It is now • ragiog at Tangier. within twenty miles of Gibraltar. Notwithstanding which, 1 hope, from the vigorous measures which are adopted by way of precaution, arid the help or Providence, we shall escape its ef fects. Perhaps of I trouble you with a few extracts from the berg and most correct information we have rtceiYtit, of the initial existence of the plague in Bartr.iry, it will not he altogether unacceptable. bilet week a iri;tit mission was sent by Generals on (Gibralt:ir) and Allis (Algesires), to Tsirgier, and with the greatest difficulty they were at length rtitiblerl to collect the fact:, from which the fol lowing are extr rcted :—' Suspicions,.. to the actual eitistence of it contagious disease, bearing the cha racter of the plague, were first awakened the ifith and I'7:h June, by the sudden death of a young girl. aril shortly after of her brother, in whose house n Moorish woman, who had recently urrivrd in the ship, which brought the pilgrims front Alex:mans, hod ;lied, on the 7th of tire same month, as report' d. of • fever. Three enure persons in the II u►►e house were shortly after attacked mod " Swellings have appeared in several instances, chiefly in the groin and exilic. This information is derived fro') parsons who iwrform the list offices to the dead. One of them who officiated in the same manner, in the years I7W) and 1800, declares the ele.rase en Ise the same** at that ;period ; this man, on the -15th June, lost his son, and it was trot till then that he made the shove declaration; stating ul the twine time, that several others had died of the gime elo.ruse. The malady has been observed to pass through its different stages to death in 48 1 r.. Nu well-authenticated case of recovery had )et been oseertaihed, though iu one or two instances the eumplaisit seemed to have taken a favourable *nen. The Consula, and other Christian residents, have shut themselves up in their houses. The Moors end J.-WI telik no wet-sentient', nor were there any observed 9n board the shipping in the Bay. The town is remarkably well supplied with provisions. Its present population is estnnated at 10,000 souls.

By the rules of thole schools, are porticos of Scripture' taught as lessons ?—Tite reading lessons are extracted Iron , what is called the Protestant version oldie Scriptures.

What books are used ?—lto books whatever, the lesson. are *elected on the Lancasterian plan. Hut what are thou lessons ?—They are taken from the Protestant version of the Scriptures. Are they taken from the Old ur New Testament, or from both ?—From both. Are the lessons which have been selected numerous, or few HNut very numerous but the whole of the ' , election uas not printed, it was not deemed necesaryi but time was a numerous collection marked out. To be used, if wanted?—Certainly. Do you know who made the selection was made by ■ Stub-Committee, of which I was one of the parties; but I most beg leave to stale, we consider them merely as reiulit: lessons; generally, wo selected such parts to which no oh. jertiun could be taken to the children's reading; as fur in. stance, if a school were opened in Turkey, I might Out ult. jerl to lessons taken from the Koran, if they did nut inter. tree with 4he religious tenets. Is the Testament or B:ble generally read, or only those extracts?—Ouly those extracts, we *hunk' object to the Bible or Testament being And.. What description of persons besides yourselves were upon the committee who made this selection ?-1 bvlicre Probs. tants of every denomination. And your object, the Committee presume, in making this at 'cabin was to avoid every thing that might bear lady on the tenets of any party. ?—Certeioly. You attended this Committee, you have said, two year, ago, at which time the Rev/James Archer, a Roman Catholic pi iest, was examined, and you stated upon that occasion that you contented with what he had gi• en in evidence as nesly aa possible; the question which was put to the Ray. 11r. Archer was, " Do you apprclieud there would he any cony in teaching the towel ordes s of Catholics at Protestant schools, where select portions of the Scriptures were n ad, and no catechism tan4lit ?" and the Rev. M . Archer% answer was, " I think the difficulty would be insupttable ;" how do you reconcile that answer, amid your former coinci dence of opinion with Mr. Archer, in your statement made to the Committee ?—I must beg la ave to make a distinction ; Mr. Archer probably understood the questiou, would we admit our children to learn ri ligious duties by re ',hug the Protestant version of the Scriptures, and therefore tae answered, that the difficult. would be insuperable; in which I perfectly coincide. I wish to make another distinction; the Committee said " fieolealart schools ;" the British (lion School is not a Protesiaot school ; It is a school fur allclensiminatiouse and the Committee is attended by prisons of every religions denomination, and therefore net exclusively Protestant; and I beg further to observe, that we should not make the same allowance to an exclusive Protestant school, as to UPC in which the Catholics linen a part of the Committee. I beg it to be underatouil, that religion has nothing la du with the school, nor lias the ICIIUtiI any thing to do with religion, as I answered before. Do you conceive, that ally peculiar tenets would be inns!. sated by simply teaching the children to read the Protestant version of the Scriptures, without any note or comment what. ever ?—I conceive the inteutiou is, to teach Protestant ,ter. trine by simply reading the Scriptures without note and coon ment ; because upon That, accurdiug to my notion, the Pro testant religion is grounded. . Suppose the Scriptures are read without any note or rem nient, in what way do you conceive that such reading iucul eatee t h e d oc t r i n e of the Protestant any more than of the Catholic, or any other sect '—Because the reader is left t fonts his own judgment. If a render were always to form his own judgment when he reads the Holy Scriptures, does it follow that that readv must necessarily become a Protestant ?—Ceitaitaly not, be cause some have become Catholics from reading inc CO., test ant version. . . But if, by reading the Scriptures without note or COM- Went, a person may become either Protestant or ur any utber sect, how dues the bare reading without twie air comment, teach Protestantism rather than Cathiil.rigin '— My answer is this; because be seems thereby to ..et aside Ilw authority of the Catholic Chun h, from whcitti he is to receive the Scriptures according to one doctrine. The Committee wish to know, whether, practically, (IA • cultic' sense iu the committee to the selectinK of pass.tgt; of the Scriptures for the children to read 7—Very few. And were those difficulties cagily arranged and siorinount ed t—Certainly, very easily. Has there beets any dissatisfaction on the part of any ea tholic, with the arrangement that Was since twined —1 lceu heard of mine. _ _ (To be continued.) BIRTH.
