THE POPE!S NIJNCIO IN SPAIN. NI A NIF gsTo OF THE SPANISt REGENCY' AGAINST THE ARCH.' BISHOI'OF NICEA, THE 'POPIVO NUNCIO IN SPAIN/ TO THE PRELATES AND COArrERS OP SPAIN, Tur, DECENCY. AP 1114 KINUDOM. Upon taking into my hands the Government of t 6 kingdom, I find. myself underthe painful Ile cesity of interfering with a subject equally deli cate from its publicity and transeeadent nature, as fronithe character of the persons who were con cerned in ir. The Chapter of the Cathedral of Cadiz, with their Capitttlar Vicar, and the QttU nary and Military Vicars of this town, pretending the defence of religion, and a fear ofaeting against their own consciences, opposed themselves to the publication in the parish churches,' of the Decree and Manifesto of the Corte concerning the esti).- blishnent of the Tribunals for the proLetion of the Faith, instead of the lately abolished Inquisi-: tion. I therefore aclopted the most energetic tutta 7 suiss, in order that, whilst those Decrees were d u ly eniicted, , Spain might be preserved from the cow. vidsions Which threatened her at that moment.— To those 'measures, - equully tending- to main tain the dignity of the Holy ChUrch and the tran'- quility of-'the 86ttde,, we owe the extinction of a flame which might have cons , umed the kingdo:n. But the circtunstance of having desired from tin. Chapter - of this .Church, and front some others with whom I bad bei!ti in corresponde . tice, ail au thentic copy of their Resolutions lintLothei doeu nients, that we might take such steps as the :pis : . tine of the Government,. ,and the offended sove reignty of the Nation Called for, led to the, dis- Covery: of, a fact, which gratty increased my stir- . rOw - , hoth on accou.,t of the clio:teter of its an thor,' and the danger to which it had'exposed the country. • Among the documents that were laid b e fo r e us , t h ae appeared a let tor from the most Rev. Peter Oravhia, A."111)141101?of Nicea, 'and Nuncio - of his ifoliaess fOr Spain, to the Dea n an d Ch a p ter of the Cathedral of Malaga (I}, dated the. stit of M ar i+ l as t - i in' which he exhorted them tip delay, an& ever' to oppose,, the, execution o f hi s jesty's tiecreefi: epneerning the Inquisition. 'The Most Rev. NunciOappearei , „ iiy Iris sign ii to t rct act in that ihstiin&e only tit his A r ehiepiseopal character, notwithstanding that he was protesting against the injury which 4e . supposed hkivp bee 4 done to, tire noty see, 10 the almlition of Elic Inquisition, and the Decree Or promulgating it in the parish Churches. fl e also says, in his letter, that the Wallops now resident.. in this town, had it in contemplation to answer to Go vernment; that, they c , nild not pnt these decrees into practice until they ban hckutl the, opinion of their. Chapters---at the same time throwing a slur tits fit those Bishops by the intimation that this was, intende„d as a mere pretext ; after which he adds-"thatexplicitly they thus gained time to make all the proper retnunatrances upon the itat. Ile. farther states, -that the, Chapter of this Church sedexacante, had declined to execute the Deerte ; upon Which he exhorts the Chapter of the Church of Malaga to adopt the opinion of all .the Prelates, (thus reckoning upon thcirdisubedience), and: endeavours to persuade their, that by acting according to his advice;, they, ould do an import ant service to Religion,,toihe Church, and to our most Holy Father, whose authority and rights lie conceived to be vulnerated, without thereby favour ing the Episcopal power It is also added, that he had thonght . it his duty-to remousi rate (2) in the name of his Holiness, opposing the execution of such Oe- Oreesontil the Pope had given his consentor uppro -bation ; or, in defect of the .Pope, the same were done by a National,Council and he finally closed his letter with a promisc.; of communicating to them, under the greAtest secrecy, every circum stance, as it should take place, which might eon, tribute to regulate their conduct for tile fitture. Copies of letters have been also forwarded to me by , the Rev. Bishop of Jaeu (3), and the Chapter, of Granada„sede vuevitv(4), similar to the . above- Mentioned, and- which, with the same object, and under the same, . date, were directed to; them ' by the Most Rev. Nuncio. From these it ap pears, that the said Nuncio, trampling on the first principles of International Law, overlooking the boundaries of his public mission, and abusing the Veneration in which this pious people hold the Legates of the Apostolic See, has endeavoured to promote. anti actually ?;as promoted, under the cloak of religion, the disobedience of some very respectable Prelates .And Ecclesiastical Bo dies to the decrees' and orders' of the Sove-:. reign Power. If the. Most Reverend Nuncio had only intended to act as a Legate of the Holy Father, and to avoid 'any expostulation to which he might conceive himself exposed for his silenee on the present subject, nothing obstructed his way to me through the medium of the Secretary of , State,. I might overlook his avoiding this, regular mid official means of communication, %then he re monstrated as he thought proper upon the mat ter, And should have, attributed, the informa lity of the conduct which he chose to adopt, to inadvertency, or 'rather to an excess of..confi dence. 'I should have: only paid attention to his arguments, and, with the advice of the- Supreme Congress, taken suchresolutions as the defence of the Holy Church .and the temporal good of the State, demanded with one voice from me. The justice of the national cause makes me feel quite confident dint, had this been the case, should have satisfactorily answered the Note 'of the Most Reverend Nuncio, and that I should have been found equal to meet those vagiie nod ecuumon-place arguments which the wisqoui of the most august Congress has already defeated. His uneasiness won'tti have been calmed, when he should see that the abolition of the Inquisition can, by no means, either endanger religion, or injure the rights of the Roman Pontiff ; and that all the fears which he entertains, on that account, for the primacy' . of the. Holy Father, and the su , Fettle authority Which be holds in the Church, are most vain and ungrounded. Ells qualms would have. been alloyed, concerning the impropriety which he seems to find in the circumstance of de claring to the people, during the celebration of MaSs, thAt a tribunal which teas established, and Eder three centuries protected by the Popes, is use less., injuritMs, and rotatory to the laws of the kingdom. In fine, he would have seen that the . august Congress, in ibis purely political question, has acted in virtue of its sovereign authority, without injuring, in any way whatever, the rights of the Holy Vather, or, much lesS, thoSe of the 'Catholic Church ;. so that they might, either now or in future, be in need of the remonstrances of Nuneiri 'or Councils. But the private letters which under the same date as the note were .written by the Most .Ite verend Archbishop of. Nicea, and the fact of his haring mentioned therein that he forward'echt • to - monstrance to the Governmenr upon the.snlieet, are circumstances which clearly prove, thai whilst be betrayed the secrecy which he himself reconr mended, he aimed not merely to avoid the charge of negligence in the fulfilment of his office, hut rather to raise in the pious Clergy of Spain, and by their means in the people at large, a distrust of the temporal antlicritie...; which he thus strove to decry; find to check their influence over a class of the State; the members of which, by reason of th.,ir conspicuous rank, ought to be true samples of subordination and obedience.' • This nulooked for behaViimr of the Most Reve rend Nuncio has comprontised the honour of the National Congress., the security of the kingdom, • the' authority of the Episcopal Order, the true rights of the Roman Pontiff, and the respect which is dike to the Church He, nn the one hand, ac ' knoWledges in his note the: authority of the Cortes • whilst on the other, by means of a Secreticorre spOudence, he sows distiffectitin and insubordi pationamongst the Spanisli Clergv. the.clia . racier of .. a public 14.,!way, he : • makes applioa tian to - the Supreme Govermnneut, claiming for re dress; as an individual Prelate, he sprekids private letters tending to the discretOt of that very same Government: When addressimf the - re gency, he eimjares the zeal of the - Alini•3ters of Religion and when F:peat;ing to thw.ci.liatstet's; be hisults tloit s;sme rclOon, by nial,hig'it toitl to fornent the insubordination which-It condemns. With the Government, henssumes the chainett*of Delegate of the Holy Father, who is thereby to be supposed to be incapable of Making au ill use of his mission; with the subjects of that GOVQIII - he becomes an intrigoer, 4 secret agent, - teody to j4ive them private intelligence of the,prO ,re-s of iliac disobedience at which he iS the pro .toter `amid fosterer. As a Nuncio or his hiOliness, he affects on eager desire for the coueord.of the Empire mid the Priesthood as au Archbishop, be strives to thitst astinder the ohly,toticli which keep them toge(tter.

'1 he imai;iieLition canhardly..encompiiss the mass of evils to wliieh he has enposil our afflicted nation by such ;•iit utiliehyd of step. 'The - letters imply that he had previonS notice of.the resistuniie Which the Chapter ainl thd Vicars c.f . Were tr, Inake+ot tie object (it those dilatory measure which Ilishopc, 100. 1 ' ri!- sident in this town had agreed to adopt, as '0.,!1 as of, other steps which Wer.o in contemplittion;teNd nig to confirm that resistance, and ci spread it over the kingdom. The plan being one, th - 4 inte rest the same, the ineasuies' eyory .goes, it evidently appears, that the elects of the co-operation anti support Of the ite‘.•crendNuncio must have been fatal to the P,cpres'2ltative Body, and to the Government on which the nation re poses its hopes of independence. The Spanish people are fully aware, that the decrees of the Courts have no . other scope but the combined support of :the Catholic Faith, and the . . temporal prosperity . of the kingdom. To shake this lust co r vietion, and blast all the hopes which are grafted on it, was the object' of those letters, and tuose injunctions Of screcy; with which the most :Reverend Nuncio) supported the schemes of the Chapter of Clidiz. This mustrio,ils personage has, therefore,' been • Niilllting to the rules, of his ( ace, to the cons id era ti on d ue t o th e National CongresS, and to the conf'idence with which as Ca tholic nation has sheltered him in its bosom—a nation which, now, more than Cl . 'Qr . , requires the most perfect internal union, if she Is to hope for success in her struggle with tyranny. He has, besides, done 41 great injury to the Christian re ligion, whose interests he pretends to prOmote, by inducing' the loyal 'and peaceful . Spanialds tti dis affection and resistance. Neither is the ofleuce slight with regard to the Holy Father, whose dis approbation of a conduct • so openly at variance with the Gospel, is ensured by his heroic virtues. That Man insults' the' religious principles of the Pope, who can suppose him capable 0:: asserting, in a foreign kingdom, the pretensions of. his Court—nay, even its undoubted rights,—hy eft- COUr114:11:: rebellion amongst the - people. Tha false step of the most Reverend Nuncio is one of 'the greatest evils which the captivity of the Holy Father hits produced to our tibias, nation : and nothing but the special care of Providence could prevent fatal consequences. But such has been the 'Loyalty and obedience of the Bishops and the Chapters of Spain, that they have adopted The apparently uncivil course of not event answering the Nuncio's letters. • Flowerer, this is not enough to appease my mind. The dame, which has been (.fuencbert sd luckily, might be raised at another time; and they Might east) at some opportunity of imposing upon the loyalty and exalted piety of our it:rtion : and I ‘sholOd be worthy of the trnst which that na'- tion hlv reposed upon' me, it I did not provide Agrtimt such I 'should nut wink at 1-11 to Spam ii Bishop, I Will not suffer hi a ii. reign Prelate, who. so ' requites the hirspitality hod generosity of the Spoiards. I am ready to excise the errors of what some people are willing to call policy . ; brit I cannot dissemble .to • utyielf that any 'degree of conniv ancer,in this particular instance would be flighty • criminal, both from the injustice' of the act and the ruinous consequences which it might bring upon the country. • ' • I bear in phut the unwearied zeal with which our AlonarchS have defended their o vu authority against the pretensions of the Court •(),f Rome.;, Thetnerestispician that briefs mightcontrrin sortie doctrines or decrees contrary to tho privileges of the Crown, has been - deemed' sufficient reason to stop their cirUlation until they are ekainincd and approved by ,GoVernment. 'Whenever any re, , laxation'apirefrred to glide - in on this point, Gci vernntent has instantly applied It• Steady hand to stop its progress. Our history presents very tiwv fnl examples orthis kind, which might have beett a warning to the Most Reverend Nuncio. A Go verninent which his been so jealous of its nnalien 'able riyhts is now doubly bound to take the most effectual measures aglinst agent of that same Court . , who, by means of intrigue and underhand praqices, encleaermrs to promote .and organise religious and political schism, Which might en 7 anger the security of the State: These reasons havellitised myloqiee : but, although I conceive myself fully'atithorised to exercise it on the Most Rev.
