It is further stated, that the Di rects» of these Schools are, generally speaking, Meth*. d.sts, whi introdce Bibles, translated into English by " the Bible Society," and abounding in errors; with the este. view of sedaang the youth, and entirely eradicating boa their minds the truths of the orthodox faith. Under then cirrionstances, your Lordship already p.reeives with what solicitude and attention pastors are bound to watch and carefully protect their Rock from the " snares of wolves, who came in the clothing of sheep." If the pastors sleep, the enemy wiH quickly creep is by stealth, and sow the tares; soon will the tares be seen growing among the wheat, and choak it. Every possible exertion must, therefore, be made to keep the youth away from these destructive schools; to warn parents against suffering their children, on any ac count whatever, to be led into error. But, for the pur pose of escaping the " snares" of the adversaries, no plan seems more appropriate than that of establishing schools, wherein salutary instructions may be imparted to pee pers and illiterate country persons. In the name, then, of the bowels (of the merry) of Our Lord Jesus Christ, we exhort and beseech your Lordship to guard your flock with diligence and all due discretion from those who are in the habit of thrusting themselves insidiously into the fold of Christ, in order thereby to lead the nnwary sheep astray ; and mindful of theilsrewarning of Peter the Apostle, given in these words, viz.—" There shall also be lying masters among you, who shall bring in sects of perdition," 2. Pet. ii. S. Do you labour with aH your ant ht, to keep the or t'sodoz youth from being corrupted by them—an object which will, I hope, be easily effected by the establishing of Catholic schools throughout your diocese. And. con fidently trusting, that in a matter of such vast import ance, your Lordship will, with unbounded zeal, endea vour to prevent the wheat from being choaked by the tares, I pray the all-good and omnipotent tiod to guard and oserve yon safe many years. Your Lordship's most obedient humble servant. F. CARDINAL. FONTANA. Prefect. C. M. Paton:lst, Secretary. BIBLE SCHOOLS. NEW TYPE FOUNDRY, GREAT IV LLD-STREET, LONDON. January.

The moment the latter Power declares in favour of the rising liberty of her neighbours, it is esta blished completely. We take very little interest about which Minis ter may go out, or what man may succeed, so far as it assured the public an amelioration in the Go vernment itself, and in the affairs of the country. But we should suppose Mr. VssairrAirt will be glad to find an occasion to withdraw from a task which, whether in its own nature heavy or light, he seems, poor gentleman, so incompetent to bear. The publication in The Moniteur, of Paris, last week, of which we have given a brief sketch, has shown the people of both countries how inade quately the office of Financier of Great Britain is Ailed at this moment. We are truly glad to see so much individual corn misseration and charity exercised at this inclement season, in ♦arious parts of the United Kingdom. It is consistent with, and conformable to the cha racter the country bears, in this respect, through out the world. It is the Government only which is unfeeling and inexorable in its extravagance. Under such a state of things, what great good can be done by individuals Much that is pleasing to behold, to be sure, but nothing that will be per , manent in its nature. The representations which reach us every day of the different distresses of the people of this once happy and prosperous isle, and which have un doubtedly been created by the extravagant, and, in many other respects, mal-administered Govern ment of the country, are enough to rend in twain the heart of every benevolent man who attends to them. A few, a very few well and charitably dis posed Members of our House of Commons, who re ceive intimations of these afflicting scenes in low life, do attend to them ; but what can so small a minority do. The majority of these Representa tives, of we know not whom, have too much bu- OWNS of their own, and the Minister's especial bu siness to transact, to allow them leisure, if they bad the disposition, to interfere in what appears to them' trifling cowmen*. Many of them eater into dig, Honourable House of Commons upon apendatien and It isliatural that they should settle their own private affairs, before they lend themselves to the concerns of other people. " Charity begins at home." Nay, if a few humane individuals, like Mr. Bassist exert themselves to institute an in quiry into this or that grievance, affecting the lower dosses, or any enormous abuse of office, they are ge nerally twitted or scoffed at, for having a too perspl- MMOM eye, which can discover neglect or cruelty in se Obscure department of the State, and give Minis- Sem the trouble of making returns or inquiries into dm alleged neglect or delinquencies of its officers. Ka few of these patriotic men in Parliament have new and then made motions, and even carried sem of them, for inquiries in the state of the work houses, gaols, or hulks, very little ultimate good is ever effected thereby. The Legislators, remote as they are themselves from such a wretched con dition, behold with very little concern those abo minable abuses, and either think them not worth being reformed, or, if allowed to be reformed, might lead to another kind of reform, a general re liseimition, which would more particularly concern lbw than any class of men whatever. We might ask, indeed, as a general question, who are the friends to the poor in a Senate composed of rich men only t This inquiry would not be thought of, if the Representation were differently constituted. As it is, bow few among them are likely to be acquainted with the sufferings of the wady; the misery wherein he lingers, and the lijiriee he undergoes ; or; if they were acqimieted "with their Ibises, ea- we before observed. elk they eager to rescue them, and relieve timed Why, perhaps a score, or half as many mere of the whole House, who, by the paucity of their numbers, a lmost sure to be jeered at by the very great a ld *ty against them.

When you every Sessions of Par liament observe, that while its Honourable afem- 1 hers leave, without pity, a vast number of their fellow-ereatures to groan without relief wider the weight of the most cruel oppression, they without shame earnestly and incessantly deliberate on the expedieeey of passing Corn-laws for securing the rents from their tenants, and after they have done that, in making, altering, and amending Acts, for the amenity of the property in their dogs, and the rights of monopolies( their game.
