Till two latest " Catholie • contributions to the present crisis sad controversy are Cardin il Wts•- SIAN'S stout.hearted speech on his " enthronisa tioa," amid yesterday's congenial fogs, in the slight and slim Cathedral of St. George's, and Bishop Paihrovra's insidious dissent from a supposed Ad dress of the Episcopal B. nch to the QUEEN, which has not as yet, and which never will be, presented to HER MAJESTY. Bosh are courageous, most people will think audacious, effusions : the one chars:ter. istic of that senseless obstinacy which so generally follows a first false step; the other of that unscru pulous e iger supersu b: lety which so commonly leads its possessor into • quagmire, 'room which escape is only possible by scrambling out on the wrong side of the min. The Cardinal's last display of Eomish assertion has, however, this advantage over the bishop's fresh burst of" catholic" pessios ; it is consistent with the daring position be has assumed, it is faithful to the edicts of the church of which be is • dignitary, and obed'ent to the papacy of which he is the servant; whilst the bishop's is only another instance of how unhappy a temper, bow vindictive • dispoeition, how disorderly a habit, and how treacherous a heart, may be united and toui.d in the highest office the unhappy and lx treyed church of England has to bestow on her Indignant, then, as we are with Cardinal WISE MAN'S Resumption of power in this the QUEEN'S realm; desirous as we are to abate his insolence and reduce his pretensions ; still, when the same dry places these two pr elates in juxta position, as events this day do, all the respect that can be extracted from the humiliating installa tion of ultra-raocume pspery in Westminster and the s3andalour betrayal of protestantiem at Exeter, be longs to Dr. WI.EMAN all the shame to Dr. rows, So, levies the former to the coceideratiin of the law officers of the Crown if an offenos have thereby been committed, or of the ministers of the Crown if so unprecedented an act escapes the meshes of law, let us muse for a few minutes over the latest scandal of the Eishop of EXETER. In one respect at least, if not in more than one, Dr. PMILVOTTA resembles leno ; for," he is nothing if not critical." He lathe I sIIStAIL ot the clauch of England; "his hand is against every man." The gaoler of Mr. SIIoRE, the persecutor of Mr. CORIUM, the reviler end troducer of l'rimwe Seusts, hse now recorded kis diluent and proclaimed his repudiation of an addetss which ho had reason to suppose contained the opinions and expressed the desire of every other bishop of his church. Without seeking explana tion, wiihunt waiting foe communication, without deigning to address his episcopal brethren in this their presumed concord and unanimity, this disorderly prelate immodestly, indecently, and rudely ruses, es it were, into the very preseeci of his Sovereign, to make known his siogularity, to controvert their stateme cue, to depreciate their opinions, to pick holes in their arguments, to dray their conclusicns, and to deprive, if it were possible, the QUEeN of use of her royal prerogatives. And Ito preci pitate in he in his anger, so eager in his spite, so reanhee in his mitchieeonenese, that he Lae 'madly explained to flea Mount his reasons for dissenting from an address which can never be presented to the tlezee, because, though prepared tor, it reeve received the assent of, the Prelates, from whom, at any price and in any manner, he appears determined to have differed, ant, in differing, to have insulted. To know this man thoroughly, std to appreciate properly his motives, it is important in this transac tion to math its dates and to trace its progress. On the lath ult., the PRIMATE transmitted to him an address, to which his signature was requested. On the Itoth, he curtly repli: d that he could not honestly subscribe to it, but without stating any of his ob. jectious. 0. her pis laces, it would set m, also dissented from pots of this d wuruent ; but they, alter the neerl manner of English gentlemen and Christian clergymen, explained to the PRIM CTE their trit.one fur such dissent ; and he, wi/h that elerit of conciliation which distinguishes his mild career, revised the original document, an as, if possible, to secure unanimity. And, on the 22nd, a espy of the revised address was sent to Bishop Putt ee/17s. But, ere it reached hint, on the 23rd, that amiable pre late, always assuming the worst, never disposed to act charitably, had actually despatched a count/ r-missive to the original address to Sir GEORGE GREY, to be by his laid before the QUEEN. And thus he protested to HEE MAJE , TY against &document which, as an address from the Bishops of the/ church of England, has no existence. This, as a matter of form, involving a display of temp. r nod discretion, at such a crisis as the present, MIA bud enough; but worse remains behind. For it does sr happen, that two out of three passages in the draft addre se, which Dr. Puterons deemed so objec tionable es to feel compelled to airings thereon the QUEEN specially and at length, are not to be found in the addens scut illy tuir-cribcd by every prelate but himself and the Bishop of St. Dam's —and not subscribed by the latter because, it is understood, of an ex. n-sion deemed by him too Web to be applied to any Christians. So that Bishop PIIILPOTTS has placed himself in the ridiculous position of explaining to the QUEEN his dissent from expressions never used by his brother prelates. And what does this precipitation, this anxiety, this cagetneu to dissent from, to differ with, to ungene rously criticise the proceedings of the episcopal bench generally—this scorn anti indifference to the scandal that such discord and antagonism were certain to bring on the church—this sacrifice and abandonment of order, and propriety, and decenct —what does it all show ? What does it indicate ? Popish tendencies' —Tractanandevotion ? Nothing so reputable; nothing, so creditable. It shows a want of self-control, it indicates the raging of internal passion, mortified vanity, disappointed ambition, and personal spleen and spite. lo it there was not the poor excuse of good motive+, deep convictions, or weak, but honest purpose; it was a manifestation of low, coarse, vulgar irritability and vindictiveneee, such as imprisoned Mr. SIMIE and tortured GOGGAM j such u would now risk the ruin and destruction of the Church of England, rather than endure the triumph of proles egotism, which would witness the victory of Cardinal WISEMAN in prefererce tositting down quietly nudes the primacy of Archbishop Surest& The man has been wrangling, squabbling, disputi, scribbling slandering, and libelling all his lire, a nd age has not dolled his propensities, nor danger mitigated his animosities. lie must have some parson to quarrel with; at last he has fallen oat with the whole bench of bishop., and has taken to reviling at and abusing them in the very court of hie Sovereign, after having been ignominiously expelled from every court of law in the kingdom. Would a b shop who loved the church of which he is a dignitary act thus? Would • clergyman really oaring for the continuance of that church seize on such a moment as this to express his doubts? Is it the part of a loyal subject, in the presence of an assault on his Sovereign's prerogative by a foreign prince, to argue it away ? In the midst of danger and excitement, can it be the duty of an English gentle man to promote disaffection and to spread discord ? If it be not, what, in the name of truth, and honour, and loyalty, and honesty, is to bs thought of liz.Nav Pitneoers, Bishop of Exeter This much at least is now very lain, that as his notiots of propriety of duty and of integrity are wholly opposed to the habits and practice of English gentle men ; so is the church of which he holds himself to be a prelate, an institution very different from the church of England. What his church may be we will not undertake to say; for, as it ence changed with his interests, so now it appears to vary with his positions. But the church of Primate EttIINER, either in theory or in practice, either in doctrine cr In form, it is not.

Manteuffel has approved of the entrance of the Eschinheimergaesen Club into Cassel, on the withdrawal of the Prussian troops, is confirmed to us from a source which may be relied on, from which we learn also that further opposition on the part of the cabinet of Berlin will provoke an attack en Prussia from all sid«s, which should begin at once. On this account the Wuttemburg troops have been pat Cu Idenly in mov,ment, It was to conceal this hostile intention that reports were put in circulation of the withdrawal of all toreign troops from Huse. Prussia has now survived her second Jens. General Groeben has received orders from Berlin to put no hindrance in the way of the advance of the Diet's troops to Hersfeld and Cassel. The General, upon this announced to Prince Thum and Taxis that the troops on either side should regard each other friends. PARIS, FIIDAT I have made inquiries to-day with regard to the announcement of the Conslitutionnel that M. Mon, now in Paris, had been invited by a telegraphic de spatch to take the place of Minister of Finanoe in the cabinet of Madrid. I find no foundation for this statement ; bat, on the contrary, a confirmation from good sources of the news contained in the ordinary correspondence from Madrid, that M. Seijas Lozano, late Milister of Publics Works, has beenappointed Minister of Finance, and that M. Consoles takes his seat in the cabinet as Minister of Public Works. In the meantime, it is stated that it is far from impro- bable that M. Mon may be called later to the head of the finance department The Minister of Commerce has prolonged, from December 31 to the 20th of January, the term for receiving objects destined for the London exhibition. M. Cnarles Lampe has been conveyed to Lyons. The members of the High Court of Justice met on Wednesday, and elected M. Legagneur their presi dent for the judicial year 18501.

It will not do to have a protestant church in C an terbury, a tractarian church in Oxford, a Ronk& church in Devonshire, and a church oscillating be tween all throe in London. We mud chows between Dr. Somas and Dr. PHILPOTTII, between Dr. Mus- GRAVE and Dr. WILBEBSOICZ, between Dr. HAMP DEN and Dr. BLowirteiri. Toleration and charity and comprehension in a church have their limits; and in the church of England those limits have long —long been passed. Are we to go on, under one guico or other, to popery and to priestcreft? or are we to return to protestantiim and to the Reformation? This is a great and serious question. It is not, moreover, one to be answered and decided by the resolutions of public meetings, by addresses to the crown, by votes of thanks to the Prime Minister, or by declarations of the clergy—usettil as they are in their way. Ite true solution can only be by ects and deeds. An er.ormous proportion of the clergy a-e unsound in doctrine, unfaithful in teaching ' whilst nine-tenths of the laity are resolute and honest in their protestantism. It is, then, for the laity to demand security for their faith against the clergy. In bishops they can no longer repose implicit confidence ; in themselves only can they find reliance. But how obtain security— how call into life and activity their own self-reliance? There is but one way; that, however, is a sure and certsin one. It is to give the educated communicants of the church of England that power of VETO over the appointment of their ministers, which the people of every other proteetao t country in Europe enjoy. With that, everything is gained; without it, nothing , L secure. Tue election for the county of limerick is ap pointed to take place on the 10th instant. The conflict will be a strange and not uninteresiing one. Three candidates are in the field, each of tbem representing one of the powerful sections into which society at the present moment in Ireland is divided. Protectionism finds its champion in Capt. DICKSON, a gentleman of good fortune, end whom nine-tenths of the landlords support, because, as they say, he is " a straightforward man of the real old sort, with no nonsense about him :" the meaning of which ie, that the gallant nephew of the late county member is a plain spoken tory, who is ready to go with his party through thick and thin, for high pricy e, high rents, and, in short, high notions of ascendancy in general in church and state. Peelism seeks to win another seat in the per eon of Mr. WYNDHAM DOOLD, the rear relation of the Puseyite Lord I)UNSAVEN, and himself supposed to entertain opinio• s, in ecclesiastical affairs, not very dissimilar. Family int. rest, liberal tendencies, the poseission of a considerable estate, and the favour of certain conservative parish priests, constitute his main elements of success. Finally the tenant farmers, weary of the tyranny and trickery of which they have so long been the pitiless sport, have resolved upon putting forward one of their own claw as candidate for the county. The two former gentlemen belong, u we have said, to the landed gentry and to the established creed. Mr. GouLD is the son of the late Muter in Chancery, once a distinguished member of the whig party at the Irish bar. But whiggery in Ireland may be said to have practically ceased to exist. There is no room for such a section in a country so circumstanced. There is ro neutral gruur.d on which the admirers of a temporising, compromi-ing, theorising, doctrine can take their stand. The mono( the nation looks one way—towards change of et 3 , kind, social end political. The heredi tary garrison look in the opposite direction—backward to the ancient system of oligarchic rule which was shaken but not destroyed by O'CONNELL. Among the latter there are, ns there are in many order of men, the crafty and the rash, the subtle and the bull headed, the plausible and the impertinent. Some still wear the old Orange facings, assert their essen tial right by superiority of blood at.d creed to lord it over the helot populace, and exult over each new triumph of the legalised system of extermination. The fewer the suspected and detested peasantry, the caner it will be, as they suppose, to hold them down in mute submission. These are protection ists to • man, and ready to back any reac tionary propreition in foreign or domes. ic po licy. Weide them stand, or rather bend, a numerically lege, but intellectually superior section with motley livery indicative of their patchwork principles, tall of conservative professions amongst their own class, end loud in cheep sympathy for toe past misfortunes and wrongs of their country at pub lic meetings. These aro they who give what they cal an independent support to every administration which has not the courage to govern Ireland for the benefit of the Irish people, but which fancies itself adroit and astute in sacrificing the confidence of millions for the equivocal support of some few score of aristocratic pretenders to Political influence. These men were followers of Bir It. Pan and are now liege-men of Mr. GLADSTONE. They I would fain persuade the priesthood that they cberlei schemes of esthetic endowment—a blank being left for the date when the project is to be propounded. They me eloquent on the advantages 'of wholesale emigration, to be paid for out of the imperial treasury , —s proposal just as delusive ae the other, or which would be so if the Celts, either lay or clerical, were fool, enough to be bambouzled by such flame. Between the Irish Pee litre and protectionists the liveliest animosity subsists. Like sectaries who split about subordinate distinctions, their fend is fierce in proportion as their differences turn on personal jealousies, not questions of principle. Wherever the Whigs as • party appe ar to be in jeopardy, they are sure to unite ; whi on minor questions they indulge their mutual spleen by taking opposite sides la parliament. In local politics they are still more apt to quarrel, except where the popular force threa tens to overpower each, and then their readiness to combine is speedily perceived. Even with the in serable scant constituency which still prevails in the county of Limerick (not exceeding, we believe, 130 under the old regi,try), we should not be sur prised to see an aceommoda ion come to on the eve of the election, if it shall appear likely that the tenant right candidate has any chance of coming in by their division. In the eyes of the oligarchy any Amide of broadcloth is preferable to !thee. It is said, and we believe truly, that had Mr. MOLD at the outset of his canvass given anything approaching to a reasonable pledge on the land quell. too, he would have received the cheerful support of the great majority of the occupiers of the soil. The faith of the people in themselves is too infirm, their hops in their own resources too faint to make them anxious to set at defiance the combined power of their hereditary adversaries. We may gather hence the inveteracy of those prejudices which are connected with the pcssessiun of landed property when not even for electioneering purposes is the semblance of justice put on, or a desire for any st.bstantial measure of re dress affected. The landlords of Ireland have long seemed to be a doomed close. Bat their in fatuation at • moment like the present when the old constituencies are about to expire and a real county franchise is about to come into play appears like something fabulous. They are stolidly bent on waiting until the new arms of the people are firmly in their bands before they will agree to terms. Last year had they had the common prudence (to say nothing of common honesty) to con cur in a fair re-adjustment of the relation of landlord and tenant the agitation that has since arisen would have never been heard of. And now that men's minds have become exasperated, and that north and south, presbyterian and catholic, have become welded to gether in one formidable mess of social disaffection — now, at the eleventh hour, had they the grace to yidd frankly and in good faith, the anger generated by long delay might in come degree be turned aside, and their desperate position might, perhaps, be in some sort retrieved. But they prefer to dose on in their dream of feudal irresponsibility to the las' ; and they will never wake until the tide of popular fury has encompassed them and swept away every crumbling defence of oppression which they °beta nasely refuse to surrender. Of Mr. RYAN we know nothing. But assuming him to be a fair type of his class we see no reason why all who are sincere in their professed desire to see • full and fair representation of the whole people in parliament, should object to his being sent as the delegate of the tenant farmers of the Golden Vale. And as a lesson and • warning his return would pro bably be highly serviceable. Oar own guess at the issue, we confess, is that at the poll one or other of the rival landlords will give way, in order to insure for the last time the domination of oasts. SPAIN. MADRID, Dac. 1. M.

Lord Langdale will, it is reported, resign, at n 3 very dietrnt period, the Mastership of the Rolls. The short experience of only two Vice-Chancellors is said to be so unfavoura ble to that experiment, as to be likely to lead, on the re-assembling of parliament, to the introductiln of a measure for the re-appointment of a third, to keep d,wn the pressure of suits in Equity. Now that Lord Cotten's= is ill and abroad, Lord Lvadharst almost deprived of sight and unfit for business, Lord Campbell occupied in the Queen's Bench, Lord Chancellor Truro unable to greatly reduce the &freer of appeals in the Court of Chancery, and Lord Brougham threatening to pay a visit in the spring to the United State!, some further provision for the exercise of the appellate jurisdiction of the House of Lords on the meeting of parliament will, it is obvious, have to be made ; so there is a very pre valent belief (we may add a strong desire) that should the senior puisne Baron of the Exchequer be then diaposed to retire on the pension he has so well earned, a peerage would be conferred on him.

Oar correspondent writes as follows: BERLIN, Dsc. 4. The Chambers were, as you already know, ad journ( d this morning, until the 3rd of January nex , , by a royal decree, read by Manteuffel. The Chambers were crowded, but only slight manifestations of dis satisfaction took place. Berlin bas received the event with perfect imperturbability. 'The micistertal journal says that this measure has been rendered necessary to remove the want of confi dence shown by the Chambers. The mioistry hope to obtain at the tree confereue. a in Dresden a popular constitution for Germany, and an t.onourable position for Prussia. Bavaria is said to protest agai-st the free confer ences. Denmark will be required to reduce her army to our-thud. The ministry remains imperfect. Ladenberg's re tirement has not yet appeared in the Gm tte. It is reported that Manteuffel is to bo made President of the Ministry. A very friendly autograph letter has been presented to the King from the limper it of Austria. The exchange was dull this afternoon, mainly in connquenee of the adjournment of the Chambers. The government of Baden proposes to make a loan • of 6,000,000 florins. The new sketch of an address to the throne is u follows : We learn with satisfaction that your Majesty's relations with the great powers of Europe remain uninterrupted, for we appreciate fully the blessings of peace. Deeply, how ever, we regret that your Majesty'a efforts to obtain a con. sitution for the German States suitable to their wants, hove not met with success; but we give not up the hops that further efforts may ob Sin this object, as also that the dissensi .na in Hesse and in Holstein may, by the co operation of all the German states, be brought to satis factory 'laden:Rents, securing acquired rights on all sides. however, according to the declaration of your Maj sty's ministry, and from the 'obstaclee of the late un derstanding with Austria, it has brume known not only that the consti.ution (Gestaltung) of Germany is to be cos. witted to free conferences without a basis, but also the con tinuation of a one sided int, remotion in Hesse is to be per mitted, and the disarming of Holstein with the co-operation of Prussia is to be effected, we perceive with the keenest grief in these purposes a policy hardly coivistent with the honour of Prussia, and extensively dangerous to her position in Germany. We should fail in our duty and devotion to your Majesty and your illustrious house, and should think we were want ing in love to our country, if we forbore giving expreasion to these sentiments. If, on the contrary, your Majesty would firmly take the resolution to demand a constitution (esurichtung) for all Germany commensurate with Pru,sia's p sition in Germany d Europe, and which would secure the sum of thou :teats which God has placed it in your Majesty's power to obtain, and it this demand were made valid with that emphasis which right and an enthusiastic army filly prepared to support th,. cause of their King is,il fatherland can impart to it, then would your M.jeaty'e government, we are cost lent, meet with honourable success, and • basis of a future prosperity, without war, woul t be laid down for Germany, in which Prussia would talcs her prim place. But should this hope desire us, should Prussia's right be denied, should it be necessary to mak- good Prussia's just claims with the sword, then would the Prussian peop.e, and then would the Chambers in their name, for such a war be ready and willing to make any, even the severest, starlike*. For such an object all would be united, all would joyfully concur to re'reem your Majesty's pledges,—Cone-rd in loyalty; trot in God in one spirit—in the old genuine Prue sian spirit. And so may God keep your Majesty is the path in which he rag graciously kept and led Prussia for centuries. That is our trust. The following is the address proposed by Baron Vlachs : - - - - " May It please your Majesty, —The second chamber re solved, in its sittieg of Nov. 22, to reply to the gracious speech with which your Majesty opened the present session of the parliament, by a humble address. " The draught of such an address war introduced for discussion in taday's sitting of the chamber, when, by com munications made by your Slsjesty's government, we were informed of the tenor of engagements entered into between the present Prussian Minister of Foreign Affairs and the bead of the Austrian cabinet; and that your Majesty had been pleased to approve the same. "We consider that by these engagements the rights of the two noble Germanic races of Hare and Bobtails, is opposition to oppression and arbitrary power, are sur rendered In the sight of the whole armed Prussian people. Br these your Majesty's high hearted inten tions to win for the German fatherland a counts. tion worthy of its dignity and value in Barer, are neutralised for en indefinite period, if not for ever ; the honour of Prussia is violated, its political power misappre- Hated, and a future prepared, in which the highest advan tages of the nation—freedom, national rank, and even its civilisation—will be extremely endangered. t " Under the terrible impression of such announcements, we feel impelled by the hely obligations of nce and fidetity to your Majesty and your illustrious house, of pa triotic attachment to this beloved lend, of unbounded de votedner to its world wide renown, to pray your Majesty above all thiegs to put an end to the system by which the land he, been brought into its present critical position, and whou instruments are the present responsible advisers of the crown. " As representatives of the Prussian nation, we repeat in this solemn moment the respectinl assurance that your Majesty's faithful people will standby their King with goods and blood to confront all dangers which such a return from the present courses may entail. We pray the Almighty God to direct the resolutions of your Majesty to such aims as us re Mae inheritance of the genuine Prussian apirit," • rest port‘on of the house (continued U. Vineks) ter renounce this with a heavy heart. There are two men in the ministry who saved the country two years ego fess • critical ridden. But no one is always fortunate. The sem men have brought the country to the brink of ruin by their condescensions. I can only concentrate my views in the espre'sion of one wish —away with this ministry. ( ' Bravo," and hisses.) It was proposed to refer the draft of the address spin to the committee, on aczount of altered circutestutess. The urgency of th is motion was allowed. Vienna correspondence of the 2nd inst, speaks of an important addition to the °lznik.: treaty, viz. that the Prussian and Austrian armaments be reduced one-third. ENTHRONISATION OF CARDINAL WISE AN. Yesterday (u stated in put of our impression of last evening) the ceremonial prescribed by the Roman catholic church for the induction of an archbishop to hie see, was performed at the church of St. George's, South wark. The sombre character of St. George's derived addi. lionel dimness (ems one of the foggiest mornings of the ' winter lesson. Nor was artificial lustre, that gorgeous accessary to the service of the Ronan catholic church, =nth retorted to in aid of the feeble light which glim mered through the windows of St. George's. For half an hour after visitors were admitted to their seats, nothing pee -1 paratory was observable; the organ was bushed and the choir saint; bat about half-past 11 the preparation' were observable in every part of the edific', An acolyte came in this direction with a thurifer ; another carried a Crucifix to the spot where the prt:cession was to form. A ,shelve r was transferred from one altar to another by a third. At length the order for forming the procession was given by the t ding of • bell, and the attendant clergy of the new " archdiocese " formed into regular order at its summons. Cardinal Wiseman, robed in scarlet end white, and wear. leg • small 'cast cap, proceeded from the sacristy, his flowing train borne by two train bearers. After • brief pause, at the extreme end of the nave of the church, the choir commenced chaunting the Hallelujah," from Beethoven's " Mount of Olives," and 11 pr.sently the protection was observed to move up the nave in the direction of the central altar. Foremost was j borne the eras, with lighted candles on either side, Then came the Roman Catholic clergy subject to the new arch ammo's jurisdiction two by two, habited according to their respective ranks and orders. The peculiarity of the Oratorian costume was striking. At length the Cardinal himself appeared, wearing a gorgeous mitre and pillium. A canopy, fringed with silk and gold, was borne over his path by (it was stated) the " converts" exclusively. There were I about two huadred between the secular clergy and the vari ous religious orders in the procession. Lastly came Dr. Doyle, robed in the usual sacrificial vestments, preceded by Dr. Cox, the Rev. Mr. Cotter, and the Rev. Mr. Daniel, as masters of the ceremony, deacon, and suo-deacon. Having reached the screen which fronts the sanctuary, the Cardinal was led into • small compartment at the left of the prin cipal altar, called the Chapel of the Bleared Eucharist, whence, after • brief interval, the procession moved within the sanctuary, Cardinal Wiseman kneeling at the loot of the altar, and the celebrant clergyman ascending its steps — assisted by the deacon and sub-deacon. The customary form of prayer having been read, the mitre, which had been exchanged for a scerlet cap a short time before, was for mally placed upon the head of the new archtiehop, whilst the crosier, emblematic of his authority, was also placed its his hands. He was then conducted to the archiepiscopal chair, at the foot of which the whole body of the clergy made the usual obeisance—kaeing the cardinal's ring in re eognition of his spiritual authority. The solemnities of high mass were then proceeded with ; after which the Bull was publicly read, in virtue of which Cardinal Wiseman assumes the archiepiscopal jurisdiction of Westminster. The pro. meetings closed with the presentation of an address to the new " archbishop" and an exhortation, in which he im , p d upon hi. clergy the duties and obligations incidental to their important mission. The cardinal amen the pulpit, having the mitre on his head and the crosier in his hand. His train was held by the Rev. F. Searle and the 11,v. G. Wenham ' the deacons, who remained by his side in the pulpit. He addressed the audience nearly as follows: " In the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost. It is not necessary, my dearly beloved brethren, that I should detain you long in explaining the meanie g and the purpose of that tarred ceremony of which you have this day been a witness. It is one so natural, so obvious, that it may be said set to be, strictly speaking, of an ecclesiastical character. It only employed in the more solemn forms which the church always tuts; it le • customary and almost a spontaneous Nude of eller expression and solemnity to any public appointment. You are aware that in this city, that in every eounmaweelth, those who receive any put requiring the public exercise of function., are not merely appointed thereto by the word of the sovereign, or of whomsoever has the power of so appointing, but there is game publie ceremony or form gone through whereby they are said to be installed in their new office—that is to say, that the public ere thereby made acquainted that from that moment forward they enter into the actual exercise of thou duties sad the enjoy ment of those privileges of which they were before fully possessed. Fur let it not be understood, dear brethren, that when a bishop takes possession for the fleet time of his me, or of his cathedral, that he b-comes by that act invested with jurisdiction, or authority, or power, or prerogative of any sort. That must come from a superior source. That must be bestowed upon him by • competent authority. This is only a proeleinsing to the faithful, to the clergy and flock, that he has come publicly to discharge the duties of his offim. It has been my happiness, to day, solemnly, and in the pretence of God's altar, to take pomemion of that cat, of dignity, indeed, but of heavy responaibiliry, in which it hoc pleased the supreme power of the church to place me. I will therefore rather content myself with explaining what more particularly is the meaning of this function when em ployed in the catholic church. From its very commencement it h.s been usual to associate the idea of the episcopal seas, es it is called in the catholic ritual, with the exercise of 'piece psi jurisdiction and the discharge of pontitiml duties. When we descend into the very catacombs themselves, we are de. lighted, though perhaps somewhat surprised, to find, as has been the case in some of the most recent discoveries, that in front of the altar, and above the very tombs of martyrs, in one of those solemn chapels which were made for the public service of the Christians, in the time of persecution, a marble fixed throne or seat, facing the people, so that he who presided, seated there, would instruct the humbler crowcs of the persecuted followers of Christ who gathered around him, in that, the first abode of sublime Christian truth . And no sooner had the Christians emerged from those, their hiding places, and either taken possession of the temples of the heathens, or had built for themselves those Basilicas which yet remain as a monument of early Christian Zeal, than pursuing, as far as they could, the example of their predecessors, they placed the episcel sl throne at the very extremity of the church—a fixed, • stable, immoveable well built up throne round welch the imbrue sat, and before which the altar stood; so that by the stebility of that seat and the permanency of the seaioe, the everlasting unity and rameneu of the doctrines there to be taught might be fully and completely symholised ; and so those seats endues of the ancient bishops of Rome preserved their character. They still rented, in the place in which they , were occupied by the venerated pontiffs in early ages, and we see even that she piety of the faithful has sineeeculptored upon them the very homilies which they recited to their flicks. Thus, then, my brethren, nine the idea of the pontifical choir, or scat, to be asaocisted with the discharge of the great office of a bishop, that of teaching sound doctrine to his flock—and that word which at first signified only that char in which he sat. same by degrees to be synonymous with the extent of hi. jurisdiction. Hence the ash of a bishop is the corns as his " seat " in our own language, as it is in the Latin and ether foreign languages in which the throne or chair of a bishop is expressed by the tame word as the us or dieceee over which he has jurisdiction. Hence then the word intl. metes that • bishop's taking possession of his seat, see, or throne, was the same as to say that he had taken possession of the entire diocese committed to his core. And, in fact, my be three, the connexion between being seated on the chair and the h wine authority to teach, is so natural and obvious that our beloved Redeem, r himself was pleased to make um of it, acd to employ it in • manner that affords us great in struction; for at the time the - he was reproving the corrupt practices of the rulers of Israel, he was pleased to say to his followers—" Oo the chair of Moses the Scribes have sat, whatever, therefore, they shall tell you to do, that do." In other words—" By the fact of their being in possession of the seat of authority which has bun held in the synagogue from the time of Mists they have acquired • right to your obedi ence whenever they impose on you religious commande,"— thouch be was obliged to add the caution—that his works his followers were nit to imitate. Then, the tang posses sion of the chair implied the taking charge of that deposit of faith, of those truths, welch each hiehop bad re ceived from his predecessor, and which he was bound to hand down unimpaired. Hence, the foundation of a church by the constitution of a new chair or see became an object of such veneraion as to lead to the establishment of festivals to preserve its memory, for the church yet commemo rates the establishment of the two great sees of Antioch and Rome, both being founded by the same saint, the price of she apostles; and in the catholic church to this day the chairs of St. Peter at Antioch and at Rome are to be found in the calendar as days of solemn observance. We know the every church commemorated by yearly festival the original establishment of an episcopal see, and the great St. Augustine tells us that one church soleinnis-d the establish. meat of an episcopal lee in another or neighbouring church. Then, my brethren, when here we have these two combined —when, not only the chair is taken possession of this day in this church, but the first act of that new ecclesiastical juris die lon is solemnly performed which our Holy Father has been pleased to grant to his catholic children in England—it should undoubtedly be a day of rejoicing and thanksgiving —not because any one given individual has been raised to dignity or distinguished by honours which none is more conscious than himself how little be deserves, but became God has again restored here to us a chair, a seat, in which catholic doctrine such as is recog nised by the whole catholic church is taught ; and though, through the divine mercy, that chain of catholic tradition which formerly had • link added to it by each successive prelate in every see in this country, had not been altogether broken among us—though in the humbler minis tration of the pastors of God's dispersed flock unity of faith end of discipline bad been inviolably preserved—though during that interval of three hundred years the communion of esthetics in this country with their supreme bead, and with the bishops of the church, has been uninterrupted; yet surely we must tea that it is a COalalatida to us and a print , ge to be again pat on that same tooting on which the church, sof our catholic neighbours are; a moltion in which the bishop acts, not merely by a simple delegated authority, but himself holds a see in which he is directly authorised to teach. Then, what consequences flow from this? As far as 1 am concerned, I feel tnat I have this day taken upon myself a solemn engagement before the altar of God; an engagement, not which eon add strength to my previous convictions, but which may add more solemnity to them in the face of the church ; an engagement not to sacrifice or to compromise any, the smallest tittle, of the faith, the glorious faith, of the universal catholic church ; but as I have re ceived it so to head it down to him whom it may pleats Almighty God to appoint as my successor s SO as to be able to say " I have preserved the faith"—that it has not bun allowed to In weakened or perverted during the time that it had been in my keeping ; that I have not withdrawn from you anything committed to my char" anything that is useful or prottabie towards your eternal , salvation ; but endeavour, however imperfectly, still with all seal, to keep together the sheep of God's pashas, and to u t t r m ue on abo b d y e y i s ind propagate that faith, tO .l.- " ehol y xert m m es trzl i f ti t m o y th r n . y e e r ry .sto s i li b e e e t p a f b o e ld ni o a f c tb les e Son that It may is take 5,05„ to -tG though not of this fold, do wit h to . *ka, munion of His own true vatholi: ch,,,,b . e lrmon your side, dearly beloved brethren, y lu t a ) , a compact with me not to listen to evil dirctsm,„: o ,7 th r , lto accuse you, for of your docility and teathableneu i have no cease to complain.
