DEBATE on the Bill for abolishing the Mint.
In Committee of the whole, L. R. Morris in the chair.
Mr. Giles observed that when he had laid certain resolutions on the table respecting this subject, it was said the House had not sufficient information on which to act. To obtain this information he had suffered them to lay. The information is now received. He believed that information would satisfy the House of the little utility of the Mint. He believed that from the effects of a peace in Europe, we should have silver enough, and that we really had copper enough to serve for several years. There was another circumstance, which made it necessary for the House to act on the subject this session. After the 3d of March the establishment will have to be moved to this place. There was also another reason for acting. The director states the implements to be considerably out of order. Rather than incur the expense of these repairs, he thought it best for the United States to disassemble themselves of this expense, and save an annual sum of 20,000 dollars. This would also afford a relief to the revenue after repealing the internal taxes.
The committee rose, and reported the bill without amendment.
The report of the committee was immediately taken up.
Mr. Smith. When this subject was formerly before the house, I said that the gentleman from Virginia was warranted in saying, that the gold coin of the United States was finer than some other in circulation—for the director of the mint, in his report for 1800, stated the American gold to be 27.42 dollars on 1000 penny weights finer than the Spanish doubloon; that the same report stated the expense of the mint establishment at 20,986 dollars, the gain on copper for the same year, 5,959 dollars, leaving the real cost of the mint for that year 15,027 dollars—the whole copper coin for 1800 being only 29,279 dollars, from which it will appear that each cent (as was understood) would cost the United States half a dollar—this however was on the presumption that little gold or silver would in future be offered for coinage. In answer a gentleman from Connecticut (Mr. Dana) said, that I was mistaken if I meant to say that each cent had cost the United States half a dollar, that if I had said each dollar's worth of cents had cost half a dollar I should have been more correct. In answer I said that every gentleman must have seen from the statement I gave in figures of the quantity coined and the cost of the mint establishment for a year, that I meant to say that each dollar's worth of cents had cost half a dollar, and that if I had said otherwise, it ought to have been considered as a 'lapsus linguae', and not as an attempt to mislead.
I have considered it proper, in justice to myself, to repeat what I had said on a former occasion on the same subject, because the reporter of that debate had been extremely inaccurate, owing perhaps to his not being accustomed to the taking of debates. It will be remembered that a similar mistake to that made by me, had been made the same day by the gentleman from Connecticut (Mr. Griswold) from Delaware (Mr. Bayard) and from Virginia (Mr. Giles). Indeed it was not easy to avoid such mistakes in the warmth of debate.
I have now before me the last report of the director of the mint, by which I am confirmed in my former opinion, the expense of the establishment has exceeded, even my expectations as to the cents: again I repeat what I formerly said—that the secretary of the treasury may be empowered to contract with the bank, or with individuals of the United States, who shall be obliged to stamp the cents within the United States,
for the quantity required annually. I observe that the director imports from England the planchettes, or pieces the size of the cent, and stamps them at the mint; the same will be done by the banks or individuals without any cost or charge on the government, and we may put down an establishment that has cost the United States 30,000 dollars per annum.
Mr. Dana. The gentleman from Maryland, I presume, has reference to me. I have a tolerable recollection of what passed on that occasion, though not a complete one, and I conceive the statement of the gentleman from Maryland (Mr. S. Smith) to be perfectly correct. It will be recollected that after the same mistake had been made by my colleague, and other gentlemen, that I rose and said I was perfectly satisfied that when the gentlemen from Maryland said that each cent had cost the United States half a dollar, it was a mistake, and made without any intention whatever of misleading the judgment of the House.
As some observations have been made on the coinage of the precious metals as symbols of royalty, and as an idea has been thrown out that the copper coinage ought to be collected in foreign countries, I will refer to the report of the then secretary of state, to show the ideas which he entertained on this subject. [Mr. Dana here quoted this document.] I consider this as a complete answer to the coins being made in a foreign country.
But my great objection is that the bill destroys the whole establishment; and that it does this in so instantaneous a manner that it is scarcely possible to sell to the least advantage the implements of the institution; and because the copper coinage is rather a source of profit than loss, as government may give this description of coins a value far beyond the current price of the metal. I am not tenacious of the whole establishment; but I should wish to see some provision, at least for a copper coinage, made before the whole establishment is broken down. As to the law for fixing the mint at Philadelphia expiring next session, that can be very easily obviated. To do this it will be only necessary to continue in force the act lately passed for keeping the mint at Philadelphia.
Mr. Giles said that all gentlemen united in opinion that this establishment could only be maintained by a heavy charge to the government. And if we turn to the report of the director, we will find that he himself supposes the gold & silver coinage not now necessary. This is the most expensive part of the system. We must, then, if we keep up the institution, expend annually 20,000 dollars, and find that after the expenditure there is very little to be done.
As to the expense of the copper coinage as stated by gentlemen it is a mere estimate; whereas the fact is that about 30,000 dollars a year have been expended for 10 years; why continue this expense? To coin bullion when we have no bullion to coin.
The gentleman from Connecticut has read an extract from the report of the Secretary of State (the now President) and he infers an opinion of that character that coining precious metals is an act of national sovereignty. I suppose not to do it, is also an act of sovereignty. The truth is, the sovereignty consists merely in the power to do or not to do it. I suppose gentlemen are for laying out 30,000 dollars annually, barely to show that such a power exists. I believe there is another act of dignified national sovereignty, the act of putting whithersoever laws; national sovereignty in this case does not consist in making the impression of our laws ourselves, but in having the power to direct it to be done. It would be extraordinary, if in this case as the other, we were to lay out 30,000 dollars to show that we possess this attribute of national sovereignty. As to the expending thousands of dollars, every body knows we do that every day on a liberal scale. That, therefore, is no argument with me.
As to the copper coins, I am told there is no deficiency of them. They are, I believe, of very little consequence where I live, for the people won't take them. But I believe there is a sufficient quantity for the country. But if not this bill does not preclude the obtaining more. I have no objection to making a contract with the bank to supply us with cents, and I believe it may be done in this way without costing us a dollar. The gentleman from Connecticut states the profit
that may be derived from depreciating the coin. This, it is true, has often been tried, but it has generally failed. It certainly could not be far extended; for it would soon be discovered to be a mere cheat.
As far as the institution has heretofore gone, out of 30,000 annually expended about 5000 dollars has been saved by the copper coin: I believe that profit will induce the bank to undertake the coinage. At present the copper coin is impressed on the metal of the same size that is imported here—and the only thing done here is to make the impression. This the bank can do as well as the government.
Mr. Giles said he believed the idea of the gentleman from Maryland (Mr. S. Smith) correctly that our gold coin was so pure that it had tempted workers in metal to transmute it, and he believed this effect would continue so long as the present law existed. The effect will be that the mint will be refusing the precious metals barely for the benefit of workers in those metals. This, he believed, was the reason why we had so little coin made from the precious metals; and the consequence will be that in a short time we shall have very little of them. For these reasons he believed the establishment useless, and that the single question was whether we would abolish an useless establishment, or keep it up at an annual expense of 30,000 dollars. If, however, it was the wish of the house to retain it, he would acquiesce, though he thought it best to act up to the principles on which they had started.
Mr. Dana disclaimed all thoughts of adulterating the precious metals. His remarks had applied exclusively to the copper coinage.
Mr. Eustis said it appeared to him that in this establishment much money was paid for but little service rendered. But as this bill had been suffered to lie for a long time, he had entertained the belief that the gentleman who had introduced it, had contemplated the retaining some of the offices, while the expenses were reduced. Mr. E. conceived this would be the best policy, as there were men employed in the institution who could not learn in a day or year what it was necessary for them to know. If such men shall hereafter be wanted, they cannot be easily got. It appeared to him that every establishment is responsible for the coin that bears its own stamp. Now, suppose coin is imported, who is to determine its purity? We must have some responsible officer to examine it. It has always appeared to him very desirable to have a coin between the amount of bank notes and copper coin. Such a result certainly should not cost 30,000 dollars; he supposed it might be reduced to 10,000. He believed the time would come when we will have a gold and silver coinage, not from a sentiment of national pride, but from its utility. At present bank paper is very useful; but the time may come when it shall be thought proper to substitute coin for it. The idea of importing copper coin had never been agreeable to him. He believed it absolutely necessary to have an assay-master. He would, therefore, rather that the bill should not pass, if not amended; though he wished a reduction of the establishment.
Mr. Griswold—I do not think the gentleman correct in the view he has taken. I believe the expenses hereafter will be much lower than they have been heretofore, from the cost of the implements. But gentlemen ought to take into view the benefit of the nation derived from this establishment. If bullion be not coined here, it must be sent to Europe, and all the charges of transportation and insurance will be so much expense to us. If gentlemen will attend to the sum coined last year, they will find that the whole expense of the establishment is saved to the nation. If the coins are too fine they may be reduced; for there is no necessity of having them finer than the coins of England, with whom we have principal intercourse.
With regard to the expenses of coining, I differ from the gentleman from Maryland (Mr. S. Smith) who supposes every dollar of cents cost half a dollar. On the other hand I believe there is a profit. I have, indeed, no doubt of it. I believe government is a gainer from that coinage. I know government can render itself a gainer, as the value of the cent when coined is much greater than before; for with regard to the base metals it is proper for government to improve what value it pleases, as they are confined to our own internal commerce. Of course we may subject the copper coinage to such regulations as not to be productive of expense.
It is well known that the amount of the copper coinage is small. If the est-
tablishment is destroyed, it will be lost for ever, and this will be attended with infinite embarrassment to a certain description of citizens. Is it not then essential, at any rate, to pass this bill with some reservations? The great expense is an objection to the establishment. But let us wait, at least for one year, to find whether this expense will not be greatly reduced by peace—and let us postpone the bill to next session.
Mr. G. concluded by offering a motion to this effect.
Mr. Giles. I think the house prepared to act at this time. Yet, though I shall vote against the postponement, I shall be perfectly satisfied with it, if acceptable to the house. Nor do I object to a regulation to save the copper coinage. I rather believe this will be the better plan; though I believe this cannot be done this session, as it will require a greater knowledge of the necessary offices for it than we can possess.
I differ with gentlemen as to expense. I wish we could obtain a reimbursement of the expense already incurred. I do not like these ideal gains—nor do I believe that bullion has ever been remitted to Europe to be coined, and returned in the shape of English guineas. If remitted, I believe it has been done to pay our debts. I believe the value of the coin is altogether ideal. It is not the shape, but the intrinsic value by which it is estimated. I, therefore, consider the expense of coinage as so much loss, and infer that we ought to dispense with the establishment.
It is optional in the house to postpone the bill to the next session, or make provision now for a copper coinage. I am perfectly willing to give some officer the power of contracting for a copper coinage. This is the only thing we can now do.
Mr. S. Smith said, that he was against the postponement. He wished the subject decided on during the present session. On examining the last report of the director of the mint, he found that the whole quantity of gold silver and copper coined from the commencement of the mint, until February last, amounted agreeably to the report only to three millions and forty five thousand dollars. The coinage of which had actual cost the United States 296,957 dollars, being nearly 10 per cent on the whole amount coined. If the motion to postpone should not succeed, I will move to recommit to a select committee, in order to bring in a section to provide for the coinage of cents and half cents by contract.
Mr. Elmhurst said he rose to state the result of his enquiries. On making enquiry of the secretary of the treasury, it was stated that government had a great quantity of copper on hand, which it was found very difficult to dispose of. He gave this information to show that no inconvenience would result from having no new copper coinage during this and the ensuing year. The report states that the expense of importing cents is not more than 201. per ton. This is so much less expensive than to impress the coins ourselves, that I should prefer importing them.
The question of postponement to the next session, was then taken, and lost—Ayes 32—Nays 37.
Mr. S. Smith then moved a recommendation of the bill to a select committee.
Carried—Ayes 49.
Character of EDANUS BURKE, taken from the Charleston City Gazette.
DIED, on Tuesday, the 30th day of March, in the 59th year of his age, the honorable Edanus Burke, one of the chancellors of this state. He was a native of Galway in Ireland. In the death of this great and good man, the community in which he lived has sustained a severe and affliction loss; his friends have to mourn an amiable companion, and America, a patriot of prominent character and distinguished eminence. Fired with an ardent love of liberty, at an early period of life he abandoned his professional pursuits in a neighbouring country, and joined the American army with that zeal and fearless spirit, which ever characterised the energies of his undaunted soul. In his pure and elevated mind every consideration was deemed subordinate to the freedom and happiness of man. The first murmurs of the revolution wakened in his feelings congenial sentiments of resistance to tyranny, and
marked distinctly the part he was to take. Actuated by such generous sympathies, he threw life and fortune into the common flock of suffering humanity, and never swerved from the straight line of a republican soldier, with the glorious object of the contest was secured and America free. Though the connection with her, (to use his own expressions) brought him little besides the affection the inspired; though the changes in her health and appearance were often for the worst, yet it made no change in him; and neither in feeling, word or deed, from the fidelity he pledged to her, did he deviate a moment. When the memorable epocha of independence arrived, he returned to perform the judicial duty of a nation entrusted to him by the confidence of his country. From the relaxed and unsettled state of things, just emerging from revolution, and amidst a conflict of vengeful and malignant passions, springing from the seeds of those habits, superinduced by war, the functions of a judge were at that time both difficult and dangerous, and the laws not easy of execution. The political passions of the people, exaggerated by fierce a storm, did not suddenly subside. Before the fever inspired by the times could evaporate and the public temper assume its natural serenity, the administration of justice was contemned, opposed and vilified. Affectioned on the bench with colleagues of unshaken firmness, the licentious were appalled, and the disorderly reclaimed to just submission and obedience. In those moments which succeeded the revolution, when the war was over and before the public mind could feel, in its regenerate form, the force and restraint of laws; when too many were found to malice the claims of justice for the violation of freedom; when their arms, the instruments of their independence and companions in an immortal struggle, were yet in their hands; the personal integrity of the judge was necessary to the protection of the courts. Our judicial annals will testify to the world his conduct in emergencies of this kind, and how influential he was, with others, in restoring tranquility, in inculcating respect, authority and promoting general harmony. He continued to discharge his trust till his appointment to the bench of the court of equity, in 1799. In these arduous duties, to a mind strictly independent and scrupulously impartial, was united a heart full of justice and philanthropy. His perception was prompt; his attention strong and vigilant; his judgment accurate; his reasoning sound, yet perspicuous; his sensibility was not inferior to the best. To the accused, his countenance seemed always rather lighted up with the complaint of a father, than exhibiting the severity of a judge. To the innocent he was a protector; to the unfortunate a benefactor; to the poor and fatherless a friend. Large was his bounty and his soul sincere. They will long, very long remember the generous hand which so often relieved their distress, and the manly eye which shed so many tears over their miseries! In musing over these virtues, they will not forget the refined and delicate nature of his charity; which, while it mitigated want in many a sinking heart, stamped a higher character on benevolence.
As a public man he participated in the service and shared in the honors of his country. He was for many years a member of the state legislature, and distinguished himself by the opposition he made in the famous Jacksonborough assembly, on the questions of confiscation and banishment. He was elected a member of the first Congress under the federal constitution.
In the character of Mr. Burke the biographer will find rich and abundant materials for future fame. This short sketch on an event so recent, cannot do justice to the fulness of his singular merit—Even the warmest emotions of friendship, on an occasion like this, cannot summon together the diversified traits of his valuable and excellent life; it must be left to history. The most grateful trait to his memory will be a faithful portrait of him, modelled upon those circumstances and features of character which have rendered him deservedly eminent and greatly beloved.
His integrity was stern, erect, inflexible; his sense of honor lofty and heroic; his love of honesty and truth strikingly conspicuous; his reputation for all was universal—His enemies were like those of other men, but his friendships were eternal. In the great and interesting qualities necessary for the latter, he was inferior to no man—Dissimulation and deceit stood aloof at an immovable distance from his presence—Gilt.
* Allusion is here made to the Washington Federalist.

ed by nature with an intellect strong, capacious and penetrating, and a memory of a vigorous memory, his knowledge was profound. His acquirements as a scholar were extensive, classical and erudite. In the walks of literary and polite science, and the regions of elegant literature, his acquirements were equal and commendable. He possessed that various information which constitutes the highest accomplishment of the mind. These were always directed to the amelioration of the social order and the happiness of his fellow men. As a writer, his "Callus," his "Address to the Freemen of South-Carolina," and other productions, will remain durable monuments, both of the strength of his mental powers, the acumen of his pen, and the noble rage which agitated his spirits and shed his breath. The discussion was as interesting as the ground he took was magnanimous. He wrote for mankind, and seized with a master hand, the great characteristic of genius—simplicity. All will bear testimony to the purity of his argument; his pithy, nervous manner; the bold originality of his sentiment; the force and energy of his style; illustrating strong ideas—sometimes by pleasing sportive allusions and apposite expression, but often by brilliant and familiar imagery, and forcing conviction on the mind, by an eloquence happy and irresistible, but peculiarly his own. The subjects on which he either wrote or spoke, were always illuminated by powerful combinations of judgment and of fancy. There was something in him formed for great occasions and splendid exertion—in this place 'tis unnecessary to state the value of his writings—to trace them in their eligible effects, or to measure the extent of his obligations to the author—Politeness will readily cur approbation of his conduct.
In the circle of private life, his manners were mild and attractive; his demeanor affable, yet dignified—Satisfied with the means which prudence and a marked economy rendered a competence, he was utterly a stranger to avarice. The lust of wealth or private emolument never sunk his character to the level of those paltry passions, which in their progress and ascendancy, absorb our finest feelings, and too often brutalize our nature. His generosity was spontaneous from the heart; his beneficence was an effusion of sympathy, that happy illustration of selfishness; his humanity was real and unassisted. The estimation of merit or expectation of applause, never touched his tender nature, or for a moment obscured the bright lustre of that active and animated interest, which he took in the cause of the unhappy or oppressed. His may be called a life of innocence. Eccentricities at times he had; they were of an agreeable cast, generally harmless, always venial. He was the delight of his friends, and communicated pleasure to all around. The angry excesses of political controversy, either in public or in social argument, never estranged one being from him—He was an enlightened, liberal and genuine republican. In his company all party feuds were chased away by the lively sallies of an open, ingenuous temper, or vanished before the charms of his conversation. Such was Burke!—Peace to his gentle spirit!—It has ascended, and now reposes in the last and happiest retreat of human virtue—"The bosom of his Father and his God."

Interesting news from Guadalupe.
We learn, by a well-informed French gentleman who came passenger in the Schooner Sufan, (arrived here last evening) that from the 12th to the 14th of May, she was becalmed off Point-Petre, (Guadalupe), during which time he was an eye witness to the following particulars:
A French squadron from Brest, consisting of three ships of the line, three frigates and a number of transports, with between 5 and 6,000 troops on board, under the command of Vice-Admiral Baubet and general Richepaille, arrived off Point-Petre; and understanding that resistance would be made by Pelage, the mulatto commander of Guadalupe, they attacked that place; which, after a short resistance, surrendered.
The days after they took possession of Point-Petre, the troops proceeded to Baillaterre; where they met with an obstinate resistance from general Delgres; but were finally successful in taking it by storm, and in making all who opposed them prisoners. A number of the black troops however, retreated to Fort Charles, where they concentrated their forces. They were pursued by the French; and, when our informant left the roads of Point-Petre, the fleet was bombarding that fortress, and both armies were engaged in battle.
Our informant adds, that when the Sun touched at Montserrat, a short time after, he saw a number of vessels come into that harbour full of women and children from B. Basterre; and was informed by them that a great many others had embarked on board of different vessels, and had sailed for other islands.
The above fleet sailed from Brest four days after the signing of the Distantive Treaty, and first touch at Marigalante.
Table with 2 columns: FEDERAL Counties, REPUBLICAN Counties. Lists vote counts for various counties like Oneida, Chenango, Ontario, etc.
Majority for republican, truth, liberty and the constitution, 781
* The town of Romulus not heard from, the votes of which last year, were for federalism 68, for republicanism 68.
The above statement comprises the counties of the western district, excepting Steuben only, the votes of which last year, for senators, were, for the highest federal candidate 92, for the highest republican 64. But the Cayuga Patroons of Liberty, of Monday last, states the probable result of Steuben this year, at 100 majority for the Republican ticket. Thus has the western district, hitherto the strong hold of federalism, in this state, completely changed its political aspect. What will the eastern as well as the southern federal editors say to this? Relying on the spurious statements and unfounded rumours, circulated in some of the federal prints of this state, and sent abroad in congratulatory letters from Albany, they have harped away merrily upon the glorious theme of the "revival of federalism in New York!" We do not envy them their short-lived triumph; nor the pleasure they will derive from acknowledging to their readers, that they have been gulled by their federal correspondents. Re-
deralists, mentions editors, has not revived—it is not emerging in the state of New-York—but on the contrary it is deeper immersed in obscurity now than ever it was before; and is daily sinking in the estimation of enlightened and candid minds; and when the choice of senators, members of congress and assembly men, for the state at large, is announced, the honest confession of the federal printer of the Hudson Gazette will be literally verified, viz. that Republicanism has never triumphed to complete in this state, as at the late election! To the will of the people, we sincerely say Amen; and we cordially advise the Centinel Major and other federal editors abroad, to hang their harps upon the willows, instead of singing the revival of Federalism in New-York!
Boston, May 27, 1802.
ELECTION DAY.
Yesterday being the day appointed by the constitution for the meeting of the general court for the year ensuing, the gentlemen elected for senators and representatives assembled at the State-house in this town.
His excellency the governor and the honorable council attended, when the members had the oaths administered to them agreeably to the constitution.
The Senate then elected the hon. David Cobb, Esq. for their President, and Mr. George E. Vanghan, clerk.
The house after choosing Henry Warren, Esq. for clerk proceeded to the choice of a Speaker, when upon sorting and counting the votes, it appeared the whole number was 145, necessary to a choice 73—J. C. Jones, Esq. had 68, Perez Morton, Esq. 47, H. Knox, Esq. 10, H. G. Ouis, Esq. 9, and a few scattering votes. On the second trial the hon. John C. Jones, Esq. had 77 votes, and was chosen.
The legislature joined by the executive, then proceeded to the old brick meeting house, escorted by the Independent company of cadets, commanded by colonel Welles, where a very pertinent discourse was delivered on the occasion, by the Rev. Thomas Baldwin, from 1 Peter, 2d, ch. 16th verse. The preacher expressed the sentiments of a patriot, in language becoming the character of a clergyman. He did not prostitute the pulpit to calumny, but supported the religious and civil rights of freemen, with that decency which renders the clergy honored and respected.
It may be well to observe, that in forming the districts in New-York, for national representatives, it so happened the success of the republicans was not as brilliant as the actual majority of persons in that state favourable to the Jeffersonian system, would have commanded and ensured, had there been a just arrangement; or had the citizens voted for a general ticket. Indeed no other commonwealth could have given to many federalists.
But there is another point of view in which we must examine and consider this subject. In the last state legislature, the senate was not republican. That circumstance of course had an unlucky effect in the manner of dividing the state into districts. Thus by small majorities, the anti-republicans have fortunately carried six or at most seven delegates, out of seventeen, for congress. But in the present state senate, there are twenty clear republicans to twelve anti-rep. and the members in the house maintain the same proportion. The senate too is chosen for four years; hence all opposition to the present just, mild and truly federal government, is crushed even in its hopes in that state for many years to come.
PARIS, April 18, 1802.
Letters received from Berne, mention, that the French ambassador has officially announced to the Council, that it was the intention of the First Consul to consider the country of the Valais an independent state, as it was in the year 1798.
Letters from Lemberg of the 20th ult. announce, that great military preparations were making in that part of Poland which has lately submitted to the Prussian government. The recruiting service was going on with great spirit. The city of Warsaw alone, was to furnish 1900 men.
The following are the particulars of the majestic ceremony of this day, on the First Consul going to the Church of Notre-Dame, the installations of the Bishops, &c.
A body of troops lined the streets from the Thuilleries to the Church of Notre-Dame. Forty carriages each drawn by four horses, conducted the ambassadors, the counsellors of state, and ministers. Five other carriages contained the minister of war, the generals, and several other of the most distinguished officers of our armies. The carriage of the First Consul was drawn by eight horses, which was preceded by a number of led horses, richly caparisoned and conducted by Mamelukes; it was surrounded by general officers, officers of the Consular guard, and his aid-de-camps, all on horse back. The guards of the First Consul were re-
fed in blue, embroidered with gold—those of the ministers in yellow, with red facings, and gold embroidery.
The counsellors of state, and the ministers, waited the arrival of the Consuls at the door of the church. They were received at the entrance by the Archbishop of Paris, attended by his bishops and clergy—whence they were conducted under a canopy, where the Archbishop sprinkled them with holy water, and then incense. They were conducted from the canopy to the place assigned for them, on the left of the altar, under another canopy, opposite to the place where the Pope's legate was standing in his pontifical robes.
The Cardinal Legate pronounced a mass during the elevation of the host—the drums beat a march—and the troops presented their arms. After the gospels were read, the Archbishops and bishops were called to take the oath, which was administered by the First Consul.
M. de Bellegarde, the Archbishop of Tours, pronounced a discourse, which the weakness of his voice prevented our hearing; but which at the request of Madam Louis Bonaparte, will be accurately printed.
After the mass, the legate commenced Te Deum, in which he was accompanied by two orchestras.
After the ceremony was finished, the Consuls were re-conducted by the Archbishop of Paris and his clergy, to the door of the church, from whence they returned to the Palace about four o'clock in the afternoon.
[On the 5th of April, M. PORTALIS, on presenting the Republic with the Holy See, delivered an address before the Legislative body, on the importance and necessity of religion to the existence of government. Of this address, the Editor of the Daily Advertiser has promised a translation. PORTALIS says, "Let us listen to the voice of all honest citizens, who in the departmental assemblies, have expressed their wishes, in consequence of what has passed under their observation these last ten years. It is time, say they, (in the analysis of the proceedings verbal of the general councils of the departments) that theories should yield to facts. There is no instruction without education, and no education without morals and without religion. The professors have been compelled to teach in defects, because it was imprudently proclaimed, that they ought never to mention religion in the schools. Instruction has been a mere nullity for ten years past; religion must be taken for the basis of Education. Children have been delivered up to the most dangerous idleness, or rather to the most abhorring ignorance. They are brought up without any ideas of divinity, without any notions of what is just or unjust. Hence result ensue savage and barbarous manners, hence, a ferocious people. If we compare what instruction is, with what it ought to be, we cannot refrain from deplored the state which menaces the present and future generation."
The First Consul has appointed Etienne Hubert Cambacérès, Archbishop of Rouen; Jean de Dieu Raymon de Boisgelin, Archbishop of Tours; Primat, Archbishop of Toulouse; Jerome Marie Champion de Cice, Archbishop of Aix; François Davian Dubois Sanzary, Archbishop of Bordeaux; Jean Armand de Rouquié, Archbishop of Besançon, and Cl. Lécoz, Archbishop of Belalton.
CONVENTION.
Between the French Government and his Holiness Pius VII.
The government of the French Republic acknowledges that the Catholic, apostolic, and Roman religion, is the religion of a large majority of the French people. His Holiness acknowledges on his part, that this same religion has received, and yet expects to receive, the greatest advantages and splendour from the re-establishment of Catholicism in France, and from the particular protection made of it by the Consuls of the Republic. Having therefore made this mutual acknowledgement, tending as much to the promotion of religion, as to the security of internal tranquility, they have agreed upon the following articles:
Art. 1. The Catholic, Apostolic, and Roman religion shall be freely exercised in France. Public worship shall be restored, under such regulations as government shall judge most conducive to peace and harmony.
Art. 2. There shall be made by the Holy See, in concert with the government, a new list [circonscription] of French dioceses.
Art. 3. His Holiness shall declare to the titulars of the French Bishoprics, that for the interests of peace and unity, he confidently expects from them every sort of sacrifice, even that of their Sees.
Should they refuse to comply with this request, dictated by a regard to the interests of the church, a refulsal, however, which his Holiness does not expect, new titulars will be provided to the government of the Bishoprics of the new list, in the following manner:—
IV. The First Consul of the Republic shall nominate within three months following the publication of the Bull of his Holiness to the Arch-bishoprics and Bishoprics of the new list. His Holiness shall confer the canonical institution according to the ceremonies established in France, before the change of government.
V. The nomination to Bishoprics which shall hereafter be vacant, shall be also made by the First Consul, and the canonical institution shall be given by his Holiness the Pope, in conformity to the preceding article.
VI. The bishops before entering on their functions, shall formally take between the hands of the First Consul, the oath of fidelity which was in use before the change of government—expressed in the following terms:—
"I swear and promise before Almighty God, on the Holy Evangelists, to maintain obedience and fidelity to the government established by the constitution of the French Republic. I promise also not to hold any communication, nor to assist at any council, nor to hold any league, either within or without, that contravene public tranquility; and if in my diocese or elsewhere I apprehend that any mischief is plotting against the state, I will make it known to the government."
VII. The Ecclesiasticks of the second order, shall take the same oath between the hands of the civil authorities designated by the government.
VIII. The formula of the following prayer shall be recited at the end of divine service, in all the Catholic churches of France.
* Domine, salvam fac republikam; Domine, salvos fac consules.
IX. The bishops shall make out new lists of the parishes within their dioceses, which however shall not have any force till ratified by government.
X. The bishops shall nominate the curates. But their choice shall be expressly confined to such persons as are agreeable to the government.
XI. The bishops may have a chapter for their cathedrals, and a seminary for their dioceses, but the government will not engage to make any provision for the same by endowment.
XII. All the metropolitan cathedrals, parochial, and other churches which may not have been alienated, and which are necessary for worship, shall be put under the care of the bishops.
XIII. His Holiness, for the sake of peace, and the happy re-establishment of the catholic religion, declares that neither he, nor his successors, will disturb in any manner the proprietors of ecclesiastical property heretofore purchased by them, and that consequently the title of those estates, and the privileges and revenues belonging to them, shall remain inviolable, or their deriving titles from them.
XIV. The government will guarantee a proper degree of respect to the bishops and curates, when dioceses and curates are comprised in the new list.
XV. The government will also take measures to secure to the French catholics any endowments which may be made for the benefit of their churches.
XVI. His Holiness acknowledges that the First Consul of the French Republic possesses all the rights and prerogatives which were enjoyed under his Holiness by the ancient government.
XVII. It is agreed between the contracting parties, that in case any one of the successors of the First Consul, for the time being, should not be of the catholic religion, the rights and prerogatives mentioned in the preceding articles, and the nomination to bishoprics, shall with respect to the First Consul, be regulated by a future convention.
The ratification hereof shall be exchanged at Paris within forty days.
Done at Paris the 29th Messidor, 9th year of the French republic.
* Lord! we beseech thee take the republic into thy safe keeping.
Lord! we beseech thee take the Consuls into thy safe keeping.
From the organic articles of the Convention agreed upon in the concordat, for the regulation of religious worship in France.
Agreeable to the project of the law, the publication in France of any act of the court of Rome, or foreign Synods, and of general councils, before they shall have been examined by the government is forbidden. It also forbids any ecclesiastical assembly to deliberate in France without its authority; gives to the council of state the organization of redress and errors. The Archbishops and Bishops may subjoin to their name the title of Citizen or Monsieur, but without any other addition. No one can receive the rank of bishop under thirty years of age nor unless a native Frenchman. The First Consul will cause the candidates to be examined touching their religious sentiments. The bishops must reside in their respective dioceses, from whence they are not to absent themselves without the leave of the First Consul. Each bishop may have two vicars general, and the archbishops three; they shall visit every year one division of their diocese, and the whole of the diocese, every five years, and they shall submit to the First Consul the regulations for organizing their seminaries.
