtaking could ren its brief career without gathering around it many attachments, sympatties and asi tion» which at lastit was diffisult to sever. Each person who has visited the building had found therein some objects that, by appealing to his imagi- nation or his tastes, had gi grown intotu- vorites. With a large proportion it was the edifice itself which took the firmost hold upon their hearts. its vastness, its simplicity, and regularity of struc- tural details, and a certain atmosphere of myste- rious grandeur which rades it, aro features which harmonize go pe: with our character, as @ people, that Sar must have left a strong impres- sion. Ifthe whole country does not now protest against the wanton and aimless destruction of the Crystal Palace, we shall be very much surprised I: is only when weare about to lose them that we begin to find the value of objects which have insen- tibly become endeared tons. Ag with the building, so it was also with many of the works of art, the treasures of wealth, and the examples of enuity which ontained. ‘The “Amazon,” Van dor Ven’s * ° Stragza’s ‘Ishmael,’ the two uve, French bronzes, and many other contributions of the highest artistic merit, were, for tho last time, to be — at by the admiring multitude. All who had wondered over the cluf @awvres of Sevres and the Gobelins, who, in Tunie, had spent pleasant hours in examining everything, from the richly brocaded dresses to the teot bung wilh wild beasts’ skins; or who, in India, had fearted their eyes on the splendid evidences of an ancient vivilization—all had to take « final fare- well of what had interested and moved them so rgly The mechanical wonders of the place were wbout to be withdrawn from public view. ‘The card making machine, the ciroular wcolcomb, Appeld’s pump, and Whitworth’s tools, were to beseen no longer. The gratuitous distribution of envelopes and soda water was to cease, and the alarm bedsteads were to do duty before admiring groups of cham bermaids and cooks no longer. Even the thne of that king of diamonds, the Koh-i-noor, was up; and, after having attracted more curiosity and inflicted more Senypoltnens than anything of its size ever did since the world was created, the eriod had arrived when it rust cease to shine its vest before the public.

About nine o’clock visiters began to arrive. and they continued to pour in steadily almost until the closing bells bad commenced to ring. All who cawe remained to the last, and, although the nam- bers present were not so great as some had antici- pated, they rose higher than on any previous balf- crown day, and were amply sufficient to make the death-ecene of tho exhibision worthy of its unpre- cedented popularity. There were 53,061 visiters altogether, and, as might have been expected, they busicd themselves during the entire day in exasvining once more all the objects which, on jormer occasions, had chiefly attracted their inte- rest. Some few were strangers, taking, at one view, their firet and last look of a spectacle which, in grandeur, they might not hope soon to see equalled. There was also a slight sprinkling of the humbier orders present, and among them @ band of hop-pickers, with wreaths of the plaat around their hats. In the main, however, the assemblage belonged to the middle and wealthier classes, and consisted of habitués of the Exhibition, or, at least, of people who had been there several times before. Faces that had no: been seen in the interior, since the first mouta after the opening, were recognized among the crowd, and it Was evi- that every rank and grade of society was fainly represented upon an occasion interesting alike to all. An eager desire was manifes:ed, especially inthe French department, to purchase mementos of the great dixplay, and, in conse- quence, Pog by ut an open sale was in pro- grees. As the day wore on a remarkable ooncen- Aide these engagements for the sitintemanse of which the Federal government was accountable to the world, | It wes tbis assumption which the distater of self pre- | tervation render it so impossible to tolerate. and which | enlisted, co promptly, on the side of repudiating Boain, | the constitutional government of Englund. and the re fublicen cabinet of France. The maxim of international jaw. wLich provides that legitimate war can be declared only by the supreme authorities of the several States, is bared (n the obvious necessity of securing uatioual re- tponribility for national ects. If the expedition to Guba, | for instance, bad been despatched by the federal govern- | ment of the Union, the act, however morally uawarraut- | able, would have been one of legitimate war; but, in that case. the whole dcwinions and property of the Btates | would have been iy feo to repr! , While the indivi- duals engaged would have been entitled to the safeguards | of civilized warfare. But, if such enterprises as these | are io be projected as private speculations, the Btate | tacked suffers all the wrong, without the resource o! remedy As the federal government disavowed the ex: Cition, and professed to have done its best to impede t, there was no case ageinet the United States as a na- tion. nor could apy ity be recovered by the means | of regular war. In self-defence, therefore, the Spaniards | conridered those invaders as pirates, who kad been dis- owned by their own government as citizens, and, as the; were vanquished in the field, the affair was then brought | toaclese. It will rendily be seen, however, tuat the dif- fieulties woul! bave been exceedingly serious had the advantages of the contest been on the other side, and as tuch an event was at all times probable, from the relative meene of the combatants, it became the imperative obji- gation of all civilized governments to protest aga! nt £0 utterly destructive of public order. ita of conquest and the charine of plunder can be | eccured by any detachment of citizens, at their pleacure, without « corresponding liability on the part of the State, there is an end of all guarantees for internstional peace.

No such considerations existed in eases which have been ransacked for pa- rallel examples on the part of ourselves.

Time passed, aad the | cirevlation in the transept became rather unpede d. ‘The people seemed t> be taking up their position there, and the galleries, es far as the eye could reach, were occupied by spectators, who, az they gazed on the vast assemblage beneath, evidently appeared to expect that some public demonstration The organs, which had been played constantly during the early part of the day, were no ent, and even tha: wonderfal man, Herr Sommer, with his still more wonderful nstrument, rent forth ne lenger those astonishing volumes of sound which have rendered him, _ excellence, the trumpeter of the exhibition. No- thing was to be heard but that strange and myste- rious hum of voices which, rising from all large arecmblages, ie imposing, but which in the Crystal Palace, swelling upwards from more than 50,000 people, leavesanimpression upon the mind not soon | tobe forgotten.

It was a most sol and afiecting scene, such as bas rarely been witnessed, and for which an oppor- ‘ords cannot do and the grandeur thus embodied to the eye. Let the reader fancy whatit must have been to com- prebend within one glance fifty thousand people as- eembled under one roof in a fairy palace, with walls ofiron and glass, the yes and the most fragile materials happily and splendidly combined. Let him, if he cap, picture to himeelf that assemblage im the centre of that edifice filled with specimens of | iman industry and natural wealth, from every | civilized community end the remotest corners of the gicbe. Let him tax his imagin: most, and still beyond the material magnificence of tho spectacle presented to him—let him remember that the stream of life on whieh he looks down con- teins in it the intellect and the beart of the greatest metropolis and the most powerful empire in the world-—that strong feelings, such ag rarely find ut- | terance inform so sublime, are about to find expres- sion from that multitude, and that in heathen tines, even when “wh f wae still a new power upon the earth, the voice of the people was held to be the voice of Ged. Not only the days but the minutes of the great exhibition were numbered, and the first sign of ite dissolution was given b: Cster’s crystal fountain. Just betore five o’cloc struck, the feathery jet of water from ite summit suddenly ceased, and the silence of the vast assem- blage became deeper and more intense The mo- ment at last come.

Where, before, nothing was visible but a masse of biack bi ‘etching away until lost in the distance, im- mediately there appeared a great sea of up-turned, a ted faces, and to the solemn silence of ex- pectancy succeeded a volume of sound, in which the voices of the peop!

At last it camo, and a perfect storm of bell poala broke over the butlding. ‘The exeoutive soemed to have collected all their strength for a last effort in this department of their duties, and we do hope that to the other statistics of the groat undertaking now closed, may at once be added the numbor of tym- numé broken on the finaldey. Ireland, with fee characteristic love of making’as much noise as ossible with the tongue, has sent the most power- ul bells to the exhibition, but these resources, added to the bells of all nations, were deemed insufficient, and China had to come tothe rescue with her gongs, and India to strike up some fine savage notes from her tom-toms, before the signs of an intention to depart were unmistakably manifested. The con- course ofpeople, for a long time, remained massed together, as if no power could separate or fuso them; but, at last, small currents and ripples of human beings might be seen setting towards the exit doors, and these gradually in volume and ra- pidity as the shades of evening fell. One by one the gas lamps were lighted, and the building, di- vided between the empire of day and night, as- eumed an aspect curiously in harmony with its de- funct character. The crowds flowed out faster every minute, and first the western, aud then the eastern portion of the nave began to show vacani spaces. In the meantime, the ringing of the bells was occasionally euspended, and in the imtervals, hearty cheers were given for Prince Albert, for the Prince of Wales, for Mr. Paxton, for Mr. Fox, for the exhibitors, and upon various other grounds. An attempt, too, was made by some vocatists to et up a musical performance, but their ef ‘orts were instantly drowned by the revived energies of the ringers. Sowe one proposed a cheer for Kossuth; but it met with no response, except some derisive laughter. The gallerice and eastern and western naves had now been com. pletely cleared, but @ dense body still clung round the crystal fountain, many filling bottlos with water from it as @ mement, and others atruggling in vain to approach it for that purpose. The police and the seppers appeared on the scene, first in small knots, and then, when they bad moved the paople ona little, in extendedline. By gently pressing on them they at last induced them to go, but it was dark, and half-past six o'clock, before the buil was completely cleared, and the bells finally oe, tolling. The executive committee, and the chief members of their staff, met in the transept when it was all over, and many and hearty were the con- gratulations whish they excbanged on the happy termination of their brilliant labors. I: is rarely, indeed, that abody of men have aseembled at the close of any undertaking with more legitimate grouncs for feeling pleasure and satistaction. The reat exhibition bas been mainly the work of their ands, and its triumphant success is naturally re- garded by them as their highest reward. sven Ube fappers participated in the gratifisation which the event of Saturday inspired, and before the building was leit to silence and solisude they made ita dim and shadowy interior ring with three hearty cheers for the Queen.

[From the Tablet | Venzravce Brovners—The lamentable disturb- | ances and calamities arising from sad revolutions in aflairs, whereby the renowned Spanish nation, which has bighly merited of the Cathole church | andct the boly sce for divers illustrious and most glorious actions, for many years has been wreteh- edly afflicted, aud the ever to be deplored evils which have weighed down the churches, bishopries, chap- ters, monasteries, and the entire clergy and faithful laity of that mighty kingdom; and tne cruel de- vasiation whieh afterwards harrassed and perse- cuted the Catholic religion, the miuisters of the altar, and the ecclesiastics generally, and the crimes which were perpetrated inthe same kingdom agaivet the most sacred rights of the church, aad its property, and liberties, as also against the dig- nity aud authority of thie eportolic see—theee facts are before the eyes of the whole world, much more by you, venerable brothere, are they familiarly and certainly known. And you are very well aware with how much care and zeal Gregory NXVL. our predecessor, of happy memory, applied remon- nees, complaints, and entreatice, and left noth- ing untried, in ord, cor, remedy, and provide for the efilicted an trate condition of religioa in those *. Nor ere you ignorant with what apxicly we, hardly we, though unworthy, by ‘be inecrul ment of God, succeeded to the place of cur seor aforesaid, bad been placed in this sublime chair of the Prince of the Aposties, than we directed the chief caros and reflections of our paternal beart to that illustrious nation, so that we might be able to settle ecclesiastical affairs there, 28 far as possible, according to the rule of the sa- cred canons, and to heal the wounds inflicted on the church. Wherefore, after we were informed that certain chief and preferable conditions and pro- visos previouslyflaid down by us had been admitted, and were safe, meeting with the utmost good will and alacrity the demands of our most dear daugh- terin Christ, Maria Elizabeth, we sent unto her, as you are well aware, the venerable brother, John, Archbishop of Thessalonica, furnished with fittiog faculties and instructions, in order to fulfil the office of apostolic delegate at the court of her Catbolic Majesty, and atverwards, when the proper time shouid arrive, of Nuncio of ourselves and of the Holy See, and that be should sedulously and anx- iously bestow ali his diligence in managing and or- dering ecclesiastical affeirethere And you remem- ber, venerable brothers, that we deemed nothing more important, had nothing more at heart, than, above ali, to commit to fit bubope the churches of that kingdom, which bad nearly all of them, now for along time, been miserabiy widowed of legiti- | mate pastors, and that our cares thereon bestowed | by the good helo of God, and by the exertions of | our moet dear daughter in Christ herself, have had | the wished for result, to the no slight consolation of | our heart. But we now signify to you that our cares be- stowed on the settlement of other sacred and ecelo- tiastical affairs of this same kingdom, bave, chiefly from the zealous good will of our most dear daugh- | ter in Christ for the advancement of religion, not | terminated unsuccessfi For, after along and laborious negotiation, a convention has been en- tered upon between us and the Catholic (Jueen, which chogen plenipetentiaries on cither side have signed, in our name, indeed the venerable brother, the Archbishop of Thersalonica, but in the name of the (jueen, cur beloved and noble son, the Cavalier Emmanuel Bertran de Lis, minister of her Majesty. And this convention, w! baa now been ratified by the (ueen aforesaid, and by ourselves, after hearing the counsel of the congregation of our | venerable brother cardinals of the holy Keman church, placed over special! ecclesiastical affairs, wo have commanded to Ve laid before you, together with our apestolical leters, by which we have con firmed the convention itself, eo that you may be able wore clearly and folly to understand the whole. This, indeed, we bave had, above ali things, at | heart,—moet anxiously to consult for the « of our most boly religion, and the spiritual of the chure therefore, | that the Cath 1 its rights whieh | it enjoys by its divine instivution and the Of the ‘taered canons, is so singly us here fourish and be dominant in thes kingdon every ciher worship ie altogether removed a terdisted.

And assuredly we are encour- aged to hope that in consequence of the hereditary pe of the came, our most dear daughter. {2.Chrlae. and the excellent religious ition of Span ish nation, the regular order themselves will there enjoy their pristine dignity and splendor. Bat in order that no one, upon apy pretext, may be able to obs‘rust the good of reiigion, it has not only been provided that all laws, ordinances and decrees what- soever, contrary to the convention, are utterl, swept away, and abregated altogether, and it is also decreed that all other matters which pertain to ecclesiastical things and persons, whereof no mention is mado in the convention, are to be ad- ministered in entire accordance with the canonical and existing discipline of tae church. Nor again have we passed over those things which win to the temporal good of the eherch: Porwe have Bed pel witheall zeal and every exertion, to assert avd maintain the ht which the church has of acquiring and possess 5 all kinds of property, whether in buildings or (bona stabilva et frugifera), a3 almost innumerable acts of councils, and sentences, and examples ofthe holy fathers, and constitutions of our cessor do most openly declare, and most wisely teach at demonstrate. And would that in all nations, and in all lands, possessions dedicated to God, and to His holy church, had been always kept inviolate, and men had regarded them with the reverence due tothem! In that case, assuredly, we should not be compelled to weep over those many evils and lozses familiar to every one which have come upon civil so- ciety in consequence of the wholly unjust and sacrile- gious spoliation and confiscation of ecclesiastical things and properties, and which, to a grea: extent, havo fostered and paved the way for the most lamen- table and pernicious errors of socialism and com- muni Eut to proceed. You will now behold evtablished in the convention the right of the church to acquire new possess ons, and at the same time decreed that the property of all the possessions which iteither holds at this moment, or shall ac- qnire in future, shall be regurded, and shall remain altogether integral and inviolable. Hence it has also been constituted that, without the intervention of any delay, all these vroperties which are not yet sold shall immediately be restored to the chureh. But as we learn from grave and trustworthy tes- timonies that some of these properties not yetalien- ated have gone to such decay; and have been sub- jected to such disadvantageous mi ement, that it will be for the evident utility of the Church if their value be converted into public stock, non- transferable for any other purpose whatever, wo have thought fit to permit such conversien, after the properties themselves shall have been restored to the church. We have bestowed, indeed, all diligence that the bishops, chapters, semivaries, and parish priests may enjoy suitable and secure revenues, which, being perpetually attached te the church, are to be freely administered by the same. But if these re- venues cannot becompared with the ancient endow- ment of the Spanish clergy, and, in consequence of the difficulty of the times, are less than we could have wished; still, since we are well aware how bighly distinguished is the same clergy of Spain for their singular religion and piety, we have no man- ner of doubt but that they, acquiescing in the Divine will, end daily more and more resplendent everywhere for every kind of virtue, wil ply themselves with continually greater zeal in- dustry, wisely aud actively, to cultivate the vineyard of the Lord, especially since, by the ecclesiastical liberty decreed in the convention, they are freed from all those impediments which for- merly opposed the free exercise of the sacred ministry, and that they will thus more and more conciliate and firmly attaen to themselves the re- gard, love, and veneration of thé people. But eunce the full and free right of acquiring and pos- sessing has been decreed avd contirmed, access ie opened to the churches of Spain for ebtaining more emple revenues, by which provisions may the more easily and conveniently be made both for the great splendor of the divine worship, and the more decent tustentation of the clergy. And that this will be the care in happier times, we promise ourselvee | maintain divine worsbi a | firmness, strenuously to from the royal wunificence of our most dear daugh- ter in Christ, and the zeal of ber government, and from the nobie and tried spirit of religion that exist? in the Spanish natioa. From the things which we have mentioned in a brief and o er, you underetand, venerable brothers, wil " zeal we have exerted all our efforts in the restoration of the ecclesiastical affairs of Spain, and trust that the result will be, by the assistance of grace, that in that most important kingdom utary doctrine will y prevail, floarish, ivi he Catholic church and its tlere we now wii h yeu to be informed that cur most beloved son Carist, Leopold Grand Duke of Tuscany 4 Duke of Lucca, at might be «syeoted from his distinguished piety, ardentiy de~ ired that the laws existing in Tuscany might in eome way bo set in order aud adjusted in all those pcints which have reference to ecclesiastical laws. je, therefore, with earsest entreaties, besought of us that weshouldinthe meantime be pleased to meke certain arrangemente, since the same most religious prince has proposed and determined here- efter to enter on a full cozvention with this aposto- lical see, by which the ecclesiastical government. and affairs in the regions subjected to —— settled. Where ore, confiding in the rm and sure hope that the aforesaid, our mos’ be- loved son in Christ, will enter on such concordat, according to our wisbes, with the greatest possible celerity, we, meeting his wishes, some heads bavi been examined by our venerable brothers, cardina’ cf the holy Koman church, of the same congrega~ tion, placed over epecial ecclesiastical a were inthe meanwhile settled, which heads have beer ratified by us, and by the Prince himself. And by these heads or articles, anene other things, it is eerced, that the bishops shail have all liberty in fulfilling all those things which portain to the sacred ministry, and = exercise censorship over writings and works which treat of Bing i to religion; that they may fe pply ir @ copal authority to keep away ti | from any bad reading whatsoever, mischievous whether tc faith and morals; and, at the same time, it is pro v ded that they may all be able to communicate (res- ly with this chair of blowed Peter, the centre of Catholic troth and unity, and that all spiritual and ecclesiastical causes are singly and altogether to depend on the judgment of the sacred power, accord- ing to the preecript of the sacred cannons. But we received no élight joy in that our aforesaid most beloved son in Christ did not fail to promise and Fretess to ue that he wouid devote all Lis resources and diligence to protect our most holy religion, to Ps and to encourage the bonesty of public morals, and weuld be with his powerful assietance, by whieh the bishops ight be enabled freely to exercise their episcopal ‘thority. Wherefore we are confident that, with tne good help of God, the use of those concessions we bave made will redound to the advantage of the chureh, those difficulties being nereover completely removed, = to this time, obstructed the likerty of the said church. Lavtly, we izform you that wo have directed our fi to adjust the ailnirs of the Catholic religion distant region, (od catholica religionis res in Tinga regione componenias,) aad that we enter- greet bepe thet a convention may be entered upon, which, in accordaree with ——— = curs, may meot the rights, views, an rosperity of the church; (ut convention possit intrt, wea eccle- cre juriius, ratiomibus ae prosperitati respondeat;) to we would, above all, hope that such an exam- fi in hing t | ple ae this might be epeedily followed in all regions Cf thove distant parts, (ut hujusmodi exemplum comnesicrum dissiarum partium regiones imitari priperarimi,) the people whereof we seed with a rpecial afiection of charity in the d, that thus these very many and great evils might altogether be averted, with which in some re- giors of thoce parts erpecially (in nonnullis pracer- tim carumdem partium rigioniius,) the lm naculate Spoute of Christ is, to the very great sorrow of our heart, eflicted aud harassed. “And here we cannot refrain irom vehemently congratulating those vene- rable brothers, and giving to them the praises they have merited, and which are due to them, ae placed there in @ very painful position, nevertheless fail not, by their apheonal zeal and maintain the cause of the church, and fearlesrly to defendits rights, and anx- sual to watch over the salvation of their beloved ocks.
