FRANCE. PARIS, SEPTEMBER 30. • THE POWS MEE TO THE COWITITUTIONAL 1I• SHOPS OF FRANCE. The Pots has fens to MTSr.n4a a Brief, dated the isth of Auguß (the fame date as that of the Concordat and the Brief to the Legitimate Bi fhops), for the purpofe of obtaining their refigna. tion. The fubllance of the Brief to M. Sme• is, that his Holinefs had teen at length happily terminated the negotiations with the French Government, and the Catholic Religion re-eftablifhed in that country after fo many.troubles and agitationf; but that his fatisfadion was not complete; and that he Should even be extremely unhappy, fhould any of them neglect this happy opportunity of reuniting them felves to the Holy See, and not conform zealoufly with the reconciliation which his tendernefs offers to them all, in imitation of our Samoa and of I)ivine Charity. That for this reafon the Holy Father deemed it neceffary to make his difpofitioas known through the medium cf M. SPINA, and tbe means which he thought moll expedient to be taken by all thofe who held Archbifhoprics or Bifhoprics in France, 'without being instituted into them by the Apollo lical See. That for that purpofe M. Seima would inform them of the gracinus will of the Holy Father, and his ardent withes of putting an end to all the dif ; fenfions which agitate France, to reunite all hearts within his bofnm, and in all the bonds of glowing charity. That he does not entertain a itifpicion that they will deny his folicitations, or hefitate to tellify to him in writing their obedience and fub snidion to the Sovereign Pontiff; their fincere ad }teflon to all the decifions of the Holy See refpeca ring the ecclefiatlical affairs of France; and, final ly, their prompt refignation of the Archiepirco pal and Epifcopal Sees which they occupy without his authority. That he recommends to M. SPINA to negled no thing which may bring this great work to a happy termination ; and to perfilade them that his Holi refs will receive them with the more good will, and will give the more proofs of his paternal and apoflolic Tove, in proportion as they haften to yield to his requell. That to him it would be a fubjed of Much grief, if any individual of them rejeded his paternal advice, or refufed to comply with his requett ; in fine, that his Hoboes conceived the itronger hopes, as the declaration of his intentions was made at the period of the feflival which the Catholic Church celebrates in honour of the Al fumption of the Virgin Mother of Goo; that he confiders-. that circumflance as a happy prefage in favour of Religion, the glory of the Church, the profperity - of France, and the tranquillity of the whole world, having every confidence in the interceffion of that Virgin, whom France has for a long time recognized as its fpecial patronefs, &c. The moment the Bifhops refiding in France were made acquainted with the difpofinon of the brief of his Holinefs, dated the isth of Auguß, they battened to comply with it. The Bifhop of Mar feilles, who is siz years old, wrote on the zt R inil. to the Bifhop of Corinth, as follows r—o I receive with feriae& and filial febmiffion the brief which you addrefs to me on the part of our Holy Father the Pore. Full of veneration and obedience to his decrees, and always defirous of being united with him in heart and fpirit, I liefitate not to tranf mit to his Holinefs my refignation of the Bithop ric of Ivtarfeilles. It is fufficient that be deems it neceffary to the prefervation of religion in France, to induce my acquiefcence." v , From a regard to religion," lays the Bifhop of Senlis, late Grand Almoner of France, in his ktter of the fame date, 44 to preferve the unity of the Catholic Church, and to ama the paternal in vitations of his Holinefs, I voluntarily - and cheer. fully abdicate the epircopal• fee of Senlis, and de liver my free refignation of it to his Holinds." The Bishop of St. Claude bad prreioafly made the fame declaration. His letter of the tk of the fame month fays, 6 , I too much refpee the orders of his Holinefs, not to conform to them. No fa• orifice will give me pain, when it tends to the re eftablithment of religion, and the glory of its di vine AUTHOR." • 66 Being appointed a Bifhop for the good of the people," fays the Bilbop of St. Papoul, in his let ter of re fi gnation, I cede to be Co, that nothing, may oppofe their future union ; overjoyed at hav ing it in my power, at this price, to contribute to the peace of the church, and the profperity of Frenchmen." u I think myfelf happy" rays the Bifhop of Alais " in being able to concur, as much as poffi hie, by my refignation, in the views of wifdom, peace, and conciliation, which his Holinefs pro pofes to himfelf. I pray GOD to blefrhis pious in tentions, and to fpare him thofe contradi&ions which may airlift his paternal heart." The refignations of the Bilbops of St. Malo and Angers are written in the fame fpirit ; and thefe fentiments are perfeftly conformable to the decla ration made by thirty Bifhops who were members of the Conftituent Alterably on the 3d of May, 1795. " We deliver our refignations into your bands," Paid their letter to the Sovereign Pontiff, 44 in order that there may be no longer any obfta cle to fuch means as your Holinefs may take in your wildom. for roellablithing peace in the bo fom of the Galilean Church ;" and a little farther, to pledge as it were the affent of their colleagues, they add, 64 we have hitherto had the advantage of obtaining, in the explanation of our principles, their unanimous fuffrages, and it is not when se farther offer every thing in our power to remove every obftacle that we have to fear being dif4p pointed by their noble and generous difpofitions.' M. Juno •. Mailer of the Houthold to Cardinal Caprara, arrived in town yzfterday. He expels the Legate in a few days. l'he Government d, as the fubje& for the premium in p.iintin i at year, the battle of Na zareth, gaineu by General Juwor.

OCTOBER 1. The IA letters from Madrid announce that the ICING'S health is much better. We iearn from M. ERSKINE, that the Bifhops , of COSIMINGES and Escaa have given in to him a refignation of their Chairs, in anaver to the Pore's Brief. In confequence of the fame Brief the Bilhops of Nisi is and CHAUMONT have fent in the refignation of their Chairs to the Archbifhop of Coals rM. Re fignation of the - Bifhop of Ni sits addre aid to Monfignior SPINA: " Your Excellency will find here annexed the a& of my refignation of the Bifhopric of Nimes. There is no facrifice for which a French Bilhop in the communion of the Holy See, does not find an in demnification in the happinefs of contributing to the unity of the Holy Church, and to the elk blifliment of the Catholic religion in France, by the only meafure which his Holinefs thinks calcu lated to produce fo great a bleffing. " I am fully fenfible of the value and importance of the fervices 'which your Excellency has been pleated to offer to render to me in the prefent cumftances.

The fortifications razed, the old tower, the new gate, thofe of the Palais and Po pulled down, give the air more falubrity by a free circulation, and the promenade on the ramparts is now one of the molt beautiful of Italy. - The beautiful Rreet of the Po, the view of which nothing now interrupts, forms at prelim with its fuburbs a continued feries of fuperb edifices, and the earvant Place du Chateau, now that De la Reunion, exhibits by its architeeture a moft beau tiful view, and by its extent a place admirably fit ted for military evolutions, and national fetes.
