[.,tire, I have been so fortunate as to obtain the especi id favour of the Supreme pontiff, Pius the F.4;glith ; who has, by his Eminence the illustrious Cat dioal Legate, transmitted to me a 'denary In dulgence fur the souls of all the. faithful ; and at the same time, in the bowels of his compassion toward t►iy misguided and beret iedl suhi eels, only delivered tl►em over to the secular arm. " I have directed Commissions to be issued, acrolding to the Act passed in the last Session, tot !he surveying the different Counties, and exa mining into the family settlements of the several estates therein. The Commissioners ‘vliont 1 have selected are all active Catholics, and approv ed by hi, Eminence : I have therefore lull confi dence, that such Abbey and Church lands as may have escaped the first enquiry will he detected ; being conscious, that to merit the protection of the Holy See, all the usurpations of the Heretic King Henry the Eighth—whose soul is in perdi tion—must be restored to the Church, utterly and unreservedly. " In Ireland, this holy work will proceed with peculiar facility *; as the title deeds of the seve ral estates, which heretical injustice has so long cecupied, have been, in that island of saints, stu diously preserved by their Catholic inheritors, together with the maps and other ancient records. The enactments of Elizabeth, of James, of Crom well, a Chalks, and of William, can no longer oppose, a modern harrier of two centuries to our slllCient right :—heresy must now take her turn of confiscation and forfeiture ; and I gladly antici pate the conclusion of this measure, unincurn- bvt ed with any difficulties, as the Irish Catholics h;rve carefully avoided all securities upon, and all purchases of those unhallowed possessions. " It affords me the most heartfelt pleasure to gate, that negociatious have been opened with his most Catholic Nlajesty, the King of Spain, for a union bet nem one of the infants of his pious House, ',lnd my second daughter, the Prin cess Aingdalena Teresa Veronica ; and still more, that the Pope has deigned, in an especialniauner, to illustrate the British Throne with the beams of his sanctity, by proposing the marriage of nor eldest son, the Prince of Wales, with his .Holi, neFs's niece, the Marchesa Agnes ,thstda Undtci milla di Bigotioi :—a blessing which I have has toted to accept with the most reverent and grate ful humility. " Geutkinen of the House of Commons--I hare directed the estimates for the services of the cur rent year to be laid before you - ; and I entertain too doubt of your readiness to furnish such sup plies ac may enable me to resume the tribute of the First-fruits and the Peter-pence t, which, in the Catholic ages, were duly paid by England to the Holy See ; and the regular payment whereof in future will be Idle strongest proof of a sincere abjuration of her late deplorable apostacy. "My Lords and Gentlemen—l cannot announce but tin h sleep regret, that some of my heretical subjects have audaciously persevered in the wor ship of the late-established sect, notwithstanding the severe laws which have been enacted against their.—l fed very reluctant in suggesting the ne cessity of severer penalties; but my duty to the Sovereign Pontiff obliges me to reco►nmend your unceasing vigilance in the suppression and pu nishment of all Heresy.—By so doing, we can alone °Wait; the favour of God's Vicar on earth, and his infallible assurance of our prosperity." • The following.- Manifesto was found. on Sunday, 7th Au gust, 1803, Posted on tine door of St. Werhurg's Church, in Dublin, the Parish Church of the Lords Lieutenant : " Catholic Viitoe. " We acknowledge that there now does exist among the people through this country, a determination to possess them sulves of, and- to transfer to their posterity, their ancient rights and properties; namely, the estates, lands, and church which the abonzinahle scum of England have, from time to time, plundered them Of, and which are now applied til heretical purposes, in order to abolish the Catholic Faith ; but let a wretched Government beware how they tamper with the Rek:lion-of the People." t The First-fruits, or -Innate:, amounted upon the several Sees in England, as taxed by the Pope's Holiness thereon, to the comfortable suutof 80,2891. Rs. This rate appears in the Pope's Books, anno 1537 —Allowing fur the difference in the, value of totiriy, it would, inn 1319, amount to not less than one hundred and fifty thousand pounds. Add to this, a full year's rerenuc paid into the same Apostolic hands My every Clergyman ; trekeing-at least the above some. Bishop Bur net tells us, that from, the commencement of Henry the Se venth's reign to the suppression of this grinding impost, a period of less than fifty years, eight hundred thousand ducats., of eight shillings each, were drained out of England into the coffers of the Holy See ;—only about seven millions of our rofidera money ! The %Wei-pence was another delightful tribute, paid to the Pmitifical Peter out of every family in England. A sort of Cathrylic and Apostolic Income Tax ; which the eight Henry: suppressed, and which Popish Ascendancy would of course revive. EASTER MONDAY.-Yesterday, according to ancient custom, several of the Aldermen, with their Ladies, the Sheriffs, Recorder, and other City Oilicers, assembled at the Mansion-house, for the put pose of accompanying the Lotto MAYOR in procession to Christ's Church, Newgate-street. At twelve o'clock they pat took of art excellent dejeune ,with his Lordship. At one o'clock the toys of Christ's Hospital, and the lit'idewell boys, to the amount of 700, arrived at the Royal ExChrtnge, where they %yalke'd about under the (7.)loiinade with their f e rieuds ;ill half-past .two o'clock, when the procession proceeded along Cheapcide, rnitild St. Paul's Church-yard, Lud gate-street, the Old Bailey, up .Newgate-street to Christ Church, where a most excellent Sermon was preached by the BiSII6O of Ox FORD. Before rt;*e . Settnolt, an Anthem, composed foe the occa sion, was sung by the bdys, and after .the Ser atl aceoaant of the progress of- the 4XF:rent . 11.ospitals`waS read. After the Church Service, the procession.(with the exception of the boys) tpturnefl in 'the same order to the Mansion-house, *here a most superb entertainment was provided tirr them. Several persons of rank and distinc ttio partook cif the dinnei;; and in the cvening t het e was, as usual, a splendid Ball. PROVINCIAL JOURNALS; PAPISTS. We have extracted the following article from The Royal Cornwall Gazette of the 10th inst. and while we feel much pleasure in observing that so large and so respect aide a County as that of Cornwall possesses the tel and political ad vantage of so sound and so well condocted Journal, we since-rely hope to see the 13ditors of all Provincial Papers following so meritorious an example, in supporting the best interests of Church and Stale throughout the United King- do ill : liONIAN CATHOLIC CLAIMS. " As the time approaches for the solemn discus sion of tie expediency of conceding to the de mands of the Woman Catholics, this important question must press more and more strongly upo I !he attention of all who feel any concern for the preservation of our present Establishment in Church and State. The magnitude of the interest at stake will not fail to justify us in this recur rence to the subject. " In our last paper we adduced the authority of a Catholic Lawyer, in illustration of the spirit which influences the counsels and the conduct of the See of Rome; we shall now bring forward a Catholic publication, sanctioned by the highest Eecksiastical Dignitaries in Ireland, to prove the sentiments still maintained by the Popish subjects of the British Crown. " The panlication to which we shall advert, is the [newish Bible, which hasjost been repriived in Dublin, with the following titles : " A new, superb, and elegant Edition of the Catholic Bible, published under the patronage of his Grace the Most ltev. Dr. O'Reilly, Roman Catholic Lord Primate of all Ireland : his Grace the Most ltev. Dr. Troy, Roman CatholicArchhishop of Dublin ; his Grace the f.k , lost Rev. Dr: Murray, Coadjutor Archbishop of Dublin, anti President of.the Royal College of Maynooth ; the _Rowan Catholic Bishops of Cork, Waterford, Ferns, &C. containing the whole of the Books in the sacred Scriptures, explained or illustrated with Notes or Annota tions, according .to, the Interpretation of the Roman Catlin -1:c Church, which is our Infallible and Unerring Guide in reading the Holy Scriptures, and bringing Men to Salva tion.. . - . . • " Two or three of the Notes will sufficiently show the spirit of this infallible and unerring guide. " St. Matthew vii. I. Judge not, &c. " It is no Christian part tojudgc 111‘ ,- )f men's acts which be in ti►emsalres good ; but to say that Judas or an Ileretic, evidently known to die - obstinately in his sins, is damned, and in all other plain and manifest cases to judge, is not for bidden. " According to this liberal interpretation of the Divine Saviour's charitable admonition, ' all are damned without retrieve, be their acts what they way, whom the Roman Catholic Hierarchy pronounce to be Heretics, that is to say, all %vim p!ptcss 3 religious creed differing front their own " St. xii. &c. - - " The good must tolerate the evil, when it is 10 strong that it-cannot be iredressed without danger and disturbance of the whOle church. and commit the matter to God's JudK went in the latter dap; otherwise, when ill men, he they Heretics or other malefactors, may be punished or suppressed without hazard or disturbance of the good., they may and ought, by public authority, either spiritual or temporal, to be chastised or executed. This language is intelligible, enough, the plain English is —We, the good, that is, the good Catholics,not being able to redress ourselveS without danger and disturbance to our church, will endure for the present the evil of your Pro testaut Establishment, and comfort ourselves with lie thought of your eternal damnation but when you mry be punished or suppressed without such Asinger or disturbance, y‘m may and ought, by public authority, either spiritual or temporal, to be chastised or executed. " St. John xiv. QS. My Father is greater than I. " If the heresy and disease of the time were Arianistn. we •should stand upon those places and the like, against the Arians, as we now do upon others against •the• Protestants, whose sect is the bane and disease of this time, " Can we have a declaration of litter and ir reconcileable hostility against the Protestant Es tablishment in inure direct and explicit terms than those here promtOgated under the sanction and au thority of the Catholic I-4erarehy of Ireland, whose petitions to the Legislature on ;he contrary profess such sincere and unsniken loyalty ? Protestantism theytell tis is the disease atAl bgne of the time; and that which is diseased and oanelni ought - , of course, to be ' , alloyed by the s:rongest,possible reme dies which civil or ecclesiastical pharmacy can apply " ‘lrhat would be the conserpleace of intro (hieing men holding such Aangarnary _doctrines into the Legislative Assemblies of the nation, and into 'lris Majesty's Councils, it requires no spirit of prophecy to predict. The Catholics would then have but one point more to achieve ; and having levelled all the barriers which sorrottnd the Th . rotie, they would scarcely rest till they had pro cut ed the abrogation of that fundamental law of the British Constitution, which declares the. pro lession of their religion incompatible with the so ve-reign authority." PROTESTANT PETITION. Every passing day serves more and more to evince the truth of what we, have already taken so many opportunities to state, viz. that the ,Cork, Protestant Petition in favour of the Roman Ca tholic Claims woulel do worse than shew the -weakness of the party and . the cause, that it would ptomotc discontent ant: discord, anti awaken enmity in a land of peace. Cork City and Liber ties alone contain more than 14,000 Protestants, of whom a. large proportion are persons above the common rank of life ; yet out of this grgat body, and the additional. numbers resorting to town at a crowded Assizes,-, all .the exertion of due and undue influence has not..been able to procure, in all. the places- where this ;Petition is :placed, so Many as 150 signatures 1!! But it may be .said, vo matter for their characters, their motives, or their insignificance ; they have not been formally contradicted, and. therefore the consent of.the rest. should be inferred---,sjlepee gives con sent. So- Mr. Hunt or Major Cartwright may procure Petitions for Annual -Parliaments and Universal Suffrage, and because their sober-mind ed fellow-citizens deem it -unnecessary to come forward with couriter-peritions, they are to enjoy the triumptl• of universal • approbation, because, forsooth, silence gives consent. In truth, a Coun ter-petition wo,old. be •full as absurd -in the case above referred to•as in the case of Hunt and Cart. wright, did we merely advert to any effect it way The following is, we believe, the latest intelli gence from these Islands :—A vessel, named the Macquarrie, Otaheite on the 24th of April, 1818, with a portion of her cargo, consisting of fitly or sixty tons of pork, excellently cored. In order to complete a full cargo of this, she had vi sited Murea (Eimeo), one of the Society Islands, where the Missionaries have lately dwelt, but had opened no trade with the natives. From thence she went to Huaheine, and thence to Ulitea, where she procured a further supply of the same article of provisions. She afterwards touched at Bolabola, where she received the principal part of her cargo, and after visiting Mobiade, re turned again to Eimeo, and at length complved it, after about 10 months, as she left Otaheite in April, 1817, and did not finally quit - Eimeo un til February, 1818. - The difficulty of procuring a cargo was extremely great, ()tying to various causes, one of which was, that the women are 'limy allowed to eat pork as well as the men, which formerly was not the case, and the con sumption is consequently increased, or perhaps doubled. The war that has almost desolated the main island of Taheite (Otaheite), in the next place produced a universal lassitude with respect :0 a property that was always open to spoliation and destruction, and of course but little stock was bred ; whilst the general state of poverty that prevailed, scarcely left the means of sup.' pew ing theMselves . . Their war was conduct ed perfectly upon a marauding system—bM•n ing and pillaging, but with the loss of a very few lives. An army of 300 waslconsidered a numerous force ; and although they .had a number of muskets, and knew tolerably well how to use them, yet they do but little execution with them, and if two or three fall, the main body immedi ately give way and fly in all directions. They have - a.great quantity of poultry, such as cocks and hens, a few Muscovy ducks, and a number of goals. The Missionaries have a few head of hotned cattle, and a few sheep ; but bogs and the bread- fruit con-silt-Ole- the - -chief depen dence of the islands. The. banana .seems to have been indigenous to the islands ; the sweet tropical .potatoe, the pumpkin, and melon, are cultivated with success ; and Captain Campbell has, we understand, during his late excursion, sown among the islands the loquet, the peach, the celery, and other garden seeds. Cotton is of spontaneous growth among most, or all of the islands ; and its quality very various. The coun try, which is . beautiful in itself, has derived luxu riance from its intercourse with the British na tion ; the aborigines, who but a few years, or in deed but a few months since, were idolaters, are now said to be converted to Christianity ; their idolatry is past ; their wars are at an end ; and under the guidance of their missionary friends and brethren, they promised to become a good and happy people. The inhabitants of Bolabola made Captain Campbell a present of their Deity, which consisted of a log of wood, from five to six feet long, and two or three inches thick, wish a num ber of faces carved ;you_ it. They parted with it as a proof of their reformation. — (Calcutta Paper.) EX ECUTlON.—.4lexander Robertson was in the list week executed at Glasgow, pursuant to the sentence of the High Court of Justiciary, for rob bing a warehouse. He mounted the scaffold with a firm step and a calm countenance, am , l, was turned off at his own request (being a lig'r'tf.ian) front a considerable height, and the -crash occa sioned great consternation among the multitude ASSOM blvd, supposed to be not less than 30,000. The unhappy sufferer was only twenty-four years of age, had been in business on his own account, and made a voyage to America as a merchant ; but, soon after his return home, had got into ,bad company. • ~,SUICIDE.--An Inquest was held yesterday, be . fore_ltromas SH BLTON, Esq. at the New Betblem Hospital, Surrey-road,. on the body of Mr. Joseph Wells, late of _lslington. - The deceased was very much deranged at times, and frequently had lucid . inlet yak. Ile put a period to his existence by hanging, himself. Verdict—" The deceased ,de stroy,d himself, being insane at the time." A - dreadful accident happened at Bridlington Quay, about half-past seven o'clock on ‘Vednes- . day evening last. ln the course of the day, Cap tain GRIFFIN, of the Swan revenue cutter, had come on shore, the weather being. at that time favourable ; but during the afternoon a smart breeze blew in front the sea, which as the even ing approached increased to . a storm. At the time fixed for their return, the Captain and seven of his crew stepped into their boat and pushed off :for the ship ; but they had scarcely cleared the shore before they were dashed with awful vio , lence.against the pier, and in.a.moment the boat was shivered to atoms. Four of the crew.saved their lives by clinging to piles in the pier, but the Captain. and three of his men, one of whom was his.black servant, proved less fortunate, and sunk to xis& no. more. _ _ Last week a young man, named Peter Caulfield, happened to be on the mountain; of Kilrooney, in the neighbourhood:of Ross-trevor, where he saw a large eagle alight and take up a lamb in its talons, and carry it away in a low and straight direction towards the mountains of Mourne. The young man pursued it, and still kept in view ; at length, being unable to ,soar up the opposite mountain with its prey, it.dropped it at the tour of Ross-trevor Wood, not Jar distant from the Quay, quite unhurt ; the lamb is still living and doing well, Whilst carrying the lamb, the length of the eagle's flight, in its various windings, was upwards of two miles.
